(Request) overclocking s3 mini - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does any body know how to overclock our s3 mini

You need an overclock kernel. But there is no one yet I think.

From what I know it isn't safe to even attempt to overclock ST-Ericsson chipsets.

What if you overclock without raising voltage? Then it should be harmless (?)

this should really be in the Q&A section of forums

This phone has U8500 processor. If board is U8500 then CPU is also U8500
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app

No, this phone has a processor U8420 NovaThor but on the ST-Ericsson does not have it. On the Internet, there are rumors that there is a newer version of U8500.
Even if you were to oc to 1200MHz it's still a lot OC itself really depends on the particular piece.

Any results plss

Wanna proof that CPU is U8500?
Cause i have one
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app

OK give it to us ....it is strange ...because in every tech data is mentioning u8420 only on ST E. site it don't exist.
If it is U8500 then OC kernel won't be a problem I think.

Is there any way we can check what processor we have in our phones?

[Q] Minecraft

Hi. My Question is there isn't minecraft pocket edition for my X8 (2.3.7)?
I give you thanks if u helped.
I tried to install it long time ago(it was 2 days ago) but i couldn't.
It's a heavy game fo x8 i think :sly:
Sent from my E15i using xda premium
Answered lots of times.
Minecraft Requires an ARMv7 processor, the X8 has ARMv6.
Its impossible. Even with Chainfire and OC.
IM-POSS-IB-LE!
1. Give up.
2. Install minecraft on your pc.
3. Enjoy

Thats not really possible, you will need take your X8 apart, get the right chips that will work with your x8, not break a thing and put it back together...
I'm not recommending it so if you really want to play minecraft on you're phone, go buy a new one. :/
Please click the "thanks" button if i helped!

then play on ur s3. sgm cannot support 3d games because of weak gpu. The mali -400 in the s3 can run it fine.
the first release and above of gta 3 is completely compatible with galaxy mini as it is created both for adreno and arm v6
I had played it a bit months ago without any modification
i wan try it on my mini but nvm i got it working

U probably downloaded a rip off sound one. No sound makes it run "smoothly". If u download the one with sound, then it'll lag like hell unless u overclock to like 7xx mhz above.
aaa ok so sounds = lags
Sent from my GT-S5570 using xda app-developers app
whats 7xx hrz?

A frenqiecy of processor as you like. It can be 745 MHz or other

[Q] S3 mini Gpu Overclock?

S3 gpu s can be oc to 700 mhz.this topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827635
Can I do it to my S3 mini? Is it need to "only root" or "root+kernel"?
Sorry for bad English.
There is no kernel yet to overclock this phone.
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda premium
If kernel is ready can I do it ? And is s3 mini gpu quad core?
It's a single core Mali-400MP GPU.

Strange, Wikipedia says it's quad core

Your getting specs confused with galaxy S3 that's quad core. S3 mini is dual core.

On wikipedia it says that its single core gpu, but thats wrong (?)

Yes that's right GPU is graphics display chip which is single core Mali-400. Processor chip is Dual Core.

My friend has a phone that has single core mali400. We both ran antutu benchmark and he got 3d score around 1500 and i got around 2500.. hows that posible?

check the resolution. The Higher it is, the lower fps and score but also have addittional effect and more detailed.

check the online reviews
from what i know of motorola's with android they have had a few bugs to do with the wifi
They all say its a good phone but its firmware is a bit crap... but I can sort that lol bit of rooting and a nice new custom rom can solve it. What would you do?
Sent from my GT-I8190N using xda app-developers app
Idk about rooting stuff. I had Motorola phone before this one and it was pain in the ass to root. Sometimes rooting isn't even possible thanks to locked bootloader.
Also its CPU is x86 based so idk how much apps are supported.

so did a comparison of your choice
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=5033&idPhone2=3621
S3 mini has a higher pixel density
others than that S2 does look to have better specs
S2 also heats up pretty quickly
I had it for 2 weeks .not recommended. Miles away from samsung.

Just a curious question. How come galaxy ace is in the legacy and low activity part? I mean shouldnt this device be not in this section? I am not complaining, just curious...
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda app-developers app
There are many hi-end devices available now...
SGA has an ARMv6 processor with 800 MHz processor, it does not have official support beyond GB.
Comparing it with today's devices, this device is waaaay too old...
