Already tried with root and cannot find /usr/sbin/fiasco-flasher

fiasco-do-update and fiasco-image-update are located at /sbin/

fiasco-image-update /path/zImage --> not a valid fiasco image, skipping



edit: ok I am downloading now fiasco-image from http://mohammadag.ucoz.com/maemo/zImage825.fiasco and then the fiasco-image-update should work

edit2: done & 825mhz kernel runs fine without any problems (so far..)

If you guys want to benchmark the browser after you've overclocked, i'd suggest you run this benchmark in full screen

http://www2.webkit.org/perf/sunspide...sunspider.html

I know it's a webkit benchmark, but it should be a pretty good measure when comparing different clock speeds.

If you run the benchmark, make sure to note your score (should be the Total up top) and any overclocks you've done.

For me: 37233.6ms @ 600mhz (stock)

Waiting for my battery to charge so I can flash to 800mhz kernel!

I've read the wiki page on the maemo flasher, and a lot of pages on here stating that the battery must be fully charged. I'm impatient however, so does it really need to be full to flash the kernel?

This post helped me:
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=316

And reading the Wiki page on the Flasher tool also says how to flash the kernel, it actually seems pretty simple!

I think I did mine when my battery was 35% full. lol. As long as you know your battery isn't going to die on you during the 1second it takes to flash the kernel, you are fine. Battery full recommendation is to just be super duper safe. But if you are flashing via usb anyways, the USB cable is charging your phone anyways so no need for it to be full.
