OK I have Google'd Til my Internet went out (It actually did go out...most likely not due to excessive googleing but I digress)

I am interested in Overclocking and Undervolting my Evo4G and The Majority of the info I find is from June or July.

Have Dev's Abandoned the Evo4G or am I just having trouble sorting through the clutter to find the good stuff?

Heres a guide I wrote http://forum.cyanoge...works-with-cm7/ about it see undervolting and overclocking is usually based on what kernel your applying to your aosp setup... The rest is based on schedulers and evo hardware.
And to answer your question about the devs no they have not abandoned the evo4g. Your just having trouble sorting through the clutter.

Im guessing your wanting this to prolong your battery life?

Ya know whats funny everyone was saying I have GBL (god battery life) just two days ago I got a replacement evo and on its first charge its gone over 40 hours with a sense rom. I have ss to prove it. No kernels no undervolting no nothing.

I'm not entirely sure on phones but i think the same rule applies. I overclock my desktop PC. Have OCed every system I owned. In general, fewer volts means less overclocking headroom. To be at high clocks with any stability (or to hit them at all) you normally gotta keep stock volt or slightly overvolt (which is dangerous if you dont know what your doing). But if you are not going for a EVO 4G overclocking record then just use whichever undervolt script/kernal and OC until your EVO starts acting weird. Your mileage may vary, but mine was undervolt by -50mV and my evo ran at 1.153Ghz all day. It would not go any higher though without bootlooping (even if I returned to stock volts)

Overclocking phones is not the same as overclocking pc's... I am on a seriously overclocked pc I know how its done... Currently on a i7960 3.2gHz watercooled & OC to a 4.1 gHz stable... Very hard to get a stable i7960 the p6 chipset is very unstable stock so took me days to get it right... Especially if your on a dram frequency over 1333.


Phones are set up differently and usually have an offset where as pc's arent usually setup with an offset that means that Mv=Frequency. That is just not the case when it comes to pc's. A pc's frequency is usually dictated by the OS unless you have it set for the bios to dictate the frequencies. In phones its the kernel that assigns the frequencies to the a mV since there is no bios per-say on the phone.
