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
