MSM7230 > QSD8250

Ideos is a better buy IMO, new processor, smaller die size(45nm vs 65nm), newer gpu (Adreno 205 vs 200).


Also, am a new Ideos user here too. Previously also thought of getting a used desire, but heck for similar price the Ideos is superior to the Desire.

that means overclock is just have to download the apps and set the speed that u want?
which apps should i download for overclock purpose?

can i know your steps of repartition?
wanna do it for my phone

got some extra questions
when i go to App2SD
at the " On Phone " section
got no apps are shown at there
but at the bottom there shows that
my total is 590.56MB but only available 320.65 MB
where are the 269.91 MB gone?

the apps which are in " Phone Only " section
is mean that all the apps under the catogary is in ROM? or the 2GB internal memory

last question,
when i wanna kill tasks
i can see the memory is
XXXMB/354MB
how come my ram is only 354mb?
it should be 512 MB right?

really thanks a lot for answering my question!

i'm using setcpu.. once you install, juz launch it..
then u can set the min n max cpu speed that you wan.. i set mind to 1209 max n 245 min..

for the partition step, i just follow these (posted by someone earlier)

Guide for partition your X5[SIZE=7]

1) backup ur 2G internal sd storage, cause this will wipe it clear.

2) backup ur contact etc, this can be done by installing hi suit, u can download it from huawei face book.

3) install ClockWorkMod, the step are here, if u already have it ignore this step.

4) download partition.zip here

5) copy partition.zip to ur root of sd card, make sure ur sd card have ard 1g space. and no dload folder which contain official firmware

6) turn off ur phone and boot to recovery boot. (press only power and vol + button) if u have clockworkmod install, u will c the screen like this

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


7) in ur clockworkmod screen, pressing down (using vol - button) and select install zip from sdcard by pressing power button.

8) select choose zip from sdcard

9) select partition.zip and press the power button.

10) select Yes - install partition.zip

11) after install, go to advance menu, if u can c the advance me, press the back button on ur phone

12) select reboot recovery and press the power button. repeat step 7 until step 10 (yes, u have to install the same zip file twice.)

13) restart ur phone and done!

cant help much on app2sd since i didn't use it..

dont knw why mine still cannot be deleted
it has been granted superuser access

did you mount it as R/W (read write) before trying to delete those files ?? by default, it is R/O (read only)

if my phone is already rooted but havent clockworkmod
now i wanna do clockworkmod, can i just follow the steps given by u?
wil the double rooting affect anything?

Added on June 20, 2011, 12:24 pmsetcpu can be downloaded at android market?
after we set a higher clock speed, will it consume more battery power?

Added on June 20, 2011, 12:26 pmyea!
it says that cannot be deleted because it's read only
so how can i mount it as R/W?
cant see any R/W at the screen

This post has been edited by ShengHow: Jun 20 2011, 12:26 PM

what software are u using to delete these files ?

if you are using root explorer and you don't see the R/W button as i mentioned in my post earlier, i really dunno how to help cuz its on the first line of the page and the R/W button is pretty obvious.

see this sample

get setcpu from here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419

@ShengHow

Here's SetCPU guide - http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-all-things...tcpu-guide.html

For me, I set it:

Max - 1209600
Min - 245760

Scaling - ondemand

I dont think it is possible to OC with stock rooted rom or w/o flashing OC kernel, at least i cant even superbooted, max cpu frenquency only 806mhz for my case.

rooted using Superboot @ MoDaCo MAX @ 806mhz tops
shadow111, i wanna know too

found 1 more guy having same problem
lol

Goto your setCPU --> Info Tab. Then tap Device. See what it says under Kernel. Most likely, its the kernel from geno where u flashed earlier before u back to stock ROM

i also not sure why my setcpu can use..
earlier, i root using the methods on page 1.. after that, i perform the re-partition..
after that i install clockworkmod n do a backup..
after backup, i install with B160 rom.. play around with it, dont like it at all..
so i restore back to ori using clockworkmod.. so now, i'm bck to ori ROM (B136)..
i can install setcpu n modify the speed/etc..

i remember someone said there is 2 diff ROM version available in msia. maybe one version can overclock, another cannot gua..

Added on June 20, 2011, 4:10 pmmine for the kernel -> Linux version 2.6.32.9-perf (geno@geno-desktop)
do u mean that my kernel is not the standard/ori anymore?

This post has been edited by shadow111: Jun 20 2011, 04:10 PM

Taadaaa !!! I guessed correctly. See how i said most likely the kernel u using is from geno ??

and yes ,your info on the kernel already clearly described that kernel is a custom kernel by geno

so is that mean customize the kernel is required for OC?

A lot of repeated questions/answers here. Any way of making separate threads for different issues? Easier to organise and search/ask/get answers.
