My Chips Not up to par? .29 Kernel blues

---

Everytime I try flashing Anything with toasts custom kernel my phone just wants to up and die, If play with the phone and am patient enough I can sometimes get one boot, that eventually crashes and never comes back as I just see a solid HTC logo.

I'm also finding every-time I try booting, while looked up to the computer trying to get a logcat or at least something it appears my phone is malfunctioning to the point it only appears as an unknown device if it even shows.

I've tried Freshtoast, IC3rom and the newest Darchdroid to no avail.

I'm thinking i just got cursed with subpar chips from htc and that perhaps it doesn't even like the lower 710 mhz overclock, anyone else experiencing this?

Just frustrated, if anyone would be willing to give input or plain help it'd appreciated knowing that time is valuable, There is great work at foot here.



Edit: Just about had to shove my foot in my mouth, got a boot started right before I posted, Saddly it isn't booting reliably let it set up
logged into my google account and tried to restart the phone, same luck I've been having has decided to hard reset? "Vibrates and screen flash" 4 Times in the past 5 minutes

well I am not sure what you have and havent tried, but a few things to check first. Is your sdcard setup for apps2sd? if so did you wipe that also when you are switching roms?.
Did you wipe your data between roms?
Have you tried just a stock rom, such as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=681697 . this is completely stock of the final 2.1 release. Wipe everything including your ext partion on your sdcard, if you have one.
Thats at least a starting point to see if you dont have faulty hardware. You honostly should have no problem getting that to work.

Try Zen's slide rom. I too could not boot a single overclocked rom, until I tried that one. Is overclocked, but boots up at 480, and no bfs or compcache, so I don't know what makes it work, but it does. Once in, I was able to overclock to 691 (stock is 528), and I get neocore scores of 32-33 fps consistently, linpacks at 2.9-3.1, so almost right there with those going to 767, definite improvement over stock. Anyways, try it, my favorite sense rom by far.

I'm having these issues too... I want DarchDroid....

Aye Zen did a pretty sweet job on it, If I have to use sense thats the rom with the goodies I really like, more so when he managed to get rid of all the purple and pink from it.

I had the same issues. I loaded the overclock widget and set it to 480 then updated the kernel to .29. Seemed to work. I got it up to 691 before I had lock up issues. 768 is 3 seconds.

That's an interesting fix. I'm going to try that, as I've had issues flashing any rom that is OC'd (trying DC 2.08.1 .29 kernel right now using your suggestion)

Edit: That still did not work for me for DC. I'm at a loss.
