Get it here. [Kernel] Stock speeds undervolt. [update] - xda-developers
I am using it and my phone seems to run much much cooler. Haven't really tested battery life yet, but it seems better.

As usual, these are update.zip format. Rename to update.zip, place on root of sdcard, and install (don't forget to 'allow').
My advice to you, in selecting a kernel, is to #1 try the lowV varieties first. Then select the slowest kernel that exceeds what you expect to run on a day to day basis. So if you plan on running 800-1000, run the 1.0lv kernel.
If for some reason you get stuck on the 'M' while booting, first try switching to the mediumV kernel. If that does not work, back the speed down, say from 1.25 to 1.2, or 1.2, to 1.1, etc.

I forgot to bring my Droid Incredible charger with me to work. Since the battery was getting low I decided to use my BlackBerry Storm charger on it. The ports are the same, and it goes in without any problems. However, after doing this, it became difficult to unlock. Swiping down usually didn't work. If I was able to swipe down I couldn't get past the "password puzzle." I thought the phone was locked up so I pulled the battery, but it still wouldn't swipe after coming back up. I took the charger out and realized I could swipe again. I repeated this, again plugging the charger in and again I was unable to swipe to unlock. Is there a voltage difference between the BB charger and the Incredible charger? It seems like it was charging it fine. JuicePlotter shows a charge while it was plugged in.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just rooted and am running the Sky Raider 3.1 RC3 ROM. I believe this rom comes with KingxKernal #1. I am not getting great battery life as of right now and am hoping that someone can suggest a new Kernal to help with this. I've read that KingKernal #4 can help with battery life, is this compatible with the rom that I am currently using?

View 29 Replies View RelatedSo I'm running the CM 6.0.2 rom and i had Kings kernal #1 installed and I was getting great quadrant scores and very stable. Then I tried to use wifi tethering today and....didn't work
I use wifi tethering alot for my ipad(don't flame to much on that) but the wifi tethering kept me from having to buy a 3g ipad and kept me away from AT&T.
So my question is what is the best kernal to use that supports wifi tethering? Without breaking GPS or BT audio?
So I try and install the zip off of my sd card and i keep getting an error
E:signature verification failed
installation aborted
can anybody tell me what im doing wrong
Every time it begins the download, It will go to the download screen and then the word "error" appears no matter what kind a file it is. I'm using Skyraider RC3 for Sense using it's default Kernal.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just installed Cyanogen from DroidMod and while I was at it, I installed the p3 1ghz low voltage kernel. So far, I'm pretty happy. I'm not sure it's been a huuuge battery saver, but I think it's helped. Wifi and bluetooth have been on all day. A few phone calls. Lots of texting and emails. Also some market apps downloaded as well as files transferred on/off. At 8:30 my battery life is at 50%, which is pretty damn good considering how much better that is from strait out of the box on release day.
I'm running 800mhz overclocked, instead of 1ghz to save some power. Should I switch to a different kernel since I'm not even using the 1 ghz slot?

Ive been given a usb 12 volt charger to use with my desire which works whereas the official 1 doesnt (due to my car being french), question is on the official 1 it says input is 10 - 30 v 0.8A output 5v 1A and the 1 ive been given has input at 12 ~ 24 vdc output 5v dc 1A. would the 1 i have been given charge the phone ok

View 3 Replies View RelatedPossibly a simple answer to this question -- can the USB charger that ships with the Droid X be used with 220 volts in addition to 110 volts? I am planning to take my Droid X to India and need to figure out if I should plug the charger into a 110/220V travel converter, or if the USB charger is already dual voltage and I'll only need a plug point adapter. The voltage specified on the charger has 240V as the upper range, which leads me to think it should work with 220V.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI live in the UK and have ordered my Nexus One from the US, without a UK adapter. My question is what voltage the standard AC adapter uses, as the UK runs 240V typically. I can get hold of a cheap US-UK power adapter that doesn't do any voltage changes, so I was wondering whether that would be sufficient. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Been wondering this for a few days. Does setCPU raise CPU voltage when it overclocks ?
Because if it doesn't, then battery life shouldn't be affected.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have several USB-MicroUSB cables (some OEM Motorola, some other brands), several 12 volt-USB converters, several cars, and several devices that accept MicroUSB connection for power. With everything other than my Droid (including a Blackberry and a GPS unit) every combination of cable and 12volt converter works. With the Droid, all of the combinations will turn on the screen (indicating the Droid knows a cable has been connected), but only a few combinations will actually charge the Droid. The only possible explanation I have come up with for this is that the Droid has some sort of minimum current requirement, and that some converter/car/cable combinations are unable to meet this requirement. So, what is the minimum voltage and current that will allow the Droid to charge?
