So I'm not saying that this will make your phone not "randomly" reboot or anything...
But, I've noticed that ever since Req's OC Kernel was released that people think that Setting MIN/MAX to 900 or 850 is the proper way to overclock, and since everyone's phone is different, you need to play with settings, and governors.
Now, honestly Overclocking a phone, and Overclocking a PC are different... BUT the same "Idea" is used. Overclocking on a PC raises the Multiplier of the FSB (Front Side Bus) to raise the potential of raising the performance of a CPU, with that being said, when you OC a PC, you don't set the clock at a constant rate, because it can cause overheating, voltage problems, and random reboots.
Same with a phone... Those who say they tried to OC and set the clock to 900/900 MIN/MAX and tried to have a stable phone (and failed), aren't OC the right way (Not that there is a right way but that is not the safest or most stable way). Every phone handles OC differently, so the OC may not honestly work AT ALL. That's understandable... But you might still be able to achieve OC by using On Demand or Conservative Governor setting the MIN low, and the MAX high can help your phone stay stable, while not risking reboots or overheating.
My phone is currently at 320Mhz/MIN and 900Mhz/MAX with the conservative governor, and I DON'T experience overheating or reboots.
Everyone's CPU can act differently, but you can find something that can work without sacrificing performance. ^___^
I know I typed a lot, but I thought I should clear that up ;D
This doesn't mean OC will work if it never did, but this should be a better alternative.
