You need a custom kernel that allows overclocking. You also need a unlock bootloader for that. Stock kernel the kernel your using doesn't allow overclocking otherwise there not much you can do.

You really need to read to op thread again. Doomlord already have recomedations on which app to use for overclocking on his kernel.

My advice for you: stay away of overclocking your CPU. There is many other ways to boost your phone. If you want coock your cpu then you can go for it.
sent from Xplay r800i [ROM] GB 2.3.7 max_power v1.0 by sechko, Doomlord kernel v10.

try using setcpu/nofrills to overclock, setcpu it has many profile option for you to choose from.

Yes, you need the kernel that comes with cm7 (if you want just the kernel and not cm7 you can still flash it, just download the pack in the cm7 thread and in the .bat file you have to run you must delete the middle two lines, save it and then run it. This will break the camera though).

When I installed my system.img back-up over cm7 but left the cm7 boot.img there it still worked, except for some sd card problems I also had in cm7.

The best thing about this unlock from HTC is we have a whole new bunch of people ready and willing to help others now that they've been helped.
Cheers to yourself, Gloris, etc.

Xperia Arc ICS Overclock?

I have used the DooMlord LT18i flash method to get ICS and rooted my Arc, i would like to try clock it a little to maybe 1.4ghz but cant find a kernel that will work, does anyone know of any possibilities
[KERNEL][ARC/ARC S]ArcKnight Kernel V8 STABLE - ICS/ Update May 1st!!
[KERNEL][ARC/ARC S] DooMKernel {ICS} [Rel:v4][Dt:22/MAR][FW:ICSBeta/.562(LEAK)]
both can be used for overclocking
thank you massively, i thought they would do, but am not 100% great at modding etc so thought i'd ask just to be on the safe side
You'll also need an app like this or similar to overclock the kernel.
no frill cpu, set cpu...there are many app who can do that

[Q] A simple overclocking question

Hi all
I have recently rooted my phone and have installed advanced stock kernel. Now i was thinking of to overclock my device but after wandering over countless threads gave up. I want to overclock my phone to 1.7 ghz, have have tried KA Xperia SSpeed kernel v7 but after installing the 1.7ghz kernel my device went into a bootloop and would boot after approx 30 sec after the lockscreen appeared. Next i went over to Doom kernel but realized it was only for gingerbread (i am currently running ics .45 firmware) plus i could download the files anyway due to some network error. I could find anything else regarding overclocking, so here i humbly ask again, is there any way to overclock my device to 1.7 ghz stable? Plus there wouldn't be any risk of OC'ing to 1.7 ghz as xperia sl has the same hardware and is factory OC'ed, would there? Any Help?
Thanx in advance
anyone?
If overclocking causes bootloop then your phone can probably not take the higher frequency. Not all can.
Also get this flashed newest software - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34244504

how come? xperia sl has the same chip but it is stable while mine is not?
PS Jelly Bean!!!??? HOW?
Ur bootloader is unlocked?
And btw, every phone is different. Some take 2 ghz without a problem, others get bootloop at 1,6 ghz. Also, overclocking isnt that good. its better to use a fast gouvernor and sheduler.
U can get jelly bean with a custom rom.

If you're unlocked then flash advanced stock kernel and then flash paranoid android 2.55, it's sooo fast!

Try using a cpu app like 'cpu master'. Use settings to find an overclock frequency that's stable. You don't have to use the full overclock frequency.

1.9-1.7 are the max frequencys, yes. But you use an app to lower the frequency until the phone is stable. My x10 had a 1228mhz max kernel, but my phone would only be stable at 1190mhz. Some x10 would only run at stock, no overclock.
