Root Motorola Milestone Overclock Development

I'm probably late to the party but this thread has worked wonders for my milestone. Thanks everybody for all the hard work.

One obvious thing, don't forget to update the mot_boot_mode script to overclock12.ko from overclock11.ko... duh, blushes
 
I'm curious how to setup the custom frequency, i can drag the slider to 800 but it sets vsel to 66, i setup custom to 800000/62.

Thoughts?

When you create a custom, it's located on the furtherest right part of the slider (past 1200Mhz). You should find your custom settings there.
 
I have my Milestone set to 800mhz at 48vsels, all is working fine.
afaik, the lower the vsel the more stable it should be but not too low or the cpu won't get enough juice to run properly, too high a vsel it will also damage the cpu,

at 800mhz, 48vsel, it doesnt go above 42 degress celcius even in my hot weather, but it still heats up pretty quick
 
If I'm going to reprogram the tables for 250mhz and 500mhz to use lower voltages, is there an app that I can monitor the current voltages? I want to see that its being used and that I'm doing it right.

SetCPU shows you your current frequency, but doe sit show the voltage?
 
What about the overclock apk? It shows vsel and freq.

the app from this thread is what I'm assuming you're talking about? It shows the max vsel and max freq though.

I realize that if you input your own tables for frequencies, you can make a table of 5 frequencies all the way up to your max freq as detailed in this app. I'm sure its doing 1000mhz @ 60vsel as I indicated in the app, but I want to make sure that its hitting the voltages I set for the lower frequencies.

I figure that while its nice to undervolt the top frequency, my phone is on idle 90% of the day anyway, and it'd be nice to undervolt the idle frequencies too.

I'm just a little unsure if I did it properly (although nothing seems broken so I can assume its working). I just wanted a double check and was wondering if theres an app like SetCPU that can monitor voltages + frequencies real time... kinda like CPU-Z on a computer you know :D

Did anyone try:

echo 60 > /proc/overclock/max_vsel
echo 1000000 > /proc/overclock/max_rate
echo "1 125000000 16" > / proc/overclock/mpu_opps
echo "2 250000000 24" > / proc/overclock/mpu_opps
echo "3 550000000 38" > / proc/overclock/mpu_opps
echo "4 800000000 46" > / proc/overclock/mpu_opps
echo "5 1000000000 60" > / proc/overclock/mpu_opps

something like that before?
