Everything worked like a charm! Thanks so much!

thank you very much

Thanks, it really did help with the speed performance.

Thank you! This really helped! I have one question though...

3- After UberKernel is installed, open Govnah and select the 1.5GHz option.

When you say select the 1.5GHz option, do you mean select the profile 'OnDemandTcl 1512'? My CPU 1 Frequency shows 1.512 GHz but CPU 2 Frequency shows 0 MHz...is this correct? And if I quit the Govnah ap,p the settings are saved correctt?

yeah the snapdragon dual core can stop one processor and clock just one to be efficient (think intel I series turbo boost). you don't need two cores always to get things done. if you want to see the touchpad RIP turn it on performance mode @ 1.7ghz (both cores). seriously way faster

I tried to find out where to do the webOS Internals Testing Feeds
is it through the computer or finding it through preware?

awesome!

thanks!!!!!!! it worked great

preware if you can't figure it out - how to add testing kernel feed and install uberkernel you probably shouldn't potentially wreck your device. 1.7ghz is much needed. it's about 80% as fast as ipad2 in browsermark at 1.7ghz (versus 1ghz A5)

worked for me thank you!

Hi,

Your instructions worked great. I installed UberKernel first, but have now deleted it and installed the f15c kernel from the experimental but it shows it as a 1.5ghz kernel in both the details before download, and as the max frequency in the govnah settings. Any ideas?

Thanks!
Wes

just got my TP yesterday and joined up. thanks for easy instructions

I'm having the same problem! Unless this is what is supposed to appear in Govnah?

This worked perfectly, thanks so much!

thanks, my dad will love this tablet for reading his news and stuff

Just got mine yesterday and just overclocked...thanks

Hi, I have been playing around with my TP this weekend, I tried the different kernels and here are my thoughts: Uberkernel is perfectly stable and CPU temperature @ 32 degres C.
I was trying to install F15C kernel after that but the installation failed: I first removed Uberkernel, but still had the same installation problem. I then reset the TP through the Device Info app (Erase Apps & Data), took 10 minutes and then I had to reinstall Preware & Govnah.
I tried Warthog kernel, default CPU speed is 1.728 Ghz, seems stable as well, CPU temp @ 39 degres C after 10 minutes watching 1080p video on youtube.
Finally I installed F15C, and after the same 1080p video, CPU temp was at 37 degres C and this is the kernel configuration I have kept.
Thanks!
