I found this to be true too. I eventually went to the setscaling method.

If you are root, then you can use it to UNDERCLOCK your phone. You still have to use the overclock.sh method to overclock the phone.

Has anyone gotten this to work after updating to Froyo? I updated earlier and tried the original guide from Fabolous and I get the following result:

"insmod: init_module '/system/lib/modules/overclock.ko' failed (Exec format error)

Could someone kindly help me out here?

The 2.1 version does not work with the 2.2 leaked froyo. Doing it the "old" way will not work. As of now, you cannot overclock.

Thanks, that's what I was looking for.

One quick question: Do you download the files via computer, or via droid x? When i try to put them on my sd card, it says i have to use a different disk, or take write-protection off.

You will occasionally get a glitched score that is really high for some reason. Also there is the possibility that you have the build.prop file with the stagefright edit that gives a false high score by skipping part of the test. Someone got one that was 4000+ a while ago.

This only works on 2.1.

Froyo is a no go for now, buddy... the kernel module only works with 2.1..

Roadzero

Just fyi there is an app on the market called Milestone/Droid Overclock which supports Droid X running 2.1 apparently it will set overclock on boot also. Being free doesn't hurt either.

i dont think its glitched....whenever i run quadrant its always in that area. but if it is glitched how can i fix it?

Airmaxx23

You would have to check your build.prop file and see if the stagefright mod is turned on or not.
