I have already thought this but it needs a lot of investigation if this is possible.

Edit:

And because of this Murphy's law I flashed back the original 1.6.0 :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Yes, you will get an error if you try to record video in highest quality
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] krosscheck:
Hi stratosk,

im on juwes 5.3 with ur bigmen and it's fantastic. I don't use oc, but ov. It rocks, battery life is great!

Here r my settings with tegrak app.

Thx a lot!!!

It's not so important.

Your kernel is the best, and a beer is coming your way as a small thank you for all the great work with the kernel and generally being so helpful and friendly in the forums.

Thanks again sir! :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Astug:
Haven't tryed Semaphore since v1.2.2 but was a huge fan, very stable. Been using GalaxianGT 4 a while now but I've been having very strange random crashes and reboots, so I'll give Semaphore another go. :)

Thanks for the great work!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stfudude:
i have never tried big mem kernel before. but today i really need it. because of

thanks, stratosk :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rootusr:
Hi stratosk I want to install semaphore 1.6 with those S.A.S tweaks, do you recommend that? is it really usefull?

I need to use the netfilter module with semaphore, can I enable it after I enable the SAS tweaks? (since this requires to wipe the init.d folder) may it be some conflict?

Thank you!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] awesomeandroid:
thanks!

Thanks to SGS kernel flasher, flashing kernel had never been easier. If i need 720p recording, I can just flash 1.6.0 easily :D. And phone doesn't seems to be laggy anymore, guess coz of the more RAM given :D! THANKS!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Faith140291:
hi guys. i have installed this 1.6.0 and in a word, PERFECT. Only i dont have bln working, also with the bln control free. :(

RESOLVED: Sorry guys for the double post, i resolved installing a zip for jvr odexed rom with service.jar, posted previously by stratosk. however thanks for this awesome kernel :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Blackyyy:
Hi,

I'am on Darky 10.3 JVR. I installed the Kernel and all worked smooth. But I think the autobrightness doesnt work. It looks like the brightness is set to very low. But I trick the Autobrightness Button. Whatever where is the mistake?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] firsthtc:
I doubt that auto brightness is very low in 10.3 :P I installed myself and was really too bright

That was the reason to go back to R4

That is the reason ficeto is working at that

So...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Blackyyy:
Okay thank you^^
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sirbrian:
can i use the latest 1.6.0bm with Darky 10.2?

Thanks for your advise
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Yes, you can. It's the same with 1.6.0 with bigmem enabled.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Thank you very very much. I really appreciate this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] roundbelly:
can this kernel be flashed to 2.3.4 JVR stock ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bassie1995:
How come flashing themes seems to not work with multiple kernels and ROMs on JVR, on RFS sometimes, and EXT4 sometimes too?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ingineru:
Thanks for the bigmem version!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Yes, this kernel is made for 2.3.4
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Sorry, I don't understand your question.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bassie1995:
Well, whenever I try to flash a theme, I end up in a bootloop.

It happened on EXT4 and RFS on the GingerWay BlueOcean theme, only on RFS with GalaxII JVR.

I tried 4 different kernels... :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] roundbelly:
apply this update as pda in odin right? thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bassie1995:
That's it. Do NOT tick Re-Partition!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DarkSorcerer:
Or you can use Neldar's SGS Kernel Flasher.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] qtekker:
Stratosk, I also want to express my thanks: 2GE29431NY905110U. Enjoy the beer!

The normal kernel is great, but the bigmem is perfect. If I use Sygic and switch to homescreen or another app, than Android kills Sygic because of memory shortage. But with the bigmem kernal Sygic keeps running!

I also bought Chainfire a beer, because CF Root (+ cwm and ext4 app) is the base of Semaphore.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Thanks so much! I really appreciate this!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jdogzilla:
Noob qs ... but what is the advantage of bigmem over regular version? What is the expected performance gain? Is it really noticeable?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Well, the advantage is 17MB more available RAM. Better multitasking. I think you will notice it if you are using multitasking or eating memory applications. Disadvantage: no 720 video recording.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bassie1995:
To overclock, just make a file S05_enable_oc in init.d?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Copy this file (S05_enable_oc) from /res/scripts to init.d. Don't forget to give this executable permissions and reboot
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bassie1995:
Thanks. Permissions just: rwxrwxrwx?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Yes, that's correct.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bassie1995:
Thanks, will do :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Desotho:
My wifi still ain't working with semaphore. Wheter it's at home..or.at work..keeps looking for IP, but can't find it. I guess it has something to do with the odexed JVR. It did flash it with multi CSC from stock JVQ, does that matter? Really can't figure out why this is happening..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
I really don't know. But I think that something is broken in your rom.

Try to enable logger (please read first post) and send the logs.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] qtekker:
I used SGS Kernel Flasher 3 times to:

- flash from DarkCore to Semaphore 1.6.0

- reflash SGS Kernel Flasher

- flash from Semaphore 1.6.0 to bigmem

All 3 times succesfull and no problems at all.

Until I turned my phone off and on. I then got into a bootloop.

I repeated all 3 steps with Odin, and no problems at all.

Anyone experiencing the same with bootloop after flashing with SGS Kernel Flasher?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] O-T:
Why would you reflash SGS kernel flasher? That's an app AFAIK and no kernel.

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darckengel:
It's to flash kernel without using recovery mod ...

Excuse me?! Don't understand the bold part.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darass:
how can i enable ramscript? there is an issue with that... i copied to etc/init.d s97ramscript from Juwe's. And gave premissions to all alr rebot and there are still other values in /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree than in the s97ramscript in etc/init.d . i have reinstalled busybox, installed older version (1.18.1) installedo newest version (1.19.0) and nothing... still the same problem. Can anyone help me?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] qtekker:
I'm sorry. I meant that I reflashed semaphore.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DarkSorcerer:
You flashed semaphore twice? Why?

And when did the bootloops began? Did you enable the reboot after flashing option on SGS kernel flasher?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bassie1995:
Does anyone have an idea why flashing themes ends in bootloops?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
I'm not expert on this but maybe you flash themes that are not built for JVR?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Please try to uninstall extra version of busybox. Kernel has it's own busybox and installing other version may conflict with the embedded.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Uncheck the ram option in tweaks application. This will override your init script
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] qtekker:
I reflashed because Android System showed 38% in battery usage. I thought that I had battery drain.

After flashing with sgs kernel flasher the phone reboots. I can use the phone for days without problems. Bootloops started after I turned the phone off, and later on again. The black screen with white letters samsung galaxy s keeps flashing.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dubberman:
I can't overclock my phone with last build!! I cant see 1200 step in Pimp my cpu or voltage control !!

Anyone could help me with this??

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Did you use the S05_enable_oc script? (please read first post for details)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] RorixRebel:
been using this kernel for a while now, since 1.5

and so far its the best ive used

no complaints at all, works like a charm

thanks

OneNand Mode

they should release semaphore and or Galaxian with OneNand Mode like tegrak kernel has.. it's so amazing fast(=

would be awesome(:

USB tethering No work

Hiya first I want to tell You that Your kernel is the best Ever, so thank you ever so much !

But I have a problem, I moved one week ago so i've no more internet connection atm...

So I tryed to use USB tethering, but when i check It : It check and then Uncheck...

I'm on Semaphore 1.6 with all script activated and executable ...

thank you a lot,

BTW i found a minor bug: in voltage control I can't put Hz To 1000,

only 800 Mhz or 1200 Mhz

Sorry for my bad english, I'm french ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gsw5700:
There is no 1000 step when overclocked, its more efficient this way

Sent using geek power
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] aaron.bufc:
Its not a bug. As far as I know If you haven't copied the overclock script, the max frequency should be 1000Mhz.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bassie1995:
How do I go about getting V6 SuperCharger to work? The settings won't stick...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wudini:
That was the problem, thanks for your help.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
hi,

Do you use the enable_netfilter script? If yes, do you have problem only in USB tethering? Can you use Wifi tethering?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] duan78:
As I said I've enabled every script exept logcat,

So I can overclock to 1200 Mhz, I can undervolt to 800, 400 ...

But I can't "clock" to 1000 Mhz... It's very strange...

Yes I use all script exept logcat, they're in the good folder, with the good right (rwxrwxrwx...)

And no I can't use wifi tethering because my computer haven't wifi card :S

But I can activate it and detect it with my girlfriend's phone So yes wifi tethering work fine, but it's useless for me

(I would like to conect through my phone to a public wifi, i mean use my phone as wifi card... as i did few month ago)

thx for your help and sorry for my bad english !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
In latest version (1.6.0) the oc script is called S05_enable_oc. You have to copy it from /res/scripts since it's different from the old script enable_ocuv (in version 1.5.0).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
It is not strange. In 1.6.0 overclocking replaces the 1000Mhz frequency with 1200Mhz. So, there are always 5 frequency states and only the highest frequency is changed.

I think we have better performance with this.

I've never used USB tethering. Are you sure you doing everything right in your PC?

Maybe someone who use this feature can help us.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stfudude:
anyone here familiar with zach's screenstate script? i'm looking for the correct way to apply this script with semaphore 1.6.0 bm and simplicity 0.40pre.

extra questions:

-how do i apply the script and how to know if the script is being applied or not?

-how do i check what governor is being used while screen on or off?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Correct way is to put it in init.d and set permissions for rwxr-xr-x.

You can't really know if the script is applied or not. But you'll see that your idle drain will lower by a lot (mine is about 2-5% in 12 hours).

You can see it in the script by awake/sleep governor (Put a # to disable a line and remove the # to enable it)

Voltage Control will let you know what current governor you're using. Should be ondemand.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darckengel:
You can also adjust the cpu sampling rate to high value to see the switch between governors after activate the screen.

I have 0-1% usage for 8-10h and i don't use this script.

Btw, i doubt of the interest of switching governors when screen off as the main behavior for screen off is deep iddle state (so governor as no influence) or listen music ( as the CPU stacks at 400Mhz, there's no point to use different governors).

And for the VM settings (the other part of the script), i'm not very familiar with these settings but i'm not sure that it will change anything for the same reasons ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
When the screen is off, it is not necessarily in a deep sleep state. Apps that refreshes itself, polling apps, wifi polling, email,google syncs etc.

Hint: Check the Awake stats in your Battery Use (you'll know what I'm talking about)

These keep the phone awake. And yes, adjusting the CPU sampling rate helps (because that's the exact difference of the governors, with conservative governor having a lower sampling rate hence CPU climbs slower and also a lower threshold, CPU climbs only when over a certain threshold).

The VM settings changes how memory gets swapped/trashed. With a lower threshold, less memory gets swapped/trashed resulting in a lower battery usage.

Edit:

And I do have situations that let me have 0% drain after 8 hours. The battery discharges in a non-linear fashion, hence at certain percentage, the battery discharges a bit slower than normal. That's when the 2-5% changes to 0-1%. Your way tweaks the governor directly, Zach's tweak it only when the screen is off. You'll get a better performance using Zach's script though (at the cost of battery) when the screen is on.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darckengel:
The phone is iddle 8h when i go to sleep, so i always turn all data off (i don't care receiving mails as i sleep, so there's no need to keep it up) so, i most always have 0-1% per night battery consumption (maybe 2-3% some times but it's rare). Semaphore is more battery friendly than talon, it may be the difference...

For the different things wich awakes the phone screen off, i know but it's quite rare, it depends as you mention a lot of you sync/data usage (you don't always need to have wifi/3g/synch active, you can switch 2g just for sync mail, you don't need more). You also can use apps like cpu tuner to switch between data connection types when screen off if you really need it.

I don't say that the script is useless, i just think that the gain is marginal.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] duan78:
Yeah bro everything fine on my comp,

btw i just tryed with my girlfriend's htc and it work !!! so pb come from my I9000 ...

I need internet on my comp, i'm bored to use my grilfriend's notebook 11" ^^

thx anyway
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Actually, the gain is a lot. My phone is awake in some instances of the 12 hours (without sync though) and using Wifi all the time. With 2-5% drain using Wifi for 12 hours (and in some instances 0-1% when battery is almost dry is actually a lot of difference.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] qtekker:
Damn! Today I had the bootloop again.

It has nothing to to with SGS Kernel Flasher, because it was an Odin flash.

What did I do prior to the bootloop?

1. I charged the battery full

2. I put the phone off, waited a few minutes, and put the phone on

And bang: bootloop.

After the latest Odin flash I turned the phone off and on several times to try to reproduce the bootloop, but everything was ok. It seems that I'm the only one with this problem.

Fortunately I made a cwm backup this morning, so I can restore easily.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Sure, my pleasure. Thank you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] aladin6:
stratosk, what is please the best "CPU governor" ? ondemand or powersave or conservative ? Thank you :). For bluetooth problem, i'll test it ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] aladin6:
So, tried it with WIFI off everything is working, then i enabled wifi, rebooted and mobile network is working BUT not with bluetooth! your theory is correct in mine !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Powersave sets the CPU in the lowest frequency level.

Ondemand and conservative scale the frequency according to the needs of the system.

Ondemand set the CPU to the highest immediately when there is load and conservative increases the frequency step by step.

I personally prefer ondemand because of better speed. You may choose conservative if you want better battery life.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] allotrios:
confirmed

if i reboot with wifi off, Bluetooth works fine even with kernel scheduler on.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nik4energy:
ante mori elladara !! best kernel for sgs
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tomeks:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
OK, can you try this please?

Wifi on, mobile network on, bluetooth off then reboot. Then try to turn bluetooth on. I think you will have problem.

I think the best workaround for this issue is to reboot with wifi off.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ishday1:
Hi I did what you said switched wifi off rebooted and yes blue tooth works but as soon as I turned wifi on and off again the blue tooth does not work. If you reboot and turn blue tooth on and off the wifi dont work. I hope you undetstand

Simply honey 3.8 rom

Please look into it i really like your kernal thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tomeks:
you are right, butvit was obce working, i have to try wich option from tweaks is causing that

now i have 'revert to default ' setup and now is exactly as you said bt is not working...

before it was working...

enable kernel scheduler in tweaks

disable wifi

reboot

check bluetooth, wifi, anything you like... they all work plus your phone is faster because kernel scheduler tweak is enabled

The fastest jvp kernel! At 1200 mhz only 2400-2800 quadrant scores but this kernel much faster than Talon's kernel at 1500 mhz..it would be nice a 1500 mhz version from this kernel :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hellfirez1714:

Talon q.scores: 1500mhz 3300-3800
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mucinch:
w.r.t Galaxy S, I've always found that the lower the quadrant score the smoother the overall fluidity of the device is. When I try to increase my quadrant scores, I've always experienced micro-lags when scrolling, opening market etc. Maybe its just my device:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ishday1:

BLN does not work. (sole purpose I want to use this kernel).

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darckengel:
If you have wifi always on, i understand that your phone will awake some times and drains more battery than mine. Personnaly i activate the wifi policy off when screen off. I only activate wifi when i really need that.

The main cause of battery drain is the consumer behavior, you can reduce a lot the battery consumption without doing anything else than just activate what you need when you need it.

What filesystem do you have, have you set journalising off? You may be have some problems with your partition, maybe try to install stock rom using a pit file via odin (repartition ticked) and reflash again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Yeah, but I need my Wifi for Whatsapp and some internet based messaging apps. It needs to be realtime or else it'll defeat its purpose :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darckengel:
And using 2g when screen off? it should be enough to receive the messages and drains much less battery than wifi.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
Switching to 2G will require some key-presses, unless there's an app for that (Tasker?)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] qtekker:
Thx for your repy. I always flash Odin with repartition (512 pit). And I always convert all partitions (including /system) to ext4 using Chainfire's ext4 app. I don't touch journaling, so it's not set to off. And I don't touch the default tweaks.

My phone is alive again: reflash JVR with repartition, flash Semaphome bm, restore cwm. You might be right that it's a filesystem problem. This time I will stay on rfs for a few days to see if it occurs again.

Not too long though, because I experience ext4 as much more responsive that rfs.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darckengel:
CPU tuner is free, and you can set data and wifi policy for almost every situation (wifi, data,sync, bluetooth, freq, governors when screen off, charging, screen on, battery full or almost empty or on call).

BIGMEM 720p Resolution

Folks,

Anyone using the BIGMEM version of Semaphore 1.6.0..?????

How are you getting on with it?

When you say 720p doesn't work, is this the "only thing" that doesn't work? What resolution is 720p (is it 1280 x 720) ?

Does 720x480 still work OK?

Grateful for any responses on this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Only the 1280x720 resolution does not work. Everything else is working as standard version.
