BLN works fine for me with any notification I have configured in the application. Texts, emails, missed calls all work.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] frankie51:
do you have the pro version?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] frankie51:
I installed the pro version, where do i configure the notifications?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] frankie51:
I was reading the reviews and some guy is experiencing the same problems as me and he is on miui also. Maybe its just the miui rom that causes this problem.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Oh that could be the issue as well
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] frankie51:
I just tried wiping and reflashing rom and kernal and that fixed the issue.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Tazdeviloo7:
I love you Mathkid! Awesome kernel. I got one question though, sometimes when I try to unlock my phone it seems the middle part of the screen becomes unresponsive so i can't unlock it fully unless I power off the screen then retry. I've noticed this on earlier versions of your kernel too with the keyboard not responding in that area only. Just wondering if you think this is a kernel problem, CM7RC1 problem, too much undervolt, or defective phone?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Hmm try raising the voltages a bit because I never had that issue
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Tazdeviloo7:
Ok I'll give that a go, going to try the suggested settings on Proton. Did you win the HTC sensation on that contest thing? If so, congrats, you deserve it.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Sometimes proton freezes up so you could write down the recommended ones somewhere and use setcpu to activate them.

And thanks haha, I really like the phone :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Tazdeviloo7:
Do I need proton installed to undervolt? I thought your kernel was pre-UVed. I noticed proton says it's down at 900mv for 100Mhz before I try applying anything.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yeah this is a bit pre-uved so I would raise the voltages up a bit
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] njeske:
No, I have the free version.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
I don't know if the free version lets u disable blinking, does it?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] rougegoat:
It does.

(Edit) I'm wrong on this. My bad. (/Edit)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] njeske:
The free version keeps the lights on solid. I believe the pro version lets you have them blink.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bballa4sho12111:
So what are the differences between the bfs and cfs versions?

And if i were to change from one to the other what all would i have to wipe? what would formating the SYSTEM and DATA do?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HareyCarey:
Cfs = completely fair scheduler, bfs = brain f*ck scheduler. Do a Google search to get a more in depth view. Always wipe cache and dalvik before flashing a kernel.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yep.;)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] DaytonaDU:
No Netflix with 5.5

Using SavagedZen release 4 and Matr1x 4.5 netflix worked. After upgrading to 5.5 Netflix does not.

I switched ROM's to KushDeck's latest 2.3.5 and with builtin kernel and Trinity Netflix works, but with Matr1x 5.5 it does not. I prefer Matr1x but Netflix would be nice.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Lol I have no idea how to incorporate "Netflix support" in a kernel lol...

This also prolly isn't a kernel issue hehe
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] JimboKern:
Netflix works fine for me on Matrix 5.5
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yeah I mean I knew it wasn't a kernel issue...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] david279:
Will this kernel activate voodoo color options in the voodoo control app?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yep, this is voodoo compatible. I don't know what you mean by activate colors??
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] decalex:
I think he means 'enable' the settings in the voodoo app.

er.. kinda obvious.

So what's next for the mighty matr1x kernel? :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Lol...idk yet haha
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] blazelazydays:
for some reason the 5.5cfs download isn't working but the bfs is. maybe a problem with the link or something in mediafire?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] chappy824:
Worked just fine for me......just a min ago.

Sent from my Nexus S 4G
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yeah it definitely works fine...maybe a bad download?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] blazelazydays:
hmm I shall clear my cache and try again. thanks for the kernel kid!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] falterego:
Maybe it's just me, but this kernel seems to be less and less stable with each version. I've always done a wipe of cache and davlik before each rom flash, and as the versions went up, the time between hangs/random reboots went down. Today I reflashed the 5.5 BFS to replace the 5.5 CFS because my phone was frozen when I woke up. Since then it's rebooted twice. Yesterday it only rebooted once on the CFS kernel. I remember the 4.0 being able to go days without having any hang/reboot issues.

Am I missing something else? I dont' use any batt controllers or the batt-cfg setup, and the only apps I run with the exception of a monthly Titanium Backup, are all root-free. What else am I missing?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HareyCarey:
Try manually deleting dalvik cache. Cwm does not always wipe properly. Use Root Explorer or ES File Explorer. That's how I do it each time.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Or raise the voltages
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] sigaiser:
Hey Math,

Do you ever wipe battery stats with your kernels? And if so, when...full charge, depleted, ect.

Thanks.

ns4g...cm7 (nightly)...CFS 5.5
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
No Haha, but I really should from time to time ;)

But you should tho
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] falterego:
Two follow ups.

1. How do I raise the voltages?

2. Would the process then be

a. delete dalvik folder using root explorer

b. wipe cache from CWM

c. install new kernel

d. profit?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
1. Use setcpu

2. Well, its wipe dalvik cache, install zip, then reboot
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Did it work?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Zorachus:
Is this a good kernel for Oxygen 2.2 ROM on my Nexus-S 4G ? I am looking for best battery life over speed, which one should I go with ? 5.5 C or 5.5 B ?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] GeezyAF:
It will work for Oxygen. Matr1x is probably my favorite kernel next to Trinity.

Go with CFS.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
I would go cfs ;)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Zorachus:
Then I can play with the Voodoo control app ? Is that worth trying out ? Does that improve the colors on the screen + sound ?

To customize my Nexus-S some more, do you recommend an alternative launcher like Go Launcher ex or something ?

And do themes from CM 7 work on this ?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yeah voodoo will work and it will help.

Launchers, I don't usually change them but its really up to you.

And yeah, Cm7 themes should work on this
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] blazelazydays:
any idea if miui will work with voodoo?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] GeezyAF:
Its kernel dependant, so probably.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
It should
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] blazelazydays:
clarifying that voodoo does work with miui and for a super amoled screen recommended settings are:

V1 color profile

multipliers:

Red: 2883763840

Green: 3067833920

Blue: 3210999360

gamma:

Red: -47

Green: -44

Blue: -46

amazing deep blacks and very vibrant colors for lower brightness settings. also good battery life
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] falterego:
Ok, so I used ES File Explorer to delete the dalvik folder, then rebooted into CWM and cleared cache and dalvik (just to be sure) and reflashed the 5.5 cfs kernel. I then used set cpu to set the voltages at 1000 MHz (1210 mV) and applied. After about 8 hours the phone restarted and got stuck on the boot animation loop. I did the same delete/clear cache and then flashed the 5.5 bfs and used set cpu to configure the same settings. It lasted a day or so after this before the first reboot and hang on boot animation.

I think tomorrow I'm going to roll back to 5.0 bfs since that seems more stable for me. Anybody else having any issues? If there were some kind of debug log I could send your way to troubleshoot I'd gladly do it.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] blazelazydays:
I'm on 5.5bfs right now running MiUi and haven't had any reboot issues. hopefully switching to 5.5cfs soon as it seems more stable however the bfs has been stable for me so far.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Falterego, for each speed (ghz) raise the voltage by 10
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bigtoysrock:
Is that what they are dropped from originally? Cause I put all mine down another 20 from where they are set on the kernel. I get no bootloops either. Set to 800 max cause mine after 2 days it only hit 1.0 for 2.34mins. So figured could run it lower and expected lag, but none other than in the browser like normal.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Zorachus:
Cool thank you. Looks great :) :) :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
No I dropped mine a lot more, I am just saying that because it might be more stable for him
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] falterego:
Airtight. Bumped the voltages up like yousaid. I have mine limited to 800 as well, so we'll see if this helps. Still the most stable kernel other than netarchy that I've used.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yeah, let's see how these voltages work out for ya, lemme know what happens! ;)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] onigiri1692:
I'm curious Kid, what voltages are you running at?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
I don't use my nexus much any more ;)

But the voltages for v5.5 is what I ran it at
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bigtoysrock:
Spoiled little... j/k
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] synaesthetic:
I seem to have the Magical Binned Too Low Silicon blessing or something. Every piece of technology I own somehow always ends up remarkably tolerant of extreme overclocks and undervolts... :D
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Maximilian Mary:
Think so? Try the trinity 1.666 kernel? :eek:
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Go for it. Can you handle it? Lol
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] synaesthetic:
Anyone else seeing their button backlights turn on even when the screen's off if you touch them?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] decalex:
Yes, that's BLN (back light notification). Scan thru the thread for it. It's baked into the kernel, but u can disable it with the bln app on the market.

. . NS4G . . CM7 . .
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Lol yeah
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Zorachus:
I did not know BLN was baked into this kernel ? Because I downloaded and installed BLN from the market to allow for the flashing when I miss texts and calls, but are you saying I don't need the actual app from the market, the kernel itself does that already ?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] synaesthetic:
I'm finding that even with deep undervolt my battery is dying very, very fast... I haven't conditioned the battery yet, but I've heard so many conflicting reports on the idea of battery calibration...

And it isn't just because I'm playing with the phone a lot, either. It just drains very quickly. Is it really worth it to do a battery calibration via deleting battery stats in CWR and draining the thing dry?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Wipe battery stats and raise voltages a bit
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Maximilian Mary:
The kernel makes it possible. The app does the work. (Yes, you still need the app.)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yeah make sure to get the app
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] anaglich:
Any luck completly disabling the backlights yet kid?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Lol, I said I have been very very busy w/ school..I dont have ANY time for android anymore lol..

But I will make time and get it done asap haha.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] anaglich:
Dont let me distract you from your studies. Appreciate your work and look forward to whenever you can implement this.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Cool! Ty haha!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] falterego:
Alright, so I bumped up the voltages like you said. It improved the stability for the most part, and I think my battery life has been extended by about 15% or so. The phone froze on me this morning, so I had to do a battery pull, and I didn't go into setcpu to reset voltage settings. I realized this when the phone restarted about 4 hours after the battery pull.

I wish there was some way I could generate a crash log to review. I'm sure I have something setup wrong and it would probably be a quick find if I had some way of knowing just what took a dump all over the party.

Also, I've seen a couple BLN control apps in the market. Anybody have a recommendation for one that can do a pulse of the lights? It can be hard to see if the lights are on or if it's just the sun is just bouncing off the screen.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yeah its definitely in the market
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bigtoysrock:
BLN control pro can flash them.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yep
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] jjhrrsn:
Sucks you're so busy, you were ahead of the game imo
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Dude v6.0 is in the works ;)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] jjhrrsn:
Gooood news any details :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yup.

Adding 940mhz and fixing voltages, tun, and ezekeels backlight dimmer. So far the oc and uc are in and its being tested haha.

So once thats good ill add the touchkey dimmer.

Is there anything else you wanna suggest? I'll look into anything haha
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] jjhrrsn:
Sounds great. I'm constantly back between you and Trinity. I'm starting to like the direction of devs working on battery life and performance. Oc to 1.4 is fun but I'd never leave it on that setting. These phones kill the battery for me, love having the option to conserve. Trinity new kernel is killer battery the tuv88 but so is yours when uc to 800

*edit

My gf has a stock evolution 4g and it constantly dies. She wont let me mess with it :(
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Ah sweet! Testing shows battery to be great so far, but its different on each phone ;)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] jjhrrsn:
Great news :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bigtoysrock:
One question or whatever it may be. With bln its only connected so to speak with noticifcations. Any possible way for it to work with charging or anything else? IDK, like when its charging they are doing one thing and when full doing another thing? Wait this is a horrible question. Ugh I need to quit talking out my....
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] tailsthecat3:
You need the app only to control the bln. Bln works without the app
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bigtoysrock:
Not what I ment. Was talking about it in respect to charging.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
I don't know if that's possible, but I will ask neldar.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
But here's the thing. Say if your phone is charging, then you get a notification when its charging. Then the lights are gonna come on, dont u think?

I kinda find it useless lol
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bigtoysrock:
I think that's why I had said oh hell that's dumb or something like that. Its weird how random thoughts that your write out seem, well not like a good idea anymore. LOL They could even get you shot! :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Jeremiah239:
Why doesn't this have EXT4?

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] driguez:
For those looking for better battery life, I have lowered all voltages by 50 using setcpu and batt life has been noticeable better. tried 75 and I would get random lock ups, this is using CFS. If you go for it make sure you uncheck set at boot before testing it out.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yep, whatever works for you! ;)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bigtoysrock:
What's your battery looking like? I'm sitting at 12hrs with just over 2hrs of screen time. Light to moderate use and at 51%.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bigtoysrock:
Was just curious about his cause its uved by 50. I know you uved ontop of what was already done, how much did you go?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] NYYFan325:
Actually I reverted back believe it or not. I'm just using the stock kernel UV and that it. I had it lower originally but I think I went to aggressive and got a lock up. Didn't care much to tinker so I just left it at whatever math has it set at.

When using Voodoo after a reboot the headphone amp always drops back to -3db any one know why? Regardless of rom or kernel this occurs. Great kernel thanks for the work!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fergie716:
So I rooted my dad's phone recently, threw CM7 N80 on it. He was having all sorts of issues with other kernels (phone wouldn't "wake up" after pressing power button). I was scrambling to find a stable kernel to last him because I'm going away for the semester. Flashed 5.5 CFS and he's (well, both of us) had zero problems. Just wanted to say thanks. Now I won't have to hear him complain 50 miles away while I'm studying lol

Thanks for the reply. I know what they are named, wondering what they are for. I like your kernel but don't need voodoo, bln, etc. On a backup, I deleted the other two modules but couldn't tell anything from it. Thank you

Yep no probs ;)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] tailsthecat3:
If I delete the the two other than the bcm4239 I can't tell any difference. The above mentioned module loads with the stock kernel, wondering what the other two are for in 5.5. And whether it's bad to delete them. Thank you!!
