Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Devel

Just to point out that until now - after having compcache enabled - I had 2 hard crashes with new KP49. I write here because I think it could be a particular use-case that triggers the lock. Both times it happened to me while mediaplayer was broadcasting via FM transmitter, and heavy swap activity caused by an incoming call locked the interface, triggered the vibrator until the phone once rebooted itself and the other one obliged me to take away the battery after more than a minute with the vibrator shaking...
Before I passed to KP49 with stock DSP profile, I had KP48 with a rather undervolted profile with some instabilities from time to time. At the time, using compcache was almost impossible, causing lock usually by SD file system corruption (see a pattern here?)
I decided to test KP49 some time ago and so far, very good, with very stable phone and seeminlgy almost same battery life of my old configuration.
Then I decided to enable compcache again, installed the swap enabler script and felt immediately that probably no more fiddling would be done since the 900 was almost perfect.
Unfortunately, since then those two hard crashes happened, both as described with a very similar pattern. If somebody gives me a clue, I can try to dig it more if it happens again.

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Devel

Ok... Now I don't like the changes. SR doesn't crash, but I can't play videos because of a DSP MMU fault... -.-
I was so sure that I read "stable" in the title.
How am I supposed to deal with this..?

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Devel

sadly I also experience a number of reboots with kp49. First I thought is was because I selected the DSP profile, and that it was a overclocking problem. But after using default settings a few days now, that doesn't seem to fix the problem. I will be doing some more tests in the near future hoping I can pinpoint a problem. I disabled SR btw.

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Devel

I repeated all the tests made with the "default" profile also with the "dsp" profile BUT setting VDD1=0.

Everythink works without any issue! No DSP FAULTS, no battery drain, nice play and record @ 720p, no reboots also after 20 minutes of intensive make!

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Devel

After a week of testing KP49 is completely stable for me, with default, dsp and ideal modes.

The one thing I notice is that even without overclocking, using the media player drains the battery much faster than the stock nokia kernel. Basic use, 25 min of music in the car and on stock today I'm at 92% left (running for 3.5 hours so far). The best I've been at with the same use with KP49 was 75% over the past week using battery graph. I'm running CSSU, 1.3...no fancy patches or crap....just figured I'd share. I didn't personalize any of the KP settings, just ran them as-is.

Other than that battery life with any other task seems on par or better than stock nokia kernel on my device.

Because it is stable in extras-devel, so usual -devel warnings still apply ;)

Seriously though, freemangordon is working on better re-calculation of SR values - properly testing was"mt possible without plentora of users from -devel installing this, as it turned out.

For now, pushing DSP 600 mhz to MPU 850 (and using lower values for lower MPU) should do. If someone don't like messing with clock/voltage settings, turning vdd1 and vdd2 to 0 with dsp profile should be 100% rock solid stable (sacrificing benefits of SR).

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Devel

moving back to Nokia default kernel. Kernel Power 49 is eating lots of battery. drains my battery completely in 8 hours. in offline mode and in standby. is there is any way to solve it ?

- I managed to usb networking (where PC is router and PC and N900 are linked by usb cable) be able to run on stock kernel, and it occured that USB-networking-bug happenned at least once (it was the bug not plain incompability since i was able to transfer some data)
- the one above suggests it's a bug in driver, so it's not mainly related to the kernel power, but it may be a bug in driver firing a bug in KP (we had some once, and i believe it shouldn't crash the system, just break connection)

After more than two months, that glitch still occurs when my PC starts to use the internet connection such as when loading a website. Usually it happens every few days, sometimes every day. I don't want to switch back to a dial-up connection. I have the latest kp49. Using the default 600 MHz kernel profile has no effect so it's not a profile causing it. I wonder is there anything to do about the glitch.

open app manager and there is app called max cpu. you can overclock easily with it. if you want to do it manually then open filebox or any other 3rd party file manager with root access. navigate to usr/share/kernel-power-settings. there is a text document default. create copy of it in my documents and edit it with notepad with max and min freq. now rename the edited text doc to anyname u like e.g battery. and copy it back to usr/share/kernel-power-settings. open xterm gain root access then type kernel-config load battery and it will be loaded.

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Devel

Hi, i have a quick question (this thread is 62 pages long...)

how would i flash the .bin files from pali's server? (http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pali/)

specifically, u-boot+kp49.bin.new

or

u-boot+pr1.3+fb.bin

I am good with flasher just not sure to flash as a kernel or fiasco or what.

also would like to flash a version with framebuffer, but there are only images with fb for pr1.3? [edit]oh, i think it is for multiboot, ie fb or pr1.3

thanks for your time

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Devel

Hi, this topic is huge now and I wasn't following it since a months cause I had no time.
I have question about new kernel.

Does blessN900, bleeding edge wifi drivers and h-e-n are still compatible with kp49?

I'm still on 46 and thinking about upgrading but features offered by 3 above is essential for me.

edit:

Ok I was to impatient.
All I mentioned works fine with new kernel

Blame this on the miscalculated Efuse values for SR.
Also on the fact that the device manufacturer who's supposed to grab a document from TI detailing how it's supposed to be implemented didn't bother with said document, among other things they didn't bother with, and now people are working hard to implement it.

It's a little rough around the edges, but SR VDD2=1 should be safe for most devices. SR VDD1=1 stability can be tested by playing a video (H.264 Baseline 3@800x480)

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Devel

is there any thread for n900 cpu voltage to set. i changed n900 cpu voltage and lowered them than the default profile which is in use. will this make any hardware damage to my n900 ? so far its working fine with no restart and no battery draining.

I would suggest testing it by *recording* 720p 16:9 video (using freemandgordon's packages), at least few minutes long, and then, playing it back (also watching dmesg output) - it seems to be more "demanding" operation for SR-stability test, up to date.

For other parts of quoted post, 100% agree.

My phone does not random reboot on the Nokia kernel with SR on. Both VDD1 and VDD2 are enabled when I use the Nokia kernel.

I guess my next option is to try KP with only VDD1 on as some as suggested it is more stable for them.

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Devel

Wow! So I've been running KP kernels for a while... with the "ideal" profile" as any of the low voltage ones would cause my phone to hang/reboot. With that profile, I normally see about 2-3 hours (according to battery-eye) before my battery is drained down to 1000mAh.... after a nights charge.

I switched to "dsp" yesterday (with SR enabled) and I went about 5.5 hours this morning before hitting 1000mAh. That profile is stable for me so far... I have 27 hours on it. And I've been using the phone like normal, so the power consumption and reliability so far are great! I'll have to see how it is after a full day of usage... I normally get about 16-18 hours usage before my phone makes that sad almost-dead battery sound.

You're right, but in reverse ;) vdd2=1 is "more stable" than vdd1=1, currently.

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Devel

1) Because it can be installed separately, so no need to force using it on everyone
2 ) Because during standby state with AP connected, some things doesn't work (probably, power-saving) and it eats battery a lot. Pali introduced fix for this issue, but it can be installed only (almost) via CSSU, and CSSU devs need more people *without* KP installed use it, to confirm that it doesn't contain any bugs. My personal opinion is, that it should land in CSSU-testing anyway - well, it's testing, after all - but...

All of you that report battery drain problems check if you have any of the new u-boot versions installed. The drain is probably u-boot related and not kp related.
