Installed it and still hangs unfirtunately? How can i add a logcat?

I have a new HTC battery btw but when i have 15% left it drains extremely fast. Sometimes when for example playing Candy crush from 15% to 0 goes into less then 3 minutes. Thats not the worst thing but the next 15 minutes i'm not able to turn on my phone again...it first has to charge. Didn't have this with my old battery...at least can't remember that
[HTC Sensation] papikev:
You can:

(1) Grab a logcat app from the playstore

(2) logcat command through adb with your phone connected to your computer or through terminal emulator on your phone if your not in front of your computer when the issue happens.

Adb:

adb logcat -v long > logcat.txt

For more logcat commands, see here

(3) Through terminal emulator: (run the command and then reproduce your issue):

logcat -v long > sdcard/logcat.txt

It will save it to your sdcard. Just pull it and submit. The -v long command is not necessary, but it does provide a nice time stamp on the logging which should make it easier to sort through.

(4) Install this. Just unzip and run the exe. It basically does everything for you. Just plug your phone in, run the program, reproduce the error, stop the log and it will even upload the logcat to pastebin for you.

You should now be well equipped to submit your logs for the dev. By the way, there are plenty of threads to teach on how to get logcats. Please try to remember next time so the development thread does not get hijacked with OT. But at least your trying to help the dev, so that's cool.

[HTC Sensation] STk3000:
This kernel is really working out... But i believe it uses more power than stock bruce that came with his cmx rom...

I noticed that when i set maxcpu freq in cm settings and in trickstermod to 1.2ghz and badass gov trickstermod sometimes shows me core1 going slightly to 1.5 ghz.. Is that normal?
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Download No-Frills CPU Control from the Play Store and in its settings check prevent changes from other apps and try changing frequencies again. As for the high power usage of this kernel, that is to be expected considering that the 2D GPU is overclocked to 266MHz and the 3D GPU is overclocked to 320MHz. In the stock kernel that comes with Bruce's CM10 ROM, the 2D GPU is stock clocked at 200MHz and the 3D GPU is also running at its stock clock of 266MHz.

Is there any adverse affect of upping the wifi voltage, other than reduced battery life. Also is there a good reason to do so. increased performance, range?
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Personally, my WiFi signal has increased by 1-2 bars with the voltage increased. You can try Bruce's stock kernel to see if there is better WiFi reception for you (Bruce has the voltage at 2.9v and I have it at 3.6v). You can also test TamCore's kernel (TamCore has it set to 2.3v).

Kernel works well with AOSP Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs

Today I decided to test my kernel with OpenSensation and found that it ran extremely well with it and everything works with it as well. This kernel is primarily designed for Jelly Bean so it works perfectly with both Jelly Bean and AOSP Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs (it's a great gaming kernel for AOSP Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs). I also tested my kernel on a Sense ROM and everything worked except for USB connectivity. Here is a picture of what I scored with NenaMark2 on an AOSP Ice Cream Sandwich ROM (I used OpenSensation):

r6.5 released

Not a lot of changes this time around (I had finals this whole week). Biggest change was the addition of fsync control by Ezekeel. I'm starting to run out of ideas for new features, so if you have an idea for a new, performance-increasing feature (aside from CPU governors and I/O schedulers) then don't be afraid to post it (good examples of performance increasing features: increasing WiFi chip's power draw and fsync control).
[HTC Sensation] HunnyBearLewis:
Could you make an r6.5 with mpdecision in it? My cpu1 was not waking back up on 6.5 but on the r6 w/ mpdecision you posted for someone else it worked great for me.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
In r7 I'll add kernel based mpdecision and in the init.d script I'll add an option to enable it and disable it at will so that users can conveniently choose whether they want it or not. If I had received feedback back when I posted the r6 kernel with mpdecision, then r6.5 would've included this. (I'll probably release r7 tomorrow so you won't have to wait long)
[HTC Sensation] Thermaltake868:
Awesome Kernel, it would be great if USB connectivity could be fixed in sense roms.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Hmm I guess it won't hurt to try. It would also be pretty cool to have a kernel that works for all ROMs :D
[HTC Sensation] sonnhy:
Hey, you are working hard on this kernel :) congrats!!

A question: are you planning to add aroma installer?

Is this kernel only for performance? can i set up to make it battery friendly.. balanced?
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Don't really see a reason to add an Aroma installer and it'll just introduce new bugs. Yes, this kernel is primarily for performance and you can change the CPU governor to badass if you want better battery life.
[HTC Sensation] jaysun3000:
Hey y'all....what would cause the kernel to only want to use on demand governor? Because when I tried to change it in the previous version it would always revert back as soon as I leave settings any ideas I'm on jellybam

Compiling with Linaro

In my quest for trying to get USB working on Sense ROMs, I failed, but I did gain something out of trying. I managed to get my kernel compiled with the latest Linaro toolchain and I also got the kernel to be insanely smaller. I had to use some files from XxXPachaXxX's PYD-X kernel source in order to get my kernel to compile with the Linaro toolchain, so until I get permission from him, we can't have any Linaro love (I hope he says yes).
[HTC Sensation] Electriccars:
I'm interested in this kernel mainly for the slightly higher GPU overclock. I don't need to overclock my cpu more then I already do, just the GPU. I try to keep my phone with fairly decent battery life, though I have plenty of spares when I need them. :) I will be keeping my phone at 1.5Ghz or less, does this kernel have the lagfree governor? That's what I'm using and I'm pretty much lag free! Lol.

Does it work for android 4.4.2?
[HTC Sensation] Craphead:
Some things i've noticed about r44.5 installed on latest CM10.2 [oct 28th] by albinoman:

- battery lasts significantly less long in comparison to r22.5 which i've been using before. It's not like there were any wakelocks causing a drain, when the screen is off everything's normal, but when i'm using the device the time till i need to recharge is definitely shorter, even though i chose the same settings as on r22.5

- sometimes the device freezes for about 30 seconds for example when browsing websites. After that everything works just as smooth as before.

- in a few cases of freezing the device just won't un-freeze by itself. Only way to get it working again is to remove the battery.

- from time to time some apps get FC'd without any obvious reasons

- roguhly speaking maybe once or twice a week the device reboots itself. Strangely enough that happens almost only at night when the device is idle but is being recharged.

Doesn't support CallRecorder. Vibration feedback is too weak.
[HTC Sensation] V1k70r:
I see you incresed the read ahead size of the SD card to 16MB in the latest release. Setting it this high can have an inversed effect on the preformance since a lot of the data gets cached which might not be necessary. It may get you a higher benchmark score but the real-life preformance is worse. I reccomend you to change it to 2048KB in the next release.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
r7 compiled with Linaro

XxXPachaXxX said yes so now we've got some Linaro love! I also added back kernel based mpdecision for those who want it. Kernel based mpdecision is enabled by default; if you're having problems with Core1 going offline then you can modify /etc/init.d/99sultan-kernel to disable it. Let's see if anyone will score 11,000 in Antutu :D Enjoy!

Thanks for the tip; I've lowered it down to 2048KB in r7.
[HTC Sensation] V1k70r:
android1234567, in r7 you implemented mpdecision but you left the line "echo "1" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online" in your kernel init.d script. See the problem :D?

Aside from this, great kernel.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Whoops, I forgot about that. I guess I'll disable mpdecision by default in the next release. Kernel based mpdecision will still work regardless of that line running at boot, so I'll do that.

Vibration intensity is at what Bruce set it to. As for Call Recorder, I installed it and I'll test that once I get a call.

When i flash this kernel it lowers free RAM from 240mb to 110mb and in Running apps it shows 0.00mb for every app..i tried flashing v6, v6.5 and v7 and same thing with every version. What could be causing this? I'm on JellyBam ROM 3.1.0
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
The Android Logger driver was removed from the kernel itself because it doesn't help performance; all it does is log things (or it might be a different logging/debugging driver I removed). It says 0.00B because it isn't getting a reading for the memory usage of specific apps. I won't be adding any sort of logging/debugging mechanism back into the kernel because the average user is mostly concerned with the performance of apps, boot speed, etc. (the absence of these logging/debugging mechanisms won't have any adverse negative effect on the user except for probably the 0.00B thing). When I said built with performance in mind in the OP, I meant it. As for the amount of free RAM you have, that is either ROM related or related to the apps you have installed/running at boot. If you read some of the other posts in the JellyBam thread it talks about not having more than 100MB of free RAM. Also, I'm Bruce's CM10 Kang and I have no such problem (I have 180MB of free RAM).
[HTC Sensation] aaallleeennn:
I think it's related to kernel and not to rom or any installed app. With stock kernel i have about 240mb of free RAM and every app shows how much RAM it uses, and then after installation of Sultan this thing happens and then i had about 130mb RAM after reboot..few hours ago i've installed Tamcore kernel and i have 270mb of free RAM and every app shows how much uses RAM.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
I might know what's causing that, but I'll have to test my theory to see. If it really is kernel related and my theory is correct then that's a big oops on my part and I'll consider you to be a very amazing person for pointing this out to me. Right now it's pretty late so I'm going to go sleep and report my findings tomorrow.

EDIT: I just tested both TamCore's kernel and Bruce's kernel and both of them had about 300MB of free RAM, while my kernel gets about 170MB of free RAM. Well, that's not good. I also just tested a few things and couldn't figure out what was wrong, so this might take a bit longer than expected. Anyway, thank you so much for reporting this :good::good::good::good::good:

EDIT2: I've discovered that this problem first appeared in r6. I have a pretty good guess of what's causing this, and if I am right, then I will release r8 with the fix immediately.

EDIT3: I guessed wrong. Gonna try again.

EDIT4: Problem fixed! R8 has been released.

r8 released with RAM bug squashed

I've released r8 that includes a fix for the bug that caused you all to have very little free RAM and that made all apps appear to be using 0.00B of RAM in the Running section in the Apps area of Settings (thank you, aaallleeennn for informing me about this :good:). I've also included many other performance optimizations, so be sure to give feedback on whether performance improves or not. Enjoy!

I believe your problem with CallRecorder has been fixed in r8 (I re-enabled the Android Logger driver). Download r8 and tell me if it works.

I'd never leave Lagfree out, of course this kernel has it :) Lagfree is my favorite governor :D

[HTC Sensation] aaallleeennn:
I'm glad I helped with this. Free ram problem is solved but now when I set CPU to 1674 or higher my phone keeps rebooting and I must reinstall my ROM because it won't turn on :(
[HTC Sensation] Electriccars:
So how well does your kernel work with PAC-man? I'm currently running paranoid android but will soon switch. Like I said before, I want that extra 20MHz of 3D GPU power! Lol. So I'll be trying out your kernel. I just hope it runs well with PAC.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
OP says that my kernel works with any Jelly Bean ROM, and I have personally tested my kernel on JellyBam and it worked perfectly.

In the FAQ it says that overclocking is different in this kernel than the other kernels, and it also says not to set the overclock on boot unless you know it works. So far you're the only person I've seen to have a problem with the L2 cache frequency overclock :eek:. All you have to do is go into recovery and install TamCore's kernel, then your phone should turn on.
[HTC Sensation] Electriccars:
Okay. Yeah I saw that, but every ROM is different. I guess I'll be the first to find out and report on it. :)

And does this kernel support HDMI out via an MHL adapter? I asked in Q/A if it's the kernel or ROM that had to support it and someone said mostly the kernel. And since I'm thinking of switching to your kernel I would REALLY hope it supports MHL. :)

One more thing. How's the kernel with deep sleep? I'm running 3.0.53 (don't know if there's more to the name) as my kernel and I'm having trouble with deep sleep sticking. Even overnight in airplane mode! I'm suffering a 20% loss overnight because it won't stay on deep sleep. Hopefully that's not a problem? Thanks for your work! And even more so for your quick communication! :) merry Christmas.
[HTC Sensation] bokithq:
First, thank you for this amazing kernel, i love how snappy my sensation is with this one :) i have a suggestion . i see that in the new r8 kernel both cpu cores are online all the time, most of the time @384mhz. I was using 5.5 1.72ghz version previously and with that one cpu1 is online only when needed the rest of the time it stays offline while core0 is always online and at 1.72ghz. Then i saw voltages for various clock speeds in android tuner , I'm thinking that the 5.5 version consumes less power thus providing more battery, because 384mhz dualcore needs 800mV, and 1.72ghz dualcore needs 1250mV, but when core1 is offline it uses half power needed. I didnt have the time to test this but this should be the way it works. So you see the suggestion :)
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
HunnyBearLewis said somewhere in this thread that the phone went into deep sleep smoothly and without any problems. As for the HDMI support, my kernel supports it but Bruce says that it isn't working in his CM10 Kang ROM, but it isn't mentioned whether or not it's broken on the kernel or ROM level (my kernel is built off of Bruce's kernel source). I don't have an HDMI adapter nor do I have a TV with an HDMI port in it, so I can't test it. If you could test HDMI for me and tell me whether or not it's working then that would be great and I'll add it to the OP :)

Enable kernel based mpdecision in /etc/init.d/99sultan-kernel. Mpdecision is what decides when the second CPU core comes online in order to save power. Follow the problems section in the OP if you have any problems enabling it or if it doesn't work. Also, how were you able to post in a development thread without having 10 posts? o.O
[HTC Sensation] Electriccars:
Okay, :) I'll be testing it with my current configuration tomorrow. And then I'll try your kernel and Bruce's ROM. I'll also be trying it on PAC man. Any other aosp ROM you can suggest?
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
The only other AOSP Jelly Bean ROM I know of is Bruce's OpenSensation2 ROM and you can get that from here: http://files.tamcore.eu/android/?dir=pyramid

Poll added

I added a poll asking whether or not I should make a Sense kernel from XxXPachaXxX's source. The reason why I put the poll up instead of just making a Sense kernel is because XxXPachaXxX's kernel already has the GPU overclocked to the max and other performance-oriented features. If I were to make a Sense kernel then the overall difference would basically just be my kernel being more aggressive to get the most performance. I'd include increased GPU bandwidth, increased L2 cache frequency to 1.62GHz for higher overclock, the CPU governors currently found in my kernel (Ondemand, Badass, Performance, Lagfree, and Intellidemand), increased WiFi voltage, and a bunch of other random optimizations in the kernel's configuration. Please be sure to vote!
[HTC Sensation] Electriccars:
Also, since absolutely everything is set to be the best for performance, (which I like) how much does it affect battery life? It doesn't REALLY matter to me as I have quite a few batteries. :P however, the less battery changes I need to do the better. :) thanks.

Hi there, I guess this may depends on your time and energy. For my opinion as example, I really want to see your SENSE kernel, if you think it's not too difficult and won't take too much of your efforts to resolve the USB issue which I've found in SENSE ROM. I guess that'll be a PLUS for your kernel that can fit for both SENSE and AOSP ROM. Thanks and merry Christmas.

btw in the second post you state that r9 version?

Whoops! I modified that at 1:30am (was tired) so I forgot to add "(FUTURE)". Thanks for telling me

Whoa! I can't believe I actually put the modules in there... I released r8 at 2:30am because of the RAM bug so I was really tired and not thinking straight at the time. I'll update the download link so that it won't have that. Thanks for telling me :)

In the poll question it says that I'd be basing it off of PYD-X kernel so there would be a whole new thread and it would be completely different. Just by basing it off of a Sense kernel the USB problem is fixed. Also, I have enough time to be developing 2 kernels :)
