[LG Optimus 2x] traxxus:
With vorkKErnel i have alwasy the black screen bug. Phone doesnt wake up or it freezes when call is ending.

options: -silent
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
At least yours bootup. I flashed vorkkernel and mine just hang at initial boot screen with the word LG, just like the old days when vorkkernel just came about. Oh well ....
[LG Optimus 2x] traxxus:
Hm that's bad.

But imo, i can't find pros compared to stock CM7 kernel...
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I can't even compare it...
[LG Optimus 2x] Harsh:
Same with me too, but there is PLUS in these LG devices too, never have reboot issues. Hope yours is also not giving you any reboot problems.

mine is 103 Serial phone, which were at release of O2X.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kelvino9:
I always have that problem unfortunately it is totally random on my phone so Ican't reproduce it, but it always happens somehow.

Also battery drain is very high compared to stock Kernel. I use DrainGuard to measure the battery drain
[LG Optimus 2x] zerocoolriddler:
Never had any Problems with Vorkkernel. No Reboots, no Blackscreens, all functional.

Anybody who has Problems with it should try a clean install of CM.

If you came from clean CM, try "Wipe Dalvik Cache" in Recovery->Advanced...;)

It´s important for every Kernel-Change.
[LG Optimus 2x] jay_snake:
Time for a new update ;) Why? Finally the GPS issues (losing signal when screen is off) seems fixed in the new kernel for CM7 :D
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Should work with MIUI, but AFAIK no one has tested it yet.

But if you feel lucky, then go ahead and test it :D

Incase it doesn't boot you'll have to wipe data and system, before flashing back MIUI.

Can you get a logcat of it happening? I can't really help fix this issue without proper documentation. It also seems to only happen on some devices

I would love to help you with that (If I can). You only reach the Black and White one right?

Strange, seems vorkKernel runs better on some devices than on others. My battery life is substancially better with vorkKernel than on stock CM. Do you use overclocking? If yes that might be the cause. But since your complaining I don't think you do.

Yes, that is very important indeed!

A new update is in the oven. This one with a nice linux version bump from v2.6.32.41 to v2.6.32.44 which should also give some minor improvements, in performance and stuff
[LG Optimus 2x] Ph4nt0m_:
I tried to flash vork with ext4 flag on MIUI but id didn't boot, so I guess it doesn't work...
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Yup stuck at black and white of LG screen just like the early days of vorkkernel, till somehow benee fixed it and I was running vorkkerbel for awhile. Not tried vorkkernel for sometime but recently tested it and got stuck like early days.....again.
[LG Optimus 2x] jay_snake:
Great news. The new GPS commit for the CM7 kernel is also in that new update?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Okay, could you get me the contents of init.rc and init.p990.rc in a MIUI rom? With that I could make it work. I think.

Hmm, strange. ANy chance of you remember around what version date it broke for you?

Not yet, but I'll pull it in a sec :D
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Okay, looked at them, and formulated something that (might) be a fix.

It'll come with next version
[LG Optimus 2x] Ph4nt0m_:
Great. I will try it when it will be released ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Ancalagon_ZA:
Are you also going to revert the NVRM changes added from v10E? Any idea why they were reverted?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
I have no idea at this time, and we wont revert it until why know why it was done
[LG Optimus 2x] Darkje:
Say Kiljacken if i may ask,

It seems that 20110721 on Miui gives us led notification and 20110802 dont.

Dit you change something, that can be reverted ?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Something was changed in the CM led system, and as MIUI is based on CM, it will get the corresponding fixes sometime soon with a.new built. We will not revert it, as currently CM is our main concern
[LG Optimus 2x] jay_snake:
Great, looking forward to it. Can you give us on ETA?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
No, not really. Me and Benee are currently working "hard" on getting a v2.6.39 kernel out for the Xoom. So maybe soon, depends on how smoothly the port goes
[LG Optimus 2x] philstar:
very nice to hear! *thumbsup*

thx for the great job, you're doing!
[LG Optimus 2x] mauaus:
Cant wait for the new version to come out, great job!
[LG Optimus 2x] Notorious544d:
Hi there kiljacken.

Is it possible for you to port svceon's optimized drivers to your kernel? His EternityProject Kernel has a significant increase in 3D tests, even without GPU overclock: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-e1RH7ebbE

In the video, the fps hovers around the 70 mark while other kernels are around 40.

Thanks in advance.
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
svceon made a kernel? EternityProject was developed by kholk and the "optimized driver" were a big rip off. Sorry to say that but most stuff just was cherrypicked and not enabled because it results in compile errors. One commit was causing graphic glitches and yeah this was increasing performance. But do you want strange lines appearing everywhere? Additionally you can't optimize drivers which are 80% closed source -.-

Hrm marketing is everything :D
[LG Optimus 2x] Notorious544d:
Oh right OK, thanks for clarifying.
[LG Optimus 2x] Notorious544d:
What scores does Optimus 2X get with this kernel on the An3dbenchXL 3D GPU benchmark test? I want to know how much more powerful the GPU is OC while compared to stock.

Thanks in advance!
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Latest kernel is based on the CM kernel which is 2.6.32.40
[LG Optimus 2x] manciu:
Ok kiljacken, only one think. I've seen that with cm7.20 integrated kernel web surfing is more smooth than with yours... I'm unable to understand how is possible... :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
The only real difference between vorkKernel and the CM kernel is OC/UV and some optimizations, and web surfing is real smooth for me using the latest vorkKernel
[LG Optimus 2x] manciu:
I use Opera Mobile and I make a fast test opening www.telefonino.net page then scroll it up and down. I found only 2 kernels lag free: paul's mcr10 and the cm7.20 one... With yours all the system seems to be smoother but internet experience is worse than others two kernels... :confused:

But I seen also that if I flash vorkKernel on a cm7.20, browser start to lag, then i reflash cm7.20 rom but, system don't return to give a fluid internet experience...

Sorry for the speech contortion... :p
[LG Optimus 2x] frapaa:
How come I get 500 points less in Quadrant with this kernel applied to WGSpoelstra's Gingerbread Edition v1.7.1, based on CM7 .20, even with the sqlite patch..?
[LG Optimus 2x] unfnknblvbl:
build 20 didn't contain an updated kernel though? The last update was in build 18.
[LG Optimus 2x] :
That is really weird.. Because this is the same kernel as in my ROM, and the SQlitepatch is also already in my ROM.. So Quadrant scores should be the same!
[LG Optimus 2x] frapaa:
Hm, I have no clue what's going on there, but it is quite consistent. I can reproduce it every time:

Enter recovery

Flash your ROM (which is awesome btw)

Flash the kernel

Flash the SQLite path

Reboot

Does the 1.7.1 ROM include the very _latest_ version of the kernel? Or did I perhaps use an older version by mistake? I'll check the version numbers of the kernels I've used, just in case :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
yay update! We finally fixed the toolchain. Now we're using a linaro gcc as base. Cam error is fixed... with the disadvantage of no 1080p recording but 64mb ram hack!

Usual download link as always.

As a special we have githubbed the compile script for vorkKernel and the toolchain here. No complete instruction yet, but it will follow shortly ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] sacredsoul:
Just tried it. Works awesome with nightly 21. Guess I could live without 1080p for a while too. lol. Thanks man. Great job as always!
[LG Optimus 2x] mauaus:
But 1080p fix is coming?
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
The problem is, that either we're too stupid to find the drivers :D or the drivers are closed source in userspace and only a small interface in the kernel to load them. So we can't really change a lot of stuff and I think LG cranked the ram allocated to the gpu up to 128MB, because the cam is using this ram bank too. So 1080p needs more ram. In the end we have the choice between more free ram or 1080p recording. I think more free ram is the better deal - When did you record a vid with you phone and is 1080p necessary? The sensor is too bad, that 1080p would look very good. So 720p is enough imo.
[LG Optimus 2x] baliriot:
good point... learning is fun!!!:D flashing now...
[LG Optimus 2x] sunstorm:
Good job both! My O2X is flying again ^_^
[LG Optimus 2x] LeJay:
What about bit-rate though? It seems 720p bitrate is higher than on stock. How would I go about changing this (up or down), would I need to compile my own kernel or?
[LG Optimus 2x] mauaus:
Just installed the latest and for some reason Pimp my CPU doesnt recognize the kernel

Edit: Im on the latest KANG release, everything is working fine but cant OC/UV using Pimp my Cpu
[LG Optimus 2x] LeJay:
And, of course, you read the entire first post in this thread regarding known issues? :p
[LG Optimus 2x] emprize:
how can i choose 1080 and 720 when recording?
[LG Optimus 2x] wc326:
does this work on Modaco rom??
[LG Optimus 2x] dondavis007:
A good tip, use Pauls romkithen and bake it in. I think the tweak is already there.
[LG Optimus 2x] imayoda81:
maybe i've found bug.. actual version + rc1 led lights notification are gone.. don't know if it was notified before.. just tellin :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Leon_V6:
Hi there,

I got 38k in this benchmark with vorkkernel at 1,4Ghz
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Yeah, the reason led notifications are gone is because the kernel-side interface changed. It'll work again in next RC/Release. Or you could use the nightlies, if really want the led notifcations
[LG Optimus 2x] Notorious544d:
How many fps did you get with each test?

Sorry for being so demanding. :p
[LG Optimus 2x] NickHu:
Does this commit effectively obsolete the internal flag? Also, the 725 baseband is out and a ril is available.
[LG Optimus 2x] fry92:
Are you going to include the 32mb ram hack in future releases?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Yeah it will, so the internal flag will be removed. Also that ril was added about a week ago to vorkKernel, so it'll make it in to next release :D

No, we won't. Too much pain, not enough gain
[LG Optimus 2x] xIceCream:
when will be the next release ? :)

and which baseband and ril will be best suite this kernel ?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
The update will come as soon as we finish up our Xoom kernel :D
[LG Optimus 2x] xIceCream:
um, u haven answer my 2nd question.. which baseband and ril ? :D
[LG Optimus 2x] MillyMoo106:
it supports all rils (lets you choose). your baseband is unaffected by Roms and Kernels so it's up to youuu
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
I don't really know a lot about basebands and RIL's to be honest. My guess, would be to stick with the one your device came with
[LG Optimus 2x] xIceCream:
thanks guys ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Leon_V6:
Check benchmark list,number 92 ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Notorious544d:
Sorry I don't know what you mean. I'm a noob.:o
[LG Optimus 2x] chudm:
guys everytime i try to flash this with cm7 lastest nightly i got problems with noises during calls... any suggestion?
[LG Optimus 2x] ranrick:
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/lge-kernel-star/commit/041c35e66e19f599d365649971f1bc384e9cf976

CM changes, guess theres an update in short time
[LG Optimus 2x] lws803:
Approximately when would the new vork kernel be out? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] smokeweedevery:
how's it going with the kernel porting project. can you to make it work:)
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Merged with our sources :D

Idk, but soon.

Benee gave up, at least for the time being, and he is currently looking at the kernel changes in the gingerbread drop for the G2x
[LG Optimus 2x] Ancalagon_ZA:
There's a gingerbread code drop for the G2x?
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
@ benee & kiljacken,

today's kernel commits by aremcee fixes most of touch screen issue, and my hack is no longer needed.

please remove my hack and update w/ aremcee's commits.

thanks for having supported my kernel hack.
[LG Optimus 2x] ranrick:
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/lge-kernel-star/commits/android-tegra-2.6.32

cant w8 for all these updates in your awesomekernel :)
[LG Optimus 2x] -Howard-:
Looking forward to a nice new kernel update ;) hopefully its not to far away :)
[LG Optimus 2x] jonas9000:
Installed Vorkkernel updater, but where can i find app/program ? Not in appdrawer !
[LG Optimus 2x] -Howard-:
Well it should be in the app draw
[LG Optimus 2x] jonas9000:
I have uninstalled it and installed it again, no icon in apps ??
[LG Optimus 2x] ranrick:
reload luncher andere reboot cellphone.
[LG Optimus 2x] jonas9000:
I made a launcher restart, no result. Cellphone restart not possible, i will loose my mobile net (no service), CM7 problem i have, must do a factory reset every time i update CM7 now days.
[LG Optimus 2x] jonas9000:
After a couple of install/uninstall i got it right, the icon in app´s are there !! Next problem: when i run download/install kernel, it download then reboot in recovery. When up again nothing is flashed ? I read the logg, ABORT....... So everytime i make a reboot, my SD card is not mounted right. Sometime you can make a pull out and pull in, but when flashing kernel everything goes to quick for the out/in operation. HELP ! How to make phone recognize SD direct after reboot ????
[LG Optimus 2x] ranrick:
what CWM have you installed?
[LG Optimus 2x] -Howard-:
Turn on manual flashing the go to file explorer and get the file and place it in your external SD since it sounds like you have a recovery that reads the external SD.
[LG Optimus 2x] jonas9000:
I have 4.0.0.9 !
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Will do

I can't either xD Benee is currently working on them :)

Shouldn't be too far away
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
Update isn't too far away. But I changed something and it needs more testing. Just as a small update from my site. But limited time for deving something.. still not moved to new city. Pretty busy with working on new flat : /
[LG Optimus 2x] -Howard-:
No problem take your time :) best to have a functioning kernel not a broken one... theres no huge rush dude.
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
Hehe ;)

I have some time on sunday to do some deving. Updated the kernel today. Or kiljacken is doing it before I can get some time for it :D (broad hint to kiljacken) *cough*
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Sorry to disappoint you guys, but I haven't got time to roll out an update before (soonest) late on Sunday. Going to a family reunion with only few people I actually know.
[LG Optimus 2x] SimDroid:
**** them? XDA is your new family
[LG Optimus 2x] ranrick:
daddy :)

(10 chars)
[LG Optimus 2x] Notorious544d:
Can you give us a teaser of what's to come?:D
[LG Optimus 2x] xxdoggyxx:
Yea. Haha, or a oc2ghz surprise? hehe:)

cheers:D
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
The oc code received a big improvement and isn't so crappy anymore. But I don't want to spoil everything. Surprise :D
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Cool, the newest version allows me to run the CPU at 456Mhz without UI lag O_o
[LG Optimus 2x] Notorious544d:
That's nice. I prefer UC rather than OC because OC is placebo and UC increases battery life.
[LG Optimus 2x] imayoda81:
UC/UV is good for the juice reserve, ye

but OC/OV is not placebo, it's speed...

find the perfect mixture between governors, OC and UC and you'll get the most efficient device ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Notorious544d:
The speed gain becomes lower the higher you clock. So above 1Ghz, it gives uneeded speed at a big battery drain cost. That's my personal view.;)
[LG Optimus 2x] imayoda81:
then go buy sgs2.. it's factory overclocked to 1.2GHz :D
[LG Optimus 2x] smokeweedevery:
you dont save so much power with UC/UV, mine cpu speed is always on 1100 or 1200, and i always have more then 2 days of power
[LG Optimus 2x] Notorious544d:
But SGS2 CPU is clocked @ 1Ghz. Samsung custom OC'ed to 1.2Ghz hence the overheating problems.
[LG Optimus 2x] imayoda81:
agree.. I don't like heavy overclock as it needs heavy overvoltage, but 1,2Ghz is good ..

remember that you're device isn't keeping that freq. for long times as there is some scaling ..

I'd like to say that often smartphone's arm processors have too many scales between min power and maximum power..

So, I'm asking devs, isn't there a way to exclude futile freqs like 600MHz ? switching to higher freq. from lower one doesn't really need all those steps .. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] ranrick:
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/lge-kernel-star/commits/android-tegra-2.6.32

new CM changes ^^
[LG Optimus 2x] imayoda81:
they raised the default freq. when there was evidence that tegra2 would eat it at only 1Ghz.. merchandising tecnique :D :D
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Hey guys!

I am back again!

Just thought you guys would like to know xD

Now I'm just awaiting Benee contact me about his latest wicked experiments xD
[LG Optimus 2x] smokeweedevery:
^ good to have you back;)

so we will get a update today when you have the last things?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Maybe, I'll have to ask Benee
[LG Optimus 2x] Notorious544d:
LOL. O2X ftw:D
[LG Optimus 2x] -sandro-:
What version of the kernel does the CM7 nighties use?

Is it recommended to use this one if I don't care about overclock but just better performance?
[LG Optimus 2x] unfnknblvbl:
Nah, the Exynos CPU in the SGS2 wipes the floor with Tegra 2 on a clock-for-clock comparison. They probably raised it just to differentiate from the rest of the 1GHz dual-core crowd.
[LG Optimus 2x] imayoda81:
bull****.. look the evidence

http://www.mysamsungwave.com/index.php?topic=6173.0

leaving .32 kernel should even improve performances..
[LG Optimus 2x] ergoen:
depends on the situation of course, those benchmarks seem to slightly favour the tegra 2 yes.

Software-decoding videos on the other hand, well, I cannot get 720p to work without lag even when overclocking my o2x to 1.4 ghz, a friends sgs2 can software-decode 720p with no probs on stock 1.2 ghz frequency.
[LG Optimus 2x] imayoda81:
Hd players depend on many libs and "software" like codecs etc...

sunspider gives a better idea of the pure calculation power, as it is less software and platform dependent.. (hw all my movies are working good on dual.. stock was better indeed and qqplayer was for those nasty mkv format :) )

plus, exynos runs on ginger platform and kernel.. tegra would have a great boost from a major kernel..

plus, mali400 and geforce ulv are not comparable.. (just think at all those Samsung products like tabs and smartphones, using tegra rather then self produced SoC.. cost effective performances)

all people should talk about "real" improvements over SGS2, like amoled and things so on.. the cpu isn't at all that improvement over competitors (as they are almost tied now)

:)
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Guys, could you please stop these discussions? If you like the SGS2 better, then buy one and head over to their forums. I appriciate the bumps, but these posts are totally of topic. So please stay on topic.
[LG Optimus 2x] baliriot:
yeay! kiljacken to the rescue...:D
[LG Optimus 2x] -Howard-:
Sorry to be a pain but any news from benee :) im back on stock kernel because of recent comits to it
[LG Optimus 2x] imayoda81:
post spamming and... thanks spamming.. you adult.. haha :D

however, we need spoilers now!.. actually it's getting harder to resist untill next release :D
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Chatting with Benee at the time of writing this :)

Check our git for our changelog :)
[LG Optimus 2x] imayoda81:
loving you.. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] cokeman0:
Sorry for beeing a noob.

Love to... Found the githlink on first page, but where is the changelog ?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
The commits tab
[LG Optimus 2x] nfin1te:
thanks for your awesome work :)

PS: when releasing, dont forget about the spare zip, need it because of ext4 :D thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] Darkje:
Indeed it has been while now... iam also verry curious for the next release.

keep up the good work guys.

PS i heard that in Holland defenitly the official GB release will be done in september.
[LG Optimus 2x] emprize:
Still waiting for universal ext4 converter update
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Spare zip? I don't really get what you mean.

We're working on it. Benee is just spending a lot of time at moving, and we both keep getting ideas for new features xD

This isn't the EXT4 converter thread, go over and bump it. But why is a new one needed?
[LG Optimus 2x] nfin1te:
just meant the zips in benees dropbox - im on ext4 and want to reflash the new kernel directly after updating to the newest nightly build directly in cwm. thanks :)
[LG Optimus 2x] -Howard-:
Hehe we dont need to many features ;) just the ones that add performance lmao
[LG Optimus 2x] FISKER_Q:
That's why there's an option for manual flashing.
[LG Optimus 2x] nfin1te:
My bad, didnt notice that :o thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Okay, our testing branch is stable again, and I'm putting a halt on the feature adding. I might go ahead and release today, if Benee approves, as I think you guys deserve it.

Here is some highlights of the next release:

+ Linux version 2.6.32.46

+ All the new commits from CM Kernel

+ New OC code. This adds pseudo-governors

+ "OMG it's smooth" Techology (TM)

+ "WOW it boots fast" Protocols (TM)
[LG Optimus 2x] crazy_dj:
awesome .. thank you for this awesome kernel , I love it :) can't wait for the update :D
[LG Optimus 2x] nfin1te:
Awesome! Many thanks again.
[LG Optimus 2x] -Howard-:
Hehe cant wait :D
[LG Optimus 2x] markop90:
Awesome!

but please don't remove internal flag in the next update, because the /sdcard/_ExternalSD mountpoint is better than /emmc one!
[LG Optimus 2x] FISKER_Q:
There will be an option for a RIL for the 725 BB as well right?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
It will be removed, because it has been built into CyanogenMod :)

Yes :D
[LG Optimus 2x] -Howard-:
With the new kernel i expect my phone to be able to boot in 2 seconds and transform! /troll

But really nice work! surly they arnt that many more.things you can add to the kernel that are actually useful :P

So thanks guys.
[LG Optimus 2x] andjohn:
Hey man,

Are you saying we should see the same result under MIUI for the sdcard mounting? I know you said Cyanogen but do you mean the regular mounting will be:

Internal = primary SD

External = \mnt\emmc with a symlink or mount point to _ExternalSD

This is what I use now. :) Thanks for the excellent work!

Send from your mom's house.
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
In CM they have implemented a setting you can toggle to gain the effects of the -internal flag. It should come to MIUI as it is based of of CM
[LG Optimus 2x] andjohn:
Nice, thanks for your clarification. Would it be too much to ask for an internal flag capable version until MIUI follows?

Btw, awesome work. Much appreciated man.

Send from your mom's house.
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Not with that signature of yours.

Just kidding. We wont add it again, as it would bring too much git-****, so if you want the internal flag, I'm afraid you'll have to stick with an older version
[LG Optimus 2x] markop90:
they added the capability to swap /emmc and /sdcard mountpoints, not to modify the /emmc mountpoint in /sdcard/_ExternalSD :(
[LG Optimus 2x] andjohn:
Hahaha, fair enough. I'll see if I can make a script to swap the emmc mount point to external sd. My problem with the emmc mount point is that MIUI hasn't integrated it with the media scanner and other things.

Send from your mom's house.
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Oh, then I might add it again. It's just really hackish and buggy :(

And a symlink can be easily added
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
The release got benee proofed and it's pretty epic. So kiljacken go ahead when you're ready :D

I'm without internet (on pc) until sunday. So yeah nothing from my side ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Sheppie:
Can't wait for the OMG and WOW. Great job
[LG Optimus 2x] -Howard-:
Less hacky the better :D

and cant wait for release now ;) see if its as good as you say lol :)
[LG Optimus 2x] philstar:
Awesome job, guys! Cant wait! Gogogo! :D

Big thx!
