Hello this is my second post.
I downloaded yesterday the app "WinMoSpeed" and i am wondering how far i can go with overclocking. I really don't want that my blackstone bricks. So what is a safe level of mhz i can set ? Currently it's set to 576,0 Mhz, but i don't know if that's too high or too low so i can go further. Please help .
hi, i have pushed my blackstone at 730mhz, but sometimes hangs, and I need to softreset.
Using it a 653 mhz works fine for me, but depends a lot on hardware, someone can overclock much more than others.
I do not think it could brick your device, only thing it could happen is a device hangs, you can solve it with a soft reset.
I've installed the overclock software on sd card, so if you mess up something you need just restart your device without the sd card and the frequency is set to default.
Hope i'd help.

PS. I DO NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSABILITY IF YOU OVERCLOCK YOUR DEVICE AND DO SOME DAMAGE.
In my experience safe overclock speeds for everyday use are 595 to 633. No overheating. No lockups.
Also it will not have a significat impact on your battery life.
Hi it's running at 710 mhz now, but my battery drains like hell. Is it because overclock or S2U2 ? I installed S2U2 at the same time with overclock.
In my opinion if it's for 100MHz it's really not worth the shot
Also, if you're also using Android maybe you wanna check out this thread:

710 MHz it's quite a OC, of course your battery it will drain a lot. I think that on about 650 MHz it enough for a snappier device and for a good battery life.
hope i help.

A question. Have you ever thought how many months will last after overcloack mobile phone? I think it will not last long ...

Take in mind that probably you will shorten the CPU life.
I tested on 614 MHz with no notable battery draining. It's about a 15~20% more than standard 528 MHz so I think it's enough to the poor Blackstone.
BUT I ALSO tried to create other "underclock" settings, so that when I sleep or rest, I leave the device "resting" like me (I need the phone running 24h/24). I tried that it will run not far of 200 MHz and I hope this will help the Blackstone life.

Hi, I'm not the best person to answer, but I think the android versions for this phone already comes with overclocking. Because the mobile phone quite warm at the bottom (like when we overclocked), and when I'm on windows mobile and pitch for the android when it is overclocked it will not let me open the andoid, a freeze of the mobile phone and need restart.
But what I think is probably a person becomes more knowledgeable than me to answer.
is possible overclock in android 2.2.2 with set cpu in the blackstone? thanks
Has anyone overclocked the Froyo build?
What's safe?

Hi,
Just trying to help people to overclock the wizard with OmapClock constantly.
Please post at what speed you have overclocked and for how long (hours/days) and the condition of the device if it's stable or not.
It might help people figure out a comfortable speed.
Thank you.
I have mine at 240mhz for couple of weeks it seems to work ok. Im wondering if it would damage the CPU in very long term.
I pretty much gave up on OC'ing. My phone has been hanging at various speed from 252 to 228.
Instead updated my rom along w/ registry hacks which has helped.

i'm running constantly 240 MHz thanks to SmartSKey for over one or maybe two months now, no problems at all. but there are people who run 252 or even 264 MHz without problems as well, but personally i think it could be dangerous for longer periods of time, so i stick with 'safe' 240 MHz.
I've been running at 240 MHz solid for a few days. Smartskey all the way
Ok What about overclocking an Qtek 9100?
What is safe and stable to do without dameging the device?

Most of what I've seen is about 240MHz. I've seen some have success as high as 264, but if you go much higher than that you run a real risk of burning out your processor.
Even I have read of people not going beyond 240 mhz. I have overclocked it t 234 mhz.
Cheers!
ive had mine running at 273mhz now for a few months with no problems at all
i have mine running at 286 mhz! no problems at all. beyond that it crashes.. tried 300 mhz, hehehe but crashed the ppc
i can post screenshot if you want! i use battery status and other tweaks as well. Works like a charm really.
And if you are afraid of damaging the CPU use the CPU scaller function of battery status!
Yeah screens would be nice thx all of you i clocked it to 264 now.
Can somebody answer to my question: Can, and how serious overclocking affect on battery standby/talk time?
Simple,more you overclock,more battery will be consumed.
And, how overclocking apply to phone performance? In percentage please.
Ive been running mine at 260 for almost a year now and no problems except the battery drain is noticeable vs 200
I just downloaded Jrummy's Overclocker and i was wondering what are some settings for a safe overclock. im shooting for 1.2

1.2 should be no problem although all phones are different. start with the low voltage at 1.1 make sure the phone is stable. a quick test is to open the browser and load a few pages. a GOOD test is to run quadrant. then just increase the speed until it locks up. pull the battery and set it down 1 or 2 speeds and thats your max stable overclock at that voltage. most people are able to run 1.2 or 1.3 with no issues. i can run at 1.3 with no issues. any higher and after a few days (or less respectively) my phone hangs. Also increasing voltage will yield higher clocks but will drain the battery faster. just play around if the phone locks up just pull the battery. also i would not play with the manual settings until you are familiar with the basic ones first.
I am most stable at 1.25ghz LV. Currently running GummyJAR2.5 with Blueberry Theme.
No issues. I would recomend installing AutoKiller. This is not same as Task Killer. It frees up memory. Same function as the one that comes with Jrummy Overclock but you can customize it more.
auto killer waste battery we have plenty of memory on our phones
so what do you recommend for a jrummy oc? i was thinkin 1.2 on lv
I can only get up to Low volt 1.15 otherwise. Once I click on anything higher i get a MAJOR hanging as soon as its done overclocking. pissed but guess thats just the point that all phones are different.

yup...some people can run 1.4 with no problems...try upping the voltage a little

I wasn't a believer until I installed it. My ram use to run low and some times made my DX run slow. Since installing the autokiller, my DX runs smoother, zippier and consistant. I have mine pre-set at extream. As for the battery, I don't notice any difference and I am semi heavy user. I been running Autokiller for a while.
Hey guys, I recommend using QuickClock Advanced for some real battery savings. It calculates the lowest stable vsel your cpu can handle and then you can overclock from there.
my settings
300mhz 15vsel
600mhz 30vsel
900mhz 45vsel
1200mhz 61vsel
I could never get over 1.1 using jrummy untill I changed the gov, use anything but "on demand" and I can get 1.4 all day. The stock settings work well using the "performance" gov but battery life can suffer if you get crazy. Performance keeps it running at top speed all the time. Hope this helps.

Ive used similar settings and worked fine on my phone running Rubix.
I am going to be getting an Atrix in the next few days and will install the Aura ROM right off the bat, but im wandering, since it appears to use an OC'ing kernal, what effect will this have on heat and battery life? presumably negative, but how much so? i dont want another phone which heats up like mad, but i do like the look of the ROM. please help out an Android n00b
thanks
Just because it can overclock doesn't mean you have to. I use set cpu and keep mine undervolted and set to 1.1ghz. Idle around 30 celsius and when I game it gets up to 50 degrees.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
the atrix on stock 1.0 ghz gets REALLY hot so yea i would assume it would just get hotter MUCH hotter but you can get a setcpu and just set your processor down when you dont use it much or make profiles to automatically do it
great, so the rom just allows OCing, not forces it? thats good to know, thanks

it will automatically clock itself to 1.3ghz, you'll need a program like SetCPU or PimpMyCPU to set it to not OC itself.
i suggest SetCPU myself, it can be found on the market. i prefer buying it over getting it for free here on XDA, we gotta support our devs right?
Im looking for someone to tell me what they think is there best settings to be used in there prefered app for example setcpu,faux123, do you overclock and to what settings, what has worked for you guys
i generally dont use my phone to much in a day so battery last the day so i dont mind it being overclocked when im using it if it means it runs faster but drains battery, some suggestion please, im a novice
no flames about i used the word 'best' im looking for opionons thankyou if you help

IMO, no overclock is required. The phone is fast and snappy enough.
That said, I underclock the minimum frequency and undervolt throughout the frequency table.
This ensures that I get better battery life, without any decrease in performance.
I'm running CyanogenMod 10.1.0 Stable Release.
I'm using franco.kernel r161, and his companion app - franco.kernel updater.
The following settings are giving me great performance and battery life.
CPU Frequency Range : Screen On - 384 MHz - 1512 MHz, Screen Off - 384 MHz
CPU Governor : Interactive
GPU Frequency: 400 MHz
Frequency Table Undervolt : -125 mV throughout
Disclaimer - This is for a {fast} binned CPU. Check your device's CPU binning via this link, and do some trial-error to find the perfect undervolt for your device.
Good Luck!
