Re: Overclocking the N9/N950
 
SGS1 which uses a similar Cortex A8 1GHz CPU and it was quite stable for most people up to 1.2GHz even with undervolting. The later US variants such as Epic/Fascinate etc could go up to 1.6GHz and some found it perfectly stable up to 1.5GHz. So based on the N9 using something similar, I can make some slightly-educated guesses.

- 1.2GHz should be a guaranteed stable clock frequency IMHO. Might even be considered a perfectly safe overclock as it may hardly put any extra stress on the CPU. It should also give a nice 10%+ boost to app loading times, web page rendering etc.
- 1.4GHz will be stable for some probably. Just guessing here but I reckon it's doable and if lucky, 100% stable for over 50% of people. I wil be very happy if I can achieve this.
- 1.5GHz+ is very uncertain. It all depends on how good the SoC used in the N9 is. But if it is possible and stable, it should give quite a noticeable improvement in performance.

I reckon N9 will show a much more noticeable difference once overclocked compared to N900 due to the huge boost in RAM. My N900 ran at 1.1GHz ALL the time for over a year never missing a beat and although it's definitely noticeable, the lack of RAM limits N900's capacity to multitask bigger apps smoothly. (even a few MicroB browser instances can make N900 laggy)

So someone please make this happen on the N9 like how it was done on the N900!!

Hi Guys,
Any progress on the N9 overclock ?

Any new about oc:ing this great phone? :rolleyes:

^ Follow the Nokia & AEGIS thread at forum.meego.com.
Only once it gets fully resolved can we talk about OC'ing.

There is no source code available for PR1.1 apparently.
Anyways, N9 seems less open/hackable than Android right now.
I guess we just need to wait a bit more and hope this will eventuate.

Hi there people, where can I get the kernel source code?
I'm already using an openmode patched kernel.
Overclock should be very simple, it's just a matter of changing an entry in the omap cpufreq table.

This was discussed in the Nokia & AEGIS thread IIRC.

Should be hosted there, but if not go back a few pages in that thread.
IIRC there's a way to request the DVD with sources etc.
