Hi! good people..
I have followed Titans guied precise to the last word. But every time i turn the phone off and den on the kernel go back to 250-600mhz.... and if i turn off an on the phone is all back to 250-850mhz

I did us kernel (maemo25) and have chosen ulv. The older titans kernels ulv workt on my phone.

Do any of u, have the same problem or a fix.. mayby?

I got lots of error when I tried to run Script for analyzing time_in_state (by rooted) - rev6 from wiki.maemo.org/Overclocking

Below is a bit modified version that run at least on my x-term. I don't understand why original file didn't run.

Code:
#!/bin/sh
currfreq=`cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq`
idlefreq=`awk '{if ($2 > 0) print $1}' /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state | tail -n 1`
tis1=`awk '{sum += $2} END {print sum}' /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state`
tis2=`awk '$1 == 250000 {idle = $2} {sum += $2} END {print sum-idle}' /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state`
echo -e "
SCRIPT FOR ANALYZING TIME_IN_STATE
By rooted (maemo.org)
Revision 6 + some modifications

The script is in active development.
Update your script to current revision from:
wiki.maemo.org/Overclocking


FREQUENCY\tUSED\t\tWHEN BUSY"
result=`awk '{if ($1 >= 1000000) printf ("%.0f MHz\t",$1/1000); else printf (" %.0f MHz\t", $1/1000)}{if ($2 == 0) printf "unused\t"; else printf ("%.1f %\t\t",($2*100)/"'"$tis1"'")}{if ($2 == 0 || $2/"'"$tis2"'" > 1) printf "\n"; else printf ("%.1f %\n",($2*100)/"'"$tis2"'")}' /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state`
echo -e "
$result

Current frequency:   $currfreq\t\t\t MHz
Idle frequency:      $idlefreq\t\t\t MHz
Kernel:              `uname -r`
kernel-maemo:        `dpkg -l kernel* | awk '/kernel-maemo/ {print $3}'`
Uptime:              `uptime | sed -e 's/.*p *//' -e 's/, l.*//' -e 's/  / /'`
Load:                `uptime | sed 's/.*e: //'`
Boot reason:         `cat /proc/bootreason`
Temperature:         `cat /sys/class/power_supply/bq27200-0/temp` C\n"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT: When copying script from Overclocking wikipages, use ANSI coding when saving if you are using Windows, etc...
Notepad (also wordpad) adds hidden characters to each line which Unix doesn't like.

If you still get errors, then:
- open file in leafpad (or vi)
- copy all (ctrl-A)
- open a new leafpad
- paste (ctrl-V) copied content to new document
- save document
- chmod +x new document
- run it

Big Thanks to Rooted for help!

install kernel-power-settings
reset /etc/pmconfig to defaults
remove your self-made (if present) upstart scripts in /etc/event.d

ULV defaults are 250-600.
if you reboot within 5mins the ULV settings are not loaded (reboot loop detection)
but only the defaults in /etc/pmconfig - maybe pmconfig is set to 850?

125MHz is disabled by default in v25.
you can enable it with
echo > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/avoid_frequencies
the next version of kernel-power-setttings will have an extra field for it.

please help,
Yesterday I was playing "OPEN ARENA" On my N900, and After about 30 minutes, he hung up and not want to Connect!

My N900 is not more Booting
is not reloading.
Not in League Mode FLASH.
Just glows red, which then hang up.

already happened to someone?

I know it's my fault, but there is some geito to recover it?

I was using the Kernel Operating Titan XLV In 850Mh Minimum 1Ghz and Maximo.

I Was Playing OPEN AREA, My Wifi was on, and also was listening to music.

It was very hot when turned off.

Now no longer wants to connect, just glows red to boot, then turn off

Plugging the same USB, lights a red light, nothing appear on the screen ..

Sera that he DIED?? help

wait, you ran your N900 with 850MHz as a minimum?!
the soc already gets warm when it runs at 600MHz continuously. did you even read the warnings and the topic about overclocking?

and @Titan
thanks, my battery will live much longer now

Yes, I was Minimo Running on 850MHz.
1Ghz max.

I know I should not do that!
Believe it was not because he was at least 850MHz.

plus it was not heating up not, even at 850MHz.

He warmed only when I threw, or things like that
