well, u can overclock a pc by 15% of it's actual speed safely without the need of any real extra cooling
but overclockin in all it's forms does shorten the life span of the object in question
it's a fact!
and y wld u need to overclock ur P800? to get eDoom to run better?

Makes sense
@wrath000
What you're saying makes sense too. To improve the temperature - stability aspect, why not improve the thermal conductivity of the p800 housing by turning the whole case into an enomourse heat sink.
The current plastic housing only acts as an insulator.
By the way, Ive read a lot about the battery extenders. Without getting into the argument about whether they work to increase battery life or not, does anyone have any experience of their ability to radiation harden the p800?

Radiation harden?
Although I'm a believer in that the battery extenders do work, I don't think they do very much more than they claim (in fact they don't even do what they are supposed to as well as they are supposed to).
It all depends what you mean by radiation harden.

How about this?
Why not an application that UNDERclocks your phone to the minimum (say at stand by mode). Then, when it's working as a normal cell phone (make or receive a call), it will work just a little faster, fast enough so that it will not hava a noticeable effect on the comunication. And finaly, when you use it as PDA, agenda, pocket pc or whatever, it will work at normal (or OVERclocked) speed.
Just my simple idea to save bateries and still get the overclocking you wanted.

Overclocking the P800 might actually prevent the phone from working properly, depending on how the hardware is constructed. It is possible that the clock is used for other stuff than the cpu in the phone. And if it is used for timings and/or other stuff, it could potentially make the phone not work within GSM specs (which could lead to problems or make it totally useless in worst case).
I'm not saying that it is like this, but it could very well be that the generated clock frequency is used (divided or multiplied) for other functions than the cpu. If this is the case you don't want to mess with the clock frequency.

most likely
they wld want to fit as much stuff in as a lil amount of stuff
so the clock is prolly CPU related

@arubinst - I like that idea of underclocking it!
But really what the hell for?? Is the phone that slow for you??
Also I could be very wrong, if might be against the law also! When a phone comes out(in Australia) it must be tested by the network companies. These companies determent weather or not the phone lives up to their standards. However it is illegal to use a phone that has not been tested. Changing the p800 clock speed would be a different device. If you altered the phone and it affected the network, you could be in rather huge trouble!

Interesting point - I don't know the situation with regards to mobile phones, but in the UK it is illegal to connect any hardware to the British Telecom (BT) phone system that is not BT-approved, e.g. modems.

another point.
I have a sony vaio C1MT Picture book. The one with a camera on it. Well it uses a cruse chip. Not a Intel nor AMD. This thing runs much slower then the other two just to save power and to save heat. The whole object marketing tool to sell these types of laptops with this chip in it is to have a laptop that can out run any other laptop in saving power! The laptop is faster enough to do anything I ever want it to. Thats why some big powerful laptops have a life span of 1-2 hours where mine last about 4hours! No JOKE!
