Is it possible to overclock the Prevail? If so, which app is the best to do so?

LoL. Yeah right. Thats not my area of expertise. If you need some grilling tips and or recipes, Im your guy. I can make a great smoked pork shoulder. Ill leave the techno-figurings-out to you geniuses

Nothing wrong with being a Grilling Genius either. Here in Savannah, we Love our BBQ. Move down here and Open a Place! A few people still have jobs. Lol.
I think that, at this time, it may be possible with a compiled kernel to OC, but the guys that know how are reluctant. I don't blame them. The heat could fry your phone.
But who knows? Maybe not.

lol i sure wish i knew how..the transform ultra is overclocked..and boy what a difference..it only gets hot if you turn it up to its max..and even then ive never had it go over 93 deg f....but as i understand the prevail doesnt have the greatest hardware ..plus i am getting stumped on themeing so id never be able to make an oc kernel

I have thought about doing the restaurant thing, as here in Milwaukee, there isnt really any barbecue places. But I came to the conclusion that I really only like Qing for family and friends. I will give out my method for my pork shoulder though. (I probably should copyright this so no famous chefs steal it)
BBQ Pulled Pork
First take a half pork shoulder (preferably the Boston Butt end) and marinate for 16-24hrs in apple cider (not juice). Then when ready to cook, season with your favorite dry rub. With toothpicks, place 1lb of thick cut bacon all around the pork. In the smoker, use applewood chunks (or hickory chunks with applewood chips if you cant find the chunks). In the drip pan, place the apple cider you used for marinating. Achieve a temp of 225-250degrees. Place pork in smoker. Add wood chips/chunks about every 45mins or when the smoke dies down. After 4hrs, remove the bacon from the pork and place the bacon on tin foil and finish cooking the bacon on the space around the pork for about a half hour. Remove bacon and eat or save to be mixed in with the pulled pork when done. Continue cooking the pork for about another 4 1/2hrs til it reaches an internal temp of 165degrees. When done, pluck the pork away so its kinda stringy. Place on buns and eat away.

that was not the right thing to read when your hungry, but I'm sure there is SOMEONE working on an OC kernel

it would be nice if someone was...maybe like kouma....but i dont know from what ive read it doesnt look like many people are interested
Well it can literally burn up our phone from the processor getting to hot.

I got to say thanks now im really hungry.
Damn need you down here to cook lol
Ok About the overclock kernel. it can be done now that hroark has got the kernel to compile and work. However and this is a big one
The CPU this phone uses is the same one that the Optimus M uses which is stock clocked at 600mhz That phone is able to OC to at or just over 800mhz which is stock clock for this phone. So the concern is we may be able to clock at or close to 50mhz more but that does not do much, and depending on the cpu multiplier we may not even get to overclock it at all.
And what that means is (for any that dont know) your cpu runs at a base speed lets say 47mhz Now to get the cpu speed the cpu uses an internal multiplier in this case using 47 as a base that multiplier would be 17.
So lets say we are able to change that base to 50 take 50 x 17 you get 850 and lets say we could go to 55 then you get 935. now all these numbers are examples and probably way off. and we could be looking at completely backwords it could be we can change the multiplier but the base stays the same, that would affect the overclock even more.
in that scenario lets say the base is 89 with a 9 muliplier you change that to a 10 multi your now running 890 11 979 and how do you expect a cpu that barely makes 800 reliably will clock over those numbers.
the more I look at it the more I bet the second form of overclock is the correct one on the phone.
