Michael Huang ("CoolBho3000"), author of "SetCPU" for Android, explains how and why the "overclocking" hack written by Eugene373 *looks* like its overclocking....but can't possibly be overclocking.
A ripping good yarn well worth reading.
If it is possible to overclock the HTC Magic the practical, stable solution has yet to be found. But it was fun there for a few days!
I've also discovered the "SuperD v1.8" ROM by benbuchacher and "Fasttest v2.3" by htcclay are VERY fast Android v1.6 ROMs. If they can just get the voice to work properly on out-going calls (bit me today - had to dump the ROM over it), these ROMs could be champion of champions.
htcclay has a new ROM out today. I'll check it and see if he's got the phone sorted.
