ok i downloaded the setcpu.apk file my kernel number is 2.6.32.9 can i install setcpu with out installing a diff oc kernel ????oh my ad version is 2.2.1 and once i install what is the recomended setting for the batt settings i read somewhere that 600 and 245 is good for the cpu setting.??
thanks
 
600 is stock if you are looking to overclock you need to play around a little at different speeds just make sure you dont have set at boot checked until you know your phone is stable or you will bootloop. i have mine min 748 max 768 and the phone runs smooth and is lag free and with the sense rom I have decent battery for as much as i use my phone. I dont believe set cpu is supposed to be used for saving battery but I could be wrong, have you looked at juice defender?
