What is the safest speed that a desire can be overclocked to?
Are there any disadvantages or any long term drawbacks with overclocking?
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
With a pc, the danger of overclocking was a combination of high clock cycle + increase of heat by introducing more power.
We don't have the heat issue as our kernels are undervolted. This means we get same clock (998 mhz) for less power. Ergo, we can get a higher clock at similar voltage as HTC stock.
Now I'm not going to say your CPU won't degrade over time. But the largest contributor (by s long way) has been removed.
The only issue really is what is stable. Some desires overclocked, when put under load will freeze and / or reboot. If this happens, you're overclocked too much.
1190 is the max but many desires aren't stable there

You presume right.
And what is with thread hyper production mate? Not all three queries could fit in one thread?

Well it depends what you mean by that.
If you have a kernel that is 998Mhz at 1200 mV, then you overclock the same kernal to 1113mhz which is at 1275mV, whilst you are running at 1113mhz you will be using more power than you would have been on 998 - yes.
However, I believe (correct me if I am wrong as its been a long time) stock sense kernels are 998mhz at 1300mV so in comparisson to that, overclocking wont use more power.
How much can you overclock HTC Desire HD without damaging the hardware?
And how much do you have your Desire HD overclocked right now?
Sent from my mind.
I'm running the HTC Inspire, which is just the DHD +4g radio, keep that in mind though. It shouldn't affect CPU speeds, but who knows.
I've overclocked to 2.1ghz, but the most you'll ever need is 1.5. Past that you get stability issues and no speed increase, at all. It might even slow you down because of random glitches. Oh, and it gets really, really hot.
I usually stay around 1.2 ghz if I expect heavy usage (gaming, HD video), 700mhz for normal usage (web browsing, ebook reading, music)
I dunno about a safe zone, I've heard 1.5ghz and 1.6ghz, but nothing to back either up.
Thank you for your answer
And anyone else?
Sent from my mind.
Constantly on 1.25, I get glitches if I go higher, have to increase voltage in that case, works great for me this way though...
Depends on the rom. I'm using cm7.2 stable at 1.5 ghz and it's fast with no freezes or crashes

It also depends on the hardware. Not all devices can OC to the same amount even if on the same set up

1.3 on interactive governor is my usual. Works flawlessly
As Zelendel points out there is no "safe" overclock, anything over 1ghz is outside the manufacturers stated performance and therefore at your own risk.
Yes I know there is a risk, but I know there is a point where the device starts to lag or glitch. Like more than 1.5 GHz

You'd have to test your own hardware, I know of people who can run 2ghz all day and others who struggle with anything over 1.2ghz. Even if you'll run stable at xghz it doesn't guarantee that it's not over stressing your device.

Is there anyway to see if your current overclock is stressing your device?
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
I can't imagine if you don't touch voltages and only overclock the CPU much can go wrong. In worst case scenario your phone will force reboot if it's OC'ed too high.
I been running my phone on +- 1.5GHz for months now and never had a problem (and definitely higher scores in benchmarks), higher seems useless because in benchmarks you see no more improval.
Anything til around 1.5/1.6GHz should be fine.
I'm currently on rcmixed rom as you can see in my signature, and I'm using daemon controller with andrev_oc using daemon controller standard voltages for overclocking.
what voltage do you use at 1.5 GHz?

It really depends
Hi. It really depends how much your device can be overclocked without losing stability. But I don't think overclocking is really necessary on DHD. With the right ROM, it runs pretty smooth on 1 GHz.
I've installed ARHD 6.3.3. with a couple of its scripts, and it runs extremely smooth on my device and there is no lag whatsoever.
Overclocking really can lower the life of your device.

can you uninstall setcpu after your dont over clocking?
I can go up to 1.3Ghz, anything higher just freezes the device after some time and I have to pull battery out.

Don't try to Overclock more then 1.5Ghz.
Hehe I did overclock to 1.8 GHz once and my mobile froze. But I pulled the battery and now I'm running stock speed.

The one v has a 1 ghz single core processor so my question is is it possible that the processor from our one V behave like a dual core processor ? Ist it possible
Sry for my bad english xd
Sent from my HTC One V using xda premium
I'll assume when you mean behave like a dual core you mean the processing power of a dual core.
Most likely not however users are reporting (assuming you flashed a kernel that allows overclocking) that you can do 1.5Ghz stable (which I am currently doing), however Titanium allows up to 2.0Ghz.
Not dual core, but it's as good as can be.

Then just try higher frequency above 1.5 and below 2.0
So you can find your best frequency clock..:good:
Because it's depends on what kind of activities that peoples doing in their phone.
I'm running at 1.7ghz on my primoc with no issues so far
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
My phone withstands the 2ghz constantly, but I don't think it's necessary. Every phone has different CPU, and so withstands different freq.
Sent from my ONE V with CM10
My phone runs fine till 1.7 ghz.
It depends from phone to phone. However even after overclock you will not find a lot of difference in performance.
I've tried it but it frezzes only up to 1,5 ghz is able to work for my phone
Sent from my HTC One V using xda premium
Then use 1.5 ghz.
imo anything above 806 mhz feels the same if not playing games. When you play games then 1.4ghz is good enough.
Lil bit an off topic question here. What is the best governor for playing games. I'm currently OC'd at 1.2GHz?

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...

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.

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.

i never overcloked my Phone for me he is fast i think there is also a risk when you overclock
1.5 is pretty stable, any higher than that is a gamble. I got pretty good scores in antutu at 1.5, but not high enough to warrant constant over clock. Heck I usually run with 768 MHz on the high side for tiny bit better battery life and don't notice any slowdowns.

just wanted to ask if it has any such option of setting the processor setting
I haven't found any such settings during my usage.
So if it doesn't have such settings then what is the default setting set to?
I overclocked to 1,5 Ghz and use it daily with SmartassV2 governor. Battery lasts enough to load it back up overnight.

Don't exceed 1.4.
Overclocking a 1ghz kernel to 1.9 is dangerous.

even at 2ghz,there is no damage done to ur phone.generally people feel that it will damage and fry their phone,but thats not true.it only may reboot and freeze just for some time.there is no serious damage as many feel.
Running at 1.2GHz max right now. I'm too paranoid to go any higher than that. It got rid of the minor lag issues I was having (occasionally seeing "loading" when going back to the Sense home screen from an app)
