[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] anoneemooz:
I'm not a frequent poster but I do a lot of reading and testing of talon kernels and my experience has mostly been good imho. :)

While I am in the camp that prefers having more free RAM that's just 'cus I have a ton of apps installed (i have an obsessive compulsive tendency to collect things) and I do have to admit that with no matter what kernel or ROM I happen to be on, my experience is always the same..where more apps = phone's performance starts to degrade. It's only been when I upped the LMK settings (usually with AKMO) to be more aggressive did I get back good performance.

To each his own though. Depends on one's needs really. I rarely do real multi-tasking besides the typical music + something else. Or email + browsing. So I hardly ever need to switch between running apps.

This setup works fine for me and others but not for everyone, I know. But I have to disagree when people call placebo on tweaks and such for smoothness. Like using AKMO or whatever else.

I do however also disagree with the person who says that because Super Charger has so many good reviews that it must work.

Most people in the Super Charger thread use other phones and thus don't have the same kernels or whatever else we happen to have. The SGS is after all one of the most actively developed-on Android phones thus far (Only to be dethroned by the SGS2 lol).

But really, Super Charger is no different then using an app that adjusts LMK settings and HTK launcher is just setting home_app_adj = 1. Done and done. So while I do appreciate zepp's work on Super Charger, I hardly find it necessary for the SGS.

1. Just using the right kernel...whatever that is is a matter of personal preference and experience of course ;) we here just happen to prefer Talon and think it's the best for us.

2. Adjusting LMK to suit your needs be it for multi-tasking or single-task-oriented usage.

This is done in a much easier way that is more noob friendly through apps (Ex. AKMO) that often have built in presets, but also allow for customization on the fly. An actual GUI helps too. Super Charger has its own presets but they might not necessarily work for our phones or all phones. So it's good that apps make it easy to adjust this on your own. We gotta admit, not everyone likes (or understands) things presented via the terminal emulator.

3. If you have a launcher redraw issue, then just make a simple edit to /system/etc/ram.conf to make home_app_adj = 1.

Tada. There's your Super Charger right there that's suited to whatever your need happens to be.

If Zepp comes up with an app, I wouldn't be surprised if it was just like most other apps already out there with the exception of having the HTK launcher option. Other apps prefer not to permanently change oom values of anything.

I know what I've said here probably is parroting what others have said time and time again but some people seem to miss the point and are devastated that they can't get Super Charger to survive a reboot with this kernel.

Talon team and helpers, I greatly appreciate your work. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] The Undertakerr:
Hi Existz,

Quick question:

I read in Simone's changelog:

I don't really feel obliged to try his modded version of Talon, but as I mentioned a few times before, Talon does seem to sometimes have problems gaining root rights, after coming from a different kernel.

Could you please have a look into this fixed path if it is any good?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rootax:
Where did that come from ??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] The Undertakerr:
Oops, didn't realise I wrote that; rephrased the sentence;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betoNL:
What you mean actually no?It makes no sense whatsoever:)

I dont care how he did it or why others didnt do it before

All I know is that Simone is the first one to post a BIGMEM version for the i9000 (gingerbread)available for EVERYBODY to download .

And then and only then Zacharias appeared on my thread :

And later on, you:

You thanked him over there, I think it's only fair to thank him over here as well...

I am thankfull to him as, before he brought up that version, we didnt have any " bigmem version to play with and now , we have even 3 versions (or maybe more)

I am also greatfull because his Talon SH is running very smoothly and I have no issues on RFS and also no issues on EXT 4 ( yep I finally decided to give it another go...

Anyway, you are entitled to your opinion, I just dont agree with it 100%

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
This problem is associated with the other kernel having a different version of busybox from the one that the kernel supplies.

The initial booting script actually checks whether the phone has busybox, and if it has, it refrains from copying its own.

This can be solved by using the busybox installer and installing version 1.17.x (rather than 1.18.x)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Talon Bigmem for i9000 has been released before, albeit only for testers (and it exists as an option in the build script). It's just that after a few major releases, Existz didn't release them to the public as there was a few major changes that might affect Bigmem for the i9000. With little time to spend on building/testing, he decided not to release it until today where a few of us testers spent some time testing them. :)

@betoNL: Please, don't start again this debate about a 12MB RAM difference kernel version, and angry people with the way to distribute points to one or another...

You could just grab the code on github and compile this yourself since the beginning.

Let's stay away from this "bounty" or claiming who deserves donations in priority.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] The Undertakerr:

I think those 12mb extra Ram is soo... overrated.

340mb or 352mb... Only an increase of 3.5%...

And starting a thread with bounties in dev section?

Maybe I should start a thread in dev section and put money on this:

[Bounty] Wanted PINK android lockscreen with tittie's for buttons -20euro's-

I think the development section would become cluthered very fast if everybody would start to offering to PAY money for requests....

From now on I will refrain from commenting on this matter and

stay ontopic:o Sorry...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brfsa:
did anyone notice a green glitch on the screen while locking?

for about 500ms the screen becomes green and the screen locking is not smooth.

anyone had this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] androiderrr:
I too notice it but i think its a feature rather than bug
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] brfsa:
ok, explain me how it can be a feature LOL.

It looks like a small glitch. well, not big deal...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jetcz:
I believe its related to voodoo color, could be "fixed" by modifying xmls in framework, but then you would probably broke other brightness levels or something.

Much more convinient way to get rid of it is to install CRT off animation.

First of all let me make perfectly clear, that i appreciate Existz work, as I donated to him in the past and I will do it again just to be sure.

My last post here was directed to him, and I dont think he needs "lawyers" or fanboys to answer for him and cluther this thread with stuff that got nothing to do with what I wrote to him.

Furthermore I already wrote on the other thread that if somebody wants, he could ask a moderator to move that thread to the general section, I dont care.

I also already wrote that if a user finds the 12 or 13 MB extra ram useless, it doesnt mean that it is useless for others.

I can show you on video how my device runs iGo navigation much smoother on a a Talon bigmem version than on a Talon with less ram

And even smoother on my wife's dhd, which have even more ram available

In the meantime you can have a look on one of my old gps videos, where I am running the heaviest iGo version (Motonav) Flawlessly and without stutter (during voice-guided instructions)...around that time I was using Speedmod BIGMEM (froyo)

My post to existz have nothing to do with rewards and donations...actually eventhough I am not experienced with Android, I am experienced with forums and I helped already thousands of users in gps forums in many countries and never asked for donations, since I was just passing the knowledge through as it should be in such Forums.

In fact the Xda forum was way better, before all this "donate to me" thing became official.

And an Android forum is whole new ball game for me...

Al I said is that I was greatfull that Simone tested and came up with a bigmem version to the i9000 as Existz also thanked him for testing and launching it (over there)

Stop cluthering this thread with nonsense answers to a post that was not directed to you on first place

It doesnt matter anyway.. I am out

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fifa_king:
hehehe beto with the arguments again :P

I think existz just wanted to give proper credits to whomever deserves it...

Regardless of ur true intention, if somebody was to read ur post for the first time, it would seem as if simone has come up with bigmem for the first time on the sgs and therefore "its only fair to use his version" (ur words beto). Just a tad bit misleading imo?? :eek:

maybe that is not what you meant but it certainly seems many people has taken it that way.

plus existz has personally apologized on the forum, if in case his comment came across as being a little harsh.

So no need for u to argue back but maybe there is a reason people like to troll at you kerel... Don't need to be calling them fanboys or wut not and even if they are... **** it...

Sorry for getting involved I just had to..lol got jack **** to do on a saturday afternoon..don't u just love xda drama tho? :P :P

P.S. - BTW those 13mb of extra ram is CRUCIAL on the SGS IMO....it is underrated to say the least... PPL seem to claim their phones get slower below 50 +/- mb.. so with a right balance of a slightly more aggressive lmk settings+bigmem=SMOOTH CONSISTENT FAST MULTITASKING :D which is totally worth it and hence why I think many ppl give up 720p just for that extra 13mb.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
All my point was, is that no this is not the 'first i9000 BIGMEM.. just because its not posted on XDA doesnt means its never been done before .. we have done i9000 bigmem versions on IRC, i never posted a BIGMEM on here because further testing was needed.. and these settings are not something new, or even modified, they are stock talon bigmem settings.. all that was done was went into Talon Settings menu, and enabled. This is not about money, nor never will it..if it was then i would have posted it myself, after all it is Talon settings, all I'm saying is credit should be given where credit is due.. kodos96, after all, these are his settings under BIGMEM in talon kernel sources.. i have no problem with Simone, at all, and i did thank him for further testing of the settings. And Simone is not trying to pass these off has his settings, he clearly stated he just enabled talon settings... I just want credit given to whom it's deserved for. ..either way, there is now an i9000 bigmem version, end of story and discussion

And just so that this is not all taken the wrong way, i am very glad for Simone and his Talon varient.. I do not want to come across that i do not, this is what Talon is all about.. There has been many many forks/varients of Talon since it first started.., and it is encouraged...its all about the opensource.. My original post might have came off harsher than it was, and it never was directed to simone at all, I was simply replying to BetoNL. This has blew up bigger than it should have, and went in the direction it shouldnt have, again from my original post, and i do apoligize for that, mostly to Simone.. We want people to take Talon and make it better..but to those that do not look at sources, or get on IRC, theres actually ALOT thats done to Talon already thats not in public releases on XDA.. some stuff still needs alot of testing, some of it doesnt work, ..etc... Only here recently have I started posting public test builds, just because they are not posted on XDA, doesnt mean nothings being done.., before there would be atleast 15-20 test builds per release, usually about every other day a new test would be posted to testers on IRC.., currently 0.4.4 is at test #22, and most of it wont be posted on here, but stuff is still being done and not posted on here for a reason, or further testing is either needed or wanted before releasing publicy

Either way, i9000 bigmem has been posted and now available..., no more need to discuss it, enjoy...And thanks to simone for his talon varient

Guys help me. How do I enable ZRAM ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
It is enabled by default by flashing this kernel
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fifa_king:
Edit: oops too late got beaten.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mohitdabbaail:
Terminal Emulator is showing 0 SWAP. I Don't think it's enabled by default.

How do I modify the values/size of ZRAM ?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bhu1:
First impression is last impression!

this kernel's first impression was very bad on me as after flashing using sgs kernel flasher the talom sign was their for like half an hour and then I have to take the battey out recovery kode wasn't working so I had to re flash galaxian uding Odin! Ill never use it again !

Sent from my sgs

kernel: galaxian

Rom: jetpack
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rootax:
You can use Memory Freak I believe.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rootax:
Flash it with cwm. It will remove scripts from other kernel, which can sometimes create conflicts.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
Do not use SGS kernel flasher app, i highly advise against it...either flash via cwm or odin/heimdall...Theres been almost 2000+ downloads for latest test version..,If you was not able to get into recovery, then it was a bad flash... also, I highly recommend using the latest test version (0.4.4.22) over 0.4.3, it is awhole lot more stable than 0.4.3..and has many more/new features/fixes.. This is more user error/issue than the actual kernel. The kernel boots and runs fine, as reported in this thread..and captivate thread. Follow the instructions in the OP and make sure to read the whole page
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] simone201:
@existz:

sorry for not being here to reply today....

Anyway, as i said, i give no credit for the bigmem mod, all the work.has done by kodos....

The only things that i give credits are my own mods added to original Talon, all these u can find in my github, and they are very simple mods that (i think) make Talon better....

Thanks for all ur work for this amazing kernel!

Greetings

Simone201

PS: i hope one day we can work toghether to improve this amazing kernel! u rock guyz!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jeebspawnshop:
That's ok dude. We don't want people like you using good kernels like this.

Good riddance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kalpik:
Erm.. So you're blaming the kernel for your own ineptitude? Nice.. See ya!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zenosteam:
ready for the big test too ,@existz did you find any issue for the the boot animation?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
UPDATE

TalonDEV-0.2.2R2 - JVP

added 1.6ghz as max overclock

set usb charging clock to 200mhz

some GPU changes from Morfic

few updates to wifi driver from aosp

some security improvements from fugumod

use Speedmod color/sharpness fix

added "power off" & "reboot download" to cwm

added "voodoo lagfix menu" to cwm

add upstream fix for ZRAM (compcache)

added voodoo JVP 2.3.4 initramfs

cpuidel menu governor upstream fix

plus few other random fixes

R2 - Fixed mounting issues in CWM

NOTE

As some of you may notice, its 0.2.2R2, I had initally released 0.2.2 for Captivate but later found a bug in CWM, preventing system from being mounted/unmounted..So i fixed the issue and got R2 up

With 0.2.2, we use Voodoo initramfs now, so no need for ChainFires apps...Also, wipe voltage control settings before flashing!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hackeron:
Thx existz you are awsome...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] .:Crack:.:
Really nice. just flashed from 0.2.2 T10... Will give feedback soon!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tatsuya79:
Wow, that's crazy fast.

I thought I would hardly see any difference but just on the desktop it's noticeable.

Did some bench and games at 1.3Ghz (3000+ Quadrant lol, still thinking about ~900 on Froyo), that's great no issue yet!

Awesome work guys, thanks a lot! :p

...but, Speedmod colours are not that great. It's not a matter of taste here, I can adapt to different colours temperature, but it's really wrong on several tones causing hue aberrations (like on the sample pictures of project voodoo website, bottom of the page).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st4rk:
Hitting a stable 1.3 for the first time even with some light uv, seems great so far. Thx existx!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] asicman:
SO if I flash 0.2.2R2 on 2.3.3 JVH, bad things will happen?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rlorange:
Works fine for me so far :) on jvh based rom. This kernel is still compiled from jvh sources only the initramfs is from jvp so I guess it will work for both?

**Simply Honey3.5, Zak'sTalon 0.2.1 kernel 1.3ghz, ZSJV5 modem**
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Parkuu:
Would i still use the ext4 app to change to ext4? on the JVP Kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
No. Enable/disable ext4 from cwm
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Parkuu:
Alright thanks. using the voodoo selection right?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ktuluz:
Wow... this is feeling very nice.

I know qandrant scores are f$ #%# these days but first time I have seen over 3000... 3402@ 1.6ghz. Very fast kernel this one even@ 1ghz. No bugs yet time. To break out moboplayer and test stable uv settings
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] oswade:
:S. Tried 2.2 on stock JVP with ext4 no journal. Phone reboots when launching apps through Touchwiz (stock TW) app drawer. And wifi gets stuck on obtaining IP.

Every other kernel works fine...

I might try and flash again...

EDIT: Reflashed. Apps launch fine with launcherpro, but freezing up on TW3 :S. Wifi still not working.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
Give me a second...with the Captivate we have found out the with TW4 that it skips through the higher clocks (1.5-1.6ghz) no matter what you have max clock set to, which can cause instability for those that cannot handle the higher clocks...so I put up a 1200 version of 0.2.2 for the Captivate, getting ready to put it up for I9000...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
UPDATE

-Added 1200 version up to 1.2ghz only

Seems with TW4 (and possibly some other apps) that its scaling to higher clocks (1.5-1.6ghz) no matter what max clock is set to (just for split seconds at a time).. This can cause instability issues for those that cannot handle the higher speeds.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] currydude:
Thanks for this. My SGS can't overclock over 1200 and I love TW4 so this release is excellent :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Parkuu:
Can someone share their oc/uv setting? im kinda new to this. sorry
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] currydude:
I need some help. Flashed over Dark Core 2.7.3 and seem to be getting bootloops. Boot Animations keeps continuing, strangely I can turn off the screen and turn it back on but the boot animations keeps continuing... Flashed using SGS Kernel Flasher. (I have stock Samsung boot animation but when flashing this kernel, it changes to another one with a flashing "android" ) The boot animations that I'm using are in the .qmg format
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] oswade:
Thanks existz. This 1200 max works fine except for Wifi. Anyone else having wifi problems? I fixed permissions too but it didn't help.

Just for info, i experienced the CPU reboot bug with TW3 too, and also when changing voltage with tegrak overclock ultimate (to a stable level)

Hope you can fix the scaling bug. I know my phone can reach at least 1300 (with 1350mv).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] currydude:
No good :( Even if I add the sanim.zip file in media, still bootloops, back to DarkCore :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] samiulislam16:
u cant even spell right :mad:, so cant expect good cmnts from u :mad:

u r probably used to being flashing kernel everyday with galaxian, so dont come here............. finally go and poop some kernel of ur own:mad:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Flynny75:
Wow, alright guys, calm down. We know its awesome. He doesnt, his loss. No need to keep flaming him.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
This whole thing got pushed into a direction it was not ment to be.., i never ment any of it directed towards you, i was just replying to BetoNL, and my original reply sounded a bit harsher to him and you than it was intended .. and i apologize for that. I really appreciate the mods you have made to Talon, we highly encourage this.., we want other to take Talon and make it better, or atleast make it better to them.., so keep up the work on your version of Talon...we need/want more people working on it
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] simone201:
Ok, no rush mate...

Thx for encouraging my work, i hope that u will (maybe) use some of my mods for the original Talon...

I will keep up with my research! ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] omnia-one4all:
Hi all. Seems that voltage control and other programs doesn't save settings in init.d. I can see that the file has been altered but there's nothing in the file. Busybox 1.17 is installed and it wont let me install 1.18 it just hangs. Mounted the system as rw with an app and that didn't help. I'm on jvr stock and 22 1000 no uv, oc or lagfix. Flashed via cwm twiceAny ideas what I could try next :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bhu1:
k maybe i am used to flash galaxian and semaphore quite a lot that'

s why i am feeling it a bit difficult to flash talondev ! and btw i wrote talon only but the perfect keyboard changed it to talom! now can anyone help me how to flash the latest developing version using odin or cwn as when i add the talondev .zip file in pda it remains .zip whereas when i do it for galaxian it automatically shows .tar! and how can i do it using cwm? and guyz pls help me fast as i am not using my computer this is someone elses !

Is there a specific way to enable BLN with this kernel? I've installed it over JUWE's ROM, then removed the market app, restarted the phone, then reinstalled the control app, but I have no luck. And yes, I have checked "Blink LED" in my SMS and eMail apps
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rootax:
I guess it is a rom problem ? Talon work with BLN without any tweak necessary.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rootax:
Just reboot in recovery mode and follow the procedure ... or :

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] simone201:
It is ROM related, the framework should be modded to fully support BLN

You have to flash services.jar modded. Choose between odex and deodexed here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16351978&postcount=168

It works with Jvr deodex with Talon and modified theme.
