Caution! Be very very careful if you are overclocking droid to 1.3 Ghz!
- Be very very very careful!
I read on a bunch of other forums that it caused their phone to be unstable. But then I thought, what the ****, I'll try it anyway because a lot of people's droids can't run 1.1Ghz either but it runs perfect on mine.
SOooooooooooooooooooo i installed it.
Low and behold, ran great for hour. Then all of a sudden FC FC FC then boot loop. Phone would boot up then 10 seconds later it would boot again. sometimes instantly, sometimes after a few seconds.
Luckily I was able to run DroidRootPro and auto install the 1.1Ghz kernal again and now everything is fine.
BUT also the 1.3 Kernal caused 10 FC's in a row to messaging service, then it deleted all my texts.
SO i would not suggest anyone try it unless you work really well with adb and can reboot into sprecovery > mount system > Use adb to reload a lower kernal. Even with droidrootpro it was hit or miss if my phone would reboot itself.
ALSO FYI I tried to run the 1.3Ghz kernal at a lower speed via SetCPU and it didn't make a difference. Boot loops!02-11-10 09:12 PMLike 0 -

My temp goes higher with it charging than running 1.1Ghz When I charge I underclock to 550 Mhz
Has anyone tried out the new TEMP Monitor by Taz that checks actual temp of processor versus battery temp?02-11-10 09:39 PMLike 0 - I only go down to 800 when charging, I could run at 950, but I'm just being conservative.
I am using TempMonitor, FYI it isn't Taz's app.

- I wonder this as well, I have my own separate weird issues that I keep to myself, but that's cause I get lazy and flash roms on top of one another. Weird stuff like my clock on notification bar and clock on lockscreen wont match, keyboard will not type when I click on it, gallery is sometimes multitouch sometimes not, and a bunch of other bizarre little things that only happened once or twice hah.02-12-10 02:06 AMLike 0
- LOL. I once had a virtual keyboard that took up only the left half of the bottom of my landscape screen.

- My texts have been all deleted randomly 2 times, one at 550ghz a week after I got the phone, then recently at 1ghz, so I drop 1.3ghz was the cause of that one.02-12-10 08:01 PMLike 0

AllDroid - View topic - Some random kernel patches for 2.6.29
Page 8 has nandroid back ups for 800 and 1000. He implemented a lot of fixes not present on taz's kernel.02-12-10 10:24 PMLike 0 - Here man copy paste through Droid.

"i will not give support for this kernal"
and i didn't see an attachment so i was like wth it must be private for now. (the kernel)
I didn't make it past page 5 or so.
haha I looked at his other thread too and didn't see any downloads.02-12-10 11:51 PMLike 0 -
Then I got some error 28's I believe when I stuck the boot.img file in my Smoked Glass ROM folder and tried to do an Advanced Nandroid Restore. So I stuck all 3 files from the download (extracted) into my backup folder and then the Restore went ok.
So far, I don't notice any difference except this kernel doesn't support the CPU temps in TempMonitor.02-13-10 11:36 AMLike 0 - avt123O.G.I did it last night, my Vista-64 machine gave me some weird error message when I told it to extract the files.

Oh btw how do you like temp monitor? i have been hesitating to get it. I have battery indicator in my notification bar already and i didn't want to put too much stuff on it. plus it has a battery temp monitor in it too and i can tell when my droid is getting too hot. mostly when its charging.02-13-10 11:41 AMLike 0 - avt123O.G.yeah i started reading a bout it and between sholes, taz, and this, there are no noticeable differences.

I heard that temp monitor is a huge battery drain. I had it for a few hours and then got rid of it once I heard about that.02-13-10 11:44 AMLike 0
