what's the different b/n 1.10 and test 1? besides 1.10 possibly causing bootloops..

does test 1 have better effect on battery life?
[HTC Sensation] UnixSlayer:
There's also a Test 2 btw.....
[HTC Sensation] Alienator9191:
sorry for this nooby question:

what is the most relyable cpu overclocker? in terms of:

2 cpus online

under/overclock act asap

switch speed between profiles(if availble)

sorry for my bad english ;) THANK IN ADVANCE
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
What are the differences between 1.10, test1 and test2??

Any chance you could make test1 with a higher OC?
[HTC Sensation] disellusional:
haven't heard of many people using test 2
[HTC Sensation] Dai323:
Stable as hell for me at 1.72ghz on on demand settings with System Tuner Pro. Will test 1.8 soon.
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
Tested all the way to 1.8xGhz. No stability issues here, fantastic mod Sebastian!

I should mention I KNOW my phone can take up to 1.91Ghz, so its more of a test of the kernel as opposed to testing the phone.

Thanks a lot for the update!
[HTC Sensation] Iamhero123:
Running test 1 at 1.7ish with no problems, I'm getting a slightly rubbish battery life, but I think that's a mixture of my current rom and never calibrating the battery.
[HTC Sensation] BAleR:
+1 on this, although if u use setcpu like I do I think it locks on both cores so that would explain bad battery. I'm on Android revolution 6.3, its the fastest phone I've ever had, but for some reason I only get 3780 in quadrant. I've never gone over this for some reason
[HTC Sensation] Alienator9191:
check for mikes kernel thread for GB there is a kernel for sensation at 2 ghz

sgs2 gets 3100 here so dont even think bout wanting higher score

btw wich rom u use? i used sense 4 and it absolutly kills my ram xD

i also always want i higher score xD but i got a score 3790 wich is 500 point higher then the by specs called better phone sgs 2 since compair i cant say im disappointed but he ran 1.2 while i did 1.7 xD and i almost alway underclock because this phone just kills my battery, altough i expected this and this is my first smartphone i hoped an anker 1900 mAh would last longer then 8 hours whit moderate use. this is just since i use this kernel and i is a heavy battery drain compaired to the older version with oc/uv 1.728 max
[HTC Sensation] inzaghi75:
Have you test it with an AOSP Rom like Inquisition Virtuous Rom. I think HTC Sense slows your System.
[HTC Sensation] HunnyBearLewis:
It looks like a good amount of you using this kernel also use System Tuner (Pro for some)...

When in the CPU tab, do you see cpu0 constantly running at 100%? I navigate to another tab, come back and the CPU jumps from ~30% up to 100% and will simply stay up there regardless of how OC'd (or not) I am. Phone also seems to run hotter than previous kernels from this thread. Is it just that STP is a heavy load to run?

Also, cpu1 never kicks in and I imagine if cpu0 is under a constant heavy load it would turn on by itself? (without being forced on of course) Don't really know much about it so please correct me.

I am at 384/1.5GHz with OnDemand but got the same results on Conservative and Interactive.
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Nope, not here. But on the other Sense 3.6 kernel, I did see something similar, where cpu0 was always 100%. I changed governor to some other one, then changed it back. This seemed to do the trick...not sure what caused. But it's fine with this newer kernel.
[HTC Sensation] HunnyBearLewis:
Hmm, I'm on this kernel too...perhaps I just need to reflash it. Thanks for the quick response :)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Some governors have crappy coding, for example the SmartAss one for the GB custom kernels kept getting stuck at max, i use conservative and have no issues with stuck CPU clocks :)
[HTC Sensation] leftcoastfunk:
+1 on Test2 kernel working smooth with no issues...no blue tint :) ...bootloops on v1.10 :( (did not try Test1)

AnTuTu @6571 OC 1.56 performance governer

Nice work SebastianFM!
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
Read my notes in updated OP.

Many thanks for all these delicious beers, I drank a little yesterday and day before yesterday, but today not and I prepared something new. :D
[HTC Sensation] hd2neuling:
Just tried v1.11 1,836 GHz with Elegancia v3.0.1.

Does not work on my "usual" Sensation, allways hanging at Splashscreen :(

It´s no big problem for me, the older 1,7 GHz (before 1.10) is still working on my device.

LG, Helmut
[HTC Sensation] xgnesh39:
I did flashed latest kernel 1.11 but it shows some weird things in setting/about phone/ it cant read kernel/build number or software version. So I m flashing back 1.10 to see how!!!
[HTC Sensation] varxx:
When I just tried them, the two links for v. 1.11 - 1.51GHz lead to v. 1.10.

---------- Post added at 10:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:30 PM ----------

Already fixed. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] dazzlet:
Will the new kernel still have the blue tint issue that me and some other users have experienced?
[HTC Sensation] squeeish:
Works for me.
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
v1.11 1836 MHz bootloops for me :-(

Gone back to test1 for now...
[HTC Sensation] Spr33y:
Did you clear Dalvik cache?
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
yes 10chars
[HTC Sensation] erraggy:
Not all phones are created equal. I could not boot above 1782MHz. For this reason I chose the lesser kernel.
[HTC Sensation] HunnyBearLewis:
Does this look normal/right? In the frequency graph it's sitting at 1.512 GHz constantly.

on any Governor my CPU shows 100% usage except for those few drops in the history each lasting half a second before shooting back up.
[HTC Sensation] Dijkstra88:
Thank you Sebastian for this great overklocked kernel, works flawless
[HTC Sensation] grega_slo:
Installed 1.11 works like 1.10 did :)
[HTC Sensation] stanlyyy:
Wow the New 1.836ghz kernel is so fast great.

Thank you Sebastian.
[HTC Sensation] df1ech:
Try changing the governor to some else and then revert it back i have this issue since the base before 3.24
[HTC Sensation] df1ech:
Try changing the governor and back i got tjis issur since the base before 3.24
[HTC Sensation] rpachecoh:
I've been running v1.10 1.512/192 it was great. Updating now to v1.11

I'm a bit nooby with this, so could anyone explain me which are the advantages of using a minimum of 384 vs 192? 192 gives a better battery performance?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
384 means no lag on phone wake, some user's experience lag when turning screen on
[HTC Sensation] inzaghi75:
I have flashed the 1,6 Ghz kernel but System Tuner set it on 1,5 Ghz :confused: Is it too much for my Sensation?
[HTC Sensation] M pro:
v1.11 is working nicely for me

currently at 1.78ghz and no auto clock down

very nice :-)
[HTC Sensation] rpachecoh:
So if I don't experience this lag, is better for battery draining using a 192 config, isn't it? Perfect! Thanks Jonny ;)
[HTC Sensation] wmoore:
Thank you. Just flashed this and it definitely feels a little quicker. Haven't done any benchmarks but it does feel a bit better.
[HTC Sensation] baadnewz:
maybe different stages of beta ? and you have a short memory then, there where problems with that leak too, but us the community ironed them out eventually
[HTC Sensation] pirlano:
well, upgrading to sense3.5 in GB doesn't requiere too much work, and kernel changes are not so important, upgrading to ICS requiere more work, new libs, new kernel, and it's only and early beta leak (there are few already know bugs), not a february leak :)
[HTC Sensation] jjdoctor:
Why would you guys worry about battery drain? There is power saver mode that would underclock your processor to 1ghz and that applies very well to this Kernel...

Wish i was a developer, i would try to figure out how to enable 1.2 ghz in Power Saver mode with this kernel rather than having 1ghz ...
[HTC Sensation] feenty:
+1

Good idea! :)
[HTC Sensation] masondoctorjt:
Who cares about dual-core when it keeps up with the dual core native ics phone... Again here's results.
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
My 2200Mah Battery lasted 7 hours on standby.Only lost about 2 hours in reality which i dont mind for a 300mhz bump
[HTC Sensation] ziggy1001:
What the hell is your phone doing in standby to drain that quick?
[HTC Sensation] Ducter:
I bet you RC28 would flat out haul ass on the Sensation...anyone up for it?

Seriously, I havent had a phone that the Devs here havent been able to make better, it may take a bit of time but with that sort of thought process we would all be running RC28..
[HTC Sensation] B!GBOY:
is it possible to fix 3d games issue? like what show p did with HTC sense 3 kernel did? it really annoying that unity games does not work:confused:
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
I wE wondering that. I have a 1900mah battery and it lasts twice that!
[HTC Sensation] cjonesfan921:
Speed is unreal.

I flashed Leedroid yesterday, and it was extremely lagging. I was thinking of reverting to a different ROM.

However, flashing this kernel, incredible.

Battery is so-so, honestly. Idle it is great. With use, however, I get mixed results. Sometimes drains more than usual, sometimes not as much. Thankfully, I have an office job, so it stays sitting on the charger for the most part, I will stick with it. Benchmarks were incredible!

Nice work.
[HTC Sensation] cb1100r:
your right... Devs make miracle sometime :)

right ;)

no need bench to evaluate the speed ;) using of my device at 100% is my best benchmark ! i know what i need , what i can accept and what i can't... no need nice graphique for that ..

i agree than this ICS is now good and can be OK for 98% users... but a need excellent for my job and for my mind lol :)

on GB i'm on RC213V ... on ICS On RC28
[HTC Sensation] Dougi:
great kernel, device moves much quicker..., much smoother, testing more tonight .... :)

Thanks , you made move back to ICS :D

:D Cbr ;)
[HTC Sensation] Jedi2011:
Yes it works, and works brilliantly. Can't fault it at all.
[HTC Sensation] Jedi2011:
I can duplicate the benchmark scores shown above, this kernel makes the stock leaked ICS RUU fly along. No ROM applied here, just the beta RUU with this kernel flashed via 4ext.
[HTC Sensation] sirbilbo:
Nice !!

Waited long for this !!
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
Hi bonesy. I prefer stock ROMs without unnecessary modifications and redundant additions. HTC ROMs for Sensation are good enough without this. Maybe when HTC will release official ICS ROM for Sensation, I'll prepare ROM without bloatware and with modified kernel only.

Yes.

It is possible, I'm not genius but I'm able to do it.

For me Power Saver Reduce Speed option doesn't work currently.

You're wrong. I checked kernel from HTC Sensation ROM 2.08.401.1 Sense 3.5. It has Sensation XE CPU frequencies. I'll try to enable it for non XE Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] marcos600rr:
Sebastian does your kernel break cam?
[HTC Sensation] ptr_hamilton:
Camera works fine for me.. even in sports mode :D
[HTC Sensation] inzaghi75:
With Xe or Non ? Is this a feature the auto clock down?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
1.5 is default, use system tuner to change the values
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
If you don't have lag then yes 192 is better :)
[HTC Sensation] HunnyBearLewis:
Thank you the response but it didn't work :( I tried that numerous times with all the governors. Darn.
[HTC Sensation] M pro:
Non

And on 1.10 I had problems with running at 1.78ghz, it was clocking its self to 1.5ghz when it was being pushed

now it stays at 1.78ghz when pushed hard :-)
[HTC Sensation] inzaghi75:
Sebastian is it possible to put this in your kernel for Sense 4?

Yeay, I think found the problem for all the graphical glitches (like when scrolling in the App drawer, the screen 'tears') or when pulling the notification bar up and down very fast (it'll 'tear').

The vSync is off.

This is just a basic description of vSync:

Say your screen refreshes at 60Hz - vSync on will attempt to display 30fps to avoid tearing. 30 goes into 60 twice evenly... get it?

vSync off will display as many fps as possible. So rather than holding back and displaying 30fps it will allow 35fps. This will cause tearing because 35 does not go into 60 evenly.

So we have to enable vSync to avoid this..

Edit: The LG Optimus One kernel developer did it like this:

Code:

drivers/video/msm/mddi_hitachi_hvga.c

pinfo->lcd.vsync_enable = TRUE;

pinfo->lcd.hw_vsync_mode = TRUE;
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
Seems I cant boot above 1728 which is a shame as I seem perfectly stable at 1728 and it seems like my phone could do more...
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
So just choose v1.11 with lower frequency instead of using test1, I'm 100% sure it will work!

But I haven't source code for this kernel yet.

I turned off v-sync sometimes for tests in GB using debug.gr.swapinterval=0 defined in build.prop. Maybe you'll try this to force it on.
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
Yeh dropped down to 1728 but it just seems this phone could do more

Good work on the kernel!
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
I don't think if it can't even boot at higher frequency.
[HTC Sensation] Josoft:
Crash my phone

:(
[HTC Sensation] :
Using v1.10 I find 1.83 causes reboots, however 1.78 is stable on my device. CFbench 7980 with performance governor, cpu1 forced online.

Great work! :cool:

Great job!

Working stable @1836 MHZ :D
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
Yes ... Really nice .

Quadrant score 4130 :D
[HTC Sensation] mzebrowski13:
Guys do you really see the difference between 1512 and 1836 Mhz beside higher battery drain, random reboots or bootloops? I'm asking is it worth? What kinds of apps or games working better with 1.8Ghz? Of course, except the benchmark:D
[HTC Sensation] wxdjs:
can you support voice record in the kernel, I installed callrecorder ,but it say don't have support kernel.
[HTC Sensation] Bastaerd:
It's a hex edited kernel so no. Blame HTC for not releasing kernel source.
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
So, where is the kernel log?

Probably 1836 MHz is a little to high for your phone. Try to flash v1.11 1782 MHz or 1728 MHz, they are better than v1.10.

If it is very little, it isn't a drain. :) Of course when CPU is running at higher frequency it consumes more power, but battery drain on my kernel - impossible.
[HTC Sensation] wxdjs:
I used CM7 ROM with faux123 kernel before ,and I installed callrecorder ,it'ok !
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
But HTC Android 4.0.3 doesn't work with faux123 or other 2.6.x kernel, 3.0.x kernel is required.
[HTC Sensation] wxdjs:
thank you for reply ,

I use 4.0.3 ROM now ,so I think if you can modified kernel to support record, haha

it will perfect !
[HTC Sensation] krohme:
are there any such kernels (capable of being overclocked to 1.8Ghz ) available for Gingerbread based roms?

edit: found a thread with a collection :o
[HTC Sensation] guyd:
Don't think that will be possible until HTC releases the new kernel source code.
[HTC Sensation] Astug:
Thanks for another update, going to try out the 1728MHz version for awhile.
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
What is the difference between the 1.7 kernel in orange and the one in black?
[HTC Sensation] Rickdaddy:
I don't have time to check all the pages, but does the 1.8ghz work with the 3.24fw?

thanks
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
Except color, the black one runs at 1728 MHz and orange at 1782 MHz.
[HTC Sensation] kingston73:
Woops, that's my fault, I swear when I read them they both were the same, dyslexia maybe?:D
[HTC Sensation] jonata:
hi Seb,

your opinion about setup your kernel :

it's better use setcpu or system tuner ?

tks for reply mate
[HTC Sensation] hd2neuling:
Just flashed the 1,728 GHz Kernel with black characters, work´s fine (didnt know what´s the difference in teh 1,728 with yellow characters).

Think i wanted to much from my hardware :D

Big thanks for your great work :)

LG, Helmut
[HTC Sensation] Rickdaddy:

and, Seb, wich is the version that I reasd in your sig ? (1.12 ???)

tks mate
[HTC Sensation] trx182:
Good job Seb, 1.62 works splendid!
[HTC Sensation] jesterpaul:
Had my phone working okay on previous version at 1.83Ghz for a couple of days, but doing AnTuTu benchmarking somehow broke it (after running a benchmark the first time it would crash the phone if I ran another even with CPU downclocked to 1.5Ghz with Set CPU). Freezes and random reboots then started happening in general use.

Reflashed ROM (Insert Coin 4.6.1) with full wipe and tried newest fastest one. Immediately got bootloop, or it would get as far as loading Rosie and then freeze.

Tried 1.78Ghz one. So far so good. Quadrant score 3813 (bit scared of running AnTuTu again just yet)
[HTC Sensation] kontroversus:
Are we going to have UV versions?
[HTC Sensation] matt95:
i have installed this kernel and it is great but i think that this one cause a issue...i'm with insercoin 4.6.1 and when i press the unlock button the phone doesn't wake up immediately...

Biggest difference is SetCPU locks CPU1 online fulltime, while System Tuner allows you to keep core #2 (aka core1) offline until needed (as controlled by HTC's mpdaemon). Otherwise they are pretty much the same
[HTC Sensation] jonata:
anyone :

wich app use to set kernel ? (and wich is the best for you)

1) system tuner

2) setcpu

For some reason the new update set my MIN & MAX to 1836 and my phone kept freezing up and rebooting.

Also if you are not using a specific governer is an app really needed?
[HTC Sensation] maniep:
Great Kernel SebastianFM :)

Thank you.

My Sensation 4G is flying.

I am using System Tuner Pro and activated both Cores at a frequency of 1.78 Mhz.
[HTC Sensation] iba21:
nope, until htc releases kernel's source code..

this is only a hex edit mod, it means change values from FF FF FF FF to the value you chose
[HTC Sensation] dallashigh:
Is your phone stable at 1836 with other ROMs/kernels?

If you don't want to change the default governor or clock speeds, there's no need for an app. Just flash the kernel and enjoy.
[HTC Sensation] badai:
i can use callrecorder even it said kernel is not patched. it will record from line, not mic just like when using any patched kernel.
[HTC Sensation] swazii:
Sorry quick question, i have never used System tuner before, how do u activate the second core? does it use alot more battery if it is enabled?
[HTC Sensation] :
You check the option in boot settings. It will use more battery and may lead to reboots (does for me)

Sent from my Pyramid-T
[HTC Sensation] swazii:
Ok thank you :)
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
if it leads to reboots i would of thought that was a stability issue

have you gone back to stock kernel and tested?
[HTC Sensation] :
Yes I get reboots on any kernel by forcing cpu1 online. The higher the frequency, the quicker it happens, due to CPU heat.

Sent from my Pyramid-T
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
But no random reboot when running benchmarks etc and putting the phone under lots of stress and cpu1 is def kicking in?
[HTC Sensation] :
Yep that's right. Only if I force cpu1 to run continually for a period if time.

Sent from my Pyramid-T
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
Odd, thanks for clarifying
[HTC Sensation] alanapone:
Nooby question here.

Can I flash this using 4ext recovery?

Also, should I start with a low speed kernal and run it for a few days then try a faster one until I have problems so I can get the quickest one for my phone?

I'm new to this lot and have put the arhd ics rom on but want a bit more speed ;)

Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] ziggy1001:
Yes the kernels are flashed from recovery, finding the max speed can be done various ways, from slowest to fastest vice-versa or adjust speed of fastest kernel with SetCPU, System tuner etc, assuming it boots of course
[HTC Sensation] gefilus:
i can use this kernel with virtuous inquisition 3.5.0??

Works like a charm with insertcoin 4.6.1! No bootloops or whatsoever... :) running at 1.5 freq. Just One question, of i just install,like i did now and dont tweak Any further with setcpu or something....is CPU 2 forced online also?

Thanx sabestian dor the great and hard work! :)
[HTC Sensation] jufa2401:
Does it work with ARHD 6.3?
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
No, if you don't use any app to tweak CPU settings, everything works in the same way as in stock kernel, the only difference is increased max CPU frequency.
[HTC Sensation] mrew42:
Oh yes indeed.

See my sig
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
For people with strange low benchmark scores ...

It's not the kernel ... I don't know really what it is but restarts , clearing dalvic and cache or reflashing kernel , adjusting the min freq a little higher can fix this!

The kernel is great

Quadrant 4130 with 1.83 GHz...

I had similar problems with scores ... These things can help

[HTC Sensation] Marc M:
Hi Seb, previously I used one of your under volted kernels with the initial ARHD releases of ICS which gave me amazing battery life. I'm currently on ARHD .6.3.0 with your 1.1 kernel and, well, my battery drains big time for the same useage... I picked the owest freq kernel too, 1.5Ghz.

I was wondering if you were planning on releasing an volted version of this kernel too?

Just want to say thanks for your work too, while I have the chance.
[HTC Sensation] Marc M:
Ha, that's what I get for writing this post on an iPad... Meant to say v1.11 and UNDER volted kernel* oops
