Custom kernel for M6Pro

[d33]

Hi, do you think we can make it one for M8hd ?

Also is it compatible for kitkat ?

As my sig says, I have a Pipo M8HD so that is always possible but Tablet development takes a heap of time to get right due to the number of variants in components (particularly screens) and the GPIOs.

A collection of 'stock' .configs with component/GPIO would be superb if someone can provide all the manafacturers to provide them to us. It would save a heap of time re-inventing the wheel.

Maakie,

Can you post your .config and report which source you are using to build this kernel? I have just uploaded a reportedly tablet kernel source to github; I'd like to get a 'factory' approach to this so we can build kernels for as many Pipo/Cube/etc models as possible given that official support is being removed by the manufacturer's due to new RK3288 models.

Can you also supply hardware config for the M6pro and what GPIO settings you needed to amend?

I have made a new kernel which should show a more accurate battery level when booted with the charger connected. There is also some other minor changes.

You can download it here.

Thank you giouncino
Finally I solved my 3G issue.... It was the sim card blocked

BTW where did you exactly post the link?
I can't find it.....

Thank you so much

all are exactly the same.
The most important thing is to use the libril file I posted here! (that is the kitkat stock libril)

Which kernel is better for 3g on RR 1.8.1?

OK. I might not described it well. It is clearly a faster standby discharge problem which causes general faster discharge too.

It's very strange because only with 1.4 kernels deep sleep is working, so I supposed battery could lasts more wrt stock kernel that have deep sleep disabled!

I asked you that only to undestand if it was a problem of stanby discharge or a general faster discharge problem!
It's not a matter of believing!!!!

It's quite easy to measure. Flashback the stock kernel - with modified clocks by you - and leave your tab on standby. Sometimes you can check battery log for making sure yourself. Here am I typing, the tablet's battery is on standby since two days, charge level is 92%.
I flashed back the stock kernel because I remembered that it has much better standby times than the custom ones. As far as I remember I made a statement about this some times ago already. So test it yourself if you are not believing me master.

Are you sure?
How can you say that?

And the stock kernel discharging the device about 3% a day while the custom one eats about 10% of the juice.

Re: Custom kernel for M6Pro

After a fresh install of the whole kitkat ROM I tested the boot time with stock and your kernel:

STOCK Kernel: 34 seconds

Your Kernel: 1 minute and 12 seconds

Do you know why with your kernel is it so slow on booting?

I don't have Miracast device which makes this problem hard to fix for now.
