[KERNEL] Trinity - Sense3.0 (2.3.4) / Sense 3.5 (2.3.5) / CM7 (2.3.x) / miui

[thelegendarylegends]

Why wouldn't it support smp?
I am pretty happy with my battery life.
Think there is room for improvement later though.

Okay thanks Morphic, ill sure try this one

Going to see what I can do to 3.5 ramdisk to make things a little more consistent with 3.0 performance after work.
Otherwise looking good.

For all the Sense 3.5 lovers out there:

http://goo.gl/5glwE "clet-sense35h.zip"

It's a Trinity test kernel for Sense 3.5, I am using it on RCmix.

I would appreciate some help testing it, BUT only on virgin sense3.5, if you have flashed faux's "FirstTimeKernel3.5.zip", then i can't use the feedback, i know it'll work.

clet-sense35h includes a matching camera app and matching libs, it does not include any unneeded kgsl firmware, the best test results would be on fresh installed 3.5 roms.

This is obviously for the "oh cool, i wanna try!" crowd, not the "ugh! why do i have to do that?" crowd, both groups can flash it and it will work, i'm simply only soliciting feedback from the former crowd.

Thanks and enjoy.

Oh sorry didn't specify .. I'm using cm7

It works on my cm7 install, and tethering, that is.

hi morfic,
is there a changelog? i cant tell how matured the kernel is right now and i cant understand like half the stuff in the features list. but im thinking about giving this kernel a try. i read that you were working on battery life, is it at the point where you want it to be? thanks

Dont worry about it, its a tweaked Sensation XE kernel (which works perfectly fine on regular Sensation or 4g). Ill give you a few things:

• It clocks up to 1.89Ghz (if you chip can even go that high, Im a lucky one)
• the voltages have already been tuned for best battery life w/o crashing (hence why theres no user controllable UV)
• it has working camera in Sense 3 & 3.5, it has FANTASTIC idle \ deep sleep battery life (if you have bad battery life, look for a rogue app)
• it is ext4 script optimizes far beyond any other kernel or sensation ROM (EXT4 optimized remounts similar to supercurio's Voodoo lagfix for SGS)
• Based on a less is more philosophy, no need to add excess commits unless they actually are needed or improve\fix something
• Use SetCPU for cpu management, dont set a screen off profile (it actually uses more battery life OR you have a rogue app)
• Use OnDemand, 168 or 384 min, doesnt seem to have much of an effect on battery either way

Hope that helps ! Enjoy this monster

been testing this kernel for 2 days. very stable. feels just like stock kernel in terms of speed and battery life. other custom kernels seem to have higher drain. can i request adding the feature of lowering flashlight/flash limit from 30% to 10% battery left? thanks

Sorry, almost forgot to reply to this, knee deep in NS and GN kernel builds, and not having either phone, i forget time easy.

And that sounds like a good change, let me look for it.

And keep prodding me if there is no reply from me.
Not going to happen tonight, since i include ramdisks in all 4 kernels for now, i want time to test em if possible, of course miui, cm7, sense3.0 and sense3.5 users can always offer to help verify proper builds before they are released to the masses, I would appreciate it.

I'll have to flash RCmix v7.0 tomorrow, didn't get to it today, really liking RCmix v10, so i will upgrade and make this my go to 3.5, keeping bp15 nandroid for sense3.0 testing.

Thanks for the suggestion,

Daniel

EDIT:



static struct camera_flash_cfg msm_camera_sensor_flash_cfg = {
.low_temp_limit = 5,
- .low_cap_limit = 30,
+ .low_cap_limit = 10,
};

just no time to verify/test

awesome, thanks, 5% might even be better

oh yea can you also look into changing the notification light flash limit? right now its set to only 5 minutes. maybe half an hour, hour, or until notification is read would be better. faux said its better to integrate this into the rom, but bricked kernel has this working perfectly. what do you think? not a necessity but its a nice feature as well

I'll have to wait for a good day, turn the read only sysfs file into a r/w file.
I can look for that.
Sometimes it's easier to do things kernel side to maintain consistency, other times because that's where the drivers are.

Just a warning, all over NS code (catching up) and GN test kernel, so I might get the changes done but not build until I have a chance to test on all roms.

Enjoying RCmix v7.0 isn't a great rom switch motivator either ;P

Sorry man, this is not what you asked for, but could you tell me what you think there:


[email protected]:~/SENDEV/pyramidLE-crc-2.6.35$ adb shell cat /sys/camera_led_status/low_cap_limit

the cat lines show what it is, the echo lines change it (i know, being mr obvious there), i had noticed when i looked for the cap, there was a read only sysfs attribute already, so i just added the set function and made it r/w
i need to see what kind of checks i need to add to make it sane, but if you give it logical values it's fine.
only got it for sense 3.5 right now if you wanna test.

EDIT: it's funny when your battery is near full and it tells you that you don't have enough battery to use flash when testing at 99%
And kill the app before you drop cap back down, or cam will drive you nuts with its cached 99% cap, telling you NO FLASH FOR YOU, at any battery level

your hardly being mr obvious. sorry but i actually have very little clue what all that code means. lol. i can only understand bits and parts. im actually on a sense 3.0 rom so if you have any sense 3.0 kernels i can test those for you. hey take your time with the new build. im about to switch back to your kernel tomorrow thanks for your hard work and responsiveness

all it means is you can pick your own limit, defaults to 10
and i pasted a few lines showing it takes any value
i can't test 3.0, but i can build it, but tomorrow, about to fall asleep on keyboard

 

[walkinhotdog]

any news on the new build with the flash light battery limit lowered?

they are there, 3.0 still untested since i can't get around to flashing 3.0 right now, wanna test it?
3.5 is running fine

The tested 3.5: http://goo.gl/vZ2ds
The untested 3.0: http://goo.gl/ZLcTK

 

[walkinhotdog]

will report back maybe tomorrow. just fully charged last night. with battery life this good on your kernel i wont be able to run down the battery that much in one day to test the new flash limit today

sure you can, set it to 90 and be amazed to not use flash under 90%

Thanks for keeping up the Sense 3 versions, never know when Im gonna go back to Sense 3\BPv15 (Although Im enjoying RcMix atm)

 

[walkinhotdog]

um how? i tried doing the adb thing once but could not get it to work

btw, what is the gpu speed for this kernel? default or overclocked? just wondering

EDIT: tested the new kernel, seems to have broken the camera a bit. zoom feature is messed up, it takes pictures that are completely blurred out with green lines. regular pictures are inconsistent. sometimes works sometimes green lines. battery flash limit worked tho, was able to use under 30% battery left =)

 

[walkinhotdog]

bump, with feedback on new kernel
