lagfix and voodoo are other terms that basically mean the ext4 conversion of the phones file system. I personally think lagfix is a misnomer, but thats just me. VooDoo is kind of a brand name from Supercurio (think Kleenex and tissue)

It might be a misbehaving app that is causing this. Have you tried to root cause which app does this?

Do you use any tweaks/OC/UV? (I know I asked this before, but just to make sure).
[Captivate Android Development] reinbeau:
No, now that Christmas is passed I'll have to figure it out. Last time it was the BeWeather widget (too bad, it's a nice widget). I'm thinking maybe this time it's the live wallpaper I was testing out. I've removed it, we'll see what happens now. I do not tweak anything OC/UV, I just don't have the time to fiddle like that. Thank you for your help! :)

Does this kernel still have the charge bug? By that I mean it hits full charge and then discharges.
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
The charge bug is a "feature" for Gingerbread phones. It's not fixed in any of the kernels so far.
[Captivate Android Development] upNsmokeAllDay:
It's a horrible feature if that's the case.
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
The problem with the charging bug can be almost completely eliminated if you try to trace what's draining your battery while you're asleep. Check BetterBatteryStats and see what's waking up your phone and draining your battery.

I've been constantly waking up with 93-98% of my battery without problems as I try to eliminate apps that wake the phone up with no reason.

Yeah, it's a horrible feature that tries to prolong your lifespan of your battery ;)

What is this Hong Kong lagfix? It just clears 12mb from nand and some magic happens?

Here's the link

Any other mods/lagfixes that can help in performance/battery life gain? I'm not asking about things that might possibly do the same thing as changing partition which voodoo does alright.. im trying to keep that as well and apply other mods/lagfixes on top?
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
It's a pit repartition method by disabling modem partition.
[Captivate Android Development] AceofSpades90:
Ok i got that part. So decreasing the size would bring any performance gain? is disabling modem partition really necessary or we were wasting resources here? i mean 12mb gain sounds like hell of a free space that can be used for other things instead?
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
Not necessary as 12MB is not that much actually.
[Captivate Android Development] AceofSpades90:
Thanks, that clear things.

Still no ics version of talon? Bern away
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
No ICS yet, will probably wait a little bit until its close to a stable/final release..., currently swamped and cannot take on an early alpha/beta build yet..,currently working on

TalonDEV kernel for I897 and I9000 (Gingerbread)

TalonACE kernel for Inspire and DHD (Gingerbread)

TalonROM for Inspire and DHD (Gingerbread)

TalonICS (full rom/kernel) for Inspire/DHD (ICS)

TalonTAB (full rom/kernel) for Galaxy Tab 10.1 (ICS)

all source builds.. So kinda got my plate full ATM, but once SGS ICS gets almost fully stable, then ill start working on a kernel for it
[Captivate Android Development] shane87:
Kinda got your plate full!?!?!? I would be going nuts, keeping up with that many projects! You are a beast ex!
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
Lol, yea its getting confusing lol... but I'm about to combine 3 of them (drop 2.3.7 support for TalonRom and make TalonICS and TalonTAB one project, which will become new TalonROM) I'm doing them separate right now so I can see what the bare minimum (keeping it as close to AOSP as possible) has to be done for each device, then I can sort out all my directories to support both (what needs done for bionic or framework for example , for each device then combine them...that way I don't have to add a bunch of stuff that doesn't apply to either one.. so in the end it won't be to bad... lol
[Captivate Android Development] shane87:
Sounds like a plan. If you need to off load some work on Talon (i897/i9000) or TalonICS (i897/i9000, when you start it) just let me know. I already have all but the last couple of days worth of work on Talon downloaded to my linux box. I try to keep my sources up to date with your github.
[Captivate Android Development] Trongable:
Hey existz,

Non-Captivate owner here, but asking for a friend. How's the battery life on this kernel? I'm mostly interested in battery life when idle. My friend's Captivate can lose about 20-30% in one night if he leaves it off the charger. On the other hand, my Galaxy Nexus loses about 3-5% throughout the night.

Also, are there any other kernels that specialize in battery life?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] rlorange:
Great news about TalonICS i9000. Onecosmic rc2.1 is out and for everyday use is, dare I say, very close to stable.

[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
Really looking forward to ics version of talon, so far kernels have gone one step forward and two back dont get me wrong grateful for the hard work but talon had always been most stable for me
[Captivate Android Development] mpencexda:
ondemand or ondemandx?
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
Ondemand. With the sleep detection already built in :)
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
For those wondering, the deep sleep detection patch is system wide..meaning it does work on any governor (it limits min/max clock during deep sleep) However Ondemand (not OndemandX) is tweaked a little extra to account for the deep sleep patch...so it will probably give the best battery life. The patch to Ondemand shouldn't be to hard to make work on OndemandX, but it is a little different..but I'll see what I can do in next release
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Is this tweak a ThunderBolt! tweak? Or a kernel tweak? I stopped using Talon because it was inferior to Semaphore for me (no offense existz).

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S Captivate on Blue Apex
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
What zram lag?

If 0.5.1 was latest you tried, then I'd try the latest test build (0.6.1) a lot has changed since then... memory problems seem to be an issue of the past in the last couple releases
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Remember how a few months ago, there's the ZRAM lag caused by swappiness and everything? Or did that get fixed?
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
Just disable swappiness and ZRAM if you're facing the lag :)
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Still happened... Hence the switch to Semaphore.
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
Hmm, not getting the lag. Probably because of some configuration?
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
The latest couple test builds don't seem to have the problems...I run default talon settings with no issues or lag at all... Most of the issue before was mainly LMK settings, which could be adjusted...(but theres now new settings from pikachu01 in last few builds) Semaphore uses stock Samsung settings (I believe), which is why theres always 100+ mb free (Samsung settings are very flawed, kills everything way to early) But this was reason for MemoryFreak, so users could adjust to their needs (more multitasking or performance). .the goal with talons setup is to give best of both worlds... but you could set same LMK settings in talon that semaphore uses and have 100+... but IMO thats just wasted memory (remember this is not windows.) But with 0.6.1 out of the box there should be no issues, or at least to the point where slightly tweaking in MF should meet everyones needs
[Captivate Android Development] sjavvaji:
are there plans for updating talondev with the JVU initramfs?...I'm looking forward to using the rom.
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
I usually keep initramfs updated to latest (is JVU newer than JW1?) ...all it is is updated precompiled modules for rfs and FM radio, so there's really no difference at all ..rarely there is any other changes (ie.. init changes, etc) so most of the time you can still use older version on new release. So chances are 0.6.1 will work fine as is
[Captivate Android Development] sjavvaji:
JVU is newer than JW1. It was packaged on Dec 31st vs JW1 Dec 15th/16th. Weird naming system but it has faceunlock, sgs II photo editor, and is apparently smoother. I'll try it with your current 0.6.1 release after the ICS themes start changing over. Thanks for the clarification.
[Captivate Android Development] smalldookie:
I'm already on JVU (Samsungs so called value pack), and i switched kernel to talon. Runs really smooth. But the problem is, with every older custom kernel, other than the stock one (tried darkcore, semaphore and talon) you can't take pictures with front cam, cause it freezes, and the pics you take while filming (new value pack feature) can't be viewed in gallary.

We are in an experimental state right now, so reading might actually solve any questions you have and possibly save you from a brick. The same questions are starting to be asked page after page..and is reallly getting old.. so ill ask nicely this time, please read before you post...I don't mean to be an ass but I've seen the same 2 questions page after page for the last few days now and they have all been answered multiple times.

/end of rant...sorry but had to be said..

Also, I don't care to help anyone, anytime, but please ..if you pm me, add more than.. "hey, (insert here) does not work, what do I do?"..I need a little bit more info than that...tell me what you would want someone to tell you if you were trying to help them..

Seems funny i would choose the above post to give a thanks but no really i was worried when u did nightlies a while back and im glad u have decided to take the high road while still putting your foot down. Considering how much info you ACTUALLY put out and people will still ask is astounding. really this all becomes a simple process after awhile. something seems amiss? reflash or check a few pages back..check the OP for known issue. Wanting to know if a feature is being added? check if the OP has a repo link and f5 to your hearts content *that would be me lol* If you dont like the "change" always keep a backup handy and come back later if/when you think said problem is fixed. Want to be more help than hinderance? always try to only post issues that arent already known...existz is seems to be in the RARE catagory of answering PM's *as long as above rules are followed*.

Hey, so is this kernel gonna get OC to 1.6ghz, and a CWM flashable zip?

:D

I kid, I kid....

But on a more serious note, I just tried using the jrummy Busybox installer, as was suggested earlier in the thread as a potential fix for VC settings not sticking.... and the installer hung mid-install, leaving me with no working busybox. This turns out to be a much bigger problem then it sounds, since with no working busybox, apps can't su successfully, and so you can't reinstall a working busybox! Luckily I had a recent nandroid backup, and restoring /system got me back up and running, but for a couple minutes there I thought I was hosed. I'm not sure if this was just a one-off problem or what, but I just thought I'd report it as a word of warning to everyone else.
[Captivate Android Development] LNJ:
Happened to me once. All you have to do is open TiBu and hit Problems and it will download and reinstall Busybox again.

ok for some strange reason i cant convert to ext4 after flashing gr-11. ill explain my steps. converted back to rfs, did a nandroid backup after a tibu backup, flashed the gr11 rom, let it boot once, reboot to recovery and did a restore of data ONLY, reboot again. things look good, flash talon from odin and reboot. still good, used the ext4 tool and here its hard to explain. It will reboot to recovery and very quickly i can see at the bottom installation aborted and then another quick flash on the screen i see the computer-!-phone screen but it quickly reboots and im back in like nothing happened. not a huge problem since everything still works but not sure whats up. oh yeah, cleared the dalvik and cache as a precation but no change.

[Captivate Android Development] bamonkey:
looks like i still had root in TIBU so i tried to re-install busybox. still no success:(
[Captivate Android Development] shane87:
Yes, that is a known issue. A quick question, are you using voltage control or voltage control ex? They both work the same way. In fact, vcex is more or less an extended version of voltage control. Anyway, the issue is that, for whatever reason, gb and the shellinterface that vc and vcex uses don't play well together. The issue seems to be confined, however, to the states enabled settings. I do have a version of vcex that DOES show states tab, I am just waiting on some testers with froyo to report back. I want to make sure I didn't break it in froyo by fixing it for gb, since many users are still on froyo. Hopefully I will release the update today, as long as I get the test info back.

And as soon as I get vcex up, I will post links in here and in perception ii thread.

Once I get vcex up and going again, I will be going back to work on my re write of vcex that is tailored for this kernel.

Well, if it is broke on froyo, that is what I plan on doing. But I want to know if it is broke on froyo first. If it isn't broke on froyo, I don't want to have to duplicate the source tree and modify it to work on froyo again, unless I have to. Call me lazy, but that's how I am. Plus, I would rather not have to fork the source tree, otherwise I will have to make sure when I add a feature to one, I will have to re-implement it on the other, and that adds complexity that, if I can, I would rather avoid.
