so today i set to the LV profile, and set the limit range from 250~850 (following the instructions in Jakiman's guide).


After a reboot, all works well but my frequency is shown to be at 850Mhz........is that suppose to be right?? I thought it should be at 250Mhz and only go up to 850 if it is running processes or in high usage?? But i wasn't running anything and it's already set at 850Mhz......i can of course still set it to a lower frequency but i was wondering if this actually locks your phone to the max frequency?? If yes, then that's kinda no point for this??


I also tried to set the range from 250~300 and after a reboot, my frequency clock is at 300, so that sorta proved my comment above........is this suppose to be right?
If you watch your frequency carefully, it shouldn't permanently stay at 850. I don't know the details of how it decides. Your test didn't prove anything in particular except for you it seems to be going to the max after a reboot. That doesn't mean it will stay there forever. You should go back to 850 max and wait a few days while you check it from time to time. I just checked mine (I used kernel-config limits 500 850) and it started at 850 but now is at 500 according to HealthCheck, one of the best N900 diagnostic programs, and it is at 500 MHz. Now it is at 850 MHz. Just as I expect, it changes.
