Well, I had both enabled and only v31 was showing up. I then disabled extras and v32 was there. go figure....

As i said.. you would only have needed to update. Not disable the extras repo. It was unnecessary.

(So you know to next time)

Everything was fine on v27. Then updated to v32 and all appears ok other than i did encounter a crash when streaming video through the media player. Resulted in a straight reboot. Dont know if anyone else can reproduce this problem on v32?

EDIT: this was streaming over the 3G connection, not wi-fi.

im running pr 1.2 but no, this is not the reason. the video fails to record because of low voltages. just set the settings to "default" (titan has this kernel) and you can record agaid, or "reboot"

if you are still questioned, read this

I also have a strange problem that maybe someone could help me with. I have my setings called myxlv3. I edited the settings in leafpad with limits of 250 and 950. up threshold 95, sampling rate 350000 and ignore nice load = 1.

I load these with

kernel-config load myxlv3

and set them as default with

kernel-config default myxlv3

However everytime i reboot the phone the following get set:

up threshold = 75
sampling rate = 150000
ignore nice load = 0

but the strange thing is the limits of 250 and 950 (or whatever i set as default before reboot through kernel-config and saved as myxlv3) get set?!?!

So in order to change up threshold, sampling rate and ignore nice load to the values i choose i have to go

kernel-config load myxlv3

and then all is fine.

Strange thing is the ignore nice load being set to 0 as in titans settings it is set to 1 as default.

Can anyone help?

I just tried a youtube without problems.. you probably have too low voltage settings.

It does work but rebooted after about 5/6 minutes during playback. When i was encountering problems before, with too low voltages i'd get the unable to play media format not supported error. This was only with titans ulv and ideal settings, not with the xlv settings i'm currently using. And never encountered a problem previously with v27 and my current settings. May just be the voltages as you said though... thought i'd put it up in case it is a problem others are having!

more worried about my latest post regarding the settings changing upon reboot. Any help with that would be greatly appreciated?

And that you did correct. Feedback are a key element to a stable kernel.

I have not tried the "default" command yet. I did it back when it was "setdefault" and it have worked for me.

Edit: Have just tried the "default" command and it worked for me.

Could you post your xlv3 here? Maybe you have spelled something incorrect..

my xlv3 reads the following in leafpad:

# kernel configuration file generated by /usr/sbin/kernel-config
MINFREQ=250
MAXFREQ=950
FREQS="0:20,90 250:30,180 500:33,360 550:38,400 600:38,430 700:45,430 750:45,430 805:48,430 850:48,500 900:54,500 950:54,500 1000:60,500 1100:72,520 1150:72,520 "
SMARTREFLEX_VDD1=0
SMARTREFLEX_VDD2=0
GOVERNOR=ondemand
IGNORE_NICE_LOAD=1
UP_THRESHOLD=95
SAMPLING_RATE=350000
POWERSAVE_BIAS=0


i have also just noticed when clicking 'save as' in leafpad on this and any file, leafpad crashes and terminal reports 'Segmentation fault'. this never did this with v27. im definitely having stability problems with v32!
