Omap kernel source released, time to make an overclock kernel!

---

Omap kernel source released here:
https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/omap

I hope that one of our great developers (Franlov, Thiaiz?) can make an overclock kernel!

the kernel source is not the problem, cause cm's sources are available. But didn't know how to build the boot.img and franlov didn't share his way he do it.

¿Are you sure?cm's kernel source code is not working with lg ginger.

¿Have you talked to ricardo to cyanogen mod?

? ? LG has not released yet the kernel to pretend ...... until then little can be done

Until we crack the boot.img decompile AND recompile, we're sunk....

Had the same problem until I finally asked Arcee (Ricardo the CM dev) all creds to him

He told med you need to use

mkimage -A ARM -T multi -n "My Bootimg" -C None -a 0x80008000 -e 0x80008000 -d kernel-file:ram-file boot.img

also I did a bit of trial and error and found out that instead of 2048 stripping when doing a normal separation of kernel and ram (from a boot.img) you just need to remove the first 76, hope this helps, I've tried it and it works without a hitch.

Edit:
In Ubuntu you just need to do a

sudo apt-get install uboot-mkimage

to get the right software

Well I can confirm that it works. At least on cm7 kernel. Havent tried others still.

That are great news ! but how much the battery will last with overclocked kernel ? 2 hours ?

If using tuned voltages, governors and io schedulers it can be more. Which reminds me, I need to do my standard external battery charger and extra batteries. I always have a spare. Part of why I prefer android over iPhone. (That and tinkering :P)

It works for all boot.img files to the O3D, my ROM has a repacked stock
