What do you mean? It works fine for me. You can't swipe to fast. I have been using it since 0.6 and works perfect.

On another note, what is this multitouch issue I hear about? What is the issue exactly, asking because I am currious.
[HTC Incredible S] H.e.S.a.M:
i mean that in other kernel (g11) i swipe from search to menu or home to back key and it's work but in this kernel i should swipe from home to menu and sometimes it takes screenshots
[HTC Incredible S] Evilus:
It works for me I swipe from Menu to search to unlock and from search to menu to lock. Welll... I actually swipe from home to little after back to unlock and from search to menu to lock. It's like inbetween the buttons

It takes screenshot if you swipe all the way to hope, you can disable this. iirc OP has posted it in 2nd post .
[HTC Incredible S] MrToastbrot:
Add ro.htc.framework.screencapture=false to your build.prop. This will disable the HTC Screenshot function an will use the ICS-Stock Screenshot with Power & Vol-Down.

Now when you s2w it doesn't takes any screenshots.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
From what I have read and seen, pressing 3 fingers on the screen locks the multitouch and causes some glitch in certain games. The file that I was linked to earlier was the cypress touchscreen driver and we are using atmel, so it would not do anything for us, but I'm still looking for a fix.
[HTC Incredible S] Evilus:
Oh ok, I think I may have noticed this while trying Emulators(Snes for instance, you could try that too see if you can reproduce it if that helps you fixing it. As there at times or rather most of the time you need to use 3 fingers)
[HTC Incredible S] interaser:
somehow chinese dev fixed the multi touching issue on z6rom... if you need any file from the rom, let me know.

thank you.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Not unless they have a kernel source code around somewhere. History suggests the answer to this is no.
[HTC Incredible S] TheDareDevil:
Will any of my data be erased if I flash the kernel?
[HTC Incredible S] Evilus:
Data stays intact so just go ahead flash it =)
[HTC Incredible S] incrediblealex:
How do you flash this kernel onto vipervivo?
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
Flash 0.3 Project X

Then flash 0.7 sense 4

reboot, done :)
[HTC Incredible S] @di:
Mark you missed on wiping cache and dalvik cache after flashing .7.:)
[HTC Incredible S] TheDareDevil:
Is the link to the 0.3 version of the kernel broken? Doesn't open for me
[HTC Incredible S] 2uk3y:
i can open the link, no problem here. :good:
[HTC Incredible S] dr.pythagora:
about "before flashing a new rom"

hi, just one question, probably not at the heart of this thread but most probably useful for not the experts.

often, before flashing a new rom, or restoring, it is recommended to

a) 'factory data reset, wipe cache and dalvik and format system".

fine. note that in recovery, there is another option

b) 'format all the partitions (except sdcard)".

does anyone know what is the difference between a) and b), or the advantage using one rather than the other?
[HTC Incredible S] nlooooo:
a) wipes only data partition (which should include dalvik on IncS but not necessary on other devices) and formats system and cache partition.

b) formats all partitions system+data+cache+boot+android_secure folder on sd card.

Anyway, second is recommened, but usually every rom formats boot and system partition (obligatory) and some of them format data (not necessarily).
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
I have read that wiping cache and dalvik is useless with kernel installs. I rebuilds app caches and has nothing to do with the kernel, just wastes time re building caches that didn't need to be wiped

But, I wipe anyway :D

[HTC Incredible S] botonic:
After I disable the htc screenshot function, the s2w working great but the ICS Stock screen capture with power + vol-down is not working. Do I have to change any other attributes in the build.prop?
[HTC Incredible S] MrToastbrot:
Just hold at the same time power and vol-down for one second and a bit more.
[HTC Incredible S] botonic:
Thank you your advice. First I pressed the power button before the volume button that's why it not works.

:)
[HTC Incredible S] H.e.S.a.M:
hi

i flash Sabsa Prime 8.5 after that i flash G11 Kernel. and then after 2a days i flash Redux 0.3 Project X and then 0.7 Redux Sense 4. but my wifi doesn't work :( whats the problem?
[HTC Incredible S] 2uk3y:
do u already clear cache and dalvik? or maybe u can restore back your previous kernel before G11, see if problem solve.
[HTC Incredible S] MrToastbrot:
Put the bcm4329.ko from the zip to /system/lib/modules and set the permissions to rw-r--r--
[HTC Incredible S] H.e.S.a.M:
how can i restore my previous kernel? it's already redux 0.7. sabsa prime 8.5 uses redux 0.7 for stuck
[HTC Incredible S] 2uk3y:
in that case, just reflash sabsa again and u will get redux 0.7 :D

or u can try other kernel like XS to see if can fix your wifi problem.
[HTC Incredible S] TheDareDevil:
Hey nonverbose, are you working on a 3.0 kernel for AOSP JB?

Cool kernel btw, but how do you activate all those s2w gestures?
[HTC Incredible S] interaser:
when I flash 0.3 Project X and after 0.7 on ViperIncS 1.0.1 it changes the ramdisk or not? thank you.

is it safe to flash it?

p.s. does the S2W, 2CR works with this kernel?

thank you
[HTC Incredible S] @di:
Nonverbose,

Viper venom ROM thread is closed temporarily. Will it be possible for you to provide a fix for tethering issue for vipervenom Rom?:confused:
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
It won't change the ramdisk. Because the kernel is flashed using the anykernel method (I think that's what its called) it will use the existing ramdisk (the one from venom, or the last boot.img you flashed)

Yes its safe to flash but if you flashed another boot.img after flashing the ROM, you might want to dirty flash the ROM or fastboot flash the boot.img to get the stock ramdisk

Sent from my Nexus 7
[HTC Incredible S] interaser:
as I understand it does not have s2w function only 2wcr?
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
This kernel has s2w. But I have seen reports of it not working on Venom but I have not tried it myself. But S2W definitely works on other roms that I have tried
[HTC Incredible S] interaser:
I just flashed s2w enable zip from overhere

S2W-Enable.zip - [Click for QR Code] (142.9 KB, 176 views)

and s2w still does not work. I guess it was disabled in 0.6 version :(

changelog: for 0.6

-Disabled swappiness
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
It might be reversed, as it is on some kernels.

I would advise to turn it on in trickster mod as that seems to be the best and easiest way :D
[HTC Incredible S] interaser:
s2w working flawlessly with trickster mod :)

p.s. a lot of people use lionheart, smartassv2, ondemand => which one is the best, I guess no one really knows; me too :(
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
cool, good to know it works :) Which rom? Venom?

I use lionheart because it keeps my CPU clock down to the minimum it needs. Ondemand keeps it at the max an awful lot in my experience, and I am after battery life now and smoothness, so I go with lionheart as it doesn't really lag in my light-moderate use (no games)

Smartass has sleep/wake profiles built in to save battery when the screen is off

I like ondemand, intellidemand and lionheart :)
[HTC Incredible S] interaser:
yes ViperIncS 1.0.1
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
At this point I don't plan on supporting any aosp kernel. At least not until I get it to a point where I am happy with the kernels performance. You use sweep 2 wake by running your finger from home-search to turn screen on, and search - home to turn screen off.

Yes of course, version 0.3 has a boot.img so it will change the ramdisk. S2W and 2WCR are always enabled by default unless otherwise stated. Swappiness is not sweep 2 wake.

Most governor's have a suspend frequency. InteractiveX , ondemandX and brazilianwax I have set to 368640. Lagfree, scary and smartassv2 I have set to 245760.
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
I stand corrected, it will change the ramdisk because 0.3 has the full boot.img.

So the point of flashing 0.3 before 0.7 is because of the ramdisk?
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Ramdisk, firmware, and an init.d script...
[HTC Incredible S] interaser:
I am confused :( but if kernel 0.3 changes ramdisk then all the improvements we have in Viper's ramdisk are gone?

why s2w does not work without trickster mod or with s2w file inside init.d folder?

and is it possible to have a patch to enable s2w from Search direction to home as it is more convenient

(i just touch only firest 2 buttons search button and back button and screen is on then I set in tweaks unlock with menu and the screen is unlocked

and to turn off I just need to touch only the first 2 buttons: home to menu and screen is off...

which file do I need to take from G1 kernel to have this feature. )

thank you.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
I'm not supporting any stolen Rom lol. You can compare the differences in the init.rc and init.vivo.rc files. Reversing the direction if s2w involves changing and recompiling the kernel, its not as simple as just a file.
[HTC Incredible S] interaser:
G11 KERNEL 2.0.2 is not from stolen rom. It is posted here on the website.
[HTC Incredible S] MrToastbrot:
He meat ViperVIVO and it was a joke... :cyclops:
[HTC Incredible S] TheDareDevil:
1.2GHz with lagfree mode in setcpu is really really smooth

Why doesn't onavo extend work though?
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
I honestly don't have the time to go through every app on the market and figure out why some don't work. Have you checked if it's functioning on another kernel?
[HTC Incredible S] TheDareDevil:
Of course you don't. I thought you may have omitted due to some other issues.

It says that there isn't a "TUN/TAP" module that is required for it to work.

It works on stock and kaijuras kernel
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Well this is much more useful information. The tun.ko is a loadable module, you can load it either by an init.d script or terminal emulator with the command

insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko

As I now know that someone is/wants to actually use the module, I will build it into the kernel next release which should be in the next few days.

if I want to install redux kernel on the [ROM][Oct-07-2012][STOCK][RUU][ICS][Sense 3.6][WWE] 4.14.405.2 (root | busybox) v2.0 by tpbklake

I have to install version 0.3 sense 3.6 and after version 0.7 sense 3.6?

thank you

p.s. why all the time we have to install the version 0.3? :(
[HTC Incredible S] Evilus:
because 0.3 has proper boot image that makes proper ram disk needed.

Update 0.8 released

Check out the changelog for details.

Whatever that app was that needed vpn, it should be working now, possibly even wifi direct. I will need confirmation on these though.

Lower frequencies have been re-enabled as requested, just be aware there may be issues with it. Check out the first post for details.

As usual let me know what you think, I do read these posts and I try to address as many issues as I can but I really need you guys to be more descriptive. i.e. telling me there's "lag sometimes". I cant trace this. Take note of when the lag occurs, under what conditions and let me know what they are. It will be a big help in making this a better kernel.

Enjoy!!

Hey Nonverbose,

If I am using ViperVenom, which version should I go for? Sabsa or Project X?
[HTC Incredible S] ZaySk:
Nonverbose, as a kernel dev what scheduler would you recommend and why?

Edit: I just checked out your kernel sources on github and noticed you have a branch called cygwin. Are you developing this kernel in windows on cygwin? I thought that wasn't possible?
[HTC Incredible S] Evilus:
Updated from 0.6 to 0.8 and it seems less laggy now. At first on startup was hella laggy but it seems phone was synching something, but after 2-3 min it was fine. Been using it for some time now and seems a lot less laggy.

Good job Noverbose.

Nonverbose... Kernel is good smooth lagfree..

WiFi direct I will test n let u know..

One issue to point out: touch sensitive keys remain on even after screen locks..

But its very rare.. only sometime it happens..

Otherwise all smooth great job
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
I have not tested the venom Rom yet so I have no idea. The devs on that Rom should be able to tell you.

my current fav is deadline coz its freshly tweaked.

I'm using ezterry's experimental toolchain to compile on cygwin which makes things very convenient.

[HTC Incredible S] ZaySk:
Yeah, deadline has always been my 2nd choice behind noop. Thanks.

Holy s**t, that's freaking cool. Have you used Linux Mint 13 before? I highly recommend it if you haven't and the console runs commands significantly faster than cygwin on windows does. (dsixda's kitchen seems to run almost twice as fast than on windows) I suppose that's a moot point if you have a powerful computer, I'm on a laptop core-i3(SB) so all the extra efficiency I can get, the better!
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
I did install it, but my setup doesn't agree with linux (i5-IB onboard gfx LCD tv Bluetooth kb/mouse, a htpc) I had issues with all of these things with linux. I also managed to wipe about 1.5tb of movies and that was the final straw. I will try again maybe next major release when its matured a bit.

I do manage to make a kernel in around 5 mins on cygwin which is not too bad I guess, but when you're running 20+ builds per release it can add up.

Again, the 0.3 Version is only for Sense 4. With Sense 3.6, just install the 0.8 Sense 3.6 Kernel. 2WCR and WiFi Tethering are working, cause this kernel is based on HTC Source and this Kernel was made for 3.6, so all is working.

Sorry, I may be wrong to explain in English. In the games, when the screen is touched more than three fingers begin touchscreen false positives in those places where you do not touch the screen. But it is evident not only in games. You can check it yourself by downloading from Google Play Market special programs-testers, such as MultiTouchTester or MultitouchTest, or other similar. In the settings "Display & gestures" > "HTC gestures" must be unchecked.

Here is the boot Image of Venom

As you asked earlier, the boot image of Venom ROM is uploaded. Hope you fix almost all the issues :)
[HTC Incredible S] ZaySk:
That's strange one would've thought the latest versions of Linux would support IB properly. I feel your pain though, I did something similar with Ubuntu 10.04. At first, I tried to install 10.04 in a dual boot and everything went fine until I booted into Ubuntu after installation. It wasn't recognizing my wireless card so I did some google-ing and found a way to install Broadcom wireless drivers offline in 10.04, so I did it. Didn't fix it, so I booted back into Windows 7 and the wireless wasn't being recognized anymore. I looked at the computers specs in control panel and found out it has an Atheros wireless card, I was thinking of my old laptop that had a Broadcom card in it.

I wasn't able to reinstall the drivers so I had to wipe the computer and reinstall windows from scratch. Worst part was, it's my mom's laptop not mine so I felt like a douche and an idiot haha. I backed up her important things, and she didn't even get mad she just said "oh well it's good practice for you to fix computers".

When the next release of Linux Mint comes out, it'll probably be based off the latest release of Ubuntu. Use the wubi installer for the version of Ubuntu that Linux Mint is based off of and that way you can tell if the drivers will play nice with your hardware. Worked perfectly for me. :good:

Btw thanks for the great kernel, it's my favorite.

Edit: Out of curiosity, what packages are required to compile on Cygwin? Is is similar to the requirements for the kitchen?
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
The main issue was the intelHD4000 gfx support on my tv. It's overscanned and has an issue if I turn my tv off or it times out and I turn it back on everything is green. I also had issues with wireless not being recognized, I suck at using grub that's why I lost all my movies, my Bluetooth keyboard and mouse wasn't supported out of the box and because I cheaped out and bought a h77 motherboard, I have no option to use a vm. I'm a spoiled windows user and not that linux savvy so I gave up (for now).

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1686310 Here's ezterry's thread for his toolchain, it lists all the requirements. I'm not sure it will compile more than just the kernel though, so it may not meet your requirements.
[HTC Incredible S] ZaySk:
That would be a pretty glaring issue lol. VM's aren't to useful for compiling source code unless you have a LOT of RAM anyways. This laptop and it's 6GBs of RAM wasn't enough to sync the CM9 repo on a Ubuntu VM. I doubt you'd need as much to compile a kernel, but I'm not sure. You used grub to resize the partitions I'm assuming? Resizing partitions always has me crossing my fingers, I really don't wanna mess something up. Luckily I was able to allocate space to Linux Mint without screwing up again.

Linux is pretty intimidating at first, even for nerds. It took me a while to get familiar with how things worked, but now that I'm getting better with Linux I'm really enjoying it. I often find myself booting into Linux Mint 13 instead of Windows 7 simply because it feels like a smoother and more responsive OS. Plus I got a Jellybean theme for Cinnamon :)

Cool, thanks for the link. I was merely curious as to how it was done.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Yeah I have plenty of Ram and it's cheaper than a new HDD, but that idea is out the wiindow anyway. I was using grub as a boot manager but now that you mention it I had problems with gparted as well, lol. I might bite the bullet and try yet another install on a thumbdrive soon as I recently purchased a usb3. Actually looking at the thread to give you a link may have helped me, as there is a patch for wireless which I might need :)

On another note: can someone confirm this is working?

Redux_0.8_Venom.zip

Thanks.
[HTC Incredible S] ZaySk:
I can't wait to build my own computer hopefully sometime next year. As you said RAM's cheap, so I'll probably stuff 12-16GB in for future proofing. Along with an i5 IB (unlockable K series) it should be a great gaming/dev machine. Good luck, hope all goes well :)
