I've done some changes on vdd values and now i have a full stable system, no reboots at all. I did an increment of 25mV on 3 frequencies, 400MHz, 500MHz and 600MHz.

It's quite simple. You need to run su command to get root access from terminal, then just follow the guide that francisco posted on 1st page.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] nrdl:
Loureiro... Boas Noites :P

Can you share your version with me? My X5 only runs perfect with 17Set version (368/1200). After that all versions tested got constant reboots.

I've changed some words with Franco on FB and he told me to test some increases on voltage.

PS: agora em tugues :) Não estás no grupo X5 no Facebook?

Um abraço

Thanks!

Hi, I am new here , how i can install this kernel , like custom roms ? and where is the link to dl it
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:

Did anyone test the ram script? Is it good?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
By the time you wasted asking that you would already have it installed and tested.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
Probably but the last time i tried it didn't work for me
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PlanDreaM:
Did work for me.I have nore ram available

/*OT

Are you on drugs or something? please, get some mental help.

Who tha f**k are you to demand whatever you want? Did you pay franco to fix YOUR problems? NO!

He's developing for FREE! READ AGAIN! FOR FREE.

He didn't fix it for YOU? FIX YOURSELF! Don't know how? Not franco's problem. Figure out.

If you want anything from him, ASK POLITELY.

Buzz off

*OT/

well, after a day of testing, I've got 2 reboots with higher vdd values. not vdd problem on my device, it's something else.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] stockwell:
Just to add a little something: the reason why it was bootlooping was because the boot ramdisk used on that old kernel is way out of date, and simply won't work with the newer rom versions.

Remember that there are two parts in that boot.img - the ramdisk which contains the stuff to get your phone booted into android, and the linux kernel.

Trying to flash back the zip for franco.kernel won't fix it because the install is designed to change only the kernel and keep the ramdisk intact, which was modified by using the boot image from altwho.

Easy fix is to reinstall the ROM, shouldn't need to wipe data or anything, and then you can put franco.kernel on top of it if you wish.

I post this only to help general understanding for those who are interested, and how to fix it if they end up similarly afflicted.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
Was with CM7. Just tried Oxygen r4 and it only works with smoothass or minmax too, like CM7. other governors make my device reboot on each boot.

cheers

Edit: I'm using latest MIUI release, didn't have any reboot so far with smartassV2. I noticed that stockwell's kernel use the same vdd_levels as your latest kernel.

EDIT2:What a freak X5 i have. lol

I'm currently doing some test with Oxygen r4 with frequencies scalling with all governors, with default vdd values.

Governor: smartassV2, interactiveX, lazy, ondemand

min: 500

max: 600

OK

(i did this test because smoothass don't use these frequencies, nor minmax ofc)

Governor: smartassV2, InteractiveX, lazy, ondemand

min: 400

max: 600 (or any higher frequency)

REBOOT

Governor: minmax, smoothass

min: 400

max: 1000

OK

I/O scheduler used: sio

sorry where is download link on the franciscofranco's github source. i can't see

source page write "Sorry, there aren't any downloads for this repository."
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tommixoft:
I never had any reboot on any freq... don't know why people getting those. Franco was spending time on lowering voltage and now everything seems to be going in apposite direction where voltage will be higher then it was :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
It seems to me that the problem is on how governors manage frequency scalling, with the new frequency table.

Some devices dislike this new frequencies :D like mine.

as I cannot use anymore any custom rom without ffranco kernel, due to sensor lags, deep sleep problems, and so on so on, i'm using minmax without any issue.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Where it says ZIP

https://github.com/franciscofranco/u8800-kernel/zipball/master

I recommend setting up git if you want to get the latest changes without downloading a 100MB zip file or patching files manually.

This is the toolchain used to compile if I'm not wrong.

https://android-build.linaro.org/je....09-1-1-2011-09-16_16-16-56-linux-x86.tar.bz2

Btw I use this bash script to get latest changes from francos github, compile then package it and put it in my dropbox folder. From there I just download it with the Dropbox app.

#!/bin/bash
cd /home/a/u8800-kernel/
git pull
make -j8
cp /home/a/u8800-kernel/arch/arm/boot/zImage /home/a/kernel-build/kernel/zImage
cd /home/a/kernel-build

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] madmax59:
thank you for information
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Jacky444:
I dont wana sound stupid or somthing, but my question is it possible to download latest source of kernel and compile it on Huawei, like on phone it self?

Since phone is based on Linux right, so having right libs should work no?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
Lol no, not at all.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kohaku3n:
It seems 4oct franco kernel is causing random reboots when using with GPS.

I am using CM7 + franco. It was doing ok before I went on the trip.

BUt when I was traveling and turn on GPS and using map applications, random reboot starts to occur.

I have tried to clean the cache and davik cache, change the CPU governor to stock default frequency, the reboot is still happening.

Finally, I reflashed with CM7 without franco, android is stable even with GPS enabled.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Jacky444:
Ok just had to ask since I'm not really good at these stuff :P

I've been compiling kernel for my Linux servers few years back so I thought since i've read some where that android is based on Linux that it also includes right libs, but since its phone and its probably very much nerfed version of linux its not possible :).

Thanks for answer.

By the way I'm using ur kernel for some time now and im really happy with it =).

Am by the way, the pairing issue on MIUI (Pair doesnt save once u restart phone/bluetooth) is that related to driver issues or the operating system (MIUI) ?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
But we can install ubuntu on the phone maybe from there we can compile?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] AceDroidX:
Franco can we expect any update soon? :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] tiagovale2:
I'm pretty sure you already know this, but i'ma repeat:

We aren't suposed to ask for ETAs or something like that. When an update is ready to be released, I'm sure Francisco will release it. Wait, keep calm and enjoy the current version.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
There isn't much more to be done really, I already dedicated a lot of time into this kernel and I've changed/added everything I know :/
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iakoboss7:
what about this? is this change canceled?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Averell:
Thank Franco.

But you said a few days back that in the next release you'll be reverting the vdd configuration back. That put me in the anxious state :-)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
Oh yes, I forgot about that. I'll release it tomorrow then.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I think you forget about the module for logcat too.

Please do something about it, and give some directions on how we can install it.

Thanks.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] duartemv:
I know you said you don't do support to old versions.

But since you feel you've done all you know, and people liked this our that version better, why not make the last 4 our 5 versions available for download, with a brief summary of each one?

Aren't they all compatible with the latest oxygen releases?

I.e., the 29th of September Franco release was the better one for my phone, with R1. But because I erased the downloaded file,I cannot test it with R4...

Excellent job!

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] eddydc1:
Can i use this with stock rom?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Lol no because stock rom is Android 2.2 and this kernel is for 2.3. I guess it should work when official 2.3 is released whenever that happens... 4.0 is presented this tuesday :/
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] eddydc1:
Ok thanks for reply..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] duartemv:

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Jacky444:
Hi its me again :D

I've got a question, is there any news about MIUI & francisco's kernel for Android 3.0+ ?

Will this even be compatable with Ideos X5 since if i understood right all custom roms are based on original drivers or taken out of original ?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skyseel:
Android 3.0 is named Honeycomb, it's meant for tablets not phones ...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] eliotpoon:
Thank you very much. Flashed for MIUI with nice performance. But the camera still have problem when using camer360 and other third party cameras
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] genti7:
Thanks its really nice and fast. But can you please make a version of void kernel simply with v-sync enabled for us who have issues with it being disabled?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] d3xtr0:
testing fk-oxygen2, so far so good.. I was missing that governor minmax :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Kaboosey:
Cool! Now off to flash back to void. #draco and flash this kernel!

Thanks! ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] d3xtr0:
Camera is not working with fk-oxygen2 kernel.. it opens camera application but when shot it it freezes.. :( it was working before update kernel
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Kaboosey:
Edit: LOL, thought you're using it with void ROM, sorry.

But just to ensure, void. #draco doesn't have the problem. :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] rikobiff:
Same happened for me, worked with latest Oxygen.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Fruitgull:
After installing your amazing kernel for Miui I immediately, at the PIN prompt, noticed a big increase in performance! Thank you!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
That's something I still have to address. Building a kernel for 3 different roms is an hard task. I'll have to talk to dzo and stockwell about the camera as I may be missing some important code in the kernel. In the meantime please use Camera360 or other camera apps, so please bare with me. At least the performance is quite good and I'm pretty happy with it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cirnocirno:
I have a huge problem with the 20 July kernel. It has a flaw that I don't like it. If you play music and fast-forward too fast it freezes the whole phone and next thing that freezes the phone is while listening to music and plugging out the 3.5mm jacket it stops playing music and when trying again the phone is then frozen and will not respond only way it so take off battery and reboot.

Anyone knows what the problem might be, never happened with stockwells default MiUI kernel.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] wmi543:
Good job, Thanks !
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] randomparanoia:
Nice increase in performance with your kernel. Keep up the good work (:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] seifed:
Flashed it. Vsync is off, screen tearing everywhere and everything feels a bit laggy, and frame rate is locked at 55 fps.

The refresh rate of a regular TFT-LCD is 60 Hz. Typically, in some game where vsync is unacceptable because of lag your best option will be to have frame rate same as the refresh rate — ~60 fps (or multiplied — 120/180/etc). It will be pretty smooth but with some screen tearing.

So why is it locked at 55 in this kernel? It is definitely not smooth, not just because of lack of vsync.

With oxygen stock kernel that has vsync i ran some tests and frame rate was locked at 45 fps. Though, everything was smooth and fast, with no lag. But why is it 45? It is supposed to be synced with refresh rate which is 60 (well, definitely not 45).

So, can somebody explain me how these things works in Android world?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lourenzo:

wifi problem!!

Hi to everyone!!

I am new here and i want to ask if anybody knows why after update ( i installed void) wifi has an error

I must tell you i installed this first :Complete rom with all fixes and 1.5Ghz kernel (updated 15/5/11) and i had no problem at all!!

Sorry about my English but I am very new with android!!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
I still don't know to be honest, I raised a similar concern to dzo yesterday, I'm sure he'll find a way as I cannot.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cirnocirno:
Still wish to get this fixed !
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
For working camera in oxygen you need to compile without gemini, or you could try chmod 000 /dev/gemini0. As for the vsync, I don't know why it's so bad, I'll do some testing.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Fruitgull:
I think there's vsync issues with miui kernel as well. In some menus scrolling doesn't feel fluid. Can someone confirm?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mixail777:
Any ideas???
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Jacky444:

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iakoboss7:

@npc70199 actually its android 4.0 (ice cream sandwich)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] btrst:
Is there any significant difference between this and geno kernel on cm7? i mean ive tried both and couldnt tell which one is better. can any of you help me decide by being spesific about pros and cons?

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
There are a few apps in the market that help you do this but I dont think they are working with X5. Most of them are for Samsung's.

Just have a look, search for "Voltage" and see the results.

See if it helps
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
No, doesnt work like this. we must to have a kernel for this changes. i would like to be able to do that to.

we need to wait and see if some day we wil able to do that.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
hummm sry my ignorance then.

seing francisco's Github won't help at all?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
I've already done some changes on vdd_levels's file and the problem isn't there.

I don't know how to change the freq. table to a right one and compile the entire kernel. I don't have time to learn right now either, exams season aproaching :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PlanDreaM:
Franco can you compile this thing as well as a test version?Theoretically is a tavarua fm driver (but for froyo i don't know if it works or not or even if it is correct).

https://www.codeaurora.org/git/proj...ry/kernel/drivers/media/radio/radio-tavarua.c
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
If francisco is ok I can upload the latest compiled kernel (from his github). I guess he'll be busy with ICS now that he got a Nexus S :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
That's already in our kernel and compiled, you just need a userspace lib and app. I'm not going to waste time on this but you're welcome to try.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:
Although seems a little thing it could give us Radio, and that's something that even on stock ROM doesn't exist, so it should be looked as a good thing and an improvement, hope some dev look at this with good eyes :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PlanDreaM:
Thanks mate!I thought it wasn't.I am new to android so I can't figure out some things yet.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
I'll do it when I get more time, I have to change a few things first. Thanks though.

And Your Ramscript also?

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pretenderpt:
so much time since last kernel? is ffranco gone from ideos?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
No franco just doesn't have as much free time as before because of university and other personal issues.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pretenderpt:
ok mata you're great work is missed !!! :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Cinthiar:
What do you think still needs to be updated? To me the 04 kernel seems more than awesome. Franco has done pretty much everything that can be done without the official gb patch to our phone. I think the people that keep asking for updates are asking them only for the joy of updating something in their phones.

Tbh, I'm fine with the current state of our roms and kernels. There is no need to put out updates all the time when everything works good already. "Don't try to fix it when it already works" .
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
just quite school ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
That's the major reason, at least for me.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Cinthiar:
Ok that is important one. Everything works good with my phone atleast though. :) just overall it seems like people whine for updates even though they have no clue what needs to be updated. :P
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamelton:
cant agree more.. :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] priestx:
Also agree, my guess is that the lack of updates makes people think that the developers "moved on" and are not interested any more on this specific model.

i must say a great thanks to kajolas for show me the link.

i think that this link is for rom and not for kernel

MIUI, Oxygen and CM7: http://www.multiupload.com/YHBTKMYRVI

thats wy i ask the question.

mybe you shoul have write kernel for miui... link

we are not in your mind you know.

And something important for my. from the way that you answer it make me think that you are not a trasted person so wy i should trast your kernel.

consider that i wanted to donate to you .

not going to hapent

any way thanks again kajolas but i am not going to use this kernel any more.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Cinthiar:
If the thread is about the kernel why would there be download links for roms? And if you had clicked the link you would have seen the file is only couple of mb big and roms are usually 80-100mb. Don't expect everything to be brought to you on a gold plate. Even though in this case it is as franco made us a wonderful kernel...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] diogo.c:
I agree with you. Franco made a great kernel

esta é a prova que os portugueses fazem grandes coisas ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] socioan:
any way thank you all for your help

i am not going to say anything else you are the clever one

so all of you work for me to make kernel and rom and i will enjoy

having your work and geting everithing in plate

as you say i am an idiot.....

thank you workers
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ooie:
I really hope that Huawei will release Gingerbread officially on their devices. A 2.6.35.x kernel would be perfect.

Other than that, my phone works perfectly and I hope and assume everyone's pleased with the support given to the phone by the xda devs. For free I might add.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] clpdj:
Is this Thread dead? i know that Franco has a lot of work to do, but it's been a will without new release....

btw: Franco the Xperia Arc S uses the same cpu as we have in the IDEOS X5, and there is a kernel for 2.0 ghz overclock with it.... can you put that Freq. in the Table of your Kernel ?....

Bguards
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
No point in updating this as I suspect 2.3 should be out soon with a new kernel.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Yeah 2.3 will be out by the end of november.

Thanks in advance, regards
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
Franco can you explain me one thing, I know that the nexus s e much better than the x5, but how is possible that with your new kernel, that by the way I give you my complements because everyone is enjoying it, people are getting in qyandrant 3500 points with 100-1000 MHz. Is really much more optimize the phone compare to ours?? And you can use the new tricks that you have been using on the nexus kernel on ours on thr next realease

Thanks
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I want to report that your kernel doesn't supported on official clockwork recovery.
