Hi guys, I've searched quite extensively but haven't found any solution yet...

I have a rooted Defy+ (see my sig for details). I had to flash an sbf for this, but so far so good. I have made quite a bit of tuning, and now would like to overclock & use different governors, ...

I have tried several solutions :
- overclocking menu in 2ndInit : no success (all modifications are just ignored)
- find a kernel with overclocking and undervolting possibilities : haven't found anything flashable, except of course full ROMS but I don't want to go that way (yet)
- use a software like "Milestone-Overclock" or SetVSel : no success (these apps are not compatible with MB526)

Have I missed something ? :confused:

Thanks for your answer. :good:

I managed to get something workable downloading the 4_clock_speeds.zip from the URL you shared :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25479166&postcount=16203

I overwrote the files, fixed the permissions, and copied some .ko librairies to have at the end the possibility to save some overclocking settings in 2ndInit. There are still some issues in 2ndInit (I only see the first 3 clocks so I can't manage the highest frequency and voltage), but at least, I can play with the overclock.conf file to change the settings. And this works : currently using [email protected] as a max freq.

I'll probaly end-up flashing the file provided in your post to have something more user friendly !
