Hello, first of all sorry for my English. And now to the point, when I was using stock rom I had no random crashes and freezes. But the stock rom was like made of wood. There were no customizations ant mostly important volume music controls. So I tried many custom roms. All of them where instable for some reason. I was having about 10 crashes and freezes per day, really annoying. I was trying to find solution in Google, there were no helpful answer... So I was changing roms over and over, was trying to find stable one. No success, then I realized that most of them use same kernel (I think it’s squadzone's). So then I thought that maybe if I find somewhere a different kernel it could be fixed. And wola, [Overclock kernel 806 mhz Galaxy Mini] fixed all my problems. Now I run my galaxy on 806 mhz and there are no stability issues any more (most of the roms works with it, but for now I am using cyanogen mod 7.2). I am not sure does someone else has this problem, but if someone really does, try this kernel. And I want to ask developers maybe they could find what is wrong with those other kernels? (It took me about a year to find solution, I don’t want that someone else suffer this :laugh
P.S I found that Cyaogenmod 7.1 kernel is stable for me too, but it has no good OC feature.

wanted to suggest you to put [SOLUTION] tag in the start instead of in the end
who created this kernel anyways?? cause it's not squadzone's work...

I don't know, found it accidentally.
did you always tried to overclock your SGM on every custom rom you have used?
You think I wouldn’t have thought about this?? Of course I tried to decrease clocks, I tried everything.
make a backup of your Boot.img to flashable zip before try something like that.

If you over clocking it too much yours processor can't handle that. Every phone have his stability zone.

I like the stock ROM because it works. I think all I really need is root access and overclocking to have a good fast phone. What would be the best kernel to use with it if all I want is overclocking? Is not having a custom ROM a stupid idea?
Here's your ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=703267
It's basically the stock Sprint 2.1 ROM that's been de-odexed. I use it and am plenty happy. If you like the stock Hero look and feel, then you'll be plenty happy with this ROM.
I'm also using an overclock kernel. You can use the SetCPU app (available for free elsewhere on this site) to fine-tune your max and min CPU clock speeds.
Here's a link to a whole family of overclock kernels, some of which were cooked up specifically to work well with the above-mentioned ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705074
I've been using the regular 710mhz version of kernel listed for that ROM, but yesterday I loaded the 710mhz undervolt version just to see if my battery life would benefit any. Not that my battery life is a problem at all, though...in fact I've been getting GREAT battery life with the regular 710 mhz kernel I was running before.
I am using the same Rom but I seem to have issues with the OC kernels specifically for the Rom. I use the DarchHoneyOCV3 kernel and do not seem to have any issue with that one.

That's the same kernel I was using before I went to the UV 710mhz for nfinitefx45...DarchHoneyOCV3 is a good kernel for sure, can't find fault with it.
Forgot to mention in my previous post, the reason I recommend the nfinitefx45 ROM is because it includes apps2sd, which lets you put your apps on the sd card and frees up active RAM (hope I stated that correctly). I never worry about running out of memory any more. And for all intents and purposes, it looks, feels and acts just like the factory Sprint 2.1 release. When you're done with the install, just use your phone like it was completely factory stock (only faster and smoother) if that's what makes you happy. On the other hand, if you want you can install the SetCPU app and tweak it however you want.
Don't be afraid to take the plunge, parrothead. You'll be in good company. And you almost can't go wrong going with the same combination Tibedabeeto did, as long as you can follow simple directions (I know I should put a disclaimer in there somewhere, LOL).
This thread is somewhat different from others. I am fully aware that overclocking requires a custom kernel however with the Application "Galaxy Tuner" my CPU on my SGS i9000 can go 1.2GHZ with a custom Voodo Kernel not supporting Overclock. I am not sure what method the guy uses and he only allows it to be used 2 minutes at a time, so I was wondering if this would be just as risky / safe to do as going into a new kernel and doing such.
If the first is not possible and I would have to use a custom kernel as it is safer, please PM me some kind of contact information as I am afraid I will break my Phone as I use a custom Voodo kernel + DArkys EXTREME ROM 9.X
Still need to know wheter or not it is safe to overclock the way the application "Galaxy Tuner" does or if its SAFER to do it with a custom OC'ing kernel.
If last, I need some help over Skype / msn

I wouldn't expect anything, just because people like me view it doesn't mean we know anything about it.....why don't you email the author of the app.

Exactly, views don't mean answers! It can be frustrating seeing a lot of views and no answer, but you must acknowledge that viewers may be looking for the answer themselves or just plain don't know. Be patient.
Well. Still, I am wondering about the overclocking that The application uses (Galaxy Tuner) because it manages to overclock a phone WITHOUT a custom OC'ing kernel. Hence i am wondering if it is just as SAFE to do as using a custom kernel.
If not, I need some guidance as I dont know how I can switch my kernel and update my ROM
The code to overclock existed on stock kernel sources apparently, it was just commented out.
When OC in this app is enabled, the CPU governor is changed to performance, and the clocks were changed. So I'd wager it's equivalent in terms of safety to a custom kernel.
Why only do the above for 5 minutes at a time when a custom kernel allows you to always have an overlclock? Just use a custom kernel..
I'm using a custom kernel to overclock to 1.2ghz and my battery is exactly the same as it's always been. I'm also underclocking to 100mhz with setCPU when the phone is idle so that's a big help. It's perfectly stable on mine but CPUs can differ so I suggest that if you do flash a custom kernel with overclock that you start lower and stress test just to make sure there are no issues. Also, don't save any voltage control settings as default until you have applied and stress tested.
Also, make sure to keep a spare kernel in zip form and always have backups.
I use super optimized kernel. Though I am looking for a 500-1000 HZ OC kernel. Any suggestion?
I don't know what method this app is using, but just due to my own paranoia I would say using a kernel with OC is safer. Too many horror stories of apps bricking phones due to small errors or badly written instructions.
Beyond that, it just takes experimenting. I am currently using DamienGTO's Ultimate Kernel OCed to 1200 and have had no problems with it, but there are a lot of high quality kernels available down in the Android Development forum. I suggest you install SGS Kernel Flasher from the market (a great app, makes kernel flashing painless and dead simple), download the newest versions of each kernel that says it supports OC, and spend a day flashing and testing. Just remember to disable any OC/UV, lagfixes or tweaks between flashings.
Hi, I've tried searching but what with the 30 second search delay and all the outdated threads, I'll ask afresh.
I have a rooted N1 with Set CPU running. Is there a simple way to overclock it, and to what speed?
What settings are recommended?
you need a custom kernel, than you can put your clock speed up to the speed, the **** allows you ( 1113, 1150 or 1190 Mhz)
my nexus can handle 1190 mhz, but there are not many kernels for this speed
have fun with your N1

Sometimes misspellings are both funny and disasterous!
Most people say 1150 is the most you should run at for 24/7 use. I use 1113 on CM7 and the phone seems perfectly happy with this. Whether there is any noticable gain though is another matter
Thanks guys. Is there an easy guide to the recommended new kernel?
Will replacing the kernel lose me any data or SD card stuff or is it safe?
And will new updates like 2.3.4 come in from Google OTA?
Take this rom and you are happy:

2.6.38.4_AVS-CM7_CFS_20110429_1856.ZIP <<< with this,you would be happy
2.3.4? i can't see in the future but why shouldn't it come for our Nexus One
and sorry for my **** :s...i meaned cook of course

Will this overwrite my data?
I'm confused about the difference between your suggested new "ROM" and the new "kernel" which is actually all I need for overclocking.
Do I have to get a new ROM to get a new kernel, or can I just get the new kernel on its own.
I like to keep things as close to stock as I can.

I believe all is required is that you are rooted. Then you can flash a new kernel. Think as a ROM as a new browser you would use to use your phone.
And no flashing kernels do not erase any data. HOWEVER always, always make a backup before flashing anything. Better to be safe than sorry.
Thanks, so the best new "kernel" (rather than ROM) to give me overclocking is?...
Most of the kernels floating around out there are compatible with and made for CM7 or one of its Kang's / and or variants. If you are running a stock ROM, a custom kernel may not be compatible with all of its features, ie the camera may force close etc...
Do a NANDROID, flash a custom kernel and then test. If certain functionalities are gone, restore your NANDROID and either live with stock or try a custom ROM.
Try Kernel Manager from the market
So I flashed CM7 but as predicted the camera doesn't load.
I wasn't able to take a nadroid backup. What else can I do to revert the kernel?
Please help.

Hi guys! I'm new here in this forums and I'm buying my new SGS+ in a couple of weeks. I can see there aren't that many ROMS and custom firmwares, but the ones that exist are very good! I want to know if the official ROMS are fast and good for everyday usage, gaming and listening to music. I know that the custom ROMs like Cranium and BroodRom are super fast, but I always prefer official firmware. Please express your opinion and give me a suggestion. I have experience with flashing a SGS+, so it's not a problem for me.
Well, these custom ROMs are in fact just modded stock ROMs. So you can get some added AOSP apps and removed bloatware. CM development is really difficult as some devs already bricked their phones.
I personally wouldn't buy it again.
It's a quite decent phone but nothing special imo.

I know they're just soft-mods, but people say they're faster than official ROMs, because they contain some tweaks.
Yes, thats right. If you have some knowledge you could also tweak the stock ROM yourself as you like it. (Apart from things like CWM recovery etc.)
If you don't need all those Samsung bloatware then you could flash one of the ROMs you like.
broodROM

Thank you all for your opinions! I had a very positive experience with one of your ROMs, so I think I will go for BroodROM.
BroodROM RC2 with the Cranium Kernel v6 1900MHz
That way you can overclock as you wish with the "no frills cpu control" app and set governors + i/o scheduler.
At least thats what i have on my SGS+ and i'm very happy with it
here's a benchmark screenshot of mine

Hi Senior Member xCi, this is my first Time, and i think i should be needing a help. i have already bought my samsung sgs+ a couple of weeks ago. and after that i've playin games , browsing , used my phoneetc. i've seen that sgs+ still slow on cpu, gpu and when i play hd games its getting hot in a 30 minutes after. but not like the old samsung galaxy s i9000 which is very slow and very hot when i play games like nfs shift. so i figured out that i wanted to upgrade/update it but there's no officially released update for sgs+ in my software update (Over In The Air) and in kies. but didnt do something and after that i've been thinking and began searching xda developers. and saw many development were created such as the tweaks (awesome), custom roms ( like Cranium Rc9 I've Watched It on Youtube/ BroodRom Here) i was really inspired and been thinking if i can do it alone (im so scared besides this my first time) so i can update my phone into more poweful tweaks like cranium rc9 or BroodRom and other tweaks mods for my sgs+. im starting and im a begginer and i really need help, sorry if im being noob or kinda stupid (〒︿〒) i was really confused when i was reading this post by Artem Russakovskii http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...d-phone-with-rom-manager-full-backup-restore/ he says that other customs roms have different installing procedure. can i apply sakindia's cranium rc9 following the steps of Artem. Besides I've Already Done The Rooting Procedure At forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Plus/GT-I9001 For My Samsung Galaxy S+ I9001. this is my first time but before i start doing something on my my phone i should ask someone like you who can give me a better advices and other tips in things like this.
-----------------------------------------------------------I Was Hoping I Can Find a Better & Clear Instruction's Installing Cranium Rc9 + Rc9 Kernel OR BroodRom + Cranium Kernel v6 1900MHz for my SGS+ I9001 From You DEVs! Out There . because my phone still lags and very hot when i played HD games and sometimes slow on menu when i quit some hd games. Btw, Sir Ill Kindly Wait For Your Reply/Tips/Help You Can Send Me A Message Thru My Email: [email protected]
Hello Stefan,
I'm changing ROMs quiet often. Right now I'm on your Hybrid Revolution.
I like it very much - thanks for that.
Now my problem: My Phone is pissed when I use a Kernel witch comes with overclocking. If there is An 'OC' somewhere inside
the kernel's name, my phone gets stuck at the first boot logo.
Now I use temasek's kernel, wich is also fanstastic. But I really like to try yours.
Is it possible to create a 'STOCK' SymbiOsis? Whould be great.
Thanks for your great work.
PS - I still love my O2x.

Hi!
Have you already tried symbi0sis? My kernels have a special patch which restricts cpu speed completely to 1,0 GHz if not overclocked. Other OC kernels have cpu speed "leaks" and peek the maximum speeds for a short time when second core is activated,
Please try the HOC version of symbi0sis (not UHOC)

Hello,
thanks for your reply.
Yes, I tried them all. I can even not boot Your gueste Hybrid revolution with the standart kernel, I have to exchange it first.
I just saw that there is a new GUESTE2X STOCK "GoodBye" Rom. I will try this as soon as possible.
Thank you for something new to play with.
