Root [REQUEST] Overclock kernel?

tusing

Android Enthusiast
Hey guys! :D

I have noticed there are no existing overclocking kernels for CM7/MIUI on the Motorola Triumph. Can someone make one? If they're too lazy, can they forward me a guide? I'll try to use my noobish tech knowledge to make one.

Sometimes you just need that extra push of processing power (whether you're running Ubuntu on your phone, or just want to play a game without lowering everything to minimum). It would be great if we had an overclocking kernel.

I remember Isaac's old kernel. Somehow it achieved speeds that were similar to dual core phones- it was amazing. If someone could make a similar kernel to that for MIUI and CM7, you will forever be granted with internets and cookies.
 
There is, it is called Triumphant 7, but it breaks the functionality of the front facing camera and some other stuff. Here is the link: Hotfile.com: One click file hosting: Triumphant_CM7.zip

Just flash it after flashing CM7 (not sure if it will work with MIUI...)

Make a nandroid backup first if you are partial to your current setup, as you may lose some functionality you like. That being said, I can run this at 1.9Ghz without issue, but YMMV.
 
How would you modify a kernel with OC tables? And make it flashable?

I know it's a complex process, probably. If you know any guides or anything, that's great! If you don't, no biggie.

Sad thing is, I don't even know Java. I'm guessing I should learn that before trying to dev with Android? :confused:
 
Well I already a Overclock kernel for CM7 but tickerguy is missing so many folder just comparing it isacc's, and i'm getting make clean and build errors on the files on tickerguy githun...
 
Tickerguy's latest files with the OC table from Isaac should work.

Edit: Quadrant scores feels like playing a slot machine at times. LOL. Keep pressing the Run Full Benchmark button and hope for a higher score...

Is this OC'd on the new build of CM7 b.07? if so could you upload a flashable zip?
 
is it possible to use the OC table from bKernel to get 2ghz on miui or cm7?

Yes, I think so. At least the 2 GHz showed up on my phone when I put it in there in a test kernel. But my phone can't run above 1.7 without rebooting so I couldn't test that--although it did consistently lock up and reboot and setcpu showed the frequency was set to 2 GHz when I did that.
 
Even though I add Isacc files, I dont get missing file errors, but I still get some build errors.
Ignore my post before this, tickerguy is probably right.

How exactly are you building?

Which defconfig are you using and what toolchain?
 
Config pulled from my phone then using make menu. I also, using the android_prebuilt git clone you posted on the other thread.

When I added your files to tickerguys, i don't get missing file errors but I now getting this error. Tickerguy said its my enviroment, but when I look at the main arch folder its missing folder I see in stock and isacc github(ex: there is no arch/x86). I get this errors(shortened),
