SOD errors

I am not anywhere near where you guys are as far as developing kernels, ROM's, etc and I respect everyone that can do this and does it for us that not only like to tinker a bit, but also wants to get the most out of our toys.

That being said, I am trying to keep up with the beta's of ROM's and kernels as much as possible, and I don't mind screwing around with my TF101 and wiping, restoring, etc. The issue I see right now is that when I am using a ROM with stock kernel, everything is cool. I get ok performance, and basically no SOD's or very few. When I install a different kernel, that all changes. My tablet gets warm, even running at 1200, 1400, etc. At 1600 using default voltages and interactive governor, it becomes very unstable and that is fine. At 1400, the instability decreases a bit but the SOD's do happen quite a bit (once an hour). I have read that the SOD's are due to Asus's kernel, but how can that be when the stock kernel basically eliminates the SOD. Is it because as we overclock, the vulnerabilities are multiplied? I am currently running AOKP 2.0, using stock kernel and have had no problems all day. I installed this kernel and kept it at 1000 and still had SOD's to the point of it being maddening. I have had the best luck with 11b, and 14 is the same as 13 as far as SOD...

I don't want to come off as a whiner or someone that is an ass, as that is not what I intended. I just want to know how to help as much as I can.

thanks for listening!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rmangual:
Having issues with test14 with any 3d game. Game loads after 10 seconds the game crashes. Reverted back to test 13 and no issues. By the way running rooted stock rom. Hoping you guys look into this issue.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ngherappa:
What is the best "test" for revolver 4.0 rc1 with ics?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dgcruzing:
ZP,

Understand your frustration, but it's been said before, from early days.

Each machine is ever so different, bit like the miracle of the human being.

Which has got to be maddening for any of the developers.

You just have to try and then settle on what is good for your piece of equipment.

Mine is stable on 1500-1600 on both 11b &. 13.. Been on 13 OC @1600 all week.

ROM is stock rooted.

For me and my little beast, and this seems to be the mix..
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] kensikora:
I do always leave an SD card in the dock. I guess I'll give it a shot without it. To be honest, I don't really use that SD card much anyway, so I won't really miss it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ferparedes:
In my case I have an sdcard but inserted in the tablet itself. I will try removing it (unmounting it should be enough, shouldn't it?) and testing.

BTW every night I've left the tablet in the dock over night it will wake up in SOD. Last 2 nights, though I left it OFF the dock and it didn't SOD. So it could have something to do with the dock itself.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dragonfire353:
ya, SD card in the dock I get a SOD nearly every time it goes to sleep, since I removed it after reading that post I haven't had a single one, no problem with microsd in the tablet though
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] guevor:
New update

Test4 add support to lowering the voltage.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
Gonna flash test4 right away!

TESTED on 1.5mhz increased to +25mV, reboots on 1st try running antutu

Here's my antutu score.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Caramel:
Hi !

I've tested the "test 3" :

Work well at 1540, but a little laggy.

Freeze at 1600.

Testing "test 4"

Good job ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] guevor:
I'm using 1.4Ghz with 1175mv (-25mv) and give me antutu 6500+. For me it's stable.(stabilitytest passed)

Tomorrow will try to revise the clocks on 1.5Ghz and elevate the voltage on 1.5Ghz and 1.6Ghz since now can be lowered after boot.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Caramel:
How do you setup the mv ? No-frills dont have any option ?

Do you suggest another CPU controler ?

I forgot, "test 4" ils more laggy than "test 3"
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
I used System Tuner Pro... everything is in there...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Caramel:
Ok i'll try, thx ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] letsgophillyingeneral:
Just flashed Test3 and it fixed the USB port issue I was running into with the other custom ICS kernel.

One question - my kernel version says 2.6.39.4-g6e7749f-dirty

livux@Tragon #22

Is that correct?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] GrijzeGeest:
Same here with Test 3

Which is running great till now btw.

Update: unfortunately Sleep of death overnight
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] brando56894:
I've been waiting for an OC ICS Kernel, thanks! I'll check this out when I'm home later tonight.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] hachamacha:
Hi -

Did you change the default voltages at all from test3 to test4? I understand that I could change them myself now, but wanted to know what they were before you'd done Test4 and before I install it.

Thanks,

H
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] tegezee:
6012 in antutu with test 4 clocked at 1.5 gov set to ondemand (system tuner pro) stable and fast great work man already thanked you since the first test...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] philburkhardt:
FYI: Just wanted to confirm that I have Test 4 running on AOKP and everything is working great, including wifi. Currently oc'd at 1504.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gunz.jones:
This is working awesome. No reboots. The only problem is plants vs zombies will not play right on stock, modified, cna, aosp or aokp. It doesn't like tegra 2.....Everything else is smooth and responsive. Good job.

Sent from my 1.64 ghz ARHD TF101
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
Day 2 on test4 @ 1504

No crashes.. battery is minimal...

Question on Kernel Version: Do you really mean livux@Tragon #26 or Linux :p

You may now change Dirty to Sparkling silver... lol
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] psyk974:
No wifi on cyanogenmod 9. Can you insert driver in this kernel please ?

Thx for your dev, my tf101 run to 1400 MHz, no freeze, no reboot !
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] alizafar:
Confirmed working on ARHD Current Clock 1.2 Ghz So far No issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ricardopvz:
If you want this kernel on my rom, download it from the link in my thread
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
So far, so good...

Uptime so far on test 4 is over 10 hours, with just over 8 hours in deep sleep and no reboots or SODs. Using 216 min and 1640 max on interactive.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Caramel:
Second day with test 4 ... Always on ARHD 3.1.0.

I discover a strange thing under antutu, higher is the frequency, lower is the frame rate.

For example, the test with the knights at 1604 i've 22 to 28 fps, at 1400 i've 24 to 32 fps.

Another strange thing, testin 1400 to 1604 MHz the antutu score is only between 6500 and 6800 ...

1400 MHz is the better setting at this time.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ppzoid:
I reproducable don't get the opengl errors with revolver rc1 kernel. I'll stay with this one for the time being. Thanks for your work anyway.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
The reason why they call it "test".

choose the best one suitable for your TF.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ngherappa:
Sorry, i instal with cwm, test11B..i see on the kernel information That i have 2.6.39.4....dirty Livux @tragon, it's ok?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
its ok...

also try test14... :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gkillerx:
Dude check your pm :)

Sorry for the off post but the notification here on XDA are crep imo

btw (to keep it a little on topic)

I haven't had a reboot since the minute TEST14 was out. Running ARHD
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Reefius:
I'm having 2 issues with this kernel:

1) When I connect an external USB keyboard, my TF hangs and I need to long press the power button to reboot it

2) HDMI switching between crop and scale mode is broken, TF is always in scale mode

I reverted back to stock kernel and don't have these issues anymore. Tried test 13 and 14 kernels, both having the above issues.

It would be great to have a kernel where only the reboot issue has been fixed, for those who don't need the other features like overclocking.

Anyway, I think you're doing a great job with your test kernels Guevor! ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] kistigun:
I am getting SOD`s on test14
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
Check your cpu controllers (if any) and set stable frequencies (1000 - 1200mhz)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] zosopage:
No SOD since removing SD card from dock
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] colinleeds:
Wifi doesn't turn off when screen goes off. Kernel problem?

ARHD 3.2.0 test 14
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] chrisgto4:
Check wifi sleep policy settings
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Brazooka:
With ICS stock firmware and kernel I was having a lot of reboots.

After flashing guevor test13 kernel my TF101 (B60) is rock solid and stable (even @1.6GHz). No problems with the dock (B60) also...

Thank you guevor. You've done the job.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] colinleeds:
Gone back to test 13 and it's working again. Kernel problem it is (probably).
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] warlord234:
Test 13-14 was "Rocked" for 2 days. Now SOD comes back 3 times today!!!

ARHD 3.2.0 1.4 MHz
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] antond57:
I'm on Megatron 1.0.3, with kernels 12, 13 and 14 no reboots but several SOD's a day.

Kernel 11b is the the most stable kernel so far for me , reboots, no SOD's.

I'm using the default clocks, 316 - 1200 and the Interactive governor.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] atomic339:
Can I use voltage control to set cpu?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Salvestro:
Thanks for this wonderful work!

All work fine. Only a bug: the tablet turn off in standby. Why? It's normal?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] chappatti:
I agree. Overclocking is hit-miss with ICS. I don't know if just having OC ABILITY in kernel changes it, or ACTUALLY overclocking after flashing makes it unstable. If the kernel oc is "fixed" then it maybe a bigger problem.

My 2.5 cents......

Thanks, anyways.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] karapoutsoglou:
after many days of hard work in the tablet with the dock of course (office jobs,editing pdfs,720 p movies and more than 600 apps on it) i can only say

YEAHHH BABY,THIS KERNEL ROCKS
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] antond57:
That is not normal, this is a Sleep Of Death.

After the reboots this is big problem also of the ICS kernels for theTF101(G)

I'm facing with kernels 12 - 14 the SOD's too, but with 11b not.

Please try 11b kernel and let me know the result.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] atomic339:
So what about voltage control app? I install it and it seems work.

Can I use this app or only cpu frills?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] kensikora:
So I removed the SD card from the dock, and so far, after about a full day, I haven't had a single SOD. This is incredibly promising.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ngherappa:
I install test 11B and allora work perfetto, but how do i change and set clock?

But is possibile to install voodoo sound on this kernel?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] chappatti:
I dont think any kernel actually supports Voodoo Sound ON ICS. If you have Voodoo Sound Plus, then supercurio has released an ICS beta that works without kernel support. You have to install the Plus and do a license check for the beta to work.

I am a very big follower and user of Voodoo Sound. If I may, I think the price of the Plus app is worth every cent. AND THE BETA WORKS !!

Good Luck !!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] chocograph:
Hi

sorry i havent read all the post in this thread it just i tried test14 with wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache from CWM recovery on revolver 4 ics rc1 the wireless cant connect it will always stuck at requesting ip and then give up.

I have seen many people recommending this kernel, does this problem only happen to me or is there anybody else having this problem ?

Thank you for your answer
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Danzano:
For revolver use 13 13b or 11b i don't think 14 is playing nice with a few roms/tf101's
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
I can confirm SOD on test14... running ARHD 3.2.0

My TF has been fine all the time from test 1 - 13, from Revolver to ARHD...

guevor has something to fix on his amazing test14...

we have to wait til he comes back .... :rolleyes:

meantime, back to test13
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] kxnzxmori:
You can use voltage control. It shouldn't be a problem. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] devilpera64:
Guevor any news? :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] guevor:
Yes, just go out of test15

It has taken longer than before, partly because I was preparing the travel, partly because I wanted to go more slowly and with more tests.

I've been doing many tests and work for me, including devices using USB, SD card reader and suspend with a sd card inserted.

Other than that, some fixes I hope to improve stability a bit more. In terms of performance, all I can say is that to me was taking 90 seconds to boot and now it does at 78.

Hope it works well (odd numbers so far have worked well :)), because until the end of next week I will not touch the computer (from the tablet I can not compile the kernel :()
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] RaymanFX:
Can confirm ervery single USB device is now working with test15 :P

Great work mate ! Iwas trying to solve problems myself and build your kernel from source, but I only managed fixing USB, you did much more !

And btw, you can compile on your tablet ;) . Just include all needed cross compile commands in your PATH and do it using a terminal emulator. i did this once on my Sammy Galaxy 3.

Or chroot linux and vnc to it. I think wyse pocket cloud is the best solution, gives the best performance for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Danzano:
Hope you have an awesome trip and tell us if all goes well :D

thank you for the new kernel downloading now to try

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Test15 is amazing honestly if you work better when your relaxed I can't wait to see your kernels after the trip!!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] atothis:
Come on guevor, seriously? You did a brilliant work, but now just take a break off your pc, and enjoy your trip! ;)

I'm going to try ver 15 :)

Thanks!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
guevor thanks for the new test15...

Have a nice trip..

wish I could send my private jet for your trip.. lol :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Reefius:
USB is working fine now, no more hangs when I connect my external keyboard. The only issue I'm still having is the HDMI switch not working. It doesn't matter if I select crop or scale mode, the HDMI output will always be scaled. But that's an issue I can live with :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jef_k:
Grevor,

Pay attention that Test15 doesn't work with CPU Spy. CPU Spy tell that state is not readable due to a custom kernel.

Regards
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] cholywell:
Works for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] GrijzeGeest:
Test 15 works fine here also with cpuspy, try to reset the timer in cpuspy and do a reboot.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dragonfire353:
If by fix the SD card you mean fix the SODs when having the SD card in the dock and letting the transformer go to sleep while inserted in the dock I still get SODs... other than that it's great!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
@jef_k

CPU spy works fine on test15 here

check if you have cpu controller installed..

this might solve reboots
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jef_k:
Ok... That's works.

Not by doing a timers reset but with a reboot.

Sorry for the wrong information. And thanks for the helps.

V15

Smooth as butter...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ppzoid:
V15 works very fine so far. No more opengl errors, no reboots or freezes. Thanks very much.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Sharpe351:
v15 working great. No issues to speak of. (Didn't have any to start with)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Koserman:
Can confirm SD in dock causes SoD on test 15 every time it sleeps without fail. Removing SD card fixes the problem immediately. Thanks for the awesome kernel! So fast!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] linuques:
Yep, can confirm that. Dock + SD = SOD

Other than that, no problems. Back to 11b.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dgcruzing:
Just a side note..

It used to be Dock+SD card = batt drain on previousRoms/kernels.refer to Roach for more info, as it was a well documented bug.

sent from yet another MikG HTC Evo
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Sharpe351:
I'm using the dock and SD card. No issues. Running all day. Does changing the SD to another card resolve issue? I have a 16GB SD card in the dock.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] cholywell:
The SD card issue appeared to be fixed when I first flashed test 15 earlier today but I just docked it again and the SOD issue is back when docked with the SD card. I'm using a Lexar class 4 16g SDHC card.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Sharpe351:
Hmmm... Then maybe the build.prop changes I made prevent this from happening. I'll post them up when I get a minute.

*edit* try adding the following lines of code to the build.prop and let me know if you still have SOD.

ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1
pm.sleep_mode=2
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ambertx:
Test 15 for me on new install of Revolver 4 stops Windows 7 from detecting and installing drivers for MTP, also can't manually install MTP drivers. ADB drivers install and work fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] j3tt3:
Same issue here after I format my desktop Win 7 Ultimate.

I have been trying install MTP drivers for ages.

but my laptop and other pc still ok.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ambertx:
I just reverted to Test 14, works fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gil80:
Will there be a version that supports Voodoo sound?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jef_k:
Voodoo Sound is already supported.

You have to use Voodoo Sound Plus and install the beta version for ICS given by Supercurio on the appropriate thread. Have a search on XDA.

Wifi hotspot problem

I'm on Megatron 1.0.4 with Guevor kerner version 15 (from http://www.xdafileserver.nl/megatron).

Giving / retrieving IP adres is fixed now and the Wifi client gives status connected.

But the Wifi hotspot don't pass the data through while 3G internet local on the Transformer is still working fine.

It seems that ICS or the kernel don't bridge or route the internet data to the

3G adapter.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gunz.jones:
Try using WiFi tether and choose the routing fix. It's a known issue on a few devices with ICS.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ricardopvz:
It is working for me.

Do this test:

Download paw server from play store to your tab

Turn OFF wifi and 3G and turn wifi ap ON

run paw server

Connect your client to the tab

insert the address shown in paw server in the browser on your client and tell me if it works.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] DroidRevenge:
Just a question.

Could be this tied that prevents my TF to conenct with my phone on wich is running WIFI TEETHER?

With HC it was working well...

10x
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] pappiedappie:
Seemed to be the solution in my case. No SOD for this moment. If it comes back i'll report this here. No wake up with mouse, only with the power button and/or opening the tablet.

Using "test15" in combination with Revolver 4.0.0. RC1 rom. Dock + SD card (only 512 MB ;) )

:( after waiting for a longer time, SOD is back.........
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] antond57:
No.

In the meantime I'm using an old Phone (HTC HD2 running CM7.1) als a Wifi hotspot/Access Point. My TF connects without any problems to this Phone and internet access is working fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] michd2:
Really happy with the last kernel15, using these kernels since 12. They're working very well! I haven't experienced a random reboot ever since, also no SOD...until today :(

I was using the transformer + dock + mouse (via USB). When the screen turned off I couldnt get it on anymore, only by (very) long-pressing the power-button and forcing a reboot. When I unplug the mouse the problem is gone btw.

Just tested using a USB-storagedevice. Same story. When using the eee-pad with dock but without mouse/storagedevice, its working like a charm. When plugging anything in the USB I'm getting a SOD

Getting no SOD when using a SD + dock + eeepad btw...

I'm on stock kernel + rogue CWM btw...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ppzoid:
Got my first shutdown on v15 whilst in deep sleep (me and the tf101). No other problems though. Works like a charm.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Hammerfest:
going by the SD SOD, the USB PC connectivity issues, and now your report of dock usb sod... im going to have to think that something kernel wise that deals with USB/Proprietary port (and theirfor everything down the line like the dock, the sd on dock, and ofc, the usb on the dock), there has to be an issue somewhere... also from reports in ROM threads about it as well

lets hope OP can figure it out... or tell us what kind of error's from log or dmsg we need to collect for him to resolve this issue (or what combo works fine in HC or older kernels..)

either way... still a great kernel except the USB/AsusPort issues!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] antond57:
After installing and the setting profile to "Nexus" Wifi hotspot is working fine now!

after deinstalling then app it still working!

your are right it is a setting anywhere to enable the router funtionality.

Hi Richard,

The above steps/test performed and gets a small welcome screen of the paw web server. Thus no problems, this is working fine.

But the tip of a post before was the solution, to set anywhere the router option on.

After installing "Hotspot and USB Tether (Lite) by SVTP", setting the profile to "Nexus", the Wifi hotspot is working fine now!

After deinstalling the app, rebooting the tablet, it's still working!

Thus it is a router/bridge function setting anywhere.
