Thanks reinob, this at least clarifies the order of events for me. But I seem to remember that the kernel-power file had altered parameters in it. Is it possible that qcpufreq writes to it when 'saving'? Can't figure out how else the changes could have been made.

On the other question, any insight why a deinstall won't work?

Not so sure about this kernel-power file. It says do not edit. Make a copy if you want to customize it. So, where do the original values come from? And if you want to create a new file with, for instance, smart reflex enabled, what name would you use to save it as default?

When I try to do it automatically with Nokia Kernel, I get the following message:


Yes, I am connected to the internet. Application Manager is not running. I've tried with usb connection, ac connection, and no connection. Battery is full.
When apt fails, just use dpkg to fix the system.
Btw, I assume you *know* what you are doing.

Thanks maacruz, but if you read through my earlier posts today you'll see that I've done that and you'll see what message I get back:

Reinstallation of kernel is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
Reinstallation of kernel-flasher is not possible, it cannot be downloaded

Kind of know what I'm doing, but I have to admit that I don't know what dpkg does. Can you run me through this? Thanks.

The default config files come with the kernel-settings package (or whatever its name is).

You could always disregard the warning and edit them, but it doesn't hurt just copying the one closest to what you want, rename it to whatever you like (e.g. "optimized" , and edit it as you like.

The best is if you then put it in the /etc/default/.. folder, so it will be loaded automatically without having to touch any other script.

I'm not sure where/how qcpufreq stores its defaults. I suggest removing that package, as normally you set your parameters once and then forget about it..

BTW, no idea about deinstalling. I guess the bulletproof method is to flash the kernel (and *only* the kernel). But this will not help with reinstalling, as the package system will still think that KP48 is installed..

has anyone had an issue where the min limit goes back to 125 after a phone call?

im using the ondemand govenor and have 125 and 250 in the avoid-frequencies file.

i dont think it happened on kp47.

From the overclocking section of the Wiki:

the telephone app is closed-source and broken. After a phone call it sets the maximum to 600 Mhz and the minimum to 250 MHz (or 125 MHz if available) irrespective of what you have set before. The are some workarounds in the Kernel-power kernel.

We've discussed this issue just a few pages ago in this thread, although in the end it wasn't clear even if the problem existed at all.

Can you "prove" that your CPU is actually going down to 125Mhz, or is that merely the output of "kernel-config show".

If the frequency is being avoided, it doesn't matter if the minimum is set to that frequency. Check with e.g. conky and see how low the CPU goes with nothing else running (or use powertop if you know how to).

AFAIK most people avoid 125Mhz but allow 250Mhz, which doesn't seem to harm. Why do you need to avoid both 125 and 250?
