*Absolution 3.3 Important Information*​

What is what in AbsolutionTools you ask?

1. Custom OC Profiles:
Sloth - Sleep = conservative 192/345 + Wake = interactive 192/883
flappjaxxx - Sleep = conservative 192/345 + Wake = ondemandX 192/1113
rasroy - Sleep = conservative 192/345 + Wake = ondemandX 192/1344
Nun - Sleep = conservative 268/345 + Wake = ondemand 268/1190
Lone Star - Sleep = conservative 192/192 + Wake = interactive 268/1267
Dumbass - Sleep = conservative 192/345 + Wake = lagfree 192/1420

2. GPS Configs are by crypted and they are all version 2.2 except for Worldwide 1.3 which may be better for some than 2.2 that is why I included it. Make sure to be patient if coming from a clean install when trying to get your first lock. It may take quite some time as it downloads assistance data. I don't think I need to say this but you should not be in a house or a building trying to get a lock as this will severely degrade signal.

3. At the moment 1:30pm EST when you Update AbsolutionTools it will reset any custom OC/UV custom profiles. I will push out a fix for this today some time. But if your profile gets nuked just set it again. Takes a whole 2 seconds. I did this on purpose for a reason. To ready people's devices for the profiles in Tools 5.0 that may not have had andrev_oc installed.

4. If you are using OC/UV Beater Please uninstall it as it will conflict with the current settings you are using if you use custom OC profiles. I will be posting a fix for this later today too.

5. Undervolting is seriously not recommended on this version of Absolution. Your battery life will be as good as it is going to get. Default frequencies are lower than stock CM7 kernel out of the box. If you insist on using undervolting use the included Absolution Undervolt because so far it is the only amount of undervolting that is fairly stable.

6. Ad Blocking Apps such as Ad-Away are no longer needed as AbsolutionTools takes care of this now and it uses the lists as Ad-Away.

7. If you do the One Touch Google Apps Installer from tools YOU MUST Reboot after install or you will in fact get Force Closes. I included the most standard Google Apps to get most users up and running but not all of them. After using the installer Reboot, Open Market and Search Google and it will show you which ones are now installed and which ones aren't.

8. If you are having Compatibility issues with apps in the Market after changing screen resolution in Tools, Go to Homescreen> Settings> Applications> Manage Applications then Find Market and Clear Data then reboot and you should be good to go.

PLEASE READ THIS:

Before you make any changes on your phone, make sure you know what you are doing first. That means, read first, read some more, and continue reading until you are comfortable with making whatever change you want. To not do so is only asking for trouble. With that, The Collective is not responsible for any damage you may cause your phone. If you destroy your phone, brick it or do anything that causes it not to work properly, it is your own doing.

So far so good will setcpu interfere with the oc/uv beater?

You need to pick one app to mess with oc/uv. If not, the two will compete with each other which will only cause potential problems.

We are here to help. Plus that's the advantage of having a ROM that is supported by a team like ours. However, keep in mind we won't always be able to answer in 7 minutes or so, but we will certainly do the best we can. Thanks for trying out Absolution!!
