0.5.1.4 is good, but seems like it has a small downside with cpu frequency during flac playback (don't know if this is related to new sleep code or not).

(you may remember I and some others talked abt music playback freq a while ago, when it used to lock at 800mhz when screen off, thankfully i have been using the latest kernels and this is no longer an issue! :D, but anyways back to the point..)

0.5.1.3

mp3s screen on - plays at 100mhz

mp3s screen off - plays at 400mhz (no biggie, voltage still pretty low)

flac screen on - plays at 100mhz (and a teeny bit of other frequencies)

flac screen off - plays at 100mhz (and a teeny bit of other frequencies)

0.5.1.4

mp3s screen on - plays at 200mhz (no big deal, i have tegrak set to 200mhz min anyway)

mp3s screen off - plays at 100mhz (improvement!)

flac screen on - uses multiple frequencys, and abt 50% 1000mhz

flac screen off - uses multiple frequencys, and abt 50% 1000mhz

It is no big deal, but I will stick with 5.1.3 cause I love my flac :). Will be interested to see how the next version behaves.

Hmm, interesting!! I should check out the nexus forum more often...

I'm quite interested to see what existz thinks of the 220mhz bus OC, I very much like the sound of that :D! I already run my device at 1100mhz anyway but an official 1.1ghz with 220mhz bus.. i am already dreaming of it lol
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaiiscool:
Can someone shed some light on this? I have posted this issue in Talon Issue Tracker

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. keep using the phone for some hours and the problem occurs randomly.

Please describe the issue the best you can.

On recieving a call I cannot hear the other person, the other person can hear me fine. The earpiece seems to be not giving any output whatsoever. Also if I put the phone to speakerphone I can talk normally.

Which phone (i897/i9000) and what kernel version? On what rom?

i9000, 0.5.12,13 (will try 14 today)

Please provide any additional information below.

Tried different ROMS, JVR/S/T (All stock), no luck.

0.5.1.5 Public Test

UPDATE

0.5.1.5

- reverted deep sleep detection patch

NOTE

Reverted deep sleep detection patch due to issues coming out of suspend with oc

versions...things should scale properly like before, smartass2 should also scale a

little different than it did in 0.5.1.4, as the deep sleep patch effected it as well

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cink40:
Is Memory freak not included anymore in 0.5.1.5? Also there is no _99ramset in init.d after installation of 0.5.1.5 12000 BM?

Edit: yes just me --- problems with busybox...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] chiefy009:

my voltage settings arent saving on reboot ?? and governor keeps changing back to ondemand
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
You might have a busybox issue.

See my sig - Android Optimization Tips (CTRL-F for busybox)

---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 PM ----------

Busybox issue (refer to my previous post) most likely, or you're using screenstate_scaling script. It will always choose ondemand, but that doesn't explain your voltage values, hence it's more likely a busybox issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] superwahwah:
I'm not able to change values in Memory Freak, I change values, I save, apply, reboot and after reboot there is no changes applied.

Maybe this happen since I set scripts from Picka..

maybe will make a fresh flash..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
The scripts won't clash with MemoryFreak. It's designed so that it doesn't interfere with LMK/OOM/Swappiness.

Try installing busybox 1.19.2 again (from stericson's busybox installer)?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] superwahwah:
It works now with busybox 1.19.2

thx pikachu01 ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
Remember guys, most roms ships with busybox 1.18, which does not have runparts...so none of your init.d or kernel scripts are being applied on boot..., this is a rom issue and i advise notifying your rom chef to either use 1.17 or 1.19...otherwise files in /etc/init.d/ will not work
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] shaarky:
It's strange, I had the same problem, however busybox disappeared! I had to install it again, then it start to work again (voltage control, memfreak wasn't saving values etc.). Not sure what was the cause, whether it happened after script installation or Kernel, as I did both almost at the same time. No big deal however, it's fixed already.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
Ok, so heres another binary that i made, this one will clear out swap/zram completely.. This is ment to be a last resort before having to reboot, so dont over use it...

To Install

1) extract zip and copy 'clearzram' binary to /system/bin/'

2) set exectuable permissions to /system/bin/clearzram

3) use terminal emulator or adb shell and type 'clearzram'

After you do steps 1-3, after setup all you have to do is step 3

What the binary does

In short - unloads zram module and then reloads it, clearing out swap/zram

Detailed-

- executes 'swapoff' to zram

- unloads zram module completely

- re-loads and sets up zram module

-- sets zram size based on whats set in /etc/ram.conf

-- initiates /dev/block/zram0

-- sets 'mkswap' to /dev/block/zram0

-- sets 'swapon' to /dev/block/zram0

The binary will call /bin/post-boot.d/05-zram script, this ensures that when it loads the zram module again, it sets the ZRAM_SIZE that is set in /etc/ram.conf.. Only use this when the memory leak gets bad enough to where you have to restart. I will include this binary and the dropcache binary i made awhile back into the kernel and there will be options in MemoryFreak to execute both these, but until then, just install and use as posted above
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rebel2k:
Yes of course... In fact, I can't find any kernel which let my phone stable and without reboot more than 24 hours... :(

MemoryFreak Notice

NOTICE!!! "Clear ZRAM" should ONLY be used as a

last resort to delay a reboot!! This clears all data from

ZRAM, which will cause any active pages currently residing in

ZRAM to be flushed back to RAM or dropped, possibly necessitating

data to be fetched from the NAND memory again. You have been warned.

Ok. Again, even if I am really satisfied (as never) with an odexed rom jvt (so with overscroll glow effect by default and tornado mod to have all useful things), semaphore 1.8, ext4 no journal, 1250 mhz ondemand, etc etc. It's stronger than me to try this last one, neutral colors, drop cache and clear zram in memory freak and pikachu overcommit setting / scripts.... As always, after some days, I will do a full report, my main goal being concentrating on memory leaks (with odexed jvt and semaphore not bigmem, I don't have memory leaks after 3 days of intensive use without rebooting).

Again thanks for your hard work guys. See you for my report.

Tatsuya79 after flashing TalonDEV-0.5.1-RC1-1200-I9000-CWM3-Neutral_Colours.zip I have the old logo not the new boot logo!? It is normal? Thanx!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tatsuya79:
I'm already on a stock odexed JVT with just a zipalign/readahead/ext4 conversion + pikachu values ram.conf and it's the fastest setting I tried.

I even tried CM7 for a while and it didn't felt that smooth (but on CM7 standard kernel, perhaps some others are better... anyway I'll try again CM7 later probably).

I can still feel it gets slower sometimes after a whole day, but it speeds up again by itself releasing some RAM.

When memory leak will finally get fixed this will be perfect. (but then ICS will come with new bugs :D )

---------- Post added at 01:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 AM ----------

Yes that's normal, that's how it's done when compiling from Existz repository. (and I like the old logo so I didn't complain :) )
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lazy_ursache:
Ok Thanx for the answer!

No problem about the logo ...I only asked because I wanted to know if this is normal or if there is a problem with that version!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Hmm, it is most probably due to a misbehaving app that tries to take as much memory as possible and not releasing it even after the program leaves the foreground. There's not much any kernel tweaks/hacks can do to stave off this if the app decides to do this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rebel2k:
I know that's a bit off-topic but do you have any suggestion on how to find and definitely isolate this guilty app?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] KMino:
The overcommit memory setting of 0 , any feed back on that from anyone? Still testing it here..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Nash123:
Is it intended to have usb-debugging activated after every reboot, although it was deactivated manually some time before the reboot?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Try uninstalling/freezing one app at a time until you've found that you're not facing the memory leaks anymore. Not sure what other ways that can be done.

Install OS monitor to see which app are currently running all the time? And see which apps are draining your battery using BetterBatteryStats?

Is it possible to remove voodoo color once for all, it's terrible and buggy, it's the only annoying thing about talon kernel, and I'm pretty sure it puts many away from this great kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mopral:
Search in this thread for Tatsuya79 release: it does not include voodoo color
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacc:
I'm aware of tatsuya79 release, but what I'm wondering is why insist in Voodoo Color which is clearly in need of an "Extreme Makeover".

I notice that Talon doesn't have a Odin package, and forcing to install another kernel to access CWM, is there a reason for this?

In your opinion which kernel should be installed first to gain access to CWM (voodoo? semaphore? doesn't matter?).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Did you give superuser permission to MemoryFreak? Do you have more than one version of busybox in other places? (Check my sig for Android Optimization Tips and CTRL-F for busybox for more info)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mopral:
Some people like Voodoo color as it is...

And it could help some people who have a bad amoled screen (bluish or yellowish)

At least, we have the choice between Voodoo and non-Voodoo release...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tatsuya79:
The reason for CWM package is to be easier to use directly on your phone and to clean cache and stuff to avoid old kernel conflict.

Flashing voodoo 1st would be better as Talon is based on that but... you can flash Talon too:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lazy_ursache:
Thanx pikachu01 and Rebel2k! Problem solved by flashing again the rom and just TalonDEV kernel!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
It takes 2 seconds to tar the zImage inside the zip, you don't have to flash another kernel first. , but I make releases CWM because alot of people don't listen about not using these 3rd party memory tweaks or ramhacks, and clearing cache and dalvik cache, so I had to make it a CWM zip so I could remove them during install. Plus for future use if I want anything to be copied or removed that I don't want to hardcode in the kernel (apps, scripts ..etc) , I can put it in the zip.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tatsuya79:
...if you're on ubuntu.

I ran into this problem before: tar made with 7zip aren't accepted by odin. We can find some exe flying around aimed at taring kernels under windows but it wasn't working neither for what I tested.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
Just take the tar from another kernel or older versions of Talon, and just drag/copy the new zimage inside it
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tatsuya79:
Oh I see what you mean, it wasn't working because my tar are associated with winrar.

So it works with 7zip?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
always did for me when i used windows...just use a tar from an existing kernel, drag new zimage inside it, and flash... dont extract it and all that, just open the tar, drag and drop new zImage inside it and go on..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaiiscool:
Yup, i do the same thing. Just open the tar in 7zip and drag and drop the new zImage inside it.

Is 1.2 the highest you are willing to take this kernel ? read 1.3ghz is stablish only enquring always use talon suits my usage

Mu quad is slower than previous ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
As of right now yes, 1.2ghz is as high as im going...1.3ghz might be stable for some, but might not work at all for others... Once i get a working device to test on (currently without a SGS/Captivate now), i will start working on creating an OC module for Talon, by default the module will be unloaded so 1ghz will be max, then when you load the module, you will be able to select it up to 1.4ghz or whatever i set max to... Shane87 mentioned doing an app for this as well, so it will be easily configurable via app..But I wont be able to start on this until im actually able to test it myself, as some stuff from stratosk module code will need to be modified for Talon........But in the mean time you can use Tegrak OC app to oc higher than 1.2ghz (but note that it will not be supported, I cannot support anything other than the oc/uv thats in the kernel..so if you have issues, first go back to the oc/uv in the kernel before posting issues)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tatsuya79:
You have to free some space by killing some apps in system/app when you install a stock odexed rom.

Then you can install busybox/superuser from the market.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Yousef-SYI:
I used all your kernels before, but the latest one, the 0.5.1 RC, had a problem with my phone, the hardware "Back" key does not work when I use that kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
Make sure your using the correct version, check the filename and if it has i9000 in it, its for i9000, if it does not then it's for captivate.... Also, nothing has changed in the kernel since the very first version in regards to this, this is not kernel issue ...if you flashed a theme or anything recently, this is probably why

If you say u have used every version without issue, the only change in RC1 over the last test was just updated memoryfreak, so there's literally nothing changed kernel wise that caused this, something else is causing it, either flashed the wrong version, or you flashed something that messed it up (theme..etc)

TalonDEV-0.5.1-RC1-1000-CWM.zip <--is for captivate

TalonDEV-0.5.1-RC1-1000-I9000-CWM3.zip <-- is for i9000

hi Existz, 3d performance ins rom related or kernel or both? i want to stay stock jvt but i don`t know what kernel to choose between yours and semaphore.. for gaming of course

-most custom rom have nice features like nexus s 3d drivers etc etc.. but they have other un usefull stuff... i want pure stock with all mods if i knew i made myself a cfw:) thx plus im coming from galnet miui which has best 3d perf with neo 17...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pacc:
In my opinion talon is the best kernel for 3d intensive games.

I tested all kernels (semaphore,galaxian,voodoo,speedmod,damiangto, etc...), and none perform as good as talon 1200mhz.

Unfortunately it seems to suffer from memory issues, and with time it gets slower and slower until you reboot and everything is back to normal.

Please ignore quadrant results, I'm considering gaming FPS only.

Having tested most, below is my opinion.

CF-root (nearest to stock with root,very stable, reasonable 3d)

Semaphore (very stable with oc/uv up to 1300mhz, good 3d)

Speedmod (stable, good 3d)

Voodoo (stable, poor 3d)

Galaxian (amazing screen colors, best battery saver, moderate 3d)

DamianGTO (oc/uv up to 1440mhz, good 3d, battery drainer)

Talon (oc/uv up to 1200mhz, best 3d performance, smooth, memory issues)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
Memory Freak only works on original Talon.. as alot of the settings are dependent on stock Talon settings...so it wont work on any variant of Talon...unless they use the same kernel version name as Talon..as thats what MF checks.. Alot of devs who build off Talon change LMK settings, disable ZRAM..etc..etc.. and this could have nasty side effects on MF presets..etc..since they are looking for whatever is setup in normal Talon and is getting something else. Only way it will work is if you have the kernel dev change the kernel version name to match Talons and have untouched stock talon memory management
