It appears so. I don't know why. I can share it except I don't have it. Since he's got an app now and widget to do it, maybe?

Either way I think his thread shows how to do it manually.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] blastthenoise:
Here you go guys..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
Tiny, do you know if the USB fast charge works on the test kernel?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
It should. I can enable it so I assume so. It is incredikernel and he didn't tell me he had to disable it to enable hardware acceleration. Its based off the Feb release.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miketwoms:
Saw someone mention ZRAM somewhere [forget - this thread or another] but I get "zram: not found" when entering the "zram enable " command in a terminal app.

there's an option under "Performance" in the Settings menu to set up ZRAM, but I can't tell if that's in action or not.

do I need to do something else?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] FacelessMan:
I installed this kernel on Evervolv 2.2 alpha 1. It works pretty well, but I have had multiple reboots when rotating the phone to landscape. The Tiamat kernel also had this problem at first, but they did something to correct it. Otherwise the kernel works pretty well. I like that I can use smartass2, and bump the cpu down to 128. Great work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
What version of the kernel are you running?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Does it happen every time? I tried a few times and I cannot reproduce it?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miketwoms:
newest beta posted by Chad, on the latest CM9 preview
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
Try this one, should fix the issue:

http://chad0989.dyndns.org/mirror/incredikernel-ics-hwaccel-test7.zip
[Droid Incredible Android Development] FacelessMan:
No, it seems to be completely random, but if I can reproduce it I will let you know. It has done it 2 or 3 times so far, but it does not do it every time I rotate to landscape.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Try test7 that Chad posted on the previous page.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] FacelessMan:
Thanks, somehow I missed that post. I am installing now. FYI - I was able to make it reboot by opening chrome beta, navigating to a web page that takes a while to load, and then rotating the phone 90 degrees at a time until it rebooted. It also happened at least once in Gmail, but it was easiest to reproduce in chrome. I will let you know if I can break it with the new update.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
As weird as it sounds, I went from when Chad posted the beta ICS kernel yesterday until about twenty minutes ago without having any reboot issues. Odd thing is, I had reboots only happen after I changed my rotation settings and then changed the default from ondemand to lagfree. I'm on latest CM9, I've since switched to beta 7. Does that sound odd at all Tiny? I tried seeing if I could reproduce your issue since I was reboot free like Tiny.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
To be honest I'm not that familiar with that issue and I didn't spend that much time troubleshooting that issue. I just tried 4-5 rotations without changing any settings for it on evervolv 2.2.0 a1.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
Gotcha, well I haven't noticed anything since I upgraded the kernel. I haven't had much success with video in any browser however I didn't have any success with the stock kernel on CM9. For me, it isn't an issue since I usually have a tablet or computer near me. What is HWA supposed to affect? I've been wondering this for awhile and I don't truly see what we would notice on the Inc. Could you clarify what it does on the Inc?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] FacelessMan:
Test7 is working much better. No reboots. I did have one freeze up when I plugged in my USB cable, but since I am overclocked I am not going to complain. It seems to be fine since I pulled the battery. Great kernel!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ChuckFarley:
I've had a couple of lockups when charging with test 7. Other than that, it's been running well on the CM9 kang.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miketwoms:
I've noticed something strange between Test 6 and Test 7. They both seem to work the same for me -very well - 99% of the time.

I had one lock-up when plugging the phone in to charge with 7.

But the real curious issue that prompts me to write, is this - I've noticed that when playing Words with Friends, the game freezes at these three points: when returning to the game after reading a message, when loading the ad after you make a move, and returning to the game after viewing the ad.

With Test 6, there is a small delay at these points, but it doesn't freeze. On Test 7, I pretty much have to exit the app and come back, because it will hang for a long time or even freeze while I'm waiting.

I only bring it up because of the different behavior from one kernel to the next. Other games and apps seem to run equally well on both, but this one game exposes something different in them. Chad, Tiny - any thoughts?

[edit:] ok after testing for a while longer, the difference isn't as great as I thought at first. It still hangs when using Test 6 as well as Test 7. I think the stock, or Tiamat kernels worked better with the app, so I will test it on those.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
I've had the same issue too. For me, it happens when I leave my phone charging and come back once it's charged, it will be non-responsive to the power button.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I've heard that Words with Friends is poorly coded to begin with. I wouldn't be so sure that's a kernel issue but Chad please step in if you have any thoughts.

However, the lockup during charge could be related to the kernel. I don't really know what's in the kernel as Chad built the test releases from my Feb incredikernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] miketwoms:
agree, the apps seems slow and freeze-prone regardless, but I thought that the difference from Test 6 to Test 7, and/or the difference from another kernel to this one, could be instructive.

Overall I'm extremely happy with the performance here, and thankful for the work you guys are putting in. hope I don't sound ungrateful :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
I flashed test 7 on Abduction ICS 2.0. It has been running smooth with no lockups. I'm using SA2, zram enabled and slight (-50, min and -25 max) undervolting. I'll have to wait a few days to tell you about battery life. However, I love the fact that I get USB fast charge.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] harshybar:
What is SA2?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Post 1 from my sense thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17052210

I should add that info here.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mushat3k:
I think he is referring to the smartassv2 scaling governor
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
Which is what is detailed in the first post of that thread. All the governors are explained.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruggerxpunk:
Using Test7, on CM9 a3, all playback of video from the Gallery is scrambled with green lines and complete garbage. Anyone having this issue?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sdana:
This kernel has been amazing so far. Extremely snappy and great battery life. No problems encountered so far. Running test 7 on evervolv 2.2.0a
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sdana:
Also, is zram built into test 7? Can't seem to enable it from terminal.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
It's probably there but the script is not. You can still enable it with a ROM that supports it (CM9) or pull the zram file from /system/xbin in an existing incredikernel zip into test7 and flash it (add an xbin folder in system if it's not there and drop the zram file there).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Confirmed that issue on Tiamat and the stock ICS kernel with this ROM so it's most definitely not a problem with test7.

Not sure if this issue exists on the latest evervolv but I'm on this ROM and I just wanted to confirm that test7 was not the cause as I didn't think it was and in doing so verified this issue on the stock kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
It's there; I was able to enable it through TE. Also rom control, under performance, has a zram enable also.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Cool. I thought so as it was built off an incredikernel with it added in. Most ICS ROMs (AOKP and CM9 for sure) have a zram enable option so the script isn't really needed unless you're running a rom without zram in which case you can push the zram file from an older incredikernel into /system/xbin and change permissions or add to the zip.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] normanx:
I was running the newest CM7 nightly with Incredikernel on demand, with fast charge enabled, whenever I used the program Voxer it would reboot my phone, I tried changing the kernel to smartass and my phone shut off and I had to pull the battery to get it to restart. any ideas on what I might could do?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Can you pull a copy of the /proc/last_kmsg file for me after your next reboot?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] normanx:
Actually no. My phone kept turning off after that so i went into recovery and switched to my back-up of the last cm7.1.0 signed that was released but it is not a nightly. But it seems to be fine running the same kernel. Sorry for wasting your time.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruggerxpunk:
I don't have the issue at all on CM9 a3 with the kernel that comes packaged with it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Doesn't make sense as I purposely flashed the stock kernel and had the screen issue. Please flash to stock to check. Since I can create the gallery video issue on stock it is not a kernel issue or its a kernel issue not exclusive to incredikernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruggerxpunk:
This is the order of operations of what I did:

1. Flash CM9 a3 (no video issues)

2. Flash test7 (video green lines, not watchable, but volume down + power button screenshot during scrambled video takes a screenshot of a normal image of what is happening in the regular video, not a scrambled screenshot)

3. Full wipe, flash CM9 a3, video works again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I never tested before test 7 as I didn't know of that issue. I'll try flashing stock kernel and wiping dalvik and see if the issue crops up again. If not I might have to wipe again. However that doesn't seem necessary based on my kernel knowledge as the kernel doesnt rely on dalvik at all.

Can someone test it today? I don't get home till 6 and don't have much time this evening.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
I have no gallery playback issues on test7 with CM9a3. I tried watching videos in both Quickpic and the stock Gallery app and my videos play fine. Now, to be clear, we are referring to videos you already have on your phone? I watched a few vids saved on my phone from months ago and playback looked fine. I have not tried recording a video and watching it, but I will if this is what we are talking about. I'm making a backup now and trying a fresh install CM9 just to see if I have any issues on stock kernel.

I'll post back in a few.

Edit: No playback issues on stock gallery app on previously recorded videos for CM9 a3.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruggerxpunk:
Yes I was talking about videos already on my phone. I never had good luck with flashing kernels in general, and my nandroid backups don't work anymore...so its just depressing cause the fast charge on test7 was sooooo nice :(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
I am going on a limb, but you have reflashed CWM and still a no go?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruggerxpunk:
I used to have CWM 3.0.0.8 and my backups from ics rooms didn't go past the boot animation.

So then I flashed the newest CWM 5.0.2.0 with a PMB31IMG and created a new backup of CM9 a3, flashed test7 , had the video issues, and my nand backup wouldn't go past boot animation again.

So I'm just afraid to try anything new cause its such a pain to have to full wipe every time.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
To be honest, I just tested with a video my friend recorded on her incredible and the playback issue is there on both stock and incredikernel. I just wiped cache+dalvik and re-flashed test 7.

Yeah, still an issue after wiping cache+dalvik. I don't really keep videos on my computer so I don't have non-incredible recorded videos. My theory is that it's a problem with certain video formats.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
On an unrelated note I updated post 2 with some information on CPU governors and stole the governor information from...myself.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ChuckFarley:
Test 7 is running like a dream on CM9a4 so far. Can't speak to to some of the camcorder issues, since it doesn't function on this rom just yet, but photos and video playback work just fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
Her curious what do you mean CM9a4? Where are you getting that ROM from? Can you provide a link? Also does anyone know if the AOKP builds HWA work if I flash chads/tinys beta incredikernel with HWA? THANK YOU!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
It's on the last page of the CM9 thread. Drk. hd hasn't updated the OP just yet but they posted alpha 4 yesterday in that thread.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 5thAgent:
Formatting is misspelled in the installer script. It only has one T for some reason.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Which kernel zip? I had actually taken out the dalvik wipe out of test builds and when I put it back I changed "formating" to wiping. I hate misspellings myself, especially the word kernal. So it's correct for all of my builds since then. Chad dumped it in one of his kernel zips that had formatting spelled wrong. The misspelling bothers me, but it's not something necessary to go back to correct as it's only aesthetic.

Edit: I guess you mean the test builds that Chad put out.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruggerxpunk:
I second this. No video issues.

I have noticed weird graphical glitches and anomalies in Instagram, however.

And even worse, if you edit pics in Instagram, then go to upload the pic, it freezes the phone required a battery pull.

*EDIT*

I've also noticed this test7 kernel, on CM9 a4, has fixed the glitchy screen-off animation 95% of the time.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jwm1986:
I have been getting great performance with test7 and CM9 a4. The only gripe I have is battery life is horrible compared to the "stock" kernel, and videos do not play correctly.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ChuckFarley:
I got 19 hours with 4% left. Granted, 8 hours of that was idle time while I slept, but still not bad for a day of moderate use. Have you tried resetting your battery stats.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruggerxpunk:
I also have no problems with battery life.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jwm1986:
I have not reset battery stats as it's not a reporting issue. It really dies that fast! I can normally run a full day of fairly heavy use in a brick building with next to no signal and in/out of various wireless networks during my work day and still go home at 40%+ battery. Now i'm good to get home before the battery alerts start, and it powers off shortly after. But it's so much smoother now that I think it's a good trade-off for the time being.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
What governor are you using? Maybe switching will help.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jwm1986:
Mostly default, "ondemand" and "deadline" scheduler. I vaguely remember using "smartassv2" and "sio" and getting the same basic results. I'll swap and give it another go.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Try lagfree or interactiveX, it may fare better for you. I'd recommend lazy but it's not in the ics test build.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ChuckFarley:
I've been using lagfree with good results.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kxs783kms:
If I'm on a rom that has the stock framework of Gingerbread with Sense, would I still be able to use the latest 3/21 or do I need the latest 2.6.35.14 Gingertiny 3/11? In the OP it has 3/21 - ICS+GB and it is kind of throwing me off. Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ChuckFarley:
If you're running a sense ROM, you'll need a sense specific kernel. They're listed out by platform on the incredikernel site.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Correct, none of the incredikernel releases should be used on any Gingerbread Sense ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kxs783kms:
Got it. Thanks for the clarification.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jwm1986:
Is anyone else getting lock-ups while on the charger? Did it twice last night to me. I am on the lagfree setting now. Battery life does seem to be better, will have to wait another day or two to really know.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I haven't personally run into that issue, no. But I also don't need to charge my Inc that often due to the fact that the cell radio is off and it sleeps most of the time.

I'll start with the basic questions:

1. Are you overclocked?

2. Are you undervolted?

3. Can you re-create this issue on a different kernel?

4. Which version of the kernel (I'm sure it's test 7 as you're running the CM9 ROM which requires a kernel with HWA)

5. Which ROM? (I'm guessing CM9 a4 though).

For item 3 I'd suggest try to flash the kernel that comes with the ROM if you can or use the tiamat kernel that supports hardware acceleration. Monitor it for a few days before saying the kernel causes it.

My only guess is that the fastcharge tweak may have issues on ICS or your charger may be bad. Other than that, I'm confident nothing else in the kernel would be causing a lockup.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
This one is the same as test7 but I wanted to add the lazy governor to this one and I think test7 has been stable enough to be moved to a beta state. Link below:

Edit: Ok we should be good now. Original link didn't have working wifi but that's fixed.

Incredikernel-ICS-HWA Beta1
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruggerxpunk:
If you can recall, I had an issues in the past with Test7 and video playback.

Then I flashed CM9a4 clean and installed test7 with no issues.

Today I started having video issues, and thought it was only regarding video file types: .m4v

After playing a bunch of different videos, this is what I've noticed:

- The glitch was affecting .m4v file types.

- The glitch affects some .3gp file types videos, but does NOT affect others.

I will upload a video I shot of my phone. The first video that plays on my Dinc is a .3gp that plays just fine. The second video is another .3gp that is garbled.

NOTICE that when I turn my phone to landscape, the video corrects itself for a second, then goes back to being screwed up.

http://youtu.be/yWkzhv2y-MI
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jwm1986:
1. No

2. No

3. Certain other ones of course... But it doesn't happen with any of the current stable releases.

4. test7

5. CM9 a4

I will reflash the ROM and get the "stock" kernel back for testing. With lagfree my battery life is for sure way better btw. Also, I don't use fast charge if that matters.

Don't feel like i'm pointing my finger at you saying it's the kernel causing everything. I'm just stating my experiences and trying to help if I can.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
Ok, so that makes me think that the current hardware acceleration implementation is not complete. it may be the way these videos are coded that some work and others don't. But I tested the same video on three kernels (stock,tiamat,and incredikernel test7) and had the same issue.

Do those videos work fine on say, AOKP?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Ruggerxpunk:
I haven't used aokp in a long while. And my nandroid backups don't work so I don't really wanna flash and flash back and start all over :/

The thing is that even the video that WORKS now, it DIDNT work last time when I reported issues. Its like there is no rhyme or reason. (Though with programming I know there always is.)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Shano56:
using hwa beta 1 and CM9 and experience a few random freezes/reboots. max freq set to 1036mhz and using smartassv2. anyone use anything that doesn't give reboots?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] omniatic:
128/1075 with SAv2. No troubles.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlokos:
1113/128 and lazy governor with no issues. I also have my voltages set to min 800 and max -50. Great battery on CM9.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Shano56:
just did a full format and enabled s-off. perhaps it will work better for me now
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dbrits:
Experienced the issue where the phone froze and did a soft reboot when disconnecting/connecting charger. Running the 3/21 kernel with the smartassv2 governor on the unofficial CM9 (alpha 4).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I will see if Chad can review these as I scanned and didn't see anything particularly kernel related around the reboot.

Try running stock a few days and see if you get reboots. I want to see if it's a ROM issue as I haven't heard issues with this kernel on any other ROMs.

Also, you're running an hwa incredikernel beta/test as it's got a build date of 4/20 and it says hwaccel. Not possible for 3/21 to work on that ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dbrits:
Sounds good. Hopefully they're able to assist in pinpointing or ruling out a potential issue.

Overall, I've had great luck with this kernel. Even though I've had reboots, they're quite few in number, so I'm a bit loathe to switch to stock and chance more reboots. I'll try to switch to stock this weekend when I'm not as busy and the (potential) reboots won't be as bothersome.

That being said, I did run AOKP ICS (milestone 4) several weeks ago and the freezes and soft reboots while connecting/disconnecting the charger happened more than sixty percent of the time. After a week's use, I became fed-up with the reboots and I switched back to CM7.1. I do know for a fact that the rom employed the stock kernel. I know it's not the same as running the stock kernel on the unofficial CM9 that I'm presently running, but I thought it worth mentioning.

Ergh. *facepalm* Thanks for pointing that out. I have no recollection of not flashing 3/21. I'm glad I managed to flash the right one. :rolleyes:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Shano56:
got another freeze/reboot. pretty sure i didnt see HTC splashscreen this time, only cyan bootanimation

anyways heres kmsg and cat. I forgot I didnt have terminal emulator so i had to defrost that before taking logcat, so ignore the end :P
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
I looked at the logcat and didn't see anything in the last_kmsg, so:

Reflash ROM and kernel after doing a full wipe (format system in mounts and storage and data/factory reset from main menu is sufficient).

Restore data for apps that you need to have data for. Or even try to re-create with fresh install of ROM and kernel and no apps.

Also, I forgot that logcat would be useless after a reboot. Try to grab one though during normal use.

Ok, before you try all that. Power down your phone fully and then after powering it on, grab a last_kmsg after the next unexpected reboot. The first part of the last_kmsg is not there so I can't even see a reboot in the log.
