[DEV-ONLY][KERNEL]Bricked - Sweep2Wake - HTC EVO 3D

Testing done. Source up. Happy picking.
I wrote this for the Sensation and mdeejay did harass me to port it over to the shooteru (I don't own an EVO), well:
Challenge accepted!
Download: Don't click me anymore...
Source: Click me...
I ported my work from the Sensation and modified it quite extensively to work with the atmel driver instead of the cy8c one from the Sensation.
The first version had some problem with the capacitive leds (null pointer dereference ), thanks to the logs of @teihoata this could be fixed.

Hi,
Let me clarify that I am not a DEVELOPER, or LOGGER or TESTER of any sorts
I just want to put forth that a similiar thing called Slide2Wake, which was developed by bponury on our XDA forums was released somewhere ealrier this year. It was actually coded much earlier but wasnt released. I remember coming across it during Kamma's kernel time, which is in October or November 2011.
This is his thread ;
http://forum.ponury.net/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=354&sid=837533d86c47eac9495375908d131899
In his thread, he allowed us to port in certain kernel module, which allows any kernel developer to include. This inclusion will allow us to do "Slide 2 wake"
Once the kernel code is included, users of the HTC EVO3D are to download an app called ;
Ponury Gesture Mod (currently version 1.4)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.ponury.pgm&hl=en
This app allows an interface to configure the "Slide 2 wake" feature, which if you watch his Youtube here;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GswWnvxuCXk
You will find out its the similiar thing with your "Sweep 2 wake" function
However, Ponury's one is kernel module and app, based only for EVO3D.
The app allows you to turn it off, and on, and separately if you only need 1 part of it to work.
Some kernels currently that definitely support it are Leedroid's latest, Anthrax latest and Anryl's latest, while some other kernels like Unity3b by Mdeejay doesnt
I noticed capacitive buttons LED bugs exist, depending on the ROM and the Tweaks.apk settings and Autobrightness, etc. Overall, it works almost most of the time.
What I would like to know is how different is your "Sweep 2 wake" compared to "Slide 2 wake" for us to give this a whirl ?
I remember battery drain issues with screen off present due to the fact that the screen is consistently trying to register touches in a particular fashion, and if you touch the screen for 30 minutes non stop (like I did once in a meeting), these touches are still being recorded and using battery. The screen didnt turn ON (because I was randomly touching everywhere else besides the buttons), yet when I checked some logs and task monitors, it showed that I kept interacting with the kernel and CPU was busy. This did drain battery. The only way it did drain actually.
Apologize in advance for this post if it messes up your thread, and effort.
I can dwell into the testing of this , once some things are clarified
Much thanks for your effort, and Mdeejay of course

Yes, and since we never saw the source of the slide2wake and it was made into a money making machine, I wrote it myself from scratch and opensource
It completely works with interrupts, meaning: As long as you don't constantly touch your screen with capacitive material (like your finger) there will be no additional battery drain and the phone will sleep as usual.
Additionally this is completely kernel side, so no other apps or anything else "bloating" is required. (and is has a on/off switch)
This also lights up the capacitive buttons as soon as you start sweeping so that you can see the buttons in total darkness. (not shown in the video because it was not in there at that time)
A lot of bugfixes and work went into the sensation version and I don#t expect anything else to be needed here. So it is more than likely that the zImage above will not even work remotely like what I just described.

It's great.

Chad had ported showp's mod to the CDMA evo 3d, but removed it - worked great while it lasted.

---

Testing done, source is up, op edited. Happy picking.

Awesome work!

How can I test this ? I am using anryl's kernel. Can the zImage be integrated somehow ?. I am not an expert to go into source code territory

Code:
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot boot C:\Path\to\shooter_sweep2wake_zImage_v2
This will only boot the kernel once, a reboot will reset it to your installed kernel and since there are no modules delivered, wifi will be broken.

is it safe or will brick my phone ?

This is a dev thread, though this should be safe there will be no guarantee. Just like any other kernel in the whole Dev section.

I think, this is very them same as slide2wake.
The bad think on slide2wake was, that the touch interface was always online, what resulted in a abnormal battery consumption. I hope this is not so in this Mod...

Didn't the creator say some stuff about how the screen only woke up when it was pressed?
That didn't really work because if you have chinos on and the phone is in your pocket then the screen just stays on :L

As long as the cloth is not so thin that you can look through it and it is made out of a non capacitive material there will be no problem. But who does put his/her smartphone in the trouser-pocket without having it in the phones bag? (or: who does not have a bag for his/her 600 Euro++ phone? )

I didn't really understand how to install this, can you explain it one more time? Thanks.

Connect phone to pc and type those commands in cmd(assuming adb and fastboot are in PATH)

Will it replace my kernel or just integrate some modules in it?
upd. It stucked on HTC logo and thats all.

gonna wait for this till i see a succesfull flash, idea is great tough..

This is not meant as a release, it was meant as a development post to help getting debug output for a port (since I don't own the device). I gathered enough debug output to fix up the remaining issues, mdeejay confirmed that it works on his phone flawless and I put up the source. Because I don't own an EVO and I only develop for devices I own, I will not maintain a separate kernel. You should be able to get this sweep2wake port @ mdeejays kernels soon.

I believe most people only have a case rather than a bag. With the case on, the surface of the phone (screen + capacitive buttons) are still exposed. I'm just wondering if the heat in the pocket will still activate the buttons somehow.
I have tried the slide2wake (ponury gesture mod) myself, and it drains battery alot, even when the phone is out of the pocket.
