Please read this before you ask about SetCPU!

No, you have to have a kernel that supports overclocking. It says that right in one of the first paragraphs of the thread.

Charging profile is the first profile in the profile list on 1.4.6. As for the device selection...no idea why it is the way it is.

oh, duh. wow I'm blind.

I've got a weird one, my battery is reporting 38°c constantly, and it's certainly not anywhere near that warm, but it's triggering the failsafe profile, so I can't use that. any ideas?

[Matth3w]

No, never heard of that happening.

I would do a battery pull and see if that like resets the battery sensor or something maybe

Hate to say it, but I followed your directions (including rooting and installing BB rom) and am still stuck at max 550.

<<edit>>

Learning curve, my apologies.

I had trouble downloading the BB from the link provided (would only get 1/4 of the rom). So I quickly downloaded a different version here:
Best Custom ROM that doesn't overclock by default

without thinking twice about it.

Bottom line, make sure you have a kernal in your rrom that can be overclocked!

Doah!!!! I can't say it loud enough.

for matth3w,

first of all, thank you for all the fantastic guides! i had never even heard of rooting before this morning, and i got bb installed during work today, it was a cinch!

i have 2 questions: what overclocking kernal are you using? initially, i downloaded and installed 't3hSteve 600 MHz' because i didn't really care too much about overclocking, but i wanted wifi tethering. after reading this thread, i really like your profile setups, and i DEFINITELY care about increase app open speed... that's the one thing that gets on my nerves on this phone, it's just too slow for my taste. i tried to download 'AdamZ 1 GHz' from your bb thread, but the link is broken, i'm assuming this is what you're using?

second question: i've already installed 't3hSteve 600 MHz' ... from this point, when i go to install a new kernel, do i need to uninstall this somehow, or just follow the same steps to install the update.zip over-top of this one?

I have my profiles setup similiar to the OP. Why is it that i can have my Max to 900 and my Min to 500 (regular settings) and it changes after a while on the setcpu wigit on my home screen? It takes a min or two but it changes to 500 max 250 min. Should it be doing this?
