haha i know... the whole reverting back to a earlier hboot gain s-off is a little above me. i sh@t myself carrying out lyndts method of unlocking bootloader with HTC dev.

does that mean i can't install this kernal? with s-on as would like to OC a bit to see how it handles the lag when go laucher reverts from landscape to portrait when in homescreens.

[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
To answer your original question, yes if this kernel has a boot.img file in it, you would need to flash it manually in FASTBOOT USB mode just like you would if you flashed a custom ROM.
[HTC Incredible S] addyhash:
jujst d/l'd latest v10, and unzipped, doesn't look to be a boot img file.. just one called mkbootimg., ;(
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Looks like it is time to get true S-OFF then, huh?
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
What about flashing zimage as amidabudda was talking about in the ics kernel thread?

You could flash the kernel in recovery first to get the modules installed and then reboot straight to fastboot and flash the zimage

fastboot flash zimage zImage
fastboot reboot
[HTC Incredible S] addyhash:
so does that mean i should put a copy of that zimage file in my c:/android folder to flash via command prompt?, or will it automatically find it's location on sd/mmc in kernal folder/?

Addy
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
You would need to put it in the c:\android folder.
[HTC Incredible S] addyhash:
thanks guys !

Dam that sat on the quietly brilliant screen for a while phew...

installed no frills cpu control, and highest setting is 1024...

oh well

Addy
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
If the highest setting is 1024, that means it didn't work. Tpbklake had a theory a while ago about booting recovery from fastboot to flash kernels. I don't think it ever got confirmed but you might want to try it.

Put a copy of your favourite recovery in your android dir and

fastboot boot recovery.img

then flash the kernel zip file normally.
[HTC Incredible S] addyhash:
you lost me a bit there... sorry for all the noob questions, do you mean my original recovery image when i installed CWM, ( Lynts link to CWM in his guide is no longer valid, and i can't find where i saved it... ) or do i just boot to recovery and create a backup ( which will save a new recovery image on my sd card in the cwm folder ) and then put that image in the c:\ android folder ...

it this is the case, do i still push zimage through command prompt after falshing zip file?

Addy
[HTC Incredible S] addyhash:
ok, i created a nandroid backup with CWM, copied the boot img file from that backup to c:\android folder and then flashed that image in command prompt... that pretty much made CWM load up, so from there i installed zip from sd ( forgot about cache & delvik wipe ) powered down and charging light wouldn't go out and couldn't get phone to even switch on, pulled battery, and then rebooted to fastboot and tried to push zimage again and got FAILED <remote: signature verify fail > ... rebooted phone normally and is working but still on 1024 max, didn't get any errors when flashing boot image, or any errors when installing zip from sd...

i can never remember if i wipe before installing zip from sd or after... dunno if that's why i got the error when flashing zimage, but at least phone booted lol...

Addy
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Kernel stays on your sdcard, download latest cwm http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img to your fastboot dir on your pc and rename it to recovery.img for ease of use.

Reboot phone to bootloader, fastboot mode and open a cmd window. Navigate to your fastboot directory and type command fastboot boot recovery.img. The cwm that you just downloaded should load on the phone.

Choose install zip from sdcard, navigate to the kernel and flash it. You will probably need to wipe cache and dalvik. Then reboot and you're done.

This is theoretical for this device at the moment until you confirm its working. The worst that can happen is that you may need to restore your Rom backup so make a new one just in case.
[HTC Incredible S] addyhash:
carried out exactly as you posted... cheers for the newer version of cwm, mine was v4.0.1.4 lol... but still highest frequency is 1024...

cheers

Do an advanced restore, not sure what its called in cwm. Restore system and problem should go away.
[HTC Incredible S] addyhash:

Thanks for all your help !

[HTC Incredible S] addyhash:
can't help myself, still prefer the zippiness of gingerbread, but want the abaility to oc ... so had another shot at installing this kernal ...

i thought i would try the same procedure that is used for s-on users wanting the xs ics kernal by L0st profit:

but got installation failed when it tried to create the new boot.img...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Edit:

even through the installation fails... the newboot .img file is created on the sd... so i went back in and re-modified the mkbootimg.sk file back to 'tmp', reinsalled via recovery,installs without error, and I then booted back to fastboot and pushed newboot.img via command prompt and voila !! it works with overclock, but still one final hurdle, still getting wifi error, tried to copy and paste bcm4329.ko file using es file explorer, but no joy...

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hi m-deejay,

thank you so much for the kernel, looking forward flashing your rom next ;)

Could you please tell me where you got the kernel source from? You state it's based on htc's kernel sources.. did they release them for gingerbread somewhere, were they leaked, or did you patch them manually?

Thank you!

still blackscreen

but it's reacting on ADB
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
You say it also happens when you don't use setcpu at all?

I didn't yet install it and don't have that problem..
[HTC Incredible S] qvert:
i switched setcpu off... i try uninstalling it and lets see

if it's really a voltage problem i guess it doesnt need to be on every device, just some of them because every SOC is different a little bit
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Could it be related to one of the governors?
[HTC Incredible S] qvert:
uninstalled setcpu

reboot

still the same problem with the black screen
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
installed setcpu, let it auto detect settings. set 13xx mhz max.

let the phone become idle enough for the screen to switch off -> no problem

strange. even more strange that you experience the problem even with setcpu uninstalled.. maybe it messed with your sysctl.conf?
[HTC Incredible S] qvert:
but nerotix is having the same issues

which rom are u using?

i am using android revolution hd
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Yes it's quite strange.

I just switched to Revolution HD as well + nosense++

Edit: would be extremely strange if there was an issue with sense or the sense lock screen :D

I have bad luck with my hardware though.. applied 17xxmhz, rebooted and it froze at sim unlock screen.

Will try 1500 next.
[HTC Incredible S] mdeejay:
oc+screen on/off animations+brightness > 50% = no wake lag
oc+screen on/off animations+brightness < 50% = wake lag

it isnt ideal, but get a program called screen filter from the market to apply a lesser brightness when above 50% so you dont experience the wake lag.

Enjoy.
[HTC Incredible S] qvert:
i will test

btw is there a way to flash a stock kernel?

so that i don't need to always use a nandroid backup?

edit: i put the brightness to 100% and it still isnt working
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
If you click on advanced restore, you could restore just "boot" and use any nandroid backup you already have..
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
I reflashed only Revolution HD without removing anything, but also without wipe.

Flashed kernel_IS_test2 and didn't have this issue..

that's so strange.. anyone could think of an explanation?
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Your Kernel rocks! Seems to run stable for me at 1600mhz.

Eagerly awaiting your rom + kernel - crt animation (as long as the lights aren't fixed) ;)
[HTC Incredible S] qvert:
so no one else is testing beside me and madmaxx82 ?

maybe if some others test we can locate the error a little bit easier
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Yes please someone join trying the kernel.

Qvert, did you get a logcat from the time the screen turns black and one from where it doesn't wake up anymore?
[HTC Incredible S] qvert:
ahh i can give it a try when i am home

currently in the office :-D
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Why? At work is the best time to do things like that! :D

Little update which isn't really needed: phone still stable with your kernel m-deejay with a 1600Mhz oc. Haven't experienced any issues.

I'm really excited to know why there is this screen issue for qvert and nerotix.
[HTC Incredible S] Bantu85:
I've been testing this kernel as well(along with your rom). I can confirm the same issues these guys are having... if i let the screen turn off on its own, the phone becomes unresponsive and, when trying to unlock it, it reboots itself.

In addition, when opening the Weather app, the animation is not visible (it works fine when using your rom+stock kernel) and after about 5 seconds phone reboots. Have tried it without SetCPU and with (smartass governor).

In addition, before flashing the test kernel, I made a nand backup of your rom with stock. Trying to restore just the boot partition really messed things up... no network or wifi communication was working (it just said "Error" near the setting to turn each one on). Restoring the full nand worked perfectly.

Will now get some logcats for you on the weather and blank screen.
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Did you try with a 1200mhz oc?

Do you guys enable the perflock disabler option in setcpu? (I don't as I'm sure the kernel is compiled without and oc works)
[HTC Incredible S] Bantu85:
I think it may be animation related... because i can run setcpu on "stress test" mode for 2 minutes without any errors or lock ups... but as soon as the screen tries to do anything, phone resets.
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
I'll make a nandroid and upload it.. if you have time, could you test that?
[HTC Incredible S] Bantu85:
YouTube also causes phone to reset... and viewing videos in gallery... this is at a 1200 oc, with ondemand scheduler
[HTC Incredible S] Bantu85:
Sure.. just upload it and i'll see what happens.

Could you also post a logcat when your screen goes blank and one when you try to unlock it again?
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Okay, I didn't test playing videos with the second testkernel. Just tested whether the camera was actually displaying something..

I noticed that I have the exact same issues like you with playing movies now.

It's kernel_IS_test2 which doesn't work. There seems to be a problem with accessing the sdcard as well I guess..

I reflashed the first testkernel where videos and camera worked and everything's fine!

This one does work: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14246487&postcount=47

So if that also works for you, the only remaining strangeness is the screen..

Of course I uploaded the wrong nandroid..

I'm reuploading it now. I reset it to factory defaults.. would be nice to know if it works for you the same as for me..

@m-deejay: I pray you still have the sources for that one ;)

[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Yes, while wifi is on, screen doesn't wake up.

With wifi off however it does work.

Did all of you test that with wifi on all the time or did it fail with wifi off as well?

In case it fails for you with wifi off too, it would be interesting what happens if you used my nandroid:

[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
I just uploaded it because MDJ wanted to modify a recovery.

I don't know of any reason to flash this now, but if you really want to you can use flash_image:

Unzip it on your sdcard and start an adb shell with su and type:

/data/data/com.koushikdutta.rommanager/files/flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery_3.2.0.0.img
[HTC Incredible S] qvert:
could you add a better wifi signal tolerance?

afaik since 2.3.3 htc is cutting the wifi when the signal drops below a special db amount, which results in a shorter wifi range than before?
