Hi! Few days ago I've changed my ROM from Energy to 826x Series(from 18/10/2010). Xperia seems to be running smooth at stock speed, but this ROM allowed me to OC my device up to 768Mhz(tested with sk tools, it is really that speed). It's great, no SOD or any other glitches(With energy my x1 had SODs even at ~650-670Mhz).

@fil--21, let me answer :) Firstly, install MSM7kCpuSpeed to your device memory. Then install SetCpuSpeed to your sd card(when it asks you to choose speed and intervals click "cancel", it will install anyway). Then launch your favourite registry editor, go to HKLM -> Software -> Msm7kcpuSpeed and there set following parameters:
BootTime = 70000 (it is time in milisecods, 70000 = 70 seconds, you can increase this value to 90 000 if you meet any hangs at boot). you shouldn't go below that value -> it is good to let your xperia fully boot, and that change cpu clock.
CheckTime -> you can experiment with it. around 20 is fine(I'm currently using 17)
PerformanceLevel - 40 (40 means 768Mhz, every step = 19.2Mhz)

There are the only values you should change. Of course, after every boot you should wait those ~ 2 minutes before using phone(just to make sure you won't get sod).
BTW, I'm using v1 version of Msm7kCpuSpeed, it seems to cause less sods and other glitches(for me, at least).

The speed you are talking work when phon is unpluged from PC?Because,when I open MSM7kCpuSpeed v1 it dislpayed one speed at the top o the screen,and in the botom is displayed other speed 604 and it write CPU speed without AC power.

The '604Mhz' button you're talking about is just a button for setting cpu speed to 604Mhz. It is essential only when using only Msm7kCpuSpeed application(without SetCpuSpeed). Current cpu speed in Msm7kCpuSpeed is the one at the top. And yes, I've been using my X1 clocked at 768Mhz for a few days without any glitches or SODs.

Well, I haven't noticed any significant changes in battery life(cpu is overclocked only when screen is on, otherwise cpu is in powersave state afaik). The ROM version is: 21682|18/10/2010. I really recommend this ROM, it's very fast and power efficient even without overclocking the cpu.

Overclocking X1

I've read thr: this thread and i have tried different settings this is what i have now just feel like sharing it with everyone who cares!!!
My settings (which seem to be very good with my Device) are:
Boottime= 90000
Checktime= 17
Comand= 0
performance level= 38
Screenoffperformancelevel= 27(stock speed)

And my speed =729.16Mhz

Sktools values:
integer= 449.7083
floating point= 10.471
Ram speed = 1051
(Although i don't know what all these means:D, I'm just a user whose interest is in improving the functionalities of my phone.LOL)

I thank the author of this program for his effort and want to say XDA is the place to learn faster...
I hope the information given above will help somebody to attain good and stable speed GOOD lUCKAND REMEMBER:ALL AT YOUR OWN RISK>>>>

hi..
i have question..
when i overclocked the cpu speed,if im booting android,is it in android the cpu speed same as overclocked?
please answer me someone....
Android did not load for me when i overclocked the X1. :(
Using Williyung's 826x Series ** WM 6.5.3 build [21682] - Sense 2019 (18/10/2010)
and Xperia-Xdandroid-X1 2.2.1 19.11.
When i clicked "haret.exe" the screen froze and the phone stopped responding completely... --> soft reset needed. :(
Anyways, after i resetted back to stock performace everything worked flawlessly.

default Android can not support OC, kernel needed be modified, I read there are some special Android version support OC, but not for SE X1 now.

if you want to OC Android
try put this code in Starup.txt at cmdline
Code:
acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=######
change ###### with your freq.
stable at 600000 mhz

have u got xperia wm7 ?
lol bro that thing as far as I know does not exist
and I can tell u 4 sure that x1 with win mo 7 is science fiction
I was reading abt this a couple of months ago and x1 lacks in h/w
we just have to take another phone...
I would probably go to htc, very dissapointed from SE's company behavior.
(both in X1 and my old p990. only p900 was great)
