Don't know, if I'm really using the bln kernel with deep idle (having the one from 09.10. installed), but I was using my own modified script all the time, where these lines never were commented out.

I did not have a SOD or something similar, since 4 days of using it now, with smartassV2, overclocked to 1,2 ghz and undervolted every step (1200mhz -50, 100 mhz - 125)

The only problem, I am facing is, that sometimes my phone does not keep websites or opened tapatalk sites in ram, although there is ~80mb free.

Commenting out all the lines, which are affecting the cache pressure seems to be a little bit better for this kind of multitasking.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] guv.:
I use the deep idle test version of r18 that was posted here. No OC, no UV, ondemandb governor.

EDIT: I used r16 before I switched to r18 which had the scheduler tweaks enabled and I didn't have a single SOD. Maybe they don't work well with deep idle.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
this is still the question for me. which one is the one with deep idle? this is why I was triing to carry all information together at the last post of previous page
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] purpleraintoxicity:
I'm facing lot of fc all of a sudden ...

Starts after 2day with latest deep idle.

Moved to newer, still fc a lot.

Made cwm backup, then factory reset, then reflash and restore....

Still happening..

Any idea?

Deep Idle test builds are the attachments on the bottom of this post. I use the one with LED notification.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
no problem,

this release will be up longer as I need also feedback from vibrant + captivate users :)

btw:

if you'd like to try out with interactive governor:

see attachment

edit:

my bad :o

the new interactive governor isn't included at this early stage yet (I forgot !)

it will probably make it into the next test-kernel

edit2:

this kernel [IS compatible with MIUI] (no new sensor drivers included)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Decalc:
Hey zach first of all many thanks for your hard work! Expect a donation soon :)

I've tested the r2 with new interactive governor.. and it's running really smooth here. I did use the cleaning script before install and:

1. Did make a 30mins call (my girlfriend really likes to talk) and no reboot or any other problem.

2. I've no lags except in apps like voodoo sound (settings) i thinks that's MIUI related.

3. Auto rotation and sensors working just fine since the first boot.

4. Voodoo sound working just fine (needs more testing)

5. I'm on MIUI and SGS :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] barome:
With interactive on MIUI :

No bug excepted no sensors / auto rotation

very smooth, 3d seems improved (cause of interactive governor maybe)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] currydude:
Thank you zach for changing the screen off governor to convservative/interactive (before this I was changing screen off governor manually to convservative). It has definitely improved the experience with the device and as I mentioned before, it hasn't caused any dramatic changes to battery life and has allowed me to continue to listen to music while the screen is off (with powersave governor, there was the music would stop after about 5 minutes) Also, the lockscreen/screen turns on instantly now which is something which was very minor but I'm glad has been fixed. Furthermore, the screen turns on instantly for things like when people call which many times in the past has caused problems as I missed calls.

Excellent WORK ZACH and I too will be donating.

screen awake = interactive and screen off = conservative is AWESOME!

EDIT: RAM has also been a pleasure with no problems with multitasking. But looking at the RAM used and free it appears that there is only about 250mb RAM available to use for 3rd party apps (according to MIUI's task manager/Running Services) - forgive me if I'm wrong (I believe that the other ~250mb RAM is used for the OS? as there should be 512mb RAM in total) but I believe DamianGTO and Hardcore was able to allocated some of the system RAM into usable 3rd party app RAM and would like to make a request for this addition. (They were able to increase from 250mb RAM for 3rd party apps to 340/350mb)

The interactive kernel is working VERY nicely, best CM7 YET!, interactive definitely feels smooth/snappier than conservative.

LOLS I thought I ran out of awesome things to say about the latest kernel but OMG the graphic performance is even better now! :)

EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT!

Addition: It appears that "Google Goggles" is not longer working (was working before) and after opening Google Goggles (which force closes) my Camera app is no longer able to detect the camera (a simple reboot fixes the problem) but, again, it appears that "Google Goggles" is not working now :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] neferym:
+1. Rly nice !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
well everything is working perfectly. no noticeable lag no stability issues. all sensors working perfectly. going to try out the interactive governor now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] currydude:
Can you please test "Google Goggles" please. And then "after" that test the "Camera app." Camera is working but it appears that after upong Google Goggles (it force closes) then when I go to Camera app, I am unable to take pictures. A reboot is required.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] runedrune:
oh yeah i forgot to mention that. it wasn't working. but zach said he'd be adding new things step by step. so he probably hasn't gotten around to adding whatever it was that fixed that problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] currydude:
Ahh okay, no worries, I was just wondering if it kernel based. Thanks for the reply.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sn0wjie:

Thank you very much, Great Work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] currydude:
+ 1 Everything that is working very nicely (Battery life seems to have dramatically improved too!)

LOLS I just took my phone out of charger, it said "90%" and 10 minutes later I look at the battery indicator and it says 92%! LOLLS Probably just the slower due to the slower battery indicator refresh (which is good! :P)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lippol94:
Gonna try your R8 right now :) One question.. does it include that battery improvements you've added here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=13663288&highlight=battery+improvements#post13663288

Because it really improved battery! I mean 20% of battery more than usual today :)

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
now we're talking :)

yes, it includes those patches ^^

thanks !

@those having problems with bootloops, FCs, etc.:

I got those, too [the system bootlooping and looking for an update-nightly - WTF?]

besides that apps started to FC (starting with the browser) after a nightly update and after that progressively more and more apps FCing

the problem seems to be mostly system (but to a part perhaps als kernel) related

since my kernel uses very aggressive scheduler-settings and the Framebuffer, the filesystem, etc. have proved to be somewhat sensitive in regard to high-performance usage [from my experiences] that seems to trigger those issues [probably existant underneath] more easily

after I had done a factory-reset, re-installed the newest nightly, cleared /cache and dalvik cache

everything worked beautifully :p

please remember that CM7 / MIUI / Sense is basing on a unstable and moving target that you could call "CyanogenMod7 unstable branch" and the kernel itself is in development itself, too

you'll get a high-performance system for your phone with (potential) instabilities
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] currydude:
It is somewhat remotely possible to improve this stability? I just find it strange that every other kernel works. Also, I have formatted everything (system, data, datadata, cache, dalvik cache, the lot LOLS) and it still bootloops :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brunes:
I just installed this kernel on my i9000 and now my CWM recovery is broken.

- If I click the back soft-key, it does not select. Rather, it goes "up"

- If I click the middle hardware button, it does not select either. It also goes "up"

- Back soft key goes "down".

Basically I have no way to select any menu options. I will have to roll back a kernel using ODIN.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
This is standard behavior for this version of CWM.

Use the power button to select, the volume buttons to go up and down lists.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
yeah,

try the following attached kernel - the only change is the revert to previous scheduler settings,

governor is ondemand

so if that does NOT fix it

it IS clearly the underlying system & android infrastructure that is causing the problems

since all other changes I made since quorra-r6+_compass were towards stabilization

hope that kernel helps

thanks !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Funnnny:
This is the working kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
like I already wrote:

- the Framebuffer

- filesystem, etc.

on this kernel seem to be pretty sensitive / fragile in that regard

I had issues with it in the past

for e.g. half of users and use-cases it worked fine & faster than ever

but for the other half it led to reboots, FCs, etc.

the same applies to the "core low-latency" kernel release which uses more tight scheduler-timings

I also attempted to port & get the "[PATCH v4] sched: automated per session task groups" running but it also showed the same behavior

so we're pretty limited in terms of tuning :(

the SGS II certainly won't have these issues since it can use >=2.6.38 kernels with mainlined drivers

but I won't get near that in the near future :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jazzza:
Installed quorra r8 330mb yesterday, very long boot, 10+ minutes, wifi don't working even after clearing dalvik cache and reboot.

But when init.d scripts was deleted by lippo94 cleaning zip - wifi works fine, boot fast, phone works ok at 1200mhz.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kashortiexda:
Zach

r8 ondemand boots up in less than a minute, seems very smooth so far.

got it on cfq, ondemand 100-1000, uv by 50 and rock solid so far - everything seems to be working.

Battery at 96% so I'll report back on battery usage and test more functions.

So far for me, your kernals have been the best compromise between stability, speed and battery ( as you say - a perfect world ! ) Thanks.

RAM 160MB in use, 142 free at the moment in idle ( no apps running )

Looking forward to MIUI Friday - you dev's certainly make this phone amazing - we appreciate the hard work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
It is best practice to always run that zip before swapping kernels...saves you a lot of headaches down the line.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
ok, troubleshooting:

- bootloops

- FCs

- phone acting erratically

---> you're one of those whose phone and/or system can't handle the faster scheduler timings

open the kernel update package (zip-file) and in system/etc/init.d/89system_tweak search for:

the line

"# TWEAKS: improve handling & reactivity of the CFS cpu scheduler (from 90screenstate_scaling)"

below:

# CFS

replace the following 3 lines with the following

then try to re-install the kernel

hopefully it should work now

since these are the more stable CFS (cpu)-scheduler values you won't experience such a smooth UI

that means - you want a similar experience ?

you need to compensate that with a different

governor

(if not already using interactive)

or

overclocking
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
you read the 3 posts above your last post ?

;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] legolas93:
noob question. :D

Why can't we have a 2.6.38 kernel?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jazzza:
Ofc!

Just reporting for statistic ;)

i'm using phone with kernel, but without scripts, no problems at all, will test new versions tomorrow.

thanks for your great work!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thunderteaser:
Hey Zach, here's my feedback on r8 ondemand and MIUI MGv4 with no OC/UV:

smoother than r7 ondemand (but r6+ was better), in-app scrolling is a bit laggy (e.g. Voodoo Control App), games hanging for a sec sometimes (but sound keeps on playing). Tried 720p recording but the video was stuttering a lot (just like a badly written frame index).

EDIT: The first time I tried catching a video, the phone shut itself off after ~30 sec recording.

Then I tried quorra r8 interactive version and also reverted cfq settings as you explained:

I can't determine whether the overall smoothness is better than ondemand or not... sometimes it is, sometimes it's slower. 720p recording gave better results, still not perfect but I prefer the interactive version rather than ondemand.

I think I would get better results with overclocking, but my phone is not very UV friendly (hangs @1200 MHz / -25 V on high usage) and I really care about battery life, so maybe higher kernel ticks would help? :confused:

And by the way, what are the default kernel HZ you're using?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rezou:
You should try quorra r8 smartass version. The smoothest so far for me ;).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jornbjorn:
Agree. Smartass is insanely smooth.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alerems:
Zach!

Set ur settings in system_tweak and it caused.. very big battery drainage. Samething like 9% in 40 mins. :( No using for this time at all. Will try the kernel, that u put on the previous page.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] guv.:
Ok, so either the smartass governor is keeping your phone alive or I should seriously consider overclocking and undervolting my phone, too ... for more stability :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] {Angel}:
Actually going by zachs changelog of 09.10 to 10.10, 09.10 still is undervolted by 25 mV in 1000 Mhz which was apparently a cause of SODs in stock CM kernel. At least for me in CM I used to have SODs with stock kernel until this change went it. We would need a version with the 25mV bump and deep idle to more properly test
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
maybe, this is the answer for the slow speed of sd card, by using neo xx or other kernels, which are newer than 2.6.35

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,8875

does anyone know something about it?

just tried it. Seems like it does not fix the issue with low transfer speed for the new kernels, or I was doing it wrong.

I've put this to the beginning of systemtwek script:

setprop ro.vold.umsdirtyratio 20

after booting and entring this:

getprop ro.vold.umsdirtyratio

the answer was 20. So, I suppose the value is applied correct, but the transfer speed stays low.

Now I´m going back to 17 r18. Someone else could try it ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] guv.:
Voltage Control shows 1275 mV for the 1000 Mhz step, so the fix is allready included.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
the builds are always going forward,

there weren't any changes in 17 r8 that would interfere with stability,

r9 will be faster than r9 again (out of the box) but less aggressive [should still be comparable]

exactly :)

if it's not at 1275 overclocking by +25 mV via e.g. Voltage Control

is a temporary "fix" to find out whether that improves stability

nice find - thanks !

from my understanding the value is set to "0" when usb is connected

and that revert is going to be reverted

so that stays default (depending on what is set)

but I also could be wrong, will take a look next time when I dedicate time towards kernel devs [tomorrow]

If I disconnect the call and get again it works.

If I'm calling someone its all good.

Tried to change modem, no change.

Using my fav modem that always worked for me (kc1/jv7) and still having this problem.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AlexandreT:
I'm running the latest R18 kernel and I cannot access recovery.

When I try to access recovery (3 buttons) the boot screen loops a bit between platypus and cyanogenMod and then proceeds into loading the rom (which is working fine).

Funny thing is that I can access download mode, just recovery isn't working. I also tried using an app to enter recovery but it also didn't work and ended up loading the rom instead.

Any ideas on how I can access recovery?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
I do not really know, but I suppose, I would try to make a tar file with stock cm kernel, and flash it via odin. maybe it will bring you recovery back. also possible, that recovery will be fine, but rom is not working any more.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AlexandreT:
That's exactly what I did. I used a CM kernel I had stored for just such situations. With access to recovery restored I updated the rom and everything is back to normal.

Did this happen to anyone else? Can other people with R18 access recovery?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
nope, works fine here :)

the dark ages of the phone not booting into recovery, resulting in a black screen [== defunct recovery] or turning off when trying to reboot into recovery should be a thing of the past ^^

no idea, what's the cause for your trouble

any special phone ?

i9000M ? Telus Fascinate ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AlexandreT:
My phone it's the international i9000 8gb. I've had since June 2010 and have been modding it ever since. It's actually the first time I was unable to access recovery. The strange thing was that there was some sort of looping between the platypus boot screen and the samsung/CM boot screen (3 times) before finally going into the rom, instead of the recovery. This doesn't happen in a normal boot.

If this was just on my phone then something must have gotten corrupted or was not properly installed when I last flashed this kernel. So, no worries.

Thanks for the help.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] purpleraintoxicity:

you have to delete the audio files for this by yourself. the function was build in, but never worked, because of legal restrictions in some countries.
