Sounds about right as it's reporting original as 168 when it's actually 195MHz (I think).

My 1 yr-old C500 is on its 21 hours underclocked state (running 108Mhz although TCPMP reports it to be 127Mhz) and I still have 86% power remaining (still on full bars). Im pretty sure my phone didn't have such performance prior to the underclocking.

Latest version is 0.2 with 372Mhz as highest clock speed option.

Interesting, hadn't thought about the underclocking implications :)

@Paul
Impressive results. Got to try overclocking this time. 372Mhz, will it fry my phone? :)

@awarner
Where did you place the exe? I have it on \Storage. :D

From what I can recall, I restarted my phone and had it (version 0.1) working after.

I have it load on phone Startup using special LNK (v0.2) :
24#”\Storage\OmapClock.exe” -clock 108


Runs silent on background with 108Mhz clock speed. :)

Works on my Vario. Not been brave enough to go above 200MHz in the program (not sure what this corresponds to in actual terms). I had some trouble getting the MemMaid tweak to work, mainly because I had some problems creating the shortcut. I couldn't create it using TotalCommander or File Explorer. In the end I installed a trial copy of Resco Explorer to create the shortcut which now works OK.

What about the risks of overheating the processor and other electric parts with permanent damage (read a blown up phone) as a result? Are there any limitations of for example the 200 MHz Omap processor used in the HTC Typhoon / Hurricane or its WiFi variant in the HTC Tornado which sits in my Qtek 8310? As there are no ways to cool down the phone except for only using it outside during cold days like these ( :) ), I'm afraid having the phone in my pocket and heating it up by my body heat together with an overheated prcessor will cause severe damage?

I can't get the wakeup thing to work, using SKTools or MemMaid which is a bit annoying, sure I DID have it working.

The shortcut works, but when I link to it from wakeup or power on in the notify queue, no dice! :)

Bah!

How is the Vario holding up in a overclocked state? is it a lot faster?

Hope nobody toasts their phone.

If I could find the link to download, I'd give it a go on my C600

Paul, I had problems with the notify queue. The shortcut seems to need a specific format. Here's how I got it to work on my Vario:

1. Installed OmapClock in \Program Files\OMAPClock folder
2. Created a shortcut to OmapClock.exe in the folder \Program Files\OMAPClock with the following target: "\Program Files\OMAPClock\OmapClock.exe" -clock 192
3. Created notification queue entries pointing to the shortcut.

It didn't work if the shortcut was missing the quotes and also didn't work if the shortcut name was too long (OmapClock200.lnk didn't work). The only way I could create a working shortcut was using Resco Explorer. Total Commander stripped off the first " which messed things up.

I'm there now using the excellent SKTools to run it directly with arguments... it still seems a little hit and miss tho.

Might CAB it up later...

How is the phone speed in this underclocked state? Do movies still play OK in TCPMP??? Music?
