You are right.. I too feel just like how you do.. :( :( when will they stop??

I really wish Angry Birds was like 5$ on the Market so the God damn hippies will stop complaining!!! :( :( Even if Angry Birds work properly the Hippe will say "Oh my Battery drain is really Bad, I can get only 6 hrs".. Get a God damn PSP or Kinect..

This ROM is working fine, but it seems to have higher current draw than previous ones, on the order of 60mA in standby. I know, they tend to settle down after awhile, so I'll report back tomorrow, but this isn't usually the case with prior builds.

Oh, and yes, Angry Birds installs just fine :D

After replacing 4 files as suggested in the readme.txt from R8.1 to R8.2, my google maps now gets a force close warning every time. It refuses to locate my location and I cannot even do search in the maps...

I tried to clear data / cache but it does nothing. I cannot uninstall the maps and reinstall it. Does anyone know how do I reinstall the google maps?

Thanks all.

---------UPDATE---------

False Alarm... a restart of android does the trick!
[HD2 Android SD Development] raysacr:
I can't wait...
[HD2 Android SD Development] rafpigna:
Please, I hope some one could help me.

It seems that all works for me, but I always have problems with notifications Led.

It NEVER works, on any rom that I try.

On some roms, the only way to let them work is to start the phone with the charger attached.

My question is:

what is supposed that I do with the "lights.htcleo.so" file? I'm a bit confused.

I have to copy it in the /system/lib/hw folder AFTER the start with the new kernel? Or I have to just copy the "root" folder under the Android folder and the system will do the rest?

I have to rename it to lights.qsd8k.so, overwriting the "old" one?

Please, help me!

Thanks

Just reporting that 8.2 is by far the most stable and fast kernel I have found so far. I have tried them all.

Great work :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
I have similar problems and have started using "Wifi Fixer" app from the market. It does a good job of trying to keep it connected.

Bring back extended battery!!!!!!!!!!

so many users are getting extended batteries for the HD2 since they are cheap and having 3 days of battery life is very efficient when it works with android

:)
[HD2 Android SD Development] jae-v:
which one do you use? link me, i've seen cheap ones but i dont wanna order from hong kong
[HD2 Android SD Development] jogden:
i ordered from hong kong - $13.72 on ebay.

it shipped in about 2 weeks, if you have a working battery its worth the wait for the cheaper price
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
When I do get a chance, and presuming I can figure out how, to update things it will be for the official extended battery.

If the cheap clones happen to work that's great but I won't be testing with them.

Thsnks Hastarin ... I will try it. Anyway I'm pretty sure I'm having this behaviour from 8.0.. 7x versions I'm sure not gave me this issue

Anyway thanks for all!
[HD2 Android SD Development] kaizer hanz:
ask for extended battery

@ hastarin, can I use kernel 7.x for my Extended Battery 2300mAh, I have tried 7.x family from 7.6, 7.7, 7.8 and 7.8Alt, but no success. Always Shutdown.

what do I miss..?:confused: (Just replace zImage and module)

i'm using CoreDroid v0.6

warm regards,

Kaizer Hanz

try change your winmo rom, i have that kind of problem, changing from chuky to vbn solve my shutdown problem..

So...angry birds ; )

I somehow managed to upgrade my cat to hastarin 8.2 and then it ate an angry bird!!!!

Oh what must i do?
[HD2 Android SD Development] victa:
Sounds like an awesome cat...

Does the camera work on your Hastarin 8.2 cat? :p
[HD2 Android SD Development] lukesan:
Probably the 'fakes' behave the same as the original one.
[HD2 Android SD Development] northern247:
Yep no problems with the camera on my cat at all, apart from the fact it only seems to take pictures of half eaten angry birds...bit I don't think that's kernel related.
[HD2 Android SD Development] flo90:
Setcpu it's not compatible??
[HD2 Android SD Development] dj_ghosie:
I have 2 problems after upgrading to 8.2

1. 720p recording still doesn't work, quit when press start

2. Battery drain, used to be 7mA idle but now 130mA

Aside from copying the kernals, nothing has changed.

I'm changing back to 8.1 and see if the situation gets better
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
Well I never said 720p worked.

Battery drain.... Read my FAQ. Every release someone posts crap about it. Every release mine is just fine.

I have 33% remaining after 15.5hrs of moderate use.

@Hastarin

Thanks for the advice on "WiFi fixer" app.

It definitevely solved my "Wifi sleep" issure. Thanks a lot man! :D

Just a comment about battery drain: i NEVER go up 10mA in standby with DATA and SYNC active.

If you have high battery drain is not kernel fault. Probably is not rom fault.

Probably you are using some app that put the CPU in stress

Probably you not wait 5 minutes after boot to use your system.. give Android the time to settle itself!!!

Probably your sd card is not good

Probably your radio is not good

Probably you are using a rom full with animations and so on.. they take cpu power!! Try a more "clean" rom!

I changed many roms, many kernels...never had battery issue.. whole day withot problems.
[HD2 Android SD Development] morpheus1982:
So how do you explain 7.7 with great battery drain, to 8.2 with very high drain? When the only thing you have changed is the kernel. I am not the one complaining (even though I have just noticed the same thing), but you cannot blame the person for wondering what is going on.
[HD2 Android SD Development] rafpigna:
Already tried to reset it a couple of times and NOT TOUCH IT for 5 minutes after booting is complete?
[HD2 Android SD Development] morpheus1982:
I will try that theory before hopefully not having to revert back to 7.7. Nothing to lose. Thanks.

EDIT: OK after 5 mins, drain dropped to 15mA. Experienced 7mA just before upgrading to 8.2. Do you think it is likely to improve given that AXI etc is missing?

EDIT2: 13mA :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
Here is my drain on 8.2

It might be worse than on 7.8 but it's not THAT much worse. Like I said people complain with every update no matter how minor and how unrelated to power usage it may be.

I am 100% certain it is NOT the kernel at fault unless it's some strange interaction that only a handful of people get in the 7000 odd downloads I see.

Sent from my HTC HD2
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
Drain won't get as low as 7.x but it should be within 2mA in my experience. Ie I see lows of 7-9mA

[HD2 Android SD Development] d3l1:
Seems like the market is buggy, my connection is fine and fast but market takes forever sometimes, even with wifi.

also with the autorotation, I disabled it and since then "the moron test" is crashing as soon as I press start, other landscape games work fine though. it's not the kernel, I had that with R11, too. sorry for OT but maybe it has something to do with the autorotation issue.
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
Testers wanted

If you're interested in testing an Alpha versionof this kernel with support for extended batteries, please let me know, either in this thread or send me a PM.

Based on reading michyprima's kernel thread and the work I've done today I'm relatively confident I have the battery percentage issue sorted. The temperature I'm not so sure about as his thread seemed to suggest a different algorithm is required for it and I won't know until I get some test data for that.

To provide a bit more information, worst case should be that the phone thinks the battery is hotter than it actually is and so it won't charge, or it thinks the battery isn't full when it is and tries to charge it, in which case the overcharge circuitry should kick in and turn the charger off. Of course if you test it with a battery that isn't full then that won't be an issue anyway.
[HD2 Android SD Development] lesjaw:
@hastarin

i know there is no rmnet support in new evo base kernel, is it impossible to add rmnet in your kernel, this is because rmnet is much more stable in my country.. i'm using your kernel right now, all freeze has gone..has been use it for 1,5 days..ppp does work but i have to manually add my provider dns, and the speed is very slow compare to rmnet..

i hope there is a way to include rmnet support in next relase..

thank you for ur great job bro..
[HD2 Android SD Development] aussiebum:
Oh btw, figured out why I couldn't connect to my home wifi network - didn't realise that with the EVO kernel it actually provides a proper MAC address and I had MAC filtering setup on my router :p

It's connected, so all good now!

Btw, pretty sure someone else has reported this, but there's a tiny bit of stuttering when playing music using the default Music app and when the screen is on. Doesn't happen (much) when the screen is off.

Wondering if it's related to me having Auto-rotate enabled... haven't tried turning it off and playing music yet.
[HD2 Android SD Development] aussiebum:
if your provider's DNS is ****e use either OpenDNS or Google DNS.... eg. Shubcraft's ppp build uses Google DNS.
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
hehe Good to know.

I haven't tried playing stuff with Auto-Rotate enabled, doing that with the screen forced on and playing over the WiFi with DNLA, and CPU set to the conservative governor 245 min 576 max (since my battery is low atm, see post #1). In short anything is going to go wrong that should do it. ;)

Are you tweaking things with SetCPU or going with the defaults?

Are you using Autokiller?
[HD2 Android SD Development] aussiebum:
Yeah using Autokiller and SetCPU. Using Ultimate profile for Autokiller and interactive governor in SetCPU with different min-max depending on battery (eg. 245-1113 default, 245-998 @ <80% batt, 245-768 @ < 60%, etc).

Thing is though, I haven't changed any of these settings compared to when I was using Michy's r11 kernel (and I didn't have music stutter probs of course). I basically dropped your kernel in and that was it.

Just tested with auto-rotate off/on and lots of shaking but for some reason can't replicate the issue atm. Might just forget about it for now and see what happens tomorrow :)

The annoying thing is though I'm actually still getting that g-sensor overload-triggered touchscreen freeze that the EVO kernel was supposed to fix :( Seems to happen intermittently when using a app that uses the g-sensor and touchscreen heavily (like Ninja Splat, as I've mentioned before).
[HD2 Android SD Development] christ17:
How can i do this?

And Thanks for you reply
[HD2 Android SD Development] famewolf:
I'm interested in testing the extended battery support...will we be able to use both regular batteries AND extended or only extended? (I'm currently running a "extended battery only" kernel on mattc 1.8 by arne but the percentage of battery stayed 100% all day yesterday while I was out so I know it's not quite right and I'd like option to drop in regular battery while the extended charges in a "fast charger".
[HD2 Android SD Development] nobnut:
Hi,

I'm not moaning at all, #2 works perfectly for me. I had problems with wifi with #3 (wouldn't even scan) so I reverted back to #2.

I just retried #3 and made doubly sure I had done everything correctly (zImage name, running script, toggling Airplane mode etc) and still no wifi.

I'm just flagging it up.

ROM - ChuckyDroid

Radio - 2.14.50....

Android - Bangsters latest
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
It will support both. I've got someone on IRC helping me test right now. Will see how that goes and get back to you, and the others that have PMed me, if I need the help.

Cross your fingers. ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] aussiebum:
oh hastarin, I think I might have gotten Bluetooth working - this technique might also work on CM6-based builds. Instead of just refusing to turn on Bluetooth at all, I can actually check the checkbox and even set it to discoverable :)

Basically, I grabbed the following off Darkstone's DesireHD build (preserving file permissions... shouldn't make a difference just in case):

/system/lib/

* libbluedroid.so

* libbluetooth.so

* libbluetoothd.so

/system/bin/btld

from build.prop:

* all the lines under "# Release Bluetooth HW/SW information", last line "ro.bt.profiles"

* all the lines udner "# Properties of BTLA stack", last line "service.brcm.bt.avrcp_toggle

from init.rc:

* the section that starts with "service btld" and ends with "oneshot"

/system/etc/AudioBTID.csv (not sure if this is needed to be updated!)

* changed Default and Default Car-kit to have the same numbers as seen in the DesireHD build (ie. 1001, 1101 and 1201,1301 respectively)

Lemme know if this actually helps anyone :rolleyes:
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
BTW I got diverted on to something else. But I couldn't get the music player to skip. /shrug
[HD2 Android SD Development] aussiebum:
Did you double check:

* both modules from #3 were installed?

* check that Wifi firmware was latest version (aug-31st)? files would be under /system/etc/firmware. download latest from htc-linux.org

* (not sure if this is needed, but someone reported it): lights.htcleo.so installed / adapted to your build? I renamed lights.htcleo.so to lights.mahimahi.so and also to lights.qsd8k.so for HD2Froyo.

If this kernel works on darkstone's now ancient HD2Froyo 2.1 release it should work elsewhere too.. might just need some investigation ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
Nice work! One of those CM6 lovers out there needs to give it a go. :p
[HD2 Android SD Development] aussiebum:
I'll write something up onto the HD2Froyo thread tomorrow.
[HD2 Android SD Development] aussiebum:
yeah no big deal. I was 1/2 asleep on the bus when I noticed it anyways lol :rolleyes:

this kernel work it with bangsters 1.3??
[HD2 Android SD Development] morpheus1982:
Hastarin,

Thanks for the update. It may seem like it, but I am not one of the complainers.

To me you are CookieMonster on the Android kernel world.

I think 8.2 is OK at the moment. I do expect drain to be a little higher, but one thing I think leads to the battery drain obsession is Current Widget! Everyone wants to standby value as low as possible, forgetting that if you are constantly using the device, then standby drain quickly becomes irrevelant.
[HD2 Android SD Development] rafpigna:
So now, who was right? :rolleyes: :D

Of course, it's based on observation that you are running a OS from an SD card.. it needs time to settle itself... ;)
[HD2 Android SD Development] morpheus1982:
Thanks, will see how is goes.
[HD2 Android SD Development] morpheus1982:
What values do you typically see in standby?

Maybe its because I like a Sense build over a Clean build?
[HD2 Android SD Development] morpheus1982:
% to mA ratio

Just throwing this out there while we are on the topic of battery drain with this kernel....

In terms of % drop per hour, what really is the difference in standby drain of 7mA to 12mA?

Anyway experts out there?

Thanks.
[HD2 Android SD Development] rafpigna:
Tipycally between 5mA and 8mA, with data (3G) on, wifi&gps off, autosynch and push mail ON.

I also see that stronger is the GSM/UMTS signal, lower is the power drain

I do HAVE a Sense build, also if I not use the Sense launcher but Launcher Pro, with 3 pages full of widgets and with about 100mb of free Ram
[HD2 Android SD Development] morpheus1982:
OK thanks. I use the Sense Launcher with all 7 pages full!

Cleary a lot of factors involved here...
[HD2 Android SD Development] rafpigna:
Sure.. also the operator network changes the power drain.

O2 network hardware could request just a bit more power than other for example.. anyway from 7ma to 12mA, pratically there are no differences.

Is importanto to see also the "non standby" power drain, and from versions 7x, my powerdrain is improved a lot (I have 200-300mA while browsing or reading emails, about 500mA when playing Angry Birds, with 7x thse values were about 100mA higher)
[HD2 Android SD Development] morpheus1982:
Thank you for your insight.

I hope the other guy whom I originally defended is listening LOL!
[HD2 Android SD Development] CR5N:
My comment on standby is that it is 5 to 7 mA at work where I get excellent data connection. At home where I have problems it is 7mA up to 10mA. 3G radios automatically adjust the power constantly. The worse the connection, the more power is used to try and fix.

I notice from your system panel capture that you are charging all night? Could that be it? Maybe the battery is getting a better charge. Or does it stop charging immediately when it reaches 100%?

I personally only charge until I get to 100% and I have seen a difference in battery life between 7.7 and 8.x It only seems to last half as long.

But it could also be my rom and radio combination of course.
[HD2 Android SD Development] dubie76:
I mentioned something similar in another post her at XDA. Battery life and web speed has way too many factors to narrow them down and solve them. I dont know why people constantly complain and harp about both things. Sure there are ways and tweaks that we can do to improve them, but bottom line is that they are what they are.

CIFS is a file system, so your android can read from a disk using that, read hastarin's early posts for more

CIFS is module for SAMBA protocol support.

SAMBA is Windows network sharing protocol.

PS: It is not meant for reading from disk, it network protocol.

[HD2 Android SD Development] hashnon:
If you don't know what is it, 99% you don't need it. :)
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
It has absolutely no impact on battery life. It isn't even used unless you load it via a script or an app like "Cifs Manager" which lets you mount shares from a PC over the network.

thank you hastarin, but i noticed u recently put CIFS.KO in the roots/module folder?(on your ver 8.0 and under im looking in the root/module and dont notice it in other ver so i removed it) some reason on taskmanager shows(188free) consumption and less(245free) without it...maybe something in my energy rom but it seems like its running. thanks for clarifying it up for me! love your kernals keep up the AWESOME work bro! :D
[HD2 Android SD Development] hastarin:
Yes I changed it to a module instead of compiling it in to the kernel so those people that don't use it wouldn't have it taking up extra memory.

I guess it's possible something in your build could be causing the module to get loaded even if it's not needed.
