Title: Sunforger

{sunforger}

Can you unequip it in response or during your opponent's turn? Also can your target be only partially red or white? Also using its effect, can you cast for an overload cost?

Yes, as long as it's equipped to a creature. It's an instant speed effect.
Yes. As long as it CC is 4 or less.
No. Overload is an alternate casting cost. You are already casting it without paying its mana costs. You can't use 2 alternate costs for the same spell.
10/1/2005: You can't pay the cost of the second ability unless Sunforger is attached to a creature.
10/1/2005: Any card you find must be legally castable (for example, you have to be able to choose a legal target for it). If you can't find a castable card (or choose not to), nothing happens and you shuffle your library.
10/1/2005: The card is cast from your library, not your hand. You choose modes, pay additional costs, choose targets, etc. for the spell as normal when casting it. Any X in the mana cost will be 0. Alternative costs can't be paid.

Activated abilities may be used any time you have priority unless another effect or it says otherwise. So yes you may activate it on any players turn so long as you can pay the costs.

A cards colors are determined by the casting cost or color indicator unless otherwise modified. Devoid cards are colorless and cant be found with Sunforger.

Alternate costs cant be used because the sunforger is casting it for the alternate cost of "not paying its mana cost". You can pay for additional costs like kicker and escalate however if able.
