Thats why I don't bother to wonder why so many people are happy just using the stock ROMs...
The Stock Sprint ROM has had some pretty suprising graphics benchmarks for a while now. They have some optimizations or driver combinations that turn out ridiculous scores.

OK. I am where you were. I'd like to try it, but I'm where you were...nervous but interested. But what exactly did you do? Which program or programs did you use. What's the interface like...easy or hard to comprehend? I don't even know what SOD is (although I presume it's a hard freeze).

here's a simplified xplan just to try out OCing: forum.ppcgeeks.com/1948750-post7854.html

sod ... screen of death

I'm now running very stable at 729 mHz with no SODs with OCT v1.5. See my settings HERE.

As an added bonus, I am experiencing improved battery life!

I've had a few days getting anoyed with lock ups and trouble with Resco.
Anyone tell me how to remove all trace of OC_auto_v4.21 and Msm7kCpuSpeed.
Just uninstall the cab and gui?
Can I just uninstall the mortscript too?

My phone was fiine, but I talked myself into extra speed and now it sucks for SOD's and about 4 hrs battery life in stand by!

pull out the SD card, reset, then uninstall.

Try the new overclock method in my sig.

If U want longest battery U will hav to flash a Vin or Sharkie or MedHill rom, those are really popular and good BUT,
I also see there are like 5 more new roms from other cooks
I havent even tried yet so really you gotta just try it and flash another rom.

I consider myself pretty neutral, & try dif roms wen bored.
but what was my fav in past is also my worst battery suker,
Energyrom, tipping near 800Ma burst on acbpower meter, on 6.5 rom,
When most roms never reach 600ma spikes.

Overclocking should not make much difference as it is not adjusting the voltage settting,
The fact that you are getting SOD means U R on an older rom,
Or you are not implementing the app properly(too high or both apps at same time)
and not using the SOD cab I made, which helps 50%

so if you hav a severe battery issue,
the overclock app probably brought it to light.
I doubt you will resolve issue just by uninstalling....

I'm using a VIN rom, but it was from way back in Oct 09, so thayt may be part of it.
I found it to be stable and went back to it in feb this year.
I use SPB so the UI doesn't represent what the rom looks like, it just worked so I stuck with it.

Guess I'll get the new clean VIN rom and build it all back up again. then re-try the overclocking.

@maxx134 do you notice that your phone is not as snappy using winmospeed? i switch to it from msm7k (w/ ocauto4.2), and the same 768 setting does not seem to be as quick.

Ditched the overclock and all issues are gone. Resco now uploads to facebook again (main concern) and battery life is back.

Getting a free Pre to play with and while it's activated, I'll try some new ROM's on the TP2.
Thanks for the help.

Yes that is because the new WinMoSpeed app is not as intensiv as it lets the OS manage speed when not in use,s
Whweas the ocauto4.2 is actually a script keeping the msm7k locked down from deviating the native OS speed.

Since you also used this app which has constant running script, I assuming that would have played a part in your issues, so I would suggest trying another overclock like the new winMoSpeed as an experiment to see if that works for you.

I have mainly used the "setcpuspeed" app in past as it also used less resourses than the script methods.
Now I am trying the WinMoSpeed app but also it seems the least hard on the system.
but also not getting the speed I have seen before.
actually overclocking one step lower ran smoother than my top speed.

I am going to do a FULL stock rom/radio flash to see if overclocking can be increased.

After looking at my brothers epic android unit,
I feel not atisfied at my speed limit, with my old unit at 748Mhz and not fast enough..
Evry newer rom build seems nothn but "smoke and mirrors" as I see no real benefit in speed.
so I will also do a test with a stock 6.1 rom, and/or a custom 6.1
As long as I can have my CookieHomeTab & sensse I dont care anymore about latest OS Builds.
