According to the article and the Dev's twitter account he hasn't released anything yet. He has a twitpic of SetCpu with the Overclock showing.
According to Phandroid the dev is legit and trustworthy so it is a real pic.
His twitter account has some details on how he performed the OC.
Just noticed this but the Dev is actually the creator of SetCPU
I've never had luck with overclocking a phone for daily use. I wonder if he could do a similar module for undervolting.

From what I understand the EVO processor is a 1.5 GHz processor that is underclocked to 1.2 GHz.
2.0+ GHz overclock isn't out of the realm of possibility.
I'll wait until it hits 2Ghz stable.
Really looking forward to seeing where this goes. Thanks for posting, bparvin!

No problem. I thought this would interest people. It's better than the "Why I am returning my Evo..." threads.
Could it be possible for it to force both cores to run at the same speed? I believe that this is also a reason why benchmarks arent so colorful since its a async dual core cpu so one core might be at full speed but the other one is on a lower clock speed unlike the rest where both cores run at the same speed always...

You can't flash kernels without an unlocked bootloader. If you have unlocked bootloader and CWM, you can flash either edgan's or faux's both of them work as I have tested them personally on my phone.
I plan to unlock it using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182871
Can you direct me to the kernel thread? and which would you recommend using? thanks!

Installing isn't hard, you just flash them via CWM. Faux's thread has more replised so perhaps his kernel is more popular. You can try both and decide for yourself. But I think you need to wipe after each installation to avoid problems.

I thought I had installed CWM when I rooted again from that previous thread, but it didn't. Is there a specific thread for the CWM download? Thanks again!
Edit: Apparently I did have CWM installed? I booted into Android Recovery and it had the same options I used to root from the other thread? said Atrix 4g [version] goapk.com
im guessing thats CWM?
Yes, it is.
Edit:
In my opinion, the greater benefit of having one of these kernels loaded is the ability to extend battery life by using setcpu to do things like underclock when the screen is off, and such. As for speed, I get quadrant scores in the 3500s, ymmv.

Yep, thats CWM. Download the correct kernel (d00 or 1100), put it onto your SD card, reboot into CWM, select "install a file from zip" or something like that, select your SD card, select zip, confirm installation.
After that reboot. If you have issues -> wipe data and reboot again.

Quadrant scores are awesome for boosting self esteem, but from what I use,- it didn't translate into real life performance increase

Faux has a bunch of different versions of his kernel with built in profiles. Besides that I haven't seen a list of standalone profiles. You can always make your own one I guess as long as you don't OC to 2.0 ghz

I thought the 1.2ghz was released already, but oh well... You can always set your own profiles, just remember to downclock based on CPU temperature.
If CPU heats up > 50 C - downclock back to 1ghz for example.

Yea, i just made 1 profile to downclock it back down to 1Ghz with Min 216Mhz at 50 C for temp. Priority 99.
Do you have any good profiles for battery management with this kernel? I couldn't find any around and the ones that are around are for the stock kernel.

I don't use OC at the moment, but for batter management it's basically -
screen off = lowest CPU clock
battery < 30% = 1000 or 800 or whatever you feel necessary.

I just lurked around the old SetCPU threads and got some ideas. Lowest I'll run is 750 when not screen off or charging, apparently thats the lowest it can run without being laggy.
So I have the SetCPU running. I also have CPU Benchmark. It gives me two numbers each time I run the test one at 1100 and one at 1000. Is that because one core is set higher than the other? If so, is there a way to set both cores running at 1100? Thanks.
Don't post questions in development, but yea set CPU only overclockes core 0 only, not both core 0 and core 1.
Roger that. I'll keep that in mind for future reference. Is there a way to overclock both?
I thought I read that someone over in 3d forums worked up a special kernel to fully utilize both cores. This was on a snapdragon of course.

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised. Oh well. I'm happy with what we got. It made my phone more snappy, so I'm super stoked.

Kinda, freeza made a kernel that supposed to do that, but its sort of unstable and lags on some phones, I tried it and didn't like it. He did recently update it so it maybe fixed. SetCPU is coded for one core, some people posted logcats and confirmed it. Far as I know, emails were sent to the dev so that hes aware of it. So until there's an update in the app its going to stay that way weather a kernel allows it or not.
Thanks, That's all the info I needed. Appreciate it.
That dev's really good. Hopefully he will update it soon. Been using setcpu since the g1 and mytouch days.
So if Setcpu only controls one core, is it worth using on the photon?
So I have been looking at some of the other programs they have for overclocking. And so far none of them seem to support overclocking a dual core. Any ideas on if there is going to be an update released to support this? Or are we gonna have to just wait for another program? Thanks in advance.

I think you need a custom kernel for that, which are not available for the Photon yet.
We have the custom kernal for the overclock thanks to Shabby. But I'm just curious if we have a program that will overclock both cores? Or perhaps the kernal is only for single core?
I haven't been able to find any overclock apps for dual core yet.
Okay. And one other question. I think I know the answer, but I'll ask. With the kernal release for overclock. That will limit the speed which you can clock it to correct? Meaning the max speed.
You mean underclock? Like only allow the CPU to run at 512 MHz for example? We can already do that with root.
Overclock is raising the Max speed of the CPU, the stock kernel only allows 1 ghz, but a custom kernel can allow higher speeds.
Dual core phones just hit the market, there will be tons of apps supporting that sooner than you might think. And I bet shabby will get us a lot higher than 1.1 - I bet we could get closer to 1.6 with this thing. i would hope so anyways!
I will take the first dive at trying it! lol
-DJ
SetCPU supports the tegra2 for under clocking, over clocking, and under volting. I currently run an Atrix over clocked to 1.3GHz and under vloted.
Also, your kernel must support it.
That's what I was trying to ask. Does our kernal only support the 1.1 ghz? I'm happy with it, just curious. And that's what I'm trying to find out. Also, how does I undervolt my CPU?
Im willing to bet when more custom kernels roll out this thing will be able to overclock each core to abt 1.4 or 1.5ghz! I wouldn't do it though....im an undervolt kind of guy myself.

Not bad. My lappy is an i5 mackbook pro and i built a pretty sweet desktop if i need the power.
ive tried every rom/kernal combination and with each i get lock ups when doing intensive cpu work such as a game or benchmark overclocked to 1.6 any ideas? Thanks
Just means your processor was built a little weak. Its only built to run at 1.2ghz so anything above that is pushing it hard... some phones can be oc'd that much, some can't. Just take it down to 1.4. I can't even get mine to 1.4 so he thankful
Sent from my AT&T cellular device.
What voltage do you have it at? Try raising it 25mV at a time stressing you cpu at each step until you're stable. That is if you are determined to run 1.6 and i would not push more than +100mV personally.

I do not think entropy is the one who has issues...
This has been discussed in 10 different threads already and in great detail. If the OP did as much as search he would of have found the answer himself. That is why they call it research
the only question left is...... You mad bro?
Keep all voltages stock, then use voltage congrol and click on 1400 and increment the slider+ 25, then do the same for 1600. This is what i had to do to get my phone stable at 1.6 Some phones may need EXTRA voltage and others need less. It takes some testing to get your particular phone stable at anything over 1.2Ghz. I only did it to see if I saw any gains. Actually for me and my phone I found as far as MY SETUP and testing many different benchmark style apps at 1.4Ghz i got better benchmarks than i did at 1.6Ghz. Now everyones phones will act sligbtly different so your mileage may vary.

At 1.6 ghz... your phone will be discharging your battery ON your charger... I personally wouldn't recommend doing it as it gets the phone really hot, and causes the chip lots of stress due to high heat. Personally if you need more performance (this phones pretty damn fast anyways) go to 1.4ghz.
Most of our phones can be overclocked to 1.4 and some can go to 1.6 but not all. If you change the voltages and it still craps out, then take it down a notch to 1.4 and see how that works for you.

Now now. Since when do we encourage keeping things stock.
My point is - if it were guaranteed to hit 1.6, it would be sold as 1.6.
Being able to hit 1.6 is luck of the draw, pure and simple.
There's a reason:
1) OC is not default on my kernel
2) I held off on providing OC support for a while here, and NEVER released it on Infuse (users weren't mature enough to handle it over there)
3) I have a warning in GIANT RED LETTERS not to complain about OC stability issues on my kernel thread.

This is all true... but the OP was simply asking a question now lets all play nice.
We should have an OC that allows n00bs to melt their cpu.... 2.5ghz ftw
No no no.... We have too many "I tried to load the ICS in the I9100 forums, and I bricked my phone, please help!" threads. we don't need "I OC'ed my phone to 8ghz and melted my cpu" threads too
Tegrak allows you to go past 1.6. I thought these CPU were locked @ 1.6 but i had to up my voltage at 1.7 and i got a small bump in my benches though i probably did run my test enough to confirm the bump. At so.e point, when i get some time ill beat on my CPU some more

I ran my phone at 1.6 for days just to see performance. No UV at all.. battery certainly drained faster, but not while charging. It charged just fine.. and stayed cool even when stressing. Like many have stated, all CPU's are slightly different .. just cause yours melts at 1.6 and wont charge doesn't mean this will happen for anyone trying to run 1.6GHz.
sent from my SGSII... suckas
Try bumpin' up the voltage 1-2 notches.
Just to add to the stats...
I've been able to run @ 1.4 with the same voltage as 1.2, but my phone will freeze once in a while when running apps like camera or navigation. Had to bump the voltage up slightly to get it stable, though I will likely just run 1.2.
I cannot run at 1.6.

Try changing or updating your kernel. Im the OP and had the same problems. with the new siyah kernel at 1.6 even if i try i cant make it lock up or freeze.
Your processor was made from a different silicon wafer than other people's phones and was rated for 1.2ghz.
Since each wafer is different, some processors take voltage better than others as well as speed. It happens.

Hi, thanks, as I said, it takes more than editing the kernel graphics software layer platform data , that was not overclocking lol!
Wow, great work dev! This is incredibly awesome, especially for us Jellybean users who could use every bump in performance possible. After a lot of hard work, I finally have my 4.1.2 r800x on Paranoid Android at in AnTuTu. I can't wait to see what increases I yield with the 2D overclock and ESPECIALLY the 3D overclock. Please, oh please, try and get 3D overclocking implemented successfully. You will be a god-send to many of us Xperia Play users. While an old device, its purpose built and many of us still use it daily as a phone if not simply for an advanced gaming device. Expect a donation your way soon. I'm not sure if this falls on you or kernel developers but please make sure CDMA users aren't left outside the gate. We miss far too much in what's already a small development scene and I'm afraid this is something we simply cant afford to miss. Thanks again for your hard work. Keep it up!
On a side note, Turbo Kernel is no longer in development. Would you or anyone else be willing to patch these changes and compile the source for us still using the kernel? It's the best kernel I tested that works irregardless of phone or software version.

Hi, thanks, as I said, it takes more than editing the kernel graphics software layer platform data , that was not overclocking lol!

it does work because many devs that have included in their kernel have taken it out and if u push your min clock speed to 245MHz its an immediate GPU over clock but.it has many side effects

Wow, great work dev! This is incredibly awesome, especially for us Jellybean users who could use every bump in performance possible. After a lot of hard work, I finally have my 4.1.2 r800x on Paranoid Android at in AnTuTu. I can't wait to see what increases I yield with the 2D overclock and ESPECIALLY the 3D overclock. Please, oh please, try and get 3D overclocking implemented successfully. You will be a god-send to many of us Xperia Play users. While an old device, its purpose built and many of us still use it daily as a phone if not simply for an advanced gaming device. Expect a donation your way soon.

It falls on kernel developers as I have released the source, GPU OC isn't GSM specific so CDMA users sure will get it .
I usually release kernel before source code but due to my slow PC & Laptop, and I only have net access on the slow laptop I released source code first, cause kernel compiling for me is time consuming, when I do get more time, I sure will pull and compile that kernel for you

hahaha I've requested multiple times evidence and you have failed to provide it, if you believe that was GPU OC please flash that kernel with those changes with debug file system enabled and show me the graphics clocks, if you simply cannot provide evidence I will start reporting your posts as troll posts, thank you
EDIT: I have simply done the job for you

take your time to read the comments within that commit
I don't have my play ATM
but if you ask one of the users using my dxengine extreme or fast editions they will be able to provide for you
we havent working 3.x kernel. so this thread is useless.
better if you make this for 2.6.x kernels, and with antutu cpu master's GPU control support.

You dont have a working 3.0?!? Didnt expect that, no problem ill create a kernel patch for k2.x
Its the 2d-core OC only at the moment at 245mhz there isnt any need for GPU control support
"300mhz+ ... " You said. Well you man are awesome if u make that happen! If you need tester or anything i'll test anything with pleasure ! I see you have double thanks than posts so I'm sure you're good so good luck !!

Yeah plus I think I can make it more battery efficient without it affecting performance anywayz whats the codename for xperia play? Test compiling 2.6 turbo kernel

R800i is GSM
R800x is CDMA
R800a i don't know
R800at i think is at&t's 4G variant.
Is it zeus? Pheonix? Ayame? Iyokan? Haida? Anzu? Hallon?

Cheers, compiling kernel now check the sys/kernel/debug/clk/grp_2d_clk if its running @ 245mhz
