Is your imei still there? try to reflash modem with odin.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st4rk:
You will need to remove darkys ram hack other wise there will be a conflict.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaiiscool:
Try flashing a new modem via odin

EDIT: oops, already mentioned by hickup...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaikat:
Well i flashed it and all went well even though i didn't remove the hack.. but it didn't give me what i was looking for, which is the smartass governor.. Then i found zack's talon version(the first one). running it right now, and i have to say things look very promising ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mondeo-rs:
hi guys,

this kernel is very fast and stable.

the only problem i have is the bootanimation:

if i change the cumstombootanimation to sanim.zip in /system/media, there will be no animation after the talon logo?

what did i wrong?

greets
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] -freedroid-:
This is a problem caused by voodoo initframs. There is nothing u can do.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darcia:
Hmm... In your "custombootanimation" what could you see? The bootanimation script and the 2 step-image? Or a CWM script and a bootanimation.zip ? ^^

Extract bootanimation.zip rename it .. I think that your problem is here, you renamed the flasher not the bootanimation in it ^^ . ( I did the same.. Shame on me)

Because bootanimation should work, I got it ^^
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] johan81:
My SGS seems to be in a bootloop and I would like to flash Talon through Odin but don't know how. Anyone here that can help me out? Thanks!

NVM, just flashed it through the recovery mode, stupid me lol.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st4rk:
You still need to remove the ram hack, it conflicts with the ram settings in talon, even zach's talon.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] johan81:
I have the most curious problem. I flashed back to Semaphore because I had some FC's on some programs and went back to Talon after that, now my touchscreen doesn't work. The weirdest thing is that the only kernel that doesn't bootloop is the fixed compass version of Talon. Even the 0.3.1 normal version goes into a bootloop. But now my phone is completely useless since the touchscreen doesn't work lol. I hope anyone can give me some advise which doesn't involve a complete wipe.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mondeo-rs:
Thank you Darcia, thats the problem, now it works....

@exitz

I had to flash DarkCore back for a few tests and noticed a huge color difference. I see you're using SpeedMod Color fix, instead of Voodoo that DarkCore uses. To my eyes, the Voodoo one is far better. Have you considered using that instead? Did you check it out? I'd like to hear some feedback :)

Latest update: wiped everything, flashed stock deodexed JVP odin from Ramad then Talon 0.3.1 non oc with sgs kernal flasher. Did not restore any apps. Switching on Wifi still reboots my phone. I do have ginger bootloaders and 512 pit from previous flashes. Existz HELP! pls look into it, chging kernals for the moment. Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st4rk:
I'll start by saying that you are better hearing this from the talon devs, I'm just repeating from memory what I have seen them post to others..

Talon uses zram, this means that the settings used in darky, juwes.. etc ram hacks don't actually work properly (as to what issues it causes, I don't know for you but it stopped tw4 working properly for me).

Talon devs have there own ram settings built into the kernel that are optimised for use with zram.

You can try and search posts from Kodos96, the co-dev of talon as he has explained it a few times.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betoNL:
Are you on RFS or Ext4?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Krieg Noobie:
Rfs stock deodexed. Flashed dc 2.7.3 and tried switching wifi on/off many times, no reboot. What's wrong......
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betoNL:
When you first flashed Gingerbread, did also update the bootloader (when flashing an odexed gb version with Odin for instance)?

«»

EDIT - Oops..never mind just read you did update the bootloader.....

By the way I just flashed Galaxian v5 in order to test it and ...smooth as always....

I am always on RFS and the only thing I didnt change is the mod rom

I am still on ver.73 of CriskeloGinger

And, since using Gingerbread firmwares I froze a lot of stuff using Titanium app

and removed lots of bloatware using sgs tools advanced mode.....

And I am also , just in case, always trying to create more space at /system.....

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Flynny75:
Im also now having the WiFi reboot. I tried to install everything from fresh after my GPS just seemed to give up completly. Flash stock samsung 2.3 JVQ to check it still actually works. It does. Flashed Ficeto JVB, and then the JVO modem, and it all worked. Flash 0.3.1 on top, and now I have WiFi reboot bug. And no GPS.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
As i mentioned, will be fixed in next version
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betoNL:
Meaning with Talon (voodoo initramfs) or Galaxian (CF initramfs) I have no issues at all (BT - wifi -gps)

With talon I can finally overclock up to 1200Mhz 100% stable as long as I slightely OVERvolt the 1200 frequency ( and I undervolt only from 800Mhz and down)

With Galaxian I can overclock up to 1400 but I get stability issues when listening streaming radio with screen off ( also when I downclock to 1200Mhz..

I think I will stick with Talon which also have better battery performance and my phone gets also less warm...

Yep...dont feel like frying my device ....yet.....

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaikat:
first off thanks a lot for the tip, i will 'hopefully' try to remember this maybe the cause of any potential problems i might face..

the truth is the phone is running nicely, so i don't think i'll do anything, well, until i see reason to..

still, i believe what you/talon said about this kernel and darky to be true, i don't know anything about development so i'm in no position to argue, but from where i'm standing all is going well..

i'll report back if anything comes up..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yo_alex823:
Flashed 0.3.2 kernel and my wifi is working!

I Like the bigmem version, first gb kernel i used with this feature.

Waiting for an oc version.

Thanks Talon Team!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Hrithan2020:
You mean the 0.3.2 beta version right ? ;)..

What is the OC version you are running and at what frequency? How much is the bigmem version? (350/355, I suppose?; is it with HD video recording disabled like froyo speedmod?)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
There is no bigmem for i9000, just captivate, if you grabbed the one up on existz.darkirc.info/public/talon/ , that was an accident..and since removed. Im only doing a bigmem for captivate, since I don't have an I9000 to test with, I wont know what all it breaks (ie. Front camera..etc) .. So if you dloaded it from there, that's a captivate version..and was accidently posted

And damn, your quick :P I didnt have it up long

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Cy4n1d3:
It surely breaks hd recording. Should be 353mb I guess :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kodos96:
I haven't seen the video you're talking about, but I think you're getting confused between discussion of GPU accelerated RENDERING vs GPU accelerated ANYTHING.

What they're probably talking about is the possibility of using the GPU as a general-purpose parallel processor for offloading tasks that are not traditionally done by the GPU (like web rendering?), which to my knowledge android doesn't currently do, and it sounds like they're probably saying in that video that they're not planning on doing anytime soon.

But that doesn't mean that the GPU isn't still getting used for the kinds of tasks that a Graphics Processing Unit traditionally is used for... things like... umm... processing graphics :)

Scrolling/panning in the the browser very definitely IS GPU accelerated on Android, just not rendering

That's not to say that GPU OC makes a major performance difference - it doesn't as far as I can tell... but if what you're saying is that GPU OC is pointless because android doesn't even use the GPU at all, for anything......... well......... yeah, that's not correct.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] asicman:
No aspect of the basic android 2.3 UI, from stock apps to third party apps use GPU for hardware acceleration. All stuff that the standard UI uses such as drawRect, etc uses the Canvas API function. There is no "pipeline" to the GPU for this stuff.

I still think that GPU OC is pointless. This is because 2.3 does not offer GPU acceleration. You wont see the standard UI getting any better so there is no point of GPU OC. As it stands, all my games work perfectly with 200MHz. Really, are you going to get a few more fps, when the max fps is itself capped? GPU OC will make sense if we can offload compute-intensive tasks to the GPU because of its massively parallel structure.

I will leave you with the following obvious observation. Did you notice improved UI performance when the CPU jumped from 1GHz to 1.4GHz (or 1.6GHz)? Clock the CPU back down to 1GHz, and OC the GPU by 200MHz, what performance gain do you see (well you kinda already said you saw nothing)? For me, when I jumped to 1.4GHz, I saw immediate obvious UI improvement. I saw no such gain at stock CPU freq. and 200MHz GPU OC. This is enough to prove that UI is not GPU accelerated.

You may do further reading on the Canvas API, etc to convince yourself that UI is not accelerated.

Have you ever wondered why Apple has a near flawless UI experience?...GPU Acceleration!! Because android doesnt use this, the UI is laggy across all manufactures. Even 3.0 is laggy, at it reportedly has GPU acceleration functionality! Google is a little naive to not see this. Or maybe they do, but they are still naive hoping that the mobile CPU will one day catch up. The CPU hasn't changed in like 10 yrs, its always heavily pipelined and "optimized" for general purpose tasks. Google must be hoping for a CPU architectural change, but then it will be like a GPU :eek:

CPU OC for smother UI. Its sad that we have sacrifice battery life for this. Its simply not efficient...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Flynny75:
How about the SurfaceView and GLSurfaceView? Pretty sure they are accelerated. There is no way all the ui effects are done in software on the fly. But this is getting a little OT. I for one prefer to use the phone at its full potential, oc CPU and at least the intended gpu clock. If you don't want to use it, don't adjust it. But it shouldn't be removed just because you don't think it makes any difference.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] asicman:
I don't know about those functions. If they are used in the standard UI and Canvas API, then they are not GPU accelerated. As for GPU OC being necessary or not. Well is 1.6GHz CPU OC necessary? There are people who would come up with lots of reasons why it isn't. But these are all optional in talon. I never advocated the removal. If I think its pointless (I gave more than enough justifications why its pointless), then I won't use it. Existz isn't forcing anyone to use anything. Its just that some of us like to give a personal review when we try a new feature. God forbid if all reviews are met with "don't use it if you don't like it."
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darcia:
But... The GPU is here, the GPU is used, the GPU turn at some frequence.. Like we OC CPU for up some performance, OC the GPU will make something calculated faster.. No? So OC GPU if that don't make it warm too much could improve something even if this is not directly ... hum... "seeable" ? ^^' ( kss sorry for my english)

If this is not the case... This is better to switch off this useless thing or UC this... x) ( I think not =p )

lag to launch softwares

Hi all

Since i flashed TalonDev, when I launch software I seems a little biy laggy compare to Darkcote where I come from. Do you have the same issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
does TalonDEV use deadline io scheduler or sio scheduler? can anyone explain?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] poyda69:
Hi Existz

is it possible to add the governors as in the "snail09" mod which uses your kernel?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15228666&postcount=17
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
sio scheduler is the default one :)

let the author talk:

why not ask me ? ;)

I'm working on it, too ^^

what governor do you want ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
Well, actually we have tested every governor...and always end up going back to ondemand...

interactive/interactiveX = works ok, laggish at times ...ondemand is smoother

smartass = has issues scaling down with anything over 1.2ghz, (ie. 1.3/1.4/1.44 will not scale down , sets at max clock)...then with smartass on 1ghz/1.2ghz versions, still sluggish at times, ondemand is overall better...

All this is based on serveral attempts to try out different governors with Talon, Ondemand is the most reliable, smoothest...atleast with Talon, they may work well on other kernels.. But for now, we will stick to just Ondemand to keep down the number of issues that people may have, stability is key

Uses SIO, its in the OP...next version will include new V(R) IO Scheduler from ZenKernel, but SIO will still be default
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zs0mby:
will the new realease have at least 1500 mhz?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
++

we need a good alternative to ondemand that works on all frequencies :)

(in my opinion ondemand all the time is less smooth than conservative or smartass; interactive doesn't provide a consistent experience overall - from time to time there are some situations where performance somehow degrades / causes some small, noticable lags)

been eyeballing ondemandX for some time now but not sure if it's the one ^^

maybe it needs some more tweaking or improvements then there's another governor to rule them all - in this case ondemand :D

++

SIO works well

I remember that there were some small issues with V(R) at the time while it was still new but not sure anymore - I have lots of things in my head recently so it's probable that I confuse it with some other issue from last year when I used 2.6.35 on the desktop ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] blandon:
can i use this kernel with dxjv9 based rom,,since im on asia,,,i mean is it stable,,thx
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BusterSG:
yes it is stable (no hang, no auto reboot)

i am from asia too.

flash stock JV9

then flash talon tar via odin to achieve CWM

things to note (that i've learnt coming from speedmod kernel)

* rem to download BLN app from market

* in CWM, the selection button is the POWER button
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Cy4n1d3:
SIO is fine, true :)

I tested zach's implementation of the smartass governor and the experience was pretty pleasing. Scaling was alright, only 1600mhz didn't work so well but maybe that was something on my side :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Hey existz,

Heard Talon 0.32 was going to be released last Saturday. I guess that's changed :) What's the current plan now? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mloc33:
Did you disable the lagfix or just flash it straight away?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rixsta:
I was wrong ...

Tiramisu Rom JVH

Talon Kernel JVH

It pairs but doesn't connect ....my bad ...

I tried to connect to my laptop and my SGS 2 ... :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MrMagic:
Flashed it straight away through Odin.

Normally when both your old and your new kernel support ext4, there's no need to disable the lagfix first.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] existz:
Some have said clearing cache / dalvik cache or flashing a different modem helps with the bluetooth...a work around till we get it fixed I guess
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rixsta:
Agreed ..Its not like froyo, with ginger nuts its all the same ex4 so no need to disable ..well something like that ..

No sure if that apply's to fugumod though ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] aladin6:
And why activating a lagfix ? Well, the lagfix is important on Eclair ROMs but not with Froyo and Gingerbread ones. That's my opinion because i'm not really finding a big(no) difference w/o lagfix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] aladin6:
Yes, it's an annoying problem that Bluetooth doesnt works :( (i'm on Simply Honey ROM).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rixsta:
Over time the original RFS File system does begin to slow down and lag where as the EX4 system doesn't ...

Its not so much a lagfix really ...The nexus s uses the EX4 gingerbread file system ...Much better..

I guess its sort of a file system patch for our SGS that runs on top of the RFS system...

CM7 is the only rom that completely removes RFS all together ..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] aladin6:
But if we are "addicted" of flashing/updating ROM/installing other kernels the activation of lagfix will be useless in this case. No ? RFS will show it's "weakness" in a long term.

I flashed the ZSJV5 modem and after the reboot I could enable bluetooth. However, a little later it didn't work anymore.

Update:

Never mind, bluetooth is working after all. I was running this utility called "Speed Enabled Bluetooth" which was causing some issues.

I successfully transferred a file over bluetooth from my PC. Didn't try the connection with my car yet, but I think it'll be fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hackeron:
I have an issue that I dont know if its romrelated or kernel related. Sometimes my brightness seems to go up "in auto mode". And when I switch to max and min and then set auto again. It is fine for some seconds. Then it justs increases again. Its too bright.

I had this problem on latest Fugumod aswell, thats why I think it might be rom-related? On juwe's 4.3.1 right now.

Any ideas about this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rlorange:

@exitz & zacharias

I know this might sound stupid, but i thought i'd share. the new Samsung Galaxy S Plus has a 1.4Ghz CPU (Qcom & Adreno 205) and 512mb of RAM.

From what i saw in a review the Plus has 358mb of Ram available. You can have a look here. Video recording works fine. Is it possible to have a look at the kernel used in that and maybe see if we can pump up a few more RAM in our unit?

You can have a look at the full review here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
They probably implemented some fixes in the hardware that decreased the RAM usage for 720p graphics(enabling more RAM for android to use).

Edit: Not to mention fixing CPU speedpaths to enable higher clockrate.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Flynny75:
You can't expect improvements from using a different SOC to be easily transferred. Unfortunately...

I've never been able to find and good scaling govener... anything other than performance caused music playback to skip around, which is an absolute deal breaker. Not sure if its the player (Player Pro) or this kernel.

But i read around like if convert system to ext4, there is decrease in battery life and the phone is hotter??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darcia:
I can't understand how it is possible. This is just about file system in partition, If I format a litle storage (hard-disk or usb key) from Fat32 to NTFS, it don't warm more.

In fact I'm not an informatician, but I can't see how change file system, gestion of files in partition, could make your device warm more or drain battery ( significativelly, of course).

The best should be to make a try ^^ . But my opinion is that the only problem with ext4 convertion is a litle time drain during the convertion =p

There is a little overhead in terms of journaling (more writes to the disk) that can potentially reduce battery life. However, it's negligible.
