    So I installed 2.2 and downloaded the latest version of SetCPU, but the max MHZ my slider will allow is 600. I have it set to autodetect as well.

    Any thoughts?

    No, used to but outside of downloading 2.2 and installing it through Sprecovery, I haven't done anything. It's been awhile since I did the custom 2.0 ROM stuff, so perhaps I forgot a step in truly hacking this thing lol.

    I suspect the stock kernel that you are using maxes out at 600 and that is why you cannot go any higher. If you are wanting more then you will have to load a custom kernel.

    I recommend taking a good look at P3's kernels at mdw. I've been using low voltage 125/1100 and it works great for me overclocking to 1ghz.

    Installing a custom kernell will essentially re-wipe my phone correct?

    Not true. Installing a custom overclocking kernel does not affect any of your saved data or anything on your SD card. It just changes some internal software that tells your phone to run at a certain frequency.

    What is the difference between 125mhz vs. 250mhz?
