Root [How-to] Overclock that survives a reboot

Can you give me some examples?
I wouldn't know what to change them to.
Is there a standard?

Also after I edit how do I put it back in?

If you are at 1.15 and 34
-if you want to keep the same speed, raise the voltage to 66
-if you want to keep the same voltage, lower the speed to 1 ghz

to put it back

-"adb push setscaling.sh /sdcard"
-"adb shell"
-"su"
-"mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/mtd/mtdblock4 /system"
-"cp /sdcard/setscaling.sh /system/bin"
-"chmod 755 /system/bin"
-"mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/mtd/mtdblock4 /system"

What will 11.5 66, or 1g 34 give me in respect to performance, and or battery?

Thanks

1.15 slightly better performance, probably not noticeable. 1 ghz at 34(low voltage) should give you better battery life. Personally I would get as high as I could go with keeping 34 voltage. So for me I am at 1.15 with 34

Hmmm, I am surprised that in setCPU I go from 11.5 to 900.
I cant choose 1g or 1.1?

Thanks

1150000 at 38 is working very nicely for me.

has ANYONE stabilized 1200000 or something greater than 1.15ghz? if so what clock rate and voltage?

I would say that I was very close to doing it
I only got two reboots the whole day with 1.2 ghz at 34
I am guessing that if I raised the voltage to 66 then it would be stable

OK so I reconnected my device to my USB cable.
Connections is PC Mode
entered: "adb shell"
got a: "$" entered "SU"
Looked at my device notifications and there was no request for permission.

Do I start with adb shell?
Is PC Mode correct?
Where should I find the request?

SU is not su... all command line interactions are case sensitive and must be typed in exactly as shown....

Can anyone tell me how I can revert to the default clock?
I followed the instructions earlier in full and every reboot (yes every) returns me to the overclocking input. (11.5 34).
I deleted the files that i put on the SDCard but after a reboot its still the overclock spec's.

My problem is hat my device is constantly rebooting ever few minutes and it started when after I overclocked.
Maybe my device doesn't like the changes.

Anyway how can I get back to where I started form?

Thanks

Delete the overclock.ko and .sh files also then reboot
