[KERNEL] [TEST] CyanogenMod 6 - Droid Incredible Android Development

A test/stock anykernel for CM6 inc is up on rom manager under the Koush section. Please test it out and let me know how it compares. I am working on tracking down some instability issues.

Having issues with built in tethering says error. Pre 9 seems to work however after toggling wifi.
Anyone else?

Used it for a day...
I'd have to say one of the biggest downfalls was that it didn't have most features within the kernel enabled. I didn't notice any immediate problems even with the stock kernel, unless what I ran into (described below) might be involved.
When trying to initially download the new kernel via ROM Manager, I was in a location where cell was -120 dBm (basically non-existent) but I had Wifi. Wifi always seemed to take forever to link up, unless I went into settings (then it'd find the AP immediately and connect). ROM Manager basically said it couldn't do anything, despite having Wifi. I don't know enough about the inner Android workings to know if that's unrelated or not.
With the new one I noticed mainly I had very few governors to work with. TBH I only spent a day with it because I couldn't stand how often I ended up having to charge it. I don't OC so that sort of thing has never been an issue - just UC
Edit -- I should mention I'm using 2.15.00.09.01 baseband and CyanogenMod-6-09202010-NIGHTLY-Inc build. Haven't tried newer dailies yet.

2.15.00.09 radio literally KILLED my battery. I went back to 2.15.00.07 and battery life is great again. FYI.

Everything is good for me with this kernel. No issues. Flashed it last night.

At the moment, I'm using Miui but wanted to note that this is the only kernel which allows Pre-9 Wifi tether to work on Miui (in my hands, King's #1 and #2 AOSP kernels gave me errors with Wifi Tether). Thanks for providing this kernel, Koush. Will give it a try with CM and see how that goes.

I had a soft reboot last night with this new kernel while I was on facebook. 0 wifi used.
Radio 2.15.00.07

Not sure if it's the kernel or just the latest nightly, but I'm loosing my data connection quite often. Otherwise, its running great.

My built in wifi tethering isn't working either....sad day. I was loving how fast my phone charged

New version, number. 11 is online, testing now.

I haven't had any problems with this kernel yet even on wifi. I have also noticed decent battery life.

Funny, I'm running the test2 on Ruby as well. Been rock stable for 4hours. Practically a record for my phone on Ruby. Hope it makes it through the night.

Using the "test2" kernel.
Built in tethering works for me.
I'm running the 9/27 nightly.
No other issues so far.
P.S. I would love if internal memory was mounted properly in Windows.

Does anyone know if this new kernel is underclocked?

Another question would be, does anyone know if test kernel #1 or #2 is the test kernel in rom manager?

showing up as a 245-998mhz one with compcache optional... Not that I put much credence in quadrant scores, but I'm pulling over a 1300 on that. So plenty quick.

Also does anyone know if its undervolted?

#2 is running at default clock.
So far looking good on test#2 for me (9.26 nightly). I just had a meeting in a location where the phone has frozen up nearly every time I was running CM 6.02 or any previous build and it worked fine. If I make it out to lunch, then back home later today without a freeze I think we may have a winner. Or at least I'll have a winner...

I grabbed the test kernel on friday night via the ROM manager, am I running the latest test, or is there a new one with the same name? In other words do I have to redo it to get the test #2 I am seeing comments about?

I am running test2 and my only issue is with wifi cutting out and erroring out when running things like streaming media in the background, but no reboots. Tt just cuts out the wifi, and resumes relatively well upon turning the screen back on. For some reason the screen being off sets off a timer that cuts out the wifi after a while. I've tested this with both Pandora and Slacker. No cut outs when running over 1x CDMA (3G doesn't work in my office) except when my signal becomes nonexistant.

CM7 Nightly + Dalingrin's OC Kernel Wifi issues

Hello,
So Using CM7 latest nightly along with Dalingrin's latest 2.6.32 OC kernel i cannot seem to get WiFi to work whatsoever (using all 14 channels). WiFi just says "Disconnected" and will not connect to any network. I have tried flashing multiple different CM7 Nightlys, wiping the cache partition and dalvik cache (although whenever i wipe dalvik cache in CWM it freezes...), all to no avail. Every time my WiFi still does not work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks,
Moriarty
The system that I am using right now is built with the following pieces:
-- generic-sdcard-v1.3.img
-- gapps-gb-20110307-signed
-- update-cm-cm_encore_full-98
-- update-CM7-dalingrin-OC-sd-060911
This system has been up for about two days and seems to be ok with no wifi problems.
Good luck.

Thats what i am using now but it still does not work... I am not sure what the reason is, OC kernel will also not go above 925Mhz....
I'm having an odd issue with wifi too... though not as bad. I can connect fine, but every reboot turns the wifi off. I have to turn back on and all is fine again.

Mine has always been like that... I wish i had that small of an issue
I wonder if this is just a worse version of the Wifi issues that sometime plague NCs? I thought that the nooks have trouble connecting to different forms of encryption and whatnot.

Are you sure you installed the OC kernel correctly? That is the top OC for the stock nightly kernel.
Not having wifi issues with n100 or the latest OC kernel; I did in a much earlier nightly only for my home router but it turned out to be one of these router-related issues: a) it was on a very crowded channel, which I changed b) was running TKIP/AES which I changed to TKIP only (seems to have worked for others here so I tried it as well).
Have not had a single drop since, and I've used it at Starbucks, several university wifi hotspots (different buildings), and at home.

Well, in About it says my kernel is 2.6.32 which i would think meant that i installed it correctly... Although not sure if my Dalvik Cache was wiping correctly, seeing as it would freeze immediately after wiping

All the nightlies past 77(? I think) run on the 2.6.32 kernel. My kernel version running on latest Dalingrin OC kernel is 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #63. I'm not sure if this changes with updating to OC kernel at all, I usually just know OC kernel is flashed correctly when the higher clock rates are available in CM7 performance settings.
Dalvik cache wiping on CWR 3.0.2.8 freezes after the wipe. The latest version, 3.2.0.1, fixes that issue.
Using CM7 on SD card
I recently decided to try out a nightly and picked 98. Did not add overclock kernel just used it as it came.
Been using CM 7.0.3 with overclock to 1100 and have had no problems with wifi, browsing speed or Force closes. Only problem is battery life is not great.
Nightly 98 seems to be great for battery life, but wifi has an intermittent problem. When I wake it up in the morning from charging I find I cannot get a wifi connection unless I reboot it.
Wonder if others have same problem.
I have gone back to CM 703 as the battery life is not as inconvenient as I charge it every night anyway.
Do you guys have the wifi manager app installed?
Like I said my system have been up for more than two days and wifi seems ok:
-- the wifi is off when it goes to sleep and comes back up when I wake it up.
-- I watch movies on Netflix and it is up for as long as I watched the movie
-- there may be some small problems but I have not seen them yet
i had this too. There is a bug with airplane mode : if you use it, then uncheck the airplane mode it stay marked as checked in internal cm7 settings, you can uncheck it with this app : https://market.android.com/details?id=com.advancedprocessmanager&feature=search_result
YES
Ok, THANK YOU This led me to searching for the answer and eventually finding it.
The SQL didn't really work for me but this did (and it is much less tedious)
1. activate wifi
2. go to wifi scanning
3. Forget one secured SSID
4. add a secured SSID: (Manually type in your WiFi Name + Password)
Hope this helps anyone who accidentally enables Airplane Mode and ends up with this bug....

Got Nightly 98 + OC 0613, and I always get wifi connection issues after deep sleep, if I left Wifi on beforehand. Have to reboot too then. But it's been an issue for me for a while, with previous nightly and OC too.

Thanks so its not just my NC as I you have my problem. Will try a later nightly and see if it still happens. Meanwhile I am happy with CM703 OC to 1100
I am sure it will get sorted out eventually.

Frustrating wi-fi reliability issues

My Droid 4 seems to have issues maintaining a wi-fi connection to some networks.
At home, it will connect and work for a while, but eventually stop passing data. It will still show connected, though. It will stay in this state until I turn wi-fi off and back on again.
At work, it often has issues connecting and will show "authentication problem" even though the credentials are correct. With enough trying, it will eventually connect, but won't stay connected.
iPhone, iPads, PCs, Macs and other types of Android phones work OK on these networks.
My old Droid 3 had the same issue.
On some other wi-fi networks, it seems OK.
What gives?
I'm currently a recent build of CM9, but it did the same when it was stock 2.3.6.

Ugh, me too and it was driving me absolutely crazy. I'm on AOKP now (think the build from a few days ago) and it (WiFi) works perfectly now. I know this, because mobile data keeps dropping (argh) but I'm still getting e-mail, etc (but I can't send MMS at least).
Most days I am in solid WiFi coverage, so I am dealing with dodgy mobile data in exchange for stable WiFi. Anybody know if eclipse fixes this issue?
Edit: I'm glad you made this post so I know I am not crazy. Part of the changelog for the 219 update was a WiFi fix, and I was very disappointed when it didn't seem to help...

I've been on Eclipse since it was first ported and I have never had any data issues on 4G/3G or wifi. But I've only connected to 2 or 3 wifi networks so I could just be lucky there. 4G/3G connectivity is perfect.

Yea, I really do have to check Eclipse out. The only thing holding me back is that I'm getting (what I consider) stupid-good battery life with AOKP. Plus, I just did a factory reset on ICS to fix notifications, which means I just set everything back up
Have you spent any time on Wifi using the stock ROM? I'm lucky to get half an hour of Wifi connectivity before it just dies (but still pretends to be connected). No problem with wireless tethering (AOKP or stock). Sometimes I am convinced they don't actually test these things before pushing them out...

I never had any problem with stock either. I would run it on wifi all day at home on a Saturday and never had any drops. I just set up a new router last running dd-wrt so we will see how that goes.
You should definitely check out Eclipse. You lose a few of the ICS goodies but it's totally worth it in my opinion not to have to worry about data dropping out. Battery life has been phenomenal for me on Eclipse. I've been getting through a whole day with 40% - 50% battery left when I finally plug it in a night.
Just backup up your current ROM in safestrap that way, if you don't like Eclipse, you can just restore your backup and your back on AOKP with everything just as you left it!
I've used AOKP for over a week and I don't recall having wifi issues. Which build were you on? I used nightly 29/4. Now I'm back to stock because of BT and Camera. Other than that I had no issues.

I haven't really tweaked it or anything. No undervolting/underclocking or anything like that. I have the 4G toggle installed and switch 4G off when I'm sitting at my desk at work and I'm connected to wifi when I get home in the evening. I don't do anything special other than that. I am still running version 1.3.7 as a couple of people have reported that 1.3.8 broke auto capitalization and not having that would drive me nuts.
Guess I wasn't clear enough. Both on AOKP 29/4 and stock 219 I encountered no WiFi issues. And I use it a lot. I have to because when I switch to 3G for faster internet I loose audio (GSM 3G not working yet). So what I mean to say is, not sure what your problem with WiFi is or where it's coming from. I ran AOKP for at least a week. And I've been running 219 since I got my phone (except for that specific week that is). Not once has WiFi stopped working or glitched for that matter.

Anything not work in the new leak?

Since upgrading will take you off the upgrade path, I was just wondering if there is something on the new build that isn't working.
Like camera, video, data etc.
Honestly, I wouldn't jump on it unless you really need it (I've heard it makes GSM work a lot better). AFAIK, it hasn't even been rooted yet, which means you are giving up a LOT just to get ICS, which you can do from the stock rom and safestrap.
If you root just before flashing and use voodoo rootkeeper you can keep root. I unfortunately forgot to re-root after I needed to flash SBF (wouldn't update). So far everything works for me. Well except root that is. But to tell you the truth. I only used root to change the build.prop and have write access to system (notifications etc). Owh and freeze apps. But thats it.
So far so good! The battery won't last as long as on 219. But by how much I'll have to test. On 219 I ran in 2G mode all the time. So it isn't a real fair comparison. Yesterday I turned off all sync and push and disabled some applications. So we'll see how long it will last today.. I took it off the charger around 07:50 AM. So don't expect an update 'till tomorrow. It's only 08:50 AM where I live .
For the gsm users i recommend this update if you can go with no root
The rom is actually more responsive and most importantly, it dun drop the line that often
And ics with WORKING camera & video, not much is missing actually
According to this, you can keep root if you install OTA Rootkeeper, back up root, temp unroot, restore root, and THEN apply the update.
I updated and kept root and am very impressed with every aspect of performance on this build.
Battery life the first day was excellent, above average considering I was playing with the phone a lot.
Radio performance on VZW's network with this new baseband is exceptional.
Data throughput and transitions from cellular to WiFi and maintaining data connection were all distinctly improved. I am in a marginal 3g only area where I live and work 90% of the time, but I can go a few miles away to get LTE coverage.
While I cannot openly recommend flashing non revertable leaks to anyone, I cannot say enough about how much I am enjoying this build right now. I have yet to find any downside beyond the fact that we have no full firmware files for this build yet.
This is a superlative build and anyone willing to accept the risk should not be disappointed.
25 hours later there's 30% battery remaining. Made 5 1-minute phone calls. Played about 20 minutes of 3D games. Used internet a couple of times (checked email, whatsapp, some internet apps) and I would say at 90% 3G connection. So that's not so bad I would say.
Stuff not Working
For me, my Facebook app (built-in) is not working, and constantly crashes. I finally disabled the app completely to stop getting the crash pop-ups.
Also, built-in MotoCast disappeared, and it does not show up for me in the Play Store (probably because they have not released an ICS version of the app for non-tablets yet in the Store).
Other than those 2 so far, everything I have tested and checked works like a dream come true.
Everything is working great for me. The ota rootkeeper worked as well. Im running the leak with root.. the facebook app that came on the leak needs update. Its an older version. May be the reason

Please be more specific about the headphones.
I haven't had any issues with Klipsch X10 headphones at all, but mine is only a 2 prong headset, without microphone or call control features.
I've had some odd headphone issues and I am NOT on the leak.
I'll plug in headphones, but the phone won't switch from the loudspeaker to the headphones. Unplugging and replugging the headphones in usually fixes the issue. Kind of annoying, but I use headphones so infrequently on my phone anyway that I haven't done any hard investigating on whether it is a software or hardware issue.
I'm leaning towards hardware though, because IIRC it happens on stock and the GB-ICS frankenbuilds.
This may be a stupid question but does anyone know if there is going to be a way to reverse being taken off the upgrade path? Im new to the forums and I just started getting into rooting and flashing roms. Im running a nightly build of the aokp ics with cm9. Im happy with it so far but would love to use my camcorder again lol. Are there any other issues with this version of ics?
I dont know about reversing the upgrade path but i do know that everything works really great on my d4 running the leaked ics.

You SHOULD be able to get back on the upgrade path using the same method others have used to go from the .200 ICS leak to the .206 ICS leak. That involves a partial flash of the .219 fastboot file to essentially trick the update into thinking you are still on .219. But there are no guarantees.
I see. Thank you for your input. One more thing does anyone know if the gummy rom has been updated? I was using it for a few days but decided to go to the aokp for better 4g functionality.

GPS problems with lte

When I have a 4g connection my GPS doesn't work. The second it goes into 3g the GPS picks up. Pictures attached are GPS status started in 4g and right after it switched to 3g
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk 2
Wish I had a solution for you, but I've had ridiculously fast lock on times in GPS Status with both 3g and 4g. Only thing I've done is install viperROM and Wolfpack kernel. Can't remember off hand if either of those have had GPS enhancements.
Hope you find a fix.

Not sure if my situation is related, but on two separate occasions, I also lost GPS all together. I wasn't paying attention to 3G/4G, but like yours, it was also 0/0 satellites; however, if I were to restart the app, the satellites came back. I let my phone try to find signal for five minutes or so the first time this occurred to no avail. Could have been just fluke occurrences, but we'll see if it happens a third time.
Question: Does re-routing take a little longer than usual for anyone else? I noticed that when I made a different turn today, it took a good probably 10 seconds to re-route. Not sure if my phone is just wonky or what, but my GPS has definitely not been up to par.

Hey guys, I had posted a while back saying that for some reason, after flashing the new build of Marshmallow to my Nexus 6, the load times for web pages and just about everything else seems to be a bit slower than usual. I had said at the end of the post that it was fixed, but now the problem is arising again. Is anyone noticing long load times with all apps that use internet? Web pages load slower, the Facebook app takes much longer to load pictures and posts, Skype took longer to login and show everyone's profile pics etc. Never had this problem before on lollipop!
EDIT: Also, when I switch between my 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz WiFi bands, it shows a push notification that says that this WiFi signal has no internet access, and then it connects just fine after a few more seconds. This is odd. Maybe just a buggy first run of Marshmallow?

It's not loading really at all, but that's also due to my LTE coverage being awful in my area, that's always been bad haha so no change there. My other devices in the house are working just fine on my network, the Nexus 6 however seems to load slower, and it's only now that I'm on Android 6.0! Is it working fine for you?
EDIT: Just an update here, hours later, it may be my internet connection, possibly. But I'm not 100% sure on that either. If nobody else is having this issue, it may just be. Like I said though, it seems to be working fine with my other devices!
EDIT 2: http://imgur.com/gallery/TGiCU55 This is a speed test I did on my phone, I have 30Mbps internet and that shows!
I'm having same issue. Dirty flash. Kinda wondering if a clean factory reset is in order.
no issues here....came from a clean flash, which is standard protocol.
M seems fast so far, but I did change my animations Scale from 1.00 to .50! The only website to load very slow is XDA... go figure!

Yup. I did same. I might try the lollipop radio. Idk...
XDA is always sloooooow, even on a fast PC.
I've seen several other people mention slow net speeds on M as well but I've not noticed it yet. The WiFi code of M caused issues awhile back on some previous builds of HellsCore kernel too. I dont know the specifics of it though.

So there was a definite change in the radio for this build then. More than a subtle change. I wonder if it's just not perfect, I realize having a Nexus means getting the first run of all Android software, but I wonder if this is a bug in the build, or a radio that could use some work. But it does sometimes take longer to load things! I'm on very fast WiFi too!

I honestly don't know and would like to hear more specifics. I can tell you I've seen comments on this board the last couple fo days talking about massive WiFi battery drain as well.
I only know HellsCore adopted the newer M code for WiFi in his kernel and people were affected. He then had to create two builds of the kernel. One with newer WiFi code that didn't cause any issues for people and another build with the older WiFi code from L. Have you checked his G+ site?

No I haven't! I'll check that out! So that leads me to believe that it was a change in the new radio! He had to change it to code used in L radio so that may be it! Thanks for the info! I'll look into that some more!
Is it possible to flash the lollipop radio to test? I'd think you could. But I'm not 100%.

So you're saying if I flash the radio file from a 5.1.1 stock image, marshmallow will boot and work correctly? I might try that!

Hey guys! An update here, I just read through another post that was about this same issue, and someone in there said that downloading DNset from the play store fixes this issue! It changes your WiFi settings from ipv4/ipv6 to just ipv4. I did it and it's working so far, but I'm going to give it some more testing and see if it fixed! Try it out

Were you able to solve your slow page load issue?
I having same issue coming out of the box with a new N6P.
On TMO & Wifi - my old OPO had no issues.
But seems at least on LTE about town, my pages for social media & browsers are sloooooow.

Hey dude, well honestly it didn't seem to fix it. Placebo effect lol What I think it comes down to is just Marshmallow being rough around the edges at this point because I have stock rooted Marshmallow 6.0 on my Nexus 6 and have cyanogenmod 12.1 installed as a secondary ROM, When booted into cyanogenmod, pages load much faster and it's more responsive as far as I can tell! So, it must be a bug with Marshmallow! Keep in mind cyanogenmod 12.1 uses Android 5.1.1 as a base!
