Before switching back to AOSP (I flash a lot) I tested this kernel (v1.0) last night with ARHD. I used Tasker and data sync automation to disable sync at night and enable it a few times during the day (every two hours). That was the first time I saw a -0.4% per hour discharge rate while I sleep. Sync and push notifications really hurt the battery a lot, I believe it should be scheduled by Android instead of a free-for-all for each and every app.

if I'm not mistaken htc sense automatically cuts syncing at certain hours late night to early morning as a battery saving feature...

Re: [KERNEL] hXORe for sense [INTERNATIONAL]

Probably but I've never been happy about the discharge rate, even at night. I've come close a few months back but only after disabling a lot of what makes the phone "smart".

i usually turn off my internet connection at night plus greenify app. helps a lot with discharge rate

Hey bedalus,

Would you recommend that users repack your kernels e.g. with the one at http://nibble.cc/repack/

Thanks
[HTC One X+] :
Only if your ROM doesn't work properly. If everything works (GPS for example) then don't worry
[HTC One X+] :
BLX is short for Battery Life eXtender.

It does not make your battery keep its charge for longer. You won't be able to use it for 5 days on a single charge or anything like that.

I set mine to stop charging at 90% (using the updated app). So actually, my phone will run out of power sooner. This is not a problem for me, because I always charge it up every night, and I never let it get below 20%. Keeping the battery between 90% and 20% charged helps prevent the lithium ion compound from wearing out. This means that the battery remains healthy.

The original thread for BLX is here.

Sixaxis Compatibility

Hi, i was just wondering if this Kernel would be compaible with the Sixaxis app to use my PS3 controller when playing games. does it use the same bluetooth drivers as stock? and if not is there any alternative besides going to an AOSP based Rom? i really don't want to be detached some Sense, can't function without it somehow lol. i know part of these comments may best be left in the General discussions section but while i'm checking on your Kernel might as well get everything else out the way right? thanks
[HTC One X+] :
Re: [KERNEL] hXORe for sense [INTERNATIONAL]

I don't think so, but I'll look into adding compatibility. I'll get back to you when I know more.

Random reboot

I've just had a random reboot on 1.1 while changing the charging limit in CoreManager. Going back to 1.0 for now. Logcat attached.

Re: [KERNEL] hXORe for sense [INTERNATIONAL]

I'll have a look when I get home
[HTC One X+] Notechis:
I do not have reboots with that tool, but I changed to trickster . All is working fine there ,too.
[HTC One X+] :
Ok, looking through the last_kmsg, it looks like the problem starts with:

[14817.230977] init: no such service 'reboot-monitor'

[14817.231129] SysRq : Emergency Remount R/O

...looking for reboot-monitor, the only reference in the kernel is in the ramdisk.

You could upload the boot.img of the ROM you're using? Then I can see if there is a difference. Or, you can use the repacking tool which was mentioned in the thread recently: http://nibble.cc/repack/ ...If you do that, obviously there's no way to know whether the problem is solved or not until some considerable time has passed.
[HTC One X+] saitch76:
Thanks. Here is the boot.img from InsertCoin 3.7.4. md5 sum is:

I tried repacking the kernel using nibble.cc but it was very laggy so I doubt that is a solution.

One additional query: any plans to include led multiplier options?

Re: [KERNEL] hXORe for sense [INTERNATIONAL]

what's that?
[HTC One X+] :
Re: [KERNEL] hXORe for sense [INTERNATIONAL]

If you mean the backlight for capacitive buttons, I'm not going to change that. If you mean something else, do you have a link?
[HTC One X+] saitch76:
Re: [KERNEL] hXORe for sense [INTERNATIONAL]

No its not that. Some kernels override the time limit that the notification led blinks for e.g. when a sms is received. I used to have this set up on my old Pyramid so that the led would blink indefinitely so I didn't have to keep switching the screen on to check for emails and sms.

I'll look through the Pyramid forums and post a link for a kernel that does it.
[HTC One X+] nealkoy:
Re: [KERNEL] hXORe for sense [INTERNATIONAL]

or can also be found in Elite Kernel thread. this was implemented some versions ago... unlimited led blinking right? :rolleyes:

[HTC One X+] :
Oh okay. There's a similar mod in my nexus s kernel. I'll have a look at that too.
[HTC One X+] :
Right, I extracted the ramdisk and unfortunately reboot-monitor is listed there too. If it's present in the original ROM's one, and my ramdisk, then that's not the cause of the reboot.

So, the other option is that I caused an instability when I added BLX. The code I added looks fine but it might be possible that because it relies on a hardware device that my function call requires some kind of exclusive access like a spinlock or mutex. I'll see if any other more experienced developers can help.

It's the most likely reason since the kernel message immediately before the reboot is:

[14808.014380] [PMU_GAU]Get tps80032 gauge updated capacity = 4310873650uAs total time = 23006000ms

[14808.018422] [BATT] power_supply_changed: battery at 14803095970315 (2013-04-01 17:28:23.905888002 UTC)

and the code to generate this message is at drivers/power/tps80032_gauge.c

and my BLX code is at arch/arm/mach-tegra/htc_battery_tps80032.c

which is obviously the same device. Two bits of code shouldn't try to use the same device at the same time!

To other kernel devs:

Am I right in thinking if I add

mutex_lock(&htc_batt_limit_charging_lock);

mutex_unlock(&htc_batt_limit_charging_lock);

around

htc_batt_set_full_level(get_charginglimit()); on line 995 here

...it will prevent deadlock?

v1.2 is here: http://d-h.st/7Lx

CoreManager.apk is here: http://d-h.st/HJg

-easy app for setting the number of cores

-allows setting of fast-charge toggle and charge limit

-now remembers settings!

Please grant super-user permissions

My kernel config

-GPU OC

-Slide to Wake [S2W]

-NO-OP IO scheduler

-No hotplugging

-Power saving companion core not active when screen is on (prevents lags)

-Companion core active when screen is off (higher speed cores not allowed)

-User defined core activation (use the above app)

-smartmax governor by maxwen (tuned for performance)

-limited to one core by default

-enabling more cores adjusts the cpu frequency governor parameters automatically

-when the camera is activated, a minimum of two cores will be available for smooth video recording

-added fast-charge to kernel (thanks maxwen!)

-added BLX (thanks ezekeel)

-added ticket based rwsem algorithm and google's tcp proportion rate reduction algorithm

This release updates some technical bits, includes a minor fix for smartmax governor, and fixes the Core Manager app to work without crashing! I'm really pleased with the app, because it now remembers settings when you close and re-open it.

If you reboot, to reapply your settings, just open the app, and hit the Save and Exit button, and it will restore what-ever settings you were using! :D

If you don't want to apply or save the settings, just back out using the phone's back key.

cifs.ko

Hi,

is it possible to mount cifs with your kernel?

I can't get it work with any kernel so it would be nice, if you could test it.
[HTC One X+] :
I didn't enable cifs because I don't use it, but I'll make one for you when I'm home
[HTC One X+] :
cifs enabled version: http://d-h.st/7o7
[HTC One X+] saitch76:

[HTC One X+] dafreeze01:
you did it!
[HTC One X+] :
Nothing, unless you use cifs
[HTC One X+] ryanjsoo:
How can I change the cpu governor using scripts to interactive?
[HTC One X+] :
No other governors are available. Smartass and on-demand are my two favorite governors, and maxwen has made smartass work by using parts of on-demand, so for me it seems like the best available option. Adding other governors just bloats up the kernel.

Smartmax does have tunable parameters though.
[HTC One X+] ryanjsoo:
Ok, thanks, smartmax works well anways, just curious.
[HTC One X+] saitch76:
There was a lot of debate on the Pyramids forums about I/O schedulers and SIO was benchmarked as the most efficient from a range of kernels. Any thoughts?
[HTC One X+] :
I've done testing of my own, and there's very little difference. There's some results earlier in the thread. I've picked noop since it works well and requires very little processing overhead.

Yes, I checked, you don't need to load a module, because md4 is built into the kernel. It should just work. You could PM the guy who asked for it (previous page) because he said it's working for him.

You probably need to make sure the stock kernel modules are in /system/modules too. You might find a copy of them in your rom zip

[HTC One X+] anko184:
Yeah i know that, but i can't get how they changed when i only flashed your boot.img and nothing else.. If i'm correct your kernel's modules are built in the kernel, right? So your kernel doesn't change anything in modules folder...
[HTC One X+] :
No, they are built separate. All the modules are stored in the ramdisk. I'm using nik3r's kernel injector method: https://github.com/niker/elitekernel_oxp/tree/jellybean/kernelinjector.oxp

The modules all get replaced by those stored in the ramdisk as soon as you boot.

Hey folks.

Anyone that uses this phone have your callers been complaining about echo back. I called my sister (whom has this phone) and I can hear my voice back. All her friends say its the same deal.

It's really pissing her off now, she get around it by using a headset but is there a fix? I saw a patch from yaldak however it's for ICS only.

She is currently using the latest unofficial AOKP rom, but she had the same issue on SlimBean (hence why I tried loading AOKP now).
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyDanger:
Hello everyone. Right now I have an Acer Iconia A100 7" tablet. I really want a 10" tablet but dont have a lot that I can spend for one. Ive been looking at the Xoom for a little while now since I can find them around the $200 range if Im lucky. The question is, with the Nexus 10 out now, is it still worth it to get a Xoom or would it be better to hold out a few months and save for a Nexus 10?

And if it helps, I would be using the tablet for a little of everything. Internet, music, movies, games and a lot of reading (mostly comics).

I greatly appreciate any info that can be provided.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Draxin:
Well, kinda depends on your needs. Xoom is and has always been a strong tablet, but at two years old, it is starting to show it's age.

Xoom is a versatile, solid, all around tablet, 32 gb with expandable storage, bluetooth, hdmi, and usb. It's weakness's mainly are the backlight, it's heft (for some) and it's age. 720p display, and about impossible to see outside during daylight(sunlight and overcast.) Tegra2 is a good processor but dated and unable to take advantage of all the benefits of newer games demanding the power of a quadcore like the tegra3 ( dead trigger.) Right now it is very minor things we are missing out on. Eventually there may be games we can't play at all. More than likely Jelly bean is the last official update the xoom will get. I can't speak for the developers. If you don't care about latest and greatest, but need something fully functional and good bang for the buck...... xoom is a definite option

Nexus 10 has a great display, true 1080p, and the A15 cortex dual core processor destroys the tegra3 quad core in comparison tests from what I have read. It is the closest any tablet has come to being what the xoom was two years ago. The deal breaker for me is no expandable storage.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the great info Draxin. You have me some things to think about. I can do without the 1080p and thinking about it I'm not sure that running the newest and greatest games matters. On the other hand viewing outside is kind of a big deal.

Decisions decisions.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mjamocha:
Lol, sorry Drex - showing its age? La La La La ... not listening. :D(covering ears) Any device is relative to it's users needs. Newer is not always better. Bigger, faster, lighter most likely (in some aspects, other areas maybe not). Does it really suit my needs? Probably not. The next best thing, will be replaced by the next best thing the following year. Vicious cycle my friend. Marketing is evil and we consumers are its puppets :eek: They can always count on that buyer that must have the newest whatever. We are making these guy rich lol.

Happy New Year! Xoom Xoom-
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Draxin:
True. But Johnny Danger isnt looking to sell off a xoom, he wants to know if it is a viable option still in the 10 inch market. So he needs to ask himself what he wants from his new tablet before purchasing. Xoom is a fantastic tablet and easily one of the best purchases I have made, but I made my purchase almost a year ago when it was still running honeycomb stock and developers were porting ICS. I Got to watch it make leaps and bounds in functionality, smoothness, and reaching for the limits of it's potential. Now developers are facing the limitations of the space in the system partition for OS. And it sounds like they can't scrape any extra space from the internal sd or make some available on the ext. sd cause it is locked. So if Johnny Danger wants a solid, hard working tablet that can do anything he wants to do now, and should be able to do most(if not all) tasks in the future, the xoom is a perfect fit, he just needs to be aware that what we have now may be close to as good as he will get over the next two years of ownership(not saying it is bad), just saying don't expect much more from Motorola.

If he wants the latest and greatest games at their full potential, see movies in full resolution get OTA's of newer OS's and have a tablet equipped to get the most out of anything coming down the pike in the next two years, he needs to save up and get the nexus 10, conveniently priced at around the same range the xoom was when it first came out
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nhan Lam:
If you asked 3-4 months ago, well yes.. But now there is no reason to buy a 2 years old device (and was out AOSP) with price ~$300.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyDanger:
Well I went ahead and got a xoom. I bought a used one on Craigslist and feel that I got a good deal. I got 32gb xoom, original box and charger, official Motorola xoom cover, and 2 screen protectors for $150.

I absolutely love it. Everything runs great, including the games I play. My son was watching YouTube videos on it and sometimes it hiccups but that doesn't bother me. The thing that really took me by surprise is the battery life. It lasts so long on a charge. Now I understand why people were so upset with the Acer iconia tab a100 battery life. This is one of the fewer purchases I have no regrets about. Just a fantastic tablet.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbross3030:
Good on ya! I really don't think you'll have any regrets, it's still a very speedy tablet and the build quality is unsurpassed.

You are not lying about the build quality. This thing feels so well made its incredible.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cubanluke88:
You're kidding yourself if you think it has anything to do with marketing. The Xoom has been showing its age for a while. Its great that devs continue to bring us the latest firmware but even they have acknowledge that the Xoom's limits are being pushed.

It is as you said, relative to needs, but I think its also good to think about the future. What will a 2 year old device be able to do a year from now? Two years from now?

I'd say save up honestly and hope for a sale on the N10 (tho it looks like the OP already invested v0v)

Thanks Alex, I will see about doing that.

@Cubanluke88, Im well aware that a 2 year old device is not going to be on par with the most recent devices, like the N10. But at this point it was a matter of me wanting a 10" tablet that would do what I needed it to do now. I may still get a N10 in a few months and just give my Xoom to one of my kids (I have three, two that are teens). But for right now, its working great and I couldnt be happier. Especially at the price I paid. I might be getting a new job soon and if I do, Im going to be taking a hour train ride to work and back and Im just happy to know that Im going to have a nice big tablet to provide entertainment on those train rides if I do get the job.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dyflinn:
Xoom or Xoom II or Xoom II ME?

Like the OP I'm looking to get a reasonably priced tablet for Browsing, a little eReading and some video watching. It's hard enough to justify what is really a gadget purchase and I certainly can't justify the ~€500 price ranges of the top tablets. My target is around the €200 mark.

I like the look of the Nexus 7, but the small screen bothers me a little. I've a Sony Xperia S and 7 inches doesn't seem to give me enough of a boost over it's 4.3 inches to justify spending €250. So I'm looking at reputable brands which have been discounted (due to age or market forces) rather than the budget trinkets that you can get. I even considered a heavily discounted Playbook (~€170) but that's just too far out of the park in terms of OS, support, etc.

I can get a Xoom II (16 GB, WiFi) for about €280, but thats at the upper end of my target budget. I can get a Xoom (32 GB WiFi) (B-stock, new but damaged/opened packaging) for €200, and that has my attention. But I'm worried about the processor speed and the display. I could also get a new Xoom II ME (16 GB, WiFi) for about the same price, €200. Apart from the newer specs (a faster processor and better screen), the 8.2 inch format strikes me as possibly more portable (for use while commuting). WiFi only is also fine for me as when I'm not in a normal WiFi area I'll use my Xperia S as a hotspot.

So, given my budget limitations and the fact that it's probably for light browsing/reading use (some videos while on holidays perhaps), would the Xoom II ME or the older Xoom be the best bet? Is the new screen a worthwhile upgrade? Thoughts please?

-----------------------

Update: Having read a bit more about portability and useability of the various sizes (7, 8 and 10) I'm leaning towards the Xoom 2 ME.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalkat579:
Actually there are quite a few new screen prtectors that dont degrade the quality that allow you to still see your xoom in the sunlight
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dyflinn:
Well, I finally plumped for the Xoom 2 ME. 8.2 inch screen, price (€200 vs €250) and mini HDMI clinched it over the Nexus 7, plus I really think that I don't need Quad Core nor will I do for a few years yet. Portability beat the Xoom or Xoom 2.

Only qualm is that I ordered it from Expansys as they had the best price (by about €25). For a mainstream seller it has far more negative reviews than it should have (they should really take their Facebook page offline). I did order via Amazon rather than directly, perhaps that adds a little more security to the order.

Hopefully I'll be one of the 89% positive buyers. :fingers-crossed:
