Thanks for checking on it. I just installed the BFS version of 1.02 (avs) and it is showing ondemand as the default governor as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mkeena0305:
my phone feels faster and more responsive than ever. ( bfs) thank you
[EVO 4G Android Development] mkeena0305:
Mine shows up as smartass default. Could you have possibly had set on boot in setcpu turned on?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Android 17:
Although the default is smartass, would conservative still work fine on this kernel? Wouldn't conservative still be better for battery life?

Also, what is the difference between this kernel and Savage's kernel? From what I can tell, Zendroid has all the tweaks and updates included in Savage's kernel plus extra stuff.

Just wondering, thanks. This is a great kernel!
[EVO 4G Android Development] xhazyx:
Thanks for an awesome kernel... the phone is running really smooth and everything is really responsive. That wifi driver works like a charm, so far no wifi hiccups for me.

I have yet to test battery life, but im expecting it to be great
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
I prefer smartass for battery life especially with this kernel ^^ not a huge fan of conservative

Smartass will give good performance as well and the phone *should* be responsive and have little issues (it should scale up at a moments notice when it needs to).

There are a few tweaks I want to make to smartass still, but it is quite good as is. Otherwise interactive (which smartass is based on sort of) is a decent choice, as well as on demand :D

I'm not one to criticize but :P Of course i support my own over what other people produce lol.

Really, I would put it as savage has some of the same stuff that I put in my kernel over the same base. I have a lot more changes - like the ck patchset, ll features, lots of misc. stuff. Savage is pretty much the cm kernel with havs, sbc, and some basic adjustments and bfs 360. zen is about the same thing except with a lot more :\ (for the better) Notice that BFS kernels are usually laggy and seem less responsive (like savage) -> I'm pretty sure you won't find that here :D

Of course i'm going to complement myself, but I think zendroid is one of the best bfs kernels you can put on any android phone (intersectraven's kernel is pretty good -> he has a lot of stuff that is in the zen-stable tree as well and works with damentz (i think atleast)). And zendroid is very similar to the IR kernel, although the IR kernel still has a few less things than I put in here.

and besides, this is the first 2.6.35 android kernel to upgrade to 2.6.35.10 :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] slacker76:
I just started getting random reboots after 12 hours. Iv tried pretty much all versions and get reboots with them all. Anyone having this issue?
[EVO 4G Android Development] wmdunn:
Mine was showing as ondemand in os monitor, even before I installed setcpu. Not sure why ... would prefer smart ass governor without having to use setcpu. In the meantime, went ahead with setcpu and changed to smart ass governor ... no profiles.
[EVO 4G Android Development] psychosematic:
As well as a few others ... mine also showed ondemand in setcpu. although i didn't uninstall or reinstall setcpu and it was not set to boot that way. Also when i reboot it is defaulting back to ondemand. i am going to try and set it on boot and see what happens.

EDIT: set at boot seemed to do the trick! Running 1.0.2 BFS AVS ... Smooth as can be! I have always had problems with bfs kernels in the past and this one seems to be doing the trick!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jblazea50:
I'm running the bfs 1.02 on GB beta 4 by Bcnice20. The wifi connected right away. Haven't had any reboots yet (I was getting continuous reboots on the test kernel yesterday). Thanks for the great kernel, always used it on CM roms. Hope there's no issues with this one on the GB rom.

Thanks again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wase4711:
so running cm 6.1.1, and every time I install this kernel, it boots fine the first time, but every time after that, it gets hung on the sprint screen and wont boot..

could something be causing that?

of course I wipe wipe wipe, and everything else...

weird, cause I have always had this problem with zendroid kernels..

so many cm6 users love it, I really want it to work..

thank you!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lento10:
It used to happen to me also, but I solve the problem by: first I change the kernel from bfs to cfs. Second, before flashing I uninstalled set cpu. Third, once the phone boot it, I change the gorvenor.

Those step work for me, I Am using hardware 003.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wase4711:
if you uninstall setcpu, how do you change the governor after rebooting?

I have wiped cache and dalvik AFTER installing the kernel, and it seems to work for now..time will tell..
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lento10:
You have to reinstall after you flashed and boot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] matt2053:
That's what I do too, but I have this same issue with many kernels, not just this one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dthomas03:
yeah...i also get stuck on the HTC evo boot screen after the first time. This happens with every kernel except Kings. What governor are yall using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlueHarford:
Savage kernel has allot more tweaks then standard as well it has allot of tweaks that zendroid doesn't have. As zendroid has some tweaks that savage doesn't want to put in for specific reasons.
[EVO 4G Android Development] luisrcastillo:
Nice post but I would appreciate that you be careful on how you talk and criticize other people's work. Savage has many other tweaks that zendroid doesn't have while there are tweaks zendroid has that savage doesn't. It's not just CM stock with HAVS, SBC and BFS. We just started working on this kernel a couple days ago and it has had a great acceptance already. They're similar, each with differences.

I used to be a fan of your work which by the way is good. The reason I stopped using your kernel and decided to work with Josh on savage was due to the instability of zendroid, lack of support and how long it took you to update the kernel. Seriously, took you so long to release .90 and .91 which many, many users including myself got stuck at white evo screen after a reboot.

Zendroid is a great kernel and like I said, I admire your work on the kernel but as I don't admire the "quick review" of savage you just did. This is a community, an open source one and instead of criticizing other people's work we should be contributing together to have the best phone.

I wish you the best of luck with your kernel and hope you continue doing such good work. Congratulations on being the first kernel on .10. Don't think it offers too many advantages, but hey, you're the first :-)

Merry Xmas to you, Zendroid users, Savage users, and every other evo user out there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
I wasn't being hasty with what i said lol, wasn't being mean. Either way, looking through your git logs there's not really anything significant i'm missing out on.

Instability was eliminated after the BETA tag was dropped ;) my latest source is pretty stable

It wasn't a review, he asked what the differences were and I said zendroid has more stuff - which is basically the only difference :P

Then why not contribute to zendroid instead of forking your own kernel :P (they are very similar) Or just make a new project all together. After all, isn't the only thing you wanted to change about the zendroid source SBC anyway?

Yea i was kind of kidding about the 2.6.35.10 thing lol. I just like to be at the newest, even though nothings really effected as far as our phones are concerned.

Merry Christmas :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Igotsanevo4g:
To add (or not) to the little Zendroid/Savage battle here...

If all of you guys got together on a set of kernels that would be so Fv^king EPIC.

I mean, it would be so damn awesome that my head might just explode.

Have a SBC/non SBC option for those worried about it, have both of the benefits of Savage and Zendroid, and peace and love between the kernel devs ;)

Hope you guys can put your differences aside...

Here's too wishing! :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlueHarford:
No. And you might want to take a harder look...
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlueHarford:
We tried but too much instability. We made our own. We have no issue just was responding to ignorant comments that are false.. we have nothing else to say. Our kernel speaks for itself.

Merry Xmas

I wont be responding to any more posts like these.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Android 17:
Didn't mean to start an argument, was just curious of the differences between the kernels since they both seem similar in a variety of ways.

The Savage kernel looks great too. And well, a little competition, even amongst an open-source community isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Competition tends to breed innovation and a better product when it comes to software and coding :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Igotsanevo4g:
True, if you cant come together. This is just as good haha :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] luisrcastillo:
No biggie, just making sire we're on the same page.

Also, I was going to add SBC because your users asked for it, not because I was going to use your kernel. I was the one who added SBC to CM stock and since your users were asking for it and you weren't around I just wanted to help.

It's all love buddy. Now lets have a good time with our families and get drunk
[EVO 4G Android Development] gswarriorfan:
I flashed the latest zendroid and my battery life is amazing! So far with heavy use of installing apps, using them, surfing the net, and playing games I still have about 28% left!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jhoffy22:
This kernel can be used with MIUI right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jhoffy22:
**** move, those guys have comprised that kernel in a matter of a couple of days and I have been running it and it is completely stable and there is absolutely no unresponsiveness at all. It wasn't really necessary for you to say

You can't say anything in return to that. It was completely uncalled for and immature.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ms79723:
Yep. MIUI is AOSP so all AOSP kernels will (and should) work for it. But what I'm still trying to understand is how BC's kernel works for both Sense and AOSP....
[EVO 4G Android Development] jhoffy22:
Netarchy has a kernel that works for both too...that's why I asked. MIUI is a little funky with certain kernels too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ms79723:
Yes MIUI is odd with its kernels...and Netarchy's kernels on an AOSP rom will cause some texture tearing. BC's has no side effects for both Sense and AOSP.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
Arghh I'm a pirate

I have no issues here on minuit, not sure the difference between sense and aosp kernels, I think in. 29 it was just a change to the touch screen driver.

Anyway,, time to start Christmas day festivities..merry christmas
[EVO 4G Android Development] aduljr:
The new kernel worked. Thanks guys
[EVO 4G Android Development] EJerVJerO:
Can we get a Zendroid Kernel for V8 Beta SBC Kernel?
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
Jeez... bbedward can't catch a break. v8 was just released today. I'm sure bbedward will do it when he can, but at this rate, he'd be making, like, 5 kernel updates a day to keep up with the SBC mod.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lopezpm:
Flashed the bfs version a couple of days ago and this thing hauls ass, nice and smooth, and has great battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Crossrocker:
What's up aight wifi? It won't scan any thing

A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on the IPhone. We now have the Htc Evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drapeto:
Thanks much

I've flashed the new kernel running 6.1.1 and no issues seen. Didn't have to setcpu just like the instructions say. Still messing around with AVS v. SVS and BFS v. CFS. Great job and thanks much for all the hard work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
There's no changes in the github so I can't really update anything :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] EndlessDissent:
That's cool. You just released 1.0.2 a couple days ago. I'm not trying to rush you. I'm on your side. MS updates his **** almost everyday. It must be nearly impossible to keep up with that. Plus, I'm not trying to flash a new kernel everyday. I like 1.0.2 just fine. It hasn't done me wrong yet.

Edit: Looks like v8 is still in beta. He'll probably put it on github when he thinks it's stable.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrono:
this kernel is amazing, i'm using 1.0.2 CFS SVS and have never gotten this good of battery life before O.o
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Indeed ... I am actually returning my phone in the next few days because I am getting obscene levels of battery drain when operating it (something like 10% drop in 15 minutes of use ... calls, texts, whatever), and so as soon as I made the call I returned it to stock in preparation for mailing it back. On stock I got about 2 hours of actual usage and couldn't stand it, so I rerooted, flashed Cm 6.1.1, and immediately flashed the 1.0.2 BFS AVS. I get 10 hours of usage from it now. Still a broken phone that will soon be replaced (whenever Sprint actually mails the new one), but at least its manageable now. I can't wait to see what kind of battery life I get with a phone that actually functions. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
:D

The next havs build should get even better battery life as the voltages are lower now (bigger steps too)
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Most excellent. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
OP, not sure if you have looked already but this looked interesting

linky
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mayonesa:
I like this kernel but I was having	lot of random reboots.... Thoughts?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
Just implemented the galaxy s function into git ;) We'll see if it makes any difference :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
your welcome glad i could copy and paste so the smart folks can do the real work :D:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] djevac:
Dev Help... I tried both AVS and SVS...CFS and BFS too. I keep getting random reboots for all versions. The kernel is great, fast and snappy, the SBC mod is awesome. Its terrible that it randomnly reboots every few minutes. Do something!! haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] conflikt:
Which of these kernels works best with the 002 hardware?
[EVO 4G Android Development] toprock23:
1. I only get random reboots if I overclock past 1113. Are you OCing? 2. Did you wipe?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Crossrocker:
Ooooohhh what is this galaxy s function?

A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on the IPhone. We now have the Htc Evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] djevac:
Yea I wiped...cache and dalvik. Im on CM6.1.1 , Amon ra recovery... I had main setcpu on smartass and wasn't OCing past 1113.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlueHarford:
Its about cache... there's a post about it from the dev in the form. The only time you'll notice a difference is if your using emulation software.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mad06STi:
1.0.2 cfs and bfs give me reboots every 15-30 minutes. They went away for a day after I switched to the conservative governor, but started again over night on the charger. SetCPU is set to 998 all of the time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] analyst28:
SBC

Forgive my ignorance but does this kernel incorporate the SBC charging tweaks or is that something i add to this after i flash it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bwcorvus:
1.02 has it already
[EVO 4G Android Development] bwcorvus:
I had this problem if I leave wifi on, turned it off, problem went away.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NonCorp:
I've been using the 1.0.2 CFS AVS since this morning and I have to say this kernel has been great so far!

Not sure if it was the kernels fault, but with 1.0.1 CFS AVS there were a couple times where there was an extreme battery drop-off. Like from 85% to 15% in an hour. I only had 3G enabled, but was not running anything. I checked System Monitor, and it does not Show any programs with any significant CPU usage during this time. I switched to the SVS and the issue did not repeat. I had just reset the battery stats, not sure if that should cause such an effect tho.

This has not happened with 1.0.2 so far. Just thought it was kind of odd, so worth mentioning.

Anyway, absolutely great work man! Some of the best kernels I have ever flashed. Thanks for all your hard work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] djevac:
But which governor are you using? ...I havent tried turning off the wifi so I might give that a shot. And I havent tried switching from smartass.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bwcorvus:
I'm running smartass also. Phone would reboot every 30 minutes or so if on the charger with wifi on.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NonCorp:
Did you check the temp? Was it overheating?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bwcorvus:
Never thought about it, just turned off wifi and it stopped.
[EVO 4G Android Development] conflikt:
Got 8 hours with moderate usage using the cfs svs stock battery. Going to try another.
[EVO 4G Android Development] conflikt:
Bedward, thanks for this awesome kernel and programming. I was curious it if is possible to get a uncapped version of this kernel? My reason being is because I'd like to use Collins battery tweak but isn't it outdated? Would be sweet if you could update it and somehow implement that into your kernels if it is possible. Just a thought. ;) keep on coding!
[EVO 4G Android Development] panopticon1:
Just adding my experience -- both 1.02 CFS and BFS give me random reboots every 15-30 minutes, as well. I've tried running fix_permissions, but that doesn't fix it. Running Cyanogen 6.1.1.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thedarksavant:
It'd sure be nice to figure this out. I'm running 1.0.2 BFS/AVS with no problems and great battery life. Have you tried the 'normal' things like re-setting up or turning off SetCPU?

Do you have Juice Defender Pro or some other app that can change the CPU settings possibly over or under clocking passed the kernel's threshold?

Something must happen every 15-30 minutes to trigger it. Do you have any app that wakes up at certain intervals and does something? Check email perhaps? Not that checking email should cause it, but a clue is a clue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thedarksavant:
I don't know what "Collins battery tweak" is, but if you are talking about trickle charging past 90%, I believe the 1.0.2 kernels already implement it. I know with 1.0.2 BFS/AVS I wake up each morning to a battery at 100%.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Crossrocker:
Bbedward, could you please have an option to remove trickle charge fix? Im afraid to destroy my battery.

A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on the IPhone. We now have the Htc Evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] conflikt:
Bbedward, Collin_phs tweak can be found here. http://www.primoweb.com/froyo/, and here is the original documentation http://www.primoweb.com/froyo/battery_tweak_v3.html so you'll have a better understanding. . The original source can be found here http://github.com/myn/battery-tweak-v3 Myn ported it over in his rls3 and had it implemented in his rom. But I don't believe anyone has updated it in a few months. Did work very well I will say that much.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
I'm not sure what you mean by uncapped, the SVS versions of this kernel should work fine with the collin_ph tweak (to my knowledge nothing changes in the kernel, just some script is loaded at bootup for the rom). So it's the rom that needs to implement some sort of change, or you can implement it manually but the kernel doesnt have anything to do with it (just use the non-havs version)

*edit* -> and the SBC fix shouldn't affect that battery tweak either (i would be surprised if it did anyway)

I don't really want to make an extra build every time -> but if you pm me for a special request I may make one for you.

Here's what I'll do ^^ I'll add a Kconfig option for the trickle charge fix so it can be disabled if desired by whoever is building the kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Crossrocker:
Yeah haha thatd be wayy too much work.. I have no idea what kconfig means but shouldn't there be a adb way of disabling it?

A drop of Chuck Norris's semen was placed on the IPhone. We now have the Htc Evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
KConfig is a configuration file for KDE. I personally have no experience using it (being a mere mortal, not a coder), but I fully support any fellow KDE user. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
Well not quite, but I do use KDE ;)

Kconfig is the title of the files that the kernel configuration information (prompts, info, etc) is stored in.

Here I'm using using it as short term for kernel configuration, meaning you can change the driver easily at compile time and thats it.

In this situation, it's impossible to make it changeable at any other time.

----------

OH and BTW,

the 1.1.0 builds should be the first custom kernels (possibly just the first aosp kernel) to work with the 004 camera :D No guarantees but the new drivers are there and built in, so the cameras of all evos should work on the next build :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
I will try to confirm if the camera is now working on my 003 Hardware EVO, it wasn't working in 1.02 so, GJ on being the first.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
lol cyanogen made the updates to his tree right after i made them to mine :P

temporarily postponed the new build as I'll use his tree instead
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
New builds are uploaded, also whipped up a nifty little splash1 image for zen ;) (it's pretty awesome)
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
I can confirm that the camera works thanks. I have one small request/question. You say your kernel is very similar to IR's kernel, except you have some things he doesn't. I was looking at the change-log for both kernels, and I seen he has a Hybrid AVS+SVS kernel. I was wondering if that was something you could/would look into for better battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
Well, the AVS kernel is considered AVS+SVS I guess as AVS depends on SVS ;)

I only build a non-avs as some phones seem to have issues with it, although rare. Also for the colin_ph tweak or anything similar it won't work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jr19703:
Just flashed, excited to get my camera back. Still no camera. Hardware 003. I think my phone hates me.

Jason
[EVO 4G Android Development] mastermind763:
Omg 1.1.0 is awesome! The previous version would cause random reboots. Its been a few hours with no such problems!
[EVO 4G Android Development] conflikt:
How do you flash the splashscreen? i tried flashing the zip from within the recovery with no luck?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
There's a couple of ways, the easiest way is only if you're fully rooted with the eng bootloader (not unrevoked)

then you just download the fastboot exe (somewhere like androiddls.com i think), or linux or mac one

then you reboot into fastboot (vol down + power)

extract the zip

and run this in cmd prompt:

fastboot.exe flash splash1 splash1.nd
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mayonesa:
for some reason the reboots only happen to me if i leave wifi on.. it doesnt happen when im using the phone on wifi, just when im not using the phone and wifi stays on...

no reboots when i turn it off.
