Yes, it'll create and flash a boot.img just fine on an AOSP ROM, however, I don't have the required patches to the kernel to be fully functional.

Thank you for the quick reply sir and thank you for the knowledge!

Alright guys, I got the dynamic toggling on/off of frequencies working. I still need to clean up the code, and run more test, but since 0430 is approaching to fast, I'll get it cleaned up and posted tomorrow night. Not to bad, only took 33 builds to get it all working correctly, turned out to be easier than I was trying to make it.

Just so you know somewhat of how it will work, you'll have a new sysfs file under /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq, called user_freqs. If you echo a freq to it, it will toggle it's state. If you cat it, it will show the state of ALL freqs, not just those enabled. I also modified/fixed cpufreq_stats to only display the available frequencies.

And lastly, I added two more options, if you echo 0 to user_freqs, it will reset to the kernel defaults. If you echo 1 to user_freqs, it will disable all frequencies outside of your min and max.

Don't worry, once I'm rested, I'll do a complete write-up with examples. Now if there are any Java developers that would like to write an app, that would be even better.

That's is awesome Ziggy. Guess i came up with a half way deceant idea then. LOL Or maybe you had already thought of it. I am eager to try this one out.

I agree a java app would even be better...

I had been tossing it around in my head for awhile now, you guys just made me think about it some more. As long as nothing major is found today between myself and a few others, I'll be releasing it tonight, so stay tuned.

Just saw this. Okay stupid question is the commands done via terminal on bolt or through adb on pc?

Never mind did it via terminal on computer. Worked like a champ!!!! Now someone put that into Java!!LOL

can it be scripted to do certain one one the fly though? i.e use root explorer to execute the commands?

Yes, you can script it if you want, there's a link in the first post to my site and a write up all about sysfs, it doesn't include the user freqs, but you'll be able to fill in the blanks. If not, I'll do a write up and get it posted here for everyone.
