Question [Q] How do I OC in Infused?

I've been figuring out how to install custom roms and kernels lately, and was wondering if it is possible to combine an Infusion kernel with an Infused rom, and what the best procedure for that would be.

I tried Infused 2.1 and then loading the 1.8 Infusion kernel but was met with bootloops. Would it be more stable perhaps to install Infused 1.6 and Infusion 1.5.1/2 ?

And just to be sure, would I install the Infused rom, then the Infusion kernel, and then root + load rom manager backup image? Or would titanium be a better option to recover with? I have both of them backed up.

woah... you are WAY off on absolutely everything.

first and foremost, you need to be rooted before you can do anything that you are attempting to describe. figure out how to root in the "development" section.

as for flashing things, this guide is for a tablet, but same general process applies to the infuse: http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/...m-kernels.html

and then as for the kernels you are referring to - as a general rule (few exceptions), you may only flash froyo kernels with froyo ROMs, and gingerbread kernels with gingerbread ROMs. you can find out what kind of ROM/kernel you are attempting to flash by reading the title of the thread, or the original post.

research everything THOROUGHLY, so that you know what you are doing before you do this!

You could not use the 1.8 kernel because it is a froyo kernal and infused 2.1 is gingerbread.
If you want both flash infused 2.1 and then infusion kernel 1.6 for gingerbread.

I've already rooted my phone, got the modified 3e recovery, and flashed the update.zip from CWM.

Now, I've downloaded infusion-GB.1.1.zip and am downloading update-infused-v2.1.0-full.zip.

Now, to my understanding I would go about installing both of these by first using Rom Manager to install update-infused-v2.1.0-full.zip (and clearing user data/cache), thus installing the GB rom. Then I would use CWM (getting to it via two volume buttons plus power button) and pressing the update option on the list.

Can anyone point me as to where I might be going wrong with my logic? If this rom and kernel are not compatible (even though they both clain to be GB) then should I instead use the Infusion 1.5.1/2 kernel and update-infused-v1.6.0-full.zip files?

Also are backups from FROYO roms incompatible with GB Rom Manager?

those are compatible. no need to clear anything when installing the kernel, only the ROM - just go into red CWM, using the buttons like you said, and flash the infused ROM zip, and then the infusion kernel zip.

once you're done with that, get voltage control or setCPU from the market, and you should be able to adjust the maximum frequency to 1.6, although it may not be stable.

I managed to get it all working. I followed all the steps from this post and after doing those steps I used red CWM to update the kernel meaning that my cetCPU can OC and manage the cpu up to 1.6ghz.

Thanks all for info and help! Much appreciated

Now, while we're still here... can anyone recommend a good icon/theme changer for Infused? It'd be nice to have icons like what gtg465x has on the screens in the link I posted.

P.S. I didn't restore my apps/data with my backups simply because in his post, gtg465x said not to use them unless absolutely necessary.

You'll want to use the Infusion 1.0/1.1 kernel for Infused 2.1. You must use gingerbread kernels with gingerbread roms. You can download Voltage Control or Setcpu from market to be able to OC/UV. Once you've downloaded either, set your max to 1.6, you can go through the setting and set what you like as far as speed and volts. I use Voltage Control, my setting are:

Cfq scheduler ondemand Governor
200-1600mhz
200, 400, 800, 1200, 1600mhz enabled. dont use more than 5-6 settings.
UV
1600-75
1200-75
800-50
400-50
200-50

I know you can UV more than what I am using, but I dont like to push it to its max UV.

Cfq is a setting for the scheduler in voltage control, I believe it means completely fair queuing. You can use the ROM infused 2.1.0 with that kernel, its what im running.
