About Battery Life

Dear Developers:

After testing the kernel using Epinter's CM10.1 I would like to report the following findings, related to 2 main open issues:

- I have tested the phone with 16GB Kingmax Class-6 SD Card and it reboots when entering Deep-sleep (I have already reported this). The strange thing is that I tested again with 8GB Sandisk Class-2 and reboot doesn't happen. I also have read another post of reboots using Class-6 cards, so maybe the reboot is related to SD Card Class.

- Regarding battery life I realized that, when phone is charging, it never enters Deep-Sleep (I don't know whether this is normal behavior or not). And additionally, when phone is not plugged it leaves Deep-Sleep state pretty often (I have hybernated many applications usizng Greenify) and the CPU State stats show that, even when screen is off 80% of the time, phone stays at 216MHz for more than 50% of the time. Here maybe there are some Google Sync parameters to play with.

Below are my Atrix specs:

Memory Type / Brand: Elpida 40nm 1GB

Panel Type: 0x80000740

Simcard (Normal/Micro): Normal

ATag Revision: 0x83f0

Tegrapart: mbr:d00:100:800

Radio: N_01.77.37P

Is there anything new ....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tpr0:
We should be proud of our patience ;)

This project has no ETAs, if you can't handle the waiting time, go buy another phone... which I might be doing after a while :p (the wolfson audio performance of this device is resisting me, better than S3 wolfson)

Anything new will be posted in this thread promptly. There is no need to ask.

I don't want to spam kernel thread. Some of my posts are pretty much lab tests that won't show up in kernel (yet or at all). I also don't want to make it unnecessary big with comments not related directly to code. FAQ is for current working version. Thats why i post on G+.

Jitter & Shake....

Has anyone posted anything about how to resolve the issues with the heat related screen jitter / shake that has been seen on some AT&T devices? I have thumbed back through the forums where the issue was originally posted (back around the 22nd), and I didn't find anything. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

:confused:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jcrahul:
nice :D

Sweet OP updated Front Camera/Front Video Camera [complete]

BTW what is "Flash work in progress"???
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atrix4g18:
The flash is currently not going off (flashing) when a picture is taken.

They are currently working on getting it to function correctly.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hobbypunk90:
what do you meen with "not going off" ? 0o

when you take a picture woth flash, after it, the flash is still on? 0o

at my atrix, it don't flash, only the picture on screen gehts a little bit lighter for a second^^

an other thing, which i recognizes, when i tage a foto series was it ever as slow as it is?

is there anything to speed up the foto per second?

greets,

Marcel
[Atrix 4G Android Development] trashbytes:
He means the flash doesn't flash. It does nothing.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Maringer:
The point is that, although we know the LED on the phone works, it is not synchronised to flash correctly with the camera. Should be something they can resolve without too many problems, though it may take some time!

I'd imagine that the number of photos which can be taken quickly will depend on the limitations of the hardware to some extent so I'd be surprised if this could be improved much.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atrix4g18:
From what I've read it turns on when it auto focuses but then doesn't turn on for the picture.

So it's not mistimed, it's just not turning on for the picture. I could be wrong though.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] diegons49:
I love this project.

I love my Atrix.

Thanks for all devs!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Nadzlee:
Actually the flash does work. But it's not working properly as the flash timing is incorrect. It does not sync equally when the camera snap a pic. The flash seems to appear faster than the camera shot. Hope this clear things up

Sent from my MB860
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ravilov:
Yet another one... :rolleyes:

Seriously, can people not read? Or are they just too thick to understand what's written?

There is

NO SYNCING PROBLEM WITH THE FLASH

. Get that out of your heads. If you want to know what's REALLY going on with the flash, just read Krystian's posts. (Should've done that already.)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
Atrix4g18 and ravilov are correct. There is no missed sync. Flash works as a focus helper (common thing in cameras), but doesn't work on shot itself. I'm a photographer and i can disctinct those two (cameras just have separate led to do that). I've managed to get flash on shot but this fix has to be polished, to be sure it doesn't break other stuff.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] saiftheboss7:
I've been experiencing the wrong time of flash since Motorola's official Firmware. Tried MROM & this is here too. I thought Atrix has this problem by default. That's why I use Camera Zoom FX's torch option as flash. Atrix's Camera sucks big time :|
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mrtausif2004:
is battery drain issue has been resolved?

[Atrix 4G Android Development] quetzalcoatl2435:
Moto's ICS leak has a very weak flash & is mistimed for photo taking. This new kernel isn't mistimed, it just doesn't fire. Flash is still weak, but I think that just needs some tweaking, because the high-power mode in the torch app does work and is very bright.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] saiftheboss7:
I was talking about Moto's official Gingerbread Rom :P
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
During focusing flash is weaker indeed (intentionaly) but my tests show that while you take a shot it flashes with much higher power, so it will be fine in release.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
It should be possible, we already switched to bcmdhd driver for cm10.1 with epinter. I haven't done it for cm9 yet. Though I haven't tested if wifi direct works, so can't say much about it. I can only say that if other phones with bcm4329 support it, it shouldn't be a problem for us.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] palmbeach05:
Flash flashes early, doesn't flash at the time of picture being taken
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atrix4g18:
It flashes during focus and then doesn't flash when the picture is taken.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] danilocps87:
Snap Camera has a "always on" flash option, that can solve this problem too.

I think that the flash isn't the major problem now, but the poor quality of photos taken, this is a really big problem.

Fast File Transfer is a good alternative to wifi direct.

I can transfer a 1GB file from a phone to other in just 3 or 4 minutes using this app.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] magush:
Camera quality

Hm, try to set in the camera app the jpeg quality to "super".

Krystianp! Glad to see you replying to our noobish questions! Welcome back grand Master! :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Fastrite:
ES file explorer has a "Send to LAN" option
[Atrix 4G Android Development] SpUnKmYeR:
Careful using this. Borked my entire camera/flash on a previous atrix
[Atrix 4G Android Development] danilocps87:
I tried this, but doesn't help.

Even using 5mp, the picture taken seem like a 1.3mp picture...

The pictures are a little blurry... The quality is much lower compared to CM7 camera.

Guys, please, I'm not criticizing this work. I'm just reporting it, ok?

I'm already using epinter's CM10.1 as my daily Rom. This kernel is a amazing work!

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Nadzlee:
Maybe that happens to be just on my phone then. I've read his post dude and that's not the case on my phone. Come on dude don't be harsh. I'm not a newb. Maybe this account is still a virgin but I'm a quite a vet here.

Anyways, krystian.. Since your recent post is about the working leds flash, could the new release somehow makes my flash work proper again?

Flashed this kernel and it acts like this

Focus w/ led flash lights up ---> Flash comes first (it FLASH) ----> Pic then, snapped

It's really a mistiming
[Atrix 4G Android Development] danilocps87:
Just to report.

The epinter's build is using ondemand governor and noop I/O scheduler by default.

Using CPU-Z, I notice that CPU load was always 90 to 100%, and battery temperature was 33°. At my Galaxy Tab 2, using stock 4.1.1, the CPU load is only 5 to 10%, and battery is 27°.

The Tab is using the default Interactive governor and cfq scheduler.

I apply these settings to Atrix (Interactive + cfq). But the CPU load was at 30 to 40% yet... Then, I just disable the auto brightness sensor (it was disabled at Tab too), and now the CPU load is only 7 to 15%, and temperature is 29°.

I'm not sure, but I think this may help to reduce the battery drain.

Devs, what do you think about this?

Enviado do meu MB860
[Atrix 4G Android Development] quetzalcoatl2435:
I'm getting interactive/noop by default on CM10.1. Not ondemand, but I'll try cfq later.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Franklee99:
Was this directly after install? If so, high CPU likely media scanning etc.. I Never considered auto brightness however. Thank you for sharing.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] danilocps87:
I was using a backup (titanium backup) of rom manager app. Maybe it overwrote the default from Interactive to Ondemand (I was using it in CM7 while diding the backup)...

But, I tried change just governor, and continued the high CPU load. Only when I changed scheduler and disabled auto brightness, the CPU load went down.

No. I'm using this build for 2 weeks. I tried after 8 hours of use, and get the high CPU load. And even after a reboot, the high CPU load was there.

And as I said, the auto brightness represents about 25% of the high load.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jcrahul:
thanks for the tip.. btw does your core1 stop??? because i noticed that core 0 and core 1 on my phone were running even with 20% load.. where as on my friends note 2 i say just core 0 running rest all stopped.... even with 45% load :eek:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] danilocps87:
The 2 cores are working. Even when using just 7% of CPU, the cores are running at 1000Mhz. Sometimes, one of the cores go down to 608Mhz.

AFAIK cores here cannot run at different clocks. There is a side effect of having multiple files with current clock info.

You can try CPUTableau apk to watch the temp, the clock and active cores permanently.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
It will be open when we have stable kernel and we'll be only tweaking it. For now our changes brings sometimes very upredictable results. I almost bricked my atrix during recent development. What saved me was my console access through uart (so i knew where to look for solution).
[Atrix 4G Android Development] krystianp:
Any form of support is appreciated:) and we are now doing some tests with our testers to pick the best group of changes that will work on most of atrixes. When we finish it new builds should be released to the public.

Bluetooth headset

I've been using epinters CM10 for months (currently 2013-04-21 build) as a daily driver.

Yesterday I’ve done factory reset, full wipe and installed CM 10.1 (latest version available cm-10.1-20130517) with new kernel 3.1.10. Everything is fine except Bluetooth. I can’t make a phone call with my bluetooth headset Jabra Supreme 2.5

I can hear system sounds (dial pad tones for example) in headset, but I can’t hear anything in my headset during the phone call (mic isn’t working too).

Some idea?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] palmbeach05:
Bt is a common problem with the new kernel on both 9 and 10.1. i believe the devs are aware of the issue and are working on it, although i can't confirm that.

I'm focusing mostly on battery usage. To be precise now on cpu hotplug. It's not implemented in this kernel and implementation I found is working only in suspend mode. I'm trying to fix it so it works like in old kernel.

Hello,

I am having an issue that I believe is kernel related.

I have tried 3 roms today, (CM9, CM10.1, Slim 10.1) which all use the 3.1 kernel.

Whenever I install one of these roms, it finished completely, and I reboot the phone.

When it starts up, i see the stock Motorola Dual Core/Unlocked logo, however after that, the screen just goes black, and never lights up again.

The soft buttons work, as i can feel the haptic feedback when I press them and they light up, however the screen does not turn back on.

Has anyone else experienced this? I posted over in the slim rom thread, but the same thing happens on 3 roms that all use this kernel.

Any advice would be appreicated.

Regards,

edit: so after about 25 mins or so, Now when I press the power button, the lock screen appears for about 3 seconds, and then starts jittering left and right until it shuts off the screen.

is there a standalone kernel I can flash or something?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] douglasroos:
As far as i know, is related to the kernel due to the different refresh rates of the Atrix screens, maybe you should try the kernel with the refresh rate [MENTION=3242076]50Hz[/MENTION] if i'm not wrong. Maybe other mate here can provide you with a link to it.

Regards.

I have a small question:

I'm trying to compile CM10.1/AOKP/PAC from source; but I get the kernel to work without WiFi nor Signal.(current source tree)

As far as I see, this is a common error ... Can someone lend a hand?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Zn7mkUKzN1r8aCIV:
Epinter has updated device/ tree to use latest BCMDHD wifi drivers, but the Kernel is outdated and is using old BCM4329 drivers

So you either MENUCONFIG your kernel and build it, or wait & wait & wait for the sourcecode updates...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jhonnyx:
Zn7mkUKzN1r8aCIV; Good hint!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lehjr:
Not everyone uses bluetooth, but nearly everyone depends on the battery life on some level given that it is a portable device.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jhonnyx:
Maybe I can try changing the defconfig or mk files to use the old BCM4329

& no one is celebrating?

Front camera is working, BUT Torch / Flash on camera is completely dead

anyway thx for the great work :)

p.s. there is a typo in the source preventing it from compiling

arch/arm/mach-tegra/board-olympus-panel.c line 336:

to

//.lp_read_cmd_mode_freq_khz = 200000,

That being said, will a flashable zip for CM9 and CM10.1 be released with just the kernel and modules?

That way users can just flash an under 5mb zip rather than download the whole ROM.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kingbobski:
Personally i perfer a full ROM flash because the devs tend to resync the ROM :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atrix4g18:
Very true.

However, I'm in an area that has no internet, only data and mine is quite limited so I won't be able to download a whole ROM. I don't mind waiting abother week and a half, but it would be nice to get even just the latest boot.img or zImage. That way I can get the latest kernel changes.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mmontuori:
The basic answer is yes, however, they will not necessarily coincide with source updates. Releases will be tagged in the source tree and zip files released at that stage.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Zn7mkUKzN1r8aCIV:
This kernel update probably needs full ROM update to work, as Front Camera is working, trying to play with Facelock, it ends up I have to dig up the non-neon facelock libs from LG optimus 2x to work... The leaked Moto's Facelock app & libs are outdated and cannot run in 4.2.2...

Of course I have my rom running with Facelock with Blink protection :)

By any chance could you send me or post the boot.img?

This gapps wotks with 4.2.2 :)

As for the kernel, there are a lot of 'experimental' patches included in this source update that result in:

Lose of BT and Torch

DeepSleep to Death

so far, i managed to cherry pick some individual patches from Github and built a kernel with Front camera, BT and Torch working, no sleep of death. I really doubt you want to play with it...

On the other hand, the development team is working very hard on the kernel, epesially on I/O speed and irq stuff (lighting fast and responsive while battery saving), hopefuly when things all sorted out, it will be very very GREAT! Thx. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atrix4g18:
Well I got my hands on the latest kernel.

I have only had the sleep of death once.

I'm using my other phone as a phone and my Atrix just to test ROMs for now so I wouldn't mind playing with it.

If you could send me your kernel with those fixes that would be great. Don't have BT atm because I'm using a kernel that was built today. I have front camera but it's upside down. That might be ROM related though.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lehjr:
As I recall, the upside down issue is in /system/etc/nvcamera.conf and can be fixed by changing the front camera line (soc380) from

camera1=/dev/soc380,front,270 (or whatever is here),mono

to

camera1=/dev/soc380,front,90,mono
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atrix4g18:
Thanks for the tip.

I tried it and nothing changed. It seems very logical, I'm surprised it didn't work.

Luckily it's not a big deal as I rarely use the front cam.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Zeljko1234:
It works, even without reboot. Path on live system is: /etc/nvcamera.conf. I changed with ES File Explorer.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] atrix4g18:
I'll try again and edit this post. That is where I was, and I did make the correct change.

Edit: I tried again with no success. Then I thought to try a different value. I used 180 and it changed from upside down to sideways. Clearly the file is being changed correctly, but it's simply not working at 90.

Edit 2: 0 also works as a value.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kingbobski:
I don't have an issue with changing the value, Worked without a reboot, I used Root Explorer and mounted /system as R/W then changed and saved.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] quetzalcoatl2435:
If you build the whole ROM with it, you'll find that WiFi is working (provided you use the correct vendor files). As I said before, a lot of dependencies have been changed, which breaks a few things if you use it on the public release ROM.
