Is it safe enough to just try for the maximum speed once, and if you run into issues, get in there and change the settings before anything serious happens? Some say just try it in steps, increasing speed gradually. How long should I look for a speed to be stable before I decide to try the next higher speed?

If I OC the phone and it somehow burns out, will insurance cover it (assuming you just tell them it died by itself, not admitting you OCed it to hell)?

Has anyone heard of that happening?

You have probably had your question answered but here is my experience.

First I installed an overclock application and manually upped the clock speed one step at a time untill finally at a certian speed it would just freeze the phone. No problem a soft reset put the phone back at stock speed and I would try again. I found out that something like 806ish froze my phone every time i upped to it So I set down a step or 2 to 768. I exited the over clocking program and played around for a few minutes with no problems. I decided 768 was a good speed. I soft reset my phone so it went back to stock speed then I installed the oc auto script so that it would down clock my phone when it went to sleep. I have been running 768 with a safe speed of 604 so I dont get Sleep of death's. I have had no problems yet and no freeze ups. My check interval is 1100 ms or 1.1 seconds.
