Sorry for not posting this last night, ended up falling asleep on the couch right after diner.
Also, still no AOSP, I’ll work on that over the long weekend.

Changelog:
Updated the HTC addons to Incredible MR3
Tweaked the conservative governor to 50K sampling instead of 200K
Tweaked the smartass governor
Disabled 802.11n, the speed increase wasn’t that much and the power draw was too much
Enabled 128MHz by request

Of course, it’s still OCd, UVd, BFS357, ck2.

  Hi we need a kernel for the new 2.3.3 sense evo rom. your cfs kernel works great but the camera…
• Ziggy471 posted on January 1, 2011
  Try the newer kernels. Most likely though, it's a voltage issue.
• BackYardSpecial posted on January 1, 2011
  Just tried to flash this kernel instead of the stock HTC kernel built into Warm RLS4 on evo. Phone reboots…

Changelog:

Added LZMA compression for the kernel image, makes it uber small. This should help with the few non-booters still left. Also, since it’s so small, EVERYTHING is built in, except wifi and on the EVO, wimax.
Moved the default boot speed back down to 998MHz, didn’t realize that some couldn’t run 1.113GHz, sorry about that.
Removed ALL debugging support in the kernel, this will speed it up and also makes it smaller.

Everything else is still the same, ck2, BFS357, BFQ, SLUB, CIFS, EXT4, gpu+, sd card speed up, etc…

Until I figure some things out with the AOSP kernels, I will not be releasing anymore, sorry.

Finally, for those that asked about the tweeks script I posted, it’s set for 1.113GHz max, if you want something different, edit the script and reboot. It’s the same script I had included in previous kernels, but had taken out for reasons.

Changelog:

All:
Overclocking to 1.19GHz

Tweaks:
Since some have asked, I put together an update zip with the screen state scaling init script and I also included a sysctl.conf by Mr. X and an init script to start it.
[TWEAKS] Ziggy's tweaks (1048 downloads)

Edit: The screen state scaling scales the processor to between 245MHz and 384MHz when the screen is turned off, this is to save on battery power when you’re not using the phone. It sets the governor to ONDEMAND when the screen is off, and INTERACTIVE when the screen is on. I find this responds faster when turning the screen on. As for the sysctl.conf, I’ll have to have X explain all the tweaks in there.

  Thanks for the great kernels Ziggy! Loving it on my DInc!

For those that were interested in more info on the smartass governor, here’s and excerpt from erasmux’s flykernel.

smartass governor – is based on the concept of the interactive governor.
I have always agreed that in theory the way interactive works – by taking over the idle loop – is very attractive. I have never managed to tweak it so it would behave decently in real life. Smartass is a complete rewrite of the code plus more. I think its a success. Performance is on par with the “old” minmax and I think smartass is a bit more responsive. Battery life is hard to quantify precisely but it does spend much more time at the lower frequencies.
Smartass will also cap the max frequency when sleeping to 352Mhz (or if your min frequency is higher than 352 – why?! – it will cap it to your min frequency). Lets take for example the 528/176 kernel, it will sleep at 352/176. No need for sleep profiles any more!

Of course, the frequencies are different than what he used, since we have better processors than the Hero.

I finally think I’ve figured out git. lol

So I’ve updated my github with all the changes I made recently, each is just a branch of the mainline 2.6.32.25.

Ziggy’s GitHub

Enjoy,

Alright, applied the netarchy FPS paches. Sorry about that, not having an Evo to test on, I forgot.

  Multitouch has been reduced to 2 points from 5. FPS is a bit more erratic with slightly larger STD.
• Jerry Lange posted on November 8, 2010
  i am having graphics issues, so i am not using this kernal till that is fixed.

  Same here....Can't OC. What happened?

Note1: These kernels ARE NOT overclocked, but are slightly undervolted.
Note2: I’ll have my github updated hopefully this weekend.  So please wait to update the XDA threads.

Even without over-clocking, you’ll be surprised at the speed.
