[Q] Oveclocking Sony Xperia Z1 - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How can I overclock my Sony Xperia Z1? And how much speed can be achieved with overclocking, actually to which clock can it go so it can work normally?

Man sorry for my English but you are a dunderhead.
The Xperia Z1 have got a Snapdragon 800 with 2,1 GHz (real) clocking.
The max possible clock on these CPU is 2.3 GHz.
You will not notice any faster experience.
But will notice little more heat and maybe the CPU will get danger.
S800 is a very strong Processor.
When you have lags than deactivate the animation or delete some useless apps.
But when so think you know more here please:
When you will overlocking then backup ta-> unlock bootloader-> flash doomloard kernel.

if you rich 2.5ghz X 4 and no damage on the phone I think this will be good enough.

[Q] Xperia Z battery life with underclock

Hello all,
I'm planning to buy a Xperia Z but I'm also interested by the Xperia ZR that has a better battery life but that is harder to find where I live.
So I'id like to know whether the Xperia Z has a good battery life, let's say a day in advanced use, and no lags if underclocked @800-1000MHz.
Thanks in advance.

If you buy an unlockable device (not from a carrier) undervolting with a custom kernel will make the most difference
@ kingvortex: Thanks for the link but I'd already read the thread and I didn't really find an answer. I saw that for some users underclocking wasn't working properly... Does the problem still exist ?
@ DrKrFfXx: Yeah I won't buy it from a carrier, and I plan to underclock the Z if I buy it, freeze or unistall some apps etc. But I don't want to lose performance. Is the interface and most of apps very smooth at 800MHz ?
Thanks.

Is laggy at that speed.
But don't confuse undervolt with underclock, mister.
Undervolt as the name implies, is lowering the voltage of the processor to generate less wattage and thus, less heat and battery consumption.
You can undervolt your device to consume the energy of the stock 1000mhz and retaining 1500mhz. Undervolting combined with a slight underclock, say to 1350 will achieve decent performance while mantaining great battery life.

Yeah I knew it, that's just a habit for me to say underclock ^^
Anyway thanks for your answer. If at the end of the week ZR isn't available here I'll turn my choice on the Z.

New to android systems, I want to try and improve my battery life and the last thing on my list after looking about was underclocking.. I've got a rooted z3 and the rom toolbox app, after reading the comment what would I need to do to get an ideal battery saver?

[Q] Few Questions about Xperia Z

I am a Xperia SP user, plan to buy a Xperia Z ASAP. I have few questions about it.
Q1- What about camera? I know that has 13.1MP. I'm very disappointed with my SP's camera even that is 8MP. Pictures are very noisy, works bad in low light etc.
Q2- Why benchmark of Xperia Z is same/low than Xperia SP even Xperia Z has 2GB RAM+Quad Core Processor? Usually i get 23500+ with my SP(4.3) on Antutu.
Q3- What about Kitkat update of it? Is it make phone smoother or increase performance? What is the benchmark score of it after Kitkat update on Antutu.
Thanks in advance.

1) IMHO, the camera is surprisingly good but I also always put my photos through adobe light room.
2) dunno. I'll run a benchmark on 4.4.2 for you.
3) lots of people are complaining after complaining the update didn't come fast enough. For me, it's flawless. Just force GPU rendering, reboot and good to go. That fixed my notification slider issue. I have better battery life than I did on 4.2.2. I'll have to run a benchmark for you.
Edit: just ran antutu. Got just under 20000. I'm guessing alot of the difference may have to do with the high resolution screen on the Z. The screen is 1920x1080.

dont rely too much on benchmarks. any day xz is better than xsp.:good:

[Q] Why SP get better benchmark score than Xperia Z

Until yesterday, i was an Xperia SP user but today i move on Xperia Z.
Now i'm on 4.3, i' not sure why i get better benchmark score with SP(antutu- 23500+) but with Xperia Z(antutu- 20000) even Xperia Z has a Quad Core Processor, 2GB RAM & Same GPU.
Can anyone please explain that.
Thanks in advance.
Mainly because the SP has a 720p display compared to the Z's 1080p, therefore there is less strain on the GPU during certain parts of the benchmark.

This.
Try it on your computer if you're still confused about it - set resolution lower, benchmark, set higher, benchmark, compare.
Also, consider the fact that the dual core processor in the SP is clocked faster than the XZ. So in single threaded apps/benchmarks it will most likely outperform the quadcore as the extra cores aren't being utilized.
The majority of apps out there are single threaded so it's possible that antutu's tests favor single threaded apps? This is just speculation though.

Need to Underclock and Disable Touch Boost (rom kitakt .108)

Hi xda, i own a z1 and its currently running kitkat rom build number 14.4.A.0.108, rooted and unlocked bootloader
What kernel can i install that supports underclock the cpu to 1,4 ghz, because i feel that at 2,3 ghz its just an overkill. And the device heats up a lot.
Also how can i disable the touchboost feature, the cpu was at 300 mhz during idle, but when i touch the screen its jumps up to maximum frequency, how can i disable this ?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
If u just allow z1 run in 1.4ghz, i think u need buy another phone

well the phone is given by someone to me, so no need to buy another phone, also i really liked the build quality
i am not heavy gamer or anything like that so i think 1,4 ghz will be more than enough

CPU Overclocking?

Hello, it´s me. I was wondering if there´s any way to overclock my old Xperia E1. Is there?
I don't think so. There's no kernel for Xperia E1 which supports overclocking and I don't think that it will ever have...
E1 always had heat issues, but If you want to overclock it, oh boy, god save that phone from dead
It would be better if the GPU could be overclocked, and not the CPU
