Can somebody tell me if the flashable SBC off will work with 2.2.1?
[EVO 4G Android Development] raphenucleus:
I'm not sure if that will still work with SZ 2.2.1, but you can use SZManager to toggle it on and off as you please (you can probably just toggle it off, then uninstall the app if you want, but I'm not certain, so you might want to test that first). You can find the link for it in the OP or here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mwielgosz:
The backend to SBC and the method of enabling/disabling the feature has not changed since release. The commands are the same still so the zips, app, and manually.entering the commands should all work fine.

is it possible for me to get battery percentage in my status bar? I'm on EVO Deck with this SZ kernel. i had the stock CM kernel that comes with deck and had batt% but it went away when i flashed SZ
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lento10:
The kernel got nothing to do with the battery percentage. Check your settings, some roms after reboot will reset all your settings to original.
[EVO 4G Android Development] raphenucleus:
Go in to Settings>Advanced Settings>Interface>Status bar tweaks and check battery percentage. That will give you the battery percentage in your status bar; the icon wasn't there for me at first, checked and unchecked the option a couple of times and it reappeared (I'm also on Deck's with SZ). Alternatively, you can customize your own battery percentage status bar icon in the UOT Kitchen; it's very easy to use, just follow the directions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 18rmiller:
Ever since flashing SZ I don't have the battery % option in user interface. Also when I go back into HAVS settings it seems like they don't stick because there is nothing next to currently selected. If I pick one of them it is listed but if I back out and go back in it is not. I hit apply
[EVO 4G Android Development] mwielgosz:
Once you click apply, you can click "currently selected" to see which settings are active. I have plans to show the user what is selected via the radio buttons in the menu, just haven't had time yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadden:
my phone loves your kernels sbc with viperboys scripts
[EVO 4G Android Development] raphenucleus:
Did you wipe dalvik and cache before you flashed the kernel? If not, try that and see if it fixes it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 18rmiller:
G

I looked at that but don't really understand how to read it
[EVO 4G Android Development] 18rmiller:
I did. Twice

I just reflashed the kernel and I think I could see the change in current havs settings. I still don't get an option for battery percent though
[EVO 4G Android Development] mwielgosz:
The battery percentage is a cm option. Has nothing to do with the kernel whatsoever. If you're using our ROM and want battery percentage, you need to use a theme that supports it like Androidian-6-100 from our mirror.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 18rmiller:
Could you point me to a good DL link?

[EVO 4G Android Development] mwielgosz:
What ROM are you using
[EVO 4G Android Development] 18rmiller:


I was on Evo Deck. I switched to the SZ ROM and now it works. Only complaint is that battery drains quickly while using phone, like a couple percent a minute. Its great while idle though
[EVO 4G Android Development] xhaui:
That certainly isn't the ROM... there is something else going on there. I play full screen games for like a half hour at a time on SZ Mod and only lose a couple percent. Granted I do have an extended battery but still.. the three percent I lose would be like seven with a stock battery. Using the phone just for messaging and phone calls I lose like two percent an hour. ( I'm a pretty heavy user.) Check your battery stats.. I'm curious to know what is eating your battery so hard core.. I've never hear better battery life than on this ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Hey Devs, just curious ...

Is there any movement towards updating to 2.6.39? I've been running .39 for a while on my LMDE system, and its notably faster than .38, plus (while it doesn't fix the major power regressions that still exist) it is slightly better on battery. Also, just curious if any of you have experimented with 3.0 yet?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mwielgosz:
I've been running .39 on my laptop and now my PC for awhile now and I love it. Haven't tried 3.0 yet but that's because there isn't a whole lot of large changes compared to .39...not like it was between 2.4 and 2.6 (that was a crazy switch)

As far as updating the evo kernel, I'm really not the dev to ask, but I like talking about kernels and Linux in general :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Well I mean who doesn't love a rousing conversation about Linux kernels. I was under the impression that was the benchmark for defining a "good person".

Either way, I'm pretty new to the whole gig; I came in about 2.6.17, really only started paying attention around .32. But I've gotten pretty big into LMDE. If you're a Debian guy (which, most likely since your a guru, I assume your Gentoo or something), LMDE is pretty solid.

A bit off-topic, but my on topic question still stands. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] slimno19:

[EVO 4G Android Development] :
2.2.1 all the way.

Obi Wan, your my only hope!
[EVO 4G Android Development] mwielgosz:
I've never tried LMDE out, and yes you are correct in assuming that I'm on Gentoo. I have it on my two computers now, and have been running it on and off since right before 2.6 was released. I remember setting up my first gentoo box with 2.4, then once 2.6 became stable I switched over to it and there was a huge infrastructure change which lead to a big headache :).

The only time I'm not running gentoo is if I really want to try out another distro OR I have a need to get my computer up and running NOW.

Sorry for the off topic posts guys :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
Im using tamiat right now.. But i know Savagezen gets better battery life though
[EVO 4G Android Development] tbgreen89:
CFS or BFS?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lento10:
CFS is the safer, it works with a lot of phones. But I like the performance of BFS.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tbgreen89:
I am using the CFS one now and its smooth on miui.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xhaui:
BFS has some issues with randomly unmounting SD cards. I'd definitely sick with CFS, for now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] oOflyeyesOo:
Are they going to .8 sometime soon, with maybe some more tweaks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rsatmans:
Warning: Just my opinion, which is not based on any facts.

I would assume with the imminent release of linux kernel 3.0 stable within the next few weeks, the guys are waiting on that...

This Kernel shouldn't have any problems with CM 7.1 since its GB 2.3.4 right? Anyone that could report on their use with it would be great.

This is a great kernel, a real speed demon! the only thing keeping it from being the bomb is to allow it to enable wireless n for those who wish to do so. :(

[EVO 4G Android Development] aaanadie:
Hello,

I have CM7 nightly #118. I had Tiamat_Evo-v4.0.5-sbc and changed to SavagedZen-2.2.1-CFS-HAVS today.

Tiamiat worked very well but using Sygic 11.0.1 (latest) phone do not charge being plugged into charger.

I guess SZ do not have that issue, can someone confirm?

I was using Tiamat because is based on latest 2.6.38.8 and SZ is 2.6.38.7.

Thanks

Update: SavagedZen-2.2.1-CFS-HAVS worked perfect. I made a 4 hours trip today having phone plugged on charger, started 86% battery and finished 100%.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aaanadie:
I have CM7 nightly #119 with SavagedZen-2.2.1-CFS-HAVS and wireless N is working perfect to me.

If you use any rom based on latest ota 4.24.651.1 then you do not have wireless N and you cannot use custom kernel.

I get 54 Mbps in my home wifi if I use a non wireless N rom, like supersonic_4.24.651.1_barnaclesmod, fresh-evo-4.2.0.0, etc, but I get 65 Mbps on CM7 or MikG.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
Wireless n is not enabled in the rom, it is enabled in the kernel. Your evo is wireless n capable, but not wireless n enabled unless n has been enabled in the kernel. To my knowledge, theres only one aosp rom which currently has it and I dont remember which one. They probably used a hex editor using the old eclair hack and somehow added it back. I use the sz kernel and it is not wireless n enabled to my knowledge. If you know different, please direct me to the info. We are talking gingerbread here just to be clear.

[EVO 4G Android Development] aaanadie:
Why I get 65 Mbps if do not have wireless N ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
you can't be getting 65 actual throughout. If the kernel isn't n enabled, then it isn't possible. It might say wireless n knowing that the evo is an n device, but if the kernel is g then you can only get g throughput. Wireless n routers are backward compatible. G can connect to n because n drops down to g throughput to make the connection. Htc enabled n for froyo sense, then disabled it again for gingerbread. The kernel determines whether n is enabled or not.

Should I ignore "Link speed" detail shown above?

I know sometimes we get wrong notifications on PCs so why not in phones.

Update:

SavagedZen-2.2.1-CFS-HAVS is Wireless N enabled 100% sure.

I tested Tiamat_Evo-v4.0.5-sbc, GoDm0dE-v9 and SavagedZen-2.2.1-CFS-HAVS on my EVO 4G hardware 0003 with SetCPU. SavagedZen-2.2.1-CFS-HAVS was tested twice (started and finished testing with him) and must say this is best kernel I ever seen, best responsiveness and best battery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
sounds great, can you please show me where you know that the sz kernel is wireless n enabled? Nowhere in their changelogs do they ever say. My hw info section on my evo says that it is not.

[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:

I'm too lazy right now to look to see if N is actually enabled in this driver, i'm on east coast time :). I initially assumed it was based on the open source driver spec calls for b/g/n. I dont have an N router to really see if it is or not. So I can be totally full of it. :)

[EVO 4G Android Development] xsisbest:
So I've been forced to use the stock kernels on almost every rom I've ever tried. I have an evo with 0004 hardware version and for some reason.. anytime I try a kernel with HAVS it just will not run. Bootloops or just sit on splash screen. I wanna run this kernel so bad as I love sbc. The only kernel i was able to use other than stock was on a sense based rom and was Netarchy 4.3.2 CFS NO HAVS NO UV SBC and I had the best battery life. But it seems almost every other kernel has HAVS.. I just wish I knew what it was that my phone didn't like about it. I flashed the vipermod hoping to lower the voltages but I can't even boot to set it. Anyone have any advice for me? I was able to use Godmode's kernel too but it doesn't support usb tethering which I use alot so I had to go back to stock again. Currently running MIUI 1.7.1 Thanks to anyone that can offer up some advice!~

Forgot to mention.. I've tried 2.2.0 and 2.2.1 CFS kernels and both do the same. 2.2.0 actually makes it to bootnaimation about 1 minute in then just freezes.2.2.1 just sits at splash screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xsisbest:
So I answered my own question really.. I used vipermod's flashable clocks and It took me about 30 tries but I think I got it.. Won't know for a couple days if it will be stable but I was able to boot into the rom and check kernel version and go into the mod to check voltages.. I initially thought the -25mv was the key.. but after 5 minutes it reboot then got stuck on splash screen again.. I then retried every other undervolt and nothign worked so I did the +25mv and low and behold it's working.. Sucks I had to raise the voltage to get it to work though.. But at 975mhz it's still lower than stock.. Hopefully it hangs on but we'll see. Just thought I'd share my findings..

Where do I go to check on the settings of the anonymous statistic collection? I just flashed to this kernel and when the phone (Evo) first booted up I saw it on the top dock. It has now been a while and the icon has gone away. Where do I go to get it back and modify the settings if I need to?

[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
I've done it on my LMDE desktop running the .39-3 kernel, saw a 27% increase in battery life. Not sure that would directly translate to Android, but on mobile devices that utilize active state power management it makes a BIG difference.

Through some quick googling I found someone using it in an Android kernel:

http://android-x86.tarot.com.tw/?p=...ff;h=d6d385743463f38a0da899cd4607e526ad9a049f

Maybe someone that actually codes and understands git could submit the patch. I wish I could, but I don't have the skillz. :(

Idle power usage on my extended battery with this kernel and Deck 1.2:

Doing the math at 20 mA / 5 min = 11.5 days idle.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
Hey guys, 20mA is absolutely ridiculous ^^. I got as low as 40 which i thought was crazy.

Anyway, as you may know - I'm no longer on an evo 4g, but I'll still have an update soon, maybe the final one but probably not if something big happens.

I've been retreating from XDA because of the craziness and dumbness that is the evo 3d forum. I returned my e3d for a variety of reasons like call quality, data speed, light leak, software glitches (with language + keyboard, touchscreen stopped working in 1 spot too).

Anyway, over in that forum everybody with an e3d is "omgz this is the best phone ever, if you return it you're stupid and should die" So, I'll never be developing for the e3d ;) But im still alive, just in summer mode.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rsatmans:
Thank you for the hard work you have put into the Evo 4g community. You kernels have been great. Maybe you can wait and give us a linux 3.0 when it drops for your final hoorah.

BTW, I agree with with you, some people are hyping the e3d so much. I'm waiting for the sgsII to drop on Sprint.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Android 17:
What phone are you currently using then? I hope you'll update this every once in a while, it's the best kernel I've used for the EVO.

2.2.1 is still running pretty great though so I can understand the lack of updates in a while.

The EVO3D certainly seems overhyped as well, I'm happy with my EVO for the time being.
