[APPS] Droid X/2 Overclock App - Easy & Noob friendly ;)

aefd6612-a58d-3544.jpg


Works great for me, good speed and life with no reboots. You need to test it thoroughly on your machine before you hit "set on boot," and always make a backup!

I should clarify that I'm on RubiX 1.9.5 over the OTA .340, and that I started at stock with the voltages and worked my way down.

I'll try it thank you. I'm not on a custom rom on official only reason I have root cuz I can stop annoying apps and free wifiz ;p

Tried it, but it didn't seem to change anything. Question why did you make 1, 300000 and change the temp didn't you make it go slower taking out the 5? As well as all the others you changed the voltage and put some lower cpu speeds.. Not really knowledged at this so help lol explain why you did what you did, and if someone else would share their setup for their droid x as well.

My setup I did was this
1.400000
22
2.600000
45
3.900000
55
4.1200000
62
--------
Testing right now.

For my lowest slot, I wanted the lowest frequency possible because that's what the system will use when idle. Low frequency handles lower VSEL which means longer batt life. The minimum I could take my X was 300, and the lowest stable VSEL I got on mine was 24. I never find that I needed to go faster than 1.2 GHz (even 900 is still pretty dang fast enough) and so I just filled in regular intervals between them at 600 and 900.

I don't think the appropriate voltages increase in a linear fashion with the frequencies, in truth. The "normal" VSEL for each frequency is listed in the help/about section. Still, I just filled them in as though they would, which is still below the ULV presets.

I'm on RubiX 1.9.5; its stock settings were 300-500-700-1 GHz with low VSELs. Using the governor function and profiles, the CPU only runs as fast as it needs; therefore it's beneficial to have your lowest slot as low as possible imo.

I am not an overclocking guru, just a user like yourself who wants a faster and longer-lasting Droid X. I'm very content with the way my settings work for me, but there may be more optimal ones for me and for you. Like I said, trial and error, start normal and gradually decrease, make a backup, and don't set on boot...doing so is a pretty big risk for boot-loops, and it's not that much of a chore to click it on each time you restart.

Thank you for your feedback to my question. I tested my setup like for 20mins and everything was great. I did click the start up on boot and restarted maybe 6 times with no problem. As well with extra stuff I tested and all is working well. So you still think I should incl start at boot?

Edit
Problem with density change. I changed to 200 and couldn't open up my phone dialer.

I'm very cautious, so I took about two weeks to settle on settings. Somehow time seems to draw out hidden problems.

Good luck :)

Thanks, I'll pray nothing will happen, as I do before anything stupid that I attempt. But my voltage has not change at all if not maybe lower it's staying at 30-33 sometimes 34. Only reason I wanted to try this was for psx emulator see if faster and it isn't lol... I can't really tell any difference after doing this atm, it does start faster. Are there any test I could do to maybe show me that it had changed?

Darn. I just created a thread in another section, before I found this. So I'll ask here. Ever I select a frequency, the phone reboots and the frequency is not set when it boots back up. No matter which frequency I set.

To you at top, did you use advance settings setup, and have you messed with an extra settings yet? Idk if I can help or not for I am not that knowledge able with it yet.

Question should I set everything back to default before an update? If so what are the default settings for some extra settings, because some didn't have one.

Waiting for an update for DX to fix random restarts. I uninstalled til can fix. After installing I can tell it did make phone faster but it crashed at times so no ty.

It seems like you're setting the frequency too high or the voltage too low for your machine. Almost all the problems with the app appear to be due to user error, tbh. Took me a fair amount of exploration until I found good settings.

You saw my settings, but after I set then I found out about the profile setups so used that instead. Screen on ran 1.2ghz priority default 50. And screen off priority 10 running 400mhz. And last one, temp if at 39 slow down to 800mhz and priority 45. I set the advance settings back to default. And ran on demand 1.2ghz. It never once hit high voltage or temperature stayed at 23-35 and rarely 38 but even before I sometimes hit 40.

Dmfa/anyone, I must ask if you every had any problems, and if not please give me a full list of your settings not only advance ones but scaling and profiles as well. I always had mine running 1.2ghz with profiles on demand. And just wondering if that could make it freeze&restart. I do miss the speed is why I'm willing to try again.

Okay...

Simple question, and forgive it being a n00b one...

How come Android devices, like the G2, overclock to 15GHz and score Linpacks in the 50 ranges and quadrants of 20,000+ and the Droid X I cannot overclock beyond 13.5 GHz, without crashing and score Linpacks of 18 and Quadrants of 17000+?

Isn't the Droid X's processor faster than the G2, stock?

Also, when I use Set CPU, it will not allow me to over clock beyond the 1000 GHz. That's already the stock performance.

Any ideas?
