v1.0 is here: http://d-h.st/oSP

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

-easy app for setting the number of cores

-now allows setting of fast-charge toggle

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!) and app

This release adds fast-charge to the kernel and an easy toggle to the Core Manager app. Fast charge is off by default. If you turn it on, it will stay on until you turn it off, or reboot. We've numerically reached version 1.0! I was tempted to go to 0.10, but thought it might be confusing. Never-the-less, the kernel is in a state that I'm very happy with, so hitting the full 1.0 milestone is perhaps quite fitting :D
[HTC One X+] sffmandrake:
In one world, WAHOU, work great in games and my battery, thank you. :highfive:

Thx ... :D
[HTC One X+] DannyAb:
Hey bedalus, you should try Kernel Development for our HTC One as well! Great work here...
[HTC One X+] xchan21:
thanks all the time..
[HTC One X+] snakebiteex:
NO! you shall not have our Bedalus! shoo go away ;)
[HTC One X+] DannyAb:
He can still develop for both our phones ;)
[HTC One X+] :
How many people are on the recent power saving version? Is it working just as well as the latest general release?
[HTC One X+] dan_alexandre:
Am on the powersaver since today morning, games run fine, UI seems as smooth as usual. Even have powersaver enabled, do have GPU coupling off tho.. so that is probably helping with the smoothness.
[HTC One X+] :
Can you compare it with the coupling enabled?
[HTC One X+] dan_alexandre:
Can do, i'll later edit this post with what i find.

EDIT: Under load (3D Mark, asphalt 7) GPU coupling off does give like 100 to 200 extra points on 3D Mark.. it's negligible and depends on the game/app as well.

So i'll just move to the UI, on home screens i notice no difference whatsoever... however in the appdrawer there's a little loss that i don't think i would notice if i wasn't looking for it..

It might even be placebo effect as i don't verify it consistently.. so even if i'm right and there is a difference it's not worth worrying about.. it's still pretty smooth.

If I was monitoring properly under ideal circumstances(no other apps installed, no data, etc..) and with FPS average logs, i doubt the results would differ much.
[HTC One X+] Wnsly:
It's working fine and smooth. I noticed that the battery lasts longer with the same usage and my phone doesn't heat up so much like before.

I didn't listened to music today but I actually haven't had any lag issues with the lastest versions. So I can't report about that.
[HTC One X+] nukeman239:
How does Coupling OFF affect battery life?
[HTC One X+] dan_alexandre:
I'd need quite some time to test that, however.. using logic here.. gpu coupling off will probably mean less battery life as the gpu won't be scaling down with the cpu as it would normally. I might be wrong tho, my understanding of ARM architecture and android in general is rather weak.
[HTC One X+] nukeman239:
Alright. One last thing, Coupling OFF is virtually a Gaming Mode. Isn't it? I think someone was talking about a gaming mode a few pages back.
[HTC One X+] reaper90:
AFAIK on this kernel, GPU runs in performance mode (highest frequency) when decoupled, so this may help in games and overall smoothness but most likely it will drain more battery!

I'm going to attempt to switch to fedora today, which means I may never build again! At any rate, I'm on holiday now. As of Wednesday, I'll be gone for about two weeks. My 'wife' (we're not technically married) may become hostile if I attempt to access the internet, but I might pop in to see what's happening if I can get away with it :p

Edit: first snag overcome. I had done raid flags preventing my sata disks from being seen by the installer, even though this hasn't been a problem with other distros. Adding a boot parameter "nodmraid" solved it. Fedora 19 network iso presents some nice customisation options. I went 'crazy' and plumped for cinnamon desktop
[HTC One X+] nukeman239:
Tried the kernel. I can confirm that turning Coupling OFF certainly helps in gaming. Tried GTA3 and its way smoother than on stock. I still can't call it lag free though. Sad to hear that beadlus may never work on this kernel again.
[HTC One X+] towelboy:
Did I read this correctly :eek: :eek: :eek:
[HTC One X+] :
Uh, yeah, that was a joke. I just meant it may be tricky to get a build environment up in fedora. I just need to move my /home to the old hard drive and mess about with fstab and everything should be fine
[HTC One X+] maxwen:
welcome to fedora :)

I don't use anything else since many years
[HTC One X+] :
I used it when I had an Eee pc, and loved it. The battery life was insane! It's nice to be back. I've got some re-learning to do...

EDIT: Was on fedora all day yesterday, cinnamon wouldn't play nice over vnc, so I'm using xfce now. I found some good tips:

ethtool -s enp0s7 wol g
runuser -l dave -c "vncserver -geometry 1024x768 :1"
touch /home/dave/initd.txt

I'm so happy to be using fedora again! Plus the tiger-vncserver seems to be much more snappy than tightvnc on ubuntu. Now... all I need to do is recover my old /home partition which is on a separate drive, and I should be ready to go!

hey bedalus,

i noticed since version 3.6 for some reason when there's is high network load sometimes my phone loses connection with the cellular tower.. even happens during calls at which point i am disconnected and forced to wait untill it will reconnect , it doesn't happen in 3.5 (been testing the last few days)

do you know what might cause this?
[HTC One X+] :
It'll have to wait until I get back from holiday to check this, but thanks
[HTC One X+] Vixa:
im not using this kernel at the moment but i have the same dc for 2-3 sec sometimes on t-mobile network mb it's not a kernel issue...
[HTC One X+] snakebiteex:
does it tell you "sim card is not available*?
[HTC One X+] Vixa:
I think no or i didn't noticed :|
[HTC One X+] lulonen:
Are all versions of this kernel making the phone so hot? From one side everything works great but this temps are unnacteptable on my Viper Rom ;-(
[HTC One X+] flipside101:
No heat problems here on arhd , well unless im gaming but that's the tegra for you
[HTC One X+] :
I think there may just be some compatibility issues between my kernel and that Rom. If the supplied kernel is working well, stock with it
[HTC One X+] JaffaTB:
mine gets hot too running viper, and also with 3.6 sometimes after waking up i have lost connection (data/wifi/network) not every time though
[HTC One X+] lulonen:
Can't because I love experiments ;)
[HTC One X+] :
here's another experiment: http://d-h.st/GfI

This is v2 of the previous powersave version I released before I went on my holiday.

I believe this is working better now. I'd be very happy to have some testers for this one please!
[HTC One X+] reaper90:
First impressions:

Still very fast and smooth on sense launcher, also my few games run very well! Will do further testing tomorrow.
[HTC One X+] xchan21:
Thank you so much for keeping us updated. The new kernel version works well and so smooth! truly appreciated your hardwork

[HTC One X+] flipside101:
Is anyone having signal drop issues with the new test kernel. I have had a few but since swapping but don't know if it's just Vodafone 'adjusting' its network
[HTC One X+] :
You could try going back to the previous version and see if the issues are resolved?
[HTC One X+] snakebiteex:
i've been testing with this network connection issues... they stop at the regular 3.6.. without energy saving or high power core active.. it started from the first test kernel of 3.6
[HTC One X+] donky kong 017:
i had the same issue once with viper rom, but another kernel. i tried everything. nothing helped. i also saw some lag when installing apps or in certain situations when listening to music or using chrome. i reflashed kernel. wiped cache/delvik. nothing helped til i just installed everything from scratch without any backups. i tried to get behind that problem, but i dont have that much knowledge of the more complicated things. i used system monitor to get a little overview of what my phone was doing when it got hot. i saw increased r/w on the memory.

but how i said in the end nothing helped. i installed the same version of the rom and kernel from scratch with wiping everything i could find and then it magically worked.
[HTC One X+] flipside101:
I am but that doesn't really prove anything if its my carrier being an arse as that's likely to be more a short term issue.

i have viper rom with ellite kernel, can i just flash this kernel without reinstalling the rom

Sorry guys for simple question :)
[HTC One X+] :
Yes, but you may want to see if viper provide a backup kernel .img file in case this kernel is dodgy on that Rom. I use ARHD ramdisk, which may cause issues.

Anyone on viper who can help?
[HTC One X+] flipside101:
hmm switched back to test 2 and im having sim not found messages again , let me try test 1

i know you are not home yet and dont have time to check it..

but i noticed the sim disconnects consistently when my phone is at about 40 degrees angle.. maybe theres some connection between the values read from the accelerometer\gyro\whatever to the fact that it is causing those d.cs?

SD card problem

Hai,

I have a problem with copy from internal SD to my PC with big files, the telephone likes to go sleeping and after a couple of minutes it reboots.

Somethimes the Phone reboot also with no reason, after a few days

Test with the v3.6 V2 version
[HTC One X+] :
Can you upload /proc/last_kmsg somewhere for me?
[HTC One X+] :
new test version, with 1.3GHz ideal frequency again, and JRCU again (after the updated .config ideas from the 3.4 kernel I thought it was worth another shot) and some updates from maxwen.

download here: http://d-h.st/NmA

This will be v3.7 if JRCU does not cause a lockup like last time
[HTC One X+] :
No random reboots anyone?
[HTC One X+] flipside101:
Nothing here and i don't seem to be having the sim/call drop out issue either but i will confirm that later as id like to pass through the area that i had the issue last time to make sure all the factors match :)
[HTC One X+] :
I appreciate matching the detail in your comparison. Thanks for your effort!

I can see six downloads of that last test version. Including me, that's seven people testing... It's not as many as usual... Are all the crack flashers playing with v4.2.2 ROMs? (I hope soon there will be some new kernel source to play with :D)
[HTC One X+] aliko007:
I hope that too :fingers-crossed:
[HTC One X+] reaper90:

Version 3.7c Notes

Again, built with the latest linaro 4.7.4 toolchain thanks to [MENTION=4825437]Christopher83[/MENTION]

This version builds on the success of v3.6 with a small heap of minor improvements and fixes (thirteen of them). The 'c' means this version has had two minor updates since I first released it, first adding JRCU, then taking it out again. But in the process I've done a few incremental updates to the SMP code, so despite going around in a circle (again) at least there has been some actual progress too. This will be the last version release for 4.1 ROMs, as I expect 4.2.2 source will be released very soon.

My kernel config

-Slide to Wake [S2W]

-Hotplugging with a user defined limit (using the above app)

-The low power core is prevented when awake, and the high-power quad-core is forbidden when the screen is off. This is to ensure performance when the screen is on, and power-saving when it is off (+ there is a two core minimum when device is awake)

-smartmax governor by maxwen

-added fast-charge to kernel (thanks maxwen)

-added BLX (thanks ezekeel)

-Available IO Schedulers: BFQ, CFQ (as default), Deadline, NOOP, SIO, ROW, and V(R).

-Miscelaneous tweaks: ticket based rwsem algorithm; Google's tcp proportion rate reduction algorithm; cifs; zcache with latest LZO; SLUB; disabled GENTLE_FAIR_SLEEPERS for better UI

I have again been forced to remove JRCU due to instability, but the other little performance tweaks remain. Be sure to grab v3.7b for peace of mind at the above link! :p

I don't think JRCU will ever play nice, which is a real shame as I felt like it made a big difference to the performance. We'll see what the new kernel source has to offer when it finally drops, at which point I'll be upgrading to a 4.2.2 ROM, but until then, I'm sticking with what I know.

I appreciate all your help testing. It certainly is a great help to other users too.

At this point I've tried everything I can think of, so you'll have to go back to 3.7b

I'll have another attempt with the new source when it's available (but the result will probably be the same!)

EDIT: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44650513#post44650513 updated to v3.7c

I'm glad I can help! It's the least someone can do, as you're trying to help users using you're hobby works output.

What I forgot to say. I've had the same freezes in 3.6, but in 3.7 they are gone. Should I refresh the old version and deliver a log?

If you know for sure you can reproduce the freeze, then yes, but don't worry about it if not

[HTC One X+] :
I've been messing around trying to get a kernel to work with sense 5 despite the glaring absence of support from HTCDev. Nothing boots. When I gave up and flashed the stock kernel, the stock kernel module were broken (no signal/no wifi!)

In order to fix this, I've had to create a stock kernel with nik3r's module injector. I doubt anyone else is or will be in the same predicament as me, but I uploaded the kernel to the OP just in case.

EDIT: I'm departing from this device :(

HTCDev attitude is poor, but it looks like the 4.2.2 update solved most of the issues that were bothering me in the first place. If the source is eventually released, I will pop back for an update.

Good luck out there! :)
[HTC One X+] saitch76:
I think I'm settling for your 1.0 kernel for my daily driver :) Almost totally lag free!

Quick query - when I run your CoreManager app it always shows number of cores as n even if I have set the cores a few minutes previously. Is this a bug? Also any plans to introduce zram or would the compression slow down the single core too much?

Thanks for your great work :good:
[HTC One X+] :
Re: [KERNEL] hXORe for sense [INTERNATIONAL]

The app doesn't read the current setting. If you set 2 cores then close the app, 2 cores remains set. If you open the app, it shows n because it hasn't read the current setting... but it doesn't change it from 2 either. It will only change if you set something new. I could fix it by asking it to read the current setting when the app opens, but I'm too lazy right now.

I investigated zcache, and I showed it to nik3r who is using it. I don't intend to though. Nor zram.
