I agree... and apparently I'll flash it anew tonight but I fear to use device out of office when I see the charge melts like ice-cream in the heat :)

For clearing: on r6 I lost only 7% after last flashing (about 2 hours) but I lost 13% for about hour on r7 everything else being equal.
[HTC One X] GuyAdams:
Franco have the modules changes from r6 to r7?

Thanks
[HTC One X] Forsaked:
Franco any idea about WCDMA, GSM/WCDMA service drops since r7?

[HTC One X] kctan75:
Switch off problem after flashing r7

Hi Franco,

Can you have a look at why the HOx cannot switch off after flashing r7?

I have tried r6 and my HOx managed to switch off. thank in advance.

Thank for the great kernel. :)
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
Franco, btw any idea about issue with power off options? It was confirmed.
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
I haven't see it happen with me, but it's possible I might've cleaned something wrong. I'll check today.

I will have to check I might've cleaned something wrong. :)
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
Hmm. Step by step:

- reboot into bootloader

- fastboot erase cache

- fastboot flash boot boot-rX.img

- hit HBOOT

- hit RECOVERY

- flash franco.kernel-modules-rX.zip

Look again closely, unfortunately it's not gone (at least here it's not).

I fear we have to wait for the 1.29 sources to be released to finally get rid of the flicker again...

btw, same here with shut off, doesn't work.

EDIT: and I just had a reboot after entering PIN...

What can I post to help?
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
Ok! Thanks! I'm all waiting! ;)

[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
If your device reboots after using fastboot then your bootloader is ****ed.
[HTC One X] airchie:
Just a quick confirmation that shut-down actually reboots instead of shutting off. :)

Otherwise, not spotted any other issues.

If anyone wants me to test any issues they're seeing let me know.

Then we can hopefully give Franco more info to work with. :)

My rom arhd6.0

1.fastboot erase cache ok

2.fastboot flash boot boot-r7.img ok (system worked)

3.reboot recovery,install kernel modul and restart ok

4.sytem not worked stay boot screen !

What's wrong?
[HTC One X] callmelance30:
try to do this mate

1. reboot to recovery

2.flash zip kernel

3.reboot to bootloader

4.fastboot

5.fastboot erase cache

6.fastboot flash boot boot-rX.img

7,fastboot reboot
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
Weird... I never had the such problem with ARHD6 and franco.kernel.

Firstly try reboot to recovery, wipe cache and reflash modules. Then reboot to bootloader and:

fastboot erase cache

fastboot flash boot boot-rX.img

fastboot reboot

If it doesn't help try the next:

fastboot erase cache

flash stock ARHD boot.img

reflash ARHD w/o wiping

reboot to android

wait for some minutes

reboot to bootloader

fastboot erase cache

flash franco.kernel
[HTC One X] nobnut:
Why is everyone telling him to fastboot erase cache before he flashes the boot.img?

It should be done after (if it's going to make any difference at all).
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
I haven't located the problem yet, but I was taking a look and I did some wrong clean ups on baseband-xmn-power2.c and tegra_aic3008.c... time will tell thats why I'm here :)
[HTC One X] peppe104:
@callmelance30

I had the same problem with r5...I solved it by taking repacked kernel for ARHD :)
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
You're absolutely right but I advice it just for one reason - it helped me some times exactly in this sequence... I don't know why.
[HTC One X] nobnut:
Fair enough :)
[HTC One X] ryanafreez:
Just now my phone no signal, suddenly reboot and stuck at HTC logo..shutdown the phone by press off button for 4sec and now back online..if happen again, I will flash back to r6.. the battery also quite good with r7
[HTC One X] geenyous:
Just tried to do a reboot the r7 way (shut down :D) but my phone now stays shut down :confused:

FYI, I did a reboot because apparently my SIM was not detected (happened to me before on this kernel, either this or the SIM never unlocks, never happened on stock). Maybe the reboot is somehow connected to SIM/Mobile network - no SIM no reboot?
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
Seriously I'm not expert, I'm simply user and suggest just the fact that tried myself... nothing more. If this helps, it's good. If not, one can try something other.
[HTC One X] hamdir:
any chance of fixing the video playback bug in the gallery in your next release? this was sorted in the stock 1.29.401.11 kernel

btw the stock gallery plays video on the 5th core as confirmed by Nvidia
[HTC One X] treebill:
You can flash boot.IMG then use

fastboot boot recovery.IMG

Or as said hboot recovery.

It's better to do it this way as you only restart once.
[HTC One X] boshot:
In franco r7 there are only 18 module's.

In stock, bricked, faux and kholk there are 30/31 module's.

Is this correct with the 18 in franco r7?
[HTC One X] DanteGR:
Always done it like this myself + wiping cache and dalvik cache when in recovery (i know its not needed but i do it anyway) and never had a single problem when flashing kernels :)

I also always fastboot erase cache before AND after fastboot flash boot boot.img :D

[HTC One X] airchie:
Just tried reboot to recovery and reboot to bootloader and both just restart to the ROM (Jdroid exodised). Worse, restart to bootloader seems to have b0rked my ROM, it's re-installing a heap of apps and process.acore keeps stopping and widgets are missing and all sorts...

Gonna mess about and see if I can't get things working right...
[HTC One X] GuyAdams:
Where did they confirm this please?
[HTC One X] sean.trinidade:
I'm not suprised that it does, as I would presume it would behave like music etc.

However ..... I thought the 5th core only activated when the phone went to sleep i.e. when the screen is off. If so, what use would video be regardless?
[HTC One X] treebill:
any process the 5th core can handle is done on it and the main cores turns off. Doesny matter if screen is on or not.
[HTC One X] sean.trinidade:
I did not know that .... Always good to learn something new! :)

P.S. From Nvida's website:

Super 4-PLUS-1™ Quad Core with 5th Battery Saver Core Four plus one refers to Tegra 3’s quad CPU cores, plus the 5th, battery-saver CPU core. This Variable SMP architecture enables four performance cores to be used for max burst, when needed, with each core independently and automatically enabled and disabled based on workload. The single battery-saver core (or companion core) handles low-power tasks like active standby, music, and video, and is transparent to the OS and applications.

Full link here
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
No idea about this. You realize this 5th core and 1-4 cores business is very low level stuff... even some of the Tegra 3 kernel drivers I don't understand correctly.

Anyway I think I may have fixed the extra usage of battery during music listening (just pushed the commit on my github). It's a big IF, I don't know if that fixes it or not, but its a guess. Also probably fixed the strange signal loss some users reported (still a minority but its important to have it fixed).

Let's see what I can still clear before releasing another build. Oh by the way if anyone sees Trip tell him I say hello and that I will keep kanging his patches forever and beyond ./sarcasm
[HTC One X] MohamadAli:
u know i used to like trip once i got to know the cm9 he is working on. but after what i read yesterday on modaco, i realized why he was banned from xda.

anyways, ill be waiting for the next patch ull bring. i hope i get better battery life.
[HTC One X] GuyAdams:
I actually think its done on the silicon and not in drivers. Either way, its well out of the user space.

Keep up the great work.
[HTC One X] Bezelbu:
ok.

So as i continue to test r7 i came upon another strange bug. For some reason i cant shutdown the phone, it just restarts everytime i tell it to sdown.

Any ideas regarding fixing this issue?

p.s Btw putting the phone in airplane mode also gets it to restart

[HTC One X] Bezelbu:
thanx for the link... i just wanted to figure out if there was a issue or just me.

ill w8 for franco to look into it ofc.
[HTC One X] putti71:
Just checked airplane mode and suddenly reboots :(
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
I haven't fiddled with it that much as well. Do you know which file is responsible for the "Restart", "Power-off" actions? Seems I cleaned something up that caused the power-off to restart the phone instead of powering it off, but I can't find out which one.
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
Just fixed it on r8, tested airplane on/off just 10s ago and it was fine, no reboot.

EDIT: Also shuts down correctly. Seems I fixed it.
[HTC One X] chyl:
Mini question...

Am using Energy ROM + r7.. maybe is not match, or something wrong... no prob w the r6, but r7 the phone auto reboot when i'm using talkbox switching to camera mode, not occasionally but it happen few time...

The next one was... auto reboot after 100% charge. *** accidentally unplug and replug back and it reboot***

Full charge 100%, off screen, then put back charger in it. Reboot.

Test 4 time, all 4 time reboot.

I have no idea r6 does this also, but r7 yes. It was an accident on the first time, then the 2nd 3rd and 4th... it occur.

Maybe is just me. Perhaps someone can rectify.
[HTC One X] Forsaked:
Franco can i create logs or something else which help you to figure out what is the problem with the network drop?

I would test it all again if you want, thanks god for nandroid backups! :D
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
r8 is out:

* Fix shutdown bug where it restarted instead of shutting off

* Re-worked baseband-xmn-power2.c cleanup - now airplane doesn't restart the device and the odd signal issues should be fixed

* Re-worked tegra_aic3008.c (responsible for the sound) and now listening to music should use less power (not confirmed, just an assumption)

* One or two extra cleanups
[HTC One X] raubkatze:
Thanks! Will flash and test it now!

How to get the best battery life for this kernel on Android Revolution HD 6.0? It drains battery too quickly when I last tested and users report that too. Any fix or solution for that?

Thank you.
[HTC One X] patensas:
Great support i must say, quick response and fast fixing. However r8 feels like a step back in terms of speed, r7 performed better on miltiple benchmark apps and did feel smoother in use. Also for the first time in ages ( at least so it feels ) my device is using more power than the charger can supply.
[HTC One X] nobnut:
Nothing to do with the kernel. There has been a faulty batch... of users. HTC are aware.
[HTC One X] GuyAdams:
Before you make any battery assumptions you need to run your device for a full two recharge cycles, preferably three. Once you have done that, if things still aren't working as you would expect then come back and report it with as much information as possible.
[HTC One X] munich_2004:
have also ARHD 6.0 and flash r8.img (no repacked)

Use the command "fastboot erase cache" and dont forget to flash the modules into recovery.

And always do a nandroid backup before you change your kernel!

Deleted Data

When I flashed r6 to r7 there were no problems, but when I flashed r7 to r8 I had most of my data deleted so I had to do a factory reset because I didn't have a backup.

I did erase cache before I flashed the boot.img though fastboot.
[HTC One X] listentochaos:
Well you did something amazingly wrong if you managed to delete most of your data just flashing a kernel. What the hell did you do?

there definitely is an issue with SIM unlock and SIM recognition with this kernel (all of the versions I tested so far). I just can't be 100% sure that it will work first try. Right now I am booting for the 3rd time to get the modules onto my phone before flashing the new kernel... :-/
[HTC One X] the_maker:
As i said many time before. Try to press short once or twice the power button when you get the bootloop on the HTC ONE X screen, not on initial splash screen. That will allow the phone to continue. It is some kind of switch for boot problems that appear random.

Try it and tell me if it worked. Nothing has been compromised with your system or user data..
[HTC One X] skyalvinlee:
Try installing again, but UNPLUG your phone before you reboot after flashing.

Franco,

Im stuck on white htc screen when rebooting while plugged in to any power source, this has been an issue since r-4, can anyone confirm this?

Well, I already fully wiped my phone and reinstalled everything again but I'll remember to unplug my phone next time

[HTC One X] anfozy:
im trying to replicate some of the problems users have been getting with R8

* flashed kernel and modules with usb/power in - no problems

* flashed modules without power cable in - no problems

* wifi working great, good speeds, no drop outs

* data is getting 3G and H - speeds are fine

* rebooted phone with power plugged in, rebooted fine no problems (no hang booted fine)

* battery no significant drop of any kind when flashed r8 started on 80% flashed modules at 79% finished with 79%

* all my apps are still working fine, none have fc'd

* all data is still intact nothing is missing (im really not sure how some users are getting this problem, especially when only some of the data is missing, a partial data wipe? lol)

usual steps were taken flash boot.img, erase cache, flash modules

no data was wiped, flashed on top of R7, cant seem to replicate any of the problems described, if ive missed something or theres something anyone else wants me to try let me know
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
Yep, I haven't got any of those issues as well, and I can't reproduce it. Users with problems I need logcat and dmesg logs on the reboot that the data loss or something happened. Other than this I have no idea what it can be what-so-ever.

Anyway this kernel is clean as a babies ass, no derps, no warnings, no errors. Let's give it some days without releases to see what users report in battery life etc. We reached a stable point in terms of code and functionalities, so now lets let it roll for some days. I'm happy with the current situation.
