Root Does anyone know how to overclock the galaxy ace?

For now you can't overclock it because no developer has made a custom ROM for the Ace with a modified OC kernel, but it is coming soon in the next update of VillainROM

sounds good looking forward to that thanks for the info
im sticking with villainrom. not gonna flash back. running smooth!

do you think overclocking would let us download the bigger games??

As far as I know, the Ace CPU is overclocked as it is, at 800MHz instead of 600MHz in other devices with that same CPU.
That's a pretty common mistake my friend, the Ace CPU is a turbo version of the 600MHz one itself, but its not overclocked ;)
And there's not even any major difference between 600 and 800MHz.
So i'm expecting that there will at least be a stable 1300MHz clock anyways (considering that Galaxy 3's 600MHz CPU could handle one ;) )

And as for the downloading bigger games thing, i am assuming you mean play a bigger as in a game which takes more RAM, then yes, it will of course be helpful :)

1300mhz thats a big jump! would the ram cope with it? :eek:

with the games i mean the 2 that we cant get from market that are out now! stupid zombies & contract killer

how does angry birds run perfect & stupid zombies cant run at all???!!! :mad:

Overclocking means increasing the clock speed of your CPU, eg. the Ace has a clock speed of 800MHz, but increasing it to 1000MHz will be overclocking it and For now you can't overclock it because no developer has made a custom ROM for the Ace with a modified OC kernel, but it is coming soon in the next update of VillainROM.
if your phone has a modified kernel, you can download 'droid overclock' app from market to overclock it.
P.S. You also need to be rooted to overclock

you cannot FIND your kernel on your phone, you have to extract the stock ROM, use GNU to modify it and then replace it with stock ROM- now you have a new ROM called a custom ROM because you have modified it to your liking, villain ROM is one such ROM, if you wanna try it out, go to VillainROM Forums - VillainROM Front Page
And yes it significantly increases performance but it also decreases battery life!
