Overclock for Darky´s v10 RC6?

I want to overclock my SGS, and I´m running Darky´s ROM v10, Gingebread 2.3.3
Wich kernel should I use? Thanks in advance :3

I recommend Talon Kernel ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1057705 ). It doesn't have a few usefull for me features (like swap or compcache) but work perfectly. It's very stable.

Sounds good, but any chances on overclocking over 1.2 GHz?

If u wish to do that i'd reccomend you to switch to a cm7 based rom and install tk-glitch kernel, that supports overclock up over to 1.5GHz
PD: si, soy el guzmanus de eol, el mundo es un pañuelo xD

I had Darky´s v10 RC6 and talon Kernel and it worked incredibly.
Regards.

Actually all ROMs based on Cyanogen's mod are very unstable. Actually they are only for ppl who know how to create workarounds (or repair) some of problems. I don't recommend these roms and kernels. Maybe in June/July these ROMs will be enough stable to daily usage
From what I know actually developers of Talon Kernel are working towards increased overclocking. They created patch that support overclocking to 1,3 GHz but it was deleted day after (probably it was bugged ). I think we should wait.
Btw... Is it worth to overclock CPU? Actually all apps and games can't fully utilize 1 GHz CPU.

This is not true at all! I've been using CM7 for a week now OC'd at 1.5 without any issues. The only niggle was setting up the voltages for the OC, but other than that it's very stable and doesn't get the credit it deserves!
Also, the devs are very helpful and have their own Q&A thread if anything does for wrong (which for me it hasn't).
It's defiantly been stable enough for daily use IMHO since the 06/05Nightly build. & battery life isn't that bad either (~70% of stock) which I expect can only improve with releases esp as the devs admit the sleep code is a bit faulty.
I'm not saying everyone should jump on it, but I wouldn't just dismiss straight away. Give it a try & you may be pleasantly surprised
Anyway, shouldn't this be in the Q&A section and not development?

I used CM7 nightly build a few days ago and It wasn't working properly. I'm checking every week a new builds looking for "stable" version. I have problems with making a call to anyone, problems with mount external microsd card and more. I haven't tested OC because I don't need it. It's true that CM devs are very helpfull I'm still waiting for version which will be stable for me, and all features which I need will work properly. I have CM ROM on my old HTC G1, and this ROM was amazing so I still wait for stable build for SGS

That's curious. Did you check the Kernel wiper you're supposed to use each time you flash/upgrade? It supposedly gets rid of most issues. Anyway, I guess maybe I just got lucky with it working well for me then.

Hmmm... I will check again Maybe I forgot about it this time

Those problems you talk about are mostly produced because of wrong bootloaders, specially if you come from a gingerbread ROM. Try flashing froyo bootloaders and then using CM7, it is awesomely stable

Which rom is more stable for milestone ?

Hi guys am on cyanogenmod 7.1.2 and want to know is there any other rom more stable than this ? ...... How about miui because I love the ui of it ?...Does clockworkmod work with milestone ....................hey how do i change one rom to another , i mean should i flash the .sbf file all again and do all those stuff again ? thank you in advance for your time

clockworkmod should work. just make a back up, wipe caches, and flash.
Miui has an excellent ui but randomly got stuck requiring a battery pull and didnt really work well for most games and google maps. Also, the battery life was terrible. Multiple charges a day terrible.
By far the best and most stable rom ive used is the peter alfonso 2.3.7 aosp rom. Its a blank slate with a really stable kernal. Since i switched to that I havent had a single problem and it runs buttery smooth. Hope that helps.

he is talking about the milestone and not the droid so beware cwm doesn't work use open recovery. Plus you cent change kernels on the milestone because of the locked bootloader.
The most stable ginger ROM I have used so far is cm7. If you want froyo roms you can try cm6 or the froyomod.
Miui is nice and pretty stable but you wont have a lot of free ran to ran heavy applications or multitasking.
If you are changing a ROM remember to wipe data + both of the caches

Thanks for the info, what I meant is now that am running on cm 7 if I want to switch to miui should I flash sbf file again and I don't want to root and do al those mod again ...... sorry am a newbie at this, thanks for your time
Sent from my Milestone using xda premium

If you are already on cm7 all you need is to do all the 3 wipes in openrecovery (data, devalik, cache) and apply the Miui update zip.
You don't need to reflash the sbf.

Well I don't think Milestone kernel can be changed, for it is signed by Motorola.
I remember there was a 2.6.35 kernel when cm6 came out, with some issues. But now I can't find it anymore. It was once kept on cyanogenmod4milestone Google Code page.

Can you give me the link to the rom you mentioned above ( Peter alfonso 2.3.7 aosp )
Thank you !

thats for the droid not the milestone sorry.....
do thank if it was helpfull

I've found nadblabak's / kabaldan's CM7 to be waaaaay more stable than Motorola's 2.1 - never ever had a crash with CM7, at least weakly with stock. Turned my old Milestone into a completely new phone (I've moved to CM9 pre-alpha now, it's way cooler and not necessarily unstable, but rather incomplete and generally unfinished)

I found out after using froyomod, cm6, cm7, miui, ho no, that ho no is the most stable, featured and fast at the same time. Using 7.1.2, dont know about newer releases
Sent from my Milestone using Tapatalk

CM7 from Kabaldan works fine to me, and too much pretty with ICS theme.

HoNo
HoNO CM7 is pretty much stable and is fine for everyday use. Am testing the ICS CM9 alpha version right now. Its reasonably good considering its just in the alpha stage now. All thanks to the genius Kabaldan

Fastest and Most Stable Custom Rom

Hi everyone!
Just got the optimus 2x from my brother. Its still in stock rom. May i know from you what's the fastest and most stable custom rom for the phone so that i could give it a try?

Im using miui 2.3.16 + etana kernel with lite battery mod. No issues found.

I vote for this.
but if you don't use any video recording, CM9-Kang by owain already can be used for daily.
it's fast & stable enough if using default config.

I'm pretty happy with what I have in my sig.
However, I would test drive the phone for a couple of weeks if I were you. There have been users reporting very bad battery life that returned the phone and got a much better one.
So personally I would test-drive every functionality of the phone: 3G, wi-fi, bluetooth, GPS, etc and make sure everything is working fine before going for "warranty voiding activities"

+1
Thats also what i'm using right now, also with ironkrnL (80 uv-log-su-rld), Chainfire3D and my own sd-fix. But in cause of the missing hw acc, i posted the cm7 variant

+1 for cm7 kang by temasek (with stock kernel).

I dont see anyone talking about one of the best ROMs with all custom like features with excellent smoothness and best performance....Django ROM with Stefan's or Spica's Kernel....it virtually flies...
try it man....you will know

Anybody can give me the link for iron kernel for cm7. Thank u

watch the flag system!
You have to change the filename before flashing, i recommend to NOT use "jrnl"!
And never flash it with touch-cwm, it would kill your system/data partitions.

What is the difference between etena kernel? which one has longest battery time ?

To me hei1125 does an awesome work with ICS (CM9). His rom is called Nova HD Plus.

i never used etana kernel yet, so i can't tell.
i just know that "setiron" (the dev of ironkrnL) defo knows what he does.

I use MIUI, perfect look and very fast ROM, but you loose your FM-radio.
Good support- every Weekend a new update.
1st choice!

I guess question was about fastest and most stable ROM, not about "stable and fast enough". ICS on P990 is highly unstable for now. I'm using ICS for daily use and i don't complain, but there's always something that isn't working as it suppouse to. So at this moment CM7 isn't only more stable then ICS, it's faster too. Android 4.0 doeasn't even have hw acceleration yet.

Agreed, at this moment CM7 is much more stable and also faster, i tried CM9 but some apps didn't work and sometimes the phone was getting slow all of the sudden not to mention the browser was always crashing, im using CM7 now and its so fast and stable

You can use CM7 and see it flying, but without some of the phone features, like video call (I'm not talking about Skype or viber, just the native one), smart share, divx, hdmi video resize... Or you can try one of stock roms with the great kernels from here and have a full phone.

Thanks for all the replies. Will try out soon. Also, I have noticed that the battery life for the optimus 2x is so bad! With stock froyo last night, after just about 2hrs of some wifi and games, the battery has already gone down to 15%!!! That's how bad it is!
Is this normal? Should I return the phone to the store?
Also, will the gingerbread update and/or custom rom flashing bring about better life for the battery?

DjangoManouche 1.1 is highly recommended with V20q baseband and HP SR3R2 Kernel. After trying out many stock variants, Modaco ROMS, Thanatos and CM ROMS, I finally settled on this one as it has resolved all the issues I had with the phone and gives good battery and network performance.

Can someone comment on stability/usefulness of official CM9?

Nightlies just started officially dropping the other day, so I'm curious what you guys have thought thus far.
Found here: http://get.cm/?device=quincyatt
I'm on a stock ICS build, so I think I have to flash a GB ROM and then flash CM from there. Which is fine; just curious

Going by cm based roms as of june, it's very stable, definitely stable enough for daily driver. Issues as of june, shorter battery, possible GPS issues, blue tooth a2dp stable connection.
I'd definitely give it a try and thanks for the heads up.
And yes, you need to flash from GB kernel with Root and cwm afaik.

1+ I concur, even though I didn't get on-board with paranoid android rom until version 04 was released but it is an EXCELLENT rom! Maybe the PA team should get together with Samsung on making this rom preinstalled software for the next generation of galaxy note.

Never gonna happen

Are the battery issues mitigated from what they were?

on my device (ymmv!), after the basic tweaks (disabling unnecessary apps, syncs etc.), the standby battery life was not worse than on stock GB or ICS. During normal usage, esp. while browsing on wifi it was much better - the estimated current consumption on CM9 was at ca. 500mA on new ICS 4.0.4 its closer to 750mA in the same conditions.

[Q] Most Stable ROM

Hi everyone,
I recently installed android on my friend's Touch Pad. Which ROM do you recommend as the most stable/usable ROM? (While being new and hopefully rather current as - like Android 4.1 or 4.2). My friend is definitely not familiar with flashing or anything like that, but she knows how to use android. As I will be moving out of the state at the end of this week, I want to leave her with a good ROM that will be nice and stable and easy for her to use. What do you all suggest? Thanks!

Tough one just have to flash them all and test I would go for cm10 night lies because they'll constantly update it and all you have to do is go into settings and update it.

Thanks, I'm trying a couple. I had a 4.2.2 mashup of CM, AOKP, and PA. It was a bit buggy, and probably too confusing for my friend. She does really like the PIE controls though so I'm trying to get a stable one with those. If not I'll just go for the CM10 nightlies probably. Thank you sir!

for me, the most stable roms are the standard CM9 nightlies.
they benchmark higher than any of the 4.2.2 builds, and has working bluetooth and no UI issues as noted on the CM10 and CM10.1 builds.
every few weeks I backup my HP touchpad and install some of the latest roms and always come back to CM9. it just works better, and best of all, it has a better UI (while the tablet UI mod helps with CM10 and 10.1, it does not fix all of the issues. and for CM10.1 there is no 120dpi so you are stuck with everything being oversized for the screen
while with cm9 all you need is the CWM flashable 120dpi patch which still works with the latest nightly builds and takes care of any market place issues.
Overall for everyday use, CM9 is still the way to go.
I attached the 120dpi patch that I use. It only works on CM9

I've used both CM9 & CM10 and found them to be very stable.

If you are on CM10 and the 120dpi is too small, to undo it flash the 160dpi file
the CWM dpi patches are the only ones that have worked for me, I have tried android 4.1 and 4.2 and the only recommendations for adjusting the dpi is using apps from the market place and all of the recommended ones for me have not worked, most causes the rom to not boot fully.
The main thing holding me back from going to anything higher than CM9, is the lack of stable bluetooth support, the new android 4.1+ UI that is just a more screen space wasting version of the cellphone UI (not tablet optimized at all), and the issue with no 120DPI mod working with it.

Have been using CM9 for a long time with no complaints other than battery life. I think there may be some kernels that are better, but I like when the battery runs out and my kids have to put it down. A timer of sorts. I have not found a combination that can compare to WebOS for battery life. But, Android has all the latest stuff now for the kids, so, Android it is. I still use WebOS, though, when I can.

CM10.1 nightlies by milaq have been very stable for me. I experienced random crashing of the default browser in CM9 nightlies but none in CM10.1.
Obviously the missing Bluetooth in CM10.1 may be an issue for some but I haven't really used BT for anything.
