Kernel]FPS 'fix' for Epson screens (WIP tearing fix, now testing @ 55fps
i just installed this kernel, not sure i did it right, only getting 30fps

i downloaded to my sd card and went into recovery mode and flashed, i also did a dalvik cache wipe

any idea? Am i missing something?
 
you have the 0.5.3 fresh rom.

I don't know why you are doing this. Using the fresh updater, if im reading this right, you should be able to download and flash the fps fix.

i have fresh 1.0 and got it and have hit 54 FPS on FPS2D

did you make a nandroid before flashing this?

what are you getting only 30 FPS on?
 
i did a nan back up first then i downloaded the kernel to the sd card, then i did a wipe, then i flashed the kernel.....

tell me what to do to get what you have
 
You are certain you have an Epson Panel? Second, if you are running Fresh .5.3 I would flash over amon ra recovery. Plays nice with the Fresh Updater unlike Clockwork Recovery which ON the Fresh Flipz states that Clockwork does not work with his updater.
 
Velocd is right. Are you sure you have an epson screen? If you have a novatek screen then you are using the wrong kernel. Ffolks has a kernel that breaks the 30 fps over at xda for evo's with novatek displays.
 
If you want to know which screen you have, do adb shell dmesg > somefile.txt and look at the file. It will either be fill with epson or novatek.

Do that first, then search the txt file for epson or nova. Whatever comes up is the screen you have. Then redownload the zip file for the correct screen. Second, which recovery are you running, clockwork or RA? Third, dont go and flash different kernels all willy nilly like that, you are bound to do something bad to your Evo.


Flashing RA Recovery

If you are using a Fresh Rom you need to flash over RA recovery. You can do this the manual way.
[Recovery] [18-June-2010] RA-evo-v1.7.0.1 - xda-developers

Or through ROM manager. Scroll all the way to the bottom, select flash alternate recovery.
 
Rooted with EVREVOKED 3 this morning. Flashed the FPS fix just now.............

no roms, just stock atm.
 
I think,being a noob, that adb is like a command interface....I have no idea how to use it...is there an alternate way to tell which screen I have???
