Great!

This kernel is great! Very smooth.

I use smartmax + row and got an antutu of 17082. This kernel + ViperX 4.0.2 + Turbo boost is all that is needed.

As far as battery is concerned, I can not judge much since I'm always on wifi and have a fairly decent usage. With all that I think it's great because it's difficult to improve the HOX battery too much if you're using Sense 5.

Thanks Alex.

The battery live is REALLY GOOD! Today I hit 4:45 hours screen on and that with 50% of the time on medium brightness+1.5GHz/520MHz GPU/interactive/deadline/3g/wifi on all the time/ no power saver+two hours watching twitch stream+a lot of facebook app(battery drainer as we all know)+viber chat with vibration ON as main things. Not bad, not bad at all. Now I got little more charge still. :)

TBH I can't see even one thing that is wrong with the kernel right now! Will continue to elevate during the week, but for me you can take well deserved break as right now we got everything important. Cheers!
[HTC One X] holmes_mt:
Does any one have broblem with sound in 2.6 RC

When I play a sound that I recorded before, the sound is played with a rate higher than norman. I can't hear any more. So I rollback to 2.5, it's ok.
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
Really thx for good feedback and using this kernel :)
[HTC One X] John_wba:
I dont want terga 4 drivers and mdecision CPU, neither one of those things match the hardware on our HOX, mdecision is for Qualcomm and terga 4 drivers cause colour banding issues on our screens. Can I ask the people which version they recommend that uses terga3 and CPU quiet, with the best battery life. Thanks.
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
No sound changes from 2.5 to 2.6..also it's ok for me..and i hear much music..that's why i have a beats phone :)

Any sound mods installed..?

[MENTION=1171895]Alex-V[/MENTION] what is better for a better battery, sio, row or vr?

thanks for the amazing kernel!
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
Are you kidding us? ...mpdecision is even better then cpuquiet...this kernel is now the best which I ever had on my hox...neither xm kernel or so are as good as this here because of battery and speed....

Again [MENTION=1171895]Alex-V[/MENTION] thank you really much for this kernel now I enjoy my hox again and don't want to change it :))

[HTC One X] John_wba:
You didn't answer my question In any way, furthermore I am in entitled to my opinion and I'm entitled to run which ever version I prefer. CPU quiet and terga 3 are what is meant for our HOX. Therefore I am asking for the best stable version with my preferences.
[HTC One X] windylawyer.1712:
2.5 is the best choice for u CPU Quite and terga 3 driver
[HTC One X] treebill:
Agree with this but intellidemand will be nice if you read the link I posted a few pages back should be much better than mbdecision.
[HTC One X] John_wba:
Thanks mate, terga 4 causes screen banding issues on my screen you see. On terga 3 everything is fine :)
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
Yep I know but even without it it's now soo great :)

[HTC One X] Alex-V:
@ john ..i was in the same thinking as you..really..that's why i made the last kernels with cpuquiet...and Tegra 3...but mpDec..give the same speed with more battery and it's a bit cooler...and you know as this is still sense 4 source..with the patched panel from trip ...which cause camera problem with Tegra 3 driver...so you see we have actual not much we can do... :)

Btw the mpDec is patched to work from Dennis r + patched and tweaked from xmister and others...so it's not really the one qualcomm uses

Also intellidemand is made for qualcomm..but who knows maybe it can also work good
[HTC One X] treebill:
[MENTION=1171895]Alex-V[/MENTION] does your kernel support 32 bit audio?
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
Should be Row :)
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
Answered :)

problems with camera :P

Have read it :cool:
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
Yes should be in..
[HTC One X] psycho_somatic:
anyone else having an issue with BLN? they just come on randomly for no reason ... any work around for this?
[HTC One X] Damir78:
Alex, could you tell me will you work on improving screen image qualitiy, because difference between stock kernel and your's is HUGE!

It is so obvious, and no it's not minor problem. Maybe you need to go back to Tegra 3 drivers and take out max from them!

Everything elsein yourt kernel is close to perfection, but image quality of screen (brightness/gamma) is very poor. Hope you will fix it. Thnx.
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
Not here..if i go to b darker place it goes on if i go to a brighter place it goes off..

Btw on some phones it can be if you have usb plugged and start the phone
[HTC One X] John_wba:
Thanks fr the reply mate, I am fine with broken vid recording, it's a small price to pay to get rid of colour banding. Keep up the good work anyway... It can't be easy seeing as there is no source :good::good:
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
Can not go to Tegra 3 atm as this cause camera problems..read changelog of 2.5 rc2 ..it's caused by the old sense 4 source with patched panel from trip so it works on sense 5..
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
If source is out i will update those drivers :)

Till than use 2.5

btw...i really have no problems with strange colour things...will not say there are none..as you are not alone with this...but i have nothing to report..lol
[HTC One X] Damir78:
Right now I've tried your older 2.5 driver with Tegra 3, and there's also problem with screen brightness. Well, what causing it if it isn't tegra driver? Could you please inspect what causing low brightness problem?

I think it's something conected with power managment, maybe?
[HTC One X] igie:
I have since yesterday. What ROM are you on?
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
i´m on viper

what you make in that time..?
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
2.5 is nearly the same as 1.6 and on 1.6 i had played with this..and its wanted todo so..as it was always to bright in dark conditions...did you ever had a aosp rom on the phone...its much more darker...they even made most ui things dark to gain more battery...

in 2.6 i use a custom lightsensor driver (with similar values) to fix button backlight goes only off in bright sun

ps: but i will look if things change if source is out :) ok

just checked @ http://www.htcdev.com/ ...but still no news
[HTC One X] Damir78:
Yes, I've noticed too but I prefer brighter screen, and HOX has one of the best screens outthere so it's pitty to ruin it like that..

And when I want lower bright, I put it in low...

(or battery saver do it for me)

Is there some option/script to remove that dim?, because your kernel is worth fighting for :))))

Thnx inadvance
[HTC One X] psycho_somatic:
I mean when the phone is sitting idle (display off), the lights just come on, kinda annoying because I think I've got an email or something...

oh I'm using the latest skydragon rom...
[HTC One X] JoHnNy08PL:
Power Saving mode can get screen a bit darker, I'm using it sometimes just for this "feature"

I'm getting a kernel wakelock problem - it's called wl1271_wake and in nearly 11h, device was waken 19644 times for about 3 hours.

WL1271 is a WiFi/BT module, and this wakelock is only active when WiFi is connected.
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
i dont believe that i can much do...as if i patches in lightsensor values...can break button backlight things again...but i will have a look..maybe in next week....btw...why not use other rom values for brightness...means in viper rom you can change directly the values for each level...(still in automatic) for other roms...i think it was patching a framework file...
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
wow...never saw that...on idle if no notification....mmhhh...not sure what it can be...maybe facebook have now a notification count...? really have no idea...as if i had it i had tried to fix....maybe look in logcat can help
[HTC One X] psycho_somatic:
nah don't use facebook, or twitter or any social media ****e ha :P i've removed all those apps, was thinking though could it be blinkfeed?, also it doesn't actually come on when I do have a notification. I'm downloading a different rom now too to see if it makes any difference...
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
just looked with wakelock detector...not have it...

this thread says restart router

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2262419

other thread says...it scans for network

btw...not all wakelocks are bad locks... :)
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
maybe...i dont use blinkfeed :) yeah..just try....btw sd is not a bad rom :)
[HTC One X] JoHnNy08PL:
Hmm, it isn't scanning because it can connect to 3 WiFi password protected networks with pretty strong signals.

And best thing - I went with my dog, so I turned off WiFi and turned on Mobile data. Besides that I can't connect to mobile data(H icon not showing, don't know why) I turned it off and turned wifi back. And this wl1271 wakelock just... disapeared. No idea what the hell happened - it was on top of Kernel Wakelock's list. So I hope it's gone forever haha.

After reboot mobile data work.

And it was bad wakelock - with wifi disabled I got 9 hours deepsleep with 0% battery usage and with enabled it was around 20-25%.
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
So i hope it's ok now
[HTC One X] JoHnNy08PL:
Ehh, and it's there again.

Maybe i'll connect to other wifi network, maybe it is some problem with one router...
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
Ok..looked again on mine and see it now also..but mine say 4 s..so it's ok for me..here the best answer to that w lock..btw it's a massive problem on many phones

[HTC One X] asp2010:
Hi, Alex!

I've tried your 2.6 RC kernel and I'm still getting the lag I was getting with the 2.5 RC's. Since no one else seems to be getting this, I'm thinking it could either be a ROM issue, or a problem with my phone. I'll try switching ROM's when I get the time, so what are you guys using?

Thanks!
[HTC One X] Damir78:
I'm not familiar with Viper ROM (I recently bought this One x, till then I was with Sony for years), so if you could tell explain where to look for changing values?
[HTC One X] Qevinator:
Why don't you just manually adjust the framework-res.apk? This file holds the values that tells the phone how bright the screen has got to be when the sensor reads a certain lux-level.
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
Venom tweaks in second or third last page....there you can find it...I thin it's there if not search through the pages :p

[HTC One X] mushages:
In latest test kernel DT2W isn't there in venom tweaks?
[HTC One X] Damir78:
That doesn't change anything, I've tried - because screen is dark in any case (auto off/on) with alex kernel (without is brilliant!), no matter what value I put into auto (in venom tweak). Clearly this is graphic driver problem, possible in conjuction with power mode. Alex is playing with values there, so maybe he messed up something (or copied something from other source)....
[HTC One X] high_voltage:
Don't forget there are 3 screen vendors+every phone is little bit different(after all different parts in it). Tegra 4 driver have different color balance/temperature and thus you can be fooled to think that something is wrong. Or maybe your phone doesn't like t4 driver. I know for a few more with different problems with it. You can't do anything about it except to flash the stock kernel and wait for the 4.2 kernel source code. Stock is not that bad at all so not biggy for you if there is major problem with this kernel. Cheers.
[HTC One X] Damir78:
Yes, I have to wait for 4.2 source, but neither Tegra 3 isn't working for me in this kernel (I tried his older releases, from 0.8 too) - always brightness level is low, even auto is off and slider on max. There isn't problem with colours, it's just brightness/gamma and IT IS RELATED TO AUTOBRIGHTNESS SENSORS, which are working parallel with sensor backlight keys. Without Alex kernel the screen of both HOX (one is mine) is fantastic. I bet that the problem is in power management and framework, he tweaked some values, or just copied some values from other (SoC) scrpit.
[HTC One X] holmes_mt:
Oh! I try to re-install 2.6 and it has no problem about sounds. I don't know why :D may be some app require a reboot

Thanks you!
[HTC One X] high_voltage:
I hope you DO understand that the lightning sensor matters only when you use autobrightness on! When you adjust manually your brightness that sensor doesn't have any role! Your problem is somewhere else. And why only you complain about the brightness if it's like that on any HOX? Because it isn't...
[HTC One X] zhengxiong:
If you do not connect the data cable or power cord to restart the phone OTG certainly can not be used.

Need to reconnect the power cable and then use the OTG can.

Stock Kernel Not have this problem
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
Can be from old source...btw from patching to have mass storage back....i dont have an otg cable so i can not test.....otherwise...is it so bad to just replug ;)
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
still feel fine with the kernel...but will have a look if i can adjust this brightness thingy...

anyway...for me all works ok...it dim if i go to a darker rom (and button backlight goes on) and if i go to a brighter place...display goes brighter (and button backlight goes off) ...also the viper backlight value changer in tweaks works for me :)

with kind regards
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
Yep for me all works fine and I can test otg later too ;)

did you try to set 2d over gpl in dev settings

and disable 3d gpu in trickster

test kernel have only old s2w (so no dt2w ) :)
[HTC One X] teteu86:
What are the consequences of doing these two settings?

miui v5 is ok with this kernel and battery seems very well! thanks alex!

there is also an compile problem,should i add BUILD_FOR_SENSE in config? I have add it but wifi can't open
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
build for sense is for auto-bln working on sense roms....

the wifi modules must be compiled extra.....as i´m at work i dont have my laptop here..so please download any original htc one x kernel source from htcdev.com ...in the zip is a text file..open it and read how to compile those modules...(this part we dont must do on older phones...but with one x a must)

[HTC One X] kfasheldon:
Help

Any ideas , WiFi shows error on 2.6 , it was ok last night , I have tried 2.5 and all tests released just shows error now. But stock kernal works ..

Venom 4.02 and KL LIGHTER , changed nothing so don't get it.

Re installed viper with cache and falcon clean still same issue , totally confused ?

Anyone ?
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
its a known problem since sense 4 even stock kernel have this on some phones...

flash a s2w version and

enable / disable - calibration control and pocket protection

flash modules...

btw flash kernels that way:

1. copy zip to sd

2. flash with fastboot ( fastboot flash boot boot.img )

3. erase cache (fastboot erase cache)

3. flash the modules from recovery

4. reboot

thats all :)
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
flashed with kernel lighter too so it's not an issue from the app etc...maybe he clicked on the wrong flash method....

and really GREAT battery life...REALLY fast kernel now ...gaming is really good...overall ui performance is great.. [MENTION=1171895]Alex-V[/MENTION] what have you done? :D your kernel made our phone as fast as s600 phones haha :D
[HTC One X] Damir78:
Admit that you did not read what we wrote about it - Alex himself says that set these values​​, and it has no connection with my screen (test this kernel on 2 HOXs which are in perfect state). Also I'm not talking about autobrightness than the values ​​of autobrightness who may appoint and AUTO OFF mode. But maybe it was a fluke and just a problem with my 2 phones? LOL

Or there is a problem with your reading and understanding?
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
cool down guys...

anyway..i say i will have a look..on the otherside...if its so bad for you that you can not or want not use the phone..just flash any other kernel :) not bad meant...
[HTC One X] Damir78:
Alex, you are doing very well, and your kernel isn't bad (especially since doing without official code), only what I want is better brightness level. And I cannot flash any other kernel because I like Viper 4.0.2 (and Sense 5). Your kernel is THE ONLY ONE for Sense 5.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
There are some apps in market to set other values for brightness...just try out...this kernel has good brightness...max brightness is even too bright :D

[HTC One X] lord5619:
Hi there!

I have problem with camera...after flashing this kernel (2,4RC; 2,5RC or 2,6RC), when i try to open camera app, it says "can´t connect to camera" and app closes itself. And it is happening in all 3rd party camera apps. But after i flash stock kernel, it works fine...I´m Using ViperX 4.0.2. and kernel flashing through OneClick utility.

Any advice?
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
lol...never seen...i´m using viper myself...how you flashed the kernel..try to clean caches n app stats from camera....reflash rom...did you flashed the modules..?
[HTC One X] Damir78:
Alex, do you have another smartphone with good display?

Put it right beside your Htc One x (with Viper and your kernel and brightness to max), with Google play opened on start/home page on both cells (reference for colors). Look.

Then flash JUST Viper alone on HOX and put brightness to the max. Now look at both phones and you will see the difference...
[HTC One X] TAGTRAUM:
I can confirm, that OTG fully working :) ... But screen gamma/temperature diffence here too, on stock Viper (Stock HTC) Sense 5 Kernel there are bombastic colors :cyclops:
[HTC One X] lord5619:
of course i did :) first flash kernel, than full wipe, flash rom, flash modules, occasionally clean app stats...but always the same :/ but sometimes i have this even with stock kernel, but i just start camera couple of times and it starts up. But other things are very useful, like OTG, MassStorage, OC...super!
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
as i said..will look.... and compare the things with stock sense 4 source :)

maybe hardware prob..?
[HTC One X] lord5619:
maybe hardware prob..?[/QUOTE]

it is of course possible, but with your kernel, its like permanent.... ill try another ROM :)
[HTC One X] espressofrap:
I don't know what I'm doing wrong. All versions of Alex's kernel that I use on Viper Sense5 ROM causes the phone to become laggy. I've seen a lot of people saying that it is very smooth but not in my case. Is there anything I need to tweak or something? I know I'm missing something here.

Btw. I did it using clean ROM install and using this kernel. Of course i erase cache push boot.img via fastboot then erase cache again. And in viper installer select the option that im using a custom kernel. And also, im not touching anything in the kernel using tricksrer mod. But its very laggy.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[HTC One X] lukes91:
try to install ViperX with default kernel and after flash alex's one...
[HTC One X] espressofrap:
Thanks. I forgot to state I've tried that also, just before trying the full wipe approach. To no avail... Thanks.
[HTC One X] snebojsa:
I have very big lag too, on Viper 4.0.2 on stock and Alex kernel, no matter. Tried to reflash rom couple of times, redownload (md5sum are ok), but the lag is always there, tried to clean install, wipe everything from recovery and aroma, not install anything after, let the rom to settle, restart again, tried to wipe cache and dalvik, but the lag is always there. Flash the other rom, and the lag is gone, clean install Viper again, lag is back...
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
in what situations..let the rom settle about 10 min....enable in dev settings 2d over gpu and in trickster disable 3d gpu

btw..in settings the viper rom lags a bit and its known
[HTC One X] snebojsa:
Especially in Settings, but also lag is there when scrolling in every app, like when read news and scroll, the lag is noticeable, when scrolling apps in app drawer, etc. I have only 12000 in Antutu, before i had 15000-16000-17000. When install other rom, everything back to normal, I will try what you suggest Alex, thanks.
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
so a other rom with still my kernel is ok..? Would be strange..mmhh..i still get my 16000-17000 score

and no apps installed...because i would say than try without installing apps..sometimes some cpu apps can conflict
[HTC One X] snebojsa:
I didn't try your kernel in other roms, but no lag with stock kernel, i didn't experiment more, just want to see if there is lag or not.

So, other rom, stock kernel, no lag, Antutu 16800

ViperX, stock kernel or Alex kernel, very laggy, Antutu 12300.
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
i have absolut no idea what it can be...if its also with stock kernel on the same rom...look to logcat...or look what freqs are used...looks like the kernel power down..maybe because of heat..? or something or a power saver
[HTC One X] snebojsa:
Where to look for freqs? Phone is very cold...
[HTC One X] espressofrap:
My case is a bit different, though. On stock viper kernel, although not buttery smooth, it is still ok.

Anyway, i will try to clean wipe and reinstall rom with Alex's kernel and try his suggestions. Thanks again guys. :)

[HTC One X] high_voltage:
Dude, relax a little bit. We all understand what is your problem, but none of us can replicate it or help you. Btw, did you check if smart dimmer is off in trickster? As it can dim the screen too much+you can try in viper tweaks to turn on sony bravia engine 2. When I set brightness to max it's painful to watch the screen at evening/night and I use pure viperx 4.0.2 and Alex's 2.6_rc. I am not saying you don't have a problem, I am just saying that my screen max brightness is the same as in stock kernel and the previous Alex versions. Hope he can sort it out for you tho. Cheers.
[HTC One X] Damir78:
Everything ok, but I'm not the only one who noticed that problem, and hope that new modded original 4.2. kernel will fix that.

Someone said - maybe problem is with different vendors who produce displays for Htc, so some aren't affected - who knows...
