Wildfire Overclock - Safe? - Wildfire General

Hi, my fellow droids!
I recently rooted my Wildfire (unrevoked) and put WildPuzzleROM 8.0.10 on it. It's currently having it's first boot after flashing, so it's taking its time.
In the original thread I saw some setting for overclocking as downloads. The highest one is for 768mhz.
Is it safe to take that setting or the others above the original clock and have it run all the time? Or will the phone get too hot and damaged?
Yours truly
an ex-pola-user

It's safe!

It's safe but I recommend to stay under 700 (at least at first) for stability

Does behavior of device is like HTC Legend if you know what I mean? Does it play 3d games smoot like Legend?

Hi,
I really want to overclock my wildfire but is it really safe? im scared of getting my phone's battery explode... I really want to get this phone fast so i can play Angry Birds a little smoothly

No, the wildfire has no dedicated graphics chip like the legend has so it will never be as good in games. The wildfire is not meant for gaming...

It's the CPU not the battery that you're overclocking.
But do take your time and browse(search) around the forum looking for reports of exploding phones...

Hi,
I installed Wildpuzzle a few days ago and i want to overclock, but i don't figure out how.
Can someone explain me step by step? I really don't figure out how...sorry for my english
Thank you!

Same way as Wild Puzzle. When booted into recovery, and choosing a zip from sd to install, choose (055 i think) the oc kernel v7, it will flash, the reboot, viola, OC!! A program along the likes of SetCPU will help control frequencies.
I agree with a previous poster (Jacob i think) keep it under 700 and you will be fine.

New owner of a Wildfire with a few questions.

Hey all, I bought a Wildfire for my girlfriend this morning, I should be receiving it in the next couple of days. I had dropped a post in the WildPuzzleROM thread as I am liking the look of it, however I got no reply. So it seems I'll have to clutter the place up with another thread. Here is my original post:
Kalavere said:
Hey folks, I am considering getting a Wildfire for the girlfriend, she's sick of her pathetic Samsung something or other. This ROM is just what I am looking for, close to stock Sense with a decent kernel. However I was a little concerned about the CPU and it's lack of power, so with that in mind I have a couple of questions regarding it.
Is the CPU underclocked when used with the stock kernel, and how does it fair with the 768mhz overclock? How does it affect batterylife as well? I get a good day out of my OC'd Desire, I don't want to leave her short of juice.
I really like the look of the phone, I'm sure she'd love it, but I don't want her with an underpowered device (Not that she'd care, but it's just another device for me to tinker with. ) so I figured I'd as you fine lot first and see if it was a little firecracker when rooted with Froyo.

So as you can see I am curious about the battery life when using a 50% overclock, and wether or not the CPU is underclocked by default with the stock kernel. I don't want to burn out the her CPU just so she can get a few more smooth frame rates.
Any light you guys can shed on my questions would be greatly appreciated.
The overclock is on demand , i get about 12 - 18 hours with it set at 254 mhz - 768 mhz
Hope this helps

The CPU on the stock rom is ok. If u want something faster, look at the htc legend (wildfire has no gpu either)

New Aria user here...

Hello there XDA I just switched to the Aria from the Captivate. I am new to Android modding, so please bear with me.
I like the phone, It doesnt bother me losing screen space. However it is a bit slow with the 600 MHZ processor.
So if there are some people kind enough to guide me to/through the following it would be appreciated.
1. I would like to overclock it a bit, maybe to 800.
2. General performance tweaks
3. Get rid of Att bloatware
4. Root ( z4root is not in the market anymore and ATT disables side loading.)

Hey Joshua, being new to the Aria as well (less than a month), I haven't looked into overclocking it... but I am running CM 6.1 RC 2, what do I need to do to start overclocking?
Install SetCPU to overclock. I wouldn't go over 825mhz as it starts getting unstable.
As for rooting, search for posts by user asiancuta. He did a really good write up that included a key point I didn't see anywhere else. It's titled NOOBZ: easy guide to rooting your aria.... Read all instructions, and make sure you understand it first.
To install cyanogenmod 6.1 rc2 do a search for That aria - she's so racy!

In the other overclocking thread (or overcloking as the OP spelled it ) several people posted that they were running at 864... what type of instability is likely? Also, doesn't overclocking HAVE to have some sort of adverse effect? Like reduced reliability or an increased likelihood of hardware failure? If there are no adverse effects, why would HTC not set the CPU higher from the factory?
I want to try it, but I feel like I pushed the limits of my comfort zone just by rooting and installing CM...

I always lean on the side of caution when it comes to overclocking a phone. I don't want to fry the processor since I can't replace it as easily as one on a computer.
Processors are never set from the factory to run at their fastest.
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
While it might seem odd since all these phones have the same hardware they don't all respond the same to overclocking. Some people can do 864. I can't even get my phone to do anything over 825 and even 825 gives me issues. I like to keep mine between 768-787. Over doing it can cause damage and shorten the life of the processor but keeping it around 800 is probably safe as long as you moniter temps. Heat is the real enemy here. Manufacturers are trying to balance cost, reliability, battery life. Our little phone use a smaller battery and so a lower clock speed keeps the phone running longer. And the aria is a mid range phone, they don't want it to be faster than the more expensive phones. Also Higher clock speeds will drain your battery faster. At 768 the phone is noticeably snappier and the battery drain over stock isn't even noticeable.
Huh. That's good to know, Callmearia. However I don't even know where to start on any of this. I've never 'flashed' a phone or anything like that before.

This is a really good guide explaining how to root your phone and install a custom recovery, Clockwork, with which you can flash ROMs, make backups, and a bunch of other stuff:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788737
You will still not be able to sideload apps just by rooting though. You will need to flash a ROM in order to do that. Check out the Android Development section, it is all there.

I think most people can hit 864 now using CM6.1 RC2. I think some tweaks were made to allow it. Before I was only hitting 825mhz or 844mhz when I ran in to stability problems... but now I have none. Or, it could be due to the fact it's colder here now.
Alright, so after some adb troubles with Ubuntu 10.10, I am now rooted, woo!
So now, where to go from here?
This worked flawlessly and easy. Less than 5 minutes

Take in mind that CM has more customizable features, INCLUDING OVERCLOCKING. Liberated doesn't.
Place the .zip on your SD card. Enter clockworkmod recovery by holding down the volume down button after restarting phone. Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache. Go to install zip from Sdcard. Pick the file. It should install. wait, and reboot and continue.
Customize it to your liking. Download apps/widgets
Turn off unnecessary background items. (Auto Sync)
Decrease Brightness
Only use GSM networks

That is the SetCPU for XDA members.
To install, go through ADB in the command line, or download FASTAPP Install from the Market and place the .apk on your sd card and install it from there.

That's probably true. I haven't tried going over 825 since way back with dumfuqs kernel.
Alrighty... did all that, now running cyanogenmod on my Aria! \o/
No more ATT bloatware.
I made sure to do a nandroid backup just in case.
Also overclocked to 768MHz. Phone seems a bit quicker.

Try leaving the OC alone after the reflash.. It's defaulted to 864mhz and it works flawlessly for me.

Simple answer Yes. This is my best phone yet.
just made the same switch, getting mine later today or tomorrow.. hope its not "android" lagging as engadget writes
anyone who says that this phone lags is a jack*ss. If you run a quadrant benchmark on the stock phone you get marks of around 2000 which beats a nexus one by around 600. I use the android revolution rom and get a score of around 2500. On linpack i get 75 megaflops. The "lagging" problem is solved by switching the usb debugging option on. This phone rocks!! With an adreno 205 graphics unit, 1 ghz processor(can be overclocked upto 1.53 ghz --- buzzoc) and 768 mb of ram..its the fastest phone on the market today
Yes, the hardware is top of the line on the DHD, but still im afraid of the OS, engadget (known Apple fans) wrote about the Naxus S -"touch response and general framerate on everything seems to be cranked closer to the vicinity of the iPhone 4....-with little of that Android-lag we've seen on earlier devices".
But after seeing some youtube clips on the DHD and not noticing any lagg what so ever, i ordered mine and hope that engadget just doesnt like Android in their reviews

75 MFLOPS? What have you done with your phone??? I have Android Revolution 1.8 with the 1.1.1 Buzz Kernel 1,51Ghz running on Performance Mode (SetCPU) and I get around 53 MFLOPS ... ??

there is a bug called the init bug causing the lag, all you need to do is enable usb debugging mode from the development menu and it will go away for good, also animated live wallpaper are known to slow things down a notch, so leave that off
all android froyo phones after few days of usage might drop speed so when this happens all you need is to make a restart and it will be very fast again, the reboot takes a moment, also you should know this speed drop is not reflected inside the apps, only the main interface and it only happens when you've been using the phone heavily for a couple of days without a restart
gingerbread is said to have an app garbish cleaning mechanism that should hopefully fix this issue, HTC updated/updating its desire, legend and wildfire to froyo, so you should expect their flagship DHD to get the gingerbread update first
otherwise phone is blazing fast, fastest android phone on the block, equal or faster than the nexus S (the 2nd gen snapdragon is very optimized plus higher IO and more RAM, highly overclockable)
the GPU is also fast in theory the nexus S should be faster but all test are showing better results from the DHD's adreno 205 GPU, it runs quake 2 at 45-60fps, neocore at 58FPS, nenamark at 42FPS

Try it without rooting first to see if you really need the DHD rooted. I have rooted mine but to be honest I still haven't done anything that needs root access. The OS gives you the opportunity to install non-market apps, so unless you want a custom ROM or overclocking, it makes little sense to root it. And if you decide to do it anyway, there are some good step-by-step guides in the development section on how to do it safely.
Anyway - enjoy your new phone! I know I do

It's the design. The point in this is to keep it from scratching the screen while put upside-down. And if you install a screen protector, it lies completely inside that space, so it's leveled with the heightened "lip".

What is the Max Overclock?

Hey guys whats the max overclock that the Aria can be set to? I had CM6 on mine and had the overclock widget from the market and the max that the sliders went to was 600... But I have Liberty FR008 on it now and i still have the overclock widget but the max that the sliders goes to now is 864... I tried overclocking to 864 but it froze and something went wrong so i had to flash a backup i made. My overclock options right now are 245, 400, 480, 600, 768, 787, 806, 825, 844, & 864... Has anyone tried to over clock the Aria past 600? and did you have any problems with it? Thanks for any help.

I dont think the cm6 kernal allows for over clocking. I have the latest liberated rom and overclocked to 806 which is the recomended max setting by the dev.

The CM 6.1 kernel most certainly does support over-clocking. The CM 6.1 kernel was used as the basis for the Liberated FR008 kernel.
Maybe I was thinking about 6.0. Whatever one I had, I could only over clock to 600.
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
6.0 didn't allow overclocking, 6.1.1 does though. I overclock my Aria to 806mHz and underclock it to the lowest setting when the phone's screen is off so I don't tire out the processor. 806mHz is really good, it puts the phone at the level of the G2 or the Shift 4G...and because I usually run Edge w/3G when downloading, WiFi if available, my battery is really good. Probably about 14 hours of normal (good) usage.
I wouldn't overclock it higher, you risk burning the processor out.
I'm OCd to 825 on-demand and the phone runs very nicely. 245 when screen off
825 is not recommended I don't think. 806 seems to be the sweet spot.

Suit yourself. Just saying 806 is the sweet spot for most people around here. I've gotten force closes and reboots at 825. We don't need your attitude
Then it seems like your particular phone can't handle 825. I suggest people try it on both. every phone is different. Just don't be stupid about it. When using the phone as a gps, under clock it. under clock when screen off. and over clock on demand and I'm fine on 825. never seen any issue.
"Suit yourself." I think that was the point of his post. His phone and usage of it OCd at 825 is good for him. He was just stating an answer to the OP. No reason to go around telling him he's wrong..
Anyways, not trying to start a OC war... because that would be ridiculous (-ly funny I might add).
As for myself, when I did OC my processor, 825 didn't effect my phone's performance, but it did make it extremely hot after a bit of use. So it's up to your phone and how you want to handle your phone. I don't really need the OC anymore though; I just stick with 600 (;

Downsides are less battery life (may be a lot or not) and not going as fast as it would be if you were OCd. It may also heat up more.

Overclocking is not necessary at all. We just recently became able to overclock. If you are satisfied with the speed/fluidity of your phone, then there is no need to overclock. The downsides would be less battery life (cpu running faster), and if you push your phone too hard (overclock stupidly), you run the risk of burning out your cpu. your phone should not be getting hot.

Some questions about ktmanta and other stuffszz

Zup everybody.
Im a new android user and im loving it. With Nexus 10 to be my first android device im very happy with it after i installed ktmanta Kernel.
although i had very litte knowlidge about what roms and kernel is/was i went for it anyways. It improved my experience alot, and everything is running real nice. Also gta vice city doesent lag at all. it lagged like hell before the kernal install.
Now i have few questions and i hope someone out there could help me with. ive seen a few threads on this forum and everyone seems to be nice unlike other forums (no names mentioned)
When i flashed (i think its called that way) the ktmanta kernel i knew that everything would dissapear, but im wondering now if there is a way to backup exact everything before loading a new rom or kernel?
also. when i play gta vice city i use min/max 1500/1500 on the cpu and it works really nice. the only problem is that i have to manually change it and after i have played the game i have to go back and change it to 200/1700 again.
can i somehow make an ikon that i push and the cpu go to 1500/1500 and if i push another icon it will go on the other setting? something like that?
Ive seen folks wright on forums that there is an app that can make your battery life better but never mention such app.
i have batterycalibr, is that the only one?
And the last question is, is there something you could recommend to a new android user (apps,widgets, specific roms, etc) ?
Im loving the android experience and im considering to sell my iphone 5 and buy a droid phone.
(please i apologize if my grammar or spelling isn't at the top)

1. Try using titanium backup to backup your app data and you can restore it once you flash a new ROM/kernel. Remember, only backup app data, NOT system data or you may result in bootloops.
2. Not 100% sure if you could use the KTweaker app or SetCPU to set profiles when you're gaming but you might want to look into that. That being said, you shouldn't have to set your min at 1500 to have fluid gameplay, or at least I don't think so and it will drain your battery much faster. IMO, check out the franco kernel if you want to have the smoothest gameplay with no tweaking necessary and no drops in framerate.
3. I really don't believe in all of that battery calibrator, juice defender, or any other app that claims to significantly increase battery life. However, if you are going to use the KTManta kernel, you can undervolt your device and get some pretty awesome battery life.
4. What kind of apps, widgets, etc. are you looking for? Find out what your style is and customize accordingly. That's the awesome thing about Android!
Hope this helped... :good:

1. Try using titanium backup to backup your app data and you can restore it once you flash a new ROM/kernel. Remember, only backup app data, NOT system data or you may result in bootloops.
2. Not 100% sure if you could use the KTweaker app or SetCPU to set profiles when you're gaming but you might want to look into that.

You have to flash the kernel with the app. It should be a very fast and easy process.

Thanks alot mate. I payed for the Franco kernel and then downloaded a file and had to restart my tablet. I guess i did the process right.
Now gta runs really nice without me putting min/max at the same mhz
Can i delete the ktweakert now ?
