Root Kernel Kernel[1.8GHz](WIP) Module method also

no, i was using a /proc/config.gz config file, which should be a carbon copy of it...but I think I wasn't accounting for ramdisk offset when compiling kernel. If you have a github setup, you can fork the kernel source, add me as a contrib, build kernel as test for me. I have a lot of things to contribute, things done on the VaeVictus kernel for Galaxy Victory which is a sister phone to you guys.

Also...I don't have this phone, but I also don't have the Galaxy Victory or Stellar which I have built kernels for so thats not really a problem other than the fact I need testers.

This is a super old bump, but is this a working module at this time? I was trying to do this as a module as well, but using a module from another msm8960 phone and I could get it to load and I could see 1.8ghz as a max speed but everytime I selected it, the phone locked up. I figured I didn't have correct config in thermald.conf or something.

Cheers!

You have to remember that all ZTE Forces are all different,
In other words,Not all CPU'S can overclock very high.
One Force may run an overclock of 1.8GHz,And another won't even overclock past the stock 1.5GHz.

Okay so heres another old bump, but I'm really kind of a noob when it comes to this side of android developing/modding as I've only been rooting and making minor mods to basic stuff like changing boot animations and user interface sounds. I need a little help on how to install this kernel on my boost force. Its running the DroidSmith Force rom if that means anything.
Also I have ICS and was wondering how do I update to JB.

There is a thread in the All Things Root Section, and I beleive I saw the news being broadcast in the main forum as well. Sawbones999 has brought JB to all of us whom are less inclined in the Android Arts. http://androidforums.com/threads/fi...an-rom-public-release-update-from-ics.886408/ (way to lazy to make the link work, sorry ) and I really think that once you get jb up and running you might not even care to OC. Boot time is excellent, benchmarks are through the roof, and everything else works great. Unless you have something that specifically needs the OC.... well its your device. Let me know if you get OC working cuz I want it too!

Thanks for the link I've got JB installed and my Force is at an all time high in performance with benchmarks through the roof. I haven't exactly tried to OC yet not really sure if I want to now but I wouldn't mind

Will this work on the other roms for the phone?
I cant say for sure, and you may want to wait for one of the more knowledgable folks, but I do think it will work in stock based roms. However as I satated above, if you are running Droidsmith or the SawbonesJB rom then you might not even need it. Both of those roms are finely tuned powerhouses that scrape every last bit of function out of this considerablely spec'd device.

eg. I dunno...maybe :)

Link to kern
rbheromax, post: 6001843, member: 1109631"]I have come to believe that the Force has a locked bootloader. I'm reading the bootloaders calls right now to be sure. So far I don't see anything. This is odd because my kernel should work. :thinking:[/QUOTE]
