{XPERIA U}[DISCUSSION] Overclocking to 1.15 GHZ - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

I just wanted to ask people because many kernels force 1.15 GHZ frequency and I wanted to ask people what do you think about it,is it safe or not and did anyone do stress test with SetCPU and is phone overheating with it.
Thanks,XperianPro.

It can do damage after a certain time. If you have it set for a long time on that frequency it will overheat! It is safe but as long as you don't use always use it. You should use it only to speed up some tasks! There is a reason why they have chosen not to set it as max frequency on stock rom.

the same ideal with u, i dont think it wll be safe for a long -time using.

I think Your CPU will be damaged when u used 1.15Ghz for a long time day to day

if the voltage used for getting 1.15ghz is the same as 1.0ghz then there is no difference...any heating up will be a minimal increase over the stock, if any
if voltage is higher...then i would imagine it would have an affect after some time as others stated

15% overclock is a joke, my Galaxy Mini was overclocked over 40% (from 600MHz to 864MHz, but i used 800MHz almost all the time), was hot like hell and still works fine now after almost 2 years and shows no signs of stopping
Unless you want your phone to last 20 years, YES, 1.15GHz is perfectly fine by me.

thats because Galaxy mini was Downclocked by samsung
other samsung devices wich have exactly the same cpu gpu are 800mhz at stock
and they can be ocd to 970MHz
galaxy mini can run those 800 mhz freqs easily because they downclocked the device

That CPU on that board was designed to run at 600MHz, so you can't call it a downclocked CPU. Galaxy Ace and Mini had the same chipset, but the CPU itself wasn't completely the same. Not all Galaxy Minis where able to go 800MHz+
Same could be said for our Xperia U, Galaxy S2 has a dual-core Cortex A9 CPU running at 1.2GHz, so does that make our CPU downclocked? Ofcourse it doesn't, because the SoC is completely different, although the cores might be the same.

I have some Questions
How can u call it a downclock when it supposed to be 600 mhz as I know
And why could Samsung downclock the phone it is better to make it 800MHZ then
I think overclock is different between all chipset
Just like snabdragon and and our ****tyThor cpu
And sorry for my English

the phones with same cpu are all running 800mhz at default but because mini and fit where low end phones they downclocked the cpus
so the people who wanted faster phone buyes phone with more mhz

B**** please, my Galaxy 3 was overclocked from 667 MHz to 1400 MHz and it still works

it is safe enough, my old xperia play was running at 1.8 ghz all the time, and it just works fine, till the screen broke (dropped the phone)
that cpu was designed to run at 1,0 ghz.

Well my old live with walkman worked to on 2.0 GHz but I could feel overheat remember that this is Novathor not Qualcomm.
So anyone brave enough to test phone with stresstest on 1.15 GHz for about two hours?
Sent from my Xperia U using xda app-developers app

There are kernel that boost cpu to 1.3 ghz... so 1.15ghz is safe for me

I read somewhere, that max safe frequency for NovaThor U8500 is 1,2 Ghz. So 1,15 Ghz should be safe enough.
Xperia [email protected] 2

It's safe i'm using my phone for almost 2 weeks at 1,15 Ghz and not a signle problem, not even overheat! I say it's 99.9% safe.

I am using 1.15ghz from about 3 months and no problems at all

I have been using 1.15 ghz for months now and I play games quite frequently and it has been safe and stable for me

I Think that the Novathor U8500 in focus, can be easly OC to 1.15 GHz without having particular trouble in fact of stability or hw issues, as it is capable of a theorical max of 1.2 GHZ ( as seen in some websites on fast google search "NovaThor U8500 max freq" )
.Hoping this is real, remember that this may affect nor the voltage but the steps that the governor has to do before reach the 1.15 GHz. Some good kernel, as most of the JB Designed kernel are set by default to max 1.15GHz.

Custom Kernels O.C

Now that we have custom kernels.. Can we set cpu to 800 mhz like HTC ChaCha ?? It uses the same cpu like our minis and is Factory Overclocked to 800mhz
If you oc to 800 your phone will burn

They are not overclocked. They are manufactured with 800Mhz microprocessors.
HTC ChaCha - MSM7227T - 800Mhz
X10 Mini Pro - MSM7227 - 600Mhz
The htc cha-cha uses a turbo version of our processor, its technically the same although its been made to run 800mhz rather than our non-turbo version

[Q] overclock

how to overclock mi x10 mini to 825 mhz?
when i set the frenquency to 768 or up the phone reboot, how can i solve this?
using minicm MiniCM7-2.1.1

It cant be solved, if its freezing at 768mHz or above then that is the maximum your cpu can handle, all cpu's have different limits even 2 identical ones, like mine can go to 806mHz max before freeze/reboot but my girlfriends can only go to 787mHz max

They are identical in the way they are manufactured but just as with a full pc processor they have differences in their tolerance levels of how far they can be pushed, its all down to the manufacturing process not being absolutely precise and exact when the cpu's are made
Simple explanation: some cpu's are able to cope with more stress than a seemingly identical cpu

What if i set the min cpu frequancy to 1200 mhz

Is it a good idea if I set the min frequency of cpu on galaxy s2 to 1200mhz

If you want to be wasting your battery quickly and have your phone as pocket heating then yes go ahead.

Not really. Your system is automatically adjusting CPU speed based on current load.

all u get is a super fast battery drain and overheated phone ( u can use it as a cooker then ) ,
if u want it to get faster use other CF scripts in extweaks if u r using siyah kernel , or overclock max to 1,3 ( but i dont recommend overclocking , u have already 1,2 Ghz )

Congratulations. You win Facepalm of The Week. Why ?
Go back, read your question again & think logically about it.
The maximum frequency of the CPU without overclocking is 1200MHz. You're setting the minimum frequency the same as the maximum, which means constant load on the CPU. What normally happens when you put CPU's, GPU's et al under load ?
They get hot.
Get the idea ?
(People really need to learn basics around here. They won't tho. Ever.)
If setting your min. frequency to the max frequency of 1200 mhz was a good idea, why would the lower frequencies exist in the first place? Wouldn't our phones just have 1200 Mhz as the only frequency by default?
Your processor would always be working as hard as it possibly can - even if all you're doing is scrolling down a page of text, it would be using the same amount of power as if you were playing a 3D game. 500 Mhz would be certainly enough to scroll down a page of text without lag, so why force it to use 1200?

tool to change cpu voltage ?

im using hotcakes 1.5 option to change clockspeed is there but i dont see option to overvolt or undervolt? thanks
Search system tuner in market

Why do you want to raise the voltage? Usually you lower the voltage even when Overclocked, on mine it's OC'ed at 1.83 GHz and undervolted between -50 mV to -75 mV depending on the frequency steps. Any way, the hardware has a tendency to perform differently for each phone/user so you'll need to find what works well for your hardware.
What are the stock CPU voltages for a Att Note. I'll looked around a bit and found some for the International Note. But, not for the ATT and TMO Note.

If you run system tuner it starts with the default voltages, I beleive it's 1375mV at 1.89 GHz, 1350 at 1.83 GHz, with a 25 mV drop for each cpu down clock, I say "I beleive" because I haven't been at stock voltages or clocks for a long time. Get System Tuner, free btw, from the market and it will till you.

Overclock to 1.6 to match note 2

I was told the Note 2 has the same processor as the S3 only it is overclocked to 1.6, is this true?
If that's the case that must mean we can overclock our S3 to 1.6 perfectly safely?
I'm just curious as overclocking is not something I would normally do, in fact I normally under clock. But if it's totally safe too then why not!

yea it does mate, mines overclocked to 1.6 ghz and you do notice a little boost in peformance and it doesnt affect battery life too much not in my experience anyway
Same kinda went funny at 1800 so keeping it safe at 1600
