Is 1.73 GHz too much for the processor ? I mean cause this processor is design for 1,2 ghz to1,5 over that frequency is that to much and can harm the processor or the device or decrease life of the chip cause over voltage? Now I'm using faux123 002 version (and ARHD 6.5.4 XE) and the clock is set to 1.73 GHz. I just want to know if this will decrease the life of the phone ? Snapdragon S3 family ARMv7 instructions is for 1.2-1.5 GHz Dual-core Scorpion . And why in CPUStats shows CPU(Governor) maximum 1728(1512) MHz current frequency cant go over 1512 so why there is 1728 ? Tnx in advance
[HTC Sensation] dzhoshkun:
The clock is set to 1.73GHz on both CPU or just one?
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Is it only on the beta it overheats?

doesn't the ultimate version have a very high gpu rate?

with 003beta 2 i got 3700 in quadrant .... but with 003beta 3 its lagy and i had 2 random reboot ... i will go back to 003b2

you might have a point actually mate. i'll test one of the release ones...

can you supply a /proc/last_kmsg

will help determine the cause of the reboot..
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
They don't get the purpose of open betas at all. They load it, hit the "like" or "unlike" button without explanation and move on to whatever they read about last.

[HTC Sensation] MuertoKo:
It's been a few hours since I flashed 003b3 and for now no lag, no problems, everything running smooth and after like 6 - 7 hours of use still 70% of battery left so... Good job faux :)

Btw I checked the temperature thing, and as you said when it over-heats (75) while playing it goes back to 60 at a little CPU cost (no notice that while playing so... perfect) I didn't know it could be checked with USB debbuging and adb, thanks for the tip ;)

Keep this great job! (And btw, isn't GPU OC causing more heat and more battery loss? should we activate the "advanced" option of full GPU rendering on the phone?)
[HTC Sensation] dwsmith:
Fuax clock keeps unexpectedly stopping so I had to remove it. Is there away to fix this issue?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Faux clock seems generally unstable, I'd use something else like system tuner

my sensation xe and the rom coredroid v5 ...
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Phone feels warmer in my hand under use with 003b3.

I logged CPU temps for 5 minutes of browsing but temps never exceeded 50°C, so not really a problem I guess.

Still running fast and smooth. I don't think battery is as good as 002r or 003b1, but it's too early to be sure.

(running kernel at default 194-1512, ondemand, no UV, no profiles, no external interference at all – as our fearless leader intended)

ZRAM does take an extra bite out of battery. I am trying different things to minimize the effect. I am looking at various things... another beta maybe out soon...(No ETA)

Love the new EULA!!

Once you gonna bring out beta4 I think I am gonna give it a try too this time.

Finally got my phone as I want it so now I am ready to get a good nandroid backup and test stuff :P

[HTC Sensation] Evil-Dragon:
I seem to be having sporadic issues with ZRAM on ARHD 6.5.5 xe with 003b3. Apps have a chance of stopping working after a while, eg Tapatalk kept breaking and not loading and issues with FC's on random apps on the phone, sometimes system apps or even live wallpapers. Only thing that has changed is flashing the kernel. Could this be the belated zram issues from GB coming back or perhaps the Google compression you say that zram is using?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Last_kmsg might help, not sure but if its zram corruption should show in there I think...
[HTC Sensation] Evil-Dragon:
I'll try and get a last_kmsg next time it happens.

I am using beta3 with undervolted by -75. My phone is running smooth, no reboots at all. Battery life looks questionable though not sure. I am on ARHD 6.5.5.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Zram will use a little more battery. I'll gonna do a test overnight on fresh battery see what drain is like 8 hours of no activitity.
[HTC Sensation] ImHuge07:
Love the kernel so far!

Only problem I'm having is with faux clock. It keeps crashing on me. Using version .9. Is that the newest version?
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
LOL, forget fauxclock for now.. that sucker hasn't been updated for a while. Use SystemTuner or SetCPU or other cpu tweak apps for now.
[HTC Sensation] Astug:
Loving the kernel, performance/battery life is excellent! Question tho, I use SetCPU to increase the frequency to 1728MHz. Besides the obvious decrease in battery life, the app doesn't screw anything up or interferes with your kernel settings and so on, correct? Just want to make sure.

Thank you!

test with ARHD 6.5.4 xe

i test normal use ;) Governour: ondemand no changes @ voltages

first experience Lower CPU Temps with the new beta kernel @ 1.72 GHZ

Play Angry birds 30minutes and the temp dont go over 60c (my problem in older kernels)

with Governour Performance @1.72GHZ

the Temp looks stable too... no performance crashes like older versions

i get with you kernel so high sd card write: 21.5MB/s ;)

i test the kernel over this day ;)

can anyone give me a good stresstest for the phone?

When the phone is sleeping the battery life looks very good. I had 38% battery at 12:50 and after 9 hours at 9:50 I had 35% battery with phone sleeping. This means only 3% battery drain after 9 hours. When I started using the phone with in five minutes 2% battery was lost. The phone uses less battery when sleeping but highly drains when using the phone. I will check with beta 4 and report back. from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using Tapatalk 2 Beta-4

What you said can be normal, what were you doing with the five mins you were using it
[HTC Sensation] sazrikudo:
Hi faux

When i used your kernels from kernel offi 1, 2 and 3b4 i had problem with playing game. When i played modern combat 3 my phone become slow and lagy, i cant enjoy playing the game. But when i change kernel to another kernel in xda dev sensation my probelm has fixed. So faux can you fix 3d and 2d performance. I hope you hear this and the next release you can fix this :)

Thanks before

Ps : im sorry my english isnt good
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Hi which ROM are you using?
[HTC Sensation] sazrikudo:
I use ARHD 6.5.5

I change kernel to SFM and my problem has solved.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
No offense intended but – running benchmarks with kernel set to max frequency, with governor set to performance (keeps max frequency) should tell you nothing except max frequency.

All kernels at the same frequency should test the same, right?

What we're supposed to be testing is how kernel controls CPU speed and power consumption. I only run benches when I feel something is wrong. For the most part I track power consumption, stability and speed under operating conditions.

It takes a while, and isn't always conclusive, but it tells me what I need to know about kernel's operation and suitability.

(003b4, so far so good)

P.
[HTC Sensation] Evil-Dragon:
Newest beta 003b4 seems to be running nicely. 38-60ma on average when sleeping.

No issues yet.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
[003b4]

Running much cooler than b3, so far battery usage is extremely low, idle and in use. No loss of performance (at least not yet).

4 hrs after full charge and wiping battery stats, I'm at 91% with moderate usage.

P.
[HTC Sensation] framir:
Last beta is very amazing! I've hight performance battery!

I don't try game, but ever works very well!

Thanks! :-)
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
You undervolting, what governor you using, just default?
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Since this is beta, I'm testing kernel as it came. All defaults, no changes. Standard voltages, default clocks (1.512), on-demand governor, no profiles, no scripts for GPU.

P.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Whats default governor? Im not sure if set CPU changed it, its ondemand at the moment..
[HTC Sensation] Astug:
ondemand is default

[Arhd 6.5.2 xe] [003b4]

Hey some feedback. I have kept my setup the same for a while now on the beta kernels. The battery life on 003 b4 seems to be excellent. I am at 8hr 30min and my battery is at 73% first cycle with moderate use ( web, email, music via Bluetooth, two quick calls, everything autosyncing and a dozen or so texts ). This is better than the kernels prior to this on the same setup by about 20 to 25%. I am running it at 1.18ghz Ondemand with no visible impact on performance. As a daily driver I am going to stick with this kernel as a reference for all future releases. Great work and thanks. K.
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
I concur. Running at 1.512 and still getting the best battery, coolest operation I've ever seen. Even though there's no compcache Sense doesn't seem to have to reload (which happened with b2).

I wish I had some specific issues for developer, but so far this is great!! Stable too, everything seems to work.

[Arhd 6.5.4.xe] [003b4]

Ok my report on beta 4 so far. Really nice and smooth, no heat issues or lags that I've seen. Moderate usage in 8 hours lost 15% of battery which is fantastic! Using ondemand govonor, clocked at 1.51ghz no UV.

Thanks faux, happy with this as daily driver! Nice work ;)

Thanks buddy. Beta 4 is running great here, best batt life i've ever achieved with any of your releases. Will be flashing Beta5 and will give you feedback tomorrow.

Thanks for your hard work

EDIT: nicely done in the gradual dim :D i like it

Do I have to activate the gradual dimming thing or what exactly should this do and when :D

Edit: now I got it ;) but dimming only works for switching the display on, but not for off!

Can't tell for battery drainage yet as I just flashed.

Will do that later today.

[HTC Sensation] stuart0001:
Faux, what would you recommend the best way of increasing screen off max freq? System tuner pro?

I think I'm right in saying that you've set it to 584 but I need a bit more for my podcast player to prevent stuttering when playing at high speed. ( beyondpod & presto)

Ideally I'd like to be able to only only increase when that's running. Not sure if that's possible.

I'm going to lower the clocks and see if I notice any performance loss. If I can keep everything smooth and seamless with extra battery performance, that would be like heaven.

[HTC Sensation] GuyAdams:
As its a beta I wanted to leave some feedback;

This is the first time I've used a faux kernel, installed 003b5 this morning first thing and so far been very happy.

Performance is excellent, I've not experienced any heat issues or problems with any of the apps I use on a regular basis.

So far I've achieved 12 hours on 40% charge which is good for me. I'm a heavy users with two exchange accounts, two imap accounts, Twitter, Facebook, Kik, Tapatalk, Weather etc. Also today used my camera a lot today as I've been out rock climbing. Tomorrow at work will be the real test but so far so good.

Ill report any issues if or when I find them.

Thanks for your hard work.

New to the sensation but I am really loving the latest beta got as low as 24ma in sleep, slowly getting close to what I was used to with tatung kernel on the HD2 (2-5ma) but obviously greatly improved performance :-)

Using virtuos inquisition btw, the 24ma was with WiFi off in screen off just 3g, otherwise with WiFi it about 45.

Thanks for a great kernel and all the updates.
[HTC Sensation] orangestrawberry:
Sure, it might just be nothing. Will charge again tonight and see tomorrow but I have tried earlier builds too and this is worse on battery. Probably just nothing as I usually don't have any issues with fauxs kernels which are awesome.

Just realised beta 5 is out. Will jump to that. How can one keep up with faux!

so far in insertcoint smooth, fluid and FAST. Using undervolt -50mV and undercloc 1.24 Ghz. Awesome kernel. I love yoouuu man

Ps: Im sorry my english isnt good
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
You've probably run the benchmark too many times. With performance and max clock the CPU will heat up very fast. My built-in kernel thermal throttling was activated and lowered your clock speed to 810MHz to cool off your phone.

This is where in kernel thermal protection is far superior than user space thermald. During high load the kernel thermal management will still be responsive where the normal thermald will have to fight with all the user space applications to get CPU time to do its own thermal management. Think of windows pc when too many apps are running and the whole system slows down to a crawl and nothing is responsive, would you trust a laggy app to do your thermal management with all the delays. How good of a job will it do? The built-in thermal management will still function because it's part of the kernel and integrated not have to compete with user space apps for CPU time.
[HTC Sensation] BurnRubber90:
Sorry if this has been answered before.. but.. was the lag related to insert coin ROM fixed?

Thanks for the explanation ! I run a lot of benchmarks yesterday to empty my battery and the results weren't those expected regarding CPU speed.
