Guest godinandroid Posted April 28, 2011 Report Posted April 28, 2011 Has anyone managed to do this? I can install the software, but it wont let me go above 1ghz or change the scaling field. Is this down to kernal limitations (as I've read somewhere) or something else..? (me).

Guest danb79 Posted April 28, 2011 Report Posted April 28, 2011 you need to install the covus5 or the new fuji-vega roms to b able to oc
Guest godinandroid Posted April 28, 2011 Report Posted April 28, 2011 Ahah, ok, thanks guys I'll give it a go tonight:) What stops overclocking on the MoDaCo rom? It would be awesome to be able to keep it and overclock, as I rather like it.

Guest Lennyuk Posted April 28, 2011 Report Posted April 28, 2011 CM7 also allows you to overclock, and now has full hardware acceleration too so it is no worse off than using a 2.2 based rom

It would be awesome to be able to keep it and overclock, as I rather like it. I believe the Kernel has to support overclocking, and I don't think Modaco R8 does. The main ROMs such as Corvus and as Lenny says, CM7 support it.. And for example, on Corvus, you need to drop the setCPU.txt file on the root of your SD Card, and install the setCPU app (Free if you join XDA-developer forums), then just run setCPU, and as mentioned, in the intial setup screen, the last choice in 'your device' is to manually set the device, which will then ask if you want to use the setCPU.txt, and off you go... :mellow:
