Motorola Xoom Now Overclocked to 1.5Ghz, Creates Wormholes

Not even a full day after we reported the Motorola Xoom getting overclocked to 1.2Ghz, it has been overclocked even further to 1.5Ghz! The guy doing the dirty work again is Michael Huang (@coolbho3k), otherwise known as the developer of SetCPU for Android. He is also working on optimizing the SetCPU UI for tablets, which should be up soon. Two cores running at 1.5Ghz is insanely fast for a tablet, and once applications become optimized to use both cores, things are going to get very interesting. Also, don’t be alarmed when your tablet becomes self-aware and begins making its own decisions. Hit the break for a tutorial and video!

Instructions:
1. Make sure you’ve unlocked your Xoom’s bootloader for flashing first, then root it.
2. Grab this zip and extract it. It includes a boot.img with the overclocked kernel and a corresponding wifi module: http://www.setcpu.com/files/xoom_ocboot.zip. Thanks to Koush for the rooted ramdisk in this boot.img!
3. Reboot into the bootloader by running:
adb reboot bootloader
4. Flash the boot image to your boot partition by running:
fastboot flash boot xoom_ocboot.img
5. Push the bcm4329.ko to your /system/lib/modules folder and reboot to re-enable wifi:
adb remount
adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
adb reboot

Thanks for the hard work Michael!
