You are confused and confusing him. Batterypatch is the one with a non KP version. Speedpatch has only one version, nothing to do with Kernel Power...
I am right, right?
Sorry, my bad! It is battery patch that has the non-kp version. Must learn to read properly before replying :S
As far as I know, speed patch should work without kernel power, but Karam is the one who will know for sure.
oh yeah, you can check with this from post 1:
1. To check if Speedpatch was installed :
-------------------
cd /dev/cgroup/cpu/user/
--------------------
if no problem appeared about (no such file or directory) then you are fine
This should tell you if speed patch is working (I think).
Hi, Im curious - I stopped using N900 because of the lack of performance - the phone was "freezing" even when nothing but mp3 player was working - and by freezing I dont mean it froze up and I had to restart, but that the music was like pausing and immediately starting again (dont know the correct english term, hope you understand). It became a real PITA when I tried browsing while listening to the music. Question is, could this patch help?
PS: The problem described remained even after overclock to 1.2ghz ...

do yourself a favor, fix your phone first (ie: flash it)before trying this patch out or even installing any app or updates to prevent unneeded work for the dev to troubleshoot ur phone, as the phone should not be freezing while playing mp3
I must say bobbydoedoe, that my device used to behave that way when I had no kernel-power nor speedpatch.
I'd tell michalurban to go ahead and try speedpatch to check wether he sees an improvement (I hope so). Now it is easy to install and deinstall it with the respositories version.
Of course, michalurban, you should restart after installing or deinstalling the patch to tell if there's an improvement or not.
