Overclocking the Ideos X5 - Huawei Ideos X5 U8800

Hello everyone!
I haven't rooted/ overclocked a phone before.So I could need some help (I know the basics). I have the phone for 2months now and I'm thinking about overclocking it to 1-1.2 ghz. Is there anyway back from rooting and overclocking (becourse of the warranty...).And what's TempRoot? Will I be able to overclock it after updating it to 2.3 (becourse of the kernel)...(IF the update schould come.....who knows?)

1ghz is ok. that's for sure. I dont think you need higher, but if you need, just lower it after need. To remove root and OC, just install stock rom. 2.3 custom roms, yes. Official which is for u8800pro, no.

I mean the official u8800/ x5 2.3 rom that hasn't come out for now...
DobI need a custom kernel to overclock? What's temp root?

Yes, there is no official, but there is custom roms. I dont know what were i thinking when i wrote my answer. Yes, you need custom kernel, so custom rom does the job. Temp root lasts until restart. so when you restart your phone, you'll lose it.

But there will COME an orginal 2.3 soon™ Are there problems with custom roms?(wifi....) Is it easy to flash orginal back? Os there a kernel to overclock on orginal rom?
And thx for your answers!

There is always problems, but those are usually written in the post.
You can check this link. It is ultimate guide for u8800 in modaco. It includes how to return to official.
There is no kernel for original rom.

Thx for the link. What's the best ideos x5 rom? What's the most "stock android like" rom. Maybe Oxygen? Will the orginal 2.3 be installed like an custom rom? Or is it something like an update? I don't want to break/lose warranty of my phone...How can I reset to stock when the phone has an problem at booting or volume keys?

So the orginal kernel doesn't support overclocking? And there's no overclock kernel for the stock rom...?

I have oxygen-2.3.1-u8800_r1 for over a week now.
Super Fast (It is running on 1024 Mhz) ,touchscreen reacts superfast ,no delay , no lag, ,superstable and the only problems that there are some apps that need reinstalling , like wifi-tether and google-voice and a few other I do not remember right now.
I edited the system/etc/media_profiles.xml and turned sample frequency to 30.000
and the sound with the recorded video is perfect now.
Battery life is good (altough I only switch wifi on when I need to download something because I do not have an umlimited mobile-data package)
For me , the Oxygen rom is perfect, Many thanks to the developer

Most stock like is void. few pages back in development section. And superboot, yes. Forgot it before. It should work, but take backup just for cause.

Wifi doesn't work in custom roms,works fine in officials

Hello! So i got back my phone, where i have left it to get it fixed. I updated to 2.3.5, rooted and then tried to install aurora 5. Wifi wasn't working so i thought it might be because of the version. I tried other versions of aurora but that worked neither. I then tried miui elite and also wifi is not working. Though in official 2.1 and 2.3 it's working just fine. In custom roms it keeps saying "connecting". Could someone help me?
