don't know what to do!

I've tried again and again to get this kernel working but I don't know what could be going wrong! I have an AT&T Atrix running GB and I try to install the latest and correct AT&T version of the OC kernel.

I took the following steps:

Downloaded

Booted into CWM

Wiped Cache

Wiped Dalvik

Installed from SDcard

Rebooted

Now the phone won't even get to the boot animation, its just reboots and the boot screen or freezes at the boot screen. I keep having to revert back to the stock kernel to get the phone to boot.

What can I do to fix this?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Extras in next version?

So the next kernel is going to be 2.0 will it include the lower backlight level compile? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1245332

Would love to get a nice 1.3 or higher in 2.0 with a nice auto backlight that drops down to almost non existence! :D

I have found that the battery drain, even with undervolting and setting cpu profiles is fast compared to 1.7 1.1 oc. I get its the speed factor but seems the drain is more than it should be. Im unlocked and on 4.5.91 stock. Just wondered if anyone else noticed this as well. I went back to 1.7 for now. Note: other than losing widgets everything ran super smooth. KUDDOS

Can Undervolting Cause Wireless Instability?

I have been successful at aggressively undervolting my CPU. I have previously posted my results here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16995669&postcount=41

However, recently I have noticed that I am having a hard time browsing the web through my data or wifi connection at times. The connection will work just fine and then all of a sudden nothing will load. The signal strength generally remains the same the whole time and I am not really getting any errors.

My question is, can undervolting affect the performance of the radio? Even if there is no outward sign of crashing or other errors?

For the moment I have returned to normal voltages and everything seems to be working fine, but this has been too short of a test to be sure that the undervolting is causing the problem.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] vanstorm:
When i first flashed 1.9 battery burned out in about 8 hours even without using it. No run away apps in background but i thought it might have been wifi staying on. I was going to flash back to 1.7 but by the end of week battery was back to normal. Only thing i can attribute this to is the charge cycles and reboots.

hi faux. i'm a big fan of your kernels. i actually tested all and found that the stock 1Ghz is best suited for my needs. is it possible to create a kernel at stock clock (1GHz) with all the modifications/ updates/ tweaks as your latest v0.1.9. i'm an international user btw and loving your kernels above others.

Ok, I'm maybe going to look a touch stupid here, but......

I'm coming over from a galaxy s2, and flashing etc, all just seemed more simple on that. However, my atrix is a UK model, unlocked and rooted, currently running a French orange network stock 2.3.4 Rom.

if I flash this kernel, (gingerbread international version?) will I be able to overclock this Rom? Or is it a base to start from with other Roma?

sorry for sounding quite so dim.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Notorious544d:
Sorry for the very stupid question but I've just flashed this kernel but I can't tell if it's been successful.

Kernel version is:

[Atrix 4G Android Development] faux123:
Nope, you will see my name on it :D

I believe there are only so many speed slots, so to get 1200 and 1300 he "steals" the slots from lower speed slots.

You should be able to overclock it as the the ROM doesn't affect the OC ability as long as you have a supported kernel (I think).

[Atrix 4G Android Development] nitrox1:
Flash stock kernel for your phone (as in Mbr_d00 or mbr_1100 kernel) and wipe cache & dalvik.

Faux kernel doesn't like stock FR GB. Use eval's FR GB OC'd kernel flashable with fastboot if you want a little bit of OC'ing.

Faux's kernel will be fine with another rom though.

PS always have a nandroid ;D

Pps homebase seems nice.

Once your unlocked, and have CWM as your recovery, it couldn't be easier.

Just nandroid, wipe, and flash.

Nearly all roms except that FR GB, work on faux's kernel and use it as a base, as is a unified kernel (one kernel for all variant atrixs out there, international at&t etc.)

CM7, has it's own faux kernel.

That FR GB, was the original international rom, I used it for a while, was good.

Is there a undervolt guide for 1.9
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nitrox1:
Start with -25mV, don't set it to apply at boot, do a stress test from setcpu, and see "how low can you go".

Not all cpu's are built the same, and you'll find what will work for you, when it works, then apply at boot. This prevents you from getting suck in abooting loop.

Hey faux great kernel, i have a question/request, if you get the time could you make your kernel but with stock speeds/volts (or just an OC to 1.1ghz) , the reason why i ask is because some cannot use setcpu to limit the max speed, for some reason whatsoever is set as max the cpu always goes to the max speed in the kernel and not the set max speed,interestingly though UV works fine.

Swyped from "Mount" Olympus
[Atrix 4G Android Development] BlackX777:
I prefer a optimized kernel without fixed Overclocking but undervoltage capability.

Due the following reasons:

1. CPU OC heats up the phone and drains the battery. Even with UV.

2. Overclock the RAM among spec. is most unstable.

You can get FCs, reboots, graphics errors and file system corruptions.

(ECC is not unless)

3. The GPU is the fastest OC is nonsense also though 1.

The games are fast enough.

4. It needs more stress test and there are no good tools like furmark, memtest and prime.

5. Even with OC 1080p recording has lags

6. All the OC makes UV useless. The battery is the limiator so we want no workstation. Its like you put a BMW motor on a mofa.:D

A kernel is available with 1.1 and all the mods. You can undervolt and leave this thread. I run alien and 1.3 over with no battery issues.Battery issue posts need deleted.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] crnkoj:
Please dont flame. stock kernel doesnt have several of the optimizarions/features of this kernel. If you only care about highest OC, dont assume all do :) even with good battery life i (and im sure many others) still prefer another few hours with stock/minorly oced speeds as to max overclock, partially i prefer stock or UV aswell since for 1.3ghz the voltage is increased by 20% or more - which might shorten the lifespan of the SoC, especially with the poor cooling the phone has. Dont be afraid that you wont get new, higher ocs (if possible) if he makes a kernel with lower speeds for the others.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Paschalis:
Can we go down to 128 mhz?

Dual core with 128 on idle time, will be good enough for battery savings, and a combination with smartass governor, if somebody ports it, will save our terrible battery problem..

I, too, would prefer a stock frequency kernel but with all of the other optimizations and undervolt capability.

Faux's work on the kernels had been nothing short of spectacular.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ricardowec:
Disagree with you completely:

1. I run 0.1.9 and t does not drain the battery at all. Better if you use a rom based on ext4. My Atrix uses less battery with Faux´s than with stockl

2. This Kernel is the most stable piece of code you can run in this gadget. I haven't had a single reboot since I started using it.

3. Same as 1

4. Seems like you dont know what your are taking about.

5. It depends on the Rom and camera software. The D3 does not lag at all with this Kernel.

6. Again you don't know what you are talking about and you are insulting the hard work put into this code that is being use widely across the Android OS.

Suggest you go elsewhere. Your comments stink.

I'm pretty sure his comment was valid and you just don't like what he has to say. Don't be a **** cause he has his own opinion.

Sorry for being MIA for a while. I have been really busy @ work lately and will continue to be so until end of September. I have started my kernel hack again for Atrix late last night with the few precious spare time I had. I have adjusted the frequency tables to be more user friendly and I am still investigating why the max clock value once in a while gets set back to OC max (1.3 GHz). I believe I should have it solved in a couple of days (of course pending on how much spare time I have after work). Expect a new version 020 in a few days.

Oh, 1 more thing (Steve J like :p):

I have heard all the request for a stock frequency kernel with all my patches applied. I will also release a stock frequency kernel @ 1.0 GHz for those who prefer the features I provided but without OC at all.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] zeropants:
Did the CM7 kernel get pulled?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] faux123:
Just a quick Info dump:

Just going through the code and realized why SetCPU failed to keep the clock frequencies set properly. SetCPU has NOT been designed to work with dual core properly. It only sets the scaling_max_frequency for cpu0 (master CPU) and not for cpu1 (slave). When under load, cpu1 gets awaken by the system, but it's frequencies are still the old 1.3 GHz and since Tegra2 is a synchronous SMP design, the scaler would use the highest frequency again (this case 1.3 GHz). This is why after playing games, or apps that needed the 2nd cpu would cause the system clock to revert to original default 1.3 GHz even when you set it via SetCPU to something lower.

This is not easy to fix, when SMP is involved. I have tried a few hax already and still unable to tame the 2 headed beast. I will continue to work on it or find an alternative solution to SetCPU's issues

---------- Post added at 06:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:13 AM ----------

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Twist79:

I downloaded Aura #8 which came preinstalled with Faux 0.1.7 - which only OC's to 1.1Ghz. It is still available for download as a short term release so for now, you could check that out as newer releases are about stability of the 1.3Ghz OC.

Couple of questions/comments on the upcoming 0.2.0 as per your OP

What is the AVP? (sorry for my ignorance)

As you mentioned in another post, setCPU was not designed for the dual headed monster, therefore, don't you need and updated/different tool for the user to control OC and UV ?

Provided you can control the OC to stock freqs in the current Kenel (19), do you still need a special development for those who ask for an optimized but not OCd Kernel?

Guys,

I am having the widgets problem, all are disappearing after a reboot. I have tried running 0.16, 0.17 and 0.19 and this still happens. Tried fixing permissions via CWM and RomManager, tried clearing caches and still happening

I think this is kernel related because when I install stock kernel, widgets remain even after many reboots.
