Its not even that serious I don't see the whole issue its just 2 posts and 3 threads where TPF came and told them to stay out of his thread. Honestly who gives a F about TPF's work? If its good people will use it and that is to be seen. If anyone need any kernel's from faux or his roms then let me know I cURLed his projects.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ckisgen:
guys .. he's been burned out / worn down by all the BS that comes along with dev'ing for a while now. this was really just likely the straw the broke the cameltoes back.

my guess is he'll be back after he takes a break at some point. but that's merely a guess.

in the meantime, i don't think flooding his PM inbox and/or posting 342342 "i <3 you, please come home baby, WHY GOD WHY" messages on his threads are really going to make him come back any sooner, if at all.

if the guy wants to chill, let him chill.

(aka, all this crap isn't gonna blow over until everybody stops freaking out about it)

[myTouch 4G Android Development] TmpUsr:
It was set to private but he reopened it but still has his AOSP rom locked. Makes no diff its all cURLed as my crawler cached it. So if anyone needs it hit me up.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
Things have gotten quite out of hand indeed. If I have started this unintentionally then I apologize to the community. I DO NOT like to be threatened in an open public community. If you read the post from certain individual, he threatened me with "forum war" which I find extremely childish and I lost quite a bit of faith in the community. So instead of fighting this "war", I decided to stop the development to avoid the war and further degradation of this community.

However, I did not foresee the over reactions members of community have taken, so please stop all the "war" this individual wanted. I rather have peace than war.

The reason I removed the links because when I closed my github I was required to remove the links. I have NOW re-opened my github and all the files are now available to download again.

Thanks for the support.

come on faux really? he threatened forum war so your leaving? nobody gives a flying hell about what he thinks man. you've been around dev for the mytouch4g as long as ive been rooted and flashing custom roms. then some db comes along and threatens war so you leave. the community has your back faux, we know who does the hard work here. if you want to go then that is up to you, but know we always appreciate what you do. please don't let the words of one or two db ruin what you have done for this community.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] darinmc:
I would say a better way to phrase the voltage issue is to say that some phones have trouble with the undervolted kernel, using a stock voltage kernel COULD potentially relieve that stress and recreate the radio performance of the stock HTC mt4g kernel. I seriously doubt that there is a DIRECT relationship between voltage levels and signal strength. I could be wrong, of course, feel free to try. The more information faux has the better. The kernel is fantastic and appears to be a great fit with CM7, however testing has been relatively limited on this version since faux is unable to test it. Try it out, see what you find. Be specific.

I installed the new kernel today, 1.1. The performance hit using smartass is very harsh. Went from 2400 to sub 1900 at the same overclock prior to upgrade.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] smonme:
Ok guys this is for nightly #6 stock voltages no setcpu or profiles, alot and I mean alot of use on first run. Should get better (if I don't flash another nightly)

Mytouch 4g / CM7 / Smartass Kernel
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
Thanks, that was yesterday :o

Change to a different governor if you want to have high score in Quandrant... :p

I might tweak smartass some more, so maybe newer version will come...

Thank you....

Let me see what I can do to smartass to balance between battery and performance... You can ALWAYS change to a different Governor if you want performance such as: OnDemand, Interactive or Performance... It's a balancing act between battery life and performance...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Mistic99:
I was just surprised by the extent of the drop from one kernel version to the next. other than that it's been smooth. had a few freezes with version 1, but nothing I could replicate.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] graffixnyc:
My quadrant and linpack scores are higher on the stock cm 7 kernel clocked at 1.5 then this kernel clocked at 1.7. Both using interactive as the governor.

Also I get freezes when I have the min set at 246 and the high set higher than 1.7 but only when I use the ondemand or interactive gov. When I used smartass it runs fine. Why would it freeze o. One governor and not the other? Could there be an issue with the kernel and those governors?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mikejet:
If I didn't follow your tip of upping the Min to 1017 I wouldn't have been able to stop freezes under Interactive and Ondemand.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] graffixnyc:
That's the only way I can get it to not freeze at higher than 1.7. I'm thinking maybe those governors don't like a huge scaling jump from 246 to 1.8. I never really run it at 1.8 I'm doing it for testing purposes only. So on my phone min 246 max 1.8 with smartass gov works fine. Min 1018(and higher) 1.8 interactive/ondemand works fine Min < 1017 max 1.8 freezes my phone within 5 minutes.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
CM7 is using its own OnDemand and Interactive Governors. I don't know who originally modded them. They are quite different from my Sense ROM kernels. My Sense ROM users don't have issues with my versions of Governors.

If you guys want me to use my Sense versions' governors let me know... If there are enough demands for them I will incorporate them in the CM7 series.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] darinmc:
Just completed testing CM7 #5 with default kernel. Charging battery and will follow same procedure with faux stock 1.2b kernel and post results. Testing process takes about 1.5 hrs. Was actually impressed with nightly test results... Suppose we'll see how they match up.

I realize that 1.5 hrs isn't the best timeframe for testing a ROM or a kernel, but I wanted to get results that were as quantitative as possible. Since 5 ran smooth I won't mind using it for a day or so and see how it plays out, but at that length of time reproducing usage isn't within my patience.

I don't like talking about battery drain too much because it's so hard to compare both from a hardware and usage perspective, but I personally had incredible battery life with my stock ROM (several hours of video, audiobook running for 5+ hours, phone calls, xda app, texts, emails, and internet could last me between 24 and 36 hours). I have yet to see that kind of result from any custom ROM. I don't use wifi and only use GPS in the car when it's on charge, so I don't have much experience with either. I say all of this mainly so my usage habits are somewhat defined. I've ran that same stock set up for about 2 weeks in total, so it's been through the mud, i know what it's capable of.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jdkoren:
Looking forward to your results, even if they are anecdotal.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] darinmc:
So to begin, my test consisted of:

*Full battery.

*fastboot wipe of system and boot.

*wipe data/factory reset.

*wipe cache partition.

*wipe dalvik cache.

*install of CM7 #5 and gapps.

*reboot.

*let sit for 5 min.

*reboot, set up google account and do a quick setup of the phone (not setcpu, no adjustment to cpu).

*let sit for 10 min.

*test signal strength in 4 different locations in my condo, then one in my hand sitting on my couch. i allowed about 15 secs each time to settle and took the lowest result found.

*open up nhl.com, play flash video from site.

*run rockplayer lite, play 43 min video, brightness at 40%.

*let sit 10 min.

*run speed test from 4 locations and couch. best of 3 runs.

This came within 1 minute of the same time frame in battery usage statistics.

Results:

CM7 default kernel

1. -83 dBm 15asu

2. -77 dBm 18 asu

3. -75 dBm 19 asu

4. -85 dBm 14 asu

5. -93 dBm 11 asu (couch)

no rebuffer on nhl.com.

1. 1986 kbps

2. 2252 kbps

3. 2942 kbps

4. 1903 kbps

5. 1594 kbps (couch)

battery level at 66% after 1 hour and 30 minutes of use.

CM7 faux 1.2b stock voltage kernel

1. -81 dBm 16 asu

2. -79 dBm 17 asu

3. -77 dBm 18 asu

4. -83 dBm 15 asu

5. -90 dBm 12 asu (couch)

no rebuffer on NHL.com

1. 2384 kbps

2. 2859 kbps

3. 3620 kbps

4. 2377 kbps

5. 1922 kbps (couch)

battery level at 72% after 1 hour and 30 minutes of use.

Conclusion

Nothing worth noting really. The speedtests were separated by a large amount of time so network traffic is probably the answer to variance, signal strength is virtually identical. The last nightly I used prior to testing was 29, so it seems any issues I had with the ROM have been ironed out. Both kernels ran smooth. I experienced no errors during the process, and only felt lag upon initial boot, no clear difference between the two kernels. Once I finished the testing, I did install setcpu, clock it to 1209/245, and am still at 68% after watching a few more highlight videos from nhl.com (which didn't seem to hitch as much in the heavy action moments). Battery life did SEEM to be better with faux's, though I could have missed something, and I feel no performance strain from the kernel. Wish these results were more definitive...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] graffixnyc:
I would be Willing to try and test for you if you do incorperate the sense governors.

I'm not sure what you mean though. They say no take chips are the same and some will freeze and others wont but I only freeze when my min is set lower than 1017 and my max is set higher than 1.7. Am I really off with my theory that it freezes because the scaling jump from 246 to 1.8 is too drastic and causes the phone to hang? I can run at 1.8 performance no problem either which tells me my cpu can handle the 1.8 bit it doesn't seem to handle the scaling jump from 246 to 1.8.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] fyaajster:
Here is a question I have

Do we use set\cpu to control or do we use CM7MOD setting to control it.

which one will have a better performance on setting it up or it doesn't matter.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jdkoren:
Can someone give a rundown of ALL the governors? My understanding so far is this . . .

Interactive - described in OP; gives more priority to apps to increase responsiveness

MinMax - described in OP; reduces number of jumps in frequency

Conservative - less aggressive scaling/ramping than On-Demand?

On-Demand - sort of a traditional, middle-of-the-road setting?

Userspace - ???

Power Save - forces min frequency?

Performance - forces max frequency?

Smartass - described in OP; clocks down when screen is off but wakes up fast

Can anyone provide more details?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
You're pretty much correct on all of them (you can of course tweak the parameters to each governor and change their behaviors quite drastically, but the default behaviors are as you stated).

Userspace is basically a fixed frequency Governor. It allows users to "fixed" to a specific frequency (no dynamic re-adjustments).

My SmartAss Governor has been tweaked to behave like Interactive Governor while screen is On, and behave like Conservative Governor while screen is OFF and limited to max frequency of 530 MHz to conserve battery... The time slice for my SmartAss is set @ 33ms and it has asymmetrical ramp up/down settings, so it should be very responsive and good with battery life...

It'd not a bad signal issue, its more of a no service availible issue. Sometimes I just completely lose all service and it says tmoblie network is unavailable.

Hi. I was wondering...do I need to flash the prior release (i.e., the short term 2.6.1 release with the drivers) before flashing the 2.6.3 much like we had to do with release 2.4.8? Just double checking...it doesn't seem as if I need to but wanted to re-confirm.

Wait... Ext4?? Where is the Reiserfs? :)

Thanks Faux... I don't know what happened on other threads with certain posters... But I see types who are clueless all the time on this board and similar ones. The posts by certain people in your threads were deleted by the mods, so I never read them. But I see so often where someone is giving something obtained or created through that person's hard work, and the recipients of such benefit so often have the audacity to have "entitlement" issues or other poor personality traits/flaws that smack of someone who exists in a very egocentric world. I don't post much on your kernel threads, but your reputation is far and away one of the best I have encountered here, and I wish to offer to you my sincerest gratitude for all that you (and others) have done. Further, as someone who uses your kernels and other people's ROMs, I also want to apologize for these misanthropes; these types are inevitable, but thankfully, they will always be the minority.
