I really hate people who rate threads before they even see what it offers !!

FOR ME & i think a lot of other people, this is by far the BEST kernel i have ever used on my Sensation and together with IC, it's FLYING.

for me ARHD+Faux isn't as smooth as IC+Bricked.

when i used ARHD+faux or IC+faux i had to wait about 24 hours for the device to feel the smoothness and sometimes it is not smooth at all.

but with IC+bricked it was smooth from the moment i finished the setup and i've been using it for about a week now :).

and keep in mind i always full wipe before using any ROM or Kernel

so both setups were fresh installs !!

haven't tried ARHD+bricked yet but am already satisfied with the current setup IC+Bricked :)

3.92 rating is really not fare and doesn't do justice to this Kernel

people shouldn't rate this thread before they try the kernel
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
First of all, there is still information missing.

Furthermore: last version is not an adequate description which version you are using.

It may be the Stock XE Rom that is responsible. There are reports about only 1 cpu being used on stock xe. Which score did you get? And again, which clocks? Have you deleted the post-boot init shell script (a few pages back)?
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
That's my ROM and this all seems fine for me - no idea if it's only one CPU in use, though. It's just the stock ROM with no add ons

That's my ROM and I get 11000+ in CF-Bench

Hi

I am using Pyramid3D v7.5.0 XE does your Kernel work with this?
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
As long as it is base on a HTC RUU or leak it will work.
[HTC Sensation] durius:
This also happened to me...no connection on wi-fi. Reverting to 0.7
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
He was complaining about a poor wifi signal. You have none at all?
[HTC Sensation] gururise:
Thanks so much for the excellent Kernel. Been on 0.86-RC1 for 24 hours now without a single sleep-reboot! Wifi working perfect for me... (i'm on InsertCoin 2.5.3)

Is there any difference between 0.86 and 0.86-RC1? Should I upgrade?

Thanks again for all your work!!
[HTC Sensation] artymarty:
And i wasn't being sarcastic? :p

I am very respectful of other members. You may want to have a read of some of my answers to users questions that are extremely detailed and LONG. I not only take the time to answer but also educate them with a why..... Spending time is another form of respect...

However,

I cant resist a bit of a sarcastic prod now and then, which in this case was clearly NOT aimed at ptr_hamilton, but the 'angry mob' that were out to lynch show if he didn't pull the source code out his bum in 2 seconds flat last time.

So. :p to you good sir, with a cherry on top.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
It's the same.

Insert Coin 2.5.3 + Bricked 0.86 OnDemand @ 1.83Ghz 1312.5 mV

Insert Coin 2.5.3 + Bricked 0.86 OnDemand @ 1.83Ghz 1300 mV

Nice job show-p!!! :p

I'm doing some testing with different voltages and CPU speeds, I believe there is some thermal throttling getting in the way of higher benchmarks, because results are inconsistent. Sometimes you use a higher clock and get lower scores, and even with the same clock you usually get lower scores doing succesive tests, as if the CPU was slowing down reaching some temp. The more I lower the voltage, more consistent are succesive tests at the same clock speed. 1275mV seems to be the lowest i can use in my device and be stable @ 1.83 Ghz., anything lower and it reboots. 1.89 Ghz is not stable in my device at any voltage, I only managed to finish the test once at that speed and got low results with CF-Bench (that's when i started to think there's thermal throttling involved in the inconsistent results and started testing)

I also think that thermal throttling appears a little bit too soon, the phone never hangs when you use a too high clock, instead it reboots. I'm not using the highest voltage values, if i do the phone reboots so I think it's a temperature limit i've reached, not clock speed limit (higher voltage should allow for more speed). When the phone reboots it usually does it when testing "java memory write", I suppose that part of the bench stresses the CPU in a very intense way.

The phone gets hot while doing the tests, but i've seen it running much hotter before when i had the stock ROM and certainly does not feel too hot to the touch. I'm going to let it run at 1.83 Ghz for some time at 1300mV and see if it's completely stable.
[HTC Sensation] ptr_hamilton:
I know what you're talking about :) Didn't feel offended, btw

I thinks those people are the same that gave them low ratings to this thread, just to say f**k u to show-p

Nevertheless this kernel and also the way show-p helps people in this thread is awesome!

Btw thank you a lot show-p, I'm not having any issue, but a really fast Rom with your kernel combined with ic!
[HTC Sensation] hitman_05:
Hi, can this kernel be flashed over faux123 kernel or only over stock kernel? Thanks
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Can be flashed over anything, so long as the ROM is compatible
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Thank you for your intensive testing, I am seeing this too, well it doesn't have a large heatsink on it so this was expectable :D

Let me know if it is stable!

Sometimes : Keyboard unresponsive with Bricked 1.0

Hi Show,

I have a little issue with bricked 1.0 and Swype Keyboard.

Some times, (for example i want to write sms) the keyboard (i'm using Swype) is unresponsive, it appears but unresponsive (keys (hom back, search...) on the bottom are also unresponsive in this case) but the rest of the screen is working well, so as a workaround, i change my keyboard to the default one (Touch Input), but the keyboard still unresponsive, so i wait few seconds (about 15 sec) and after that, the keyboard is ok, so i switch back to Swype and it work :confused:

I'im using InsertCoin 5.4.0, but it was the same with insertcoin 5.3.0 (i flashed bricked 1.0 on this version too).

Thank's for your work, basass is so good :D

@++

TiTidom.

Edit : all options default on your kernel (no gpu oc, Sweep2Wake active with no backlight...)
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Any log?

And: does it happen with the default htc keyboard on your phone? I am asking because it doesn't happen on mine, htc + swiftkeyx are working fine on Sense 4 & 3.6.

Maybe somebody else can shed some additional light on that?
[HTC Sensation] biojo:
Hi was there any changes made to the wifi part of the kernel since installing 1.0 from Bricked-3.0-v0.955-ics, my screen every few minutes comes on any off but i notice when this happens the wifi signal bar is off then on.

I know its not my router breaking connection as its doing it at work.

any ideas? thanks
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Nope no changes.

Seems to be the new base from HTC, I too noticed that my wifi turns off while the phone sleeps for longer periods. (Yes, I have disabled wifi sleep)
[HTC Sensation] TiTidom:
I don't see anything in the logs (last_kmsg), but it's you the kernel master ;), so for sure, it will be more readable for you, lol.

If you need other logs, please give me the command to run, and i will put the results here ;)

Or perhaps a command line to run just after the next time it appears ? :confused:

When i switch from Swype to the default keyboard, the default keyboard is unresponsive too (but perhaps it already crashed and it is only the time to restart the service or the thread which control the keyboard...)

Thank's.

@++

TiTidom.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
just run

adb shell dmesg > %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\dmesg.log

within a few seconds after it happened. That will put the file on your desktop ;)

But it does not seem to be the kernels fault, the app is probably killing the touch input process of the rom (or the process crashes on its own).

[HTC Sensation] Muxeu:
No way :cool: I like sweep2wake too much and use it permanently. And my bug appears first time in last 2 weeks.
[HTC Sensation] TAGTRAUM:
It's CurrentWidget fail....Installed Battery monitor Widget and values are 2-11 mA :D
[HTC Sensation] sniperde:
Hey show,

it also occurs without sweep feature (I have not installed it).

It happens during / after calls, sometimes a soft reboot is done (after a certain time having just a black screen), sometimes you need a hard reboot.

Next time it happens I'll get you a log, have rebooted twice since then :(

[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Hmm that is interesting, then my initial assumption was incorrect. I am craving for that log though! :D

Due to the total lack of information I just assume that my kernel came with the rom for you.

If you install the kernel from my zip, from my page, then you won't get a quadrillion screenshots.

Interesting. I will revert the min brightness hack for now until I can figure out what the **** is going on there. :)

Having a problem where sweep to wake takes screens over and over. Sweep is taking more screens that locking or unlocking my phone now. I'll send logcat.

Edit* Got that log for you. Took me about 45 seconds of using sweep to wake on and off for the problem to happen. Once it did I did it over and over again. Prob took 6 or so screens.

Yes, with any oc app, over the terminal or with an init.d script.

command for terminal/init.d script:

echo "ondemand" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu{0/1}/cpufreq/scaling_governor

remember that cpu1 needs to be online to change the governor!

just edit your build.prop.

Search for:

ro.htc.framework.screencapture = false

and change false into true.

New beta: v1.05

New stuff inside ;) and whats worth more: only 8MB of size ;)

Zip:
* add cmdline gpuoc for 2D & 3D (this lowers kernel size back to 8MB and provides more customization)
---Also allows independent setting of 2D/3D frequencies
* modify badass freq increase to fit new changes in sysfs and provide more customization
* add 3 presets for sysfs which will be installed as init.d script through the installer
---battsave / balanced / performance

Em, no, it's not the worst one. It just has disadvantages like the rest. I've had good trials with it on my phone. Seems to work well.

Try it. If you don't like it, change to another one.

I would personally recommend it based on my own findings.

@show

hope this is not too late to report to you..on v1.0 stable release would like to comment regading badass..one thing i noticed was scrolling was not that smooth as in ondemand..also the unit is alot warmer than when on ondemand.. :confused:

Games was a bit choppy and laggy with Badass so i went back to Ondemand just to keep things NORMAL..

max frequency is just 1350mhz and max screen off is on 384(no issues with S2W with this)..both on the low GPU OC version..did give them a full cycle drain before i switch over..

currently i am downloading the new beta..hope you can squeeze out something from my observations..also on the aroma installer..if you decide to reboot can you put a delay like 2-3 seconds before it reboots..well if that would be just possible..also would like to ask if you can put BFQ in as an IO sched..i am used with BFQ with my tweaks.. :p

edit found some good read on IO scheds(some) from IBM

I would like to ask one thing, is there any possible way to get boot.img for 1.0 kernel version? Im still with s on so after I flashed CoinDroid 1.0.0 I need to flash proper boot.img via flashboot but as for as I saw there is a note at op that:

"Because it creates a boot.img out of the one on your phone while flashing"

For now I flashed boot.img from 0.55 version but most of the things like sweep2wake, badass gov and wifi wont work with it :/ I will be very thankful for someone who can make one because Im not so experienced to make it on my own :/

Sorry if it has be asked before :/ Im new here :)

Nonsense. While it may be worse than deadline in benchmarks, it will provide a better usage experience. (It's hard to explain the differences without getting too technical)

I noticed that too and that's why I released beta 1.05 more quickly than I was planning, which addressed most issues with badass. There will be the 1.1 final soon.

I am not and never was a fan of BFQ. It has too many hooks in too many things for my taste and I won't build a standalone version just for bfq ;)

Just install the kernel zip you want from recovery. Then stay in recovery (do not select the auto reboot option) and connect your phone to your computer.

Do this:

adb pull /tmp/newboot.img
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash boot newboot.img
fastboot reboot

Done ;)
[HTC Sensation] Tromador:
I think there is a lot of misunderstanding regarding the IO scheduler. Its job is to control the transfer of data from the disk to memory, for access by the applications. Applications request data via the kernel and the scheduler decides in what order to fetch and deliver it.

The link given above shows a lot of graphs and data, but it's meaningless. What works in a server environment with multiple raid arrays spread over 192 physical disks has nothing to do with what will be best for a smartphone with a flash card.

Tweaking the IO scheduler if you don't know what you are doing is silly and will get unpredictable results that you won't understand. CFQ is (and has been for over 5 years) the default IO scheduler for Linux generally. It's a good generic choice and a good starting point for any deployment. It comes as no surprise to me that it works decently in our environment.

It may well be that something like the NOOP scheduler (generally reckoned good in a flash environment) might be quicker if properly tuned, but the only real way you'll know is by "feel" as one other poster noted. Benchmarks are always somewhat artificial, as they don't represent real usage patterns.

Honestly, until a verifiable kernel IO expert can say differently, I'd just stick with CFQ, which is working decently enough with our handsets.
