Comments on OverclockWidget (Need Root) for Android

★★★★★ Awesome! Please allow custom freq! on my stock kernel there are only a few freq and I want finer control (between the predefined ones)...
★★★★★ Great app Been looking for an app to save battery life! Battery saver apps werent helping...but this little widget really works. Just turn down frequency for when screen off and battery life improved probably 60%! Its also add-free and doesnt hound you to rate it...which is why I am rating it. Excellent work!
★★★★★ Very good App for my DOOGEE DG800 .I try it on a doogee dg800 mt6582 Rooted phone. I used KINGO SUPER USER APP. I managed to root my phone. Then I also used KERNEL TUNER APP. I could solve my battery drain problem by switching off 3 out of 4 cpus. Now I can get about 12 hours of battery life. Just using one core cpu. I use CPU-X to watch my cpu status. And finally I used OVERCLOCK WIDGET bit did not work well on my cpu mt6582 as it says
★★★★★ AWESOME I use this for gaming and viewing high quality 3d images this app works AWESOME
★★☆☆☆ First it bullshits me abt the widget then says i don't have a rooted device wen i hv rooted, it sucks
★★☆☆☆ Does not work my phone is rooted but it says your phone must be rooted
★★☆☆☆ Disappointed The screen off freq setting just won't get enabled on my nexus 5
★★☆☆☆ Doesnt work Doesnt work w/root Also push ads

Description by Billy Cui Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
It can help you make the CPU run as your wish and monitor the current CPU speed. It can be a speed monster, or a battery saver. It runs similar to setcpu, and when full speed, can speed up your game performance, such as Angry Bird, Cut the rope, Fruit Ninja etc... when set to lower freq, it can enlarge your battery life.
