Hi. Im using latest semaphore with semaphore app. Looks great.

What is the default samsung low memory killer? Is it 32mb?

Edit. Ok,i searched a bit and read in the semaphore app thread that 48mb was default samsung lmk setting:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] HM.Carbide:
Are you undervolting the lower frequencies?

The ondemand governor jumps directly from 100mhz to 1300mhz, but the voltage needs some time to increase.

So it is not good to undervolt any frequence, as the voltage needs a bit longer to be increased.

If this doesn't help, the 1300 has to be overvolted a bit, but this is a bit more risc.

With conservative governore the frequences and the voltages are increased step by step, so it is easier to use higher frequences. Or to use lower voltages as with ondemand.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gsw5700:
Folks, I've been messing with the VM cache settings and would like to put them back to standard. Can anyone please tell me what the standard cache settings are for Semaphore are, namely :-

SWP, VCP, DEC,DWC,DRA,DBR?

If the standard settings are good, I can finally get rid of Galaxy Tuner!

Many Thx.

1100 step

To stratosk:

What ever i do i can't make 1100 step to work.1300 and 1200 works ok,cpu spy see it butt 1100 not.

Had a few freeze at 1100.

The 1.8.0 is a very cool Kernel.

I use the overclocking.When i use setcpu it is overclocked to 1200 mhz. I want to set it quickly with setcpu to 1000, but the next under 1200 is 800 mhz.

Can you integrade more voltages to use it with a cpu tuner please?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ssdd48:
Use the Semaphore Script Manager that comes with it to set it to 1000 ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] freakerload:
i have now the addons installed but i can not change the scaling you mean there.

Default is 100,200,400,800,1000 at 1200 overclocking 1200,800,400,200,100.

I want to set it in 100 steps to save battery to enable 500 or 600 with setcpu.

In overclocking ist from 1200 to 800 the next setting.How to make it in 100 steps?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Sorry for misunderstanding. I though the question was about the less ram free. It's about 0.6MB.

Indeed 03 optimization generates large files. But I used LZMA compression to initramfs and that decreased the total file size.

@all

I will not be able to follow this thread for few days.

Sorry for this, but something unexpected happened.

I will be back in a few days read all the reports about the beta and I will finalize this version.

Thank you all for your support and for using the stable versions and for testing betas.

i hv a question.. does anyone had a problem with the front camera when making a video call via 3G? the visual became soo dark... and what actualy related to this front camera problem? is it related to ROM, kernel or the camera app itself... before upgrade it doesn't happen like this =S

Using stock JVS with semaphore 1.7.5

@stratosk

flashed to ur new 1.8 and everything works awesome m8.

BUT^^

I OC'ed to 1,3(without UV) and everything is stable but in some games I have crashes.

Does this mean my CPU can't handle it or is just the voltage u set in default too low?

Is there a way to increase the voltage a bit to test?

Now I'M waiting like all the others here for ur new JVT kernel^^

greetz m8 and keep up ur gd work.

JVT_1.8.0rc1

- compiled with JVT initramfs

- Updated Semaphore Script Managert to v0.50 (thanks to HM.Carbide)

- HM.Cardide's Addon scripts.

- updated Superuser application to version v3.0.2

- Slightly increased 1300MHz frequency to 1375mV

- Added addon script to change /cache to virtual 50MB (in case of having problems with Market)

overclocking via new scriptmanager ends up in crashes...

phone goes black and I have to remove battery and after reset it's all on 1ghz...even setcpu doens't detect 1,3ghz.

Copying 1,3 script manually has a much worse effect. Phone freezes goes black and doesn't start up anymore. Just the blinking "S".

What can I do? with 1,8b1 everything worked fine

Maybe I'm wrong but I don't think like that. Latest JVT and clean install + latest rc1

ext4 manager can't convert. When I press convert it goes to cwm.

(Very smooth looking)

Cache is very good option! I think that caused it. I will disable and try again now..

Edit: Solved: I disabled cache for market as first. ( I enabled before try convert ext4) Now converts normally. Still best kernel about months. Only reason for I kill my cm7 set.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darckengel:
More freq steps (but it will break some DVFS ... ):

The gap between 800Mhz and 1300Mhz is big, it could be usefull to add some steps to save a little battery. More steps with on demand scheduler don't impact responsivness but could greatly increase battery life.

Btw, could you make a version with this patch applied in order to test it:

Συγχαρητήρια Στράτο...

Simply perfect work.

I tried JVT with cfroot (Before 1.8 rc2 comes out) and i lost Bluetooth file transfer functionality (all was there, just did n't work).

Just by flashing Semaphore 1.8.0 rc2, it worked immediately...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gsw5700:
UV does not cause lags, it just allows the phone to run with less power, this means the phone will run a bit cooler and battery life will be slightly extended. If you UV too much, you will get FC's, reboots etc. Every phone is slightly different and will need different voltages to run. check out the UV thread for more info.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Can you please specify if you have enabled other features. I tried kernel scheduler without problem.

@stiwipl

undervolting may cause reboots if you select too low values for your phones. But I don't think it can cause lags.

@tiwag

If you mean Semaphore Script Manager, I don't think it's buggy. It handles the init scripts of the kernel. Maybe some scripts need some tuning but the app is doing it's job just fine.

Remember that you can enable/disable these features (overclocking for example) on the fly without reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
I don't think that I want to add more freq steps. And since ondemand is the default governor I don't think that this gap between 800 and 1300 is the problem for stability.

Sorry, no time to include this patch in 1.8.0. I will try the patch for next versions.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
this is a quote from bilboa/kang, while discussing the ondemand behavior on glitch thread a while back ago.

anyway, i don't have a problem if you think you won't add more frequency steps. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
But if the device is on 100Mhz step it jumps immediately to the highest frequency. Why adding more steps could increase stability?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] HM.Carbide:
New Version of Semaphore Script Manager v0.51

Changelog v0.51:

- Support for Test Scripts

New Category: "Test (reseted on reboot)"

Scripts are used from SDCard /SemaphoreScripts/tests/ or (/res/scripts/tests/)

see AddOn_for_testing_OC

- Only one SU process, to prevent "su-rights granted" during property change

AddOn_for_testing_OC:

- Allows to test OC frequences. If something goes wrong, reboot will reset to default.

This version will be included by stratosk.

For testing earlier, please go to Semaphore Script Manager Thread
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
iirc, with ondemand it scaling up per frequency as fast as it scaling down.

from my observation with ondemand - i use system panel app, great app.

idle : around 100mhz

click a button : 200-400mhz

scrolling : 800-1200/1300mhz (depend which max freq you use) - and it freezes with these freq scaling.

if it is this what you mean...

edit: forgot to quote
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
I mean that if you are in idle (100Mhz) and start scrolling the freq will jump to the highest (1200/1300) immediately (because of ondemand). I can't understand why an extra step (1000Mhz) will stabilize this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
to be honest i'm not sure either xD

but the freeze is happen when its scaling down from the max freq to the lower.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] burakgon:
Hi guys bad news. I reflashed my sgs stock JVT 2 times and same problem:

When I play dungeon defenders after flashing semaphore so smooth BUT, when I try open dungeon defenders second time = force close. Restarted 5 times. Same.

And Jellywars doesnt work after first playing. But when I get titanium backup and cm7, same apps works great. Any ideas?

Now flashing talon kernel for test is it rom or kernel issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jugster:
As someone said, the frequency and voltage does not settle simultaneously, specifically the voltage is a bit slow. Having more steps will cause a filtering effect that mitigates that problem to some extent. Having said that, I think adding more overclocking options to this great kernel will be beneficial for few and cause many that will have to read through all the instability problems with higher freqs quite some pain.

At the end of the day however, your kernel, your decisions.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] currydude:
It's more like a /data problem, clear data for the specific app, then try again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] burakgon:
But not specific. 2 and more apps. And with same backup data on cm7 works %100.

Edit: now for 7 apps.

Edit 2: Flashed talon and all apps works great :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] andip71:
Stratosk,

maybe one more idea before you release the kernel.

Mialwe managed for the midnight kernel to continue playing a custom boot animation while Dalvik cache is being rebuilt.

I know this is not important but just cosmetic gimmick. But would make your kernel even more perfect.

Cheers

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] burakgon:
I think this is a major issue.

No oc/uv no scripts no ext4 just flashed semaphore.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
I'm not sure I understood what you have done. I'm downloading dungeon defenders (god, this is huge! remember this is SGS not PS3 :))

@AndiP

I'm afraid It is not possible since I don't compile CWM (at the moment)

@jugster

This is 100% true. This is the reason that I didn't implement OC more than 1.2Ghz since now.

Anyway this is an attempt to more OC but it is not my major concern. As I said If OC to 1.3 does not work to all devices that's it. Sorry, but I'm not going to spend more time on this.

I would like OC to 1.1GHz and I will try to find a way on this.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
I'm always on stock rom + ext4 + 1.2Ghz. TW launcher. Yes, maybe it's free ram related. I don't use widgets. Maybe bigmem version help on this. I just restarted and played again. No problem. I don't know if i need to play for hours to reproduce this though.

@thalib_atc

No, this kernel is for stock samsung roms (and based on stock roms)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] burakgon:
Maybe its my fault... No bugs with this kernel. I didn't find any. Just for feedback. Really smooth when compare to others. Also we have a nice script manager. Just for know. If you want to convert ext4 be sure to 50 mb cache option is not ticked in semaphore script manager.

Thanks again!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
Thanks, yes this is useful information I will write it on first post.

Edit: written!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tiwag:
It is a nice gimmick, but i don't need it. Also i can't use it, because i edited my ocuv script with my uv-settings. And i was not able to save my edited scripts into /res/scripts permanently. After a reboot the initial files were restored. But if you want to switch oc on the fly you'll also need to set uv settings if it doesn't run stable with same uv.

Then i tried to use the scripts from the sdcard, but the menu was distorted then (i posted this already).

Maybe these issues are features rather than bugs ....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stratosk:
HM.Carbide fixed this in his last versions. Scripts should work from scdcard and you may change the uv values to work as you need. Also, in his last version (I will include in final release) there is a test script option. You may put there oc scripts just for testing (more info in his thread).

But, if 1.7.5 is suitable for you, no problem. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] habylab:
Stratosk, you are a genius, that is all.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] darckengel:
For the stability questions:

If you have at 1.3Ghz a CPU load between 55% and 80% (for some secs) the cpu will switch every 40 000 microsecs between 800Mhz and 1.3Ghz frequency, that means that it will also switch between 1375mV and 1200mV.

Some phones seems to not support so much voltage changes (some users reported that on talon thread too) and adding a 1Ghz step will 1°) reduce the voltage value difference between the switchs and 2°) add a chance that at this new step it will not suffer more switchs and reduce the number of jumps (or suppress it for some tasks).

On talon thread, many users reported that adding the extra step increased their stability.

Hope that my explanations are clear :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pikachu01:
It is more stable as you don't spend time on that particular frequency for long periods till it becomes unstable.

If you limit the min/max frequency to that particular frequency, and use Rockplayer to play an RMVB file with software decoding, you'll freeze in less than 2minutes. This would mean that the frequency is unstable from the get-go, you're just not seeing the failure early. A side warning though, using unstable frequency and voltages will substantially increase wear and tear of the CPU. How much of wear and tear? No one really knows.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] XuperLugia:
Not at all, Sempahore is for Samsung based roms, MIUI is based on CM7 so it needs a kernel that's built for it like the ones from Tk-Glitch or zacharias.maladroit.
