Unfortunately both solutions dind't work.:(

Tried kernel PYD-X-3.8.1beta-ViperS.zip still bootloop.

Then I tried the procedure with restoring the boot image from the source package and flashing the kernel again.

As it was not clear to me if I have to install the boot image and the kernel in one step or to reboot after installing the boot.img I gave it a try with options both - but no success at all.
[HTC Sensation] topjohnwu:
Install 3.8.1 >> if bootloop, pull the boot.img from your rom's zip >> push it through fastboot or the method in 2nd post(whatever you want) >> flash the kernel again. Your phone should boot without problems.
[HTC Sensation] ramses70:
I did it as described (2nd post with boot.img replace as well) - I don't know what I made wrong.

What do you mean with push it trough fastboot?

In 4ext recovery there is no fastboot available and if I enter the bootmenu in Fastboot menu there is no option to apply a boot.img.

Another question - if I enter into 4Ext recovery I always get that the SmartFlash function is enabled and if I want to disable that feature....

Hopefully I am not to stupid - but at the moment it looks to me that I did all possible steps as described in the 2nd post ...
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
is your phone s-on???

if it is s-on, I'm not sure that my solution would work

try this:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32234138&postcount=599

or just try a newer version 4.1.9:

https://doc-0o-3g-docs.googleuserco...217/*/0B2JgaY1NQ-OjQ3Q1aUU0NWpfaEU?e=download

Just install the latest beta 4.1.9

f***ing fast :good:

not sure that I'm running 972+810mhz or 2 cores of 1188mhz compared to v3.8.1

nơ it í truely the fastest kernel I have ever seen. way faster i/o than faux

The new features:

- LED notification time-out

- fastcharge
[HTC Sensation] ramses70:
The newer kernel version doesn't help but your first tip helped a lot.

I couln'd make the venom version work due to android error messages in the login dialogue but I got rid of the bootloops - that's the main important thing.

I will install my preferred rom now from scretch - but anyway problem solved that's it :cool:

Thanks a lot guys for your quick support.

It's always a pleasure to see how the community works.
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
it is locked at 200mhz forever according to sebastianFM so it is not a bug

he blocked the change because it caused something wrong in his device

however, as I mentioned before, I and Yank agreed that OC-ing 2D GPU is such a waste of battery (because it can't scale up and down) and it has almost no advantage (except benchmarking)

200mhz is perfect for me

I think 1 way to optimize 2D gpu is DISABLING FORCE 2D GPU IN APPLICATION in developer option -> it sometimes causes some glitches and graphic issue and also decreases antutu score

---------- Post added at 08:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 PM ----------

@pacha

when will you release the final version :p

I think this test build is really good and I could be the final version despite a lack of mpdecision & thermald (I can add them)

you said there is a huge changelog so I think this build is just 50% of your changelog :good:

keep the great job

I can certainly wait for the final build, no need to hurry. still enjoying the performance of the test build
[HTC Sensation] Gramzz:
What is it stock htc settings frequency for 2d and 3d fit sensation?

You told that optimal 2d it's 200mhz, and what it's optimal 3d frequency?

And I don't play any game on the phone, so I don't need oc gpu.

Will I save the battery with lower frequency 2d and 3d?
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
2D: 200mhz ~~~> can't be changed

3D: 266mhz is stock HTC and 300mhz is kernel stock

I suggest using 266mhz => good enough

or 300mhz is also ok. not much different

3D GPU is able to scale up and down

in idle, it stays at 177mhz and will increase when something is running
[HTC Sensation] Gramzz:
Is this kernel use new I/O scheduler "vr"?

I didn't see it before. Is it good for viper?

I used always deadline.
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
yes. the default one is vr

deadline is stock in some kernels but I dont think it is the best

you can read some info about i/o scheduler here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23616564&postcount=4

- vr is the best for benchmarking because it scales up & down very quickly => battery life = ???, also the pros and cons posted by droidphile makes me confused about this io: Least reliable/most unstable

- deadline is ok

- SIO = deadline + noop => I think it is the best for battery life & performance

- noop is fast and reliable, but not as good as battery compared to sio

forget cfq because it is slow. I only use it on sebastian and Bricked kernel because it is recommended by their devs

quoted from droidphile
[HTC Sensation] XxXPachaXxX:
Yeah? do u like the new kernel? :p i have to update a lot of other code.

For built in mpdecision and thermald, i think that the best way is to use htc's binaries. Mpdecision bin is working very well, specially on sense 4 ui. So i think that i will not include kernel side mpdecision and thermald.

VR is default sheduler because i think that it's the best to have a fast sense 4 ui.

I build this kernel principally for me, and i want the best performances from my phone, and i want a perfect smooth sense UI. i hate a lot the lags. my phone must be Always ready when i need, with a great battery life.

Enjoy this new baby! :D
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
what do you mean you wont add mpdecision and thermald?

is the htc bin = bin from sebastian kernel that we use from all versions?

or you mean that you wont add a built-in msm_mpdecision just like bricked? => I have no knowledge about compiling kernel so I dont know this

I dont like this msm_mpdecision also and I prefer mpdecision and thermald bins from v3.8.1

In my previous post, I meant that I could add 2 bins: mpdecision and thermald from the old version back to the kernel zip package so users wont have to flash the old version before flashing the test build

p/s: your link for the test build is dead or you just removed it
[HTC Sensation] nosferatu997:
Oh no, I wasn't fast enough to download :(
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
here you are

https://www.dropbox.com/s/rhltue3bwypiv5q/test4.1.9.zip
[HTC Sensation] :
Thx ;)

BTW, will u make a Aroma Version for the Testversion?
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
the 3.8.2 is still 100% compatible so you can use it

the 2 new features: led notification and fastcharge => you can easily config using kernel tuner -> switch on and off, very easy

I will wait until he releases the final version, I will make the aroma version for these features too
[HTC Sensation] topjohnwu:
Small question, I've got mpdecision and thermald in system/bin, but when checking compatibility in kernel tuner it doesn't show it has mpdecision or thermald. Am I doing something wrong?
[HTC Sensation] Azyrael:
Omg?! Just Run the Quadrant Benchmark with 4.1.9.. I got 4100 so more than the transformer Prime and about 700 points more than with 3.8.1. Your kernel is really extreme powerfull ;)
[HTC Sensation] XxXPachaXxX:
I was talking about built-in mpdecision and Thermald...i will continue to use the external binaries, the same of the 3.8.1 version. They works very well...but if users want, later i can add the built-in controllers.

Thanks for the link!

there are a dev-host mirror:

http://d-h.st/sPV
[HTC Sensation] victoryo:
Hihi, almost thought the dev-host link was the final version release xD, hihi :P
[HTC Sensation] XxXPachaXxX:
U have to wait a bit for the final release :) but this latest build is very stable
[HTC Sensation] mr_gem:
Axetilen mentioned about led notification change, I guess that will fix the issue that led always shines when the battery is below 10% right :D
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
I dont think so

the LED config is only useful when message or something are coming

it can't change when the battery is low -> rom feature???

post #2 updated

PYD-X kernel v4.1.9 test build WITH Powerful Kernel Reset:

- The lastest test build v4.1.9

- Powerful Kernel Reset (updated 7/1/2013 for more leftovers)

- Included mpdecision + thermald + init.qcom.post_boot.sh + thermald.conf => users don't have to flash the older version to get these

NOTE:

PYD-X kernel MOD v3.8.2 is still compatible with this build and you have you reflash v3.8.2 MOD after flashing this kernel

Download
[HTC Sensation] kaleci07:
boot,img problem still here , could you make a zip like 3.8.1 boot fixed
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
I'm a bit busy right now

can you flash v3.8.1 - no bootloop and then flash 4.1.9 over?

I think it will give no bootloop

Hey I love this

GhostXSeries changed his name to Ghost so I editted
[HTC Sensation] NightM@re:
I use elegancia rom (Maniac) should i use v3.8.2 ? or v3.8.1

it says at op that 3.8.1 won't get you bootloop with eleganica but is it fine to run with the latest build ?
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
scroll down to 2nd post by me

download v3.8.1 kernel non-bootloop flash then download and flash v4.1.9 over (in case you have bootloop)

v3.8.2 is MOD, not kernel :D

v4.1.9 is super fast, much better than 3.8.1

and v3.8.2 mod can be used with 4.1.9 without any problem
[HTC Sensation] nosferatu997:
And it works with no problem on Elegancia:)
[HTC Sensation] NightM@re:
sorry but i'm a bit lost , should i install the 4.1.9 from your post or op ?

i mean i guess yours have the aroma thing built it ?

if yes ? why would i need to install 3.8.2 mod ? isn't that already added by your version :D

i don't know if i'm dump or its a lil bit complicated :\
[HTC Sensation] efebe:
The link on the 2nd post... "PYD-X with powerful kernel reset" isnt working ... any chance it could be checked out please?... Thank you very much :) !!!
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
whatever you want

1/ install v3.8.1 non-bootloop to make sure

2/ install v4.1.9 from my post to clean up trashes

3/ install MOD v3.8.2

=> I plan to make an AROMA version All-in-one for PYD + sebastianFM + sultan kernel

so I dont have to make 3 mods for 3 kernels

but it should take time

dropbox has been down rightnow :(, it should comeback later due to server error

[HTC Sensation] Solar_:
Had a bootloop on Elegancia 3.2.2 when I installed 4.1.9-beta without the 3.8.1-non bootloop version.

So, after I formatted boot and installed the 3.8.1-non bootloop first and than flashed 4.1.9-beta over it, it was all fine!

Using exactly the settings axetilen uses (;)) and it is really smooth! Even on 972 and 810, it feels like dual 1566!

Really good job Pacha and axetilen! :good:
[HTC Sensation] NightM@re:
when it comes to kernels , axetilen is a god !

could you please tell me where did you copy his settings from ? thanks
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
I'm not a god :|:|:|

btw, thanks for your words :)

I told him my settings

- ondemand

- i/o: sio

- max cpu0 = 972, max cpu1 = 810

- min = 192

- battery save preset in aroma

these settings just make the kernel slower than the default settings from pacha

my aim is to make the best battery life possible + enough smoothness
[HTC Sensation] victoryo:
Are you sure your MOD 3.8.2 is working proper on it?

Because when i install this kernel and after that i use the MOD 3.8.2 i got a very slow ROM and

low score in Antutu.

Before installing the mod i've checked that there wern't any leftovers in the init.d folder and had uninstalled

kernel tuner.

But.... if i install the last version without your mod and configure the settings the same as in your mod with kernel tuner

i got a smooth working rom and the antutu score is around the 8800, so normal!
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
because the mod aims to give better battery life so the speed can't be equal to the default settings

but you can fully customize all the settings in aroma install and you can make it even faster than the default settings

maybe there is something wrong, because kernel tuner saves the old settings and applys them on everyboot

if you flash the mod, it will be loaded first

but after that, the settings from kernel tuner will be loaded and OVERWRITE the one from the mod => the final settings are the one from kernel tuner

I'm using the mod + 4.1.9 => fast like hell
[HTC Sensation] victoryo:
Yeah, iam also using the mod and before that i deleted kernel tuner and all left over init.d files.

So kernel tuner wont kick in after the mod is loaded.

Settings are like both CPU max @ 1566mhz.

Scheduler is ondemand balanced with SIO.

Zram off.

Vsync enabled.

and i score in antutu 4000 xD

It's like one core is being used....
[HTC Sensation] NightM@re:
Sorted
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
maybe you forgot the difference

how about the second phase frequency

by default:

- second phase frequency = 1134mhz

- performance preset -> sampling rate = 0.1 second

- 3D GPU = 300mhz

mod:

- second phase (my suggestion in aroma) = 810mhz

- balance preset, samping rate = 0.5 second

=> these settings will decrease the score but better battery

using the mod is never a good choice for benchmarking but the real user experience is not much different from stock and it saves some battery

even my settings:

- ondemand

- i/o: sio

- max cpu0 = 972, max cpu1 = 810

- min = 192

- battery save preset in aroma

- second phase = 810

- 3D GPU = 266mhz

- vsync = on

=> I still got ~6600 with antutu

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:41 PM ----------

it is script manager

I added because it is helpful for adding flush script in the home screen

In the next version, I'll remove it because users can download it easily from play store
[HTC Sensation] NightM@re:
opss , my bad i thought it was normal file manager (no idea wthat flush scripts are :D) .
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
it helps you to optimize the phone when you have some lag

clean up some useless ram and refresh the device

if you like it, follow my instruction in the second post, 10 pictures

the second way to run this script is open android terminal and type:

su
flush
[HTC Sensation] NightM@re:
dude , please stop ripping of my thanks

i got only 10 per day :)

#Respect , one of the best guys here in XDA
[HTC Sensation] victoryo:
Yeah iam aware of those settings:

- second phase (my suggestion in aroma) = 810mhz

- balance preset, samping rate = 0.5 second

But i also prefer them for the better battery. And also when using the phone or gaming

those settings aren't a problem.

It's weird because i've rebooted the phone again and waited some time and did an Antutu benchmark again

and now is score 8800, so what i normally score! Also rom is feeling smooth and fast again.

Hmmm.. Hope it stays like this :P
[HTC Sensation] NightM@re:
for somereason i can't see the ".."

:\ here is a screen
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
maybe it is due to the newer version. UI is changed by the author

I posted the very old version

press "up" button on the top or just press the Back touch key
[HTC Sensation] NightM@re:
tried both , didn't help

I'l just reflash the MOD , thanks
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
so delete smmanager

type su and flush in android terminal is better

To enable fastcharge add this line at the end of 69force

Because I want fastcharge :D

Add the line and then take a look at kernel tuner and you will notice its enabled.

[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
or just use kernel tuner

go to misc tweaks -> switch fastcharge on -> done

=> I'm using this right now
[HTC Sensation] :
I don't want to use Kernel Tuner because I have System Tuner.

I think it does not make sense to have multiple CPU apps installed.

Edit: Does fast charge also works if the phone is off?

Use Kernel Tuner from play store! i have system tuner and kernel tuner, because i need both. but kernel tuner is the best for users. it can control totally the kernel, and remember to remove the other kernel's scripts from init.d, i don't like this way to set the kernel. My kernel haven't any script in init.d.
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
hey, the same as me :)

I also have android tuner (the newer version of system tuner) + kernel tuner

each of them has some unique features that I need

I've installed kernel tuner now too.

I think I need only the fast charge option there, but ok...

The kernel is running really good btw.

Fast and smooth with ViperS.
[HTC Sensation] s0geking:
Hello,:laugh:

i would like to know:

-Does the take control is already useful or it is better to use the aroma mod?? Or i can use both??:confused:

-What is better for the battery??2 able core at 1.5ghz or 1 core able at 1.72gh with one off??
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
takecontrol v2 is outdated and now I replace it with the aroma mod which is much more functional

takecontrol only applies 3 presets that pacha chose and it can't be changed

DO NOT turn off 1 core because it will make your device unstable

I tried to turn off 1 core by takecontrol v2 but my phone randomly rebooted sometimes and 1 question: Why did you buy a dual-core phone for???

I believe that turning off 1 core doesnot give better battery but worse battery life

because with 1 core running at 1512mhz and 2cores running 972mhz => 972 is still a lot cooler than 1 core at 1512mhz although it may not be faster

AROMA mod is gonna be out soon. I'm in the final step of testing
[HTC Sensation] s0geking:
ok, you right about the 2 cores, it is what i think when i read the explanation of the save battery.( i want to use the 2 cores)

I try the take control battery save for 1 week and my phone is very stable.V6 integrated it on the elegancia rom with the bricked kernel.

did you remove the fsync control in sys/class/misc/fsynccontrol/fsync_enabled

I saw dyn_fsync but I dont know how to config it and how it works

Any bug for the new kernel?? i'm waiting feedbacks :)
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
it seems that everyone is happy now

I dont see any bug

Just someone blamed about black screen -> removed kernel tuner and no more problem

I also had that only once but at that time my battery was too low

so I think there is no problem found yet
[HTC Sensation] Sharpi1:
I guess fsync is not the Same as vsync?
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
yes. totally 2 different things
[HTC Sensation] Sharpi1:
Vsync is on in this Kernel? I will try the Kernel, when elegancia will get the next update
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
vsync is on ALL kernels

but it is always enabled by default

turning vsync off creates some glitches on the screen and it is bad for gaming but increase FPS and benchmark score

@ XxXPachaXxX

Kernel 4.1.9 and mod 3.8.2 - they running stable and very smooth on my XE with the latest CD rom.

Perfect job... I haved used the kernel tuner for tests and it looks that he is a little bit better then the

AndroidTuner. Because a more easier use and more important the handling. The technic is nearly

the same, but makes things more simple in use for the most users.

Last but not at least, very wel done bro....
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
I just updated the mod 3.8.2 to AIO v1.0, you wanna try :)
[HTC Sensation] s0geking:
Just try the kernel with AIO mod and the new Elegancia.'s rom... Whaoo, very smooth.

Just test couple of hours, and I am very. Maybe, the perfect kernel. I will recommend it. :)
[HTC Sensation] spiderio:
if I try the kernel only without aroma, it's works really well and I love it

but somehow if I select Aroma, it's causing bootloops..

btw i'm on viperS 1.6.0

just want to report this, not complaint or everything
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
bootloop or random reboot?

and which settings did you choose
[HTC Sensation] spiderio:
bootloops...

settings

Gov : ondemand

Sched : cfq

maxfreq :1566

minfreq : 192

uv :9+

that's all

glad you post.. :good::good::good::good::good:
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
viperS? did you touch anything in venom tweaks for undervolting?

it should combine with -9% and the final uv is ~100mV (if you set -50mV)

because I notice nobody has got reboot or bootloop with 9%
[HTC Sensation] spiderio:
let me try again with fresh install of ViperS, and I'll let you know
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
choose 9% instead of 9+

and check in venom tweaks -> the first number of 192mhz must be 725mV

if it is 700mV or 712.52mV => set global voltage to 0mV !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] spiderio:
Ok. this is my reports

First, Installing kernel...

the global voltage is 725mV,

I haven't set any settings in venom.

all Fresh..

if I have the kernel only

and take the 9plus/21uv to init.d set permission

reboot..

my phone booting fine

Another test,

first remove 21uv from init.d

install Awesome kernel mod that you made

use settings like before

ondemand

cfq

max 1566

min 192

uv 9%+

still bootloop :cowboy: :confused:
[HTC Sensation] walkinhotdog:
hello, thanks for the sweet kernel. works really well so far. i flashed the file in the second post but do not see controls for mpdecision or thermald in kernel tuner. are they actually working? also, is zram on or off by default? thanks
[HTC Sensation] axetilen:
so weird :eek:

dont use the mod, I'll find out the cause later

my settings are:

ondemand (you can't choose this if you choose pyd -> it is set automatically)

SIO -> the best. cfq is so slow

max = 972

min = 192

9%+

I'll try to choose exactly the same as your settings -> unless only your phone has bootloop :eek:
