I didnt want to root my phone HTC WILDFIRE because I am a little noob at these things a I thought I would totally destroy my phone.
But I found out that it is not so hard to root it as I thought, so today I succesfully rooted my phone. Than I wanted to overclock my procesor from 528 Mhz to I think 768 by downloading new kernel etc... Everything went good. I succesfully installed(or what, I said I am a little noob) that new kernel and was happy that my Wildfire will be faster.
But now I can see that my phone is lagging more, sometimes it freezes what i couldnt see before when It had original kernel.
HOW IS IT POSSIBLE?
Pls help
Do you have SetCPU installed? Then turn it a bit down, till 690~710 Mhz
Maxing it totally out can make your phone unstable. Think about it like a car, when it has 100 hp's and you tune it to 150 hp's things might break.
From stock 528 to 768 isn't a walk in the park, it's +45%
Yes I have setCPU and when I set my procesor to about 710 Mhz it lags and freezes. When I set it to about 580 it is doing the same. The only one solution of this I think is to reinstal the kernel.
Now I have 2.6.32.21-HCDRJacob-ga91 e 73b- [email protected] 1.
That is the full name of it. And in setcpu info it shows me before the version ( 2.6.32.21-HCDRJacob-ga91 e 73b- [email protected] 1) Linux versio... Maybe thats the problem???
And I have to find some solution as fast as possible because sometimes when somebody calls me I cant answer because of a biiiig lag. And then I cant do anything.
Thx for help
What id the minimum speed set to? I wouldn't go below 160. And my max is 672mhz.
Are you running different profiles or just the main profile in setCPU? Mine used to lag when i had a few profiles running but i have removed them all and only using the main profile and the lag has now gone.
when i went to wildpuzzle i found whatever speed i set my processor through set cpu it froze about 4-5 times a day. after flashing the kernel to remove overclocking it has not frozen in a week. everything really responsive, checking auto detect speeds with set cpu shows max 528mhz min450mhz
I tried many options and at last its OK. firstly I had a big difference between max and min of my procesor at setCPU, so I tried to set it to min about 630 and max about 700.
Now it is OK I dont know how, but I am happy the ****y problem is somehow solved and everytjing now goes very smoothly, thx u all

So what kernel did you flash it to?
Hi I`ve got SetCPU installed and flashed jacobs 0130 kernal so I can overclock my Wildfire.
Now I`ve got a small issue, I`ve set it at 710 max and 556 min settings and it seems to be running fine, but when the battery starts getting a bit low it causes it to freeze and have problems running some apps. I know its personal choice for how much it is overclocked but are there any recommended speeds for min and max settings to get it running well or is it just a question of experimenting until I get it to my liking?
I have searched the forums and everyone seem to have different preferences.
Thanks again Nexus04
I got random freezes using SetCPU too. I uninstalled and used OverclockWidget instead, havent had a single freeze since
Thanks I`ll have a look at that
why do you have your minimum setting overclocked? the slowest your phone can go even with screen off is 556, no wonder phone chucking a hissy fit
i'm running 691 max 245 min set on performance, not one freeze.
running wildpuzzle v.08
Thanks ephbee, thats made that clear for me, I was having a "DOH" moment there
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
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

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
Guys, currently when i try to use ANY custom rom, N or MM... i cant control properly the maximum frequency of the cpu, this happens is ANY rom, i repeat xD
mpdecision / and another hotplugs turned off, but still cant control it.
same with custom kernels, disable hotplug, select maximum frequency about 1200-1400 it works for some seconds, but then it starts to scale down to 800mhz, and stay in the range between 1094mhz and 800 mhz. the device gets laggy as hell, to the point where i cant play poke-go or even other games, and chatting/browsing becomes a terrible expecience.
already tried to turn on "performance mode" on battery menu, and even tried to use hotplugs, but with no sucess.
if any of you had this trouble and managed to fix it, plz help me :crying:
I have this too, it's horrible, it makes the device so much worse

Using late autumm kernel with L speed... You can install it from play store and set it to performance mode
I also face this problem a lot
