G530R4, how to enable fast charging w/ rooted stock 5.1.1 ROM and maybe overclocking?



Hi,

I have a rooted G530R4 Grand Prime with latest stock 5.1.1 ROM. I would like to know the easiest way to enable fast charge support, all the APK app's require a "modded Kernel". I am not familiar with Linux but I am an ex IT professional who learned MS-DOS back when Windows 3.11 was the latest and greatest so command line doesn't scare me.

I would also be interested in enabling overclocking past 1190mhz but this is of virtually no practical use to me whereas a 2.1amp fast charge capability is of great practical benefit.

The Grand Prime comes with a 2600mah battery so using the conservative rule of "1C" (charge amperage being equal to capacity in amp-hour) using a 2.1amp charge current should be well within lithium ion/polymer safety margins.

****Some new advanced high current specialty lithium polymer batteries can safely be charged at 8C (that's 1/8th of an hour to fully charge) but don't get any ideas on smartphone batteries as smartphones have an extremely low discharge rate whereas high current applications often require batteries designed to be discharged in as little as 2 minutes, such as in performance radio controlled airplanes. It is unlikely for a high current capable battery to be marketed for a smartphone.
