Motorola Q Forum | Everything Q - View Single Post - Registry edit to force the CPU to 314 MHz

That's interesting, but I believe the CPU is actually a 312 MHz processor, not 314. (Yes, it's a nit.) Look at the Threshold208to312 value, for example.

In fact, maybe changing those values can achieve the same effect. I'm guessing the values control when the CPU speeds up or slows down based on CPU usage percentage.

So maybe the following settings would work, too:

Threshold104to208 -- Change from 60 to 2.
Threshold208to312 -- Change from 85 to 4.
Threshold208to104 -- Change from 40 to 1.
Threshold312to208 -- Change from 50 to 3.

I haven't tried it, though (and probably won't

).

However, remember that any hacks here can hurt battery life (and, like any registry hack, mess up your device). Also, I might be worried about overheating if the CPU isn't designed to run full speed all the time (but I hope Motorola stress tested that).
