I set the fail safes yesterday after rooting and installing bb7.4. I haven't had any heating issues yet and love the results so far, but I went to bed last night with 70% battery and woke up 6 hours later and the battery was dead to the point that it wouldn't boot.

Set the 'charging' profile back down to 550mhz instead of OC'd. The battery charging is going to generate heat anyway, no need to add to the heat by running the OC. Just a tip
chrashes........nope Im running smooth. I am glad i rooted b4 the update because if they trying to stop rooting then its going to be hard to get the wifi tethering. Just yesterday the iphone guys at work could not get a 3g signal i went to each one of them turned on mi tether and allowed them to tether off me for 30 secs just so they could see what having a real 3g network on a smart phone can do for it......can i say owned.

good tip, when I first OC'd I set my charging to 800max and 550min. My phone felt like it was going to exploded!! lol I have it set the same as my regular profile now (950max 225min) all seems well

Same here. Plus I figure if it does heat up, the failsafe profile should throttle down the CPU anywaySet the 'charging' profile back down to 550mhz instead of OC'd. The battery charging is going to generate heat anyway, no need to add to the heat by running the OC. Just a tip

doo that effect calls coming in or anything being that low.
Well, keep in mind you have a maximum and a minimum. Your mimum is 125 so that's enough to power everything. If your phone is sleeping you got to and I hate to use the word but assume that you're not using the Droid for anything else. So it shouldn't bother in coming calls. Don't forget the moment the call comes in the Droid wakes up.
It doesn't seem to. It has only been 24 hours or so since setting it up.
Mines set to be that low and I've been getting all my calls in (which unfortunately doesn't help with the damn tele-marketer problem :\ ) I think it should be ok for standby/sleep mode
Very useful info, Christim; I appreciate it. Now I'll have to decide if I should go that way or not. It sounds really tempting, though.
I'm just a little afraid to ruin my phone.

This is like the mod bug for cars.
I got my car. Said it's fine the way it is. But then, I Threw a bigger cam and some long tune headers and a better intake on my brand new car, gained 90 hp.
I got my phone. Said it's fine the way it is. But then, I rooted my brand new phone and now am running Bugless Beast, gained 250 mhz. At least this was near free.
