Ah I wasn't aware of that. I watch his github and saw the 02 DEC commits, but didn't think anything about it. I had sent a tweet to deca and he suggested following hotaru's fork for now.

Anyway, I would use what people bake into their ROMs for now vs. the ones in the first post on this thread since 11/18 is outdated in our terms :)

Here's a signed zip of the Dec 2 commits. I didn't do any of the work. Decad3nce did the work. The zip was taken from Jaybob's rom thread and was signed using Regaw's zip signer.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Is this the one that reverts camera changes and drains the battery more?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] GeezyAF:
I got an error trying to flash this in recovery.

Don't remember what it was, lol. Some about verification, I believe.

Anyone else is welcome to try.

Wouldn't want this if it drains my battery though, I already only get 15 hours.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
If there's no verification, it's probably not correctly signed
[Hero CDMA Android Development] misfit0313:
I believe this has the latest github commits. Just wanted to share for those who don't have access to a pc. Testing it out now. Was going through flash withdrawals and needed a fix.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
That's not proven. That's just from lazy testing. More than likely it was some rogue app or something that caused the drain. Who knows. Didn't bother putting it through "heavy" tests.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Ok, just wondering :D

So probably ;) I think jaybob acknowledged it as well

Is this actually a full kernel our just an update to the one jaybob cooked? That may be the flash error... I used it ok but I have the rom with the kernel built in.

Deca? Clarify please? Won't really matter to me cuz I use jaybob red, but if this isn't the full kernel it would be silly to have people flash it.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
I don't see how a kernel coudn't be "full". It's either there, or not.

The flash error stems from bad or lack of signing on the zip package.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Verification error is probably due to incorrect signing

Sent from the XDA App on my FroYoed Sprint Hero...so forgive my inevitable typos :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Just to clarify from my perspective:

The kernel included in the 05DEC ROM builds is built from Decad3nce github source through the 25-November commits (last commit - de5c404...).

The kernel update I posted separately with the 05DEC ROM builds includes commits through 02-December (last commit - 953e683...).

At the time of posting, I had not done enough testing to determine whether there appeared to be any significant (for me) differences in performance and/or battery life. Since that time, I have run the 02-DEC commits for a couple of days and it does not appear (to me) that there is a significant difference in performance or battery consumption.

<personal rant>

Net net, I would extend the point that Decad3nce made, and say that a lot of the statements bandied about regarding performance, battery consumption, etc. are not based on well grounded testing, nor performed with any significant degree of engineering discipline. Not trying to offend or make a value judgment, just my personal observation coming from a background of real-time system design as well as performance engineering of systems/networks. Unfortunately, this background makes me easily triggered in a negative way by obviously subjective assessments represented as fact based assertions of good/better/best without measurable, objective criteria and testing standards. For the most part, there are too many variables, too little control, and insufficient understanding of the system components to take many of these statements seriously. A better indicator may actually be the cumulative subjective impressions of a reasonably large and diverse sampling of users. This would at least provide reasonably grounded empirical evidence, although this too is quite subject to influence by personal beliefs and expectations. As the Rock Man said "The thing is you see what you want to see and you hear what you want to hear. You dig?"

How to Remove the UnCapped Kernel?

Hi All:

I have been loving this kernel using it with CM6.0 on my little ol' Hero. Thank you DEC and Impaler and everyone else for your great support! But I now want to go ahead and flash CM6.1, and I'd like to try it without the UncappedKernel. Can anyone step me through this? Thanks in advance!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
nand, flash rom, flash gapps, flash kernel, flash tweak, reboot.

sent from my hero, which no longer sucks ass
[Hero CDMA Android Development] i@jim:
This sounds great. But what I want is the CM6.1 ROM and its native kernel. When I flash 6.1, will it overwrite my current (UnCapped) Kernel? If so, that's what I want.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Yes it will, but decas is more upstream and more stable, he said so himself, but hey try it out both ways see what you think.

sent from my hero, which no longer sucks ass
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andygu3:
Yes, if you want an uncapped kernel again, you will have to flash it again. Otherwise once you flash 6.1, you will have the stock kernel
[Hero CDMA Android Development] i@jim:
As usual, you guys are amazing. Why don't we all get together and start our own phone company and kick these goons from T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon, AT&T to da kurb?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] evilvoice:
Decad3nce, I am trying to create my environment, but when I get to the export the cross compiling toolchain, the command seems to be cut off after eabi-. I loooked in the folder, and is it supposed to be eabi-run? Or is it supposed to just trail off after the -?

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
It's supposed to trail off :P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] user7618:
Why would I want to start a phone company? I hardly ever use my Hero as a phone. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Without the kernel, just flash the rom, it will override and go to the default kernel. And no problem :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Lol, let's do it :p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] evilvoice:
Hey Deca, Im looking at compiling a kernel and wanted to know if I compile it tonight, and something is changed in the future, what command do I need to run to update what I have on my computer (to ensure that I have an updated source that I am building the kernel from)? Do I need to repo sync the CM source and also git your kernel source? or...what?

Also, kind of a side note. I see we are using CM froyo source and also your htc kernel source. I know your last stable kernel runs on a eclair rom. Will this stay true with using the froyo source? Basically I am asking if this is how you made your stable #43 kernel because it works great on my 2.1.

Thanks, and sorry for the questions.

UncappedKernel CFS #43 768mhz

Cheers.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MikeFalcor:
Two Qs

Hi there. Excellent work! I look forward to testing out the new kernel, however, I do have a couple questions for you:

1st off, I just updated to CM6 (12/06/2010) Stable. I assume that your kernel will work regardless of frequency displayed on the DL link (i.e. 691/768 MHz). However, in case my assumption is completely incorrect, which kernel would be best suited for a Droid 1 on CM6 as noted above?

2nd, and lastly, in case you are about to answer the above question with 'Since CM6 is capped at 691 MHz, you should use the 691 MHz kernel.' - Can you mirror the 691 MHz kernel like you did with the 768? :)

Thanks again for you impeccable work.

MF

Edit: If you LIKE, I can offer up a mirror on my server if you like... If so, just archive all the different versions (named accordingly) into one zip file and I will throw it on my host for you and provide the links. Up to you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] BlaqkAudio:
These aren't made for the D1. You're going to need to get a D1 kernel
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
You would add my repository as the upstream

git remote add upstream <git address>

Then you'd either git pull, or you would fetch upstream

git fetch upstream

and git merge.

There's not froyo kernel source. That would be .32, and I have yet to get that to boot.

This kernel would not run on a Droid 1. It's configured for the msm7600 chipset as well as the drivers associated with the Hero CDMA.

I'll be incapable of mirroring the kernels at this moment because I do not have access to my dev box.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
Just to clarify: Since I'm using jaybob413's CM6 builds (currently using the newest 08-DEC), there is no reason for me to flash what's in the OP, correct? I used to use CFS #43. And the decamod battery tweak will work the same as before?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
Yep. 10char
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
Thanks! :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
Sup deca just wanted to say thanks again for all your hard work(and all the others of course who also worked really hard) with these amazing kernels. Im having a great experience with the 11/18 kernel and stable 6.1. I believe my hero is at its peak finally and right where it will die once dec 14th comes around for my upgrade. #43 kernel + CM6.1 stable my hero will die/retire 12/14/10 a happy phone dude. :D

[Hero CDMA Android Development] chefthomas99:
what are your settings using SetCpu? The battery life is good with it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I use screen on: 768-681 screen off 324-245. My battery life is superlative, and I hardly use any power with the screen off but if you want your battery to drain less with the screen on then I would put screen on settings at 768-480. I just have it clocked so high because I'm willing to lose some battery with the screen on since I know that with the screen off I wont lose anything. Let me know if this helps or if you want to know anything else!

Sent from my HTC Hero running froyo: take that, Sprint!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mdsj:
I just want to understand, if you don't use setcpu than flashing the stable kernel #9 doesn't really do anything? Or you just need it to tweak the speed??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] edisonalvarez:
Please excuse the noob question but why do we need to run setcpu or collin tweak after using uncapped kernel?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Read post #2 and I get this

# echo "NORMALIZED_SLEEPER" > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features

cannot create /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features: permission denied
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
If you don't use set cpu (or another cpu modifier) after flashing this kernel than there is no point to flashing it as you need set cpu to actually overclock.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mdsj:
Gotcha thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] revcp:
Instead of using one of the two collins defaults, can't it be set specifically in the same way as SetCPU? Also, does SetCPU bring things down progressively when battery starts to get low?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yes, set cpu can be programed to lower frequencies as the battery gets lower, and IMO, it is better and more customizable than collin's battery tweak. And it's faster :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mdsj:
Well I used over clock widget and after I tweaked the cpu it caused my phone to reboot constantly. Luckily I did a nand before i installed that and I just restored back. I had the screen on settins set 748 - 348 and the off screen at 348-248.

Could the settings have been the problem or is overclock widget just not good to use?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Your phone is probably one that can't handle frequencies higher than 710 or 687. Some phones just won't run at higher frequencies.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
remount, then mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug

Epic is just so much better IMHO, especially with hardware :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xDragod:
EVO has absolutely solid hardware. HTC uses better materials and the EVO has better support in almost every way. Plus a kickstand for movies on that gorgeous 4.3" screen? EVO is just awesome.

Epic does have the keyboard, which I envy, but is also why I'm excited to see what the Knight is. ;) Assuming the Knight is an EVO with a keyboard, there's absolutely no reason to even consider the Epic.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Bah. Epic is much better :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] evilvoice:
The only thing that worries me about the Knight is that I did not see a front facing camera and without that it wont be entirely "hands down" the best android device on the market for everyone. Without the front facing camera, I will probably still purchase it, but there are people out there who will not.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xDragod:
I agree... It's kind of a disappointment, but at the same time, it's more of a luxury feature. I think I still want the EVO, but I'm kind of worried that I'll buy it and the EVO 2 will come out and make me all jealous again. :(

I love the 4.3" of the EVO. I'd be holding one right now if I weren't a poor college student. :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hotaru:
anything with an extra monthly fee for the same service will never be that. is the evo really worth $240+tax more than the incredible or desire cdma for people who live where the closest sprint 4g will be over 500 miles away until at least 2012?

Not at all ;) No 4g= stupid, bloated charges from Sprint

Guys....I had the hero and I have had my evo for about a month....its outstanding....I checked out the epic....and imho, the evo is second to none....

Sent from my froyo using the xda app
[Hero CDMA Android Development] evilvoice:
Im in 4g coverage quite a bit, so yes $240 is affordable - furthermore...where is this 240 figure coming from? Is it from $10 X 24 months? Well, for one that is a terrible argument considering that most of the subscribers on Sprint are eligible for Premier Rewards which entitles the primary line to get a new phone every year (which is what I am utilizing)...so technically, it is a $120 charge...and actually, (going on primary line getting the Evo) if you have a company discount of say 25%, it is really $90. Remember, not everyones situation is the same, and posting about a $240 charge for you, is not the same as a $90 charge for me.

Also, how is that the same service? If you dont pay $10/mo, you dont get 4g on Sprint. There is not a phone that gets 4g without a $10/mo charge...so how is that the same service? or are you talking apples and oranges and comparing a data charge with call service?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Vandelay007:
I activated my evo via sprint chat, and although I knew about the $10/ mo fee, they never mentioned it so I acted 'surprised' when my bill came in and sprint gave me a $10/mo credit for 6 months because their agent never mentioned it in the chat....I didn't even ask for it....and I live in Boston and get great 4G coverage....

[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Well, I'm glad I've been able to, due to the help you guys have given me :) And I appreciate it very much.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hotaru:
company discounts only apply to the base price of your plan, not to add-ons. sprint recently changed that. and yes, there are people raising hell about it.

also, even if you'll be eligible for an upgrade in one year, you still have to extend your contract to two years from now to get the discount on the evo, so you're still stuck with the 4g fee even if your next phone isn't a 4g-capable.

i don't get 4g service, whether i pay for it or not. the closest sprint 4g service to where i live is over 500 miles away, and sprint has made it clear that they don't plan on having 4g any closer to here until at least 2012.

Edit: You said you flashed a new kernel, right? Since flashing it, have you recondigurex the batt tweak? I think you need to when you flash a new kernel. I know you need to when you flash a new rom, as the kernel changes, so maybe that's the issue.

I mean is your battery fully charged. Batt-tweak steps down cpu speed as the battery depletes. Also, run through the batt-cfg on the emulator again. Make sure you have it set and that the settings took. I've ran into that once or twice. :)
