Nothing to do with the kernel.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sensimilla:
Brilliant update.

For the first time BBC iPlayer (flash based) works without garbage all over the screen. I am so happy. Hardware video acceleration is working too.

Many, many thanks to you, dzo, genokolar, stockwell and all the others who have contributed to improving our phones. Your time and hard work is very much appreciated.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] arveparve:
Okey, probably an oxygen issue then
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zerog2:
Hi. Thanks for your new kernel.

Yesterday I have updated my U8800 to latest Oxygen rom (r3) and your kernel (Sept 29).

After that, most system apps cannot read the time/percentage for each CPU frequency anymore. I am not sure it is kernel or rom issue.

Another question, if I want to return original oxygen kernel to U8800, do I just replace boot.img into root folder? or I required to reflash the rom again?

Thanks
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iakoboss7:
you have to reflash the rom again, but u dont need to...

this problem that apps cant read cpu frequency is solved with his last version, just redownload and install it again.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] duartemv:
ust updated to latest R3 and FFranco and I'm having some issues...

1. Reboots... don't know if it's ROM or FKernel related. I'll go back to installing just the ROM and see if it's still happening.

2. Using stock camera. I like the new video codec, but I'm having some issues with sound quality. Before H264, sound quality was really good, but after installing R2a, I got this clicking background noises during video and also some background noise.

With R3 and Franco Kernel, the clicking noise disappeared but the background noise remains.

I'm using Youtube quality.

EDIT: Reverted to R3 and:

1. Reboots are gone.

2. Stil having background noise! I know this is ROM related, but it makes sense to mention it.

EDIT2: Tried reinstalling Franco Kernel with Oxygen R3, cleaning Dalvik cache and battery stats, and got a reboot within a minute... Reverting back to Oxygen R3.

Also, the first time I installed this combination, the phone heated up a bit. After reverting to R3, it cooled back down to normal.

Thanks!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lock76pt:
I'm having the exact same problem but with MIUI 1.9.23
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
that's because vdd values are too low for your device. You have to raise them up.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lock76pt:
By default the latest version uses:

Min: 400

Max: 1000

smartassV2

That's what i have.

Had to go back to stock MIUI 1.9.23 kernel for the phone to work.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Averell:
Thanks Franco.

Regarding the voltages, is that the lower Vdd, the less power consumption?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
yes, it should be like that. but if it's too low, you loose stability.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Puzzlegirl:
What ROM are you using and how did you get flash to work? Mine's still garbage, alas. I'm using latest Oxygen R3 plus 29 Sep Franco kernel.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
In my case, I use CM7 and have no problems with flash... anyway, no matter what ROM you're using, if you have problems with stock browser, try opera mobile, flash will certainly work with that.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] duartemv:
Was that message intended for me, regarding the video issues?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] duartemv:
Tried installing latest Franco kernel and got another reboot within a minute...

Is there anything I can do to help you guys figure out how to solve this? Is there a log file I can provide?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skyseel:
Have you tried wiping everything, installing STOCK ROM 138, then restore your data?

I only had reboot once or twice in 2 months since im using oxygen + franco kernel. Otherwise than that, my phone is rock solid.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] duartemv:
Me too...I've been using that combination the last couple of months without problems. But this last F kernel is creating problems. I could un install everything, but oxygen r3 is working fine, so I'll keep with it. It doesn't have the battery performance of fkernel, but I can live with it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] AceDroidX:
I was disappointed with 24.7 release. I hope the latest one will be as good as the previous ones. :-P

Sent from my u8800
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
My phone keeps rebooting with latest release (29 SEP) in Oxygen and Cyanogen, which didn't happen in their stock kernel. Haven't tested MIUI.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PlanDreaM:
Again, change your voltages.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
New release is up in the first post.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zerog2:
Thanks. I am going to try this.

I hope this version fixed the frequency history (I cannot see any frequency usage in some apps).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:
Testing it... So far so good
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Kajolas:
Yes, it fixed that issue for me.

Thanks, until now charging and now reboot :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] shantam:
Franco can you unlock fps limiter and lock it to 60fps

And some little gpu overclocking in next kernel
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Cinthiar:
Where do you need the extra fps in phone? :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
Good ideia. If could be possible I would be appreciate
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] shantam:
Everyone need for extra smoothness and where games lag it should solve this
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] shantam:
Yes it will be gud
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
Applied this new version, all benches decreased dramatically.

What did you change for this loss of performance?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] shantam:
I also getting low quadrant score 1907 on 1ghz and 2030 on 800 mhz
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Hayden18:
I got 3384 at 1.8 GHz

And 2248 at 1 GHz
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
Not good...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
It's fine for me. You people wanted stability, there you have your stability, you can't have it all.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
Never 1 single time I find instability of one of your kernels.

Obviously I’m not running my device at 1.5Ghz or more. **** that. I want him to last not to blow up after few weeks. Is this the stability you talk about?

Friend please build a good one for me to runs like hell. I’m sure will be stable as well.

With tweaks similar to the ones that Knzo applied in OEX ;) Stable and fast!

I don't mind to test it!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Vk_:
Franco, is your RAMscript still compatible/appliable?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Hayden18:
How so..?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
I don't have time for special builds. It was unstable for some users with random reboots due to low voltage and now it's fixed. It runs like hell like before, it's not by losing 100 points in a ****ing stupid benchmark that it doesn't run the same.

Yes.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
MIUI + 29/9 kernel antutu always between 2900 - 3050 (max I got)

MIUI + 04/10 kernel antutu always between 2550 - 2671 (mx I got)

This is with cpu at 1Ghz.

Its not just 100points difference
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] shantam:
Franco you didnt answered my pm
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Averell:
Franco will need to have one build for low battery consumption, another for stability, and another for performance :-)

Thanks a lot for all of your builds, Franco.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] duartemv:
- smartass v2 is still unstable.

- InteractiveX also gave a reboot while restoring an app with TB.

-minmax seems to work fine, but I'll do some testing later.

-currently using smoothass to see how it goes.

after rebooting, I checked the battery usage, and it was mainly at 1000mhz on both schemes.

I have the phone set to 400-1200mhz.

Keep it up!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
Is there anyone with connection problem. Ian losing network all the time :(
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Loureiro:
smoothass default instead of minmax right?

with smoothass I didn't have random reboots.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
francisco, I have installed the new recovery 5.0.2.3 and after this I tried to flash your new kernel several times and in recovery it’s giving the message that was done successfully but when I enter the system and go to settings it still showing the previous kernel...

Its your kernel incompatible with the new Recovery image?

Edit:

Been making test all and apparently is not just the last kernel that won’t work with this new recovery. All your previous ones don’t work either.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
It's obviously incompatible at this point, will release an update later to make it work with the new recovery.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
Ok. I have reverted the recovery until you release a compatible update. Make one very very very tweaked ehrheh
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] inculto:
i dont agree make one very very very stable loool but is my opinion

good work ffranco and druida ( for active work on OUR problems )
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
very very very stable are all of them.

Never had a single problem, so I dont know what instability people talk about.

And I try Oxygen, CM7 and MIUI always it latest Francisco kernel = zero instability.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] izzoe:
Same with me.. Always update when the kernel update.. Never had issue with CM7(currently running), Oxygen or MIUI..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
leave them, they are poor devils that like to ride their bicycles with those 2 helping wheals in the back so they don’t fall in the floor lolololol

real men like to live fast and hard and accept the consequences for it :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Invicta:
latest version of francos kernels works perfect with latest cm7. excellent work franco, i thank you for it :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
I know, but to be honest I haven't changed anything that could compromise phone's performance. Only thing I changed was from BFQ scheduler to Simple I/O because I found a nice tweak for it and it played along nicely. Appart from that nothing that could change the performance.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] demolition23:
Keep up the good work Franco!

Using the new kernel all day and having no problem!

TNX!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iakoboss7:

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
Ok this kernel should be avaliable in Rom Manager anytime soon, just waiting on approval since it's my first upload there.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mesnati:
Hi FF!

When you and Stockwell saying "anytime soon". Which time exactly you are talking about? Few days, month, few months ?

Big thanks!

S.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
Probably some hours shouldn't be long I hope.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Averell:
I got one reboot today, since your release of Oct 04.

What's the Vcc setting compared between Oct04 and Sep17?

Thanks!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
waiting for their approval??? c'mon ffranco you should be proud of your work, they should be waiting for your approval no you from them. They didn't want to make X5 compatible with rom manager in the first place and had to be stockwell doing their job. **** rom manager and respective dev.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iakoboss7:
i think u got things wrong mate...

hdrjackob has nothing to do with rom manager developer (cause thats what u are probably talking about..).. u should re-read their conversation.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
Chill out, don't mess things up. They have to approve me as a developer first or otherwise everyone would just log into their site and upload whatever...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] spirosbond:
Why I don't have the simple scheduler at the no-frills CPU list? I only have noop bfq vr and sio...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
Sio = Simple io scheduler.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] spirosbond:
Oups... :-D thanks a lot
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ValenteL:
Noop and Sio are the same?

"Noop isn't actually that bad. It's a simple I/O Scheduler and when it comes to Android, the simplest the better."

See this about Noop here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1242323

PS: My question is because the No-Frills Cpu has only the Noop in my tablet honeycomb Blades2 kernel.

Thanks
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
Noop and Simple I/O scheduler are different things, two separate schedulers.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] stockwell:
Yeah lol don't get angry at Koush (After all, he created both rom manager and clockwork mod recovery), he is a great, great man. Also don't get angry at Jacob, be happy that it's going to be available soon.

The process to approve developers is that they have to be manually accepted (to make sure that you don't just upload a virus..) and then once accepted the manifest needs to be updated on Koush's github.

The process of updating and uploading the manifest is automated but it's not instant. I also imagine that he needs to set it up so that our device even has a manifest, which is still probably yet to be done.

It will probably be a day or two before its all up and running.

I got to say this 04 oct version is a battery killer for me, only in standby mode it drained 20% in 3,5 hours. first time this happens with franco kernel in my phone. maybe its because low freq is 400mhz idk

Sorry my mistake. 1.9.23 - miui_u8800-240911-fix.zip
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
so you are using 1.9.30.

That one in the link was the launcher fix for initial 1.9.30.

Its a 1.9.30 fixed ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mesnati:
Don't know what are you trying to say ... IT is miui_u8800-240911-fix.zip - thus fixed MIUI 1.9.23 ... what it's not clear to you?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
Man you are so arrogant and stupid. I can see by all your post now.

You don’t listen nor want to learn.

Even then I try to explain you one last time my poor devil:

If what you have installed is the version from the link you placed on your post, you then have the version 1.9.30 fixed.

The version 1.9.30 was release on the 04/09/2011 and then, in the same day, was also released a version with the fix for the launcher issue. This version is the one your link direct us.

1.9.23 was, therefore, 2 releases ago.

FF ... i use MIUI and your kernel since 4/10 ... Seems to be good, but today, when listening music, the phone crashes 3 times, and the phone really don't go to deep sleep after 4h ... 4h and always using the 800 MHz frequency ... any clues?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
If you're listening to music obviously the phone doesn't go into deep sleep -.-
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:
yeah sure, not what I want to say... After listening to music, and the 3 crashes, the phone never went to deep sleep, although i wasn't doing anything on it... just on classes and it never sleep. Now I charged it and everything seems fine... During the charging it sleeps again...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
I have no idea to be honest, maybe an app just sits there without letting the phone to sleep.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] shantam:
Hey franco plz unlock fps limit 60 and some gpu overclock
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] NeostarNeko:
I like the sound of gpu overclock, but is this possible?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RaNd.gr:
Since the GPU is "part" of the CPU u get both overclocked.

Search a bit the forums and you will find more details about it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ArbiterGR:
@Franco: I don't know if this is the right place to ask. But could you take a look into Bluetooth support ? making calls or using a2dp to listen to music results in lots and i mean lots of dropouts during move. Something that has not been happening with stock rom or my previous htc wildfire.

Loving your newest kernel btw ;)

Save and reboot.

Go make a neocore benchmark and cry ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
That line breaks a lot of things, scrolling gets ****ed too, so no point in using it besides benchmarking.

And no I'm not adding GPU overclocking - first because I don't know how to do it and secondly because it's a waste of time.

About the 60 fps limit ****, if people searched before asking it would be simple - this ****ing screen refresh rate is capped to 44,7 hz, and it doesn't do higher fps because of that, it's an hardware limitation.

I tried 04_Oct_Kernel_2 but Bluetooth doesn't work.

Anyone else having this Issue?

One last thing i would like are lower frequencies like 200Mhz and 300Mhz.

@franciscofranco

I Love your Kernel, it uses less Energy then the Kernel that comes with Oxygen_r3.

I hope you will release many more Kernels that suit everyones desire.

Maybe Huawei will buy one of your releases to make it an update for Everyone ;)

After a lot of testing next kernel will have the old frequency table again. This way it's not stable for everyone, even I have random hot reboots and I don't want that, so it will be back to it's old way.

Ok kernel is avaliable on Rom Manager. During the week it's listed as a Free download, during weekends it's Premium - that's how Rom Manager has it built, its not my fault. Enjoy.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I just tried before 30 minutes to downloaded but get error that needs premium for that.

I didn't want to use rom manager but with cm recovery your kernel cannot be flashed any more. I tried using cm recovery both from native way(replace recovery.img) and from rom manager(reboot to recovery), but doesn't work. I tried a lot of times, and installation seems to be successful every time, but after reboot the old kernel still loaded.

I could successfully flash your kernel again, after I return to previous recovery(the yellow font one).

Wait what? You are the one badmouthing his kernel in an other topic, and then you have the guts to ask him for help when you install a tweaked kernel dated July 5 on top of a new ROM coupled with a new Oct 4 kernel?

Are you serious?

I don't want anymore devs leaving XDA, but with the serious lack of respect for the devs and whiny "customers" who won't bother reading changelogs and dates I wouldn't be surprised if that would happen. I've already witnessed that a number of times in the Desire ROM community, and having that happen to our small Ideos X5 community would be a disaster.
