Over/Underclocking Poll

Wanted to poll users as it seems a lot of people are using the Root + Overclocking method in order to improve battery life, but we are getting varied results. I used the unrevoked method and Overclock widget and got 17hours, but 8 of them I was asleep which is only a net of 9hours with moderate use.

Let me know which method you used and if you got positive results so we can see if one method works better than another.

Re: Over/Underclocking Poll

I would have selected "unrevoked overclock widget - not entirely sure". but since that wasnt a choice, I checked "improved".

Re: Over/Underclocking Poll

I'm currently testing unrevoked + setCPU beginning today. The unrevoked + overclock was a mess.

Please explain. I don't understand how you're not sure. Either the method improved your battery life, or it didn't. Pretty straightforward unless I'm missing something.
