Hello,
My phone -xperia x8 white e15i
Kernel - Stock
It don't matter what Rom I use I can only OC till 691 MHz at 710mhz my.phone freeze and reboot.
also I get reboot time to time on 691.
I heard that very x8 should atleast be stable at 710
my question is.
Do I get a higher stable frequency if I use a different module other than Dix's???
I came across a module which offers a higher frequency .... search for better overclock you will find the thread.....so will I get a higher frequency? ?? using the other module???
I USED THE SEARCH BUTTON BEFORE POSTING.
so don't yell at me. : )
Help
I'm not too sure about this one since I'm a part noob much like you but have you tried flashing a different kernel such as Alfs? linuxxd is really good but doesn't allow overclocking as I found out with the same problem as yourself Sorry I meant stock kernel doesn't allow overclocking ...
If I helped you please answer my question on a new thread I made
It's up to your phone. Your processor can go till that frequency without freezing. Other X8s can go higher. It doesn't depend on the ROM or kernel.
A custom kernel allows better overclocking most of the time. When I was on stock kernal the highest I could get to was 710Mhz before rebooting. With a custom kernel I can get to 787Mhz before rebooting.

@guys above thanks for answering ...
but I still don't get the answer ....
anyways if I change my kernel then I will be changing the software part only .... so how can it increase my CPU potential .. ?????

dependent on yes. with stock kernel to kernel naa 691 Mhz 806 big diference
what about.a different module??? it can increase potential? ??

You need to understand that the stock kernel is not designed for overclocking, it's only possible with modules for stock kernel.
You can try the other module but I doubt it'll be any improvement, if you want better overclocking you really should install a custom kernel.

i installed gdx v009 and overclocked it and set the setcpu to 729 Mhz - 122 Mhz. i'm having some trouble sometimes my phone just automatically reboot by it self... is there a way to fix this? or should i uninstall overclock and run it on stock ram. have anyone of you tried this kind of setup? any answers/reply or comments are welcome. please. thanks in advance.
Try lowering your Overclock.
I've heard that some people had reboot problems with OC (but not only in this ROM).
Mine is 122-691Mhz with GingerDx.008 and its okay.

Realy? What seems to be the problem on my unit.... maybe i should set my setcpu setting the same way you did... how about supercharger script have you tried? I brick my phone twice trying that supercharger.
Nope. I didn't try to use supercharger.
I've read that when we want to OC, we should try the different CPU speeds gradually.
Increase a bit and then see if the phone handles it... then increase a bit more... when the reboots or other problems start, we know which frequence we should use.
But the frequence is not the same for every CPUs... The phone is the same, but not every CPUs handle the same... We can be lucky and get it to 800Mhz without problems... but not everyone has that lucky.

Hi all,
any idea why I get no options to set min. and max. CPU frequencies in CPU settings? I am using GingerDX v011 and had the same problem in v010.
I can open the "Max CPU frequency" option, but it is empty with no available frequencies to choose...
Thank you
For using something exactly like supercharger, use the stuff in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1212396&page=14
Each phone can OC to a different max frequency, for example I can't OC to 825 MHz but I know some people can.

I believe GingerDx does not ship with the X8Overclock module...
Hello:
I wanna know: is it possible to do overclock in gingerDX-v011 ?
I found a option but they are blocked
yes it is possible but you need to download X8overclock v004. you will find this in DX's signature, just click the link read the guide download and stick it on your phone where he tell's you to. then go back to W/E it is you use to OC then the option's aint blocked anymore.
Here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188486 click that go to bottom of one of dx's post's in his signature click the X8overclock v004 link. FOLLOW instruction's. DONE
Hope i help'd
If so please Click " THANKS "
Im on gingerdx v018 with undervolt modules(stock kernel), when I try to overclock my phone, it become very unstable(very laggy).. Do I have to remove the underclock module? If so can I just remove the module from the module folder.. thanks in advance!
As far as I know undervolt module causes phone instability when it's overclocked, try to remove that module (undervolt) and see what will happen. You can remove just by removing it from module folder and (I'm not sure but) you have to also remove line from hw_config which contains that module.
I am also using GingerDX overclocked at 710Mhz with undervolt but no problem for me so far
I have only 600Mhz.
I cant overclock only underclock, even with OC-Kernel.
The problem is on Stock Firmware 2.3.3 and Costoum Roms.
Is there a Hardware-Bug or what else?
Not all chips are made to the same quality. They only have to reach a certain clock speed to pass quality checks. Certain devices can be overclocked due to being of higher quality.

Yes but the default clock of the ACE is 800Mhz right? But MY default clock is 600Mhz.
I dont have any options to overclock only from 124Mhz - 600Mhz.
The default clock of 800Mhz would be ok for me..
You sure its a ace? Galaxy fit / mini & 551 / europa are 600mhz MSM7227 vs 800mhz MSM7227-t 800mhz galaxy gio / ace.
Yes! Its definitely a ACE i have the Samsung box here .. and there are a big label Galaxy ACE "800Mhz CPU"
Which rom are you using? Did you have the same problem on stock rom?
Do you have setcpu, if you do go on Info ; CPU what does it say ; Cpu Part / Cpu Revision / Hardware / Revision ?
If problem presist then go to Samsung service centre and change your phone dude

Hi @Cr0nFixXx!...
It would seem to me that your problem is your Kernel... The details in your first thumbnail show the kernel to be that of a different dev to @Ketut...!!! Your OC Kernel details should read as this : 2.6.35.7-perf-CL562111 [email protected]#4
The frequencies of the Cpu are governed solely by the kernel, so this is without a doubt your limiting factor...
The below kernel is tried & tested by thousands of users & is stable under OC...(check my sig for details)...
You can download this kernel from my dropbox here : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/44779766/cm-7.1-oc-kernel-2.6.35.7-perf-CL562111.zip
Flash this kernel from CWM recovery... Reboot phone, go to cyanogen setting/Performance & you should get the full cpu range for OC...
To see stable max OC set governor to "Performance"... Remember, only increase cpu frequency a little at a time & test for stability before increasing further...
Only when you have found your max stable clock speed can you tick "set on boot"...
FYI : OC kernels can only be used with custom roms... They will not work with stock roms... @Ketut's OC kernel will only work with CM7.1 / 7.2 Roms... Do not try with any other rom...
Stay Breezy n Be Lucky...
Pe"ACE"...
Thanks for your help but .. same problem
I even cant get it to 800Mhz Default Clock

Hey Dude...
This is a very strange problem indeed... The Armv6 cpu is standard 600mhz cpu but samsung factory OC it when it is used in our aces... so we end up with an end-user frequency of 806mhz... Yours won't even reach that out of the box...?
Do me a favour... Flash this rom here : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/44779766/IceCreamSundayFinal_Tweaked.zip
It is IceCreamSunday Final by @Jusada... It is considered the fastest & most stable rom available on XDA & the OC kernel is inclusive of the rom...
Once flashed, go to cyanogenmod settings, performance, cpu & tell me what frequencies you get offered...?
FYI : It doesn't matter what your baseband or firmware version is... Ensure that you are using CWM 5 to flash with... Also ensure that before flashing you do a full system, cache, data, Dalvik wipe to ensure a clean flash... This rom is 7.2 btw...
Stay Breezy n Be Lucky...
Pe"ACE"...
I dont know whats my phones problem but it dont worked for me -.- even max. 600Mhz...
But great thanks for your help!
LoL the first thing that entered my mind is "maybe samsung forgot to overclock" my suggestion is go to samsung and tell them to overclock that.. or simply say it's defective
approach samsung and get new phone..
man if it showing 600 dont overclock
as overclock can damage your cell
be happy with what you are having

but he should get 800 which he paid for
hey wait isnt ace's cpu like the 600mhz ones but only OC'ed to 800?
I'm done explaining
A fault with the processor probably.. ARMv6 anyway has 600Mhz by default and Ace has been factory overclocked to 800Mhz.. which is the simple reason why each Ace is so different and has so many problems regarding battery life. Overclocking is a delicate procedure..
To the point:
Just take it to the service center to get what you paid for!
Guyz my x8 ain't stable at 691 mhz.. on stock kernel ....
I tried many roms it is not stable on froyobread,gcr,gdx,kuyadroid,
And xgin...but my phone restarts smtimes whn I use
Some app it don't always reboots but sometimes it just
Freeze n reboot .... what's the max freq stable you guyz got
On stock.kernel? ??
is it.my hardware problem .... I use superchrage ...
Balanced 3 settings....can something be done will changing
The kernel help it? ???

The higest Freq that my phone was able to go up to was 787 mhz,, and It was stable at 768, If you want to stick to stock kernel,, you might try changing oc module, There are 2 oc modules one by DX and other ones By Zefie,
The best option however is to unlock your Bootloader and Use a custom kernel , according to some people unlocked bootloaders increased their phones oc capabilities .
I am running gingerdx v0.22 and CPu is stable at 768..I am currently having stock kernel.
Hi ,
I have a few begineers questions , I have a galaxy s that is running gingerbread 2.3.6 , is rooted and had a voodoo kernel (with recovery option) . I was thinking of possibilities of overclocking , can that be done with the setup I have ?
thanks in advance
You can easily overclock your phone with a root access with an application like this :
bit.ly/fnUFCD
There are lots of applications existing.
You can see on your kernel thread on this board what frequency is supported.
try Tegrak overclock or NSTools. Find other apps on Market.

thanks for the info guys , installed busybox and android overclock , but appears the kernel is not able to be overclocked as I got a message and the max frequency showing is 1000 mhz , would anyone be able to recommend a kernel that would suit - would like to keep things preety simple and straightforward at the mo

Semaphore is the best http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112908
thanks again , my phone is showing jvz suffix at end of kernel - show the semaphore jvz is the way to go ?
I am trying to avoid an expensive paperwight
Semaphore kernel can work on all gingerbread roms. So it is safe to flash semaphore 2.5 on your phone.

Will overclocking the phone significantly reduce battery life? Or cause any degradation of the phone due to excess heat?

Battery use will obviously be higher with the processor on more clock speed but there's no problem with the temperature. Remember, always overclock in minor steps,check stability and in this way you would get a stable phone

oh dear, if you cant overclock more then, you cant overclock more! Its just tough luck mate
More is not a good idea for daily use... You will get some lag in multitasking..
Best for daily use (to my point of view) is 122 / 729.. More my phone was very laggy sometimes..
how to overclock in the first place?
can someone please give me the link on how to do it??
thanks!
Bah,
Go on parameters > cyanogemmod > performance > CPU : select your frequencies, check overclock and keep on boot and reboot.
If you've got the good kernel (as naA), that's all
i'm using gingerdx v22 with stock kernal
and i can OC it To 787
but i prefer 748 or 768
it's just luck!
but 748 is good,isn't it? at least for me
You can try and play with various governors,i think some go higher....
Guys, in general, there are 2 kinds of X8 concerning hardware.
If you got lucky, then you can overclock your X8 up to 806.
On the other hand, if you are unlucky (like me), then you will NEVER be able to have a stable OC over 719. It is just a matter of hardware
i could see the min and max frequency, but i can't edit it..
when i press it,it only shows a cancel button..
is it because i have a locked bootloader?
been searching yesterday about unlocking bootloader,and it's too risky(well, i've had enough rooting my x8.. LoL)..
and regarding to the governors lists,the frequencies does not changed even though i chose a different one..
needless to say, it's still 122-600Mhz..

i'm not stupid; i know what the search button stands for!

You need to unlock your bootloader to have a custom kernel. Then you'll can overclock

Follow the steps in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1020313) and then you will be able to overclock your X8, even without unlocked bootloader.
if ever i did it, and somewhere in time i want to return to the old one, could i just delete this module??will the phone frequencies return to default??

Yes, you can delete it, but not necessarily. You can change the frequencies manually in Settings > CyanogenMod > Performance > CPU, or you can either install SetCPU to control them, so you can keep the module if you want to overclock it again later.
I can Oc to 691mhz only ....
guess am the most unlucky here... ;(
I can overclock to 729 mhz!!

anyway, when I went from v22 to v23b, the x8oc.ko on the module folder has been deleted..so i guess(not really sure) that it would be deleted when you install another rom..
