Regarding the "Faster" PVS table, it seems the only real difference between the "Fast" and the "Faster" tables (aside from the L2 parameter) are the voltages being lower on "Faster" table. Do you think it would be worth modifying the "Faster" table to have the same voltages as the "Fast" table and testing to see if that fixes the issue?

I was running 2.2.3 and tried to update to 2.3.2. I flashed the boot img in fastboot, flashed the modules in recovery, and then after reboot, when I tred to unlock the phone, I saw my status bar and a black screen, followed by a reboot. This repeated on every subsequent attempt.

I've since flashed 2.3.1, 2.2.3, and the StockKernel, and I'm getting the same thing every time. Since at least 2.2.3 worked before, I suspect I've somehow borked something.

I was too stupid to make a backup (like an idiot, I forgot this was a new phone and therefore I didn't have any backups from a month ago), so I'm kind of boned here. What's the quickest way back to a working phone?
[HTC Droid DNA] jamesbra:
The only thing that fixed out for me was restoring a boot partition from a backup. You may want to consider making a backupthen factory resetting, reunlocking,and restoring every thing but the boot sector. Then flashing the last kernel that worked

Have you tried wiping/formatting, sideload a rom then flash a kernel then sideload the modules. thats worked for me in this situation.
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
Okay, I am posting a test file. This is only for those who had issues on the latest versions. Basically those who use the FASTER freq table that I just added. There is nothing you can do to change which table you use, it's based on what your hardware can handle and differs by phone.

I posted last night a command line to run in recovery that tells you which you use.

Please make a backup in case this goes south!

Flash this and run it for a little while (if it doesn't crash right away) and let me know how it goes.

I have no idea what controls battery stats, but I know they are not the most accurate on this phone. Mine stays at 99% forever, then when I drill down to look at it in detail, it drops into the 60's.

That's not related, AFAIK, and not unusual.

You can wipe the stats in recovery and it sometimes helps.

I'm experiencing lag in scrolling. Most noticeably in the task switcher and chrome is where the stutters occur. I've switched now between Cubed 2.3.3 and the stock kernel with the system writing enabled (yes I've flashed the stock kernel and modules before going to a different one). With DSB's stock kernel I get no lag at all. I've fiddled with Cubed at the stock settings and also played with SetCPU to find a combo that matches what I experience using the stock kernel. Anyone else compare performance with stock? I love the S2W feature! :good:

[HTC Droid DNA] PhantomApollyon:
D-

I'm seeing an odd behavior, or just new to me, and I wanted to be sure this is normal. If I set a governor, say "ondemand" for sake of argument. After a while, cores 1-3 will naturally go offline on their own which I understand is normal and cpu0 always stays online and "ondemand". What is odd, or seems odd, is that even when the cores(1,2,3) wake up they sometimes revert to using the "msm-dcvs" governor and erratically switch back to "ondemand" and vice versa. Is that normal behavior?

EDIT: I'm using Android Tuner Pro(same developer as STP) to be able to see the governor's and frequencys per core if that matters.

Min 594, max 1.62. Lionheart and fiops. Pure batt sipping butter.

Sent from my DNA.
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
No, it's not normal, it's the crap application you are using. And I'm sorry if this is one of the times I seem harsh, but I have said repeatedly not to use Kernel Tuner. You CANNOT SET DIFFERENT SETTINGS FOR EACH CPU. The chip is not designed that way. Trying to do it will cause issues and probably make it run like crap.

I don't know what chip supports that, but ours does not. And even if it did, I would never do it. The cores talk to each other and hand off processes back and forth, they need to run together. Not like 4 chickens with their heads cut off.

Sorry for the rant. But I have said this before.

EDIT: You put in the name while I was typing. I haven't used that one. But if it lets you set different things for different cores, DON'T.

D

.
[HTC Droid DNA] idkwhothatis123:
I stick to what I know. Setcpu lol

Sent from my DNA.
[HTC Droid DNA] PhantomApollyon:
I'm not using kernel tuner for the record. I'm using Android Tuner, which is the same as System Tuner Pro(supports a uni-core architecture as well as multi-core) it's by the same developer as STP and has the same modules but combines all 3 of their big applications. It doesn't matter if I use setCPU, STP, ATP, etc, it also doesn't matter if I set governor's based on a uni-core method or multi-core individual settings, this same behavior is observed. I assume its the normal behavior for the type of chip architecture we have but I was just curious if you'd seen/noticed it. Not trying to piss you off bro, I just took note of it and was curious.
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
No, it's not the same. Or there wouldn't be 2 different apps. There is no option to set each core in System Tuner. The author is trying to consolidate his stuff, so he's putting everything in one app and charging way too much for it. And it seems, causing problems.

I have no idea what it's doing. I know that when a core comes online, it has it's defaults set in it's sysfs. Then the sysfs is written over by the stuff you have set from the sysfs on cpu0 which is persistent. Once a core goes off line, it's sysfs is erased. That's how it works. So trying to set each one individually is not technically possible unless the program is doing a great deal of work to keep putting the info in the sysfs every time the cores go off and on.

Since I have not run that app, and I won't (it's way overpriced and has bunches of crap in it I would never use), I cannot say what exactly is going on.

D

.
[HTC Droid DNA] PhantomApollyon:
Ok.

So I uninstalled it, I was currently beta testing for the author, for the sake of testing. I'm going to set it just via STP and monitor what the cores are actually doing.

EDIT: As to it being overpriced, I agree, but beta testing for free doesn't bother me.
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
Okie dokie. I mean, I can't blame the app, but I don't trust apps that allow it to be set that way on CPUs that don't work that way. And generally, don't trust people to not tinker with it. Because I know I would. And there are enough things going on already that I have to worry about. I think.

Anyway. Let me know what happens.

D

.
[HTC Droid DNA] PhantomApollyon:
Ok so after uninstalled AT, I rebooted, installed STP, set interactivex2, 1.836max, OOM settings very aggressive, set everything to reapply on boot, rebooted, fired up stability test for a few seconds and then shut it off(just to get some activity across the cores). I then just watched the cores scale down and go offline, at that point core0 was still interactivex2, but cores 1-3 were all reading "msm-dcvs". It could just be that none of the software that's out there can read it properly but that's what I'm seeing.

EDIT: I will also add that nothing is running poorly or feels laggy or anything... everything seems to be running great.
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
What are you "reading" it with?

D

.
[HTC Droid DNA] PhantomApollyon:
the only two applications that I currently know of that show all the cores are AT & and "kernel tuner" I personally just installed AT to see the cores via it's monitoring, of course didn't apply any settings or anything as to interfere, I just used the monitoring side of it quickly after the install.

EDIT: if there's a more appropriate way to see it or a specific log I'll be happy to run whatever for you.
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
Okay, some quick detail. So you can understand what I mean.

Open a file browser. Go to /sys/devices/system/cpu.

You will see the cpus, 0-4, in there.

Go into cpu0. You will see all the stuff in there.

Go into cpufreq and scroll down. You will find scaling_governor. Open it with a text viewer. It should tell you the governor set on that cpu.

Now, back up one folder and go into cpu1. I bet you (unless it happens to be online) there is no cpufreq folder.

This is because they are removed every time the cpu goes offline. Now, when it comes online, all the relevant settings are copied from cpu0. Governor, max speed, etc. And then erased again when it goes off.

Having shown you that, I can promise you that your app is not showing you correct information. I might be showing you the system default? But I do not know that for sure. It's the only thing I can think of.

Once again, this is why I argue so strongly against apps that try to do individual cpu things.

Hope I cleared that up a little for you. And maybe a few others if they read this.

D

.
[HTC Droid DNA] PhantomApollyon:
That's good to know, and your assumption was correct about the lack of the freq folder unless the cores were online. Thanks for that info, very good to know. Using that method of checking I can also confirm that, while running the stability test, all the cores do get set to the correct governor when they are brought online with both STP & ATP(uni-core mode).

Again, everything is running great and no lock ups or SOD so far :good: awesome work man.
[HTC Droid DNA] wisconsinated:
Have an update with the kernel, was running it earlier at 192/1836 sio/intellix2(don't have it in front of me). Ran fine for a couple hours. Went to go back into the stock web browser and it crashed with no message. Went back in and the same automatically. Tried again, and then the screen started to flash black so I turned it off. Turned it back on, and couldn't get past the last frame of the boot animation - Tried to flash stock kernel - didn't work, wouldn't go past the boot animation again. Did a factory reset, and it came back up fine. Could just been having it up to 1836 I suppose, but it was just odd how it presented itself.

also something I noticed when running some benchmarks. Theres a gpu shader benchmark in the playstore called monjori. On the stock kernel I get 61 fps. On the cube kernel I got 31 fps. Also there was little bit of choppiness to scrolling in no specific app.
[HTC Droid DNA] BFirebird101:
Benchmarks don't mean chit for the most part.

they don't by themselves, but when you have a base benchmark to base it off of, (in this case, me running it before cube kernel in stock) and theres such a drastic difference after I installed cube, it does mean something.

The time spent reading, copying, creating, and reading the settings from cpu1 looks a little excessive. Is there any way to have them all set at the same value to avoid this process, assuming it takes up noticeable clock time?

The way I worded sounds like an ordeal but after a factory reset you can use the same unlock token then just root and start over. The way with the backups and advanced restores is to save apps and mods.
