[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
Snuzzo, in 1.3 have you fixed Wheatly (I saw in the change log you edited the parameters so it wouldn't jump as much, but I don't know if that is what had it ruined, which is why I ask)? If you have, would it be better to run Lazy or Wheatly?
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
This might help some and yes I brought back the previous configuration found in 1.1b
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
What does he mean by screen off governor? Is there an app out that will change my governor from Lazy to Wheatly when I turn the screen off? If so, what is it? I've only used the default performance tab in AOSP to change it to lazy and set my CPU speeds. I had no idea you could set governors to change under certain conditions.
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
Setcpu, rom toolbox among many others
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
Android tuner
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
I downloaded this and went to CPU settings and I see that my current governor is Lazy (which makes sense because I set that from the performance tab) and my CPU speeds match up. Where do I go to make wheatly activate as my screen off governor? Can you give me a guideline? ie: CPU > blah > blah > blah
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
Settings>active tweaks>screen off behavior :thumbup:

Rom toolbox will do this too.
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
Sweet, thanks a lot. What should the max frequency be set to?
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
I have mine set at 1026 Max and the minimum is the absolute minimum. Screen off wheatley.

But, here's the problem, you will have to manually set it back to whatever other governor you want once screen is back on cause it will stay on wheatley.

So, I would recommend using rom toolbox (I use pro) and go to: CPU control>profiles and set screen on to whatever you want and screen off to wheatley. *my 2¢*

P.s. keep android tuner for the battery stats and graphs they are awesome!!!
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
I thought having two governor controllers was bad. I wouldn't want android tuner to conflict with ROM toolbox.

What is the priority setting for on it? I'm suppose to set a profile for the screen-off Wheatley setting, correct? That's what I'm doing now, anyway.
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but as long as you don't make any selections that would conflict w/ Rom toolbox you will be fine. Anyway, I've always had both. No issues
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
It really depends on the setup usually its fine.

Just clear the app data from android tuner and uninstall it then reboot. Then install rom toolbox and get it all setup. After that's running good install android tuner ans just don't mess with the CPU tab.

If things go wonky you will know thwyre conflicting and need to uninstall system tuner/android tuner
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Need some end users feedback on totally disabling fsync. I know you can run the risk of some data loss during heavy write scenarios but the trade-off is some battery life and a touch of performance? I could 2 different versions, one as experimental. Thoughts?
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
I never had any problems on my fascinate with fsync disabled so it would be worth a try. Id be willing to test that's for sure
[HTC Rezound] xdadevnube:
Okay, so my phone doesn't work with this kernel well. I am getting constant screen freezes and I have to turn my screen off and on in order to get back to normal.

I am on Nils Business 3.6 v 6.3 and S-Off.

I did clean install without clearing cache, etc. I have tried wiping also.

Could it be my phone doesn't handle the underclock?
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Ok thank you. Need more users to chime in before adding you to my mid-week beta.

What governor? i/o scheduler? Did you have this on any previous version? Have you ever run **insert your cpu governor** before?
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
It could be the undervolt, are you sure you flashed the correct version, either global or ICS OTA
[HTC Rezound] bik2101:
what does fsync do? extra battery life and performance are always nice :)
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
File Synchronization. Yeah I think i will do, guys will definitely have to let me know if you run into any data loss though.
[HTC Rezound] xdadevnube:
I'm sure I used global. My CPU must be a poor sample.

I haven't tried different governors until I tried troubleshooting the issue. I haven't touched the scheduler. Switching to interactive didn't help.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
YGPM xdadevnube

I will revisit totally disabling fsync later on. Ran into a few driver errors and I don't have much time today.
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
Thanks snuzzo
[HTC Rezound] rsage:
Hey Snuzzo, love the kernel.

Is disabling fsync the same as or similar to disabling file system journaling? Back in my Samsung Epic 4G days (Galaxy S), it became all the rage to disable file system journaling to gain a little bit better performance. Data loss was the risk - which did happen to a number of users including myself.

Just curious if fsync is the same/similar...
[HTC Rezound] replica9000:
Filesystem of the sdcard? If it's formatted fat32 then there is no journaling. But disabling journaling with a filesystem that supports might see better performance, and increase the life span of the card.
[HTC Rezound] rsage:
No they were turning off journaling on the internal NAND memory - not the sd card(s).
[HTC Rezound] soundfx440:
It's been a little bit since I was able to test this out again, but finally got a chance again last night. Running on Funky #6 (Oct 9 05:56:40) and rage 1.5 with init.d, and still getting reports from the other end of the phone line saying they hear themselves echoing. Anything I can try or information I can get you? Open to testing anything you need.

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Try flashing Joelz BAMF kernel to see if it still occurs and report back.

@rsage

Similar but not the same.
[HTC Rezound] soundfx440:
Just tried it out with BAMF Kernel and same thing unfortunately.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Yeah means its in our device configurations for cm9. That helps a little.

Thanks man!!!
[HTC Rezound] soundfx440:
No problem at all! If you need a tester for anything, I'd be happy to give it a go.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Thank you Lucas & Brandon for the kind contribution. Always appreciated. :)

Going to skip a weekly build and work on other things.
[HTC Rezound] replica9000:
My battery life for first 50%

^ ^ ^

click me.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
I like that font. What settings are you running on what rom?
[HTC Rezound] replica9000:
That's the Ubuntu font.

Adrenaline 2.0

screen off profile = wheatley - sio - 384/864mhz

screen on profile = lazy - sio - 1512/384mhz

plus I use battery defender.
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
How come everyone has their lowest cpu freq at 384 not 192?
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
It's just a preference thing. With me personally my phone runs fine at 192 but sometimes I'm in the mood to set it at 384 because the way I set my governor it spends a lot of time idled down and the Rosie responsiveness on my phone is at 384.

Some people may have had a stubborn hard to wake up screen at 192 undervolted, at some point and time and that became their preference. I tend to go back and fourth with mine. Others may have usage where they spend more time at that frequency step than in deep sleep so they might see battery savings with 192.
[HTC Rezound] darienms1986:
Makes sense just was curious. Thanks for the explanation
[HTC Rezound] :
I notice that ondemand seems to use the lower frequencies when idling or swiping with a finger whereas wheatley and lazy scaling from min to 1.1 or max constantly. Those two governors seem to be scaling ever 3-5 seconds of idling while ondemand stays at min, is this normal?

Also, since they spend most of their time in the higher frequencies, wouldnt ondemand net longer screen-on life?
[HTC Rezound] halcut:
How did you get this kernel working with Adrenaline 2.0? Every time I have tried it my Wifi just does not start. I get Wifi "turning on" status but it never turns on. I have tired both OTA and Global leak versions. I am s-on but always fastboot flash boot.img from the rom after flashing kernel from recovery.
[HTC Rezound] replica9000:
Use the Sense 3.6 OTA kernel. Adrenaline 2.0 isn't a Global build. Also, you need to copy over the matching wifi module: /system/lib/modules/bcmdhd.ko
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Flash in recovery then fast boot flash the Sense 3.6 OTA kernel.
[HTC Rezound] halcut:
Thanks let me try that.. so I just unzip and copy the wifi module to /system/lib/modules.
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
Snuzzo... Taking on roms like a boss
[HTC Rezound] replica9000:
Since your using fastboot to flash the kernel, you could use adb to push the module. Or you could do what Snuzzo suggested. Which ever is easier for you.
[HTC Rezound] halcut:
How to fast boot flash a Kernel? Is it just taking the boot.img from kernel and fast boot flash it?
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
Yeap, flashing in recovery puts the other files in place and then fastboot the boot.img by placing it in the same folder on your computer as fastboot.exe and run the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
[HTC Rezound] halcut:
perfect.. thanks a lot.
[HTC Rezound] replica9000:
Even though I'm S-Off I just find it faster to plug the phone in and issue these commands

[B]platform-tools#[/B] ./adb reboot bootloader
[B]platform-tools#[/B] ./fastboot flash boot ./S_Off_v1.3/boot.img

May seem more complicated to some, but I'm used to working with a Linux command line.
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
Those commands will work on a Mac or linux but not windows, correct? Or will they work on windows too?

I only learned them when I was remotely updating firmware and setting up the phones for people before s off was an option, for when I would log in to teamviewer and see the OSX screen, which is the last thing a guy wants to see when he agrees to do just one more job before crashing at 1 AM, only because you figured you could do it quick on windows lol.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
They work if you have the flash able extracted and adb setup with a path.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
What were you looking at to do? Already incoporating semi-battery.
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:

Two part question:

Will the upcoming version have the audio fix in it from the dev thread?

and will that help with the, umm, subpar stereo sound that the current crop of AOSP ROMS have?
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Yes to both and OP updated. Global v1.1 will be live in a bit.
[HTC Rezound] anubis2k3:
Hey Snuzz, have you checked out that super charge kernel that ic3man put out? If so, will you think about incorporating that in this? I would love to see how it works on Sense roms, preferably sense 3.6 roms. Mainly because I want to test it with my MHL adapter and because it sounds like a nice tweak to have in any rom, like fast charge.

Sent from a galaxy far..far..away....
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
I would rather not. I am not one that really likes to push things can potentially damage hardware. Another reason why I haven't added an overclock to this.
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
What is the "CIFS" for? I clicked the link hoping to find something with to give me an idea, but wasn't able to find anything.

How do you know if the kernel installed properly? Looks to be the same description as v1 in "about phone".
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
New version should default to SIO. :) I'll figure something out to give you version #
[HTC Rezound] Superm@π:
Don't worry about it, I just needed a way to check. Thanks Snuzzo, great work!
[HTC Rezound] Neo:

[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
That's correct. I'm trying something new :)
[HTC Rezound] howellcp:
Cool. Working good.
[HTC Rezound] shadowmonk36:
looking forward to your changes to the govs.

Don't know if this kernel or ROM related, but is it possible to make the states file available so programs like CPU Spy will be able to record the CPU freq?

Thanks again.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Had a fairly decent comparison yesterday and today between this and dsb9938's last iteration. Yesterday, with marginal use and limited LTE access (spent several hours in the Ossining, NY area) got just under 10 hours on dsb9938's kernel before I got the 15% warning. Governor was SavagedZen; i/o controller was BFQ (I think I have those letters right). Was also undervolted ~50 across the board.

Today, using extensive wifi for most of the day (have no cellular inside my house) and bluetooth for a bit, significantly more heavy usage tracking my fantasy football team's dismal season, got close to 8 hours before the warning. Using Wheatley and CFQ.

Going to stick with this one for a bit and see how it does longer term.
[HTC Rezound] izzaeroth:
I love u <3
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:

[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Thank you Drew for the very kind and much appreciated contribution. Changelog will be small in the next version but should play very very nicely.
[HTC Rezound] agentofchaos:
Definitely the best kernel out there currently! Snuzzo, any chance of implementing some supercharge features? Maybe with limits set so we don't blow up our phones ? :D . Just a recommendation as I don't know how much would have to be done to do it :P
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Thank you sooo much for the contribution, Gerry. I appreciate that ALOT.

I'm s-on aokp nightly005 just flashed this kernel and now I don't have Wi-Fi.. I flashed the boot.img from the rom.. what did I do wrong
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
I think you'll need the 1.3old version to work with AOKP nightly005. The wifi libraries are different between those two versions.
[HTC Rezound] thebasuke:
I flashed the boot.img from the new one and wifi works
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Ok...nightly005 must be newer than I thought. :)
[HTC Rezound] agentofchaos:
Snuzzo, what frequencies are good for battery conserving? I know between adjacent frequencies there is sometimes no change in voltage but I'm just unaware of which
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
24 hour testing of v1.4 starts now. Not going to be much of a changelog but some things worth noting.

The furthest I would underclock, 1.25Ghz.

Also, Thank you Scott for the contribution.
[HTC Rezound] coldking:
I am having trouble getting the md5 to match on the sense 3.6 v1.3 of this kernel. Could you check it out please
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Yeah I may have forgot to update the download page when I rebuilt v1.3. What md5 are you calculating when checked? OTA or Global?
[HTC Rezound] replica9000:
OTA I get 1a6edf6d152c2c305ae6615cae9f8541
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
That is the correct one and I do apologize for the inconvenience.
[HTC Rezound] coldking:
That's the one I'm getting. Thanks
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
What is 1.25Ghz? 1080 max?
[HTC Rezound] bik2101:
1.25 ghz = 1250 mhz
[HTC Rezound] Kelton Rivas:
Why does he not suggest any lower than that? Will 1080 actually cause more drain on the battery?
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
You'd have to do some experimentation. If you set the max too low, it can actually keep the phone at max frequency for longer doing processes, which after a certain point, could actually cost battery in the long run.
[HTC Rezound] dajmanjt:
Quick question.... I am trying to use this kernel on Newtoroot XXX rom and am not having any luck.... is the sense 4 kernel not compatible with snuzzos kernel?
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
Newt's rom is not compatible with sense 4 kernels unless theyve been specially modified to work with his rom.

That doesn't mean you want see one for his rom.
[HTC Rezound] dajmanjt:
Well if anyone feels up to it i would love for that to happen lol. In my opinion this kernel is the best out. I had to get off of iamneo's aosp rom cause of data drops i was experiencing. I have none on the xxx rom. but the kernel is not as good. such a rough life let me tell ya lol
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:

[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
I don't mind the chitter chatter. Guys everything's looking in point for v1.4 release didn't do much but its still a decent one otherwise.
[HTC Rezound] Evilmonstertruck:
Is there really a plan for a Newt version of this kernel? That would make my day
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Publishing v1.4's links online at the moment. For those who are running Sense 3.6 OTA roms let me know if you have problems with 1.4. That's the only version I haven't tested. Also, not going to post md5's, guys really shouldn't have a problem, the server is rather reliable.

It's in testing right now.

LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT A NON GPU OC'D VERSION OF ANY OF THEM!
[HTC Rezound] webleeper:

Will or would you consider adding sweep2wake?
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
He's said no to that on several occasions. I'm grateful too...I loath that feature.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
The demand has been slim. If I get enough requests, I will consider it.
[HTC Rezound] Evilmonstertruck:
That is awesome!! thank you. For me the GPU isnt a big deal. I just want the battery to last at work :cyclops:
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
MD5 for the 1.4 Global for the OCD among us is 38371d854cf17ba0b5173096081676e3

I don't care for Swipe2Wake myself. I never activated it (after testing it) on dsb's kernels.

1.4 runs fine on Global 1.4 Sense 3.6. Not sure if that's what you wanted.....
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Hiya, H, my good friend. I can confirm that is correct. I know you were into using the Non GPU OC versions. Let me know if you want one.
[HTC Rezound] :
Hey snuzzo, I asked a few days ago but I guess it got lost because of so many posts. Is wheatley suppose to keep pinging the max freq every 3-4 seconds doing nothing?

Btw on countershrike (aosp)
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Even the littlest hint of cpu load will make it ramp. Thats why you use it as a stand-by time governor, as its sleep "policies" are really REALLY good. Must have an app there that wants to use the cpu.
[HTC Rezound] squidder:
I disagree but I could be wrong...if I set the Max to 1080 and start a process that needs 1080 to run 100% then it wouldn't be any different than having my Max at 1.5 and it still using 1080. In fact it could decide to use higher than 1080 which obviously would hurt battery. Again I could be wrong just my 2 cents.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
In theory you are correct.
[HTC Rezound] dplane:
Looking forward to giving that kernel for Newt's ROM a spin, hope it resolves some of the excessive sleep drain as well as improve screen on time like your awesome AOSP version does.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Shouldn't be much longer. While you guys are waiting, added a flashable zip to the OP that will place an init.d script into system to persist fsync disable between reboots.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
You know, Snuzzo, I don't think I can tell whether GPU is OC or not; so whatever gives me better battery life is what I like. I don't play a lot of games on the Rezound anyway. Mostly just phone/email/web/camera and a fair amount of streaming via BT.
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
what are the overclockings for this kernel? cpu/gpu?
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
I can definitely notice the GPU overclock when using the Google+ app. With the GPU OC, it is just perfectly smooth and scrolls REALLY fast. Without the GPU OC, it's fast but less smooth, occasionally its jerky or pauses for moments. I'm still getting great battery life even with the GPU OC.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
GPU OC only by 60Mhz on the top end, about 35mhz in the middle.

Sorry if I missed it but what does fsync do?
[HTC Rezound] pagodasrevenge:
Will the fsync script work on any initd enabled kernal?
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
fsync periodically forces the write buffers to flush and commit to storage. It makes it less likely to lose data during a crash, but comes at a slight performance cost.

I think the kernel has to support it. I know Snuzzo has an fsync related commit in his build tree.
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
Only on a kernel with Ezekeel's fsync control. Currently mine and DSB's are the only ones I know of that it would work on.

@cowman

Simply put; File Synchronization.

From Ezekeel:

Enable/disable single file/filesystem sync.

The kernel provides system calls for syncing single files & filesystems which flush the corresponding file I/O buffers to storage. Disabling filesystem sync reduces the number of IO operations which can lead to improved responsiveness and reduced battery drain. However, disabling it increases the risk of data loss on a crash/freeze and can potentially cause other side effects.
[HTC Rezound] cowman4000:
Thanks for the information!
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
@howellcp

You said Neo's X? That should be 3.6 OTA. Try downloading from the mirror link. Do you get bootloop or no boot at all?
