as of now i use giantpunes kernal, yes it is wonderful. But i would love to see if we can get this wonderful, stubborn device up to 2Mhz.. i know this is probably impossible but what do you guys think? :)
**MAKE THIS B*TCH LIKE SHE IS ON STEROIDS**

Hmmmm idk. It's already overclocked at 1200 as it is. I don't think it would last long at 2000. That's pretty insane.

Here are a couple of relevant posts from our resident geniuses. You can do it but you probably shouldn't.

You can allow further overclocking by adding more values in acpuclock-7x30.c (in the kernel source) but you have to provide appropriate voltages as well. I wouldn't be surprised if this thing could overclock to 2.0GHz but it might be dangerous and would severely decrease the lifespan of the CPU.


There is a link to the source in the first post. And there is a table already of frequencies and voltages that goes up to 1.9GHz. Only certain frequencies are added to the list for scaling, with the highest one at 1.6Ghz. You should be able to tell it to use the 1.9GHz manually. I personally feel that 1.6 is already at the line, and never have tried any of the ranges above that.

This is the full table. Entries that start with a 1 as the first parameter are used for the auto-scaling governors.
Code:
static struct clkctl_acpu_speed acpu_freq_tbl[] = {
	{ 0, 24576,SRC_LPXO, 0, 0,  30720000,  900, VDD_RAW(900) },
	{ 0, 61440,   PLL_3, 5, 11, 61440000,  900, VDD_RAW(900) },
	{ 1, 122880,  PLL_3, 5, 5,  61440000,  900, VDD_RAW(900) },
	{ 0, 184320,  PLL_3, 5, 4,  61440000,  900, VDD_RAW(900) },
	{ 1, 245760,  PLL_3, 5, 2,  61440000,  900, VDD_RAW(900) },
	{ 1, 368640,  PLL_3, 5, 1,  122800000, 900, VDD_RAW(900) },
	{ 1, 460800,  PLL_1, 2, 0,  153600000, 900, VDD_RAW(900) },
	{ 1, 576000,  PLL_1, 2, 0,  153600000, 950, VDD_RAW(950) },
	{ 1, 652800,  PLL_1, 2, 0,  153600000, 950, VDD_RAW(950) },
	{ 1, 768000,  PLL_1, 2, 0,  153600000, 950, VDD_RAW(950) },
	{ 1, 806400,  PLL_2, 3, 0, UINT_MAX, 1000, VDD_RAW(1000), &pll2_tbl[0]},
	{ 1, 921600,  PLL_2, 3, 0, UINT_MAX, 1000, VDD_RAW(1000), &pll2_tbl[1]},

1.6GHz is pretty good... out of curiosity, what do you have to do on your phone that requires almost as much power as a laptop?

Yeah, it's really not a good idea, unless you don't care about damaging your phone permanently. Heat, wear, consumes more battery. Not worth it.

yes, i can agree with this. But think if it did run stable, i mean i'm pretty sure no one thought we "giantpune" would get it to 1.6? Miracles do happen my friend :) if i decide to test it i will report back.. Still "rock paper scissoring" lol :D

id be happy to try a 2GHz OC i run my elite with 1.6GHz as the maximum and minimum frequencies at all times without any problems (overheat,battery drain etc.) so i doubt 2GHz will be a big difference also the benchmark from stock (1946) skyrocketed with the OC (2902) lol i had them written down anyways i would love to see benchmarks with the 2GHz were already beating dual core phones in quadrant with giantpunes lovely kernel
