Droid X overclocking on Droid 2

after you enter this command

# insmod /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko
(you only have to enter it once even after a reboot).

go into root explorer (the easiest way)
click system folder
xbin folder
find the setscaling100.sh file.
Click mount r/o at very top of screen
then long press set scaling100.sh

u should get an options menu, scroll down to OPEN in TEXT EDITOR

you can then edit that script. When u done click save, then click on it an execute.
 
this is how mine look

echo 56 > /proc/overclock/max_vsel
echo 1200000 > /proc/overclock/max_rate
echo 1 300000000 27 > /proc/overclock/mpu_opps
echo 2 700000000 38 > /proc/overclock/mpu_opps
echo 3 1000000000 50 > /proc/overclock/mpu_opps
echo 4 1200000000 56 > /proc/overclock/mpu_opps
echo 0 1200000 > /proc/overclock/freq_table
echo 1 1000000 > /proc/overclock/freq_table
echo 2 700000 > /proc/overclock/freq_table
echo 3 300000 > /proc/overclock/freq_table __________________
 
awesome, thanks so much! :) I'll run a stress test as well with SetCPU using those values as a benchmark and try to post some results here in a while... I'm assuming we might have to individually adjust voltages a tad to get the best results/phone?
 
just a note

do not modify the setscaling that is the default, only modify the setscaling100
setscaling is to get u back to default settings.

SUCCESS!!! =) starting the stress test now, but everything seems to be stable at the moment... =)
Thanks a ton for the help!

Droid 2 Overclock Results (over the last 6 hours)

First things first, I don't know if it's necessary for me to post any anti-liability stuff, but hey, why not... lol

I am not liable for any damage you may cause to your phone should you try to re-create my test results... I'm by NO MEANS any kind of an expert at this stuff, just a regular guy who likes to play around with his phone... I'm simply posting this to share my results, and possibly help out some of the guys who haven't had time to test yet... basically just providing food-for-thought for everyone, nothing more =)

I've been playing with my phone for about 6 hours or so now, and this is what I can gather...

note: Stock Values per Setscaling.sh included with download:

300/27
600/38

800/50

1000/56



  • 1300 appears to be rock solid near as I can tell... I ran it for about a couple hours or so with the following values:
300/27
700/38
1000/50
1300/60


  • 1400 seems like it would be difficult to achieve... I tried some different combinations of voltages (nothing over 68), but couldn't get my phone to stay alive for more than 5 minutes before it would freeze and reboot. I had the same effect all the way down to 1300 where I'm at atm, the only difference being that the phone would stay alive just a little longer each time I bumped the processor down from 1400.
That being said, I've been at 1300 for over a couple hours as of now, and it seems stable. No reboots, no hang ups, battery life seems normal (if not a little better), and I've yet to see a temp over 105, so I'm sticking with the values I've listed above for the time being to see how it holds out through the day.

-side note: I'm running the Fission 1.1 ROM flashed over 1.0 as of yesterday... not 100% sure that this has made a difference in my testing, but I would guess it's probably had something to do with my outcomes.

Here's some screens from my linpack and quadrant scores at 1000 (top row-taken consecutively) and 1300 (bottom row-taken over a 2 hour period) to give you guys a little teaser =) I used SetCPU to knock the processor back to 1000 just long enough to get the stock photos

COMBO.jpg


top row: linpack - 13.565, 13.977, 14.335 quadrant - 1361, 1443, 1482
bottom row: linpack - 18.771, 19.206, 19.25 quadrant - 1799, 1839, 1864


hopefully this info ends up being helpful in some way, or at least sparks some food-for-thought... if anyone has any suggestions on what I could do/change to see some better results, I would love to hear them!

Also, a WORLD of thanks to the guys who made this possible! Thanks so much for bringing us Droid2 users OC capabilities! Hopefully some custom kernels wont be too far behind ;)

Last night I was running 1300 stable. That was the highest I went though. Others were running 1400 stable.

Droid 2 Overclock(Kernel Module+Instructions) - Android Forums

* Props to Super_Six_Two and WalCs for helping me get the memory address' and testing the module out for the D2*

Before continuing on please check out the following links, and learn from what the DX guys have discovered:

[How-To] Overclock your Droid X - Android Forums

[How-to] Overclock that survives a reboot - Android Forums




Here it is:

Milestone Overclock Module 1.2t (nadlabak's patch) w/ Memory Locations for Droid2 2.2 Added by FreeWELL

Credits:
Tiago Sousa aka Mirage: for The Milestone Overclock Project
nadlabak: for patching in Froyo/2.2 Support
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 the Droid X. 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/droid2_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


Anyone try it yet? I'm on the fence as my battery life is bad enough and i really dont have any problems with my speeds...
 
A lot of people are over clocking already. I'm at 1.3Ghz stable. People last night in the fission irc chat were running 1.4Ghz stable.
