[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Conpsycon:
So here’s what I got: It’s not about getting more power out of your processor. It’s something else..

As a PC Overclocker, getting more power out of the Phone’s processor was the first thing I thought was behind Phone Overclocking. But that should be impossible right? I mean.. how the hell are you gonna cool that thing? You can’t.. And it is. That’s why benchmarks give you the finger after you OC your phone. At best you’ll get about 15% more “points”, which of course is laughable.. But then again why do people do it? Is it a fetish? Well it’s not. It’s about these three things:

UI Reaction Time – UI Animations Smoothness – Memory Management

Three things that determine the quality of your daily experience with your phone.

Every vendor makes his own adjustments to the Kernel that determines the behavior of the hardware in response to the software. Some make it right, some don’t. And when you find yourself hostage to the latter, the only way you can break free and restore your phone’s true potential, is with a custom Kernel that allows you to adjust it. And it’s not even necessary to increase the frequencies! Tightening the timings, or even better eliminating them, can make all the difference in the world! But since a Mobile Chip has a built in protection against overheating, and raising the frequencies could not possibly harm it, then what hell.. why not?

And that god damn memory management that doesn’t let you have more that 4 - 5 apps in the background, even though you have 4 GB of RAM!.. what the hell is that! Well you can fix that too.

So you see, appearances can be deceiving. Phones are different creatures that the PCs. We do different things with them, so we need different things from them. And if you’re willing to give up just a little bit of your battery life.. man..you will NOT wanna go back!

So that’s it!

PS. Speaking of battery life, there is also that thing called “Underclocking”. It can even double your battery life, but of course the price would be the exact opposite effects of the above. Every man has his poison!..
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] barrack1:
That is false. Even with thermal protection, the lifespan of the cpu can be drastically reduced if its overclocked and constantly running hot.

And many users overclock in order to get a better experience playing games.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Conpsycon:
That is true in general. It's called electromigration and it doesn't matter if you cool it well enough. It is caused by the increased kinetic energy of the electrons. But phone CPUs don't get stressed enough to see it happening. Even in PCs where actual overcloking takes place, it would take many years to actually see it happening, and a very serious increase in performance.

So in comparison one could say that it really is safe.

One interesting thing that someone said to me last night though, is that custom kernels don't have a perfect temperature throttling when necessary. So one should check the temps in the initial stage of testing to make sure that it doesn't get too hot.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Conpsycon:
Two useful links about CPU Temperatures:

https://www.xda-developers.com/processor-temperature-results-for-tens-of-socs-how-hot-is-your-chip/

https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-safe-temperature-of-mobile-CPU
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] barrack1:
I would've disagree with that. Overclocking used to work reasonably well a long time ago but for about 10-15yrs the headroom in desktop cpu's have shrunk and overclocking does not give stable results. My own experiences coincides with what I've heard with people who work in IT who build/sell pc's - overclocked cpus will encounter much more errors and intermittent problems and will require resetting back to stock clocks or even underclocking in order to be stable.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Conpsycon:
Check this out for example: I underclock my CPU to 1689MHz from 2000MHz, but I change the governor to Performance, which keeps the cores constantly to that frequency WHEN operational. The result is a MUCH snappier behavior with no apparent latency, zero stress to the CPU, and battery compensation by the lower frequency.

Could you do that otherwise? :) That's what I'm talking about! Full flexibility!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] barrack1:
Thats not overclocking and you did not talk about flexibility. Even the title of your thread says "Overclock".

You said overclocking cpus on pc's and phones were safe and would take "many years" to see any degradation.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Conpsycon:
I said both of them, and they do not conflict with each other. I explained it in my first post.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] lolvatveo:
Underclocking is a bad thing. unless you can't overclock much because of battery and temperature limitations, underclocking is not recommended. It depends on your governor, a stupid governor will slow you down and be visible on weak devices. your case is due to have stupid governor in phone, but suitable with strong device & want to save battery but don't need to lock freq at maximum
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] lolvatveo:
cpu will not degrade in life no matter how high frequency, overclock and runs continuously but its life cycle will be affected by high temperature and high voltage

[Amazon Fire Phone] JackCheck:
Atm i use this Phone as my Daily Driver. Just for testing for my Blog, but i love it. I wait for the Note 9 and i am really sad to use this not longer as Daily. Before that i had the S9 Plus, Pixel 2 XL, P20 Pro, OnePlus 9 asf.

I love this Phone but the Android under the Fire OS is old. :( But i really like it. It s the first Smartphone that i identifiy with.

With a better Camera, better Speakers, yeah. I would have it as my Daily Driver and dont buy the Note 9.

I dont understand why Amazon not try it again. The Phone was awesome.
[Amazon Fire Phone] BigHulkDiesel:
I completely agree. I loved my Fire Phone. Amazon let us down my not continuing development. I always said, if they came out with a Fire Phone 2 tomorrow I would buy it.
[Amazon Fire Phone] laidbackcloud:
Amazon has to release another phone in order for alexa to achieve full success. They need it to reach a wider audience. The question is when will they release?
[Amazon Fire Phone] dini77:
Amazon isn't likely to try again. But I agree, the OS is more streamlined and practical than real Android. Also, much nicer than the newer Fire OS on tablets. But I got my phone a while after the initial release, when the most serious issues were fixed. The poor start played a big role in killing it. I feel very bad for the developers who created it.

I also have a Meego phone and Windows 10 Mobile. They likewise should have been continued. Very nice systems. I actually have all 3 charged and in use at the moment. Windows 10 Mobile I got only recently when it finally matured into a very nice OS. I was curious to try it before it disappears. Such a shame that we can't have this nice variety survive. App ecosystem rules the smartphone world. I have an iPad for apps and don't need everything on a phone. Maybe it will change with increased development of web apps, but I think it might be too late, if even mighty Microsoft and Amazon backed off.

Keep your Fire Phone. It is one of a kind, with its crazy set of cameras.

Hi

Pretty sure the AI is powering off my phone when it sits in idle for more than 3hrs... :confused: ...which is super odd..

[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] dgarcia:
Hi, thanks for your tutorial, sorry about my english, but i have a problem after tutorial. My x520 is freezing and restating, on the unlock screen, and red light is blink.

Do you have any idea what can i do?

Thanks and sorry about my english!
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Forthe55:
Wonderful guide.

I followed it to the T. But i am back to the same problem because of which i was here. The phone freezes on the unlock screen and reboots. I had a locked bootloader to start with, with no developer options selected, and my phone started freezing. Reset it from stock recovery and since then, no matter which Rom i flash thru QFIL, always i get stuck at or before login screen, sometimes even at language selection screen. The phone just freezes and reboots.

Any help appreciated.

TIA
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] PojntFX:
Hey,

are you able to see the LeEco pre-boot screen ("I'm getting smarter everyday" etc.) or are you able to access the recovery? If not, have you tried starting from the "Red Light Brick" section (red blinking light means that the battery is deeply discharged)?
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] PojntFX:
Hey,

thanks for reading the guide. Sadly, I do not know what might be causing this problem - could you try to access the logs of the device to get further diagnostic info? Probably https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/logcat or https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2882253/how-do-i-get-the-logfile-from-an-android-device#2888222 could be helpful, but I don't know if ADB logging is possible before enabling USB debugging in the developer settings. It is of course also possible that the modem is responsible for the crash - probably disabling Wifi etc. could help here (had this problem once on a Xiaomi Redmi Note 3).
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Forthe55:
Thanks again for guiding. I somehow miraculously managed to unlock the bootloader and enable adb. What i did was while flashing the minimalist indian rom again, failed half way ( rather at 25%), because of low battery. But surprisingly i managed to start the phone and this time it didnt ask for google verification, nor it had to be connected to net. immediately enabled developer options and oem unlock and usb debugging before it hung/froze again. This way i managed to get past the hurdle and flashed twrp recovery and lineage os as described here.

but Alas, the problem persists, the lineage rom managed to get to the lineage icon screen and as soon as the bottom button light goes up, it hangs.

Tried some other roms like ASOP (Official), lineage (Official), but these didnt see anything but LeEco boot screen.

i has been able to extract the Log file from twrp , but its so jumbled, cant understand anything. I feel that the internal flash storage may be at fault, but cant confirm unless i can parse the logfile.

Hoping someone can help me unbrick this phone. I can upload the log file if anyone is will to read/parse it.
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] PojntFX:
First of all, sorry for the late reply - I've been quite busy. Feel free to share the log file, that could be quite useful! If the internal storage is the problem, that could be hard to fix - but let's at least try it ;)
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Forthe55:
I will upload the log files which i was able to get hold on through twrp file browser, once i get back to my laptop. Meanwhile i have searched the net and i found a lot many people with similar problem of system freezing in sone other leeco devices also without any clear-cut solution. One guy was able to fix it by deleting Google playstore data and cache (i cant reach to settings-> apps->playstore, as the device seems to freeze at or before that point. I suspect it has to do with some software conflict leading to freezing/hanging.

Lets see. TIA

Can I root the x526 without a pc..can u suggest any apps???
[LeEco Le 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dahcar:
I felt so close this time. But still didn't worked. First I tried adb, so: oem unlock ect. Still locked can't unlock and can't disk data partition or something fails. Your methode via download felt so close but I got error. Download fail, sahara fail, Fail:QSaharaServer Fail:Procesfail. Tried everything but lots of dead ends. :(

Also I may have a different custom boot. But can't connect because it needs google verification and network. But there is somehow no network or wifi. (Maybe WAPI not installed?) But so that means I cant proceed anyhow.

My leeco x522 also doesn't have SD-card so it other options are pretty impossible.

What should I do??

---------- Post added at 02:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:35 AM ----------

Wow that lucky how you got past that google verification. I'm here still stuck :( I am wondering if there was a way to force to device to edit storage or force some custom boot.

I think the same. Storage at fault. My whole phone bricked because I tried playing a video via camera. Haha what a mess. What should I do.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] memocatcher:
I was trying HAVOC OS and wanted to go back to Oxygen Os 5.1.11, so I booted into twrp, wiped system data and dalvik cache and installed the 5.1.11 flashable zip. After that I also reinstalled the twrp 3.2.3.0 installer zip and rebooted recovery to flash magisk. But it didn´t ask me for a password, only if I want to allow modifications, and when I enter twrp, all my data is encrypted in numbers and letters. Anyone can help?

This has been the "major" story since 5.1.11 landed !

.

The latest custom roms have august patch and oxygen is "STILL" on july !

You ( like many, many other poor soles ) are hosed... . . . But twrp will save you.

.

I hope you have a backup of your stuff off of your phone's sdcard area.

Go get the un-official twrp which has fixed "mtp" here.

https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-2-0-touch-recovery-t3813317

( buy joe a cup of coffee ? )

You have to fastboot boot recovery,

format data ( sorry, wipe does not fix it... ),

reboot fastboot again,

[ the big step ] fastboot boot recovery again,

adb push new oxygenOS from your pc / mac,

and then flash it.

You are now back to square one and working.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] memocatcher:
thanks man. Did everything until the last step. What file do I have to push? A flashable zip file of OOS? Is the command then "adb sideload xx file"?
