Notes about Battery Saver script
Can be used with any kernels that have init.d support
It completely eliminates the need for an application to set CPU speeds or profiles
Easily customizable - See FAQ for instructions
During sleep, it will set Max CPU speed to 1.0GHz & Min CPU speed to 384MHz
If Android Overclock, No-Frills CPU Control, Overclock Widget, QuickClock Advanced Overclock, SetCPU or System Tuner are detected, the script is ignored, so it will not affect them
The script can also control how the second, third & fourth cores works, they can be enabled full time, per profile or disabled completely
Preset profiles are:
1.45GHz - 100-85%
1.35GHz - 84-36%
1.24GHz - 35-0%
And just an FYI, even at 1.24GHz, the phone still operates very well & smooth, it's the battery savings that are the real benefit
v1.5
Enabled Multi-User support (rotate lockscreen to change users)
Simplified some of the battery saver script code
Enabled NFC while on lockscreen
Added
UV support for m_plus kernel
Updated

Important Notes - Due to how this ROM is setup, a wipe is recommended BEFORE flashing if coming from another ROM
If your are updating, then nothing extra is needed during flashing as the update script wipes what is needed, unless other wise stated in the change log
Be sure to do a backup before flashing and read the change log
