[Q] OC help! - XPERIA X8 General

hey guys. i really dont understand how to oc my x8. could someone explain it in simpler terms. hehe sorry im noob i tried installing with xrecovery but setcpu didnt detect any new frquencies. i need help. need to oc @725 to play BIA. its laggy at 600mhz using hackdroid v108. help! or should i switch roms?

You already loaded the module right?
go to terminal emulator and type..
"su" and then press enter..after that... type in
"echo x25 > /proc/x8oc"
this will overclock it to 710Mhz..
thought... I don't recommend 725Mhz... It will be unstable..
but if you have to..
type in "echo x26 > /proc/x8oc" instead...
and yes.. without the "

[Q] x8 does not overclock

Hi everybody...
I know I'm not a dev, but I like to explore my android phone. So you are developing, and right after i'll be trying to do it... on my own
I believe I followed all the steps refered in x8 overclock module thread in devs section, but since I can't ask this there, i'll ask it here.
1st - Download and unzip x8oc.zip (the right version), then copy x8oc.ko to system/lib/modules (I'm sure the file is there, system is mounted rw).
2nd - Edit hw_config.sh on pc with notepad++ (my edited file is attached) and "glue it" back to system/etc after editing.
3rd - Reboot... and then what?! It reboots, but when I go to set cpu, I have same frequencies as before (122-600mhz). So, my x8 is not overclocked right?!
Beside this steps do I need to do something else?! In set cpu, do I select any device configuration or just auto detect frequencies?!
Do I need to set custom frequencies in any other files?!
I've just tried lot's of changes and nothing worked.
Please help me on this...
I'm using floyo 0.15 on my x8, rooted and with xrecovery on it...
Thank you all
the attachment is correct..and don't change the set cpu. i use the same roms like yours
Do you think that having baseband version 006 instead of the 015 could be the cause for this problem? I never updated it...
Because, I've done it again without touching set cpu and still no overclock... If you say it's correct, then I really don't know what else could it be...
Thank anyway for the reply
I think it is very influential on baseband cuz for the rom said that use xx15,...if yours non xx15 so try to change it ...what you've applied on the hw_config is same on mine so it's quitely correct.
Hi mate
So, I'll tell you what i've done.
Went to SE's site and repaired to the original 2.1 so restarted the phone, updated to baseband 015, then root, then xrecovery... and then, installed miniCM. As you know, miniCM has an update.zip to easily overclock it to 710MHz.
I tried it and it worked fine. BUT! I prefer Floyo 0.15 (the best till the moment for me) and so I tried to do something, when I restored back to Floyo.
Adding the code to the original hw_config.sh in floyo's file didn't work again. So I thougt... Let's trie to put MiniCM's hw_config (the file that comes in the update.zip) to floyo's system. And... It's working FINE!!! I'm currently running at 749(x27)Mhz and it doesn't go off... it's stable. Also handles 767(x28)Mhz but it's not so stable. Now I'm really satisfied with my overclocked x8.
But there is one reason that made me think of where was the mistake.
When I opened floyo's original hw_config and added the code, in notepad++ it was apparently correct and the visual configuration of the file was equal to miniCM's hw_config file (already with the code). But, when I opened the both in wordpad, the file I edited had the same format as in notepad++ and the file from MiniCM had all together and a different layout. So I thought that it was possible that android wasn't reading the file well, since the configuration of the code was different. And it worked so smoothly
So my question is, does notepad++ write in the language needed for this to work?! or is there anything needed to change in order to make it legible to android system?
Thanks again
Sorry for all this noob questions, but since you use the same rom as mine, it's a good chance to ask what I don't know. lol
Our rom comes out with app2sd pre installed right?
So it was suposed that I could move some programs to sd.
But, when I go to settings/apps manager There's the option to move apps to sd, but they all say "fail moving the app".
What do I have to do to make it work well?! Heard that the sd had to be partitioned. What program did you use to do that?!
That's the only thing left to make x8 perfect and full of memory lol
Thanks
I managed to OC it manually to 710 MHz in miniCM6, BUT no performance increase was detected. Quadrant score was consistently lower (~750) compared to no overclock (~850),
Any ideas?
I OCed it to 719MHZ with miniCM and i really felt an improvement. Switching menus and sliding on the home-screen (GO launcher) is really smoother.
Quadrant-Standard-Score:
@600MHz (ON DEMAND): ~520
@719MHz (PERFORMANCE): ~920

and about battery life, noticed any difference after OverClock your Phone?

it drains a bit faster with the PERFORMANCE-govenor, but my phone is loaded every night anyway.
It is even less important to me, because when it reacts faster, i don't need to have it turned on as long as when it is laggy. And the display really needs most of the battery-power, so i may even save battery, when i can turn it off earlier.
Return to 600mhz
I can not use the overclock because when I reboot the phone it is on 691Mhz soon after he returns to 600mhz. I know that the CPU clock is dynamic, but he never returns to 691mhz. What did I do wrong? I used the XDA tutorial for overclocking.
Don't work yet
I just try full wipe and did not work. I think it's some parameter or file permission...

[Q]MiniCM6-1.0.0 - bugs

I cant post in MiniCM6 thread so i hope post in this sectio will be ok
Im runing on my X8 this rom from 3 days but some thinks that should work is not working correct.
1. terminal was working but i couldnt write any think - nothing shows on screen when i write. I try to reinstal terminal but i have FC after instaling new one.
How to fix this?
2. OC not remember last setings after reboot. it have to be set again.
any way great rom and nice work.
1. Press option button, tap in 'Toggle soft keyboard'.
2. In set cpu you have to check 'Set on Boot'. Becareful, if you set the freq too high you might get boot loop.

Version 1.0.0 works fine for me. I've been using it since it was released and I've noticed only one reboot. There are patches that fixes compass and camera as well (read the thread). It's stable enough for daily usage (tested with ARC theme).
Cheers!

[Q] Some problems in XGin4.0 2.3.4

Hi guys! I have to post in this general section just because I have not reached 10posts yet in "android development".
So I upgraded shpit's ROM from XGin3.0 to XGin4.0 just one hour ago, and i discovered two (maybe stupid) problems: i can't install Facebook and Applanet!
But system seems to work fine just for now.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks in advance.

first try this
reboot to xrecovery and flash xgin4
factory reset ( full wipe )
exit and with root explorer just and only copy X8oc.ko in system/modules
don't edit hw_config it's already configured
go to settings and and choose cyanogenmod settings
then go to performance and select cpu settings
there should be max and minimum set maximum speed on whatever works just don't try to get it too much high the higher freq won't always make the system better sometimes it won't even reboot and works fine but the speed isn't better than lower freq
u can use quadrant to find it out and check your cpu score when you increase freq your score should be higher if you noticed that it's not increased or it just got lower on score ! revert it back to lower freq and see if your phone works without reboots and hangs
and second
mddi module is preinstalled it is present on modules and yes it is not configured in hw_config but i believe it is loaded and the run command must be somewhere in firmware and maybe in lib files

Sounds to me you need to root the "Ace" and use the command promt(Windows), Terminal(*NIX) and with ConnectBot/Terminal Emulator is for android(terminal thingy for it).
And follow the thing to do "typing" a2sd repair".

Need help :(

Ok so i am doing a module for dual touch (the fake one for synaptics) and i write this in terminal emulator
dmesg | grep cyttsp-i2c
and it shows nothing
soo i try it with the su command and then still nothing
and i restard do the same thing and still noting
So dose it mean i dont have a digitizer ???
The touch works and dual touch is working perfectly.

select 4 and than 1
btw how do you stand with DT fot synaptics ???

in toolbox select x8 module and than check x8 digitizer (4 than 1)
@ OP do you mean you have made a DT module but you are not sure even which digitizer you got ?
Spevky i have the same issue, but 2 days ago i've tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1135965 on stock 2.1 and the answer in terminal was cyttsp_i2c_probe: Successful registration cyttsp-i2c, so i've installed MultiTouch Visualizer 2 and check and it's ok, but in maps or opera mobile it's not work (because stock rom).
So i've change rom to GingerDX v003 i try again and got no answer in terminal emulator, like you.
I'll check this more later by putting this module in phone and try again with execute command in terminal and next MultiTouch Visualizer 2.
