What else would you like to know. Full wipe, install rom (n39), kernel, font, boot animation. Then boot up. It will boot for about a minute then go back to boot animation and repeat.

What other useful information can I give?
[EVO 4G Android Development] algirnavi451:
That is normal charging. I fully charge in about 3 hours (Battery Monitor Widget Number). You might need to clear battery stats and see what happens.

The smartass governor is supposed to "learn" how you use the CPU and scale it accordingly and more according to the load your phone needs. SavagedZen makes the phone sleep better (saving battery) and scales the CPU a lot more conservatively (people complaining that it doesnt go above 768 MHz). Basically you need a very big load on your phone to scale from 768 MHz to 990 MHz. I always use SavagedZen governor on this kernel and never have any issues. Runs smoothly and great battery life

EDIT: Got beat to it
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
The only people with issues seeme to be on the latest CM7 nightly, additionally posting the contents of /proc/last_kmsg would be helpful :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChickenArise:
Nightlies newer than 39, tested up through 41, all have issues for me. SZ 2.0.0 + CM N39 is fairly good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pastert33:
I'm running 2.0 bfs version and the only problem I have is when my phone is plugged in, if I boot it up it will be extremely laggy almost like its locked up. Well unplug and all seems fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] twiz0r:
I am running n39, not the latest. How do I post that, I have never had to do that.

I'm assuming that's a folder on the phone, but if I can't boot into a ROM how do I look at it? Would it be ok if I boot using stock kernel to post, or would that defeat the purpose then?

Thanks for the help
[EVO 4G Android Development] twiz0r:
Thanks for posting this!! This has been my problem I've been having this morning. I usually leave my phone plugged in all the time when I'm at work, so I didn't think anything of it.

I now unplugged my phone and tried to boot back up. Works fine at the moment. One thing related to this, when my phone was plugged in the boot time was a lot longer also.

Thanks again!

[EVO 4G Android Development] twiz0r:
you're not getting high system usage? Even after using gps for something?

Swyped from my cyanogenized and gingerbreaded EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] wd20293:
SZ 2.0 BFS is showing as CFS in about, is it indeed a bfs?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
Try this in terminal emulator:

dmesg | grep -i "BFS"

That'll tell you if it's BFS or not, hopefully i didnt make that mistake :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] teomorell:
Same here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wd20293:
HMMMM now I feel real stupid, is it SU command first ? (did not work) or just enter command ? ( did not work)

and to think I used to ( mid 90's) hack pc's LOL
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
That's my mistake I guess, accidentally did something when I built so it really isn't BFS

perhaps why there's a few people with issues.

Any who, 2.0.1 is ready to be built anyway. Some mmc updates from motorola and some things in mach-msm that didn't get updated have been updated for 2.6.38
[EVO 4G Android Development] algirnavi451:
And I was excited that BFS was working on my phone :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
what do you guys recommend for the best governor settings? i tired smartass, ondemand and conservative and they all do not seem to do well with battery life, i get some lag as well. the only setting that works for me is interactive on 245/998.

is this a decent governor setting to have? i want to maintain stock speed but get good battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
It depends on the phone really.

ondemand should definitely be faster than smartass/conservative/savagedzen. Interactive is similar to smartass in design, and for me is the best performance/battery life combination.

But for me, ondemand, conservative, smartass, sz, conservative, and interactive all do pretty well with battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wd20293:
Thanks drove me crazy, I can tell BFS from CFS with CM7 anyhow thanks

finally helping in all this

SZ2.0

I've been running SZ 2.0 for 2 days now ...no issues

thanks so much!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] taadow1030:
14 hours later (GPS & maps for ~10 min, wifi all day @ work, 3g during commute,web browsing off and on all day, one 7 min call, 8 or so YouTube videos) I'm at 20% remaining. Awesome work fellas. Display on time @ 5 hours

CM7 N37

Setcpu with profiles

Hardware version 3

Background data off (I sync everything with exception of email manually)

Viperboys 100 undervolting script

S-Z kernel 2.0 CFS

Second day running this combo. Hopefully even better battery life tomorrow.I hope others can benefit from these as I have.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lento10:
Does anyone have a problem with playing video on 3g, example skipping? On wifi the video is very smooth.
[EVO 4G Android Development] taadow1030:
I had YouTube skipping on later nightlies. That and better battery is why I went back to N37.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lento10:
Thank you for the information
[EVO 4G Android Development] dirkyd3rk:
That's exactly when the skipping started for me right after #37. I'm.still on #37 with the 1.1.0 SZ about to give the 2.0 a shot it. Last time I tried the cfs and bfs my phone wouldn't boot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
could be sprint's dodgy network too. but yeah i also noticed network 3g slow downs when running the kernel. not sure if it's related or not?

what do the devs feel is the best governor settings for this kernel?
[EVO 4G Android Development] davidc23:
Sz governor
[EVO 4G Android Development] tsatrom:
Me too. This kernel is awesome!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dgomez720:
I have tried various ROM/ Kernel Combos but i love the SZ ROM as well as they're Kernel. Awesome gents.. very awesome
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
so in version 2.0 sbc is on by default right? no user intervention needed?
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Yes.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
I'm going to try and get 2.0.1 up tomorrow, it's pretty fast :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] xhazyx:
2.0 is the smoothest kernel I've run on my phone.... hope you guys get the dump_image issue resolved
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
had a weird issue upon rebooting my phone where it froze on the bootscreen then took over a minute to load launcher pro, i was stuck at a blank screen. im trying out titmat today to see if the issue happens again. i also noticed 2.0 may have issues with sbc as usually my battery will stay at 100% for over an hour or more. but now it sees to start to drop down faster than normal.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aimbdd:
Did you try fully charging and wiping battery stats? I think, that installing the kernel wipes stats, so if you aren't fully charged when you do that... you can mess up the calibration.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
i charged it all night long with the same results. i also fully wiped before flashing it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] adma84:
what is the recommended procedure for calibrating battery? You just fully charge and then reset into recovery and wipe stats? Seems too easy...
[EVO 4G Android Development] xhaui:
Then fully discharge....
[EVO 4G Android Development] adma84:
for anyone else who cares: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Troubleshooting#Battery_recalibration
[EVO 4G Android Development] ttkyles:
perplexed

wow I used the 1.0 SZ kernel and wimax work perfect in Phila.Now with the 2.0 version doesn't even stay on.Well no big deal 4G drains battery anyway .I just like testing functionality.

Oh by the way 2.0 is blazing fast for me might have to buy the team a beer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lopezpm:
1.0.1 was still the best one made, for some reason with the last two my battery doesn't last as long.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aimbdd:
1.0.1 was undervolted the most. It caused instability for some, though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
I had to raise the undervolt for stability considerations, I want this kernel to work for everyone.

If you want the same undervolt as 1.0.1, flash the -50mV from viperboy, or try for more

I raised it to 925, and then in 2.0 i raised it to 950 because 925 still doesn't work for everyone - although it works for most.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lento10:
I flashed the -50 with no problems, but it all depends on your phone. I tried the -75 and my phone got stuck on the splash screen. My recommendation start with the -75 and go down.
[EVO 4G Android Development] INebilim:
is this a script that can be edited?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
I posted a link to his thread in the OP, you just flash it and it places an init script that lowers the havs undervolt, depending on which one you flash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] taadow1030:
Or you can flash 1.0.1 AND Viperboy's undervolting script and live dangerous like me! So far, no issues. CM7 N37, HDWR 3, script 100, CFS,Conservative Governor. No lag!
[EVO 4G Android Development] sanjsrik:
I just flashed the latest kernel 2.6.38.3 after doing full wipes 2x of everything and even running Calkulin's WIPE_ALL, and now, I boot only into bootloader white screen. No matter if I do a battery pull.

Anyone know what's going on?
[EVO 4G Android Development] algirnavi451:
After you deleted everything did you forget to flash a ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChickenArise:
I've had a few issues, but nothing that a battery pull followed by a wipe of cache and davlik can't fix
[EVO 4G Android Development] sanjsrik:
I have savaged ZEN (RC2). Everything was fine until I flashed the 2.0 Kernel. Everything even flashed fine.

I nand restored back to the pre-kernel ROM Savaged Zen RC2.

Was hoping someone would have an idea what's going on.
[EVO 4G Android Development] algirnavi451:
When you flash a kernel only wipe dalvik and cache. If you wipe Data you wipe the ROM and therefore you dont have a boot image for your phone
[EVO 4G Android Development] algirnavi451:
2.0.1?

I see it in the changelog however it is not available to download?
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
so wait for it to be released..
[EVO 4G Android Development] -viperboy-:
Thanks for linking back to my UV Mod in the OP! :D I hope it's working well for eveyone on SZ.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChickenArise:
Is this what happens when the SZ team gets more dilligent about their changelog? :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
lol, the kernel is done and built, but it's not in the database on the mirror yet which is what I'm waiting for before i edit the OP further.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sanjsrik:
See, I searched the thread and even the SavagedZen site, for what to wipe when flashing a kernel only and found nothing. Last time I flashed a kernel it was through ADB.

I'm still fairly new at this and figured there would be instructions in the first couple of posts on how to flash a kernel.

Thank you so much, this really did help.

Has anyone else been getting 2-3 reboots right after flashing this kernel? I was writing an email and reboot, I waited for the reboot to finish, and REBOOT.

That was it and then i let everything startup as normal.

Anyone else seeing really slow SD card speeds or the SD card being said it's not there?
[EVO 4G Android Development] algirnavi451:
I have had one reboot this morning but no I haven't gotten any besides that. I'm running CM7 7.0.0.

The SD card speeds are good for me. I'm writing at 5MB/s with my class 4 SD card.
[EVO 4G Android Development] twiz0r:
Did you have the phone plugged in when it was booting? I had that happen to me when plugged in.

For sf card speed issue install dual mount sd. And if you mount in recovery it will be normal speed.

[EVO 4G Android Development] keejung:
ok sorry i have tried to find an answer, when i use this kernel 2.0 and 1.1 both flash great and i have no problems except for one

when i use the browser on the phone and also i tried dolphin hd, while im connected to wimax the data is really messed up. most pages wont load, or cant finish loading, good example is the savage zed download page wont show the links or any information at all, when im on wifi i have no problems.. any suggestions, i already redownloaded and reflashed to make sure that wasnt the problem
[EVO 4G Android Development] taadow1030:
Your issue may be ROM related and not kernel related. Please check your ROM 's thread to see if others are having wimax issues as well. I have experienced great and terrible page loads with CM7 (depending on the nightly).
[EVO 4G Android Development] keejung:
im on the stable cm7, ive stayed away from the nightly builds due to the fact that may not be working... when im on tiamat or the cm kernel no problems..... if i would go to any nighly build any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] xhazyx:
#39.... with nightlies after that I've got random reboots and battery life issues
[EVO 4G Android Development] wd20293:
2.01 going up today?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sanjsrik:
I've had to downgrade back to 1.10, or whatever the last release was. Every time I go into market with 2.0 installed, the device freezes and reboots.

This isn't fun when all you're trying to do is look to update your applications.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkdude36:
i've gone 1 day 10 hours with 12 percent left. yes, it's been pretty light usage, and it actually went two nights without being plugged in so it was sleeping most of the time, but damn this kernel can let the phone sleep with loosing only like 1 percent. this is all with some games, a bunch of texting, some calls, and other stuff. thanks guys.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Funkmon:
Same! But mine also freezes sometimes on startup. I went to Tiamat temporarily.

CM7 final, hardware 4.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
Anyone have a hint as to when 2.0.2 is gonna be out. The change log in op says its been done as well as 2.0.1 but when u go to website its only at 2.0.0.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aimbdd:
Mine does neither of those things. What rom are you both using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] s2kdriver:
I'm the opposite. tiamat freezes on me, but sz 2.0.0 was ok. Same hardwarw, cm7, n51, weird. Just goes to show just how different phones can be.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zuzonline:
I didnt use the 2.0 kernel for long and had to go back to 1.1.0 because when I flashed the 2.0 kernel somehow all my apps that were on the extended SD partition (using s2e app for cm7) were gone or inaccessible. I had ADW EX installed and it was gone and back to the old ADW (Im guessing it was installed in the extended partition).

When I flashed SZ kernel 1.1.0 back, everything worked fine again.

Im using CM7.0.0 final and flashed SZ 2.0 with clockworkmod 2.6.1(whatever the stable cm recovery 2.6.??? is)

Zuz
[EVO 4G Android Development] MizzouBrent:
I just switched over to 2.0 with CFS. I was running the conservative governor at first because that's what I was running on my previous kernel (Tiamat) and I noticed that now that I have switched the governor to SavagedZen, I have to hold my power button for like 2 seconds for the screen to come on. With the SZ kernel and a conservative governor (245/245 screen off profile) it powers on normally.

Is this the intended function of the SZ governor?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
No, it's an issue with smartass tunables, they just aren't quite right which is why some people get screen wake delay, but the screen off profile with another governor should eliminate the issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Funkmon:
Mine did that in the SZ ROM, but in no others.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MizzouBrent:
Weird I've never had an issue with smartass or SZ governors in the past. Usually if I had a random screen wake issue I could just drag my finger across the screen but for this the only thing that works is holding down the power button.

Running kings gb r3.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Funkmon:
I'm dittoing this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LancerEVA06:
Dont know if anyone has tried this, but on 2.0.0 when I insert my HDMI cable, my phone freezes then boots. If I leave the cable in, it just continously boot loops. Works find on CM stock Kernel and SZ 1.1.0.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
I'm working on it. Haven't worked on anything all weekend as it's the holidays (and the weekend). Anyway, i have a bug to fix before it can be built.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
No hurry man I was just currius and excited. Im a flashaholic when it comes to flashing updated kernals
[EVO 4G Android Development] djR3Z:
How can we get back CM Settings and still use this kernel? I liked having all the options, but now we don't have them??
[EVO 4G Android Development] keejung:
i dont know what you guys did, but i can finally use sz kernel on new cm7.0.2.... thank you
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlueHarford:
the kernel wouldnt take options away from a ROM, unless the kernel made a system variable which CM was looking for. which i would highly doubt
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChickenArise:
I've used 2.0.0 with every nightly (I think? may have missed one) since it came out. I've never lost the CM Settings. Something else must be causing the problems, but I haven't seen that issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
The CM settings don't have any options that depend on the kernel, and if it did this kernel was just rebased on CM's kernel so it would work anyway.

Anyway, 2.0.2 is on the mirrors :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lento10:
Cool, will give it a try now

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlueHarford:
these are now downloadable from our mirror...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Funkmon:
I'm scared to flash. :P. Did you guys figure out what that issue was with the market not working?
[EVO 4G Android Development] cheflarry:
The kernel has nothing to do with the market
[EVO 4G Android Development] kshiue18:
The cfs version of 2.0.2 is down
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lento10:
The market works fine for me. The kernel won't mess up the market.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChickenArise:
I've not had any market issues - did you manage to wipe gapps when updating your ROM? I've had it happen to me before under strange circumstances.

2.0.2 has been solid so far. I've got a few things left that I'd like to test between CM7.0.2+SZ 2.0.2, but it's certainly working well enough since flashing it moments after it went up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rockky:
Is 2.0.2 not to be used with devices using Wimax? I don't see Wimax in the kernel header.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
No they all support wimax
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlueHarford:
We're removing the obvious... everything will support wimax and sbc and GB for kernels that have those features... no need to make the header long if there is only 1 choice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] androidEVOlution:
2.0.0 & 2.0.2 both freeze at the homescreen after boot, then reboot, rinse, repeat.
[EVO 4G Android Development] algirnavi451:
Wipe dalvik and cache before flashing?

Try BFS and CFS versions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aph:
Finally decided to properly calibrate my (stock) battery, and got approx 35 hr battery life.

Didn't do anything special to manipulate this, just took my calls and text messages (Swyped), played games and tethered as usual. Just didn't charge it at night to see how long it would go.

Gotta love it...

(more images as attachments)
[EVO 4G Android Development] keejung:
i was wondering what you guys think... when i flash cm 7.0.2 and reboot, then go back and wipe cache and davik and then flash sz 2.0.2 (like when you switch between kernels) i get issues.. internet refuses to work on wimax, but when i do factory reset, wipe cach and davik, then flash cm 7.0.2 and immediantly flash sz 2.0.2 and then reboot it works fine.... any suggestions why this makes a difference

by the way using clockworkmod and have #4 hardware
[EVO 4G Android Development] cLOUDFAn:
for those who have been having 100% running google service problem (i have been having that problem since 1.0.0, any other kernel works fine)

give 2.0.2 and cm7.0.2 a try

flash both today (from 7.0.0 w/o full wipe)

problem seems to be solved
[EVO 4G Android Development] algirnavi451:
I wish I had such a strong signal on my phone :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] algirnavi451:
It was the GPS driver. It wouldnt shut off even when GPS was turned off. Fixed in 7.0.2 or you can flash the nighly 39 GPS driver that has been floating around.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cLOUDFAn:
i only had problem with sz kernel (1.0.0+, 0.2.1 was fine)

any other kernel (cm stock or tiamat) works fine

so i guess it wasn't the gps driver

anyway

glad to see it's solved
[EVO 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Using cfs 2.0.2....any workaround or solution for the delay when turning the screen on with the power button?
[EVO 4G Android Development] twiz0r:
Are you using a screen off profile?

Swyped via my cyanogenized and gingerbreaded EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] MizzouBrent:
Every time I try one of the newer SZ kernels, my wimax will occasionally get stuck at turning off and can only be fixed by a reboot. Anybody know of a fix for this? I feel like SZ gives me great battery life but this bug is pretty frustrating for me
[EVO 4G Android Development] zuzonline:
If you are using a screen off profile I have my minimum at 384, max at 422 (on demand), So my battery went from over 48 hours to over 48 hours with same type of small usage... In other words, you most likely wont see much difference with your battery if you increase your min a little on the screen off profile.

Frustrates me too and it happens once in a while, I also notice the speed slowing alot after a few mins tethering on 4G, I usually have to turn pdanet off and on again... Im not using the built in USB tethering because I didnt have the patience to find the drivers...

Im still using the version 1.1.0 because somehow 2.0 messed up my apps that were in my extended sd partition (used S2E for CM7)

I was wondering if anyone else got that problem too (with the apps in the extended partitions not showing up)
[EVO 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Yes screen off profile
[EVO 4G Android Development] iahk:
Yea, this actually happened to me on miui too when I flashed the new build (1.4.22) on friday. I didn't think much of it because I thought it was something I did or overlooked and the variable of it possibly being the rom was in play too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] spaz mk will:
I always flash my kernels directly after flashing a rom. Just do it that way and you shouldn't have issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zuzonline:
did you try the newest kernel? If so was that an issue?
[EVO 4G Android Development] iahk:
Yep, I updated to it earlier today and everything looks good so far.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Funkmon:
Flashed new kernel, still froze the device on startup, after letting it sit, market didn't work. Reflashed Google apps. Market still didn't work. Reflashed kernel. Froze on startup, would not respond.

Nanded, full wipe, flash clean cm7.02.1, flash kernel, froze on startup.

Flash Tiamat, works fine. Restored backup, flashed Tiamat, works fine. I don't actually LIKE tiamat, but I don't feel like running a pre 2.0 version of SZ.

Bug on Evo, hardware 4, CM7 to current, SZ 2.0, 2.02.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
What recovery are you using? Any chance of a dmesg or last_kmsg

I think our updater script stuff doesnt work well with pre-3.0 clockworkmod, but josh updated the updater-script today so hopefully the next build may work with kernel manager and CW properly
[EVO 4G Android Development] Funkmon:
Oh, should have mentioned. Clockworkmod 3.0.0.5. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Are these prerelease kernels? Every version I've tried is problematic except CDs 0.2.0...when will they be releasing a stable build?
