+1 Going to try again.

EDIT: I had to advance restore boot and reinstall hydra v1.0 to get wireless to connect. Uninstalled setcpu, wiped cache and tried flashing kernel 3 again and it never goes past the splash screen. :( Adb is broke on kernel 2 (for me) and kernel 3 doesn't boot.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] opengeo:
kernal 3 stuck at flash screen for me as well. :(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] m52power:
SO kernel #3 should have more performance than #2 but since we're using 25mv more less battery effecient?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DeaconBoogie:
I am lead to believe that the higher voltage only comes into play as the clock speed goes above stock. It seems logical that it would scale as well, but I am not 100% sure.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] m52power:
Just tried #3 and it too is not getting past the splash screen. Putting #2 back on....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] m52power:
Update: #2 now refuses to boot, tried the STOCK htc kernel and it also refuses to boot! GRR. Trying to reflash from my nandroid backup now....

EDIT: Once again nandroid saves the day back up and running with kernel #2.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rfarrah:
SetCPU was causing this for me. I had to use the method above in order to uninstall the app then boot normally in order to start over.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] execute_method:
Does your Kernel incorporate BFS or CFS?

BTW great work, runs super stable and is FAST FAST FAST. Battery life so far is great (kernel #2), I unplugged 2 nights ago around 10:00PM and @ 5:00PM yesterday, I still had 15% battery. 19HRS!!!! Average-Heavy use from 6:00AM-5:00PM, lots of calls,texts, moderate browsing.

1500maH RHOD160 battery

See my sig for other infos.

Installed #3 last night, it's faster/snappier.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] LTL11:
If we go from #2 to #3 do we have to wipe our battery stats again or is that just with a new rom flash?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanzer:
Im not sure why everyone keeps pushing this. In a discussion somewhere else we already determined that this doesn't do anything.

Charging your battery to full will reset the battery ranges in the OS automatically..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I tried uninstalling SetCPU and reinstalling #3 and it still wouldn't boot passed the splash screen.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
Are the cpu optimizations unique to your kernel at this point? How are they different than the governor options in Set CPU?

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mimpoca:
OMG!!! I LOVE #3!!!

It is just as unstable for me as #2 at 1.19GHz (I guess this speed is a no-go for me), however, it gives me an incredible performance boost at 1.15GHz.

With #2 at 1.15GHz in performance mode, I get a score around 1440 in Quandrant, with #3 under same conditions, I get around 1530!!! The highest I got was 1609 (see image)..I didn't even think that was possible.

I don't know if there is anything that possibly could be done to make it run stable at 1.19GHz, but I am getting to a point where I don't really care any more...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlss:
That's really a terrific question marc. The only reason I've been using SetCPU on the 1.19 kernels is that speed sends me into random reboots (with #3, which is better than the boot loops on the prior version!) So, like you, i'm wondering if SetCPU is doing more harm than good the way the OP has built #3.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rulevoid:
I cant find the changelog for #3, does anyone know where it is located? Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] opengeo:
I really don't get how some people are successfully running #3, while others aren't. I just tried again and can't get past the splash screen.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlss:
Yes. It's in post #2 in the thread:

Changelog

Kernel #3

- Updated for stability

- Introduced the new 'BFQ' I/O scheduler!

- Still supporting the 'CFQ' I/O scheduler

- Using the 'BFQ' I/O scheduler by default

- Benchmark increases

- Undervolted the frequencies that can be

- Pumpin 25 more volts to get the highest speeds stabler

- Updated configurations

- Much much more I won't even bother explaining
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlss:
I can run up to about 1.15. Above that I bootloop. Have with hydra and with king (even with #3 with the additional 25mV).

Comes down to minor differences in our phones. Mass manufacturing like this means the phones come off the line within a tolerance range. You and I are unlucky enough to be on the bad side of that range :p

Perhaps a Kernel #4 with another 25mV bump at 1.19 for those of us who get jammed up king? I'll make it worth your while... :D

jlss said:

Well I'm new to Android and this is my first smart phone. I just rooted and I'm thinking of flashing a custom ROM because I'm afraid that if I accept the OTA update I will lose the ability to root. From what I've seen here this kernel looks killer. I think I'll wait for Skyraider 3.0 and then use this kernel but maybe with no oc, or perhaps I should say attempt it since it will be my first flash on the phone ;)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jlss:
If you accept the OTA you will; however, if you ran unrevoked's forever NAND flash you can just flash a recovery and be back up and running. Theoretically.

As far as king's kernels I hope I didn't alarm you. Just was stating that - for me and others - our DINCs can't handle the top-end 1.19 clock speed. But it works flawlessly a 1.15 or so, with exceptional performance and battery life. Best OC kernel in the community in my opinion.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] egeorgia:
any help out there for those of us who can't get #3 to get past the splash screen? I deleted set CPU and still had no luck.

Have you tried a nandroid restore?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] m52power:
Can the people who are successfully running kernel #3 please post their phone stats? Rom, radio, etc...

I'm on skyraider 2.5.2 and 2.15 radio (latest). I can run hydra kernels, kingx #1 and #2 but NOT #3. Furthermore, after I install #3 I cannot get #2, hydra, or even the stock htc kernel to work without running a nandroid restore.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] hazard666:
The kernel is great but my phone is starting to piss me off. I don't know if I got one with a processor that can handle less stress or what the case is but my quadrant scores blow (got 1230 at 1.15) and even with this kernel, I can't run stable at 1.15 (froze and went into reboot cycle after quadrant). I'm running SkyRaider Sense 2.5.2 although scores don't change drastically from rom to rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] IShootPixels:
As much as I'd like to use 3, I gave up. The trouble I had with Seismic (however coincidental) and the weird thing with not having 3g, just made it unwise for me.

I tried Sky Raider Vanilla and just didn't like it. Maybe its because this is my first Android phone and I've never known anything other than Sense, but I didn't see the appeal personally. So after totally borking my phone last night with 3 and trying Vanilla, I just went and had to reinstall Sky Raider Sense and a finally back to running my phone like it was in my Sig.. What a process.

Lesson learned. Don't always rush to be one of the first. Had I seen so many varying issues then I probably would have waited. It seems that its 50/50 working vs. not.

Oh, and with all of that said, I still love kernel #2. It works fine for me and since it helps with the battery and I can OC to 1.15 still, I'll keep using it.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] elborak:
That's to be expected: no two processors will have exactly the same clock headroom, and some will require overvolting to oc while others won't.

Mine can't handle 1.15 even with ov, but 1.113 is solid.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] IShootPixels:
This is where I was last night, although I got passed the Splash screen, it rebooted a few times. I couldn't get #2 to work right after and for some reason even my nand wasn't right. I just gave up and started over. My specs are in my sig, but they sound similar to yours.

I have the same setup as you do, all kernels work for me and I can switch between them with no problems.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanheng:
This one is much more stable than #2. The touch response is faster and no reboots. I am using the modified 8/1 ota leak. Battery seems the same been using alot of text and browsing forums and emails from 8 til 12 and still 80%	battery I guess thats good.

Thanks for thesr kernels.

I'm basically running the same as you with Setcpu on conservative 111.3 and screen off and temp throttled down. No issues whatsoever, installed flawlessly. Heard some really good batt stats on #3 but I just installed so no help here.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] drkramm:
2.2 skyraider 2.15 radio s-off all kings kernels worked fine running 3 now at at 1.113 can hit 1.152 but becomes unstable ... adb is fine along with wireless teather .... works great in fact
[Droid Incredible Android Development] quagmire0:
Add me to the list that #3 isn't working for. SkyRaider 2.5.2, s-off, newest radio. Also never overclocked. Running a restore now. #2 Seemed to work fine for me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
You can do a nandroid advanced restore of ONLY /boot and it'll boot back up. You'll probably want to flash the kernel you want to use immediately after, so that it installs the correct wireless module. If not, wireless will probably not work since restoring boot doesn't restore the matching module.

EDIT: No boot for #3; 8/1 leak, 2.15 radio, s-off.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pyrofool:
Skyraider 2.5.2, radio 2.15

I just flashed #3 last night and this morning I could not access the sd card from the phone or through usb. Flashed back to nandroid and it works. Going back to #2 for now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rigman:
See my signature line below for my setup. I was on #2 and didn't have any problems installing #3. I'm running setcpu st 1113 and ondemand (except it seems to change back to conservative each time I reboot. )

Unless the apps are periodically refreshing (like a weather app doing periodic downloads), dormant apps use exactly 0 battery.

Task killers are fine for killing the occasional rogue process, but using them to regularly kill dormant tasks is pointless and accomplishes nothing.

Tried #3 but started seeing the typical (for me) battery loss right away. Down to 80% within an hour and a half with light use. This while using SetCPU on Conservative and clocking it way down when the screen was inactive.

Running #3 since yesterday morning with no issues. Upgraded from #2. I am not currently overclocking, but using for the battery saving. I didn't see an improvement with #1 or #2, but #3 seems to be giving me pretty good battery saving so far.

Since this kernel is optimized for cpu usage on demand I'm just wondering if setting cpu on demand governing options in setcpu might be causing some crashes.

I went back to hydra's v1.0 ocuv 1.115GHz and after finally setting up a SetCPU profile for screen off (460MHz max), I'm amazed at the battery life! Granted, I used the phone kind of light today (a little over an hour awake), while at work, but it's been off charge for over 10 hours and still has 87% battery left (2150mah battery) and my adb and adb wireless work fine!

I'll try King's next one.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] DannyMeercat:
Is it just me or is #3 killing everyone else's battery ultra quick. I had #2 running oc 1.2ghz for three days and my battery life was excellent. I had a setCPU screen off powersave profile. Now with #3 I have the same screen off profile plus battery profiles for 1.15ghz under 75% and 1.13 under 50%. My battery completely discharges in like 5 hours of normal to light use. Is the 25mv for higher clock speeds killing my battery?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBert:
Are the 1, 2, and 3 Kernal zips all the same or does 3 contain all that 1 and 2 do?

I guess my real question is do I need to install 1, 2, then 3 or just 3 to have all the features?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanzer:
Could be that.. but I really think it's hard to tell over one day what the change in battery life is. Usage varies, the wireless power varies depending on where you are and how you store your phone (in your pocket vs on your desk) and also the battery might not charge the the exact same level as last time.. it's really hard to tell.

I think it would be better if we would all stop being so nitpicky about every update unless you have a good amount of data to backup the claim.

That being said, my phone is draining a bit faster today, but that is definitely because I'm working from my room today and I barely get a signal.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hawkye:
I just updated to #3 about 3hrs ago. It seems a lot better with battery life than the first two. My quad score is about the same at 1250. I am using the leaked 2.2 ROM. I have SetCPU at 1152 max and 245 min OnDemand with one profile screen off with a 499 max.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SomeGuyDude:
Check what your CPU use is. If something's spiking your use, it's gonna kill your battery since this one's sucking a little more power at higher speeds.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TylerD004:
Do I have to keep SetCPU open at all times for the Conservative Power Setting to continue to work?

If so, should I add that program to the Ignore list in my Task Killing Program?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cooksalot:
Well I finally jumped in and flashed the #2 kernal. All I can say is WOW! I always got 23 + hours with my phone It's been up 24hours 43minutes, and it says it still has 41% charge! I just got off the phone after a talk a thon with my mom too!:D That alone would kill my MotoQ before. When I got my incredible it would take it down a considerable amount too. It's been very stable set to 1113 max conservative and 652 powersave when screen off . Only glitch was when I tried to set it for performance. Did not like that one. Oh, and I'm running on aiccucs 3.2 ROM.

Thanks KingKlick!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JoeyBert:
Do I have to install 1, 2, and 3? or can I just install 3 to get all features?

[Droid Incredible Android Development] seanzer:
For those of you that were trying to tune SetCPU's advanced parameters.. I found this article that shows some results for servers..

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-cpufreq-3/index.html

Check it out! I'm trying out 98% for up threshold and 95% for down threshold.. I have not noticed any differences in speed and the power consumption is just barely lower..

Side note, no, you don't need to flash all three of them..

I installed kernel 3 last night, and initially had it overclocked to 1.15, this morning I clocked it back down to stock settings. My phone has been off the charger for 11.5 hours, and is sitting at 50%. This is an incredible improvement.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ZFriedenreich:
I flashed kernel #3 last night over the undervolted stock speed hydra kernel. I had no issues flashing it, but after about 10 minutes of use, the screen went black except for the notification bar and the phone froze up. I flashed back to the hydra kernel and the phone runs great again. Anyone know why this could have happened with kernel #3 and what I could do to solve the issue?

Is there any reason to use this kernel if you don't plan on overclocking? My gf has my old incredible which is rooted and I'm sure she would like some better battery life, but is satisfied with speed already on there. Currently the phone is on SkyRaider Sense 2.5.2. Any input guys?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] HeyItsLou:
Well because of the development put into this kernel it inherently promotes better battery life at even the stock speed. If you use a custom kernel such as this one or hydra in conjunction with SetCPU you can really optimize the battery life on the Incredible. I have SetCPU underclock the processor down to 245 mhz while the screen is off no need to be wasting power while it isn't really doing much but syncing all of my social networking services and email.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 760hacker:
Yes in my opinion as it will likely improve battery life among other enhancements.
