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.

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!

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 don't see smartass either. I'm running both the CMD kernel and rom. Is there a way to fix this?
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

I cant underclock mine, anyone here suceeded underclocking their device?? Im trying to make my device 1000mhz max 200 mhz min when screen on , 600 mhz max 200 mhz min when screen off but how low i set my max freuqency it stills stays on 1000 mhz. I know power saving thing can allow u to underclock but the max frequency was only 800 mhz.

Try an app called on google play one power guard it works for me. Allows you to set your own custom frequencies.

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.
