My N900 has poorly written video drivers that don't accelerate the graphics layer. That sucks, and makes me hate the phone.

Overclocked?

Remember a couple of things: One, your system will automatically underclock to 250mhz to save battery power when it can. When the cpu load goes over 90% for a bit of time, it will bump the speed. But it takes a bit of time to do this, making transitions appear jerky.

Once you have kernel-power, you can mess with some of those settings in your (oc)clock profile file.

Sounds more like the ******ed application manager. Set the software update check interval to next millennium.

Also get a copy of tracker-cfg and kill the stupid tracker daemons.

If you find your n900 slow try my tweak steps. Opinions and thoughts are welcome.

I do have something you can try. Edit your overclock profile (/home/user/.kernel/something) and set your dsp frequency to the default value (430 when processor is at 600). The dsp frequency is the number after the ','. For me, as I only use 850 MHz, it is 850:56,430.

Hope that helps, it worked for me.

Exactly, when one connects to internet, there are several things happening and the heaviest is HAM which checks for new updates. Others are chat plugins connecting and mail check. Probably several desktop widgets also join there in the fun.

OC isn't always a good thing, in moderation it can be. As crash said knock it back a bit and see what happens. At 1.1k mhz your flogging the bugger to death.

Thanks. Always thought it was the more the merrier but guess there is only so much it can take. Will try running at 850 maximum. What are people's thoughts on minimum? Should it be like 250, 500 or the same as maximum? Have read somewhere keep a low minimum as it saves battery when screen is locked. But I have also read better to have same maximum and minimum as having a different minimum causes the device to jump around and possibly be less stable due to having to work different frequencies.

if screen is locked it should take Omhz
