Must we do something to activate zRam ? Just installed v0.3 blazing fast showp ! thanks :D
[HTC Sensation] KennyDumah:
Yep saw it too now.

Sadly. :/

Really hope this will be on our pyramid very soon. :)

Would be so cool. :D
[HTC Sensation] lampshade90:
is there a higher battery drain because of this? The softkeys are always on and wait for touching them?

(er da oben hats ja auch auf deutsch geschrieben -.- Erhöht sich dadurch nicht der Akkuverbrauch weil die Tasten halt immer an sind und auf Berührung warten? sry soll auch nicht gewohnheit werden, aber wollt sicher gehen dass du verstehst was ich meine xD)
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Nope, it should activate itself.

Check with

should look like this:

Nope, the touchscreen is a device, and devices send interrupts. The mod should be asleep until the IRQ is triggered (at least I would expect it to be programmed that way). But it's pointless to discuss without source either way.
[HTC Sensation] V1ViD:
Flashed with OpenSensation. Seems to be running fine.
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
what are the advantages of zram please ?

more ram or something else ? faster app loading or something ?
[HTC Sensation] KennyDumah:
Nein steht auch dazu.

Aber leider ist dieser Mod noch nicht verfügbar. Weil Die Source noch nicht draußen ist.

Hoffen wir das da noch was kommt...

No, but it was already stated in his post.

But sadly this mod isn't available yet, because source isn't released yet.

Let's hope that anything will come up to our phones soon...

Edit: show-p you was faster :DDDD
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Usually if your phone runs low on ram it will just end an app, freeing the space in ram. If the app then restarts it needs to begin from zero.

With ZRAM the data that app has put in RAM is not nuked into oblivion but compressed and placed into ZRAM. If the app now needs to be recovered (you open it or whatever), the system can restore it's stuff from ZRAM and let the app continue it's work instead of starting from zero. (non technical explanation, I suspect that's what you wanted)

This results in faster app opening from previously opened apps, more background apps at the same time, etc etc etc...

If your phone kills apps very often, this also results in a better battery life, because all those apps don't have to start from scratch every time they start again and therefore they do not waste cpu cycles.
[HTC Sensation] Bluewall:
Hey Showp, testing like hell the new version :D

Seems that the CPU don't want to go to 192Mhz when phone is not used, like it was on V0.2

Not sure about it, will try more :P

EDIT: nevermind, my phone was just crazy for the last 15 minutes idk why lol, it's okay now :p

Just want to know, where do you learnt all this stuff about kernel ? It's not like making a ROM or just using 7-zip, you know some real technical stuffs.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Well First of all school. PFFF! HAHAHA! Sorry I spit my water over my display :D

Internet. Internet. Internet.

Nothing else. Of course you need to be interested in this stuff.

My first Computer (not a PC but a Commodore 64) I got with the age of 6 ;)

I guess I am lucky to grew up with some older stuff (low level, hardware near technology), that makes things a lot easier.

If someone starts to learn now they got to learn all that ****, which I picked up along the way :p

By the way: Offtopic.

Hello,

I just wanted to say that this kernel is the first which improved my 720/1080p high bitrate playback on ICS rom. It's not perfect as on gingerbread but framerate slightly improved and it's watchable now. So... It is really kernel related I think. I'm using ARHD 6.5.1. Keep working mate, your developing speed is blazing fast, hope that HD playback will be 100% resolved : )

there is an app for the slide to wake

it requires the following defconfig switches to work on the 3d: (and it works great)

the app states its only for the 3d, but since the kernels are sooo close, maybe it will work

CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS=y
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Kernel modules are bound by magic version. That won't work. Ofc you are welcome to pull and compile my kernel, install that, curse a round and then ome back here and tell me that I am right :p :D
[HTC Sensation] kittykat858:
i know ur right - and its not a module

its a APK on google market :)

per the dev - run a kernel with the defconfig switches i posted above enabled

then install the apk

and ur good to go

(on the 3d)

maybe the link above is a different slide-2-wake mod - let me find the thread w/ the APK when i get home - im on my phone now

Idle batt drain with wifi and sync overnight is a way bigger than on Sebastian kernel, when I turned wifi off its perfect. With wifi my batt drained 25 percent in 6 hours..., with sebatians kernel I was able to have wifi on all night with 6-8 percent drain.

[HTC Sensation] runderekrun:
Tried searching but couldn't find an answer:

Does this kernel fix the multi touch problem found in the stock kernel?
[HTC Sensation] finsilva:
ZRam

This might be a noob question, but I was just wondering if ZRam is active by default. The reason I ask is because I was reading the OP for Sebastien's kernel and it gave the instructions on how to enable, but I wasn't sure where to go to input the commands.
[HTC Sensation] Byrana:
It is enabled by default.
[HTC Sensation] bruce2728:
Open showp's zip and have a look
[HTC Sensation] elgubbo:
see attachment...

after almost 3 hours it finally went down to 98% :)

this is with syncing enabled!
[HTC Sensation] iba21:
with a right configuration you can force about 30-40mA in standby, as like, 400mAh in 10 hours, 1500/400 = 3,75 .. 3,75 * 10 = 37 hours and half of pure standby with 3G able..

if you want to know how to, you have to ways

1) use system tuner, in cpu you could see boot setting, chose screen off behavior, governor, and select conservative, than go back, select max frequency, and set to 540mhz.. now, go back, and on re-apply cpu setting, select init.d script

2) create manually the script and put it in init.d folder
[HTC Sensation] anko184:
Hi show-p just a quick question, will a script like the attached work with your kernel?
[HTC Sensation] eden1988:
Pardon me for asking this, but I've read before that kernel actually affects the battery % shown on our notification bar, is that true?

Btw it might be the wrong place to ask in, my charging gets very slow (100mA) when it reaches 70% and all the way up, but it went up to 100% after I rebooted my phone, why is it happening? Thanks once again!!
[HTC Sensation] mputaturo:
I have better results using Sebastian latest kernel with same cpu speed.
[HTC Sensation] Byrana:
there's a bug with the displaying battery percentage. It is not going down gradually. It stays on some percentage for minutes and then drops 4 to 5 percent. This was not the case with stock kernel.

As an example I was using Google maps for 30 minutes while driving. It showed 40% left for like 10 minutes and then dropped to 36%.

Kinda irritation
[HTC Sensation] eden1988:
So which one is the correct battery %? The 70% before reboot or the 100% after reboot?

Note: Charging caps at 100mA limit when it reaches 70-75%, dunno why :(

I just wish I could charge faster, 100mA from 70% is way too SLOW!!!
[HTC Sensation] LittleH79:
It is "normal" for the battery(stats) to be off when installing new stuff.

Just let it settle for at least a couple of days without changes and you'll see it corrects itself :)
[HTC Sensation] runderekrun:

#1st post.

On it.

What weird graphics? screenshot? Better explanation?

There is no wifi problem here. Try to eliminate 3rd party failures.

Long story, cut short:

I had a channel in irc, #bricked. As usual I was too lazy to create a new one. So when I released my kernel, Bricked was born. :p

Done.

Done.

Quick flyby, yes.

No it is not. Battery % is read out from the battery and hand over as is to the rom. There is no processing done.

I am not building benchmark kernels here. I build kernels which favor your user interface over any other action, so you get the best possible experience. Also I focus on saving battery and stability more than 5% more performance in benchmarks =/

Synthetic Benchmarks suck in real life.

The one you can read out from the kernel userspace interface.

There are several possible reasons why your phone is charging slower.

In your case it is to protect your battery's health. Faster charging = bad for the battery. So it slows down when it gets to 70% and it slows down again when it gets to 90/95% iirc.

Yes, the multitouch bug is still there. Sebastian hasn't answered my pm nor did he put up his source yet. And I don't intend to reinvent the wheel.

I could but the second core would jump to max after it is put to sleep and re-woken by mpdecision. Faux claims he has a fix, but I did not test it nor has he put up source, too.

Both.

This is not an aosp kernel.

[HTC Sensation] runderekrun:

[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
i know that ;)

thats why sebastian makes so many different kernels of one version ;)

if you would do that too nobody would care about that problem.

if you were releasing 1,6 ghz kernel two cores with max 1,6 ghz

the same for all other frequenzies

just that simple, and everyone could chose their own max clock with kernel

?_?

Websites do not work horizontally? That works fine for me. Which rom? sense 3.6 / sense 4?

The new mpdecision disables itself if something hotplugs CPU1 outside mpdecision until you disable CPU1 again. This leads to various problems with OC apps. For example: SetCPU wakes up CPU1 but does not put it asleep again. This will result in a always running cpu1, which decreases battery life and increases heat.

Check that.

Also check for apps that consume way more cpu power than they should.

2 possibilities.

Busybox is missing. (install busybox :p)

init.d scripts are not executed on startup. (fix it in the boot.img, init.something...)

In both cases it's your rom chef that screwed up :cool:

Gimme a logcat from bootup and I will know ;)
