It looks like the most recent updates to this kernel breaks some of the Samsung video codecs that are installed on JVB Continuum. I first upgraded to 0.1.5 when it was released and I know for sure that playback of a DIVX3 video will output just sound, no video.

I'm not sure what other codecs are affected, but I just confirmed it by playing a DIVX3 video just fine on a fresh install of Continuum 5 RC3 upgraded to Talon 0.1.4. I then upgraded to 0.1.5 using Odin3 without any other changes at all and the video will only have sound. The video output is null and I have no idea why. Even after downgrading back down to 0.1.4, the issue still persists. I have to completely install a wipe ROM in order to playback the videos. Continuum 5.1 has the same problem with the same kernel.

During this whole process I had an MKV encoded in h.264 that played just fine every time so the issue seems to only affect certain codecs.

Just want to say thanks again!

I'm getting a 2400 quadrant score on Mosaic I with ext4
[Captivate Android Development] Doug8796:
sorry for *****ing i know its not easy. Ill def pp if u get it working, and I really do appreciate your work.. Just no reason to switch to JVB from CM7 until higher OC :P

Have you tried this - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=13442003#post13442003
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
What kind of logic do you use with flashing ROM's? The performance and battery life of JVB smokes CM7 on the Captivate, not to mention the functionality and features of Samsung's framework like smooth 720p MKV and FLAC playback. CM7 in turn offers somewhat easier UI customization.
[Captivate Android Development] gabby131:
I believe the option on the link is already on the tweaks app.

EDIT: nah.....nvm.....
[Captivate Android Development] ou812bkewl:
Yes. Changing the build.prop didn't help at all.
[Captivate Android Development] Doug8796:
That may be true but CM7 runs games faster including the Dreamcast Emulator I am alpha testing as well as N64 emu and Dungeon Defenders as well as basic benchmarks. Best thing ive seen since froyo roms
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
So you *have* tested this against CM7? Your post sounded like you weren't going to flash this yet.

Use Rock Player for now. It has software codecs that work with everything.

for games 1.2 ghz in JVB is like 1ghz in 2.2..and also in benchmarks the 3d score dosent even cross 800 in jvb even after OC to 1.2ghz in froyo it was 900+ without OC and 1100 with OC 1.2ghz

Running great with GR-X rom. Pretty sure this is a kernel issue since I've encountered it before, but if I leave music paused while phone is asleep, headphone button won't resume playback as it did with previous kernels like Onix. Any chance this can be looked into?
[Captivate Android Development] welchertc:
Just installed this alongside Mosaic, and must say I'm really impressed. Nice work Devs. Before flashing this I was scoring mid-1300's in quadrant. Now I'm averaging 2400 with the conversion to EXT4. Not that benchmarks mean everything, but it's nice to see. I'm OC'd to 1200 with -75 UV on every level, and my phone is stable as ever. Phone is also snappy as hell, couldn't be happier with my gingerbread experience so far.

Would it be possible to add a root phone and install busybox option like speedmod had in 2.2. Somehow I lost root when I installed C5.1 yesterday so it would be nice to have that option in recovery.

After updating to 1.5 I notice a graphics glitch when scrolling up or down on the bottom left corner. Can anyone confirm this. When back to 1.2 and the problem it's gone.
[Captivate Android Development] shane87:
I have noticed the same thing. If I leave music paused for more than a few seconds, headphone buttons will not un-pause it. Btw, I am on perception ii beta 2, with talon 0.1.4 (I am planning on flashing 0.1.5 today) and using the meridian music player.

I was having issue with this, but it also would not answer a phone call. I was on Onix 1.0.5 with Firefly 3.0.

Reinserting headset into the port was the fix for me. Not sure its the same issue and I could not figure out exactly how to reproduce it.

Now on Mosiac I and about to flash Talon.
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
I'd recommend the new MoboPlayer over RockPlayer. The performance is significantly better (even better than VPlayer) and it's free with no watermark. Not sure how many formats it supports though (definitely MKV and I'm pretty sure DIVX as well).

I'm not experiencing that at all. I'm benching significantly higher in JVB vs 2.2 at both 1GHz and 1.2GHz, and emulators are smoother for me in JVB.

Are you talking about headphones with iphone compatible controls on them? Basically a single button on the headphone cable. If so I'm guessing those are compatible. Had a hunch from hearing this before but was not entirely sure.
[Captivate Android Development] chinesedevil:
just wondering, does this kernel automatically enable lagfix (ext4)?

if so, how do we disable it. hmm bt doesnt seem to work for me on mosaic, maybe others have same issue.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
No, convert to either ext4 or back to rfs with the ext4 app that's linked in the OP :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] chinesedevil:
thanks studacris, you're always a great help on the forums. :)

bt doesn't work for me on talon, so i guess ill stick to the kernel that comes with stock mosaic.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Thanks, but if you had read the OP I wouldn't have needed to be ;p

No offense ... Just sayin'...
[Captivate Android Development] chinesedevil:
wow how"d i miss the convert to ext4 link haha.

i read most of the OP but cant believe i missed that :facepalm::D
[Captivate Android Development] shane87:
No. I am talking about the headphones that shipped with my device. They have three buttons. In call, they work as vol up, vol down, and end call, in that order from top of mic to bottom of mic. When I am playing music, all three do the same thing. One click pauses. A quick double click advances to next song. A slow double click restarts song, or goes to previous song if already at the beginning of song.

Bluetooth works fine for me on Perception and Continuum, haven't tried Mosaic... but Bluetooth does work ..

Also need more info than it just doesn't work...
[Captivate Android Development] chinesedevil:
as far as I can tell, it tries to start up but doesn't. this is the standard 0.1.5 btw.

EDIT: HMMMM, reflashed it from reorient and now bt works, weird... wonder what happend...

maybe a bad flash, anyways now that it works im happy! :o
[Captivate Android Development] alexige:
Oh so only the stock headphone's controls will work? Bummer. Would've been cool if the iPhone compatible ones somehow worked.

Sorry for getting off track.
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
Maybe a rom issue? Works fine here, but there were reports of something similar with early builds of continuum, but has since been fixed by icezar.. Also works with Perception beta 1&2..

EDIT

Well nevermind, glad its working ...
[Captivate Android Development] mindbullet:
So is the Stochastic Fair Blue (SFB) network scheduler something that is part of GB kernels normally or is it a feature you added? I read up some about it and it sounds really awesome for wireless devices in general.
[Captivate Android Development] ChikiBujia:
Bluetooth works great with Mosaic and Talon :D
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
I was having the same issue. After re-flashing the ROM a few times, I finally figured out that when I restored my

non-system

apps with TiBu (I never restore system apps/data), one of them was keeping BT from starting.

I can't tell you which one, just that I restored the most likely suspects without data, and then ran the "Restore missing apps with data" batch (there's no batch for "without data), and BT is still working.
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
I added it manually
[Captivate Android Development] CuriousTech:
I think that's where a lot of strange bug reports come from. Only use "Restore all apps with data" then hit "Deselect All" and manually go through the entire list selecting only apps you recognize as 3rd party. This is especially important when going from one Android version to another. You can also do it multiple times with "Apps Only" or "Apps+Data" and look at versions. Skip anything that's 2.2.1 or 2.2 and google the name if you're not sure or just leave those for later. And don't restore system data from another Android verison. TiBu doesn't know about OS versions and doesn't do any converting.
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
I tried to emphasize (twice) that I wasn't restoring any system apps. I didn't realize I had to specify non-system, third party apps (a.k.a. "user" apps when filtering in TiBu).

Probably because that's redundant.
[Captivate Android Development] CuriousTech:
I've learned not to make any assumptions. :p

Some system apps get mixed in and if users don't go through and double-check, they can easily be missed or mistaken for 3rd party. I'm not saying that's what you did though.
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
I have 2 pairs of 'iPod-compatible' headphones with inline mic+button, and both work fine on my Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] airbillion:
I have the same problem. Anyone else?
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
Can you be more specific? What issue are you having when scrolling?
[Captivate Android Development] shane87:
I am having an issue with audio playback. I am not sure if it is kernel related or voodoo snd related, so I will post it in both forums. While listening to music, if I skip ahead or backward in the tracklist using the headphone controls, the next song will start extremely loud, then the volume will drop to what I have it set to. I thought at first it was an issue with my media player, but I experience the same thing on three different players. I did not experience this until I upgraded talon 0.1.4 to talon 0.1.5. Any help would be appreciated!!

[EDIT]I fixed the issue by forceing analog vol keys. And I actually think doing that makes the sound clearer.[/EDIT]

Has anyone had issues getting the game Pew Pew to work? I'm on .1.5 bigmem. Something of interest is that when I go to close the game, in the task manager it will say that the game is using massive amounts of cpu cycles. I've tried all the other games I have that are 3-D intensive and have not had any issues.
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
I'm not experiencing any issues. Is this a visual thing, or do you mean the touch scrolling is acting up on that part of the screen?
[Captivate Android Development] goob1284:
is anyone else getting some serious battery drain? i mean i just lost 17% in 30 minutes
[Captivate Android Development] drwx:
sure there is.... do the "restore missing apps with data"... then it takes you to the page with all of your apps listed and you have the options of "app only" "app+data" and "data only".

Is it normal for the phone to take about 1 full second to turn on after pressing the power button?
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
Awesome Job on this kernel!

One question: Can we get a non-OC version of this kernel?

My phone cannot handle the 1.2 GHz without UV settings, and they will not stick after reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Existz said that 0.1.6 will be 1000mhz by default, still will have oc, but not "out of the box"

[Captivate Android Development] existz:
set max clock to 1ghz with no UV and see if it still does it (1.2ghz is by default..atleast until 0.1.6 comes out)
[Captivate Android Development] grkmaster:
What if he sets some uv with 1.2? In froyo with your OC, 1.2 wo UV wasnt working well for me until I did some UVing
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
If it doesnt do it with max clock at 1ghz and no UV, then its not the kernel causing it..its an unstable oc/uv ..so even with 1.2ghz with UV, if he cant handle 1.2ghz, it will still crash..easiest way is to just set it to stock settings (1ghz no UV) to rule out a kernel issue
[Captivate Android Development] grkmaster:
makes sense - someone in irc was having issues with 1.2ghz and going to websites and phone would reboot, i mentioned to him to put -50 for UVing and he told me he put it intense use and it solved his problem.
[Captivate Android Development] p1gnone:
Great work. But as a noob let me ask if you can build a version that incorporates TaintDroid code. Recall the news last fall of a monitoring tool for apps signaling back to app owners various spy info. Apparently there is no app, but kernel level code for this monitoring tool.

Not sure if it's GR-12 or the kernel or CF-Tweak, the OC/UV settings do not stick after reboots... I've cleared the voltage settings in CWM before booting up and re-do the settings and reboots... still missing after reboots.
[Captivate Android Development] existz:

I checked my SU log, and saw that VoltageControl was all over it. It seems it was asking for root permission every time the CPU changed states and it seemed it was creating havoc in some of the other apps as well, including the browser. As soon as I told SU to "forget" VC, some apps and the launcher got much snappier. I now have SetCPU controlling my CPU frequency, and to heck with UV for now... plus the settings stay through a reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
That's a rom issue...but usually you can use root explorer or similar and edit it..or SGS Tools use to let you manually edit build prop

I have had this issue on 1.4 and 1.5 as well. Most recently with 1.5 last night before class while listening to music in the hall it started doing the same thing. Phone was in my pocket. Had to using vol-up+power to get in recovery again. Flashed Dark Core 2.1 and still have yet to have the audio issues i have had on pretty much every kernel besides Dark Core 2.1. What's more, Dark Core 2.2 has audio issues like what Talon used to and that xcal's currently still has for me(random popping/skipping). It is worth noting that I don't have any other audio issues like in the past on Talon 1.3+, I have just had this weird audio while phone is sleeping pop up.

But when I wake my device from sleep, it takes a full 1 second before the screen powers on. I don't remember it taking so long, but maybe I just never noticed.
[Captivate Android Development] shane87:
It is normal for VoltageControl to show 10-15 SU requests each time you load it up. Each time it makes a request with the SU shell, it has to get SU rights again. Since there are several files that it has to access with SU priveleges, each time it loads from a file or writes to a file, it asks for SU. I am working on a re-write designed for Talon kernel, and I am going to try to cut back on the number of SU requests.

If you are having SU requests from VC/VCEX when it is NOT running, it is most likely due to VC/VCEX not being properly unloaded from memory. If you just hit the "back" button, there is no guarantee that it will kill the process. However, if you press "Menu > More > Exit" it will call the finish() function, which lets Android know the process is ready for termination. This will make Android unload it from memory as soon as possible, and will cause Android to completely stop execution of the process.

After a lot of reading and a bit of testing, it seems that 0.1.3 is the most stable version of TalonDEV available, but the messed up colors from the refresh rate are a dealbreaker for me. Perhaps existz and other devs could take a look at changes between 0.1.3 and later versions to solve the bugs in the current release.
