Maybe the 600mhz speed was selected because it offered the appropriate speed vs heat?

It's a shame his n900 is so messed up but he must have known the risks before he started.

The only thing he can do now is to reflash with older, stable firmware but not use the phone functionality (can't downgrade it).

Hopefully the 1.2 update will be soon. If you need a mobile phone you will just have to use an old one during the meantime.

This proves the risks are not theoretical but very real.

Your n900 probably thinks this:
THAT WAS FUNNY lol but very true point.

wrong.
something else bricked it.
if the CPU were destroyed, nothing would work.
but he is able to reflash and boot.
the boot is slow, because there is a wrong CMT. that means the n900 tries to log in the gsm network but failes.
he just have to reflash the CMT from the leaked firmware image or reflash the entire image (which can cause problems, because there is no proper eMMC image for the leaked pr1.2).

f2thak... i was going to joke about you send it to me.. but then i saw someone alredy said that.

Your n900 is not perma-bricked. Try reflash both the vanilla and LPR1.2and it sould start as usual.

If it was perma-bricked it would never come to the dots.

If it wasn't a software bug, the hardware could be overheat/overvolt to cause corrupted data to be read/processed/written that caused the boot error.
