Downloading this now to try out; I assume that you included both Evervolv's and r2doesInc's GB ROMs in your statement of "all current GB ROMs"? That'd be great, because I swear that Invisiblek's kernel, fast and fluid as it is, is causing some majorly excessive overheating in my phone. I'd prefer that my phone break down...well, never, but if it did, closer to my contract upgrade date. lol hoping yours puts out less heat (and I'm only running the main profile at 1.1GHz, so it's not even that much over the stock).

Question: What exactly is HAVS and what is this undervolted to? And I don't know how to test USB tethering, sorry. Also I am running Cyanogen 6.1

I have installed this and ran a quadrant score and linpack test that I will post a screenshot of. I overclocked to 1.15 w/ smartass governor as default:

This is the second iteration of my kernel, but it is the first time I'm posting it on XDA. You can find the post for the first version on the miui-dev forums here.

So far no problems with the kernel.

Does your kernel offer any built in screen off profiles when using the Smartass governor? Some kernels with smartass usually do a min-max screen off profile of 245.

Just checking, in case I have to make a screen off profile in setcpu.

Second this, i'd like to know about all of this too.

Screen off on smartass sets to 128/384 min/max.

I've seen quadrant scores in the mid 1500's with this kernel. The linpack app always gives kind of low scores since it was updated. With 0xBench, I've seen linpack scores in the 41's.

HAVS is hybrid active voltage scheduling. It allows the CPU to dynamically change the voltage at each frequency (speed) based on need. The ultimate result is better battery life.

This kernel will undervolt as far as 925 mV at lower frequencies. That is a fairly aggressive level and honestly, it may need to be raised a bit. On the other hand, I'm coming from the Evo which is a bit more power hungry (a lot of Evo's can't boot with that low of an undervolt, but my Incredible has not had any issues with it).

Thank you for the quick response. Is there a specific reason for the 384 max?

My phone seems to handle the kernel fine, despite it being heavily undervolted. Having it undervolted, yet having a 384 max screen off probably balance out, so im not complaining. I'll continue to test it and see how battery life goes. Thanks again for the kernel.


Happy Holidays!

I was not trying to say your kernel was bad, in fact 1400's is great for me. I am enjoying your kernel a lot. I just thought you would like some feedback and those 2 things were some quick feedback i thought I could give ya.


I am liking the aosp explosion as of late.

Me too. Very nice to see new AOSP ROM's and especially some AOSP Kernel's. Not long ago the choice for AOSP Kernels was very very limited, just kk's and ziggys I think.

I don't like to drop the screen-off max to 245. Maybe this is another hang-up coming from the Evo, but when it is that low, there can be some issues on wake-up. That said, it's a max, so unless the phone needs to clock that high while the screen is off, it wont. Also, even at that level it will still undervolt at either 925 or 950 mV.

I didn't think you were cutting on it, I was just saying that the numbers can go even higher. For my part, this kernel screams. It's not quite as fast as my Evo, but that can handle an OC to 1267, my Inc locks up at anything over 1113. Also, it's probably a bit easier to squeeze some extra performance out of it when cellular data is always turned off.

I'll give this a try. invisiblek #21 broke my touch capabilities altogether, so we'll see if this one actually works with the 10 point touch.

Edit/Update: My phone does NOT like the 10 point patch, so this kernel is another no-go for me. It figures I can overclock to 1190 but I can't do this, which in the end is probably a lot more useful.

Not every panel is capable of the 10-point multitouch. I can recompile a version that cuts it back down to 3 and that should work for you.

    3.3.5 posted in OP. Mostly more voltage tweaks. Should help battery life and not hurt people with less capable devices.

    I really am liking 3.1.4 non SBC coming from stock Slayher (usually) and incredikernel (sometimes for fast charging hehe) but I seem to get the issue with waking the phone still. Smartass 128,1113 set in CM settings. Sometimes it's 1 press, sometimes 3. Any explanation?

    Batt life supreme though, uptime almost 3hrs -- @95% (bump charged)


    EDIT: Took the back cover off to see if the power button was sticking, thinking this isn't the culprit.
    Try bumping your minimum to 245 - sometimes 128 gets too slow for some phones.
