Better battery situation on radio 10.14 drains Stoll higher than beta 2 and not as consistent.

Has anyone git a flashable kernel file for beta 2? I want to go back to show u what I mean..
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
well my battery results wernt great at -50mV so i stuck with -25mV
[HTC Sensation] Sibbi:
My phone just crashed... Screen won´t turn on anymore.

How exactly can i pull the last_ksmg? Would it still be there, if I do an adb-reboot right now?

Edit: Ok, figured it out.

battery called for shutdown, not sure why but i think it was controlled. i need kohr-ah or faux to check it
[HTC Sensation] silverdart:

I agree! Moving on to 0.2.5b6
[HTC Sensation] Sibbi:
Everytime I see charts like this, I realise what a heavy user I am :D

If you hardly use your phone, it should be no surprise, that it lasts for so long.
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
I see same as you but I don't see why the battery told it to shut down. It looks like typing typing then bam. Battery said I am done.

^ looks like you had some issues mounting the file systems due to errors (/cache /data/ and /system) but eventually they mounted. Also are you running 020? because the last_kmsg said you were running 020.

Your log showed a combination of File System errors on all 3 major partitions, then at the end, the battery issued a shutdown... Please update to 024r or latest beta.
[HTC Sensation] silverdart:
Exactly!

If you are a super heavy user you better be near a plug. Taming a dual processor, high quality screen phone to last for days with heavy use would be a great feat. I'm only looking for average use to last through the work day without putting it on a charger. If I want to watch movies, listen to music videos, or music in general... I use a plug. At least I know that if I'm stranded or some other emergency my phone will last a little while with hope of rescue.

random reboot
[HTC Sensation] Sensei3stacks:
Why my RAM is soo low how can I fix it
[HTC Sensation] jerrylzy:
Have you flashed themes?This may be caused by your themes whose apks are heavily compressed so you only get few free RAM
[HTC Sensation] Sensei3stacks:
It was like that even after a full wipe
[HTC Sensation] piimp:
I think its cuz zram is enabled?

Sent by my feau gee
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
You have plenty of RAM don't worry about it:

768MB physical total - GPU Carveout (128MB) = 640 MB

640 MB - Android Shared Memory - Linux Private Memory - Linux Kernel itself ~ 561 MB

561 MB + 100 MB ZRAM (2:1 compression ratio) ~ 661 MB (you won't see this. ZRAM space is NOT added to displayed total RAM).

So as you can see, you have PLENTY of RAM.
[HTC Sensation] Gillion:
This is not a problem. Do not worry about it. It wont affect the performance of your phone.

CM 7.1.0 Alpha 10 + XDA
[HTC Sensation] Sensei3stacks:
Thanks piimp and faux that was it
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
thats normal, better to have RAM used by the system then setting there unused. mine is the same, its fine :)
[HTC Sensation] Sibbi:
That is really strange, as I just installed your latest beta (0.25 b6) this morning?! (Acually i never even had version 2.0 on my phone)

Should I just reinstall the kernel or is there something else, that has to be done?
[HTC Sensation] Sibbi:
Here's a screenshot.
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
Yeah... that means your log is old. I guess you will have to wait for the next crash / reboot to generate a new /proc/last_kmsg

/proc/last_kmsg is ONLY generated when you random reboot / crash and you DIDN'T pull battery (it stays in RAM, so pulling battery will wipe it out!)
[HTC Sensation] Sibbi:
Hm, ok. I pulled the last_kmsg after the phone crashed but before I rebooted using adb.

Next time, do I have to pull the file after the reboot?
[HTC Sensation] GideonX:
I don't get people's infatuation with how much ram they have free. If it's free, your system isn't using it. If you have less, it means it's being used. What's the point of having ram if all you want to do is horde it and keep it free? Use it man, that's what it's there for!
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
Yeah, pull the log after reboot :D
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
thx faux, testing now. anything specific that needs testing / checking?
[HTC Sensation] remus82:
Just flashed beta 7. Felt that booting time has shortened. Or am I too sensitive?

the new b 025 b7 can i flash it with coredroid rom 2.6 ....

and if yes could you please post the 1.5Gh
[HTC Sensation] quahog_convo:
I guess you're lucky. The stock 3.5 cam isn't working for me :\

but I'll retest with b7 shortly.
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
check out the new dynamic LED button lights :D When it's really bright , the LED button light will turn off, in dark environment, it will adjust automatically according to light level. Kinda cool :D

It should work with ALL ROMs. The 1.73 kernel should boot with all phones. Just turn it down using SystemTurner to a clock level of your choice (in your case, turn it down to 1.5)
[HTC Sensation] remus82:
I meant subsequent reboots. The first one was very long as usual. Had to build up the dalviks.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
that is kinda cool, works fine and seems to react quite fast. nice :)
[HTC Sensation] quahog_convo:
And it works! YAY! :D
[HTC Sensation] elvislam:
flashed faux kernel beta 7, max is always automatically set to 1.18 instead of 1.73 with this version.... it's quite likely to be a kernel problem...

edit: a workaround is to use daemon with 2 profiles, not bypass..
[HTC Sensation] Kohr-Ah:
Or try system tuner instead of daemon clock. Profile on there keeps my settings for me as bypass

Random reboots

I've had random reboots since beta 2... How do I pull last_kmsg? Thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
Use file explorer of your choice:

Astro, ES Explorer, Root etc

and just copy the file from /proc/last_kmsg to your sdcard and post the file to

pastebin.com :D

battery jumps

Faux, I'm sure you've seen the battery_fix.zip that has been floating around. I'm just wondering if it's necessary to flash every time I flash a new kernel? Or if you feel it even helps. I had a random reboot with beta 6 and then my battery went from about half to 8%. Hope beta 7 will resolve this.
[HTC Sensation] orangestrawberry:
Please check my post on pg 3212 of arhd for what is working for me
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
The battery fix won't work for us since it consists of files specifically for the Atrix.

Battery jumping is due to buggy HTC battery drivers. If those could be fixed...

b6 running smooth on my Sensation. Seems to be using less battery but I could be wrong considering the 24 hours it could settle.

Also, phones feels cooler.
[HTC Sensation] orangestrawberry:
Faux. Fastboot appears to be the problem for battery drain. Disabling it fixes the issue. Can you see why?
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
hm.. interesting tip... let me see
[HTC Sensation] orangestrawberry:
Check my post on 3212 of arhd. Its working. It's as if the memory not clearing after a restart with app like 4ext is causing the incorrect reading. Disable fastboot and its like removing and reinserting battery each time which restores our big battery drains

Just a theory tho. But it does seem to be the culprit!
[HTC Sensation] orangestrawberry:
Btw on arhd 4.1.7. 0.2.5.b7. Everything working smooth.
[HTC Sensation] d3vilskid:
Mybad I thought I added the Rom name and kernel. It's rcmix v9 sense 3.5 with 25b6
[HTC Sensation] maschenazi:
I have fastboot disabled, it has always been, but still have big battery jumps after reboot. I am on ARHD 3.6.7 with the default faux kernel.

What I noticed, is that if you reboot again with the charger plugged in, the battery reading jumps back to normal.
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
Well, you still need to track down the app that's constantly running / exiting... Not much I can do on this end...
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

[4.1.7., 0.2.5.b7]

Sorry if this bursts any bubbles,but one of the first things I do on a new ROM ,is disable fastboot.

Still get battery jumps.

:(
[HTC Sensation] maschenazi:
Same here. Please see my edited post above. I hope that helps.

Also, Faux, what is your fix for battery driver actually changes ?
[HTC Sensation] d3vilskid:
Thanks will do, keeping an eye out for now. I might just reflash Rom :D
[HTC Sensation] orangestrawberry:
Annoying isn't it that we all get different results.

Did you flash Rom.

Disable fastboot.

Full charge whilst phone off.

Then wipe battery stats in recovery only?

Then keep fastboot off

from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
The fix was just a very minor coding derp from HTC.

I will look into the battery driver some more.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

I've said this many times that not all phones are created equal.

As you say,

flash ROM and disable fastboot straight away,along with various other things.

Then ,I install mods etc.

Then ,get on with using the phone.

:)
[HTC Sensation] orangestrawberry:
Yeah, I love this phone. So much better with faux kernels than when I first bought it.
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
:D I added the web browser detection code it is original coding. You need to learn how to read code :cool:
[HTC Sensation] Evil-Dragon:
Can't see the problem. Credits are intact to the original coders and code is under GPL. Faux did the work of finding it, testing and integration into the kernel. Being he is the first to add it to a HTC kernel I think he deserves some recognition.
[HTC Sensation] loliman:
Using 2.5 beta7 everything is working fine till now. btw, any chance of getting something like this at any time? :)
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
I answered this exact question in my CM7 thread :D See below:

That's pretty cool, except it will drain battery life like mad. The only way for it to work is to leave the capacitance detection circuit running while screen is off. The kernel has to also have a working thread running in the background the entire time to poll the changes in the capacitance buttons at a regular interval.

This is actually pretty easy to hack, but the cost of leaving a thread running all the time and leaving the capacitance circuit active all the time may not be worth it....

Just my 2 cents....
[HTC Sensation] Gillion:
This is why you must never again slack up on your documentation and updating procedures. Stay in the right, stay in the light, it will keep your ass warm.
[HTC Sensation] Ace42:
Faux, I can't get the lights to be dynamic on arhd 4.1.7, I tried with auto and manual brightness.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
also for anyone who keeps the phone in their pocket its gonne keep unlocking on u!
[HTC Sensation] Gillion:
I had a problem like that... dust covered my light sensor.

Take the cover off and clean the dust away from the speaker and light sensors.

See if that works.

Another way to test light sensor is to use the gps status tool (you can get it on the market) it will show you the lumens (lux) reading of your sensor... and you can watch both the LED and the sensor reading.
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
Nod :cool: My changes are completely documented patch by patch so you can see EXACTLY what I've done :D

Try this, get a flashlight and shine on the light sensor (top left corner clear dot) or go outside with if you have sun shine outside and you should see the button LED get turned off, then go to a completely dark room and you should see LED light button again... It may not be very noticeable but it does update :D If you want to read the dmesg logs, I have added debugging message specifically for it to see the voltage change depending on lighting conditions.

Browser 1ghz code

I've might missed it when I searched, but whats the advantage of giving the cpu max 1ghz when browsing? Except the obvious battery saving.

Is there anyway to disable this, I like my browsing to go as fast as it can at 1.5ghz :D
[HTC Sensation] Gillion:
Then change the governor to ondemand.
[HTC Sensation] broncogr:
Thread cleaned....
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
Just so it does not run @ full speed while web browsing. I will be adding user controls via sys_fs interface later on (maybe version 026). You can also switch the governor to ondemand, then it will behave exactly the same as before without any restrictions.
[HTC Sensation] elmalote:
Thanks for clearing that up guys, appreciated :)

What about things like dynamic LED and so on, will they still work on ondemand?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Yep, governor just dictates CPU behaviour, won't affect things like light control :)

Great thanks :)

No bootloops for me.Did you have a previous version of this kernel running?
[HTC Sensation] J.Swalen:
Using ARHD 3.03 with Faux123 0.0.9 1,5MHz(on top of Mike1986's 0.0.6) and Mike1986's dual_core script V5. Also using SetCPU to control Kernel. using various profiles. Checked Kernel Speed with CPU stats and it seems to work very well. Do get "SetCPU has been granted root access" all the time. Seems like SetCPU does actually overrides the standard settings.

By the way, Faux123 thanks for this Kernel and for fixing the USB issue. You saved my day!:D
[HTC Sensation] ttav:
I flashed a new update for Leedroid rom. V2.4.0.rebooted Wiped cache and dalvik then flashed 006....rebooted wiped cache and dalvik flashed 009....no bootloops.Either i`m lucky or the method worked...no idea:)
[HTC Sensation] ttav:
Have you any profiles enabled?I had the same problem a few days ago with some profiles enabled but unticking the enabled box cured the problem.
[HTC Sensation] rawrfische:
Overall performance is definitely improved with Faux's kernels, but I've noticed this too. If you run a bench and constantly cat the max_freq of cpu0 and cpu1, the max_freq will sometimes drop to 1188.

Wonder what could be causing this? This is with the 1.56 Mhz 0.0.9 ondemand kernel.
[HTC Sensation] plun:
Nope.... wiped dalvik-cache and installed this kernel > bootloop.

Confusing readings about installing ver 0.0.6 first ????

Unity V9 works great and gives high rankings with Quadrant so this is maybe not a problem....;)
[HTC Sensation] HannoSLM:
i have very good results with 09 ondemand 1.5 ghz ... rom feels smoother, especially the scrolling in the app drawer. Browser is much better than with stock kernel. UI is slightly faster (no occasional loss of fps).

compliments for your work faux

thank you
[HTC Sensation] ttav:
Look in Mike`s Android Revolution thread...custom kernels...flash 006 then flash faux`s 009 from his site.

Edit: according to some posters flash 006 then 009 without rebooting.I didn`t but best follow what seems to work:)
[HTC Sensation] plun:
Gives still a bootloop..... :p strange kernel if it needs a pre-kernel:rolleyes:

Well back to Unity V9.....
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
?!?!? Unity is doing the same thing. They are also packing RAMDISK + Libs? So what's the complaint here?
[HTC Sensation] plun:
I have no idea.... 0.0.9 just bootloops for me. (LeeDroid ver 2.4)

Confusing readings in threads that ver 0.0.6 is needed ???

If a ramdisk is needed so include it in this the kernel.. IMHO !
[HTC Sensation] ttav:
It`s not a strange kernel...needs a fix to work with 2.3.4.Mike from Android Revolution found a fix that makes this kernel work with any 2.3.4 rom (kudos).

I have no idea why it doesn`t work for you but it works for me and many others.
[HTC Sensation] ttav:
It is very simple....flash 006 from mike`s site.....don`t reboot....flash 009 from faux`s site reboot.You are on the same rom as me....it works 100% for me after multiple reflashing.

Why should I flash something from Mikes rom running Faux's kernel.... ???

There are also 2 choices in Mikes thread.

[HTC Sensation] tibere86:
Many thanks faux123. Kernel 0.0.9 is running smooth as butter for me. Will see how battery life is.

Are there any built in sleep or screen-off profiles in the ondemand 1.56ghz version?
[HTC Sensation] ttav:
For the simple reason that faux`s kernels need this fix to work with 2.3.4.

If you had done some research before deciding to flash the kernel it would all be evident.
[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
Yes exactly thanks ttav. If you knew anything you would no unity done the exact same thing to make it work with their ROM, faux can't do it became each ROM needs to include an aspect which may differ ROM to rom.
