All sorted. Happy new year
[HTC Sensation] sjappie:
Yep, worked for me to!
[HTC Sensation] piimp:
Happy new year to u too...but yeah if u change anything on the original file, it saves it as .bak automatically. So i guess its a "back up" in a sense, the phone just won't recognize it. So you could either delete it(if you know what you changed and can change it back whenever) or leave it there and if you need to go back to it just remove the .bak

[HTC Sensation] erraggy:
I am assuming that you used root explorer. I just wanted to clarify that the .bak file will just be the version of that file previous to your last edit/save. Every time you edit the file and save, the .bak file will be overwritten.

[HTC Sensation] erraggy:
Kernels can have any number of features built in as supported, but it needs to be dialed in by a ROM. Not all features work well together. Just my opinion I guess, but that's how I see it.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Your right, just cos its there in the kernel doesn't mean its on. Especially if the Rom has a stop command for that feature!

Some feedback on 2.8b3...

I've always had problems with the zram enabled kernels. They would run really well, but within 24 hours I would always get a zram corruption and lockup, which would require a 3-finger salute.

I've been running b3 now for 2 days with zram enabled (had to manually enable it) with ARHD 3.6.10, and I've had no issues. No lockups, and great performance.
[HTC Sensation] KingDavid63:

at what temperature does the thermal feature kick in? also, does it depend on the cpu or battery temp? my phone tends to turn off when i play plants vs zombies for too long. happens more often while on charger but happened once while not on charger. thanks
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
If your phone turns itself off it's overheating.

Charging battery generates heat so it's logical that when you charge and play plants vs zombies it overheard sooner.

To reduce temps you can try underclocking and undervolting.

So, I'm on HyperSensation CM7.1. Can I use the kernel from this thread without any problems or is it for all the sense roms only?

Thank you in advance.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

I think there is a clue in the title:

[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Zram has to be built into a kernel.

On 6.x.x we only have a basic kernel.

Nothing as advanced as the great Faux can create. :D

I believe we are waiting for the ICS source code to be released, before a proper kernel can be made.

So no Zram for us just yet.

:(
[HTC Sensation] UnixSlayer:
Wow..... that's funny. I see people with Sensations running ARHD 6.0.2, and they ran the commands. They state it's working. How could that be?:confused:

I'm running insertcoin 3.4.5 and have tried to use faux kernel 0.2.7.

However,when using this combo my phone has random freezes,especialy browsing. I end up pulling the battery.

The things i did;whiped cache,dalvik, i ran first time kernel reset, let the phone do it's thing on first boot, booted again.

I also tried 0.2.8, that didn't run smooth at all....

After that i installed version 0.2.6, this works very very well!

So im happy!

Just curious to know why the newer versions don't like my phone? Is it because zram in combination with insertcoin?

Hope to find a awnser here! Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Sometimes it's just a question of finding the right ROM/kernel combination.

[HTC Sensation] noellenchris:
Same here, the new ones cause insertcoin to freeze up on me too. I think they are right, it's just the combo between roms and kernels. But i'm very happy with 2.5r+ haven't tried 2.6, but have tried the later versions. Either way thanks again.

[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Really sorry but since search is off I can't search this thread :(

Are those or the ones posted in OP (CPU Frequency Voltage Table Example) the default voltages on 0.2.8 kernel?
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
no, the stock voltage is a bit higher than what's been posted. it was only an example.
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
Thank you Faux!

So I guess the default table is this:

I was at 864mhz/-75mV on latest ARHD 3.6.13, until I decided to raise clock to 1.02ghz and had a couple of reboots during high cpu usage.

Probably the -75mV undervolt was way too low for 1ghz, when I upvolted to -50mV I got no issues.

Anyway I just wanna double-check my default voltages are the same with your kernel stock ones so I could correctly undervolt :)
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
I have been experiencing a couple of reboots lately, at first I thought it was the uc/uv combination but I just got one with 1.18GHz/-25mV. It seemed to be a "hot" reboot since the screen went right to the white bootscreen and both system tuner and on settings menu gave me an uptime of 35 hours!

(the only way to understand that I had a reboot was missing recent apps when I long-pressed home button and a widget missing from widgetlockscreen -it ends up missing every time after a random reboot)

It happened around the same time Juicedefender was about to enable flight mode for it's night schedule so I thought that JD had something to do with it. Unfortunately I couldn't find the last_kmsg.

I then tried to disable JD and the moment I enabled it back I got another reboot, this time screen blacked out before booting. I was able to pull the last_kmsg this time.

http://db.tt/v2V0jaCA

Please bare in mind that yesterday I spent around 6 hours of testing A LOT of apps (~200), also uninstalling most of them, stressing the CPU a lot, so I'm beginning to think that either JD, or another app is causing this.

Any ideas what could be the problem? My config is in my sig :)

Thanks in advance :)

You have a memory leak...

[159331.563659] mpdecision: page allocation failure. order:4, mode:0x44d0

Thanks for the swift response! Any way to troubleshoot what's causing this?

Could reflashing rom or wiping cache/fix permissions help?

Edit: coincidentally (or not), these issues started around the same time I started using system tuner... uninstalled, back to FauxClock and monitoring. If reboots still happen I'm down to reflashing the rom.

This may have been answered before, but;

On ARHD4, there was a bug that caused the phone to freeze when you had the camera-app open and the screen-timeout locked the screen.

Has this been fixed?

This has not been fixed. So close camera before screen off. I will look at it for the next version.
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
You could also use an app called appautosettings which lets you (among other things) select to have screen timeout disabled for any app you want!

Keepscreen does the same thing and possibly is a lot lighter as an app, although keepscreen disabled my autobrightness and only gave an option to set brightness at maximum or minimum :/

BTW, after I got rid of system tuner, no more restarts or reboots even when running @864mhz with -75mV. Fingers crossed!

[HTC Sensation] TiZiO.Cover:
Works like a charm.

Gesendet von meinem HTC Sensation Z710e mit Tapatalk
[HTC Sensation] akpe:
I found this while searching :)

9) Intellidemand:

Intellidemand aka Intelligent Ondemand from Faux is yet another governor that's based on ondemand. Unlike what some users believe, this governor is not the replacement for OC Daemon (Having different governors for sleep and awake).

The original intellidemand behaves differently according to GPU usage. When GPU is really busy (gaming, maps, benchmarking, etc) intellidemand behaves like ondemand. When GPU is 'idling' (or moderately busy), intellidemand limits max frequency to a step depending on frequencies available in your device/kernel for saving battery. This is called browsing mode. We can see some 'traces' of interactive governor here. Frequency scale-up decision is made based on idling time of CPU. Lower idling time (<20%) causes CPU to scale-up from current frequency. Frequency scale-down happens at steps=5% of max frequency. (This parameter is tunable only in conservative, among the popular governors)

To sum up, this is an intelligent ondemand that enters browsing mode to limit max frequency when GPU is idling, and (exits browsing mode) behaves like ondemand when GPU is busy; to deliver performance for gaming and such. Intellidemand does not jump to highest frequency when screen is off.

Source.
[HTC Sensation] baste07:
so in short it's better the ondemand right?

Bricked is slower on benchmarks, Faux has the camera power off bug. Seems my totally stock ROM agreed with bricked's kernel better(faux's would randomly reboot), but Now that I switched to Unknown_Oreo. both kernels are solid. I just gotta figure out what bug, bugs me less. Nothing against your work faux, it is great, and I'm glad you have a sensation!

Yes it is worth mentioning, because it is a bug. It exists solely on this kernel. If it were stated on the first post there would be a lot less confusion.

There will always be people who don't bother searching for an answer past the first or last page.
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
It's only 494 pages :P

Anyways, the "bug" is due to the fact that the HTC camera has it's own power management. Since HTC didn't release the camera driver sources it can't be fixed. Hope that clears it up.
[HTC Sensation] TwelveSided:
What's your point? I knew that already. I was just stating that this bug only exists for Faux's kernel.

If you didn't install any new apps or updates you might be suffering from a bad flash. So try reflashing (don't forget to wipe the caches!).
