joquinf did you manage to flash the test kernel from seb just there a few posts ago, any luck with touch screen issues? all gone?#

edit:

whoops i just noticed zero is already testing thanks zero
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
I've flashed the test version and this are my findings:

Although i could reproduce the multitouch issue (sticky touch1) with multitouch test app, shadowgun is working nice. No more crazy things nor controls getting stuck. Gaming is fine, will do some more tests and report back.

Nicely done. You are on the right track sir.

Edit: been playing shadowgun and mc3 since the kernel release aprox 20 mins ago and i havent had any issues whatsoever. Gaming experience is greatly improved in the test. I couldnt notice any consequence of the sticky touch issue showed in multitouch test app while playing
[HTC Sensation] mox123:
thanks joquinf, im eagerly awaiting the overclocked kernels from seb
[HTC Sensation] MasterGGM:
After installing the v1.30.1 1512 MHz Kernel on my VI 4.0.0 I was using the phone and went through my settings for a few minutes and the battery dropped from 50% to 41%.

I don't know what's going on. I use SetCPU to control the OC but don't have any specific profiles..
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
MASTERGGM Don't use Setcpu mate its not been properly updated for our devices.Use system tools pro,you can force both cores too unlike setcpu

The problem here is that a majority of people demanding "GPL" Rules dont have a clue how to build sources, they just want to be the person at the front of the mob with the pitchfork oiled and ready to go! So unless your a Mod, Developer or have the knowledge how to use these sources then give over.They will come! Give people a chance.You all loved seb when he hex edited the kernel to allow overclocking and still you demanded sources although there were none.

Personally i think that you should have to apply to be able to post in development section,General should have ROM specific threads, as should Q&A.

I've been on here a few years now and on a fair few devices and it seems that all the newer members are the ones who wind me up with stupid questions and pointless arrogance.

Please just relax and let the Real developers get on with it :);)

Hope you continue Sebastian "One nie mają żadnej idei "
[HTC Sensation] MasterGGM:
Thanks a bunch for the advice!! :D

P.S. I reinstalled the test version, .2 and my battery went from 41% to 51%.. lol

P.S.S. Can you please link me to the app? I cannot find it anywhere.
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
Sorry its system

tuner

not system tools
[HTC Sensation] MasterGGM:
Oh ok thanks, i found that one lol

Should it be on "on demand" or "interactive" ?

When I put it on "on demand" it tends to stick to 1.5GHz without moving.
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
System tuner

paid version

free version
[HTC Sensation] Master_Ellis:
You the man!

v1.30.1 1512 works perfectly on my friend's Sensation running v1.3 HyperNonSense ICS Rom by Kris....
[HTC Sensation] jmwils3:
just an fyi, tho, setcpu HAS been updated recently for multicore devices, and a rather slick new ICS-based UI.
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
True. You need the paid version from google play, though. XDA free version isn't updated anymore

Could you please NOT quote the whole OP?? just post the reply.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] jmwils3:
I didnt know that, I bought it ages ago, The dev seemed worth supporting, even on a meager college kid budget :)
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
lol i didnt realise it had been updated! I too bought o support...dloading now although im mighty psd that i bought system tuner not 2 days ago
[HTC Sensation] Master_Ellis:
My bad

After reading thru the thread and seeing all the huss and fuss over multi-touch, gpl rules, and releasing source I thought it would be nice to insert what's most important the awesome kernel that Sebastian has brought us.
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
Have to agree ellis! On a side not...SETCPU IS LOOKIN AWESOME! Although ive had to dload bloater.apk and add lee's dual core script to get the 2nd core back from "offline"
[HTC Sensation] akapaul26:
Agree 100%, people need to stop hating. Sebastian is the only one to provide us with kernels for ICS from the get go. Sebastian is the man and I have nothing but respect and cant thank him enough. Source code...what ever who cares and besides he already said he will release it to stay compliant. Piss on anyone hating....stfu and buy the man a round. I have donated so I have room to talk... Big up to Sebastian and THANK YOU AGAIN!

Thank you again for all your hard work!

Please don't let people that come here only for taking stuff to get to you..
[HTC Sensation] HunnyBearLewis:
just another confirmation: v1.30.2 on VI is working splendidly...just successfully played Shadowgun for the first time in a while :)

Thank you very much, Sebastian.
[HTC Sensation] Abaddon:
anyone tried it on virtuos s4x A3?
[HTC Sensation] rmk40:
Cheers, thanks for putting this together. One thing, which you probably already know, is that Virtuous Inquisition uses a full set of Sense frameworks and libs. All the apps are AOSP but the only framework we have outright replaced is android.policy.jar.

Anyhow, not sure how if at all this impacts your work but I appreciate the focused attention for VInq users. :)
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
Workin on insertcoin beta 10 although it breaks animations (which i expected) Can you please disable VSYNC on next release if its not done already and not oo much to ask :) Runs smooth as butter though!
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Definitely solved the issue for me. Thanks so much.
[HTC Sensation] remus82:
Thanks sebastian. Multitouch issue is gone. On hyper nonsense rom by Kris. :D
[HTC Sensation] tegezan:
works good with InsertCoin 5.1.5... I can play shadowgun again... Thanks Sebastian... :)
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
I have it on demand then conservative for screen off.Never have it set to powersave as it tends to stick at the lowest freq
[HTC Sensation] mrxjhsnx:
Is that wat mdeejay and baad did was disable vsync to fix animations?

Don't worry mate, you still have few days :) Don't let anyone push/force you.
[HTC Sensation] broncogr:
To end this...

Sebastian was notified yesterday about sources and has been given 5 days to post them.

Now if I read anymore "desperate cries" for GPL compliance I will take action against the one who posts them. I am posting this here so that it is documented.

Consider everyone warned.
[HTC Sensation] jesterpaul:
Using it no problem with Insert Coin Sense 4 beta 10. Running the 1.78Ghz.V1.30 release.

That said, individual results may vary, as I've seen posts about kernel issues in that thread

[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
Sebastian's new test kernel has now corrected shadowgun and samurai vengeance controls, don't know what was changed in the kernel but it's now perfect on these games too. As rmk has said, it still uses all the behind the scenes stuff as sense, apart from android.policy.jar, so I'm not sure what caused it.
[HTC Sensation] cozmer:
multitouch test shows me maximum 4 point, is this a Sensation hardware (screen) limit or is this a kernel value? If that is not a HW limit - will future releases have more points working?

Thanks

MOD EDIT: THIS IS SEBASTIANFM's KERNEL THREAD!!!!

sorry to mod
[HTC Sensation] pakraider:
Anyone else noticing the "warm" colors are back with 1.30.1?
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
What was changed in the 1.30.2 test kernel? The multitouch is totally fixed, but I've noticed that it now only benchmarks at around 2150 on antutu, whereas on 1.30.1 it did well over 6000 at the same 1.5GHz. It did just over 7000 at 1.728GHz on 1.30.1 as well. My emulators seem unstable now too.

As soon as I flash 1.30.1 again, everything goes back to normal. Except for shadowgun and samurai vengeance of course.
[HTC Sensation] Bartekbar:

1.30.2 HAS DEFINITELY SOLVED multitouch issue on Virtuous Inquisition 4, at least for me

Fantastic job
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
Yes multitouch works perfect, although in multitouch test app it sticks, works perfect in gta3, nice job!

Just trying to work out what causes battery issues now so I can forward it on to you
[HTC Sensation] erto90:
on mine, it doesnt stick

i saw a video about that, but mine definitely is ok:confused:
[HTC Sensation] zero01101:
sounds like a bad download; maybe try downloading again? check the md5 of the file against the md5s posted by sebastianFM to verify you've got an exact duplicate before trying to flash, as well.
[HTC Sensation] dullahan263:
Hi i have ARHD 6.51 ROM with 1512MHz kernel. But i cannot find any undervolting options in both SetCPU and System Tuner Pro? Any help? Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
There aren't any, this is a stock kernel, edited to increase clock speed.
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
? no its not, check the op, kernel source is out, 1.30.1 and up is built from source
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
It's still what would be the stock kernel, then edited to provide the overclock.
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
No its not! Can't you read?

It use to be hex edited but now its built from HTC kernel source
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
Of course it is, it's built from HTC source, I.E built from code written by HTC for the stock kernel. Sebastian has then edited the bits he wanted to change. It's still based off what would've been a stock kernel. Know what I mean?
[HTC Sensation] Solar_:
He didn't hex edited the kernel anymore. He used the kernel source that HTC posted on their dev site. By using that, he modified some things, etc.. Not hex edited at all.
[HTC Sensation] zero01101:
whoa there cowboys; i think the disconnect is that sebastian is likely no longer doing any hex-editing whatsoever to these kernels; now that he's got raw htc source, he can tweak directly in code and compile a clean build instead of dirty hexing. :)

[edit]

gaah, solar_'s a bit faster than i.
[HTC Sensation] Catpoule:

[HTC Sensation] kenzhin:
guys, what will be the benefit of this kernel(1836)?

when i use this kernel? it will turn on the 2nd core permanently? meaning my battery will drain faster than before?

sorry to ask but im using the stock kernel, and im going to install ARHD 6.5.2
[HTC Sensation] rawdealer:
You can enable this with SetCPU :)

Sent with a cold beer in my hand :)
[HTC Sensation] shiningarmor:
are u htcdev unlocked? if yes, unzip the kernel.rar and save the boot.img somewhere, then flash the kernel again, but reboot into fastboot mode and flash the boot.img manually with fastboot.

stop acting smart when u cant even differentiate a kernel built from source and a hex edited kernel
[HTC Sensation] geoffcorey:
His problem is, he's running a stock boot.img, probably flashed from an ruu. This means that the first few bytes of his ram disk are encrypted, and the kernel posted is a zimage, which then copies the current ram disk, and makes a boot.img and flashes that.

He has to find an insecure boot.img first (which if someone wanted to, upload a boot.img of one of the hex edited kernel flashed, backed up by a nandroid), otherwise he will always get that error, not matter what he does.

Tl;Dr, he needs a full boot.img which isn't located in the op.

I'm also working on getting an insecure boot.img for those with status 7 errors.
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
v1.30.2 definitly fixed multitouch (I'm running ARHD) :)

Strange, some multitouch testers still show sticky inputs, when some other tester NEVER stick ("multitouch Vis test" sticks, "Multitouch test" - the one with green or grey circles - doesn't stick). Those apps are not perfect :D

But nevermind, games are now perfectly playable!

Hats off for SebastianFM ! You brought me the fun playing games and emulators again!
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
I thought I'd already deleted the word hex from my initial post, but looking back I hadn't. Is that what you guys think I'm saying then? If so, apologies.
[HTC Sensation] dyval:
face palm

Oh no..I can't believe you're insisting that this is stock kernel..<face palm> :p..
[HTC Sensation] StuartTheFish:
I'm not saying it's stock, I'm saying it's based on stock, it's not as if he wrote it from scratch.
[HTC Sensation] MOVZX:
Good news, gonna prove that. Thanks mate for the info.
[HTC Sensation] shiningarmor:
oh, so the boot.img in a kernel.rar isn't the full one or is it a secured one?
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
Undervolting causes system more unstable instead of battery friendly.

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Nexus
[HTC Sensation] geoffcorey:
um..... not sure what you're trying to say.

boot.img = zimage (the compiled kernel) + ramdisk.

on the sensation, htc encrypts the first couple of bytes of the stock ruu ramdisk of the kernel. Most of the kernel devs on here use a method that copies the original ramdisk, and then run a script that makes a boot.img on the fly, meaning they only package a zimage. This makes for less errors/issues later on when people go and modify ramdisks.

However, with the partially encrypted ramdisk, this causes errors withthe way kernels are packaged here. So people must first flash an insecure boot.img (which you will get with custom roms).

here is an insecure boot.img.

After you flash that, flash whatever kernel you want :)
[HTC Sensation] johnerz:
Using CodreDroid 4.1 this new kernel is the mutts nuts, thanks for all the hard work :)
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
and has been shown to have little, if any, battery savings through extensive testing
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Is there any way to prevent the second core going up to the max frequency when online?

I'm using system tuner and i've noticed that no matter which speed i set the cpu to be running at, when the second core goes online (isn't online always as with setCPU) it does all the way up to 1.5 GHz. Considering you have kernel source now, is there any way you could give a deeper look at this? According to my experience there is a huge difference in batt life between stock 1.2 kernel and yours @1.5. I'd love to use the 1.30.2 version underclocked to 1.2Ghz.

BTW, 1.30.2 test version is running great on gaming. There are some random moments the cam goes crazy but just for a tap and everything is back to normal. Butt battery seems to drain pretty fast.

Thanks for your work sebastian!
[HTC Sensation] i900frenchaddict:
Right, after having used undervolting on all ARHD ROMs with daemon controller, now I'm just using SetCPU (latest version, seems to be good for CPU1), no undervolting, and can't see any battery-life difference
[HTC Sensation] mat9v:
Yes, undervolting offer pretty much no energy savings. About 80% of power is used by screen anyway (in most cases) and a difference between 1.1V and 1.0V is negligible. Overvolting on the other hand eats battery.
[HTC Sensation] Solar_:
Can you give me a link to the daemon controller? I can't find the right version..
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
youre running setcpu also right ?

uninstall it ... it forces cpu 1 to be online and that causes micro lags also

but faster quadrant score :D

decide what you want
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
Look at the OP, I explained everything. It isn't kernel related.
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
do you bring out 1.30.2 today ...? otherwise i can go to sleep now :D
[HTC Sensation] mike1986.:
@SebastianFM I sent you e-mail few days ago, not sure if you checked it? We have ready server space for your kernels if you want :)
[HTC Sensation] Keupie:
Yes!! Finally got the kernel running, it's awesome! Thanks Sebastian!

Now I'm just wondering wich one i should take. Now running the 1512 Mhz. Can someone tell me the difference in battery life between the 1512 and 1782?
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Im not running any cpu contoller app. I did tests with each of them separately, never with both of them installed.

As i stated in my post, second core is not always online with system tuner. This screenshot was under cpu stress and i caught the moment when the second core goes online.

SetCPU indeed turns on the second core permanently as you said and is also posted on the op.

Thanks though:D
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Thanks!. I've read that info already, but i thought it was only temperature related.

So no underclock to cpu1 :(
[HTC Sensation] gefilus:
Ty so much for new kernel. No more multi touch problems
[HTC Sensation] :
Fantastic work on 1.20 build. My device was idling overnight at 9-14 mA with 5% used in 6hrs. In conjunction I get CFbench of 7951.

I'm getting incorrect md5 checksum, trying to download 1.30.2, I'm using afv verifier from play store. Can you please check?thanks.
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
Which file?
[HTC Sensation] vincentshjuan:
md5 error

Hi Sebastian,

First off, great work....

Secondly, tried downloading ver. 1.32 but keep getting md5 checksum error for both the 1.836 and 1.782 Ghz ver.

Maybe you could verify on your side......

Anyone else with this problem?
[HTC Sensation] Keupie:
Just flashed 1.782, nu issues here

Question: do i need to change CPU frequency with the 1.782 kernel or is this optimized and can i leave it this way?
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
Any chance of a gpu overclock? To say 320?
[HTC Sensation] :
1.836 from link1 matches the md5 hash for me.
[HTC Sensation] milo77:
md5 for new version kernel 1.30.2 (1728, 1512 MHz) incorect. Thx for Great Job.:)
[HTC Sensation] vincentshjuan:
Then looks like it's my line problem, will try again later.....

Thanks y'all....
[HTC Sensation] milo77:
Ok. Thx now is correct md5. :)
[HTC Sensation] FordSierra88:
Hi Sebastian

Your New Kernel works perfect with ARHD 6.1.2 XE :)

Thx for you great Jobs :)
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
Currently if you want to change both cores frequency you must force enable second core, so it will be better if you choose kernel with proper frequency.

I released earlier HTC Sensation kernels with GPU maximum frequency set to 320 MHz and some of users reported stability issues.
[HTC Sensation] liamstears:
Could you not do gpu overclock and non overclock versions? According to a different kernel thread its only a 1 line change to get 320?

Sorry if I'm asking too much buddy
[HTC Sensation] Keupie:
Ok, so if i understand correct: i can just flash the 1782 kernel and run it without changin anything? I mean, is it nessecary to change the CPU frequency?
[HTC Sensation] dyval:
Play Store stopped

With all due respect to seb, I flashed the latest kernel and suddenly play store stopped working. Can someone check this please. My cursor and typing is also messed up..please help.

Many thanks SebastianFM!

Thanks to you and Mike1986, my Sensation is more than a Smartphone!
[HTC Sensation] SebastianFM:
I can't release 10 different kernel variants. But I have an idea. I'll leave 3D GPU frequency unchanged (267 MHz) and i'll enable possibility to OC to 300 MHz and 320 MHz.
[HTC Sensation] Catpoule:
Hi Sebastian, hi everyone,

I have a question, who has enable ZRAM ?

would like to know if there is really a diiference ?

would like to test it but i'm not very used to these codes .... what apps de you use for these codes ? system tuner ?
[HTC Sensation] biglolz:
wanting to know this also...if we simply flash the kernel with the desired OC, does this leave the enable/disable cores coming online etc as per the standard htc kernel?
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
thats the issue, zram needs to be enabled via a script.

Sebastian,

would you consider making the zram a init.d script to enable automatically? Would make it much easier for most users (who dont know terminal or scripts)

Thanks for considering!
[HTC Sensation] akapaul26:
Just go into market and install busybox installer. Then enter code exactly as posted in OP post. It will only take 2 minutes... A script you could run through script manager would be easier but this way dont take long. You have to have busybox installer installed though!!

This is what you should get if you have done it correct....type free into terminal
[HTC Sensation] drms12:
Please add version with 3d and 2d overclock
[HTC Sensation] 651stp:
what is the purpose of zram?
[HTC Sensation] akapaul26:
The zram module creates RAM based block devices.....Pages written to these disks are compressed and stored in memory itself. These disks allow very fast I/O and compression provides good amounts of memory savings. Basically is for storing swapped pages into compressed memory ram.
[HTC Sensation] zimphishmonger:
I know how to enable it, it just a pain to do so each boot..its even more useless to have an app boot specifically to run a script (like Script Manager, eating cpu cycles) when it can be run on boot via init.d, without using any extra resources
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
I just added the lines to the end of 81swap I created using ES File Explorer and edited using ES Note Editor, copied the beginning few lines from the other init.d scripts and set the permissions to rwx r-x r-x, seems to work fine after reboot.

Just rename to remove the .txt extension.

Edit: To clarify for our less experienced friends who see this, rename the file to remove the .txt extension, copy it to your SD. Use ES File Explorer, mount /system as Writable. Copy the file to the /etc/init.d directory. Browse to the file, long press it, choose properties, Change, then set the permissions as noted above. User: RWX, other two to R-X. Reboot. Enjoy the swappiness.

Edit2: Mike1986. is including a init.d script to enable swapping in ARHD 6.5.3, so you do not need to add the script below if you are using ARHD 6.5.3, or any other ROM where the chef has included a similar script. DO NOT ADD this script to ARHD 6.5.3.
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
SebastianFM, please make your kernel compatible with Sense 4

Thank You
[HTC Sensation] joaquinf:
Thanks for this helpful file buddy. I've a question though. What about editing init.post_boot.sh in /etc/ why isn't this working anymore? i've edited it and nothing happens. Will try your file anyways, is just sheer curiosity :D

I'm prolly just tired but I can't get the file to work... It doesn't set on boot. But if enter on command line it does... Maybe I'll look at it again tomorrow....
[HTC Sensation] mikef:
My phone is definitely not turning the screen off automatically after loading this new kernel. Plugged in or not, the screen will stay on until I hit the power button or click on the screen off widget. Sucking my battery dry since I didn't realize it at first. Other than that the new kernel sped things up and made it a bit smoother, so big +10 there. :D
