[Q] Can you Overclock the Droid 2?

Hey guys, I'm kind of new to the forum. Sorry if this is a frequently asked question, but I just was wondering if you can overclock the Motorola Droid 2 and if it's even worth it. Thanks!

If we could we would. The simple answer for now is No because the Bootloader is locked so we can't flash Kernels to OC

Sounds to me like a challenge! I'm sure someone can do this!

Eh thought so, hopefully someone will find a way, but it's not really necessary my phone is already pretty fast. Just was curious.

interesting read, thanks.
But yeah, basically just get ready to hurry up and wait. People will be working on it until someone gets in.
For now you'll just have to be glad you live in the future and get to carry computers in your pocket I guess.

Does this information apply to Droid 2? Everything I see on this post looks like it refers to the Sholes (Milestone, Original Droid) and not the Droid 2 (different hardware).

Heya. I'm the developer of QuickClock, another overclocking app in the market. I was wondering if many Droid2 owners had tried it out? I've added support for a bunch of devices that I don't have direct access too, so I'm hoping to get some confirmation that it does indeed work as it should.
Thanks much,
Paul

I was going to oblige you and try out your app, but it wasn't a free app.
I'm not going to pay to beta test it for you.

If you google droid 2 overclock, there are several sites with instructions on how to do it.

Root your phone and get the Droid 2 Overclock app by JRummy16 in the android market. Only $1.50 and worth every penny.
Many options, including profiles (screen on/off, temp, etc)
Choose your voltage (Ultra low, Low, Medium, High)
Overclock up to 1.45GHz (my phone can only take 1.35GHz on ultra low voltage)
*Be careful when overclock on low voltage. DO NOT check "apply on boot" until you know your cpu can handle what you have overclocked too, or you could be facing bootloops.*

It's definitely a great app; the customization options allow you to tweak the overclocking settings exactly to your liking, and the extra features (ad blocking, memory management) are a plus.

Can't overclock a droid 2. A ha ha ha, a ha ha ha ha.

Good lord that app has a lot of features. It's pretty funny that my D2 is faster doing things @ 300 Mhz than my Eris @ 768 Mhz.

I'm keeping mine at 1GHz max but at very low voltage. I had some trouble running Hungry Shark 2 at anything higher. I tried all voltages so I don't know what the problem is since everything else ran ok even at higher clocks.
Anyhow I like to make a profile and run the priority/threshold down low to 10 or so. Makes it real responsive to touch & fling so it feels faster even at lower maximum clocks.

I/O Speed increse like Desire

Hello
I was wondering if any devs would be able to get this working on our hero's It massively increases the I/o speed aswell as efficiency meaning a greater battery life I'm going to have a go my self later aswell.

Damn if we get that to work on the Hero(es) that would be TOO awesome!! Then we can show newer phone you can teach an old dog new tricks.

I agree the benchmark score looks amazing but will this hack actually improve usability or performance? or is it just a hack that boosts the benchmark score?

Interesting... Not entirely sure how it works but and speed increase on the GSM is more than welcome

Feeyo has made a port into some test releases. You can get it here:

The speed shown there is around the 700Mhz mark... nice.. but how is this different than flashing a 748Mhz kernel and using SetCPU to overclock your hero? or is it more to do with the internal working of data transfer?

that's a bit of a downer on the computing side!
my n1 consistently gets 38-40 linpack. figured the dual core would do much better...

do these programs recognize the dualcore processor yet?

I really don't think they actually recognize the dual core models.

You are absolutely correct - must've had a brain cramp!
At what point does the android kernel begin to support multi-threading? I'm guessing we'll be seeing huge performance gains with 2.3/2.4 and as app devs begin building mt support in to their apps...

Open mouth, insert foot! DC means everything to the "tech heads" that know how to use it and build mt support in to their apps - and that includes the google devs.

That's fantastic. Let's try that again, though. What did you Nexus S pull when it was completely stock? 1500 or so?
Otherwise, as has been said already, the benchmarks are likely only taxing one core at the moment, as I doubt the kernel on the phone is setup for auto-aggregation, etc. Even if it is, apps written specifically for multi-threading will be significantly faster.
I love the Nexus S as much as the next guy, but let's revisit this conversation once the Atrix launches and has had a chance for some real dev support, shall we?

It doesn't necessarily have to be the app that supports multi-threading. If the kernel supports it then it would assign a core for the apps to work on based on the workload. This would speed up the system regardless of what the apps for designed for because the apps wouldn't know any better. Regardless though, it wouldn't help the benchmark if it is only one process. But then again, if it does everything you want better the last phone, does it matter? (I know I know... we all want our big numbers)
With any luck we'll find out today.

But in the case of benchmarking apps it would, because they are specifically designed to use all available resources. If they are single thread, they aren't using multiple cores.
These are some of the highest benchmarking scores I have seen out of the box, but I don't think they are optimized to use DC's yet.

Froyo supports dual core fine. It just doesn't support breaking up apps threads to schedule across both cores unless the app is multi-threaded.

How to keep CPU downclocked? SetCPU gets pushed out of RAM...

Running Nottachtrix 1.2.1. Want CPU to stay underclocked for battery life...lasts way longer at 600mhz.

Use SetCPU to adjust the clock speeds.

System Tuner works very well for me.

Setcpu also. Never had issues with it.
Sent from my Atrix with XDA Premium

One issue that I have had with underclocking is that whenever I underclocked, the second core goes offline and stays offline forever. If you use system tuner, you will notice that the second core will remain offline unless you go back to 1ghz.

You only use both cores when you need it, and 99% of the time the Atrix does not need to utilize both cores. You will see them kick in working full time when using the lapdock. I use System Tuner with Faux 1.0GHz and mild UV on Nottachtrix 1.3.1. Everything runs fine as far as CPU utilization goes.

I know that you only use both cores when you need it but when you underclock to let's say 750Mhz or lower, the second core will go offline after a while and stay like that. If you play a game or watch a video, the second core will still stay offline and one way to find out is to go to the "Times" tab in System Tuner, and you will see that the second core has not been working at all even when you play intensive 3D games or watch HD videos. This happens only when you underclock.

I believe the second core has to work when you are playing 3d games and watching HD videos regardless of the frequency. I basically want both cores to work at 750mhz but the second always goes offline and it never comes back. Even when browsing you can feel that its slower due to the second core not working.

It depends where you want to draw the line, more performance with less stability, or slight increase of performance and good stability. The S3 was 40% overclockable, i think 2.1ghz was the max, althoug im not sure it was stable and cool at those speeds

lol noob he didnt prove me wrong, i was talking about the s3... go back under your rock

Samsung SoC are never the same, as evidenced with the S3. I would expect the S4 will be the same.

There will be an extremely small amount of people who will be able to push there CPU a hundred hertz or two higher do to luck of the batch, but other then that I would guess stable OC's at 2.3 to 2.4ghz. The hardware in the GS4 is top notch so I have high hopes for it! If I can slam 2.2ghz stable for a couple months solid, I would be tickled ^^

We are on track, evolution on the S3 can probably be taken into consideration for the S4. Stop being to soft about where the thread is heading. Like ktoon said himself, 2.7 on the S4, that does look like the 40% i was referring to about the S3. So my point is made and it does have a lot to do with this thread.

Once it was fixed, only a couple of people with a golden processor could actually set the dial to 2.1, and even those people crashed within a couple of minutes.
Not gonna argue with a known troll... loved watching your angry rewrites of your post over and over though!
As to talking about the s3, it was being discussed as a comparison... if the s3 can overclock X much, then the s4 can probably do something similiar. Since ktoonsez was nice enough to take a guess at what the s4 will do, we dont have to speculate as much now.

HAHAHAHAH, known troll!!! HAHAHAHAH Good one!
You just messed up, you cannot live with the fact that i was right and you were wrong. I never did say it was stable, you just assumed i did. You just cannot say "hey polish, i'm sorry for being such a newb, you were right, the S3 can run a 2.1ghz and that math problem turned out to be fixed anyways"
The difference between me and you is that I speak the truth, you in the other hand call others noobs when clearely, you are the noob here and to try and save yourself, you try to make other look bad.

Bump?
I feel like this thread was never answered. I have recently rooted my phone for the first time, and I have been trying to overlook it with no such luck. I watched a few videos, and even posted a thread on Linus Tech Tips, but they are not as focused on phones as this site is. They sent me here and wished me luck on overclocking my phone. So to get to them point, I have no clue how to overclock my GS4 SGH-I337 on AT&T. I did successful root it, and I used root checker to make sure. I am hoping that you guys can help me, or redirect me to a forum that may have already explained in detail how to overclock.
Thanks!
