Yeah its working out fine. Besides this weird headphone jack issue. I was using the headphones fine before I flashed the kernel. Now the ROM itself all of a sudden doesn't pick em up. And I know I didn't suddenly break my entire headphone jack.

Updated stock rom G2 with the latest. Everything working fine.

Question: Should I be expecting any issues to be cropping up in my stock rom as this kernel isn't necessarily built for it? I've heard wi-fi tethering does not work, but it ran fine on my stock rom.

I'm not experiencing anything (yet) but should I continue updating or is pershoot just building these kernels to work with each cyanogen update?

Thanks for your help in advance.

What are the Problems that appear if using interactive on high oc?

I would like to do so, but didnt found a tutorial working for me.

Would you be so kind and tell us/write a small how to, how you compile your Kernel, so i can work with your source code?

If you dont have the time, no problem, but for me interactive feels a little snappier.

With ondemand i sometimes have lags when switching from one homescreen to another.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] onelikeseabass:
Is that to say high OCs of your kernel? I'm running @ 245/1401 Interactive with CM7s stock kernel. No issues to speak of.

I would like to go back to yours though. The battery life over here is atrocious. Read somewhere that Interactive uses less cpu vs ondemand. Any truth to that?

HTC Vision (G2) - CM7 RC1 B13
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pershoot:
the range is very granular in this kernel, interactive has an issue with it when going from very high to low.

i won't be enabling it. you are free to enable this in src if you like.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pershoot:
i experience absolutely no lag on the homescreen, whatsoever. i don't know what's going on in your specific scenario. try playing with VM heap (lower/higher).

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12004052&postcount=1052

search the CM wiki. youll find building instructions there, and just apply them using my git and defconfig.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] IharpI:
Changing VM Heap just resulted in boot loop for me... ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ChronoReverse:
I've managed to blunder my way into building the kernel from source so I'll just outline the steps quickly. The Cyanogenmod wiki is a much better source of information.

The first thing you need to build from the source is to have a Linux environment prepared. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 in a virtual machine.

The next step is to make sure all the required library and tools are installed. It's not hard in Ubuntu since a single command will do it for you. The exact command is in the Cyanogenmod wiki for building the kernel from source.

Then you need the actual compiler. I'm using the Android NDK but the Code Sourcery EABI compiler works fine too (although you need to add a compiler flag to enable NEON before it'll compile).

After this, you use ADB to pull out config.gz from your phone. Rename it .config and then be sure to load it when doing the menuconfig

Here I edit .config to turn off treating warnings as errors.

make

Wait.

Now the kernel should be ready. All that's left is to package the zImage and flash. I usually just replace the kernel image and the the wifi module in pershoot's zip and flash that without bothering to resign the zip.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
Pershoot,

If you can undervolt the kernel - why doesn't HTC have it set up that way from the get-go with their stock kernel? Do they just not spend as much time researching and developing?

If anyone has an answer feel free to shout out! Just wondering here
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Pershoot,

is there any possible RAM hack available for use like on the Nexus? Or at least could you enable comcache on the kernel to add a bit more for use?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ChronoReverse:
They're just using the recommended voltages for the cpu. However, the quality of the chip is usually higher than the minimum so undervolting works for most people.

Htc has to play it safe though and thus they use the voltage that is guarateed to work with everyone.

Sent from my HTC Vision
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Plus, the stock kernel is clocked at 800 which could be considered underclocked/unvolted compared to our chipset in other devices.

java.io.FileNotFoundException: /data/data/misc/vpn/.states (No such file or directory)

From what I know, it should be /data/misc/vpn/.states, isn't it? Or it could be a CM7 issue (haven't tried without your kernel, so don't know)

Which module re-enables the death ray flashlight? Also, is there a module for enabling compcache on this kernel? Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pershoot:
enable it in config and rebuild.

There is no need for compcache on this platform, so I wont be including it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ibemad1:
So... why did you disable death ray mode?

Sent from my G2 running Cyanogenmod 7.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pershoot:
to prevent users from burning out their LED from extended use.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ibemad1:
I also noticed the capacitive button lights don't vary with display brightness any more.

Sent from my G2 running Cyanogenmod 7.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pershoot:
that has been reverted some time ago, due to various users thinking it was too bright, when not on auto brightness.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
I don't think they ever did on pershoots kernel...at least not anytime within the past two months. They used to be extremely bright but we finally convinced him to turn them down to default levels.

Can anyone tell me the differences between this and various advanced kernel?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
Working great on my stock G2 rom. Thanks again Pershoot!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
But isn't that their choice? I mean the flashlight gives you warning when switching to death ray mode. That's kind of silly to disable it all together. There's no need for you to feel responsible for the death of anyone's led flash. But it's up to you in the end... although I disagree about that and that there is no need for compcache to be an option in CM settings like other kernels. Well, anyways... good work otherwise, as always.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pershoot:
it is absolutely their choice. anyone can pull my source and rebuild. i encourage it.

i'll probably enable it later on if there is demand.

Great update. Gonna try it on gingerbread sense.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
I personally like the backlight dim like that.

I say enable the flashlight. Don't care about brightness.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
Honestly, whatever you do someone's gonna ***** one way or the other. I say if you like it, add it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] primatage:
For the button brightness, I personally like them at this somewhat dimmed level. As for the flashlight, I had always thought that it had been deemed dangerous to use deathray on a G2 anyway? Not fire hazard danger, but melted LED danger?

I haven't been in a situation yet where the regular flashlight brightness wasn't enough.

Sent by sheer force of will.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Enable flashlight and leave brightness low or have it adjust with the brightness of the screen....on the low side if possible ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ibemad1:
I really don't understand the discussion about the button brightness. It's either pershoot decides what it should be, or I, the user, decide what it should be through cyanogenmod display settings. I prefer setting it manually.

I say go back to the user-changeable capacitive button backlight settings, and enable the deathray mode.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Hey pershoot, why shouldnt these kernels be used on sense?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xboarder56:

I could care less about the death ray. I have also not found a use beyond the normal flashlight.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vlad83:
I am not sure what setting you are referring to in CM but even if there was a setting, not everyone that uses pershoot's kernel is running CM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pershoot:
no, not really. i like to use it, but it currently doesn't work as expected on cm7 for me (it flickers high/low at times).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pershoot:
because the wifi, UMS, etc. are not tailored for it, and may not be compatible.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
Agreed. I am not.

I vote keep the deathray (though I would never enable such a feature myself), and keep the capacitive buttons' brightness right where it is at now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vlad83:
Lol deathray isnt that bad, I use it all the time for short duration... I guess some people power their house with it...

One time I did use it with the strobe effect at a party, was pretty neat... over 30 mins and still kicking :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Blades:
I use death ray all the time. Run it for 30 seconds and touch the led with your finger. Just kidding, don't it doesn't tickle.

has anybody flashed .33 yet?

I did it earlier and had major battery drain compared to .32 but I am wondering if it was just from the flash itself and the area I was in, reception wise. Android system was using around 40% of my battery.

It seems to be normal again now so I was just wondering if anybody else had the issue. I am using liquidvillian rom 1.1

Shaquiel: if everything is working flawless (bt, wifi, usb mount, etc.), then pls list the rom and ill add it to the posting.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] zoman7663:
I flashed .33 late last night. Battery was the best it has been in the 4 days I've had the G2. Running Ice and Fire CM7RC2 v1.6. Cell standby 31%, Android system 30% and Phone idle 28% after 11 hours battery was still at 53%, light to normal usage (I was at work). :D

Does anyone use Screebl? I used on my G1 and Nexus one with no major issues. But on the G2 it is a Battery KILLER, usually consuming some 85-90% of listed battery usage. Thoughts?? :confused:

If you're willing, go ahead and do a fresh install of the rom. I've run across things that get screwed up, either configuration wise or with some app gone rogue, that were draining my battery on a number of roms.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] usmcrhyno:
My battery finally got normal after a few reboots. GPS just would not play nice at all though. SO I ended up going back to .32 for now. It worked flawlessly for me.

When I reverted back to .32 everything worked flawlessly. Battery, GPS and all. So I will stay on .32 for now. I may just flash the whole rom later and start fresh again to see if that makes any difference.

Pershoot, I am always amazed by your kernels. Keep up the good work. It is much appreciated.

Hello,

I am having problem with auto-rotate

It stops working, after that I need to make a reboot and auto rotate is back to normal for about 30 minutes, then it stops to work again

Do you guys know if this is related to 33 kernel?

I am running CM 6.1.1/Pershoot 33 Kernel/Radio 4.2.17 M2

Please help, I havent tryed to go back to kernel 32 yet

Also I had Radio AUS 6.2.27 and had to go back to 4.2.17, when I reverted I also replaced the RIL files for the radio...don't know if this is related to my auto rotate problem

can you:

go to recovery and clear dalvik

re-flash latest cm6 rom

re-flash latest gapps for cm6

Orientation works fine over here. Haven't received any other reports of it not working either.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SomEngangVar:
My auto-rotate stopped working once. It would stay stuck in landscape whenever I opened an app that was able to use the sensor. Turning it off would put it back into portrait but it wouldn't go back to being able to switch back and forth between portrait and landscape freely and any app that had the ability to calibrate the sensor would just not work. No levels no nothing. After a while it got stuck in landscape again so I rebooted and when it booted up I got the damaged sd card notification. I went into settings and mounted my sd card and things have been fine since. It was weird. Just an odd little one-time hiccup lasting maybe 10 minutes before I got annoyed and rebooted. But like I said it hasn't happened again. And that was on CM7 RC2. I'm back to nightly 21 for CM7.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] prittyboy203:
I'm having almost the same issue but its not so serious I just can't get auto rotate at all when using the phone closed but I can open the keyboard and use it sideways but its does get annoying when I need to use the soft keyboard and I will have to use it upright only any tricks or fix for this I already tried a fresh flash a reboot nada worked but I'm getting the best battery life ever with this kernel and I'm using the gingerbread hd sense Rom on a g2
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] onelikeseabass:
He didn't say to wipe your data partition. You wouldn't lose any settings or have to restore your downloaded apps.

This is based on the fact that you said you are running CM6 and Pershoot said to reinstall CM6. No Data wipe needed as it's not a different ROM.
