hey guys, need some help =/

I'm using the fresh rom 3.1.02 and I just recently flashed King's cfs 7 kernal on my phone. it was working fine, then i installed setcpu and copied abkrieger profiles from one of his recent posts. next thing i did was run neocore just to see the benchmark and next thing u know my phone freezes, and reboots.. and reboots.. and reboots without giving me a chance to do anything. I mean it loads up but as soon as it says SetCPU has been granted superuser permission my phone freezes up :confused:

I read also from SetCPU that I might have to disable Perflock? I'm not sure if I'm suppose to for this kernal, I tried searching but couldn't find it, perhaps I'm entering it in wrong? anyway, was hoping someone could help me out, phone just stuck rebooting over and over again :(

thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] Clay333:
I'm using the beta 4.1.9.1 cfs and love it. I have tried CM6, but don't use it as my main rom simply because I can't use this kernal with it. Right now I'm using a highly customized stock froyo rom with this kernal and couldn't be happier.i tried the stable version first and it was very nice to, but I couldn't resist the HAVS. This kernal has much better performance plus better battery life than the stock one.anyone interested in this kernal go ahead and grab the beta, it seems completely stable got me after 3 days of constant use. Thanks Netarchy!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] _MetalHead_:
4.1.8 worked fine for me but for some reason, the cfs beta won't boot up. I'll flash it and then reboot the phone, but it never gets out of the white hTC EVO 4G screen. Just hangs up there and reboots again. My buddy loves this kernel and I really want to try it out, any help would be appreciated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DaWhip:
You need to change setcpu to not overclock on boot. It sounds like your hardware isnt handling overclocking as well as abkreiger, so you need to step down the cpu and find a stable speed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cjaydb:
Ohhh I see now, thanks man. I ended up having to just NAND restore right now as it wouldn't even let me go into SetCpu to turn that option off, it just kept freezing and rebooting.

Many thanks. :)

VPNC Issues

Same exact problem here. It worked fine on netarchy's 3.7.8b Froyoized, it works on CM6, but on the 4.X Kernels it will connect but no connectivity to any internal sites. Has anyone found a solution for this??

Aside from that I am usung 4.1.9.1 and no issues!

There has to be some words missing here because the last sentence doesn't read right.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
Did I post settings that OC'd? (over 1 gigahertz?) Sorry dude, I should have posted that all phones can't handle certain speeds. Usually when I post my settings for people I clarify that they should slowly overclock. My bad bro!

Ha you didn't deserve that picture, sorry, just wanted to try it out :P

The reason I didn't answer though is because although it isn't on the front page, it is in this thread at least 10 times with full explanations. Next time I see it explained I am going to save it with my battery tips document so that I may refer people to it. Sorry I was a jerk

[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
How is bfs and cfs performing so different for people on the EVO with identical hardware?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
Couple reasons:

1. Hardware isn't as identical as you'd think. Poorly calibrated factory settings and inconsistent manufacturing specifications give an uneven distribution of certain things, like screen types. Just think of Nova panes vs. epson to get an idea of what I mean.

2. Because of these variations, the tables used for messing with custom kernel's clocking don't fit everyone, and if enough stuff is different, similar settings can crash different phones.

Netarchy or someone who knows more feel free to correct this, but from what I've gathered in my time here, this is about why.

BTW freeza, my ban ended on ppcgeeks today, but I think I've grown to love xda, so I probably won't go back :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] SharkUW:
Just came back after testing Kings for a week. This is waay better. Using cfs beta.
[EVO 4G Android Development] akarol:
Yeah, the new King kernel is a flop, but the earlier ones are way better than net's. At least that's the consensus.
[EVO 4G Android Development] felacio:
Was it King BFS #7 or CFS #8? Because both of those are said to have issues.

I think I was using HAVS 4.1.9.1 when I was getting all the lockups. So, i'm gonna try CFS.. even though whatever 4.1.9.1 I was using felt pretty good and the battery was doing pretty well

...in 1943, I killed a drifter.
[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
So how many people prefer cfs over bfs? What made you come to that conclusion? And what is your max overclock? Oh and what screen type?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SharkUW:
Bfs6 for the most part which was tolerable. Better than stock though. I upgraded to 7 earlier tonight and it was nasty. Figured I'd try an Archy again and went with cfs. It's so fast and smooth.
[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
Never mind, I totally understand. I tried cfs and wow it is much better than bfs
[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
Which is actually amusing as hell considering the majority of the patches are from my sources. I call placebo.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
Glad to see that you play nice with other devs, netarchy. Back for the first couple months when I had my Evo, OMJ was having some issues with his first ROMs, and the other chefs wouldn't help him out of some stupid attempt at maximizing their profit from donations, or something.. Whatever the case, XDA is for sharing (and giving credit where credit is due) so right now I am giving you credit for a job well done in the kernel world, and a donation will be sent your way. We here all appreciate your time and friendliness, and hope you keep doing what you do.

Rockin' 4.19-cfs

Why?

Under a large load BFS just went completely unstable for me. The only 'hiccup' I've had with CFS is one random time that the phone stopped responding to my swipes while a call came in. After the call went to voicemail, the phone started running fine again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dgreyesq:
Hey Netarchy - same issue for me. Running 4.1.9.1 with HAVS, but I can't get the CFS version of either 4.1.8 or the beta to load. Both flash OK, I cleared cache and dalvik, but still get stuck on the white HTC EVO 4G screen. Don't have that problem with the bfs version. BTW - thanks for all your work.

more info on this kernel?
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
The .34 kernel that snap is using now....that kernel is a beast.

CM6 / Snap Powered
[EVO 4G Android Development] Compusmurf:
Stang... Not quite correct.

According to flipzmode (Fresh Evo roms)

The new kernel is: Based on a brand new Sprint OTA that hasn't been released yet (3.28.651.1)

Link with info:

http://geekfor.me/evo/22/coming-soon-fresh-evo-32/
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Nice! Looks awesome. So is this kernel newer than the .34 that Snap is using?

CM6 / Snap Powered
[EVO 4G Android Development] Compusmurf:
I believe what you are referring to is the underlying core OS version. Don't mix up the HTC released os/kernel version with AOSP builds.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
I believe I was....so what your saying is that ASOP gets completely different kernels than what HTC/sense run on?

CM6 / Snap Powered
[EVO 4G Android Development] Compusmurf:
I do believe that's the case. They use a full open source version. It has it's advantages and disadvantages. CM6 has a MUCH NICER BT stack, but it doesn't have 4G, FM radio and a few other goodies. HTC's core stuff is wrapped around SENSE and stuff.

Not the correct place to discuss the pro's and con's of either, but this new OTA update, if it's really....real, seems promising for us. :)

*plus says that HTC and Sprint haven't "stopped" support for the EVO and moved on to bigger, better things....
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Very cool. I have spent a lot of time with Cyanogen's rom.....4g is in my area now...hopefully someone will do a some what senseless rom with this new base. Thanks for the clarification.

Sorry if this was answered somewhere upthread, but I can't find it. I'm having the same issue, no shutter sound in the default camera app, but I do get it using Goggles. I've tried clearing the camera data with no luck. I've also tried disabling and enabling the shutter sound in the camera preferences, no luck. Everything else works fine, so this isn't a big issue, but it is annoying.

I'm running 4.1.8-bfs on the latest Ava ROM BTW.
[EVO 4G Android Development] skydeaner:
I'm getting very bad battery life on the beta right now. Maybe around 2 hours of web browsing over WiFi and I hit 12 percent. I get over 12 hours on 4.1.8 just thought I would contribute and let you know. I love your kernels, and appreciate your work.

Oh yea, this is with no overclocking, everything on default, setcpu not even installed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
Have you wiped cache and dalvik-cache?

the 3mp issue was only relevant for the 3.x froyoized kernel builds (as they were basically using a 2.6.29 kernel hacked up to work in froyo). When the 2.6.32 sources were released, the problem went away pretty much overnight.

It sounds like something could be lingering, be it old cache data, an old config, etc.
[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
Which beta, the CFS or the BFS build?
[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
Getting fantastic battery life with CFS! I was a victim of "word around the streets" and thought BFS was automatically better, but preliminary results show CFS to be the superior scheduler to use on my EVO.

Caution: Permanently broken 4G w/ overclocking

Yep, I somehow managed to fry 4G just by flashing a kernel and overclocking. I do not fully understand how this is possible but I assure you it is.

I had been running Netarchy 4.1.9.1 bfs since it's release at 1228mhz. It appeared to be relatively stable. A few days ago I started experiencing some instability. It got to the point where I began getting random reboots, and when I would boot homescreen icons and widgets would be missing. If I attempted to run the application the icon was referencing, it would tell me the application was not installed.

I think this was somehow related a corrupted cache, because clearing my cache and dalvik cache fixed the problem. After one random reboot, my 4G mysteriously stopped working. Upon further inspection I realized I had the dreaded 00:16:08:00:24:05 mac address. I do not fully understand how the kernel interacts with the hardware, so I'm not sure this is possible. However it apparently is. I fixed my mac address, still no go. It turns out I somehow corrupted my wimax partition. This is from ONLY flashing a kernel. I did not flash a new rom, new radio, or new wimax radio. The only thing I changed on my system was the kernel and the clock speed.

As a last ditch effort I ran a stock RUU and re-rooted, still no go. Judging from the symptoms and a look at a logcat, I definitely corrupted my wimax partition and borked my RSA certificates. At this point the only solution is replacement.

Fortunately I was already planning on replacing my evo due to screen separation, lcd discoloration above the processor, and the power button crack. I will be picking up a replacement today for the hardware defects today and get my 4G back as a bonus.

The solution? Make sure you back up your wimax partition and your RSA certificates. I was not aware that I should have done so and lost 4G because of it. Amon recovery v1.8.0 backs up your wimax partition for you, so as far as I know this should keep you safe should you lose your RSA certs. Unfortunately I was running 1.7.0.1 an hadn't backed up my wimax partition or RSA certs. Live and learn...
[EVO 4G Android Development] fr4nk1yn:
How could a corruption change your MAC address to something so specific?

Back to CFS. BFS seems to become unstable after a few days of use.

Tried going back to the stock kernel a few times and :ack: How can battery life of this kernel possibly be that much better?!

Problem with Last.fm on 4.1.9.1-havs

I'm on a stock 2.2 rom rooted with unrevoked S-OFF. I tried the 4.1.9.1 beta first and it worked for a bit but when I tried to open Last it kept force closing. I had put in the workaround to disable stagefright so I re-enabled it and rebooted. Same thing as before.

I then tried to uninstall and reinstall but when I did all the apps on the phone crashed in succession.

I loaded up the 4.1.8.1 (bfs) and it seems to work just fine.

I've searched google and the forum but can't find any indication of this happening to anyone else.

Do a little searching for yourself. There's a thread with a novatek kernel. Please help this community by searching before asking.

[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
It's actually very possible this will mess with your ability to use the HDMI out, sacrificing the more often than not unused hdmi out ability for framerate. I don't have anything I'd use the hdmi out on to test with so I'll have to rely on feedback to know if it does mess up hdmi out for sure.

That said, for the sake of testing, try build 3.0 briefly and see if the hdmi out is still b0rked. The framerate won't be as high but for the sake of testing I'd just want to know if the hdmi out works.

using Fresh 0.5.3 on Epson with your 3.5 normal build.... WOW.

i must say. I am ecstatic to have an Epson screen now. kept thinking it was Novatek or bust.

smoothest i've seen this phone run. can't find any screen tearing anywhere no matter how fast i move the screen.

two things though: play Doodle Jump... it feels like when the frame is that high that it is running smooth as all hell but the doodle jump guy moves in steps. very smooth steps but that's just what im getting. upped my processor to 1.1ghz and still getting the "steps".

also, my battery is running at a constant 99.8 degrees Fahrenheit.

anyone get that doodle jump issue i tried explaining?

[EVO 4G Android Development] Kongax:
First off, thank you, I love your kernal, using 3.5 with Baked Snack 9.6 and getting 55fps with 5-6 dev in fps2d, absolutely perfect so far.

However, correct me if I'm just having a brainfart here, but your profiles for the Priority settings for battery amounts seem to be backwards, if you make the higher percentage the highest priority it will never change from that. Example:

battery = 10%

battery < 75% = true (priority 90)

battery < 25% = true (priority 50)

both are true however the higher priority profile wins(75% because its 90), this means it would never go into 50% or 25% profiles, like, ever. :)

I've got mine set like so:

Screen Off: 128min 128max Priority 100

Charging/Full: 576min 1113max Priority 99

Battery < 25%: 128min 384 max Priority 25

Battery < 50%: 128min 768 max Priority 24

Battery < 75%: 128min 998 max Priority 23

I put screen off as top priority because even if charging and screen off you may as well draw least juice as possible so it charges faster. I've got sampling at 50,000, threshold 75 just like you, seems to work good, less "start up sluggies".

Just thought this might help some people understand the profiles in case they arent using it right.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xweaponx:
I installed the revision 3.6 for Nova screen; my fps went from 42 (with ffolkes) to 25 and the whole system was very sluggish.

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
Priority sets evaluation order.

ie;

with charging/full at 100% it's the first thing checked

with <75 at 90 it's the 2nd thing checked, etc etc

BUT

Lower % threshholds also take priority over everything else,

so a <25% profile will always take priority over a <75% profile if the rule matches.

Technically I think you may be correct if you want your profiles to be evaluated from the bottom up (least power to most power) whereas I have it check from the top down for the most part heh. There could be some room for improvement. As I understand it, my profiles should work like so:

"Are we charging/pull?" if no then

"Are we less than 75%?" if no then

"Is the screen off?" ... etc

I can confirm.

Does any one know if perflock is disabled in these kernels
[EVO 4G Android Development] JLMurphy:
Yeah, I've wiped the cache a couple of time using Clockwork, but I think I'll flash the Amon-RA recovery and see if that helps. I haven't had any issues with the operation of the camera itself, resolution is ok and everything works, it's just that I lost the shutter click. Ironically, I was planning on disabling it anyway, but I'm interested to know why it quit working.

Update: Tried wiping both caches using RA 1.8, no change. It's really weird how it works in Goggles but not in the regular camera app. Oh well, everything else seems to work ok, so I guess I'll chalk it up to gremlins and ignore it.

headphone volume

I tried searching for this around the forums but didnt find anything so if I am reasking a question I appologize in advance....

I noticed that in the kernel included in Baked Snacks (which from what I understand is a netarchy kernel...correct me if I'm wrong) it was noted that the audio gain was tweaked for higher volume in the handset speak. I was just wondering if the same thing or sommething similar could be done for the headphone jack. I use that to listen to music in my car and with both the media volume at max and the stereo volume at max it still isnt all that loud.

thanks
