Hello to all

For those with imilka ROM I found out the reason of not booting up (stuck @ GOGO). It seems that you have to DAF with boot partition 8M as it is instructed in bauner's ROM thread.

Bauner, your ROM can have the toggle buttons in the notification area? I tested and it was very good but I would like to customize the notification area.

Other than that I have to say that I saw improvements in the speed, boot time, wakeup lag (not instant but better) and good proximity sensor response when in call.

I don't expreience problems with wifi dhcp.

EDIT: I used the DAF from Bauner's ROM thread. So, maybe other factors may have solved the problem.

EDIT2: I experience freezes some time after start up.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
Did you install the new kernel manual in the dft verion? because the dft version is not released this time.

I use the 8mb boot partition in my rom because my initrd.gz is bigger and to make sure there is alway enough free space for future updates.

In the update package for other rom´s only the zImage (near same size as original kernel from git) is included.

does your device freeze complete or only for a short time?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] HannoSLM:
hi bauner, wanted to test on imilka incredible s 1.1, but i am stuck at gogogo with your kernel ver2.

any tips?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] AlaneCzeQ:
after some test it is quite stable.

still have same screen wake up lag though, thought it was shorter but it is about 1,5-2 sec. battery levels are good and wi fi is working fine.

waiting for future updates, maybe you will resolve wake up lag ;)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
I don´t know the features of Rafpigna´s kernel.

This kernel is an testversion based on stock linux_on_wince_htc git kernel src with the following changes:

Here are some of the changes

rwsem xchgadd

tree preempt rcu

device cgroup

autogroup scheduler

bfq with hierarchical scheduling

1000hz timer

ondemand as default governor with

MMC block bounce enabled

Ext4 driver for ext2/3

Some cherrypicks from ck patches

Revert block: improve queue_should_plug() by looking at IO depths

non-atomic queue_flags

Deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use queue_limits instead

ondemand count iowait time as busy

add blk_run_queue_async

usb storage writecache disabled

revert fasync: split 'fasync_helper()' into separate add/remove functions

sync: disable fsync syscalls

and many more (to see all changes look at my git repo)

Features like oc, uv, bluetooth fixes,..... are not included to make sure that reported bugs/problems are real kernel related and not caused from settings like oc or uv

More features comes in next versions.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
Hi bauner

Yes, my device freezes completely after 10-15 mins with imilka ROM. In your ROM can I have toggle buttons in the notification area?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] brainmaster:
There is a program called Notification Toggle that does that for every ROM.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] white-energy:
You mean like... tomorrow?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mperezm77:
I'm using Imilka HD RAM V1 ROM. Is it possible to do that without loosing all my data?

How?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] AlaneCzeQ:
after using it for one day all I can say is THANKS !

don't know how you did it but when on call my proximity sensor lag has nearly gone !

very very stable, my widgets disappeared once but now it seems ok, wi fi is working, bluetooth is working and battery consumption is amazing compared to skinks stock.

waiting for full release !
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
If you do CWM full backup and then reDAF with the right figures you should be fine. I do it all the time these days.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mperezm77:
Which are the right figures? Or what files do I need to change and how?

Thanks!!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] TonyCubed:
@bauner, or any other dev, do you think you can answer my question before more useless posts bury it to oblivion? :P
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
You download one recovery and change in the flash.cfg as follows:

boot yboot|ro 8M

system ya 130M --> For Imilka's ROM
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Daekin:
130 is not enough...150 was needed for previous release, 160 is needed for latest (I talk about Vivo)

also, boot can be 5M

basically minimum common paritions:

misc = 1, boot = 5, recovery = 5, cache = 4
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
Well with 5M it wouldn't boot. I am talking about Imilka Sense v2
[HD2 Android NAND Development] white-energy:
Use 6...

Using the kernel with rafpgna DHD under CLK and its working just..just...just......just...........juuuuuuuuuussstttt... AWESOME!!!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] brainmaster:
Does it now work on Gingerbread, or it only works on Froyo and we have to wait for the Gingerbread builds?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
My current work is to optimize latency/performance.

The target is to minimize the response time on high cpu load and/or high I/O and to improve the I/O throughput to sdcard.

This reduces the sometimes very long wakeup lag under high cpu load or high i/o.

But this can not solve the general wakup lag which exists on some devices!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
I don´t know if it works with ram builds this time but you can try if you want.

You should not loose any data (but to have an backup is recommended because I can not test it on every existing rom... and this is also an testversion too!)

If you make a backup of your rom in clockwork recovery before you install the kernel update you can quickly restore your rom and data if something goes wrong...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
if you have an terminal emulator installed you could make an logfile...

In terminal emulator simply type the following after reboot if you had an freeze:

cat /proc/last_kmsg > /mnt/sdcard/last_kmsg.log

After this you have the file last_kmsg.log on your sdcard with last dmesg outputs from your last session.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mperezm77:
It worked and I don't get stuck on the GO GO GO screen anymore but in the other hand, I get stuck when loading widgets after introducing the pin number to unlock my sim card, and I need to pull my battery off...

Any idea why?

Thanks again!! I'm willing to test this kernel. It looks very promising!!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] brainmaster:
Hi bauner, you can also use the Multiquote button when replying the questions.

Second - thank you for your work and efforts. Can you please answer my question?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
If you read the thead you will see that some of us have tested it in GB builds. It does work but there are these freezes which hopefully there will be resolved. Until the phone freezes completely however the performance is very good and you can tell the difference.

EDIT: Sorry my ROM is 2.2.1 so who knows....

Bauner, is there any chance that you can improve the wakeup lag by doing your magic?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] AlaneCzeQ:
Signal tends to go from 3G to H when browsing internet.

Noticed that when it is on 3G website doesn't load, but when I have got H than it is very very fast.

Also I had a reboot today and I don't have Market,People etc -> some applications are missing, think I need to reflash.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] pyrorob:
you do know that the "H" stands for HSDPA, which is faster then 3G yeah?

also, the data speed switching has to do with how the radio drivers pick up and interpret the current signal strength, which i not related to the kernel. the current radio drivers don't function 100% properly, so you get low signal where there really isn't and therefore, your data speed drop's when it shouldn't.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] AlaneCzeQ:
Yes mate I know H stands for HSDPA :)

Thanks for clarifying that drivers doesn't work properly, I thought they worked better at some point but maybe I was getting better signal in my workplace.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
with default options the kernel gets build with vpe and neon support.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
Should we look forward for a newer version?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] white-energy:
You mean like tomorrow?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
I think on weekend...

I had to reinstall my pc, because I wanted to delete a directory in phone with adb... But the phone restarted and I did rm -r as root on my pc home foler...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] HannoSLM:
hi bauner,

i keep trying your promising kernel, but without success.

Imilka incredible sense 1.1 - stuck at gogogo (didn't increase cache yet, please you confirm if it is worth trying)

Dungphp desire hd 1.5, gb - after the lockscreen phone reboots

imilka vivo gb sense - stuck at gogogo

sbryan vivo gb sense - it boots and perform quite nicely for about 5-15 min, than it starts lagging and reboots.

please advise, with which of the latest builds you are having success so i can try it also.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
Hi bauner

I am attaching my log after the freeze. The freeze seems to happen when I start doing things.

Let me know if this is the correct file. I exported it after the freeze but before that I restored system and boot through CWM becasue I couldn't run anything.

Thanks
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
Hi friend

Where did you find CLK CWM recovery with 6M boot? Did you compile by yourself?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
sorry this does not help, because I need it with my kernel on next reboot after the freeze
[HD2 Android NAND Development] white-energy:
Well.. i haven't compiled it by myself, i had someone who did it for me =>> arif-ali (big thanks to him) :)

I'm using rafdroid's hd build.. blah.. blah..

I've attached the clk's layout 6mb boot partition..

Details:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] white-energy:
Any news ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
i´m on testing... the freezings seems to be only on fast sdcards.

It would help me much to see the results from the testscript in 1. post with actual testversion on different sdcards/partition sizes
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
Hi

I have moved from Imilka to other ROMs.

I find a consistent problem in WiFi not truning on (e.g. BoyPPC HD ROM).

My sd card is 8gb class 6 for the freezing.

Do you need me to send logs from that or it's something that is known to you?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
Thanks for the layout friend! However I find that the most complete ROM for me is BoyPPC. So I will defer from trying on cLK.

Thanks anyway
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
Hi

Today I tested the kernel with CoreDroid 1.6. Everything seems to be fine except one weird thing. My applications (e.g. Button Savior) are not granted superuser permissions! So when I try to run an application that needs superuser permissions nothing happens. I did Fix Permission through CWM serveral times.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
I think I found the problem...

In my update script the permissions of /system/bin gets changed recursiv.

But the su file needs different permissions.

This is normally not an problem because on most roms su is in /system/xbin and /system/bin/su is a symlink to it.

But in your rom are 2 su binaries...

if you install the attached zip in clockwork and su should work again.

I also post a new version of test2 in 1. post that does not break su in system/bin
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
if you have an terminal emulator installed (or with adb) you could post some logs:

If the freezes only short and you don´t have to reboot:

start wifi soon after a freeze then open terminal and type:

dmesg > /mnt/sdcard/dmesg.txt

cat /proc/meminfo > /mnt/sdcard/meminfo.txt

cat /proc/vmstat > /mnt/sdcard/vmstat.txt

logcat -d > /mnt/sdcard/logcat.txt

Or if you have to reboot after freeze:

start wifi then open terminal and type:

dmesg > /mnt/sdcard/dmesg.txt

logcat -d > /mnt/sdcard/logcat.txt

and send me the 4(or 2) txt files from your sdcard
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
Hello again

I applied the latest kernel and the fix for permission.

I can say only this:

GREAT, AWESOME!!!

This is the real thing. We 're talking about real difference in the responsiveness of the ROM. Wake up lag is minimal and most important EVERYTHING IS WORKING unlike other kernels where you have to compromise for loosing functionalities. Way to go Bauner.

The WiFi issue is not related to freezes.

Let me summarize for you:

Imilka ROM: Freezes, Wifi working

BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA DESIRE HD V15: Wifi not working, no freezes

CMYLXGOs Stock Desire HD: Wifi not working, No Freezes

I didn't manage to have the kernel applied to a cLK build.

I have become a flash addict these days because I wanted a complete ROM with you kernel on.:D

Keep up and let us know what kind of tests you want us to run.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
Bad news

The testkernel development is on hold for some days.

because my loved hd2 is dead...

after a fall of 1m the lcd and touch panel are broken.

But the bigger problem is that I cannot turn it on too..

I hope that I can fix it. Else I have to look for a new HD2...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] skymera:
oh shi O_o I will forever keep mine in its protective pouch

Bad luck man :/
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
bummer. You shouldn't post this image because is an act of terror for HD2 owners :)

Waiting news. Anyway so far the kernal seems to accomplish its goal!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
the board is broken too...

But about the middle of next week i should receive my new one.

The kernel works almost good. to fixing the freezes should not be an bigger problem.

in the testversions i have removed sync and fsync from kernel to speedup the database on ext4 with journal and unmodified libsqlite.so.

this is good for testing, but for final i have to find a better solution..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
Don't mind me for asking but it seems that I 've missed something. I am using ext4. Do I have to do something addtional like putting a file there. You mention something in the first post but I am not sure.

EDIT: Do you plan to release a DHD Rom?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
you only need to install the zip in cwm.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
my new hd2 arrived today. Now I can continue the work on kernel / rom ...

@epapas

my next rom will be gingerbread with sense but im not sure which versions this time...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Mafioso:
How about non-sense CM7 version? :D :o
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
Good news! We 're waiting the new version of your kernel and offcourse you new ROM.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] white-energy:
That's a nice one! :D

Use the Incredible sense version, its stable..
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
should be no problem too...

Unfortunately I have that next problem... random fc´s, reboots and bootloops caused by many bad nand blocks... and I bought it on ebay from private... and already gave the vendor last night a good rating because it looked as good as new...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] epapas:
These are like bad blocks in hard disk? No cure for that?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
you´re right.

a few bad blocks are no problem, because they get marked as bad.

bu my problem was that constantly more blocks failed.

but i could give the phone back, and received the next one today.

I hope this one works without problems that i can continue the work on new kernel/rom
[HD2 Android NAND Development] white-energy:
You mean like... today?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
next day´s...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] white-energy:
You mean like today, tomorrow, after tomorrow and the next days?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Hannes_HD2:
Hi bauner!

Well, how is development going? Can we expect an updated version soon? Still waiting eagerly! :-)

Keep up the good work,

Hannes
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
im currently on code cleaning and merging the io changes into my main kernel tree.

last days i did not have much time to work on it.

a new release which should work on gingerbread comes next time...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Hannes_HD2:
That's good news. Especially if it will both on FroYo and GB, this should be integrated in the kernel mainline after testing!

Thanks for your efforts.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
here some rescent benchmark results with my actual testing kernel on my v5alpha rom

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15923331&postcount=4
[HD2 Android NAND Development] mperezm77:
Very nice!!

Do you plan to release your kernel to be used with other ROMs?

[HD2 Android NAND Development] bauner:
tomorrow comes an clk and magldr cwm snapshot package.

it should work on most froyo rom´s

gingerbread is untested

[Vibrant General] da_dragon2k3:
To bad the modem drivers aren't swappable
[Vibrant General] rakeshchn:
Well apr 26 is not that far. Lets wait and watch. But I feel this is like the froyo release dates and we don't have an froyo OTA yet. Just think of the hundreds of thousands of non techie vibrant users still on 2.1!
[Vibrant General] Dougefresh91:
I thought our Vibrants had been discontinued months ago. At least I'd think so with the amount of new phones Samsung is crapping out.
[Vibrant General] cashyftw:
My mom was one of the ppl on 2.1 poor her, I had to save her lol, and agreed, I'm wondering though, couldn't we just port the cappys 2.3 to our Vibrants?
[Vibrant General] yjqidt:
including vibrant ?
[Vibrant General] Dan_Brutal:
I would think we would need a 2.3 modem for a port. The i9k and captivate modems won't work I don't think.
[Vibrant General] jamesd86:
I read that as an update for the i9000, where was a captivate mentioned?
[Vibrant General] oka1:
Well the GB is already out I found on the Samsung site for the I9000 so, ....hmmm we shall see
[Vibrant General] PaiPiePia:
I want 3.0 and flash 10.2 support.

it's not looking good so far since an article was posted saying that the update was pulled from KIES.

good thing is people here got the source so they really wont care anymore.
[Vibrant General] Emama:
i9000 source is not related to vibrant right?
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
i REALLY do think Samsung's trying to clear it up for the Froyo mistake they did...

Maybe, just maybe the korean CEO has a heart and says Galaxy S line (specifically Vibrant) gets GB :P

[Android Apps and Games] Mylenthes:
Ok the blob seems fine, no problems on my g2 but add some customizability. The plasma though, slows my phone down like crazy almost making it unusable. Find a way to optimize it, or it could be just the g2.
[Android Apps and Games] bompo:
I will try to lower the resolution for the plasma wallpaper. Maybe this will help...
[Android Apps and Games] sarfaraaz:
Downloading now. Let the testing commence :-)

Edit: Plasma causes my phone to slow down crazily. Maybe it isn't optimized for Android 2.3.4? (just a wild guess)

Blob causes slow down as well but still much smoother than Plasma, phone is usable.

Awesome LWP's otherwise mate :-)
[Android Apps and Games] moccor:
After I downloaded and installed this, all the star ratings for all the apps I have, are gone and are just blank starts. I uninstalled it and rebooted the phone, and its still the same problem.

Edit: restarted it again and its fixed. - Droid X
[Android Apps and Games] zedklind:
downloaded and installed on my g2x. runs a litttle slow but it looks amazing! would love to see an optimized versions of the fractal one off his website. that one looks amazing!
[Android Apps and Games] airmaxx23:
I tried these out on my Droid X that's overclocked to 1.25 GHz and they both cause severe lag to the point where it slows the phone down. They look amazing but make my phone unusable. :(

Edit: I should mention that I'm currently using a leaked version of Gingerbread.
[Android Apps and Games] DeathCry:
Using Cross-plasma on my Thunderbolt. So far so good. Looks great. No noticeable lag with any phone functions yet. Will let you know in another day or so how its working.
[Android Apps and Games] timothydonohue:
how does a thread that has only had 10 replies make the front page of the portal?
[Android Apps and Games] jrwingate6:
Both are running good on my G2x. No lag using Launcher Pro.
[Android Apps and Games] nimoy.star:
looks very nice but its to slow on my sgs I9000 :(
[Android Apps and Games] Fife3951:
Blob -> works great.

Cross plasma -> runs smoothly (but not all the time), and lags for about 1/4 second between home-screening/unlocking.

Samsung Captivate running Serendipity 6.4
[Android Apps and Games] gade12:
Blob works better than plasma with very little little laggy.So good 9.5^^

Plasma makes a lot of lag, changing screens, go menu...and i have transparent menu so...even menu of apps laggy. Otherwise plama is more beatiful than blob, very nice effect.

How do I use live wallpapers on a Droid X running the first leaked GB? I don't have any option under wallpapers, for live wallpapers.
[Android Apps and Games] airmaxx23:
I wouldn't even bother, I'm on the latest GB leak with my Droid X and they really slow the phone down to the point where it's very laggy.
[Android Apps and Games] PokeAsheep:
Blob= okay, works fine

Plasma= Absolutly beautiful...but lag caused by it is very noticeable. Still installed but not using.

Epic is as Epic does.
[Android Apps and Games] moccor:
But I use LauncherPro with only 1 window screen and 3widgets. And I don't have a bunch of useless apps running in startup or downloaded. I think it would run differently for me.
[Android Apps and Games] airmaxx23:
Give it a try and report back. I'm using Go Launcher with 3 screens, only a few widgets, and most of the bloatware removed. I've tried using them both with my X overclocked up to 1.4 GHz and they both cause a tremendous amount of lag. Good luck.
[Android Apps and Games] moccor:
I would try it, but I have no idea how to enable live wallpapers. I have this wallpaper installed, but theres no option to select it under wallpapers.
[Android Apps and Games] airmaxx23:
Are you sure you installed it? Once you press menu, then wallpaper you should see live wallpapers, select that and then select the one you installed.
[Android Apps and Games] moccor:
Yeah I figured it out, it was due to freezing the live wallpaper in titanium haha. It's laggy for me too. Ohwell.
[Android Apps and Games] bompo:
I updated the Cross Plasma LWP. It should run much smoother now. :)

It actually works on my Droid X now, it's still causes a little lag but at least it's usable. Thank you.
