He did release 2.3.5 if your interested...
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Shoot, I didn't see that. I'll try it :)

Random question, do you guys know why I might be losing 10-15% battery on reboots? I read something about it being related to the kernel. Regardless of if it is or isn't, is there a way to decrease that number? I'm actually running almost fully stock, just debloated/deodexed and stock settings on D's kernel.

Maybe removing the boot animation?
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
Update to the new one. The battery thing isn't real. It just inst keeping track properly. Most ROMs fix it.

[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
K! :)

Btw, checked dmesg.

Either way, flashing 2.3.5 now.
[HTC Droid DNA] Arte Suave:
Thanks D
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
New version up.

Real patch for HSIC wakelock, removed hacks for it.

Other fixes.

Haha awh man I JUST flashed 2.3.5 xD

ah well, doesn't bother me :P Thanks for the updates!!
[HTC Droid DNA] PhantomApollyon:
Loving the work, thanks bro!
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
Hey, DSB. Just had my first "sleep freeze"... haven't rebooted yet as I was just prepping to post my info and retrieve the log file...

running 2.3.3....at this point should I just ignore posting this one, reboot the phone and flash 2.3.9?
[HTC Droid DNA] osuron07:
So 2.3.5 froze my phone on once it booted up almost instantly, and I can happily say that I had a much better experience flashing 2.3.9 and it booted right up, looking forward to testing this kernel :).
[HTC Droid DNA] PhantomApollyon:
at this point I would probably just ignore it and flash the latest version so he can troubleshoot easier if a problem persists.
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
Yeah, That's what I was thinking...have the logfile JIC but I figured these are more helpful while on the current kernel version!
[HTC Droid DNA] PhantomApollyon:
exactly, I'd hang on to it in case D chimes in and wants it but I doubt it :good:
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
Whoa...seemed to be running great on 2.3.9 after flash except I could swipe to sleep easily, but it all of a sudden would take 3-5 swipes to wake (though the power button still woke the phone immeidately).

Tried a reboot to see if the condition would remedy itself, upon reboot system tuner reported CPU 0 N/A then my battery which was at 55% then immediately rpeorted it was at 0% and not plugged in (which it was into my laptop) and my phone shut off.

Anything else you tweaked: Nothing Kernel wise.....Team Blackout Lock Ring Mod, Boot Animation Sound removed mod, Recent Apps Button Mod, Wifi Notificaiton Remover, 4.2 Stock Camera, Keyboard and CLock with Builprop tweak to enable photosphere, Bloatware Remover v3 Mod,

And a log- attached

Let me know if you see anything of use DSB! Thanks!
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
After another reboot all is back to normal except for the consistant 3-5 swipe to wake attempts.

Going to reflash the boot.img and modules for this again.

if same behavior then flash the go back to stock kernel and modules then try to go back to 2.3.9.

Will report back in a few!
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I'm noticing it too, sometimes I have to swipe it a few times before it unlocks.
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
Also from sleep I can Swipe to wake the phone from going right to left (from Home button to Back Button)...I thought right to left was only for gong to sleep and left to right (back button to home button) was only to awake?

I cannot put the phone to sleep with a left to right motion however, which I believe is correct.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
Switched back to prior version with no other changes and swipe to wake works normally.
[HTC Droid DNA] jdec529:
2.3.9 seems solid except swipe to wake. I can wake by swiping right to left, then right to left again to sleep. sometimes buttons light up, but screen don't wake. Power button works fine though. Everything else seems solid. thanks D!

Edit: was just messing around with it a little more, and sometimes it works without issue and works how it is suppose to and other times it doesn't
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
reflashed 2.3.9...runs smooth but still have the STW issue.

will also get an occasional quick sleep mode (within 2-5 seconds) while phone is on even though my timeout is 30 seconds.
[HTC Droid DNA] holla420:
hmm...everything was going smooth on the new kernel til my phone freezed up then its stuck at the boot animation screen. Ive done multiples hard reboot and still stuck at the boot ani screen. I'm not sure wat to do now..has anyone else got this or know whats goin on here
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
Power and Vol Down until it boots into HBOOT...then you can fastboot and flash the kernel again or a different one should work? You may need to sideload the modules zip for whatever kernel you flash if they are not on your SD card already
[HTC Droid DNA] holla420:
did that and still stuck at the boot animation screen. This sucks dont tell me i'm gonna have to take me phone up to vzw to get this to replace or fix this problem
[HTC Droid DNA] jamesbra:
Restore either a full backup or just the boot partition from a backup. It has fixed this problem for me an several others on other kernel versions.

edit: also you wouldn't need to go to verizon. Worse case scenario you factory reset and reunlock with the boot token htc gave you. It was covered a few pages back for a user who had a bad flash and didn't have a back up.
[HTC Droid DNA] Cadillac Johnson:
Maybe a stupid question, but have u tried flashing a backup? Have to reflash the modules zip after.

I know they don't tell the real story, but it's nice to look at!
[HTC Droid DNA] holla420:
never had that happend before.i been on all of dsb kernels so i know i followed directions..makes me kinda scared to reflash the kernel.dont want me phone spazzin out on me again
[HTC Droid DNA] PhantomApollyon:
That's interesting to hear because I thought that problem was just my imagination playing tricks on me but my device has done this a few times over the past few weeks and I just wrote it off as nothing. I've not seen any issues with S2W or S2S at all on 2.3.9 so far.
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
I had to use my Nandroid from the 29th ...no mater what I do when my phone dislikes a cubed kernel version, it will not go back to stock kernel properly when I flash the stock one

It either keeps all 4 cores online at 384 at rest or says CPU 0 is N/A (in system tuner) and the phone runs very hot.

To make things even more intersting, before flasing back to my nandroid, I flashed the stock boot.img and modules twice, and when they weren't behaving I flashed the CubedDNA Stock System write kernel, and similar behavior.

At that point I rebooted into recovery, wiped data/factory reset, wiped cache, wiped Dalvik, formated cahce, fornmatted data, formatted system and resotred from my backup of 12/29 that had the stock kernel in it.

On reboot, all is smooth, but WiFi doesn;t work which is odd because it did on that backup. When I look at Settings About phone and look up what kernel I'm running...it says I'm running the DSB Cubed DNA Stock System Write...lol

If I am correct, that defies the laws of physics as a Nanroid backip includes the kernel you were running at the time correct?

conisdering I only downloaded and flashed th Cubed DNA Stock System write tonight I can assure you I was running the sotck kernel on my nandroid backup of 12/29

Fun Fun Fun! :) Going to flash the stock kernel and modules again then wipe/factory reset etc and restore again and se what happens!
[HTC Droid DNA] Arte Suave:
On 2.3.9 I'm having the quick sleep issue. Screen just shuts off randomly every few seconds. Had never seen it on previous versions.
[HTC Droid DNA] trickster2369:
When you restore a backup, you are NOT restoring the kernel that was backed up with it. It's not possible to restore kernels through restores until we get s-off.
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
If we can write to /system in reocvery why wouldn't the kernel be backed up in a nandrod and put back when resotred?

I thought it would be but if not that's a bummer! :(
[HTC Droid DNA] PhantomApollyon:
I had it a few times when I first flashed but now a few hours later it appears to not be doing it anymore at all, very strange and hard to track down the cause.

your nandroid will not restore your kernel, you still have to flash the boot.img in fastboot for sure
[HTC Droid DNA] trickster2369:
The write to /system dsb has in this kernel allows us to write to the /system partition while booted into the os. This means we can use things such as ad blockers, uninstall apps via titanium backup, etc, and have them stick after rebooting. It has nothing to do, unfortunately, with being able to write to the boot partitions.
[HTC Droid DNA] bakemcbride21:
I see says the blind man! lol explains why WiFi didn't work after the restore!

back to norm after flashing the sotck kernel and modules over the cubed stock system write one...
[HTC Droid DNA] Cadillac Johnson:
Actually you don't, you just need to flash the modules. Any img's flashed in fastboot or at the bootloader level persists through wipes and ROM flashes.

You could flash from one ROM to another and just flash the modules in recovery and the kernel would still be there. In fact I did just that the other day.
[HTC Droid DNA] jamesbra:
After the discussion in the last several posts am I off base in understanding that restoring backups does restore the boot partition? I'm no Dev but it seems like when our device doesn't like a kernel it won't accept another one like the boot partition is somehow bad I.e. bad flash and that restoring a backup or factory resetting does restore the boot partition because that's what allows it to work again. I don't feel like s-off keeps us from writing to the boot partition because we write to it to flash our kernels. If not some clarification please?

sent from my unlocked and rooted droid DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] JTNiggle:
Yes, ur off base. You can only write the boot partition through fastboot, seems like you would know that if you'd flashed any of these kernels.

Sent from the Home Depot toilet
[HTC Droid DNA] jamesbra:
No, you're wrong because one can flash to boot from the flash_image binary and from restoring back ups. Try again moron.

sent from my unlocked and rooted droid DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] JTNiggle:
Sorry, forgot about flash image, which is dumb because I use it. I dunno how that app does it, but the real thing we're talking about here is that recovery cannot write the boot partition

Sent from the Home Depot toilet
[HTC Droid DNA] jamesbra:
Also that wasn't my question. The question was why does restoring boot partitions from backup fix these certain problems discussed earlier. I guessed some sort of "bad flash" where the boot partition had changed in some way. I'm not sure of that exact mechanism and if someone knows I would like to know more about it.

sent from my unlocked and rooted droid DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] JTNiggle:
Double post
[HTC Droid DNA] jamesbra:
I didn't mean moron, I was just reacting to you saying I hadn't tried these kernels. They all work the same way (fast boot and flash_image) but it isn't the point. :)

sent from my unlocked and rooted droid DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] JTNiggle:
I dunno about all the issues people are having, I've had zero trouble, but haven't tried 2.3.9 yet. As far as a restore fixing issues, the only thing you'd be changing is undoing the modules you flashed. Over my head, so I'll leave it alone now.

I flashed the boot with flash image and booted to recovery and flashed the modules zip. Guess I'm lucky for now, and my cpu is "nominal"

Sent from the Home Depot toilet
[HTC Droid DNA] jamesbra:
But the restore does change the boot sector? In the advanced restore boot is an option and choosing it has fixed problems for me. Over my head too sir I was just asking for illumination. Thank you for making the question clearer. I also use flash image to flash all my kernels

sent from my unlocked and rooted droid DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
Restoring cannot put boot back. That requires S-Off. Recovery will back it up, but cannot put it back.

From what I can tell from the logs, the vast majority of these catastrophic failures are due to corruption on data or system. The folks looking at things with me have not been able to figure out why this happens. Speculation is a poor EMMC driver and hopes are it will get fixed in an update.

[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I wonder if HTC even knows of the problem because most people just reboot the phone, plus the information showing the cause of the failure is burried in a log that most users don't know how to retrieve.
[HTC Droid DNA] S121Guy:
Not sure wtf happened. But ever since i did 239 my phone freezes every 5-10 mins. And then the screen gets these crazy color vertical lines on it. A reboot seems to fix it. I'm going to go back and see if i did something wrong and reflash 235 since i had no issues with that.

Just had an sod on 239.

[HTC Droid DNA] x70xchallengerx:
I flashed 2.3.9 last night immediately after flashing 2.3.5 and had nothing but constant freezes :( it actually locked up after opening Google Voice for the first time since flashing the ROM (about a week) and wouldn't boot back again... I had no nandroid so I had to re-flash. That actually happened again this morning too :( I flashed the rom again then flashed 2.3.5 and the modules and it's been working fine since, besides one freeze when moving the power toggles widget... not sure how useful that info is ^

Running the v1 of 320DPI rom, and kernel 2.3.5 / 2.3.9

all stock gov/freq/schedulers
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Has anyone gone more than a day on either 235 or 239 without an SOD? I haven't made it 24 hrs. At least not on 239, didn't run 235 that long.

Edit: Just had a full lockup on 239 after a call. ADB went offline too. Flashing back to 235, will report back :)
[HTC Droid DNA] RLKirk:
I had one on 2.3.5 but only after messing with it. Leaving 2.3.9 as is since I like swipe to wake. Wish HTC wouldnt have completely changed the way these phones handle partitions and storage. It has really made evryones life a pain in the you know what to play around with these things lol
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Yea, I've ran stock settings. 2.3.9 froze twice in 3 hours. Let's see how 2.3.5 runs.

I had this last night. I had to do a backup
[HTC Droid DNA] SAMPCam:
So far so good on v2.4.0.

Quick question, which Linaro toolchains are you using? I think a new version just got released. Maybe updating may fix a bug or two?
[HTC Droid DNA] ml3000:
lol... great... my dumb ass hasnt done any backups.

I tried flashing back to the stock kernal to see if I could get it to boot and no go. I am thinking about flashing a rom now that is on this forum? since.. really, what can it hurt at this point. Think that will work? Do the roms on this forum generally carry the kernel as well?
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Hmm, just had a SOD on 235 afte a call. lol. Off to 240 LOL.

Even with all the reboots, we still use the power button less than with stock. hahah!

And another SOD on 2.4.0.
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
DSB, if the SOD problem is a poor EMMC driver, I'd hate to see you continually spin your wheels until a new driver is pushed. Is it realistic that changes in the kernel will solve or bypass these problems until an update comes out?

I know you're putting a ton of time into this and if what you're doing is not the problem, like I said, I don't want you to keep "chasing your tail".
[HTC Droid DNA] dsb9938:
No idea what causes that, 99% of the people who say they had one don't post a log.

The problem I was talking about is where the phone doesn't boot till you pretty much wipe everything.

[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
We are talking the kmsg, right?
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
NP, I thought you were talking about the SOD with no boot problem.
[HTC Droid DNA] trickster2369:
If it makes a difference, my experience is this:

I have had lock ups(at least one) on each of the last 3 versions. But only when I install System Tuner. If I uninstall it, and flash the kernels, I have not had lock ups. After I re-install it, even if I don't make changes, I will get a lockup eventually. I went all day Sat, into Sun, without a single lockup on 2.3.5 without any cpu controllers installed. Might just be coincidence, but I don't know for sure.

Thanks for sacrificing your time for this.
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
I have the opposite problem. I was running completely stock. I have rom toolbox installed (occasionally used for memory, but never touched cpu settings), think that has anything to do with my lockups? So far today I've had about 6 lockups. This is with 2.4.0. Temporarily I'm back on the unsecured DSB posted. I'm working tonight, I wanna make sure the phone's not locking up.
[HTC Droid DNA] trickster2369:
Not sure, as I don't use Rom toolbox. I do know that since I locked up around 1 today, on 2.3.9, I uninstalled System Tuner and haven't had one since.
[HTC Droid DNA] iOSh8er:
FYI for those that may be following, this did not help my s2w issue.
[HTC Droid DNA] hkbladelawhk:
Hmm, this makes me wonder. I hate having to use the power button on these things. But then again, ROM toolbox doesn't show as running, so I don't see how that could be causing it.

Could Deep Sleep battery saver be causing issues?
[HTC Droid DNA] trickster2369:
One way to find out......

Uninstall, not freeze, all cpu controlling apps of any kind, reflash kernel/modules just to start fresh, and see what happens. One by one, reinstall cpu controllers(app only, no data) and see if they cause issues.
[HTC Droid DNA] itzjonjon69:
sorry for the nooby question but, if i'm running an older version of the kernel and upgrade to the newest is there anything special need to do when it it comes to installation?
[HTC Droid DNA] trickster2369:

You are not the only one, this is driving me up the wall. I battled with my phone for 10 minutes straight unlocking, it'd relock and sleep, unlocking, it'd relock and sleep... I actually screamed WTF at my phone.. thankfully my roommate is gone and didn't hear my frustration. I'm hoping 2.4.0 fixes this because otherwise I'm going back to stock.
[HTC Droid DNA] JTNiggle:
Yeah, the newest version fixed the bug that allowed us to use it. You can go back to 1.4.9 and it will work on our dna's.

Hi Jesse,

Thank you for contacting me about support for the Droid DNA. I have fixed the mis-identification issue as many supported and new users were confused at Flash Image GUI mis-identifying their device and wondered whether or not to trust the application.

I spent five hours on New Years Eve working with a Droid DNA tester to ensure full compatibility with all the features in Flash Image GUI.

I hope to release an updated version either today or tomorrow.

Thanks again for your support and Happy New Year!
