so I've been overclocking at 748800mhz, min and max, on the screen on profile which is perfectly stable. I tried overclocking at 768000mhz, min and max, and got random reboots approximately every 5 minutes. so, if I set the max to 768000 and the min to 748800, will it be stable?

Should be, what is your scaling set to? Try it with smartass or interactive.
it was set to performance, but ill try it on interactive!

Performance will keep it at the maximum all the time. If your phone cant handle the speed, it will freeze/boot loop until you change it. Try interactive and make a profile for when you plug your charger in, it drops down to 691.
What kind of battery life are you getting when you leave your cpu overclocked with both the min/max like that?
I typically do 245/710 for screen on but get 20-30hrs of battery life, is the battery hit not that much or are you just around a charger enough that you don't need to worry about it?

no. if your phone reboots at 768 it just can't handle the frequency. You should try clocking your min down a bit, like to 352 min screen on, it should help battery a bit and I doubt you'll notice a difference in performance. Also, if you apply the smartass governor it will do a few things your profiles do, so you won't need as many profiles. In the smartass gov, the max freq screen off is 352, and the min freq screen on is 518, so all you would need to set is a general profile like 245 min and 748 max, then the smartass gov will do the rest for you

I wouldn't worry about the website, just keep using that forum.
Is it better to just have one profile (like 710 max, 245 min) rather than two profiles, one for screen-on (528-710) and one for screen-off (245-352)? Also, is it better to use the ondemand governor rather than interactive or smartass?

I just set it as 100-1200 interactive. Then set a profile when the screens off 100-600 conservative.
As long as the profile is set from 200mhz - (200-1200mhz) the phone won't shut off and you won't have to remove the battery I had this issue on my phone....

That's because you had it set on "ondemand" I had the same exact issue for a long time before I figured out that was the problem. It has something to do with the kernel doesn't support it right with setcpu or something. I read it somewhere on this forum. I've had it set at 100 min for the last 3-4 weeks and it's never not turned on (as long as it ISN'T set for ondemand).
I'll bump this thread to ask a question.
Around the time I installed SetCPU, I noticed a HUGE drop in battery life. To be honest, I'm not sure if SetCPU is the problem, or if I changed something else on the phone and that's the source of my problem. Anyone know anything that I could have changed unknowingly that caused my battery life to suck so hard.
Don't use set cpu if you can avoid it. Sre sets you to 1.2 ghz and unhelpful supplies a script if you are comfortable doing that.
Limiting speed with set cpu had little positive influence. As long as the scalling is working the cpu should idle with the screen off any how. The only situation I would change the clock is during an overheat condition but I'm running without set cpu all together.
If I'm interpreting unhelpful right the next kernel will make use of user space in set cpu and allow many new things including under voltage to save battery and the creation of custom clocks not written into the kernel so you aren't bound to his preferences.

the governor should be interactive or ondemand
and the frequency should be between
480 to 710.
Press thanks if i helped...
I personally use min 120 MHz, Ondemand governor
Now for max, use the higher value tha your chip can hold (mine on nAa is 729 MHz and in Alfs is 748 MHz)
thanks guys so it will be ok to set min 122Mhz and 721Mhz max ondemand governer! one more thing since i have nAa kernel that freq should be ok as day to day use or would u guys recommend me just when needed

thanks man i guess ill do that nAa 11 has 864Mhz max freq would it be ok to play games with that?
864 mhz might not be stable.... if it is then ok. but it may heat up the device. so be cautious. i am using stock kernel and i overclocked to 768 mhz. and is pretty stable and the device is pretty much cool.
I personally use 729mhz max and 245mhz min. With i/o scheduler noop or bfq. And governor smartass v2. And btw, I am using nAa v09.
depends on the device... Some X8 can go up to 805 Mhz and others can't. Personally I use 748 Mhz Max and 480 Mhz Min with SmartassV2 governer.
PRESS THANKS IF I HELPED
I use my phone in 600 MHz,but for playing I change it to 806 MHz. 864 MHz gived a processor freeze and a red led instantly.

because every processor has more power than what is set as default... for us its 600MHz... but our processor has more power than that...
mine is stable at 768MHz, random reboots at 787MHz and freezes at 806Mhz... but some of us can even go further some can OC it to 825-865MHz....
the only cause is not even one processor is perfect... they all have faults... just some are more perfect than others... and 600Mhz is default because this frequency works stable on the processor in all our X8

You should really consider clocking up to at least 1400 you'll notice a huge difference as long as your rom/kernel is stable at higher speeds. If your scared of overheating you can set a profile to change your clock settings once it reaches a certain temp.

But... It's smooth as it is just a question, why do you overclock? For games, or for smoothness in the os? Because I have a Nexus 7 for games and everything, I don't need a super powered phone. Even my N7 is usually underclocked
Another reason I don't overclock is because my phone is unstable at higher frequencies with my voltage settings. If I raise the voltages it will use more battery :/

Freeze the TwDVFS package in Titanium Backup, then try again. You will lose power saving mode this way, but you will gain control over CPU frequency.
Freezing the package doesnt have any effect for me. Using SETCPU, have general setting 1000/200 with governor conservative, scheduler noop, applying at boot and it works fine, have a great performance and a really good battery live but profiles i create wont be applied. Wanted to create a profile with lower frequencies at a battery level under/equal a value of 20% but no success for me. Tried with all governers incl. the powersave - but nothing changes. Of course rooted, with OXXAMB2 fw and stock kernel...

Thank you for the feedback, I'm actually surprised. I haven't tested freezing TwDVFS but its name and kmsg seemed to point out that it was in charge of breaking CPU profiles.
