Agreed, setcpu would be your easiest bet.

Just install, open, slide the bar to 1200 or whatever you want.

I would recommend putting a widget on your home screen.

Makes it really easy to see what you're set on, and easy to modify.

Also, you can create profiles, like under clocking to 400 while the screen is off.

Install quadrant to get a rough idea of how the overclock is according affecting performance.
[Vibrant General] younix258:
I disagree with these 2... voltage control is fine... and oc is very straifhtforward... get oc kernel, use oc app to oc... forget wut they said about the profiles, from my exp, they only make things worse. Just oc and dont touch mvs

Sent from a cell tower to the XDA server to you.
[Vibrant General] Raistline:
Antutu's CPU master is another OC alternative for ya, if you are too cheap to spend money on SetCPU that is.
[Vibrant General] kacol16:
setcpu. best so far for me
[Vibrant General] kawika:
Agreed! Antutu does have OC capabilities and is a better Benchmark app IMHO

- Agreed! that messing with voltage is more trouble than its worth.

- Disagree! that profiles make things worse. It really depends on the settings. You should never UNDERclock your "max" to anything less than 800mhz.

For example: I have 1 profile set, its a High temp profile. When the phone reaches 125F setcpu resets to 800mhz(max) - 200mhz(min). Until the phone cools to under 125F then setcpu bumps it back to 1.7Ghz(max) - 200mhz(min).

Trust me this happens often and I'm glad I have that set, haven't had any problems with it.

Setcpu seems to be easy for me!

I am currently running void, 2.3.4 and I have a couple of questions. (I am a noob)

1. What is the best gingerbread rom out there in terms of performance stability and battery?

2. In void, the icons in the notification bar seem a little squished and small, particularly the battery one. Is there a fix for this?

3. About this whole baseband upgrade thing, is there a way to downgrade it if necessary? Do you have to upgrade it before moving to a rom that requires it?

Thank you, I just started rooting yesterday and am overwhelmed by options!

2.- I do not know... :confused:

[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Feels the same to me, but I don't pay much attention to battery. I don't think I changed anything that would really affect battery. A battery stats clear or calibration might help.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
White pixels use the most battery on an amoled screen, where as red pixels use the least. Charcoal has a lot of "white-ish" pixels, but to be honest it's such a minimal amount there is no way you would notice it.

edit: black pixels use the least, red second least.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
It's great. There are a few things that are hard to read because of dark text on dark background and most of the online theme names are in Chinese, but other than those I have no complaints. I put Go Launcher Ex on it so it's not a complete ios copy and that works flawlessly. The customization options arefantastic and I love the top bar battery indicator. Everything's stable so far. The only thing I think would make me switch is the battery which I've heard mixed reviews about. I'll just have to see.

Off topic, sorta, but you guys know best...

Go Launcher Ex theme's...does anyone know where the icons sit on the phone? I have looked all over the place but cannot find them. How does it work? How does the theme read the icons? I only ask as I'd like to use some of the folder icons in a few of the themes on the desktop but cannot assign them. This is for a folder...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
They're in the theme's apk. The exact filename depends on which theme it is, but the icons should be in something like /data/app/com.themedev.theme.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/

[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
I just tested this and it worked for me. I did however, fix the orange text on the suggestions.

A few suggestions for you:

Clear cache/dalvik cache (never hurts)

Play around with the Swype settings

Clear Swype's data with Titanium Backup (make a backup first)

Redownload and flash

That's all I've got. Good luck.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
I don't know about anyone else, but in my opinion, there isn't much to talk about.

I think I've done just about all I can do with the themes. I think they look great and I don't see anything out of place that I know how to change.

S7 has practically been declared dead by its creator and that makes me very hesitant to work with it. I don't see a point in making stuff for a ROM that will soon be abandoned.

As for your Swype issue, it is certainly possible that the new version introduced more battery usage, but I have no data on that matter and don't know how to fix it so I didn't reply earlier.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
if you would read around the captivate forums, rom manager isnt of much use to us here. just boot into recovery and use CWM, then select BACKUP AND RESTORE, to make your backup.....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
Ok. I don't even know if you can get there from where you are now, but the first step I'd recommend if you need to keep your app data is to get Titanium Backup (it's in the market). If you can get that running, do a backup (there's directions on how to do it in the stickies if you need it), and move that to a safe place (like your pc).

If you can connect via USB, you can always pull the clockworkrecovery.zip out of the AIO Captivate Toolbox, move it to your internal SD card, rename it update.zip, and then try to do the reinstall packages with that.

If you can't get there, and you don't have a good nandroid backup, you may (unfortunately) be out of luck with getting your saved data back. If you can't make a good backup, and you're still in froyo/eclair land (I'm guessing you are, since I believe that cog 4.5 is not gingerbread), you would probably be best off to use the Odin One-Click to Stock to put your phone at a nice clean place to start over.

After that, do a little reading and research, and find a ROM that you think looks like it will suit you well - it's going to be a matter of personal choice, so just read up. Once you find one that looks good, just read its directions on how you can install it.

Assuming all goes well, you'll be back up and running in no time. If you're luck, and Titanium Backup worked, you'll even be able to get your apps back.

If you have more questions, just post.
