Droid X 2.2 Overclock (Kernel Module w/Instructions) - Android Forums

 

[pc747]

Freewell from Android forums posted this tutorial, now this is for the DROID X, ima play and see if I can do it on the droid 2.

Milestone Overclock Module 1.2t (nadlabak's patch) w/ Memory Locations for DroidX 2.2 Added by FreeWELL

FreeWELL: for finding DroidX 2.2 memory locations/module compilation

Notes:

I'm trying to keep this as close as possible to the way it was done on 2.1. For me, 2.2 seems to need a little more voltage to be stable than it was under 2.1. I've included two versions of setscaling.sh to start from.

setscaling.sh is set to stock voltages/clock speed

setscaling100.sh is set to stock voltages w/100mhz bump accross the board to 400/700/900/1100 (This appears to be stable for me, and is the baseline for my testing/tuning)



Install Instructions

adb/terminal:
$ su
# cd /sdcard/extracted/droidx_22_oc (or wherever you extracted the files to)
# mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mcblk1p21 /system
# cp overclock.ko /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko
# cp setscaling.sh /system/xbin/setscaling.sh
# chmod 644 /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko
# chmod 755 /system/xbin/setscaling.sh

<optional(only do after thoroughly testing what works for your DroidX in setscaling.sh)>
# cp install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
# chmod 755 /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
</optional>

# mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mcblk1p21 /system


Run Instructions

adb/terminal:

$ su
# insmod /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko
# setscaling.sh

I just saw that, very cool! if they can do it we most likely can, the only difference may be the memory locations. I wish I could play around with this now, but I'm on a business trip and can't risk roasting my phone.

Only 1.1Ghz "stable", huh? What does that really mean?? Weren't people pushing the D1 to 1.2?

i get a reboot after this command:

$ su
# insmod /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko
# setscaling.sh

The CPUs are different so overclocking with the DX method most likely won't work with the D2. A different method or an edit method has to be discovered.

 

[pc747]

i figured how to execute it with root explorer but yeah it does not seem to be making the adjustments.

I don't really care about OC, 1ghz is fine imo, I do however care about undervolting. Anyone figure this out yet?

 

[pc747]

im taking a mental break lol........ i got it to execute and figured out how to edit it but when i go to execute its not changing on set cpu so im assuming something else may need to be done ......

droid 2

so when do u think that the droid 2 will be able to be overclocked by today?

 

[pc747]

its a matter of time someone will put a tutorial together. Just need more people to play around with it and someone will figure out what in the instructions needs to be modified to work on the d2.

 

[pc747]

finally figured out how to execute it but im getting reboots every time ....

I suggest those trying this make a nandroid back up first.

Maybe the file needs to be modified for the droid 2.

d2

so i guess still no luck on droid 2 ang i think is working on this also.

Yeah, I think this is the secret thing he says he is working on besides trying to get the universal bootloader working.
