Overclocking - Hard/Easy? - Wildfire General

I recently bought Wildfire, and I realy enjoy it. The biggest upset of this phone for me is that Skype isn't working properly. The sound quality is horrible, scratchy and I can barely understand what others are saying to me.
So last week I wrote an email to skype developers and they told me that the main couse of my issue is slow processor.
I started looking how can I improve my phone speed and found this awesome forum.
I'm pretty experianced if it comes to overclocking PCs which can confirm my PC - watercooled Q6600 4.1Ghz, but if it comes to the smartphones my experiance is less then none. On the PC everything is simple - you run bios and make some magic. Ofc. you can flash ur bios ect. but everything comes just so naturally for a user.
Here everything seems soo complicated. I've read tones of postes and I still 've no idea how 2 safely overclock my processor. I know I need some new kernel and newer ver. of Android. On the other hand, newer ver. of Android is bugged and GPS is not working as it should 've. (I didn't tested this, just heared about it).
Okay question time
1)Is there anyway to overclock my Wildfire without changing Android ver.? I don't need any more functions, 2.1 is enought for me.
2)Did you test skype on your OC'ed wildfire? If you did, how did it work?
3)Don't you've any simple guide how to make a safe overclocking? During the search time I found this - I can't paste link but the tutorial was very complex.
Sry for my mistakes, I know my English isn't in a perfect shape.
Cheers!

Its easy, Im a relative noob and I managed it no problems at all. You dont even need to be running a custom rom to do it.
Youll need to first root your phone by following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788776
Then download Jacobs kernel from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=798471 Rename it "update" and put it in the root of your sd card. Reboot your phone into recovery by holding volume down and power and choosing recovery. Do a nandroid backup incase things go pear shaped. Select "apply sdcard:update" from the recovery menu and it should flash the kernel. Reboot your phone and install setCPU. Enjoy.

Do you have to pay for setCPU ?

You can either buy it on the market, or download it from this thread (don't worry, it's not warez, the thread is maintained by the dev).

hey there. i've follow ur way. but then nothing happened? the setCPU comes after flashed the kernal or we have to find it? nothing happened but an app called "Superuser permission" came out. I've tried to open it but nothing happened, just a black screen.
i tried to search for setCPU and then i got a CPU tuner. Everytime i try to pull the max frequency bar and it will force closed =(. why??

1. root your phone
2. download hcdr jacob's kernel, put it on your sd card and flash it, you dont need to rename it to 'update.zip', boot into recovery, just select install zip from sd card and choose the kernel and flash it.
3. download setcpu from xda, or find it on the market
4. run it, allow su permissions, and then change your settings bla bla.

As U are getting the superuser app u have successfully rooted your phone.
Now download the latest Kernal nd update from it by booting into recovery mode.(HBOOT then Recover). In recovery menu select your file nd hit update.A couple of min. later ur done.Check in about hone to see weather it was a success.
Download setcpu app and select max min frequency nd profiles if u want.Any problem these threads have TONS of info.GL

thank you for your clear guide.
since u say i got the superuser app means i have successfully rooted my phone, then i got the setCPU ( CPU Tuner ) from the market, but i just cant understand why it will forced close everytime i try to drag the max and min frequency bar =(. i did not change any values also..

Then reinstall setcpu.

Or maybe you are using the wrong app, i am pretty sure it's setCPU, not CPU tuner.
Try getting it from the thread ?

i'm try to download that one, hope that will help. thanks assassinator =)

Wow thank you guys for all this help. Michealtbh you gave me answear I was hoping for. Today I'm gonna try all of this, I just hoping my HTC Sync won't ruin my rooting. Thanks again!

i get it solved also =D. now my cpu f is 710mhz wow. but i cant see any difference right now, any way can test this limit? haa.
thanks all =)

Sucess! New kernel installed, Overclocking done! Aweeesome! TY!
EDITED: Okay guys, Skype isn't work properly so I'm pretty sure it's some kind of skype software bug. One last question, is there a way to check temperature of the processor?

Easiest way to test the new speed is to play games.

HELP!!!!

i've flashed CM7, and i reboot it, .. after 15min, the screen is the same, what should i do now?is it normal? i'm getting panic
What screen, if it's HBOOT screen, maybe something wrong in the boot process.
If it's CM7 splash, it was being installed.
use adb and type in "adb shell" and then type "logcat -C", if the log is running, the phone is booting

did you try a full wipe (wipe data/factory reset) before reflash ?
as I say, try to go into shell and use logcat, it'll provide you the log process and maybe you will know if there's something wrong

4.2 kernel is fine, but you can flash 4.1 if you want:

flash CM7 first, and then flash 4.1 kernel.
Just wait, the first boot when you flash ROM can very long (around 20min, usablly 5,10min for me)

okay, first try to install setCPU, free for xda member, search in the forum
set the min around 160 or >200Mhz and max ~600 or anything you want.
set 3 profile
Screen off: 160-~300
Baterry<20%: 160-~400 or 500
Temp >45: 160-~400
it'll help because you optimize the CPU use.
turn-off some animation, don't use live wallpaper (CM7 use it by default, so turn it off)

[q] i give up!!

Ok so far i have updated my baseband to xxx15 and i have rooted my phone installed root explorer busybox etc, i have tried installing XRecovery 1000s of times and have done everything possible i just really want 2.2 froyo on my X8 and i've tried so many times to use XRECOVERY and have gone through every tutorial but it don't seem to work.
Are there any suggestions?
Any other ways to install froyo 2.2 custom roms onto my phone?
Post here the complete procedure you made, step by step.
Maybe anything is going wrong.
Don't give up
/youtube.com/watch?v=lPV6Ue5a0Ww
thats the way I make but with a different ROM it's easy Don't forget to make a backup of your data!
Firstly I updated my baseband to xxx15 and then I rooted using superoneclick and installed busybox from market then I got root explorer and placed the 3 recovery files in system bin and set permissions and mounted in RW and rebooted and clicked back button but nothing comes and have tried Apk xrecovery which still don't work....
Aren't there any other ways apart from using recovery to install custom time because in going crazy here.. I did that YouTube tutorial but it still didn't work.
don't hold the back key, you must tap it fast, when you hold it it will not work, just tap it!
I have beem tapping it but nothing happens
I was having the same exact problem, but then i used the Flash tool, and after click "ask root perms" i clicked "optimize" and after that my phone rebbot onto Xrecovery.
Could you give me a step by step guide through of what you did please?
I´ll try.
If you already done everything else the only thing left is to download the flash tool from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=986697
Then after download, open the flash tool, after open, you will see in the top some buttons, click on the one "ask root perms" first, and after click on the one that says "optimize".
When i did that the phone rebooted to Xrecovery.
If you have any doubts ask and i will try to help.

It's like this, after you install busybox from market, the file you had in SD is changed, (really don't know why), so, the solution is the busybox file you have to move to System/bin, apart from chargemon and xrecovery, YOU must check it's size, busybox must have 700~ kbs, if not, download, or unzip current xrecovery given from many places (must be v0.1) and replace the correct busybox file with the wrong one inside sdcard.
So, YOU MUST BE CERTAIN the busybox file you are moving to system/bin has around 700kb~
I think you're done, reboot and good luck
ok ive tried this process but it still isnt working..........
i am having the exact same problem
I thought i was the only one!, seriously i need helpp aint there any other way to install custom roms,??
i heard somewhere you can use x10flashtool but i wont be the first one to try as i have had soo many problems in the last week its unreal. i cant even get the gingerbread theme on. can anybody post a full tutorial. i have freshly reformated my phone so its on adroid 2.1 and its blank. where do i go from here?
For all that could´t install, after you install busybox on the phone, did you go to the phone, open busybox and install?
yh i installed Busybox after download from market......... and yh i did go to busybox on phone and install but still no luck

Have you ever tried installed Busybox by installing Titanium Backup. tap the lower middle button to let it replaced by a workable one from the Market automatically, right after placing the three files you mentioned above?
This little trick may help...

I have android but it's not rooted?!

Hi,
i bought an HTC HD2 and it has android, but it's not a rooted android...
and it doesn't use magldr but something like
android system recovery <e3>
so i don't know how to flash a rom to change the rom to a rooted one...
i found a link that explains how to install a flash but it's only possible on a rooted phone... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dHVdAtG1Ew&feature=player_embedded#at=151
that's how it's done, with terminal emulator (from market) but i don't have permission, because i'm not rooted (thats what i make of it) and i've downloaded root checker from market, which sais i'm not on a rooted phone...
so anyone have an idea to fix my problem ?
problem 1 how to root my phone
EDIT I ROOTED MY PHONE WITH Z4ROOT and used terminal emulator, inserted the commands, everything goes fine until i put in command reboot recovery, than it reboots, but doesn't do anything when at startup screen
problem 2 how to get another rom on my phone

that's the problem! i can't get into bootloader, when i press volume down button, keep pressing it and start up the phone, it brings me to factory settings and allows me to test all the functions of my phone...
if i press volume up button, keep pressing it and start the phone, it brings me to android system recovery <e3>
Did u check if it's a chineese mobile?
tried z4root ?
Is this a real HD2?
At the OP, if you have a real HD2 and not a clone HD2/fake HD2. And if your HD2 is not using MAGLDR for it's custom bootloader for Andriod, then it has to be using cLK. To flash new ROMs with cLK you have to use Clockwork Mod Recovery to flash a new ROM. Just go check out my guide linked my sig. I give a total break down of cLK and Clockwork Mod Recovery. Just look through the sections on both and it will tell you how to pull up clockwork Mod Recovery at boot up and how to use Clockwork Mod Recovery to flash a new ROM. If you have any trouble post back here or P.M. me.
Now what is wierd to me is the fact you said your ROM was not rooted, all Android ROMs for the HD2 are rooted I do believe. the onlything I know of that causes a rooted ROM to seem like it is not is if your superuser needs to be updated.

Having major Issue (I hope im just a newb)

Here is whats happening to me..I rooted my Galaxy tab 10.1 soon as i got it…no problem…I then tried to set it up to recognize ad-hoc..using the tutorial from another site…when i rebooted ..the Samsung log appeared followed by multi colored horizontal lines all accross the screen..
I restored it back to factory settings and was good to go exept now I have a yellow exclamation point at boot up. So Then I rerooted no problem….I was able to set up for ad-hoc using a tutorial from this site…then i tried to overclock and install Starburst and back to Horizontal lines when I rebooted..
Luckily this time I backed up the rom..so I reverted to that and was ok…This is my 1st andriod , please help ..I want to over clock and put in a new rom but im scared.
I really hope this is something simple that Im doin wrong and can resolve.
sounds like the wrong kernel was loaded up bro. Do this install task650s rom, and install pershoots OC kernel. Do you have a wifi tab? if so, then you need the TW UX version from pershoot. After you install pershoots kernel, then DL setcpu from XDA ( its free here ) and then auto detect , run the slider to 14 and tick the box for set on boot. Reboot and you're golden.
Ok sounds Awesome...yes its the wifi only 10.1...im totally new to android..do i do it in that exact order rom then kernal and so on?
Ok download these
1. Tasks rom : http://www.multiupload.com/F6K6JNJ46V
2. Pershoots kernel ( correct on already ) : http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/ker...-cm_2636.4_ux-oc-xtra-vfpv3-d16_fp-091011.zip
3. Setcpu and set it up as I said above : http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=648354&d=1310073004
You have to be rooted, and Im sure you still are. Its late here and Im super tired, so forgive me haha
Your THE MAN thank you bro..get some sleep..I swear this is last question..I dont reboot untill the end? or after each thing i install? I swear thats it lol.
ITs cool bro, Im not the typical forum browser. I'll try and help even the simplest question that has been asked 1000 times. Anyway, What I would do is get into recovery ( btw a good app for this is called Quickboot, its free and puts the tab right into recovery with one click )
What I was saying haha, is get into recovery. Do a system wipe/factory reset. Once that is done flash Tasks, then pershoots kernel. Once that is done back out and reboot. Its going to take around 10 mins or so. But it may only take a few. Depends, but let it sit until its done. Once its done. Let the kernel set in and works its way thru the code. Then reboots for ****s. Once its rebooted load the setcpu program. When that comes up accept the superuser popup, adjust the slider bar to 1400mhz and then slick the box that says set on boot. Then restart again, and well thats it bro.
WOW!!! You sir are a Scholar.....All worked perfect....Happy guy here, thanks again..where do I send the xmas card too lol?
God you got it figured out bro.

[GUIDE] - Root with RazorClaw/Recovery installer (All TF)

I'm just writing this quick (somewhat) noob-proof guide, because some people are asking questions still.
Requirements: 8.6.5.19 WW Firmware version (or one with the App Backup application)
Get Root:
1. Download and install RazorClaw app on your device (http://androidroot.mobi/2011/11/14/introducing-razorclaw-v1/)
2. After install run the app, read the info and press "Root me nao!"
3. If successful, SuperUser app should appear in the app list (This needs to be updated via Market link)
Note:
by wolf849
--install option is not working for some reason on TF101G and su needs to be installed manually after temp root .
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Install Custom Recovery (CWM):
0. This comes after rooting, not before!!!
1. Download Recovery Installer app on your device (Link by gnufabio)
2. Install app, run, click to install recovery
3. Device reboots, and if successful, it installs recovery and boots back into OS.
Install Custom Rom:
0.Download the ROM and check MD5sum (always do that) - free programs canb be found everywhere to check. When done, put it on your MicroSD card, not the internal memory (therefore MicroSD card needed )
1. Reboot to CWM you just installed (I used Transformer reboot to recovery app)
2. BACKUP!!! current ROM (click on backup/restore option in CWM) - navigate with volume buttons, power button.
3. When backup finished, choose Install .zip from SD Card, choose the file you have downloaded - wait for the process, then reboot.
4. Done
- More information regarding flashing ROMs, addons can be fount in the Development forum.
If you want to (Do it! ) - Thank (and buy a beer) to all the developers, who made this possible!!!
Followed these steps and worked flawlessly! Running overclocked 1.5ghz on Revolver ROM / Clemsen 21 kernel with my newly rooted B7O SBK2. Smokin fast, no force closes, and smooth as silk. RayMan and his team at Android Root Mobi are great! I was shocked to see the breakthrough in rooting SBK2 devices yesterday. Jumped on it and it's the easiest root and custom ROM install I have ever done (previous experience with Nook Color, Viewsonic Gtab, Acer A500). Installed automatic Airplane mode app and getting amazing battery results. Keyboard doc is performing great too!

Excelant informatie, didn't know it was SO easy to root (still used to the HTC Hero way) you confinsed me to get root and install revolver rom (mostly for the battery life!) Thanks again
Please tell me I can do this on my EEE Pad Slider.....
Thanks in advance -

I opened the URL referenced in the OP and saw that the Slider will be tested soon. Please disregard my post.

Oh wow thanks! I originally just thought the B70+ can just only be rooted and not be able to install a custom recovery and custom rom too.
This is awesome. It makes my purchase of a TF that much sweeter.

Don't see why you would use that app sinse it's fixed in the new firmware update?
Excellent root guide
Just "rooted" my TF; so smooth I attempted it twice! Couldn't believe it was so painless. Congrats and kudos to all involved. Just one simple question, most likely been asked before so I apoligise in advance; when firmare is updated, does device have to be re-rooted or will it carry over?
I rooted and installed Revolver rom on my B70 a few days ago using this method and did a and factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache before updating the zip. Everything works fine though, but is this the correct procedure? For future falshes: do I need to wipe again in CWM after the zip update? Thanks.
If you're just updating the same ROM no need to wipe. It's recommended of you're switching to a different ROM that you do a full wipe
ZOMG... you guys are freaking AMAZINg. i was soooo disappointed when i found out the B70+ weren't rootable. but you guys saved me from selling this for soemthing else!!! Look for some beer moneys coming your way!

Not necessarily. I tested both and using this app gave me another 10% efficiency in battery. This app gives me a fail safe sleep solution no matter what. Been using TF101 in dock since 7am this morning for email, stock quotes, etc. Using about 15 minutes per hour. After bout 6 hours dock is at 94% and tablet at 99%. Maybe the firmware will do that, but this app is gold for me. I have a B7O SBK2 which I rooted on Monday with Razor. Using Revolver and Revolver Parts. Overclocked with Prime kernel. Running 1.5gz with profiles using SetCPU. Milking everything out of this thing possible and it's flawless! I probably will not put on the charger until Friday. Watched an hour of Netflix last night with very little battery drain. With a "performance" profile in SetCPU at 1.5gz, I get a 3350 Quadrant test score. My normal profile is "interactive". Gotta go!! Have a good day.
I get a parsing error everytime I attempt to run the APK. Any ideas? I really want my device rooted.
thanks so much....
immediately root n install custom rom....

I was having the same problem. Install All the firmware updates first. Then run the App.

Just downloaded it and ran it, succes! Rooted thanks!
ps xredbeardx and nikkobenson, try redownloading it using an other browser on your PC and transfur it to your SD card instead of the SSD.
this is the easiest rooting procedure I've ever used for ANY device. BUT I desperately need to UNROOT my device. I rooted three nights ago, my Transformer 's screen is messing up and I really need to return it to the seller which I purchased it from, but I don't want to do so with a rooted device. PLEEEEASEEE tell me you guys can help me unroot? I have B70 device. Thanks so much for any help you can provide. You will seriously make my year and save me $330

I'm interested to know this too. I've just bought a Transformer so I guess it'll be B70 or higher, so if something does go wrong, like the device bricks or we need to claim on warranty, how can we go about fixing it? Apparently NVflash doesn't work, is there an alternative? :/
