These are great, if this could be done per release it'd help avoid a lot of questioning. Which ROM is best for battery with r5?
[HTC One X] hutzdani:
Kinda hard to tell you, depends on what apps you use what background services you use, too many variables.

However I run jdroid and r5 and have had a good 10 hours plus on medium usage ( a few photos and uploads 3x 5min calls and some email notifications and playing about an hour of music on headphones ) and had 60% battery at around 5pm since 8.30am
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
On my mind it in a large measure depends of user/rom/apps settings. I'm using ARHD6 + Advanced Power Menu + Battery% mod. Gmail (2 accounts), location services and social networks sync on.
[HTC One X] slvrarrow:
Okay great, cheers guys.
[HTC One X] techmatlock:
ARHD + Rom Cleaner. Try them all out and see what you like, but that's what I'd recommend to you.

I have now screen flicker on low brightness (didnt had this before) but i guess it will gone after some days of use (like HTC told us).

But hey, i didnt know this kernel instal a new 2500mAh battery to my phone lol my battery wont drop down ... thanks for that :)

Oh yes, about the speed of my phone now i will not write anything ... it is to perverse and im not sure do kids read on this thread :D
[HTC One X] Entreri:
Okay, after one day on r5 I'm experiencing some problems. 15 hours of battery life with 2h15 minutes of screen on time (stock kernel on ARHD got me like 4 hours) and awful flickering after my battery went below 10%. thought this was fixed with HTCs latest update (at least the flickering was almost gone on stock kernel), now it's way worse than when I bought the phone. Hope this will be fixed. Let me know if I can do anything to help you debug...

Same for me, I never had screen flicker problem. Now I have!
[HTC One X] minooch:
Hi everyone,

Just a quick apology for the issues that happen last night with my server. I'm stilling looking as to why it took an extended toilet break. & a thank you for anyone who posted a mirror. Was a shame that I caused some of you, to miss out on flashing Franco's awesome kernel.

Cheers,

Minooch

EDIT: I just found out that my host restarted the server - Apologies again
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
No problem, we still love you.
[HTC One X] Skolotaie:
Hi and thanks for the Hints,but the Problem is that i Relocked the Loader because i wanted to Flash the Latest RUU to get over the Issues.

I had the Phone Now On the Charger for Several Hours,but still the -30% Battery Problem.

If this still wont Go Away (Now try to let it Charge in Htc Stock Recovery) I Open it and Try to Give the battery a DIY Charge Hehe

interactive as governor?

ondemand never goes under 340 for me and i dont do automatic brightness. (and use the bravia option when installing) never had flickering problems. try to exclude some possible causes.
[HTC One X] benchallenger:
I also notice it doesnt go below 340mhz - any solution to this or does r4 go below?
[HTC One X] henk_j:
it never droped under 340 not in r2,3,4 and 5, interactive does, but ondemand is more responsive.
[HTC One X] woSaa:
Thank's franco, kernel works great on MIUI v4 :-D
[HTC One X] Snah001:
Mine drops to 205 Mhz........just wait a bit when monitoring (monitored with SystemTunerPRo).
[HTC One X] THANHVO31:
I noticed r5 minimum to be 102MHz. The stock can go deeper to 51MHz.
[HTC One X] omar302:
I tried R5 (repacked) on IC_6.3.0, with the modules, and have noticed that the screen on time during a call (when removing away from my ear) is considerably longer than stock Kernel. Any one else noticed this? or is it only me?
[HTC One X] Goku80:
Extra 50mhz does not make any difference. And sometimes going that low I would not suggest it
[HTC One X] actiff:
I am running MiUi v4 and installed Franco's kernel and in the notification area it spat out an error saying kernel needs to be updated.

Also had a few fc's..

I dont think this is intended for MiUi based Roms..

Great job franco! Everything works great on my custom miui v4 rom (willl be released soon:) ). Best battery life and performance.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
guys is it a habbit for HTC to update their kernel source? :S i don't think they do until the next major release like a new android upgrade
[HTC One X] henk_j:
you did fix permissions?
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
I flashed this kernel today and experienced heavy flickering. I was happy it was fixed in the update, now its back again .. any help ??
[HTC One X] -juanito-:
if you are using ARHD or IC please go to Repacked kernels
[HTC One X] Goku80:
hence why there is still 100mhz. and Franco is not stupid. I am sure he has a reason to get rid of the 50mhz step and only leave the 100mhz and still trigger the jump to saver core. and not always having the lowest step is the best.

going on the s2 people always use to go to the lowest step due to them thinking it would save battery..but in time they only encountered lags, freezing and music stuttering. by having it set to the next step all those issues were gone. Hence why i am thinking Franco has implemented this instead and got rid of the lowest frequency here...

But again i can be wrong who knows
[HTC One X] GuyAdams:
Under the GPL they are obliged to make the source accessible in a timely fashion. It will come, we just have a little wait.
[HTC One X] landwomble:
on latest team pkmn rom, just flashed this. getting intermittent wifi, have to toggle it to get it to connect, anyone else seen this?
[HTC One X] Daekin:
Just make official email demanding current version source and then they have few days to fulfil the request...

Anyway.. just noticed that r5 version upgraded my CPU to some better one :D bsplayer no longer works because it does not have decoding library for "arm7 vfp + neon". Is this optimization intended or you still have incorrect build flags specified? :confused:
[HTC One X] ThePanama:
I have just flashed this on Team PKMN and no issues with wifi so far.

Many thanks for your work on this kernel by the way :D
[HTC One X] Hedgehog57:
BSPlayer works fine for me... :confused:
[HTC One X] hamdir:
ok we have two main problems with the kernel source, it doesn't include what ever they did to fix flicker for some devices and the new color temp for the panels in the latest panels

sadly the latest stock kernel has random stutter and no match to franco's work
[HTC One X] slvrarrow:
Any opinions on ARHD vs CM9 battery life with this kernel? If ARHD is far better, is there a stock ICS theme available?

Thanks
[HTC One X] evo6:
Hi Franco,

Just wanted to say thanks for the kernel its working great :).
[HTC One X] GuyAdams:
The fix came in 1.29.x which they haven't released the source for yet.

the latest kernel has some pretty critical fixes
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
I have to fix the widget for this device, currently it tries to load stuff for the Galaxy Nexus. Fixes and additions are coming until the end of the week, I'm just overloaded with work. Some patience as I'm only one :)
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
People just think having a 1Mhz step it gives them 365 days of battery life. I gave up long ago to try and explain 10 times a day why that is false, so I just do what I think its best and leave people crying until they understand that in fact I might be knowing what I'm doing ;)
[HTC One X] Goku80:
Nicely said my friend. My thoughts exactly;):)
[HTC One X] geenyous:
Feedback r5

Oddly, I can also confirm that the flicker is stronger again in r5.

Also, the phone is still getting pretty warm.

Let's hope htc releases the lates kernel source soon so that we know better what they did to fix these issues.

As always, a part from the above I didn't have any issues, great work!
[HTC One X] evo6:
No worry's mate keep up the good work :D
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
ARHD6, r5 ondemand. On my mind it's a very good result for one x. All sync (gmail, social etc.) services are on, autobrightness.

strange...I have had ARHD6 with stock kernel, then updated to r4 and then updated to r5...in stock it was working, in r4 I did not try, in r5 I get that missing library message...

time to full wipe :mad:

maybe after that I will also get keyboard arrows with 3dotremover 1.1.0 like someone said (if not he was using other version)

Do you use any other specific cpu settings? And do you use the lower brightness mod or are you using the default values?

I'm not even getting close to such great usage (also when using the stock kernel, so it has nothing to do with the kernel).

Trying to figure out why my phone drains like 1% of battery per minute usage (screen on).

Also do other people experience that listening to music drains the battery pretty fast? Like 16% drain per 1 hour of listening to music (with ~7 minutes of screen on).

What i did is just let the phone work with full backlight for 2-3h (play games or just let it work) ... and after full charge, it will be perfect (i mean, for me it worked)...

Im using ARHD 6.0.0 and r5 (no repack, the original) ...

Hey Franco!

I always been a big fan of your kernels for the galaxy nexus and I see you made many people happy with your kernels for the gsm one x. But i'm sure you heard, the xda members finally figured out a way to UNLOCK the bootloader for the LTE version!

I can't wait to install your kernel on there. Hope you are working on porting your kernel to the LTE one x. :)

Wow, so HTCs fix isn't permanent but has to be applied after every kernel flash? :/

Wondering why going back to stock fixed it instantly for me, then.
[HTC One X] :
The fix from HTC was introduced with the 1.29 OTA.

The kernel sources are based on 1.28....kernel souces for 1.29 arent released yet...only way to get this fix is to flash a 1.29 stock kernel.
[HTC One X] Forsaked:

[HTC One X] Loopback7084:
Backlights + Governors

Franco,

This is my first ever post I'd like to say awesome work on the kernel.

I know 'requests' are a no-no, but would you mind awfully considering putting the /sys/class/leds/buttons_backlight/brightness on and off with screen events respectively only I'm not brave enough to compile my own!

The soft buttons are impossible to see in the dark thats all!

Once again great work and many thanks

nb... plus one on the scaling problem. CPU goes up to max even when forced not to.

nbb... The CPU unset scaling issue appears to coincide with screen on events... something unbinding the governor when screen turned on maybe?
[HTC One X] fictionworld:
am using your kernel as of now. although there are little increase of battery in between (that's because I'm doing backups on my laptop, attaching usb in it charges it a little) I think its pretty wicked still :)

[HTC One X] the_maker:
Franco, i did the test with r5, and now after two days with it i can conclude that r4 has better battery life, it is much smoother (not a placebo, i have been trying on full wiped instalation both kernels) and its been keeping the phone colder..

I don't know the real differences (except change log of course) but real life usage for me is crucial. So, at the end, i leave to keep r4 as the god damn best kernel so far :)

Thanks for trying and for the great work mate..

WTF? xD and now always when i do something like facebook or whatsapp (the only things i use on this ****in phone) i will get a battery drain :( maybe my battery really is defect? i tried all roms and all kernels and cleaned my system 100times and never had a better result than 10hours with my phone.. (my second one x) :( sorry for my bad english!
[HTC One X] damanrico:
That same thing happens to me, and it's not kernel related.

I've noticed (since day 1 of using my One X, so before unlocking it) that the battery percentage isn't true most of the time. It can stick at lets say 84% for a while, and suddenly drop to 79%. So it could be that you turn the screen on again, see 84%, use it for less than a minute and it shows 79%. Surely it didn't just drop 5%, but the battery percentage just didn't update for a long while (so either you're phone was idle for a long time and thus drained 5%, or during your last usage it didn't adjust the battery percentage down while it should have).

I'm guessing more people are having this issue, if not we have faulty devices.

True, it happens sometimes.

Heres the link i found that http://www.jayceooi.com/2012/04/11/how-to-test-htc-one-x-battery-life/

Have to put our HTC into Airplanemode, Charge it till 100% and then it will maybe test it! I will charge my device now and i hope i will know something more after that :)

EDIT: Okay, i made this "Test" started with 100%, finished with 88%. It is testing 60Minutes in the Airplanemode. I have passed the test if my Batterlevel is above 70% after one hour test. And i have 88% so my Battery cannot be Defect right?

if you like sweep then why not use the bricked kernel? sure sometimes it doesn't wake from sleep but that would be the same as on here.
