Thanks for your efforts.

The battery life definitely improved on CM7.1 RC1.
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
Just an update, we have the important changes merged in again, including the camera issue for the i9000. We're working on adding a few more things (like BLN and printk) and then there will be new builds out. Thank you for your patience. As always, please don't ask for an ETA, it will be ready when it's ready, probably within the week. Don't forget to hit the thanks button!
[Vibrant Android Development] :
this is the best kernel for miui. its the only one that supports the front facing camera and I hope it stays that way. only thing I loose from using it is off charging, but its ffc > off charging :)
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
New kernel probably coming tonight.

Hi sixstringsg,

Just flashed the LL version and I was wondering if there's a way to make the capacitive buttons turn off after being pressed without having to actually lock the phone? Watching videos at night with the buttons lit make the experience not so well :D

Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] flapane:
Does the latest v12 require a particular bootloader? I don't know if I have a Froyo or GB one (it would be great if somebody could help me to identify it in some way).

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
There is a setting in the CM7 settings about that.

@flapane: If you have CM7 running fine, then this will work for you. CM7 REQUIRES that you are running the Froyo/Eclair bootloaders in order to be installed (it doesn't work with GB ones). So if it's running good, then you have that.
[Vibrant Android Development] flapane:
Glad to hear it, thanks.

Can't wait to flash it, the undervolted amoled screen should help improving battery life a lot.

edit: As for capacitive buttons, I'm digging into CM7 settings, without luck atm.
[Vibrant Android Development] Cesarp 24:
We don't have bln support on the new kernels correct? And my market disappeared I installed it again and it keeps force closing.

[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
Did you read my changelog a few posts up? It specifically says BLN. And the market is ROM related, not kernel. Try fixing permissions, clearing caches, and wiping the Apps data. As far as the bottom lights staying on, we know about it, it's a rom tweak not kernel so I'll do it later. And actually, people on the stock kernel are complaining about the opposite.

All I know is that I can see a "SAMSUNG" logo just before the Glitch bootloader image appears. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] cezzarmicu:
Thanks, but I'm on stock miui and I don't see any setting for that. I downloaded bln free version and it didn't help. Glitch v11 does not have this issue though so I'm guessing it is part of it being still a beta release which I hope would be fixed with the final release
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
as far as I know, that CM7 settings doesn't work at the moment. I would love if it did though.
[Vibrant Android Development] stevedrz:

[Vibrant Android Development] Tha Maxx:
Just a quick question. On all previous versions of Glitch we were able to flash, now we can't? (miui) Also we would use your kernel as our FFC kernel cause it wouldn't break the camera.Now it does.. All help would be appreciated. Thank you in advamce! cheers
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
Why can't you flash?
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
After flashing this Kernel, the internal SD card is not getting mounted.

What could be wrong?
[Vibrant Android Development] Tha Maxx:

i can confirm that i am on the glitch v12 b3 And i Am able to see my sd card for what its worth.Running ReVaMpEd ss-9
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
None of the previous ones will work with newer builds, a piece of upstream stuff changed that caused bootloops when you mismatch.
[Vibrant Android Development] Tha Maxx:
so then my next questions going to be what was taken out of the new glitch that caused the breakage of the FFC?
[Vibrant Android Development] Dougfresh:
Been using glitch 11LL which is my favorite kernel. Now can't completely install.b3 works great except for those pesky led lights always on.Is there a fix for this.Staying with stock kernel for now.

[Vibrant Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
Hmm...have had NO problems of any sort with the newest kernel but I feel it drains battery very fast.

It sleeps a lot, no problems there but on idle, I calculated it dies in 12.5 hours with NO use. Just idling connected to a wifi and having cell service. That is with an extended 1650mah battery (7% over stock). I feel the other CM7 kernels weren't doing this. Any way to figure out what is draining the battery and or a fix for it?

My GPS drivers are disabled btw.
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
We didn't change anything since the last beta that should cause battery drain.
[Vibrant Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
I know. Last Beta had the same problem for me unfortunately. At least on recent nightlies. I don't remember on older nightlies, maybe it was better then but on new ones its almost horrible. Both old and new ones lol.

Still, all things considered, an amazing kernel.

Eh. I killed my luck. Phone froze with the screen off and the LEDs on. Interestingly enough, when pressing the power button for 2 sec, it vibrated which means it wasn't a kernel death...just some sort of bug. Was on nightly #126. Updating to latest one now and will see if any improvements occur.
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
Any graphic designers use this kernel? I'm looking for a banner to put in my/other team member's signature, and I was wondering if anyone was interested in making one for me. PM me if you are.
[Vibrant Android Development] d_phekt:
Anyone able to get BLN to work on MIUI SS-10? I have the BLN Pro app and tried Blinky and can't seem to get it going.
[Vibrant Android Development] strictlyrude27:
I was in the same boat with OMFGB, but that's not a CM7 derivative so I can't say if it's the ROM or the kernel. I will say that there's an option to use the phone's LEDs there and that tends to work with other kernels.
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
It's still not perfect, development on that end is continuing until we get a good solution.

[Vibrant Android Development] gunks:
I'm attempting to calibrate my battery. I've drained to zero twice already off the latest B13 and when I plug it in to power and try to turn the device on it shows the battery charging symbol but will not boot. Initially I fixed the problem by going into recovery (using the 3 button method) and cleaning the kernel files and reflashing B13. So it's happened a second time now, just curious if anyone else might be having this problem. I'm running the biffmod ROM.
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
Unplug it, then boot it up. It's an upstream issue, it's either have that issue or no LPM at all.
[Vibrant Android Development] gunks:
Not a problem at all... Thank you for your work and efforts. I had to lookup what LPM stood for, heh.
[Vibrant Android Development] flapane:
Speaking of ML versions, it seems that v12 granted me a -50mV downvolt at 1000mhz, while it froze with v11.
[Vibrant Android Development] EnemyOfGlaDOS:
..perfect example of why you should try all 3 leakages and play around.. see which one your phone likes. :D nice!
[Vibrant Android Development] kaintfm:
Possible relevant info: I'm on MIUI Revamped SS-10 with Glitch V12 Beta 3 ML using Pimp My CPU.

I was in for a similar surprise when I switched from HL to ML. Unless I used Conservative governor, I was stuck with -75uv for 800mhz and below or else I'd get errors during music playback, or worse, reboots. I could get 1300mhz stable with no voltage change, but no more.

Switch to ML governor, and I'm running 1440, 1400, 1300, & 1200 at -50uv, 1000 at -75uv, 800 & 400 at -100uv, 200 at -125uv, and 100 at -150uv. Survived a lengthy stress test as well as normal use.

I don't pretend to know the specifics of what you tweaked or how you figured it out, but if I weren't an Atheist, you'd get a big, hearty "God Bless You, Sir!"

I'm very tempted to try out LL, but with those settings stable I don't want to tempt fate.
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
I'm glad it's working well for you!
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
Public service announcement: first of all this was posted in the forum of five devices, so if something in this post doesn't apply to you, ignore it. Now on to the info: for everyone asking, Tk-Glitch is doing much better. He might not be in the forums for a while, so I will still be maintaining them. He is feeling a lot better though. Next, we feel like V13 is nearing completion, so no new builds will be made until then. We know about all the small bugs, none of them are terrible, all can be worked around or ignored, and they will all be fixed in V13. That said, if a nightly breaks the kernel again, I will release an interim kernel that works for that nightly. Speaking of V13, here's what to expect: everything in past kernels, with all the bugs worked out, plus a few surprises :) so for the i9000, you have your last builds before V13. For the vibrant and captivate, I'll make you builds with gingerbread bootloader compatibility, and that will be it until V13.

[Vibrant Android Development] bdubs4200:
Awesome kernel. Loving the look of the custom recovery. But what's screenslate scaling all about??
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
That changes what governor is in use when the screen is on versus off.
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
So, I've been seeing a lot of these ROM's based on CM7, some even using this kernel. Most of them are bad, or don't get updated, or don't offer anything over the stock CM7 experience. If I made one and updated it say once a week, would anyone be interested? If so, what would you want in it? The glitch kernel would be included obviously.
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
Actually, now it's a biffmod issue. The current version of CM7 works better.
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
If it was up to me, I would like to see a basic stock CM7 with the GPS fix and updated GLitch kernels. That's all I ever do to my ROM's so that would make me happy :)

Loving this glitch kernel btw. I am able to UV on frequencies I wasn't able to on other kernels. THanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
What GPS fix are we talking about? I don't have a vibrant. And it would go through ROM manager, so it would update automatically.
[Vibrant Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
I'm actually not interested in that as I follow the CM7 changelog and update when I see fit. Some others might be though.

My suggestion is for you to continue working on the kernel. I'd much rather have a solid, non-crashing and downright fast kernel that gets updated as CM7 does rather than another CM7 ROM and less work on the kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] bdubs4200:
Agreed ^^^ this kernel is amazing. Omfgb 9/22 and trigger 8/22 both with this kernel, fantastic. Thanks for your hard work. ( I flashed espresso, must say I was let down.... seemed like a nightly. Those "roms" are weird... flashed back to trigg with this no more than ten minutes after)
[Vibrant Android Development] zul8er:
V3 require a froyo bootloader, or can it be used with a gingerbread bootloader also?
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
I will build you a gingerbread bootloader version (that is backwards compatible with froyo) right now. I forgot I was going to do that.
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:

[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
Its a simple .sh script that's adds a couple files. But I would have to agree with alienz about focusing on the kernel, it is a work of art. Then again, its always fun to venture off and try other things :)

Love the kernel!
[Vibrant Android Development] strictlyrude27:
Aside base CM7, there are a couple things I would like to see:

gekkekoe123's BT GPS implementaton

Auto-changing battery and signal color change, based on strength (See Trigger ROM or OMFGB)

For the Vibrant specifically: 911 fix

Of course, Glitch Kernel :)

A lot of this was already done with Trigger (although BT GPS needs to be updated, and you could probably move "Extra Tweaks" into CM settings if you'd like); but Roman quit developing Trigger in favor of OMFGB. His Github is still available though; that might give you a nice base to start with if you pump out ROMs for all SGS variants. BT GPS in particular could be quite useful.
[Vibrant Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
This combined with the new 1800mah Samsung battery and some UV make the battery life on CM7 VERY good btw. Try it out.
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
Are you talking about that size of battery fitting in the vibrant?

EDIT: NM, saw your post in thread "1800 mAH genuine Samsung battery - Will it fit vibrant?".

That's pretty bad ass, so is there much of a difference?

If so, I'm definitely buying one ASAP.
[Vibrant Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
20% more than stock....provided your stock was brand new.

Real world you should probably see 25% difference or even 30% due to your old battery being well...worn-out. I think that's significant. I'm currently testing mine still so can't comment on it yet but the first charge DID last me longer than my stock battery by a visible amount. I'll put solid numbers in once I test.

Anybody have any good ideas for file hosting? (Don't suggest multiupload or anything like that, I'm not going to spend the time to do that). My web host got a little annoyed with the number of "unrelated" files I have on my site, so I might have to find another.
[Vibrant Android Development] strictlyrude27:
Dropbox. 2GB is probably sufficient to start out if you're only going to use that to host kernels and occasional ROMs.

If you don't have a .edu email address, PM me and I can hook you up with double space for referrals. Maybe users of the work can sign up with your referral URL as a way to "donate" to the cause?

(if you do choose this route, PM me so you can use my referral URL - we both get 500MB extra space if you do so!)
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
I can't script dropbox uploads though. I'm looking for more along the lines of something with FTP. I didn't know that .edu's got double space for referrals though, I'll look into that. I might just talk to my host, and see if they will actually do anything, or if there is an add-on pack that I need to get for file hosting. http://fileburst.com/ looks good...
[Vibrant Android Development] hurtz777:
Mediafire is very fast and dependable with very little ads and no waiting time for downloaders.
[Vibrant Android Development] strictlyrude27:
Would you need to though? If you set up Dropbox properly on your computer and set your build target location to the Dropbox folder, the build will automatically sync to Dropbox; you could then share the link to that folder publicly.
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
That's true. I would need two accounts though. One for testers and one for releases, since I can't password protect folders.

Edit: Maybe I could selectively share... I don't know dropbox that well.
[Vibrant Android Development] strictlyrude27:
You don't need two accounts - just create two folders in the root Dropbox directory - one called "Releases" and one called "Testers". Just share the link to the Releases folder, and keep the link to Testers private (and of course give it to your testers). Or, "invite collaborators" to the Testers folder.

IMO it's much less complicated than setting up ftp.

If you do choose this route, sign up with http://db.tt/bjxBkxl . PM me or hit me on Google Talk if you want help with this; I've set up collaborative app-writing with Dropbox before. It's quite powerful.
[Vibrant Android Development] sixstringsg:
Yeah, I modified my post. The last issue I have with it is if we want to be technical about fair use, I should have the paid account, at which point another service would be cheaper. I'll see.
[Vibrant Android Development] strictlyrude27:
mmkay. not sure if fair use would be an issue..? relevant policies are at https://www.dropbox.com/acceptable_use and https://www.dropbox.com/acceptable_use#terms . Dropbox makes no distinction between "personal use" and "public use"; paid accounts just get more space is all. It's fundamentally designed to be a collaboration tool..
