Thanks for the fast reply. No OC apps. Just the base IC-2.5.5-2

It only seems to happen after my phone has been sleeping (or charging) for a long period of time and I wake it up. If I turn off the screen and turn it back on in a few seconds, its smooth as butter... only happens if the screen has been off for a long time. I'll start removing apps and see if one of them is causing it.
[HTC Sensation] frostmore:
sweetness,i'll wait for the bluetooth and wifi spot to be fixed in your next update.

this brings me to a burning question.

were you able to find out for sure that it was the cpu that is generating a lot of heat?

seems like even when i under clock the cpu and idling,heat is still around the 30++ region.this cannot be found in single core cpu like my inspire.

suppose we utilize the dual core capability to the fullest,is there a way to maintain the performance by dividing the load between 2 cores at an underclocked speed (6oo mhz on both,thereby giving a total of 1.2ghz),thus reducing heat??

i am not an expert when it comes to kernels and cpu stuff.but i am willing to learn and find out.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Which version are you using? The ondemand or smartassv2 default governor verion? (I am on ondemand, works perfectly)

Bluetooth and WIFI-Hotspot are working fine here. But not on the CM7 version of this kernel (there are some aosp drivers that keep ****ing me up -.-)

That's not how an aSMP CPU works. And usually a 30°C CPU internal temperature is perfectly ok for idling. (Take in consideration that it goes up to 71°C when heavily using both cores)

Ofc the cpu generates the most heat in our sensation, because it is a SoC design.

Furthermore I see no problem with the current heat development in our handsets, mine is running perfectly stable @ default clocks and with an ambient temperature of 26°C. It will reach the max temp and begin to throttle the cpu after 5-10 minutes of high usage on both cores, which is ok for me.

Apps should be optimized to use as little cpu as possible (there are some apps that produce a result A and there are apps that produce this result A using half that cpu/gpu power)

This cannot be done in the Kernel, this is the responsibility of app designers.

(Take a look at sense for an example. Fancy like ****, and zero optimization done. That is why it is eating up all of our resources. They keep adding new features without working on the old ones)
[HTC Sensation] wcoast:
What's the best way to get 0.91 run at 1536 by default on my sensation with IC ROM. My issue is that from 0.6 to 0.91 my system runs at 1890 as default which cause my battery to be very HOT and drains like crazy. I appreciate all the help I can get.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
If you have no OC apps installed, it runs with 1536 as default. (Hardcoded)

If your phone somehow is overclocking to 1890Mhz on it's own, then some OC-App or script is interfering with the kernels settings. (also check init.post-boot.sh)
[HTC Sensation] wcoast:
Is there a known app that can cause this issue & how do I check init.post-boot.sh
[HTC Sensation] gururise:
I am using the default ondemand governor with 0.91. I just tried again with the blue-skies live wallpaper (The lag is really only noticible when using a live wallpaper). I let the phone go to sleep for an hour, and then woke it up and got lag for about 10-15 seconds before everything was snappy again.. Again, I'm using no overclocking apps.. just a plain install of InsertCoin 2.5.5-2

Seems like the phone has to go to sleep for a while before the lag will show up. I removed several apps and rebooted the phone, but I still have the lag if I let the phone sleep for a while before waking it up.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
#1 The usual OC-Apps might, when miss-configured (because you set them up on another kernel for example), lead to this behaviour.

#2 delete /system/etc/init.post_boot.sh

Seems to be an issue with this particular live wallpaper. It's data will be wiped from the ram while in deep sleep mode and the phone needs to reload everything.

hmmm i have a different sha-1 number

i get his: 18dd8c39455179aeb9c008eee7cc6dd316728116

does that mena the file is corrupted?

if so that will probably explain why i had a hot phone:p
[HTC Sensation] vivmar:
how can i do that?

SHA1 is correct.
[HTC Sensation] miniterror:
lol yowrted down a different code in youre reply:p

the i dont understand what happend and i had a warm device:s

will give it another shot and see what happens
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Maybe you want to try this #80
[HTC Sensation] miniterror:
yep i have seen that one but to be honest i am a person who is verry unlucky with those kind of things:p

for instance with the 0.4 i am the only one wich had a heated device:s

so ill give 0.4 another shot as im home now and have my computer next to me to make logcat if nessacary.

in the end im still curious why it happend to me:p

also im beta tester of coredroid and i mostly have problems others dont have although i fully whiped(manually and with zip)

think its my luck i get back from the devices when i stopped cooking wm.

they dont like me anymore:p
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Well actually, if its a kernel issue I would like to see the kmsg too ;)

Btw: You can do that from your phone. Open ConnectBot or whatever Terminal App you use and do this:

logcat > /sdcard/logcat.txt

cat /proc/kmsg > /sdcard/kmsg.txt
[HTC Sensation] vivmar:
hey, show-p1984

about kmsg for cm7 problems:

right now i have changed kernel for be able to reboot into cm7...if i write those commands on terminal and i give to you that logcat is it right for you even if i have a different kernel?
[HTC Sensation] LittleMerc:
Reporting. So far still have not seen any problem. Mobile network works like usual,still somehow connection freezes here and there a little. Device does feel a little warmer than when used with kernel v0.4. The rest, running fine. Will report in further after a day use tomorrow. After 1 say use with IC 2.4.5-2 with v0.4,i had my mobile connection on nonstop,normal syncing and with plenty of use in whatsapp and several calls and used it to listen music plus watched a 1hour 28mins movie,and still left with about 35% when i got home at 11pm (unplugged at 8.30am). I am using anker battery. Will report on battery use by tomorrow. Gotta sleep now or i m gona be like a walking zombie at work tomorrow. Thanks pshow. Over and out.
[HTC Sensation] miniterror:
hmmm still getting warm within 5 min of use only browsing xda a little,

less warm then it did this morning though

i made the two files hope its good

turned it on from terminal and then turned screen off

hope you see anything strange in there and i didnt waste youre time:p
[HTC Sensation] matmar:
So far so good !

No issue to report...
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Nope, you should do something else (since you can't access your phone while bootlooping)

Flash Bricked on your cm
Boot it
when display goes blank after splash remove bat
Insert bat and enter cwm, flash bootable kernel
post this file: /proc/last_kmsg

Perhaps I can make some sense out of that ;)

Installed bricked .91 on sensation Arhd 3.6.0 worked great

Currently going on my 12th hour and battery is still at 62

However I am only able to overclock to 1.89 for about 10min before my phone goes into a frenzy of loops. Which is too bad. Hopefully I'll be able to get that to work.

Great job on this one certainly a plus coming from faux 1.9 thanks
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Thank you ;)

1,89 may be the limit of your chip :(
[HTC Sensation] MusicMan374:
Maybe it's because I just flashed root over this as soon as I got clockworkmod flashed. Does root modify boot.img? I'll try a rom like arhd and test it there. Maybe it just won't work with a non custom rom. I'll try a custom rom.

[HTC Sensation] artymarty:
Hey Show-p1984 I need some help.

Somthing is causing a drain, a rogue app or something.

I know you recommended watchdog, but there are a few watchdog apps, and I cant find the one with the options that will give you a detailed log of the exact power use of each app...

can you please tell me the exact name of the app, and the version too, because that might be the issue.. "App Watchdog" for example has a market description that you can sort by power use etc, and its NOWHERE in the app - so I have no idea what the dev has done? uploaded the wrong version to the market?

Also, I am using .91 kernel on 2.2.5se insert coin rom, with the latest radio... perhaps its not a good combination?

Warmly, Marty

hi show ,

it it possible that you release a temporarely version of your latest kernel to work on 2.3.5

there was a way to get a 2.3.3 kernel work on 2.3.4 ... i think mdj did that ...

could you bring a temp-kernel till final comes out ??

0.91 w/insertcoin 2.3.5 v2.4.3 progress

Hi, just wanted to touch base and let you know things are running smooth on IC 2.4.3 android 2.3.5 using latest bricked kernel 0.91. no freezeing, reboots or hangups, and no speed issues.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Watchdog Task killer iirc.

Yes and no.

This kernel works with 2.3.5, just not with the new leaked RUU from htc. No idea why not, I awoke 10 minutes ago :p
[HTC Sensation] henrik.dk:
Just dummy questions:

if I flash the kernel, could I set the maximum freq manually?

What is the benefit? In general the phone is fast enough. There might be benefit

for movie playing. Will I gain something when surfing?

Will it in general burn more power?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Higher frequency = more heat = less battery duration.

You may see a difference in certain games that use very much cpu power, but that was it. 1536 is fast enough for everything.
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
would be nice to see an update for the leaked ruu .... love your kernel
[HTC Sensation] henrik.dk:
thanks.

I am really not a heavy gamer. Battery life is more important.

So will I gain anything if I set the max freq back to 1.2 (if possible) using this kernel? I use it for GPS navigation also. It is important that it last long ...
[HTC Sensation] ziggimon:
Henrik,

I would recommend that you do the following:

1: Add show-p1984's undervolting script - Added on post with max 1.2 ghz

2: Go to ebay and buy an anker batteri 1900mah - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Anker-Battery-HTC-Sensation-4G-G14-1900mAh-internationa-/140583315571?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item20bb6b2873

I added two versions show's script, one for 1.2Ghz and one for 1.5Ghz. Place one of them in /etc/system on your phone and chmod it to 755.

This has really helped on my battery life. Am on day two and still above 50% battery life.
[HTC Sensation] miniterror:
i really wonder how you guys do that.

i use it at 1.2ghz and i lowerd voltages with system tuner.

i used the -12.5mv button til 1.2 ghz whas at 1000mv

still with those settings i can only get 4 hours screen on time(i think screen on time is the most important thing)

i already have a anker batterie and i calibrated it like 10 times now.

on topic:

how is the rewrite going show for 1.0?
[HTC Sensation] ziggimon:
Not sure what works for you, but I remove extra stuff on the phone. Eg don't use the google search stuff, so I removed that, the same goes for htc watch, reader, stock, twitter, google voice and all the other apps I Don't use. Used Titanium Backup (payed version, gives option of freezing apps). And then I guess radio and provider also has a thing to say. where I work I can throw a stone at my providers nearest antenna. So most of the time, I'm close to excellent coverage. Also I try to keep my phone on wifi as much as possible, since it uses less power keeping a connection.

Also at night I use display brightness to a minimum.
[HTC Sensation] miniterror:
Hmmm i already deleted all the stuff i dont use with tb.

It whas the free version and i didnt freeze them but then again it gets deleted so why should it be frozen?

As for the screenbrightnes i already have it at manual so nothing i can do there:(

Thanks anyway
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
ofc clocks @ 1,2Ghz will save some battery. Even undervolting to a lower voltage will. But remember: A cpu is not a light-bulb ;)

Currently trying to figure out the new ruu problem....
[HTC Sensation] henrik.dk:
Thanks. I will definitely give it a try.

---------- Post added at 04:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:58 PM ----------

How about performance. Then at the 1.2GHz, will the performance better than the stock one? Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Ofc the performance will be better than stock. Just try it urself, it will save you hours of asking questions and waiting for answers ;)
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
Do you make progress in 235 kernel for sense 3.5 ?
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:

*v0.91* [ondemand, smartassv2 optional, PREEMPTIBLE, recommended]

ehm, what's the cpu speed? oO 1.53? Why does it show 1.89 in cf bench, hm... And LOOOOW result there - 5790! oO (10037\2960\5790)
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Bug in cf-bench. It sometimes detects the max speed and thinks it was the current speed.

Change clocks (one time down/up) with any of your desired oc apps or with echo. Should be fixed.

This result is indeed low, maybe your phone is preoccupied in doing sth else.
[HTC Sensation] -DC-:
6441 after reset. still low afaik
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
@1536Mhz speed. That's not low for general, but low for bricked. Maybe change the rom? Vladnosferatu has managed to get some crazy values.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
You know if your kernels will work with this new 2.3.5 RUU? Interested if you can get some performance out of it

Can anyone here name a single game that actually needs the CPU to be overclocked in order to run smoother?

I see people going bananas over how they OC'd their device to 10GHz and **** and how Benchmark points quadruplet and so on. But what's the point??? Am I missing something here?

All the games in the market are designed so that they would run on as many devices as possible. So, why torture your cpu? The games run the same no matter if you have 1.2, 1.7 or 8 GHz :rolleyes:

it's not like you're playing ****ing Crysis on your phone. Please correct me if I'm wrong

Otherwise, saubere Arbeit show-p! Bist mein Held mit dem 3D fix ;)

Are you refering to the penis? penis pump? or the BARgraph :D
[HTC Sensation] Vipeout:
While I can see good reason for using means of penis enlargment if your wiener is too small, I cannot see it in Overclocking your CPU above 1.5GHz and drooling over the +10% in benchmarks. This actually can harm your CPU and most certainly will adversely affect your battery life due to higher power consumption. I mean, why do something that only gives you disadvanteges while not enhancing you end-user experience in any way?

I used to overclock the **** of all my PC GPUs, but that actually allowed my to play with higher settings
[HTC Sensation] ziggimon:
Actually penis enlargement also harms your merchandise.. So in both cases it is a bad idea :D

I'll try going down to 1ghz, let's see how it runs.

Lol. 972mhz, lowered voltage, and still beating stock. How good is that.
[HTC Sensation] Vipeout:
How did you do it and can you please tell me your voltage/settings?

I never tempered with the CPU clock but I figure I don't need 1.5Ghz for writing sms and checking mails, so I'd rather have the addtional battery juice (or the smaller penis, to put it in your words ;) )
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Use System Tuner, tweaks option. It's self explanatory there really.

972mhz doesn't seem to have great effect on battery life, my guess is that it's because second core kicks in sooner than with higher frequencies. Looks like HTC nailed it with 1.18 and bricked makes it run smoothly at that freq. Will play around with undervolt, just waiting for some guidance from show on what are safe voltages.
