Was it a full reboot (complete like after a battery pull) or a hotreboot (just Android restart) ?

In last_kmsg I see a lot of low memory entries and see you're using the "Aggressive" LMK setting...

Have you tried using stock htc ?

Or do you set this somewhere else (SystemTuner or similar) ?

JP.
[HTC Sensation] daredevil_off:
i think it was a hotreboot. (screen went off completely, then i pressed the power button and android's restarted)

yes, i do use aggressive LMK settings from your aroma settings. and no, i haven't tried stock HTC settings since i flashed arhd 6.8.0 XE.

i don't use anything like SystemTuner.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
OK, it it was a hotreboot, that forget my assumptions, those were based on last_kmsg (which is the kernel log prior to a full reboot).

I'll have a look at logcat then...

JP.
[HTC Sensation] daredevil_off:
thank you,

it happened a few times actually,

-following a link from twitter and going to chrome,

-or without linking. using chrome,

-or using facebook app.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Just to be 100% certain, did you get the htc splash screen ? Or did you have to reenter your PIN (simcard) ?

Looking at the kmsg, I don't see much unusual, but last_kmsg is showing a lot of app-kills, some are system apps so dunno if that can trigger a reboot ?

JP.
[HTC Sensation] daredevil_off:
i didn't see beats logo but white android splash screen and it didn't seem to me a Sense restart which sometimes happens after browsing a lot with chrome. i don't use any PIN number for mobile.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Hard call then, all those would have helped to find out the kind of reboot you had ;)

I'd say try setting LMK to allow going lower, or at best, try stock htc values.

JP.
[HTC Sensation] daredevil_off:
thank you a lot. I'll give a try.

I recall that some people also reported some reboots due to s2w. so I wanted to provide some logs which would help.

have a good evening, sir.

But why airplane mode? We said that it oddly seems to use more battery in Wi-Fi than 3g...
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Oh well, I tested with WiFi and Mobile, then airplane on 010b6... This was just to compare 010b6 with 010b2 and I just kept it to the last I tested on 010b6 (which was fine for me in both scenarios, on- and offline).

OK, it's still time, my Sensy is on my desk, I'll get it back online, take a snapshot of the current situation and put it to rest.

We'll see tomorrow morning then ;)

[HTC Sensation] zooster:
In the meantime I noticed that in betterbatterystats when I have BT enabled I get a lot of MSM_SERIAL_HS_....

Isn't it something related to msm 7xxx cpu? Why it's there? Maybe this is something preventing phone to go into deepsleep?

Hello! I tried to undervolt under 800mv and i couldnt. Here is the script i use with bricked kernel but it doesnt work in this one.

http://db.tt/tvRu3uBI

Btw, i tried bricked because its supposed to be more battery friendly but it get more battery with faux. Anyone else noticed that?

Enviado desde mi HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio usando Tapatalk 2
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Faux's kernel limits lowest voltage to 800mV, Bricked allows for lower.

That's not making much sense, most devices fail sooner, and the benefits of UV are very marginal, the risk of causing instability is quite high, like phone runs fine on light use and all of sudden randomly reboot, because some task put more load on the CPU and due to UV in the higer freq. range it crashed...

I can undervolt my Sensation to -100mV accross the full range fine, benefit, well, not really measurable.

On my S3 kernel I haven't included UV at all to circumvent stability problems caused by users who want to squeeze just that one drip too much out of their device and would end blaming the kernel for instability eventually :(

Test it over a few days, using the exact same setup / apps etc. with and without UV and see for yourself...

[HTC Sensation] rq005:
Thanks for your reply. I ran a stability test with that scripts values with bricked and it wasnt unestable at all. But again, i dont know if it really makes a difference in battery since i got better results with fauxs kernel (maybe im wrong dunno, i didnt make a battery test, it was just what it feels like).
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Anyway, if you can spare the time to compare, would be interesting to have an additional "showcase" if UV makes a noticeable difference at all. Somewhere it will make one, obviously, the question being, is the potential risk worth the difference...

Dunno :( All I managed to gather so far is that reports of reboots all seem to come from Viper users, or did I miss someone ?

And on Viper thread I read also people getting this with briked but not Sebs, so Viper & s2w don't seem to get along too well, but this is pure assumptions... but I have no tangible data to work on I'm afraid...

Faux at some point made a non-Sense kernel, but I for my part never did, nor repacked one in Aroma, so if it's an Aosp kernel you need :confused:

If it's Sense, go for 010b6.

Hello Yank,

I tried stock HTC values for my sensation (not sensation XE) which provided me around 90 mb free ram whatever i do, and during the testing i observed only one reboot while using s2w. I can confirm that these stock values are more stable than aggresive LMK values. But i also can confirm that my device runs definetely faster than with stock LMK values since it provides 150 mb or more free ram. Maybe moderate LMK values provide both more stability and fast enough device.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
That is the part you need to explore, find a good balance.

Still, seldom reboots wouldn't be good enough for me ... I had really rocksolid stability using HNS, I'd not be satisfied with any less ;)

I am still suspicious if these instabilities are not the result of the 'port' and 'tweaks'... porting is a very very tricky thing to do, and the job done is great, but still it is a port, so it may be flawed.

Also all the tweaks it come with, nice, but imho quite dangerous stuff for those users that select by 'keyword' (like multitasking' ...) without really knowing

and understanding

what's actually behind this.

I'm speaking in general terms here, not your case specifically, don't get me wrong.

I'd be curious if you ran HNS on your device if it'd be as unstable ... might be worth a try.

hi yank

how about ARHD? o my.. i suddenly feel sad leaving VIPER i fell in love with this Rom already but the reboot stinks me.. Everytime it reaches red bar signal on my battery it reboots afterwards. im on faux 10b6 with 256hardswap.
[HTC Sensation] daredevil_off:
of course, i don't get you wrong. you're trying to help us. so, all of us are thankful to you.

i want to make it clear that my device configuration is as in my signature and additional tweaks are JB animations, %fix, ARHD ext4 tweaks and no other tweaks. thus, i don't think it's related to tweaks but s2w with low max screen off freq. If i would have time, I would test it, too!

I think I'll leave it with aggresive LMK values and ARHD 6.8.0 XE with JB animations, %fix, ARHD ext4 tweaks and no other tweaks. For my device this is the optimum case for performance and battery.

Why am i reluctant to change it to the HNS? because I will give my sensation to my sister whenever i got One X+.

thank you for your efforts.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Arhd is fine, that's 99.9% stock, deodexed and zipaligned. I ended up using HNS as I don't really like Sense (I'm the exception ;)).

ARHD was the ROM I used before going Virtuous Inquisition then HNS, as those are faster and more battery friendly, and since I didn't use most of Sense anyway, using Sense stripped ROMs made perfect 'sense' to me :D

But guys, I'm not trying to rush you away from Viper ! That's just my experience for my use of my Sensation.

JP.

PS: Btw I've removed TouchWiz from my SGS3, so it's a pattern for me somehow, I just seem to like AOSP style ;)

soft reboot

Hello,

Just got soft reboot.was talking on Skype and plug in the headset.some day ago,I also get a soft reboot when using Skype and opened a stock browser.

- faux 010b6

- cfq

- zram

Last kmsg appended.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
You're certain it was a hot reboot and not a full reboot ?

Hmm ... if you get a hotreboot, that means that only "Android" restarted, not the whole system, thus last_kmsg doesn't contain anything relevant, since it's the last kernel messages prior to the last full system restart :(

Logcat would help more in this case.

I can only recommend using "The Untouchable" 's tool, it takes a snapshot of all possible logs, so you're certain to have the right one in there somewhere.

JP.

EDIT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just gave a quit look, you get

LOADS

of low memory warnings, and induced killings going on in there ...

You might consider raising your LMK settings...

[HTC Sensation] htcsensationxeuser:
Hey. I'm have been receiving better battery life here than the other kernels. However, the charging speed is horribly long. Can anyone fix this?
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Can you give a little more details on that ?

What charger (wall, USB), how many mA/h does it charge (use Batteri Monitor Widget or the like) ? ...

JP.
[HTC Sensation] htcsensationxeuser:
Here you go..
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
OK, so you're on AC charger and it can't charge the device if it's running...

Have you checked :

- a different cable

- a different charger

I've seen very often issue with cables (sometimes chargers as well).

There is nothing in the kernel that changes anything when on AC, only when USB is detected (fast charge), and then it would either behave as stock or charge faster, but that is not the case here since AC is properly detected.

Or are you an USB with fastcharge active ??

JP.
[HTC Sensation] htcsensationxeuser:
Nope. I'm using the default wire and charger. I disabled fastcharge during the aroma installation. So is this a hardware problem?
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
I suspect it is as the kernel code for AC charging is 100% stock...

[HTC Sensation] mandeep294:
i too sometimes have a hot reboot.. and same low mem warnings.. but i use stock lmk settings..
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
hot reboots are almost never kernel related, it's the userspace restarting ...

If you get those log entries on stock LMK settings, I'm tempted to think that the values you set in Aroma then just get overwritten by other Tweaks (apps)...

Check if the values you see in the "991_kernel" file really are those you're using after full boot is complete (in a terminal "cat <filname>").

JP.
[HTC Sensation] brice83:
like mandeep294, i use stock LMK settings.but the values in the file 99z_kernel are not the same with those on venon tweak:

in file:

# -
Set Android Low Memory Killer (in number of pages of 4Kbytes)
# Forground apps : 4252 pages / 16.61Mb
# Visible apps : 5416 pages / 21.15Mb
# Secondary server : 6580 pages / 25.70Mb
# Hidden apps : 7946 pages / 31.04Mb
# Content providers : 13664 pages / 53.38Mb
# Emtpy apps : 16854 pages / 65.84Mb

in venom tweak:
[HTC Sensation] Sharpi1:
Yank where can I find your latest Version?
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
That's what I meant. The startup script will

always loose

against an APP, so

always

check the values on your system, don't expect the one you chose in Aroma to be one you're really running on.

Aroma settings only work well if you don't use any app to set those, like but not limited to :

- SetCPU

- System Tuner

- Venom Tweaks

- ...

I am not saying that is a bad thing, but just be aware of this !!

BTW, even if Venom Tweaks says those values in the screenshot to be "stock" those are not, the stock kernel on the Sensation uses are those in the code above it (not big difference, though).

But to be 100% certain what your current setting really is, type this in a terminal :

cat /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree

That are the actual values your kernel is using, without

any

doubt.

The values you will get are number of pages, a page is 4K, so just multiply be 4 and you will have the actual values in kb, as shown in my script.

[HTC Sensation] :
hello, are you sure that is not a problem of the battery contacts?

happened to me the same thing recently, after several tests I was able to understand that the problem was in the battery contacts that did not adhere well to the body of the phone.

I just put a small piece of paper between the body of the battery and the battery and I have solved the problems of reboots.
[HTC Sensation] Yank555:
Well it can be many things ... undervolting, or if you receive the call while on standby it could be screen off max frq being to low, or CPU OC being too high in general ... or bad battery contacts even.

It's really hard to tell from where I stand.

Although most if not all of what I just stated should lead to a full reboot, not just a hotreboot...

I don't believe much in voodoo techniques, but just in case, have you wiped battery stats ?

On the S3 these get autwiped each time the battery hits "full", can't remember for the Sensation. Looks like your readings are off or sth.
