[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] sanny5:
HELLO AGAIN ALL MY FELLOW galaxy y USERS :)

Till day before yesterday I had some paranoid thoughts regarding overclocling ... but finally came did some logical thinking and decided to overclock sgy (running Hyperion 8)

As it was my first oc I decided to follow this great guide made by

BiswajitBarman

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=33879798

Although it is a really nice guide it didn't work properly on Hyperion 8 :( . I also searched many other guides and videos regarding this but none of them really worked 100% (although one guide did work almost perfectly on Hyperion 7 it failed to work on h8)

Following were the bugs I was experiencing

*root access denied by super su

*unable to underclock below 1.2 ghz

*link to SD problems and root denied

*random reboots

*hot reboot doesn't work and screen freezes if u hit on it and had to pull battery etc etc

So after a whole day of research, trial and error, some suggestions from deadly and others, bricking unbricking flashing via Odin etc etc I finally deviced a fully working easy guide with no bugs to flash meeruk kernel 2.5 on h8 and overclock it to 1.2Ghz :victory: :D

All the problems stated above are eliminated by this method except for the hot reboot function :(

Phone still freezes if u hit on it but the reboot works just fine and the phone doesn't take that long to reboot either (about 30seconds :D)

Other than that no other bugs afaik

NOTE- ALTHOUGH THE METHOD WAS DESIGNED FOR HYPERION .... IF U ARE HAVING SOME PROBLEMS WITH OC ON ANY OTHER ROM ... TRY THIS METHOD :) IT MAY WORK IF IT (IF IT DOESNT U CAN TELL UR PROBLEM ALONG WITH THE ROM NAME HERE (NOT PM) AND ME IR SOMEONE HERE WILL TRY TO HELP :)

OK to the procedure now :) (it may be long but its easy and works perfectly

Note that if u do not follow my instructions properly bricking is guaranteed (or it may not work properly)

THINGS U NEED

superuser.apk (use only this super user)

Kernel Update.zip

Merruk technology2.0.tar

Elite modules.zip

Ext4-Converter-signed.zip

I assume u already have root explorer installed on ur phone (flashing stock is not really necessary but ur choice)

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

Part 1

*download the paste all the files given above and paste it in the root of your SD card

*copy the super user.apk and paste it in \system\apps\here and set permissions to rw-r-r using root explorer

*now in the same place where u pasted superuser.apk search for the super su.apk (or any other equivalent that u were using) and delete it

*reboot phone

*now open superuser

*go to settings and UNCHECK outdated binary notification

*do not update the version of superuser I provided

Part 2

*go to SD card in root explorer and search for the MerrukTechnology_Pre-2.0.tar I u just downloaded and extract it (hope u pasted all downloaded files directly in SD)

*u will get the boot.img (before that make sure u do not have any other boot.img on the root of ur SD)

*now boot into cwm

*make a backup (imp)

Part 3

*now go to mounts and storage make sure system,data,SD,cache,sdext all are mounted (if not mount them all)

*go back and hot install zip from SD and select the kernel update.zip

*it search for boot.img and install it

*after that go back and check if everything is mounted (this time its 100% necessary that all are mounted so mount them all if they are not mounted)

*now go back and choose install zip from SD and choose Ext4_Converter-signed.zip

*after success wait for a while (30 secs) and hit back (if u get an error, pull battery boot into recovery and do the part 3 again but its unlikely that u will get one)

*now wipe cashe (marok recommends this)

*reboot system

*if u enter a boot loop, awesome go to part 4

If u do not enter a boot loop and if ur system boots..! Something has gone wrong do part 3 again

Part 4

*pull battery and boot to recovery

*u will notice u r in meeruk kernal's cwm recovery

*mount everything

*go rom backup and restore and simply restore the backup u just made

*trust me ur old kernel will not be restored and u will still have meeruk kernel 2.5

*after everything is restored reboot

*u should phone should boot now

*wait and if u r in a boot loop do 3,4 parts again (its unlikely if u followed my procedure carefully)

Part 5

*after phone is booted and all media scanning is complete

*set ur require settings in CPU controle and Chek apply on boot and apply

*u may NOT get a notification saying CPU control has been granted super user permission but it says values applied ... that's fine

*reboot to recovery

*mount everything

*choose zip from SD

*select 1-EliteKernelModules.zip

*reboot system after completion

*now after boot u will notice that link to SD ,CPU control and all root apps are asking superuser permission (lol) grant them

*NOTE- ALWAYS SET MINIMUM FREQUENCY TO 312 MHz (this eliminates random reboots)

* and enjoy

The over clock works like charm for me with the following settings

and I can play games like air penguin, subway surfers,raging thunder 2 and many more without lag and without cf3d... I also player armv6 ported nfs shift with just texture reduced without lag

Thanks to marok os for such awesome work on the kernel :)

pleez consider donating to sir MAROC OS so he can make the kernel even better :)
