[HTC Sensation] V6-Maniac:
@ Show

Just a little report for v1.6 beta1.

Last 33hours went great and the batt time looks good.

At the moment of writing this post i still have 18% left after almost 34hours of normal usage in my opinion.

Kernel was running stock clockspeed.

Had to charge the phone but i think 40+ hours is capable with my kind off usage.

Usage last 34 hours:

3 gmail accounts (Lots of in coming mail)

2 twitter account (15min auto sync)

Weather (3hours sync)

Dutch Social network (Push notifications)

Auto check in app for 4sq

20min playing NFS

Whatsapp

KPN Mobile Data counter app

Some GPS tests

Not much but about 11min off phone calls

Wordfeud (Playing all day with 6 different users)

Till now i didn't came up to any issues.

No wake up problems or wake up at receiving phone calls.

Youtube plays well and no issues.

Memory management seems to work flawless as well continuously aprox 180mb of free ram.

p.s

The black gaps in the phone signal is caused due my work location.

It's just like a large concrete box so i have to disable the phone network in order to stop the drain.

The phone start to continuously look for any network connection causing a massive batt drain.
[HTC Sensation] sirbilbo:
I can only agree to all other who say the battery time is outstanding, and the phone is now perfect, no lag etc.

Thank you show-p1984 for all your hard work to make us user happy !
[HTC Sensation] snowblindd:
The restarts you are facing are most likely due to ram memory management - try this, using system monitor set up ram management - autokill at aggressive before starting a game - i bet it will fix this on ARHD which uses tweaks to keep sense in memory all the time - or use a kernel with zram enabled ( 1.5)
[HTC Sensation] the_real_fosgate:
Hi show,

I flashed your kernel yesterday on Mike´s 4.1.7

Your kernel is fast and batterylife is great (special in standby), but my "batteryjumps" are back with your kernel.

I had the same problems with faux kernel till 025b7.

After the release of 025b8 and the "final" 025r the problem was gone.

I want to give you an example:

I was 10 hours on battery (78%), after a reboot, my sensation shows 46% :-(

One benchmark and another reboot later it shows 15%.

On this 15% the phone stay for the next 12 hours!!

I would be very happy if can take a look at this.

Thank you for your impressive work!

After the Show-P guy told me to try this 1.6b v1 kernel because he's been getting great feedback of how it works with 3.5 sense roms,ive only had 1 problem & i figured out what happened & it was caused by me & easily fixed,not fixed just given more patience. I think alot of supernoobs not that there's nothing wrong with noobs cause im sure according to my status thats all im considered,but the 1"s that want everything to work right away & reply complaining thinking certain meaningful apps & functions don't work right away,probably do what i ignorantly did when I tested the functions immediately with known bugs. After my complete install of my zips & ril,i flashed 1.6 then the 1.4 camfix & went to the camera right away & took a picture & the screen froze when clicking to view the picture. It made me have to pull the battery but after a couple minutes of thought i realized that i probably didn't let the kernel load enough the first time it actually loads besides just quickly going into power & turning off fastboot. So i just went back into the camera cause the phone had already been restarted and recorded a bunch of a 3-5mn long 1080p videos, took about 20 8mp pics clicking back n forth to view them,and sent 10 mms messages to myself and my wife to make sure the mms sent large enough files.I also sent a whole bunch of large phrases i repeatedly copy & pasted to send a huge amount of txt with the pictures & when sent with a huge txt the picture either sent blurry or super thumbnail size small.But whose gonna send a text the size of this reply to describe a pic :D. But i can say for myself im using the Sense-o-Maniac Sense 3.5 rom,newest version,& Bricked 1.6 Beta 1 kernel & the phone has ran perfect since the camera getting stuck.I even tried with taking the pictures different times all day & it worked everytime and refused to fail.I greatly thank you for helping me finally have a reason to flash a rom & not just keep it stock to stay away from all the bugs in the rooted roms not working with the kernels. And no im not just some kiss a@% to these people making this huge reply dropping names & names of programs,i juts wanted to thank this guy for this cause not many roms were stable since this kernels been flashed with them. And i also wanted to have this up for a bunch of people who might have the same problem with the camera or big mms txt before they complain about it & realize they just overdid it before giving the kernel time to set itself in,as i dis when i 1st tested using it wit the rom im on. You can do alot just dont go overboard right away cause you'll think the kernel dont work and wont stick with the best kernel so far that just needs a little bit to set in as any other kernel.

Have you tried this patch?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1331556

I have applied it to my phone and the battery reading is a little more accurate. I'd give it a few cycles to let it settle though ;)
[HTC Sensation] the_real_fosgate:
Yes, I tried this patch. But it doesn´t work for me :-(

The Problem was gone with faux "025r", but I want to stay with bricked ;-)

for the love of GOD, restore the thermal.conf, your cpu has no temp protection...

you can burn your cpu !!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] doctorlirio:
You should never, under any circumstances, never miss a shower with your girlfriend!!!! :D

I tried something else, Faux published a modified thermald.conf flashable from recovery for his kernel, so i used that with bricked v0.6 and IC 2.5.1-2 and now everything is fine, no issues so far. Let's hope the problem is in that file and... let's hope baad can run fast or we'll be out of new updates for IC when you grab him!!! :p
[HTC Sensation] VinceValentin:
Like many others I got the constant reboot with the original 0.6, but the hotfix edition has worked for some hours without problems :) And I have to say: HOT DAMN DUDES, IT FLIES!!! :D (on 2.5.1) Copperfield might impose for a magician, but you sirs really are a couple of wizards! My greatest gratitude for making this phone the sensation HTC couldn't do on their own. Keep it up guys :)
[HTC Sensation] blitzkriegh:
i'm in 2.5.1 and 0.6 and no reboots so far.
[HTC Sensation] marcos600rr:
Im in IC 2.5.1 and v0.6 hot fix and im not experiensing boots problems but my celphone is smelling like the board is going to be cooked or melting or something like that now
[HTC Sensation] umd:
I know that dude but it's working @1536 mhz. If it was @1782+ I would understand. It's the native speed of this CPU.
[HTC Sensation] Twister988:
2.2.5 SSE with 0.6 - no sudden reboots, no unexpected behaviour. Just works like a charm.

Overclocking-limit for my device is 1,72GHz @ 1350mV. I didn´t try 1,78 with 0.6, but i think if it doesn´t run on 0.5 with 1350mV, it won´t run on 0.6 either. ;)

As some posters said before:

Never miss a shower with your girlfriend, show-p1984 !!!
[HTC Sensation] Martovitz:
Will this work with CM7?

Remember to give THANKS were THANKS is due.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Reboots are caused by HTC's thermald.conf. Which baadnewz included as default in his XE roms. Flash the attached one or wait for 0.7. It will include a thermald.conf.

Thanks: doctorlirio, Figure_desire
[HTC Sensation] 3c:
I've recently moved to Lee's ROM+Kernel, and the thermals are now managed by the kernel, no more thermald!

So, any chance of getting the following in the next kernel:

- Integrated thermal management

- CPU temperature in sysfs (value is obviously available, so it's not so complex)

- Standard UV table, including default values as with all other implementations?

EDIT: would be nice.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
I didn't let it be unheard the first time, and I won't do it now. Sorry but I have relative much to do at the moment. Additionally to this branch, I am fixing the 3d on another branch. Then I have 2 other projects running which are completely isolated from Android and I have a reallife.

Those things you mentioned were on my todo list for 0.7 which will be now 0.8 due to the reboot stuff.

I was and always will take wishes seriously (which you can see by the implementation of the callrec stuff). But if you want to track your wishes, why don't just post them in the issue tracker as a feature request. That would it make a lot easier.

BTW: System Tuner is giving me some strange outputs sometimes. When I try to change CPU clocks from cpu1 it says that i need a rooted phone. And when i then try to change cpu0 it does that too. Completely random, haven't got thew time to make logs or look into it either. Just wanted to tell you that ;)
[HTC Sensation] RiNo808:
0.6 is working like a charm on coredroid 2.4, so far no reboots as of 10 hours....

Sent via Sensation Z710a AT&T
[HTC Sensation] 3c:
Ok, sorry badly asked for it (got to work on that), I know you're very busy as I am too... a little reminder as I'm sure it's far less complex than the 3D fixing and the others things you're working on.

I wish I could help too, but I don't even have the environment to build and test kernels.

EDIT: Actually when I noticed you were online, I had to urgently post something before 20 new pages were written and you wouldn't notice my post :D

Will check it on v0.6 now. note that ST changes frequencies for all CPUs at the same time, but will display this confusing message if it finds out the new frequency was not applied or the init.d script couldn't be updated (when boot-scripts is enabled).

So it's not a root/su issue in the first place. Need to make it less confusing. Still I wonder why it happens in the first place, hope I can reproduce it.

Thanks for your time, looking forward to run v0.8! :D

termald.conf

@show-p: short question:

Compared to an former thermald.conf (IC 2.4.2 Stock Kernel) I can see no "shutdown" setting anymore (at 95 degree ?). Isn't it needed anymore ? No meltdown risk ?
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Currently in the testing of 0.7 with that fixed Thermald stuff.

If you want to test it, here it is. (it's basically 0.6 with a fixed thermald.conf and some cleanups)

https://code.google.com/p/bricked/d...MPT-ondemand-1536-192.show-p1984.zip&can=2&q=

If this proves stable, it will be the announced in the #1 post.
[HTC Sensation] Z3R0-CooL:
I am testing it. stable up to 1.78 for me. any more i get boot loops.
[HTC Sensation] show-p1984:
Limit for your device ;) BTW you should not check "set at boot" in your oc app when you are testing new clocks :D That will prevent bootloops xD
[HTC Sensation] 3c:
Except using System Tuner which implements a boot-loop protection! :D If at next boot it reboots after applying CPU settings, those settings will not be applied again and a popup will inform the user of that!

It seems many Sensation have a 1.72GHz limit, instead of 1.78Ghz, where as few users can go up-to 1.9xGhz somehow!
[HTC Sensation] Z3R0-CooL:
yes ;) i figured that one out the hardddd way lol

This fix doesn't work on the sensation, check back a few pages, the binary doesn't even run so it can't do anything, it's just the placebo effect lol.
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Thanks for your help, i will def give it a try. But you know, the weird thing is that i have installed the v. 0.91 and i have zero issues playing games and that kernel doesnt have zram enabled and i dont have good experiences with zram either. Hopefully this get fixed for final version of 1.6 i love that version
[HTC Sensation] arachnid1970:
After i'd installed 1.6b1 my cam-issue is fixed, thank you show (wrote a few posts before)... Mms video recording is working now
[HTC Sensation] mat9v:
1.6 beta does not have zram enabled either so it can't be a problem. I suppose overheating may be a problem, as temp rises stability at a given frequency falls, maybe default voltages for 0.9.1 and 1.6 beta differ? What version of 0.9.1 are u using? The 320Mhz one or the default? If I remember the new kernel has a higher max GPU frequency, this may be a problem (I am not certain of that, Show-p, please confirm?).
[HTC Sensation] snowblindd:
Android OS kills apps when there is a low level of free ram ( this can be tweaked to be triggered at higher values or at lower values). Sense is one of the apps that is frequently killed ( redrawing alot on stock rom and kernel ) but ARHD has a tweak that keeps Sense in memory all the time ( thus no FC and no redraws). BUT while playing 3d games the ram goes down fast, android tries to kill sense which is ,,stuck,, in the memory which can result to a restart. It can be fixed by zram, which gives extra ram, or setting up the autokill levels.

I had the same issues on non-zram kernels and ARHD. Games work well on 1.6 and not a single restart so far. That.s what i meant in the first post
[HTC Sensation] mat9v:
Autokill @ aggressive will result in the same error, since Sense can't be killed. Do you mean, you want to kill everything beside Sense? It's never good to have aggressive killer as it only increase CPU usage, if we have low memory situation the system will kill apps anyway, if memory is really low and the game require so much memory that Sense is a problem we can't do anything about it anyway because it's locked in memory. Zram in that situation is worse because it "Always" take a certain amount of memory, it can't be killed even if it's completely empty so it would help only if the whole Android system went there and freed the rest of memory (If I understand correctly that is impossible).

I suppose he could flash ARHD no sense script and try another home app to check if this is a memory problem.....
[HTC Sensation] snowblindd:
I.ll pm you, meanwhile he can try both methods and see what works for him. I am using ARHD 3.6.7 with bricked 1.6b1 and 3d games did not cause any restart so far
[HTC Sensation] drms12:
Just post your last_kmsg after the restart happend.

You'll know exactly what's the reason for the restart.
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
I already discard overheating playing in front of a fan so i think that's not the root of the problem. I'm using the "normal" version of 0.91 btw. Could this possibly be related to cpu speed? i mean, if i downclock to 1.2 i'll help to prevent reboots?

---------- Post added at 11:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:20 AM ----------

Could you please give me a hand with this? i don't know how to do it and that's the best way to look for a solution, i've read once "no log, no issue"

Thanks

---------- Post added at 11:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 AM ----------

Are you using the "agressive autokill" method? or isn't necessary for you ... cause i'm thinking about downclockingto 1.2GHz and see what happens, could be cpu speed related
[HTC Sensation] drms12:
Don't do anything about memory and task killer. First wipe cache and davlik, then flash 1.6 xe beta1 again. Now, play the games cause the issue. If it happen again, use root explorer\es file explorer they both let you browse to your phone root. Then go to proc folder. Then copy last_kmsg file to your sd card. Connect you phone to the computer and upload the content of the file to http://pastebin.com

Not sure if it's a kernel bug, but I just received a call and I was unable to answer because the screen didn't recognized my touch. I had to press power button to turn off the screen and then I did it again to turn it on and this time the touchscreen worked. Any suggestions?

I'm using Bricked Kernel v1.6b1 and MIUI 1.1.18 :(

EDIT: I noticed it doesn't work while vibrating. When I press the power button to stop it ringing (and vibrating) then the screen works properly. Never had this problem with the stock Kernel/ROM!

Any suggestions?

Good evening,

as I know, the Amaze Cam just workes with the fix. And according to that, the Geotagg must be turned off.

In my last tests, the Sensa freezes with a black Screen even if the GPS is turned on in the background. (The Icon is not shown, just the checkbox is set)

Isn´t it possible to fix that somehow, too? :)

If you minimum frequency for screen off and screen on (set with o/c Daemon, faux clock or something else) is 192mhz, set it to 384mhz, it kinda solved the problem for me.

If you're already at 384mhz...well...wait to see if the wizzard Show-p can find a global definitive solution to it
[HTC Sensation] xazac:
I don't use any CPU governor, I just left it as the developer did. Which App should I use? Thanks!

EDIT: I installed CPU Tuner and I've set up 384mhz, but I still have trouble specially if I turn the screen off and then I turn it on again (touchscreen doesn't work at all)..

Bug or Issue Report

Running 1.6b1 + ARHD 3.6.7

Have similar problem, and also having couple other issues:

1) Power button working strangely: does not respond well to quick turn on/turn off. Lags heavily to turn on

only when recently turned off, like if within a span of 3 seconds

. (worthy to note this is a new issue after flashing to 1.6b1; did not occur with default kernel of ARHD)

2) Lagging when playing music: Music playing in the background slows everything in the UI down significantly; ie. stutter, lag switching through windows. Very laggy when turning on screen with music playing; touchscreen unresponsive to unlock when music playing. Everything is slow/lag with music playing

3) Random stutters/pauses in UI

My minimum freq IS at 192, but again, worthy to note the above does not happen with ARHD default kernel with 192 minimum freq.

I will not change minimum wake and sleep freq to 384 because to my understanding, that consumes more battery, and battery is my highest priority.

Bricked always wins

hey show/bricked users

id like to start off by saying thank you of course, for the brilliant kernels you obviously know what your doing. i use yours over anyone elses everytime.

performance, battery and stability exceed expectations for at least my usage

i recently downloaded a new 3d gamecalled blood and glory from the market. it seems to drain the battery at about 25% an hour. thats pretty good for running a game. but its the only game that drains me. i can be listening to music and on wifi surfing and only lose 5 % an hour.

im shareing this experienced to hopefully push some of your focus on 3D gaming even moree that you already have been.

If im the only person experiencing this on (signature) please disregard this post.

Again THANKS SHOW

As others already told you ironically: High usage drains your battery. Same as with your car, if you drive in the last 30% of it's max velocity you will burn fuel like hell. There is not much I can do about that. Some games are using very much computing power, either because they are so ****ing nice, or because they are very badly programmed.
