Hmm, as I can see the K3 is somehow functional on HTC Leo? There are already releases with it: http://xdaforums.com/hd2-android/nand-dev/jan-02-01-2014-kernel-3-0-101-t2991489

I've already worked with marc (the guy who actually got all of this rolling) on this, but I seem to have lost all interest in working on K3.

Understandable, Desire is 5 years old, not many users left.

But many users would be glad to have k3.

Yh because some people cannot afford new phones because of where there from so they want latest software etc.

That's alright, you've already done a lot on this matter.

Hi everyone!

I believe that some of you have probably missed the great news about the awesome job done by Thomas!

We have a pretty stable K3 now!

Cheers!

P.S.: I got it running on Kitkat, but not yet on Lollipop..

Hello nikez,

At first many thanks for your great work on the qsd8k kernel.

I have done some work on the 3.0er branch and fixed the USB reconnect problem and some other issues too.

"https://github.com/justremotephone/android_kernel_htc_qsd8k/tree/android-5.1-bravo-30"

I hope this helps for furhter work. I have invested a considerable time to solve the increased standby power consumption problem (compared with the 2 kernel). But so far without success. Could some one help with this? I would have some futher details about that....

Regards,
Thomas.

Great news! Thanks to Thomas! Can you upload a zImage or kernel img to test? I don't have my Ubuntu partition so I can't build the kernel from his repo. :good:

Ok. You could also download my new Carbon build which has it included.

I've tested it (though I'm using a custom Evervolv ROM) It's definetely a huge improvement. Do you remember what else needs to be fixed in this kernel? Perhaps now that the USB issue is fixed (the big headache of K3) @LaidbackNikez could take a look to the K3 again :laugh::laugh: (just kidding, but it would be great)

USB reconnect is fixed. Also the freezing is gone. Despite of the noticeably higher standby power consumption, this kernel is ready for daily usage!

Is there flashable version of k3 kernel available to test? Or at least zImage?

Thanks!

Unbelievable Amazing work guys!!! I'm really happy today as I never expected to see this news (i've been waiting on k3 forever as the wifi module in k2 doesn't work well in south-america region).

I applaud all involved for their persistent work and refusal to give up. The stuff that is going on here is legendary (revival of the HTC Desire in a way HTC and Google could never even dream of!).

I actually gave up, so the credit goes to Thomas and Spezi for finishing it! (Ish, kernels are never really done)

Which toolchain did you used to compile the kernel? Can you give me a link? I've made a new installation of Ubuntu in a USB flash drive and I'm trying to compile with linaro 4.7 but I'm getting some errors...

Hey there,

I did a new build which has a few small improvements:

drivers: bring up more CPU governors
mach-msm: bravo: suspend fix (credits: macs18max and walter79)
mach-msm: bravo: power down fix (credits: macs18max)
msm: acpu-8x50: add 1190 MHz to scaling frequencies (credits: marc1706)
Enable audit to prevent error flooding in logcat (credits: walter79)

Here is a flashable version: http://www.mediafire.com/download/cd3ny88ucn54gtj/Flashable_k3.0.16-test-kitkat.zip - md5 fa9e903fc482978c23481404dbde4b6f

And here is my unofficial test build of Evervolv's Kitkat rom 4.0.0p2-turba incl. this kernel version: http://www.mediafire.com/download/px55haajtoh2pmc/ev_bravo-4.0.0p2-turba-test-k3.0-UNOFFICIAL.zip - md5 701bd4c9d5e5a7d13db154d2e6363cff

Code:

Special credits:
* Evervolv
* LaidbackNikez
* marc1706
* macs18max
* noonamer
* ths@justremotephone.com
* walter79
* everyone else who was involved but does not appear in this list

Please report feedback to this thread only -- at minimum include a logcat/dmesg.

I would be very interested if the battery life has increased for you in this version. *fingers-crossed*

Thank you and have a nice day!

Hi @spezi77,

Flashing of turba ROM and gapps went ok.
Only thing is that once phone goes to sleep, it cannot be awaken by any way, battery pull out needed.
No logcat.

Others?

Is there are some special instruction to flash this Evervolv? What version of recovery and hboot should be used?

EDIT:
Is this kernel will work with your kitkang 1.2?
