Any news on the issue on nova screens about the 2 point touch?
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
Did that only affect nova screens? If so, I guess I have a nova cuz I'm down to 2 point. Never checked (or knew a definitive way to for that matter.)
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuddaBelly:
It's not just the Nova screens. I lost my 5 point I believe with the latest base (I have Nova screen). My wife still had 5 point because I hadn't updated her ROM for a while. Well I just updated hers tonight with Nets 1.4.2 and now she is down to 2 point as well. She has the Epson screen with rev.003. I believe his rom comes with 4.3.1 Kernel. Looks like it has something to do with the latest base but hey I'm no dev...But I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night!

[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
So if I'm understanding this correctly, SBC, IF it ****s up anything at all, it'll just be the battery, not the phone? That I can live with. Batteries are cheap. This is what I was gathering from the pages I read, but damn, there's a lot of back and forth info on this subject.
[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
That appears to be correct, it does not appear to be limited to Nova panels. So far I've found people who have mysteriously lost 5 point with both panel types, as well as people who never lost it.

Tracking down the cause is going to be ... interesting.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuddaBelly:
And we do appreciate your work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] vietfobulust:
So far so good. This kernel is very smooth and the battery is better than HTC #15 that comes with Myn's Warm 2.2

Count me in on the 5-point touch loss :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] xHausx:
The post is misleading because the op doesn't understand what the issue at hand is, all li-ion batts have circuitry inside of them.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xHausx:
4.3.1 worked great at getting rid of the tearing once again, however I just checked and noticed I lost 3 point multi-touch as well. Not that big a deal since I had to actually check before I noticed it but just wanted to give you a heads up that it is happening on 3-point panels as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
lost 5 point with these kernels, also noticed my battery drops alot quicker when in use. :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] LuvThyMetal:
Everyone keeps talking about 5 point and such. I'm lost, what is that!? Sorry for the noob question
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuddaBelly:
Go to market and get a program called "Dotty". Open up dotty and see how many fingers you can touch to your panel and get dots to show up. You will either get 2,3 or 5.

count me in the mix of losing my 5pt touch.

I'm running Burnt Droid 1.4 with 4.3.1 cfs-havs kernel (also has the slate theme and hotspot fix) 0003 Hardware with Nova screen bought in June 2010
[EVO 4G Android Development] mildlydisturbed:
Just YI - on mine Android system still pegging to 100% even after flashing pri and NV to 1.77. I even swapped out the kernel last night from the BFS build to the CFS as it starts getting extremely jerky and jumpy before it finally goes full bore into uselessness and I thought that might have something to do with the BFS.

3.4.1 CFS HAVS SBC now.

This morning I woke to a phone that would not respond and it said Sense was using all the CPU, which was a new one on me.

(to clarify, twice last night Android System reports 100% in OS monitor, flash CFS then it's sense this morning)

HW 003
[EVO 4G Android Development] Agfadoc:
Wow.. I would just wipe data and reflash your rom and start fresh. But that's me.,.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SSaxman:
Thanks for this BuddaBelly. I've been wondering how to check this. Just downloaded it and I still have five-point touch. Running 4.3.1-cfs-cfs, Myn's RLS5, old radios/PRI (09.01/1.77), on H/W 0002.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuddaBelly:
I wonder if it has something to do with the radios...I am running all the new radios with the exception of the PRI. I'm still on 1.7 on that.

EDIT: Figured I would flash back the radios and that made no difference in multi touch... Next I went back to the stable kernel which gave me 5 point before and still nothing. I wonder if it is ROM based.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sypris:
This happened when I was running Warm TwoPointTwo RLS4 (I've gone to RLS5 with no changes) and the 1.77 PRI and NV, as required (the ROM didn't play nice with 1.90). And I can't use the stable build due to my camera not working on it (0004 hardware).

The battery gets very warm since this happened, and I still need to get a replacement. I've been busy lately and haven't had time. I'll reflash the 1.77 PRI/NV again though, to see what happens.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nck4857:
Did the 1.77 fix your problems? I flashed 4.3-bfs-havs-more-nosbc-universal-signed.zip with 1.90PRI and my awake time over night was like 5 minutes out of 10 hours and the battery dropped 6% or so...

Sense is using most of the battery, but I haven't been doing a whole lot.. Just wondering if I should go back to 1.77 or not...?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stevenskii:
I've noticed much higher battery drain, or at least did with the stock kernel and PRI 1.90 but I switched to the nosbc kernel and it really hasn't been so bad. Haven't noticed high awake times in spareparts, would reverting to 1.77 really do anything for me?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nck4857:
I flashed 4.3-bfs-havs-more-nosbc-universal with 1.90 and seem to be getting good battery life and low awake times.... I think for now I'm gonna stick with 1.90..

I rebooted my phone right before going to bed last night, and the awake time was like 5 minutes out of 10hours of up time, spare parts says Sense is using most of the battery, which I guess can be expected since I'm not using much of anything else right now.. Used about 6% battery overnight with 3G on..

I also noticed a huge increase in speed after this kernel, I'm just hoping that when I use it heavily it doesn't suck the battery down a lot more..
[EVO 4G Android Development] mildlydisturbed:
I'm at day 3 of the ROM/Kernel, reverted back to day 1 at one point yesterday. Not much more fresh I can go. I think on day 1 I asked about the 100% CPU times and was told to flash the older PRI/NV. These did nothing to alleviate the android system pegging at 100%

This morning on CFS build it absolutely refused to boot, ended up flashing the BFS kernel back on it to get it to boot.

I'm beginning to suspect that since the screen got fixed at 4.3.1 something broke... 4.3 worked flawlessly (except the screen looked like crap for the first minute or two of booting) for me, all of 4.3.1 I've tried has been a little off.

Just realized I have not tried the NOHAVS kernels in all these tests... going to try that next...
[EVO 4G Android Development] mildlydisturbed:
nope, 1.77 didn't change anything for me. I'm beginning to suspect it may be my phone liked 4.3 HAVS but dislikes 4.3.1 HAVS as that's the last combo I have not tried...

I'll be flashing that tonight to see if the 4.3.1 NOHAVS works... based on my weird inability to boot this morning without removing the battery and reflashing the kernel I'm leaning toward some voltage weirdness is making the CPU or something wonky...

I think when you play with the cutting edge you get cut occasionally... ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] nck4857:
Ha, this is true.. my phone is running good, but I rebooted it after messing with some 4G settings and it FC twice while booting up... Finally up and running,but I have a feeling it has to do with the kernel... I'm too nervous to reboot again and see if it starts up.....
[EVO 4G Android Development] adhusky:
It happened to me once with android.process.acore which went 100% cpu after I wake it up in the morning so I had to reboot. I forgot which kernel I used. I often changed the kernel. lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] xHausx:
Is every one remembering to wipe their cache/dalvik when flashing these?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bjb_nyj101:
I was on 1.90 and I was getting 100% awake time. Downgraded to 1.77 and everything has been perfect ever sense.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mildlydisturbed:
For my last upgrade:

dalvik wiped via titanium, then via CWM recovery

cachecleaner ran, then formatted/erased cache partition via CWM

For switching between BFS to CFS same as above

Today for switching from CFS which refused to work back to BFS I just flashed it (no issues so far)

4.3.1 HAVS SBC CFS/BFS

Last night when it was at 100% I managed to look at a log via OS Monitor I did see Dalvik mentioned and then the phone rebooted. Switched to CFS and ran it for ~9 hours before it wouldn't start, back to BFS and have been fine all day.
[EVO 4G Android Development] malibu_23:
WTF according to that dotty app, i only have 2 pt multitouch support?! how that happen? accorinding to ADB i should be getting 5 pt...

how did i lose it and is it gone forever?
[EVO 4G Android Development] akarol:
Yes. You have to get a replacement in order to get 5 pt multi touch back. Lucky for you, customer support is open 24/7.

Just wondering could someone pm what the difference is between different screens and such, hate to be a noob.
[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
He's messing with you. It's a quirk that has been affecting a number of people. At the moment I'm trying to pin down if it's a quirk related to the kernel, or a quirk related to 3.70.x based roms.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kawasaki00:
Here is a screen shot of dc 3.2.3 oc to 1.113 and latest kernel. No tearing. Everything (wifi, 4g is still working). I am using the 3.6.2b kernel made for the dc rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] luisrcastillo:
With the default, I am getting 45 FPS and stdev of 14.24. When I change T2 to 400 I get 52 FPS and ~4 stdev. I have SetCPU on 1036/1267. I seems everyone is getting different results. Unfortunately, if I change my T2 and cycle the screen it goes back to default. Do you think it's a possibility to allow people to use Evo Switch?
[EVO 4G Android Development] xcopmanx2:
Yeah, I figured. Just wasn't sure if there was a method to make it stick. I am using the OTA 1.47 stock rooted with the 06.10 radio, nova 002 and the 3.6.2 kernel. I closed all apps.

With 364: avg=53, sd=12.26, with 361: avg=54, sd=11.06, with 400: avg=49, sd=10.35, with 410: avg=48, sd=9.72, with 420: avg=48, sd=8.14.

I was getting a tight grouping at 400 before, using the same kernel, rom, everything. idk why it is different now. I got a sd of around 4 before with 400. Weird. Any hints on to why that is? Maybe over time, messing with the frequency is somehow....hmm, idk. Let's hope it's not damaging it. lol. I never dropped below 250 and highest I used was 420. No overclock, btw. SetCPU isn't installed currently.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
WOOHOO!!! you got it wifi works 4g works. I'm going to test the rest of the stuff thanks so much I knew you could do it. What was it by the way?

averaging 57!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
It is allowed, if in a limited capacity simply as a fallback. The reason the evo switch doesn't "stick" at the moment is due to the nature of the current fix. It's also worth noting that the fix approach does more than just set the T2 value. The goal is to eliminate needing evo switch at all.

If you lower your max speed in setcpu to not overclock so hard, does the fps improve? (ie; if you drop the max to say, 998, does it improve at all?)
[EVO 4G Android Development] spiicytuna:
I am posting my findings so that hopefully we can see some sort of pattern emerge. When I first switched to 3.6.2 from 3.6.1 I initially could NOT break 45fps. After talking to netarchy I realized that setcpu had gone back to "ondemand" but left my overclock at 1152. netarchy had me check my threshold and sample rate unde the advanced tab. I changed them to what he recommended and it was still a no go. In the end, at the stock clock speed, with ondemand, and netarchy's thresh/samp rate I was able to get 55fps using on demand. Anyone who is having issues getting > 50fps please check to see if you are overclocked, if yes, try the stock clock speed. Also, if you're running in ondemand mode in setcpu, click on the advanced tab and see if your sampling rate is 50,000 with a threshold of 70-75%.

Here's what I've noticed on my phone:

1. If I run overclocked to 1152, in performance mode (setcpu), I get 56-57fps with a stdev < 5

2. If I run overclocked to 1152, in ondemand, with a sampling rate of 50,000 with a threshold of 72%, I cannot break 45fps with a stdev > 14

3. If I run the stock clock speed, in on demand, with a sampling rate of 50,000 with a threshold of 72%, I get 54-55fps with a stdev < 7
[EVO 4G Android Development] spiicytuna:
Are you running in ondemand or performance? Would you be willing to run the test at stock speed vs oc?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mikevillarroel:
i got 54fps without installing Setcpu, i do have the overclock widget installed, do i need to use Setcpu at all?
[EVO 4G Android Development] evertith:
The devs that dedicate all the hard work, and drink the ridiculous amounts of energy drinks at 3am, to give us Evo users these awesome results... are amazing.

Thanks guys!

[EVO 4G Android Development] spiicytuna:
Nope. > 50fps is the goal of this fix. At this point I think setcpu and oveclocking may be the root of some peoples problems breaking 50fps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SilverStone641:
okay, couple of questions before i load this puppy up.

1) is there any need to format/reload the rom to get this working? or is just a "flash this zip and voila" install?

2) has anyone tried it on OMJ's rom?

3) is there a way to backup my existing kernel as it is now in case anything goes south?

finally, thank you for all your hard work. you guys make XDA what it is:cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] thenewguy821:
I was getting better fps and stdev in 3.3 than in 3.6.2.

DC 3.2.3 / Epson Screen / 0003 Build.

I don't really want to play around with overclocking, but would like to see better numbers with 3.6.2. I am averaging 44-47 fps @ 13-14 stdev. Don't know how to change to "On demand performance" or what T2 is, nor how to change it...
[EVO 4G Android Development] spiicytuna:
1. No, you can flash over what you have

2. Not sure

3. You can extract the .img file from the zip file and use a fastboot to try out the fps fix first. That way if it doesnt work, reboot and you'll be right back where you started. Using the fastboot method will break your wifi.... but if the fps works for you with fastboot it pretty much means you're ready to flash the zip file with recovery and will be good to go.

My posts on the previous pages re: setcpu were more directed to the nova users not epson. I am a nova / 002 user and I am not sure about the epson side of the street. That being said, you're not the first epson user to post these same results....

Hey Guys,

[EVO 4G Android Development] Varo210:
OK, I'm confused now, if I run overclocked to 1152, ondemand, with the sampling rate of 50,000 and a threshold of 72%, I get my best results of any of those settings. Lower stdev on all runs. If I try and go above the 1152, my results tumble.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Krandor311:
This definitely looks to be giving solid results for Nova users but seems like whatever changed was a step down for Epson users.

Regardless, it's a big step in the right direction for a universal kernel, since enough people seem to get confused going into the wrong threads.
[EVO 4G Android Development] spiicytuna:
It shouldn't matter, but did you reboot after you uninstalled setcpu? I only ask because a reboot would start you at a "clean slate" per say. Also if you did reboot how long after the phone came up did you run the fps2d? What does gears show for you?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Calkulin:
Of course, I'm a Windows guy lol But I did reboot twice to make sure and even restored my backup that never had SetCPU, EVO switch to start fresh again, same results
[EVO 4G Android Development] spiicytuna:
What does gears show you for fps?
[EVO 4G Android Development] akarol:
Lol, I'm kidding man. You're fine. Its a bug with the new kernel for some. net is looking into it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gotshores:
wonder what's causing the 5 point multitouch issue? I'm running 4.3.1 nosbc cfs. Mine is working here and all my radio's and stuff are updated. I did update my radios through the official OTA though, just kept my Security-off and I was able to re-root easily. If logcats will help figure this out, let me know. Love this kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] flyboy1100:
quick question on mulit-touch since search seems to be INOP.

my screen supports 5 point, but it doesn't matter which kernel i try (4.1.9.1, 4.2.1, 4.3.1, or Ziggy 1/2/11) when i test it out, i only get 2 points using that Dotty program. is this normal or does that mean i have an issue?

[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
The cause of the loss of 5pt is still unknown, though if it's not working on 4.1.9.1 that makes me lean more towards the cause being something outside the kernel.

Do you happen to be using a 3.70.x based rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
3.70 ROMs do include a "touchscreen" file in /system/bin/

Think that might have something to do with it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mildlydisturbed:
Got possibly a lead on my issues with the kernel... short is yesterday it locked up (100% cpu) rebooted and nothing short of flashing a new kernel would get it to boot. I rebooted a few times today to make sure it was working and everything was fine.

I had to pull the battery tonight while it was locked up in MSL reader / ##DATA#, when it came back up same issue - would get to first white HTC screen and never further. Tried 2 or 3 battery pulls and would never get past the first bright white HTC screen.

Rebooted into recovery, wiped cache and dalvik, rebooted, thing worked fine again. No kernel flashing or anything required. Is it possible that one of those caches is preventing a kernel load, or is this just a coincidence - perhaps having the system on for a minute stabilizing it or something?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] gotshores:
here's my info if it helps. I'm using Myn's RLS 5. I updated all my radio's with the Official OTA, then re-rooted, then applied Myn's, matted blues theme, and DG4FREE's rosie 4x5 mod. My evo is a 003 version. i'm running the 4.3.1 cfs havs nosbc. I'm also using Amon RA 1.8 as recovery if that matters. And I do get 5 point touch on Dotty, multitouch tester, and mutitouch visualizer 2.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuddaBelly:
It has to be rom based. I reverted back to old radios and flashed 4.1.9.1 and still had no 5 point. I guess I could stop being lazy and just flash an older rom to see for sure. If I get time later I will try it.

On a probably unrelated issue I was one of the people that flashed the wrong panel driver that calk had posted awhile back. I did flash back to the right driver and everything worked after that. Probably not the problem but thought I would throw it out there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fastamx79:
+1 thinking the 5pt issue is ROM based as well..

I've been having major battery drain issues with 4.3.1 kernel (cfs havs) where I would lose 10% every 5 minutes.. tried reverting to 1.77 for PRI and NV but that didn't help.. went back to 1.9 PRI and NV and re-flashed 4.2.2 cfs havs more and my battery life is back to normal... but checking dotty with 4.2.2 also gives me 2pt touch and not 5pt.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nck4857:
I finally checked and I only have 2 point, also.. Running the newest SprintLovers with 4.3 BFS HAVS MORE NOSBC...

I've searched all over and found a lot of stuff, but can someone tell me whether or not I can use SetCpu with this kernel? I would like to be able to throttle down the processor if i'm doing something like reading an amazon book for a couple hours and then be able to let it run wild if i'm doing something more demanding.. Do I need a NOHAVS for this, or can I adjust these with this kernel?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuddaBelly:
Yes setcpu is compatible. Just use the kernel of your liking. Any of Nets kernels will work fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Agfadoc:
2 point here too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Agfadoc:
I just tried going back to 4.1.9.1 without SBC and I still have only two point. I am leaning towards ROM...

I don't think it matters anyway.. is there any apps that use MultiTouch?
[EVO 4G Android Development] flying_low:
Still have 5 point touch, 003 hardware
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
Lost my five point. Running mikfroyo 4.2. I updated to 370 before I rooted. Soon as I flashed net's 4.3.1 havs nosbc I lost five pt. Went back to htc# 15 kernel and it's still gone. Hopefully this helps to maybe identify and fix this issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] adrian2pm:
Thank you net best kernel. I can finally leave the charger at home

[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
If anyone who has lost 5point touch is feeling brave, try removing the "touchscreen" file in /system/bin/ (after a nandroid backup of course) It's one of the only things in the 3.70 ROM update that I can think of that would have anything to do with the problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuddaBelly:
I will rename it and post back.....
[EVO 4G Android Development] jpmaniac87:
Lost my 5 point too... could it be the software 3.70? I'm on Myn's rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
Waiting to hear results :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] adrian2pm:
So if you get less than 5 does this mean your phone is what?
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuddaBelly:
Renamed the file and moved it to the sdcard then rebooted. Still no 5 point. Not sure what that file is for.
[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
Weird :\

It was added with the 3.70 software so I assumed it had something to do with the problem. Oh well, back to the drawing board.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
what ever points they register is how many individual points of contact the kernel will recognize. So unless your app needs to register more than two points your fine
[EVO 4G Android Development] adrian2pm:
Oh OK..so i will not be missing amytjimg? I was gonna flash another rom to check which ones ill get with 5 point
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuddaBelly:
No your not missing anything...We are just trying to figure out why it was lost with the newer 3.70 roms. Im going to flash an older rom just to see what it gets me. Will report back.
