Working great on cleanrom v with following settings: oc to 1.8 min 129, no gpu oc, no mdecision, sweep to wake yes. On demand gov and sio scheduling.


Tried smoothass governor phone froze and went into bootloop. All else a+ ok. Nice job

You guys getting reboots or hot starts, do you have google now installed? pulling log cats from my own phone. i noticed my cache overloading and causing sense reboots. once (now) is gone all problems are gone. I have tested on several roms even on stock it happens. On some phones you wont even make it past boot screen. Make sure your wiping caches also before reboot after flash, this is common knowledge,done after any install.

No Google now on mine. Works fine only governor i had issue with was smoothass luckily didn't have set CPU set to set on boot so I could get to the app fast enough to change it before it kept looping.

this kernel has been working problem free from the very first time I flashed it! So I'm not sure why others are having issues:confused
I'm pretty sure whatever going on its not kernel related! Good luck my people! :thumbup:

So what is mpdecision in greater detail? Will it give better battery life? Is there any settings for it I can change?

    A kernel is the lowest level of easily replaceable software that interfaces with the hardware in your computer. It is responsible for interfacing all of your applications that are running in “user mode” down to the physical hardware, and allowing processes, known as servers, to get information from each other using inter-process communication (IPC).

    What is Sweep2wake?


    It Allows you to make a Sweeping action along the bottom of your screen to wake or sleep the screen (mimics action of the power button)

    What is msm_mpdecision?

    100% kernel based multi core decision! (should cpu1 be online or not?)
    This replaces your /system/bin/mpdecision binary which is renamed by the installer to mpdecision_backup.

    Check /sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf/ for the configuration.
    startdelay = time until mpdecision starts doing it's magic (70000)
    delay = time between checks (500)
    pause = if something else plugs in the cpu, fall asleep for 10000
    scroff_single_core = if the screen is off, don't plug in cpu1 (1)
    nwns_threshold_up = runqueue threshold, if this is reached cpu1 will be hotplugged (35)
    nwns_threshold_down = runqueue threshold, if this is reached cpu1 will be unplugged (5)
    twts_threshold_up = time threshold, this amount of time must have passed (250)
    twts_threshold_down = same as above (250)
    enabled = enable(1) or disable(0) mpdecision. This does not affect scroff_single_core!
    idle_freq = a value against that will be checked if a core +/- is requested. (486000)
    If cpu0 is below that value and a core up of cpu1 is requested, nothing will happen.
    If cpu1 is above that value and a core down of cpu1 is requested, nothing will happen. (otherwise it would now put down cpu1 even though it is still working)

    What is ARM Topology:
    ARM Topology allows individual queue'ing of tasks to cores by the scheduler, For intelligent load balancing and more data crunching power. This has come from the Linaro Team you can view the most recent patch at from http://patches.linaro.org/9894/ all patches at http://patches.linaro.org/project/linux-arm-kernel/


    Special Thanks to: HausX, ToastCFH, Klin1344, Sbryan12144, QD2DC, Ca1ne, TwistedUmbrella, Mdeejay, Thicklizard, Haykuro

    Thanks So much to my Team for pushing me to do things i never would have thought i could do or be a part of
    If you WANT to donate please donate here:




    HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE HUGE thanks to:
    Showp1984 For all his help and for thinking up a great thing like sweep2wake



    Standard disclaimer: if you manage to brick, blow up, vaporize, eliminate, choke on, insert into a strange place or otherwise screw up your device: It is your fault and your fault alone. NOBODY, INCLUDING MYSELF, is responsible for anything you mess up.


    I HIGHLY suggest you use Kernel Tuner to tune this kernel as you can control your GPU/Sweep2wake/Individual Core control/Mpdecision control/profiles
    and its Free!

    Please track all bugs issues here
    http://code.google.com/p/this-project-is-zarboz/issues/list
    please include rom revision s-off or on status and description of problem
    I would appreciate the reporting
    ONLY REPORT BUGS FOR MY KERNEL DOWNLOADED FROM THIS THREAD

    The proper format for reporting is on the google code page but please attach the following to your bugreport post:
    Adb logcat dump of event
    kmesg dump of event < dont know what that is ?? here is a easy way to get it
    Code:
    adb shell dmesg > errorreportdump.txt
    this will spawn a .txt file in the directory your shell is in upload this file this will suffice for a stacktrace

    Common bugs and fixes for them:


    Unable to boot
    I have started the phone slightly undervolted and due to this it causes some units to fail to boot. This will be resolved in a future release
    Sorry for the delay with this, here is something that might help those who cannot fully boot on this kernel...
    https://dl.dropbox.com/u/6621763/HTC_EVO_4G_LTE_Kernel_Voltage_Stabilizer.zip
    It increases the voltage all across the board by 75mv.

    Im on the new JB kernel and my WiFi Says ERROR... what do i do!?!?!
    -please download attached prima_wlan.ko.zip unzip and place the prima_wlan.ko into /system/lib/modules/ and set permissions to 744
    I am using XYZ ROM and my Camera Doesn't work?
    - please see attached .zip to thread flash via recovery
    enjoy your working camera
    It seems the Sense Task Manager app isn't functioning properly after flashing v4.3. Is this the case for anyone else??

    i wanted to update this weekend but i am working on updating the compiler i use from 4.6.2 to 4.7

    this will give us cleaner compilation better optimization and a little more compression on the kernel.

    I have also narrowed down what i believe to be the cause of graphic glitching and in my tester groups they all report the problem absolved.

    I am working hard to get you guys the very best i can. So please bear with me

    ------- i will use the old toochain to make a no GPU OC version later this afternoon -----

    Coming soon to a BeastMode Kernel near you:
    • Sweep2sleep: with screen on, swipe right to left to turn screen off
    • Sweep2power: with screen on, swipe left to right for power menu (simulated 2.5 second power button hold)
    • Sweep2snap: with screen on: swipe left to right and press Home within 2 seconds for a screen snap
    • Sweep2wake: with screen off: swipe left to right to turn screen on (disabled by default for better battery life)
    • Phantom volume down: with screen on, touch between back and home for vol-down one notch
    • Phantom volume up: with screen on, touch between home and recent apps for vol-up one notch
    • Sweep2mute: with screen on, swipe from home to back for vol full down (vibrate)
    • Sweep2loud: with screen on, swipe from home to recent apps for max volume
