Lou-- You are amazingly creative and productive. I just bought you a beer via PayPal. One more thing regarding SetCPU: with any kernel that slows way down (245 and slower) when screen is off, any automated backup, podcasting, map navigating--just about any chip intensive function you might want do with the screen off is going to lag severely and perhaps not run at all. Before I reinstalled SetCPU, Titanium backup would be running at a snails pace all night and waking up in the morning, when I turned my screen back on it was still unfinished. SetCPU enables a setting when phone is charging that allows full speed (or whatever speed you want to max out at). So, charging the phone at night, all the background tasks get done quickly. It might be a good idea for the next kernel update to enable full chip speeds when the device is plugged in--even with screen off.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] unreal2k:
Thanks HeyItsLou for the #8 Kernel. I'm using it with setcpu (i know i know you said not to but i'm experimenting) and i set it to conservative scaling with screen off at 384/245 and it feels smooth and nice. This thing is dabomb! I'm at 76% and it's almost time to go home from work :D (it would be around 50% with my usage)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 999vulcan:
huh?

can't find whatcha talking about
[Droid Incredible Android Development] umphreak:
Love the Yes song titles for each of the kernels. Huge Yes fan here, one of my favorite bands. :-)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stonyman72:
Can anyone confirm 8 working with warm 2.2
[Droid Incredible Android Development] caleris:
Yes, for me and it is working without issues. I did wipe cache before flashing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] stonyman72:
Awesome thanks going to give it a try...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] WormDoes:
I got boot loops with 7 and 8 on RLS5
[Droid Incredible Android Development] infamousxsniper:
8 seems to be working on my 5.2.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cuzzinz:
I am lovin #7 I play a lot of emulators so I prefer to have 3-10 multitouch.

Battery life is great...I have managed to squeeze out over 16 hours of battery today with moderate use:

30 min of voice calls

5 min of google maps

10-20 texts

Some google talk

Wifi on all day

Gps on

Sync on

- gmail

- exchange

a little web surfing

You get the picture...

As of now I am at about 16 hours 45 min with 9% left. I would say that is pretty good.

With #6 I was racking in about 14-15 hours before it would die completely.

GJ Lou!!!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jkhonea:
My stupid question for the night. I see the note about Wireless N support. I am running the rEVOlution Beta and #8. What else do I need to do to actually engage the Wireless N? It picks up the G side of my router at the house but not the N.

Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
I actually noticed the same thing with #8 on a DInc running Virtuous v3.2...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jrv331:
How do you check what band your picking up?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] inittowinit:
Yet again I'm going back to #4. I'm running senseless 1.0 and saw more lag and problems with the upgrade to #8. Not sure why, but if it's not broke don't change kernals.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sabbotage:
Is your N band 5Ghz? If so the phone won't see it. I have a netgear that is dual band N and My phone runs at N speeds on the 2.4Ghz band, but it cant see the 5Ghz band.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jkhonea:
Ahh, that's probably it. It is a dual band with G at 2.4 gHz and the N at 5. That explains it, thank you.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] vwftw:
Anybody? I'm running #8 now with the same issue as before.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
Ok so I currently have #8 installed on my wife's DInc and she's been getting great battery life *however* she's started noticing some issues.

She's started using Pandora a lot lately but unfortunately (I think) b/c of the aggressive battery management (i.e. the disabling of 3G when the screen is off for a certain amount of time) it makes using any app that relies on a steady 3G connection impossible.

Are all of the Lou kernels like this? The only options I can think of are either switch kernels (which would suck b/c the Lou kernels are great) or have her buy Tasker to create a profile to not disable 3G when Pandora is running.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GooTz66:
I haven't really used Pandora in awhile but I was with Lou's earlier kernel builds and had zero issues. I will have to test out and see if I have the same issues.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
Forgot to note that her DInc is running Virtuous v3.2 along with Lou's #8. To be fair she just started using Pandora recently so this never popped up with #6, other kernels or Virtuous v3.1 or v3.2.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GooTz66:
How long does it go for before it starts to cut out?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
That I'm not sure of but she says it "feels" like every 1-2 songs with her Dance/Techno station so I'm guessing maybe after 10-15 minutes?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Multitouch with Lou's #7 working fine

I used the modified recovery discussed by Chad 0989 here, following which I flashed Lou's #7 (I had been running #4, then #7 without any problems).

Now I've got 10 touch-points on my Amoled Incredible.

I don't know what I'm going to do with all of them....but there they are!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] killermonkey71:
I just ran Finch Radio on Pandora for a half hour on Skyraider 3.5.5 with Lou's #8, and it ran flawlessly. I made sure wireless was off so it just used the 3G network. I don't know what to tell ya. Maybe reinstall the kernel and be sure to wipe the dalvik cache??
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cuzzinz:
Hey can anyone tell me what I could change... possibly a minimum setting. Makes my adw launcher ex lag sometimes when waking up.

Oh btw... I dont wanna run setcpu lol. I have been getting 15+ hours without it so I dont wanna install anything else. Just wanna change a simple config file like I said just a minimum.

Hopefully someone can just point me in the right direction. :-D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jrv331:
No answer the first time gonna try again. How do you know what speed your connecting at when connecting to a woreless network. I connect to several throught the day and like to know if one is better that the other.

Thats my stupid question for the day.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ptsmith24:
I use the speed test app for both cell and wifi tests.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jrv331:
Im sorry I worded it wrong - what band your on. I know there are at least two N networks around me and want to see if I can take advantage of their speed. Just looking to see if I have the wireless fix mentioned a few posts ago.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] daddyscooltv:
newbie ?.. I am running lou's #6 if i want to run #8 do i just copy #8 to my sd card and flash it from recovery? Does this overwrite any of my phones setting? It seems like it takes me forever to setup the phone the way I like it.

Sorry for the dumb ?'s :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GooTz66:
You got it. Just remember to wipe dalvik first. Flashing a new kernel will not overwrite any settings, however its good habit to do a nandroid whenever installing a new ROM or kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] daddyscooltv:
Thanks for help... I just flashed it.....All is good so far..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GooTz66:
Awesome! It's a great kernel and Lou just made it stock for his latest Redemptive rEVOlution 2.2 ROM

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Goalieman009:
I feel slightly dumb asking this, but I have searched the thread and the search feature also doesn't seem to work right now..so..

Just installed Senseless 2.0. When I check the software info on my phone it says #1 at the end of the kernal. I had #4 running prior to installing Senseless 2.0 and I don't remember if it said #4 or not under software information..so, I installed #8 through recovery and it still says #1 at the end. It also says BFQ which makes me thing #8 is installed but I'm unsure now. So..did I do something wrong?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbdan:
Nope your golden ;)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Goalieman009:
thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Tom Kellogg:
I'm sorry if this is a bit OT, but I can't find the answer anywhere else. I am running Redemption 2.3 and Lou #8 on my Inc. Wonderful! I want to clean up my wife's Eris ... root it and flash a ROM like the one I am now using. Can I do this? Is there an issue with the Eris that it can't run on Lou's ROMs or am I good to go? Thanks.

RNDIS Support?

HeyItsLou,

I'll give you $10 to include RNDIS support so wired tethering works.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rshannon:
Anyone else having trouble connect to wifi? I had #8 running a few days ago with no problems, but i had to do a restore so i installed #8 again today and now i can't connect to wifi.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] michaelbsheldon:
Maybe a clean install of your preferred rom followed by install

of HeyIt'sLou. I've had problems like yours with WIFI after restores

and now prefer clean installs with all their extra work to make

my Incredible perfect.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Have run Lou's #4, #8 and currently #7 and have not had any problems with wifi connection.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
I'm talking about 3G...not wifi ;) Not every place has a wifi hotspot setup. My wife has experience this issues consistently whenever she goes to the gym or goes on a walk and wants to use Pandora to listen to music.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Ah, JagoX, my response was to rshannon, who mentioned the wifi. My bad for not quoting the message with the reply.

I understand (and have heard about) the issues with streaming music and Lou's kernel's. I guess you can always use SetCPU to override the kernel when streaming music. I'm wondering whether something like Tasker could be used to activate SetCPU when Pandora is running.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
No worries :) I actually use SetCPU and Tasker on my DX and both work great but I don't think SetCPU can set per app profiles.

I've been wondering about Tasker being able to throttle CPU stored in apps but haven't found anything.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rshannon:
Well i did a clean wipe and installed virtuous 3.2 over again and wifi is still not working. So I think I will reset my router and see what happens. Its weird though, because my itouch and my brother's fascinate are connecting to the wifi no problem.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GooTz66:
No, Lou's ROMs are for the Incredible and cant run on the Eris. You may want to check out the Eris forum for custom ROMs for your wife's Eris
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bikercr:
I Recommend NOT using SetCPU with any of my kernels let the CPU governor do it's thing. All of what makes my kernels special is equipped out of the box and does not need assistance from SetCPU​

Suggestion:

Next iteration, could you have a screen off profile that's around 380-460 on the fast side? This would eliminate the need for installing SetCPU in order to avoid stuttering and lagging when running programs with screen off. 245/245 is little too slow to work smoothly.

Thanks for all your Incredible work!

[Droid Incredible Android Development] hachamacha:
Lou,

Do these (any of them) kernels have rndis for wired tether enabled? (not wireless)

Edit:

OK, that's fine. But: Just so we've got some control: Where are the scripts we can edit to change things like the screen off profile. I doubt that's hard-coded, but could be wrong.

Thanks, Hashi

PS: Off-topic : I've never been notified of a response to any of my few subscribed threads on XDA. Does this feature work here for anyone and if so, does anyone have any guesses as to what I may have missing from my profile.

Kernel flash???

Anyone help with the reason why when I flash one of these kernels with CM7 nightly, when my Inc reboots everything loads but my touch screen doesn't work,

If anyone could hold my hand through this traumatic experience it would be much appreciated
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CLeDInc:
+1 to GPU+ games seem just a bit smoother but the kernel is amazingly smooth and stable as is...amazing job
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbdan:
Thanks again Lou. I'll report back on this one after I put it through the ringer ;)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Phlarp:
Getting crazy fast charge times with this kernel, is that to be expected? (compared to stock, ziggy and KK)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dimebagdan65:
Been running this since a few minutes after Lou finished it and I'm beyond impressed! My phone now sips battery like a southern gent with a sweet tea haha. Lou comes through once again! Now bring on the Senseless Redemption! Lol it's all I want for Christmas!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] meekehleh:
Me too man. I haven't bump charged and reset battery stats yet though. However, this kernel is incredibly smooth and snappy with fantastic battery life. Thank you Lou. This is my favorite kernel -- I have tried others and they never seem to be lag free (chad, ziggy).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sd5500:
disregard post please.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jkhonea:
Odd question, when I download #4, I'm showing it in Explorer and on the phone as a .bin file (I'm not changing the name, it's doing that on it's own). Anyone else seeing this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dimebagdan65:
Same here, F5'ing like a fiend now lol

[Droid Incredible Android Development] JSmoove3g4:
ive never flashed a kernel before and i just rooted my inc. today and flashed with Lou's RR 2.1.3 sense today im looking at a Viva! 2.0 Clear Black and Blue theme...(downloading now) i use my phone heavy everyday will this help me with my battery life and speed? so far i am loving everything that Lou does
[Droid Incredible Android Development] HeyItsLou:
:) Thanks Man! This kernel contains optimizations that the stock kernel does not have which will increase battery life overall speed and stability also offer features like Wireless N support for your wireless N router as well as TUN, CIF and EXT4 support.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JSmoove3g4:
thanks bro!!! im about to flash it now i'll let you know how it goes
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dimebagdan65:
Holy shnitzel!

I don't think I've ever said "DAAAAAAAAAMN!" as many times as I have when goofing around with #4... #1 had amazing battery life, I missed the memo for #2 and #3, but #4 has completely blown my mind! I use LP+ (as many of you know) and just recently enabled the 3D app drawer for fun (And cause it gives a good idea of just how fast/snappy/responsive your setup is, especially with the fly-in effect enabled. With the #4 kernel, the icons zoom in like the friggin Blue Angels and then scrolling through looks like liquid it's so quick! Unfreakinbelievable Lou! What's more, it gets pretty decent Linpack and Quadrant scores too, if you're into that sorta thing lol I'm gonna have to start breakin out the Jungle Book references and start callin you King Louie! Who else has all the bases covered? (ROM, theming AND kernels!) With this, you have for sure cemented yourself in the pantheon of The Top D'Inc Developers, hands down...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] HeyItsLou:
As usual your references crack me up lol thanks buddy! It's all about the user experience. I want to provide an aestically pleasing ROM with Sexy Sense. A smooth, fast, stable, energy efficient kernel and Roms that offer options without compromising stability and usability.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JSmoove3g4:

[Droid Incredible Android Development] KGBxxx:
Just change the name to something .zip with astro or similar file manger app. Should be fine then.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] spence341:
Man things move too fast. I just flashed the 1st version a day and half ago, wake up this morning to find V4...:eek: not that I am complainging though:D.

Do you every sleep Lou? Oh yeah, it though I saw one of your screen shots with 2.1.4... are you testing a new update? I think Senseless in on the adgenda today.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] GooTz66:
That is because these are Sense Kernels
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
I'm guessing you're trying a multi-touch kernel

If you aren't trying to flash one of Lou's multi-touch kernels, this reply isn't going to help you, but the symptoms you report are consistent with doing so.

There is a patched recovery done by Chad0989 which enables flashing Lou's multitouch kernels. See the thread here.

This is what worked for me (and many others.)

Try Chad0989's patched recovery located here, then reflash one of Lou's multi-touch kernels, assuming you are on an Incredible. That ought to do the trick.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Immikey:
Hey Lou, running #8 with SR 3.5 here and it runs great! Nice and smooth. Never thought I'd switch from #4 :)

I tried running #9 but for some reason my phone doesn't run BFS kernels very well.

But, thanks for all of your work Lou!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
Great work on the kernels! Out of all of the options available, which is the best for battery life? Would that be #9?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] POQbum:
Same ^ ^

I'm in search for a Kernel with overall best battery life but that also has decent performance.

Haven't tried any of these Kernels yet, anyone know how well they compare to Dec 23's version of "incredikernel"?

Would save me a few days of testing on my own :p!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Immikey:
I haven't done actual testing with #8, only really flashed the kernel and just used my phone, charged it whenever but I will say that from my impression #8 is up to par with #4. Both are my favorites and run great on MY phone. I tried Chad's kernel but I went back to #4 and ran that for quite sometime until #8 :)

But it really depends on your phone. #4 and #8 run amazing on my phone, but #9 doesn't quite mix well with my phone. I believe it's because of BFS. Just try out different ones, you can always flash and reflash to whatever you like. My recommendation is start out with #4 and base your opinion on that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
Thanks. I've heard mixed things about BFS ... maybe Lou will make a #10 with everything #9 has except for BFS.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
On SR 3.5. Just had 4 random reboots with #9.... may go back to #8 as I never had any with that (I left Chad's incredikernal due to random reboots). Not sure what caused it.... maybe BFS? I've been running the new kernel for about 8 hours. My battery was down to 11% (after a day of not much use so battery life doesn't seem that great on my 1700 mAh Sedio) but I don't see why my phone would suddenly reboot as I wasn't using it or opening any apps.
