[Q] problem faux kernel 0.2.7

Hi guys,
I've been trying out several kernels for my sensation.
I'm running Insertcoin 3.4.5.
The problem i'm having is: On faux kernel 0.2.7 i'm having freezes during heavy browsing(stock browser) not all the time,not reproducable.
I end up pulling the battery.
I've going trough this forum(and the internet) but i didn't find simulair cases.
Before I installed the kernel I did wipe cache, dalvik and did run kernel reset, as found in the threat.
Could this have something to do with zram? perhaps incombination with insertcoin?
Is zram enabled in 0.2.6? I believe it's not but please correct me if i'm wrong....
I realy hope you guys can help me with this because i really like faux kernel...
Many thanks!

You might have to wait for a new version. I think faux has a 0.2.8 version out so that might help.

Hi,
Faux 028 is HERE
This is a final,so it's good to go.
Check HERE for the full story.

Thanks for the info!
I've tried this one already, but it just doesn't seem to run smooth....
Could that be because im on insertcoin? V0.2.6 seems way faster.... Thats what im using now.
Could anyone tell me the difference between these 2? For as far as i could find out of the changelog, the difference is that zram is not inclueded in v 0.2.6....
Please correct me if im wrong!
I will continue using v0.2.6 as long as it runs my phone as it does now(extremely fast).
However iam currious why v0.2.7 and up don't work so well on my phone....
Any ideas?
Many thanks!

Hi,
The best one is the one that works well for you.
Faux has had huge problems with zram recently.
So,if it ain't broke,don't fix it!

What is a Good Kernel for ViperS 1.1.0 & How to change Kernel Settings?

Been flashing Custom Roms & Kernels insanely these few days trying to get the most perfect Custom Rom and Kernel. I have decided to use ViperS 1.1.0 as my main Custom Rom, I'm now deciding which Kernel best go with it and that's it, I can finally starting doing my stuff on my phone instead of searching for Roms and Kernels everyday to flash. Lol, after rooting my phone, I haven't like used it yet at all, all I did was looking for Custom Roms and Kernels to flash to find which best for me.....
Well anyway, can a ViperS 1.1.0 user please tell me which Kernel is good? I'm looking for a Kernel that has good battery life and a bit good performance. I have tried many Kernels but can't notice the difference between them.
Also how would I change the Kernel's settings? Like if I want to change the Governor, how would I change it?
Thanks in advanced! I'm kinda new to Kernels.

Here's a good one its Sebastian Fm #1 and there's mod that you can download for it also and it is kick ass http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424345

Yeah, I've seen many people say that Sebastian's kernel is best for ViperS 1.1.0. But when I download Sebastian's kernel and install it, it doesn't have an installer for me to choose options from? It just installs it and that's it, how would I like change the settings for it?

You can use a mod that goes with the Sebastian kernel, this is what I did. Its supposed to help battery life. Check out the mods and you will find it. Best wishes.

As some people already said, Sebastian`s kernel is very good. His kernel + as much Undervoltage as is stable for your phone should make a good performance with good battery life I`m plaaying Dead Trigger with Tegra effects enabled, and no lags with -75mV, but you need to find out what UV level is good and stable for you
and BTW guys, what mods are you talking about? I looked at his thread and didn`t find any mods. Do you mean that OC and ZRAM or there are any other mods?

For kernel settings such as govs and uv, you can use an app such as system tuner. It allows you to change a multitude of kernel settings, including clock speed.

sebastian fm is good kernel... +1

I am talking about all from my signature
Sebastians kernel doesnt offer any options to choose as I know.
The same with MOD Take Control - but you may change some things by System Tuner app.

There is a link to a MOD for seb's kernel in the viper thread, posted not so long ago. It allows you to change a whole bunch of stuff for his kernel such as uv and even second phase frequencies. It's a seperate zip you flash after flashing the kernel itself.

viper 1.2.1 reboots?

my viper Rom keeps keeps rebooting itself at times AMD then there's a huge battery drain , especially when I'm on on demand governor ..
I even tried changing my kernel to SebastianFM but still the same problem, even with the mod for Sebastian fm..
can someone help me figure out the might be causing this? plus my battery's less awesome then 1.1 ,
so can someone help me figure out the problem?
and if any other person could help me with which kernel works best for you guys with viper 1.2.1 ?
I'd really appreciate help, thank you

Hi there, this is best posted on the viper development site. Everyone there is using the same Rom and perhaps more people even have your issue and know of a fix for it. So it is really best to post this on viper development where you can get Rom specific help. I use viper also and have not experienced you're issue. Have you considered doing a fresh download and full wipe and reinstallation of the Rom? This might help. But do post on viper site and hopefully someone knows of a fix if above doesn't solve the issue. Best wishes.

I use Faux's kernel with intelidemand governor and it's perfect (performance and battery)
I don't know aboot reboots... wait for other answers.

The kernel I use is yank version 2.5. I just downloaded it caused many viper users use it and like it. I thought I'd give it a try. So far so good.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium

Yank 2.52 works well for me. I had constant reboots when I was undervolted by 100, but now that I'm not undervolted at all it doesn't reboot anymore. So it may not necessarily be kernel but kernel settings that can give you bootloop.

What firmwire are you using 3.32 or is it 3.33 and also are you s off and Fyi sebastien's kernel there's two mods you need in order to get the correct settings if not thats all you will get is battery drain i've been using it for a week now and its awsome

[HELP] unable to use flash because your battery low

HTC sensation, stock rom 4.0.3... :crying:
I need mod "Lowered Camera Flash Threshold from 30% to 5%"
I speak English poorly, help me...!
Thank's

Are you saying this mod is draining your battery very fast? Have you tried buying a extended battery? This could help . Anker is a very good battery. Most people here have Anker. Mugen is also a great battery but it's expensive. Anker is only about 10 dollars. I do suggest you try it. It will make a big difference in battery life. With my stock battery I got only 3 hours before it was empty! Now my battery lasts 20 plus hours with heavy use . I do highly recommend you give Anker a try.
Sent from HTC sensation, soff, 3.33 firmware, viper Rom, sense 4.1,kernel- faux 10b6 , Mugen 3800 mah battery. Please press thanks if I helped in anyway.

The problem is that HTC made it so that you can't use the camera flash if the battery is lower than 30%. The solution would be to use a different kernel. Another camera app might also work.

No! you can't use in stock, becouse that kernel is just for ViperS 3.1.2 Sense 4+ JB and Revelation
You can try the overclocked kernel you can flash with stock rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424345 , before flashing make a nand backup and check the md5 sum first
"Camera flash: low battery limit decreased to 10%."

Exactly. This kernel supports jb roms only. Besides SebastianFM has a ton of great ics kernels. You need to look for those.

[Q] LED not flashing.. Help please

Hello everybody!
Yesterday it was the first time when i flashed the rom on my Sensation.. I did everything step by step.. the Elegancia with Sense 4.1 is brilliant. Everything is lightning fast, and works with not even a single problem..
Unfortunately this morning i noticed that my battery level is low.. and the LED is permanently turned ON.
I felt like something's different, so i went to "Show me" and searched for LED. The result was:
GREEN - Battery fully charged
GREEN FLASHING - Notification
RED - Battery Charging
RED FLASHING - BATTERY LEVEL LOW..
So in my case when the battery level is low it MUST flash, instead of being turned on permanently.
Does anyone have any idea what can i do to fix this issue?
Thank you!

Might be a kernel glich, it does not sound as a rom related issue.
Which kernel did you choose?

Well im copying what's in "Software Information"
"Kernel version
3.0.16-v1.5.2
SebastianFM #1
SMP PREEMPT
Baseband version
11.76A.3504.00P_11.24A.3504.31_m
Build Number
2.31.401.5.CL90817 release-keys
Browser Version
WebKit/534.30"
If it's Kernel issue.. it will be great if you suggest a way to fix it. Thank you for the time spent answering!

Hmm... You could try reflashing Seb's kernel.
I was actually on 1.5.2 for a long time and did not observed that issue.
If that dors't work you could try another kernel, say Faux's (see my sig) to verify it is a kernel issue..
Just remember to Nandrpid before any kernel change.
Edit: also if your device is s-on, make sure to enable smart flash on 4ext prior to flashing.
