http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827635
Can I do it to my S3 mini? Is it need to "only root" or "root+kernel"?
Sorry for bad English.

There is no kernel yet to overclock this phone.

If kernel is ready can I do it ? And is s3 mini gpu quad core?

It's a single core Mali-400MP GPU.

Strange, Wikipedia says it's quad core

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_III_Mini

Your getting specs confused with galaxy S3 that's quad core. S3 mini is dual core.

On wikipedia it says that its single core gpu, but thats wrong (?)

Yes that's right GPU is graphics display chip which is single core Mali-400. Processor chip is Dual Core.

check the resolution. The Higher it is, the lower fps and score but also have addittional effect and more detailed.

You wont have a dead processor unless you overvolt it which I dont think you would do anyways. By the time your processor is dead, you'd have long gotten a new phone. The most you could get is stability problems where there is not enough voltage to supply the processor and in that case your phone would just crash.
its like how on a computer if you overclock and you dont supply enough voltage to your processor, you receive a blue screen.
So is it safe to overclock to 1.4
Ghz?
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA Premium HD app
Yep, I had it at 1.4ghz for a long time with no problems. But now that I'm on beast mode kernel, I can't OC.
Some people have it at 1.8 GHz without problems
Sent from my not so Incredible S
Beastmode runs well at 2ghz actually on my phone
But I have it now to run at 1.2ghz

If you overclock your CPU too much without raising the voltage it may not even boot.

Thanks!!I'll try 1.4Ghz next time cuz I feel nothing change on 1.2ghz

check the online reviews
from what i know of motorola's with android they have had a few bugs to do with the wifi
They all say its a good phone but its firmware is a bit crap... but I can sort that lol bit of rooting and a nice new custom rom can solve it. What would you do?
Sent from my GT-I8190N using xda app-developers app
Idk about rooting stuff. I had Motorola phone before this one and it was pain in the ass to root. Sometimes rooting isn't even possible thanks to locked bootloader.
Also its CPU is x86 based so idk how much apps are supported.

so did a comparison of your choice
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=5033&idPhone2=3621
S3 mini has a higher pixel density
others than that S2 does look to have better specs
S2 also heats up pretty quickly
I had it for 2 weeks .not recommended. Miles away from samsung.

You need an overclock kernel. But there is no one yet I think.

From what I know it isn't safe to even attempt to overclock ST-Ericsson chipsets.

What if you overclock without raising voltage? Then it should be harmless (?)

This phone has U8500 processor. If board is U8500 then CPU is also U8500
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app
No, this phone has a processor U8420 NovaThor but on the ST-Ericsson does not have it. On the Internet, there are rumors that there is a newer version of U8500.
Even if you were to oc to 1200MHz it's still a lot OC itself really depends on the particular piece.
Any results plss

Wanna proof that CPU is U8500?
Cause i have one
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app
OK give it to us ....it is strange ...because in every tech data is mentioning u8420 only on ST E. site it don't exist.
If it is U8500 then OC kernel won't be a problem I think.
Is there any way we can check what processor we have in our phones?

So, Senior members and devalopers, go ahead and make some progress, find the way for overclocking our fameous S3 Mini

Regarding OP's request
Hey OP!
A OC kernel called CroPol (up to 1.2GHz) has been done and you can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-mini/development/custom-kernel-golden-t2890275
Enjoy!

Just a curious question. How come galaxy ace is in the legacy and low activity part? I mean shouldnt this device be not in this section? I am not complaining, just curious...

There are many hi-end devices available now...
SGA has an ARMv6 processor with 800 MHz processor, it does not have official support beyond GB.
Comparing it with today's devices, this device is waaaay too old...
