Strange u must be right about control from elsewhere. I'm not keen on having both cores active all the time. Faux when u awaken can u help? Is thus due to the sense 3.5 hack?
[HTC Sensation] jjrumph:
Does faux's thermal patch stay active when you flash a different faux kernel or is it necessary to flash each time you flash a different Faux123 kernel?
[HTC Sensation] silverdart:
PROBLEM!

faux123 - Develops kernals for 2.3.4 Sense 3.0 but can be used with a hack (or when optimized by mike1986) to work on 2.3.5 Sense 3.5

mike1986 - Develops a ROM for 2.3.4 Sense 3.0 and a ROM for 2.3.5 Sense 3.5 and only uses faux123 kernals.

My wish is that faux123 would develop separate kernals, 1 for 2.3.4 Sense 3.0 and 1 for 2.3.5 Sense 3.5.

At the present moment each ROM which has nothing to do with the other ROM is being subject to opinion that should not be tallied. Ex... if a build doesn't work on 2.3.4 Sense 3.0 what does that have to do with 2.3.5 Sense 3.5. However weather a build makes it is due to a conglomerate of opinions over various ROMS. 3.5 hack with build 4 works and works good on 2.3.5 Sense 3.5 (as I have proven) But opinions from 2.3.4 Sense 3.0 users could stop it from becoming a reality.

Just my opinion so please no one get offended! If you do I apologize!

*** It would be nice if 3.5 hacK & build 4 could be incorporated and become the first faux123 2.3.5 Sense 3.5 kernal ***.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
No that is a good point I think we are giving faux feedback based on different Android versions so just confusing the matter, your right we could do with different threads for 3.0 and 3.5 kernels...
[HTC Sensation] silverdart:
For thought!

Neither am I, But as you can see my stats are still outstanding with both cores blazing.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
That's gonna affect battery and temperature though
[HTC Sensation] silverdart:
???????????

That's a interesting statement. You haven't switched over yet correct? I gave you all my apps that I use to monitor my phone. Download and tell me if your stats are better than mine.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Just got home from work and flashed now. Without the 3.5 hack doesn't work. With seems ok, battery usage is a lotore and runs warmer

---------- Post added at 06:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:26 PM ----------

yeah rom is responding fine but now both cores are forced on, and i cant get cpu1 off again, same as u.

MY battery drain is quite bad now, around 400-500ma, going back to beta 2 for now
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
[2.2 beta 4][ARHD 4.1.3]

Reflashed beta 4 after doing Faux's 2.3.5 hack.

This time it went smoothly.

Running for a couple hours now, phone is behaving itself. A couple of tests shows it is running quite fast. Feels good too.

I did check and no, my second core is not always on.

P.
[HTC Sensation] silverdart:
TIME!

It always does that, around 400-500ma, you have to give it time to settle in. I know you've heard it many times but believe me it's true.

---------- Post added at 02:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:15 PM ----------

For a further explanation you are wiping system and delvic cache and battery stats (or you should be) so your system needs time to readjust. Not only that you are implementing Zram and Zcache (operating together) which are foreign to your phone and each other. Now, even when I reboot my mA's are as I posted. So don't ever flash a ROM and post immediate results because they will be inaccurate and detrimental to our purpose of accurate results to report to faux123. Give your system time and then report results. Have I steered you wrong yet? As for both processors being enabled let faux123 handle that. I again challenge you to match my stats since you have gone back to what you think is better (ASYNC) CPU's. You will probably be disappointed.

---------- Post added at 03:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 PM ----------

Please be more descriptive on how you determined your second core is not always on.

Running 4.1.3 arhd with faux beta 4 and 3.5 hack. When looking in CPU, online it shows 0-1. I know if its 1, it's always on correct? Does 0-1 mean its ondemand when needed ? Thx

Edit: read wrong one, cpu1 is 1.

[HTC Sensation] Astug:
I'm using the FauxClock app by Romanbb to control the CPU clock speeds. I underclock to 1.18 and screen off is set to 192-384. What is the ideal number for GPU IO Fraction to be on with these clock speeds? Also, there's no harm in enabling "Set on boot", right? Because it only remembers the clocks for screen off, max clock always jumps back to 1.56 after a reboot but I'm guessing that's because it's hardcoded in to the kernel?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] jjrumph:
Can someone verify what faux beta 4 says for kernel in about phone. Mine says faux 0.2.2+ Paul@Ubuntu #5

I'm assuming that is the build 4.thx

[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
Oops, I was wrong: I went to terminal cat sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

The first time I did it, I thought I saw 0, but I must have been wrong.

It is now set to 1, so both cores are on full time.

I'm leaving it alone for now, because phone is running great, and I won't know about battery for days.

Sorry for the error before, I don't know what I saw.

[2.2 beta 4][ARHD 4.1.3]

Further to my testing, i've flashed the hacked libraries from before and now build 4 kernel is working without freezing. I thought Mike had included the hacked libraries already in ARHD 4.1.3 however it seems something was/is missing from his ROM to make build 4 work properly. I'll keep you posted.
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
The I/O fraction for underclocking should be around 40~50 :D I am glad you are joining my underclocking club :D

I am trying to find the lowest optimal speed with my kernel where I get good performance + great battery life :D
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Faux! Your back! See my discussion with silver earlier, what are your thoughts about 3.5 hack and cpu1 always on?

If u want I can give u mikes init.post_boot.sh?
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
I don't have CPU1 on all the time? Not sure why you guys are experiencing these issues. HTC put in two horrible user space daemons, both cause more harm than good. mpdecision and thermald

I suggest disable both!

su
stop mpdecision
stop thermald
[HTC Sensation] orymd:
hi faux! is it possible to have a sense 3.5 hack without modify any system apk? only system libs... ?
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
well

ive gone back to beta 1 cause flashlight isnt working for any battery % under 30% on beta 2

so ive gone back.

can anyone else confirm this ?

thanks
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
Ok will give that a go, I already have mpdecision disabled. How can u tell for sure that cpu1 is enabled always, it is in the CPU folder, if the online script is 1 then its always active? It won't save changes to that either :(

Edit:

do i just bung that all into the init.post_boot.sh script? i dont get what the su is for?

su

stop mpdecision

stop thermald
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
The change for flash has not changed since build 1, all subsequent builds have the same change! :confused:
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
The camera.apk needed to be modified as well.
[HTC Sensation] orymd:
ok but i want the original sensation camera app, not the amaze one... only this...
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
No I think he means the default camera apk needs altering to work with beta 4 as the camera driver is part of the kernel
[HTC Sensation] orymd:
ok, different question... i want to use the beta 4 on arhd 4.1.3 (using sense 3.5 hack) but i don't want the amaze camera app... ok? :D
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
you'll be fine, flash the 3.5 hack, then the kernel, (clearning caches at whatnot) those 2 things wont change the camera, just the drivers that feed into the kernel. u wont get the amaze camera unless u actually flasht he amazecamera mod apk..

also id be interested to hear about battery drain on beta 4 if u have a widget to monitor..
[HTC Sensation] loliman:
Noticed that too... Perhaps it is because of amaze cam?
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
not sure

I'm on 3.6.2 ARHD ROM
[HTC Sensation] orymd:
but your sense 3.5 hack has the init post boot file... i have deleted it in order to preserve mike's tweaks...

---------- Post added at 11:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 PM ----------

i can confirm... after flash sense 3.5 hack and 0.2.2-4 kernel the cpu1 is always online ... :/

---------- Post added at 11:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 PM ----------

my phone is flying... is it normal? :D
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
yeah i cant figure out whats forcing CPU1 online, must be something outside of the boot script...

i guess its flying cos of having 2 cores online all the time, mine is too, but its killing the battery :(
[HTC Sensation] ifti_a:
hey faux

i know u mentioened beta 4 is fine on ur handset, maybe the upload is abit messed up ?

maybe you could post your md5 hashes just to make sure we have the same md5 ?
[HTC Sensation] muzicman0:
I flashed this kernel, and the zram script, and I lost root...su binary and superuser.apk is still there, but it crashes, and nothing can gain root privileges. has anyone else seen this? Did I do something wrong?

mm0

EDIT: I'm on stock 2.3.4 if it matters.
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
That is the superuser issue not the kernel. Just select automatic response and your good to go
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
SuperUser is EVIL! The latest 3.04, 3.05 are both BAD. Go to Settings->Applications and uninstall update for SuperUser and make sure to UNCHECK automatic update. (SuperUser is really EVIL because it checks automatic updates by itself without your approval :mad::mad::mad:)

your issues has NOTHING to do with my beta, all to do with SuperUser updates :eek:

faux, everythime i reboot my phone the cpu1 online files is rewritten... why? nothing in boot script... this happens after flash sense 3.5 hack without init post boot script and 0.2.2-4 kernel...
[HTC Sensation] silverdart:
Who owns my phone?

In post #1975 I wrote:

5. I love 4.1.3 (which has CPU 0 active and CPU 1 ondemand) because it gives me access to virtuous oc (6 files) and Daemon Controller with which I am able to change the clock speed.

I tried FauxClock and all the others and found that they can only effectively (maintain thru boot) CPU 0. CPU 1 (hardcoded somehow) however can not be controlled by them and reverts to 1.56 like you described above. On the other hand, mike1986 has been able to control them as described above (both CPU 0 and CPU 1 after boot). I would like nothing better than to be able to control it all with any app i desire but that is not the case.

I am stuck between a rock and a hard place

- If I use mike1986's ROM I get a faux123 kernal with ASYNC processors that are controlled with virtuous oc (6 files) and Daemon Controller.

- If I update to faux123 kernal on my own I lose ASYNC processors but still able to use mike1986's controller.

- To remove mike1986's controller I get the hardcoded situation you describe.

I would like to use ARHD and use any app I want and have full control of when and when not I use my processors and at what speed.

*** I thought I bought and own this phone - Hummm????????? ***
[HTC Sensation] Shroomster:
I hope this is as simple as I think, but to lower the overclock on the 1.5 kernel to 1.4 (1404000),

would I just be able to use the following script (borrowed from the OP about setting oem clock speed):

su

echo 192000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

echo 1404000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/online

echo 192000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

echo 1404000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq

This script would cover when the screen is off/phone not being used also?

If this is wrong, would someone point me to where I should be reading?
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
Screen off requires an app :p Your script will work in the upcoming beta ;) I am bring back SmartAssV2 with other Amazing Power Management, it will DRASTICALLY increase battery life while retaining all of my performance tweaks :eek:

As always, 1.566 GHz version ONLY, don't even ask for any other versions for Open BETA!

http://www.multiupload.com/LV8DDE3HUJ

Version 0.2.2 (Coming later, NO ETA DON'T ASK, Official GB2.3.4)

<01>

Increased ZRAM allocation for even MORE data in RAM (25%->33%) :D

Added newly optimized CRC32 Improves EVERYTHING that uses it including TCP/IP, File Systems etc... :eek:

Added newly optimized CRC32c improves EXT4 metadata performance and anything else which uses CRC32c :eek:

Patched msm_serial_hs_lite (better battery life)

Patched qdsp6v2 to fix unexpected power consumption (better battery life)

Patched mdp4_overlay to flush RGB pipe when solid fill mode is used (better battery life)

Patched clock-8x60 to add a lower gsbi_uart_clk entry to save power (better battery life)

Lowered Camera Flash limit from 30% to 10% :p

<02>

Added ZCache patches

(This concludes my ZRAM/Swap optimization)

<03>

Fail!

<04>

Enable ZCache by default (due to how HTC boot loader injects kernel params to kernel, zcache was never enabled, so I force the driver to enable zcache by default rather than depending on a boot cmdline)

<05>

(Internal Experimental)

<06>

(Internal Experimental)

<07>

Tweaked conservative governor for better interactive performance (made Default)

Enabled Deep Power Management Options (better battery life)

Lowered CPU Minimum Voltage (better battery life)

Gate smi_2x_axi_clk off when smi_clk is disabled (better battery life)

Fixed performance level computation for VCD (better performance)

Added local control of vpe_axi_clk and rot_axi_clk (better battery life)

Removed unnecessary checks from DMA engine (more efficient DMA Engine == performance)

(this concludes 022 tweaks)
