I flashed the new kernel today as well, and have had the same issues with the downloads. Bummer.

If it matters, Nonsensikal Froyo OC'd at 768.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Decad3nce:
I need more info guys.

Is your regular data connection working(3g browsing, etc)? Because if it is then your problem isn't kernel related.

You guys make it really difficult to troubleshoot :P
[Droid Eris Android Development] hallstevenson:
No (stupid 10 chars)
[Droid Eris Android Development] bigrob119:
Can't speak for the others but no, it was a global data issue with my phone. Tried WiFi and 3G downloads from the market, browsing and WordFeud and none of them worked.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rhoman1029:
I get email but can't download from market 3g or wifi. Don't know what other things I can't do haven't messed with much else except XDA app.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Decad3nce:
No data worked, at all? What rom?

Also, this may have been a bad flash if the libc isn't provisioning.

That sounds like a Google/Location problem. You can check by flashing other roms and seeing if market works there.

Market was down for us Sprint users in the midwest for 2 days once, call and ask.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Market works fine for me....all other data works for me....no location or gps issues and no reboots....

Edit: For those wondering I am running CELBFroyo
[Droid Eris Android Development] xmradiojunkie:
Just an update for ya. Earlier I was not able to download from the market but I could browse websites with the browser so I had an internet connection. I ended up wiping all data and dalvik and loading a fresh kaosfroyo v30 and then flashed the kernal at the same time. All is fine now at first boot from what I can tell. All my apps automatically redownloaded from the market. I then downloaded gps Status and did the gps fix and it now loads in under 5 seconds. NICE.
[Droid Eris Android Development] MJL99:
Never set it past 710 and never had any random reboots before flashing cfs kernel. Running nonsensikal blue 5.4

If I haven't rebooted the phone since my last random reboot can I still pull last_kmsg when I get home?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rhoman1029:
I'm running 4.6 nonsensikal black, had been for a week with no problems. I flashed this kernel this morning and performance and battery life seem better. Just problem with market. I never had this problem before today and it doesn't what app I try it just gets stuck downloading. I did a nand before may go back or may try new rom and reflash kernel.
[Droid Eris Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Can someone tell me if this kernel will work with droid does pink rom?

It is a rom based off Sense-able2.0 rom ...it is the only girly one I could find.

Thanks in advance

[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
My guess would be that you were running a previous version of nonsensikal with working market and you flashed your current version without wiping on top of the working version. Now by flashing the kernel it has cleared the davlik/cache causing the phone to reset up all the settings for how the phone communicates with the market. I don't think its the kernel affecting the market.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
I made that rom too lol....a long time ago. Yes this kernel should work fine for that rom. I have a similar custom rom on my wife's phone and put this kernel on it and it runs good.
[Droid Eris Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Anyway you could make me a purple one...it is for my sister and she loves purple...she like just regular sense...you can base it on whatever rom is easiest.

I would really appreciate it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
sorry....i got out of the themeing business.....
[Droid Eris Android Development] stricklerjosh:
what about your wife's rom she is running...could I get a screenshot and maybe a zip of it? Anything I need to know about the drioddoespink rom?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Well I don't want to hijack my kernel thread to talk about roms really but I basically just did a Twilight themed rom for her....it didn't and won't get released and honestly it's a little outdated at this point. I would recommend looking at metamorph themes and then use a rom that metamorph works with. But regardless of what rom you use you can flash this kernel over it...(how's that for a transition to get back on topic lol...)
[Droid Eris Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Gotcha man...I'm sorry. Thanks for your work.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rhoman1029:
Kernel is the only change I got. I didn't flash anything today but the kernel. I flashed my rom a week or more ago with full wipe. So I'm not sure how but it would seem to be either the kernel or a freak coinsidence. Either way fixable. Just wanted to report the issue.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Thank you for reporting it....I wasn't saying it isn't the kernel just wondering if wiping the davlik is causing the issue....
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rhoman1029:
Wasn't trying to sound pissed. By the way I didn't do a davlik wipe before flashing the kernel that I remember anyway. I really didn't think a kernel would only have an impact on the market but that's the only problem I've had. Like I said though, if I can fix the market, the kernel has definitely shown some improvment in my perfomance and battery. I'm going to try a full wipe in the morning and then reflash Nonsensikal 4.6 and the Kernel see if that does it. One question though if I do a nand restore do I have to wipe data first or will a nand restore wipe everything automatically?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
The script that installs the kernel wipes the davlik for you....yeah i would wipe and then restore the nand...check the market...flash the kernel again and check the market...
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rhoman1029:
Nand restored market, no problems downloading. Will flash kernel now.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DoubleByte:
Don't know what you did, but flashing this over KaosFroyo v34 has doubled my battery life. I have a 3500mah battery...3 days of moderate use and I am at 48% battery,

Awesome work. Thanks for this.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rhoman1029:
After Nand restore reflashed kernel and market problem returned. Oh well.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Romparoo:
I assume this needs to be done on all roms I (we) flash unless they use it and it is built in?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Yeah you have to reflash it if you want it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Correct, I believe a couple roms are currently using CFSv4. Check the OP page of your rom and it should say if they are using it. Other wise you do have to flash it over your current rom if you want to use it.

Nander!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
If you feel like testing something for me I would really appreciate it. This file is the same kernel CFSv4 but I changed the install script so that it doesn't clear the cache. If you feel like restoring your nand to where your market works again and try flashing this file instead it would help me narrow down whether it could be a kernel issue or an issue with wiping davlik. Downloade Here

Do not wipe anything just flash the kernel and let me know if the market works....If you don't feel like testing it its ok but it would really help me out thanks....
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rhoman1029:
I dowloaded the new one. I'll give it a try in the morning and let you know.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Thankyou I appreciate the help....
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rhoman1029:
Flashed new version of kernel this morning and no problems. So it must be something with the cache, right? Either way it worked, thanks.
[Droid Eris Android Development] bftb0:
Hi Conap/Decad3nce

I ran V4+Tazz 2.0 from Mon-Fri (9/6 - 9/10). During that time I had two unrequested kernel reboots. The first time (Thu) I was doing some text entry on a forum, and the phone slowed to a stop, and then rebooted about two minutes later. Naturally, during that time I pressed every button on the phone (but no two- or -three- button combinations, though). My phone has been rock-solid on almost every ROM I have tried - other than a very early 2.1 dev ROM which would reboot if you used Google Nav, I have never experienced a spontaneous reboot on my phone.

The second time the phone spontaneously rebooted (Fri afternoon), the phone had actually been sleeping for several hours. It was in a shirt pocket underneath a PFD (life vest), and I felt it vibrate when it rebooted. (I was kick-paddling a float tube in an alpine lake fishing for trout - I'm pretty sure I wasn't using my phone at the time, lol)

I've attached (last_kmsgs.zip) kernel logs from /proc/last_kmsg from both events; they were recovered from the immediately subsequent reboots.

I looked through them, and don't see anything immediately obvious, although the rapid cycling of the "Freezing user space processes" over the duration of the logs (~ 6 minutes) seems rather odd. No mention of any "Oops".

I had Autokiller set to "optimum" preset (40/50/60), and had setCPU (v2.0.2) running with profiles defined, but none enabled, and a default preset of 245/768, interactive governor (set on boot).

bftb0

PS I can match messages in the logs to the kernel sources to see if there are additional comments in the source code (e.g. "this shouldn't happen") that would indicate that something in particular might be a problem - let me know if you think that would help after taking a peek at the logs yourself. (I just don't see anything that sticks out like a sore thumb, but then, I don't know what a "normal" last_kmsg file should look like)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Decad3nce:
I only briefly glanced over it.. the freezing of userspace processes is not good. Could you please go over all your apps and see if something is holding a wake lock, usually it's a result of that(it doesn't let the device sleep, so the kernel instead freezes userspace processes). It may also be a result of the camera sensor, but I HIGHLY doubt it since I haven't messed with it at all, but conap may have. I'll ask him.

Otherwise, I think the second kmsg also shows the same problem throughout the log. Though what also bothers me is this:

[94126.727661] microp-i2c 0-0066: microp_jogball_brightness_set: unknown value: 1

...which seems to be causing an event spam.

Can I ask which rom you are using?
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Wired Tether

Canop/Decad3nce

I have added this new kernel to the new beta versions of my 2.1 HTC framework base ROMs (xtrROM4.5-beta and xtrSENSE4.5-beta). I have default the kernel CPU govenor to Ondemand in the init.desirec.rc file as it seems to help performance. Most users have reported both better battery and smooth/speed :D

The only issue that has come up that I thought worthy of passing on is that it does not appear to work with the modified open source Wired Tether app that is floating around the forum...

See comment #9 on what was modified in the app:

http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/issues/detail?id=21

[Droid Eris Android Development] bftb0:
I'm not sure how to tie wakelock names to the controlling process (got a URL that you can point me at?). I've attached the output of "adb cat /proc/wakelocks" in the form of an .xls spreadsheet - I note that when doing this, the above command lists 52 wakelocks and then finishes up by saying, "too many wakelocks!!!"

The ROM in use is Tazzpatriots' 2.0, corresponding ROM file is

Cyanogen_Tazz-_ou812.zip ( 67,150,685 bytes; md5 3aba10226f974f1f983935a0431ae868 )

Hope that helps. Let me know if I can be of further assistance (feel free to PM).

The wired tether apps works fine for me on my 2.2 rom with this kernel and also on a 2.1 sense based rom with my kernel on my wife's phone....I can't really look more into it as of now because I'm out of town on vacation untill the end of the week.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
I have not messed with the camera sensor at all either...
[Droid Eris Android Development] Decad3nce:
http://lwn.net/Articles/318611/

Wakelocks shows that the cam sensor was never in use at all(erm, holding a wakelock), but it may be where the problem lies(note the bug out in the last_kmsg)? Have you used the camera?

Also, /proc/wakelocks will only show wakelocks from drivers/system; this is somewhat helpful but I'm running out of hints. :S I'll have to sit down and do some brainstorming.

It's also a very similar problem I see in ninpo's thread on the gsm hero forum. We'll see if it's a CM6 thing or if its a kernel source thing, my confidence is in the former.(Since this isn't a problem in earlier versions)

IMO, i think there are some un-met dependencies with the new features in the camera/camcorder applications since we are still running an outdated s5k3e2fx camsensor. Darchstars past attempts at updating caused some kernel panics. I'll see what I can do.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Thanks for the response... I'll dig in on my side if you have already had success with a 2.1 HTC based rom...

thanks again!

I'm going to wait a few more releases to make sure issues are smoothed out before I flash it on my phone, but I wanted to chime in to say thank you guys so much for your hard work. You make owning an Eris not suck.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
I don't expect many more releases. In fact I wasn't really expecting any more at all other than getting .32, which will help stability quite a lot.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Decad3nce:
Expect a couple more releases. And we're aiming at .34(at least most of the hero(gsm/cdma) guys are.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Well then I look forward to them =p I just mean that most releases will probably in regards to stability as pertaining to bugs and not updating actual schedulers or things like that.

As for .34 that's pretty exciting.

Any chance we can get an updated link to CFS v4? When I go to the URL posted it gives me an object not found. Also, this message is posted:

ATTENTION: Wednesday, September 15. I am reorganizing the website a little bit. It's a little cluttered now, and I would like to offer hosting to ROM makers of other phones as well, which means I need to move some files around. Unfortunately, due to the way the [lazy] way the code for this site was written, doing this will also change the URLs to files, breaking any links you may have posted elsewhere. I apologize for any inconvenience, and hopefully this will be the only time this happens for the foreseeable future.

[Droid Eris Android Development] Rhoman1029:
Is it likely that my market problem will return if I flash v5? Thanks again for the earlier fix.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Well v5 will wipe the davlik/cache which is what i believe was causing your market issue. You can pull out the zimage and fastboot and push the wlan.ko. I would do a nand and flash it to see if it messes up your market. I would also try doing a nand, then from recovery wipe davlik/cache without flashing anything to see if that causes your market issue. If a davlik/cache wipe without flashing any files causes your issue I would report it in the thread of the rom your running. If v5 does cause an issue I can make another zip that won't wipe the davlik but eventually you'll have an issue if you keep changing kernels without wiping.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Rhoman1029:
I tried dalvik wipe on same ROM with the kernal version you made me. And checked market and everything is working still. May just try flashing v5 and see what happens. But dalvik may not be the cause of my problem.

[Droid Eris Android Development] bftb0:
Thought I would drop in here and make another CFS4 report since my prior report. This report is better.

I've put another 5 days on Tazz2.0+CFS4 without any significant hiccup. The only difficulty that I experienced (once) was getting the screen to unlock after a bike ride of about 1 hr. - I was using the Google "My Tracks" app (a GPS track logger). The screen was not unresponsive; instead, it would not recognize the unlock pattern before the timeout re-locked the screen. Sort of like the phone was heavily bogged down. It took me something like 3 minutes just to get my phone unlocked.

The only material difference in the configuration I used in this latest couple of days of testing (from the prior one) is that I completely eliminated setCPU from the phone. I'm not sure what that means, although it seems to suggest that using setCPU with profiles that changed the choice of governor was causing the earlier troubles.

Are there any further details about what exactly got kanged in V5? (I'll probably try it soon).

bftb0
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Yeah setcpu does not seem to work well with the interactive governer....not sure why but i seems to do better with ondemand. I personally don't use setcpu....also you can check out my github for the commits on V5. Link in op.

Camera App Left Open Still Reboots the Phone

I am running a fresh wipe of 3.2 with the 2D Gallery. After clearing all Cache I flashed CFS 10/17.

More Battery Life

The backport of idle code from .34 is by Erasmux, it helps TREMENDOUSLY on how your phone behaves during 'idle'

http://github.com/Conap30/htc_kernel_desirec_cfs/commit/5cda01b820e81ccdc0990663ae2ed1ecda6d9a22

Better RAM handling

The backport of lowmemorykiller from .32 by me, helps with the way RAM overall is handled on the device. Absolutely no more 'lost memory' situations or hiccups.

http://github.com/Conap30/htc_kernel_desirec_cfs/commit/cd76c7c164a260ff6a2b429f2777c9c3c3919c85

Fix for Camera Freeze

Essentially, hw3d wouldn't release after you switched rom camera to gallery to camera. Ninpo and Erasmux rewrote hw3d and fixed it.
