Scripts

1. set_overclock.sh

This script modifies /boot/config.txt to apply custom overclock settings to enhance device performance. It adds the following parameters to the configuration file:

• over_voltage=6
• arm_freq=2147
• gpu_freq=750

The script checks if these values are already in place to avoid duplicate entries, ensuring a clean configuration.

Usage

chmod +x set_overclock.sh
./set_overclock.sh

2. set_governor.sh

This script sets the CPU governor for all 4 CPUs to "performance" mode, aiming to maintain maximum CPU frequency for improved processing speed. After applying the "performance" setting, the script reads back the governor values to verify the update.

Usage

chmod +x set_governor.sh
./set_governor.sh

Requirements

• sudo access is required to modify system settings.
• postmarketOS environment, specifically configured for the uConsole device.

Usage

1. Clone the repository and navigate to the directory.
2. Make the scripts executable:
