Was running Tiamat 4.0.2 clocked clocked at 385/1152 overvolted +25. I have the extended battery. It was running like a champ and super battery life, until 4.0.3 came out. Frequient reboots and fcs. So tried chads beta 5 worked well minus haptic issues, but beta 6 is chugging along very well. Thanks chad.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Adam.h.ogle:
Running beta 6 with ingenious. Under light usage, I have no problems, but when playing games, such as Robo Defense or Gun Bros, the touch screen will stop responding after a few minutes. The game continues to run, though, and sometimes I can get a force-close dialog to appear, but I can't click anything.

I have switched the scheduler back to smart-ass and the issue went away. Let me know if there is anything I can tweak to give you more information. It looks like if you can figure out these little issues, we'll have a really nice, speedy kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] byrong:
Got my first random reboot yesterday.

Was using Beta6, Ingenious, 128/998,

no

undervolting

Was playing games (robo defense) when gameplay started slowing down. Within the span of a few seconds, the game started becoming unresponsive, then the device rebooted itself.

Wasn't having any issues using Smartass on Beta6, so I'll go back to using that for the time being.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rlacrossjr:
Yeah thats the only way I could even get Taimat 4.0.2/4.0.3 to not freeze and reboot. Min volts after are 950, I been staying away form Tiamat 4X since I found Chad's beta. I'm running Beta 6 (900min) seems good on day two.LOL for me beta is more stable than Taimat's release.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
Hmm, looks like I'll have to grab robo defense and use it as another test app. Haha.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] FramCire:
My freeze and reboot was on Netflix. If that helps. Other then that 1 time. Betas have been great.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] GooTz66:
Don't know if this was covered already but after I loaded beta 6 I went into my CM7 settings and noticed that the governor still said smartass. I changed it to ingenious. Was that necessary or was I already using the ingenious governor after flash?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tiny4579:
It was necessary. I think the governor is based on the ramdisk which is usually set by the rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GooTz66:
Thats what I thought.Thanks for the clarification. :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
Okay, I need whoever is willing to test a couple things:

http://chad0989.dyndns.org/2.6.38.6-incredikernel-test1.zip

http://chad0989.dyndns.org/2.6.38.6-incredikernel-test2.zip

I need whoever tests these to download each and tell me which is better and why. Especially in regards to:

1) Any freezes or reboots

2) Any haptic issues

But please also report

3) Any other issue that may pop up (certain things such as the music cutting out when screen off etc you don't need to report since that will be easily fixed when I start working more on the performance aspect and adjust the scaling, what I want to test here is the stability and function).

Please run them both before reporting your results back so its easy to keep track of.

Also please do not run an undervolt script when testing these and run ingenious 998/128.

Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] beard0:

For you robo-defensers...

I played it for a bit now, and its fricken addictive. I think you guys might have gotten yourself in trouble telling me about this game if you want any more kernel updates... Hahaha

But yeah, I did manage to get the unresponsive touchscreen. No reboot though, it just kept playing but any touches didn't register. I googled the issue and it seems that other devices have also had the problem, so it might not be kernel (not sure yet though). Has anyone had the freeze before on different kernels? Just to confirm

Edit. Got the freeze and reboot. Grabbing a log now to see.

And.... the log shows nothing too useful... hmm, i'll try playing it while logcatting...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Adam.h.ogle:
Yeah, in hindsight, I probably shouldn't have said anything about Robo Defense. It is probably a bad idea to talk about Hex Defense or Gun Bros :D.

Running your Beta 6 kernel with the smartass governor, I was able to play ~4 rounds (100 waves) back to back with no problem. Likewise, running your 4/19 kernel, I had no problems at all. With the ingenious scheduler, though, the touchscreen would become sluggish after a several minutes of playing, first through delayed or prolonged haptic feedback, then by ignoring all input. I tried doing a reset using power/vol-down/button, but even that took ~3 minutes before the phone reset.

I'll see if I can play a few rounds tonight with logcat and post any results.

EDIT: The logcat is really boring. It looks like the Robo Defense menu process is freezing (it uses two processes??). I killed that process and the phone immediately became responsive again. I kept playing for a few more minutes, went to build a new tower, and the app FCed...apparently, I shouldn't have killed that process. I watched the live logcat and there was nothing in there about the phone hanging/freeezing, or about it killing the process. There is a 2 minute gap in the log, though, from the time it froze until I killed that process. My phone is still running (no reboot) and everything still seems stable.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rlacrossjr:
Well this is a quick test for me.. I do Pandora for 9+ hours a day.

Test1 after 30minutes became laggy/cutting out

Test2 30minutes no lag/cut out but went to unlock and home/menu lights up but screen stayed black. But if I waited until menu lights go off(3minutes) then screen would unlock again. Forgot this is using 3G with Pandora
[Droid Incredible Android Development] EnixLHQ:
Test 1: No notification sounds while the phone is sleeping. Reboot after a call came in and I rejected it.

Test 2: Still running. Notification sounds work while sleeping. Nothing else has happened yet.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] d08speed3:
Test1: Ran for about 4 hrs got one screen wake up issues had to wait like 1 min b4 it came on everything ran ok besides that

Test2: Been 45 mins everything seems faster to me and better battery life. Both very hard to say. Still testing 2 tho
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cu-n-az:
Test 1 gave a few haptic hiccups but not as much as beta 6 which was the best of the betas. Had the problem of the screen staying off at the end of a received phone call until the other party hung up - no way to hang it up myself.

Going to flash test 2 now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] d08speed3:
Both test 1 nd 2 nd even beta 6 while charging phone locks up on any browser. Happened on 2 nd then I attempted to replicate it back on 1 nd sure enuff it locked up
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Adam.h.ogle:
I ran Test 2 for a while. The good news: when the phone hangs, the haptic feedback continues to work. The bad news: the phone still hangs during Robo Defense. This time, a three-button reboot took 10 minutes before the phone reset. Everything else seems to work fine, though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
I'm pretty sure I figured out / fixed the issue. I'll post another beta tomorrow with an explanation.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dyetheskin:

will old sense kernel work on newer sense 2.1 and 3.0?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] redsunrising:
Chad,

Loving your Gingerbread kernels as they have been my stable since my switch to CM7 and MIUI. But I'm contemplating a switch to Uber Kingdom, but I'm waiting for a) a little more ROM stability and b) a custom Gingersense kernel. And honestly I'd love an incredikernel Gingersense kernel. So I won't ask for an ETA, but wondering how the artifacting issues are going.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RebelShadow:
I have a problem that maybe someone can help with. I don’t know if it’s something I’m doing wrong or if it’s a CM7 thing but when I reboot my 3G data does not connect and the only way I can get it to connect is to re-reboot then it connects upon the second boot. I hate having to reboot twice every time. I’m currently on nightly 87 with Chad’s beta6 kernel. Any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] poontab:
Try the 4/19.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
Phone signal is all in the ROM/radio. Nothing in the kernel can/should affect it.

Ever since I started using Beta 6 my data would not work. I rebooted several times before it would start working again. I tried two different Radios and two different ROMs. I used Beta6 for all of them.

There is always *228 option 1 and while you're at option 2. Reflash and make sure you wipe cache.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RebelShadow:
Hey Chad, I have confirmed that my "3G won't connect but on every other reboot" problem is in the beta kernel. I flashed back to the 4-19 kernel and reboot 5 times and all 5 times in a row it connected to 3g. Flashed back to beta6 and back to having to reboot twice to connect to 3G. Any ideas?

P.S. - forgot to mention that I wipe cache and delvic before every kernel flash.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] davwman:
I can confirm the same on beta 6 as well.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RebelShadow:
tried that twice, same outcome.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] EnixLHQ:
Chad says that the data connect issue isn't with the kernel, so I believe him, but it is odd. I got it yesterday, too, after flashing Test 2.

I was in the Santa Monica area around 5pm. Any correlation? Data outage briefly in the area, or around that time?

Since then I've had no issues with Test 2 or data.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Asterdroid:
Chad,

I'm still using your last stable release from April, and I'm having major issues with PC to SD file transfer rates. I did some research and apparently it's a kernel issue (after having tested my cables/ports).

Is this something that's been fixed in any of the recent versions? Is this even a known bug?

Here's my source, by the way: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/20032-very-slow-file-transfer-over-usb-cable/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
Yes, its a known bug. It occurs with all 2.6.37+ kernels on all devices. Unfortunately nobody has found a fix yet. The current workaround is to use "multi mount sdcard" from the market.

For everyone else. The potential fix from last night turned out to not be a fix. It helped, but I still got a reboot in robo defensers after about 90-100 waves. :(

Edit: I have another idea of what it could be, but I really need to study. If someone who wants to play lots of robo defensers could do me a favor and set your min/max to something like 921/998 and play for awhile and let me know if you still get the lock.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Muerte_X:
I have a question, maybe you can answer it and help me narrow this down. I'm still using the 4/19 kernel...Ever since CM7 I've noticed Wifi is using way more power than it used to coming from sense ROMs. Is this something that's controlled by the kernel? Looking at my battery usage graph, you can see the graph go down about twice as fast with the wifi on, even if I'm connected to an AP.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SomeGuyDude:
Just for the record, it also locks up while playing Chuzzle with the Ingenious governor. Went back to smartass and everything's going fine again.

- Dinc + MIUI = bliss
[Droid Incredible Android Development] EnixLHQ:
Words With Friends, not exactly smooth to begin with, gets very sluggish on Ingenious to the point of the OS asking to terminate the game. You have to constantly ask it to wait to place your first letter any time it's your move.

On Smartass it behaves better, being quite smooth and responsive.

Music on Ingenious isn't limited to stuttering. Volume control if the screen is off sometimes takes upwards of a minute to register being pushed. If you had pushed the volume control several times during that period all the changes will flood the control at once.

It seems that Ingenious isn't quite multitasking or upscaling, yet.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Adam.h.ogle:
Challenge accepted :D

I set the min to 998 and the Max to 998. I made it through 100 waves with not even a stutter. Do you think that the governor is sticking at a low frequency instead of scaling up when it should? Is there a way I could watch / log the frequency changes when I play?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
Its not sticking at too low of a frequency per say, but while playing it does scale up at down and use lots of frequencies (which in theory would be better for battery life) vs smartass which scales to and sticks at max. I've been planning on making it scale somewhat more aggressively (which is also the cause of the music stuttering) I just wanted to sort out bugs first, but it appears that not scaling aggressively enough may be the cause of some of the bugs.

Anyone else play a few hundred more waves to confirm?

Also anyone try 921/998 or something close to that? I wanted to see if its the scaling itself during gameplay or just that its utilizing some pretty low frequencies.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rlacrossjr:
If you have MIN/MAX at 998 there is no frequency change. Thank Chad wanted 921MIN and 998MAX.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MXFrodo195:
With AOSP Rome I've noticed you have to turn the GPS on before turning 3g on. It'll connect everytime after a few seconds. I had same problem.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] firewater88:
I have the same issue. I was using the latest (a few days ago) nightly of CM7 and I had data connect issues running beta 4. I thought it was me cause I have little to no signal at work and something happened. I am also running the 10.05.06 radio and thought that was the issue. Updated to the latest nightly (last nights) and did NOT re-flash beta 4, just left it alone with the kernel from CM and had NO data disconnects today at work or home.

The quickest way was to toggle airplane mode on and off. it comes back on, then goes away, maybe 3 times during the day. It took a while to notice the first time, but man I was getting GREAT battery life with data off! (but no notifications or updates)

unless it was a fluke on that nightly and beta 4, I think there is something in the kernel that might be causing issues. I am only speculating, I am by no means dissin Chad and his kernel.

Thanks for all the work!

(I would have posted yesterday but I didn't have ten posts yet and didn't want to drop 10 stupid posts and flood the forum just so I could post in development forum :D )
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rlacrossjr:
Chad using version test2 4hours of slacker radio(3G) with no lag/skipping issue have on ingenious 128/1113 but when I put Max down to 998 then got skips and the wake issue after 45 minutes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RebelShadow:
Hey Chad, more info on my “3g won’t connect but on every other reboot” problem in the beta6 kernel. I started playing with it some more and found with the ingenious governor set it would connect every time I reboot but with smartass set it goes back to connecting on every other reboot. Hope this helps. I would like to run the ingenious but it is still too laggy for me, especially with typing in any app.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cheez99:
Man the latest 2.6.38 test kernel is amazingly smooth. None of the occasional stuttering I used to have when scrolling home screens and app drawer.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] firewater88:
Chad, and everyone else, It has happened to me again when not on Incredikerel. Today it happened at work when I shut wifi off, the 3G would not kick back on. It must be the radio that I am running in combo with the nightly I am on.

Thanks Chad, keep up the awesome work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
Good news. I just played 100 straight on robo defense with no issues. Expect something later. I want to make a couple more changes first.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Marcismo55:
Sounds like some fun "testing" :p

On another note: I had my phone on the charger while listening to some Pandora at my desk here at work and heard my phone vibrate (screen was off). I then realized the phone continued to vibrate and the screen was just completely blank and unresponsive. I had to do a battery pull because it wouldn't stop vibrating.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] rlacrossjr:
I ran Pandora/slacker on3g still getting skips but not as bad. Settings are 128/1113 changing to smartass or performance did not fix either,and tried 248/998. Also music would skip when I load browse and bookmark. I reloaded your April release and skips went away.

Edit-- I left on 128/1113 on ingenious and loaded vipermod +.25 volt and fixed my skipping.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildland:
Interesting - when I got the skipping on beta 3, it happened across all governors as well (smartass, interactive, ingenious were all I tried) and it happened while I had the GPS running (a condition which I know takes higher voltages)...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] csseale:
Beta 7 seems flawless so far. Awesome work Mad Chad.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chad0989:
Odd that you get it across governors... What radio/rom are you guys running? 3g or wifi? And it absolutely doesn't happen on 4/19? What about beta 2?

Lots of questions, I know. I'm just trying to figure out the conditions to replicate it because I don't seem to have the issue. Running 4.08 radio and nightly 88 and streaming over wifi. I did have it previously before I made the scaling more aggressive.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] rlacrossjr:
Running CM7 Nightly90

2.15.10.05.06 Radio

Pandora and Slacker on 3G and changing to other governors did not help skips, but to see if it was something else for a test I reflashed your 4192011 kernel and smooth as butter on playback no skips. This was with running internet radio then say opening browser(skip), tap bookmark link(skip), then closing(skip). So then I reloaded Beta7 and added vipermod +.25 and smooth as butter. I even did the internet radio,ran Titanium backup, and went through my bookmarks on dolphin browser. NO SKIPS..

I only used beta's 1,2,6,test1,test2, and 7. You were putting them out to fast for me to keep up on worknights.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildland:
I've never gotten the music skip with 4/19, but it was pretty regular on one of your betas (looking at download dates, I think #6), though, being on a different CM7 nightly, and running a recent update of PowerAmp, I wasn't able to directly attribute it to a kernel issue (especially since I was getting it across all governors).

Doing a little research, it looks like the setup I had when I was getting the skipping was:

beta6 kernel (tried ingenious 128/883, ingenious 245/883, smartass 245/883, smartass 128/883, interactive 128/883 if I remember correctly)

CM7 Nightly 85

Radio 2.15.00.07.28

Playing music from emmc with PowerAmp

recording a gps track with My tracks (so running the gps full time)

no voltage tweaks

3g on

wifi on but not connected

I was using your 4/19 stable (128/883 smartass) when I went running yesterday (and on numerous other occasions), and didn't get the music skip.
