First time user of your kernel Franco, flashed last night, all seems well and none of the issues that others have experienced.

Will feedback more in 48 hours :)
[HTC One X] verynuclear:
r8 is working very well with Trip Rom.

No problem at all.

Thanks

Mkay, playing a little with different recoveries!

Using latest "recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru_fixedadbusb.img" after fullwipe as reported the only issue i have is stuck on splash when cord is connected with r8!

Fash "recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru.img" stuck on boot is gone!

Flash r7 and make a nandroid restore of ic6.3.1 -> 2 times reboot -> no issues except the known!

then flash "recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru_fixedadbusb.img" -> flash r8 -> wipe cache/dalvik -> reboot ->

Optimizing Applications did not start!!

Facebook and Google+ causes FC and 20 Apps are Missing, also the containing Folders in Sense UI!

So we have a winner!

im sure its not a Kernel Problem, it looks like the latest USB Fix of recovery causes the data loss and FC Problems!
[HTC One X] rotsu:
Hi Franco,

I've been using your kernel since r5. ever since i upgraded to r8, i started to get a lot of FCs on many apps. I reverted to stock kernel and i still was getting FCs. I had to revert back to an old nandroid backup. Not sure what happened when i flashed r8, but i thought i should report it.
[HTC One X] njakobs:
Agree with this. When trying to mount drive to linux laptop phone crashes. On reboot number of apps are now install but missing and don't work.
[HTC One X] nbicho:
My feedback

I'm on IC 6.3.1 with twrp 2.1.6 recovery (usb mount) and upgraded from r7 to r8 with non repacked boot.img with the regular steps (fastboot erase cache......) and no issues at all, not on start up nor apps issues nor other issues whatsoever.

Great work Franco, thanks! :)
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
Weird, I'm using the same recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru_fixedadbusb since it was released and no such issues. I think the problem within something other.
[HTC One X] mach0boi:
I'm also using the recovery with usb mount fix and didnt encounter any kind of problems with r8. ;)
[HTC One X] nobnut:
It's much more likely to be people not using Franco's ramdisk (i.e. using a repacked boot.img). I believe it isn't anything to do with the latest recovery.
[HTC One X] geenyous:
Could you (or anyone else) please point me in the right direction to grab those logs?

Is "adb dmesg" enough (or is it "adb shell dmesg"??) or can I do something like "adb dmesg > blabla.txt" to have the output in a textfile, just like logcat?

When is it appropriate to use dmesg and when logcat?

Well, I am not too sure about the recovery being the problem, I am still on 5.8.3.1 and I lost all my homescreen widgets as well (including widgetsoid widget in status bar - though this is probably connected to the launcher). Luckily, it's only that, all the other apps still work, but it never happened before and I am not sure if it should...

Apart from the above and the always present flicker, all seems good so far, haven't tested much though, will do that later during the day.

Thanks for taking your time to clean the source!
[HTC One X] deagleone:
what rom ur using?

to believe means not to know ;)

this is reproducible for me, sometimes i need two try´s but after erase cache and dalvik android did not optimize apps after start, and if that happend there are a lot of fc and missing apps (not the same apps on every tryout)

so the truth will be somwhere between the combination of ROM/Kernel/Modules/Recovery/olderKernelModules...
[HTC One X] nobnut:
WOW... you must be an expert LOL. You left 'weather' out of your list.

EDIT: I see you are using Insertcoin. I bet you are using a repacked kernel as well.

I saw baadnews' post in his thread about repacking his ramdisk as init.d scripts were broken in Franco's. All I can say is that he is totally wrong.

EDIT 2: Here and here
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
the screen flicker is really unbearable at all brightness levels. battery seems to be the same as r6, still cant totally judge. and the phone tends to heat alot when watching youtube or playing any video. i cant really see a big difference from stock. anyways great kernel.
[HTC One X] Daekin:
ARHD ramdisk is safe to use. I checked the sources for differences. ;) For ARHD I recommend using repacked version.
[HTC One X] xcesco89:
i've flashed latest R8 on Leedroid 6.4.0 and all works fine for me. no data loss, no flickering, all seems to be ok! i'm using latest official CWM ( without USB mount fix). thanks for your hard work franco!:D
[HTC One X] vegetaleb:
The flickering people are complaining about only occured when flashing this kernel or also before?
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
Right after about 10 minuts watching youtube:

- cpu temp - 46,5C

- battery temp - 32C

Is this hot? What about screen flickering I already forgot what it was... ;)
[HTC One X] xcesco89:
i never had flickering problems, luckily! :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] eyosen:
None of these problems happen. Neither does screen flickering even at the lowest setting. Lucky me I guess. Thanks Francisco.......

ROM: Energy

CWMR: recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-endeavoru_fixedadbusb.img

Kernel: R8

Ramdisk: franco R8
[HTC One X] damanrico:
The flickering screen should be fixed in the latest official HTC kernel, correct?

When can we expect HTC to release the source for that kernel so franco can implement the commits and changes?
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
lol, well when i first bought the phone, it had serious flickering issues, then .11 update rolled out and the problem was gone in a day. then i started flashing francos r-x and the flicker was back. i just cant handle the flicker it makes a 600$ phone look cheap. so i am on stock kernel now, and i cant notice any great differene between sock kernel and custom ones... what did u notice ?

---------- Post added at 10:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 AM ----------

also, which rom do u think is better, arhd 6 or leedroid 6.4? with this kernel in specific.
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
Yeah I've noticed the difference and wrote about it above. With r8 now I have completely lag free Sense. I love to be able scroll panels without any lags for example ;) And on my mind r8 definitely faster then stock.

I'm using Charmandar for now. Link in my signature.
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
are u using repacked version of francos?

and are u getting better battery life than stock?
[HTC One X] nobnut:
Don't repack using Charmandar.
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
No I flashed not repacked r8. What about battery life it looks for now not worse than I had on r6 - an average about 20 hours (3,5 hour screen on).
[HTC One X] lingxw:
To be honest I never had any screen flickering issues when using r8. I tried out different kernels and noticed that franco's gave a smoother feel when scrolling and lag free when running graphic demanding games. In terms of battery life its more or less the same as stock when the screen is turned on but it offers a better stand by time. I only lost about 1 percent of battery life overnight

Great work Franco! Its great to have you around ;)
[HTC One X] nimrodity:
Will change the kernel for now, the flickering is too disturbing.

It's not only on Grey like some people mentioned before the color doesn't matter

Did have it with bricked too but only very few times even noticeable
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
well i want to use the original kernel not the repacked, but i am using arhd and if i dont use the repacked version, i will lose all mikes tweaks and everything he did for the ramdisk and vice versa. so what do u guys suggest?
[HTC One X] nobnut:
Was Mike's ramdisk made to work with Franco's kernel?

Is Franco's kernel configured to work with his modules?

Seems like a no brainer to me... but it's up to you.
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
It's your own choice use mike's or franco's tweaks ;)

I've tried both variants - worked fine. But just with less performance when repacked.
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
alright then original kernel it is :) ..

thanks for ur help, and nobnut too

---------- Post added at 11:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 AM ----------

well mike uses stock kernel as his base kernel, and francos kernel works on all .11 versions or roms.

it just the ramdisk that will be changed..
[HTC One X] Goku80:
you are right friend. why repack a kernel with a ramdisk and lose the kernels tweaks. kinda pointless if you ask me. might as well stay with stock kernel and the added tweaks of ramdisk that the rom developer does for their roms.

hence why once i get my one x will not repack anymore as i find it that i lose out on the kernels tweaks no matter if i flash modules or not
[HTC One X] nobnut:
You don't have one already? :eek:
[HTC One X] Goku80:
it is in repairs. hopefully getting it tomorrow. hopefully that is:(
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
lol y is it in repairs ?

best luck man
[HTC One X] nobnut:
Good luck!

'Hopefully'. I hate that word. I heard it about 7 times yesterday. Every mobile phone shop I went into, I received the answer "Hopefully next week". To the question "When are you getting SIM free SGSIIIs in please?".

Bah.
[HTC One X] TAGTRAUM:
Franco, any chance fix Live Wallpaper Lag??...Or it's impossible till HTC fixed it in source??
[HTC One X] Goku80:
long story short. gap on the left hand side of the phone and dust under the screen and power button became loose

thanks mate.take it your going for the s3 then
[HTC One X] geenyous:
Easy fix for that, get rid of fkin sense...

It's a sense and not a kernel issue and probably one of the dumbest things I ever heard - you make an absolute beauty of a phone with a great cpu and camera, only to load your crappy, ugly software onto it which makes everyhting lag/load/stutter, giving you even bad reviews of the phone (search my posts in hamdirs thread for more info). At the same time the thing just flies if you desense your ROM and load Apex or Nova onto it. Only your standard 98% of all smartphone users won't do that and end up disapointed, why their expensive new phone can't even manage live wallpapers properly...

Sorry for OT.
[HTC One X] Bipin saspara:
Instructions:

1 - Enter this command: fastboot erase cache ----- okkk

2 - Flash the boot.img on fastboot with: fastboot flash boot boot—rX.img (replace X by the release number) ------ okkk

----- phone boots itself ( at this moment by your app #8) then i have to switch off and go to recovery menu

3 - Reboot to recovery from the fastboot menu (before booting to system for the first time) and flash the modules package

------ device restarts but it says installed version #1 ( by your app)

- download kernel modules and move it to sdcard

- reboot to bootloader

- fastboot flash boot boot—rX.img

- fastboot erase cache

- reboot to recovery

- flash kernel modules from sdcard

- reboot to android and enjoy

Btw if you want use mike's tweaks search for repacked boot.img

leedroid has got some tweaks by j4n in his rom, if i flash the original franco along with it, will i lose thsoe tweaks?
[HTC One X] mattman83:
Why don't you try it? Just have your stock boot.img handy in case it goes pear shaped, but 99.9% chance it'll be fine.

Tenho sido um fã do trabalho do show-p, mas uma vez que o que é nacional é bom! vou experimentar este kernel :cool:

Obrigado
[HTC One X] LittleMerc:
Hmm, over a night, the rom did quite well... At least it is scaling between 51MHz and 340MHz a lot during screen off period... The only problem I see is that when the screen is on, the cpu minimum scaling is always 340MHz as compared to stock where 51MHz is possible... Now heading off to work hoping it is stable and battery life would be wonderful... Will report back in the course...
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
Eheh, report back after you try it ;)

Well this is simple:

when using the companion core the device scales between 51mhz and 1,4ghz

when the device is using the 4 cores (even if most of the time its 1100 or 1010 (cpu0,cpu1,cpu2,cpu3, where each 1 means the cpuX is online, and 0 means its offline) it scales mostly between 340mhz and 1,5ghz.
[HTC One X] mike1986.:
I think companion core is max 500 mhz.

cpu0,1,2,3 separately can run at 1,5 ghz, but when all together are online, max speed is 1,4 ghz.
[HTC One X] anfozy:
is the kernel currently not compatible with arhd? i was stuck on htc boot logo aswel so i just went back to bricked for now
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
I'm not so sure. What makes you think its the way you described?
[HTC One X] JamesBarnes:
Daekin has repacked the Kernel and RAM disk for ARHD :)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25941446&postcount=7599

All credit to him.

Edit: Forgot to mention I have flashed it and it boots just fine :)
[HTC One X] SamStone:
I'm looking forward to the first kernel that can be overclocked.
[HTC One X] JamesBarnes:
Mind if i ask why?

Is it just a case of being curious to see how far you can push it?

I only ask because I have yet to see anything that seems to task the handset at all...

I think undervolting could be useful though...
[HTC One X] zizo-88:
please help me...

i was on stock 1.28.415.9 when i tried flashing this kernel.. i did all the steps exactly like in the guide.. i erased cache before flashing and i made sure that the boot.img name was written correctly.. but im stuck at the htc quietly brilliant screen.. i did a nandroid backup before flashing this kernel but restoring it is not working.. i tried clearing the cache again in fastboot and nothing i wiped davlik cache.. i even restored my backup again and yet nothing.. i dunno what to do please help me... i just wanted to get the most out of my new phone and didn't expect that this would happen to me..
[HTC One X] hiazn:
Did you flash the modules in CWM? (which is also part of the OP instructions)

i check by franco kernel app it shows installed version #1

is it right?

i have this problem what should i do?
[HTC One X] NickDunn:
Wrong with #1. install again pls. :)
[HTC One X] Bipin saspara:
do i always have to flash kernal module later. is it possible to flash boot-r8.img last? then it shows #8 version on my phone
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
u have to flash the boot.img first via fastboot

then flash the modules from recovery. thats the "original" way and its most safe to use
[HTC One X] ChefChaudart:
Problem this time

Hello,

I flashed all your kernels without problem, but this time, I get stucked at HTC ONE Logo ! :o

What can I do ?

Cheers
[HTC One X] eyosen:
I know in latest PKMN ROM Flasher, it

- removes existing modules first,

- flashes the new modules with adb

- then flashes boot.img in fastboot

So for their ROM at least it must be OK.

@MohamadAli: "Most safe" implies that the other way is also "safe" not as much. What are the risks here? Other than bricking your phone :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] X10@Germany:
why the f... did it wipe my data? :mad:

i came from r6
[HTC One X] henk_j:

[HTC One X] Bipin saspara:
why it is not possible to flash fonts? i tried for rom manager it does flash it but nothing change on phone.
[HTC One X] nobnut:
Why are you posting that here? It has nothing to do with the kernel.
[HTC One X] Supaiku:
Because mismatched modules could cause problems it's safest to flash the kernel, and then modules before boot. However, if you flash the modules in CW, and then reboot directly into fastboot, this shouldn't be an issues AFAIK, it's just not as convenient as booting to flashboot, from which it is easy to access recovery (whereas rebooting from CW would require holding the buttons again to get into fastboot). AFAIK, that would work, but be a pain, however just be on the safe side and KISS.
[HTC One X] airchie:
Glad it's not just me that's had this strange issue of app data being lost etc.

With regards to it being related to version of CWM, I'm using 5.8.3.1 is flashed by ROM Manager app.

I used it to flash all versions of Franco's kernel from r3 up to and including r7.

It was going to r7 I saw the issue and I don't remember doing anything massively different.

About to try a new ROM on my phone now. Anyone suggest any decent AOSP ROMs? I don't like sense...

Cheers :)

Since last night on r8 and had no problems untill now (it just happend one time)

when i locked my phone after watching a message the flashlight at the back turned on.

i had to turn off the phone before the light did go off.

am i the only one or are there more where this had happend?

ARHD 6.0.0

Franco r8 (not repacked) flashed the right way.

Thanks for the hard work Franco!
[HTC One X] osoelpeligroso:
R8 works like a charm! No issues,let's see how batterylife will be the next days.
[HTC One X] TeniusGG:
how do I put sweep2wake into it,Ilike it,also like your Kernel

or you can put it into your work

Thank you!!
[HTC One X] airchie:
Franco has already said the only way to get sweep2wake is to use another kernel that supports it. He doesn't intend to implement it. I think the reasoning was that it's likely to drain battery as it needs to keep the touch sensors active in sleep mode....
[HTC One X] Bunecarera:
No, sweep2wake has nothing to do with the battery.

But it is a key-feature of showp's kernel, so if you want it, use that one.
[HTC One X] nobnut:
Does it use gravity to work? Or maybe even centripetal force? No, it must use osmosis.

Of course it uses the battery... just a low level.
[HTC One X] Bunecarera:
No ****, smart-ass. That's not what I meant and you probably know it too...

Here is what Showp himself says about all the BS about batterydrain and sweep2wake
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
flashing the kernel over arhd, original non repacked.. hoping for the best.

Maybe a stupid question but why should I flash this kernel? What are the real and not subjective improvements?

[HTC One X] WayTooRowdy:

[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
Theres something called "Features" in the OP :) I would start there.
[HTC One X] ShyamSasi:
Any plans to add Samrtass V2 ?
[HTC One X] geenyous:
No need, we got nobnut... :D
[HTC One X] chortya:
I've seen the first post. A lot of features and words :)

Let me rephrase:

- what is the real impact on battery life - additional hour, 20 minutes, 10%?

- what is the performance impact in real life use cases or apps, not benchmarks?

- why wouldn't HTC engineers include these fixes in the stock kernel?

Or is everybody flashes just to flash and experiment :)?

I am asking because I use my phone as productive tool and I'm not ready to sacrifice stability for "features" that actually does not positively impact performance or battery life. Don't take it personally, you are doing great job, I'm just trying to sort out what is the optimal configuration in terms of kernel and rom combination.

thanks!
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
- for me it's about +15-20%

- it's a real performance increase

- I think you need to ask HTC
[HTC One X] hutzdani:
Its really really stable possibly the best kernel for the onex currently, no issues and have been using it since r4, flawless I flashed r7 went away for a week and not a single issue while away from a PC!

[HTC One X] twistedh:
Hey franco, been using the kernel since day 1 but my screen flicker has returned with r8...Any suggestions?
[HTC One X] hutzdani:
Is the ROM your running based on .11 ?

I don't think HTC have fixed the screen flicker anyway, it seems to be Placebo effect.

I have had .11 based ROM running for over two weeks with full brightness running at full while on charging for over 8 full charging cycles and still it flickers like a candle.
[HTC One X] twistedh:
All fully up to date, there was a noticeable difference after the latest patch but if has gone back to normal now
