[KernelModule] Overclock

**** Do Not Repost! Link back to this thread! ****
*** Update: This works on Thrill/Optimus 3D. There are seperate kernel modules for Froyo/GingerBread/CyanogenMod kernels***
Here ya go... I prefer this method rather than hard coding changes in the kernel. Assuming you have both kernel modules extracted to /sdcard
Switch to root
Code:
$ su
Copy files from sdcard to /system/lib/modules directory - You only do this once
Code:
# cp /sdcard/symsearch.ko /system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko
# cp /sdcard/opperator.ko /system/lib/modules/opperator.ko
Load modules, always do symsearch.ko first - You do this every time you reboot
Code:
# insmod /system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko
# insmod /system/lib/modules/opperator.ko
Set Frequency - You do this when you want to change frequency - in hz, that's 6 additions Zero's to make Mhz
Code:
# echo 1188000000 > /proc/opperator
This uses SYMSEARCH by Skrilax_CZ

Inspired by Milestone Overclock by Tiago Sousa, but totally rewritten for omap kernel 2.6.35-7 and above.
http://code.google.com/p/milestone-overclock/
This is a stripped down version. I'm working on a fully featured version, that will allow you to play with voltage as well. There are some hurdles to overcome before that is ready for prime time... In the mean time, lets see what stock voltage can do... 1188 is my sweet spot on stock voltage, what is yours? I get up to 1235 without reboots, or real noticeable lags but the linkpacks are all over the place, where it stays in the 80's at 1188. And remember, the number is in hz a.k.a. cycles per second, so to get Mhz, you must add 'Six Zeroes' to the end of your desired Mhz.
* Note2Devs: Feel free to put this in your ROM, but please do credit me for the Overclock in your release, and link back to this thread. You can also post a link to your ROM here as a way to make myself and other aware of it. Thanks...
* Echts shows us how he integrate's the module into his own ROM. TY, Echts...

Essentially, hardware wise, the Thrill has exactly the same specs as the Optimus 3D ? I mean, CPU wise.

It's the same hardware

Yes, give this a go on the O3D, the module is actually compiled against the cyanogenmod cosmo kernel, which is really for the O3D. Should work.

How do I install this on the optimus 3D?

No real installing... It's just the modules... You can throw them in /system/lib/modules, and then use an init script to load them up, then set the frequency, but don't do that until you know what works *STABLE* for you.
If you have a favorite ROM, let the dev know about this, and maybe they'll integrate it.
I'm not sure if custom kernels like acurateam's might be too different to work properly at this point. But it won't hurt to try. Just don't start loading it at boot right away.

Great job.... we use to use this type of script in motorola defy and moto bravo. It was easier with those because of the 2nd init recovery booting.

What I'd really like is for the ROM making dev's to come to a consensus as to how to integrate this... Mainly, the best place to throw the script that does this at boot on these phones. I know how we did it on droid X, but I haven't dug deep enough into this phone just yet to be sure... I'll update the OP as methods improve and I get more feedback.

Or use callmearia kernel and make script for system/etc/init folder... havent tried his kernel but it should support the script at boot up. Acura roms should work that way too.
The way most roms use overclock is the init script that starts at boot...

Those would have been based on Milestone Overclock... Which is where I gained most of my knowledge by contributing to getting the droidx/2 side of things working. MO's method of manipulating frequency and voltage no longer works on OMAP4, or rather kernel 2.6.35+... I had to come up with a new way of doing things, which didn't fit well under the existing framework of MO. So, I started from scratch... This is just the tip of the iceberg... Basic, basic, basic...

i get insmod: init_module /system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko failed (exec format error).
What am i doing wrong?

I also get the same error: insmod: init_module '/system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko' failed (exec format error)
Is it because I have gingerbread?
Must I use froyo?

Both O3D's, huh? What kernel are you running? give me output of
# dmesg
and

And if it's acurateam, a link to their kernel source

"LINK Boot_2.0 More RAM, No Lags, More Speed.." from acura. Think he uses stock kernel. Im on GB by the way.
Outputs is a bit over my head. Tell me how and i´ll provide it for you.

Making Voodoo settings stick

I know that a lot of people are asking how to make voodoo settings stick. I found the following to work even on roms without init.d. I suppose this means Rom Toolbox could be used to run all your scripts
For those that do not know how to write scripts this is easy.
This works on roms without init.d as well.
Download ROM Toolbox from market. Open scripter. Create new script. Copy and paste the following:
#! /sys/bin/sh
echo 2309122400 >/sys/class/misc/voodoo_color/red_multiplier
echo 2309122400 >/sys/class/misc/voodoo_color/green_multiplier
echo 2701672960 >/sys/class/misc/voodoo_color/blue_multiplier
echo -44 >/sys/class/misc/voodoo_color/blue_v1_offset
echo -50 >/sys/class/misc/voodoo_color/red_v1_offset
echo -53 >/sys/class/misc/voodoo_color/green_v1_offset
These settings are from samoled. You can change the numbers to your preference. Save the script. You can then run the script and set to run at boot all from ROM Toolbox.

Damnmisur, can you create a script to automatically change the "Background Process Limit" to at most 3 processes?
Seems like this is another one of those things that don't stick upon restarting. Many people like to set their limits instead of letting apps stay in memory.
Thanks!

Wish I could. I'm a noob and figured out the voodoo colors script by looking at system files. I don't really know how to make the script for what you are asking for.

Speed Tweaks for Blur ROMS

This will only modify what needs to be tweak in the build.prop.
It will not modify anybody else's build.prop work.
This means it can be used after you install a custom ROM and
keep any changes your dev has made to their own build.prop.
I have screen shots of my 3 Mps DSL Line and my LTE.
If it gives any indication about how much more performance gain there is
WiFi gives me up to 2.9 Mbps normally.
LTE gives me close to 30 Mbps normally.
Revision 2:
little less aggressive on the phone itself
little bit better WiFi and LTE speeds
cleaned up TONS of code and named everything!
Also the 2nd version will save a backup so you
can restore your old build.prop if you do not like
the changes that were made from from the tweaks.
AND it should keep the original build.prop.
Mind you, the undoer will only work with version 2.
you can also make a swap file (paging file like windows)
command will be
# busybox mkswap /dev/block/zram0
# chmod 077 /dev/block/zram0
# reboot

I have tried and failed miserably! I am no means a "true" programmer BUT
I have a work around for the people with SS3. Although it does involve a
terminal emulator which is free and the Google Play Store link is BAM!
I will make a flashable fix in the morning with instructions on how to do it.
I will also have a screenshot of what to type as well. The script will still do
the same thing as the flashable BUT in the terminal (manual way)

Just ran the .sh
I just modified and ran the SH from the command line. Only had to remove one > per file. Thanks, my speed increase isn't amazing, but its solid. You are Awesome.

Is there a way to flash this in ss305 yet or what

No, I'm sorry, haven't time to work on it. right now the work around is through a shell and reboot

[Q] Change Governor Before Flashing

Is there a possible method to change default governor like "ondemand" to "conservative" before flashing the ROM ??? What I mean is can any user change any ROM value in any file to achieve the same so that ROMS which does not have CPU Control ( Like AOSP ) can boot up with conservative governor ???

AFAIR,in kernel config u need to change this while compiling:
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_
GOV_PERFORMANCE is not set

Does it have the overclock module and does it load properly? As far as I know if you have stock kernel the only way to overclock is via module.
Check system/lib/modules if you have x8oc.ko. I suppose that's the file you're going to use to overclock the phone. If you don't then download it and put it there.
If you have it, open Terminal Emulator and write:
su
dmesg | grep x8oc
You should receive the output that it loaded successfully. If you get no output, the module isn't running.
If you have it and it isn't running, then open Terminal Emulator and write:
su
insmod system/lib/modules/x8oc.ko
This should run the module and allow you to switch frequencies. Start testing the frequencies with whatever CPU app you use.
When you're satisfied with the performance, add the insmod command to hw_config in system/etc and echo the clock value that suits you. You can find more information about this in the x8oc thread. Don't worry about reboots, make a backup before trying, and make sure you don't edit the hw_config file until you're sure the clock is stable.

Thank you it helped. I can now overclock
