I think you NEED the led notif. That's the current implementation of BLN. Though it's not Nedlar's BLN.

hi,

i was just wondering,

is this kernel already undervolted by default?

because i could not access voltages panel in setcpu. (force close)

is it is, can anyone tell me what is the default value of undervolt for each frequency?
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Setcpu isn't recommended for this. Try pimp my cpu or voltage control instead.
[Captivate Android Development] dskim0506:
.

okay, so how much is undervolted by the default?
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Don't think there is any built in, best of my knowledge.
[Captivate Android Development] dskim0506:
.

really? cuz the very first post of this thread says you need to do something to "remove voltage setting" :( hmm

suppose there is no built in voltage settings,, is -100 too much for every frequency below 1000MHz?

what value would you recommend?

I SERIOUSLY don't know why my phone gets frozen every time i turn the screen off.. :(

could it be because of screen off profile...?
[Captivate Android Development] astrocrep:
I believe that is to remove voltage settings of the previously installed kernel... Undervolting is trial and error... I do 75, 75, 100, 100, 100 from 1ghz down... Your milage may vary!
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
I think that means to remove any oc/uv settings you have from the previous kernel before flashing this kernel. As for uv on this kernel, start at-25 and work it up from there. Leave it there for a day before trying a higher setting.

Too much uv can cause freezing and sleep death, as you described.
[Captivate Android Development] dskim0506:
.

"your milage may vary" are you saying that the values for undervolt could vary for every other phone(cappy), even if we were to talk about same rom and kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] b-eock:
Yes tht is correct, the hardware isnt 100% EXACTLY THE SAME FROM PHONE(CAPPY) TO PHONE(CAPPY)

So... which one is doing better on battery?? Stock or VC?? Thanks!

Battery should be the same throughout, give or take a %, vc just means more control of your hardware through voodoo color, I prefer it

[Captivate Android Development] spd2230:
Fix permissions and reboot? If not, then try formatting cache and dalvik?
[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
Were the FC's present before the kernel flash? if so then its a rom issue, if not, you already have been given all the advice i would reccommend in wiping cache/dalvik & running fix permissions through cwm with a reboot or two
[Captivate Android Development] KohjiNagata:
Must have been deus ex machina. I loaded a nandroid back up prior to the install of the kernel and tried again and no FC's. Odd but its working now so I can't complain.

Getting SOD

Using Neo17 with led.notif and getting random SOD (sleep of death) where it display doesn't turn back on. seems like the phone is still on cause i mostly get this when led notif is on and when i unlock they turn off but i press the lock button and they come back on as if put back to sleep... any help? didn't happen before flashing neo17

fyi still having soft key issues using led notif if anyone was wondering.
[Captivate Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
Thanks for your report ChaosCao12 !

I doubt that it's caused by the led-notifications but it indeed could be the cause

pawit p has committed a fix for the touchkey lockup and I'll include it in the next kernel build

hopefully this will "fix" this issue

what kernel did you use before ?
[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
I an in love with this kernel now, been running for about a week and I've never seen my phone perform do well, everything I use my phone for is easier and snappier than ever before, I can't believe how well things run
[Captivate Android Development] Cozmo1:
I couldn't get wifi to work on the latest Neo 17. I finally switched to the Glitch kernel as a process of elimination and it worked without issue.
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
i couldn't get neo17 to run without so much lag so I switched back to neo10 and its smooth as butter and good battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] ri3tn:
I'm loving the latest NEO kernel, but I lost wifi when I flashed it. Tried reflashing, no go. Flashed back to TalonMTD and got wifi working, and then tried flashing back to NEO but nothing.

Any ideas guys ?
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
I noticed some other people (three posts up, for example) that couldn't get wifi to work on neo. maybe coincidence...maybe not.
[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
sounds to me like either the rom you are using has different wifi internals (just changed or something) or you got a bad download from a free server (happens more than you might expect) because NEO 17 is running AMAZINGLY on my phone, ive never been so happy with fluidity, responsiveness, speed, and everything, my cappy is running faster than my buddies iphone 4 in every way possible on this kernel so i know its up to par at least on my personal captivate. the only issues ive encountered (for the first time today after running the kernel for over a week now) is an occasional mobile data dropping repeatedly, which could be the kernel, modem, or my juicedefender settings causing it. im on cm nightly like 92 or something though for reference

what nightly/rom are you using, and have you attempted redownloading from the post a few pages back just in case?
[Captivate Android Development] ChaosCao12:
Thanks for the reply!

If you would like i can flash the nonled notification and see if i get it again.

i was using neo16 with led notif. and didnt have the SOD

Can't wait for the fix and new build!
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
I had sod once in 5 days on 17r7, running Galnet MIUI Chameleon rc 1 and 2

did you uv'd your phone? if so, try to give more voltage to lower frequencies like 100, 200 mhz.

On wifi issue, go settings > system > wifi settings > advanced > regulator domain then try different channels.
[Captivate Android Development] b-eock:
Thanks for trying to help, but if i cant undervolt like i can on Glitch, then im out, cuz Glitch gives me performance and battery life In my experience. Not dogging this kernel, just didnt have a great experience with it....

Sent from my Stock KH3/4 2.3.4 Captivate using the XDA Premium App!
[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
just lower your uv by 25mv, should be *almost* identical in battery life, and its worth a shot, if there are users using it successfully on the same rom as you then i dont know what to say, to each his own i guess :) thats the brilliance of android!
[Captivate Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
well the kernels use different OC/UV implementations so that is understandable

also you can't compare relative OC/UV values (e.g. -200 mV to -200 mV since the base voltage might be different) & Tk meanwhile also did some massive work to improve things - in both directions UV & OC

whereas I mainly focused on stabilizing for OC in the past weeks

does the UV even offer a noticable difference for your workflow ?

[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
I, personally, notice little difference, we are talking milli-increments that we are undervolting though, i only notice any difference whatsoever with -100 mv from 100-1200mhz and -75 for 1300/1400mhz, i actually see 1-3+ hours more battery life depending on my usage, and oc'ing is literally impossible for my personal cappy without at least a -50 or -75mv on 1300+ 1200 is stable without any uv on some kernels but thats it (DISCLAIMER: i hate OC'ing my phone, 1300=too much, i notice 0% real world ui performance gain from 1200-1600mhz (yes benchmarks this and that but i dont care), and on top of that i see a MASSIVE heat increase, which i wont deal with lol. thus, i see stability, battery, and higher oc capability coming out of the uv implementation on my cappy
[Captivate Android Development] ri3tn:
Would you happen to know why wifi just does not turn on for me?

I tried the NEO 17 kernel on the latest MIUI and then on the latest CM7 and on both, wifi is just shot. I really love the performance and battery with the kernel though.. but wifi is definitely a deal breaker.

The Neo 17 R7 Kernel is running fine for me.

I haven't encounter any SOD by using it for days with UV. Hopefully, I won't see it in the future too.
[Captivate Android Development] simple man:
I concur, this is an awesome kernel, I think that kernels and modems act different on each device, and you need to find the combo that works the best for you. I tried several radios, and all the CM7 kernels, all the kernels are good.... not a thing bad about any of them, a person just needs to find the one that works best for them. This one runs best on my device.
[Captivate Android Development] zerkai:
Hey what theme are you using that uses the gingerbread icons in the status bar?
[Captivate Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
Hi Akitohk,

you also get those issues (non-smooth color transitions & other issues related to colors being displayed)

also with the stock-color version fo the Neo kernel ?

soon there again will be another kernel with stock-colors so that hopefully should display colors like on the cm7 stock kernel

[Captivate Android Development] zerkai:
Seems to be fixed.

But I'm still having the rainbow screen bug when unlocking the screen, only happens when Screen On Animation is on. You then would have to press the power button 3 times to get the screen to display correctly. I guess no one else uses this animation?

conservative's scaling is somewhat more noticable but should give better battery runtime (using all frequencies from 100 -> 1000 MHz)

just try them out

I've tweaked conservative but it's still somewhat less smooth than ondemand

[Captivate Android Development] ls377:
It was better on Trident and TheEscapist's kernel. I'll test this build this weekend. I ran into some serious stability issues with CM (no matter what kernel I tried), so I'm back on a Samsung ROM for a bit.

No problem!
[Captivate Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
for those who can't decide what governor to use - basically you have to edit

Alright, I have a quick question. I did not notice this when I first flashed this kernel, but is there a specific update.zip that I need to flash? It could have been changed during the ODIN flash for CM7, but the only one I have ever used was the update.zip that was used by the Captivate OCWM. Just wanted to check before I update everything on my phone. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
If you are talking about flashing clockwork.... No do not flash the update zip
[Captivate Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
nope, it's allright

sorry if I keep throwing in "update.zip" from time to time

that only would apply to a whole system-update (from nightly)

just apply e.g. CM7_CAPTIVATE_platypus-kernel_20110413_19_antlion_conservative.zip

exactly, it's only needed pretty much at the beginning when e.g. using stock samsung ROM and its recovery 2e (?) doesn't support applying newer stuff properly
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
Alright, thanks. I couldn't get auto-rotation to work, so I flashed back to the latest Kang version, but all the features on this kernel (esp battery) are very tempting. Hopefully I can get it to work this time.

Btw, is it ever ok to flash a CM nightly and the kernel at the same time? Flash the nightly and then flash the kernel is what I mean. Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
sure - that will work,

this time I also posted a troubleshooting section

and some steps required to get it working correctly

hopefully that'll make auto-rotation run for you :)
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
Actually auto-rotation worked right off the bat, as does USB Tethering (especially for the sd card) but no signal until I rebooted. Regardless I now have my new Disturbed album and some vids on my phone for my jaunt to the gym. Let's just hope I can find a player to play HD videos.

[Captivate Android Development] Enhanced:
I apologize if it has been covered in this thread... but what are the advantages of this implementation of LED notification over BLN?

I'm assuming better power management as this is baked directly into CM7 instead of utilizing a 3rd party app?

Thanks :)
[Captivate Android Development] ls377:
It does seem to take awhile on boot. I just did a fresh install of everything and it seems better.

Probably better power management. Also it's more reliable to me, BLN on Le kernel only worked went it felt like it :p

Just flashed this kernel yesterday, and so far so good, except for one bug I found.

When I listen to music or use any sort of media app, and have music playing, there's some sort of bug when I try to turn up the volume using hard buttons while the screen is off. When the screen is on, it's no problem, but while it's off, the sound stutters, lags a bit, and then the screen either comes back to life, or I would have to reboot the phone by pulling the battery.

[Captivate Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
ok, thanks !

try following:

make sure you lock & unlock the phone 1-2 times during hte first 1-2 minutes

after that you'll get guaranteed reception and most of the lags should go away

also - when using ADW Launcher - give it some time to load stuff

then scroll home screen left and right 1-2 times (completely to the right - middle - completely left | then again)

open up the app list and scroll up & down 1-2 times

after that everything should work more smoothly

make sure you lock and unlock the screen - this should "fix" the lags

also:

Hi Jstar1033,

glad you like it !

thanks for using :)

you still know in what circumstance ?

thanks for using ! :)

that might be a bug of the LED notification implementation :(

afaik it's a known bug (known to bilboa1) - but it's not appearing very often

I just got it yesterday

any specifics to the WIFI network ? (encryption, invisible, etc. etc.)

thanks !

yes:

settings -> CyanogenMod settings -> sound -> Quiet hours

set those from 00:00 to 00:00

and tick [x] Dim LED

that should (hopefully) do it

you gotta change it in /system/etc/init.d/90screenstate_scaling

e.g. if you have conservative edition running and want permanently performance (WARNING: battery drain - and the phone might get warm pretty fast !)

from:

AWAKE_GOVERNOR="conservative"
SLEEP_GOVERNOR="powersave"

to

AWAKE_GOVERNOR="performance"
SLEEP_GOVERNOR="performance"

extract 90screenstate_scaling from the zip-file

change those 2 occurences and replace it in the zip-file

after that re-apply the kernel package

see 1 comment above where I explain changing from conservative, powersave to performance, performance

do the same but in your case to conservative, conservative

this will negatively affect battery life

but if there's no other way - this would be the fix

smartass isn't working properly with the SGS and needs significant tweaking

just stay with ondemand

thanks !
