[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] KingMetal:
Neo 17 worked great half a day.

Govenor smartass 1200.

But when my battery came at 5% everything force closed.

Even settings.

Shut the phone down and then did not boot.

Had to re install nightly

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
well, talking about battery stats

the next build will have a more accurate battery capacity display

so it won't stay at e.g. 58% for 9+ hours

just letting you know
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madd0g:
Ah cheers, I'm kinda screwed, because I'm on a limit of H and it switches constantly on/off between E and H :] Most time on wifi anyway.

Btw about data loss, had that also on 1st flash of Neo17, did the relogin and now it stayed after a reboot. Maybe an I/O scheduler thing (noop is stock here, instead of CFQ) ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SDeba:
Thanks ;) And I am also using H and 3G all the time. The Edge is tooooo slow and it isn't worth 2-3h battery gain ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jornbjorn:
Edge is actually slower on cm than on stockrom. Edge can be used on stock, on cm7 its painfully slow.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xvarthx:
Im sorry for this noobish question but...how to use any scripts? How can i install it?

+1, 1st reboot, data loss, 2nd reboot (would not sync at this time), resynched contacts, 3rd reboot, data remains. only tested with contacts, as it is faster.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
it's actually more close to Neo 18 (or even Neo 20)

but I'll still call it Neo 17

I'm not that much of a higher version & attention whore :D

Does anyone have the explanation about VR Scheduler? I've searched and couldn't find a good explanation about it. Thanks before
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jetpackjeff:
On 17 for over 24 hours now on #88 nightly using led-notify kernel. No issues to report, everything super fast, a lot nicer than stock kernel. I personally can't live without voodoo colour so never stop implementing it! Without it my screen looks terrible! Battery life is about the same as stock #88 but worse then it was in nightly #80. I can live with that as I love quick charging while my phone is off now.

Using internqtional i9000 on Gingerbread JVQ bootloader & modem with no overclock or undervolt. No external SD use either.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hnernes:
What is the difference between ondemand and ondemandX scheduler?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] freaked9:
Zach, Neo17 uses the new yaffs2 driver too? That could behind the data loss problems couldn't?

I was thinkin about CM7's high 3g data battery drain, as i know its ported from Nexus S, could be that its SoC (to be more precise:the modem in the SoC) is slightly different from galaxy S? if so, why arent we using stock samsungs drivers in SGS CM7 kernels?

If there where the same than we could use the same roms i assume.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] KingMetal:
+ 1

Same question here.

I use smartass
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JJustin:
I had the exact same thing happen today on neo 16 r2, nightly #88. I think the last thing i was using my phone for was GPS. Held down power button to reboot it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hnernes:
Why the change to BFQ in IO scheduler?

Please correct me if this is wrong, but; BFQ is designed for rotation disks with latency time (to reduce that time), but NOOP is designed for SSD, flash or any other media that doesn't depend on mechanical movement, hence NOOP would be the better option??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madd0g:
Noop was on by default for me on Neo 17
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hnernes:
Yes it was default on the last release of NEO17, but on NEO17r5 it is BFQ.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nik0lica:
• BFQ as default i/o scheduler (in script)

• noop should be default without scripts [via kernel]

This is from changelog off v17r5...

Btw, great battery life on idle, I lost 3% for 8h during the sleep, with autosync ON. Smooth too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ajvulcan:
The phone reboot by itself sometimes with no reason....with neo17 r5
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hnernes:
Yea, I saw that, but I didn't enable any scripts and still the scheduler was changed to BFQ. How do I enable/disable scripts then?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yuktsi:
hye nik0lica, which kernel are you using v16 or v17r5?

I want the 8% per 8 hours battery life XDDD
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
thanks for your report ajvulcan !

so

when

did it reboot

exactly

?

sometimes is no accurate statement and of no real help

during / after calls, during heavy gaming, when using some weird app,

when overclocking / undervolting ? ...

this is a change/test to figure out whether those files in lost.dir (for some more - for other none / less) occur due t o noop i/o scheduler

if you want a different governor change it in system/etc/init.d/S98system_tweak

there bfq is set
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
You're holding it wrong.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ajvulcan:
It reboots with no reason, the 3 or 4 times it happened i was in the laucher doing nothing. No calls, no apps, no oc/uv. (Some minutes ago i was playing a game "nova 2" of gameloft., but not in that moment)

After rebooting i have error messages and fc like process.acore was close and since then its a constant. I've try to flash again (cm7 and miui) and always happens.

I haven't change the i/o nor the governor too, so it's with the defaults ones of the kernel.

needed any more detail?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Is it possible that I noticed a much fast building of dalvik-cache than on stock/fugu kernel (or is it only wishful thinking :))?

I emptied my Lost.dir and will see what will happen over the next few reboots (I do a daily reboot).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ajvulcan:
Holding how? pushing the power interruptor while i have it on my hand? you think i'm an idiot?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
yes please:

which launcher (adw cm7 stock ?)

just sitting there in the launcher for how long ?

what modifications to the launcher ? any themes ?

what nightly ?

two words:

Apple iPhone :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
....

wow.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ajvulcan:
Always stock launcher, in both cm7 and miui.

In cm7 no theme, using it as it was when i flashed. In miui the neongt theme (is here in xda), nothing more.

....2 or 3 minutes. Maybe some time looking the phone settings and 3 or 4 minutes afterwards it reboots and starts the fcs, like process.acore.

nightly 89 and 90 and 91....miui 1.8.12

Edit: i haven´t try with the 91....doing it now...

Edit2: I always flash jvq stock samsung rom before flashing cm7/miui roms.... that could have any influence?

edit3: No problems with cm7 nightly 91, i'm gonna try the miui again to be sure, flashing everything again :S

edit4: No problems now with miui ¿?¿?¿?¿?¿...... now im lost

edit5: It seems to be related with titanium backup and the automatical restores....so it's probably that some app causes the reboots and malfunctions....but with other kernels doesn´t happen...so it's a kind of strange incompatibility...

Excuse me, i didn´t catch it, i don´t have sense of humour.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] madd0g:
K, got some feedback.

Flashed CM7 nightly #91 over #88 today, then flashed Neo17r5. Changed from BFQ to noop with No Frills Cpu Control app and at next reboot I got fc's while trying to shoot photos. Tried running other apps like, ES File Explorer, MMS.apk and got fc's. Tried to reboot, the phone didn't boot anymore.

So I restored nandroid #88, flashed #91 over and then after successfull boot, Neo17r5. This time I didn't change the I/O scheduler from BFQ and no FC's yet for over an hour now. :] Also there was no data loss for Facebook, like on Neo17 first boot after flashing.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
I rebooted three time on Neo17r5 which was always enough to get files to show up in Lost.dir. This time it didn't happen. Keep my finger crossed :)

Enjoy !

@All:

if you encounter any stability issues please let me know

I'm currently trying to figure out what optimization flags in what combinations are the best for stability & performance

for issues that I can't reproduce:

try to backup your app-data

then do a factory-reset and restore only the data that is really needed so that you practically start with a clean system

also: if you're running your phone for a longer period of time & have some stability, etc. issues:

backup your data on the internal SD and try to format it

sometimes that does wonders :)

Report : neo17r5, ondemand / noop, nightly 88, supercharger script with recommended settings (irc), uv -50, -100, -100, -125, -150; no oc.

Battery life is good but not better than stock kernel (around 1%/h idle in 2g, bgnd data and sync on, juice defender on 1 sync/h, touchdown exchange account in push, gmail, Google+).

Overall the phone is blazing fast - thank you for pointing to supercharger too, it makes the whole really snappy, like a 1.2ghz oc.

I noticed that 7 files appeared in lost.dir. Don't really know if they appeared under r2 yesterday or today with r5.

Thank you again for your kernel : i always come back to it if I dare test another :)

When I reinstalled the chainfire plugin it rebooted with 8% less... and this happends every reinstall... is it ok,or shouls I calibrate again after?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kasper_h:
Neo17r5 is working very well here. I use conservative/conservative+BFQ. Nice and fluid behavior. Battery life is superb (0.5%/hour on wifi+lots of sync). No files found in Lost.dir anymore. Rebooted 5 times. Usually 1 reboot is enough to get 32kb files in this dir. So maybe BFQ is really a solution for lost files??

Battery % is also more reliable now. Rebooting after charging doesn't give a drop anymore, and drain is more stable (not staying a long time on a fixed percentage).

I was just wondering about the supercharger script mentioned by manjee, couldn't find it in this thread?!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] paratox:
17r5, cm7-nightly #91

had a reboot while scrolling desktops in launcher and hitting the power button after for locking the screen. no crazy uv, only the half of my usually stable values.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
There is no good way to make battery comparisons between different phones, there are just too many variables...different hardware, different apps, different expectations, different definitions of "light use"....

JVO may be marginally better then other modems, I would expect because it is the latest and therefore a bit better tweaked...but no one is going to say "My phone lasted the entire week I was stranded on Mt. Everest surrounded by rabid crocodiles all because of having the right modem!!" Any differences are very slight and mostly in our minds.

As for 2G vs 3G there is a very big difference just due to the tech, but yes 2G is MUCH slower and it is usually best to let your phone switch between the two as it sees fit. Also, I don't think the 2G/3G toggle bug is fixed in cm7 yet.

Anyway, if you want a phone that gets fantastic battery life on all 2G and don't really need performance, features or connectivity I have a couple Motorola RAZRs at the bottom of a drawer somewhere I can let you have cheap. I will even throw in a couple java games.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] currydude:
LOLS at your Motorola comment :L But MIUI 2G toggle works, so I would imagine it works for CM7 too.

From CM7 "Known Bugs" seciton:

2G/3G toggle (works if no data connection is active)

Both R6+ ondemand and interactive cause choppy Tap Tap Revenge gameplay for me (very choppy at beginning and become better as the song go)

Cheers in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Funny, I never have trouble being a smartass...

Are you using an app like Pimp My CPU? The goverence can be set in the more tab.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] suntzu123:
SGS take a lot of power when is not used... on CM7. Two days and you loose half of battery, doing nothing!

That's a lot.....

I know-> smartphones take a lot of power (screen,1GHz CPU....). Why do I have to loose power when I don't using it? Screen is OFF, CPU is IDLE, 2g/3g is same as in another phones....

My point is that, If I don't loose 15% of battery doing nothing I will get 15% more battery life doing something. We all are testing, massing things up, to get more power or more battery life...

... Since SGS is the most powerfull device and there is no apps except Dungeon Defenders that is using it... I only concern about battery life and functionality.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
I see your point, but that is part of the glick of smartphones...they are ALWAYS doing something. They are the hyperactive puppies of the gadget world, they are ready to play at a moment's notice.

Sure you can cripple most of your phones features to eake out three days on idle instead of two, but it just makes more sense to me to keep a charger or a spare battery handy. However ymmv so if you need to get extra idle time just shut off the data connection when you aren't using it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] suntzu123:
OFC I can do it, still power drain is quite a lot compare to JVB/JVK so there is much to do....

And you are mistaken thinking that smartphone is doing something when is not been used....

Look how much things are depended of kernel:

Older Kernel=better power saving, and it's more than 10%.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] x86-Dark:
Installed Quorra r6+, very laggy 3D games. With NenaMark i got 35.0 fps :O...

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
man that game is sooooooooo addictive - love it :)

no lags here

must be something else

if you've lots of apps running in background try killing these since there might be negative interactions [some apps are misbehaving and causing the phone to lag while using other apps]

thanks ! :)

you tried Quorra r6+ interactive ?

I never get more than around 35 since recent changes [also with stock kernel]

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] OrionTC:
im currently using platypus quorra r6 kernal on the latest MIUI build MGv1

i noticed this kernal advertises voodoo sound, is this passively build into the software or do i have to do something to enable it?

how do you guys tweak your video recording based on this? on old samsung roms the mic gain was so high that it totally distorted when recording at gigs etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
system/etc/init.d/90screenstate_scaling

then change:

AWAKE_GOVERNOR="ondemand"

SLEEP_GOVERNOR="conservative"

to the governors that you like & reboot to apply them

e.g.

AWAKE_GOVERNOR="smartass"

SLEEP_GOVERNOR="smartass"

this will raise battery consumption - besides that it's not as great as interactive, ondemand or conservative

from my experience the combination I used (interactive + conservative; ondemand + conservative) is the optimum

I'll of course try to tweak those to get an even better experience with newer releases :)

thanks !

thanks for your feedback ImraanK ! :)

anything else (e.g. a misbehaving app) running in the background ?

or did anything else changed from R6 to R6+ interactive ?

thanks !

anyone ever thought that the higher drain might be due to the nightly and NOT the kernel ? :rolleyes:

every time the guys release a new nightly the sync with upstream [CM7 7.1*] - so it's bleeding edge and very probable that stuff might get better or worse with each update

:)

download Voodoo Control from the market :)

video recording & mic gain -> voodoo control or dsp manager, ...

FYI:

this kernel is also compatible with the nightly update from today (09/05)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Funnnny:
Here my test:

Clean install MIUI, format data,system,cache.

After boot reboot again.

Flash kernel, let system boot, wait for a while for it to load all app and return idle state, run Tap Tap, play "Waiting for the end" (man that's my favorite)

Tried R6+ and bilboa kernel. The game ran fine for three tests, but the r6+ run choppy at the beginning and sometime at the middle of the song, bilboa kernel ran fine from start to end.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
Dear Funnnny,

my bad :(

you need to play longer ;)

I've played 5 songs now and it happened for me during the 5th

you mean the short lagginess that let you miss the points ? - yeah that sucks

doesn't it happen with bilboa1's kernel at all ?

(e.g. if you play 10-20 songs in a row ^^ - that should be a good length to test)

from time to time I also get those "lags" with Gun Bros after playing it for several minutes but it's only short - this is usually due to writing stuff to the SSD or the system being busy emptying the RAM (or other system maintenance stuff)

I love Linkin Park too - longtime fan from them

their new songs have significantly changed from earlier albums but still love 'em

they found a new charactistic style :)

thanks !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
actually after trying zach's, glitch's and bilboa's, i also feel that bilboa's kernel (r12) is the smoothest of all (at the moment). However bilboa's has announced he will not continue his project....really hope someone else could pickup/refer to his project source code and improve it :)

Anyway I hope all other kernels will be improving in a daily basis towards a better CM7 kernel :D
