Uploaded test17c

Reduced consumption if you use a microsd all the time (like me).

Also changed the configuration of bcmdhd module as ricardopvz requested. Only affects to roms that use that module.

Also there are usb serial changes that may affect modems. Please test it.

I'll see what I can do with the frequencies, but to add more frequencies I have to check all the tables to not introduce problems.

About 17b be slower than 17, well, the changes are minimal and related to dock and how it is powered off and on. Can you explain better where the slowdown was? May be I introduced a problem unconsciously, but to be solved I need to know where is it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] linuques:
Have been using tests 17 and 17b for a few days, and no SODs anymore. With SD in the dock and microsd, Megatron rom.

Maybe a slightly increased consumption. Will try 17c and report back.

Thanks for all the work, guevor.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] pappiedappie:
Let's give 17c a try...for now I'm verry happy with 17b. For the first time in weeks the TF101 woke up when I opened the tablet. No SOD or RR the last 36 hours. Hope it stays that way

Using Revolver 4.0.0 RC1, with dock and SD all the time
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jkir4n:
anyone tried 17c with 3g modem ?

Sent from my Transformer TF101
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Danzano:
That's the only reason I suggested 1590 because i thought it would not introduce to many problems but i see your point and if more frequency's mess with the kernel then im happy with 1.5ghz stable :D

17b my wake up time etc seemed the same as 17 but in the ui etc it seemed a little slower on wake up than 17 for me

I will try 17c now as i use my 16gb micro all day every day
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Danzano:
Add to OP?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] devilpera64:
I was thought if you can set on "interactive" governor a better scaling on other freqs (not only 1700 to 1200, but also on intermediate - as for below 1000) not to add more other steps :) but today we can reach intermediate only using Ondemand...this problem weren't on old HC Blades kernel :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
TF hunged while using Quadrant on test17c at 1640mhz. :confused:

I need to figure out where is coming from..
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] w.laugs:
With test17 no more SOD for 24 hours with SD (32GB) in dock, it goes much faster into deep sleep.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Nascar Dog:
Which version of Test17 ?

a, b or c
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gkillerx:
Very first problem i noticed on this kernel. When savely disarming the mircosd and reinsert an other one it shows that there are no files on then i checked in settings and settings crashed so i restarted butit hang on the shutdown window thingy had to hold the power button....
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mattmanwrx:
Hi, after a reboot the governor reverts back to interactive... please see screenshot... anyone else have this problem?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] cspiby:
You're changing the kernel too frequently, by the time I've got something useful to report you've already moved in to another version.

For what its worth, test17 hasn't fixed the SODs in my Transformer :(

I dont have a dock and I dont use the microsd socket.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] devilpera64:
On 17b Cpu Spy seems not working propely...it show me a message where Kernel can't give governors infos..can someone confirm that?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] -miska-:
Hi,

let's start with many thanks for your work. I appreciate it and I like what are you doing.

Now to what I would like to ask you... I was checking github and the last commit there says Test13. Could you please push the latest stuff? Why do I need it? Well, I have few extra features I like to have in my kernel (xfs, hpfs, ti serial, ...) that are probably not generaly usefull, but I like to have them. I could use stock sources, but I like stuff you have done, so I would like to recompile kernel with your patches and few my touches to the config ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Alakhai:
I am using 17b and it cpu spy seems to be working fine, maybe try and uninstall/reinstall?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Gary13579:
Was using 9b for ages as it worked great. Saw 17b added new changes from ASUS, including GPU tweaks, which I was hoping fixed an annoying GPU memory leak I've ran across ever since upgrading to ICS. Updated last night, went to sleep with tablet at 15% and dock at 0%. I plugged it in, closed it. 12 hours later I grab it off the charger and the tablet is still at 15% but the dock is at 100%.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] drakal:
HDMI fail

I connect my tabs in HDMI to my TV, after deep sleep when i wake up tabs, screen freeze and i have to reboot with power+vol down.

No udervoltage, 1.2Ghz
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] devilpera64:
I've installed an App called "transformer tweaks" found here..maybe those tweaks have broken CPU-Spy reading..
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jef_k:
I have the same problem. It appears only when dock is connected. Since test 15.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] DammedKiller:
Could you pass me the link where you found that app? I´ve been searching it for long but I cannot find it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Nascar Dog:
What's wrong with Interactive?

What's the best setting and why?

I use No-frills CPU Control and it seems to work very well with Interactive and Noop.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mattmanwrx:
I found the scaling was a bit better with ondemand, but have gone back to interactive anyway, as it elminates a tiny bit of lag...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ebioman:
Great kernels, congratulations!

I found one little flaw though. Lately I was running 15 which was great without dock, no SOD or whatsoever. With the docks I experienced some trouble and decided therefore to give 17c a try.

17c works pretty well with the dock but an old "friend " appeared again - muting of sound, which can only be solved by rebooting.

Any advice, are a or b different in any regard to this potential problem?

cheers
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
The difference is found on the first post. You need to test with your TF with your own settings. Might behave well or not so well.

Test17 - Different SOD fix, updated with 9.2.1.21 asus source and others.

Test17b - Small modification to try to handle better when can not suspend and when he wakes up alone.

Test17c - Reduced consumption if you use a microsd all time (like me). Changes in the configuration of bcmdhd. Usb serial changes may affect modems.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] boonkui:
Test17c is almost perfect for me. Thanks Guevor!

Config: Revolver 4.0 RC1. MiniSD in tablet all time. No SD in dock.

Observation: No RR. No SOD. Great deep sleeping. No random screen light-ups.

One issue: With SD in dock and WiFi on, TF took more than 10 mins to get into deep sleep. This getting-into-sleep effort costed about 2% of dock battery.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gkillerx:
After the first problem that changing an microsd i had a second problem. I was typing an email and out of the blue the tablet hang and didn't responded to anything..... i have no dock btw. And i always wipe cache and davlik cache.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rufik:
17x builds are based on 9.2.1.21 kernel sources, so I assume that future builds will be also .21 based?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] warlord234:
Still got battery drain in 17C.

Now I can use my tablet only 4 hours!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] DroidRevenge:
And what app/module/WHATEVERELSE is that drain your battery?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Danzano:
Don't know what happened in 17c but it froze up on me a couple times and had to hard reboot so back to 17 for me at the moment
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jef_k:
The same for me... Back to 17b.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] devilpera64:
i'm playing with voltages and i set up 1.375mV for 1.704Mhz...ultra-stable and now i can rest on performances for much more time...tablet doesn't heat and battery is very very durable!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] woti23:
maybe it depends also on rom / kernel / tf101 hardware diffs

17c (and also 17b) works very well for me

had a few spontanous wakeups first, that went away after i freezed everything /system/app/My*
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Puzzlegirl:
I'm getting on very well with 17c with SD card inserted and dock connected at all times. This is the first time I haven't wanted to hurl my Transformer out of the nearest window for ages!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Lakitu7:
I rooted my TF basically just to use your kernel, because I was sick of the choice between SoD or wake lock. Using test17 I've excellent power consumption. It goes to deep sleep right away and comes back right away. Leaving it on overnight uses only a few percent. I don't have a dock, and I do leave a microsd card in most of the time.

I've seen screen tearing in recent apps and the youtube app once or twice, but this is entirely worth it, and people have mentioned it here before. You've done a fabulous job here, and thank you so much for succeeding where Asus has failed. It's made the user experience incredibly more fulfilling.

The only other issue I have is sound through my (mono) bluetooth headset being incredibly garbled and unusable. Would that potentially be a function of the rom (rooted stock 0.17) or the kernel (your test 17) or an incompatibility from using your kernel based on the 0.21 source with an 0.17 rom?

I would test whether or not BT works with the stock kernel (I hadn't used it yet when I flashed yours), but apparently the CWM backup I made didn't back up the kernel, and nobody has made a flashable stock kernel available that I can find (without flashing a ROM as well). It would be incredibly helpful for testing and bug reporting if you (or someone else) provided a CWM-flashable stock kernel so that we could easily switch between that and yours to confirm what bugs are in your kernel versus in upstream stock.

[edit] All testing is without modifying clock speed or even installing any such program.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] farsight73:
Yea, I would love to have the 9.2.1.17 stock kernel just to test/compare something from this modded kernel.

If anybody can make a flashable zip for the .17 stock kernel would be great now..
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] finalhit:
currently on stock/rooted and test17c. i'm using default voltages and max speed of 1600. this only happened once, but i figured i'd report it..but when i woke up my TF, the wifi wouldn't active. i toggled it on/off and still wouldn't.

had to restart the TF get it back. again, only happened once though. otherwise, 17c seems pretty stable.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] theraffman:
This may have been answered but I'm not going to read through all the comments...

Maps was keeping one of my tablets from entering deep sleep, I froze google maps (I don't use GPS on my tab) now I drain about 2% overnight (8 hours) when it use to drain 30-40%.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] nuzbabu:
17c is great

guevor,

thanks. 14 hrs of stand by and battery is at 94%.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
I have noticed that charging was also suspended for quite some time on test17b... (green line on attachment -power and dock)

now I am going to try on test17c and will get back to report...

No SOD and RR...battery life was excellent!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
Stock kernel for 9.2.1.17

Here is a stock kernel compiled from Asus 9.2.1.17 kernel source. It is not a repackaged stock kernel, but a kernel built against the stock source with my running .config after flashing Revolver4 RC1, which uses the stock kernel. It should be the same as stock kernel, but with a different name. This is flashable from CWM as long as signature verification and other checks are turned off, otherwise it may complain about checksums, sigs, or something. I've flashed it on my device and can confirm it works and boots. I'll try to see later if I can extract and repackage the actual stock kernel from Asus ROM package.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47619656/stock_ics_kernel.zip
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Kasimodo:
Wrong post... Sorry
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Reefius:
Just had my first SOD since installing 17b, flashed 17c now and wiped cache + dalvik cache.

I did remove the TF from the dock for about 10 minutes and then put it back before I got the SOD. Is it possible this has anything to do with it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] airon11:
what about video play performance with this kernel?

i'd like to flash this kernel over the latest stock ics rom just to be able to overclock, because i need to read gopro video, recorded at 960p resolution.

with stock rom and kernel using mx video player playback is very slow and unacceptable.

i would expect a better performance with this kernel, but if someone had tried and can tell me if the improuvment is worth it it would be well accepted

thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] DammedKiller:
I am using Guevor 17c and I can play mkv 720pp videos with Bs player quite well.

Flash it and try!

Enviado desde mi Transformer TF101 usando Tapatalk
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] airon11:
even with stock kernel i can play mkv 720p, because they get hardware decoding.

the 960p video i'm talking about are software decoded, that's why are slower.

I'd like to know if someone tried already this configuration because for now my transformer is completely stock and i'd like to keep it this way, unless really needed for this video issue.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] :
having used stock for a while before I started mucking with the system, at this stage in the game, this kernel is MUCH more stable than stock, even if you don't use the O/C. I've been pushing it to 1700 for weeks now and I had maybe one incident where it froze up at all (at least on 17c, and that's because I accidentally left it under my pillow)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] linuques:
Dude, thanks for your hard work on this awesome kernel. Using test 17c without issues.

Is guevor the new Blades? lol
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] w.laugs:
I use MX player for 1080p, MX player uses HW decoding same for 720p. Plays nice and smooth.

Also when I switch to software decoding or software fast mode, its still playing smooth.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] airon11:
depends on the video compression...that gopro camera record in a codec not hardware supported by tf101.

anyway couple of days ago i updated to lates ics build and still no root on that, so need to wait to test this kernel
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] w.laugs:
When encoding video just choose simple profile, then it will play up to 1080p.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] airon11:
i can't decide in which way to encode videos in that camera..
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] w.laugs:
I cant play my AVCHD files from my Sony DSC-HX5V either, I have to convert them to 1080p MP4 format to play them.

Even when I record directly to 720p MP4 format, my Transformer cant play it, because it supports only simple profile. I think you have the same problem.

So the only thing left is to edit and save your movie in a compatible format.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wolvers69:
I was wondering about this too guevor, as I am also using the stock 0.17 rom. It's why I'm still on 16b. I'd like to try 17c but was worried about this possible issue with incompatibility.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
I am using Revolver4 RC1 rom with guevor 17c with no issues. This rom is based off of Asus's 9.2.1.17.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] finalhit:
if you upload a small clip, i can test it for you. or it maybe just as much effort to just flash the kernel and see for yourself. but really though, even if the playback performance isn't good enough, the stability of this kernel is definitely worth the 2 minutes it takes to flash it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] airon11:
thank you for your help, but i'm gonna try myself.

i didn't want to flash the kernel to not loose the ability to do ota updates..

anyway i'm on the latest update .21 and no root yet for that software version so i have to wait
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] tcolec540:
On the latest arhd. Flashed this kernal and my open vpn broke. The tun module is no longer compatible. Is there a way to fix said issue?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] tcolec540:
Nvm. Seems to have remedied itself.....???
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] FF666:
It's probably because Guevor has built in a artificial intelligence self repair tool! That's how awesome he is....
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] cdkizzle:
I'm a noob, I just flashed this on top of ARHD in CWM. That's all I have to do right?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jinwu57:
+1

I flashed test7 and so far(1hour) and it's been great so far. no reboots/sods.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] JerryGNYC:
Wipe cache and Dalvik cache before rebooting.

See edit: below... :P
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] CoopZor:
Alright, i'm sticking with 17c, seem to work very very well with my megatron rom.

OC to 1400MHz, up time like 40 hours.

Never before on ICS i was getting this stability.

Thanx Guevor ! :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Does someone expired this two problems?

1. 3G stops working and rebooting is the only fix. However it happens again after max. 30 minutes. It started to happen totally random. Reflashing didn't help.

2. I'm not able to upgrade to 17c. I tried redownloading (ca. 5 times from different devices), wiping cache, flashing stock kernel and try to upgrade from there. I always get stuck at the bootanimation or the "Android is upgrading" message.

I'm currently on Megatron 1.0.4

Edit: I could upgrade had to boot into recovery and then reboot the system again from there. Strange. I would've never found out if I hadn't coincidently clicked on "reboot system" instead of "Flash a zip".

The 10s power button reboot never did the trick. Strange.

Edit2: False alarm it froze in the app drawer and now it doesn't get pass the bootanimation. Going to check if 17 or 17b might work.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] mattiadj:
Sorry for ot but how can you have icons on the bottom??? And I can use uot kitchen to make my battery theme?

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] farsight73:
Tested your .17 kernel zip. Flashed successfull, booted and work as it should be.

But when I tried to flash .21 update zip via CWM. It still failed on verification..

I check the kernel name was named after you which might be the cause of verification failed during the .21 update process..

I'm on the same boat with you here. But I'm currently using the 17c and will report back here after some monitoring..
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
I don't really know. If you are trying to flash a stock rom, especially one that's not rooted, that may be the cause. I'm using a custom, rooted rom. If you are trying to have a stock rom, you may be able to find an nvflashable, non-rooted .17 rom and flash that, if you are B6O or below and then use some method to gain root and CWM and flash the .21 kernel from CWM. Also, which .21 update are you trying to install?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
Battery icon comes with Megatron + megatron parts.

@ farsight

to flash an UPDATE, you must have a stock 9.2.1.17 and flash the update .21.

RR & SOD

Hi,

yesterday evening i experienced SOD and then RR... after 1 week of "peace and love" with ARHD and this kernel finally these problems rise up again! :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gkillerx:
After a few freezes no reboot just frozen. Back to 17b
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
It also happens to me on 17c... but I insists...

wiped cache and dalvik... flashed 17c... reboot

wiped again.... flashed 17c... reboot...

hanging goblins just went away... now I enjoy 17c with no freezes, SOD or RR...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] guevor:
Sorry I can not reply to posts but I'm very busy this week, I guess in a few days back to normal.

It seems that in the 17c have introduced a problem, I think 17b did not have it, but perhaps the last good was 17.

I keep testing whenever I have a moment, trying to refine the suspend process because there are combinations that produce unwanted effects.

Whenever I get something that works, will upload for testing.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] darsej:
Running 17c ... I can notice occasional screen waking up while docked. No RRs or SODs so far, 12hrs +.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] finalhit:
Currently on 17c and my browser experience isn't as smooth as 16 [I skipped 17 and went draught to 17c] dunno if it coincidental though

uptime close to 40 hours, docked with USB external HDD plugged in, no SOD, and 99/50% battery... I think 17c is our winner here
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] kalkrishnan:
17c has been the worst for me

I had a freeze and restart, using Skype. Thought Skype was the issue, but had another freeze right when it was rebooting (undocked). Thought maybe Skype was still causing the issue, so uninstalled Skype to be sure. Then I had an SOD when docked. Today, I had a full freeze while browsing Pulse (had to reboot).

I am dropping back to 16b for now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] zdalin2003:
ugh, i was really hoping that 17c would've cured SoD's for me... I just got one today, after 50 hrs, while docked (i wasn't docked for quite a long time, and today i took my tf to work docked. It worked fine during the day, but when i got home, it was sod'ing. The only thing i can think of is changing wi-fi networks).

Sigh, waiting for the next version.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gsantovena:
I have been using test17c without RR since the day it came out. I'm using Megatron 1.0.4 ROM. Though I had one SOD after using some games like ShadowGun, Robotek and Temple Run. I have noticed that if I don't use any game, my tf101 runs and wakes without problems.

I have microsd connected all the time, I haven't tested without it.

Could be the RR and SODs related with the nvidia drivers? I have installed Samurai II: Vengance, and the intro logo graphic is bad.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Thing O Doom:
Have you Ever gotten a SOD without playing games, and is the SOD playing games repeatable, or just a one time thing?

Logo doesn't work for me either, btw, might be universal?
