1.3 GHz on Your G2? Pennies.

G2 1.4Yesterday it was reported that the G2 had been overclocked to 1.3 Ghz. Naturally 1.3 Ghz is so yesterday, now the rage is 1.42.  It’s interesting to know that all of this has been done without permanent root.  And even with no break in the fog the modding community would never let that get them down, and will continue day and night to improve our phones and OS.

From coolbho3000:

After two nights of mostly guesswork, I have managed to create an overclocking kernel module for the HTC Vision. The result? I have been able to not only overclock the MSM7x30 in this phone to 1GHz, the stock speed of the higher “binned” but identical 8×55 used in the Desire HD, I have been able to push the processor in my G2 significantly further, up to 1.42GHz! Benchmark scores are very, very high, and the improved CPU performance is in line with what you’d expect from such a high clock frequency. All of this is possible without permanent root (and the ability to flash kernels) because we are using a kernel module and not flashing an actual kernel.

Guesswork? Awesome.
