Overclock kernel

I have managed to port memory script INT2EXTV2+ and now all is great with apps. Another thing is what i'm interesting is Overclock kernel, is there any kind of Overclock kernel for RC3? I have tried awsome cody kernel but it doesn't work..

battery drain too much in rc3 :rolleyes: i guess new kernel causes battery drain, but rom works great.:)

can you fix battery issue?:victory:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] galaxyfreak:
Guys, I repeat this for last time. I cannot do anything till you show me a proof of what is draining battery.

I don't know how or what. When you have your statements turned into facts, tell me.

Just screenshot of battery from settings won't help.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] galaxyfreak:
Here is an attempt to fix battery drain on RC3!

Just flash over RC3.

And please before trying take some notes to avoid placebo efect (thinking it got better just because you want it to be)

Q: [MENTION=4635923]galaxyfreak[/MENTION] what exactly did you change at kernel level with this "fix" ? would like to know so can apply on non aw3som3 kernel to test
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] galaxyfreak:
Reverted 21th August msm_fb changes. Doubt it is causing a drain, but still want to be sure.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Schematic:
Unnistalling the calendar or using that batterydrainfix, fix the battery drain? If it doesnt stay at 100% for atleast 8h like in the RC2, then its not fixed.

Next time please provide also a non aw3som3 rom, and compare the number of downloads. :silly: There already too many roms with aw3som3.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] theBstep:
the complaints about battery drains might because of your battery, hardware related and not software

just saying because for what I've seen on other rom threads (even non-aw3som3 roms) they complain about battery draining issue

you might be using this phone and battery for a long time (like mine 2 years already) that you guys think it's because of the rom

try greenify with donation package if it will help

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] galaxyfreak:
You cannot calculate it like that.

It would require slimming down then people will complain where's this, where's that.

I already went through that.

That's because we want you to do aw3som3 install only once.

[MENTION=4635923]galaxyfreak[/MENTION] latest version of aw3som3 recovery doesn't work with rc3. Get continuous bootloop. Problem with recovery or rom compatibility?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] galaxyfreak:

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] reshampanth:

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] :
there are basic structural difference between older aw3som3 and latest ver. as said by thewisenerd he rewritten the partions in latest versions. details are in his dev forum. so i think it is actually compatibility issue.

[MENTION=4635923]galaxyfreak[/MENTION] just as reference I used compiled a kernel from sachins sources on the 25th August and used it with RC2, took that same boot.img and modules and replaced like for like with RC3 (non aw3som3 rom I modified) and still battery drains with no use other than being on so must be something in the rom other than the kernel. You may already know this but I thought I`d share the info.

It works if you are not on Windows 8 or 8.1.

If you are, just take a stock boot.img from RC3 zip and in terminal emulator type flash_image boot boot.img.(if i remember good) and reboot.

Betterbatterystats doenst help in anything. Its better to use rom toolbox pro and unnistall some system apps.

galaxyfreak should have fixed the camera and browser only on the rc2, but instead it fixed bunch of other stuff that didnt need fix and created other issues.

And what it made it even worst was the useless aw3som3 recovery support without giving an alternative non aw3som3.

Most users that have rooted this phone, still have the yannou recovery, they will only need to flash the twrp to create 1gb ext4, 0 swap partition, and then going back to yannou. Because booting the phone to recovery when turned off while charging is not a normal behavior. Thus the high chance of getting nand recovery burned with twrp.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] thewisenerd:

If you go read others theads, you'll see many users complaining on how to flash a recovery.

And even I have once burned recovery partition while using twrp, also if I have some issue with the rom or sdcard, I need to flash the yannou or other cwm recovery so the computer can recognize the storage.

Well but that only happens with the latest 2.8.0.0.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] mirhl:
Holy cow... You can't burn nand if it's not even mounted by default !! ://

Then, you should realize that we reached the point where even removing useless app... I couldn't still get to install slimmed gapps without running out of space.

This was before awesom3

Am I happy for this? No, since I have a damn slow class ½ sdcard, and I would have really loved if a transparent-compression capable file system had got its way in, so that at least I could sync my contacts with google and make some calls (and pretty much nothing else) without slowdowns due to crappy I/O

Still,

developers

needs come first. Then, light years ahead there are ours
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Schematic:
"The OP doesn't really know whether the wakelock that's being held; is caused by either the kernel, or the ROM, or because of G-Apps, or because of some other app that the user installed."

- No gapps for me , or and other apps installed, it just drains, it just look like mount everest

"You'd need to be sure of what you are un-installing."

- Calendar cuz it requires google account to add an event bah, CM account, CM Home WhiperPush, what hell is that? useless, VoicePlus, also dont know what is it useless, Apollo and DSP if I want to install poweramp or something similiar. All those sync for the contacts and calendar. I think they are safe to unnistall

"even if I slimmer the ROMs, people will complain "where's this, where's that""

- I hate the sense roms cuz they include old version of gapps, old version of greenify, cpu no-frills, fallout tweeks

"But then, that isn't real "development""

- Releasing an RC2.1 with those 2 thinks fixed would be develepment for me, it took too much time to be released. Most important is fix the bugs

"could be the 'primary' fix for the robotic voice call bug."

- What is robotic voice call? Probably ive never used that

"This was intentionally made (for this device), to provide full functionality (of the ROM) for the users, considering they had (mostly) been using memory increasing scripts by default, and had an sd-ext partition (in general)."

- I want to see a comparison chart, some benchmark.

"you do need an updated recovery for the update-binaries of later ROMs, so, most probably your ROM won't be flashed on older recoveries"

- RC2 works fine in yannou recovery.

"The same is the case with Sense ROMs too. When you turn them off, they aren't really turned off. How do you think Sense ROMs boot up so fast, that only the bootanimation, sound is played once, and the phone boots?"

- If I turn off fast boot. . .

"how else do you think the alarms ring?"

- Nope that doesnt work here either

"its the users who need to change their mindsets on what's difficult and what's not."

- The problem is developers only say flash this .img, but they dont explain how and dont prvide the adb and fastboot drivers with a .bat file for easy noob flashing.

"that's an error with the operating system/drivers that you are using. twrp 2.8.0.0"

- Probably. Also in the 2.7.0.0, it takes alot of time to show up the storage in windows, but it shows up

"Also, I don't think someone flashes an older recovery to simply connect their phones to their PCs"

- If anyone else have also the same issue as me, thats the only way
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] galaxyfreak:
A) Did you just confess you are a noob? Then you have nothing to do here.

B) When entering development forum, it's expected from you to have some basic knowlegde.

C) There are very noob friendly guides on XDA about that. I'm not gonna write a full guide on ADB in the middle of build release post

And no, I will not save you 10 seconds of searching by providing a link to guide.

"B) And I though all this threads were for everybody, otherwize, they should not be accessible to the the public. I was not even registered to the forum when I rooted, and started flashing roms. That was my biggest mistake."

What you said makes perfect sense after pages of spam. All future releases will be request-only, and possibly restricted. And, as they can be called beta testing versions, I will have all the right to restrict who has access to them. When people will look for someone to blame, I'm glad that won't be me.

"C) Nah, that too damm boring, I prefer living dangerously and brick the phone, then make some bend test or proper drop test :cowboy:

No need, I know where they are, thery are easy to find If I want read them over and over and over"

Really? Do you think the developer would be as stupid as to release something that bricks your phone? No. It rather simply means that the instructions weren't followed. And if you fear bricking your phone with a simple flash, guess what we must go through to meddle with the very low level working of the phone, which might hard brick our phone forever.

P. s. If you think the developers attitudes towards noobs or someone else will look up to you for all your random noobish ranting that they haven't been able to say for so long, guess what? You are mistaken. In the least I won't, and I'm sure someone else would either.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] RK:
I wonder how much is it that you pay galaxyfreak a month to spend countless hours making these ROMs for you..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Jituv1996:
Take it easy ! :D
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] galaxyfreak:
[MENTION=1830404]shematic[/MENTION] Let's break it down.

Options for making the ROM fit to our phone.

A) Remove "useless" apps.

Why it's not good:

1) Because apps you consider useless, may not be considered useless for others)

2) It's not enough. Full CM ZIP package by 28.9. sources was 247MB, And we need to fit it in 124MB.

Stripping additional apps became not enough.

B) Put part of system apps to /data

Why it's not good:

1) Factory reset will make your phone boom!

2) Some apps "know" they should be in system, thus can't run properly.

C) Edit partition table aka aw3some

Why it's not good:

1) Because users say it's installation is hard.

As you can see, using aw3some is now a mathematically proven best option for most of guys here.

In a post before you said developers just say "flash this" instead of saying "how".

On aw3some thread, instructions for moving from normal ROM to aw3some are clearly written.

Knowing basic fastboot and adb operation are considered a prerequirements, cosidering you had to root and flash a recovery with THAT same ADB and Fastboot tools.

In case that by "how" you mean't you wanna know how aw3some works, I'll be glad to explain it's on first look non-sense installation:

On most of devices that use similar technique to bypass low memory issue, editing parition table is implemented and running on bootloader level. Thus, bootloader passes edited partition table to both ROM and recovery and everybody's happy.

As HTC have additional security layer called "HBOOT", we cannot modify bootloader unless it's signed with HTC enginner digital key.

On a side note, in Pico General section you can see some of guys here worked hard, but still didn't succeed to archieve S-OFF on this device.

Taking that into a consideration, we need to load modified partition table at a bit later stage, to each ROM and recovery particularly.

Also, this process is not easy to automate because instead of partition table being passed by somebody else at runtime, each ROM and recovery, have the partition table hardcoded in itself. You cannot modify a running program. that's like cutting a branch you are sitting on.

Why you have to wipe?

Because data is all around the partition, you cannot just cut /data from 160 to 120 like it happens when you flash aw3some, piece of data will be corrupted, thus, cause a bootloop.

I hope this clears up your doubts regarding partition resizing and low memory solutions in general. All further arguments will be reported to moderator.
