IT HAS BEEN PROVEN TO WORK THROUGH THIS THREAD. SO IF YOUR INTERESTED IN OVERCLOCKING YOUR BIONIC...READ ON.
I have been searching for a way to overclock the bionic. I found someone at xda that has overclocked the droid 3 without a custom kernel. I think we can use this information and improve on it for the bionic. See what you think....here it is!!

Hmm I'm tempted to give it a try. Good find!

 

[gearsofwar]

Did it wprk?

 

[runandhide05]

Ok, I did it, everything said it worked, but on benchmarks stool says 1.0ghz, going to try a few other benchmarks see if they pick up any thing else

edit: yes, a few more tests, all still reporting the same 1000mhz

I have all ready tried this, and no, it doesn't currently work for the bionic. Someone (dev) needs to tweak the files to the bionic. That should really be all it takes. However, this part is over my head.
I'm sure someone has the skills out there. I don't think its going to be difficult if you know what your doing.

First and second quadrant score on stock 7.893 u tell me. Great find OP.

 

[sjflowerhorn]

It doesnt show new clock speed in setcpu but they take. I got a 2300 right before i ran the 1200 script

 

[razz1]

Really??
I will test again.

 

[razz1]

Wow...maybe it does work. I have never hit over 2700 on quadrant! Cool

 

[runandhide05]

i stand corrected, justran cpu and ram test only, antutu bench 3001 at 1000Mhz and a 3668 @ 12ooMhz

So your confirmed to be running at 1.2?

I cannot confirm clock speed only performance increase. But in theory considering that fact yes.

 

[runandhide05]

What he said ^^
Can't confirm with any oc apps, benchmark tests, and in the sys/....../CPUfreq/ current or max setting still reading at 1000mhz

Dude that quadrant score is high. I never hit that with all roms flashed

 

[runandhide05]

I have noticed that if u change CPU, exit terminal, (actually close it, not back out and leave it running in the background) then go back into
Terminal and go to change it back to any other 1.1 or 1.0 my phone freezes and neef to reboot.
Someone want to check to see if that's the case for them aswell?
Go into term, su enter: 1100 enter, then menu, exit, then re enter term, su enter: 1000 enter, and that's where it freezes up on me.

wow just tried this and it definitely did something!! i'm getting numbers that i have never hit before on different benchmark tests!

EDIT- don't know if it is the placebo effect but the phone seems much snappier

EDIT AGAIN- May be able to attribute the snappiness of the phone to setting both the MIN and MAX to 1000 in setCPU. The CPU doesn't have to "spool up" But I am seeing higher tests scores so I guess some further research needs to be done.

 

[gearsofwar]

Can somebody summarize the directions easier? Lol im confused and i want to do it

 

[terryrook]

Well if you keep doing quadrants it gets faster as you go. Maybe im trippen but its not working here

I have run many tests on quadrant, and have never come up with a 2730 score. I have always set gov to performance and run about 3 to 4 times in a row. I have hit highest at about 2600. Now 2730. Antutu cpu only test was like 1300 now 1800.
