[KERNEL] 11-8-2011 - InfectedAnthrax Series (Sense, AOSP, & MegaSense) RC2.1
HTC EVO 3D CDMA/SPRINT Kernel
(Sense 3.0, Sense 3.5 AND AOSP/CM7/MIUI)
THIS THREAD IS FOR the AnthraX SERIES of kernels
mildAnthraX...................[SENSE 3.0] 100% stock HTC w/ overclocking enabled (stock cpu clock table from 192 to 1188MHz)
AOSP_mildAnthraX..........[AOSP/CM7/MIUI] Stock with mild tweaks, GPU and CPU OC
infectedAnthraX..............[SENSE 3.x] Balance of safety and performance (see change logs for details)
AOSP_infectedAnthrax.....[SENSE 3.x] Balance of safety and performance (see change logs for details)
MegAnthraX...................[SENSE 3.x] Pure raw performance, 320MHz gpu, higher cache speeds, FSB tweaks. 1.6V vdd_max
(while the voltage table/cpu table on mega and infected are the same, i raised the cap from 1.45 to 1.6 for those who wish to overvolt using a 3rd party utility such as system tuner)
*not every phone can run megAnthrax, and this kernel may break your phone, use at your own risk. this kernel is 100% identical to infected outside of GPU speed, Vdd cap, removal of the GPU Early suspend feature and cache vs. cpu speed table
Quote:
DISCLAIMERS:
1) overvolting/undervolting your phone may break it, brick it, cause it to melt, etc... do this at your own risk, and only if you know what you are doing. If YOU break your phone, please do not post on this thread about it.
2) overclocking your phone can break it, as you can see from reading this thread, this kernel has been 100% stable for quite a few, but some had issues. Overclock at your own risk.
3) not every phone can be over clocked, anything over 1.56 is considered unstable (on any of my kernels, well most any ones kernel)

CHANGE LOG
Code:
RC3 SENSE & AOSP (in progress)
-WORK IN PROGRESS - burstmode and ZSL camera drivers
-> from the HTC Amaze
-FIXED WiFi to work w/ Hydro (tested good) & AndroTECH Runny Sense 3.5 (works sometimes)
-reverted back to stock Input, power and battery drivers (some, not all, had issues with updated ones)
RC2.1 SENSE & AOSP (ready to infect)
-fixed bootloop some people (not all, but some) were having after installed (based off of the kmsg logs sent to me)
-2 versions, 1 with zram, 1 without zram (zram is still in experimental phase)
---> DISABLE WIFI OR 4G BEFORE FLASHING - HAVING BOTH ON AT THE SAME
TIME IS CAUSING PROBLEMS <---
-AOSP Version (Finally)
-3D camera and video still has issues, from porting ZSL and burstmode
RC2 SENSE (ready to infect)
-NEW BASE, MSM8x60 native 2.6.35.14 (not .13 patched to .14)
-clean up and optimized stuffs in RC1
-fix CPU hotplug notification
-hardware assisted unaligned accesses, compared to software based.
-updated smartassV2, and on-demand settings
-1.18GHz during boot up
-CIQ 100% removed - gone, poof :)
-made some changes to charging/battery to reducing freezing/lockups for some while charging
-fixed 192MHz lockup/freeze issue again...
-100% new RPCrouter
-100% stock HTC (and QUALCOMM) voltages from 192-1188
-100% stock QUALCOMM voltages on 1512 and 1536
-used MATHCAD to fill in the blanks from 1242-1458, and 1566+ for voltages w/ a 1.4V max
-new sound drivers with BEATS support (feedback from XDA users on previous version has been great)
*100% full 48khz, 24bit signal processing
-a lot backported from 3.x
-GPU Early suspend with 50ms wakeup period. (should allow EVERYONE to use EarlySuspend)
-fixed some stuff w/ cleancache that was broken in RC1
-updated CPU drivers
-new battery drivers are back
1) the hotter the phone, the slower the charge rate
2) slow mode charge after 95%
-fixed camera, i broke it in test 98
-opened VDD so anyone can over/under volt - do this at your own risk!!!
KNOWN ISSUE: 4G wont turn on unless you turn off WiFi first
-zram is back (new version), but not swapzram or zcache
-O2 optimized (final will be O3)
RC1 (ready to infect)
-upgraded back to super special SBA43 drivers (after all this is a sense 3.5 kernel) :)
-backported more kgsl from 3.0.4 to keep nemamark working (still over 50fps @ 1.7GHz)
-set default speed to 1.53GHz
-fixed Synchronous Multicore Threading to be more efficient (this feature will look like dualcore mode in sys information apps, but its not)
made some changes to the thread scheduler for more performance
removed a lot more redundant code
an example to explain redundant code:
(if x=1 then goto 3, else goto 3)
why not just goto 3?? and save some cpu cycles??
-disabled swap, we really dont need it on the 3D and most roms dont take advantage of it
-fixed random reboot issue that happened to a couple of people when phone was in deepsleep
-ported KGSL turbo mode from the sensation (but deleted LOW mode)
-fully 100% OpenGL 2.0 compliant
-updated bluetooth drivers (faster)
-fixed ONDEMAND governor, may cause reboots in B03
-BEATS support in the KERNEL!!! thanks to a magical unicorn for the source!
*CONFIRMED BY MY TESTERS TO fix sound quality issues people are having with BEATS
*SUPER LOUD AND CLEAN ASS BASS
-fixed 3D driver for lcd panel (reverted back to STOCK) (3d image viewing got broken in B03 for some, not all)
-WiFi sensitivity is set to -108
-Updated to FULL AUDIO drivers (including mixer) from Sensation XL
-fixed 192 as MIN FREQ (had wake up issues in previous releases)
...in the hands of the beta testers
-fix: removing some of the sense 3.5 enhancements that don't play well with sense 3.0 (only the ones causing conflict)
-REMOVED: support for 2-way call recording, conflicts with beats
......in the hands of the beta testers
-TWO versions available
Early Suspend for GPU - less performance, better battery
NO Early Suspend for GPU - better performance, less battery
*****some phones like ES, while some phones like NO ES
**TESTED FOR 3 DAYS BETWEEN 14 TESTERS, ONLY 2 ISSUES OF LOCKUPS/FREEZES
REPORTED, NOT ALL PHONES ARE THE SAME, EXAMPLE: 4 DAYS ON MY PHONE, NOT 1 ISSUE
WITH HEAVY USAGE... STILL NOT FINAL, I DO STILL EXPECT SOME PROBLEMS.
New in Final Beta B03 (pre-RC1) (ready to infect)
removed dualcore mode binaries (included with most roms)
downgraded from SBA43 to SBA42 - should help with nemamark users
(nemamark now works, 52fps@1.7GHz)
relaxed securty a bit
yes, CIQ is still disabled
modified ONDEMAND governor, should react faster
Ziggy's Custom LAGFREE as default governor
updated usb drivers
adjusted wifi sensitivity to -98
enabled wifi calling
reverted back to original camera (new one was working great for some, and causing issues for others)
removed Ziggy's Dual Core (can be added back in by ROM developer)
increased GPU Scaling steps in 2d from 2 steps to 6 (27,96,160,200,228,266) vs previous release of (200,233)
increased GPU Scaling steps in 3d from 3 steps to 8 (27,128,160,177,200,228,266,300) vs previous release of (27,200,228,266)
increased KSL process page table from 128M to 256M+64K cache
ZRAM and SWAPZRAM removed due to performance issues as well as random reboots (i can enable in the future if demand is high enough)
trying a different version of 2-way call record to see if it solved the BSOD on incomming calls.
used Virus's VM settings
New in Beta B02.2 (PRIVATE BETA)
fixed dualcore mode binaries
zram is now universal with any sense rom (well - atleast with VirusROMs, but any rom w/ busybox and init.d support should work)
(the ONLY difference between this and 2.1 is ZRAM is auto enabled w/ any rom that supports init.d and has busybox)
New in Beta B02.1
zram
swap(by popular demand)
swapzram
some 3.x.x back porting
*swap and zram included, but must be activated by your rom
Compressors / Decompressors: XZ (NEW), GZIP, BZIP2, LZMA, LZO
New in Beta B02
added some more steps for GPU OC - should yeild better battery life, and smoother operation
fixed some errors with 1.89GHz OC

known issues:
Code:
-no WiFi on Synergy, but fine on all other Sense 3.x roms
-Wiping cache AFTER flashing (both of em) seems to reduce a lot of problems.
Best practice is to wipe before and after flashing any kernel.
-sprint hotspot breaks (3rd party hotspots are confirmed by many others to work)
*ONLY AFFECTS SOME USERS* black screen on incomming calls - fixed by disabling auto brightness
-wifi is broken on the 3.5 roms on xda
-QUADRANT causes issues for some, but not all users. (maybe fixed)
-Having WiFi and 4G (WiMax) on at the same time can cause bootloops, disable 1 or the other before flashing

use at your own risk. very limited support can be provided for hboot 1.50 users, but i will do my best.
this is tested on my phone and by beta testers before each release. since every phone is different, your phone may break by using this.
I do my best to test on different phones to insure that nothing bad happens, but i cant promise anything.
before i upload each version, i test the following on Eternity 1.4 , hboot 1.04 ENG, HW001, OCed to 1.512 LAGFREE w/ USB connected (for logging)
(I also ask my beta testers to this this as well)
install the kernel, and reboot x2 times, then test:
wifi, 3g, 4g, sdcard, usb, voice, sms, mms, voice incomming, voice outgoing, usb diskdrive mode
and i test the following apps: root explorer, gtalk (3g and wifi), gmail (3g and wifi), browser (3g and wifi)
and i run the following benchmarks: quadrant advanced, AnTuTu, cfbench, and rlbench (as a stress test)
i cycle wifi on and off x2 times, and connect to 3 different access points (open, WEP, and WPA)
i cycle 4g on and off x2 times
install and remove a random app from market
*AOSP version is tested on the latest MIUI build
if there is any sign of a problem, i dont upload

[KERNEL] 10-24-2011 - Magical Unicorn
Source Code can be found on my thread there -> [KERNEL] 10-24-2011 - Magical Unicorn
while not my 1st kernel, this is my 1st SENSE kernel - any feedback is welcome - good or bad.
I have been a C and C++ programmer (in addition to COBOL and RPG-IV) for over 5 years (the kernel for these phones is done in C) for the US Government, I am not a 18 year old who learned from a 20 page book on how to make a kernel. I still have a professional relationship with Qualcomm (a local comany in San Diego) and CodeAurora, that i hope to use to make this the kernel of kernels.
