Droid X successfully overclocked

[dulaney22]

These lower voltages aren't stable. They appear to be for a while but when you tax things a but the random reboot occurs. That said, I'm running 1100@34 and the reboots aren't occurring enough to stop.

I usually run in 40 vsel. And that generally is very stable.

Try running Pandora in the background and do some web browsing or open up a game sim while it's still running.

I can't wait for flashing kernels and an all in one root package. I rooted yesterday and don't feel very confident using cmd prompts to overclock or for any of the other root stuff. All though I've rooted all 3 of my droid phones without a computer (x, d1, eris) but the d1 I used the computer to install the 2.0.1sbf. Anyone wanna help me get my x overclocked? Reason I don't use a computer is I have no internet.

I've had little to no success with overclocking to 1.2ghz. Either it becomes incredibly unstable, freezes, or just reboots. I've tried various vsel settings, but I can't get anything that feels stable. I'm not defeated just yet, going to keep playing with it.

I'd love to help. Do you have the android-sdk? or do you wish to use only the phone? either way. after you download the two files and extract both to root of sdcard:
EDIT [The two files:

(in Terminal Emulator or an adb shell)
su
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
cp /sdcard/overclock.ko /system/lib/modules
cp /sdcard/overclock.sh /system/bin

After this you need to go into the directories and change the permission" (atleast i did)

cd /system/lib/modules
chmod 644 overclock.ko
cd ../../bin
chmod 755 overclock.sh

and your done! I keep mine at this and it seems to work
overclock.sh 1170000 66
remember to redo it/get rid of it you have to:
busybox rmmod overclock

Hope i helped

Hi all,

I'm the developer of Milestone Overclock on which the overclock.ko you're using is based.

First of all I'd like to thank Elkay for his successful hack in porting the original overclock module over to Droid X. Also everyone's testing is very helpful in determining safe values to use. I'd like to incorporate this module into the Milestone Overclock app (I should really rename it by now...). There is an open ticket regarding this on the project's site, your feedback is most welcome:

Issue 36 - milestone-overclock - Modify Source to Support Droid X. - Project Hosting on Google Code

It would be very helpful if someone would reboot the phone, load the module through the app and type in Terminal Emulator / adb shell the following command (and then put the result here or screenshot it):

cat /proc/overclock/*

Thanks

I've used overclok.ko and setscaling.sh to undervolt my droid x, following the suggestions over on droidforums. Is there a way to see the current voltage? I couldn't find it looking through setcpu - is there a terminal command i can run? Thanks for your help!

yes. theres a command. type

#cat /proc/overclock/mpu_opps

[parm289]

Thanks, I actually figured that looking at mpu_opps would give me the values right after I posted.

On another note, I think an important point to talk about here is the possibility of keeping stock cpu frequency and undervolting to save battery. There's a thread over on DroidXForums about undervolting to 34 vsel while keeping the cpu at stock 1 GHz. This vsel value works great for me, and my battery usage has dropped dramatically. I can link to the thread if you want.
