Root [Kernel]OptimusM OC stock 2.2.1

[t3084]

for everyone who is in here with a working OC kernel.

I want you to intentionally overcock your kernel and see if you can reboot into the OC kernel. without having to start over from LGNPST. ;1)


ooh also take note of what your default max CPU speed.

 

[blaxican25]

so has anyone been stable over 806 mhz?

When I first tested the first overclockable kernel I compiled I gradually slid the frequency bar as far as it would go until it crashed. My phone restarted without incident. I have not experienced the first boot loop.

my phone could have a really low threshhold for pain?? D:

I'm only stable at 806 with a cool battery.

reppard, in effort to help assist you... and to see if I'm doing this wrong what base address are you using when you repack the boot.img? cuz I still can't seem to make any of mine work.

I overclocked, on the teamchickeneater rom, I have not tried on the cm7. I never had a boot loop problem.
I clocked it to 825 I think, I didnt take a good look at the indicator and I know it worked on 806 as that was the good spot for me.
At 825 my phone rebooted itself, and then it came back on and was just fine. I DID NOT HAVE THE SET ON BOOT CHECKED FOR THAT VERY REASON.

Look guys Reppart is already suspecting what the problem is and why it wont work on certain phones. It is because he changed the stock max speed on this Kernel and right from boot its to high for certain phones. SO on certain phones NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO unless you change the kernel yourself you will not be able to boot in the kernels current state. Reppart is at the moment working on a new version of the Kernel that has a lower default max speed. This will hopefully solve the boot loading issue.

The new lower default max speed will not limit your overclocking capabilities as you can exeed it using Set CPU. The only limitation in this case would be your hardware, and you cant do anything about that, short of getting a new phone.

So just be patient guys and the problem should be fixed soon. Thanks guys.

I hope this has helped some of you with questions on what is going on at the moment.

Thank you very much for this post. (my name has a d at the end not a t I just got home from work so I'll be working on another build with a lower max. will be up tonight or tomorrow morning.

Hey I just sent you a pm, and realized I forgot the link, duh lol

http://localserver.no-ip.biz/Public/boot.img

there is the link to the boot.img, and by the way your pm box is full I tried pming you the link

 

[t3084]

i also suggest we call this kernel rOCK

I like that suggestion.

I am using 0x200000 hope that helps!

@Reppard Sorry about your name I didn't notice i had misspelled it, I fixed it though. And no problem the least i can do is try to answer questions on your behalf you have more important things to do

 

[mikekelso421]

You are very welcome. Did you flash the new one i uploaded today and test the WiFi? I need confirmation that the new update and wifi are working from someone.

i seen that the update was for ONLY CM7..im using my optimus for an mp3 player/toy right now so i am using the sense rom with your kernel.only cuz the battery life is better for excessive wifi usage and music playing.if it worked for the sense rom id try it

 

[thunderkiss65]

so has anyone been stable over 806 mhz?

I am tempted to crank it up a little. But 806 is working fine

 

[Seirren]

rOCK is a great name Haha!

rOCK = Reppard Over Clock Kernel

rOCK 2.3.3

 

[t3084]

rOCK

 

[blaxican25]

dam angrybirds Rocks on this kernel oh yeah fast as hell.

 

[new optimus]

ROCK is a great name Haha!

ROCK = Reppard Over Clock Kernel

ROCK 2.2.1

isnt the cm7 2.3? lol

rOCK

yup, reppard Over Clock Kernel.

 

[Seirren]

lol blaxican your making me jealous haha! lol!!!!

@New Optimus Yes the CM7 ROM is 2.3.3 Nice Catch!

 

[thunderkiss65]

dam angrybirds Rocks on this kernel oh yeah fast as hell.

My indulge has a 1 gig hummingbird. LoL I'm almost there on the optimous

 

[Seirren]

Yea but just imagine OCing that Humming Bird.......*Drools*

 

[reppard]

ROCK is a great name Haha!

ROCK = Reppard Over Clock Kernel

ROCK 2.2.1

haha, i like that r.O.C.K. it is

Alrighty, I'm currently compiling a new kernel with 729600 KHz as the max clock speed and ondemand as the default profile so we shall see if this helps any of you who are having the boot loops. I also added ext4 support. I could have sworn the stock kernel had it but those flags were not present in the kernel's .config file. I removed a couple of useless modules as well so hopefully we save a few K here and there. I'll update the OP as soon as its done compiling....I'm wishing I would have made my 4-core multilib...this dual core takes forever to compile!!!@

I have been eyeing the intel i52500k As much as I would love the i7 its not in my price range, the i5 will stretch the budget but it might be doable. lol
