oh and just so i'm clear about xCPU slider readout -- when I check the auto-adjust checkbox, whatever the last setting on the slider is what the cpu locks to - and it grays it out when I check the box...

just for the 'skeptics' out there... there's one in every crowd

Some off topic information from a "skeptic". You mentioned buying XCPUScalar for the improved battery life - but XCPUScalar will NOT improve your battery life over stock.

This has been rehashed many times, but XCPUScalar can't undo our phone's autoscaling ability. This problem is unique to the 6700. If you try to do so, the two autoscaling programs conflict - and you end up burning more power than if you had locked the phone at a higher speed. This has been confirmed with abcpowermeter, and by speaking to the creator himself.

If you really don't believe that, I can search up the threads where I recently won that argument here - and also some posts on the creator's website.

I still use XCPUScalar because unlike PHM, when the phone's not actively being used - you can set it to hibernate and let the phone's scaling take over. But when I'm using it, the phone's running at 624 100% of the time.
