Hi all!
I'm playing with setCPU and probably I found my high stable freq. to 787Mhz.
I can run quandrant till 825MHz (1300+) but it seems not very stable and sometimes freeze during normal operation.
I set 787Mhz and interactive mode on setCPU and I leave 245 as min freq.
I setup 2 profile in order to downgrade to the original 600MHz and 245 with powersave when the battery is < 20% or the temperature of the cpu is > 50.
My question are:
- Is the interactive mode the best option for our Optimus One or there's a best choice? What is the differenze of the different operating mode?
- What is the "temperature limit" of the cpu? I set 50 but my cpu start from 35 up to 39.5 during stress at the moment. Should I set 40?
- How the min freq influence the performance and the battery life? Is it good to increse the min freq (320?) too?
Many thanks and sorry for the many questions.
is set cpu stable on lg optimus one?
Hello..anyone can teach me how to overclock xperia x10
Bootloader is not unlocked. It's impossible at the moment.

First, you crack the bootloader.
When you've done that, I'm guessing you allready figured out how to OC the CPU

For now just use the overclock widget. set top two settings as high as you want up to 998 click on off screen frequency. set between 246 and next number you choose. set at boot save. define settings at what mhz you like and experiment. do not run on screen and off screen freq at max. i have had my battery sweating and even plugged in all day and not gained a single % of charge. until boot loader is cracked.... this is all you can do.

Although it's impossible today because of bootloader, note it's always dangerous and not great to overclock embedded cpus.
You can't overclock a lot, as you have a battery (X10 works about 5-10 hours with full speed - 998MHz), and the CPU only has passive elements to cool. Overclock can damage your CPU and your motherboard, stress all elements and low your battery life (battery charge and cycle of charge). (Even there's a self shutdown when too hot)
You can get an idea of overclock on Nexus forum, as we have the same CPU (Snapdragon 8250) - I saw overclock up to 1300 MHz, but it's really not looking safe to me
Thanx everyone..

Depends also on the voltage (as long as your voltage isn't increasing as you overclock, it isn't really that harmful as long as you watch the heat), and what you have your underclock speed set to with screen off (as this can in some sense reverse some of the possible "damage")...
I had my htc hero overclocked to 710 with the screen on, and underclocked 176 with the screen off and it ran a lot better.
I digress, I see no purpose in doing so when you already have a 1ghz processor that is super fast. I only really see a point in overclocking if the possible benefit is greater than the possible harm, and in this circumstance, I really don't think you would see that much benefit.

I have seen considearable difference when maxed out. however the dangers are high of overheat. ive done it once and onetime only. kept on and off screen at 998 and hat it plugged in all day with out a single gain of battery. it was like on life support and was hot enough the phone was sweating even when sitting next to a fan blowing on it constantly.:-( since then i have made adjustments to run between 700 and 998mhz on screen and min 246 and 400mhz when screen off.
if looking for better performance without the overclock and good drain of battery, download and install sysctl from market and follow settings below.
min free kb: 900000
dirty ratio:500000
dirty background:200000
vfs cache pressure:10

On SetCPU there is Set on boot- to be checked or not?

OC can damage yo device. Id say its better to hv a lil slower device than a dead device

Not in all instances. Depends on the quality of the chip. Lot of chips are capable of handling higher speeds and temps but are set lower quality assurance.
For instance, I've got a NookColor that has base CPU set at 800MHz and is now overclockable to 1.2GHz
We'll have to do stress tests on some to see what they're capable of.

Agreed.
My Motorola Defy has a Omap3630 that comes at 800MHz,stock but can be easily overclocked to 1.3GHz without a sweat.
Just depends on the chip's capacity of "Stress".

What are the best settings to have you phone's CPU speed set at? I'm looking for both good performance and good battery. Also I am using the default overclocker, what is the best one? Thank you guys for your time.

I use SMARTASS as my CPU speed governor and I set my CPU to 480-748 MHz, seems pretty stable for me.

Overclocking values differ from phone to phone. Test it out with different values and use the one which is stable for you.
This was just discussed in the IHO technical-discussion thread, as a matter of fact.
My phone is stable for most stuff at 806 MHz, but sometimes the camera will cause a freeze/reboot. So I run at a 786 MHz max. Your phone will be different; this has to do with minute physical differences between individual chips.
The thing to keep in mind when overclocking is that the processor in our phone (unlike those of many other phones) does not make use of dynamic voltage scaling. There are only two voltage levels: a lower one if the phone is running at or below (or is it just below? correct me if I'm wrong, guys) 480 MHz, and a higher one if the phone is running above. So below 480 MHz, the system will give the processor a certain amount of voltage (period), and above, the processor will get a certain higher amount of voltage (period).
Because of that, the tests that have been done indicate that 806 MHz is the sweet spot for battery efficiency when the phone is in use--and the closer you get to 806, the better. Thus, I've had the following settings for quite some time:
786 MHz min
786 MHz max
Performance governor
which has treated me pretty well. On a day of light to moderate use, I'd end up with 65-75% battery left (occasionally more like 80%), depending on cell signal where I am et al. And it gives me probably the best performance I'm gonna get out of this phone.
However, I very recently decided to change the minimum to below that 480 MHz threshold and see what a lower voltage when idling would do for my battery life. My current settings are:
320 MHz min (may change to 480)
786 MHz max
Smart*** governor
There is actually a noticeable performance decrease when I first wake the phone up, so I may switch governors as well. In any case, I've had those settings for only one full day now, but for that one day the battery life was noticeably better. I'll post an update when I've had a few more days to test.
As always, it's difficult to quantify battery life in a reliable/rigorous manner (much less a universally applicable one), so YMMV.
I've never OC'd any of my phones before but was keen to try it on the Galaxy Europa as the 600MHz CPU seems a bit weedy at times. What settings would people recommend? Ideally I would like good on-demand performance, good battery life and no frying of the CPU
Thanks
I not guaranted for the results but you can try to raise to 710. I tryeid and its work for me on any of cyanogen roms.
I use smartassV2 with a frequencies range of 122-480 Mhz. For me a longer battery life it's more important than waiting a second! And if I need to play something hard I set max to an upper freq..
my 2 cent..
Is it dangerous for Smartphone to set all CPU and GPU Frequency To Max For A Long Time.

As long as you can have means to cool it! Im not saying its ok but it will decrease the lifespan of your device substancially, especially if you just leave it jacked up all the way
You may switch CPU governor to performance. Not necessary means it will use max. freq. all the time, use will give smooth performance for games.
