[KERNEL][4/11/12] TestyMeh ICS 1.0 - OC+SIO+Initd ICS, New Suspend Method, Added Veno

This kernel aims to improve performance, while still maximizing stability (and getting rid of reboots and SODs). It's working on all ROMs so far, so here it is for your approval. It can overclock to 1704Mhz, but doesn't override your user limit. I've added SIO and Init.d support and some various tweaks, and rebased to the newest source. Next is more cpu governors and general tweaks. Thanks to Roach for his commits from github, and guevor for new suspend code to imitate.
Some ROMs use a different build config, so Use The Right Version Below! Please Wipe Cache in CWM before flashing.
Update 4/11/12: Added test version of Veno, read about it at: http://www.ie.cuhk.edu.hk/fileadmin/staff_upload/soung/Journal/J3.pdf1.0 is up for All testers. Voodoo should be supported, please report. Wifi has been tested on Stock/ARHD/Revolver/Megatron/CNA/AOKP, but please test with other ROMs. I'm trying to compile one kernel for all ROMs, but EOS is still separate. Mega props to Guevor for the new suspend code. I'm trying to implement it without directly copying him though, so I need testers again. I will compile for other ROMs if necessary.
Update 4/7/12-2: 0.8 Added OC up to 1704mhz, Under/Overvolt support, made some changes to error handling for wifi stack, tweaked default voltages, and some stuff I can't remember right now. For testing, 0.8 downloads are in green. CIFS, TUN, and NTFS are cooked in, you should not need to load modules. There is a download link provided below for people who want the modules anyways.Personally tested on all ROMs listed, haven't had time to try Frozn.

This is still beta. You must have balls to flash this(metaphorically speaking). Don't rip mine off if you have to reflash something else.
I had a couple requests for a donation link, so I'm posting one below. Feel free to buy me a beer if you want, but most of the work was done by the source code and people before me.

Depends. Try it. The worst thing will be that the wifi doesn't work. I'm working on the bcmdhd version for people with AOSP roms, that may use the same driver.

Thx. I will try it !

Thank you , but can u chack if the dock 2xUSB (removable disk) is working?
Because on every OC ICS kernel that i tried so far on the tf101 , the dock USB stop working

msticninja said:
I just compiled this from my github, which is forked from Roach's(He's working on EOS, so I'm filling in the void for now, with his permission). It's working beautifully for me on stock ROM and ARHD so far, so here it is for testing. It can overclock to 1600Mhz, but doesn't override your user limit. Blades' test kernel "meh" overrides the user limit once the screen is off, which makes my TF reboot constantly. That's really the only reason I compiled my own kernel, but I know other people have this issue, and Roach said he doesn't have time to compile and post it for us. Thanks to Roach of course, and Blades, because I used his "meh" updater-script (because I forgot which partition the kernel was supposed to be dd'ed to.)
Install with CWM, (or Rogue(untested though))

Going to bed now. Will respond to responding responders in morning. Seriously. Me So Tired.
P.S. @guevor Didn't mean to post this right after you merged Roach's fix, we must've been compiling at the same time, little did we know.

Too sleepy to make a table out of it. I'll do it tomorrow if you can't figure it out from the source.

Just flashed the kernel , got a first reboot after 4 seconds
will try again now

I haven't tested on Revolver. I didn't add init.d support yet, so it could be that. Can you run at lower frequencies without rebooting? Mine can't handle 1600 on any kernel, so I can't really troubleshoot that, but if it still reboots at 1000 or 1200, then it's probably a ROM incompatibility. We'll see if anyone else can test it on Revolver in the mean time.

Hi,
tested your kernel with CNA 1.5.5.3 sadly no wifi.
Now I'm back on stock
Greetings

Nice to see more kernels popping up
I would help you test it, but frankly Im not in the mood to troubleshoot (if needed) today
Been screaming at a PC all day that refused to work properly hehe

CM9.1 default kernel change or overlocking

Hi guys,
I'm very noob with Sensation, spent two nights for FAQ's, guides, etc. anyhow, still need help...
I've flashed recent CM9.1. Noticed default kernel (shipped with CM) is not overlocked and has 1.2MHz. Also noticed it has low benchmark results on Quadrant.
Then I've updated kernel with recent Faux v008, as it has a lot of positive feedbacks. Now able to overlock (didn't modified anything, just left with defaults) and benchmarks dramatically increased. So I was happy. Till yesterday when noticed it's not possible to connect phone to PC as USB drive. On forums found some similar reports with complains that this happening after kernel change.
Now questions:
1. is it possible to revert back default kernel which shipped with CM9.1 without full ROM update? (I've already configured/installed tons of apps)
2. is it possible to overlock default kernel which shipped with CM9.1?
3. is there any kernel which already overlocked and definitely compatible with CM9.1?

Faux v008 kernel is not compatible with AOSP roms.
1. Flash the zip file without wiping.
2. Its in the settings. Scroll down for performance and then processor
3. You can try Tamcore kernel. http://files.tamcore.eu/android/

Doesn't same CM9.1 zip is flashed both to Sensation and Sensation XE? Does it mean that XE also has 1.2MHz with stock CM9? Or there is some additional info (about default clock/voltage settings) somewhere out of ROM (in EEPROM?)?

Thanks a lot! I've installed it and now USB storage has been fixed.
Performance of TamCore is not so good as on Faux, but in principle not so bad (much better than stock one): overlocked CPU (up to 1.52MHz) and GPU (3D up to 320MHz, 2D up to 266MHz ), enabled ZRAM, and badass ('balanced' plan).
Quadrant score:
TamCore: ~2800
Faux: >3100
stock kernel: ~2200

OC'ing the TF700T

Which program is everyone using to OC their TF700T? Which clock is most effective without damaging/stressing the device too hard?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T

Bump-a-dump.
Sent from my HTC Rezound

No one has OC'd their Infinity?

Everyone is probably in the development section
Ummm
Clemsyn's kernel here with the 1.8 oc
I haven't dabbled with voltages.
I'm using System Tuner Pro to push the CPU to max.
I just did a stress test under the kernel with no tweaks set.
No overheat and it didn't reboot until system load hit 3.92
I'll call that good for now.

How would I go about using Clemsyn's kernel with CleanROM 2.3? Are there any risks with combining something like Clemsyn's kernel with a custom ROM?
I didn't really want to ask in the development thread because I didn't think it was for question and answers.

Clemsyn and CleanROM work perfectly together. Check out the dev thread for either, and look at the results...

Joe,
If you have flashed CleanROM 2.3 it's important to be on the JellyBean boot-loader.
If you are still on ICS upgrade to JB. (I won't go into rooting, saving root, custom recovery...blah blah)
Once you have Scotts CleanROM flashed and working.
Simply flash Clemsyn's kernel from a custom recovery.
I will say the risk is less than moderate.
I have had a good experience to this point in time.
______________________________________________________________________________________
*Trying to stay simple here so I won't post links and other confusion.
I'm kind of a dummy or "newbster" if you will myself.
Once I got unlocked I was committed to either bricking or learning how to do this.
I made the mistake of installing Scotts ROM then flashed Clemsyn's over an ICS downgrade.
Dismal results there...so I just started from scratch...learned about flashing thru ADB from my windows PC.
I recommend getting to know the ADB (android development bridge) commands.
ADB is just a command prompt...like a DOS window that speaks to Android on a device.
It's certainly possible to crap the tab using it, yet it's an invaluable tool for flashing.
Used hiemanshu's method to gain root after flashing JellyBean .18.
Worked very well once the procedure clicked in my head.
Tons of help here at the development paradise known as XDA...

Is there a tutorial on how to install Clemsyn buried in the official thread?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T

If you have CleanROM installed.
Simply flash the kernel.
It works in addition to CleanROM.
Clemsyn's is added to Scotts ROM.

Ok. Awesome! Thanks. If it causes problems for my device, does TWRP allow me to unflash (if that is even a thing)?
Sent from my HTC Rezound

I built a flashable zip with the clean ROM stock kernel. I'll send you a copy of you need it, and you can flash it just like you do with Clemsyn's kernel. I doubt you'll need it...
As noted above, you want to be on the JB (10.x) bootloader. Nothing to do with losing root, saving root, accessing recovery, and all that crap, but there's a restriction on the 9.x bootloader that restricts increased voltages, and this restricts the higher clock speeds associated with the increased voltage...

Personally I would make a backup of the tablet without the Kernal just in case then flash the kernal and if for some reason it doesnt work or you dont like it then you can go back to the recovery.

Don't forget to do a backup in TWRP before each step.
I have been renaming my backups ie; B4CL22, B4CL23, B4Clems22 and so on...you get the idea.
I can keep them straight that way.
Backups are very important as I now know.

[Q] What's the best battery saver kernel for Sensation?

I'm using ARHD 6.8.0 and sebastianFM kernel. I set gpu frequency of 2d and 3d to lowest which is 200, but still when I play games it still drains as fast as when the 2d and 3d is set higher. I also set minimum cpu frequency to 192 and maximum to less than 1000 ghz but it still drains battery fast. By the way, I'm using Kernel Tuner App to tweak the kernel.
Is there a kernel with fastcharge enabled for sensation?
I want the kernel that's best both for gaming and browsing internet-wise.
Help me guys thanks.

Hi,
If you play games,you will use more battery,no ,matter what kernel you use.
Play games=more cpu=more battery.
FAUX KERNEL has fast charge capability.
SULTAN too

Oh I see. So I've read about Sultan. But what kernel of sultan to install? It's confusing there's Sultan Linaro, Sultan AOSP, Sultan Aroma etc.. What's the proper Sultan Kernel that I should use?? I'm on ARHD 6.8.0. Thanks

Make a full Nandroid backup first before you flash the Sultan kernel.
That way if you do something wrong in the installation and pick the wrong options in Aroma it's super easy to just revert and start over. (Though I think Sultan offers a "reset" option as well.) But still...you're doing something you'r enot familiar with so make a backup first.

The Powerful Kernel Reset included in my kernel's Aroma installer will erase init.d scripts left behind my many kernels (including my kernel) and it will then proceed to purely install my kernel with no init.d script included.

[Q] Having some trouble overclocking gpu

I disagree with you partially, you can oc gpu too. You can do it by changing manually which i did last time months ago because i have been using TricksterMOD, but it seems like after 2.1.5(?) update to kernel you can't do it anymore with it, so i use older version of next kernel what op is using.
EDIT: Actually i solved the problems and now it works with latest version using TricksterMOD!
Btw im on Cm 10.2 as you can see.
