AW: [KERNEL][LINARO][JB&AOSP ICS][FASTEST][3.0.61][Aroma] Sultan kernel [r18 2/3/2013

Battery life will be worse, what do you expect?

You can't overclock, let both cores run on their maximum clock and disable that the second core goes offline without killing your battery.

Either best benchmark scores or a phone you can take further than 2 meters from the next charger. Priorities are yours to set.

Android 1234567

Awesome job...its incredible the time and effort you put into your work. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] beltani:
First, let me extend my thanks to android1234567. Without your effort over the last month, CM10 users would still be using bruce's 3.0.55 kernel build! Not to mention your excellent sense kernel, the frequency of your compiles, contributions you've made to other devs, etc...

Flashing from r17 to r18, I noticed that CPU1 was not activating with the performance governor. According to kerneltuner, setting CPU0 to performance also sets CPU1 to smartassv2. Whether that's actually happening or even relevant, I'm not sure. When I switch back to badass, both cores report the same governor and otherwise function normally.

I'm using bruce's last CM10 build, and encountered the same behavior regardless of whether mpdecision was enabled in aroma. r17 still works flawlessly. Hope this is helpful!
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Uninstall Kernel Tuner and reboot; it doesn't play nicely with my kernel and can cause weird problems as a result. Use an app like No-Frills CPU Control to change your CPU governor. Also, when you use No-Frills, go into its settings and enable the option that prevents changes from other apps.
[HTC Sensation] beltani:
I don't use kerneltuner to change governors, but I keep it installed because it reports lots of useful information. For governor changes and CPU clock changes, I use SetCPU right now. (I used No-Frills for a long time too, excellent free app!) Both SetCPU and kerneltuner (and faux123's kernel tuner, which also I have installed solely for reporting) reported CPU1 off whenever I changed the governor to performance. Kerneltuner is the only app I've found that reports the governor for each core, and I thought I'd mention that it was showing something weird.

TL;DR - Testing new kernel, used SetCPU to set governor to performance. CPU scores on the benchmarks are abysmal, check SetCPU info, only one core active. Kerneltuner and fauxclock verify only CPU0 active and governor at performance; kerneltuner also reports the CPU1 governor as smartassv2. Reflash kernel with mpdecision disabled, same results.

Hope that helps! I guess it could be a problem with SetCPU, but I've never run into something like this before :D

Re: [KERNEL][LINARO][JB&AOSP ICS][FASTEST][3.0.61][Aroma] Sultan kernel [r18 2/3/2013

@beltani

Just uninstall kernel tuner. Use android tuner free for reporting. The reason it shows up as smartass is because your cpu1 goes offline so it can't fetch the governor for it and defaults to the first governor on the list.
[HTC Sensation] davebugyi:
I made a fresh install of CM 10.1, disbled MPDecision in Aroma, and using Android tuner, and still 2nd core is offline, but the strangest is, I even can not force it online.
[HTC Sensation] allenfoxtc:
Hello, smartassV2 is suitable for single core processors, does not work on dual core processors. So, if you set cpu1 gov to smartassV2, some strange things may be shown up. If you still want to use smartassV2, just change cpu1 gov to any thing except smartassV2, and stay cpu0 gov in smartassV2.
[HTC Sensation] shadowx360:
Re: [KERNEL][LINARO][JB&AOSP ICS][FASTEST][3.0.61][Aroma] Sultan kernel [r18 2/3/2013

That would explain why I only get max frequency when using smartass. Any known fixes?

Does it work on the default kernel with comes with CM 10.1? Honestly don't have an answer for that one. R15, maybe? That was my fallback option.

[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Antutu has done that to me quite often. It says 972MHz but it's really running at the frequency you set it. I'll flag the r2 series as beta until further notice, so just go back to r1.5.

EDIT: Check if your overclocking potential is limited with this one: http://d-h.st/8k6

If it is then now I know why other people have the L2 cache frequency at 1.566GHz, and I'll create 2 kernels: 1 with higher L2 cache frequency and one with normal L2 cache frequency.
[HTC Sensation] rush420:
The r2 version would load to the lock screen an reboot
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
That's because you have an app setting your CPU frequency on boot. Turn off the feature that makes it set on boot and try r2.1, otherwise revert back to r1.5. I'll remove the L2 cache frequency increase entirely if the 1.62GHz version doesn't work/do anything for ninjabadger.
[HTC Sensation] ninjabadger:
OK so latest 1620 L2 hits approx 10000 at both 1782 and 1836.

Going to let phone cool in case some thermal throttle is in place.

Plus side is phone normally can't handle 1836.

[HTC Sensation] McPh1st0:
Tried that one. I can now OC to 1782 again but my Antutu score is way to low, almost 2500 points! With r1.5 i got 10200 @ 1782 , with the latest r2 beta not even 8000! Also Antutu crashes at the end of the benchmark...

I'll try tuning the settings for the 1.62GHz L2 cache overclock. What you're all using is my very first attempt with the settings (voltage, etc) for the L2 cache frequency overclock, so I'll test some different values. Perfecting this isn't going to be easy, but hopefully it's possible.
[HTC Sensation] Jiggs82:
So which is the most stable version of your kernel? Thanks
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
The newest one that says stable "(NEWEST) STABLE" so that would be r1.5
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Both of you try this one and tell me how it works: http://d-h.st/eL3
[HTC Sensation] Jiggs82:
Thanks:) will you updating to .55 as well?
[HTC Sensation] musa47:
Can this kennel be used as a regular driver? Because the speed just stays at the desired clocked speed and died not drop in performance and lag free governor. I fear i might fry my processor:what: but if you recommend it as safe, i think this is a very good kernel then because the gpu clocking is amazing. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] jkolner:
Where do you selct init.d script in Kernel Tuner?
[HTC Sensation] McPh1st0:
Not Bad - a step in the right direction! Got my Antutu @ 9400 @1782MHz.

I think you 're on to something!

PS: I don't like Antutu crashing on me at the end of each benchmark....

Does anybody else experience such crashes?
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Android Tuner is a different application.

The top 3 governors in the poll running will be added in a day or two (I think I'll wait until it says 100 people voted). You won't fry your processor because there are thermal safety nets in place that automatically reduce the frequency to I believe 972MHz once you hit a certain temperature threshold.

Try increasing your CPU frequency to 1.836GHz (make sure it's not set on boot). The goal of the L2 cache overclock is to allow everyone's Sensation to overclock further than they can with any other kernel, or if they can't overclock further then to make their max frequency more stable.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Scored 10,149 on this one! Tell me how it works. http://d-h.st/M2G
[HTC Sensation] jkolner:
You wrote "select init.d script" i don't realy understand that. Where do you select init.d script and why?
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
For each of the active tweaks in Android Tuner, there are 3 options for how you want them to be applied: disabled, on boot, or have them in an init.d script. Init.d script is the best choice because whatever is in the init.d folder is run at the beginning of boot, during the white screen with the green htc letters. That means your phone will not only turn on faster, but forcing both cores online is guaranteed to work (the on boot option doesn't really work for me). Download Android Tuner from the Play Store and follow the instructions I gave in the post you quoted me from.

Not sure what's going on, but when I flash the kernel r18 at 1188 MHz...it will switch to 1566 MHz after a couple hours. Even after switching it back and setting at boot, it still changes back to 1566. I tried no frills CPU control with it set up so system and apps can't change freq. But it still changes. Any ideas?

This happens like since always... I have the same problem and think I tried everything I can think of.

This did already happen in way older kernels like Tamcore's, bruce's and now sultan and in albinoman887's build of cm10.1.

There has to be a hardcoded value of 1566MHz in the code, that becomes active after deepsleep.

destiNATION88 is the one who found that core1 was forced offline only when his min freq was set to 192MHz; when it was set to 384MHz, core1 would go off and on normally. From there I found how to fix this completely so you can use 192MHz without any problems :) the problem occurs when 192MHz is set to a voltage lower than 800mV.

Thanks for your work and tremendous efforts on this!

I haven't tried r18, but albinoman's latest build worked great for me even with 192MHz on 725mV.

So this option will be gone now even for manual settings?

I know that I never had an issue with all former builds from bruce or tamcore in the last few months with low voltages on 192MHz.

Just to say that while this will be a reason in your recent testing, it might perhaps not be the root of it.

But for now enjoy the time without complains over lagginess and low scores first. ;)

Still, if you're getting wakelocks then change your min freq to 384MHz.

R18 doesn't have the change that ruins battery life but r19 has it. The batt-test1 kernel I posted above is r19 but it has the fix for battery, so your battery won't drain quickly anymore.

After a few more people confirm that battery drain is normal with the test version then I will either release r19.5 or r20 (I'm still thinking about the version number because it's a minor change). I'd like to release this as soon as possible so people don't get the wrong idea and think that battery life sucks with my kernel.
