Does anyone know how to make the Droid X go over 1.3 ghz? My quadrant score 2025. I want it as fast as possible.
By the way I know the side affects.

Pshhht! Lucky. Ok now what is a logical thing I could do? Like does having 2 overclocking apps make it faster instead of one? Or should I get a third?

no however if you have advance task manager make sure no unnecessary processes are running so that quadrant can use as much ram/etc as possible, also i found underVOLTing and overCLOCKing it rendered some of the graphics blank making them load "faster" giving it a higher reading, also if ur on liberty 1.5 using the STAGEFRIGHT hack works too

I have the gingerbread link so I really cant get back on liberty like I want to for some gay reason. Why cant users running 2.3.3 get liberty to work?
And plus really want to use your sense theme for it.

Yeah I wish liberty had an option for skins like sense does.
While I'm not sure I get the point in this...
Droid Overclock in the market from Jrummy allows you to set custom frequencies. I have a profile set up for Max performance, at 1.45 ghz. When it came out, there was talk of people going up to 2 ghz if I remember correctly or it could have been a hoax, never looked into it. Definitely Risky, but you did say you already knew that, so don't come crying to back to the forums if you break something.
Stagefright.
It is not just a liberty mod, its a Build Prop mod that is easily edited in the liberty toolbox, you could always just edit the Build.prop yourself. I looked into this a while back with all the quadrant score hype and this removes the ability of the phone to play back video recorded from the device's camera or at least it used to, may have been fixed?.
Not 100% on this one, but I believe Stagefright is just false inflation of quadrant score, not really a performance increase; someone else feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
Do you know were I could try the app out before buy it?
amazon
The amazon app market is the only place with "try before you buy" that I know of, but its in a web browser. Not really on the device, so would let you see features but not actually alter clock. Plus im not sure if that app is in the amazon market.

keeeeep gooiiingggg........do you have droid overclock?????
Honestly Quadrant scores are meaningless... If your phone is fast enough for you then you have it. Personally I see no reason to overclock Droid X or any other phone for that reason. A few hundred Mhz isn't going to change much in real world performance. Also you sacrifice battery life when you overclock.
Agreed on Quadrant Scores, however, many people are running higher frequencies with either stock or lower voltage, but doubt anyone is at 1.3ghz or higher without increasing voltage.
Also, with SetCpu, you can set up profiles to keep stock battery life with higher frequencies.

In Jrummys overclock app (Droid x Overclock) , there is the option to go up to 1.45 ghz. (To use the higher settings, go to the settings, then scroll down to "Scaling Frequency Preset" and select it. then go to set scaling frequencies, and select your voltage and speed. best of luck.
I got liberty 2.0.1 installed with stagefight on and my quadrant score is 2500+ with stage fright off my score was 1300 thats with a 1.2 overclock. Btw which is insanely stable compared to Liberty 1.5. For me atleast.
If you really want to see where your phone can run, buy quick clock advanced.from the market. It will test your phone for you to determine how low a voltage and how high a clock speed you can safely run. you can then load presets such as battery saver, balanced, or high speed. If you're on the Gb leak, it will not persist at boot, however

I got an EVO myself and managed to overclock it to 1.267GHz. We could probably go even higher, but that requires more extensive changes. Here are the changed source files: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36553/supersonic_oc-uv.tar.gz
It also includes an undervolt courtesy of pershoot (a whole 0.1V lower when idle, which should help battery drain a lot!). Here is a test update.zip: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36553/supersonic_oc-uv_signed.zip (working WiFi). Make sure to do a nandroid backup first!
Sensors/camera do not currently work in this kernel because the source is not yet complete.
There is an overvolt on the highest frequencies. It should not cause any issues. Thanks to toastcfh for his source, Herver for creating the first booting overclocked kernel on the EVO, all the kernel devs in the N1 community, especially pershoot and kmobs, richardtrip from the Desire community, koush for anykernel updater, and all who helped to root the EVO. Enjoy!
Update 6/15: Fixed 950mV undervolt. Raised voltages from 1228800 above to improve stability. Source files updated and update.zip uploaded.
old said:
I posted these in an earlier thread, but I think I should bring this to everyone's attention. Here are some simple patches that will overclock the Evo up to 1.267GHz (though by any means it's not guaranteed to get that high!):
Edit: please don't flash the below update.zip, as it doesn't seem to boot. Devs, the patches are still below, and a zimage is in the anykernel update zip.
Update: I compiled it myself. Here is an update.zip: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36553/update-oc_signed.zip. This uses toastcfh's sources, Koush's excellent anykernel updater and a config.gz pulled from a stock Supersonic. If this doesn't boot, no damage will be done to your phone. Just reboot into recovery and reinstall your ROM. You can test overclocking by grabbing SetCPU from my sig or changing the cpufreq values if you know how. Once we get this working, I will create an undervolted version for battery savings. I'd get an Evo, but it's sold out everywhere T_T
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36553/supersonic_oc.zip
cpufreq.c and acpuclock-scorpion.c are in arch/arm/mach-msm, and supersonic_defconfig is just the config. I don't have an Evo, so I can't test these out, but these should work with the source files toastcfh posted earlier: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=686240.
Undervolting can be achieved simply by adjusting the voltages (in mV) in the acpu_freq_tbl table in acpuclock-scorpoion.c. For those not familiar with his work, you can see pershoot's safe (but lower) voltages for the N1 here: http://github.com/pershoot/nexus-kernel/blob/master/acpuclock-scorpion.c. If you want to overvolt or go under 1000mV, you have to make one further adjustment to the voltage regulator in board-supersonic.c.
Note that the N1 and the Evo are completely different devices (with similar processors), so what may work for the N1 may not work for the Evo.

I don't recommend overclocking, the devices already can run warm at current settings.
But then again, you are entitled to do as you wish.
Options better than overclocking are to remove the Sprint bloatware and strip down parts of Sense, this speeds things up alot by removing excess background applications.
Well it ain't too bad, my Droid at 1 ghz(550 stock) runs great.
So this should be good too.
I like overclocking as much as the next geek, but on the Evo... WHY?
This phone has yet to respond anything slower than instantly to my input and I expect a difference of .26 ghz would not make it so it could read my thoughts.
Undervolting, on the other hand, could help with the abysmal battery life...

Some people love to run benchmarks. Try to improve on them over and over. Others like the feeling of just going faster. Also some apps or some in the future might require a faster running phone. What better way to achieve that (other then buying a new phone) then OC.
Also in the future, are you not gunna buy a 1.5ghz processor phone running 2.1 because a 1ghz processor can already do it? OC has many benefits, just not to everyone, most because they dont understand the consequences or benefits.
My htc hero clocked to 768mhz can run 2.1 and everything near instant. Still doesnt keep be from wanting a 1ghz or higher.
Also one more thing, 2.2 will be out soon. With full flash support, i have a feeling its going to require a lot of CPU. An OC Evo would probably run many things from 2.2 a lot easier.
Well, I agree with the benchmarking comments but on the subject of Froyo... Froyo is designed to be even faster on equivalent hardware than 2.1... and 2.1 on my Evo is smooth as silk. And the Evo handles most Flash I can throw at it, so I'm not sure. I have however noticed a small performance difference with live wallpaper running, so maybe OCing will clear that up a bit.

I'm not trying to start an argument at all but you have to think broader mathematically. If the processor runs at 1000Mhz or 999mhz (In the case of my N1) a .267 increase is 267mhz, a 26.7% increase in computational performance... That's pretty raw especially in cellphone terms, that have no way to vent or displace that kind of heat.
Has anyone noticed how much hotter the kickstand gets? I bet you that it's attached to something the cpu is connected to. $5 bucks says we will see KICKSTAND HEATSINK + FAN MOD 2GHZ OC! LOL

need to follow the directions in the first post. the .c files need to be loaded into the kernel source (right now just have toast's soruce) and the kernel has to be compiled with them.
if somebody wants to compile up a kernel with these, we could start testing. if i get some free time i'll help out here and compile a kernel but somebody else will prob beat me to it!
please someone let us know how this works out for your evo 4g... benchmark, test results... anything to show better/worse performance, whether your got ALOT warmer, or just a lil, etc.. ne information would be greatly appreciated it, i'm not a 100% noob, i just know how to follow instructions very well, doesn't mean i understand everything that's going on, just the basic concept of what i want. thank you in advance.

1500 isn't necessary. In fact, you're risking frying your phone! 1200 is the median for most.
Common Sense is learned..........
do 1500 but when u processor will be overheat, your phone gonna restart.
thats all....I don't remember no one in my life who broke the PHONE because overclocking.
For me 1400 best...because 1500 not stable for "heavy congestion."

It happens often. Why do you think is called "OVERclocking"? OEM's set specific numbers on their kernels for a reason. Besides the numbers themselves and meaningless quadrant scores, you'll probably not notice any difference between 1200 or 1400

yes I had my other G2x set to 1500 and the battery life was better for me...I prolly set it to 1400 to see how things go. I had to get a new G2x because say someone set me a text msg saying "hey" i would get 200-400 of them and then one day I restarted it and it go to the point where it said LG with the blue bar under it then it would restart...why I have no clue but I would like to figure out why before I have to send it back because I have it rooted and would like to unroot it before sending it back. I also have pictures on the phone that I don't really want to lose so if anyone could help me with that that would be great also.
nobody is really going to answer his question? If you are trying to change the speed either download a program called pimp-my-cpu or setcpu. Both of those will give you full access to do what ever u please to your phones processors. Hope this helps!
there is a place in the setting that you can do it at i just don't remember where to find it at.

All CPU's are different. Some phones will have no problem running at 1.6ghz. Some will. It's a trial and error thing.
If you are worried, start conservative and work your way up.
would you say that overclocking your phone is worth it? i know that it can really improve the performance of the phone... but it greatly decreases the battery life... and vice versa u can lower it and increase bat life n lower performance. im looking at opinions also thanks for the reply!!

I personally have the Infusion kernel running on my phone, which allows me to OC my device, but I don't want to. I've come across no normal instance when I've found that I needed the extra power. I mainly wanted it so that I could undervolt (UV) which improves battery life.
Adding a custom ROM and also adding voodoo (most ROM's have voodoo) will increase the performance of your phone.
I'm running Infusion 2.0 on Infused 1.5.3 right now (waiting for GB HDMI capabilities...thanks AT&T) and I'm loving it.

Mikey passed out 1-2 MIUI builds as a proof of concept on IRC a while back, but it took the existing problems with CM7 (MIUI is layered over CM7) and added new ones, so it's on hold until more of the issues with base CM7 get fixed.

There's no way you took your device to 1.8 - our devices can't go past 1.6 without overclocking the system bus, and the system bus does NOT like to overclock. The best anyone has done was around 1664 MHz and it was unstable as hell for a lot of people.
Some versions of Infusion reported operating at 1.8, but that's because bedwa made some mistakes in his PLL calculations - he thought those settings would run the CPU at 1.8 but they actually ran it at around 1.55

.......infuse.....Infused....infusion.........
My max is 1664 and it locks up sometimes so i backed it down to 1456. Is there a quick guide to use voltage control

If your on froyo use the a kernel its more stable buddy. What exactly do you need to know?
.......infuse.....Infused....infusion.........
Im running infused 1.6.0 w/ core B kernel. I read people adjusting certain areas to make it more stable and increase speed and battery...

Howdy folks. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thinking about overclocking but have not done it. What are the benefits / rewards?
Is there an app or program i can to do this?
And what is a safe range?
Thanks in advance!

Benefits : Faster phone, smoother ui
Cons: Phone may heat up if overclock is set too high
For this phone 1500 is the highest, safest number we can get to right now. I would suggest setCPU, which you can find on XDA for free. (search setCPU)
You'll need a new kernel first, the stock one doesn't support oc. Go with Faux's assuming you're running a rom compatible with it (and most are).
After that, download Pimp My CPU from the market and you're good to go.

To be honest with you, I notice hardly, if any, real-world phone speed increase when I overclock...barring benchmark numbers. I'm not really sure why that's the case for me, and why for some others it's such an extremely obvious difference (or so they claim). Perhaps I'm not running the same cpu intensive apps that they run. But for general, day to day, running of my phone, it's just not worth it for me due to the battery cost.
So I would love to hear from some of you where "precisely" do you see such a marked improvement on the speed of your phone?
Well, first off, make sure you have a custom Recovery installed... Then find a ROM you'd like, and then, flash a custom OC Kernel..
You'll need an app such as SetCPU to control the overclock.

Are you using the stock launcher? It's alot smoother with the stock launcher if OCed to 1500, although i don't notice a difference from 800 to 1500 on launcher pro.
I've recently tried the Quadrant Standard Benchmark and noticed that my phone's score is severely lower than that of other reviewer's benchmarks? I usually score between 960-1060. Any Idea why I'm not getting into the 1100s? Even my brother's Infuse reached 1300.
Quadrant scores necessarily don't mean squat. But just out of curiosity, what have you done to your phone? Are you running the stock shipped ROM?

I've just rooted it. Bricked it. Used the ultimate Unbrick for Rogers Infuse 4g. Now here I am. One thing I've thought of is space since I have lots of games but eve when I removed almost all of my downloaded Apps. The score hardly improved. I'm wondering whether for those games(mainly Gameloft) where they require a larger download to fully install, when you uninstall those games are the rest of the files from the extra download still on ur phone taking up space?

To be honest, if you're not noticing any lag then all should be fine. I recommend running a custom ROM. pretty much all the infuse roms convert your system to ext4 which is much faster than stock. If you need help with anything don't hesitate to ask, but in the right forum

Apps don't influence ur score much. These scores are based on how ur CPU, GPU and memory works, not based on how apps work.
Repeat the quadrant a couple times in a row. First run always seems to give lower values. After 1-2 runs, take average of next 2-3 and you will get the proper score.
Reboot your phone, give it some time to settle, and then run quadrant.
But like pointed above, stock ROMs give lower scores than custom mainly cos of faster file system. Plus, I enabled GPU based graphics by updating my build.xml and am getting about 1800 with my clock set at max 800.

apps running in the background can consume resources and affect the score. also rogers roms tend to score lower. it was that way on the captivate too. btw what's a build.xml? do you mean build.prop?
and to the op your score is in line with what you can expect. if you dont have any specific issues i wouldnt worry about it. quadrant is soo sensitive to atleast 2 areas (encoding/decoding media and file system reads) but not others that you can take an infuse to 4200 but it isnt gonna do too much that it didnt do before.

They really don't!! Neither does Antutu or Linpack.. Gives you a different number every time LOL!! But Definitely look at some of the other roms out there! The few dev's we have left need all the support we can give them!! THANKS INFUSE DEV's!!!!
