Root [Boost Mobile] [Kernel] Glitch Kernel (2.6.35.7) OC. 1.8ghz

She was one of my testers from the start. Literally as soon as krowbar and her started posting that they couldn't get an oc to work I pm'd. Perfect opportunity for outside testing.

And I appreciate it VERY much DTM!!! I hope I was able to give you all the stats you really needed, I gave it my best shot!!:p
 
Runs fast, the phone gets alittle warm. But how far can this chip be pushed and still be usable? Hell man my PC only runs at 2 GHz.

1.7 is the fastest anything higher and you risk burning up the chipset. Voltage regulation on this board is terrible so it cant handle anything higher.
 
I've got it stable to 1.8ghz. But there is no way to go past that. Its completely unstable. I can't see 1.8 being practical because of severely reduced battery life. It never failed on me but I'm still waiting on reports from the testers
 
Since I'm not able to push to github at this time, I'll be posting my edits in a zip along with the link to hroarks github/warp_kernel_26357 . In an essence gpl compliant.
There is already forks from the kernels I used as a basis or idea at my github

Let me know when you post this, I will take a look at it and see if i can make any adjustment's then post what i altered. That is if the edits aren't the cause for the ril/wifi/bluetooth issues. I will have to test it before hand, if it all works out like i said previously then it will free up 25-30mb of extra ram.
 
Wifi ril issues were improper voltages. I had them at first too. After looking at the triumph I realized they were to low. The triumph was way to high. So I settled for my own blend
 
I figured it was voltage related but was to scared to go very high. Didn't want to take any chances and ruin my phone. Lol but in the end my son did it in. Thank god for you guys saving me. Im working on some stuff for Beta 4 right now. But pm me soon as you have the zip ready and i will free up some more ram for you.

Man I went a little scetchy at 1.9ghz. I tried uping the voltage 50mV at time when I was testing some weird stuff was happening. No ability adjust brightness. Then severe dimming, reboots, ya, quick battery pull. And there was no resolution to it. This phone just can't handle the power needed to switch to that frequency
 
More comin later. I need to re download antutu.

We as a test group have been using that, and only that. Though those programs are usually off, using only one app give a general baseline to go off of
 
I'm glad you are using Antutu while not always accurate its better than quadrant imho

Quadrant sucks, I get way different scores across versions and with the premium ones. Its just off
 
Oc uses normal swap...technically this does not add to your ram it just frees up ram by moving unused pages to swap till they're needed again...the non oc has ramzswap (compcache) which when scripted compresses unused pages to a ramdisk and can use swap backing

Right, I get how it does what it does, but I was mainly wondering if there was a limit on how much VM the kernel will allocate and if anyone has noticed any speed hit while paging back into RAM.

Hey, with the right governor, 1.8 could become quite feasible for regular use ;)

I swear, the potential in this kernel keeps getting better and better! A little extra RAM would be awesome, Shin :)



Maybe the next release could combine these two things. Hmm... I can see it now: the new DTM/Shinru 1.8GHz swap-enabled RAM-optimized kernel! Now there's a release I can't wait for! :D

this makes me laugh ( HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ) i tested the 1.8 other then battery life be shortened.... no problems what so ever!!!!

Other than a front facing camera and a better screen who needs the Warp sequent? :)
 
Front camera is a waste. Had one on my evo and used it twice in a year. A better screen would be nice but the warp is good

It's not a waste if you Skype or use Google Talk a lot. Video calling is awesome.
