[Q] Overclocking - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, everytime i overclock my Wildfire, doesnt't matter if through cyanogenmod settings, or through CPU Master, or SetCPU. Settings goes back to 352-576Mhz after some time, how do I overclock it permanently? Also, what is the Perflock? When i click Disable Perflock, nothing happens

When I was running cm7 I had no problems with overclocking, reflash maybe?
Per flock is something in some HTC kernels that prevents over/underclocking, so its not in cm7 as it has its own kernel.

when you are using programs like CPU Master you have to check "Set on boot"
also I never had problems with overclocking

That is also up for using the cyanogenmod settings. Plus I also never had overclocking or underclocking problems.

Guys... When you overclock, what does it really do to your phone??? And what are its advantages??

Overclock and kernel question

I would like to boost my performance a little bit either through another kernel or overclocking or both. How do you overclock the Dinc, and do some kernels overclock better than others? Thanks for any help.
Certain kernels have higher overclocking ceilings than others but none are "better", per se, for overclocking. Check out setCPU or CM7 has overclocking preferences built in.

Ok cool.
I am running cm7 but also have setcpu, is one preferred over the other? And as far as overclocking, do you just start increasing the speed slowly until you get it where you want or it becomes unstable?

I would just use the built in OC of CM7, I've heard that using both can cause conflicts. And yes, just bump up your frequency bit by bit and if you start getting reboots or freezes, dial it back. For AOSP kernels, I've founds incredikernel to work really well, then invisiblek, then tiamat. Though incredikernel does have a lower OC ceiling than the others.

"kernel manager pro" in the market may also be useful for you. It keeps up to date on which kernels work specifically for your device and you can flash from the app. I'm currently using Tiamat 4.0.2. It will clock to 1228MHz

Overclock Help

Other than SetCPU apk, Is there another apk that will allow me to overclock on my evo????
There are a couple in the market. Overclock widget is one of them
We're comin from a pure power source.
I personally like SetCPU the best

You are probably aware of this but I'll throw it out just in case... You also have to be running a kernel that allows overclocking.

Yea, I think this is my problem, it won't go past 998400mhz. It says you can disable Perflock, but that doesn't do anything.
So is there no way to overclock with 2.6.35.10 htc kernel?

[Q] Overclocking MIUI

I have been using MIUI-GB as my DD after trying out many ROMs.
The free memory is an issue which i can manage easily with built-in app killer.
I was wondering how do i overclock my processor as there is no OC daemon or any other app in the ROM ??
download set cpu or similar app in market (i prefer set cpu you though) know that this will only work for you with certain kernels but chances are whatever one came with your miui version allows for overclocking/undervolting. if for some strange reason it dosent find a compatible kernel and flash it over your rom

I installed "CPU Control Lite" and oc'ed my phone to 1.2Ghz. It said you kernel does not support UV'ing. But after oc'ing, my phone is behaving strangely. Launcher is forcecrashing. While playing music, if a notification comes, the music app crashes. Is it because of oc'ing or rom issue???
Can't say for sure but if it started after overclocking than this is more than likely the cause. Try 1.0ghz

Try setcpu, or cpu tuner. Just try. I use setcpu, ov until 2ghz
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
As dem' says, try 1gHz to start. You may find that stock speeds with a better governor makes it more responsive.
Also you should have to kill apps unless they are causing problems. When you say 'built in app killer' do you mean in the app management in settings or is it an app that came with the rom?

What causes random reboot in every rom?

I wonder wat causes all the random reboot,is it got to do with undervolt,overvolt,CPU speed and minfree value?

..overvolt?
Anyway undervolting and CPU speed can definitely cause reboots. Some phones can't go beyond 1.2GHz and I know undervolting can cause instability when brought down too low.
Personally I haven't had a random reboot in as long as I can remember, but I also don't undervolt and I don't OC past 1.2GHz.
Well,I'm using sense rom in the moment,enabled swap and supercharge.. and oc it at 468-1458mhz.. =\ still reboot,does vm heapsize affect rebooting?

My phone's upper limit is also at 1.4GHz, runs stable on it, but haven't really felt the need for that. One thing that comes to mind is that your lower limit is pretty high. What governor do you use? Do you have a profile for screen off and what's the frequency fork there?
I would assume that with that setup the phone gets pretty heated, which could very easily cause random reboots. Any idea what temperature it usually runs on?

Maybe you should try lowering the upper limit to 1.2GHz for a while see if it makes any change... in the meantime it might be helpful to know:
a) Which specific rom are you using?
b) Any custom kernel?

mine used to reboot when i first had it, searched the net & it suggested the sim card.... made sure it was pushed in properly & its been fine ever since....
I found out when I use this android revolution 6.3.3 rom,and flash a music player mod by lyapota,it mix up the word,like holding home it appear recent app,but after flashing I get your personal information and if I use home long press to multitask,the whole phone will just reboot :/

[Q] Setting overclock frequencies on JMT JB8

Ive been trying to set the overclock frequencies on my phone, but they only last for a while then the max freq resets to 1026MHz. Ive tried using AnTuTu CPU Master, No Frills, and Trickster Mod...and they all do the same thing, even when I "Set on boot".
Im using the Tiberius 2.3 Kernel.
Any suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong??
Thanks.
what kernel governors are you using when settings these frequencies ? performance , ondemand, etc.??? have you tried the 2.4 to see if maybe it will fix that issue . @cl3kerner is always on top of things and his Kernel has been updated so try that see if it works if not try reporting in his thread where he would be more than happy to help you
Thanks for the reply. I haven't tried 2.4 just yet, only saw 2.3 when I downloaded it yesterday actually, will look again.
The last configuration I was trying was samsung/row , but all configurations seem to do the same. Perhaps there are some residual files from a previous kernel which is causing this? If so, is there anything I could do to properly clean it out?
Thanks
OK tried 2.4 and getting the same results.

So Cl3Kener helped me solve this. Turned out it was the power saving feature that was limiting the processor speed, as well as battery saver pro. Worth a note I guess if anyone else experiences this issue.
