Stock vs Overclocked

Is it worth rooting my phone and overclocking it?
Is overclocking it really noticable in performance to say approx 1.5GHz? And is it going to kill battery? Thanks

Yes and Yes to both of your questions. There is a noticeable diffrence in performance when overclocking. But it will obviously use more battery

cant say ive noticed 1.5ghz killing my battery.. might be used a bit faster.. but u can easily offset this by lowering your clockspeed and voltage for your sleep state in addition to minimising the required voltage that 1.5ghz requires, id say my battery life is probably better overall, and i run 1.5ghz 24/7.
of course your mileage may vary depending on usage and various settings.

How hard is it to overclock it? My phone is rooted but I have no experience with overclocking.
I'm guessing it wouldn't be a wise idea?

Yeah this seems a little over my head.. thinking of buying another Xperia Play just to mod the crap out of.
Dont really wanna mess with the overlocking now I think about it incase I fry the chips and kill the phone.

At 1.4 and 1.5ghz its quite safe.
To chill out the battery put some screen off underclocking like at Real low with but not the least
1. 4 ghz scaling interactiveX I get 252/282 MS, thats pretty fast with nitro lag Nullifier too

i currently overclocking my play to 1.6ghz and it runs fine.. games and apps run a lot more quicker

i'm quite interested in overclocking.. been thinking about it for the last months..
but i don't know, 1GHz is quite enough for me.. im not experiencing any slow down..

Well with 1.5Ghz then, you'll be amazed!

Overheat

Sry for a maybe stupid question but my Arc S is always very hot, especially when it's charging. I downloaded the Phone Temperature app and it said that my temp is 54 °C and I'm very worried, I hope that my camera lent won't melt becouse it's starting to be very hot.
Hope someone can help me.

Hi! Same issue here...
Could be a solution to downclock the CPU to 1ghz? Someone tried that way?

Of course it would, but that isn't really a solution, it's a workaround with sacrifice of speed.
I highly doubt anything will melt inside the cell phone. They must've tested it and all, I'm sure they noticed it gets hot. Otherwise there's always warranty and stuff

I changed a few things and it work for now, u dont need to undervolt or anything..I downloaded Ram manager Free on google play and then set it on Balance..it a daily use option (u have other options too) so now the cpu is at 1400mhz only when my phone needs that much, and when I do other stuff is at 1000mhz sometimes even lower. It's not slower or anything, it just saves your cpu for when you need it.
Pls hit thanks if I helped!

It's not a stupid question, however it is misplaced.

54 ° is very a high temperature no? in my arc s the max temp is 42-43 ,when playing ,and its 33 ° while it's charging ,without using it off-course

It is due to heavy OC. If you dont want lower your OC value.. there are few steps to keep your phone
normal while charging!!
Dont play games or use heavy aaps while charging.
Switch off WIFI / 3G during charge.
If you just let your device sleep during charge.. it wont heat up!!

The only problem when it get's really hot is when your charging and playing games at the same time, the touchscreen is really very hot.

I had the same on CM9 nightlies. Stock ICS based ROMs don't heat my Anzu.

does jelly sandwhich rom overheat your arc s???

My arc s only get hot while gaming

I didnt really know how hot is my phone..Just do think of "too hot" after doing a BackUp and then flash a new ROM.

Mine usually gets hotter while using 3g!

Overclocking One V

A few questions about overclocking
First, is this even working? I'm using the latest PA ROM.
What are the best possible settings that don't damage the phone?
Sent from my One V using xda premium

Yes overclocking is definitely working. U can notice a sharp difference between lower and higher values...don't overclock above 1.7 GHz it may damage ur phone...

what kind of kernel do you need to overclock? are most custom roms ready for it already?

All roms can be over clocked...it depends on the kernel

ohhh i see. so are all kernels that are compatible with the phone compatible with all roms?

You guys.... stop scarying the people already. Overclocking your device will not break it in any case, most likely will shorten YOUR BATTERY LIFE! But that's it! You will not fry your phone, motherboard, display or whatever. I can ramp my phone upto 2ghz and it has nothing... But 1024 mhz or 1200 is enough!

I had OCed hellboy to 2 GHz...it felt stable but the phone crashed every time i opened an app...anyways 1.2 is best works so smoothly...best for everyday use...

When I overclock to 1.5ghz I don't notice any difference at all ...why ?also if I sometimes try 2.0ghz the phone becomes laggy like hell

Difference is there. Just to be sure that your phone works at that range (and its not a rom/kernel problem) - install Perfmon from the market and open the CPU section - It will then show you in real time at what range your CPU works. And if 2.0 gh becomes laggy it is because your cpu can go that high. Some cpu's can and others can't. That's just how they work. My old HTC Hero could go upto 691 from 526 default but other HTC Heroes could go upto 740....

Yo Son, Just OC'ed my V to 1.8GHz, it flys. Kill those animation.
When I oc'ed to 2.0GHz stability test Crashed dawg. Stability test it son!
BTW: When I drop to 1.9Ghz throttling issues Nig. So bench your one V too.
now I'm at 1.8GHz it's stable and no heat issues at all.

Benchmarks are useless..

May I ask why? Not about AnTuTu.. but Quadrant Standard is great!! Even helps in choosing a better ROM.. a little..:cyclops:

The only use I have for benchmarking apps is to compare changes in roms and kernels on your own phone. If you use the same app to benchmark, you can see the different performance gains and losses in various rom and kernel combinations. i really don't think they do any good comparing performance between different phones, but for checking on your own mods they do come in handy.

Use benchmark to determine throttling

Here are some tips I know which increases the benchmark rating..
Use PERFORMANCE as the Governer after overclocking.. And disable 'Force use of GPU for 2D Drawing' in developer options.

Overlocking its different from phone to phone ! Some w can take big oc and some just crash
U have to test for yourself since every w has unique hardware

Do u have it overclocked?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

underclock it can save you. for me i underclocked it to 245mhz - 1113mhz with lulzactive

Ya, try underclocking it... Once, i put my phone's Max Freq to 1.5GHz and it heated up real fast till i lower it down to 1.2GHz... U can feel the difference in heat loss If u have lags or anything, SmartAssV2 and sio shld do the trick!
I'm back to OneOfAKind v21

ok. I will try underclocking
thank you very much

This is because you are using it while charging. You battery is charged and discarged at the same time and therefore stressed twice. It´s getting warm when charged and it´s getting warm when discharged, so both at the same time and it´s getting hot and it´s lifetime reduces dramtatically.
Underclocking and undervolting will help a bit, but not a lot, because it´s not the CPU that drains most but your screen while using it. Simply leave it charging and use it after it´s charged.
