After installing r41.5 when I edit IO Scheduler and set it SIO in 89z_kernel nothing happens!!! What should I do to make this script working?!
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
After flashing a new kernel if you wish to change some settings you should open 89z_kernel with editor included in CM file manager (to be sure proper permissions are stored) do the required changes, save, reboot to take effect. Be accurate with quotes " and spaces, while editing...

If it's not working this way, then Sultan has to take a look.
[HTC Sensation] AndresSanzH:
A 1-7 said that aroma doesnt lock frequencies but for some reason it does lock em in other roms (not in his, he said). I was complaining about that like 2 days ago and still can't find a solution :S
[HTC Sensation] soroush0313:
Here is the screenshot of what I've done so far... I double checked the permissions but the problem still exist with IO Scheduler :(
[HTC Sensation] redback_rsa:
Just reflash the kernel.
[HTC Sensation] reddvilzz:
You need to mount it to r/w first. Try root explorer it is much more simple and easy
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
the r41.5 has been giving entirely different problems for me on carbon rom (14/10 one)

over a reboot the phone's UI doesn't get setup completely

I'll be left with completely black background with all the apps and widgets on the respective screen intact.

Also i wont get status bar ..scroll down on status bar wont work ...and i wont get recent apps bar.

on earlier versions too ..whenever a crash happened and phone reboots ..phone stays the above way until long time and eventually gets restored properly (in some cases this process took couple of hours)

now on this r41.5 one crash happened yesterday ( same modem crash with lots of lowmem cases before the crash ) and then from then onwards the UI never got restored. i went back to stock kernel (did this by reflashing ROM without wipe ) and immediately the UI was fine. I went back to your kernel to confirm the problem was coming from kernel and my suspicion was correct.

I dont have any logs (diabled logcat) but i think you'll get a decent idea if i explain it ...that's why this post ( is this because too much memory is being robed from GPU to give more user memory ?)

I'll give you a screen shot once my phone gets restored

I also have rare notification bar glitches sometimes (won't pull up but stuff undeneath is pressable utill it completely stops responding) and screen freezes from time to time when used with official htc dock (cradle).

There's also an audio routing problem with Skype when bluetooth is connected. It defaults to bluetooth then shows you options to choose output device and all of a sudden switches to speaker with no other options left. And during call volume drops really low after some time.

But that's Skype, it was never a bugfree, smooth app on android.
[HTC Sensation] ems328i:
I have to say that I have been running Carbon for a few weeks, and upgraded to every new Sultan kernel without any issue (well, one time on r39 I had a reboot when charging reached 100%), it's strange that some people are having so many problems. Anyway, I have no doubt that android1234567 will get to the bottom of it, I cannot believe how fast you are getting new releases out on top of the roms that you dev.

Kudos my friend, your hard work is much appreciated!!
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
No, only SebastianFM ION kernel supports that on Revelation and ViperS 3.x.x ROMs.
[HTC Sensation] allenfoxtc:
As far as i know, the only way to keep cpu1 online(wake-able, changeable maxfreq) is setting both cpu governor to ondemand(my set: 384~(cpu0_1512000 | cpu1_1188000) ). When i change the cpu governor(it's actually change the cpu0 gov) in System Settings, cpu1 will be gone. I remember, in an earlier version(i mean very very old one), we discussed a similar problem. Maybe it's caused by the new MSM(i thought). :)
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Looks like Carbon is greedy for surfaceflinger memory (CM10.2 doesn't have this problem, so I never noticed). Back to 595MB of RAM :p

Hey [MENTION=4800121]android1234567[/MENTION], Are all versions of this kernel is now compatible with MIUI v5 or it's just latest r41.5 release?
[HTC Sensation] leos0000:
Got bootloop when flashing 41.5 on miui v5 3.10.18 crap :confused::eek::mad:
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Versions r34 through r41.5 are not compatible. R42 will be compatible.
[HTC Sensation] MrJukeHardbane:
Alright, We should wait for the next release then. Also will it be compatible with new MIUI 3.10.18?
[HTC Sensation] groovepeppy:
yes i know, both of them freeze too
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
It will be compatible with all AOSP-based ROMs, meaning it will work with all future versions of MIUI as well as CM10, CM9, etc.
[HTC Sensation] MrJukeHardbane:
Which governor is best daily driver. My usage is mainly messenger apps, V4A and xHiFi and video's and all multimedia. Not a gaming freak. Which governor is best for above usage keeping battery life in mind.?
[HTC Sensation] adame09:
Badass is best for battery life
[HTC Sensation] pyrorob:
just had a question, why does your default.prop still have ro.secure=1 ? that makes it so you cant get root access thru adb since your marking the kernel as secure..
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Default.prop is located in boot.imgs as part of the ramdisk; my kernels are packaged with zImages, not boot.imgs. Assuming you were talking about my ROM, the reason why it's set to 1 is because that's the CM default and I never overrode it in the device tree. I remember seeing ro.secure enabled a while ago but I forgot about it.
[HTC Sensation] pyrorob:
ah, ok.. im using your kernel on carbon rom.. i guess i would have to unpack the boot.img from that rom, edit, insert your zimage, repack and reflash to resolve that.. thanks
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
No need to stick in my zImage. All you have to do is unpack the boot.img from that ROM, make the changes to default.prop, repackage the boot.img, flash the boot.img, and then flash my kernel. My kernel's installer pulls the current working ramdisk from the phone and packages my zImage with in in order to create a boot.img, and then it flashes the newly-created boot.img.
[HTC Sensation] pyrorob:
ok, just figured id save myself from having to do that extra flash, if i inserted the zimage directly, unless theres a reason as to not do that?
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
You shouldn't do it if you've flashed a different kernel or a ROM update since flashing my kernel (modules won't match with my kernel and WiFi won't work). Otherwise you should be fine.
[HTC Sensation] fkardame:
Waiting for R42 :)

Great work man

Thanks alotttttttttttt

Real Racing 3 freeze after few races with every kernel afterward 31.5,with 31.5 and older kernels i can play until my battery dies.

Sometimes it freeze so i must pull battery and sometime I succeed to kill app somehow,but in most cases I must pull battery.

I use same setting with all kernels

Max freq=1512

UKSM=off

and all other is default.

And I have cm-10.2-20131011 ROM.
[HTC Sensation] ashkan-khatar:
Exactly my issue, but this is not due to racing several times, but switching among cars often causes that. Try out, it won't even last until you start a race.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
I also noticed a 10 second freeze in Temple Run 2. I will try backporting a newer HTC One GE GPU driver.
[HTC Sensation] 69gm:
Is R42 only for other ROMs? Is is worth it to flash on your ROM?

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Yes. Larger surfaceflinger memory allocation and 2D GPUs working.
[HTC Sensation] Electriccars:
Ya know, I've edited the kernel like that to enable support for Onavo Extend, but I've never thought to actually edit kernel settings like that. Who needs set CPU? Just do it myself! :D Thanks.

P.S. I've decided to keep badass governor at 1188mhz max, seems snappy and the battery life is phenomenal! :) And I can always change it of I want to. :D
[HTC Sensation] adame09:
Thanks for the update android1234567 but im gonna have to wait for feedback before i flash since my gf is using the sensation
[HTC Sensation] pogs24ever:
Im going to wait for the new gpu Driver.. Im going back to your rom
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Wow the issue is still there. I've flashed r42 yesterday and after 8 hours later the UI is not yet restored.. What shall I provide for further debugging? (only started from r41.5)
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Nothing changed from r41 to r41.5 that could influence the UI like that. Actually, if r41 worked fine for you then it makes absolutely no sense for your issue to be kernel related because the surfaceflinger and framebuffer allocations in r41 were the same as r41.5. The only memory map change in r41.5 compared to r41 was the increase of ADSP's size, and ADSP is camera memory. I'm going to install Carbon for myself to see what's going on.
[HTC Sensation] thanet:

[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Yeah it seems something is happening on my device only sadly :(

I've tried the previous versions of the kernel and still had the same issue ( which they used to work fine earlier ) but when I go back to stock kernel everything goes back normal.

I'll try a fresh and clean install of carbon ROM with this kernel and clear the issues myself

Also [MENTION=4800121]android1234567[/MENTION] are you seeing any strutters with music playback when screen off ? BTW I'm using v4a too ..but in previous versions the music playback is fine even with v4a when screen off ( I'm using default screen off setting I.e. 540 MHz)
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Music has been stuttering for me in all versions. I'll try allowing both CPU cores to be online while the screen is off.
[HTC Sensation] BSHD666:
Thank you so much for your development Android1-7, but here is some last_kmsg of r42 with random reboots, I don't know what happen maybe is my phone, but I'm so tired, I didn't have any reboot with r33, I'll stay with that version, pls if you can tell me what's wrong on my phone.. :(
[HTC Sensation] M-M-C:
Spotify is stuttering, too, if the screen is turned off and you switch songs. i tried every governor, even performance, and every cache setting, sio, bfq.... i even upped the screen off freq to 702, but no luck.

So i guess it's worth a try :)
[HTC Sensation] MrJukeHardbane:
After flashing r42 with MIUI my CRT off animation isn't working. Any issue with kernel cause it's working perfectly with r31.5.?
[HTC Sensation] groovepeppy:
Thank God i'm not alone on this one

Quite frightening to have this problem alone because no one really share this problem with me

But i'm thankful for both of you cause youre with me LOL

I always flash back to r27.5 after i found those painful freeze on RealRacing3

Too much off topic, back to it now, anyone having nice version of the kernel for playing RR3 else than r27.5?
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
Would be nice if you would make it optional :)

You're using v4a as well?
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
It's an Apollo issue, mate. Try other music apps!

Maybe I'm wrong, but that seems to be a CM bug or something...
[HTC Sensation] M-M-C:
nope, im using "equilizer": https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smartandroidapps.equalizer.unlock&hl=de

and i disabled the dsp manager with titanium backup...
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Could you try uninstall/disable "equilizer" and use V4A to check whether stuttering remains or not.

Btw V4A is like 1 000 000 000 time powerful/better then "equilizer" sound and feature wise. Just this single app will keep me buying Android phones for goood... :D
[HTC Sensation] VekiCRO:
I was thinking that i am alone until you and ashkan-khatar share this problem too :D

I got a lot of screen freezes while playing rr3 and watching MX player. After each freeze I had to reboot the phone.

Will make logs when come home.

[HTC Sensation] MrJukeHardbane:
Does your CRT off animation working with r42 with MIUI? Also the music kind of stutters with r42 with poweramp and V4A when screen is turned off. Do you have e same issues too?
[HTC Sensation] fkardame:
i can c that the CRT off animation is not working

n music stock app of MIUI works fine with screen off n i dont need any other app for music ;) coz i got ac!d sound :p

n overall i find R42 lil slow as it take few m.sec to wake up fone n put it to sleep :S

but will test it for few days n see its all fine coz i was on R24.5 n found it the perfect for my use other then the robotic sound when calling but its fine coz i cant switch speaker on n off so its goes ...

Thanks Android1-7 for updates thou :)
[HTC Sensation] longer83:
After testing r42 with latest MIUI build for few hours I can see really significant difference in MIUI speed comparing to r31.5 (with same setup as r42). ROM has become smoother, I have noticed that UI responses faster. I have observed improvement in speed of connecting to WiFi networks as well.

Only things that don't work for me so far are CRT off and on animation. I need to test that kernel little bit more to find out if r42 increases battery life remarkably comparing to previous builds.
[HTC Sensation] TiN-MAN:
So far it seems battery life is a bit lower than 31.5 and I have screen freezes now and then.. But i just updated MIUI (Clean install) so that may be the cause

[MENTION=4800121]android1234567[/MENTION]

I have Albinos latest build running with your r42 kernel.

After changing resolution of photo and video camera several times, I got a fc of the camera. After checking the log I found this.

Could it be something related to the kernel or rather app?

issue with Skype

did anyone bumped into a mic not working with Skype?

Does this relates to kernel ?

I'm on r41 right now, Carbon Rom v20130919

tried several versions of Skype, all with same non working mic.

all privacy restrictions were turned off so nothing is restricting it.

thanks
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Skype is pain in da @$$, if suitable use Viber for voice calls - really great never had any troubles with it. Just works all the time ;)

Regarding the issue - flash latest kernel. Uninstall and install again the latest Skype from play and don't mess with permissions. It's working here with r42 @ 10/18 CM10.2.

^^^ and that is why. My phone's radio/mobile network breaks down very often so I didn't think there was a kernel issue in r43. Derp. Re-uploading now.

BTW, you're fast. I removed it 2 minutes after I uploaded it :eek: No USB updates for this release. I need to add back some code necessary for our modem.
[HTC Sensation] damagedbits:
Wait... Now I'm confused lol. Is something broken or are you reuploading it tonight?
[HTC Sensation] jkolner:
There is no Simlock with r43 and therefore no simtoolkit.

[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
I present to you the fastest kernel release in history. R43.5 uploaded with the new USB drivers. Car dock has been bothering me for a really long time which is why I wanted to put out a kernel with new USB drivers.

Time for me and my bad luck to go sleep. Been a while since I derped up this badly.

Is CRT animation off animation issue is fixed with MIUI in 43.5? It wasn't working with r42.
[HTC Sensation] ximmox:
Thanks for the updates android1234567, I hope they run as well as r42, which was really nice!

Glad you offered to opt out of that both cores online while screen is off option, as I never had problems with Google Play Music while the screen was off (& also while heavier apps like runtastic were running, too). As others mentioned, the stuttering is most likely caused by buggy audio players (Apollo taking the most bugged crown I guess), so even the description in Aroma that "Audio will stutter if not both cores are online" is a bit misleading I think.
[HTC Sensation] sunanulh:
How to activate CRT OFF animation?
[HTC Sensation] TiN-MAN:
Never had shuttering with Miui music when screen is off.

the problem is with all v4xx versions.

any idea? thanks
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Seems to me like a ROM or you particular setup issue. What about dumping Carbon and switching to Sultan's CM ROM... ;)

Try this first - save skype apk from your /app/ folder and do a nandroid of your current ROM.

Format all but SD from recovery and flash Carbon/GAPPS -> Sultan r43.5

Install Skype from previously saved apk and check whether it works.

What is the difference between Simple governor by faux123 and Ondemand governor for 3d gpu scaling?

I understand that ondemand for gpu should work the same as for cpu, but what is better?

Thanks for great work, 43.5 looks awesome!
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
+1, unfortunately. It was a complete freeze, I waited about 5 minutes for a reboot (in order to upload last_kmsg), without effort. I had to do a 3 button reboot in the end.

r43.5

cpu: interactive gov, mpdecision on, 1512/540, scroff both cores online

gpu: 2d 177mhz, 3d 228mhz, simple gov

misc: sio 128kb, vsync on, fsync off, s2w off, minfree medium, uksm on

I think it's about the gpu, because I now switched to gpu stock settings (2d 200mhz, 3d 267mhz, ondemand gov) and everything is stable so far.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Were you using the Simple GPU governor?
[HTC Sensation] MrJukeHardbane:
No I am using OnDemand governor for both CPU and GPU.
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
Maybe you could give some more information, to make troubleshooting easier to the developer ;). Which settings did you use in aroma? Basic or advanced configuration? What did you change? To get an idea, look at this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46738261&postcount=2574
[HTC Sensation] MrJukeHardbane:
I used advanced option in Aroma. 1566 MHZ/540 MHz, OnDemand governor, stock frequency for 2D and 3D GPU. S2W with no backlight, SIO, Vsync and Fsync kernel stock, no UV.

Edit : CRT off animation still doesn't work with MIUI. It worked one time and that's all.
[HTC Sensation] M-M-C:
Battery seems a bit worse with 43.5 (but im playing with the new gpu performance setting) but Spotify doesnt stutter any more :) both cores while screen off really do something
[HTC Sensation] smint86:
r43.5

cpu: interactive(!) gov @ 1512/540, both cores scroff

gpu: stock, ondemand gov

misc: fsync off, minfree medium, rest stock (no uv)

So... Battery life is definitely not worse ;)

[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
The CRT animation in 4.1.X ROMs needs a delay added to the kernel when the screen is turned off so the animation has time to load. Forgot to add it to r43.8.

Speaking of which, I went through some of the feedback and made r43.8. Let's see if the GPU hangs on this one (I did some very heavy gaming for 20 minutes and my phone didn't hang).
[HTC Sensation] dohclude:
Seems like my 2nd core is s till refusing to come online after a while, even after forcing it online with android tuner. Rebooted a few times, still nothing.

Yes please! :D
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
The highest I got it to go is 3.6v. Right now it is set at 2.9v. I will increase it to 3.6v in the next build. Also, just curious, does it really help with Wi-Fi signal?
[HTC Sensation] Tung_meister:
I'm having the same issue, I can't get CPU1 online at all, I've tried various tools, rebooting, clearing all the extra init.d scripts but nothing works it just stays offline constantly.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
In about 15-20 minutes I'll release r5.5 that'll automatically force both CPU cores online when you flash it.

EDIT: Actually, it'll probably be released in about 1 hour because I have to recompile the kernel for some other changes in r5.5 on my ultra-slow laptop.
[HTC Sensation] Tung_meister:
I've done some testing and the issue only occurs if I change the Governor from performance. After I've just flashed the kernel or when I disable any tools/ Cyanogenmod CPU settings both cores will function fine but as soon as I try and change any CPU related configuration CPU1 goes offline and never comes back.
