from the left

sudo gainroot, opens terminal in root
default, 250 600 default clock speed
overclocked, 250 805 low voltage
extreme, 500 950 ultra low voltage

customizable to what ever you want.

note: you need quicklaunch applette installed and obviously titans power kernel and kernel power settings, both available from the repositories

dont just download if you have no experience of overclocking the n900 as some pre configuring is reqired, these are just icons that run a script, you have to set it all up first!!!

enjoy

Hey mate
That's a VERY NICE mod, thanks a lot!!! But there is a small problem :)
Overclocked and Extreme modes don't work for me! A terminal opens but it closes and the overclock doesn't work? What have I done wrong? Terminal as root works, default too!

have you downloaded titans kernel and settings? if so...

the overclock buttons do work, the terminal is supposed to close. after try this line in the terminal while root to see your clock settings

" kernel-config show "

Re: Maemo 5 MODs - share your MODs!!
 
I think I got what's wront...
Could someone send me a copy of his LV and ULV in kernel-power-settings? Mines are f*cked up, set to 250-600 and I don't know why lol...
That's the reason why it doesn't work!!!

thats the stock default clock speed.
download 'Enhanced Linux Kernel for power users' and 'Enhanced Linux Kernel for power users (settings)' via the application manager, then you're good to go.

gtessier00 2010-06-14 04:05

Re: Maemo 5 MODs - share your MODs!!
 
Well, I tried that, and even after selecting Extreme, kernel-config show shows 250-600... :(

Hey buddy, in order to make these buttons work, you need to make kernel configurations that match the parameters set with the desktop provided in the zip file from dscobsct. In the file there is a read me .txt file. Go through it, as it will help you understand a bit better what he talks about. I didn't use his settings for mine, because I have been using Titan's ideal profile and it works great for me. If I want to be more adventurous, I change the limits to 1GHz or 1.15GHz, but they are both based on the ideal profile.

You need to save the the new kernels for the script;

In xterm:

sudo kernel-config load lv <enter>

sudo kernel-config limits 250 805 <enter>

sudo kernel-config save lv8 <enter>

And then you have the first one. If you want other values just type the ones you want, but still save the file as dscobsct named the .desktop files, then you don't have to change them aswell, if don't save them under the same name as dscobsct it won't work ;)

For the other one just load ulv and set limits and then save as ulv59 :D Should do the trick...

As promised here are the PowerKey Icons..

Attachment 11032

Place the .png icons into usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon

Place the 2 .xml files in etc/systemui

now reboot your device to see the new icons in the power key menu.

*note* applying this mod will remove some of th default options from the PowerKey menu, the options shown in the screenshot are what you will get unless you tweak the systemui.xml file yourself.

Download HERE

Biggzy. ;)

I will do requests if any of you want your name on the loading screen, name must be no more than 10 letters + 'Welcome', or you can have total of 17 letters of your choice.

Just PM me the info and i will PM you back once the work is done (may take upto 12 hours depending on PM time), but most cases will be done within a few hours :D

Re: Maemo 5 MODs - share your MODs!!
 
OK I've just recently uninstalled Catorize as it was munching CPU cycles (and as a result battery life), but the one thing I miss from it is the bug that doubles up your application shortcuts- which meant I could have my phone shortcut on more than one desktop.

I found a small wiki entry here:

Use the same shortcut twice on the desktops can be useful. In order to do it, you have to manually modify appropiate .desktop file by adding the "X-Multiple=true" entry into the file. See Desktop file format for further information.

So is it literally a case of finding the .desktop file for the phone app in /usr/share/applications/hildon/ and adding X-Multiple=true to it?

Many thanks in advance,

D4rKlar

Not trying to give you any extra work, but is it possible to get the text in the tabitha font? Because this is the font i've installed on my N900. But offcourse no problem if it's in the standard font!

Thanks in advance!

Thanks buddy, you made my day, your explanations were so simple.
I'd also like to take a minute to thank everyone here who's patient with the noobs :P I wasn't familiar with Linux before buying my N900 and it's because of people here that I can use a fully hacked N900 :D

Hey Biggzy, if you're bored and feeling creative how about a QB icon for the battery % command? Thanks for all your postings soo far.

Along the same size/lines as the other 3 you made (rootfs, mass storage and MMC card). Thanks pal!

@D4rKlar would it be possible to do a little request? I would like the 1200 pics you've done for the mediaplayer in a 1210 version. I know it's allmost the same turntable, but the 1210 is grey and i like that a bit more ;)

Cool mediaplayer widget, transparent, nice touch. Allso must say that theres some real artists over here in this thread and to you people keep up the good work, i just love to mod :D

Many thanks mate much appreciated, and to everyone posting and modding, keep up the great work!

Isn't the 1210 black and the 1200 silver?

Can't seem to find a pic of the 1210 grey to colourmatch, but I've darkened the 1200 icon- you'll have to let me know whether it needs to be lighter or darker for you :D

EDIT: Obviously once we get the colour right I'll re-size and re-pack ;)

Dear all, if you've got Catorize/myMenu installed try uninstalling it and see if your battery life improves.
