Hey all,

I am new to the fascinate (but coming from Captivate) and I was curious if any of our Devs could make a simple app that could allow us to customize how we undervolt our overclocked kernals. There is one that I have for my captivate but support for it was dissolved when the dev who created it decided to only focus on specific i9000 kernals, and unfortunately the version that still works on my captivate will not install on the fascinate. The newest version will however install, but it requires one of the supported i9000 kernals :(

Does anyone have the know-how to develop an app for this purpose? I found that when undervolting my over-clocked kernals to my phone's ability I could maximize battery life as well as the internal heat, while still having the phone in beast mode with OC's around 1.3ghz.

I've seen it for the GSM kernels, but I don't know if it would work for our phones as the way the CPU frequency and power management is setup is entirely different from the GSM models. I agree that it was a great idea, but it looked to be over my head on how it was done.

There wasn't one, it was included in a few roms until he decided to partner with a certain dev to only support specific kernals. I have a several of the different versions including the older one that still works for all of the captivate kernals, I could post the apk if that would help. Would that be wrong to post his work though?

Nevermind, found this, hope it helps!

Probably due to VZW_AUTH stuff.
