lol what the hell....my phone was fully moddable before ec05 with a few hiccups here and there that would fix with another flash.....im really lost
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Try going back to EB13 and seeing if you can flash this.
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
I was just going to say that :-) also, why are you opposed to flashing a custom rom? Just curious
[Epic 4G Android Development] carnivalrejectq:
Not opposed to it. They havent been working for me either. Tried the new ACS and i got one of those force close reboot into the flashing android logo 5 second later things. Also on eb13 i seeemed to be losing wifi capabilities after a couple of days with every rom i tried except for bonsai i think it was. This is aggravating nad time consuming. Gotta go to work in the morning , lol. Guess ill stick with dk18 for tonight and tomorrow.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
At that point, all you've needed to do was wipe everything and reflash the rom an it would've worked.
[Epic 4G Android Development] feefeeboomboom:
Ty for the bomb work and awesome kernel source. The higher voltage on 1.4 let's me use it finally.

Your source and Rods inidramfs make for a "happy time".
[Epic 4G Android Development] spitefulrain:
I flashed v1.1 and my about phone still says 1.0. Is this just an oversight? Or did i get a bad downlaod?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Does the voodoo app say 7 at the bottom? If so, it's the correct one :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Wow, I think I may have gotten a bad download as well. Its not taking...any suggestions??
[Epic 4G Android Development] redspeed:
From what I understand, having a higher framerate cap just makes your system work harder and drain the battery faster, and its really just for benchmarking purposes. Is there a way to cap the framerate at say 30fps for those that want to conserve the battery?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
What does it say for the voodoo app?

Sent from a truly Epic phone on the XDA Premium app ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] carnivalrejectq:
You know what, I lied. Couldnt go to sleep with a failure lol. After all of this it appears I have gotten Bonsai too work....not after a fail the first time....but seems to be ok NOW. God damn dunno why the phones being so stubborn. Really wanted to try this kernel or the new Syndacite rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Flash sfb right over bonsai :) no wipe

Sent from a truly Epic phone on the XDA Premium app ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Voodoo 6. Its hanging at Samsung screen. Bad download?
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
Most likely. If it says driver version 7 then it is v1.1 I completely forgot to change the build number so this is an easy way to tell. My bad :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
Interesting suggestion, it wouldn't really be the fps lowering that would save battery, it would be in the decrease in power that the screen is needing constantly. But I like your thinking, I'll look into it!
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Ok thanks. I will download it again. Thanks for the heads up on where to look to confirm. Tom, do I need to wipe anything or just flash over the top? Sorry if I missed it
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Got it! I noticed when I ran "Autodetect" it pre-selected "performance". Is that the recommended setting or is it user preference?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BrianFX:
Was able to run F-Zero (all-time fav game) on SNESoid at 0 frameskip for the first time ever with VisionKernel 1.0 @ 1.4ghz. I updated to VK 1.1 and SNESoid took a performance hit. So I reverted back to VK 1.0, but the performance hit is oddly still there.

Wonder if it's just related to the framerate cap lowering, but shouldn't that have been reverted when I downgraded back to the 1.0 kernel?
[Epic 4G Android Development] drizek:
A lower framerate cap as well as vsync does cut the processing power requirements.

I heard some people having their computers overheat from playing starcraft 2, and they do a quick fix by just enabling vsync
[Epic 4G Android Development] compuw22c:
SWEET, thank you. Can't wait to check it out. Also gonna try the new kernel ASAP. Keep up the good work!
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
It is user preference, it should automatically boot with ondemand. Not sure why autodetect would set it on performance.
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
Very strange. I doubt it's the framerate cap lowering but it could be, what frequency/governor were you using?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
No need to apologize. I just wanted to make sure. Thanks for all of the hard work. Putting it through the paces now. I did notice the battery is charging at about 5 degrees hotter. (Around 98 degrees) Not sure if it matters or not.
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
Ya if you'll notice i edited my post, it really does boot with ondemand.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I rebooted and ran autodetect again and saw that on my end too. I APOLOGISE! LOL
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
Oh haha it's all good, I don't know what just happened there lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] compuw22c:
Ok, just tried the new kernel (v1.1). Seems that 1.3 is more stable and usable for me, however 1.4 is still crashing almost immediately. Thanks for the hard work! I'll keep watchin' to see where this goes :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
It appears the reboot got everything in line. Battery temp back to same level as 1.0. Thanks again for such a fast update
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Can the ROM builders get the "Build" position back for ROM names,and have the kernel name show in "kernel version" again?
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
I completely agree, it will most likely be that way for the next ROM release and therefore the kernel version will have its own spot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] epic4GEE:
Thanks Thomas!!

I like the frame cap at 56fps, as it feels much more consistent and stable, time will tell tho.

I was sad the other day when I had to flash back to twilight kernel, as I feel this is the best my phone has ever run with any kernel. But out of nowhere my phone started freezing at 200-1Ghz ondemand and conservative. After three battery pulls in an hour and strangely no data corruption, I felt it was time to go back to twilight. Im back on vision and loving it all over again!! I am also running honeycomb fusion1.1 so I can't really blame or report any issues as I'm using something I've been warned to not use with srf 1.1.0.
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
I definitely think the framerate cap fix was causing more problems than it was worth, glad I removed it. Themes shouldn't ever really make a system unstable unless its a poorly done theme, so don't hesitate to include that if your having a problem and I ask what your setup is.

Also, thank you tanimn for making an awesome kernel for fallback purposes in case of failure lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] epic4GEE:
Yeah I agree and didn't mean to make it sound like the twilight kernel was no good, it's a great kernel and runs really well. My phone just ran better with vision. No disrespect to tanimn:D or twilight. I'm glad (and relieved;))we have two flavors of acs kernel goodness.
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
Exactly, what ever tickles your fancy lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] RushAOZ:
How do I get to the color calibration portion of voodoo? And also what should the scaling in set cpu be? Running silki smooth @1.4ghz with the scaling set to ondemand. Should I be on a different scale?
[Epic 4G Android Development] redspeed:
I heard about the Starcraft bug too - it was actually from pausing the game and going to the menu screen. There was no framerate limiter on that screen and for some reason your GPU would go ballistic rendering what was there
[Epic 4G Android Development] RushAOZ:
Enabling vsync in pc games actually stresses the card more than leaving it off. Has to slow itself down to the displays refresh rate. If you have a monster card by all means and its defenitely preffered for The smooth frame transition but having a high fps creates tearing and weird **** on your display. Mainly clipping, but if your like me and your laptop gpu barely pushes half life 2 at full dx8 quality at 40fps... turning vsync on drops my to the 15-25 range. Unless playing some extremely old game leave it off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] relz:
Are there any plans to add a 1.2Ghz step to this? I love the voodoo color mod and feel like this is the smoothest kernal I've used on the Epic, but my phone locks up at 1.3Ghz when I'm playing games even though it handles benchmarks at that frequency just fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
I use ondemand too :) And voodoo color is built in.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
I just hope this 1.1 versions better bc 1.0 version bc oc at 1.4 seemed slower than the twilight at 1.3 so hopefully that was fixed
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
Of course, you will have a 1.2ghz step pretty soon, just working out some kinks to make some pretty awesome stuff happen.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
i like how i keep getting ignored but its cool we will see if this 1.4 is faster than twilights 1.3 as in touch feel so on no benches
[Epic 4G Android Development] Tirregius:
Exactly the opposite is true. Rendering uncapped causes the card to work at capacity regardless of the complexity of the rendering process, up to the pixel pushing cap of the RAMDAC(s). Capping the frame rate (as in vsync) in an application that taxes the card under capacity, will run the card much cooler and draw less power. If it takes .01 sec to render the scene and you are capped at 50fps (.02 sec/frame) the card will essentially idle 1/2 the time.

Why would "slowing down" a microprocessor cause MORE strain? Just had to jump in here because this is blatant mis-information. People, cap your renderer if you want to care for you vid card!!!!! LOL!!!

I should add, for your education, the reason you experience a slow down when running vsync on is due to the wait states that are inserted in order to sync properly with the fixed refresh rate of your monitor, while the renderer finishes frames at variable intervals. This can be mostly eliminated my rendering several frames ahead, but this intruduces input lag, which can be problematic for gamers. The slow down in other words has nothing at all to do with the card working harder. It is working less - just waiting around for the display to call for it!
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Nobody is ignoring you. How about asking the question again, as opposed to posting irrelevant comments.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
sorry for asking bro ill just figure out thanks tho
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
i can run 1.4.

get 19.3 on linpack. any other heavy benchmark freezes my fone

but doing light things i can really tell the difference between 1.3/1.4

maybe 1.35 will be in the works! =]
[Epic 4G Android Development] Tirregius:
Yeah, I dont think that linpack is designed to test Hummingbird Architechture and does not stress the CPU much
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup, benchmarks don't favor the epic much.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Tirregius:
In fact, in my unprofessional (but usually correct ;-) ) opinion, we should see 70-110 MFloPs from Hummingbird with a test compiled with our chip in mind.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Hummingbird is faster, especially GPU-wise, than the snapdragon. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] shoehorn:
I was using Syndicate Rom 1.1 and it was stable at 1.3ghz. I started using 1.1 version of this kernel and I could not run a stable 1.4ghz, which I'm not surprised since not all phones will be able to do it. However, I have noticed that even at 1.3ghz with this kernel it's very unstable for me at least. Just providing feedback, I haven't reverted to the other kernel just yet.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yeah, I believe that's due to the voltage table. Our new update will fix that, in a fantastic way ;) :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] shoehorn:
Thanks for the quick reply. After another crash I removed the battery and now getting non-stop force closing on apps along with my launcher. Should I just flash the older kernel or wipe and flash syndicate 1.1?

\
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Flash twilight I'd say and see.
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
You probably need to wipe and flash. Battery pulls in the middle of something can be a no-no.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Tirregius:
GPU-wise they are in different classes! There are very few apps if any that really show off the 540. Funny how the tegra2 is getting all these exclusive apps and the 540 is within arms reach of it performance wise. Oh well.

Thanks again for everything. Battery life and performance still insane. 1%/hr. During the work day.
[Epic 4G Android Development] carnivalrejectq:
SFB?

Im actually liking this bonsai rom 4.0 . Its pretty smooth. No need to screw it up until it starts screwing its self up. Would like the vodoo sound though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Syndicate Frozen Beast ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] relz:
Awesome, thanks a lot! I'm looking forward to see what you have in store.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Trust me, it's worth the wait ;) :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
Im back running again. Thank god.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Glad you got it :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
newer than the 1.1 so a 1.2 ??
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup it will be ;) :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
good **** sorrie about earlier got a bunch of **** going on and i didnt mean to take it out on yalls so sorrie
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
V1.1
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Not a problem :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
im looking at this genocide kernel what do u think about compared to twilights and vision and this new Voltage Control vs setcpu
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
We are including the voltage control in the next version ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
o ok cool i cant wait till they make a honeycomb theme for their rom. So this Voltage Control it over clocks too? so is it gonna be better than setcpu
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
Pretty much :-)

Still in the works folks but if you want to see how it performs and some instructions, go take a look at the Genocide Kernel by Rodderik, it has recently been updated and it's awesome!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
thats what im looking at now its just im lost on why he wants u to use voltage control and not setcpu. i mean setcpu is like the best right? so why goto something different:confused:
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
On 1.4 performance in quadrant I got 2012.....I think it may be trying to tell me something.....oh and its stable I think I am a proud owner of a frankenepic....

Pyro
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Great work man :) Nice kernel.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pjames:
will this kernel work on dk28?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
May be wrong, but there may be a few compatibility issues.
[Epic 4G Android Development] squshy 7:
I know this is a dumb question, but I'm having a brain fart. Will this work with eb13?

....its a bad idea to browse xda under the influence of anything. Trust me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] brickwall99:
Wicked fast! Nice job!

Smartbench 2011: 1199/2886

Linpack: 19.316

Quadrant: 2032

Stable so far, time will tell if it really is.

This phone has taken everything I can throw at it. Usually I get bad overclockers when it comes to processors lol I'm willing to try a 1.5Ghz, shoot it on over! haha

Note: Does anyone know of some apps we can stress our phones to test for stability?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yes it will :D

Just use set CPU, uncheck set on boot, and set both sliders to 1400.... that's a sure way to test stability at a frequency ;) :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] stir fry a lot:
Good lord, this thread is only three pages long and these questions have been answered lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] >MR.T:
1.4 AND COLOR, thank you much!

:D
[Epic 4G Android Development] stir fry a lot:
Great ****in work Thomas!!!!!!!! (pardon the profanity but I'm truly impressed)
[Epic 4G Android Development] jjjjayd13:
Thanks much!
[Epic 4G Android Development] drizek:
Is 1.375v the maximum voltage you can do, or is it just the maximum that is safe?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tizocalamilla:
how do i install this kernel?...im new to this epic and nothing is like my old hd2
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rodderik:
1.31V is the recommended max according to samsung

Nice job on the kernel thomasskull666! i'm gonna check it out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] squshy 7:
Same way youd flash a ROM, through clockwork mod. Go to one of the top stickies and look at the wiki. There's a couple of ROM flashing guides

Edit: just realized I sounded like a **** and sorry that's not a detailed answer, but since you're new its better that you read the info yourself, that way you'll retain the information. No disrespect...just lending a helping hand ;)

....its a bad idea to browse xda under the influence of anything. Trust me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] maldito.boss:
Will this work with midnight v5 rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tizocalamilla:
lol i didnt even take it that way bro:cool:...thx for the help though i wasnt sure if i was supposed to go thru odin or cwm...im getting the hang of this phone finally. i miss my hd2:( i knew it better then i knew my self but this epic is worth the trade lol :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] decalex:
Thanks thomas - this looks awesome and can't wait to try it.

For reference.. (I know it's prob not recommended), I flashed over Bonsai 4.0.0 (which I had running the 1.1 twilight kernel), and got boot loopage. I'm gonna try it on the new ACS release later on.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Just flash from recovery like a rom, wipe dalvik ;) :D

Should, yes :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] tbob18:
Awesome. Feels really smooth on the new Syndicate 1.1.0.

I get 2352 in Quadrant, and 19.7 in Linpack.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Because you can't control voltage from setCPU ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
o yeah also i forgot to tell u ur base build is still showing up as 1.0 and when i flashed i wipe cache and dalvik and when i loaded back up all my widgets were gone had to load them back up and my launcher pro plus also had to re-set that up too so im think was i just supposed to wipe dalvik or i did it correct
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
o duh ok nice one thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
so did i flash that kernel right wipe cache and dalvik
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yeah, you did it correctly, the version just isn't correctly reading :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
the only thing that bothered me was why would it give the widgets that problem load error and mess with my launchpro and reset it
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Possibly some funky data issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
o ok also when u flash kernels do u have to uninstall and instal setcpu just trying to figure out why it happend
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Nope, just flashing always works with me
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
so ever time u flash a kernel u wipe cache partition and dalvik cache....bc i was putting that twilight back on and it did it again im thinking of a fresh instal but i really dont wanna set everything back up and delete stuff again
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
Voltage control I am really liking better. 1.4 now runs very stable and fast for me over setcpu
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
I never wipe anything.

Yeah, it's nice :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
what do u have urs set too and u do have it set to reboot and how long did it take u to find those settings
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
what! r u telling me u just flash the kernels no wipe??? Then why did u tell me that i installed correctly wipe cache partition and dalvik cache??
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
im so lost
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Flashing the dalvik works on kernel usually. But since you;re having issues, just flash, no wipe ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
I agree, definitely a great app.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
i ended up starting over but i just hope for all this oc i didnt mess up my sd

Edit: i bet wipe cache is what messed up widgets and launcherpro
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup, I'd say so ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] juice.ki11z:
this kernel still doesnt work for me on stock sprint rom!!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
glad i re-read this page! almost missed your msg

scheduler

cfq

limit clock

1400

under states tab

all clocks checked

apply for now, ran awesome then set on boot

max linpack is 19.725 And to me linpack is the only benchmark to show hard cpu performance.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
ok thanks bro ima have to try out so i guess its not just for the genocide kernel is it lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
wow i just seen a post about the thunderbolt oc at 1.76 we need speeds like that hmm
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
trust me higher clocks just hurt performance. I overclocked my friends g2 to

1.59mhz and it was stable for 12hrs then started freezing.

I lowered the clock to 1.2 and it was faster, much stable than the higher.

our cpus are much different than the dragons.

our phone at 1.2 is faster than there's at 1.2. now we have 1.4
[Epic 4G Android Development] dcorn619:
Hello I'm having an issue with sound, fo some reason the audio fo music and rintones is being played only in the earpiece...could voodoo be at fault?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
Dude I was so lost for a second bc I went to the genocide thread and I seen u uploaded in there but I was like wtf where's my post at I thought they deleted or something I'm feeling like a blonde tonight
[Epic 4G Android Development] churro7:
1.1 vision kernel crashed my phone even in srf 1.02
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
haahhh yeah that'll throw anyone for a loop!

i was gonna edit the quote out but i saw you post in both so I kept it lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] mjben:
Hi,

I've been having troubles to no end with SFR1.1.0 with twilight or vision. I'm not doing too bad ATM, only get a random fc or reboot or freeze once in a while. But I'll keep reading and keep trying.

**Right now I want to know-

Why does Voltage Control tell me that I'm using an unsupported Kernal, when I see there is a conversation happening here that seem to indicate that VC works with this kernal?**

Other note:

I also have the version display problem (shows as 1.0, not 1.1).
[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
Well who is going to OVERCLOCK their poor phone with no fan to 1.6GHz and think it'll be fine plus we dont OClock and keep it their for that amount of time. LOL
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
As far as freezing or reboots - are you at 1.4? On the version display, it's just cosmetic, and will be in everyone's 1.1, there's no need to confirm it and it's harmless. On Voltage Control, it is not compatible yet and anybody who has said it is was wrong.
