Giving this ROM a shot now. Hope to see some improved battery life since I'm on it all day... (My friends think I'm weird for always using my phone...)

ABD works

FPS 52 STD 9.03

Linpack 22.855//24.076//26.818//26.059//26.631 (5 runs)

Quadrant 953 :(

Overall seems very snappy, and OC works right out of the... box? zip file? flash? whatever...

Edit: just realized my setup wasnt set to performance. Will update scores tomorrow.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Djay45:
I hadn't tested ADB until I read this. I got device not found error. I flashed the Fresh 3.1.0.1 stock kernel over version 6 king. ADB worked. Then I flashed king v6 over that again and ADB works now. I was dreading having to wipe to get ADB working lol. Although I only listed contents of my sdcard and made sure root worked.
[EVO 4G Android Development] OneStepAhead:
so from my testing, it appears "Power Saving Mode" locks the processor to the lowest speed/voltage at all times? And "Conservative" scales accordingly, but ramps up slower than "On Demand". is that correct? would be nice to get some clarification as to what each mode actually does. thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] kingklick:
I'll do a write up on each CPU governor tomorrow, as well as add the new Interactive Governor
[EVO 4G Android Development] sfld:
is cpu gov a app i need to download? or does it do this in the backround?

I havent OCD yet and my rom is running fast with your kernel. thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Quiksmage:
Are these settings for SetCPU or something else entirely that is going over my head?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kingklick:
no problem

the governors are built into my kernel and can be selected by using SetCPU :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] kingklick:
Can I get a tester or 2 please? working on some things I want to check....

No PMs please
[EVO 4G Android Development] nugzo:
what do you need?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kingklick:
a tester for audio tweaks and a couple other things......

Hey King, how close are you to being able to get yourself an Evo?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nugzo:
I have a few minutes before hitting the sack. I can help
[EVO 4G Android Development] kingklick:
it will be a little.

I am implementing the code, then I still need to compile on this 1Ghz lappy lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] lucidvtec:
i can help as well
[EVO 4G Android Development] nugzo:
well its 3:30 here, i gotta be at work at 8, so if its not ready maybe u should grab someone else. If it's something you dont need an answer on right away, u can pm me the link and i'll test and let you know in the morn. especially if its some higher oc freqs :p

edit.. look at the tags, i told ya they would start changing. Wait till tomorrow night!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] kingklick:
no worries.

just noticed most of the code is already in the kernel by HTC...

ill keep ya all posted
[EVO 4G Android Development] Djay45:
I'll be awake a while if you still need a tester.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nugzo:
If its something important i'll chill a little longer for ya.

Hey I just switched over to android when the Evo came out. I have damaged 3.5 running with froyo. I am new to these kernels. Is this something I can just install on top of my custom roms and also do I install (flash) it the same way i install a custom rom or radio? Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wings9130:
Also, I don't need to flash my phone again to install a kernel do I? I installed this rom a few days ago.
[EVO 4G Android Development] saywhat4118:
Yup you flash it the same normal way, like the way you flashed damage 3.5 and you dont have to wipe. just make a nandroid backup first so in case something goes wrong, you can always go back and restore your previous setup.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nemesys504:
Hey king, not sure if you seen this > http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=693375 but seems like same development on the n1 but seems to get alot more help from other devs. Also > http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7565706&postcount=3841. Hope this helps further your development. Love your work.

I tried v5 and it did not work.. Anyone try 6? I would love to use this with cm nightly
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vandam500:
Quick Question: You guys been getting better battery life with your SetCPU at On Demand or Conservative? I flashed kernel 6 last night and will test it today. Want to set it but not really sure to which of the 2.

Thank You for all your time will be interested to see how the battery last. The kernels real feel is very snappy. I didn't wipe anything just installed. With that said wiping couldn't hurt I just didn't do it. Thanks Again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] hecklbrg:
Did 2x wipe of Cache/Dalvik and flashed on a 2.2 Stock Rooted Odexed ROM -- installation went smoothly. I previously was running Netarchy's 4.0.3a Kernel.

Setup SetCPU -- it does seem to be scaling properly on Conservative, there is no option to underclock to 128.

ADB recognized my phone and I tried the wimax_mtd command and reboot and both worked.

Going to test the battery today!
[EVO 4G Android Development] eniamg02:
Anyone know the lowest I can set uv in set cpu?

Edit: silly me 245 is lowest option.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigj225:
Will 128hz be an option to underclock any time soon?????
[EVO 4G Android Development] kyleblakepeters:
I am using the conservative governor and I am noticing that the cpu is not ramping down as needed, but rather sitting at the highest speed dictated by my profiles.

Sent from my Evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjmontan:
Zone, are you setting it to ondemand or conservative..
[EVO 4G Android Development] HondaCop:
Ok, I have been following this thread very closely and I think it's time for me to finally give it a test run. But before I do so, let me make sure of something.

1. Do I need to use SetCPU or can I use the Overclock Widget?

2. If answer to #1 is yes, do I need to use the conservative governor?

3. If answer to #1 is yes, do I still need to create a setcpu.txt file?

Once I get answers on these questions, I think will be ready to give this a test run. Currently, I am running Fresh 3.1.0.1 on Netarchy's 4.0.3a kernel alongside Juice Defender/Ultimate Juice and I'm getting an average of 12-14hrs on moderate to heavy use. Juice Defender really helps a ton with battery life. But I think that with King's kernel, I might be able to squeeze even more time out of my battery. Thanks for the help guys and thanks King for all your work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kyleblakepeters:
1. I have only used setcpu, but don't see why the widget wouldn't work.

2. Wait on king's writeup of the governors to figure what you should use.

3. No need for the txt file.

[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
I'm on conservative and it appears to be ramping up and down as expected. Oh but wait, when I run quadrant I always set the CPU to performance.

[EVO 4G Android Development] hecklbrg:
I do notice that my signal strength for my wifi network isn't near as good as when I was using Netarchy's 4.0.3a kernel.

Still observing the battery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kyleblakepeters:
A lot of us are experiencing issues with the governor. Hopefully this is fixed with #7.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nugzo:
Went to bed at 4:30-fully charged. It's 9:30 now and at 81% 5 hours of no calls, no nothing and lose 19%. This seems like nothing special in the battery department to me, i'll keep playing, keep changing settings and see what happens. - ver 6. was on conservative.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Noxious Ninja:
Flashed #6 on top of netarchy-toastmod 4.0.3a, seems to be working alright so far. It would be nice to underclock to 128, though - the lowest this kernal will go is 245.
[EVO 4G Android Development] yamaford:
I'm still on track for pulling 8 hours of Pandora but last night I did a full charge before bed and unplugged it to see what happens with no load. Well 8 hours of no load and I woke up to see 55%. That was on#5 and I use oc widget so I am stuck with whatever king has a default. Ill do the same test tonight for#6.
[EVO 4G Android Development] meatgel:
are you guyz wiping your battery stats when you flash the kernel? I'm having better battery life with this, but I always wipe my battery stats when I flash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jsimon9633:
No I didnt, I dont have a clear understanding of what battery stats wipe does. can you explain?

does it wipe the "calibration" attempts if you ahve tried to do those?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nugzo:
Governor working fine here. or appears to be. Rams up and down as i would expect.

Hope not. Problems.

Yup they will if they use it. 128 is to low. To each his own though
[EVO 4G Android Development] driguez:
Ver 6 seems to not be as good w battery. Down to 82% in 2 1/2 hours. No OC, light usage.

Battery Life

For those who keep posting on battery life, My friend has a completeley stock Evo not rooted and with Froyo update and his phone is very laggy and battery keeps dying faster than what you are posting so hang in there and keep trying kernels till you find the one that suits your needs remember YOU are ROOTED and have a choice of many KERNEL options so be grateful. :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vandam500:
Yeah it definitely has some type of problem, at least the conservative governor. I have yet to try On Demand.
[EVO 4G Android Development] meatgel:
I read about doing it here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Troubleshooting (scroll down to batter recalibration)

I always do it when I change or update ROMs and kernels. Here's the text:

"Battery recalibration

If you're experiencing higher than normal battery drain, try the following:

1. Charge the phone to full battery; let it keep charging until the battery says it is fully charged. Do not just wait until the light is green, it isn't always fully charged, causing a lot of inaccuracies. (You can check by going to: Settings -> About Phone -> Status -> Battery Level = Full.)

2. Boot to recovery mode and go to console (or adb shell) and type:

mount -a

rm /data/system/batterystats.bin

NOTE: Newer Amon_Ra and ClockworkMod recoveries have an option to delete the battery stats, do this in place of the console commands above.

NOTE: To have the most accurate of battery stats, reboot the phone immediately after wiping the battery stats and wait for CM to boot completely to the desktop. Once your entire boot is done and you have full access to the phone, go ahead and pull the charger and continue with this troubleshooter.

1. Do not charge the phone until after draining the battery completely, resulting in it automatically shutting off.

2. Recharge the phone completely and then use as you normally would."

Wtf r u talking about? Be grateful? I believe each and everyone of us are in many ways. If u have not noticed, if there are bugs in new releases all we are doing is reporting them. Thanks for the pep talk, we know we have choices now stfu.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vandam500:
I agree +1
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
As of right now, netarchy has the best, most reliable, and conservative kernel on xda, my opinion. I'm able to get almost 18hrs with moderate use out of it OC of course and more then 10hrs of heavy use with OC.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
I'm using the fat 3500 battery with kernel number 6 and I'm definitely not seeing the battery life that I would expect. Definitely ticking down faster than it should.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dodgeboy:
I'm seeing the most significant battery improvement when the phone is off with #3. There is a second or two upon power up where the phone feels laggy, but it's tolerable. The future releases (I've only tried #4 and #5) don't provide as much battery savings for me, but they are significantly faster on power-up.

I'm sticking with #3, because I don't mind the slow power-up if it saves that much battery. I just wish ADB worked with it.

I don't OC, so none of that matters to me... The sole purpose of this for me is battery savings.

[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Think Im going back to one of Hero's kernels for now. His kernels are beast with the battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cowfodder:
For those having issues with conservative not scaling back down, check your settings under the advanced tab in setcpu. Specifically, make sure that Freq Step is not set to zero. This is the percentage your cpu scales by. I tried 1%, and it seemed to take forever to scale back down. I leave mine at the default 5% and it works fine now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] OneStepAhead:
you can see on the image when I installed #6. Went to sleep with battery at 66%, awoke 7 hours later with battery at 63%. ding ding ding! we have a winner! :D have the "power save" profile @ 460/245 set to activate when the screen is off. "conservative" profile all other times @ 998/245. been having great results since the first release. I'm running Fresh 3.1.0.1. Keep up the good work! significantly better results then i ever got with stock or netarchy's kernel. never tried hero's kernel, didn't even know it existed.

Should also point out it was connected to Wifi. 3G/Bluetooth were disabled. Background data is on and transferring stuff throughout the night.

Push mail, and pulls every hour. Also Titanium backup does a complete backup at 3:00am too. So all that stuff and only a 3% drop!

[EVO 4G Android Development] Mayonesa:
i have always had good drain when the screen is off with any kernal i use. ( when the screen is off) i once had it where it didnt drain at all.. it staid at 100 % of higher 90s for hours since i didnt use the phone much then.

what helps with that is that i run task killer and cleaner to kill apps when the screen is off. i always set the outkill option

the benefit would be when the phone is in use.. thats where it changes from time to time depending on the kernel i run at the time.

[EVO 4G Android Development] yamaford:
Why does anyone expect the battery to last longer when your not using the phone.the best results are going too be seen by people that use it the most. I'm sure if I turned ask the update off and never powered up the screen and set cpu to 254 then it would last forever, but then I might as well go back to my nextel.

Not necessarily. I wouldn't say CM6 gets superior battery life to a sense rom.

LOL...Please enlighten me on how I am doing it wrong? I can't wait to hear this one. Wiped, reset battery stats, even turned off phone and did the unplug/replug 10 x's trick. I'm not making up information...CM6 battery life sucked for me and I'm pretty sure I did "everything right".
[EVO 4G Android Development] driguez:
Bah... lies! ;) Its still too early for my spanish ass meng lol... Back to the kernAl talk
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
battery life will obviously ALWAYS depend on usage. Aside from that, calibrating the batteries in the way you did is the only way to achieve better results.

He obviously isn't quite sure :/ as there is no "correct way" to run a rom to achieve the best battery results.

I ran CM6 all through the first month of nightlies, and although battery wasn't horrible, I'm able to achieve much better results with 2.2 sense roms.

Oh and I know what I'm doing :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] cowfodder:
Best quadrant yet for me
[EVO 4G Android Development] Just_s:
Not sure why, but I have been getting great battery since King#1, though I have had decent life on several kernels. Don't know if it is something in my setup, but I am pretty certain that my strict battery conditioning ritual has something to do with it. Once I settle into a ROM/kernel, I always run this procedure and I have better luck with it every time.

Right now I am running Calkulin's EViO 1.1 with King#6. Took my phone off the charger just after midnight with battery at 82%. Turned the phone again on at 6am and it was down to 80%. Used the phone aggressively (calls, texts, a few benchmarks, youtube and pandora) through 1030am and was down to 50% (32% used in 10h 26m!).

That pace translates to approximately 30+hours of blended (periods of idle+moderate+aggressive use) battery life if charged to 100%. I'd say that is pretty damn good. I'm going to flash #7 when it comes out and then do a complete cycle test, but I imagine this will just get better.
