CURRENT VERSION IS v2.0
I used the work of Coolbho3000 from the G2 thread to do most of this, so I am crediting him here for his work.
Download stock kernel to revert back!
This kernel is only good for the stock shipping ROM and Iced Glacier.
Unzip the zImage and bcm4329.ko file.
In terminal Type: adb reboot bootloader,
Then: fastboot flash zimage /path/to/zImage
Then: fastboot reboot
Now just like in the G2 thread, your wifi will be broken, so following the instructions from that thread:
adb push bcm4329.ko /sdcard/bcm4329.ko
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system
cat /sdcard/bcm4329.ko > /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
Now your wifi will work.
I just uploaded a script that you can use with Gscript (get it in the market). If you copy the bcm4329.ko to the root of your sd card and run my script it will load the wifi module and fix your wifi.
Make a folder on your sd card called: gscript. Download my script and put it in this folder. Download gscript lite or paid from the market. open the app, click menu, add script. choose the wifi_driver_gscript, click load file. All you do now is open gscript and click the script, it runs very fast and fixes your wifi!
You still have to fastboot flash the zImage. For now anyway.
As usual I am not responsible if your phone breaks!
Enjoy the Overclock!!!!
Remember Everyone's silicon is not equal. Some will do great all way up to the top. Others will lock and freeze and have to scale the freq. down!
Source code here on Github
There is a donate link in signature if you appreciate my work.
If you haven't already, get a copy of SetCPU from the market to thank Coolbho3000 for all of his work. Without him we would not be overclocking like we do today!

Kernels are on my site. AS of now you must get the proper Kernel for your ROM. There is a Stock kernel that should work on everything except CM. The CM kernel only works on CM. They both have the same Voltage's and Frequencies. Come to my Site and go to the Kernels Page and get them NOW!
Gorilla Development Site
Release Version 2.0 Come and get it here
Change Log is now on my site.
Latest Kernel based off of HTC source.
Not in Update.zip format yet.
Will upload update.zip version shortly.
Version-Beta-1.02
Get it here!
-Now built from CM source (Let me know if it breaks your video playback)
-Changed frequency steps
-Tweaked Voltages for stability
-BFQ Scheduler
-Interactive Governor added
-O2 level compiler optimizations
-set to 806400 on boot
-Voltages at low end are lowered - high end raised (battery life should be good at around 1ghz or lower)
-Update.zip format
Thank zebrapositions for the Update.zips! Get Update.zip Here!
You can get my kernel in the TeamSilence Rom.
Gorilla-Kernel-betaV1.0
This kernel is Undervolted. The values are based off of Pershoot's Undervolt Values for the G2.
Max clock is 1.600ghz Max voltage is 1275.
This kernel boots at 806mhz.
Gorilla-kernel-betaV05
This is much closer to the original voltages. The lowered voltages were causing too many freezes. The phone needs the Juice apparently. You can ramp this kernel all the way to max freq. without freezing (I can anyway).
The highest Freq. 1.7ghz may not work for everyone. Since it boots at 1.113 if it freezes up you can just pull the battery and reboot and then top your clock out at 1.6ghz.
Gorilla-Kernel-betav002
CFQ instead of deadline.
EXT4 support
Conservative Governor.
Max clock speed 1.612Ghz.
Set to 1113600 on boot.
Amazing , I don't even have the device and I'm thankful!
I hereby proclaim my love for you....both for bringing something new to us MT4G users, and being one of the few people to start doing things for this community.
Link?
Do u have to have a custom rom to overclock or just a rooted phone and then overclock it. Bec i am going to wait for good roms. I just want to overclock it.
Wow.I'm so stoked..I will be doing this tomorrow for sure! Thank you!

These are the modifications, they are the same as the ones in the Coolbh3000 mods for the G2. I put in the freq all the way to 1.7 where he commented them out on his G2 Kernel.
My source is loading to Git now. I am also going to post a stock kernel with the wifi module so folks have it revert back too.

Thanks for your work on this kernel, it is much appreciated!
Anyway you can make this into a flashable zip?
flashed and profiles work, only has userspace...ondemand...performance governers. 56+ mflops in linpack, 2700 quadrant, phones getting a little hot we'll see how temp holds. I may have to revert back to kingxklick modules atr 1.5ghz.
how did you get the kernel to be stable on the MT4G i flashed mine and it locks up so i reverted back to the kingklicks 1.5... is there any special things you did to install this kernel?

could be the freq is too high for all phones. I am compiling a version now with a few minor tweaks, and clocked to 1.6ghz. This new kernel will also set itself to 1113600 on boot for safety.
cool thats like it'll work better anyways... 1.7 just seems like alittle much this soon in development lol

I haven't been able to get the Koush anykernel updater working with this yet. If I do I will certainly post a flashable version for everyone.
Please do not flash this on the WiFi only Xoom yet. An update will be coming. In the meantime, you can just recompile the source from my github and it should work on the WiFi only Xoom.
I have successfully brought the Tegra 2 in the Xoom to 1.5GHz. A few kernel modifications make the dual core chip in the Xoom even more powerful than the recently announced Tegra 2 3D! 1.5GHz through two Cortex A9 cores is truly a force to be reckoned with.
2/28: Applied L2 prefetching patch. This increases Linpack to about 63 MFLOPS @ 1.5GHz. Flash the kernel and push the wifi module again: http://www.setcpu.com/files/xoom_ocboot_v2.zip (thanks ccfries for the heads up!!!)
Instructions:
1. Make sure you've unlocked your Xoom's bootloader for flashing first, then root it.
2. Grab this zip and extract it. It includes a boot.img with the overclocked kernel and a corresponding wifi module: http://www.setcpu.com/files/xoom_ocboot_v2.zip. Thanks to Koush for the rooted ramdisk in this boot.img!
3. Reboot into the bootloader by running:
adb reboot bootloader
4. Flash the boot image to your boot partition, then boot back into Android by running:
fastboot flash boot xoom_ocboot.img
fastboot reboot
5. Push the bcm4329.ko to your /system/lib/modules folder and reboot to re-enable wifi:
adb remount
adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
adb reboot
The usual disclaimers apply here. Only do this if you know what you're doing. Though the long term stability/reliability of similar overclocks on other Android based ARM devices is known, this software is provided with no warranty, and I can't be held responsible if you fry your Xoom or anything.
The kernel defaults to 1GHz max for safety, and also includes 1.2GHz and 1.4GHz steps in addition to the 1.504GHz step. I've also updated SetCPU to support the Xoom, so grab that (I know the interface currently looks bad on the Xoom; a tablet optimized interface is coming soon!). SetCPU versions prior to 2.1.1 will not work for setting speeds on the Xoom.
Source code: Based on Google's android-tegra-2.6.36-honeycomb with some overclock specific modifications by me.

I get ~47 MFLOPS in Linpack for Android, 35 MFLOPS stock. Linpack seems to hit a wall somewhere and isn't really accurate for the Xoom:
I get ~355ms in SetCPU's native bench (C only, the Tegra 2 sadly doesn't support NEON), ~534ms stock. This scaled almost precisely with clock speed, but the native bench isn't multithreaded:
3105 in Quadrant at 1.5GHz, compared to 2226 stock (though Quadrant tests more than just the CPU):
Keep in mind that the benchmarks I tested often aren't multithreaded enough to show a large difference between the Xoom's Tegra 2 and a similarly clocked single core Cortex A8. Some operations benefit more from the Cortex A9's improved architecture and/or the two cores more than others.
Enjoy your even faster Xoom!
Niiiiiceeee work! How about stabilty? is it stable at that speed? good for everyday work?
Holy sheep ****! A 50% overclock is very impressive. Nice job, here's to hoping overclocking eventually makes it's way to the Atrix.
Just awesome!
amazing work. I flashed it, and it's working great!
nice work! Going to give this a shot now
I get to step 5:
5. Push the bcm4329.ko to your /system/lib/modules folder and reboot to re-enable wifi:
adb remount
adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
adb reboot
and get error: device not found. isn't bcm4329.ko suppose to be in tools folder?
actually how do I push the bcm4329.ko to /system/lib/modules folder

ADB doesn't seem to be able to find your Xoom. Sometimes you can just unplug it and plug it back in and run adb kill-server to get it to detect again, and/or re-enable USB debugging.
As for stability, I did not have crashes at 1.5GHz on my Xoom.
how do you run adb kill server
tried adb remount and device still not found. help
Did you reboot the device after doing the fastboot command? If not, run
fastboot reboot
ok did that now when I try to push the file it says there is no such file or directory
adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
I looked and I do not have a modules folder. Is there suppose to be one in the android/tools/lib folder on my pc?

You need the bcm4329.ko to be in the same directory as adb, Program Files (x86)/Android/android-sdk/platform-tools/
The modules folder is a folder on the actual Xoom itself, it's just where you're copying the file to, and it most certainly should have one.
ok finally got it to work! no when I look in setcpu the max is 1504 and min is 216 but the numbers up top (big, bold and in white) keeps changing. From 312 Mhz, 216Mhz, 1504Mhz and so on. Is that suppose to happen? I thought the number was suppose to stay the same. And is the set on boot suppose to be checkmarked?
thanks for all your help

What CPU Governor are you using? I use On Demand, it's going to scale if it doesn't need all that horsepower... I always set it on boot myself, I actually found after first boot it was defaulted to 1504mhz instead of 1ghz... I set up profiles for good power saving.
p.s. I'm still using SetCPU 1.4.4 from a LONG time ago when I originally got it on my Droid, works perfectly on the Xoom.

Yes. Change the scaling to performance if you want to see it at the highest value all the time, but leave it at interactive for battery life, because it will only scale up based on need.
how does this affect video play back speed? Likely software mode rather than hardware mode.
a visitor from the atrix forum! i was just wondering anyone with this kernel if they could test HQ flash performance over at gomtv.net for SC2 GSL games. I know super nerdy but I watch these often and on the atrix at qHD there is some noticeable stuttering (about ~20fps) i estimate where a overclock to tip that over to around~25fps would be really helpful. does the OC help alot from stock with flash performance?

How to make simple ZRAM init.d script 1. Using Root Explorer, got to /sytem/etc/init.d/2. press Menu then create new file 3. paste these in it
#!/system/bin/sh sysctl -w vm.swappiness=40 echo "1" > /sys/block/zram0/reset echo $((50*1024*1024)) > /sys/block/zram0/disksize mkswap /dev/block/zram0 swapon /dev/block/zram0
4. close and save it as 60ZRAM 5. set permission to 777 or "rwxrwxrwx" (tick all) 6. take note: 50 *1024*1024 = 50MB zram disksize. if you want to set 30MB, change 50 to 30.

Please answer, I want more performance for games..
First of all you cannot re lock your bootloader with custom kernel... Secondly gpu is already overclocked... There is no way you can alter it... So stop asking in every thread that could you relock the bootloader with custom kernel...

Hi everybody
Ones again I am here to guide you to increase there performance of you device.
To make it smooth n lag free.
Well, it took a whole week to complete these scripts so please shower this thread will positive views.
This Scripts are strictly for GALAXY Y only. Do not try it in any other device.
The following scripts attemps to make your phone battery dures more time or your phone more responsive and smoother by modifiing some governor's parameters.
It will set CPU min freq at 234 MHz and max at 832 MHz, the governor in the script name, BFQ scheduler and apply tweaked tunables for battery or performance.
Steps of Install
Download Script Manager
Download the script and placed it in the root of your sd-card
Open SManager >> explore to the scripts >> select the one you want to integrate >> check script >> root >> set at boot [set at boot is optional]
In arguments, write b or p within you want battery or performance optimisations
Click save
Click Run
Downloads :
1.Interactive-governer.sh
2.Conservative-governer.sh
The following scripts are tested and working on the following kernel :
1. Merruk kernel
2. Savie's kernel
Credits:
Pending....
Please test it on other kernels and report me, I will add you in Credits.
More scripts are comeing soon.
I will be not responsible if you brick your device or dead sd card or anything happen to your device.
Please give me credit if anyone mirror my work.

I just received mine this mourning still testing it.
Looks great, seems fast and performing... was searching a safe way to root it, though. Any help?
Quick review and questions
Thanks ghost45 for starting this thread.
My ZP920 arrived yesterday.
It seems pretty quick, but antutu froze during the 3d graphics test and the final score was only 32000 ??
Battery life seems very poor at present, down to 1% after 24 hours, although about an hour of that was on wifi, my old ThL W8 would do better. I've noticed that when I switch off and connect charger the screen immediately shows 27% charge, not the 1% before switch off. Anybody any clues ? faulty battery ?
Does anybody know which usb drivers are required and (ideally) a solid method for rooting the mtk6752 ?
I'm looking forward to progressing with this phone and hoping it is as good (well much better than) my old faithful - but slow - W8.

Hi,
Probably antutu not have the necessary info to test this new phone with 64 bit architecture.
The problem about the battery is hard but i will hope after 7or 8 cycle of recharge the battery will be good.
I will test it immediately after that i receive it in my hands.
See you

USB drivers all installed automatically when plugged in to Windows 7 x64 laptop, adb driver included see jpg clips.
tried framaroot no success, mtkdroidtools does detect phone, but has an error. No root so far....
Tip: 64Gb SDXC not recognised until it was formatted by the device, now working fine.

Hi, update,
Antutu v5.5 works well gives score 41450! (v5.6 still hangs at 3D graphics test ?? bug? also it doesn't list 64bit/32bit cpu test?)
Camera on mine works brilliantly for stills and video - skype video is best ever.
Battery life getting better after a couple of recharge cycles, now getting nearly 4 days mostly on standby.
Has anybody tried the Ghost45 rooting method yet ??
If I root manually (by su binary adb push from linux host etc) will this still void warranty and block future ota updates (i.e. to Lollipop)?

My Update :good:
- yes the camera, overall is pretty good, excellent with decent lighting
-battery life is getting better every day (i'm at the 5th recharge cycle): after a full working day with medium usage, i'm still at 71%
-i found a post on zopomobileshop forum explaining how to root the device with the alert:
Remember after received the right root is not possible to apply the update of new firmwares.
Still havent tried yet, was hoping to get Lollipop on it.

Hi,
I interested this phone, but i don't know what's about battery life. How many ours can you use the smartphone (time on screen in battery setting) in normal usage (wifi, 3G, games etc.)? Thank you in advance.
Could someone please run androbench and post the first 4 results. And if you run the benchmark several times, does performance drop significantly?
Thanks

How are you finding the ZP920? Any annoying issues (e.g., Bluetooth, gps while driving, call quality, touch screen issues, etc...)
