As I explained in previous posts 1300MHz will not be stable in every device. I hope to be for some devices and maybe I can stabilize it a little bit more in next versions.

@sirbrian

I don't know my friend. But freezes and lags in 1000MHz it's a little weird. Maybe you can try dalvik cleaning?

@XuperLugia

I tried to explain this in a previous post. I will try to update this article when I have some time:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betovanbuuren:
Hi, i've had installed stock JVT from sammobile flash 1.8 and i think there's something with auto brightness cause doesn't calibrate automatically like when i was on JVS and 1.7.5 or 1.8beta1.

Any ideas what to check?? Thanks

@stratosk

Again a small beer and some heat from me for all your work. Thank You for semaphore. I'll bet a million stars on our sky that you would prefer something else.

Great work deserves respect. 6WR9814773821362B
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jimmy080705:
I think that version 1.8.0 is the best of all. Everything so smooth like warm butter + very nice semaphore panel. It's the best kernel I've ever seen, no issues ever ever.[/QUOTE]

Definately butter smooth!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yvrRome:
Excellent work on this kernel.

I had a freeze and reboot on 1200MHz but no matter since it runs perfectly smooth on 1000.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] soudy1994:
the kernel is running very smooth but i h8 this voodoo color how can i disable it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] from.insider:
Just a quick check. With semphore app, do i still need to move the script into system/inid???
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] HM.Carbide:
No, the script manager copies and removes the files automatically from init.d folder. It also runs the scripts, so most of the features are enabled/disabled immediately without reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Thanks you very much my friend. I don't have words to say.

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Thanks.

Do you use undervolting? Which rom?

@soudy1994

Just restore the default settings from voodoo control application and simply don't use it. You may use speedmod color preset if you want from Script Manager app.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sirbrian:
Dear Stratosk,

A million thanks for your Kernel especially 1.8.0bm. I just wiped the dalvik...will monitor..so far so good.

So sorry I can't donate a miilion to you as I don't have it, but I thought I just want to let you know that I am grateful to your Kernel with a small donation (a lucking amount to Chinese)...

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] soudy1994:
okay thanks for your reply i will try it

and btw u shud make 2 versions one with voodoo color and one without cuz the poll on ur site shows that more than 40% dont like it ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darckengel:
The poll only says that 40% don't use it (that's also mean than more than 50% uses it :) ) but not that 40% don't like it (it's quite different).

Semaphore let you choose between using it or not easily so there is no need to have 2 versions ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] djlukas1983:
I have a problem with semaphore 1.8.0, my processor doesn't go u under 200 Mhz, ask the time out stays at 200 or above it doesn't go down to 100. But when I turn off phones screen it goes deep sleep like it should, but never 100 Mhz, even if I set max f frequency at 100 Mhz, it stays at 200 Mhz. I have stock jvt. I don't have that problem with Galaxian.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Do you have the USB plugged in?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Thank YOU my friend! I really appreciate your support!

P.S. Why is this a lucky number?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] djlukas1983:
No I don't.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] webwude:
On 1.8.0 right now - looks very promising. Seems that bm version is not needed anymore for JVT... I will keep you posted...

Kind regards,

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Rebel2k:
For me the 1.8.0 kernel is really good but since I installed it I faced already 2 black screens when I had wanted to wake my phone up... It has never been the case before. Don't know why there. I have enabled cifs, tun and that's all (no overclocking).

Do you have any idea of what can cause this? (I'm using a JVR ROM)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dan_Aykroyd:
Boot Sounds

Hi again stratosk,

I've been using your kernel way before the latest version, before it created the backup of boot sounds; hence I've lost them.

I've noticed that in the latest Semaphore app version, there's the option to restore them if they were backed up by the kernel, so I wanted to ask you and fellow users:

Fellow Users:

Would anyone be kind enough to upload or point me to the backup generated by the kernel?

stratosk:

1) If I check that option to restore the boot sounds (after I get a hang on them), will they start working again (playing on boot, and also when charge is full - I've noticed that sound is gone too and I assume it was your kernel :confused:)

2) If they will play... why? Weren't they supposedly needed to be removed to have space for the kernel? How can we re-add them again?

3) If they won't play... then I don't know what the option to "restore boot sounds" in Semaphore apk is supposed to do.

Thanks in advance for your reply; you are awesome as always.

Best regards,
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] striker456:
i am running jvt with semaphore. my ringer now sounds a lot quieter when the phone is laying down. it seems the ring only comes out of the rear speaker, where in the past it must have rung out of somewhere else as it was way louder. is this a kernel issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAQ7:
Hi stratosk,

Thanks for a great job.

Man it is really great. But, when using wifi it has more battery drain than the previous versions !!! Why?

Moreover, (Although it is not an issue but I would like to mention it) it uses more ram (reachs 280m) than what it used to be (230 -255mb) with same running apps and settings. Any reason for that?

I am using it with JVR (Amestris) with the following:

Netfilter

TUN

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] javibj:
Hi, how I can activate lagfix?

When I install the kernel not installed chainsfire's ext4 application automatically, and from the recovery I can not activate lagfix.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] HM.Carbide:
Restoring boot sounds was a "hint" or feature request by malcho in Semaphore Script Manager Thread.

It is a CF-Root feature, that the startup and shutdown sounds are deleted. Even if there would be enough space on system.

Stratosk now makes a backup of the files before deleting them.

The enable_sound script simply tries to copy them back to there original place, if there is no file already there.

If system has not enough space, the file(s) will not be fully restored.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
RAM usage depends on what apps you have in the background/foreground currently. Free RAM is wasted RAM. At any time, RAM usage can change, you might be seeing it when you have something in the background.

Did you recalibrate your battery before concluding that Wifi drains more battery?

Ext4 app won't be installed automatically. You need to install it yourself. You can't activate lagfix from recovery. Only from the app.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Hi, please download the ext4 app from this link

Kernel does not install this app automatically.

@striker456

SGS speaker is on the rear side of the phone. Please check your volume settings. It is not kernel related.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dan_Aykroyd:
Thanks for your great explanation! Was also the charge full sound removed? Because I haven't heard it ever since I flashed the kernel.

BTW, would you know where I could download the sound files structured in the folder / filenames expected for the Semaphore app to restore them? Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
This is very weird. Did you try to reboot your phone and check again?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
I don't think it's related with cifs or tun. I can think only that you are using JVR. And 1.8.0 is using the precompiled modules from JVT. But, I'm not sure if this is the problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] urfak:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] original_mos:
nope, it's working properly!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bushido76:
I think he means the ext4 app, which sometimes needs a second try to work properly. ;-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bushido76:
Open ext4 app a second time, select "convert to ext4" and reboot.

Sometimes your mobile reboots to CWM without starting the conversion automatically.

I 've never noticed this. I'm sorry but I'm afraid I can't do anything since I don't have sources to ext4 application.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
I hope 1000Mhz is stable for you. Have you ever had issues with 1.2Ghz on previous versions?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DelGreco:
I had this problem myself twice.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
And the reboot and tried again and worked?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bushido76:
No problem. I experienced this problem many times but the "second try" always got it working. :-D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bassie1995:
Bootanimation is sanim.zip in /system/media, right?

Getting confused by the different implementations :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DelGreco:
After reboot it's ok
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
No, it's bootanimation.zip in data/local :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yvrRome:
Thanks, yes so far 1000MHz has been very stable for me. I started having problems with 1.2Ghz on 1.7.5.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dan_Aykroyd:
Would you please share the boot sounds as they are backed up in the folder? I need them to restore them to my phone!

Also, is supposed to be removed too the "full charge" sound?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DarkSorcerer:
On JVS, my friend stratosk, your 1.8.0 is working like a charm. Even with 1300mhz, my phone doesn't seems to be complaining. Still, I'll be providing more feedback as some more days go by. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Can you please try to undervolt 1200 by -25mV? The only change since 1.7.5 for this frequency was the voltage at 1200Ghz. It was 1300mV and I did 1325mV.

@Dan_Aykroyd

No, It only removes boot sound.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yvrRome:
Alright. I've undervolted by -25mV. I'll let you know in a day or so if I still get freeze/reboots.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bushido76:
In the last month I experienced several situations, in which a lower uv-value was running more stable than a higher one. From this point of view the SGS-CPU seems a little bit different from desktop CPUs. ;-) Good luck.

Bushido
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dan_Aykroyd:
Thanks again stratosk. Now that I think of it... in GingerBread, does the sound of full charge still plays? :confused:

I'll be on my quest then, if somebody could please point / share the original boot sounds as they were backuped up by the kernel, I'd be very glad
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] flolep:
Just to say you are near perfection, stratosk. I follow your thread since the beginning and you really seem to be a smart guy, and your kernel and its flexibility... Wow... That's all I can say. Take care keep up the good work.

You can untar the rom you flashed.

With this guide, you can extract the file factoryfs.rfs.

[GUIDE] Extract .rfs files

The removed files are:

/system/etc/PowerOn.snd

/system/etc/PowerOn.wav

/system/media/audio/ui/PowerOff.wav

Or, if you have a no wipe rom, you could flash it again.

After that, flash semaphore again, and you should be able to restore sounds.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MAQ7:
I will check it again. Since you talked about the RAM usage, I would like to ask you about it but it is better to raise the questions in your thread

If you mean the voodoo sound module you don't have to load it. Kernel supports voodoo sound without this module.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darckengel:

In order to make it work you need to load the "Netfilter" script using the Sempahore app.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dan_Aykroyd:
Thanks man! I'll do that then!

A couple of things though:

1) In which directory structure / file name the Semaphore app expects them to be?

2) Do you know also where the "full charge" sound is located in the factoryfs.rfs and why may it not be playing anymore in my phone? :confused:

Many thanks!
