Root Rooted Stock 2.2 ROM - free UNDERclock??

[Bulldog]

Totally stock ROM and kernel other than being rooted.

Running Juice Defender and have noticed very nice improvement in batter life. Still want more.

Is there a free way to underclock the phone? I'm not looking for anything fancy, maybe two profiles: 384mhz with screen off and maybe 768mhz with screen on just to try it out for awhile. Overclock widget does not seem to work on my phone. Don't want to buy setCPU without trying first. Is there anything else simple and FREE out there?

you can get set cpu for free @ xda. SetCPU for Root Users [2.0.3] It's over nine thousand 09/03/2010 - xda-developers

Not sure the stock kernel supports OC

 

[lafester]

well the op would like to underclock. i think you can do that and set profiles as long as you are rooted.

HUGE THANKS! I've been a member of XDA for awhile now and never knew this! Thanks for the heads-up! Got my profiles set already.

Last I checked (a week or so ago) setCPU was not working on the NEW stock kernels. Have things changed?

Seems to be working fine for me after disabling perflock.

mine still won't diable. It says "Error e-mail developer"


am i missing something? does the new stock kernal not have perflock enabled?


Edit: forget it i noticed there was and "update" for setcpu in my market downloads last night, Updated and now Perflock is disabled.

ditto and the new version can disable perf-lock on incredible (stock 2.2) on boot up!

So a question - I got the "paid" version from XDA, but now the app won't update without me paying for it? Is this in essence a "trial" version that way?

all the versions are listed on XDA, if there is an update, it should be there, I would think
