SOOO irritated, pls help!!!

OK, so I "think" I rooted my phone, I followed all the steps, got the ninja widget on it and all. Installed SETCPU, but it is showing I cant set past 550, thats the max on it, all I want for christmas is to set it up to 800, THATS ALL!!!!! What am I doing wrong? I know maybee im not to good with computers, but, I did follow all the steps. Thank you so much!!!

 

Make sure you choose auto detect and not Droid

 

You probably didn't flash the kernal. That part can get a little tricky. If you not good with computers installb a rom that's already flashed to overclock.

 

You probably chose Moto Droid when you set up SetCPU

It's very important to let it auto-detect, otherwise you can't clock over the default 550.

While in SetCPU, click Settings -> Device Selection -> Scroll down to Autodetect and press it.

It might FC, but you can back out, restart the app and it should be good to go.

 

I did do the "auto select", you guys were right, i had it on Droid, now, its showing my max now to 550000, min to 250000. What now? Thank you so much guys for helping me.

 

Yeah, you have to have a ROM that allows over-clocking first.

 

Where I get the "ROM"? Thank you sooo much

 

if its yourt first time watch these you tube videos they are a great help! YouTube - DroidReview's Channel

 

Watching the videos...

 

KEEP TALKING ABOUT NANDROID FOLDER, do I have to created? Or am I missing a program? The SPRecovery, am I missing that?

 

You need to finish installing stuff. These are perhaps the best guides (click on "start here" and read thru it):
Root Your Droid

 

Overclocking the Droid | Root Your Droid

Nandroid is the backup you can create after installing sprecovery, the custom recovery console, which is pretty much the first thing you should do after rooting. (The second being, reboot into recovery and use the new sprecovery menu to create a nandroid backup. )

Custom Recovery Image | Root Your Droid

 

Anybody in the San Antonio, TX area that can lend a brother a hand?

 

I'd recommend following those guides - it isn't hard.
But if you have to have an automated solution, you can always use the DMUpdater apk at droidmod.org (there is a link to that right on their main page). It will root your phone, install busybox, install the sprecovery image (which includes nandroid and the other recovery options), and then install their latest rom.

I'm in Dallas though.

 

I guess im not good at all with computers, I've watch videos, read all over, and still I cant get past 550. I really dont know what is going on.
