[APP] Overclocking the CPU (Not Safe To Try)

[aksd]

Heres an article on overclocking the E2 CPU: http://www.e2mod.com/content/view/188/29/

Thoereticaly it should work on the MING but it does'nt. The E2 and Ming share the same processor and software to some extent. Anyone can make this work?

I'll add a bit of a warning for everybodys benefit

WARNING: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. PROLONGED USAGE IS LIABLE TO BURN THE PROCESOR.

Note: Improper killing of the apmd function can overheat if not melt you phone

I'm assuming based on the link that this won't work for generic firmware since the startup text does not work?

[Pondo]

what would be the point of this?

[joaorodrigo]

Dedraks,
Is there a way for u make a tutorial in how to overclock ?
I tried to execute /proc/cpufinfo in ecolsole and it returned permision denied
And i don´t have startup.txt at /ezxlocal
I am using 24 xpp

Theoretically, it should allow our ming's processor to run faster than the rated speed

[NightCrawler]

How did you do it?! I have tried copying the file as instructed in that site, and still my cpuinfo is the same...
