Lehto you are the legend right now, BUT we need the files

I really want to try the 800mhz clock. And if it makes a little performance then you will get donation from me for sure.

Yes, that's what i was looking for. Would really be interested in seeing the effects of that kind of change.

Thanks for the files..Lehto

EDIT:
* on device flashing... :

- open terminal,
type ....
"sudo gainroot" [enter]
"softupd -vv -s --local" [enter]

- open new terminal......
type....
"sudo gainroot" [enter]
"flasher --local -f -k <path-for-kernel_zimage_file>" [enter]

when complete, type...
"sync" [enter]
"reboot" [enter]

If somebody is "smart" enough to flash a kernel, I believe they should understand the breakability of their actions. I don't see why files can't be posted - compiled kernel and modified headers and conf files, included.

7 slot would be nice, 125MHz to 800MHz.

I plan on patching and merging with: http://forums.internettablettalk.com...713#post568713

I still do not get people's concern's (aside from the battery issue). The Droid is rock solid at 800mhz and was also fine at 1ghz (both set with min scale of 250mhz). 600mhz is nowhere near the ceiling of the 3430, but 1.2ghz does seem to be pushing it (temps increase 10 degrees and some freeze ups). Seems the sweet spot for the 3430 is a max of about 800 to 900 mhz.

Then again, the Droid on 3G lasts longer when clocked to 800mhz than the N900 does when in 2G and 600mhz. Yes, apples to oranges, but still seems like the N900 is not as efficient as it should be (pulse audio factor?).

Good point.

It would be cool to have profiles: Browsing and media lower clock and for games (such as MAME and PSX4ALL) a profile to 800mhz.

There are very stable low volt kernels for Droid that clock up to 1.2ghz and have dynamic profiles in an app called SetCPU. Most testing suggests the best range for the 3430 is scaling up to 800 to 900 mhz. When you go past 1ghz, temps begin climbing and freezes start.

Posting from the n900 - overspeeding at 900mhz.

Boy, does this beast fly or what?

Could never never go back to 600mhz. Might as well prepare for the worst.

let's see if it survives till the next firmware update.
