Thanks man and trust me i have nothing buut respect for the ppl who are smart enough to do this
( i love noob rom and the opening splash i just i dont like all that grey lol)
Flashed OC kernel but speedtest reported a great speed lost, so restored my backup and speed returned, then flashed oc again, same result, so restored again. I think OC kernel override some network settings.

I always get bored with colors and find myself dicking around with them all the time. I don't mess with the splash image though because it's only on once in a great while on reboot so not enough for my time investment. I actually like it though to where I would keep it anyway. The status bar icons on the other hand is where my ADD kicks in and I look to change because I see it all the time. It's why I love the fact the MrBobo understands that about me and some of the others and made it compatible with UOT Kitchen so we can change if we like. All around rockin' ROM.
Apologize for my bad English, ¿lo escribo en Español?
Reporting:
Best rom ever seen for our Warps, each version is even better but this one is excellent, so good that is hard to evaluate.
Some improvements I like from previous:
- Lockscreen and other toggles
- Screenshot, Quick Reboot, etc in Power Menu
- Great improve in data speed (I tested it with SpeedTest), but not if OC kernel is flashed, anyway this rom have "natural overclocking"
very stable and fast, but everyone know that before
Rom rate: 100000000.... /10
Thanks

@MrBobo
What do ya think is causing the slower data speed with oc? Strange me thinks. The GREAT news is that downthemachine figured out the WiFi and Bluetooth issues! Any chance can get the non oc kernel you're using with this Rom in a zip for those of us wanting to test back and forth? If so it's much appreciated because I don't have it and if I do I don't know which one it is lol

This is my first post so bare with me ....I did notice the slow net speed when I first flashed the new version VI with the oc kernal. But I did a manual prl update using dfs latest version. This can be found in the all thing root thread. (Follow the link that is for update prl non cdma method) hope this helps because it helped this n00b. Thanks MrBobo and thanks Dtm. Keep up the great work!

Reason: .
I'm noticing a bug that must've been a change from n00bV_I to n00bVI on the background colors for text because on apps like group me I can't see the text writings on the notification pulldown. Otherwise, still runs great!

So what are the benefits of overclocking and how safe is it?
I don't want to end up making my phone explode while it's in my pocket D:
OC is beneficial in that it makes the phone run snappier, especially games. For comparison sakes and for an analogy, think of it like a car. You have a motor (our phone's CPU that's rated @ 1.2GHz) in a car with 300 horsepower. However, it can get up to a higher horsepower if you tune and tweak it. That's what OC does to our processor, makes it have a higher horsepower. It's the mecca of every kernel developer out there on every phone platform to find that notorious sweet spot that makes the phone a superstar. Downthemachine (DTM) has made the kernel with OC stable and without wifi and bluetooth issues and now it's just a matter of finding that speed that makes our Warp shine the best.
As far as safety, it's already been well known by the developers and the warp community prior to DTM's kernel fixes (THANKS DTM!) that our processor can be stable up to 1.8GHz but it will run a bit hotter and drain a bit more battery, depending on the frequency it's set at. The higher the frequency (GHz), the more the processor is working. It won't blow up on you though and many of us put in profiles in apps such as SetCPU and ROM Toolbox that will automatically draw back the frequency if a temperature profile is met. I keep my phone running at optimal frequency until it hits 43degrees Celsius, of which, the governor profile I have setup in ROM Toolbox kicks in, puts on the condom er profile, and lowers it down to a much lower frequency until the phone cools down thus preventing a processor or hardware meltdown. Some people have it kick in at 40degrees Celsius but I found that my phone gets to that point too quickly and that I can push it a little harder. Because ZTE has crap Quality Control measures in place IMHO, every one of our phones has it's own fingerprint on what it can and can't do and mine just happens to hate the init.d LoopySmoothness tweak and it gets hot quickly but the temp stabilizes at about 42degrees Celsius without any issues. BTW, what your phone will do when it tapers back the frequency when your heat profile kicks in, you will lag VERY badly until it drops below the temp you set into it for a governor. That's what it's supposed to do though. Hope I've cleared it up for everybody wondering about OC in the n00b ROM!
Just download the kernel and save it to your sdcard. Go into CWM, install zip from sdcard, find the file and install it. Reboot and enjoy
Wow.. didn't think it would be that simple. I thought I'd have to extract the zips and copy replace files... that's awesome. Going to update it right now!

Its like putting turbo charger on a stock honda ya see? Handle it correctly and itll fly. Run it ragged and tune it wrong and youll be sitting with smoke on the highway.

Overclocking
For you all who are asking about overclocking, I ran the 1.6 and 1.7 with no issues on my phone. I will make a few recommendations, n00b VII will include the oc kernel but will have some of the following things done to set it up:
sdreadahead script will be disabled in system/etc/init.d2, per dtm this is handled by the kernel when you are overclocked, at least that's my noob understanding
overclocking will be set to 1.4ghz, this is the max recommended setting by zte for this processor, I have found it to be fairly stable faster but to protect the phone's life expectancy I would recommend keeping that as the max I will implement this with a script
to do these yourself, go to post three to find the link to the oc kernel, flash in cwm
install voltage control and set the max to 1.4ghz (1401), save as boot setting (menu button)
disable readahead script by going to /system/etc/init.d2 and long press the readahead script, change permissions to read only.
Reboot and verify in voltage control the oc is set to 1401

When will noob VII be out?and is there a way to get it with out a full install?
I am currently running with the 1.7 GHz overclock rom, zipping along fluidly. When i tried to make a call to a diesel performance shop this afternoon though, i noticed that my signal dropped almost to nothing as it connected. Since then i keep testing it by calling my own voicemail with the same results. Anyone else experience this too?

Max: 1708
Min: 122
Governor: InteractiveX, cfq
Going to try setting to 1400 and reboot
Is the signal dropping or is it just the icons on the status bar? That has always worked that way for me
The phone call earlier was extremely sketchy. I'll try and make a phone call after work tomorrow, like i did today, to see if the results are the same. From what i read, Scary/InteractiveX seem to be the preferred governors for the OC kernel. What about cfq/noop?
