I transferred my audio/video stuff from my old N900 to my brand new N900.

CD covers disappeared.

So in the Terminal I gave the command that eMHa specified in page 2 of this thread:

$ tracker-processes --hard-reset

then started the MediaPlayer and wait the (slow) index rebuild. Just Worked(tm).

I recommend this app to anybody out there who overclocks!

Probably 58 °C, if it wasn't doing anything and you haven't increased the minimum frequency too.

I get a high cpu utilization by savecpu, about 25%, for long time. I had to kill it.

In addition, why so long delay between checks? In 5 minutes you can melt a cpu quite easily! I think the delay should range 1..10 minutes.

I can confirm the high CPU utilization, closing the saveCPU GUI seems to 'resolve' the problem.

Thank you for this application. Once it works it will be of good use during the hopefully hot summer.

Yes, I confim: only the GUI use high CPU. You don't need to take it open, after you have select and stored the parameters.

any chance of an update now that we have power kernel 47?It reads 0 degrees and it always downgrades the cpu cause it doesn`t read the temp properly.

Thanks

need you help m750.
i have updated kernel-power to v47 and after updating qcpufreq started showing temp above 400 some how i managed to get the right temperature and uninstalled Qcpufreq but now savecpu is not showing the actually temp and it's blinking as actual temp is 40.6 now .
i have a widget for showing temp.

As it has been discussed many times v47 kernel corrects a bug that was in v46 regarding the temperature. Since all apps using the temperature information was written regarding the bug in v46, now they do not work well. No need to uninstall qcpufreq.
