i think its very unlikely for now since the only means we can change/load kernel is through fastboot... when S-OFF will arrive, then Franco can easily make it possible...
[HTC One X] batna.antab:
My benchmark are strange(i use quadrant standart) i have 13500 point for cpu ,for mem 3300 ,2d graphics 950 , 3d graphics 2300 but for i/o( what is it? ) just 1600.. why my score are so different compared to yours?
[HTC One X] Forsaked:
Try running Quadrant 10 times in a row, you would see that you get a different Score every time you run it, this Benchmark has nothing to say.

If i try it 10 times, i get results from 4264 to 5198 without changing anything!

The Kernel works awesome for Daylie usage, so who needs Epeen-Benchmarks?
[HTC One X] batna.antab:
I know that benchmark are useless but i was wondering why his i/o score is over 7000 and mine around 1600 thats a Big difference.and what Ia it...
[HTC One X] henk_j:
the difference between ondemand and interactive in i/o handling?. most of the times is the first one the best. heat seems to make it slower everytime.
[HTC One X] kuailan:
Just flashed R4 with Core Droid ROM 3.0, and unbelievable my quadrant score keep breaking record (keep getting 5420-5450 after 5 tries). Tried with LeeDroid ROM 6.2 also get similar result. With 2 cores disable using Core Control app, I am getting around 4075-4175. So could it be people who get lower score, they forget to activate the 4 cores while using the core control app??? Personally I almost forget myself =)
[HTC One X] Neo XL:
The benchmarks all differs, if you start them after a restart of your device, also if you have running apps and if you have played a THD Game like riptide. If the device is in use, mostly i have had better results. My best results with Quadrant has been 5070, with AnTuTu 12.200.

"This is a 1.29.401.7 ramdisk so you'll most likely have to repack it if you're running a 1.29.401.11 rom, so don't bother crying at me for non-booting issues."

Greetings,

I am running 1.29.401.11 rom and I repacked r4 for this ramdisk. Before I flash it, I would like to ask is there any way to apply tweaks for ramdisk that I lost by repacking?

No, I didnt add support for this device yet, I was tired and went to sleep last night. That comes today.
[HTC One X] TAGTRAUM:
Franco thanks for great Kernel....On R4 i noticed flickering on white colour on low brightness,my set always 100%, when device going sleep, first it turn screen on low brightness, then screen-off....Is it result of lowered voltages etc..???

[HTC One X] more2come:
Did anybody already try R4 with a *.11 firmware? Would like to know if this really works, would be sad to lose franco's ramdisk tweaks with a ROM rebuild.

#EDIT

Well, answered that myself. It works, boots up correctly. But slow homescreen scrolling is still jerky and looks like a seizure attack from time to time. I'm on InsertCoin 6.2.0 at the moment and with every custom kernel scrolling behaviour on the homescreen is the same! Anyone else experiencing that?
[HTC One X] airchie:
Hey franco, I used your kernels on my SGN, hope you'll be bringing the app to the HOX too?

I've flashed r4 kernel now and so far so good.

Keep up the good work anyway.

What about temp??...While on charging and screen-on 100% brightness causing high temperatures??
[HTC One X] aslan93:

[HTC One X] anfozy:
no the modules dont need to be repacked you can use the same ones from the OP

No high temperatures!

And i have used a grey image to see the flickering.

No, just flash the package via cmw after you flashed boot.img via fastboot!
[HTC One X] lrbpereira:
Francisco does your kernel support the CM9 AOSP Trip rom?

Was it sleep2wake feature allready?

Abraço da comunidade Pplware!
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
If you repack this zImage to his ramdisk I'm pretty sure it will work, but I don't know if Trip added anything specific in the kernel for cm9 to work.

It doesn't contain sleep2wake. With all due respect to showp1984 work I think that functionality is useless ;)

Abrécio :)
[HTC One X] Xphoid:
I had been using Franco's Kernel R3 for the last one week without any serious issues and now R4... So far so good...

Thanx to Franco for his efforts...

I have one question that I have realized... When I use System Tuner I see only 2 CPU's as active... the other two is always offline... is this normal???

And which app is being suggested for this governor and scheduler settings & which governer/scheduler is best Franco's kernel?

One last thing, shall I change max&min frequencies?

Edit: Since Franco is here I can ask directly to you all of the above questions =) and I am using ARHD 6 so I am using 1.29.401.11... did i miss to much thing since I used repacked boot.img?
[HTC One X] sean.trinidade:
Yes. The other cores only ever come on when they are needed.

You can try running something CPU intensive and then switching to System Tuner to see the other CPU's.
[HTC One X] Xphoid:
thanks a lot... this was a relief =)

and which app do you suggest for me to use for governors and others? actually I have tried SetCPU, SystemTuner and Nofrills.. but which one will be the best? (and of course settings that Franco Kernel works best?)
[HTC One X] eyosen:
There is a program called CoreControl still under development for controlling number of cores running. Find it here under the Themes and Apps section of HOX forum.
[HTC One X] H00pyFr00d:
I'm using this with Trip's CM ROM and it works great. Some heat issues but nothing too drastic. It runs great and I have a quadrant score of 5k

I believe Trip's binning Swipe2Wake in his next Kernel shortly.

Thanks Franco. Great kernel

Ok this kernel is now supported on my updater app with the following initial features:

#4.8

* Added support for my HTC One X kernels (international Tegra 3 version ONLY) with the following features:

* Downloads boot.img and modules directly from the FTP

* CPU tools with the ability to change governor parameters and mess with the default governor and CPU frequencies

* Full control over the 4 cores - you can chose how many cores you want your device to use

* Live watch over the 4 cores by the second - you can see the device turning on/off the cores live

[HTC One X] geenyous:
Feedback r4

Just to inform you that the screen flicker is still present in r4, appears not to be related to the voltage tweaks. It actually feels worse, but that might be placebo.

Also, the tweaked ondemand governor is still too aggressive, gets the battery too hot at an unhealthy 50° when playing shadowgun thd. You probably didn't do anything about that, but this is important imho. If you can, look at stock 1.29 kernel, was running smooth and cold (hamdir might have more input on this subject).

A part from the above still all good, had no other issues so far.

Thanks!
[HTC One X] Xphoid:
Actually after my earlier posts, i uninstalled the app immediately... Cause it get unstable...

But now when I used video or do more simple things, the temperature rises up immediately... and the battery drained faster today...

I'm thinking about going back to nandroid backup and than flash ARHD&R4 cause yesterday everything was smooth...

But i still want to use System Tuner Pro or SetCPU or NoFrills... but i really can not understand if they really work? And i still do not know what is the ideal settings for Franco's R4??

I'll really appreciate if somebody, anybody can reply...

Thanx...

Just flash stock r4 with no app and it will run fine, adding these cpu tweaks has only ever made my battery worse, even using core control drained more battery.

Full wipe or factory reset, flash from then flash kernel then erase cache let it do the first boot add all your apps e.c.t and login then make a back up your find the phone will be fine.

I guess NVIDIA has some deamon running on userspace to control that **** like they had on the Tegra 2...

They eventually managed to **** NVIDIA. I might be wrong on this one, but thats my guess.

I'm repacking the kernel to the newest ramdisk to prevent **** for further releases as we speak.

There's still lots to tweak.

No, using stock 1.29.401.11 ramdisk with my optimizations + init.d support. It should boot on every rom.
[HTC One X] n3ocort3x:
Hy there, using your Kernel since first release. I have one quick question:

Do you know why the phone gets hot when charging ? That wasn´t until release r4. Maybe its ROM but it started as i updated to r4.

Thats the only issue i got so far (maybe its no issue) Just want to know if you know something about... keep up the good work... OneX runs great
[HTC One X] hamdir:
I can honestly say franco r4 is the fastest kernel on the one x right now and Ive tried them all, its only one ramping quickly and not lagging during THD games

on heavy use it heats a little since it ramps u much more often but never crosses 50 degree, this is perfectly normal since in the end u bought a 1.5ghz quad core at 40nm, no point in not using its power

I have one area of concern however its based on kernel source older than the .11 update and so it doesn't include the latest flicker fix and the video playback bug is back for me in the gallery, it was gone in .11 stock kernel
[HTC One X] TAGTRAUM:
On R4 Kernel i have 67 Celsius temperature in System Tuner Pro, after 15 min playing Sonic EPII THD, it become hot like playboy girl :D:D:D
[HTC One X] knights.JayTana:
Thanks for confirming my findings...

OT:

Anyway, have you heard of "pegasusQ"governor Franco... i asked about it in the other Kernel thread and receive no response...
[HTC One X] the_maker:
I think it is based on .11 build. You can read his reply couple of posts before yours..
[HTC One X] hamdir:
67 CPU temp that's perfectly normal, I meant battery temp never crossed 50

its the only kernel that plays S4e2 without lag without touching the clocks on on-demand gov

its based on pre .11 kernel source he was talking about the ram disk in his reply
[HTC One X] Daekin:
OK then. and will you repack v4 or will you finish some development and then later release r5 with that ramdisk?
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
Release #5 with the new ramdisk.
[HTC One X] geenyous:
So you don't fear about your battery when playing at 50°?

Battery widget monitor app says the battery is overheated and according to the batteryuniversity, heat is a Li-based battery's cryptonite:

I can't remember having any lag on stock 1.29 kernel when playing shadowgun thd and the temp never crossed 45° (still too high according to above, but certainly better than 50°) plus I had no flicker, but that has been said several times before...
[HTC One X] Fruktsallad:
Hey franco, just putting out a heads up that richardtrip has fixed proper userspace undervolting now, so it's there for when you feel your kernel is ready to implement it.

Dont count on it too soon, Im a little against undervolting, if the voltages are set to X or Y from factory then there must be a reason for it. And besides I dont need something else for instability so soon.

I figured that much.

But do I lose any of the functionality you build in?

[HTC One X] XDAgeek:
Newbie alert. I've read this forum and am still at a loss as to how to flash these kernels. Are there any instructions? link?

I'm running Baadnews 6.2.2 rom and wondering what I do to get a franco kernel running on the phone. Is it the same fastboot usb process as when flashing a stock boot.img/

What are all these modules I read about that I might have to compile?

Any pointers appreciated.

Regards,
[HTC One X] crescal:
Normally speaking, flashing a custom kernel should gives you smoother system, better battery life, more reliable memory management etc.

But it really depends on the coding of the kernel and you can't really know before flashing it. (Except you are s linux expert)

The procedure is just similar. Fastboot flash boot boot.img. then fastboot erase cache.
[HTC One X] franciscofranco:
r5:

* Ramdisk rebased to stock 1.29.401.11 (it should boot on every rom now)

Not that you would notice. You might be able to see a difference over a year but not with normal use.
