10% an hour of non use isn't right. I don't use setcpu and the 10% per 3 hours is about right for me.
The CPU clock speed is dynamic to start with and can easily drop to almost zero when sleeping. How do you know your, "under clock", isn't really and over clock? In other words if you have it set to say 300 you may actually be preventing it from dropping lower? Or is what you enter the max clock speed?
Oh I see from the above post its the max....
Which leads me to my next question. Why buy a 1ghz processor if you are going to underclock it? I'd rather have it run full speed and buy a charger... But that's just me
I'd really like to see someone do an actually test with and without do see if it really does help.Frankly I don't see how they could help unless you have an app that's preventing your phone from sleeping and if that's the case I'd remove the app not cripple all the others.
Well..... I guess it would save battery if it's under clocked with the screen on, but like I said I'd rather buy a charger or have it set up to manually turn it on if I don't have access to a recharge and won't for some time. I mean I bought a 1ghz phone for a reason and it wasn't to make it a 500Mhz one..
