So be it. I'll let readers determine who the ass is in this discussion.
Copycounslr, good luck with actually getting the phone to shut off it's own scaling. I don't know if anyone's tried a hardware solution like you're suggesting . . . I definitely don't have the experience. I know Anton's looked at the programming end for a long time, and PHM hasn't been able to solve it either.
If your phone is locked in at 520, and you're not autoscaling in XCPUScalar - then it's definitely autoscaling at the phone's original rate. I thought you were talking about a savings versus the stock phone frequency. Everytime you're actively running the phone - it'll be at 520, which means it's burning more energy than a 6700 out of the box. However, otherwise - it'll be burning the same power as you would otherwise see on standby. Did I explain that clearly?
You're not going to be saving more energy than a stock phone, but you would only be burning more power when actually using the overclock. That's why I love to use my phone at 624 100% of the time, I've been doing it for over the last year. I don't think the power loss is significant at all. With a 2600 lithium polymer battery, I can still go 2 days of heavy use without charging - though my phone will be close to dead by the end.
