Will P3droid OC kernels work on Droid 2?

I thought it had a profile feature. I must be having a senior moment. :)

Yeah, I like the profile features quite a bit, but I'm running stock on my D1 at the moment (kernel on CM, not stock ROM, rooted or otherwise. ;)) so I don't really have to worry about the battery dipping too low. Man but this thing is fast stock now.
 
I could very well have just overlooked it, but I think the only thing I saw was the option to slow down when the screen was off--but that's only ONE of the profiles I have set up with setCPU. :/

I wish I were more dev savvy, I'd totally love to help with this stuff.

This is pure speculation as I just have an OG Droid, but this DOES work with my Droid so I don't see why it wouldn't work with an X.

Download the MO (Milestone Overclock) application from the market and use that to overclock with. After setting your frequencies and voltages, you can then fire up SetCPU and enable your profiles just as you normally would. In fact, on my Droid I can manually load the overclock.ko module at startup and then load the frequencies and voltages from the same script and bypass using any app to overclock with at all. The advantage of this is I am able to set the frequency and voltage for each slot this way which is completely independent of the kernel. Meaning. It doesn't matter what the max frequency is or what frequencies for each slot are compiled with the kernel. I don't know, but would it be possible to add the extra slots this way? I have no idea. There is a thread in the Cyanogen section here and in the Bugless Beast section with more explanations on how to do this.

The QuickClock overclocking app MIGHT help you as well but I haven't used that app yet as it doesn't support the kernel that I'm currently using. There might be a way from that app to script the process as well, therefore maybe allowing you to add extra slots. Again though I am just letting you know how this can be done on a Droid so if the thing you heard about it being dangerous to add extra slots on the X is true you might not want to try. I remember back in the day though when the rumor was floating around about it being possibly dangerous to use 7 slots on the OG Droid and we see how much truth was in that rumor :)
 
I did notice that I could use Jrummy's OC at the same time as setCPU, so it doesn't surprise me that I can use others too. I'll probably get on freenode and xda's irc's under the droid dev channels soon and ask around to find someone willing to experiment a bit with this idea...

yea jrummys overclock is sikk.

there are tons of profiles in it, just go to
CPU Frequency Scaling(top)> Profiles (at the bottom of the page)


i dont bother with setcpu when jrummys does it all and looks dead sexy while doing it :P
