I am Using the DX/D2 overclock app and have it set to do stock with low voltage and I have to same my battery life has been way better, the only concern I have is if I am doing any damage to my phone or battery with those settings.
 
Nope, as long as you are not getting Force Closes or rebooting, then you are good to go. :)

FYI, I'm running at stock speed using ultra low voltage with no problems.
 
Same for me. 1.3 at VLV seems to work great, and battery life is amazing :)

This is with light use (couple calls a day, check email, update apps):

Colchiro, you must be using a custom set profile for your overclocking/underclocking, since the preset ones don't have 300mhz as the minimum setting. Can you share with us your settings please? :)

Also, what is VLV? I only know of ULV, LV, MV and HV. :o
 
The only damage you can do to your phone is overheat. That's why there is a temp display on the widget. So far, I have had no temp problems running a stable 1.35 ghz at medium voltage.
 
The previous update made my X get stuck in boot also. I finally factory reset. I had some glitches that I've been contemplating resetting anyway, so I went ahead and did it. Have Titanium backup, although I hadn't backed up for almost a month, but still most everything was backed up close enough. I haven't reinstalled the DX/D2 OC program yet as it seems others are still having stability issues even with the newest update.

VLV = Brain fart when I should have said ULV. ;)

Just using the standard 1300/1350 ULV setting.
 
New to overclocking. Set at medium voltage @ 1.3. What do i set the minimum cpu freq. scaling?

Lowest possible. You want it to run slow at idle to conserve battery, just set the governor to On Demand and the CPU will ramp up speed to meet the demands of what you are doing.
 
If you're not using medium or higher, you shouldn't have to worry about the temp.

ULV @ 1.30 or 1.35 works fine for me.

i just turtle up at this speed. 1.15 works, but nothing better (in LV i could run 1.2, but it didnt help with any performance)

any other boot settings, etc??

Im still learning the DX coming from the D1. I rooted this one the easy way.. Z4root. I downloaded this overclock app but in the case of the D1 I had to have a different kernal to overclock. I don't ever see anyone on the DX forums reference Kernals. Again, all I did was root using Z4 so I haven't done anything more than that. I'm not able to set this app to more than 1000 (stock). What else do I have to do to get the higher speeds? Im guessing I'll have to install a rom but not sure.
 
You need to have SetCPU app installed to OC, tjreishus.

I use the DX/D2 overclocker and don't need Set CPU to overclock. I have Set CPU from before and use it for some profiles but the basic four speeds I set using the DX/D2 app is 300000 at 23; 600000 at 33; 900000 at 52 and 1225000 at 65. My X won't handle anything faster at any voltage without either turtling or rebooting.

You can't change the kernal on the X yet like I could with my D1 where I was running the LiQuid 1.6 and Slayher's kernal at 1.2.
