Been running this on my HTC 6800 for a week now with noticeble speed increase from application to application. No side effects or new functionality issues as of yet. I will report back as they arise. Thanks for this find.

I've also been running this on my 6800 with no side effects. I wish I new more though as I belive this could be optimized for the 6800 better.

Until the creator comes 'out of the closet', I'm going to believe its a psychology experiment and that someone is laughing their butt off somewhere. Schettj's speed tests show no change .... and besides, just overclocking the cpu won't increase i/o bus speeds.

Using XCPU Scalar I've timed and validated a 22% speed increase from 416-520. Are you saying this is false? Granted anything that I've LOADED into memory takes the same time like loading iGuidance but when I wrote a division loop in vb and let er rip it was 20-24% faster every time. EVERY TIME.

Sugar Pill? Hardly. I'm thinking everyone is loading from their memory card and assuming the processor has a big part in this action and not seeing any faster results.

Load up a math routine. Its faster.

I ran this yesterday on my mogul and I didn't notice any change. I ran SKTools benchmarking utility and it showed no different results.

how in the do you have a plan so cheap from sprint???

I'm working on a definitive solution to the does it go faster question:

First - there's one thing for sure - the battery drain is linear and parallel to the speed setting.

Second - loading doesn't seem to go faster

Third - math operations DO go faster

Four - it is definately doing SOMETHING...

stop the insanity...

Test this:
run navigation software, time how long it takes to route two distant points.

turn booster off and repeat.

also try variation of running from storage card vs running from main memory.

I tried from card only and no speed difference with/without booster.

I may have an explanation for all this.
I will need any users to verify, those that have "acbPowerMeter", or "CPU-ID" or "Xcpu" or "PHM" installed (with sticky engine disabled).
OR Any program that shows the current CPU status.

In all overclock programs, they implement a system to disable the processors auto-scaling BEFORE implementing their own overclocking...

If this program is from HTC then it would disable the processor very efficiently before it acted to overclock, (which we do not see it overclocking), so you should at least have a processor running steady at 416mHz with auto-scale disabled....
Disabled it runs at 416mhz, as it does when in camera mode, or using external power...

This is just a theory untill most users here can confirm.

Another theory is that the program itself running in background, "trying" to do anything would trigger our units to stay running at 416mhz and not auto-scale down...

Both senarios would fit the simptoms of feeling faster without actually showing an increase in heavy tasks, since it would be at this speed when doing tasks anyway...

EDIT: has anyone checked the Bus and mem speed with this proggy?

The fact that most users here confirm a difference at all states that something must be taking place.. even if it is mass hysteria ! lol kiddin
