Anyone tried this on 2.1.0.435 yet?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Candy[MAN]:
I have and am running now and so far so good. I was a little worried about the overclock as the older beta overclocked kernel gave me random WLOD. But this new stable one, being overclocked and all, is pretty stable for me.

Keeping my fingers crossed.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] vinss68:
hi all, tested since a half day on:

-ROM wolfbreak v008.1 ( honeycomb sj v4.7,new market)

-BB.67

All work fine, battery life's good. No lag ,no reboot...perfect. thx
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Candy[MAN]:
Stable or Beta?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dante2086:
Can anybody tell me the proper way to install this kernel, in case I missed something the first time around.

Do I need to wipe dalvik cache first, or something?

Thanks.

Sent from my rooted, JITed, X10, using my fingers, my eyes, one of my brain's four cores (Take that tegra 2), and Oh, the XDA app.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Candy[MAN]:
It is recommended as if not, you may be stuck on a boot loop until the mentioned action is done.

I wipe the dalvik cache and the cache partition.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] clixt:
When I installed the first kernel released by Z on 2.1.B.0.1, I wiped my Dalvik Cache after the installation.

I'm back to 2.1.0.435 and imma flash the latest kernel later today and i'll report back..

hey Z can u post your SetCpu settings? please i am new on this part (of using costum kernel) and what apps should i use to make my phone go a bit faster

FreeX10 beta4, baseband 65 using the new stable kernel 15072011, and had my first reboot...the phone was just lying there and BAMO...U MAD? logo appeared and then i realized what had happened. battery was about at 12% i think this is the first time...cuz the battery time resets after reboot and usually it shows like on for 8 hrs , 9 hrs, 1 day, etc..but now its 2 minutes..
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zdzihu:
Hi guys,

I've received several reports that certain X10s (including mine) can't handle even slight overclocking - this may cause all of those reboots/shutdowns/app crashes.

feelsbadman.jpg :(

From the next release, I'll get back to stable (non-oc/recommended as daily) + testing (ov/uv/stuff) scheme.

Also, has anyone tested the interactive governor in 1507? I am wondering if it's any good for us. It _should_ be superior to ondemand, but I can't see any difference...

Cheers,

z
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] iridaki:
Mine handles it very well, have yet to face even a reboot.

But just to be safe, it's good to go with 2 schemes. Thanks! :)

I am using 1507 and everything is smooth.

I could say a little smoother than 1407 with ondemand governor,

but frankly, don't take my word for it, it could just be a placebo. :D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bharadwaj1991:
I just put beta 15072011 on here, freex10 beta4, and let me tell you interactive governor...does something weird...it sticks to one freq...i went into setcpu set interactive and it was stuck on 245mhz...and then i manually changed min to 384 and it got stuck on that...it never changed...UNLESS interactive governor is supposed to do that...on demand does what it used to do...changes when i need more power...on demand...

So in theory, if download the lastest kernel, and set the setcpu setting's max frequency to 999mhz, it will not reboot??
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hzu:
Just reflashed the latest unstable and it's stable here for me. The interactive governor is indeed better as it uses every clocks based on the programs requirements. Its better rather than just jumping from 245MHz to 1113MHz. I'll say keep the governor.

@Z -- I am also facing the same problem like you after flashing it bit the problem was resolved after a reboot.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] clixt:
So I flashed the 14072011, went to SetCPU 2.2.4 and the scalings is only ondemand and performace. Why is that?

Also, If i want to go from stable to beta, do i just update it like normal?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hzu:
Interactive governor is only available in the 15072011 release.

See? This kind of posts always change a peaceful place to a burning forest.

@Z -- I'm having overheating issue while charging. This has not happened before. Maybe the interactive governor backported codes are not coded properly? Hope you can sort it out.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hzu:
Don't make your own speculations if you don't even tried it first, unless if you do, you should tell us why. The interactive governor is what makes is special.

Z, ever think of adding support for smartass governor?

Thanks, so just overwrite the stable kernel or something??

Or uninstall it first then flash the beta?

Hi z

After thorough testing or rather normal usage.... I have found that 15's interactive is much effective than 14, I can really see a great improvement in response time... For example in SE's life contacts app. But I didn't find much difference between 15's interactive and ondemand governors.

Great job on the kernels..... Btw I didn't have any trouble with the over clocking.... But there is a lot of battery drain..

Hi, im trying to flash 15.07 beta. Bootloop after 'U MAD'. Im on 2.1 bb 67. Tried wipe cache and dalvik prior and after flashing but no go. Back to stable kernel no problem. Any suggestion?

Ps. I have boot animation mod, autokiller and autorun manager installed.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] baz@gmx.co.uk:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] clixt:
Had my first reboot when I was using Vignette. It happened when I shifted to landscape mode.

I'm currently using 1407 and max freq is 998. IMO, its still stable as hell compared to the very first stable release.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] riginal:
Weird, on beta 15072011 I've set the governor to interactive & I'm experiencing such great battery life, shouldn't interactive drain the battery faster?

I'm on Cobrato's GB miui by the way

Overall everything seems great but I still find the free kernel 360 smoother & faster
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Time Machine:
me? if so, yeah, tried wiping everything but data, couldn't get it to work so i reflashed everything.

about the 1507 release, i was using it but strange enough, my phone would be laggy and slower in comparison to 0507 and i just changed it back, so far, everything's working smoothly :D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hzu:
Then it wouldn't be called interactive.

@Z -- tested charging my X10 again and the latest unstable seems to have overheating problems while charging.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] riginal:
So? What do you think? How is it working for you?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hzu:
It's working great and like I said in my earlier post(few pages back), from what I see, interactive mode utilizes all frequencies and it doesn't jump right away to the max frequency like on-demand does. That's my theory, but I'm not sure how it truly works, and yes, battery life does improved a lot when enabling interactive mode from my observation.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
some info on it:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] riginal:
Thanks Doom, I've searched & read that & a few other posts & tests indicating that interactive drains the battery faster, But for me battery life is very good, I Hope Z keeps it in its future releases

Interactive doesn't scale.

Using the July 15th BETA kernel, stock firmware (baseband 67 w/ 2.1).
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zymphonyx:
Hmm how about try to set the profile to "On Demand" while charging in setCPU. This might help with the overheating problem. Check CPU load while charging ;)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] G-FACE:
I see.. seems like you are not reading at all and just came here to troll. Please rewind back and follow the question wich I'm answering to.

I will make it easier for you. The question was, is there something special to flash when moving from stable to test.

No where we speak about differences in the kernels at all. I feel sorry for your blindness :eek:

Case closed!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] cronos808:
U can set the profile to On Demand AND go to profiles in setcpu and add charging with these settings : 768 max

245 min

Priority :100

If I Was Helpful. Pls Hit The Thanks Button
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zymphonyx:
What I meant is to use "On Demand" scaling in the profiles section while charging. And leave it to "Interactive" for other task. Sorry for not explaining properly earlier on :)

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] riginal:
I put the phone to charge while in interactive mode & noticed that cpu got stuck at max freq. (998) so maybe that's the reason for overheating

No problem detected so far, its working smooth and great :)

On Stock Rom with BB.67
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] riginal:
ok interactive is acting really weird, It gets stuck at max freq. (998), when I change the max freq. & set it to like 245 & hold on a second it gets stuck on 245, even if I change the max freq. back to 998 or any other freq. it remains on 245 & I mean it remains on it no matter what I try, I ran a quadrant & during it checked with setcpu occasionally & noticed that cpu freq. didn't change from 245, So it didn't come as a surprise that the score was 401 ha ha

I dunno, maybe it's normal & I'm missing the point entirely but frankly it doesn't seem normal to me so I changed back to on demand

zKernel_20072011 uploaded.

Changes:

- no more crash on boot ("boot animation->lockscreen->boot animation")

- voltages modified to ensure stability with all frequencies

- underclocked - added 19MHz frequency @ 0.9v

- interactive as default governor

zKernel_20072011.zip

It seems that interactive governor works pretty good for our devices, providing good balance between performance and battery life. For now I'm gonna use it as default for my kernels.

In case of any problems, please report in this thread :)

Awesome Z, Thanks

did you see my post at the top of this page? is it normal?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zdzihu:
Hi riginal,

I have never had it stuck on the one frequency nor faced overheating while charging.

Have you checked with another ROM? I do all my tests on 2.1 stock to avoid ROM-related issues.

Hi

Well frankly no I had only tested it with Cob's GB, but If i remember correctly it was working fine until I put the phone in charge & it got stuck in 998 so I had to change it to on demand while charging, after that when I switched back to interactive noticed the issue

Thanks for your priceless efforts, I'll test it on other roms too

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zdzihu:
Hi creage,

Most likely ROM/ramdisk issue, which ROM do you use? Some ROMs still have the ondemand governor options in hw_config.sh (it should be deprecated already) which may cause problems.

Also, if possible, please go into recovery after it reboots and upload the output of 'cat /proc/last_kmsg' to pastebin.com. Thanks in advance!

I can't even pass the Sony Ericsson logo, and I can't access xrecovery :( Seems I have to wait until I'm home to fix my phone.

I run Cobratos MIUI ROM, but can it really be ROM related that early in the boot process? Maybe I had a bad download, i don't know. zkernel 1407 worked fine before.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] realunited123:
Did you flash the zip from the OP ? If you did you should not have done that.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zdzihu:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] creage:
I'm running stock 435 FW with bb67, JIT applied, xRec 0.3 installed. And you know what... You rock)

I went to the hw_config to see if I find anything related to ramdisk, and found last line, which was insmoding undervolt module I've used on stock kernel. I commented it out, rebooted and flashed your new kernel, and everything goes fine - phone booted (quite fast BTW), and now I'm playing with new kernel.

I saw you removed the 998Mhz clocking - is it safe? I mean not each cpu could handle 1113... I'd like to have stock clocks as well, if possible.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] realunited123:
You dont have access to recovery because chargemon from OP is for xRecovery(/system/bin).Cobrato MIUI GB has FreeXperia recovery(/system/recovery).
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] qwer23:
Thanks for clarification! I knew I flashed wrong kernels before and didn't have any problems accessing xRecovery. But this explains what went wrong! I'm a perfect example that having over 800 posts doesn't save you from making the most stupid mistakes ^^

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] iridaki:
Hey Z,

is the new super-low frequency (19MHz :eek:) going to increase battery life

when the phone is used very lightly? Or it's just there as a proof-of-concept?

Also, the latest kernel has stable overclock because you increased the voltages?

Could that reduce battery times?

Thanks a lot for everything! :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zdzihu:
Technically it should increase the battery life, mostly because it's powered with only 0.9v (I'm experimenting with lowering that too). I am having problems testing it thoroughly because my phone is plugged into USB for most of the day.

Bear in mind that this freq is totally useless with ondemand governor - it took 30 seconds to unlock the screen (but interactive handles it flawlessly!).

Yep, I increased the voltage for the 1.13GHz. This would reduce the battery time if you set the cpufreq to performance / fixed 1.13GHz.

But since interactive governor tends to use all of the available frequencies, the time spent on max frequency is actually lower than with ondemand - therefore the battery life should be extended despite the voltage changes :)

Cheers,

z
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] iridaki:
WOW, sounds awesome! I will try it as soon as Doom modifies the ramdisk for custom ROMs! :)

PS: I once said that custom kernels are not much of an improvement in user-experience, but I feel embarrassed about it now, I take it back!!! :D :D :D

First issue on 2007 - while plugged on USB, battery gets very hot and was not charging. Tried to report it here and get WLOD.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zdzihu:
Hi, if battery got very hot, that means CPU was stuck on 1.13GHz.

There are multiple reasons for this, not necessarily kernel related.

- which ROM are you on? do you have any governor-related lines in hw_config?

- do you use SetCPU? what are your settings?

EDIT: Ok, just noticed you're on stock ROM... hmm so now only the question about SetCPU stands :)

Cheers,
