Now that the kernel source is available, won't we be able to overclock our mobiles?
Guess i got a little bit envious with all the overclocking that has being going on with other phones.

So is it possible yet.

Been possible for last 3months. Just find a kernel with oc support and get setcpu. Frankly its not worth it as setcpu is a piece of **** app that make your system unstable. As other poster said. Do a damn search

But for froyo? Maybe is asking for it.
maybe someone with the tallents could have a look into this OC method they use for droid x and milestone using a kernel module, this would enable us to overclock any froyo kernel.

It would be nice to have it in the kernel. 100 to 1200 that the system controlling like it already do. No setcpu crap.

also setcpu is not to blame for the problems, as it runs just well on galaxy i7500 for overclocking. i´m not sure what the problem wit it is on SGS, but i´m pretty its not setcpu´s fault

The problem is that SGS doesn't like different CPU governors! It will only work if you don't touch the governor settings! At least that is what I have found to work in the Eclair builds!

Seems ignorance is bliss for some of our fellow xda folks. SetCPU is not even needed for those oc kernels unless you want to change scaling from default schema. It really don't contribute to the unstablity, just that the kernels seemed inefficient.

I agree. Don't install SetCPU and the kernel is reasonably stable, but crashes miserably when running cup intensive apps. We have to work harder developing a kernel which works well for our hardware.

kernel was very much stable. It is just that hummingbird is bad for overclocking. Not all phones can be overclocked, sadly.

I can understand what you are suggesting, however why was it still unstable when I tried to disable 1.2GHz or 1.13GHz frequency keeping the original scaling and running at 1GHz or less??
Is that 0.2 bump really noticeable?

dont know which version you used.
1.13 was quite old. All recent versions were 1.2. Anyway, nevermind =)
Yeah, do want a OC'able kernel - the 1.2GHz kernels for Éclair were always stable enough for me if I didn't try to UV it.
Id be open to using a 1.2Ghz OC if its 100% stable and no wake-up bugs and ofcourse should not affect the life of my CPU that much and should not drain my battery more than 10% faster

This had probably been covered many times previously but due to the kernels being updated so often, I feel the need to discuss it.
The fact that I've tried loads of rims and now mixing it up trying kernels is just a coincidence :-D

Its a matter of preference that's why you won''t get many people to answer you.
If you want Top performance but feel adventurous and can live with slight niggles, then you can use Advanced Voodoo 666 1.2 where you can OC it to 1280hz. Its like being on the edge without falling over
Otherwise, if you want stable and performance balance, then head to Speedmod's Kernel
If you want extreme performance with sacrifice over battery life or stability, head to Super Optimized OC/UV Kernel

Try using speedmod's kernels on the link below. They have some kind of charge protection into them that says charge full when battery is like 98% or so full. This avoids getting full charge helping fix charge death.
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893880
Edit: Don't worry abt losing that 2%. These kernels are pretty battery efficient and make up for that 2% charge.
I think Designgears posted a work-around solution using SetCPU as well. You might want to search for that thread in the Development forum and see if that works.

Don't use an OC/UV kernel (see diablo009's speedmod link) or try the latest glitterballs kernel which seems to have fixed the charging shutdown problem.

Don't fret on OC/UV. I have SetiroNs 1.5.6 kernel. Have a quadrant score of 1350+. I used speedmod's kernels, n got a quadrant score of 1350+. None of these use voodoo. Nor do I use UV/OC.
All I did was to flash these, and convert the file systems to EXT4 (by default they are RFS). Do this and u'll find ur phone pretty fast.
Honestly, I think it was a freak thing, happened one night and that was it. Now its working like a.charm! thanks for your input!

What ROM are you running? I run Darky's 8.1 with Speedmod kernel, underclocked to 800MHz (conservative scaling down to 100MHz, no oc/uv), and my Captivate runs smooth as butter, no lag in launcher or apps, over 1200 in Quadrant (over 1300 if I remove the 800MHz cap).
Hey folks,
P-Funk asked me to take a look at the kernel source for the Zio and see what I could make of it.
I won't lie to you, its not pretty. However, determination usually prevails, and so I present you with a kernel, currently beta, with minimal support (I don't have a Zio).
Use at your own risk! I, nor anyone else is responsible for damage done from, or to your device. Your device may become unstable. Your cat may marry your dog, and your gerbil may elope with your daughter or son. This is not my fault.
Features
2.6.32.9 source built
overclocked to 748mhz
lowmemkiller driver patches and tweaks
Boots at stock 600mhz speed. You must use setcpu to overclock.
sdcard read speed tweak
init.d support
smartass and interactive governors.
bfq i/o scheduler added and set as default.
kernel is pre-rooted, and will start usb debugging by default.
swap support
Download URL:
http://www.multiupload.com/2GQA0JD1VS
How to install:
Download file, place on sdcard, boot clockwrok recovery and flash.
Please note: I am trying to upload source to a mercurial repo, but it is having issues. I have a trouble ticket in with bitbucket. The source is too big to upload to github for free. If I do not hear back from them, I will tarball the source and upload it that way.
Thanks:
Every single soul in IRC #openzio who broke their phones testing stuff for me
Thanks. Testing now.

OK I flashed the Kernel and I am stuck at the Kyocera splash screen. Dont understand why its not booting up.
For those that cannot boot this, SPz0 has a more stable version that he will be releasing with his rom.
729mhz seems to be the most stable clockspeed for this device.
for those that are wondering, the smartass governor eliminates the need for a "screen off" profile by automatically capping the CPU speed when the screen is off/phone goes to sleep.
More info.
Smartass will also cap the max frequency when sleeping to 352Mhz (or if your min frequency is higher than 352 – why?! – it will cap it to your min frequency). Lets take for example the 528/176 kernel, it will sleep at 352/176. No need for sleep profiles any more!

In other words, SetCPU would only be needed to OC (or use the Overclock widget, whatever floats your cookies).
So this kernel is ready to use or wait? A little confused from your post.

Great job man, and much thanks from all of us Zio owners for your time and effort, thanks Adrynalyne!
Any reason anyone can think of why or what in the kernel would cause 2d graphics to choke out so bad? I was scoring 110-120 prior to OCing, and now 2d is scoring 70 if I'm lucky. Any thoughts or ideas?
I thought this device could run at 800mhz??? I thought wrong. Cheap cpu they are using.

OnTopic:
749Mhz ran flawless for me. It seems to be random on who 749mhz freezes with.
@sinisin: did you flash 749oc with the openzio rom?
My ROM has Adrynalyne's stable 729Mhz overclock for those interested.
Hey Adrynalyne:
Think I could grab an 800Mhz OC from you at some point? I really wanna push the boundaries of this cpu.
Just a straight step from 748 to 800Mhz would be sufficient.
I want to see if I can get it to run stable @ 800Mhz.
I think that would need some voltage tweaks to reach 800mhz

All the cool kids have cricket
Cricket users are lucky to have any development, my roommates told me there wouldn't be any Dev's interested in the ZIO. I think the main issue you're encountering is any Dev who has the droid options available on sprint, is not going to choose the ZIO for their personal phone or development. You're best bet is to start reading like crazy and head the development of the sprint side of things yourself or upgrade to a phone that has active development.

I prefer either System Tuner or ROM Toolbox. Both are worth donating a few bucks to get the pro versions. Allows you to do a lot of customization to your ROM. I don't tweak anything on my Touchpad other than CPU, but works great for my phone(s).
i came here because of the same problem i was having. I tried No frills as stated earlier, and it works great, my problem solved.
