attached you'll find test-builds with deep-idle support enabled (cpu only) so Gingerbread bootloaders are imperative

please give feedback if you encounter any instabilities, SODs, etc.

if you run into any -

1) please remove system/etc/init.d/S98system_tweak first [& re-flash kernel with the init-script removed from the zip install-package]

2) then test again if it's stable afterwards

thanks & enjoy !

i downloaded r18 (led notification and bln)

what is the difference in operation between led notification and bln ?

aren't they the same thing?? -> led lights up when message arrives without screen on.

My 2 Cents :)

** Kernel Report after 2 days of usage **

ROM: MIUI Official 1.10.7

MODEM: JVS

KERNEL: Platypus NEO17 r18 with deep-idle support

GOVERNOR: Stock (it should be ondemandb)

Had no SODs, BLN Works after the enable-disable-enable-disable-enable thing.

Wifi works nice but the range on NEO XX is better (probabily due to 2.6.37 drivers).

Green screen with "Punchy-settings" on low light bug is still there (but since changelog didin't mention any fix I knew it)

Nothing to say. This may enter in the hall of fame of Platypus kernels like the old NEO redux 5 ;)

The only thing that could be improved is smoothness under ondemandb governor. MIUI Launcher (which is kind of the ultimate test for smoothness :p ) lags a little. Not a big deal but it would be nice if you managed to tweak ondemandb a bit more :)

That's it.

Thanks a lot for your amazing work! ASAP I'll send you a donation for your time (from my humble pocket money :rolleyes: )
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Th30n34nd0nl7:
Hey guys,

first of all, thanks for the great kernel works pretty well, except one thing.

Since I flashed the Kernel 17 r18 I cant use my external SDcard anymore. Whenever I plug it in, my notification bar tells me, that whether my external sdcard is empty or the data system is not supported. It offers me to format the sdcard, which when i do also formats my internal sdcard, but still then my external gets errors.

I'm not 100% sure whether the problem already existed on miui stock kernel, but i think i can remember listening to music on miui which indicates i had my external card working.

I searched the thread for any answers but it seems i am the only one with this problem on the neo kernel. In the german miui forum some others are experiencing this problem too, though there is no solution yet.

Is there any fix for this problem or is it possible to make one?

My sdcard is a 32GB class4 sandisk microsd.

Dont hit me with rocks if i just didnt find an existing solution plz, i was looking for one quite some time.

Thanks in advance!

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lippol94:
Are you running a Gingerbread Bootloader? (From JVK/JVQ/JVR/JVS etc)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Th30n34nd0nl7:
Yes, i flashed it as described in this tutorial: http://miui.einsteinno1.de/976/
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
last night flashed miui and this kernel, everything worked well until 3 hours ago, i couldn`t see some stuff on my internal sd card, so (thank god i had a back-up of cm7) i restored the backup with the same kernel and everything started working.

this must be something from "the dark side" :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Cotte:
hey, im useing 17r18. do u have to use the app bln for led notification with this kernel? on 17r17 the notificatzion works without that app.

Are you running 7.1 now? If yes, is it any good? :D I just love the MIUI interface, but if my sdcard keeps getting errors, cm would be my next option.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
well, logicly, bln works with bln app, led notif work with led notif app in cmparts :)

bln does not equal led notif 5th post in this thread, you should read it

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hnernes:
@zacharias.maladroit: what kernel branch are you currently working on? I use the neo17 branch, but I was considering switching to neoxx, but there hasn't been any updates on that branch in a while?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
:)

there were some additional changes in the latest kernel I posted - so those would be added,

besides that BLN also needs to be tested on captivate + vibrant

still on the Neo 17 branch [currently I'm also using that on my phone]

Neo XX is kinda hard to update since several changes from the upstream, cm7 / teamhacksung repo haven't been included

so I would need to add those first

but due to lack of time - seems like I'm focusing on Neo 17 branch more

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
didn`t have the chance, testing something else right now :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] {Angel}:
So the deep idle test is from 20111009? Does it have everything from the 20111010 version? Is there a stock color version of the deep idle available? Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
Picky aren't we :D.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] {Angel}:
Not picky... Just want to be sure whats in it.... And about the voodoo color I just don't like it :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
i`m talking about the voodoo color, he already makes 6 kernels at once, you now want even the test builds to be feature packed.

you can live with voodoo color, if not, choose the final build
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] purpleraintoxicity:
What do you test Sikh?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thunderteaser:
Zach, what have you done to Voodoo Colors? It's the best implementation I've seen so far, colors are much more natural and bright with the same settings I had on r16! Though it feels like it's not snappy as before. The UI seems less smooth with smartassv2 even when overclocking. I don't know if smartassv2 was meant to be working better without the 600 MHz step or if it was the toolchain switch, but I can clearly say that r16 was faster, at least on MIUI.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] purpleraintoxicity:
Donno about you, I'm using r18 with voodoo color and its way faster then I ever saw....

What Vers do you use?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] {Angel}:
Feature packed? No. as I said I just want to know what I'm testing and I have always had problems with voodoo color, can't stand it. so if you consider voodoo a feature then the exclusion of it hardly qualifies as being feature packed dont you think?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thunderteaser:
I'm talking about r18, VC version with led-notifications.

@Zach: By the way, I would also like to report that LBE Privacy Guard is not working anymore, it can't start the service and quits. I read somewhere, in CM7/MIUI forums, that the kernel might be problem. logcat doesn't say anything relevant about it, what can you tell me?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cynsx:
Flashed Neo17 R18.

The setting of voodoo colour is the best compared with the previous releases.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] knanda:
Can anyone please post the voodoo color values used in the latest kernel??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] burakgon:
Lags in appdrawer animations. Adw launcherpro and all.

Games are better.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] knanda:
Lag in the tw4 launcher scrolling..

lagging when opening applications...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] eths83600:
Same here, not as fast a the previous one apart the games
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
are you two using ondemandb, or did you set cpu speed to max 400 mhz? :D

which kernel are you using?

there's nothing lagging. It's lightning fast, even if there are many apps running at the same time.

I'm using the one with bln, zach posteted two days ago. smartassV2 governor
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
I see what you did there.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] eths83600:
No, nothing more or less then with the previous kernel.

No uv, oc to 1400. Games are much better, desktop/app drawer a bit less.

It's still fast ofc, but a bit less
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
uncomment following 3 lines in S98system_tweak:

so that it looks in the following way:

then re-flash the kernel

that should make it fast like before again

if that's not enough

change back

to

those that had some instability issues before

try doing these changes, too

this might make the phone faster but not sure if this also leads to instabilities

so I need some feedback

if there's no change in stability

the scheduler tweaks (more aggressive timings) are activated by default again
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thunderteaser:
You forgot to remove the hashes! :p By the way, it feels much more reactive now, thanks! :) Also, i found out that for the first time my phone can handle more than 1.2GHz! Yayyy! Just for curiosity, how much are you guys overclocking on r18? And do you suggest to uv more than -25 on higher frequencies?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
^^

yeah, thanks for catching, fixed
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
wouldn't it be easier, to edit the files, which are inside the init.d, and then just reboot the phone, instead of editing the files which are inside the zip file?

edit: and could you please clear out, which kernel is having which feature at android-hilfe.de

me and some other users are very confused about the kernels released at 09.10. and 10.10 :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jose.celestino:
Or edit them and run them without even rebooting, that would be even easier.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] siky_dude:
You need to reboot so that changes apply.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jose.celestino:
Aren't those runtime tunables?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
you could run it once by using script manager

only changing the values within the script, without running the script again (at boot, or with script manager), does not make any sense
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
sure, edit & reboot

it depends on what is more convenient, e.g. for me I'd push an updated init-script to the phone or edit it via vim on the console (logged in via adb shell)

for others it's faster to re-flash the whole kernel

changes between 09.10. & 10.10:

sorry - yeah, that's a little confusing but that's the features that I test from branch to branch & then post to get more feedback

official (test)-releases have a uniform / consistent set of changes

sure :)

in this case the new values can also be applied during runtime (in contrast to e.g. the dpi resolution)

yes

yeah, reboot

or apply in the current session
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AlexandreT:
Thanks Zach!

These changes work great. Big change in speed and fluency.

If you don't mind me asking, why were these settings commented out?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] {Angel}:
So 10.10 also has deep idle or only 09.10 has it?

I flashed 10.10 but not sure if it has deep idle.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] barome:
There is a little customization of the scripts to have a faster kernel

Nice work dude.

I'm back to r18bln though, cause after 2hrs of heavy use in your kernel I got a lot of constant fc's

Which I rarely have.

for me neo r18 bln is fast as yours...

The net faster too somehow on the r18bln

Thank you even though I'm not using :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] {Angel}:
Sorry for bringing this up again, but I am eager to test deep idle. I flashed the 20111010 r18, Do I have to flash 20111009 to get deep idle? I see that the changelog posted by zach of 20111009 to 20111010 mentions a change for dmesg that mentions deep idle, does this mean 20111010 has it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] purpleraintoxicity:
From Zach post I understand that

20111009 is the deep idle test and other are finals (not a tests)

Btw:

20111009 deep idle test work fine.

No sod or instabilities.

Just one thing, sometimes after more then an hour idle it lag for 4 sec after unlocking the screen.

Happend with screenstate ondemandb as awake a lot. Without screenstate much less.

When using screenstate w/ smartass/v2 as awake it not happening.

Zach, is it possible to make Smartassb (or so)?

Cause after testing each governor for couple of hours, smartass using all frequencies,

while ondemand's using mainly 1000 or 1000- (Rarely using 600).

And smartassv2 using 600 as the lowest when screen on (which eating batt life as a hungry zombie!)

Thanx in advance, donation will come when my credit arrive
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] benjieg:
Yes, I noticed that BLN not in 20111010, but it's still in 20111009 though so I'm on that kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gugus38:
My mistake!

Actually it works, I made a mistake while setting up "Quiet Hours".. LED was constantly being dimmed.

Now it works perfectly, and very very low idle drain: 4% in 8 hours with wifi/gps and sync on.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
I thought you were joking the first time talking about it.

What do you think smartassb should do? stay at 200 mhz for the most time? :D

edit: because there still seems to be some confusion about the features of each kernel (don't know which kernel is told to be which), I went through this thread again, and tried to find it out.

I hope I did not make a mistake. If so, please correct me.

As far as I know, these are the newest kernels, which are only having led notify, and no deep-idle:

The "changelog" about these kernels should be this one:

but I do not know, how the last point does belong to the newest kernels, because they do not have BLN and also do not have deep-idle?!

The kernels which are using deep-idle are these:

this one has led-notify: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=745028&d=1318204387

and this one has bln: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=745033&d=1318204424

and if one has the feeling, the kernel is slower than earlier releases, one should try this:
