Apologies if this has been discussed and I missed it, but System Tuner/CPU Spy cannot find the frequency time stats with this kernel.

Can this be added easily in the next revision?

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Look in the above Quoted post (truncated).

Already answered and it iwll be in the next revision.
[HTC Sensation] bigkris74:
Thank you kindly.

Otherwise, kernel seems rock solid for me. Top effort for an early release.

Not sure why others are experiencing issues but my phone at idle (according to system tuner) is 26c which is currently only about 4c above current room temp. CPU1 always offline unless needed and CPU0 only flicks up with minor activity.

I have an Anker 1900mah and am a low phone user, but battery look pretty epic to me ... ;)
[HTC Sensation] LKW-Hermes:
Your phone is in standby the hole Time so no wonder that you have so much rest on you battery use your phone an you will see hoe much you can use it . Look here is the same if you dont use your phone an let it stay in standby .
[HTC Sensation] bigkris74:
Thanks for enlightening me as to my phone usage habits, I am well aware of how and why the battery gets used.

I do believe I mentioned I was a low phone user, and my point was that this kernel is NOT contributing to unusual battery usage (for me) as mentioned by others.

My phone is a tool, not just a toy.

:)
[HTC Sensation] -DC-:
Anyone tried it with the latest energy rom?
[HTC Sensation] LKW-Hermes:
Ok we dont want to fight here we all know that showp kernel allways good One point is it depend on kernel too but it allways depent on usage of the user .

Keep going showp i like to look forward to see your next " BrickDrOid" kernel :eek:
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
If leedroid comes back from his way too extensive sleep cycle, well yeah maybe :P

So far I have made some progress on my side, eyecandy and test build hitting twitter within this hour ;)

Update:

For all the Benchmaniacs:
[HTC Sensation] Abaddon:
Saw that trip made his kernel based on yours :D anyone tried his? Anyway i love this kernel :D
[HTC Sensation] cwibel:
It's sense 3.6 I see there's a new version of Your kernel - 3.0-v0.3 What is difference between 3.0-v0.2 and with which one i will have better battery life?
[HTC Sensation] Alganon:
Yep, using this combination right now. installed yesterday evening. Everything working fine so far, but it's to early to tell how battery life compares to stock, but it looks good so far :)
[HTC Sensation] M pro:
Is the Max clock for this one still 1.56ghz?

any chance of one that goes to 1.8ghz as a tester ;)
[HTC Sensation] Byrana:
Using 0.35 and have no problems so far. Have you UV'ed some more? CPU spy works fine now. Thanks!

What is the max temp for the CPU? I was using maps for driving, Google music, CPU is at 1,2 GHz and the temperature went up to 62 degrees, that's almost a bit to hot for my taste.
[HTC Sensation] Marusaia:
I've test your Kernel, it's great but i have a few problems:

My cpu0, stay a 1133 Mhz instead of 1566 Mhz. Can't make it higher (even if i put it to 1566 with system tuner pro)

Can't wake up cpu1.

Maybe i have a probleme with my phone, but With the rom's kernel (leedroid ics v700 kernel V1.1.0 3.0.25), no problem.

I'll make more tests with the new released in the future.
[HTC Sensation] cyanogendroid:
works with sense 4?
[HTC Sensation] shiningarmor:
any1 getting no market connection with wifi?
[HTC Sensation] Gunkk:
Mine works

Sent from my brain
[HTC Sensation] shiningarmor:
im on 0.35 btw. wifi icon greyed out, still can surf the web but not market. it just wont connect
[HTC Sensation] papete:
I also thought the patch was needed. It happens that stock ICS kernel supports 2WCR (excellent quality btw, I'm using skvalex's app). I'm on one of Sebastian's hex-edited kernels, so if show-p didn't touch anything on that part, my guess is that it should be enabled...
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
I'm on 0.35 as well (ignore my sig), got no problems over here.

try searching apps or whatsoever
[HTC Sensation] Byrana:
Seems like you have no connection with your Google account, for whatever reasons. Greyed out symbol means no connection to Google. Mine is working fine by the way.
[HTC Sensation] shiningarmor:
seems like my phone is extremely hot when charging.. weird..

it's 60c now.
[HTC Sensation] smartmobee:
just flash the kenel and then i can't install apk from sdcard, no option to allow unknown source ! Sorry for my English !
[HTC Sensation] Catpoule:
@show

i tested a lot of kernel, quite all last release, but i have to say that i'm in love with your last bricked kernel. Do you plan higher clocks like 1.62 ? 1.78 ?

and at least do you have a way to enable zram automatically ? I'm on Elegancia and it does not enable automatically for me ,i have to do it each time, at each boot, using terminal ... it's not very simple ....

good work show !!
[HTC Sensation] birel3107:
I've expirienced that with IC Beta 10 and Bricked v0.3 my phone is really gettin hot when I use it. I played poker for about 20 minutes and my temperatur went up to 62°C (according to System Tuner Pro). Then I undervolted by -50 and also got a very hot phone.

(Same with stock kernel)

Is there a way to keep the phone cool?

I went back to ARHD 6.5.2 in order to prevent any damage.

PS: I've a Sensation XE, firmware 3.32 if that helps.
[HTC Sensation] shiningarmor:
btw show, sebastian released his kernel source if u havent noticed =)
[HTC Sensation] Catpoule:
great news .... i saw it too :D

thanks to sebastiann for that ...
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Just a quick note to people moaning about battery life.

As far as I know you have to let a kernel/rom settle in for a couple of days before you can measure battery life properly. You need to at least a couple of uninterrupted full charge/discharge cycles.

If I'm wrong though just ignore me :-)
[HTC Sensation] lightninbug:
AFAIK you are right. I have been doing exactly that since my G1 days. :D ...First battery cycle on any kernel (custom or not) usually sucks, but over time it gets significantly better! :cool:
[HTC Sensation] Headbanger1982:
I have a really sensational battery life with v0.3

I'm at 70% after 12h of use, 1.5h of screen on and 2.5h without signal (because I work in a modern catacomb, downtown of a damn european medieval city with walls that are 1mt large, good for a nice phone signal fix...)

Show-P you're magical!
[HTC Sensation] nicob:
Disappointing... only three commits and a few line changed compared to the HTC base... That's nothing compared to the changes faux and snow make in one day... (I see that the cpufreq fix is pushed a few minutes ago by Snow-p in his experimental branch ...)
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
Talked w/ Show and he mentioned it didnt even include the multitouch fix . Nice one....
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
#2 post.

Look into /system/etc/thermald.conf for those settings.

Yes. No. ;)

I am still trying to fix the mpdecision stuff the smart and elegant way, then the kernel will be unlocked to 1944mhz.

That's 2 phase ondemand. It will increase the clock above 1,13 if it is needed.

Regarding the cpu1 always offline problem: Check if you have not renamed your mpdecision, it has 755 permissions, and if you are even using your cpu enough to allow cpu1 to wake up.

#1 post.

You are on aosp, or senseless roms?

Either way, all working fine here.

Zram is activating automatically, I have said that a few posts up already.

If it is not, your rom chef screwed up :p

Either he did not include busybox, or he did not modify the boot.img (init.rc) to allow init.d scripts to be executed upon boot.

It seems to be a sense 4 issue. But I have tried some other sense 4 roms yesterday with bricked and found that they stay way cooler than ic Betas. Maybe only luck, I didn't test it very long. (I can't go without bluetooth)

That's already in 0.35 (the twitter test I threw out). I did push those commits with a few hours delay because I was tired and had already powered down my pc when it struck my that I forgot to push =/ Sorry for that.
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
No multitouch fix??? Nooooooo, I was just above to flash the kernel, but if it's true, I'll wait.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
screw it...

I am now fixing it myself...

Tired of waiting for a source which should have been there all along.
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
No 100% sure, need a changelog. Just mentioned what we discussed over twitter :(

---------- Post added at 08:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 PM ----------

Thanks man! Totally sucks having to re-invent the wheel, but its is MUCH appreciated (I know a lot of others will appreciate it as well). I cant believe Seb released source W/O the fix included, w/ just OC tables.
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
multi-touch kernel patch included ^
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Thanks, but I already got that now =/

(Not that I don't appreciate it :p)

Why don't you have a public git? I could have cherry-picked that with credits a long time ago... ;)
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
because it's not ready yet... it's ok if you don't credit. I am a bit anal about my github code. I am a perfectionist when it comes to coding and such...
[HTC Sensation] ziggimon:
Have you tried setting CPU speed with a OC app? That stopped the overheating of my phone.
[HTC Sensation] thommy5583:
Hey, thx for ur work... how can I go back to default kernel??
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Flash it. There is one in the InsertCoin post, addons section.
[HTC Sensation] lonewolf083:
the speed is ok 1536 - 192 but is overheating

and drop battery fast , very fast ,

with stock or v0.7 is ok
[HTC Sensation] skedone:
can confirm that too phone locks up like never before and gets bloody hot mate thats with or without cpu gov and after fresh install 0.7 seems okay
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
try removing all oc apps, -ALL-, shutting down, remove your battery for a few seconds, reinsert + boot to recovery, clear /cache and boot the ROM.

Getting no overheating problems here with my Sensation. (And I run both cores @ 1782 Mhz, and GPU OC @ 320Mhz)

The only time I thought I got a heater in my hands was when I played cordy on my big 47" LG-TV via MHL-HDMI. It was pretty damn hot, but MHL-HDMI even lets stock heat up like an oven.
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
got a problem with the htc twitter widget, when i scroll through the last posts the phone freezes for some time (about 30 secs), doesn't react at all. after some time it works again, but not very well. switched back to 0.7 as i don't play any 3d games anyway. but i often use the twitter widget ;)

another problem which occures with 0.7 (i don't know if with 0.8 also) is, that sometimes my phone doesn't switch into lock mode when i press power button. i have to press it a second time, then it's ok. it's not such a big problem, but maybe you can do something about this (it is not the problem that the screen switches off and instantly back on, i read that somewhere, that it's htc related, it doesn't switch off at all, but just particularly...)
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Already known, same issue as the HTC News widget glitch.

*working on it*

PS: The issuetracker would have been more appropriate ;) Makes it easier to track those things.
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
ok, next time @ issuetracker ;)

Trade it for a third *****?
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
That's not possible in Europe =(((
[HTC Sensation] Marreboy:
Thanks for super job on the kernel. You have almost got it perfect. Cordy works fine. Nova 2 crashes after 30 seconds.

But, Overall I think your kernels are the best.

Keep it up! ;)

Thanks. I'll try it out.
[HTC Sensation] LINKSLOVESANDROID:
whatchu mean bro? camels = vehicular trnasportation lol
[HTC Sensation] Hoggles:
Been using the Bricked kernels since day one. Most have been improvements.

Though there is a very real jittery lag with the UI with 0.8. I know others have mentioned it as well. Had to go back to 0.7 and all is now smooth again.

I tried it on IC 2.3.1 / IC 2.2.5 SSE / IC XE Final. All of them lag bigtime with 0.8.

One question about the front page title in the thread. It says its the first 2.3.4 kernel with fixed gaming?? Didn't HTC already fix that with the release of the Beats XE edition. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that is a 2.3.4 based kernel and gaming (Cordy) and the UI are working perfect....and that came out well before 0.8. Correct?

Maybe change the title to first "custom" kernel. HTC already figured it out.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Then don't release stuffz until it is finished =/

Well not my decision ;)

I have credited you in the git commit message for a kind of confirmation-patch, I think that is fair :p
[HTC Sensation] Byrana:
So, everthing is fine until 65 degrees, if I read that config right?
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
yes. which is only 10°C above stock thermald.conf iirc.

You may want to look at other kernlels thermald.conf files, you will see that my values are quite low compared to them ;)
[HTC Sensation] lampshade90:
got a strange bug is it kernel or rom related?

my WLAN is set to never be on at standby, but if i wake up the phone it doesnt search for new attache points, it always says no wlan point in range. so it doesnt connect with the router although wlan is on :/
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Rom? Kernel version?

Logs?

Wifi configuration? (that of the ap ofc)

~Signal strength?
[HTC Sensation] lampshade90:
ARHD 6.5.2 bricked 3.0 v0.3

strength 2 metres away from the router ;)

dont know what kind of logs

and i dont know since when the bug is, since the kernel or ICS.... never changed the setting of the ap and with GB i never had problems
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Sounds like you do not have 3.32 firmware, had something like that with a neighbors router.

Btw: v0.4 @ op ;)

Yes, multitouch fixed :p
[HTC Sensation] lampshade90:
i have firmware 3.32! will download 0.4, dont know why the phone doesnt search for new ap although wlan is on :( so phone display is on wlan on -> standby wlan should go off (it goes off) -> phone display is on again wlan should connect again (it doesnt connect again)

:( nunja isnt the worst bug ;)
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
I am not even convinced it is a bug in the kernel. ;)
[HTC Sensation] lampshade90:
me 2 but you are my personal hero, so you can fix every issue i have :-D thanks for v0.4 i love your kernels :)
[HTC Sensation] erto90:
Do you suggest to use setcpu, maybe for standby profile and freq control, or kernel do it better? ( aka apps can interfere to kernel )

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] iba21:
750mV!! Sbav!!
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
===> Flashing now !!!!!

:D
[HTC Sensation] Bluewall:
Have you changed something about the voltage ? When i was UVolting with system tuner, 192Mhz stays at 800 at -75mv, now, with onyl -50mv 192Mhz is already at 765 lol
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Yes I changed the min voltage, but I am not quite sure what you want to tell me ;)
[HTC Sensation] Bluewall:
Well, hard to explain but the lower voltage i could have was 800mv on 192Mhz for exemple, even after hitting 6 times the "-12.5mv" in system tuner.

Now, with this way i can reach less than 800mv :)

Btw, second core always go to 1.5Ghz sometimes even if underclocked at 1.18Ghz or less.

Don't know why, this problem seems to be in every kernel lol
[HTC Sensation] lightninbug:
Are we able to see CPU times in apps like CPU spy now?
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Yeah, I said I lowered it ;)

It's mpdecisions fault.

yes
[HTC Sensation] Bluewall:
Well, can you explain what it means ? In basic words ? interessted in this issue since many times now :p

Otherwise, running really great on Sense 4.0 ;)
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
I explained this 3 times on the last 10 pages. sry. not again.
[HTC Sensation] Catpoule:
@show,

i'm not sur i got it all ... may you confirm please what i understood ...

on my sutem tuner pro :

i see :

CPU 0 : climbing frome 192 to 1.13ghz then from time to times up to 1.56ghz

then i get

CPU 1 : offline.

i stayed about 4 mn observing cpu ,how they manage but cpu 1 never climb.

Can you confirm that this CPU1 only runs if needed in case some apps requires it ? that means that if i do not work on the phone ,it will stay offline but if i do things that demands power it will come on and turn like CPU 0 ??
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Yes ofc... that is the way it always has been and how our soc is supposed to work.
[HTC Sensation] shiningarmor:
mp_decision revs the second core to the max as if there's no stepping at all. it's either min or max. that's about it. very simply explained =)
[HTC Sensation] q9650:
Hex show,

As far as i remember, this kernel is undervolted, right? Unfortunately on arhd there is no init.d for it. So i undervolted the kernel via system tuner and let System tuner do a init.d file. Now take a look at the battery when i lowered the voltages. From the moment i did it, the line goes straight. Before it was just going down like hell. Its amazing! Correct me if im wrong with the undervolted thing.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
It is undervolted in the mid range frequencies, yes.

I had to reverse my more aggressive undervolting of the low frequencies because some XE's had problems with it. So it's up to you how far you would like to go with uv ;)
[HTC Sensation] q9650:
What a potty, i was loving your undervoltings :D im still on 31 % for more then 15 min with screen on. Dafuq? XD Good old bricked days comming back <3
[HTC Sensation] Bluewall:
Just wanted to leave a feedback, something seems to be weird, but i'm not a dev so i don't really know.

When i look at CPU spy, it seems that the CPU goes to deep sleep when screen off (that's the good part).

But in use, it's ONLY the high frequence that is used, is it normal ?
[HTC Sensation] q9650:
Maybe the app has low Update rate. Check it with system tuner ;)
[HTC Sensation] Bluewall:
yes, maybe you're right. Will look more into it. Or maybe it's because i'm on Sense 4 :p
[HTC Sensation] q9650:
just FYI. i would say: primestable :p
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
why did you force max freq? =/
[HTC Sensation] marvelspires:
This a show that kernel, very good, much improved from 0.2 to 0.4, my compliments, so I will continue to have to make a donation
[HTC Sensation] invisiblebm:
Great kernel. Best for sense 4.0 .
[HTC Sensation] gururise:
Thanks Show-p for the great kernel! I was hoping it would boost the speed of certain apps, but DOOM timedemo showed no difference between 1.5ghz stock kernel and v0.4

But... subjectively I can feel that the preemptible kernel is working, as the gui is smoother. I just wish that the optimizations would somehow translate to a faster gaming experience. Great work regardless!
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Vorbeth has a fix afaik, I will pull his changes and merge them with my repo soon (new branch), then there will be an aosp kernel as well ;)

Coming.

I am not yet finished with cpu opting.

gpu is next ;)
[HTC Sensation] HunnyBearLewis:
I am definitely liking this kernel, great work...however I still have multi touch issues with losing input 1 when input 2 is released. I'm on v4 with Inquisition 4.0.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Inquisition users seem to have this problem.

Since this is rom dependent, and nobody has shown me anything that disproves that statement, I will just classify that as Not-A-Kernel-Issue :p
[HTC Sensation] HunnyBearLewis:
Lol darn. Well it did work for me with sebastians latest...I do apologize if its rude to compare other threads.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
He has not yet put up all of his source (it seems to drop only one commit every few days :p), so I don't know what he did to fix it.
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
Ah... yes.. I just tested for this case, it seemed that once 2nd finger is released, once in a while, the first finger is briefly unregistered before it is re-acquired by the driver. I need to look into this further...
[HTC Sensation] easyguy:
What type of a BT fix are we talking about? I was using mike ics rom and hadbissues of drops bt signal. I reverted back to gingerbread rom and its stable again.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
I am just sniffing through the code. (can't test, I am onmy touchpad ^^)

Could it be that there is

input_sync(ts->input_dev);

a missing @ line 810?
[HTC Sensation] DANOFDANGER:
cool man would really like it, his rom uses stock kernel and to me holds really bad battery life so your kernel would help a ton
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
I uploaded complete source code yesterday as I promised. My multi-touch contains fix for Virtuos Inquisition 4.0.
[HTC Sensation] baste07:
Im on arhd, so this problem does not happen in that rom?
[HTC Sensation] faux123:
I haven't looked at it since this morning... I am still @ work (it's been a long day for me... it's nearly 11 PM here). I will look at this when I have energy...
[HTC Sensation] q9650:
To test if the phone can handle this voltage at max freq. I also did a scaling stability test to Test each of the freqs with their voltages :)

OT: nice to see devs working together. Do you guys ever sleep? :P
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Actually, no.

BTW: I figured out a way to trick mpdecision & thermald to reset our cpu1 back to default instead of putting it to max. But that's it with progress for now :P (still better than ramping it to max in my oppinion ;)

good night :)
[HTC Sensation] q9650:
Then how should i test the stability of the voltages i set. One way could be to set them down until phone freezes xD
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
My "no" was the answer to your question if I ever sleep ;)

And yeah, that is the right way to test that.

I just misunderstood your post, I though you wanted to say that it is not scaling :)
[HTC Sensation] seandk:
I don't know if I'm alone in this case, but compared to the previous version, battery life is terrible
