Motorola Droid users are jealous of Nexus One coz of the higher hardwareconfig, especially CPU. Droidis powered by 600Mhz ARM which is now Overclock to outperform Nexus One 1Ghz SnapDragon.

The overclocker ran various tests to check the system stability at various clock speeds: 800Mhz, 900Mhz, 1Ghz, 1.1Ghz. 800Mhz proved to be most stable and safe for ideal usage.

Benchmarks:

800Mhz
6.76 Mflops/s linpack.
3395 on BenchmarkPi

900MHz
7.646 Mflops/s on linpack
3054 on BenchmarkPi

990MHz
8.367 Mflops/s on linpack
2695 on BenchmarkPi

1GHz
8.498 Mflops/s on linpack
2661 on BenchmarkPi

1.1GHz
9.254 Mflops/s on linpack
2435 BenchmarkPi

Warning: Overclocking can damage your hardware. Overclocking increases the CPU clock, and hence heat dissipation an can even cause irreversible changes

Alright, now you can go ahead:

Step 1: Root your Motorola Droid [Instant Root] or Root Motorola Droid [Traditional way]

Step 2: Make sure that you have flash_image on your system, in /system/xbin/ or /system/bin.

Step 3: Switch on USB debugging on the phone.

Step 4: Download evilboot8.img for 800Mhz, evilboot9.img for 900Mhz andevilboot1g.img for 1Ghz.

Step 5: Reboot into SPrecovery mode and mount:

mount /system
moust /sdcard

Run the adb command (form PC):

adb shell /system/xbin/flash_image boot /sdcard/evilboot8.img

(where xbin is xbin or bin depending on location of flash_image file on phone)

Step 6:Next, unmount in the following order and Reboot

unmount /system
unmount /sdcard

That’s all. Enjoy the faster Droid.
