OVERCLOCKING LEADS TO MEMORY LEAKS AND CAN BE SEVERE IN SOME CASES.PLEASE OVERCLOCK AT YOUR OWN RISKS

I have tried Overclocking my Opal 100 at various clockspeeds on a WM6.5 ROM,Build 21889..but i seem to NOT have got the correct clockspeed coz i am experiencing frequent problems with my ROM.Current clockspeed is set to 264MHz,but the program memory shoots up when the device escalates in tym after a soft reset....Any 1 having overclocked his device and is HAPPY with the feedback Opal is giving,please mention the clockspeed with the current ROM version...thanks.:(

Device has been overclocked with OMAP CLOCK PLUS...here's the link if any1 needs to test it...{If you want to overclock your Viva, download the cab file from here:

I'm stable @ 252 MHz with Jagan's Evo2 ROM for 2 months now!

However, I'll try to run it @ 264 MHz to get rid of the camera noise problem. I will reply to this thread with the results. I won't test it at 276 MHz, at least not in the summer anyway! :P

Please if you overclock your device, tell us the speed and the program you're using.

What ROM r u using?
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] pajerm:
I'm using my rom but I used successfully omapclockkeep at 276MHz in evolution 2....
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] shaffaf:
@276 THE noise problem is reduced ....however sometimes theres a green strip @ side of screen but its better than 264
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] karthiksk:
What kinda of performance difference do you see at 276 as compared to normal clock speed in evo 2?
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] Shreyas Jani:
People are adventurous...well,not much difference is noted,but it does,to some extent i believe increase the speed of the cpu...

[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] GFX:
I finally found some courage to test my device @ 276 MHz. The test was successful so far, no problems, and no excess heat. And the camera problem is gone.

At this frequency I can actually feel the performance difference, as the device becomes more responsive and fluid.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] jigar2speed5095:
Just tried the 276MHZ. VIVA become super fasts... Everything is very sippy. Nice, thanks for the help. I am with default OS ;)
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] shaffaf:
:P

told ya guys ..have some guts to try out things next time :p....and also i tried out thps2 and also call of duty 2 :)
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] shaffaf:
also

i think we can increase the camera frame rate by some tweaking..devs can consider trying it out and helping our opal cameras

320mhz unstable ... When trying to play music it crashes or else it fit and fine.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] Shreyas Jani:
U want to brick ur device???or want to burn it???overclocking heats the cpu...better be carefull and donot exceed 275MHz....Request.:mad:
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] Shreyas Jani:
Is this the correct way????

Well,i have tried overclocking my device, now i dont know if am on the right path......well,i use OMAP to overclock it and i am attaching sum pictures so that members can correct me as and wen possible....Please have a look at the attached images and provide a feedback....thanks in adv.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] jigar2speed5095:
Nope, it's fine, (Infact now it is staying fine at that clock) i wanted to see if this can be done or not. Next project - shifting to hardware overclocking, lets see if the viva's PCB can take some shots or not. I'll update you guys about it.

[B]Does it Really Work???[/B]

Well,now,i am having my device being overclocked at 300 MHz,on the stock ROM.But sincerely,i dont think if it is working or not.There is no virtual difference with the processes taking place.What i am more concerned is the Memory leak.havent faced it as yet,but will put the results finally...
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] illass:
I'm using EVO2. Overclock it to 276... everything works superfast... no problem at this moment. SPB MS 3.5 works better then ever.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] SquallLTT:
i'm running at 286Mhz with pocket hack master

run well so far :D
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] illass:
So... i overclock my VIVA, but after locking my device it is returning to 186, why?

How long it is working? What i have to do? I want it running always on 276MHz. Maybe it coz i have lock device tool? Or it is running till screen off? :confused:
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] Shreyas Jani:
What app are u using???refer my post where i have attached the pics and dn follow the procedure....for more info,visit various links posted in this thread.

When i run on 276 everything works perfectly ... while watching a movie with Core Player device starts to distribute sounds strange! After restart, the most returning to their seats
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] Shreyas Jani:
m glad core player works on ur dev.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] _spiritus_infernus_:
I use 252 and 264 MHz. 252 - Standby, 264 - in active use. Anything above that - sends a soft reset. In general, normal flight :-) Unlike the same Pocket Hack Master, who rate that is higher than the face value (201 MHz) hangs Opal tight.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] Shreyas Jani:
Anyone above.....

well,out of curiosity want to ask if anyone tried overclocking above 300MHz??We have reports on 320MHz but it not that stable as some apps don't work fine with that clockspeed...still waiting for answers!!!:)
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] karthiksk:
I have overclocked it 300Mhz once. (accidentally, finger slipped). seemed pretty stable, everything worked fine, but i did downclock it again, cause I just felt a lil insecure. I dint face any problems whatsoever though.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] Shreyas Jani:
Overclocked-Over 288

Alryt,this is to inform the members,the developers that Opal can successfully withstand a 288MHz processor speed...Stock rom was tested and it gave perfect results...any1 seeking adventure on opal can go towards 288MHz...But at your own risk again..

P.S. I dont use internet and wi-fi on the device..the device is bugged with a considerate memory leak...so users may test at their own risk and post comments here,if any.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] karthiksk:
Definately gonna give this baby a shot.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] Shreyas Jani:
288 MHz...

288 works good for me....the device is not facing any MEMORY LEAKS..:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] Shreyas Jani:
Reports for 300MHz on Stock ROM

Well,i tried 300MHz speed on the stock ROM and have found evrything working well...there are some dissapointments but they can be ignored considering the fact that the device performs extremely well at the said clock speed...although it may sometimes soft reset itself on its own,not to worry on that coz the system is trying to clear the memory leak if any...best of luck!!!But 288 is what i am gonna stick to!!!

Opal 120

Running Evo Ultimate Beta. Tried over clocking it to 276 & it froze & then wouldn't boot up. Had to hard reset in the end! Didn't realise at the time but found out I have an Opal 120 (T-Mobile MDA Basic), not an Opal 100! Guess that's why it froze:o!!! Anyone else had any luck over clocking an Opal 120?? Thanks

doubts on overclocking

hello all: nice comments on the forum and nice try for all who have overclocked..

i have a few queries...

1) the normal speed is 201 mhz, if i overclock it lets say 285 mhz, will it have a damage on my processor or atleast considerable damage in future?

2) what are alll the other problems i would face overclocking it to 285 mhz( im using jagan's evo 2.5a)?

3) shreyas had mentioned someting called as memory leak in his device. what is memory leak????
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] Shreyas Jani:
Answers from -SHR-

1) Yes,it may damage your processor considering the fact that how frequently you keep changing the values.Stick to a standard clock speed....276 is recommended.

2)Not much problems....Evo2 doesn't need overclocking until you need the device to be devastatingly fast...Go for the Stock ROM and may be you can overclock over there...

3)Memory leak refers to sudden usage/blockage of the RAM on the device where actually no application is running,but the device uses a lot of memory causing a slowdown or tremendous pressure on the ROM to process things...Not all ROM's suffer Memory leaks...It is a frustrating experience...Although,I'd recommend that you better don't overclock...

hello!

i am looking for an usb2vga-adapter with drivers for wm6.5, because i like to connect my tg01 to a tft-display via the usb-host-cable. i know that it is possible with android-phones like the nexus one, look at:

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=694427

i was able to find only one usb2vga-adapter which supports win ce:

startech.com/Data/ProductManuals/USB2VGAE.pdf

unfortunately this startech-adapter isn't available in europe, so i cannot test it on my tg01...

maybe someone has a usb2vga-adapter and can connect it to the tg01? maybe it works with the usb2vgae-driver? you can download this driver from startech.com, it is the trigger.cab-file

thanx for any helpful information, alex
[TG01 General] Pere:
I read that you have already asked to the developer for Tg01 use:

Q: is it possible to use this on a windows-mobile phone with usb-host-function like the tg01? i am desperately looking for a usb2vga-adapter which works with Wm6.5...

A: You'd have to port libtubecable.

What the hell is a libtubcable? Please keep on asking to this guy , it sounds VERY interesting. One of the TG01 limitations is the missing TV out: But this would be even better!!!.

Good luck! I mark this thread with five stars
[TG01 General] Pere:
I've just browsed your link to a USB to VGA device. The only one with Windows CE drivers is (was) this one:

http://www.startech.com/item/USB2VGAE-USB-VGA-Mini-External-Monitor-Video-Adapter.aspx

".....USB2VGAE differs from other USB to VGA adapters because it is compact and offers Windows CE support for custom or embedded applications..."

But unfortunately it seems that it has been discontinued. And....Oh oh... the new one doesn't have this feature.....bad news...

http://www.startech.com/item/USB2VGAE2-USB-VGA-External-Multi-Monitor-Video-Adapter.aspx

"...OS Compatibility	Windows 2000/ XP(32/64bit)/ Vista(32/64bit)/ 7(32/64bit); Drivers are WHQL certified ..."

I'm going to ask them for Windows CE drivers for the new one. OK? Stay tuned...
[TG01 General] cbfalex:
yes, unfortunately the new adapter from startech doesn't support windows ce and the old one isn't avalaible in europe.

thank you very much that you ask them for windows ce drivers!

and what is about the idea to create a driver for windows mobile, like someone has done for his android-phone nexus one: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=694427

i am afraid that it is easier to create drivers for android than for windows mobile, isn't it?

thanx, alex
[TG01 General] Pere:
I've just received the answer which confirms the previously said:

Dear Pere:

Thank you for your inquiry! Unfortunately the USB2VGAE2 no longer supports Windows CE. The new model has been enhanced to support Windows 7 and the Aero Theme.

If you have any further questions, please contact us.

Damn!

Received from other feasible supplier:

Bernie Thompson, an employee of Plugable Technology, replied to What about Windows CE drivers?, a question about Plugable Technology.

Hi - Thanks for your question! Unfortunately, there is no support for Windows CE for any of the DisplayLink-based products.

A little more detail: There are open source drivers for DisplayLink chips and Plugable's devices on Linux and BSD - which is why there is action happening on Android phones right now. And there have been people who have looked at WinCE in the past -- so it's certainly possible someone could go and develop some kind of Win CE drivers. But the Windows CE market, as big as it is, is not big enough to support the very significant initial and ongoing cost of a maintaining a working driver, especially a USB graphics driver running on varied platforms.

If there was a Windows CE company (Microsoft, or one of its OEMs) who could justify a multi-$100K investment spread over several years, that would likely make it possible to find someone to do this kind of work. Or Microsoft certainly could do the work themselves. But neither scenario seems likely at this point, unfortunately. Sorry.

Thank you for the question, though!

onlineshops which sell the usb2vgae-adapter

today i found out that there are shops which sell the usb2vgae-adapter, it is called "manhattan usb to svga-converter":

zapsonline.com/vga-inter/40404-manhattan-usb-to-svga-converter-es179119.html

quite the same adapter, but according to the description without wince-support is available here:

conrad-international.com/USB-to-VGA-Converter-'Manhattan'.htm?websale7=conrad-int&pi=871540&ci=SHOP_AREA_17695_0414053

(please add "www.", i am not allowed to post URLs...)

is there someone who will order the adapter and try it with the tg01?

i already tried this one but unfortunately it did not work:

conrad.at/ce/de/product/871540/MANHATTEN-USB-AUF-VGA-KONVERTER

the tg01 only told me: "new usb-hardware found, please type in the name of the driver", although i installed the trigger.cab-driverfile from startech-website first. it told me after the installation: "installation successful. the software you installed was created for a previous version of windows mobile and my not function properly". do i have to install wince on my tg01 to test this adapter or what?

if not, i found this:

mobiliparts.com/en/toshiba/tg01/carte-microsd-sortie-video-sdv-842-de-spectec

it is a vga-out-adapter for the micro-sd-slot. spectec also provides drivers for wm6.

will this work with the tg01? does the tg01-micro-sd-slot support SDIO-protocol?

amazon sell it for only 39 dollars:

the problem is that i am on holidays from 15.07.2010 until 15.08.2010, so i cannot test it on myself.

[TG01 General] roykaandorp:
How will you ever connect them?
[TG01 General] nicolas.maigne:
hello,

i think that the old usb2vgae should work, maybe with a little modification of the driver.

the microsd 2 vga may cause a problem because its location is under the battery.

the redfly is an other solution that is working. i saw some video on youtube with the t01a.

finally a good solution will be if the developement under android and unbuntu is sucessfull. Indeed on nexus one and hd2 some drivers exist for usb2vga adapter when unbuntu is loaded.
[TG01 General] kevinpwhite:
Experiments to date suggest that the uUSB port is not configured to output a video capable data stream, but I'm very interested in any specifics you can suggest ?

Yes - in principle the uSD approach should be capable of working but the physical configuration means it is impossible to fit the adapter to a TG01. One possibility I have considered is to make an extension adapter allowing the SD port to be brought out to a more accessible location. However this means you then cannot use the memory card at the same time which makes the whole thing too cumbersome.

Can you provide any further details on this 'redfly' approach ?
[TG01 General] Pere:
You can search on Youtube page "redfly".There are some videos there. The idea is original (a big 7" screen and a full keyboard together)but regarding video out it seems that is ok for static image (pictures, power point and so on, but real video doesn't work.
[TG01 General] kevinpwhite:
Thanks for that Pere... I've had a look at a couple of those videos now and can see what it's about. Appears very similar in practice to the Pocket Controller Pro desktop application I use for remote control of the pocket pc over USB. But with benefit of upward scaleability for some WM apps onto the Redfly 'netbook' type device.

Unfortunately, I suspect will be fundamentally limited in the same way as Pocket Controller Pro in that it can't push enough data to run a live video feed - PCP is absolutely fine for static screen images and something like a photo viewer slide show but can't cope with displaying any video from eg. Core Player. The app itself shows OK, but the video window just appears as a black rectangle within it.

A real shame, but so far, the nearest likely possibility is that uSD adapter a few posts back, if there could be a way of overcoming the physical connection issues.
[TG01 General] Pere:
Yes Kevin, I'm also a user of Pocket Controller (by Wifi, I have Activesync problems with TG01...) and I suppose that Redfly is a kind of similar application.

It's a pity that TG01 does' have VGA or at least video out....

-ooops posted that I bought the yx500-cel, but I actually just checked it and it's a YX510, compatible with GSM or CDMA.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Sirchuk:
For the price, why not just pick up an Airave? It works with your home WiFi connection to give you 100% signal around your home. For I think $5 a month, you can also make unlimited calls while your at home through the Airave. It's Sprint only, and only from a Sprint store, but it's a heck of a lot cheaper.

I would rather go that route ($100+$5/month for 2 years is still less than $250.)
