Actually, Linaro has kernel source that was modified / optimized for use with their toolchains using -O3 optimization...

Fixing warnings and errors during an -O3 compile is one thing, and applying their patches/enhancements/optimizations is something else.

for example, their release notes from Linux 3.6 RC to 3.6 final:

[HTC EVO 3D] amdultra:
does this kernel compatible with Gingerbread? i installed this on sense 3.0 GB but it's always crash system setting force close but work fine on ics
[HTC EVO 3D] SinisterChedda:
Nope not compatible with GB. They are 2 totally different OS's so they need different kernels.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
There are NO linaro "optimization patches"! These patches are for kernel, not the tool chain. If there is a patch for linaro it for the tool chain not any "optimization patch" it for updating the tool chain. The optimization are from the compiler it self not any patches you think of.
[HTC EVO 3D] TweetyBear:
Thanks, since it appears that you are unaware that Linaro makes kernels also, I will asusme the answer to the yes or no question i asked is... no.. thats all I needed.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Lol you really have no idea what your talking about do you? They build kernels to show what their COMPILER improved on. Like I said there are no linaro "optimization patches" the optimizations are from the compiler.
[HTC EVO 3D] TweetyBear:
OK, if you say so...but some kernels, even those on XDA that applied the same patches, code, commits, changes, updates to their kernel that are in the linaro kernel gained performance... (most are CM10 kernels)

maybe patches is not the right word.. but "updates, commits, code, etc)

just saying...

I am done with this thread, I got the answer to my question... that is all..

EDIT: they still maintain and update their kernel source, so... if its intent was to prove performance increases with their COMPILER, why would they keep updating it after that was proven? Do you think the changes they are making (patches) are of no benefit to kernels like yours?
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
If you built a compiler would you use old kernel source or would you keep kernel source updated? They need to keep the kernel updated to the most current build that way they can update their compiler accordingly. Exactly go into some other dev thread and start blabbering your optimization patch thing and they will say the same thing.
[HTC EVO 3D] TweetyBear:
there are a lot of CM10 developers claiming to have the same "patches" in their kernel.. mainly for google devices...

Funny how people who had no idea what Linaro was in these parts of XDA until Chad started using Linaro... now everyone is a Linaro expert...

Sorry, really done now... bye.. :)

[HTC EVO 3D] eagleeyetom:
I'm sorry but I have to cut this discussion here. Chill out a little, get some cold "juice" to drink and kindly focus on the development without insulting/pointing out some lacks of knowledge.

wow huge chnagelog mike..:D

thx
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
No problem bro, do it for all you guys! It's getting there. Running really good on your Rom.
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
I see some version of your kernel is an option in Agrabren's new 0.2 Disarmed Toaster. S2W is causing some problems with reboot and so I went with the default kernel upon reinstalling. I really want to run this ver 2.0 kernel on that rom. It says sense, but will it will work on Disarmed Toaster 0.2?
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
It might actually work on disarmed toaster. But I am going to update that aosp kernel as well here soon. Probably work on it today to fix the s2w.

It an easy fix.
[HTC EVO 3D] Hammerfest:
woah, reinforcement by the Coolexe, Might have to give this a try, currently running Coolexe's CoolSense v12 with his latest kernel, smexy folks, thats what this seems to be!
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Yea he likes my kernels :cool: I am on v12 myself with my kernel and running great.

He has always made an astounding Rom, great work!
[HTC EVO 3D] nickgrill:
i need a kernel with fastcharge and found this thread. i am running MikVirgin ICS ROM with H-Boot 1.5 s-on. will this kernel work with my rom? do i need to have s-off?
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
It should work just fine. Yes, I recommend s-off. I have always been s-off and never flashed kernels with s-on.

I think 4ext recovery has smart flash for s-on.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
+1 to this. I answer a lot of questions in Q&A and most bootloops are caused by being s-on. As soon as the person becomes s-off, their flashing issues go away.

[HTC EVO 3D] nickgrill:
crap!! thanks for the quick response. i guess i will have to figure out how to get s-off. :(
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
If you're on Sprint, I recommend ramjet's easy to follow guide from here.

Just wanted to say that 2.0 is a great improvement. Not that there was much wrong with 1.0, but the latest is damn smooth and I am loving it.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Just flashed this (sense version) on Disarmed Toaster and it running quite well! 4g turns on / off :good:
[HTC EVO 3D] danaff37:
Camera work too?!?
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
No guess not, but I just need to apply Agrabrens camera patch.

EDIT:

Added a build with Disarmed Toaster camera fix for any one who would like to try this out on Disarmed Toaster!

It is a temporary fix by Agrabren. After you flash there will be slight screen tearing on notification bar. It will go away once you open camera..

http://d-h.st/98c
[HTC EVO 3D] alammori:
Camera works with this kernel. I had the screen tearing on the notification bar too but it went away as soon as I tried the cam. I have 4G connection but not here at home, it is in my office. I will try it as soon as I go there.

Thank you for your efforts.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Thanks! 4g should work too, it only downtown where I live so can't test.
[HTC EVO 3D] poor_red_neck:
Mike,

Loving the kernel, so much snappier however I have two small issues, one of which is probably hard to track down.

The minor issue is every once and a while WiFi will hang when turning on/off. Reboot and it works fine. It really is random, and not that big of an issue.

The other I'm not sure if is an "issue" with the kernel, or if it's the Dual Core (now Kernel Tuner) app.

No CPU speed over 172.8Mhz works. It either locks the phone up, or defaults back to 151.2Mhz

CPU speed and governor are reset as soon as the phone is "put to sleep" (off, but not shutdown). When you wake the phone up it defaults right back to 151.2Mhz with interactive governor.

The only thing that sticks is the "Misc" options (de-activating S2W, Fastcharge ON) and activating dual core all the time.

I'm using "Cool Tools" to verify CPU speed.

Again, I'm not sure if this is Kernel Tuner's fault, or something with the kernel. I haven't used another CPU frequency changer app, as I've only found Kernel Tuner able to "permanently" activate both cores when the phone is awake. I notice a significant speed difference with both cores are on, vs the second core only active under heavy load. The "stock" settings" seems to wait a while before activating the second CPU.

If there's any advice you can give or an alternative to Kernel Tuner I'd be very gracious.

Thank you for your hard work,

Jonathan
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
Flashed two days ago, been using kernel tuner to tweak it (says its 93% compatible) and yesterday it just cut my radio off. No signal whatsoever. Tried restoring from a backup, tried reflashing rom, tried reflashing kernel, nothing. Tried to flash anthrax and stock kernel but it still shows MAC kernel under about phone. For some reason the MAC kernel seems to override all other kernels. Any suggestions?
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
I have never had good luck with Kernel Tuner. I get the same thing as most people. I always use antutu cpu master pro although it doesnt have all the features for turning on /off swee2wake and fastcharge. BUT the author of fast charge also made an app to enable it. In my extras / info. I have all the info on how to enable disable stuff in post # 3.

That is odd. Do you wipe everything but sd card when flashing another rom? It shouldn't stick like that, I never heard of that before.. What your configuration? hboot, s-off / on, etc, etc..
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
I have the HTC evo v 4G hboot 1.57, s-on, 4ext w/ smart flash enabled. Ever since I've turned on smart flash, I can flash other kernels now, but I'm getting the same issue with no service...
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
If you read around you will notice people who are s-on have the most problems including wifi and data drops, like you are experiencing. S-off and you shouldn't have any problems, then again I'm not sure if there is s-off for evo v.
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
So what do I do now? How can I get my service to work again? My last resort is putting the stock rom back on and relocking the bootloader and seeing if VM will send me another one, but i don't want to do that unless I necessarily have to.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
You can always try to flash the latest firmware for your phone. I never been in that situation before so I couldn't really tell you. Dropped service thing is not a kernel issue. Google the issue I a have read quite a few times about someone having that issue..
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
Would I be able to flash it being s-on? Do you think kernel tuner would have anything to do with it?
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
No, it most likely the fact you are s-on. Have you tried updating prl and pri? I am not sure, don't think so, you can run the ruu.. That will bring you back to life..
[HTC EVO 3D] TheKnux:
Tried updating prl, profile, nothing worked. Went in venom tweaks and went into hidden diagnostics and under network operator its just blank. Could you provide a link or something to it please?
[HTC EVO 3D] poor_red_neck:
Mike,

One more thing that I'm not sure is the kernel or not, but it's only started happening since flashing 2.0. Power button does not turn the screen on. The soft buttons come on, but it never comes back. Have to reboot. Has happened about 3 or 4 times now I don't remember it happening before on 1.x and for sure never did it on stock kernel (MeanROM2.x)

I apologize if this has nothing to do with the kernel, I have no idea. Just thought I'd bring it up.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Yea that has happened to me now that I think of it, it random. I'm not sure what it is but if it happens again after it boots go to /proc/ and get me last_kmsg.
[HTC EVO 3D] danaff37:
I get this a lot more when min clock speed is at 192. Min clock speed at 384, and I never have to reboot (although it does take 5-10 seconds to turn on screen at rare occasions)
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Update time!! Aosp next!! Waiting for a build from Agrabren so I can test with the new base.. Still debating on Aroma, what do you guys think????

[HTC EVO 3D] ohbuckeyeman:
Thanks for your hard work. Screenies with batt life?
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Sure just give me a day just flashed this a little while ago got to let it settle in....

Post some up by tomorrow.
[HTC EVO 3D] ohbuckeyeman:
Thank you. I'll do the same. I'm a flash whore and decided to give it a go for myself. Will be interesting to see how it compares to others since I sit in a bad sprint service area.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Yea I am in a bad serive area myself. With coolrom I usually get around 15 hours with 2-4 hours of on screen time...
[HTC EVO 3D] ohbuckeyeman:
Is that with 3g or sitting on WiFi mostly? Sounds reasonable. Pathetic on screen time compared with my wife's LTE. MUCH better than the heroc though. LOL!
[HTC EVO 3D] mvansomeren:
Hi, just a couple of quick questions.

I apologize if these have already been answered...I just found this thread and read through all 160 posts quickly while at work so I may have missed it.

1) I saw early on there were issues using this Kernel with MeanRom 2.6 ICS. Have the issues been resolved?

2) Does 3D work with this Kernel?

Thanks in advance!
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
I am not totally sure at the moment. Ill flash mean rom and try for myself just give me a bit....

Yes 3d works!
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:

No issues with mean rom. Shows my kernel in the software information...

Think it was flashing to another kernel from mine that was the problem for some.
[HTC EVO 3D] mvansomeren:
Okay, cool. I'll flash it once I get home from work. Thanks again!

[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Nice, looking forward to try it out!! :good:

Just flashed the old unthemed version of your rom, ICSense420!
[HTC EVO 3D] ohbuckeyeman:
Thanks for the update! You put out a new one before I finished my battery testing. Nice job. It has been pretty solid thus far though. It's only dropped 60% all day for me. Not bad at all for my usage.
[HTC EVO 3D] ohbuckeyeman:
Not badn started at 70%, flashed the new kernel in there too.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Looking good :cool:
[HTC EVO 3D] mvansomeren:
So after running the kernel for almost a day, I've noticed that after a few hours, it starts to develop lag... scrolling becomes jumpy and pressing on icons, buttons has a delayed response. The only cure at the moment seems to be rebooting the phone. Its acting almost like memory is getting full...
[HTC EVO 3D] mvansomeren:
Update: I changed the governor from "interactive" to "On Demand" and that seems to have resolved the lag issue. it's been lag free since the change.
[HTC EVO 3D] MikeC84:
Yea interactive is not the best governor, I usually use smartass ti gives the best battery without any loss of performance..
[HTC EVO 3D] mvansomeren:
Thanks, I'll try that governor as well.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zhuhang:
My XS is running 2.3.7

I want a backup of this rom, but if i use seus method, i can only get ftf of latest ICS rom.

I want a backup of my own region's firmware.

Not rooted so far.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tharghan:
Hi! I got a problem with my S3 (totally standard, no custom rom). It started yesterday... basically if i press home key, sometimes it takes me to the home screen, sometimes it takes me to other widget pages. The odd thing is that it's not always the same page... sometimes it's the 2nd from the left, sometimes it's the 3rd from the right... and so on. It seems to depend on what screen i was on last when i launched the application.

What happened? Anyone else had this odd behaviour? I already tried a softreset... doesn't work. ;(

Help me... thanks!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joey jojo:
make a backup using titanium backup or Go Backup, and do a factory reset, then restore all your apps and settings.

this may help and shouldn't take longer than half hour.

It does sound like a software glitch that can be fixed with a reset.

Make sure to have the required DLLs in the same directory you are executing adb from (or in a specified PATH).
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Jesse6749:
Well I flashed this and even though it says the recovery is successfully written, when I reboot into recovery all I get is the android with the red exclamation mark and it never boots into the recovery at all??? weird.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Omnius001:
Notice that the recovery files has been mixed up, but when you download from the mirror link, the nothrills_recovery.img is in it.

Just redo the procedure with the right file, not the factory 1.0.044, and you will be good to go.

On a subsequent note to the dev:

This is ****ing brilliant!

It works, damn it! Thank you for the work, we've been waiting for this **** to come along for a looong time, and even thou you stand on shoulders from work done on the A700, be asured that a lot of us is clappin' our hands now, thanks to you :)

Sincerely Omnius
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Jesse6749:
I have tried both of the files from the regular and the mirror sites and it says it completed ok, but I still do not have the custom recovery. I have done this many times on different devices and this is the first time it does not work, I am following the instructions by the letter too. LOL!!!
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] scorpio16v:
Anyone with A511 tested it ?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Jesse6749:
Does anyone know if this could be flashed using terminal emulator. Using ADB I get confirmation that it sent and wrote the files ok to the tablet, but I still just get the dead android with the red exclamation when I try booting into recovery, regardless of wheather I use adb or the button holding methods.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] jokerzlh:
Have u checked the MD5? (MD5 for .img: 6ea6e278ebe2e9f093bcdef5ea07a990)

Maybe u should download the file again and make sure the MD5 correct.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Jesse6749:
I did check the MD5 and it matches the MD5 on the OP and on your post as well, so the file is good. I have re downloaded the file 4 times already too.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Mechkilla:
Did you really reboot directly into recovery after flashing? If you were a little too slow and gave the stock firmware a chance to boot it will first reflash the stock recovery. If you then boot again and go into recovery you will get the fallen droid with exclamation mark.

I had experienced the same problem. After flashing the recovery it will automatically reboot and give you an extremly short time frame to go into recovery.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] NoThrills:
This is what I'm thinking as well. I should probably edit the instructions on the first post, as I didn't think about the fact that people might not have the recovery_from_boot files removed.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Jesse6749:
I just followed the instructions and rebooted into ICS then ran the adb reboot recovery command. So you are saying to run the adb reboot recovery command immediately after it finishes flashing. I may just try this later today. I got it to boot into recovery once and then went back to the dead android, then I followed the updated instructions on the op and now it works every time and it boots into the CWM recovery every time.
