Re: Overclocking the N9/N950
 
Even if the cpu would be overclockable, and there's kernel sources out there (http://maemo.cloud-7.de/950/openmode....10+0m6.tar.gz), most likely the reason why nobody has posted overclocked kernel here, is the fact that system starts freezing/rebooting on higher clockrates because some other parts of the hardware can only handle 1Ghz cpu speeds.

Do you have any evidence of what are you saying?
Are you totally guessing or do you really have overclocked your N9/N950? In the case you have overclocked your phone, could you please post the patch?

Hes an infiltrator working for Elop to fight against the N9. He knows its the sh.t and everyone else knows WP7 *is* sh.t.

Thinking that every other Android device with OMAP3640 has been overclocked, dunno what he is talking about.
N900 with OMAP3430 has been running happily on 900Mhz and for 2 months on 1Ghz for a year already on my N900.


Could we just skip this "it will destroy the device" it's not possible" part already. It did take 3 pages on the epic N900 overclocking thread before everybody was overclocking the hell out of the device just some months after it's release.

Only one hardware "part" is capable of running at 1GHz and above,and that is the Cortex A8. Factory clocks for the 3630 are 800-1200MHz. Droids with the same SoC are easily overclockable and stable.

I'm quite a heavy overclocker on the computer but don't know much about mobile overclocking, could someone explain what would need to be done and what are current problems that stop people from overclocking it?

Check out the epic N900 OC thread to get a feel for what it'd be like for N9.
Don't worry about the earlier post, it was pure speculation...
There's no solid info. yet to suggest it won't OC just as well (if not better).

Until aegis open mode with 100% functionality isn't available, overclocking the N9 isn't going to be feasible...

Read the entire new AEGIS open-mode thread...
As far as I can ascertain from it, there needn't be show-stoppers when it comes OC'ing.
What we're waiting on, is for someone to start experimenting.

But yes there's some issues that need to be resolved, so it's a friendlier env for n00bs.
Else they'll come rocketing into open-mode looking for OC'ing bliss, & run head-on into them.
But there's actually nothing terribly serious, it's almost entirely problem free now.

Reread the aegis open mode thread... It's clear you have but maybe you skipped over that part... GPS isn't working as are a few other functionalities that are integral to the N9, unless this has changed in under 24 hours I can dig up the post on meego forums handset section and post it if needed...
