Weird problem with my phone - XPERIA X8 General

Hi all! Yesterday I installed GingerDX and alfs kernel (both the latest version), with full wipe and everything seems ok. But today, some strange display glitches appeared on display. Picture looks like cut. It's difficult for me to explain it, watch the video and see.

Try Re-flashing your ROM... Initiate full wipe before reflashing

Happens. Often made worse by overclocking. Don't fret. Start over again as advised

If you overclock on Alfs kernel, you have to set the governor to smartassV2 before you raise the cpu clock to prevent screen cuts. I use my phone with 691mhz always, but with smartassv2 governor, there wasn't any cuts, but as soon as I set to ondemand, there is garbage on screen. Hope it helps.

[q] cm 7 rc1

Hi guys,
i tried CM7 but it was really laggy at my device, a lot of you guys said it is a very fast release !? so how can i get it working smooth ? when i wanted to get into the cpu settings i had a force close every time, jit was enabled..
do i have to get setcpu ? when yes where? which frequencies run smooth and stable ?
thanks in advance

Wipe EVERYTING, install CM7 then install HCDR.Kernal 4.1 (4.2 doesn't work as well) then use another overclock program, not setcpu, it doesn't work well with CM7. Hope that helps you!
* First, try flashing Kernel v4.1. CM7 comes with Kernel 4.2 by default, and, because it is clocked at 768 max, it leads to a lot of stability problems for everyone. Look for the HCDR.Kernel Topic in Wildfire Android Development Zone
* After that, you can install SetCPU. The SetCPU Dev has a thread here on XDA where he has posted the APK of SetCPU for download. Just enter SetCPU in the search bar and you should be able to find the thread with no issues. Here, you can set the max (Upto 710 recommended) and min (upto 245 recommended)
This should solve your lag and stability issues. If it still doesn;t, two more apps which can cause lag are (Note: This affects only a small %age of members with CM7)
* SetCPU (Alternative: OverclockWidget)
* ADW.Launcher (Alternative: Any other Launcher)
Oh, and CPU Settings FC's for everyone, from the time it was implemented. Looks like it is not ready yet.
Good Luck
hey 3xeno, thanks for your tipps!
with kernel 4.1 + setcpu + adw.launcher ex it finally works good!
the only thing thats a little strange is that i couldnt use my overclock setup from the openfire rom i had before, i have your suggested settings + screen of profile (352 max 245 min)+ tmep > 46° profile (352 max 245min), with openfire it was possible to have it at 691 mhz max and 245mhz min for normal mode, now i had to put it on 614 max 245min to not get the battery too warm, but anything else works great

That is rather weird, because, many are keeping it at 710 MHz Max and having no issues. What is your battery temperature when you keep it at 691? (And at idle. It is normal for the phone to get warm when you continuously run a heavy app like a game on it, also, I am sure you know this, but dont measure during charging, it does get pretty warm then )
hmm i played around with the phone a little and then put it in my pants pocket, after wa while when i put it back out it has restarted i guess and i was very warm at the back...hmm ill test it a little perhaps it was a one time thing

leedroid lag?

Hi, I've just flashed leedroid but I seem to be suffering with some small amount of lag that I didn't experience on the stock Rom..... when I open messages or emails for example there is a small pause, and u can visibly see the screen refresh. I never suffered with this this beforehand. Also I have noticed that I'm getting some lag when changing certain settings, the leedeoid Icon pops up whilst its thinking..... now, so far I haven't gotten around to installing the LeeDrOiD Ace V2.2.5 R2 Kernel, is that likely to fix my little issue?
Cheers
Steve
After flashing, have you done another reboot? Sometimes I find a new ROM doesn't settle until I've rebooted a couple of times. Give it a try and see how it feels then report back either way
Let it bed in steve, should have dropped this in the rom thread

Thanks for the reply Lee, but as citizenlee said, I'm unable to post in that section at present.
So far i still seem to be having the slow refresh issue on sms and emails, do u think that the fact I haven't flashed the Ace V2.2.5 R2 Kernel yet could be part of the issue? I'm certainly going to try flashing it to see if it helps..... I know know you've put a heck of a lot of work into this and believe me it is appreciated, just hope I can get it working as well as it was intended.
You could try the kernel... and failing that a full wipe and reflash of the ROM should sort you out
problem

dear lee i have installed your PERFECT rom 2.2 1.8 ghz
but it has frozen 2 times the screen and after rebooting it stays frozen...?
this also happened with coredroid ..any suggestions my friend?
regards(i am new here^^)
Ok, i think i got to the bottom of my lag problems. I have been playing around with set cpu today. I think the minimum speed of 245mhz in smartass was too low and was causing the lag (usually when waking the phone from screen off) I have now changed settings to 'ondemand' with a minimum speed of 245mhz and maximum of 1344mhz but i also created a 'screen off' profile with a working range of 245mhz to 576mhz which seems to give it a bit more poke when waking from screen off No more lag! ( i still have the visible refresh issue i mentioned, maybe i'm imagining that one though, maybe it did do it on the stock rom but i didn't take note of it....??)
So, i really have no idea if i've done the right thing with the way i have set up setcpu so if anyone would care to comment on the settings i've used please do so.
Many thanks again for all the help.

CM7 and Phiremod 6.3 issue

I got my wife a Nook Color a while back, and installed CM 7.0 n it. It ran fine, and I had it OC'ed at 1100. Since then, I've installed 7.0.3, which gave me a wifi error. I decided to run Phiremod 6.3 (running great), but I have a strange issue.
When i go into performance settings to overclock, it freezes immediately after choosing any speed. I can't even change the governor from on demand to interactive without it freezing. It locks up so that I have to turn it off and back on again. No luck in changing the CPU speed. I never had issues before running at 1000 on previous dalingrin kernels, not sure why its acting up. I did do a complete wipe of system before installing.
Can i try using SetCPU or something similar instead, or should I be looking at something else?
Try setcpu like you said. If u have the time tho, why not wipe the whole thing and try installing phirrmod again?
Tried it again, with the same result. Not sure what's going on there, but I'll try SetCPU and report back. Thanks for the reply.

So how did Setcpu work out for you?

CPU isn't scaling - stuck on 100%

Hi all, not sure how to address this, but my battery's been a little crappy lately. I downloaded SETCPU after not using it for ages, and I noticed when i set it that my CPU seemed stuck on the fastest speed. Downloaded SeeCPU and confirmed. So though my min-max is set at 245-986, it's always on 986.
I'm using Kushdeck’s latest w/ the stock kernel (which is the cyanogen kernel), and I even went so far as to wipe all data and re-flash everything...still no luck. Any ideas on how to proceed?
Did you disable the perf-lock in setcpu?
We're comin from a pure power source.
Yes, perflock is disabled. I can lower the cpu speed, but it wont scale. So the default is 998, and typically I'd set the min/max at 245/998. I noticed that the CPU was always at 998, it never scaled down. Now I have the min/max set at 768/245 and it's always on 768. If perflock were disabled I thought I wouldn't be able to change the speed at all, though I may be wrong there...I also tried the perf unlocker in setcpu and it reports that it is already unlocked.
At this point I wiped data, cache, and Dalvik. Re-flashed the rom (deck's aosp rom) , stock kernel, practically no apps installed except setcpu and seePU to monitor usage.
Oh and the governor is the default, I think interactive...
Try another governor like conservative and see. After that I'd try another kernel or download the stock one again in case something is buggered in yours

Thanks already tried a different governor, tried a tiamat kernel, then said screw it and reinstalled the rom from scratch. Still having the same issue. I may go back to a sense rom to see of that makes a difference.
Hi, I know and understand what problem you're having. I had this on my desire. Run a ruu or flash a pb99img. The problem only happens on non sense roms. This is the only solution to make non sense roms work. Just try it. Good luck!

I ended up flashing back to Myn 2.2 (which is Sense) and it started working again. Thanks!

Overclock Cyanogen settings

I have rooted abdroid 2.3.4 with cyanogen 7 and in the settings there is one that i can change the maximum value to cpu...Now is at 998....what value above that is the safest to choose with out the phone have any problem???
depends which rom it is
some can go up to 1.5 and some cant
Can also depend on the phone, I have 2 hd2s, one chuggs along nicely at 1075mhz, the other gives random slowdowns / hangs (4-5 a week,not lots but enough to be a pain) at any setting above 921mhz. Same rom,same installed apps, same data.
Well here are the Phone Info
Model
HTC HD2
Andorid
2.3.4
.......
15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14

Anyone?

The best thing to do is scale up gradually, try each step above 998. OC then try it for 24hours, then try a step up and try it for 24 hours and so on. Do not check set at boot though just in case you pick a speed that causes problems.
What can go wrong???How do i see that it cant support a number??We are talking about maximum price and not all the time...???Someone that tried and have it overclocked????
What can go wrong???
It coukd stop booting and require a hard reset/backup restore.
How do i see that it cant support a number??
It will start to give force closes, hang, reboot, feel sluggish..
We are talking about maximum price and not all the time...???Someone that tried and have it overclocked????
Do a cwm backup and just try it, worst case scenario is it doesn't boot and you have to restore.

I would guess that the majority of users are overclocked. I, for example, am running my phone smoothly at 1.2 GHz without problems, but to be honest I scarcely notice the difference with overclocking. Dorimanx's kernel with 1.61 GHz overclock didn't really perform any better than Tytung r14 at 1.2 GHz.
Just do as the others said and try it out whilst making sure to uncheck 'set on boot', but I think any speed should really be fine.
I don't know what the general opinion is on this (some devs say it isn't a good app) but use setCPU in order to create profiles if you want, thus being able to reduce your standby battery drain and stuff like that
In the quandra the info of the phone whrites that the cpu is up to 1190mhz and know is at 998.Is this true?Can it go that much?
If so we can put it at 1113 that its safe?
I know that i ask again and again but i dont want the phone to lose or damage
Youre best bet would be to download setCPU and try different clock speeds . the thing about setCPU though is it has a stress test . So after you set a speed . you can run the stress test to test if its too high a value or if you are safe to run at that speed . just dont tick the box that says "apply at boot"
My phone (currently Dorimanx ROM) is stable at 1536MHz. On Cyanogen it was similar. On 1612 it had freezen for a few times while watching a flash video on youtube. Set it to 1,4GHz, and it should work fine. Phone will not damage, data too. Just as they written above, do not click apply at boot.
And make stress test for more than 10 mins, because I have done it for 10 mins, and as I written, it had freezed during YT watching.
The topest that it has is 1190..that is the last option !!!I put it at 1113 for one day know and i made a profile to go 573 when i close the screen.
Tomorow i try the next option antil 1190 ...and we will see
Tytung r10? Why not upgrade to another Kernel?
I think that's the core issue. Dorimanx kernels i.e. can be clocked solid to 1.2ghz
Oh, I've completly forgotten. I have used Dorimanx kernel with Cyanogen. But it doesn't let you reinstall rom from settings (Factory reset). You need to reinstall rom from zip or restore backup in CWM. On 1190 it will work stable for ever
