That's where Underclocking comes in.
The OC widget does OVER and UNDERclocking. You can set the CPU to slow down a bit when the device is off, which saves battery.
Custom kernels are made to do this as well, sometimes without the need for the widget.
The current OC widget has not been Froyoized to my knowledge and is causing some issues for some users.
Hope that helps. Somebody jump in if I missed something. |
The OC was on FOX I think not MTV... It was like a new take on melrose place or something...
Yes, OC = Over Clock. I can't wait for netarchy to get the new kernel out with the official Froyo code. It will
