Someone else can 100% verify this, but, to the best of my knowledge, you can keep only 100 and 1200 enabled with no major side effects. However, if you check your time in states info, through vcex, control freak, or cpuspy, you will see that the interactive governor does use the other states, albeit very sporadically. So you would be likely to see more battery drain. On the other hand, since interactive sometimes seems to get stuck on the lower states occasionally, only having 100 and 1200 enabled MAY reduce lag.

Again, this is to the best of my knowledge. Someone with more knowledge may now step in and call me a complete fool if I am wrong. :)

The lag was exactly what I was looking at. I seem to have sporadic lag, only lasting about 4, maybe 5 seconds, then its ok. As far as battery, I think I will be ok.I'm going about 16hrs, with 4 1/2hrs on display. Thanks.

[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
UPDATE: tried this for a couple hrs. Then, changed tweaks to speed, no a time, and dirtyness. No more lag. Heres where it gets odd. When I changed my states back to all, there was no performance difference. Still no lag.

added zram/zcache (compcache)

updated lowmemkill settings

compiled with O2 instead of Os

cwm verify battery stats wiped

fix issue with 1ghz step

added interactiveX governor

Notes regarding BLN

You need to extract and then copy the attatched services.jar to /system/framework/ for SMS notifications to work. Without it notifications will be killed when the screen turns on, with the patched services.jar it allows notifications until they are actually checked. Also remember that you will need BLN Control App to enable BLN .. NOTE that this has only been tested with Continuum 5.4.1 and 5.5..

Hey existz,

Thanks for putting the test file up. After initial loading, I had the sleep of death occur once, but I haven't seen it again. If I can manage to recreate it, I'll give you the heads up. Other than that, I can't find anything to complain about. The memory tweaks allow me to run spb shell 3d smoothly.

If I am not going to use BLN do I need to install the files anyway?

The post sounds like I wont get any notifications with the screen off unless I use BLN
[Captivate Android Development] Reynaldinho111:
Definitely, but it took me a lot of messing with tweaks. after a couple hours of testing I found my best results when I only had speed tweak, no a time, scheduler and dirtyness. Right now its running well but Im gonna keep messing with it a lil and see what I can do. Let me know how it works for you.

when I look at About Phone

the kernel version starts with 2.6.35.7-I9000JVB

I is that a typo? the date in the kernel is May 20
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
The services.jar just allows bln to work correctly (allowing bln notifications with screen on) if you don't want to use BLN, you don't have to copy it.
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
No its not a typo, the -I9000xxJVB actually means something..whatever source the modules are compiled from, the version magic has to match it, or the modules wont work. Since all we have is JVB source, in order to compile and use cifs/tun and zram modules, I have to leave it as jvb so it matches. There are some jvh,jvo modules out there, but if I use jvh/jvo version magic, then cifs/tun, zram modules wont work...etc, same goes for anything else that uses pre-compiled modules from jvb source..again, which is all we have right now ..I've just modified init.rc in the initramfs for it to work on jvh/jvo..but jvh versions of talon will not work on jvb, as init.rc has to be a certain way for jvb

I have flashed the newest test17r2 after being on test15 and the phone will reboot when I (some speculation, as these always seem to cause the reboot) enter airplane mode, it seems to reboot when I have wifi or bluetooth on (but has done it without either one activated) and then enable airplane mode. The phone will either lock up then reboot, or reboot as soon as I try to enable airplane mode. I have seemed to recreate it a few times by toggling on wifi, then holding the power button and then press airplane mode. This will either cause the lock up or instant reboot. I am going to reflash test17r2 to see if anything changes.

EDIT: I just reflashed t17r2 and it still is rebooting. Switched back to t15 and working flawlessly.
[Captivate Android Development] boog:
I actually found it out the hard way! Was playing with compiling existz source on my computer, and I changed that line that read JVB. Ended up with a non booting kernel. Change it back and everything seems to be fine!

Reboots related to signal strength/airplane mode?

Not sure if it's related, but mine's rebooted twice since moving (cleanly) to 5.5 w/the built-in kernel, the first while in my Gmail and the 2nd while doing a Speed Test run on my modem (JPG). Both times where when my cellular signal was very shaky... makes me wonder if the reboots might be related to how the OS/kernel deals with cell signal strength and/or switching in/out of airplane mode. I haven't had spontaneous reboots since I was in diapers.

Issue with MIUI Music player on sleep

Hey existz,

This may be related to the sleep of death issue I mentioned earlier. I did a clean flash using Odin, then I tried to use MIUI Music while the phone was sleeping. When the screen turned off, so did the music. When using the stock music player, I had no problems. Not sure if that will help.

Also, while I didn't have the same issues as some other people with bluetooth, I noticed that I had to reboot in order to get bluetooth working properly. No complaints, just want to help you get the best kernel out.

Gah! After reflashing 1.7, now my MIUI music player works. Not sure what magic you're pulling on your end, but I'm hoping for no more weirdness from me. Thanks for all your hard work on the kernel!
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
Because where I don't actually build the hourlys, they just pull my old jvb branch, while the ones I posted yesterday are only for jvh/jvo. The difference between the 2 is the way wifi is in init.rc, if you use one on the other (jvb on jvh, or jvh on jvb) and you turn on wifi it will cause boot loops..but also remember that dailys are still not the same as test builds. There's alot of things I put in test builds that are not pushed to my github, if I decide to use something then I usually push it..but not always, sometimes ill try 2-3 different things in test builds that are not pushed to git..thats why they are test builds
[Captivate Android Development] krufttangoud:
Thanks.

Didn't expect a reply from the OP, thanks. Obviously, I am new here I appreciate the explanation. I flashed it on and it did cause boot loops, so I admit I missed the the "for JVH/JVO only.":D Read the whole post. LOL. I look forward to the full release or the test when it is compatible with JVB.

I'm running T17r2 on continuum 5.5 with no UV/oc and SD, no-a-time scheduler, and dirtyness tweaks using EXT4 FS. Occasionally, I've noticed lagging of up to 20 sec while typing, some scrolling lag and ridiculously bad lag using maps 5.3.1. I mean like a minute between selection and action. Could be due to GPS Acquisition why that's so slow but not sure.

CIFS

So I've been doing some more testing with CIFS, and I've finally been able to replicate the problem a lot of you have been reporting, where shares mount successfully, but then show as empty. The problem seems to occur only on certain shares, although I haven't been able to figure out what it is about a particular share that makes it susceptible to the problem - I have two shares on the same server, same permissions, same everything, but one works fine, the other doesn't

The good news is that the problem seems to be with CifsManager, not with the kernel/ROM... everything works fine if you do the mounts manually via the command line, scripts, or a different app. I recommend you use Mount Manager - it doesn't seem to have the same problem, and it's IMHO a much better app anyway - it has features like auto mount/dismount on boot/wifi, custom args, custom module loading etc... also it supports NFS shares....

Which brings up a question I have for you users: is anyone else interested in having NFS support added to talon? I have it in my custom branch, but haven't committed it to mainline cause I'm not sure if anyone else cares about it... any other NFS users out there who would like to see it in Talon?
[Captivate Android Development] GeoMandell:
Just wanted to go ahead and throw my two cents in....

Running Continuum 5.5. On Talon Test 15, I had various lag/hiccups/etc here and there that would get worse as time went on. On test 17r2, that has been dramatically reduced to almost gone and it's basically as smooth as when I would run xcal's kernel. I am overclocked to 1.2 on the interactiveX governor, I turned all tweaks off and am running EXT4. Only issue I have so far is Bluetooth will not turn on. Not sure if this is a problem with the ROM, the Kernel, the modified services.jar (not sure if that even touches bluetooth functionality) or what. I had no issues with BT on Test 15, so I'm assuming it's the Kernel or the BLN services.jar.

I do know I'm incredibly happy to have BLN back and existz is a generous genius for putting up with all of us :-P

I will now put the original services.jar that came with Continuum 5.5 back and see if Bluetooth comes back.

Otherwise, please keep up the good work, existz.

Ive been messing with different types of compression for the initramfs, if im not mistaking, i think i used a certain type on 0.1.4, and then changed it, ..so as time went on i forgot about it..but now i think i figured out which one i was using and so far so good, things are as smooth as ever,...no lag at all (for me anyways)..also it might be the cause for the problems with wifi/bt modules loading.. ill do some testing over the next few days and hopefully figure this out

Since this is a test version, and a dev thread, I should report on the t17r2...

Everything seems to be great. I'm getting great battery life - less than 1% an hour drain when not in use, and pretty reasonable drain when used. I'm at 61% now after 21 hours, with a lot of music listening, a long phone call and some short calls, some texting, 30 minutes of display, etc. I get no lag. The TW4 I have is working without any issue (except no landscape in this version, but I'll live) - all widgets work. The only problem I have is wacky GPS, and I have been led to believe the kernel has very, very little to do with that, if any.

This is all with RFS. I had issues with prior test versions and EXT4, so I'm hesistant to spend time converting to find that I can never quite get things to work as well as they are working now. But I'm sure I'll eventually take the plunge.

Lastly, all with 1200 Mhz active, faster states at -50, slower states at -75.
