What is max/min MHz and governor?
1.2 ghz max, 200-something min, smartassv2 is what I was using.

Hmmm,
I use 1.6ghz on my play. I've tried 2.0ghz but to be honest the phone just gets alot hotter. I did'nt notice much of a speed increase at all.
So my vote is 1.6ghz if your phone seems to handle it. I still get great battery life and MAX out my grand theft auto III .

if u need more battery life, set the cpu into min.. overclock your cpu too high for a long time can make a problem.. for me 1.2ghz is enough.. for the governor, smartass is the best...
The answer you seek no one can tell you exactly.
For me the best clock is 1.4Ghz, and i use Ondemand because smartass bugs my phone.
And every phone even if they the same they handle diferent, there are phones that can´t handle more than 1.2Ghz.
You have to try it for your self, like trial an error.
Im using
MAX 1,8GHZ
MIN 1,8GHZ
GOUVENOR: BRAZILIANWAX
Its runs like hell, but battery drains a lot.. i can use it 1 day then i have to charge it...

Agreed. That's just asking for trouble.

It doesnt run this all day long... well, only for qudranthing u know?
by normal usage and so, im using frequences between 1GHZ and 1,4GHZ
Was only a joke to see your reactions
I use 1,4 GHz max and when my screen turns off then max. 300 MHz.

Total noob question, is it safe to overclock? If I use setCPU to slow the processor down once it gets over a certain temperature will I be okay? I am just worried about melting the phone.
I use setcpu I keep my Max frequency at 1157 and my min frequency and around 422 that way my phone doesn't have to use much power if it doesn't need to. I usually run the smartass governor or conservative. Its very safe as the kernels wont let you clock past speeds that would overheat your phone.

overclocking its so last year, try underclocking! the battery life is awesome

Derp.
Just make sure the "set on boot" box is unticked in SetCPU and you shouldn't have any problems.
Thanks everyone!
Hei bro, I'm new at here. What I wanna ask is, with Android revolution 3.5, and Buzz 1.6 GHZ oc kernel, which setting at setcpu is recommended. I'm on smartass scaling currently with max at 1.6 GHZ.
frm bert2662's DHD
Smartass will scale up in a smarter way On demand I found to be amazing for performance, feels like DHD is running, but the battery drain is big because it scales straight upto 1.6ghz once you touch the screen or when in demand. So in 5 mins of browsing I'd see my battery go from 70 to 62%. So I keep it on Smartass.
You can use ondemand ,and in advance tab, choose set on boot
Sampling Rate 10000
Up Threshold 95
Ignore Nice Load 1
Powersave Bias 200
This also can give you longer battery life..
but when I was on d smartass, the device will be laggy, lol,
Ok, I'll try to set those setting on the advance tab.
frm bert2662's DHD
Oops in on demand scaling, it rili suck the battery well, nw gonna try smartass scaling again..

What is the highest MHz that i can go up to without risking my phone too much? My ROM and Kernal lets me go up to 1920 but thats probably not the best idea.

you have reason.... NO GOOD IDEA lol
in a kernel thread (a lot of time ago...) i was read... that was not recomended overclock avobe of 1600 Mhz... And atention important!!! don´t underclock down 170Mhz more or less (because can be the devece cannot exit from standby mode when you unlock the screen....) i cannot remember what was be the thread but i really believe that there is not a concret limit for overclock....
sure that it´s not good any tipe of overclock for improve the performance...
but i have a hero overclocked at 714 mhz (factory stock at 525 mhz) since 2009 and NO PROBLEM never,,,,
and my DHD overclocked at 1200 mhz (with a quality kernel in mode smartass)
and underclocked at 245 mhz more or less and no problem....
judge by your self but use the common sense... cheeeers
At the moment i have it on smartass to 1459 max and 230 min and it seems fine. Do i just judge it on the CPU temp, and if it stays quite low (Around 30c) then im fine?

it depends buddy...
maybe its well.... the normal temp. of my batt. in use is 33-35º (but here in spain we are now at 30º !)
but my question is... are you really sure about its neccesary overclock our DHD?
I think that still DHD supports well all kinds of software with 1 GHZ of power...
maybe for a future thinks....or for gamming but always u can overclock for use a game and then return to 1ghz...
it´s only a suggestion... maybe another OP uses the processor of different mode...
The overclocking limit differs from device to device, so there is no general answer.
As a rule of thumb, when you start getting random revolts or crashes, you have gone too far.
If you want a more professional way, just slowly turn the clock of your CPU up and run a stress test after each time. It takes a bit more time but should get you pretty good results.
How long should i leave the stress test running for?
The reason i want to overclock it a little is that it just runs a bit more smoothly with it over clocked a bit. Just everything in general seems a bit better to use, its not really for gaming etc.
What is the max overclock in this phone?? tnx!
Differs on every phone, most go to 940 or 902 stable, if you go higher you will get crash and reboots, but it is possible your gio is not stable above 883 , just try it out, it wont get it bricked

844
844 is the highest stable you can get, but you can go up to 921 mhz but you can get screen freeze and you will have to remove your battery and restart.
I've had problems with over 806, but recently I put it up to 825 and it's stable so far. I really don't understand how some can go over 900, the phone will become unusable. It also seems to be more stable with minimum freq being set to 122 not 245. Currently I have 122-825 with smartassv2 scaling and it's working fine.
One more thing. I have more luck oc'ing with cyanogenmod built-in CPU governor, setCPU with different profiles seemed to crash my call answering dialog too easily. So if you use smartassv2, there isn't much point to use setcpu for screen-off profile.
overclock
in my opinion best clock for daily usage is 806MHz

This.
Others are just stating their own experience.
True, everyone has other mhz that is stable, you just need a bit luck

Just a quick question:
I know how to adjust my Min and Max frequency, but which governor should I use?
My ROM is GalaxyICS-KANG-beta3, and the default governor is ONDEMAND. Max CPU frequency is set to 902 MHz and Min is 122 MHz, the default.
Which of these settings, if any, would you recommend I change? I'm a little intimidated by the sheer amount of governors available to me...

I'm not entirely sure how all of them work, but ondemand is the most neutral choice, that's why it is the default governor on most roms.. it chooses CPU workload according to need (on demand).
Smartass is similar, except it keeps CPU usage to minimum when screen is off (it has a built in screen-off profile). SmartassV2 is an upgraded version of smartass. It's based on Interactive governor, but there are differences on how cpu usage scales up and down.
Minmax uses only minimum and maximum values. When your phone is idle, it uses minimum.. when it's not idle, it's always at max value.
Performance keeps CPU at max all the time. Powersave does the opposite - keeps at minimum. Conservative avoids using high values when possible.
So if you don't need anything special, then ondemand or smartassv2 are the best choices with compromise between performance and battery life imo.
my gio is 940MHz

it seems that my gio is stable at 940Mhz, it got one day 1Ghz but over a day he crashd and i could not set it back to ghz... xD
Installed the JokaWild v3 ROM on my Play and flashed the DooMKerneL v14 ,now i wanna know how to do a safe OC.
I'm using No-frills CPU ,can you tell me the best settings for good and safe OC to XPERIA Play?
Thank you
I dont generally OC my phone beyond 1.2 but you can use this app to run a sereies of tests to determine which OC speed is best for your phone as all phones are different.

I don't overclock mine past 1.4. My play actually reboots if I go 1.6 or more.
I Overclocked my phone to 1.5 and it worked fine. Then tried overclock to 1.6 ,and it's really working good! no bugs ,very fast and the battery stays cool.
I'll stay with my 1.6Ghz overclock ,I think it's enough
What governor / IO scheduler are you guys using? i'm in the same position (jokawild / doomkernel v14 and just installed nofrills cpu) and have read the FAQ, but the version i have seems to have considerably more governors than what has been listed
EDIT: list explaining the governors is here

I'm on SmartassV2.
I once asked this same question ot DoomLord, maker of DoomKernel about which governor and IO to use for best gaming and all around performance.
His recommendation (whihc I have been using since and saw a noticable difference) was to use
Governor: Performance
I/O: BFQ
and I overclock mine to 1.2ghz. My first android phone i oc'd too much, heard a popping noise and BAM.....bu-bye. So I dont go too far..
I generally step up the speed one step at a time until I hit errors that cannot be explained or I get force quits because the phone is running too fast. I suggest going slowly and testing things out but using the governor Performance while the phone is changing. Right now I'm doing okay with smartass v2 at .60/ 1.5 ghz. I might try bumping it up to 1.6 ghz and see how that works tomorrow.

Epic It is like the phone has no battery cuz on this governor, the phone runs at max frequency.

I know I'm mad late, but I was wondering why my phone kept rebooting. I uninstalled all overclocking apps so I thought my profiles would return to normal. Turns out I must have accidentally set the profile to 2ghz max and 2ghz min somehow. My phone was super lagging and thank God it didn't burn out, smh...

I currently have my Play overclocked to 1.6 using the interactive governor. Battery life is great and it runs steady at 60fps in FPSE. Also Mupen64 runs much better. I haven't had any issues with it so far!

What scheduler are you using??
Mine is running fine on 1.4Ghz with SIO scheduler and InteractiveX governor, the bbatery life seems fine as well...
SmartAss always causing lag on me, dunno why...

i use lupus kernel for gb v2 with i/o setting SIO and governor superbad..
and my phone runs well...no lag..
Hey guys ive already overclocked my phone using the lubus gb kernelv12 and i gota say having the extra internal memory (EXTRA 400MB!!!) and the ability to overclock to 1.6ghz is nice, however there are some things i wana ask. Im running at a min 249 and a max of 1613 mhz using no frills cpu with smartassv2 as my governer and noob as be scheduler, it runs miracles in speed, everything i can run at high resolutions and play and top speeds. However i leave my phone like this all the time ( 249mhz 1613 mhz). The smartassv2 governer is ment to only use high cpus when needed, so that in theory means that i wont always be at 1.6ghz. Ive read on other forums keeping your phone overclocked all the time is bad and dangerous but is it really if the max cpu is only being used when needed? In otherwords should i leave it how it is or is it dangerous? My device is an xperia plat btw. :victory:

AFAIK only the Performance gov keeps the phone at the max allowed clock speed (1.6GHz in your case), so it's just fine as it is. You could, however, use an app (the only one I know that does this is SetCPU, there might be others) to make profiles so it'll only be overclocked when playing games/running benchmarks et cetera. This might save you some battery life.
CPU master by antutu allows you to set profiles but you need to buy the pro to do it
