I wish faux would be my bff too! :(

For anyone running version 12 or 13, if you have issues with screen staying black after phone call, you have to change the lines that say 192000 to 384000 in the file called init.qcom.post_boot.sh(in /system/etc) under the lines for msm8660, about 1/3 down the text document. Or just set the minimum speed to 384mhz via a CPU app.

My camera doesn't work now on the v12 kernel. Reverted back to an older one

Sent from my Energized HTC Amaze!
[HTC Amaze 4G] blast0id:
v13 is available... #justsayin
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
Not sure that the kernel should have any effect on the camera.. pretty sure it shouldn't. You may want to give it another try.

I still don't see the changelog for 13, I ran it all day yesterday and had significantly reduced battery life even after modifying the init.qcom.post_boot.sh file.. flashed 12 again today, and battery went back to being exceptional.. no way to know what made so big a difference without a changelog.

Edit:

I stand corrected.. but unless the kernel update is the cause, I'm not sure how the I/O scheduler would effect battery negatively.. I did see some edits in the init.qcom.post_boot.sh since v12, and I'm wondering if I missed one that made a big difference.
[HTC Amaze 4G] jordin1128:
On V13 in the init.qcom file, there are lines commented out to stop mpdecision and thermald. Any benefits if we remove the comments?

If mpdecision is stopped, wouldn't both cores be online?
[HTC Amaze 4G] fcpelayo:
I think so, that's why it is still there but requesting perflock for CPU1 at the same time. So that it be able to go offline no?
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
I don't want to drive faux crazy, but since he is using the amaze as his daily driver, I wonder if he(or anyone else) noticed extra drain on v13.. I flashed it again, drained quicker while not being used, flashed 12, back to better battery - two times, same results.

I am loving how well he is keeping it updated, his kernels always performed better than the kernels I've tried on other devices, so I can't and wont complain.
[HTC Amaze 4G] faux123:
Each subsequent builds so far has drained less and less :cool:
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
Did you make any changes that would alter how it looks for signal? The draining problem was only noticeable for me when I'm at home where I have weak or total signal loss..

And not sure if you saw previous posts, but lowering the minimum clock speed to 192 in the init.qcom.post_boot.sh can cause issues with the screen coming on after phone calls. Not everyone has the issue, but enough you may want to change it to the stock 384mhz.

And any statements about the two posts before my last one asking about the commented out lines that disable mpdecision and thermald?
[HTC Amaze 4G] faux123:
kernel HAS no control over RADIO FULL STOP.

mpdecision and thermald are UNTOUCHED FULL STOP.

Minimum is at 384 MHz FULL STOP.

Thanks for the great work faux. One question, a lot of people have BT connectivity and range issue after the ICS update. It was way better in the original GB Rom. I am using ARHD and flashed your kernel but same thing...is it possible to address this issue?

Thanks
[HTC Amaze 4G] faux123:
Yes and No....

First go HATE on HTC... they didn't release BT and WiFi source for ICS... so we are SCREWED by HTC in the first place.

The AOSP drivers worked MUCH MUCH better than the stock HTC drivers in terms of range/static etc... BUT unfortunately, AOSP driver does NOT work 100% with HTC stock ROM.

AOSP BT: Cannot pair with NEW BT devices, already paired devices will work perfectly (even auto reconnect EVERY TIME)

AOSP WiFi: Cannot add NEW Access Points. Scan is flaky.. Existing AP work pretty well....

[HTC Amaze 4G] faux123:
yes you should have OTG working if CM9/CM10 replace with proper working USB stack from CAF (though you may still need a special cable for it)
[HTC Amaze 4G] shuvarts:
Thanks for the confirmation....!!! I can't wait for the fully working CM9 by sportstar now :D:D:D:D

I already got all the cables since I used it to try on my touchpad... Btw, will the usb otg need external power source or can the amaze power the usb? My touchpad need external power source for usb otg; so, I'm just wondering how it will go with this phone
[HTC Amaze 4G] Sk8trfred:
Faux can we expect an aosp kernel from you? or not until everything is working
[HTC Amaze 4G] Perry977:
Sports' cm9 has otg working i guess..only data and gps and few other minor stuffs donts work...if you dont use data(meaning that u have wifi everywhere) its almost a daily driver
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
I'm pretty sure that the amaze works with the "dual boot" option that a few apps out there can create, for those willing to create multiple partitions.. installing cm9 and something with working data would mean that a quick reboot is all that is needed to get working data when wifi isn't available..

Not intending to hijack the thread, but we could definitely discuss it somewhere if anyone is interested in giving it a try.

I am a bit interested in an aosp kernel also, if/how it would make cm9 work better.. I have a feeling the data issue will be resolved sooner rather than later.

I will say this... I did NOT change Roms. I DID wipe cache and dalvik. I DID create a backup so no big deal I can just revert.

I can't say that I'm positive its the new version but to be honest, nothing else has changed. Oh and I recalibrated my battery after flashing the new kernel once it got to 100%.

I don't get it, if it were a new version problem with drain, I'm sure others would have posted by now.

I found the cause to my issues. /system partition had zero available space. Once i freed up some room and reflashed everything, my issues were resolved..

I need to figure out how to repartition the size of /system, kind of lame having only 1gb of the 10gb dedicated to system. system was full due to my fault from playing around with making my own custom bootloader images. I made one too large, forgot about it over time because i couldn't get it to work. Now i just am wondering if it didn't work because there wasn't free room on /system.
[HTC Amaze 4G] gaww:
Since battery life seems to be a consistent issue, I would recommend trying the battery conditioning procedure recommended by HTC (on another device, but I had used it earlier on the OEM battery on the Amaze:

To also help with Battery Life you can do these steps exactly: 1) Turn your device ON and Charge the device for 8 hours or more 2) Unplug the device and Turn the phone OFF and charge for 1 hour 3) Unplug the device Turn ON wait 2 minutes and Turn OFF and charge for another hour Your battery life should almost double, we have tested this on our devices and other agents have seen a major difference as well.

I am doing it now, and on both device OFF periods, I am seeing the amber charging light on. I am going to wipe battery stats after finishing and will post results. It will not double, but i think it will help (I got as far as the first OFF mode charge but had to use the phone, and I already saw an improvement).
