Version 2.1, four flavours:

ElementalX 1.5 GHz http://goo.gl/SEvAW

ElementalX 1.7 GHz http://goo.gl/Q09Do

ElementalX 2.0 GHz http://goo.gl/8k7Vk

ElementalX Ultimate 2.0 GHz and GPU overclock http://goo.gl/eTveR

Changes:

zRam improvements:

-now uses Google snappy compression for zram (faster)

-fudgeswap (makes zram work better)

Sweep2wake options:

0=disabled

1=sweep2wake

2=sweep2sleep only (no sweep2wake, better battery)

Fixed the cpu voltage interface so only voltage for available frequencies is shown

GPU overclock (Ultimate version only!)

ElementalX init script in /system/etc/init.d

-allows proper setting of zram, sweep2wake/sweep2sleep, and powersave_bias of intellidemand
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
2.1 is working great. Disabled zram and s2w,set powersavebias to 20. My phone is still screaming. Let's see what kind of battery life I get now :) . Good work flar, awesome kernel
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
I know you're not the original dev but is there a way to disable sweep to wake if you're in a call? The reason I ask is because if you're in a call the phone will randomly vibrate due to your cheek being pressed up against the capacitive buttons, enabling sweep to wake.

Sent from my HTC One XL
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
I'll look into that, it might be able to be fixed. I noticed the buttons also vibrate when the phone is asleep after opening the camera from the lockscreen without unlocking the phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dave-:
Just switched from beastmode 4.3. Running the 1.5Ghz version. I uninstalled Kernel Tuner (along with 4 98KTxxx init.d scripts, not sure what else there is).

All I've done is set intellidemand to 20. Otherwise all defaults and set 192Mhz with no frills as per the OP. See how it goes :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
Hope it works out for you. You don't need to use no frills unless you want to change the max freq. The lower frequency is set and will stay at 192 by default. No action should be required.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dave-:
It wasn't at 192 but I suspect that is because I hadn't removed KT and it had its own init.d tweaks running after yours. Since cleaning all that up, you're right. No frills is doing nothing. When I start playing with voltage, I'll just use Venom Tweaks.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
will i need to restart after changing the powersavebias for intellidemand? or does it apply once saved?

kernel is running great so far btw. my phone seems to barely sip any battery when not in use (compared to BM) .
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
If you don't want to restart, go into the terminal and run the script as root:

su

cd /etc/init.d

./99elementalx

if you happen to get a permission denied error, go into the terminal and type the following commands:

su

chmod 775 /etc/init.d/99elementalx

It seems that if I edit 99elementalx with ES file explorer, it removes the execute permissions. The script can't run if the permissions change!

Everyone: make sure that this file is executable!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
For me the script showed it had exec. Permissions but when I checked them execute was unchecked. Set it and they stuck.

Flar, check your pm when you get a moment :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] scottie720:
I take it these aren't 1.14 hboot friendly :( just tried to flash said successful and still on beastmode
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
You can extract the boot.img from the zip file and flash with fastboot. read the OP for details.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] scottie720:
So I got 2.0 to flash through venom is it worth updating to 2.1? Didn't seem like to much in changelog
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
Below are the changes in more detail. If you plan to use zram, definitely upgrade.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Just thought I'd let you know I flashed the latest 1.7 GHz kernel and the second CPU does seem to scale (just very quickly). Im monitoring it with perfmon.

Is the only benefit to using an overclocking app like no frills that it can help the frequencies stick if you're having trouble? Or do we even need to use an app like that at all?

Sent from my HTC One X
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
No overclocking apps are necessary.

The second cpu scales up no problem. I made the different kernels (1.5, 1.7 and 2) so people wouldn't need overclocking apps. For example, if you have the 1.7 kernel, both CPUs scale from 192 to 1728 with intellidemand by default and everything sticks.

I should rewrite the info in the OP to be more clear.

I only suggested No Frills for those who want to use an overclocking app, it seems to work best. If you use Kernel Tuner, for example, the min freq will change to 384 instead of 192. If you want to limit the upper frequency to something less than the kernel's max (eg: limit to 1.8 on the 2GHz kernel), the second cpu will still scale up to 2GHz. That's the problem with overclocking on this device, but it's not really an issue because the problem is solved by having kernels with different max speeds (1.5, 1.7 and 2).
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Ah, thanks, that's what I was wondering.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Red5:
Hmm, this kernel looks interesting. I think Ill try it...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
Anyone having issues with there capacitive buttons randomly stop working after an unlock? I have to lock/unlock the phone to fix. S2w is disabled. I did try another kernel to see if it was my phone, but i only have the issue on ElementalX.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Red5:
Yeah I just noticed this too.

Also, if Zram is so cool, why is it disabled by default?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
I haven't had that happen, can you describe how it happens so I can try to recreate it on my phone?

And also, which version of the kernel are you using?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
zram is disabled because not everyone will want or need it. I'm not sure yet if it has an effect on battery, but it does take 100MB of your RAM and uses it as compressed swap space. For many people, it's better just to use the existing RAM with no swap. I'm experimenting with it because I do a lot of multitasking and always have several tabs open on my browser. Trying to stop pages from refreshing and apps from being killed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
Glad I'm not the only one. Thought it was my phone!

Well, it'd happen randomly. I unlock the screen, open an app and when I try to hit home nothing happens, but i can still work in the app. Home, back, recent button all stop working until I lock the phone and unlock again. Happens randomly, I'd say once a day and use my phone quite a bit. Running 2.1 1.5ghz version.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
Anyone else with this?

I literally lock/unlock my phone with s2w a hundred times a day and haven't had this happen. Testing with Cleanrom 5.1 and ViperXL 2.2.0.

All I can do for now is review the s2w code. It should behave the same as BeastMode's s2w.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
Scroll up a bit. Red5 says he experienced the same issue. (at least I'm not crazy, lol)

Sure it has to do with s2w?I have it disabled (set as 0) and unchecked in venom tweaks.

Also, I did try clearing caches for the heck of it to see if it fixed. No joy.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
s2w is the only thing I can think of that would affect the capacitive buttons. Nothing else related to them is modified from the stock kernel.

I saw Red5's post, I think he just downloaded the kernel an hour or two ago. I've been using it for several weeks and this has never happened.

How often is this happening to you?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
I'd say once maybe twice a day. I don't have any other apps open in the background either, or really doing anything special other than unlocking and opening an app / making a phone call. Only thing I messed with after installing the kernel was disable s2w, delete zram script made from viper rom, and changed powersave bias to 20
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
If it only happens randomly once or twice a day, in order to know if it's related to the elemental kernel, you would have to use a different kernel for a couple days to see if it still happens or not.

Since it has never happened to me and I can't recreate the problem, there's not much I can do about it at the moment. This kernel has over 1000 downloads and this is first time anyone has reported this problem.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Red5:
I did just d/l this kernel today, and my capacative button lights stopped twice on me since then, but 2 times out of about 100 isnt bad. Dosent really bother me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
Just the lights? Did the buttons still work?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
On beastmode my capacitive lights went out.

And...

No joke, the lights just went out as I typed this. Talk about coincidences.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
You know, I do remember my lights going out randomly a few days ago. Didn't really think anything of it. I'm not sure if it's happened since tbh, don't really pay attention to the buttons.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Hmm. A restart still didn't remedy it. Lights are still out. Yikes.

Sent from my HTC One X
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Red5:
My lights are back on and I haven't restarted. They just went out a few times but a lock and unlock brought them back. The buttons have always worked.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
As long as the buttons work it's not so bad. The capacitive lights can go on and off and change brightness based on the ambient light. If you hold your hand over the sensor at the top of the screen, the lights should get brighter. All the same, if some people are noticing strange behaviour, I'm going to revert the "dimmed capacitive lights" tweak in the next build.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 954wrecker:
The dimmed buttons set at 1 go on and off perfectly for me on elementalx 2.1 running viperxl 2.2.0 I got tired of setting the dimming myself after each reboot and installed the mod by Turge to dim them for me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dave-:
Viper 2.2.0 & current 1.5GHz kernel (defaults with powerbias=20), no issues with S2W or S2S, capacitive buttons or lights. :good:

Tried this scenario like 20 times, no problems here.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
What does HTC use for the stock governor? I assume it is something proprietary, but what is it closest too, intellidemand?

I just want to say, I am thankful for this kernel. :victory:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
would the second core always staying idle be a rom issue or kernel issue? if i boot up the phone the second core is always staying idle when using the phone (videos, games etc). it does not ramp up at all no matter what im doing on the phone until i go into venom tweaks and change the min. cores from 1 to 2, then back to 1 again. running elemental x 2.1 (if its a kernel issue, just not sure)

posted this in the viperxl thread, figured id post it here as well. very strange! if anyone can shed some light on this, id appreciate it :good:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
The second core only fires up when the first one is maxed out. Without touching anything, the CPUs will work as designed. I've tested it extensively on ViperXL 2.2 and Cleanrom 5 and 5.1. I highly recommend NOT using kernel tuner or any other software (including the dual core setting in Venom Tweaks) to change settings to do with the cores.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
Yea that's what I meant, it's not even ramping up when the cpu0 is maxed out. It's like the second core just shut off completely. I do mess with the core setting in venom tweaks though. That just determines if you want cpu1 on at all times or not.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
I had that happen with kernel tuner, I touched the CPU1 on/off button and it shut the second core off, then when I hit it again to turn CPU1 back on, it only stayed on while I had kernel tuner open. Just don't mess with CPU1 on/off settings and it will work fine.

The chip was designed so the second core would be asleep most of the time to save battery. I monitor CPU usage with MicroCPU Monitor. It shows a tiny cpu usage graph in the top right corner and has a setting to show both cores. The second core actually does kick in quite a bit, but usually only for a few seconds at a time so you won't notice it if you're looking at kernel tuner. You have to be actively using the phone to see it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Genetic517:
yea i had the cpu freq. showing from venom tweaks so i was watching it, no matter how many apps or games/videos i was watching, the core NEVER kicked in until i went into venom tweaks and changed the min core setting from 1 to 2 then back to 1. i dont use kernel tuner as the min frequency never stuck for me. i only noticed the second core wasnt coming online when i was getting some strange lag when on the phone, then i noticed cpu1 wasnt doing anything.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] neocryte:
Just wanted to say, this kernel is fantastic. I love the USB on-the-go feature - basically creates unlimited storage on the phone, since you can hook up USB drives and watch movies/whatever off them. And it's pretty cool to be able to hook up a keyboard to it, for when you need to write long e-mails/articles/whatever on the road. Swipe2wake is awesome too, works very well.

Also, most importantly, this kernel fixes the LTE battery issue (basically, if you are on LTE and lose signal for a while, when the phone gets it back, it goes into a weird mode where it heats up and drains battery quickly - this has been around forever). This issue was very annoying if you ever take subways during the day.

Thanks very much for the hard work on this!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
I don't think the kernel solved the lte issue. I experienced it earlier in the week but I'm still testing to see if it was radio related.

I also noticed a random restart last night which I think might be due to the s2w being enabled (I use stock speeds). I will test later with it disabled.

So on-demand is the stock governor? If I use that my first core never ramps down even when idling. Well, it does, but only for 1 second and then goes back to full speed. That's unfortunate.

Sent from my HTC One X
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] flar2:
Thanks neocryte!

But, yeah, this kernel shouldn't make any difference with LTE.

@ECEXCURSION: Whenever there's something to do, ondemand ramps up to the highest frequency (I haven't modified it in any way).
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] neocryte:
Hmm, well my LTE battery drain issue def seems to be gone since installing the kernel, whereas I had it before. From my understanding, it was fixed in 2.33 codebase in the stock ROM but I was still experiencing it with Nocturnal Limited Edition. Don't have the issue anymore, after installing this kernel.

But I will keep testing, maybe I have just been getting lucky. :)

Hi there.

I got help from DoubleTwist (the app i use for podcasts) support solving a problem I had with not being able to download podcasts from certain channels/producers and I hope this post might help those who find themself struggeling with the same problem.

Podcast episodes from certain channels simply failed to download, but podcasts from other channels downloaded just fine.

The solution was quite simple, but not obvious (at least not for me beeing a noob).

After sending some logs and some communication back and forth with DoubleTwist, they kindly did a search through their archives and they sent me this:

<"The problem is the user has adblock enabled on the phone. The podcast in question uses redirections through a tracking service which is blocked by adblock. Normally, the tracking service would redirect back to the actual podcast media file, but since it's blocked, it simply returns nothing."

"int.sitestat.com is an analytics service I've seen some podcasts use. It works by having the podcast server temporarily redirect to sitestat, which records the visit, and then redirects back to the original podcast site.>

Since I'm running Omega ROM, which has ad-block enabled by default, I simply had to download the app "adfree android" from market, run app, choose "revert hosts", reboot and voilá: problem solved.

All credit to DoubleTwist and their awesome support-team. I never would've figured this out on my own, and couldnt find any similar solution elsewhere.

If you know of any other solutions, please post below.

Have a nice day! :D
[Galaxy S III General] mrtnthrsn:

I own the 8gb model and have about 500mb of sapce remaining.

When i go to download a new app, 12mb in size it says i do not have enough space on the device.

I've heard of the issue on the 16gb version, has anybody had this on the 8gb version ?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilks3y:
Why does your title say NOT 8GB model?

Also, maybe the Nexus saves a bit of space so you don't completely fill your device.

Its like you holding a handful of stuff, you can maybe hold a little bit more, but once you do you will REALLY struggle and perhaps drop them.

Concept is the same?

Could hold it, but would start to struggle, and the dropping could be faults or crashes

Hope that makes sense :D

Hello to All.

Please try my new program. It not anything compicated it just turns off your SGS2 screen.

**** ROOT REQUIRED **** TESTED ON SAMSUNG GALAXY S2 ***

This application just simulates the button ON/OFF of Samsung galaxy S2.

I have tested with 4.0.4 and 4.1.2 and everything works fine.

When you press the icon the Phone shutdown.

You can also use gestures with Go Launcher and.For example when you slide on the menu button then the screen turns off.

I made this because all the other programs I used, after upgrading to 4.0.4, did not work well. Some of them turn on screen again and some others make a flash before turning off.

I am waiting for your feedback. It will help if you also post your ROM version.
