What does dirty flash mean?? iv'e never heard that term.........

Just in case this helps you help me.......... i am completely locked out of the UI upon boot so any ADB commands won't work there. However, i can still boot into the boot loader, fastboot, and recovery from the bootloader.

Please help me sort this and i appreciate your quick response on this so far.

---------- Post added at 11:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 PM ----------

i found the unsecure stock kernel and the modules to go with it. I assume i have to rename the unsecure kernel to "boot.img"????

Now that i have them, how can i put the modules on the phone if i can't flash them in ADB while the phone is locked out of the UI???

If i can push the modules to the phone in recovery or fastboot, can you please tell me the commands to do so?

---------- Post added 18th December 2012 at 12:02 AM ---------- Previous post was 17th December 2012 at 11:41 PM ----------

Ok, i figured out how to simply push the modules to the /sdcard and then i used fastboot to flash the stock unsecured kernel and then recovery to flash the modules................but it didn't fix anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE HELP!!!!
[HTC Droid DNA] RLKirk:
Dirty flashing is flashing without wiping anything. Note some rims flash before installing... The insecure one will work fine. If you download the all in one toolkit from hasoon in the dev section and boot to bootloader ABD is easy from there and lots less work
[HTC Droid DNA] N1ghtr08d:
But i managed to manually push the modules onto the sdcard and then flashed the unsecure boot.img and then the modules and it didn't fix anything. It's still doing the exact same thing. This problem all started when i installed Kernel Tuner. If i hadn't installed that then i wouldn't have this issue.

What else can i do to fix this????
[HTC Droid DNA] RLKirk:
You can download AROMA file manager and delete your CPU tweaking app so it will stop talking to the kernel. That should fix it. Try deleting the Cache and Delvic Cache too

Also if you know how to delete apps with ADB you can delete kerneltuner that way to. Data/apps/ is where I think it is at although I'm no Dev haha
[HTC Droid DNA] N1ghtr08d:
Ok, i just downloaded Aroma and installed it. I located the kernel tuner apk and deleted it.........

Then i wiped the Cache and Dalvik Cache......................

NOTHING!!!!

Now i'm gonna try dirty flashing a rom to see if that helps. Failing that i'll do the traditional factory reset/wipe and then install the new rom. I hope i can fix this crap tonight!

---------- Post added at 12:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 AM ----------

Ok, so i ended up having to do a full traditional factory resets/wipe, system wipe, cahche and dalvik cache wipe all in TWRP and then install my new debloated rom. Finally i have a working phone again........................... about time!
[HTC Droid DNA] x70xchallengerx:
Similar thing happened to me twice on this phone lol. Once locked my Rom with encryption and I had to ruu and another I couldn't even ruu! But thank god flashing the Rom after many fails gave me success.. it can be very frustrating and scary when you think your phone is done for! And even more frustrating when it decides to be needy when you are awaiting an 'important' text when 'someone' is on their way over -___-
[HTC Droid DNA] RLKirk:
Hmm its wierd that the deleting of the system tuner app didn't fix the problem although the partition set up on this phone is completely different then my rezound. Usually if the app can't tell it to overclock it won't do it. I'm glad you got it working again and I'm sorry you have to reset your phone but that's the price we pay with rooted phones and playing around with them lol. If you can get a nandriod to complete in TWRP do so. Then next time you can at least try and Nandroid back to your backup...
[HTC Droid DNA] Crewski:
Just wanted to report my issues with reboots. With running this kernel (v1.4.9), I get roughly 1-2 reboots a day. It becomes an issue at night because after a reboot, the ringer/notifications are turned back on and I get woken up from emails. Only change I made was to run Savagedzen and Sio. I'm going to go back to stock kernel for now and try again after updates.

Besides the reboot issue, I absolutely love this kernel. Congrats to the dev and I look forward to coming back in the future. Thanks for your hard work.

I'm running this on UKB 1.1.0 if that matters.
[HTC Droid DNA] iOSh8er:
Something similar happened to me a few days ago.

after installing Set CPU my phone rebooted and was stuck at the splash screen.

tried to re-flash kernel, modules & ROM without wiping, testing between each flash.

I had to do a full wipe and install the ROM again to make the phone boot into the OS.

It's all part of hacking a new device!:D
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Is anyone else having trouble with HTC Sync using this? I've tried Sync and Sync Manager, both on OSX and Win8.
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
Set CPU and System Tuner seem to work fine on mine...but Kernel TUner...BAM! Instant lock up and continuous reboots..had to Nandroid to get back to normalcy. Intersting how different these three programs will behave on our phones.
[HTC Droid DNA] iOSh8er:
Set CPU is running fine on my phone now too. I'm not sure what caused the problem!
[HTC Droid DNA] swimminsurfer256:
My phone seems to have a strong chance of reboot mainly whenever I open the notification dropdown while the lockscreen is up.
[HTC Droid DNA] Irish65:
setcpu/kernel tuner/system tuner

I also had all of these problems. Then I remembered from some years ago on my motorola droid regarding oc'ing. Not to use multiple programs for it. I didn't want to let go of my setcpu because I paid for it, so kernel tuner was removed. As was the consistent rebooting. Thats when the epiphany struck. Then I realized that setcpu wasn't really doing it for me anymore and I saw that dsb had mentioned something about system tuner. I went and got the pro version and ditched the setcpu. System Tuner Pro alone with his kernel releases has not given me any conflicts at all. I also re-flashed the kernel and modules after install of a rom. This has also cleaned some mystery issues up. S2W has always been there after I've re-flashed the modules on a rom install.
[HTC Droid DNA] Danzoman:
Well its on sale for $1.99 I don't know how much it usually is. That's not bad.
[HTC Droid DNA] Irish65:
excellent program, it's well worth it. leaves setcpu and kernel tuner in the dust...(sorry guys, but it is what it is):cyclops:
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
This is ridiculous, I've had this f***** go into the Sleep of Death 3 times in 24 hours. Minimum CPU speed is like 480. Anyone else getting these issues?
[HTC Droid DNA] iOSh8er:
You can always go back to stock if this kernel is "ridiculous".

Keep in mind that this is still very early in development and there will be issues.

DSB could use your last_kmsg file from the /proc folder if you care to help him fix the issue.
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:

Is anything else having this happen or am I alone? Sound more like a kernel issue or ROM issue?
[HTC Droid DNA] luke1333:
i get that too man. going back to unsecured kernel for now
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Better luck with unsecured?
[HTC Droid DNA] iOSh8er:
It is the kernel.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I get it too, at least twice a day. The conditions are random when it does this so I can't pinpoint the cause. This happened using any of the three roms.

[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
LoL. Sorry. Just the frustration talking. Love the Sweep2Wake, which is why I wanna see this working :)

Other than this one issue, it's pretty epic. My log can be found here http://azconceptphoto.com/kernel/last_kmsg-dna if that helps.
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Do we have an idea of what's causing it ? I know I had WiFi Bluetooth and GPS on when my last occurred. Don't quite remember what was on the last few times. Anything I can do to help debug.
[HTC Droid DNA] RLKirk:
Its random. I have them with nothing but the normal stuff on so its hard to narrow down. Probably something to do with the way this phone handles its memory or something I'm sure one day it will be worked out
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
I have a high tolerance for pain and frustration after coming from a Thunderbolt..lol..so the one or two random freezes, and they really are random...no pattern or certain app that causes it, are not really a deal breaker for me as the phone does run great with this kernel and swipe to wake is AWESOME!!!

I'd be happy to grab whatever logs are of use and send/ post them..just need a little direction on how that's done (I'm pretty savvy under direction using ADB...lol...I was able to edit my build prop for photosphere and also pull and then push back an updated AdAway hosts file to make my ad blocking stick on reboot).
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Totally agree on swipe to wake. Pretty epic.

yessir. battery life was insane today too! and no freezes! really miss s2w though!
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
I ran unsecured part of the day. Totally missed s2w.. flashed back lol
[HTC Droid DNA] luke1333:
LOL i couldnt deal with the freeze ups but i never had any random reboots!
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Which kernel had better battery for you? Any specific governor?
[HTC Droid DNA] luke1333:
Unsecure and nope

[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Its not a DNA thing, its an android thing. The gpu is only used when a app asks for it, otherwise it will use the gpu.

Bit ticking that option uses the gpu everywhere, and can actually decrease game performance.
[HTC Droid DNA] myfishbear:
just want to report a small problem for me on your stable kernel. i have a deep voice and i have a problem with mic volumes when making a call and most people cant hear me that well. i would greatly appreciate if you increased mic volumes on your next release.
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
How do you go back to the stock kernel when I haven't sen the stock modules posted anywhere? Just the stock unsecure kernel is posted.

Someone posted what appeared to be them for me inj this thread but they were modules for the cubed kernel so I'm worried I'm going to still have random freeze ups if I flash back the sotck unsecured kernel.

Maybe they were the sotck modules afterall..but when I installed the zip in recovery it had the dsb cubed extract script thing appear...so I thought maybe they were the wrong modules.
[HTC Droid DNA] iOSh8er:
I was referring to the stock unsecured kernel as is is needed for root.

However I recommend DSB's 1.0.1 kernel as it runs great (can be found on the O.P.).

You will not have any issues with the 1.0.1 kernel. It runs great.
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
I'm confused.lol...if I flash the original unsecured kernel (I just did) in fastboot are there any modules that need to be installed via zip in recovery for said unsecured kernel?

As for the 1.0.1 I'd love to flash it! But only 1.25 and up is linked to download :(
[HTC Droid DNA] trickster2369:
I believe if you have already flashed one of dsb's kernels and modules, you should be ok as long as you are still on the same Rom.
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Since I redid everything. I've been running on 1.4.9 without the modules (so wifi doesn't work and s2w doesn't work). It still shows cubed in about phone...but guess what. No freezes or reboots. No SOD. DSB. what's in the modules zip? Something in that might be causing the issues. Not sure if this info helps though. Hopefully it does.

No sod or freezes on the initial builds?
[HTC Droid DNA] iOSh8er:
Only on 1.0.1, which he has removed. But it was missing s2w & overclock capabilities anyway...
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
Added a blurb about where things come from to the OP.

I also added a "Return to Stock" zip. This is necessary because the latest versions rename/replace some stock files.

I expect an update this afternoon some time.

[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I can't wait for the update, I thought you guys would take a few days off to finish Christmas shopping.
[HTC Droid DNA] trickster2369:
D, just a quick question I haven't seen posted yet:

Is it possible to use an update file such as the ph file we were able to use on the Rezound for installing kernels?
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
Not that I know of. But I haven't tried.

D

[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Which was the second most stable?
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
New version up. Think the reboots/locks are fixed.

Added some goodies. See the change log.

[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Smartassv2 at 1728. If I go higher it locks up while running quadrant. What I will do in a bit is bump it up to 1836 and do a stress test.
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Let us know if you have any reboots or lock ups.
[HTC Droid DNA] luke1333:
will do just flashed.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I'm stuck at 1728. When I tried 1836 the stress test kept going and going until Setcpu forceclosed and the phone got really warm. Every phone is different so some of you may have no problem going to 1836 or higher. The good news was that I did get into the 9500 range on quadrant but I'll probaly never break the 10k mark since my phone dislikes aything higher than 1728.
[HTC Droid DNA] luke1333:
Let me go try 1836+ lol

Not an iPhone.....
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
First, don't use SetCPU, you are missing out on half the options. Get System Tuner.

Second, yes, each phone is different, I run 1.83 very easily, I don't know anybody who can rock 1.89 yet.

Third, anybody have any regular use feedback yet? No locks/reboots?

Positive feedback is much more welcome than negative, but people don't complain when things work right.:p

Just tried to run 1.83 via system tuner and phone just died. Had like 75% battery and volume down and power does nothing. Not good!

[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
LOL, you know, I've watched you post all sorts of "interesting" things over the last few weeks. If the kernel borked your phone, you got some special phone there.

Maybe you should just not run my kernel? Then you can stop complaining.

I'm sure you'll be back to tell us how you fixed it later, now that you've blamed me for destroying your phone. Thanks!

[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
For the first three hours I ran at 1620 and had absolutely no lockups or freezes. I bumped it up to 1728 and had no problems either.

As far as systemtuner, I will give it a shot in a couple days. I think the stress test offered by Setcpu exposes my phone's limitations. I'm sure with systemtuner I could fine tune the settings to squeeze a little more out of it.
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
There's an app in the market called Stability Test. But make sure you remove the case for these types of things, they make the phone hot.

D

.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I have no case, though I probably should get one. I'm happy at 1728, ya it could be faster but I'm not racing anyone.

Just like the times with my D4, my phone could never go past 1390 while a few people could, and there were others whose phone didnt like anything past 1200. Just luck of the draw.
[HTC Droid DNA] luke1333:
And what interesting things would that be?

Kernel ran fine and system tuner and kernel tuner worked fine with the previous update all the way up to 1.9 and being stable mostly just a few freeze ups a day and now this update has no freeze ups but I'm "suggested" to use system tuner and it crashes? I never blamed the kernel or you so get a grip bud. Maybe it's the kernel/system tuner apps cause I have no issues running kernel/system tuner on stock to monitor times in different states and temps. So who knows don't like somebody putting words in mouth blaming you. You better believe that if I think it's the kernels fault I will say so now after you being rude about it. Yeah maybe I got a special s off device like some idiot proclaims over in another thread. Thought devs were supposed to fix bugs here hmmmm apparently not

First, Thanks for this.

On version 1.0.2, when the screen is off and i brush more than 2 fingers from the middle of the screen across the sensor at the top then it vibrates, then when i turn the screen on the the s2w the program "HTC Media LInk HD" is open.

Also the touch screen was unresponsive once and i couldn't unlock. i was going to reboot, but decided to try the "clean the lint off" wipe that i described above and then the touch screen was responsive again.

Hope this helps with any troubleshooting. Thanks again for this, i'm still going to use it all day.
