Hello all! Is recommended overclock your phone with stock kernel and gingerdx v25? If so, at what frequency (maximum, minimum)?
Sorry for my English
It's neither prohibited nor recommended. You can overclock Your device if You want to, but if You see that every game You play works smooth, there isn't any lags in ROM menu etc... so what for? If there are lags than You should try. Max frequency depends on Your phone - some x8 works without reboot @ 825mhz, some of them only @~700. Min frequency should be about 122, cause it guarentees that when You wake up Your phone it will happen without any delay. And as You propably know - overclocking will decrease time between chargings.
I would like your own opinion. You have overclocked your phone with stock kernel and not?
Sorry for my English
When I was on stock kernel - no. Even now, when I use nAa 11 kernel I don't need to do that There was a period of time when I overclocked my x8 only to see the diference (stable frequency 787, on 806 my x8 get reboots; I also tried lower freq. f.e. 691mhz). So yes, it was faster, but there was also a huge battery draining. So I stopped. And now on MiniCm7 2.2.0 my x8 works without charging for 4 days (sometimes even 5 ).
Ok, thanks. There are other own opinion ?
And strong home and messages in memory increase the perfomance ? How often do you advise me to overclock the phone (MAX and MIN)?
Sorry for my English
And the phone might break?
Sorry for my English
It all depends, cuz some phones can overclock at 800(?) And
Some 900 (?) But some can only do 700 and dome chant even overclock without rebooting. It all depends on your phone. But, if you ovedclock at like 1000 (even possible?) It will overheat and brake. (Or blow up )

Ok, I am a noob when it comes to OC/UV, i have searched and found this and this but i still have some doubts about undervolting, so IS UNDERVOLTING HARMFUL N SHOULD IT BE USED FOR EVERYDAY USAGE TO GAIN BETTER BATTERY BACKUP??
I am using jetpack 2.1 rom with talon 1ghz kernel (I dont use OC as its harmful) n i have set the values under voltage control app in each clockspeed - 100mV n tested thru stabilitytest app n neocore app, battery is performing considerably better but should i use it under everyday circumstances??
Sorry if I am repeating another question (I really have searched to my best efforts), just wanted to confirm coz i only have 1 phone n i am not very rich
No reason why not, I do, and there is no harm to be done unless you uv too much and get into a deep sleep situation but a re flash will sort that at very worst, but as you have stable values that work, then stay as you are and enjoy better battery

Setcpu determines that 1704mhz can be achieved, would it be safe running the GNote at that constantly does anyone know?
Hmm...
I would say, this is depending on more than only the frequency,
if you set the voltages for 1704mhz on e.g. 1650mV u'll get a very hot phone and a hot accu... this will not be good for ur phone, if you're doing this constantly.
But if u find a good compromise between voltage and frequncy, u can do this constantly.
Also you could make profiles in SetCPU so that for example if you're gaming it will set voltage and frequency to 1704mhz and if your screen is off, it setz frequency to 800mhz.
So you have to decide if u'll want to take the risk...
I hope i could help u and sorry for my bad english,

Aside from benchmarks theres no real benefit from running at 1.7ghz. Most of the time thebphone stays at 200 to 1200mhz
safe?
thought overclocking is always a risk. think nobody here will tell go do it its safe is there ?
and why would you overclock a 1,4ghz dual core in a mobile ?
Thanks, i've seen in a different thread that the voltage would need to be lowered so overheating isnt too bad.
SetCPU gives information on what frequencies are used by percentage and mine is either minimum or max so it suggested its topping out while doing stuff....
1.7ghz is too much for a constant setting.
I had my phone at 1.7 and while watching Netflix on 3G, it would get TOO HOT. and i mean TOO HOT.
So yeah guys, as tittle says, i'm now at last set up sucessfully the Ginger DX v22 rom and Alfs Kernel v06 and now i would like to overclock.
As i went in CyanogenMod settings under performace and CPU, i saw that the min CPU frequency is 122 mhz (can be up to 806mhz) and max CPU frequency is 600 (can be up to 806 mhz).
So i wondered maybe some1 of you uses this ROM and Kernel togerther and can suggest me what is the MIN/MaX frequency i can set for phone to RUN it stable.
(I mean in both, in "min cpu frequncey" what can be max, and in "max cpu frequency" what can be the max.
And should i use setcpu app or just TICK the boxes in the performace menu.
Thanks.
122MHz~787MHz with smartassV2..that stable for me.but now i use 600 no OC anymore
Okay will try it out. But why no OC anymore? Stopped for games and new start for battery?
LOL..i dont install any game.

With 787mhz, i got random reboots each after 15 mins, i think it's because of overheating, will try lower frequency.
its depand on cpu..mine stable at 787 you try 768..i guest its ok
for me best is min 122 and max 748 whit ondemand
you dont need set cpu just set performance menu thats all you need
It's kinda stable at ~768 mhz BUT....
but it very often when playing games says me to "force close" some kind a "call log"
and it pauses the game, and often pisses me of ...
Can i delete it, because i don't even know what is it.
My phone is stable on 768mhz

hi.
is over clock harmful for x8 cpu?if its not.give me the best range for over clocking
It's hard to say what range is safe, cause it depends on Your x8's CPU. One x8 is stable at 787mhz, the other is unstable at 728. If You're lucky Your device will work without reboots even on +806mhz You should try by Yourself where's the limit of Your x8's CPU
My device works at 787mhz without reboots, but I set max frequency at 729, cause I don't need more
My x8 work at 787 too... nothing reboots
i mean can overclock decrease CPU life?
I have just updated to Cyanogenmod 7.2 stable on my P990 Optimus 2x (Fido Canadian version).
When I go to the CPU settings I cannot change the min/max frequencies or select a CPU governor.
I have done some research and found kernels like Vork and FauxDS, but they are for 7.1 nightlies so I am not sure if it is a good idea to flash them.
What I am most afraid about is the possibility of getting the black screen of death while my phone sleeps (it happened once already but it stopped after I changed to a different charger and reflashed CM7.2).
The reason why I want to change the settings is that there tends to be scrolling lag (my old HTC Desire Z was faster!) and there is also a bit of lag waking up the phone (lockscreen does not appear instantly when pressing power button).
Does anyone know what is the best kernel I can flash to enable frequency/governor changes in CM7.2 stable? I would prefer not to change the ROM if possible as I am kinda nooby in comparison to the XDA community in general. Thanks for any help.
I suggest you try Etana kernel. It has the things you need. Also use CPU master to set profiles and minimum CPU frequencies. I used something like min freq 352 MHz when asleep (don't worry doesn't drain battery) and I had no lag whatsoever.

Are you referring to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427646 ?
If so, do I just flash the zip off the sd card using ClockworkMod? And what are the differences between lite and DS?
Thanks.
All right, after reading, I determined I don't need LOC/HOC/DS as I don't intend to raise the max frequency, I just want to raise min frequency.
Installed the Etana kernel via CWM and it works. I can raise minimum frequency, though I still cannot see a governor option! Any idea how to get my governor setting back?
You can use CPU master and set some profiles. It's not exactly the same as governors but it's as close as it gets and it gets the job done pretty well. As far as I remember there were two governors for O2X - powersave and performance. I've always used performance and I can't tell if there's a HUGE difference in battery usage. I guess performance utilizes higher CPU frequencies when the device is asleep and somehow scales faster to even higher frequencies when needed to. But this might be complete crap as I am not too much into how CPUs work...
And please use the THANKS button (right below the user name), it kind of forum etiquette and it keeps people motivated to help others. Thank the Etana developer too.

Thanks for letting me know, I didn't realize there was a thanks button at first haha.
Fixed!
As for now CPU Master in his profiles let's you choose governor. We have only 2. Power save nd Performance.
