It's hard to keep up...

Yesterday a new release is announced, 1h later a issue is mentioned advising against using the kernel

Then the issue was apparently fixed around 7pm but then then the release mentioned in first post and title doesn't exist on the download sites crackflasher.com

Then a couple of hours later, dtrails confirms sound issues lockup when receiving a call...

Therefore I'm not sure which version is supposed so be "STABLE!" as mention in the topic title ;)

Dtrail, could you please clarify ?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] OliveJeans:
24.06 is very stabel! i tested it with many ROMs (CM, PAC, Carbon; buttered AOKP, Dirty UniCorn)

can confirm working fine

[Motorola Droid RAZR] St33l:
IMO, 0.5x best version. No sound issue, video recording works, stable. Just no 4g, but I'm GSM user )
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Nope..0.5x has critical issues in power management.

The best and very stable version is 24-6 nightly.

This is my battery life so far today on the 24/6 nightly for those wondering about which is the best to use at the moment. I don't experience any lag but I have also adjusted my minfree values and the sound issue isn't present. Thanks [MENTION=4287139]dtrail1[/MENTION] for your hard work hope things are coming along good for the next build keep it up the good work!

Just wondering, does anyone else have the problem where the device freezes when you try to unlock the screen, or is it just me? It happens to me on all the jbx versions regardless of my kernel settings.

I'm also running PAC v5 and am seeing very little lag

I also believe any lag is probably caused by memory issues not the kernel because when I limited backround processes any lag I was experiencing went away

PAC itself gets sometimes laggy in my experience.

I'm still getting reboots every few minutes on 30/6 (CM stable build) when I try to use 1.35ghz with MPU SR on. Then, sometimes when I reboot after a lock-up, my data partition gets corrupted and I have to restore a previous backup. Looks like it's time to try a clean install.

UPDATE: Did a clean install and I'm still getting freezes with the same settings that seem to work just fine for other users. Seems like this kernel just doesn't want to play nicely with my device. I'm gonna try some more gentle settings (300mhz min, 1.2ghz max) and try to let the kernel settle in.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 1droidmod:

New nightly introducing Kernel samepage merging, shared dma buffer and zcache.

These features result in noticeable improved performance and memory handling.

Also tuned the hwmod/uart interface which reduces the power consumption.

The kernel was tested the whole day without any problem so far.

Latest Nightly (7-01) causes sound bug - again. Now I know what is causing it!

However, will see if new 30-6 Nightly I released two hours ago also causes sound bug.

The release is stable and doesn't include this bug.

Edit: Whether Zcache, shared DMA buffer or UKSM - or all of them were cuasing these bugs! Disabled them and rebuilding the Nightly now!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Tsaukpaetra:
This kernel seems fairly awesome. But I'm running into an odd issue with things, it seems mainly between SafeStrap and this kernel (edging toward SafeStrap).

Firstly, is it normal for kernel installation to take (literally) milliseconds? I know it's only copying a few megabytes of information, but usually things at least take a moment to do things...

Thinking it might be a kernel issue, I've tried installing all of the available releases from 6/28 to present, and the latest nightly. If I allow the phone to boot normally, I see the SafeStrap logo (mentioning how to enter the recovery), and about 6 seconds after the vibration (I'm assuming this is the "now booting kernel" signal), the droid reboots. This process continues (repeating the bootloop) for a while until magically the rom loads as if nothing is wrong. Other than that though, some standard issues persist (such as CPU settings not persisting for more than a minute or so).

The sad part is that since ADB hasn't even had a chance to start, I can't grap a logcat or anything at all that can help me figure out what's going wrong.

Any thoughts are welcome, even if they're to the tune of "Go bug the dev of SafeStrap" ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Use the latest RELEASE 06-30 (not nightly). Regarding to your "issues": Read the FAQ for getting answers. ;)

Ok, ok. I will give you some - though I don't like to repeat myself as I already wrote the most answers to your questions - where I spend a lot of time to write a FAQ!

However, ADB isn't included as it is a Android thing, not kernel. See here:

ADB: Since Android 4.2 ADB needs a confirmation. On Kexec kernels it will only work with MASS STORAGE MODE. Go to system settings, storage, press menu button and open USB Settings. Switch to MASS STORAGE MODE (Not MTP). Make sure you have USB debugging enabled. Now, when connected to PC you should see a request on your phones screen where you have to confirm that your PC is allowed to use ADB connection with your phone.

READ the FAQ :) But one small hint: Use Trickster Mod for all kernel related settings ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] arnesottolo:
I believe the only way is PTP, not Mass Storage
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
If you say so... I tried that a thousand times and for it only works with MASS STORAGE. Try it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pepcisko:
Dtrail,

ADB via USB in PTP mode works fine, also with your kernel :) and of course (like you said) in the Mass Storage mode.

The only mode where it doesn't work is the default MTP.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Someone wants to test the latest Nightly (01-07)? I think I could remove the sound/system crash - it was caused by virtual clocks I set. The Nightly should be fine now and after some of you tested it successfully I will release it. It has some nice benefits.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Wombatino:
I'm testing it since this morning

Sent from my Sinclair MK14
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Nope. that's not the right onw. If you look at the upload time you'll see.

However, now tested everything successfully.

Here are some changes:

Added fixed UKSM - Ultimate Kernel Samepage Merging

Added new modified ZCACHE driver

- This results in a better and more stable performance

Modified HWMOD/UART setup for lower power consumption (This reduces the consumption for ~250mV!) - *by Hashcode and by me (2 commits)

Disabled UART HWMOD SIDLE mode to prevent from transition issues

Added and fixed a lot of governors

- OndemandX / - AdaptiveX - Very good solution for power saving! (It turns off 2nd core ONLY when screen is off!) OndemandX has incredibale performance while adaptivex has better power consumption!

Added more Non-Hotplug Governors - Better for Power saving (except OndemandX/- AdaptiveX!) Hotplugging during screen on state causes higher consumption, e.g. turning of/off the 2nd core costs a lot of power! SO it is better to keep the 2nd core on while screen if on and turn it off only during idle mode!

- Smartass2

- Dynamic Interactive

Serial: Omap: Disable serial port IRQ during suspend for better power consumption

- The overall power consumption has been reduced to a range of ~0,1% - 1,1%! Before it was always between 4,5% - 11% static drain! - This is range only counts for idle/sleep mode!

Revert from virtual IVA/DSP clocks - That was causing the system crashes and sound routing failures!

These are only the most important changes. For more details please see the full changelog on github (Available in a few minutes. Link in OP). Now building the release kernel and shoot it to the server! :D

Edit: Done!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Wombatino:
Ok, testing it right now

million thanks... dtrail1 :highfive:

edit: I believe 720p support in this kernel is discontinued. no gallery crash now
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iaminflames:
My phone seems to have issues with these kernels. Every time I try flashing it my phone never boots. I see the safestrap screen then it just sits at a black screen forever. I tried the last 3 nightlies with Carbon ROM with the same results every time. Any ideas?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
You mean it reboots while installation? Well, I guess I know the reason. The updater-script uses busybox to backup the current/prior kernel and its modules. As I know Safestrap doesn't allow custom update-binary, but I didn't know that it doesn't support busybox usage.... Let me ask Hashcode - maybe he can fix that or I have to repack the kernel for SS users...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pepcisko:
Testing the 0.7b (build date Jul 1 14:12:18 CEST 2013) - looks like the default adaptivex governor is stuck at 300 MHz - any initial config necessary?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Para94:
Same here.

And i think that s why the booting process is slow
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seaquel:
Same here on buttered AOKP.

After setting the lowest frequence at 100MHz, the phone go from 100M to 1000M, but never go into deep sleep.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Spectral1991:
I think the initial cpu limit for boot is too low: it takes way too long to load the rom as well as cache apps (after wipe).

Edit: My bad. Flashed the wrong kernel. Dtrail, you really should try to name your kernel files a bit better. It can get a bit confusing sometimes. :/
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
If anyone has problems with his CPU settings (don't stay at it, etc.): Read the FAQ!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
The kernel has reached a great state of power consumption! We could reduce the consumption to a state almost similar to stock kernel (not kexec stock!).

But after some time of settling and maybe some custom settings it will become better than stock!

See yourself how the mA curve hits almost the 0 area during idle mode:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Just for inof: The CPU boots at 300-1200, then it switches to 300-1000.

I was on 0.6c , and today i flashed 0.7b...wow..incredible battery consumption , the release is very stable as 0.6c was , and you also have working 720p video ( i know that i keep saying video video video, but i need them, and now they work so i won't write it anymore for your pleasure)

Simply : WOW

Could you make a version of 0.7b with the 720p recording fix?

It's working for me and for other users too.

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
You can do it your self. Just download an older version and take the media_profiles.xml from the zip and place it on your phone in /system/etc/ (overwrite the old one) . Give it permissions rw,r,r (0644) and reboot.

Has nothing to do with cache. The file is left over from prior kernel.

I did read it, but it didn't seem to help in my specific situation. :P

This is my exact issue, I keep force rebooting it and eventually it boots, but it's hit-or-miss, mainly miss because it literally takes more than ten tries, but when it does boot, it's awesome!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Have you tried to flash the Rom, gapps and kernel without wipes? This is also described in the OP.

It can cause issues when you flash many different versions one by one..

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Tsaukpaetra:
Right! Multiple times in succession in fact. As well as a Fix Permissions, Delete and Recreate the Slot (Using slot 1 of course); format system and data, full wipe....

Unless it's some kind of hardware issue? I'm not using a registered SIM (at least, until I can get this stable ;) ).

Actually, on a hunch I redownloaded all of the flashables onto the external SD card. After reflashing from there, it seems a lot better! Weird thing is that doing a file compare against them results in an "FC: no differences encountered" status.. Whatever, I'm not knocking it, that's for sure!!! :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iaminflames:
It is frustrating. I tried CM10.1 in the past with JBX and now I've tried it with carbon and I can never get the damn thing to boot. Hopefully there'll be a solution one day for people like us with temperamental RAZRs Lol.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
It's not related to solutions in that way. There is no other "solution" to install the kernel.

It's something else. Clean setup? I mean, really absolutely clean? Maybe a bad download?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Tsaukpaetra:
Yeah, I'm thinking of trying out BMM again It was interesting, but I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to use it properly. Since I don't want to replace the stock rom (always good to fall back on something that works, right?) I should be using BMM's slot 3 then, right? Since I've already got SafeStrap installed and all, I would just uninstall safestrap, install BMM, and then select #3 for booting?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Grobie13:
My last experience with savestrap is long ago, but I think you can´t boot slot 3 of safestrap in bmm without any changes.

In bmm you could use slot 2 and create a new partion in settings. Slot 2 is the unused webtop partion of your phone.

you can leave system one untouched if you don´t want to. I have stock motorola system rooted on system one, i´m using only

system 2 for custom roms.

I know dtrail explained in a separate thread how to switch from safestrap to bmm and vice versa.

Greetings from Hamburg
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Tsaukpaetra:
It took a little bit of fiddling, but I actually got BMM to work! I had to flash the kernel in Slot 1 and the current Slot 3 the AOKP is in, and BAM! We had boot! Well, sorta. It worked once. Just once. Now slot 1 won't boot (and somehow acquired its' own label), and Slot 3 is busted too. :(

I could probably up a video or something...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pseudoheld:
so last night i did a little test to see how the consumption is.

with sync and 3g constantly on i lost only about 1% per hour!!! thats pretty great. normally i lose 1,6-2,0%

HOWEVER

this morning i was browsing my rss feed when suddenly my screen went black. the phone seemed like it was still on (hw keys still vibrating. i could turn the screen off and on) but it stayed black. only backlight showed me if it was on or off.

so i rebooted.

after the reboot my system wouldn't load (no status bar) and my battery was back at 84% (after having fallen from 80% to 70% over night...)

another reboot sent me into bootloops.

now i wiped cache and dalvik and hope to get my system back up again.

so yeah the kernel has GREAT battery life but isn't really stable for me.

also you said you would work on the battery sensor and how it ties into the system. the way it is now is really messed up and the battery charge is a rough estimate at best ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mat9v:
The battery is GOOD @ sleep, it's probably as good when awake :)

View attachment 2085305 View attachment 2085306 View attachment 2085307 View attachment 2085308

I left the phone for almost 12 hours without turning on (wifi on, 3g off). From the 10mA power use I could have 1750/10=175 hours of idle time, probably less if I turn off wifi. It is not a fluke if it lasts for 12 hours so the numbers should not lie. Never had that good numbers @ idle with stock kernel/rom :)

So congratulations are in order dtrail !!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Nikorasu:
Using BMM. Some builds are harder to boot, I don't know why. Sometimes it doesn't boot the first time, sometimes it works well, then when reboots, it goes into bootloop.

WhenI flashed one that doesn't boot, I just restore to the previous build. Sometimes restoring doesn't work so I had to reflash pacman rom then gapps, then the kernel that worked.

Recently I realised that after flashing the kernel, and if it resulted in a bootloop, I simply reflash gapps and the phone boots with the new kernel. Maybe it's the fix permissions script in gapps zip that fixed the bootloop, you guys should try..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brainwash123:
I'm catching up with the last two weeks in this thread, so I'm still on 0.5x. It's been pretty stable for me, with the following issues:

- random loss of GPS, solved only by reboot

- hangs followed by reboots when phone gets above 45-50C temperature. Especially when used inside a car as a navigation device

- minor issue but this has been since forever, possibly related to CM: when the phone is starting to get hot the image "jumps" on the screen by a quarter then comes back again within 1/10s. It looks like in the movies when someone is hacking the matrix :)

Bluetooth was most of the time on while this was happening, so it might have something to do with it.

I'm running stock (?) speeds, 1200Mhz maximum, 600Mhz max while screen off, 300 minimum; voltages left untouched. GPU OC at 307, MPU OC at 100. Everything else is as provided with the kernel and buttered AOKP.

I'm reporting issues on such an old kernel because I don't see anything in the changelog that might change these. I'm starting to think my phone has a hardware/overheating problem.
