[Q] Xperia PLAY processor - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I saw on gsm arena that Xperia Arc S a model few months newer that PLAY has the same chipset Qualcomm MSM8255T Snapdragon (i guess that the "T" comes from Turbo) and our Xperia PLAY has Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon.
The Qualcomm MSM8255T Snapdragon is clocked by Sony at 1.4 Ghz, but our PLAY has only 1 Ghz...
Here is the question: does this mean that both phones have the same processor, but Sony overclocked Xperia Arc S at 1.4 ghz...I have a custom ROM, and set cpu) can i safely overclock my phone to 1.4Ghz for a long time (a day or a week or...) without any risk? For now i just overclock it to play MC4 or any other game but i switch to 1 Ghz after a few hours.
Thanks!

The arc and play have different processors. Yes you can overclock to 1.4 ghz processor but once your xperia play starts to heat up the clock speed becomes unstable. In other words if you overclock your xperia play 1.4 ghz it wont be the as the arc.

1.4 Ghz Crash, any happens the same?

Motorola droid 2 overclocks at 1.4Ghz stable at 72-76 Vsel ( i seen ) but our defy's can't do that frequency, inclusive with 80vsel still not stable...
There is any reason? why droid 2 can, but defy doesn't.. in "teori" defy have an omap 3630, the same as droid 2.
Maybe something on the driver? or simply hardware limitation?
thanks
Because that Phone has a CPU that has already a higher default clock.
Even if it is the same CPU, the chip used in the Defy mostly just didnt
meet the required parameters for 1 GHz and was stamped 800 MHz.
So you will in most cases not be able to go that far in OC.

I haven't tried yet 1,4 Ghz.
Now i'm at 1,3 Ghz stable...
Have you tried higher vSel values?

im sorry but Chinese defy runs by default at 1ghz, and with the same Vsel as default 800Mhz....
I don't care about this... but i'm still thinking there is any way to overclock safetly at 1.4Ghz and more like the Droid 2.
Example, HTC HD2, in his time the max overclock at 1.2Ghz ( maximum stable ) and now is stable at 1.5Ghz.... you don't believe? search on hd2 forum...

AFAIK Chinese Defy (ME525) also run at 800Hz by default.
Defy may have same CPU as Droid2, but even same CPU of different production batches often have different overclockability.

Maybe the overclock is not 100% factible.
The pone is precintated to resist wather, and overheats easy.
Well, i'm happy with my 1.3Ghz at 64Vsel.

[Q] Desire HD ROM on Desire tech question??

Hello,
Desire and Desire HD share the same arm CPU of 1Ghz, it is hard to get full board and chip-set specs of both.
My question is why there are lags when using a DHD ROM on the desire?
No, they have slightly different CPUs (chipsets).
Desire:
1 GHz Scorpion processor, Adreno 200 GPU, Qualcomm QSD8250 Snapdragon chipset,576 MB RAM

Desire HD:
1 GHz Scorpion processor, Adreno 205 GPU, Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon, 768 MB RAM

The CPU listed it as the same, but it is a newer architecture + more RAM = more juice.
Also, I'm using InserCoin HD port, and have no lags with that one.
I tried Reflex sense for a while but went back to non HD auraxTsense
I had no lag on reflex though - it was very good
I'm using owhne v4.2.3 , and have no lags with that one.

Arc S firmware on Arc???

why would you want this? they are practically the same.
To convert the arc into an Arc S at 1.4Ghz
And from where do you know that your cpu can run stable at 1,4 ghz?

Why don´t you inform before speaking? The arc can handle even 1.8Ghz, try doomkernel
Ehm, only because you can push the cpu to 1,8Ghz doesn't mean that it cah handle it stable.
So i just can give the question back: Why don't you get information about how processors work and what overclocking does do and how it works.
I repeat: Only because you can push the processor to a specific frequency doesn't mean that it can handle that frequency stable....

Ah, the kernel was tested? How can a kernel been tested if the cpu gets frequency xy?
The one has nothing to do with the other.
I'll just give up...
Seems it makes no sense. Just go and get the Arc S fw onto your Arc.
I would actually be interested what processor does the Arc S have - is it the same processor bumped to 1.4 GHz, or is it different chipset?
Yes exactly same processor
Ars S: Processor 1.4 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8255
GPU Adreno 205
Arc: Processor 1 GHz Qualcomm MSM8255
GPU Adreno 205
I wonder why they just don't increase CPU frequency of already exisiting Arc via the latest update ?
Ha ... marketting ...

Anyway the actual dump is from a developer phone so maybe have a lot of bugs or maybe is no compatible
if it dont brick arc, I will try
So... Has anyone tried?

I would assume the arc s will recieve the ics update. I know there are many roumours regarding the update for the arc. If the arc s firmware goes into.our arcs it would increase the chances of us also getting the update either by official means or custom roms......maby im talking bollocks and everyone knows something i dont ive been busy with other things to follow the phone scene of late

Tried replacing the build.prop of the Arc S system dump and then performing a update using SEUS or PC Companion, it gives a message that the software is not available yet. Either have to wait for that or for somebody to get the ftf/img. I changed the build number of the build.prop to a lower value to make it check for an update. It does say now in "About Phone" that I have a LT18i
if i flash this FW did i get 1,4 GHz on my Arc too ??

*Sigh* None of you know that the Qualcomm MSM8655T isn't just an extra letter at the end of the code name, it actually brings changes:
Higher clock speed (this is the frequency the processor is fused at when it is manufactured, something that 'overclocking' does not do the same job at)
Lower power consumption (if you compare the Arc and Arc S spec sheets, you'll see the difference in estimated battery life)
Higher data transfer speeds (an improvement brought by the chipset)
There are things that a firmware update will not and can not 'fix'.
The furthest I got so far is pushing the /system of the LT18i to my LT15i. Don't notice any difference compared with the latest LT15i firmware but that is prolly because of mentioned hardware differences and the differences shown in the previews are like somebody suggested maybe left out in the /system dump of the LT18i.
I must say that everything feels alot quicker/smoother since the upgrade of 2.3.3 to 2.3.4

GPU overclocking ?

Hi,
i was wondering since i'm more in the PC area and i know more about overclocking that it can be done not only to gain CPU OC we can get also GPU OC.
Is it possible to get the same thing with the Sony Play ? since it does have a GPU so, can't we overclock that as well ?
regards,
LaBBa.
+1 Sice the Sensation GPU can be overclocked this may be able....
The xperia play does not have a dedicated GPU. Adreno the GPU is built into the CPU chipset thus overclocking the CPU also overclocks the GPU.
We have the adreno 205 GPU, the sensation is using adreno 220.

Will there be overclocking gpu support soon?

I was wondering if it will be possible to overclock the gpu , because my cpu of my htc one v seems to be insanely good , even ran the max 2ghz for few hours , then restarted when i moved the app the storage card, so could be just sd card bug or something , but i switched it back to 1.8ghz(245mhz idle) , anyway my quadrant score is quite low because of the gpu , because i hit 4,1k cpu score at 2ghz , and have seen other phones being able to overclock the gpu.
Hope to see the gpu overclock able soon, will make this phone even better

My can withstand the 2ghz constantly without overheat, but that is the cpu. The gpu is a different story.

This is a known issue with the Titanium kernel (KISS has e.g. the same values here as stock)
you can read about it in the kernel thread for this kernel
But I doubt that those benchmarks values make a noticable difference in daily usage
So if you need OC more then 1.5GHz just stay with Titanium.
If you think that I/O values will make your device slower use KISS kernel

max
PS: Regarding the original question
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=710850
There you can read all about OCing the GPU
Common point at the end. They didnt found a way to do it
thanx for the reply, was just wondering about score , phone it selfs seems very fast and have no problems with it
ok so the gpu scales with cpu overclock then , must say ashalpt 6 plays very nicely

that guy did overclock hes gpu with 220 chip , maybe new ones can be overclocked only.

Sensation has a Snapdragon S3 One V has S2

i am pretty sure i saw an app called "Dual" something on the LG P990 threads and it had the option to overclock the gpu*
*if the kernel supports it
sorry for digging up old thread, but... are there now any chances for OCing GPU?
