OCT & Opera 10

quickstang · #1 (**permalink**) 09-04-2010, 04:37 PM

I dont know if anyone else has noticed, but I installed OCT 1.5 and have my speed set at 729Mhz and I have never seen Opera run so smooth and fast.

I did load Aug 28th of Energy ROM and dont know if that helps as well over the stock (it took a dump on me 2 days ago so I decided to flash a ROM)

I use to think it was a Sprint deal and it was just a slow data connection, but whatever happened Opera has never been so fast as now. I'm very happy with the internet browsing now. Feels like I have a new device.

Would increasing the speed really make that much of a difference?

it could also be due to the fact that u just flashed a new rom.

I loaded it and i've ran it pretty stable for quite some time at 729Mhz. Anything higher for me seems to freeze it. Now with the new ROM I can't pin point it is what made Opera faster, but it is by far and never was this snappy on the stock 6.1. Of course I never ran OCT on the stock ROM either.

wait like a few weeks before you say this. of course a fresh rom flash is going to be snappy. however i can say that since its been almost a month since i flashed the 6.1 rom im on (sprint basics 1.4) its just as fast as the first day.

I think it's a little of both but overclocking does speed up opera.
Glad to hear you are enjoying your tp2.
It's nice to hear someone that isn't complaining about their tp2.

This should be very easy to test if you really wanted to... load up a large site like CNN at both stock and overlocked speeds, using a stopwatch and clearing the cache inbetween.
