Root Droid X/2 Overclock App - Easy & Noob friendly ;)

[jrummy16]

Well, I got my Droid X 3 days ago and have worked non stop (besides normal work + school :-/ ), and I am happy to bring you Droid X/2 Overclock.


Droid-Life Article

Currently you can Choose to set your frequencies at boot and in real time. It's just as good as an instant kernel installer to get your custom frequency and voltage whenever you want, instantly.

Check it out on the market or GET IT HERE

This is just the beginning, more customization to come as an advanced option and more extras are in the works

It works GREAT! Here's the QR:

This one seems to work better for me than the other OC app.

 

[Steven58]

Seems to work great. I have it set for the highest one on medium voltage. Can you tell me: is this a true reading? Am I actually overclocked at 1450 when it says I am (confirmed by SetCPU) or is that like a maximum-type number?

Also, what is the voltage number for "medium"?

Bought it and used it once. I really like the app.

One problem though, after that first use I made sure my phone was stable. I went to the app drawer and looked for it but I couldn't find it. So I went to the market to open it there and when I clicked it, a message popped up "the requested item could not be found." So is this happening with everyone or does my life just suck?

EDIT: Nevermind it seems to be working now. Thanks for your hard work!

You can view your current setscaling by typing the following in terminal emulator:

cat /proc/overclock/mpu_opps

Are you using gscript?

Meh I like the other one better it has custom presets so I can fine tune each setting and switch.between em on the fly

i bought the app but when i go to edit or change anything i get a prompt saying...error;failed to install overclocking components to email the dev?

 

[mikeg2716]

"failed to install overclocking componets""contact the developer for help"
??????

Yeah, same thing here, must be a bug in version 1.0.2

 

[gmenfan83]

do u guys think its something with the settings for overcloking in fabs 1.0?maybe turn his off?

 

[SacNutz]

I'm running fab's ROM. I did the overclock -off script and this app runs fine. I was actually getting mass reboots with the rom settings, but with this app I can run much higher speeds with no problems.

 

[gmenfan83]

i tried turning off the auto settings from apex 1.0 and it still dont work!

 

[gmenfan83]

i am also wondering if the apps running numbers are true to form......if your phone csnt run lets say 1.3 when u change the overclock settings manually or via zip or what have u how would it achieve that through an app?

Steven do you have any benchmarking programs/apps. Dont use quadrant as that will not scale accurately. But Linpack, SpeedPi, Benchmark Pi, CPUBenchmark or even the Benches within SetCPU's Info tab will give you a good sense if you in fact have gained 45% clockspeed

How do you read the results? Just look like numbers lol

 

[Growler48]

+1

 

[SimsDelt]

So I can't use this app because it gives me "cannot install overclock files" or whatever that error is? Anyone know why? Is it because I'm currently running overclocked at 1.35ghz? I renamed all the files to .bak and it still gives me the error.

 

[Growler48]

I'm getting the same thing on mine and I'm not running a custom ROM, just a theme. I sent an email to the developer to see what he says.

 

[gmenfan83]

head to the market and install dx/d2 overclock app ...it is working great for me and actually works ....no offense to the dev but i cant use if it dont work!

Well you have to take preliminary numbers off the 1Ghz scores. So test it with 1Ghz and then re test with 1.45Ghz or whatever you end up at. There should be a relative proportional increase

The qr doesn't work for me. It says pname:com.jrummy.droidx.overclock not found. I also didn't see it when searching for "overclock" in the store. Has it been removed?

 

[sleepsafe]

Bought it on Appbrain this afternoon. Search Droid X/2 Overclock. Or try here.

 

[92slammer]

installed the droid x/2 overclock app but i get the "error failed to install overclocking components...contact the developer" if uninstalled it and reinstalled it 3 times and get the same message...even rebooted...any ideas

 

[bostoniansurvivor]

Does anyone have a benchmark with this overclock?
