There are no requirements, you just have to be rooted. Install GingerXperia it has the overclock module built in. Personally I find it alot faster and smoother than GingerDx.

Thanks @Nimbah..... How much It will increase probably i ned 708 Mhz.. Can i ask you another question, if i want to play N.O.V.A How much mhz that i should need.

It depends on the rom you are using.

It really depends on your phone and rom, I can get stable at 710MhZ so it should be good. 710 should be okay for Nova, install chainfire3D if it crashes.

Hello ... dude if your are into gaming
..then go for mini cm 7 or froyo roms they are smoother

We need a kernel.

Ok,so here we have just one working kernel,and its linuxDX.but,it works just with gingerDX.now,we need a kernel wich will work on all 2.3 roms,because it probably will be written on gb sources.i unfortunately dont understand development of such things,but someone who does please help us.
And overclock built in kernel would be good too.
Cheers,xuser132
Maybe linuxdx will be supported for others roms too, because its in the first post in the linuxdx thread.

Check the development thread you will.get most of the answers there
yes upto 1.4ghz...
and im one of the lucky ones to have one that can go stable @ 1.4 too!
but this phone does have a disadvantage .....
a weak gpu.
this problem is being solved but as of now it can play hd games, but some are a bit slow.
well.....give me some time..... il need to think about trading.......
other than the gpu, i think this phone does great at everything else.....
OC to 1.4ghz is only available in older g3mod kernels. Current g3mod kernels only to 1.2ghz. Fugumod up to 1366. Ultra and alpha 21 i think.

FIMG 3DSE
Quadrant- 860 on CM7,
Froyo- 350-750 (depends on the rom
Neocore ~13fps
G3 is better that X8 anytime. Go for it

Best ROM for my mum...?

I'm giving my mum my old X8...
I've currently got it on Alfs 7 and gingerdx v25.
Should I just leave it as it is or will she be phoning me about random crashes ? lol...
Hopefully she won't stumble upon performance setting and change stuff haha.

Why not choose an 'eye-candy' ROM? I think mums like those things...
Sent from my X8 using Tapatalk
the best rom is 2.1 on on stock
it is stable and victorious
FroyoPro 2.5...
Thats what I installed on my wife's phone. Stable with all the bells and whistles...
Sent from my MT11i using Tapatalk
If you want bug free use original 2.1 eclair. If you want a fast stable rom with less bugs use GingerDX v025 with Alfs 08a.
best would be if you take 2.1 (bug free) like the one above said,
use overclock module to get it run bit faster like 729mhz or whatelse it can handle
remove the unneeded apps (games etc).
Only problem at 2.1 is Cpu Float Point is very low but other scores are ok.
But i don't think your mum cares about Benchmark
and ICS Theme would be cool for 2.1 but i don't know if that is possible for stock rom =/ (has no thememanager) and idk if you can install one

[Tip] for better gaming performance (it's totally work)

First of all you need to have all thease stuffs:
1. unlocked bootloader
2. Rooted
First, flash the lastiest cm7 rom and kernel (not cm9)
Then, install chainfire3d and it plugin.
Go to settings - cm setting - performance - CPU setting - available governors - set it to ondemand, go to min cpu frequency - set it to 122, Max to 1401 - check set on boot
Open chainfire3d - go to default opengl settings - check reduce texture quality, - go to use plugins - set it to nvidia. Done!
Enjoy your massive improvement of gaming performance on xperia arc/arc S
Tested games:
-asphalt 6
-riptied gp
-Shadow gun
-cs protable
Edited: if you want a little bit faster overclock to 1.6 ghz
Don't for get to hit thank if i help you!

Why are you on xda developers?
Things like overclocking and modding are the whole point of this site.
While you might not want to unlock your bootloader and other things which "might" brick your phone, it is also unlikely you will if you follow the developers guides properly.
This guide here has nothing unusual that people aren't doing to their phones already.

first of all i think you are right, but your first sentence was really unnecessary, he is just giving us his opinion.
I've tried this on my old device (SGT-5570)
It's become faster, no lag. But we'll sacrifice the graphic quality
chainfire3d
from where can I install it ????
is it a programme in the market or what

Simple, for nvidia games.
Thanks! just downloading cm7 now
Ok! So we install nvidia for nvidia game? I though that it was based on the phone chipset and installed qualcomm. By the way, how do u know its working? I can't make out the difference after installing chainfire!
P.S. mine runs on stock froyo!
So is it even working?

Okay... But I don't think there's really a need of these kinds of threads.
We are proud of you
i just wanna show the performance of the arcs LT18i, using this kernel and rom. i did what i did because someone, may wanna use this two, could see before using it. simply to help someone to get first idea.
thanks.

im already tried antutu. i installed both quadrant and antutu. as i said, i see no harm to try all kind of benchmark apps.
for my benchmark result using antutu, u can use following link; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37214993&postcount=70
purpose of this thread is to see "quadrant Benchmark results on lt18i with specific kernels and roms. not to compare with others.
however, thank for advice.
best regards.
