1. top
2. p (sort on cpu usage)
3. m (sort on mem usage)
4. q (quit)

i am not sure htop is that much better than top. I tried it.. long time ago. But went back to using top as it did what i needed.

I just did will this help in closing all the unwanted application or any processes that are consuming battry?

ohmd use 0% of cpu for me.
I don't think that the problem is the OS, an instable application do this.
Reflash should help.

is there no way to sumhow stop all the other processes other than the OS one to end??? i do not want to reflash my phone..

You could copy the output here.. and we'll take a look. Remeber to sort it. You could also make a screen dump if you preferr that. Just press ctrl+shift+p simultaniously.

3 days? my battery barely lasts 12 hours. after 12 hours get hardly 10 % left. And for information hv nt many apps installed. Usage very minimum. also changed that swappiness to 30 by doing which ppl claimed that battery life amazingly increases. Nothing of that sort happens, eventually hv to charge my phone everyday for minimum usage as well.

Then you probably have some tweaking to do. A lot can be done by overclocking but also use different configs for different situations. Like using QBW and Alarmed. Lowering the screen brightness. e.t.c.

i was avoiding to overclock my phone , have done all other things from chagnging swappiness, page cluster, to keeping brightness to 2, nothing worked. Bt no where really read that if u over clock it would result in more battery.

I got like 100 Apps installed on mine (not including stock Nokia apps) , 95% of those are from Extra Devel.
My CPU usage is low as heck but my RAM usage is sky rocket from time to time and sometimes it dropped back to 130MB usage. My up time is over 3days and my CPU still pretty normal.

I just format my eMMC and copied back all my files then reboot. Took a screen shot to show you.

I'm even used up 22GB of my eMMC.

Interesting, u get 3 days battery life with that? i have not even install half as many apps u hv put still battery life sucks. guess n900 is one mysterious device :p

Well it does.. make a search of "under volted". Cause that is what most overclockers do.. So if you do it corrct you will have a faster devices but using less voltage. But you will need to do some testing before you find your device optimum setup.

But also how you use the device could make an impact. Like keeping the browser open when not needed will take unneccessary drainage

i did what you said
CPU:2.3% usr:1.7% sys:0.0% nice: 95.5%
load average:0.87 0.60 0.29
what are these numbers means?
