overclocking is not advised as the oem set the clock speed to an optimum value...below it you will lose performance and above it you will force your cpu to age early.
for gingerbread you dont need to OC at all...however for ICS OC helps to run smoothly...i dont overclock above 1.2gzs...this is a safe value and wont push the cpu to the limits.

no OC and works fine

I used 1,4 GHz for a week on ICS and my phone is still going strong, but don't take the risk. If you can't stand the lag, use Jelly bean or Gingerbread.

Why nothing about underclocking?
Well i use underclocking than over clocking....my phone needs to survive the longer power couts in my location

one +factor of underclocking..... less battery drain ^^

For daily use i set min 245 and max 806 and it's ok. Battery hold longer.
I OC to 1.4; 1.6 to individual apps like Real Racing.

When playing hard games 1.6 gHz, but for daily use i dont overclock it at all, or i just overclock it to 1.2 gHz.

Im on locked bl and just use all day 1024 Mhz with performence with antutu cpu master pro and cpu spy plus (new on the playstore, very good app) and just running fast with Jelly sandwich 7.1 and in 1 word... Just flying !!!
Send to ya face with my flying Xperia Neo V with Jelly Sandwich 7.1 + Cheese !!!

Safe OC is 1.4 IMO.
But every silicon chip is different and you may or may not get stability issues after overclock.
Also, overclocking is like smoking. Though you enjoy it, you're effectively killing yourself.
If you ask me, I never OC my phone.
And @Pandemic, don't use performance governor,
It kills your phone without overclock.
Also, it causes battery drain...

Comparing oc with root, in a matter of killing your phone, is plainly stupid.

You my friend, don't know what you're talking about.
You manipulate hardware when you
Overclock. But it's a completely harmless software manupulation when you root.
So you can root and still not kill your phone

Moved thread to Q&A Let's keep things nice everyone, happy discussing!

1.9ghz for gaming

1.4Ghz bcoz Arc S uses the T variant of the chip which seems like just an exact copy at a higher clock.

my neo runs at 1.4g, 1150mv
my opinion
oc at higher voltage, bad
oc and undervolt a bit, ok

Mate,if you brick your phone software,that can be easily fixed with Flashtool,SEUS,PC Companion etc.If you brick your phone hardware,that piece of hardware become useless,and must be replaced.So you can't compare bricking hardware with bricking software.

[Q] What is the best OC application?

Good evening guys. I started this thread because I'm a bit confused on what is the best OC for our SGA. Can someone help on this?
I´m using No-frills CPU Control. If it is the best, don´t know but it works and it is free

I don´t use OC Kernel atm and i never tried out how high my Ace can go.
There are differents in how high u can go, try out at your own Risk
My phone gets into a boot loop if I overclock it to 883MHz, so be careful while overclocking. You might kill your ace

I can do 960 but it force restarts when ever it gets hot.. so 940 is stable for me... guess you are lucky after all..

you can use setCPU application. You can buy it from market. But I prefer not to OC my phone as its drains battery and harmful too...
I'm using SetCPU (I love it since it allows to create profiles, like charging, screen off, etc...). I'm overclocked to ~860Mhz without any problems.

overclocking is too much desired.... but in a hot condition .... keep ur ace cool at normal MHZ of 800 else u can end up of excessive battery heating ,, retarding battery life...and may be a processor burn ....

LWW Normal Temperature for OC ?

Hi guys, I'm trying to overclock my lww and I've been running some benchmarks to see the results. I'm concerned about the temperature - I don't know much about mobile overclocking and my question is what temperature is safe for my phone ? Currently I'm running stability test - cpu and gpu testing on 1.6ghz and the peak temperature is 38 degrees. What can you tell me about it ?
I'm not sure if the LWW has an SoC with a CPU thermal sensor.. Its probably the battery temperature.. Even so.. anything below 40-45 degrees should be just fine.. Phone should reboot on overheating I guess.. Most phones heat up anyways on charging so you should be ok.. As always overclocking will reduce battery life.. so will constant higher system temperature..
Thanks for the reply. So i guess 1.4 should be just fine for mainstream overclocking :fingers-crossed:

I'm using KRsH Kernel v3.0 ICS with MiniCMSandwich Lite Final v4 AOSP. Pretty good I would say. You mus tweak it a little bit for best performance.
You can overclock upto 1.9 GHz using rage kernel. But it seems very heavy on battery. My advice Is upto ~1.4Ghz .. Temp. Is max upto 38 on heavy usage.

advice about bootloader/overclock

I want unlock bootloader on my ray mostly because of overclock and now wont to now how much is really performance improvement with overclock, in other words does it pay of the risk of loosing warranty?
thx
Unlock bootloader and overclock only if you aren't satisfied with your current performance ... It surely sounds sweet but You will surely void your warranty by overclocking.... If you are a new bie then I don't recommend overclocking because you may brick your device or worst burn your CPU... It is must to have enough basic android experience such as rooting first.
Sent from my WT19i using xda app-developers app
I am not new i have ray half year now and i was have x8 for 1 year before ray and it was have unlock bootloader, custom kernel, overclock and many other mods, i know android pretty well, i just want to ask someone who overclocked ray is he sadisfied with performance and does it worth
Okay so go ahead ... I don't have ray but walkman .. I've overclocked it and its worth it...
Sent from my WT19i using xda app-developers app
If u unlock ur bootloader it will void ur warranty. It will be good if u overclock it, like others say.
I've seen some reports about ppl burning their phones because of OC....
I would not really recommend it. 1GHz is enough for your phone being smooth.
But if you must OC it, be careful and don't overdo it. Don't OC to like 1.6GHz - 1.8GHz like some sorry dumbasses do.
After all It's better to have a working phone then a burned one
I'm not trying to be a smartass here, just trying to make you think twice before doing it
According to my experience 100mhz =+2 max fps u can use supercharger v6,built.prop n init.d tweaks these won't affect your phone's life

Yeah, already did all of that

you can relock bootloader
i'm on 1.6 GHz on JellyBean on xperia mini and it is stable
I clocked my phone to 1.5Ghz and this is more than perfect. I don't have fps issues in games anymore (at least those I've played yet) and the phone doesn't seem to be too hot. It feels more like charging the battery, so I think there's no problem.

Great to know this, I overclocked my xperia mini pro to 1.2ghz and I was wondering if its still safe to overclock to 1.4ghz.
thx for information!
I clocked my phone to 1.5 and it's perfect for everyday use.Now that the cold months come it would be even better, not that I felt more heating though.. I still get a 2-day battery time thanks to the power saving options of the kernel and the rom.
Which is the best method to overclock.

[Q] Best Overclock Settings? i Need help!

Hey guys , thanks for clicking the thread. So thanks to you guys at XDA developers i managed to root my phone and unlock my boot loader on ics . So i downloaded this app called no frills CPU and i overclocked my phone to 1.8ghz .
The settings on no frill where:
max 1,8 min 1,8
governor: smartassv2 ( also tried on demandX and others ...)
I/O: noop
. I am on the stock ICS rom and i think i have doom lords kernel installed . So any ideas why the quadrant score is around 1400? . I've seen on YouTube etc people getting more than 2000 and some exceeding 4000. So just wondering why it is so low. DO i need to install custom roms to make it more faster? i did some searching about but i still dont get how people get such high scores. since i have overclocked my phone seems a bit more responsive but i have not seen a mega boost in speed any help?
for start change that minimal clock freq.! Do you have any idea what you are playing with?
if max is at 1.8GHz, why min should be also at 1.8GHz?? logic?
go max to 1.4GHz, above that there is no point on the long run..
1.8Ghz ...ur diggin ur own grave..1.4Ghz is more than enuf with a proper rom...nd bechmarks are silly..:silly:

Mate,a suggestion :
First of all ask such questions in General chat thread
Next,1.8 for normal use is like Frying your phone
Reduce to 1.4 for normal use,
And lastly,people who've replied are experienced guys and know what they are doin and when they suggest,I wouldn't like to go against and be a dumbass
There's a reason why people tell you not to Oc your phone of normal 1gHz to 1.8gHz !
