Are you using the experimental kernel or the one included in the ROM image?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mojoffdawal:
Hi all,

Read through this forum and ”how to flash ICS roms with s-on” but didn't find an answer to this:

Do I have to flash the kernel as well since I'll have to fastboot flash the boot.img or is the kernel zip file just for people who want to go between experimental and stable? Thanks!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jcicora:
Ahhh that explains it.... I thought the ROM had the exptimental kernel. Thanks!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sino8r:
Yo scverhagen, anyway to make this modification to the exp kernel? Basically, the camera flash will work below 30% battery. Doing the edit manually won't work. For some reason, the kernel has to be recompiled for the change to be accepted. It that something anyone else is interested in? I'm really surprised this isn't a standard edit for every custom kernel by now...

/sys/camera_led_status/low_cap_limit 30 to /sys/camera_led_status/low_cap_limit 1, 5, or 10? (Whichever works lol)

This is a common issue with Wi-Fi calling on CM for our device. It only happens with outgoing calls. Normal outgoing calls don't have this issue. I think it's an issue with the app, but i have little to no knowledge in this area...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] GravvyTrain:
As far as I know, the kernel zips are updates you can install in recovery, but I am not sure if you can update if you are s-on. And I couldn't tell you where to start in order to make that update zip into a boot.img.

Someone made a boot.img file for exp kernel r4 that might work; on page #20 of this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32544109&postcount=198
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
If I understand your question...the boot.img IS the kernel but as far as flashing a ROM goes you will always want to save the boot.img flash for the last step. The reason being that about 80%+ of the developers play it safe & wipe the boot partition upon initializing the flashing process for their own ROM. This is to make sure there aren't any sectors that aren't overwritten with the new kernel that could contain extraneous info that would "confuse" the new ROM.

I think I'm experiencing battery drain, battery dropped from 60 to 30 less than 30 mins with 3G + 1 game, and after I rebooted the phone, the battery went up to 53... is it the phone, ROM or I need to get a new battery?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
As he said, the boot.img contains the kernel and usually the ramdisk. If you are S-ON you flash the boot.img with fastboot.

The kernel zip files are for those who are S-OFF and are flashed with CWM or whatever they use. They contains the actual kernel zImage but not the ramdisk.

I *think* you can also take the zImage out of the kernel zip files and flash to your phone but only AFTER you flash the original boot.img but if you want to try that do a fastboot boot zImage and that should boot the phone with the zImage without flashing it. If it works you can fastboot flash.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] restopi:
I'm s-on and I usually first full wipe, then install rom from recovery, then fastboot rom boot.img. it usually works fine however somebody said some posts ago that even with that on s-on the boot.img may not overwrite everything (noob here so not sure).

Also, how do we know if r4 was properly flashed? I don't see any references in about phone screenshot
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Did you by any chance notice whether the date has changed from the previous version? There has been more than one that that was the only difference I've been able to find myself.

If you're concerned about not getting everything wiped properly just do what I do. Go to Blue6IX's Development Thread in my signature & scroll down to his wipe scripts & read about those. I just keep them copied to a folder called $$Tools (so they will always be at the top of the list) & I'll always have access any time I need them. Not had an unstable flash since.....

Flashing experimental kernel..

Sorry if this has already been answered but I couldn't find it...

If the device is S-ON, how do you flash the experimental kernel? Clockwork can NOT be used to flash it, correct?

Should fastboot be used? If so, exactly what command should be typed in?

Thanks for any answers!

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
fastboot flash boot.img will not work as the experimental kernel isnt given in a boot image. Extract the zImage from the file then to test

fastboot boot /path/to/zImage

If it works:

fastboot flash /path/to/zImage
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] demkantor:
thanks, havent played with the doubleshot much yet (still waiting on parts!) i rooted and did the wire trick the first day i got it so i didnt read up too much on how/why to flash the kernel when s-on as i didnt need too.

thanks for clearing it up, dont want to give the wrong advice!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] anitgandhi:
can we flash the kernel zips on any rom, especially if it's using your base (aka the new badosp)?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
You can pull the boot.img and modules from the ROM and flash it, I'm running the r5 kernel with my aokp milestone 6 port
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] anitgandhi:
i'm s-off, so i should be able to flash just the zip in recovery right?

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
I would assume you're running the stock rom.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] theansible:
That worked, except I had to type "fastboot flash kernel /path/to/zImage" instead of "fastboot flash /path/to/zImage".

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sino8r:
Ouch... so true though ;) Most are already implemented especially into CM roms. There are plenty of apps that do this like McTweaker and they are mostly simple build.prop and init.d tweaks that are fun to make into scripts yourselves. That's the only way to learn... do it yourself, right?

Major Bug

I am reporting a major bug for the R5, the usb tethering and wifi hotspot do not work. Tested on windows 7 x64 and os x 10.8. The previous R3 did work, R4 was not tested.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Coug76:
Funny. WiFi tethering worked like a boss for me on R4 and R5. Did it on Vista, XP, iOS, and Android 2.3, 4.0 and 4.1. Perhaps you have a setting off?

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] aeroxy:
Perhaps. I tried the default setting. There weren't other option for USB tethering but I believe two options WPA and WPA2, both did not work.

I am using the experimental kernel r5, and it is the first time portable hotspot has worked in cm9 for me... One of the alphas probably worked as well. I flashed r5 exp kernel over r4 rom , and It's running good with OK battery considering I use stock batteries.

USB storage

I'm running R4 right now. Downloading R5 currently. With R4 however I'm not capable of connecting via USB. I noticed some people saying transfer rates were slow but I can't even get it to connect. I boot into recovery to transfer any files I can't or don't want to do over Wi-Fi.

Flashing R5 now and I'll report back if the bug is persistent.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sino8r:
Guys, PLEASE quit report bugs when there aren't any. These are all confirmed to work by other users so... these are personal issues. Don't get me wrong now... all of us older/experienced users, modders, developers are here to help but proper terminology is crucial to many developers whether for comprehension or just not offending them. Please watch your wording a bit. That's all...

As far as your wifi hotspot goes, it works but it is flaky at times. Initial connection can take quite a while but it does connect eventually. Some users have reported that 3rd party tether apps help and flashing the exp kernel might be worth a try. If you want to try a different version (older), copy your link to download and change the last number to whatever is appropriate.

Usb storage connects and works fine although many have reported it to have slow transfer rates (which seem to be typical of all ICS roms).

And finally, usb tether works via 3rd party app which makes me think that it could be repaired natively. I recommend Clockwork Tether as the cheapest alternative.

Hope that helps! Sorry for being picky but it cuts down on the confusion and helps the devs ;)

P.S. If you want a sneak peek at the next kernel... check out the commits in the exp branch. Some nice additions coming including the much needed camera flash limiter being pushed back from 30 to 5! :highfive:

Small bug

Report a bug I found. When headset is plugged in, the device's notification still goes through the speaker. Also when using google voice, and voice will come out of the speaker even if headset is plugged in and the application's using wired headset is selected. I will need to select the speaker, and select back to wired headset option to get the audio output to the headset.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] xzuhto:
I don't mean to report something you think is secluded to my device, but someone has to be the first to say something in case it's not.

Now that I have r5 flashed it doesn't just time out trying to connect, but it also only claims to connect on the phone. Is this related to the slow transfer speeds? Is it slow to appear on the computer as well? None of my devices are recognizing it. By any means feel free to suggest something rather then tell me I should keep my mouth shut.

Edit: On a side note I'm not sure what you mean by correct terminology. It's a bug on my phone regardless if it's just mine or not. Hence the reason I noted I'd see if it continued with a new flash.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sino8r:
I didn't mean to seem so harsh... I get people need help with stuff. Have you tried reinstalling your usb drivers or is there possibly a newer 3rd party app that might be causing some conflict? As far as the slow speeds go... it's just a little bit slower than GB was but it works fine none the less. Do you happen to have "ADB over network" checked (in settings/development) because that could cause it not to show when connected via usb. Otherwise... might be time for a wipe ;)

---------- Post added at 11:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 PM ----------

Now this I've heard before... seems to be related to CM9 and the headset. I do recall something about it being picky with particular headsets but not 100% on this since I use bluetooth headphones for music/talk 95% of the time. There might be a solution in the giant cm9 thread somewhere. I'd give it a search...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] xzuhto:
It's alright I completely understand the need to not have the same issues discussed repeatedly when they've already been worked out. Or in this case something that may not even be an issue at all. I was a little curt in my response which wasn't really intentional, just came across wrong.

That option is not selected. However I turned off USB debugging and it actually tried to install drivers. It's beyond me why it would need any considering how many roms haven't had this problem. The install failed however. I do not think the phone is being seen as a proper mass storage device. As far as I know none of my 3rd party apps should be affecting this in any way since they never have before.

R5 is a total beast. Can't comment on bugs because I haven't been paying attention but whatever battery crap we've been dealing with appears to finally be gone for good.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
I've been looking at it. I find it rather difficult to navigate through the source. Whether its th kernel or whats brought in from the device folder in the android build.

Its weird because if you set the values manually from 0 to 1 the lights come on.

They're just not registering from the key press AND the code looks right.... its the strangest thing.

I don't know if it's any help but Tbalden fixed that for Virtuous Inquisition a while back. I felt uncomfortable linking another website but on page 16 of the Inquisition thread over on Rootz, Tbalden posted his flashable fix.

New Release: r7

The kernel has been updated. (r7).

What about r6? I didn't see undervolting alone as a good enough reason for a full release.

This move may be controversial--I have moved many of the experimental features to the main kernel because they should be stable enough for everyday use. From now on, the exp kernel will be used to test new features and which will be moved to stable once they are adequately tested.

Take a look at the first post.

FM radio?

Hi,

I'm loving CM9.1 on my Doubleshot, I had previously tried various Virtuous roms but they weren't too stable but CM9.1 has been very good.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rtiangha:
I installed the "stable" R7 kernel on my Doubleshot and it automatically reboots shortly after loading. It dosn't give me enough time to load a program to change settings. I reinstalled R5 and it went away. I suspect this is because the undervolting settings are too aggressive for my Doubleshot.

Like overclocking and undervolting a PC, each machine is built differently and may have different tolerances than other machines of the same make and model.

Is there any way to get a kernel version *without* the undervolt/gpu overclock settings by default? I'm happy to set those myself, but I don't think this Doubleshot can handle the new default values in the latest "stable" kernel.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AdamWill:
in theory I think rtianga is right. no undervolt is going to be safe for all devices. the stock voltage is what it is because that's what the processor manufacturer determined was the minimum voltage needed for all the shipped processors to work. manufacturers are perfectly well aware of the benefits of low voltage, they don't ship overvolted processors just for grins. undervolting/OCing are neat tweaks for those who have a lucky processor but I don't think it's a good idea to do them by default in 'stable' kernel releases.
