Hi. Because I use this crap phone @ work and have spare time during my shift, I decide to make this phone a little bit more better. So I compiled this kernel. I hope it will be useful to someone.​

I am not take any responsible for bricked phones or any other catastrophe encountered when you try this kernel

​

** What I change: **​

Upstrem kernel to 3.10.49

compiled with linaro's 4.9.4

some optimalization

** Note **

I spend hours try to overclock this device wihout success so I give up, I cant figure out what it wrong with it :)​

Kernel is base on a11ul-3.10.28-g930be6d_vodafone

Kernel works fine on desire 620 as well but you need to extract boot.img take kernel-zimage and replace in stock 620 boot.img

** Added Cpu hotplug

msm-hotplug

alucard (disabled)

bricked (disabled)

thunderplug

intelli-plug

** Added CPUFreq

zzmoove

lionfish

dancedance

lionheart

conservativex

preservative

wave

nightmare

darkness

bioshock

alucard

** Added *I/O scheduler

tripNdroid

sio+

sio

zen

fifo

vr

bfq

fiops​

** Source code **

https://github.com/jas7o/jas7o-a11ul_kernel_3.10.x_tweaked/tree/dev

** HowTo **

It is recomended to rename or delete /system/bin/mpdecision

You can test before you flash it using cmd -> fastboot boot boot.img

Flash boot.img from twrp as image or using fastboot

If wifi not work after flashing boot download pronto_wlan, extract and replace file in /system/lib/modules/pronto

Also you need reflash supersu any version​

I started the update to the new FW just released, but it stopped at 15% (copying update to watch step). The watch sat all night with no change.

I've restarted the watch, and killed the Gear app, but when I restart the app it is immediately shows that 15% point and stays there.

Any ideas appreciated.

According to your Screenshot... and your text...

Maybe not enough space on Gear S3

to tranfer 14 MB + unpack + FOTA routine...

If Handset reboot not help...

Maybe reboot both... handset and Gear S3...

Gear Software seems for me background System Tool... it ever runs with your really start...

If this not help...

3.

If you have rooted handset...

You could try to delete downloaded 14 MB FOTA file and start from downloading...

For me it is easy to connect handset via cable... then I can see where update.zip is stored...

I could look, if you need correct location/folder/path...

Hi,

the google play services has the most percentage of my Akku usage. It's always about 20-30% and the os itself is about 5% on the 2nd place.

So is there a way to reduce the amount of Akku usage?? I couldn't remember that it was that much in the past, so something must happend to it (maybe an auto update??)

Would be great if there is a way to reduce it (i'm on unoffical cm13 android 6.0.1)

The only google things i need are:

Store,

Maps,

device locator,

Mail/calender/contacts

I don't care about the launcher, or voice search or things like that, so if there is a way to remove play services while using store, maps,... it would be fine to me.

I have a BandLuxe R550 (R558C889) that supports LTE Bands 2/4 and I am using AT&T, The only tower that supports band 2 is 4 mi away :P. A tower beside my house just turned on LTE and it's using Bands 12/17 according to cellmapper. They're still in the process of running fiber backhaul to it and every time I go by the tower site there are people there doing something. I have been doing some researching and found out the modem in this thing might support other bands. The modem has a Qualcomm MDM9215 OOV Chipset and a Qualcomm WTR1605L multiband LTE chip according the the internal photos taken by the FCC. Is there any way of enabling the bands? Could I just take the modem out, put it in a mini PCI-E slot, send some AT commands to it and enable the bands that way? Or do I have to do something to the firmware? There is a place to upgrade the module firmware and router firmware which is BusyBox based.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BusterTyTN:
Hello all,

it seems there is more to complain about than this video driver nightmare. I'm adding two issues in separate threads. This one deals with the GPS module and resulting battery drain. I observed it right after installing the first GPS software and searched for help nearly everywhere, and I found some more hints pointing at short battery uptimes after GPS was used. Here's how it works:

- access the GPS port (GPS software, "OziExplorer" or the like)

- stop the access

- end all software tasks

- put device into standby

- Due to an additional current draw of approx. 50mA the battery will be empty within a day --- in standby. The GPS unit does _NOT_ return into a low power state, no matter how much time passed.

- Only a complete power-off or pressing the soft reset button ends this condition.

Installing a battery monitor software (BatteryStatus) confirmed an additional current draw of approx. 50mA after the mentioned GPS port access.

I found a promising registry entry HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/GPS Intermediate Driver/Drivers/SleepOnNoData but again it does not seem to have the least of an effect (default is 1000).

HTC support claimed "they know of no issues in conjunction with the Kaiser" - well at that point I was not even able to put my question. Which somehow tells me how serious these guys take their customers :mad:.

BusterTyTN
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BusterTyTN:
One thing I forgot: knowing that the GPS does not turn off, I use to apply a soft reset whenever I used a GPS software. Voilá, several days runtime until I have to recharge!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] meathome22:
this confirms my suspicion...

now and then it happend that the battery of my tytn was empty in the morning. I never really proved that it happend after using gps, and looked for a thread here....well, here it is...

Others must have made the same observation.....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BusterTyTN:
Today I succeeded submitting a bug report to HTC, at last... built a test setup, made measurements with a digital scope, documented everything. The problem can always be reproduced. There is a smooth, steady state current consumption of nearly 50mA after the GPS has been used, without any software running in the background. Until you soft reset the device.

I will let you know as soon as I have news on this one. Whoever can reproduce this, please add a note to this thread. This power management issue is getting more and more interesting.

what should my kaisers power usage be at on average, mine seems very high at an average of 250mW?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BusterTyTN:
Good idea. Let's take typical power measurements and state them here. I will come back with some more values later on. I do not have my scope measurements within reach, and I am going to complete the picture with the help of "BatteryStatus". Here's what comes right out of my memory:

In standby, no background software, no communications etc.: next to nothing, 0 to 1mA / 0..3mW

Active, still no software or communications, just the "today" screen, brightness at the second lowest setting: ~180mW

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Nakel:
I'm using the Garmin software for gps, and I don't seem to have te battery drain problem. with Garmin xt running 220 - 280 ma. Once I shut down Garmin xt it slowly drops, taking from 3 to 5 minutes, back to a normal 60 -70 ma. (1 -3 ma in standby.)

Good luck sorting this out.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BusterTyTN:
Typical power data

Nakel, negative proof is just as good as positive. Well possible that there is a dependency on the ROM type / branding / OEM configuration, so maybe you're so kind to add the brand / type / ROM # of your device. And perhaps you can try GPSTest and check the battery current in standby again - just to exclude nasty side effects.

My device is the "Vodafone VPA compact V", ROM Version 1.56.162.5, Radio 1.27.12.11. No updates so far. Here comes its power consumption data, taken using "BatteryStatus". I observed the power display for a few minutes in each situation and tried to catch the lowest readouts. The individual sections were activated one by one. Sorry I forgot to check the current increase at full brightness, but I think that is of secondary interest here.

1. Pstby = 0..3mW (reference for the following)

2. Pon = 155..180 mW (reference, set to lowest brightness, no task running, didnt touch screen nor buttons)

3. Pon+20mW = 175..200 mW GSM phone logged in, no calls

4. Pon+5..10mW = 160..190 mW BT on, no link

5. Pon+130..400mW = 280..560 mW WLAN, no data transfers

6. Pon+850mW = 1000 mW GPS on, SW running (OziExplorer or GPSTest), with & w/o GPS fix

7. Pon+200mW = 340 mW On, after GPS access. Same situation as 2. otherwise.

8. Pstby+180 mW = 180mW standby, after GPS access. Same situation as 1.

9. Pon+380mW = 540 mW Mediaplayer running, 0%Volume

10. Pon+530mW = 680 mW 5% volume, internal speaker

11. Pon+260mW = 410 mW, 5% volume, display completely off

Scope readouts show very little battery current ripple (clean DC) in situations 1. and 8. Significant ripple in all other modes.

You have to make sure you close the GPS application and not just minimize it. If you minimize the GPS app that you are running the GPS will continue to stay on, draining the battery.

I had battery drain issues just twice: those times the phone completely drained the battery in a few hours... possibly more or less the 6 hours even dhob187 experienced.

According to MSDN the intermediate driver 'counts' the number of open connections to it. After all programs have closed their connection the driver shuts the gps down. When an program 'forgets' to close it's connection the driver doesn't shut down the driver. Could be an good idea to write an little program to check the status of the driver (with IOCTL_SERVICE_STATUS?) and/or start and stop the driver (IOCTL_SERVICE_START / IOCTL_SERVICE_STOP)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BusterTyTN:
Hi all!

dhob187: sounds interesting. Yes, please keep testing!

sinanju: no application running. Problem even appears when starting then stopping "GPSTest". All user tasks were killed. Though the others are right: as long as a software closes the GPS port by itself, you're in good shape.

Gpx85: this may point at a temporary bug. And if it completely drained your battery, it will of course come up clean as soon as you brought your device back to life.

CdB: right, this kind of driver requires all previously connected applications to be disconnected before it sends the GPS chip into sleep mode. Makes sense. But since I started then exited just one app, after coming right out of soft reset, this should not be an issue. And yes, I also thought of a small tool, to check the status of the GPS unit. Right now it's more like poking around in the dark. Unfortunately I spend enough time in other embedded systems as to be able to set up yet another development toolchain for this little HTC sucker (and if life weren't already tough enough, I first have to fix my workstation which starts acting funny).

SatScan: May be right, and I already considered this as a brute force attack, but for certain reasons I do not want to cook my own ROM at this time...

Anyway, I have the gutt feel that there was a nasty bug in the GPS driver in earlier versions...

Hello all,

I cold-started my PDA then reinstalled all applications, one by one, permanently verifying whether the unusual GPS current drain reappeared. It did, and the culprit is --- "DisplayOff". On execution, it seems to mess up the GPS power management irreversibly, so better avoid using this one.

Does anybody know a different method to disable the display? This feature is already integrated in media player, but I want to use it with other applications as well.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BusterTyTN:
That was not it. After executing a good number of cold starts I was down to just the "BatteryStatus" and "GPSTest" app's. This excessive current consumption seems non-deterministic in nature.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BusterTyTN:
Replacement device results

Hi,

received the replacement device today. Installed "BatteryStatus" and "GPSTest" on the fresh device. Same results. After using then shutting down GPS the current consumption in standby went up to 28mA, and stuck there. That's lower than the original 48mA, but the essential problem is still present. Never returns to the normally low standby current of <1mA. Now I am pretty sure there is a serious bug in the GPS driver. And I bet there's thousands of users outside, having the very same problem without knowing it. A service assistant of the provider confirmed they have many customer complaints in conjunction with this "Kaiser" thing.
