SetCPU

[metman87]

Does anybody know if it's safe to use SetCPU on the D2? The processor is fast enough. I'd just like to see if i can stretch the battery by underclocking it while the screen is off as I've read is commonplace on other phones. Thanks.

I would definitely like to know also cause if you can I would root right away

I rooted yesterday and setCPU was one of the first apps I installed - just for underclocking when asleep! Seems to have worked fine, no problems yet.

Yea I autodetected speeds and it seems fine. It won't allow you to overclock yet until we are able to either get a new kernel module to do it or a full kernel (bit off still, even droid x can't do that yet). I underclock when screen is off and that works just fine

ok. thanks. i've been running it for about 12 hours now to underclock with the screen off and so far, no issues. this phone is getting better by the day.

I've used SetCPU to underclock while the screen is off. My battery life is much better than before. I've also removed some of the bloat.

I too have been using SetCPU to underclock when the screen is off or when I'm in class. I haven't had any problems yet.

It's the first app that I've paid for but thats just because I'm cheap, but that's only because I'm a broke college student.

I'm running SetCPU 2.02 no problems. I'm actually running my phone underclocked to 800 and it's running fine. Screen off is set to 600.
