EVO 4G overclocked to 1.267GHz!

Published February 18, 2012 | By Bman

Kernel patches for developers here: forum.xda-developers.com After some kernel tweaking, I got the EVO 4G to 1.267GHz, up from the stock 998MHz. Linpack results jumped from ~6.9MFLOPS to ~8.8MFLOPS. That’s almost a 30% increase in speed! The SetCPU long benchmark jumped by a substantial amount too! It’s a fairly straightforward modification, but overclocking does require a slight voltage increase over stock. Froyo should make this thing a lot faster, and we can even undervolt/underclock to save battery (we all know the battery life on the EVO isn’t exactly the best)! This *should* also work on the HTC Incredible, because they both use very similar silicon, but there are no guarantees – the Nexus can’t get this high, for example. Thanks to toastcfh for his source, Hero_Over for creating the first booting overclocked kernel on the EVO, all the kernel devs in the N1 community, especially pershoot and kmobs, and richardtrip from the Desire community, and all who helped to root the EVO 4G.
