[Q] A simple overclocking question - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hi all
I have recently rooted my phone and have installed advanced stock kernel. Now i was thinking of to overclock my device but after wandering over countless threads gave up. I want to overclock my phone to 1.7 ghz, have have tried KA Xperia SSpeed kernel v7 but after installing the 1.7ghz kernel my device went into a bootloop and would boot after approx 30 sec after the lockscreen appeared. Next i went over to Doom kernel but realized it was only for gingerbread (i am currently running ics .45 firmware) plus i could download the files anyway due to some network error. I could find anything else regarding overclocking, so here i humbly ask again, is there any way to overclock my device to 1.7 ghz stable? Plus there wouldn't be any risk of OC'ing to 1.7 ghz as xperia sl has the same hardware and is factory OC'ed, would there? Any Help?
Thanx in advance

anyone?

If overclocking causes bootloop then your phone can probably not take the higher frequency. Not all can.

how come? xperia sl has the same chip but it is stable while mine is not?
PS Jelly Bean!!!??? HOW?

Ur bootloader is unlocked?
And btw, every phone is different. Some take 2 ghz without a problem, others get bootloop at 1,6 ghz. Also, overclocking isnt that good. its better to use a fast gouvernor and sheduler.
U can get jelly bean with a custom rom.

yes my bootloader is unlocked... btw what do you mean by fast governor and scheduler?

Depends on ur rom, on ICS smartassv2 + noop is good, on Jelly Bean interactive(X) + sio.
Why do u want to overclock?

because my device gets laggy with a live wallpaper and also because i thought whats the harm? when sl can do it perfectly so could mine
i am on a stock rom, so can you please tell me more about those governors? i am new to this stuff

If you're unlocked then flash advanced stock kernel and then flash paranoid android 2.55, it's sooo fast!

Try using a cpu app like 'cpu master'. Use settings to find an overclock frequency that's stable. You don't have to use the full overclock frequency.

you dont understand i cannot overclock using any app. My current frequency is shown as the max frequency

u cant oc with the stock kernel

interesting development... i installed xsx krnel 1.9 ghz doesnt go to bootloop like it did with SSpeed kernel 1.7 ghz
any ideas?

ah forget it, i am better off with 1.5ghz

1.9-1.7 are the max frequencys, yes. But you use an app to lower the frequency until the phone is stable. My x10 had a 1228mhz max kernel, but my phone would only be stable at 1190mhz. Some x10 would only run at stock, no overclock.

[Q] roalex

Hi, im thinking od downloading roalex update 1 bravo what do you think are there any better kernels.thx
1) Never heard of it
2) AOSP or sense?
Its on the rom manager i have oxygen 3.3 rom od something like that
For Oxygen, I thought _thalamus' default kernel was best
What if. I wanted to change my rom how will. I het my previous settings back?
Not sure what you mean? All roms come with a kernel (otherwise they would not work) so when you install a new rom, kernel is replaced.
Rather than rom manager, I always suggest learning to do things manually using recovery. You learn more and understand more of the process.

Some kernels can go to 1190 Mhz, but most desires cannot handle this, or even 1152
yeah but i saw some people with even 1.9 on desire and someone else had stable 1382 mhz on opendeisre rom but i would like to get 1.3 ghz.yeah but i guess 1113 is nice to
1190 is the highest. Back in the open desire days it was 1305 but this was not true. A mistake was made and the incorrect multiplier was used in the kernel. It said 1305 but wasn't really. 1190 is max. Desire cannot handle more

How to have BestBattery+BestFunctions ?

Hello,
I would like to flash my Xperia Arc to have a better battery life & much functions.
I read some things...
- DooM Kernel -> What does it do ? Just permitting the Overclocking? And DownClock/Undervolt ? It is a good idea to flash my Xperia to it to gain Battery/Perfs ? Which version take ?
- Baseband Patches -> Recommanded with DooM Kernel. It's risky, isn't it ? How can we fallback to the stock baseband is case of problems ?
- What's the best ROM ? Their's a lot. Cyanogen 7.. Xperia Mod..
I need 3G, WiFi, Camera.. FM is possible.. ?
Thanks !
Depends on the user.
But DooMKernel is great and saves battery when your device is stable with undervolt

And what about Baseband Patches?

Nothing risky about that. You could easily change your baseband again using Flashtool.
Thanks.
I just saw that I can't use the DoomKernel with Cyanogen since it's a bit buggy and DoomLord is working on it.. I've try differnts things.
Thanks!

DooMKernel for CM7 is currently on hold.
But afaik DooMLoRD is also a FXP member and integrate some of his features in FXP's kernel.

Try 36 Baseband. I'm using this with Arconium 6.1 + Doomkernel and i have only 2% battery drain per hour on idle
Hello,
I installed DoomKernel + Xperia Mod + BaseBand 36 and I saw my battery drained like hell.. How can I solve it ? I set up 184Mhz-1Ghz & -100mV.
Scheduler: minmax & sio for I/O. What's the best ones for Battery ?
Thanks!

Hello. Dont forget that after install new kernel usually, battery drain lots on first charge... Try recharge when almost over and see if still happens. If still continues, you can calibrate your battery
Hello,
Thanks.
I'll google it (Calibrate)

Can I use Japanese firmware ? Also I wanna use Ram Manager pro or V6 Supercharger. V6 is troublesome for me. So I want to use Ram Manager Pro. What do you think ? And Should I flash DoomKernel in Stock ?

You need a custom kernel that allows overclocking. You also need a unlock bootloader for that. Stock kernel the kernel your using doesn't allow overclocking otherwise there not much you can do.

You really need to read to op thread again. Doomlord already have recomedations on which app to use for overclocking on his kernel.
My advice for you: stay away of overclocking your CPU. There is many other ways to boost your phone. If you want coock your cpu then you can go for it.
sent from Xplay r800i [ROM] GB 2.3.7 max_power v1.0 by sechko, Doomlord kernel v10.
try using setcpu/nofrills to overclock, setcpu it has many profile option for you to choose from.

[Q] Max frequency locked at 1300MHz

I'm currently using ARHD 33.1 and flashed the lONELyX #022 kernel, but my maximum frequency is capped at 1.3 Ghz.
Powersave is off and i've disabled EDP limitation and disabled the cap at 1.3GHz, but i still can't achieve 1.5GHz, can anyone tell me why this isnt working?
I've searched through the kernel thread but others seem to be able to get to 1.4 or 1.5, and I can't find an answer

Your kernel may not support 1.5ghz or there's a problem with the overclocking app your using.
Give me the link of the thread!

i used it till yesterday evening and 1.5 GHz was working... does it happen only with #22 LI? did you use UV or normal version? have you installed custom apps that can handle CPU max freq? have you tried to flash it again/another kernel/another kernel version and/or another hotplug?

Used the non UV version, I have SetCPU installed to handle the freq, i can set it to 1.5GHz, but it doesnt go above 1.3, even on performance governor, i've flashed different versions of this kernel, LS, LM, but none let me go to 1.5GHz.
