How far can you push your defy?

As the title says whats the max o/c can you get out of your defy?
Im on standard 2.1 and can get 1300mhz @ 80vesl and get 1388 in quadrant.
So if your a o/c nutter and try an get the max out of everything tell us what ya can get!

I'm getting 1348 at the stock 800 mhz :/ Got about the same when overclocked. So, meh.

1350/80 stable, 1409 in quadrant. (stock rom)

Pays ROM v5
Quadrant: 1405
setVsel: [email protected] (haven't tried higher than 1100Mhz yet)

I got 14xx (no trick) with 1000 @ 50 and 16xx (no trick) with 1200 @ 62 on finland 2.2.

For how long and how hot did your Defy get?

it ran for about an hour at 1350, and the max temprature was 39°C as i recall. based on abc's results, that jit in 2.2 is a big performance hit, looking forward to the official update

Just ran 1400mhz @ 95vsel
1508 on quadrant
Ran stability test for 2hrs30mins @28°c (had it sitting on an icepack haha)
Stock 2.1 and its very snappy.

just run [email protected]
quadrant 1709 1st score, 1671 2nd score.
2.2.1 froyo, 3.4.2-155

i got 1589 with 60/1200

Can running such high frequencies and vsels regularly damage the CPU? I'm kind of scared of toasting it, so i stopped at 1100/60 (scaled with setvsel)

i dont think so... did the stability test for around 15 minutes and the temp stays at 38 C
60/1200 with threshold at 80%, everything is so smooth

Hmm, i know have it at 62/1200, with threshold at 60%. 80% makes it feel a little laggy.
Hopefully the processor will last the life of the phone at these settings!

CPU?

My phone has been freezing sometimes, and I think that maybe my phone isn't stable i have it at 600-28 800-38 1000-52 so what's wrong? How do I even use a stability test to check if it's okay?

There's a built-in link for Stability Test in SetVsel, you can download it from Market. Try to set 30vsel for 600MHz, and 40vsel for 800MHz, 28 and 38 was the stability limit for me. Maybe 52vsel should be increased to 55-58vsel.

Alrite, I put it at 30,40,& 58. The stability test ran the cpu 15 times in 25 min. How's that??

IMHO 52 vsel is definitely too low for 1000. I never get completely stable going below 55-56, I keep it at 58

52 is ok..i have 48 on 1000

my limits are [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected], these are stable. 28 for 600 and 38 for 800 is too low (at least for me). i dont think 52 for 1000 is too low.

that is just my experience. I have never tested below 55 on CM7 though, I have just assumed it to be too low since that was my conclusion with other roms. It would seem fine below the 55 mark but I would experience random unexplained freezes and reboots. I leave it on 58 now because it has seemed to cure the random problems.
Everyone's mileage will vary!

Thanks a lot, but are the results of my stability test alright?( 15 cpu runs in 25 min.)

Make sure to run the stability test at each frequency

[Q] Motorola Defy OverClocking concerns?

Hello,
About a week ago I bought a Defy and I immediately rooted and played around with it. One thing I did (that many of you do) is overclocking it. Now, heres my concern. Will overclocking it ruin my CPU? How long will it last if im ocing it? Here are what Im running (i used Setvsel to OC). Im on a 3 year contract, so I really just want it to last that long at least.
This is on the stock Froyo 2.2.1 telus build for Canada:
Vsel1 [email protected]
Vsel2 [email protected]
Vsel3 [email protected]
up_threshold : 85%
Quadrant flux from 1480-1550 (those are the two Ive got from the two tests)
The temp is usually at 30C and highest is about 36C ive seen so far.
Is this safe? The phone is very stable and I notice no battery drain. Thoughts?

Which rom gives the best battery life on Defy

hi
I was looking for a rom with best battery... please suggest .
Comparing Official CM7.1 , miui 1.10.7 , and latest barebones.
Kindly give approximate battery times of these latest roms . will be very usefull in making decision.
Thanks ahead

You can try Motoginger, it has very little battery drain. But the backup will really depend on your usage.

I think battery depend on your usage.

I think Cmiui version 1.7a or 1.7b...Both have battery for 2 days and some hours after that

I think it depends more on your CPU Setting (Voltage e Clock) than ROM version. I am using CM7.1 with lower voltage settings and the battery lasts for a whole day with 3g on.

I've been on MIUI 1.9.3 for a week now with 2 days battery life with moderate use.

I will try yours.
I use WajkIUI 1.12.02 ICS and my battery drains 10% per 8 hours (at night). Is it normal? I expect max 5% for idle state per a night.

My Current Stable Defy Setup

if anybody was wondering how far a defy can be pushed but still be stable i think ive found the answer.
im running CM 7.1, overclocked to 1.3 ghz and have been at this clock rate for 3 months+ and have had NO problems. i have scored over 2700 on quadrant standard and the OS runs silky smooth. the overclocking program i use is setvsel off the android market.

Cool....
Mine is 1ghz normal CM7.2 NIGHTLY from Quarx. It's very stable and fast for me.
Playing Modern Combat 3 without lag

I have dual boot with CM7.2 nightly (default OS 1.1ghz OC) and CM9 Epsylon 6th April 1 ghz OC.
Both works pretty fine and stable.
