At one point and time, we believed it to be damn near impossible to crack the Droid X. Motorola’s hardware nanny’s were designed to ruin all of our hacking fun. But the talented bunch of Android hackers and developers set out on liberating the platform. And now, several months later, after gaining root access and custom ROMs, the DX can add another notch to the belt — overclocking.
Overclocking turned the 1st gen Droid from merely snappy to flying. Things on the DX are a slightly different affair. That is, don’t expect any crazy 2x-3x overclocks. For now, all you’re going to be able to muster is 1.1GHz. Yup — a paltry 100MHz. Will you notice it? Outside of benchmarks probably not. But, it’s a step in the right direction. A small step is still a step towards success.
If you’re feeling the need to get down and dirty with DX overclocking from the onset, point your browser right over here. Just remember, warranties go buh-bye when doing such things. Happy OC’ing
