[Q] best overclock frequency for x8?? - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ok first hi everyone i am new here and i have a question...now i have my x8 for 5 months and i have rooted it installed custom ROM and overclocked it to 710 mhz...soo i was just wondering what is the best and stable overclock frequency that i can get on my precious x8...

710 MHz is stable for most users. Try to go higher to see the OC limit of your phone. ( maybe 729 or 748 to get better performance).

710Mhz is recommended .

Agree.
710 Mhz is the max frequency i can get without issues, going further instantly freezes and reboots my phone, using any Rom, any scaling governor, any oc module.
You can try to oc more, (without applying oc settings on boot!), maybe you're luckier

My x8 frequency is at 749 with ondemand govermor and its really stable , no random restarts no nothing weird , you can try it but make a back up first..

you forget you can't back up your cpu

yeah tried to go higher but only thing i get get is just reboot so 710 mhz is the best choice

But he can backup ROM and that will backup freq that was set before higher CPU OCing.So when he restores old freq will be restored too.

thats right but it was ment in an other way.
you cant restore old settings or any with burned cpu

I think 710mhz is the best overclock frequency too.
because its the most stable freq, although I can go up for 748 mhz but I dont want to.(748 mhz stable for me too :] )

I use @ 710 Mhz my phone, and its very stabe.

stay at 710. and move up on the frequency scale until you get a hang or reboot. set the freq to the one before you got a reboot/hang and test for stability.
I use FXPOC Kernel which is open to 768Mhz and i'm lucky enough to have a cpu that's stable at this frequency.

710mhz is best. you can go higher but i prefer not to unless you have a kurnel or rom that is specificly designed for maximum limits, other wise 710mhz cuz thats most stablest for our x8. i tried to overclock it and i got stuck in a bootloop and i had to wipe my phone.

I set the cpu speed at Min748-768max

Min 767.9 Max 768. It's stable for me.
But recommended 710
Using Fd experience 2.0.0

Im not so lucky like you guys, mine X8 got unstable at 710mhz so i ve changed to 691 and is going fine till now. Im using FroyoBread v023b by DX great rom by the way.

Bro use 2.3.7 gb because of that we can use those frequency
Sent from my E15i using XDA Premium App

Maximum freq. doesn't depend on ROM it depends on hardwer (we all have same CPU but some of us have CPUs with higher or lower OCing potential).

If you can only go up to 691Mhz, then it would be better NOT to overclock. the GPU cycles you lose due to the GPU vs CPU scale outweighs the gain of 91Mhz from stock in overall performance.
You can also try the attached module, which is more forgiving than the latest 04 OC mod. both by Dx.
BTW, be sure to set your CPU speed to 600MHZ and set this to boot o9n whatever your using for controlling your OC, since the stock speed for this Mod is 800Mhz.

Yes it depends,try the new 2.3.7, with stock eclair and cm6, I will never have those frequency

[Q] No Frills or SetCPU?? Best suitable min frequency other than 100 mhz??

Which over clocking app is better No Frills or Set CPU?? Suggest other good overclocking app if there..
Which min frequency other than 100 mhz is better for smmoth functiong( not at the cost of battery).
I m on Darky Rom 10.2.2 EE
Dark Core Kernel 2.9.
There is no frequency better than 100 mhz if you don't want to lose battery. Common sense, please.
Set cpu is my prefered tool atleast

Question: CPU O/C to 800MHz...isn't that risky, the hardware O/C at 768MHz gets unstable, so how will battery/stability be affected by such a high clock speed...also anyone know how hot it runs at 800MHz?
can you add savagedzen governor?

I was thinking the same thing.
My phone crashes at 768MHz
Also, could you possibly enable undervolting?
(Can the Wildfire even BE undervolted?)

I thought about this, depending on your device (some have more kick than others) you might be able to get this high, I did this because I have seen phones with 1GHz processors overclocked to 2GHz.
If you are stable at 768, you could try higher, but it is your choice.

You will have to use a lower frequency then, I can't go any higher than 691MHz without crashes, but some people are fine on 768.
I am not sure about undervolting though.
I'm running stable at 710MHz, didn't try anything between 710 and 768 tho.
thanks for savagedzen.... it work?
for freq stay on 710, max 728 and phone doesn't crash.

Savagezen works, using it now.
Next version will have up to 768MHz but with more intervals

Yeah likewise, I am stable and very few if any system FCs at 728 MHz...so theoretically you can add near 80% more CPU speed with the right governor? Haha wishful thinking I know but imagine the Wildfire at 810+ :]

Yeah, I am going to put the CPU max speed back down to 768, and add some more governors.
I think 800MHz is a bit crazy, 768 is good.
Does anyone know how to do an update.zip? I have an idea to make a script that fetches the kernel and wifi module, then shoves it in a zip with an updater script and binary.
Currently looking at CM7 updater script in the zip to try and learn how to do these things.

With the right CPU governor, you should be okay at 768, maybe you could have 778?
To make things clear, at 768 MHz wildfire doesn't crash at any app except games, when you play for 2 or more hours it simply reboots. At 748 MHz it behaves the same. It's fully stable at 729 MHz, so 800 MHz it's unreal

Is that just from your experience or have you actually tested every single wildfire ever produced, I have 2 wildfires and both run perfectly fine and stable at 768, would also probably run just as well above this and have never rebooted on me after playing games continuously for a lot more than 2hours.
And just to make things clear some people cannot use the phone at 729 as it unstable and freezes.

[Q] What is the best OC?

Hey guys I've been using MiniCM7 2.1.8 + nAa kernel 10 I have never overclocked my X8, but I want to know what would be the best min and max freq and the gobernor to use as day to day.
I know that it decreses my device life, but I want to get more out of it.
any help guys? Thank

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

i recommend you to put your freq higher than 600 mhz only if needed.
i.e. For playing games.

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.
Sent from my E15i using xda premium
i use 19-768MHz on smartassv2!! very good performance and saves battery when the phone is sleeping!
I don't know why, but instant freeze and red led appears for me everytime i go over 729 mHz, nAa and alfs both

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

yeah i have lags with 19 min too when playing games... so i bump it up to 480 min... when im done playing back to 19 again!
19 saves a lot of battery... u can check if how much 19MHz is being used while the phone is sleeping.. search for "CPU Spy" on the market!

i think its solve 1 ghz bug

If the error persists, delete 1000 mhz, so you won't have any obvious error.because i dont use 1000 mhz i always use 800 mhz in my s3 mini.please developer deleted 1000 mhz i think its solve to problem
Sorry my bad english
Delete 1Ghz LOL Anyways, if you've got a rooted phone download SetCPU or NoFrills and select 800Mhz as max frequency

If someone doesn't have a rooted phone, just use battery saving mode. That changes max CPU frequency. If you're on stock ofc.
Stok rom isnt have 1ghz bug. But other custom roms have this :/ this solve for other custom roms.
Sorry for my bad english.
All time (since I have installed cm11) I was so surprised that the other people are writing about 1 ghz bug but I don't have it. Now I know I don't have that big because I have change max frequency to 800 MHz (to save battery) .
Actually, 1GHz bug usually start after use media like music or video. I was using CPU apps but there are other bugs too draining battery so i returned to stock rom.
