Re: Does Setcpu really work?

The hummingbird was awesome when it was awesome, but there would be large hiccups where the system would totally lock for what I considered to be a frustratingly long amount of time.
I guarantee that I have more phones on my computer desk right now then you have ever owned and have had way more phones than that in my hands for 1+ weeks at a time in the past year, so my opinion COUNTS MORE by your logic. There is not a single phone that i would give my Evo up for.
Also, and this is kind of a side note; I think your post may have been racist. That thing about the Taiwanese and Chinese was not only irrelevant, but threw any shred of the shadow of pathetic credibility your post had straight out the window. Your lack of ability to convey thought through writing (referring to your horrible grammar and punctuation) should have signaled me to stop reading right at your first sentence, but I chose to give you the benefit of the doubt. It was a bad decision on my part and I assure you I will not make it again. Aside from being tangentially related to a distant echo of the original post, your post doesn't belong here.
More on topic, SetCPU, in my experience, works famously for giving my Evo a little cpu boost (speed below 1119) when I need it to. The biggest reason I have it installed, though, is to underclock my processor. When my battery is taking a beating, I dial it down to 720 max (Ah, the HTC Hero) and I can squeeze out a good amount more time. It seems that every Evo has a CPU "personality" and they all have different amounts of overclocking that they can handle. You may be clocking it too high and causing mild instability. Also, the scheduler, be it BFS or CFS, may not be playing nicely with your phone. I usually do CFS, but other users with set ups almost identical to my own have great luck with BFS kernels. Playing around and trying new configurations is the only way to know what works for you. Hope that helps.

What is the applause smiley? I forgot. Anyway applause...
I actually came to this page to see if anyone had ripped this guy the new Ahole he deserves and I ended up reading your post, which was very well put together. I know why the boys at AP keep you around. Thanks for getting this guy before I saw it. I have been slacking lately.
And yea you are the thread assassin, by the time I got here he was already dead.  hahahaha.
