i have been running dlev rom with the original talon on it. i think it was 0.4.3. i've updated talon atleast 5 times from 4.4.9 to 4.4.21. when i open MF, it was basically blank. no settings showing up. i have verify that there is no ram.conf in my /etc folder and yet i was able to tell the difference on how the phone ran going from each talon without a ram.conf file. i have restarted the phone many times hoping it would regenerate the file. what am i missing?

btw i must say, .21 is running really smooth for me. thanks existz and kodos for your hard work.
[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
Existz just want to ask if I lower the hidden app mem size to 28 that means it is more on single tasking right? and does changing these things will impact the battery for some reason I draining my battery with just doing nothing still trying to pinpoint it.

Hi there,

I'm trying this kernel for the first time and it feels pretty good so far.

Unfortunately BLN doesn't work for me. I'm having the «incompatible liblights» issue.

Wasn't it supposed to be fixed?
[Captivate Android Development] FocuseD83:
BLN works for me... Make sure its enabled, if not, reflash.

Make sure you have bln control app
[Captivate Android Development] iXNyNe:
@existz can any range of lmk settings controlled by the app make the phone unstable (that you know of?) In the same sense that we shouldn't undervolt too much or some phones cannot overclock past certain frequencies?
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
Not really, atleast with the app. All the settings are setup so you cannot go overboard with them ...it just gives the user the choice to slightly tweak the memory features of Talon, nothing to drastic

On another note to all users, FYI I just ordered an Inspire, hopefully ill have it by Monday. So this will probably cut down some of my time with talon.. However, I'm sure the rest of the team will be working on it as usual, plus I WILL continue to develop for Talon as ill still have my Captivate, but I will also be starting to do work on the Inspire and will become my daily device

Yea, I just wanted something completely different than what we do now, just something to change it up a bit... atleast to last for 2-3 months till prime is out ..very burnt out on Samsung atm
[Captivate Android Development] bamonkey:
Holy smokes i think i might be waiting on the nexus prime instead of the s2 now and thats saying something. i did notice its supposed to be AOSP but i guess samsung is making the hardware huh....sounds ok to me i like the current hardware in my captivate it was the software that was such a pain in the *merp* when i first got it lol. Thanks for the heads up this was the first ive heard of a new nexus:cool:

*Also i really need to leave ATT since they are lining up some really *merp derp* idiot changes in policy in the next few months*

[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
There is a good chance Nexus Prime will be an unlocked AOSP device, so Samsung may not have much say in rom/kernel department. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
I read that its possible the prime may be made Motorola. But that was like forever ago (maybe 3 days lol). If the google buy out of Moto takes place, that would make a lot sense to me.

Now, I think we should get back to kernel stuff. Never know when a troll will run and tattle to a mod (happened in miui thread earlier this week).

I thought you could go past 1.3 with tegrak if you bought the app?
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
You can you just have to change it in the Optimization section
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
As of right now 1.2ghz is about the Max I'm going to go.. I don't limit it to 1.2ghz because I think higher is useless or pointless, or anything like that, ...there's actually quite a bit of **** in talon that I don't personally use, or I think there's no need for, BUT that's the point of talon, having options ...But with adding oc higher than 1.2ghz leads to alot of instability.. so until I can figure out away to offer higher oc, and it actually be stable (I'm not talking about where everyone can run 1.4 stable, all phones are different and alot of ppl just simply cannot handle it., I'm talking about the method used to add the higher oc being stable), without it scrolling to Max freq no matter what Max clock is set to with certain apps, launchers, games..etc , adjusting all the steps correctly for DVFS settings, ..etc.etc.. the biggest issue is it scaling to Max frequency no matter what Max clock is with certain apps, games, launchers, etc. , this one is a ***** to figure out..so until I can either figure that out, or create my own module (kind of like tegrak where it replaces top frequency (L0)..) ill only be doing 1.2ghz

From what ive heard neldar is working on bln, so hopefully soon ...didn't mean to sound like an ass earlier, just tired :p ...as for vc ex, none of the onix tweak are in yet...such as threshold tweak, and probably wont add it since we are not using the conservative governor..with the others you can't control like that since it usually just scales from 100 to Max clock in one jump

The battery lasts less than 10 hours for me, when I could easily get 20+ hours with froyo. Will upgrading busybox would help?

Edit: Android OS has 60% of battery usage. I guess it's normal. Is it?
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
What's the preferred Busybox version?
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
Haha well the only other thing I did was wipe the voltage settings and reboot a couple of times, and that didn't do jack ****.

Is there any other way to check if the deep sleep state is being used outside of cpu spy? I'm assuming running the su command wouldn't do the job as cpu spy just runs that command to get it's info?

Edit:

1.84.1 I believe. It's the one at the top of the dropdown menu. The one already installed is 1.19, which the busybox app labels as "unstable"

Herp derp Captivate XDA app.
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
By the way existz, could you make /system mounted by default in CWM in the next release please? I know it's not the kind of things you are working on right now, but I guess it's an easy thing to do and you just didn't think about it yet. ;)

Thanks in advance existz. I love your work. Using your kernels since SP#35

:confused:

Are you using this kernel on a i9000??
[Captivate Android Development] joeshmoe08:
It seems to me that you have a I9000 or simply a phone that is not a captivate. If so you are in the wrong section and you might want to go to the development section under your phone and get a JVB kernel there. This section is strictly for captivate pwners.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
No its not normal. Until Continuum RC3 and the latest kernel I had nothing even in that remote ballpark. On the most recent of both I do but I think it may be flash related, etc versus ROM or kernel related.

Android OS was eating my battery heavily too. Rebooted = no help. I rebooted a second time into recovery, cleared the cache partition then booted up. I then disabled autorotate and now my Android OS is no longer eating battery. I am going to enable autorotate and see what it does.
[Captivate Android Development] froli13:
Running ApeX and always had stellar battery life with froyo versions. Looking forward to future releases, but I'll try to go back to stock and master clear then reflash ApeX 6.1. It can't do anything but help I guess.
[Captivate Android Development] johan8:
Here is i897 section,

all kernel are for i897 only.

The h/w inside between i897 and i9000 is slightly different.

i897 can't use i9000 kernel; it will no sound, wrong home key, wrong accelerometer....

If you use i897 kernel on i9000, you will get similar problem.
[Captivate Android Development] cashyftw:
Well I have the vibrant, and am using this kernel, the only issue is the keymapping, IE: the back button does nothing, and home is back, no big, working fine though, sound and everything.
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
If any of your kernel developers in the vibrant forum wants to build off my kernel, my repo is at https://github.com/existz/linux_gt-i9000-gb ...im not sure how the button mapping is with the vibrant, if its like the i9000 or not, if so theres an i9000 config for talon they can use...Ytt3r mentioned actually doing an i9000 version and maintaining it...if so it will be up sometime..dont know when.
[Captivate Android Development] cashyftw:
I was looking at the cappy (nickname) and all the buttons are the same, which is weird, so not to sure why the back button is not working, they're in the exact same place.
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
Correct, that one :) ...even though its made by Samsung and "said" to be like a refreshed s2, that's just hardware wise. , software (rom/kernel) will be pure Google AOSP (like the nexus s), and IMO this is how every android phone should be, manufactors making the hardware and then Google gives the AOSP rom/kernel..,instead of this bull**** touchwiz, motoblur, sense variants with locked drivers/source

trying out

talon test kernel 0.4.4.21

only thing odd, have been using launcher pro and it locks up for a period of time on reboot, then starts working

uninstalled then reinstalled and still locks up

adw ex works fine and actually seems smoother on this kernel

other launchers work ok too

just going to use adw for now

I'm using Go Launcher too. Didn't lock up for me. What governor/scheduler are you using?
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
My 2 cents...i think v(R) scheduler works best. Ondemandx works great as well

Sent from my Apex Blue JVR Samsung Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I'm at work right now so I can't really search, but is there a guide or something that lists all the differences and what not of all the different schedulers?
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
You could run a quick I/O benchmark (3 times each) of all the scheduler to see which are the best for you.

Governors depend on your usage. Ondemand for better performance. Ondemandx for better battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] johan8:
(.21) ondemandX has problem for me.

testing 1200, UV - 25 50 75 100 100

ondemandX has sleep death and system service FC and reboot.

Now back to ondemand seems is normal now.

Will test non-UV ondemandx later.
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
Yup.. you might have UVed too much, try reducing UV and try again :)
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
I jump between Go Launcher and Launcher Pro (leaning more towards LP) and I find Go launcher to be a bit choppy, and find that my widgets break every so often on reboot (requiring them to be completely removed and readded).

So far, I find LP to be the best performing launcher.
[Captivate Android Development] talleywhacker:
Launcher pro does the same to me as well. Works after everything settles and loads

Sent from my Apex'd JVR Cappy.
[Captivate Android Development] johan8:
I think uv cause the problem.

But just -100 is too much !?:(

what is the benefit of ondemandx ?
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
100 is too much for higher frequencies. Like 400/800/1GHz.

OndemandX is to save battery over some lost of performance.
[Captivate Android Development] johan8:
No you have been misunderstood.

800 -50

400 -75

And there is no 1Ghz in my phone

I don't do -100 to 200mhz and above, it is still too much!?
[Captivate Android Development] rlorange:
I've had success with tegrak free (or paid) in tandem with control freak.

Set UV for all lower frequencies, io etc and use tegrak to just set the top freq to 1.3

**Simply Honey3.9, Talon kernel1.3ghz**
[Captivate Android Development] toy028:
Using ondemandX seems to give me some issues making and recieving calls after its been in deep sleep for awhile and/or after a day or so of being on using test kernel 21. Im going to try ondemand and see what those results yield. Great battery life on ondemandx btw.
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Now reinstalling .21 causes my Captivate to hang at the initial boot screen just like the first time I installed .21 a couple days ago. This means that the first time I install .21, it is also a fresh install of MemoryFreak. I think this explains why the kernel and app ain't working for me. Doing a battery pull ain't helping either. It's like I killed the phone. All it does is boot loop if I try to get into recovery mode. Luckily I can still get to download mode.
[Captivate Android Development] rlorange:
Sure can but be wary of using tegrak to control UV on other freq... doesn't work as well.

Also the jump from 800 to a really high top speed might be a problem.

**Simply Honey3.9, Talon kernel1.3ghz**
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
my freakin Tegrak says i have to buy:eek: PRO to set my UV and such. I can push it up to like 1300MHz but not do jack with UV to the core etc. wonder:confused: why you got the option and i didnt.(pouting:()

EDIT - okay so while we are on this topic. What is the defualt APP existz is suggesting we use? is it not Tegrak because of some type of file location error with ControlFreak? And is the new Talon App by shane going to take both Tegrak AND ControlFreak out of the equation all together? from the way shanes app looks is that is going to be more for the schedular than UV core etc control.

INPUT?
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
Some phones can't handle too much UV, however I'm not sure how your phone will react. It all comes down to experimenting with the values. I can't say that this(or that )value is good for your phone. You'll have to test it and see the outcome for yourself.

Try to flash some other kernel to see if it still bootloops. Might not be Talon's fault as the ROM you are using might have something that clashes with Talon.

MemoryFreak is only for tweaking the ram.conf and nothing else. Control Freak is for tweaking the scheduler, voltage and frequency. You can use Voltage Control or Pimp My CPU as alternatives.
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
than what was all the talk about using Tegrak about? i even heard existz talking about using it over ControlFreak before he started 4.4.x beta testing. something about the file location being different between the two apps mentioned.

inquiring minds want to know, lol.
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
Tegrak's sole purpose is to OC (and UV) the higher frequencies > 1.2GHz. For all other UV purposes of the lower frequencies, you should use Voltage Control or Pimp My CPU or Control Freak.

Edit: Existz mentioned that the lower frequencies uses Voltage Control's source code in which VC, CF and Pimp My CPU's code is based on. Tegrak uses a kernel injection method to inject code to enable higher frequencies and its own UV code. Hence, you should use the aforementioned apps to tweak the original OC/UV code and Tegrak to only the code it injected.
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
ahhh,

and that is why you are master and i am but a simple servant. lol. ControlFreak it is. I dont go above 1200MHz anyways, so bye-bye Tegrak. I like CF much better anyways.

So, with MemFreak, has is been mentioned with some real detail as to what setting we should strive for and possibly which direction does what? cause i am still seeing some lag, not anything to make me drop Talon for, but it is there and wondering if it might be something i could de-bug out of my Cappy over the weekend with minor test run on various settings. MemFreak talk is new to me, yes, pleading total fkn noob here. lol.
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
You can read what Memory Freak does in the "Help/Tips". Basically, you'll want to tweak zram/swappiness to reduce the lag you're seeing right? I set mine to use 160MB of ZRAM and 50% of swappiness. This is not an optimum setting though. I'm setting mine to a lower ZRAM/Swappiness so that zram doesn't swap too often and I only need that much of ZRAM to be available to me since multi-tasking is not on my priority.

Edit: Other than that, you can choose the governor to be Ondemand (for better performance) and use SIO/VR as schedulers. Some people are getting good throughput when using it.
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
yeah, i have been tossing between ondemandX and ondemand, as well as performance with ControlFreak.

and yeah, i havent looked into MemFreak as of yet, the woman has had my Cappy playing Birds and such all day. lol. So i got it now and going to look into it a little further before i crash out. was looking for what you provided at the end of the post, some settings with multi not being a priority and possibly build off of that and what others say. as you and i well know, its all a game of finding what works with YOUR Cappy. cause even when we say we do or dont multi, we may find that we go the other way a little more than we had thought. i tend to not multi, but i have my times of banging the hell out of the I897 till it screams at me. lol. thank god for otterbox, or i would have burns sometimes. lol.

tnx again.

I've been having issues toggling wifi on and off. Using the task bar or settings. It keeps giving me an error message. Takes about 4 or 5 tires and some times a reboot to get wifi going.

Any ideas? Thanks for the amazing kernel!
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
Before this, toggling wifi on/off many times will result in a reboot. Existz fixed it to show an error rather than have a reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] kitkitfok:
hello, can anyone tell me the use/mean of zram/swappiness?
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
Zram (or compcache) basically compresses your data in your RAM then stores it back. This way, you can have more RAM than you could physically could have.

Swappiness is how often memory from the RAM is compressed and swapped back to the RAM (i.e. how often memory from the RAM is compressed and stored as compressed cache)
[Captivate Android Development] TheShamsMan:
Ah! I understand. Makes sense. Is this then a Samsung issue then?
[Captivate Android Development] pikachu01:
Yes, its a Samsung issue. Reboot is reproducible in every kernel with the difference only with how many times you turn on/off. Different SGS's also have different number of times.
[Captivate Android Development] apparition:
I ended up giving myself bootloops when I set my ZRAM to 0. I had to default my ram.conf in CWM for my phone to boot up again :confused: I suppose I did a bad thing?
