what is the GPS fix for that is listed in the source code documentation for .9?

Thankss
[EVO 4G Android Development] pmacevad:
Wanted to say that this is the best sense kernel I have run on my EVO, period. I have used several different kernels and this one (aggressive freedom v0.9) has given me the most stable results and best battery life. I honestly can say that I pretty much live on my phone and use it for everything from calls, texts, internet, tether (wireless and usb) videos, music, multiple apps (tapatalk of course too :)), amongst other things. I have this thing underclocked 245-537mhz interactiveX and can go a whole day on a single charge with moderate to heavy use (I'm currently at 15 hrs 48 mins with heavy use today). Things run smooth underclocked (music and vids) and the phone stays cool. It's also good to be able to overclock if I need it (I'm stable at 1157mhz). Thanks for your solid work lithid, can't wait for 1.0!

[EVO 4G Android Development] bluedawgalex:
well i finally got enough battery to last me thru the day.. i got up at around 9 ish and took it off the charger.. i went to school..played music thru the bluetooth for around 2 hours..texted all day at school..made a few phone calls.. text some more.. played music again for an hr and a half at the gym..& txt a few more times and it finally got to 2 percent about 5 min. ago

im running mik 2.5 and agressive freedom 0.9..interactivex 245/768

here are a few snapshots :D

i would like to thank everyone that helped me thru the process! :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigblueshock:
Weird... I have a bad wake-lock issue now ever since .9 =/ Even after fresh reboot my phone will stay awake, very weird. Android OS is the culprit. I am using Aggressive.

Will have to go back to 8.5 and see what happens

Edit: Is there an app I can use to find out exactly what's causing my phone to stay awake?

I did not download universal, but the version for synergy non-gmode since that is the version of ROM I am running. All caches were wiped 3 times before installing.

The other version is for synergy nightly. Which synergy non godmode isn't. Use universal.

Results from first full day with 0.9 Freedom:

Battery life seemed fine.

Charged over night and part of the day w/o any reboots or black screens.

But last night when I was using the browser and just reading some news (flash off), the phone hung and black screened on me (had to battery pull). WiFi on, Bluetooth off, GPS off, 4g off, InteractiveX, no setCpu profiles, screen minimal brightness manual, not charging. Perhaps it was related to what I was doing and not a kernel issue. But we'll see how it goes today and tomorrow...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greatness83:
I have a quick question....

as far as this:

ithid@MPDI:~/Development/Htc-Sense-Freedom-Kernel$ ./build-it.sh --help

Usage: build-it.sh [OPTION]

Here is a list of available options:

-F	| Build Stock Freedom

-L	| Build Less Freedom -75mv

-M	| Build More Freedom -125mv

-A	| Build Aggresive Freedom -175mv

-ALL	| Build all versions

how do I know which kernel version to download? If im not mistaken I downloaded Aggressive but I think that is whats killing my battery. Do I need to download stock or less freedom for better battey support? Or just use Setcpu and lower the voltages by that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] pmacevad:
Try Better Battery Stats from the market. It's a paid app but it does exactly what you are looking for. Hope this helps. :)

Sent from my modded mikG Evo... It's easier this way. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigtoysrock:
Aggresive is undervolted by -175. Less freedom has been undervolted by only -75. So I don't think that will kill your battery by having less voltage. You would more likely be getting boot loops or lockups if the kernel and your phone don't play nice together.
[EVO 4G Android Development] buckhunter:
Check the kernel version in settings. Maybe you flashed stock.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:

I am trying to port the AOSP bluetooth stack into this HTC sense kernel. This would allow things like a PS3 controller or bluetooth mouse and keyboard.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Greatness83:
Thanks for clearing that up. Still getting back in the process and understanding of the whole kernel thing being that I came from and Omnia 2 and haven't had an Android since the Eris first came out and didnt even have it that long. I think it was the rom, still not sure.

When I checked it said Aggressive(universal)
[EVO 4G Android Development] DRatJr:
If we are on synergy RLS1 which one should we use? The universal or synergy nightly one?

Also, what's the difference between, less, more, stock, and aggressive?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Active_Matrix:

[EVO 4G Android Development] DRatJr:
Ok I downloaded Aggressive Universal. That will work with Synergy RLS1 correct?

Also, if I already have the ROM flashed, can I wipe cache and dalvik and flash the kernel after that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] buckhunter:
Dont know alot about Synergy but if the one your on isnt a nightly and has no godmode then yes on universal and yes on wipe cache/dalvik cache then flash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pclev99:
.9 Less should have added that want to go to more or aggressive even but had issues with my phone when I go under volt to much
[EVO 4G Android Development] stkiswr:
I'm surprised. I have used more freedom v.9 for a few days and it has been smooth. Took a suggestion to try interactive x gov and yesterday my battery was really really good w heavy use.

Last night I decided to flash aggressive v.9 and moved my Max to 844 from 768. So far its holding up. My Evo usually doesn't get along w UV but I'm thinking its the havs that gives me problems. I remember froyo and netarchy kernels, I always had to run no havs or my phone acted crazy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Splaktar:
Last night I had another issue with Freedom (stock voltages) 0.9. I woke up in the morning (thankfully not late for work) to find out that my phone was completely powered off (black screen, capacitive buttons off, charging LED, etc) and unresponsive to the power button. I had to battery pull to get it to boot up again. This time it was the same config as above, but with my phone in alarm clock mode (screen on and charging) all night.

Before going to bed, I noticed that it was using onDemand 384/998, so I switched it back to InteractiveX 384/998. I previously had problems running at 128 and 245 for my lower settings. But for whatever reason, setCPU kept reporting that my clock speeds were idling at 245 even when I had it set to 384 as the low. This morning I noticed that the settings in setCPU don't appear to take effect unless you change them. So I moved the slider from 384 and back to it and it appears to have stuck (idling at 384 instead of 245).

I'm still going to stick with this kernel and just blame the first couple issues that I've seen on setCPU and myself not properly configuring the clock speeds (leaving it at 245 over night) and governor.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Alpine-:
Surprised to see so many people mention instability. I wonder if its due to older version of the hardware? I have the most recent hardware revision 004. I'm running Synergy RLS1 and I've had aggressive .8.5 & .9 running and have never had a single reboot or sign of instability.

The only thing I've been able to notice was the BT/audio/voice call type stuff going on. In terms of stability and the undervolting, this kernel has been solid for me. That is also during heavy multitasking with BT, GPS navigation and voice calls all running at the same time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] timreams:
can someone explain the differences between the Freedom Kernels?

Aggressive - Less - More - Stock

And then Nightly vs. Synergy vs. Universal

i have no interest in over/under clocking...i just want better battery life and for my wifi/gps/4G to work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Alpine-:
This has been addressed numerous times if you do a little digging (like the first & second post in the thread).

-F	| Build Stock Freedom

-L	| Build Less Freedom -75mv

-M	| Build More Freedom -125mv

-A	| Build Aggresive Freedom -175mv

Aggressive is the MOST undervolted and thus the MOST battery preserving. I can tell you I run aggressive and notice no slowdown or any sign that my EVO is running "slower." All I notice is better battery life. If for some reason your particular hardware does not take well to that much undervolting, then try "More" freedom or whatever build you need until its 100% stable. As I said, all I can notice running Aggressive is better battery life - its a great kernel and lithid is a diligent dev.
[EVO 4G Android Development] timreams:
hahaha not sure how i missed that 1 post.

so what are the differences between Nightly vs. Synergy vs. Universal

nevermind....i found what i was looking for.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigblueshock:
Speaking of some WEIRD stuff.

When I first flashed .9 over 8.5 things were good. I had SetCPU already set on InteractiveX 245/998. I received a couple minute phone call, hung up, and my phone started MASSIVLY lagging. I didn't understand what was going on, I thought it was Aggressive voltages causing the phone to do this.

I then checked SetCPU, and it was changed to PowerSave 245/245. What the heck... ?

So just to be save, I cleared settings, and reinstalled set CPU. I think from now on I will uninstall set CPU before flashing a new kernel, which would have been a smart thing to do in the first place.

... now I'm sure this is just coincidence because it hasn't happened since.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stkiswr:
Well, aggressive didn't work for me. It actually drained my battery faster for some odd reason. Not a problem as more freedom really runs great and battery life is excellent.

Lithid, I have a question concerning framerate. As I have read it seems to be thru the kernel, when I am on aosp and use the lovely quadrant app haha my frame rate on the rotating planet is around 45+ fps but on gingersense it seems to be significantly lower. I notice no performance decrease but is there a way to adjust it via the kernel to Max out fps similar to aosp? Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] Swede2008:
I had issues with this kernel and setcpu. I switched to no frills cpu control and have had no issues what so ever. I even changed the I/O to noop and it seemed to make my phone more snappy. I also installed v6supercharger with option 2 which further made it snappy. Now I love the speed of my Evo :-) with improved battery drain

[EVO 4G Android Development] beepsilver:
cache, battery & profile

Am I correct in my thinking that before I flash a Freedom kernel (over top of Chopsuey) that I should wipe cache/dalvik cache 2-3 times using amon_ra? (and of course do a nand backup)

Further, upon completion of the install I should 1) update my profile and 2) calibrate my battery to include wiping battery stats?

I've been given some guidance to try a more aggressive undervolting first, check stability and go with less undervolting if necessary (instability detected).

I don't use setcpu or ADB nor do I have any partitions.

Any advice/tips? Is my thought process above accurate?

Thank you.
