This tutorial is very easy to follow, make sure to follow the steps for results.

**This doesnt not work if Nitdroid is installed
1. Open App Manager
2. Find " Enhanced Linux Kernel for power users"
3. Find Qcpufreq
4. Install both apps ( during installing linux kernel you will get a notice, accept it. Dont worry, it backs up your original Nokia Kernel while installing)
5. Reboot the n900
6. Power on the N900, navigate to the Qcpufreq app.
7. You will see the original limits have changed. Click on options bar, and click on enable overclocking option.
8. Thats it! You can now easily overclock and underclock without a hassle.

** Make sure you dont have Nitdroid or multiboot or nitdroid kernel installed.**
Cheers. This tutorial is mainly made for noobs like me.

I overclocked my phone, after PR1.3 was released and noticed a little lag, so I reset it back and reinstalled PR1.3 again just to make sure everything was back in the default settings. That's just my opinion.

No... Just wanted to simply tell you that all the steps are the same... I can't see a difference.

If you update OTA, you will need to re-install the OC kernel.

I have Nitdroid installed on my N900 (which is now on PR1.3 and still booting Nitdroid as before the update). I seem to remember this made some change to the kernel to allow the boot selection menu - does anyone know if installing the Enhanced Linux Kernel interfere with this or cause conflicts of any kind?

*** strike that question... I just noticed the comment at the top about not working if Nitdroid is installed.

Is there any way to overclock if you do have Nitdroid installed then?

there are i think. you could try the overclock script made by a member in the forum. Try searching extremely easy overclock script in the forums. Enhanced linux kernel gave errors with nitdroid, at least for me. i think it cant boot the enhanced kernel because the multiboot has no option for it. I tried restoring Nokia kernel, and it gave an error. i recommend you to not try this with Nitdroid. The script is easier for most people, but i am a noob in xterminal and this is way easier for me, both for saving battery and also swithing to 1.1ghz to get some extra power when you need to.
