[Q] Overlocking Wildfire S?

Hi,
is there any Kernel for overclocking our Wildfire S?
The CPU should work at 800MHz, like in other smartphones.
Thanks in advance.

No overclock kernal yet.

ill do some testing if yogu want me to ?

are there any news of this?
have set my wildfire on s-off today and rooted it. so i'm looking forward to overclock it as soon as possible.
would be rly nice to know how long u will need to finish ur tests!?
cheers

Yeah, it would be great. At least for a 768 Mhz )

this would be very helpful

sept,23???? oh dude i think this post is dead...

got a question.
can I overclock my WS with setCPU, or do I need a kernel?

Need a kernal.

its still a tortoize :'(

hey guys m a noob i have in this roooting process for like just a few months and have changed around dozen roms.i currently on cm7.2 latest verison and my fone crashes around 5-6 times a day.i am using cm7 performance tuning as cpu 729-729(performance) compcache 26% vm heap is 64.in order to speed up the device i have installed sd speed increase on 3072kb but no results.my fone has around 60apps of which 55 are on internal memory while 5 on sd card i used mtd partion and partions were as system 130mb,cache 20mb,and internal 315mb.my fone lags like anything i was using adw launcher the other time but it crashed every 5times
now i am using go launcher and it is atleast not crashing now but it is very using as if i m using 512mhz processor.the games are also very slow ninjump is very annoying on the device.i surfed the internet for qvga temple run but it force closed and so with other games like nfs shift(not responding) and gangstar west cost (unresponsive)
did i rooted it wrong should i root over again?
also i flashed ruu and then also flashed cm7 but still its laging.
using the stock kernel of cm7
please help ASAP

Dissemble your phone ,cut your processor into 4 pieces and you will have a quad core.It will then become super fast like a leopard.

This is nothing to do with rooting. You should know that wildfire doesnt have a gpu in it so the games dont run as they are suppose to be running. So overclocking doesnt do any significant good to its performance.
I see that you are running it at 729/729 which according to me is too much because the device heats up quite a lot with these settings and also leading to craches. Try atleast lowering the lower value. I personally use 691/352 with smarassv2 and it doesnt give me much lags with the scripts I use. Mind you I use adw launcher with all the animations enabled.

i know wildfire doesnt comes with a gpu but ninjump should work flawless with overclocked processore my fone doesnt gets heated even on 729 if i use if for more than 6hours in straight and by temple run and gangsta i meant those games were mend to be compatible for a arm v6 processor still they arnt working even if i try everything with chainfire 3d

Yes they are compatible with armv6 processor thats why you are able to run them. But mind you games need graphic processing. Slow processor without gpu (graphic processing unit) can not do all the processing by itself.
Still there are many scripts available here on xda which can improve the performance of our device. You can try those and see if they help you.

:banghead: and then with some rolleyes.
using my thanks as likes

Just because you can't feel the heat doesn't mean it's not there before the phone gives in, every cpu has a different tolerance level.
Drop your cpu speed and it should stop the rebooting, I've heard of people that can't go above 691 before too.
As for the games its been said before many times, no gpu=no good graphical games, this cpu can't handle it. If you want a good phone that can don't buy bottom of range phones that have been out for years.

I have searched a lot but only wat I could do was to increase performance a little and that too unstable if you can be so kind to give me links of the scripts you are talking about I would be thanful to you.also you said games are compatible for arm v6 but temple run v6 verison doesn't opens in my fone it just force closes everytime I try to open it while I have seen many galaxy y users run temple run.I am not complaining about the performance(no gpu) but atleast they run do you have a solution?

if you dont want to help its ok but dont unnessarily demotivate people who want to make something of their phone or who want to learn something.if wildfire is an outdated fone i am amazed why there was an unofficial cm9 port for it or an muni v4 port.for some people the fones do matter :/

First of all read my post correctly, I gave you advice on how to stop the random reboots? How is that not being helpful?
Secondly it doesn't matter if they are compatible with armv6 they use a more advanced graphics engine which will just not work for us. I'm also guessing that a galaxy y has a gpu?? (correct me if I'm wrong).
As for your your other comment, the sun is shining today and I'm in a good mood so I won't bite!

Some were causing errors which I noticed in the logcat. It also contains a script to disable logcat so I removed it too.. You can say that I customized it to my style.
Ps. Dont ask me to make a zip for you as I dont have a working laptop.

First of all drop ur processor frequency because it is not supercomputer.use scratch post value,they r best for wildfire...
For games its just like running mass effect 3 on Pentium 3 with no nvidia or amd....
Thirdly don't be rude to other members because u r noob and scratch is a senior member and bro scratch helped me alot while I was rooting....
What u had done to your phone,I can only pray for it,even HTC will also not accept it,they will donate to nokia....

[Q] Roms and gaming

Hi all!
I wanna ask you something about gaming with this powerful smartphone: all of us are trying many roms, MIUI roms, CM9 roms, Sense-based Roms, Leedroid, ARHD etc with a lot of kernels, EP kernel, Franco Kernel, Bricked Kernel...
Which couple Rom- Kernel is the best for gaming? In all the Sense- based Rom I've seen that Shadowgun v1.1.2 [ tegra3 effects ] have some lags while firing at the enemies... Or fruit ninja lags when I put a finger for cutting fruits...
Can you answer this? Remember, battery life is important, but this Tegra3 is meant for gaming... Go to see what is coming: Renaissance Blood, an example.
Thanks in advance.

I am using ARHD 6.0.0 and with stock rom all games are running perfectly.

ARHD? What kernel are you using?

Don't think the rom makes a big difference. Saw an article yesterday on the xda portal where a person has a way to optimize the gpu. It was called v6 supercharger.

V6 supercharger doesn't do anything to the graphics processing unit(gpu)... It is a script that changes the oom(out of memory) values and optimizes them for better e.g. Multitasking .. By the way editing oom values is useful only in low ram devices...

Maybe the rom cannot make a lot of difference, but now I'm on Insertcoin and games are not flawless as I was thinking. Before that, I was on Miui release, and seems to be best for gaming. Must try all of that, now try ARHD. Thanks, forumhookerdotcom

I know it doesn't do anything to the gpu, but it allows you to use a higher processing power. It sets the minimum values to 1ghz. Apparently some games which don't optimize tegra 3 is sometimes jumping around with the amount of cpu it uses. For example from 1.2ghz to 600mhz. That is apparently causing the game to lag/stutter. Some games only use 1 - 2 cores.

You're right they do make a difference. I think in General the small/lite roms do work best for games. Will also try ARHD sometime, waiting for latest Leedroid first. Want to upgrade and restore later to Lee's rom.

The phone only uses one or two cores because it only needs one or two cores. What the problem probably is is the switching of CPU frequency slots

Htc One X Performance

Hi, what u guys (and ladies) think about performance of this phone, I'm not happy at all... I buy hi-end phone with quad core, but for example GTA III seems to be lagging, this game was much more smooth on my Sensation with OC to 1,7. NOVA 3, also is laggy. I'm using viper 1.01 rom with faux kernel, with stock kernel was the same. How are u feelings about this?

Nova is not lagging for me at all. Try the latest kernel of faux(004b6), also use hamdir's gaming guide. About those games being smoother on the sensation, that's sort of to be expected. Those games can't do anything with the tegra 3 because it's not optimized. The developers, especially gameloft, does not care for tegra. They depend on raw power, where as tegra depends on optimization. I'm also using faux kernel with viperrom. Try hamdir's gaming guide, and remember the interactive governor is broken on the latest faux kernel so you should use ondemand.
I think it would've also been more appropriate to post this in the before mentioned gaming thread. You're answer would've been very quickly answered.

I was disappointed with the performance with the One X when I first got it as well. It was getting ****e Quadrant scores. Laggy interface and crap game performance.
I slapped on InsertCoin, flashed Franco's latest kernel, ran V6 supercharger and followed hamdir's gaming guide and it fixed everything. I now get about 800 more points in Quadrant, and games run perfectly smooth.

this is the problem with u people u buy a device n have the burning sensation that the alternative does better
let me tell u this every trick in the gaming guide I actually learned from the sgs2 forums
I guess they really needed all those governor tweaks too, let me tell u something else
don't ever expect full performance out of ur mashine when all default android CPU governors come so heavily tweaked to save battery
the on-demand default only calls full speed at 90% load, the interactive default only calls it at 97% load that's really conservative, the situation is the same on every other device
I remember I had the same gov issue with my sensation stock (In ARHD mike had them optimized) also had the issue with my DHD
android = non game friendly governors that needs to be tweaked
and finally the Asus prime comes with a performance profiles built-in and this app all it does is load the very same optimized values in my guide and scripts
u don't need to read anything just use my scripts, also the latest ARHD has the on demand optimized out of box if u can't bother
oh and nova 3 as well as most GL games runs smooth as butter on sgs3 because GL optimizes for Mali devices and neglect Tegra, maybe because of some unannounced contract
so go get it be happy

Overclocking Wildfire

Hi does anybody know of a kernal that will enable me to overclock my wildfire to about 800mhz, my wildfire runs smooth at 768 no problem. But i have seen people with wildfires overclocked more than 800mhz. Depending on what rom it may work on i would be more than happy to move to another one. I was using CM9 unofficial but got bored after a while tbh ever since it came out i had it so.... anyways it would be of great help if you could leave a link for download for the kernal(s)

I don't think they're are any atm, and the amount of people that can oc to 800mhz without a problem I think you can count on one hand.
I was like you able to run at 768 on both my wildfires but when I pushed it to 800mhz it was too much. 788mhz was fine but 800mhz and it just froze then rebooted. Also the battery drain was worse at 788 and they're really is no noticeable difference in speed.

overclocking up to 800mhz could be possible for wildfire but i advice you not to do that it's very dangerouse for your CPU and Battery and GPU

Just a little correction: I might be wrong but our Willy has no GPU at all Everything else would be my suggestion, too, but I think OC in general should put up a warning sign - everytime - at least the lifetime of your CPU will be cut even if you try to do it responsible lol
