what is high freqvency stabile of cpu ?

I think 748MHz But you can test stability by yourself.

Yes, this is the max stable frequency. Above that you may have reboot or freeze.

For me is 729

729 for me too.

729 works with me

122 - 748 mhz - performance.
122-480mhz-battery saver.

[Q] best overclock frequency for x8??

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).
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
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.
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
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
Sent from my E15i using XDA Premium App
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] 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!

Xperia x8 overclock problem

Hi there,
I installed 4 modules: fix mddi, undervolt, dual touch, and faster wifi.
I decided to overclock my phone and it seems to be slowing down my phone rather than what it says by speeding it up.
Could it be because i am on semc stock kernel?
After some frequencies it happens to slow...its stock kernel fault.

The OC module has a problem in that when the module is activated it will underclock (correct me if I am wrong) if the OC frequency set is too low (abt 600MHz to 691MHz). Just don't set the OC frequency too low or stop using x8oc.

Actually nAa does a better job in that.
Maximum frq in alfs is 806 but in nAa 825 is available too

I just read dx's thread as i was interested in undervolting. x8oc.ko will only undervolt once your frequency goes below 600mhz.
@ftwisawesome: are you using "smartass" governor? Try switching to ondemand to check if it slows your phone like you said. And i believe you don't need to undervolt as spyder said it's already built in the oc module. (You are using x8oc.ko, right?)

Oh gosh I said UNDERCLOCK, not UNDERVOLT. The 2 are different and what I meant is that if you insmod x8oc and set it to, say, 600MHz, it will not really clock at 600MHz, it will clock at a lower speed.

Oh, my bad. Sorry about that.
No idea adt the underclock thing, but it does seem that way (ie: cpu set at "600mhz" using module really seems slower than 600mhz before applying it).
Really sorry man..

Change the governor to "performance" and watch if it happens again.

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 :/
But they said, I am setting my phone to 1.2GHz now to try
