Pfff... Had to make 10+ Semi useless replies to be able to post here.

But finaly I can say ...THANKS SpeedMod..!!!

Been using your kernel since January (Froyo 2.2 ->2.2.1 and now GB 2.3.3 - all stock)

Just love the stability and speed.

And I'm looking forward to see where you'll take the Gingerbread kernel...

Am using T22 with 2.3.3 (since sat.) and sofar no probs what so ever.

Batt. life = 29hours (heavy usage).

Keep up the great work.

Just realized that I am also a long time hardcore kernel addict. I made a donation as a token of my appreciation. 5HF22658WX417124F. Grab a brewsky on me brother!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ZaKaTRoN:
Thanks Hardcore, but I'm having and issue, after rooted from the CWM, i don't have free space on /system/framework , so, i can't get gtalk 1.3, cook a circle battery, etc...

Do I have other way to root using your great kernel?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] theduckking:
converting the file system of... well /system^^ gives you a bit more free space (you can convert rfs(default) -> ext4 and back to rfs and you will have some more space.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Higadeb:
Thanks for the great Kernel Hardcore! I was a big fan back on Froyo and have just installed my first GB kernel of yours.

One Q though, how can I get it to work with Rom Manager Premium? When I try to boot into recovery via Rom Manager I get the error:

failed to verify whole file signature E:

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] theduckking:
That's not possible... and never was

(correct me if I'm wrong)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Higadeb:
I don't know it may or may not be. I've just come from using MIUI which is CM7 based and so have used ROM manager for every flash I've done in the last few months, if it's a no go it's not a problem, just wondering :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LupusInvictus:
Weird thing. My phone suddenly went black and started from the boot animation.

So not a full reboot.

It has happend 3 times now in the last hour.

Not sure if it's the kernel or app related. The only app I installed was K-9Mail.

Removed the app so will see if that solves it.

But wanted to let you know.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] theduckking:
Not possible due to kernel not phone^^ other kernels do support rom manager:D

As far as I remember hardcore wrote something on the matter in his froyo kernel thread.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] razze76:
Hi!

Just flashed -T22 and kswapd0 is back to eating my battery. I tried Galaxian V5 over the weekend and did not see this process in the list of battery using processes, but with just a couple of hours on T22 this process is back as the one using the most battery. Can you please take a look at this for coming versions as this is something that other kernel makers clearly can fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] H_BM:
Low Quadrant score xxjvq

anybody experience low score using xxjvq? Mine got around 960 with xxjvq and T15-22.

Previously with xxjvp and T15-8b score around 2400.

Thanks for the info
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] elhennig:
No, i get around 1800 in the first and over 2000 in the second run

Is there any process running in the background using CPU or causing heavy I/O? Like media scanner or sth. else?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] H_BM:
no other process running. Reboot and do the benchmark still the same. After flash of stock rom and speedmod, I got around 2000, but after one day and do the benchmark it drops.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] HM.Carbide:
It is not quite easy to look at, when you give no hint, what you have installed.

But for a blind search, i would try, to install galaxian again, and look at the processes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LordVetinari:
That's about par for the course with Quadrant. I can get a difference of 1000 points 5 minutes apart or when my system is running smooth, Quadrant says I'm scoring under 1000 and when it's lagging I'm scoring > 2000.

So I uninstalled it.

YMMV.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] razze76:
Sorry for lack of information previously. This is on a stock JVQ downloaded from Samfirmware, the only modifications are kernel changes. I dohave K9-mail installed and I found a thread suggesting that this app caused the swapping...

Galaxian has implemented a tweak called "VM Swappiness; reduces swap tendency" which I believe has something to do with this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bangdoo:
Where can i find Galaxian

I dont find it in the market
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] demonstone:
Here mate... it is a kernel, not an app... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1137595
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hardcore:
Actually that is one of the tweaks from my original "startup script tweaks" recommendations. I didn't implement that one in the GB kernel because it shouldn't have any effect since we are not using swap space.

But no harm implementing it I guess. I'll try it out and put it into K15H-T23.

Great reply! I'm 100% with you!

Nothing that I can contribute. I just want to express my support to you and agree that this GPL is blown out of proportion when you are not even given time to respond...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hardcore:
Thanks for the info. Same here. On K15A-T11 and K15A, no reboots. So looks like the reboots were caused by the versions with extra RAM (messing with the reserved memory settings). I guess I'd better leave them alone for now.

Right now the partitions of my phone are all in ext4 format. Should I convert back to rfs before flashing your kernel or I'm ready to go?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] D@niel0s:
"This kernel has NO LAGFIX support yet. Please UNDO LAGFIXES before flashing this kernel."
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kewjoe:
Hardcore clearly states in the first post to disable lag fixes before installing.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
As all gb kernels are basically in beta or alpha phases, I would say you should revert to rfs before flashing anything at all.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chimerical26:
Extra RAM wouldn't really be a biggy anyway. Be nice to get a feel for gingerbread RAM handling without any extras for a while. A bit of CWM wouldn't go astray though. Here's holding out for that :)

Other than GPL or whatever rules or laws.. I remember there is still something like..forum..rule?

20 pages and I only saw <20 posts discussing about Kernel Development.

Or should I say, wrong section? Should all these be in General Discussion?

Personally I think things like:

1. Discussions + suggestions. Stay on topic+Keep the thread clean?

2. Users' feedbacks, test results/observations, bug reports.

3. Donations.

4. Reminder/Warning of any laws like GPL License to keep the project going.

are useful for the development.

hardcore is like a daddy and we're all his children. What happened is hardcore did(did he?) something wrong and the law enforcement came to our home and cuffed his hands when he's sleeping. Yes we all saw that.

Sorry for off topic :( Call me a troll.

It's sad to see my daddy caught without given a chance to explain in his sleep.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hardcore:
New release coming soon.

In the current K15A release, I couldn't compile a working kernel with the latest codesourcery 2010.09 toolchain (SpeedMod Froyo is built using this toolchain).

But after some thinking and hacks, I've managed to do it. K15B will be released soon which is basically K15A but built using the latest codesourcery 2010.09 toolchain.

The technique which I use to build it using this toolchain will be included in the readme inside the kernel source package. It is a bit more tricky to build, but it is worth it for the increased efficiency of the newer toolchain.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zelendel:
Just stopped in to see how things were going and what do i find? I will ask this only once "ANY FURTHER TALKS ABOUT SOURCE WILL BE DONE IN PM! The source has been posted.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] theduckking:
A thing that is bothering me since I first saw the Galaxian kernel: what's up with that 1second polling of the light sensor. I'm no expert but but the idea certainly feels like battery draining overkill.

or... coming to think about it. it's probably doesn't need to much cpu time... I don't know the architecture well enough. have you tested it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] razze76:
Hi!

Thanks for your quick response! I already flashed T23 and will follow up the kswapd usage.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] razze76:
First impressions: I am still seeing some kswapd activity, but whereas the activity was frequent and up to almost 10% of the CPU usage I am now seeingb under 1% of usage - so clearly improvement.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zhuk7:
hardcore, will you add a BLN support?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] elhennig:
zhuk7, did you read this thread completely?

I saw kswapd0 using much more CPU than with T22, so for now I reverted back. Still this was only a short test, I'll try to run T23 over nicht and see if the battery drains or not...

I am still not convinced that this is really a kernel issue or more related to the source used for the different kernels. Speedmod is based on JVP, isn't it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zhuk7:
Too many posts, couldn`t find an answer)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] EseLoKo:

Thanks hardcore.

This question was made often and hardcore didn´t say anything about BLN. XD
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Parkuu:
I'm using T22 and i don't see any battery drain on my end. It's fast and smooth compared to other kernels.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LupusInvictus:
I'm using Launcher pro. Never had this problem before.

I did install an icon pack for it yesterday (M22-3D icons)

So that could be a reason too.

Uninstalled K-9Mail and went back to stock Icons.

Sofar no more weird reboots...

Guess I'll try K-9mail without the Icon pack to see if that's causing the problem.

If not it's the Iconpack (or the kernel but I don't think so).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] the4finger:
t23 is great hardcore. seams to be alittle snappier than the already fast t22!

Also, if i see one more BLN post i'm gunna start breaking faces....

In the first post it is clearly stated by hc:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Straputsky:
Might someone please so kind to explain in a non-technical way, what these changes do? I'm not worried about anything, just interested where all the additional speed comes from... :) Thanks!

Yes, but he never said something specifically about BLN. And this is for the most of people ask about :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tyxerakias:
Are we going to keep getting one or two new kernels every day? Just curious.. :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] razze76:
A less positive comment a few hours later - kswapd0 is still the single most CPU consuming process according to SystemPanel monitoring, but the usage is clearly less than before. During the last 2 hours kswapd0 has accounted for 3,2% of the battery consumption where as the rest are far less, 0.x %. Seen from the battery status view the Android System has consumed nearly as much battery as 10 minutes of talking in little less than 3 hours.

Is there any more info I can provide to help eliminate this battery consuming process?

Otherwise the T23 feels very snappy and fast.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lpy:
Hardcore,

the reason behind heavy kswapd0 cpu usage is

-#define SEC_ADJUST_LMK

not sure why you did that one..possibly seemed like a good idea at the time. Try it for T24.

Also, I find swappiness at 50 provides a good balance between cache and apps in memory.

I've never setup a donation link, so I guess you can just Thank me for future K15H-T24 much improved Speedmod :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DocMarc73:
Dont know what you guys are measuring all the time with that bloody kswap process.

I dont have any draining problems here. Battery lasts two days on moderate usage. So its average and normal. Could it be that system panel itself causes the mentioned process to be active?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yc1437:
Comment on T23: Quick pic photo flipping no longer lag
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hardcore:
That's intentional - this makes the lowmemorykiller behave as the AOSP one.

Also, this kswapd thing is sortof chasing a ghost - of course kswapd has to run, but it's not the cause of any battery drain. Those are probably ROM related.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] spambayes:
I've just had this happen when I tried to turn on Wifi while in Flight Mode. It also happened when I was on one of the previous Txx kernels (can't remember which one). Not a reproducible situation and not sure whether it's anything to do with the kernel either. Just a note to Hardcore.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DocMarc73:
Same here. Not really reproducible and not very often (maybe 3 within 1 week). Cant even tell on which kernel version.

I think in all cases it was some sort of hardware straining situations like running navigon and quickly changing charger connects/disconnects by starting the car, quickly closing multiple apps while having multiple downloads and changing 3g conditions or similar conditions when it appeared.

Stock odexed jvq, no oc or uv.

Edit: wiped dalvik cache now. Gonna see if it helps ...

i only got one small question...

can you explain the recovery menu entry for "convert SYSTEM filesystem"?

regards
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] theduckking:
If you activate it the phone will ask you what fs you want to convert to on the next reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mathijs727:
So it's a sort of extended lagfix.

I have used the "convert filesystem to ext4" option.

If I use ext4 on the system partition too, will it be faster and stable?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] reapsor:
and it converts only the system partition?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] theduckking:
It only converts /system

For me it feels faster, you'll have to try yourself. I never heard of stability issues
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mathijs727:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] -freedroid-:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] elhennig:
Because the BLN driver has to be ported to the newer kernel version. And as there are still some problems with the kernel that need to be fixed first, BLN support is still not implemented (is that correct HC?).

Even if some people believe that BLN's the most important function in the kernel, I say it is defintely not as long as stability and low power consumption and other major functionality is concerned.

will this kernel wipe my phone or really just change the rfs to ext4 etc.?
