I did something wrong I guess. Had to re-flash the phone.

Question:

If I go from factory default. How do I copy the template settings (for example xlv)? And to which file. In the mini-tutorial you just describe how to save the alreade existing configs whith the "kernel-config save" command.

Do i copy the template for xlv to the /.kernel/myconfig??

Thank you for doing a great job!

what did you do before reflashing? what was the problem?

kernel-config load xlv
then modify the settings (if you want)
and save it
kernel-config save myxlv
or as default
kernel-config save

to use the unmodified xlv
kernel-config setdefault xlv

It was rebooting over and over again.

Now I've gone back to nokia default but with power kernel. This because the temperature went up to 40 degrees!

Will try the steps in your reply when my battery is fully charged again. It was drained with the last config... :-/

with an empty battery a reboot loop is not unusual.
I had the same problem when a broken process drained my battery during sleep.
just recharge the battery.

yes, implicitly.
all frequencies not listed in FREQS are put into avoid_frequencies.
This way we could also cleanly add other frequencies (e.g. 400, 650) in the future.

I hope that Matan can find some time to fix his patch so that it really do not use those frequencies.

how could this be?
the frequency, volt and dsprate changes itself?

my settings:
MINFREQ=500
MAXFREQ=1000
FREQS="500:30,360 550:33,400 600:38,430 700:45,430 750:45,430 805:48,430 850:48,500 900:54,500 950:54,500 1000:60,500 1100:72,520 1150:72,520"
UP_THRESHOLD=75
SAMPLING_RATE=150000
SMARTREFLEX_VDD1=0
SMARTREFLEX_VDD2=0
IGNORE_NICE_LOAD=0
EARLYSSH=0
FSCK_HOME=0

but it automatically changes to:
# kernel configuration file generated by /usr/sbin/kernel-config
MINFREQ=500
MAXFREQ=1000
FREQS="500:38,180 550:38,360 600:30,400 700:33,430 750:38,430 805:38,430 850:45,430 900:48,500 950:48,500 1000:54,500 1100:54,500 1150:60,520 "
SMARTREFLEX_VDD1=0
SMARTREFLEX_VDD2=0
IGNORE_NICE_LOAD=0
UP_THRESHOLD=75
SAMPLING_RATE=150000

there seems to be a bug in the save function.
also load doesn't set the dsp. it will be fixed in the next upload.

Hmm... now I've

kernel-config load xlv
kernel-config save myxlv
edited myxlv. Set Max.Freq to 850
reboot
kernel-config load myxlv
kernel-config show (looked OK)
reboot

As soon as I did this the battery temperature went up to 38.
Also with xlv the boot-up video didn't work

When I overclocked "the old way" it worked just fine :-S
Hope you can help me. I kinda liked the 850MHz mode

Time to go to bed. My doughter will probably call for me within minutes

Do I need to set the FREQS like that ""500:38,180 550:38,360 600:30,400 700:33" ? Cause I just set "30,33,38..."

I have not been able to reproduce this bug.

Can you please give an example of min_freq, max_freq and avoid_freqs that displays this problem?

Preferably also with two values of stats/time_in_state 5 minutes apart.
