Hi! I'm wondering if it is possible to set the cpu clock for the Motorola defy at 800 mhz instead of either 600 or 1000 mhz. I really dont want to overclock since it seems to create heat and battery drainage.
Hi,
You will need to have an unlocked bootloader, a custom recovery.... Then a custom kernel that supports CPU speed changes, and flash if from recovery.
Everything can be found in your device section, here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/motorola-defy
general has lots of information and guides. Q&A is where to find answers, or post questions. And development section will have roms and kernels that can be flashed.
Good luck!
I already have a custom ROM installed (CM 7.2). but in the cpu settings there is no option for setting the cpu to device default, which is 800 mhz. The only clock speeds I have available are 300,600 and 1000 mhz.
Then you need to ask for help in the rom thread. But it sounds like you answered your own question already. If that's all it lists, I'm sure that's your only options.

I found a link explaining how to overclock motorola milestone phone on the fly without any reeboot or flashing a custom overclocked kernel. This information might be useful for overclocking galaxy 3 mobiles and I think this would be a better way of overcloking, since it doesnot require flashing a separate overcloked kernel.

Since our phone is using s5p6442 cpu,there are some slight changes that has to be done. I tried and compared the guide with our froyo kernel source released by samsung.
I found the frequency table for our cpu to be present in
arch/arm/plat-s5p64xx/s5p6442-dvfs.c
But i couldnt find which function manipulates the frequency tables present here,I'm not a developer so I'm posting what i know here, Hoping some developer takes this information and implementes it.
downloading the source codes now....wonder if i can figure out anything~im just a noob

I have the above recovery installed, and previously had the kernel installed as well until I put on cyanogen mod 7.20130201 for the LG E720. CM7 is great; this is my first foray into modding my phone and it's grand. However, the CPU clock is maxed out at the stock frequency of 600 Mhz. I don't want to undo all my progress, so I have to ask, will the kernel above work with CM7?
Thank you.
Hey Everyone I Don`t have a depth knowledge about Android ..Just I want to know I want TO know whether installing Cynogenmod ROM will Overclocked My Mobile ??
(ie) 600 Mhz to some Mhz...
plz tell me anyone !!!
Nope it wont

Nope Bro it wont...By default the processor speed is 600 mhz but u can increase it in the settings...
First u have to enable Developer options i.e., Settings-->About Phone-->Tap BUILD NUMBER rapidly(Around 10 times)...
Now to check ur processor speed or to increase it Go to Settings-->Performance-->Just tap OK-->Processor :good:

prabhuinbar is right in what he says but not all the Roms as standard here will have the ability of overclocking your processor, I think mainly the cm11 (kitkat) roms have it included or the developers have an extra update.zip that when flashed can OC. Check out the ROMS section, have a read of what is and isn't included. They are all quite easy to install, backup phone, wipe, install new rom, install oc update.zip if needed. Then as above what prabhuinbar said.
It depends from ROM.
In some ROMs you won't be able to overclock until you flash custom kernel that supports overclocking.
And some ROMs/custom kernels can have different overclocking profiles(in some you can clock to 700Mhz in others it's possible to 900Mhz).
Basically overclocking is sometimes good but my my personal experience it may cause battery drain,random reboots;in some cases it can burn NAND,not happend to me.
Hello Androiders,
I'm not sure if this makes complete sense but is there a way we can modify an existing kernel from an ASOP based ROM to support CPU overclock?
There's a ROM I use for my Xperia Acro S which lets me overclock to only 1.5 Ghz using the Mokee kernel in the flash file.
But there are other ASOP based ROM for my device which support upto 1.89 Ghz overclocking. Please let me know if there is a way to modify the existing kernel to support higher CPU clock speeds.
I searched Google and XDA but couldn't find any tutorial or discussion about this, please suggest how this can be accomplished!
LOVE and PEACE,
Syed
Hi Everybody,
I'm lucky to have a PMP7280C 3G QUAD Tablet, because it's price/performance(value) is very good. Quad core at 1,2 GHz with 1 G ram. WARNING: It is freaking lack of rom customization: Hard to be rooted, have ever not found a custom rom or an overclock option. Ive managed at last to root it with the vroot method. BUT, I cannot overclock it (It would bear it) There are no custom roms, even not Cyanogen. My Android knowledge level is maximum at a semi power user or less so I cannot edit kernel and things like that. If there is a description, how to install a rom or recovery mode, I can do it. I have searched for descriptions such as, but haven't find one. I'm 99% sure, that this factory kernel does not support overclock. But where is a kernel does for this cpu? It is MT8389 but as I see it's equal to MT6589 (in the instruction sets and other hardware specs except clock speed so tuning is the same might be).
Please if anyone can help to find a working kernel or custom rom for this device, let me know. This hardware could be much better if it could be overclocked or customized in the rom. Factory rom is old and has lot of useless apps and feats.
Thank You
