I just tried OmapClock and have to say its a pretty neat little program. I've managed to clock up to 204 mhz and it seems very stable.

[lescargot]

I get I/O error when i try to run it.  My C500 is application unlocked (by Orange and hav also tried the reg edit method with sim unlock).  Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Nope, i hav an smt5600 with a sp3 rom, errthing unlocked. I can only run the program man, not troubleshoot, sorry.

[kevinsephiroth]

I get that too...


James - I'm not trying to overclock for the sake of it. I honestly believe that the C500 doesn't have enough processing power to do everything it should. I mainly use it for music, calls and texts, and quite often, the music will "chug" for a few seconds after changing tracks.

[Mr.Clark]

I've fixed the I/O error thing.

I flashed to the i-mate ROM (because I wanted to get rid of the Orange bloat, not as a possible fix) and got the same error. Then I ran SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe (here) and it seems to be running. I have no way of benchmarking it though...

I got C500 with OmapOMAP730 WM2005, at 180mhz with JBenchmark I got 6240 points, at 192mhz that is the official maximum I got 6849 points , at 204Mhz I got 7253 points.This is about 1000 points more  
At 216MHz - 7904 points. If you want to "fry" your phone as they say try more...

216Mhz is Ok

[motorolampx200]

I got the same problem with I/O (phone was unlocked?) but after running the unlock tool everything worked.

Hi,
new to this. As this appears to be command line only, where do you put the command?
thx

So, no-one can tell me how to get this to run automatically at startup (and pass it parameters)?

You'd have to run it every time you use the phone.  Check out TornadoPowerControl as an automated way to do this.

Going round in circles here - that has command line arguments as well, which is what prompted my question!

Luckily there was a keyword there that moved me in the right direction and I have now solved the problem.

OK, I've now got it to start up when I switch on my phone.
How do I keep the clock set to 216mhz?
It keeps going back to the default setting (180).
Is this intentional or is it maybe something to with the Autokeylock program I'm running?
thx

Umm... didn't this answer your question already?

Does exist any similar application for the typhoon? I have an i-mate SP3 and I can't keep the clock to a higher speed, as it goes back to the default setting when the screen turns off.

[genaldar]

I've read either on here or on howard how you can get it to run and set the speed everytime you start up (or come back from powersave mode or whatever).  But to be honest it's probably not the best idea.  If your phone locks up because you overclocked too far and then you reboot and it returns to the same speed it will just loop.  Turn on, overclock, overheat, shutdown, turn on, overclock, overheat, shutdown, etc.  And even if you think you've found a stable speed you can't really be sure how it affects your phone if it runs at that speed for hours on end.  Personally I just got in the habit of bumping up the clock right after I startup.
