bradbusa- I do use more than 2 UV settings, but when I am just flashing a kernel for the first time, I tend to leave it where I have learned it traditionally works on my device for the first 24 hours. Then after I have established my known working settings (again for my device only) are stable, I begin to tweak settings more, and attempt to shut off more frequencies. I personally do not like running as many freqs as I am now, but stability seems more certain with a more gradual stairstep. When I start tweaking more I will adjust the UV settings more aggressively, and I will also shut down more CPU frequencies. Again, I just start with what I have experienced to be a stable base, so if I run into trouble later I know it is my settings, not the kernel I just flashed.

Some people may need to adjust their UV more for each frequency to get initial stability, some people may need(or want) no UV at all, etc... Each device is unique in what it is capable of. I learned my lesson with Infusion 1.0 when I had some crazy UV settings all the way down to -200+ on the 100mhz, which I believe is what corrupted my internal SD card, and caused me to have to use the unbricker :( So now I am more careful and methodical.

And anybody that didn't read it above on previous pages from me or others... I have personally experienced SetCPU to cause erratic behavior with Infusion 1.8 that is repairable by deleting settings & SetCPU then downloading voltage control it makes me sad, because i like SetCPU so much better.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bedwa:
Yes, 2.0 is my goal and froyo final goal. If you want to see the main clock areas, look at the 1.8 and 1.5 commits.....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
It's on his public github.

Beware: public githubs can have some dangerous **** in them. As in use my "charginghacks" branch at your own risk for example. I've asked bedwa and drowningchild to hold off on integrating that branch until I've done a LOT more research.

Edit: As to crazy "burst" battery drain, keep in mind a few things:

1) Sometimes starting an app can cause it to start chomping battery

2) Weak cell signal kills battery regardless of kernel

3) I think our fuel gauge is a bit wacky. As an example, at one point today I dropped 10% pretty fast. Then I threw it on the charger for 20 minutes and regained 8-9%. Even with my charging tweaks I've never seen charging THAT fast - so my suspicion is that the initial drop was bogus to begin with - I gained 9% rapidly because I never lost it in the first place.

*grumble grumble* CONFIG_LOCALVERSION is bad news for us for whatever reason...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LinuxBozo:
Bad news because Samsung has compiled their modules to do kernel version checks. Just FYI. They won't inject using insmod if you change kernel version at all, which means, bye bye STL/BML devices, like, say, /system
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
I was guessing it might be related to those Samsung proprietary mods... Thanks for the confirmation.

2ghz would be that single core holy grail of matching the 1ghz dual core.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Actually since a lot of workloads don't split well across multiple cores, for many workloads we probably have already matched if not exceeded it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bedwa:
I would say so seeing that I was playing with a stock Sensation in the T-Mo store, I did a quad score on both and while they were both in the 2200 range, my Infuse won by about 20 points... lolz......

Plus it seemed snappier. ;)

the "reply" function in my email stopped working after 1.8 i fusion update

I cant reoly to email anymore. email force closes when i try to reply to an email. .. any thoughts?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bradbusa:
My email force close when I try to read an unread message. Also happens when I mark a read message as unread. Could be unrelated though. Try wiping cache and/or clearing data. This didn't work for me though
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Does it improve if you disable OC?

Does it start working again if you downgrade back to whatever you were running previously?

I find it highly unlikely that a new kernel affected this behavior unless the new OC speeds are causing instability, and as I've said before - everyone's phone is different and many will never reach 1.8.

If it does appear specific to this kernel - please post a logcat including timestamps taken immediately after the FC.

Edit: I've seen a few reports in the Infused thread of problems with the email app after applying the 1.5.1 maintenance release. Did you happen to also apply that recently?

Unfortunately I use GMail which is a completely separate app from the email app. Reading/replying works fine for me.

Oh, as far as other non-OC stuff that's in the pipeline (drowningchild and myself are both testing this and some of it has already been pulled by bedwa - drowningchild is the one that applied most of these commits, I've cherrypicked a bunch of them into my tree):

TinyRCU (not sure how much this will actually improve things but it IS a common tweak in Android kernels)

A bunch of I/O schedulers including BFQ. BFQ is fairly common on other devices.

Backport of 2.6.37's ext4 driver - numerous bugfixes and small performance tweaks - Thank LinuxBozo for this one, both DC and I cherrypicked his commit against the Defuse tree.

drowningchild is working on porting other governors such as interactive and smartass. I'm probably going to cherrypick his interactive patches later this week and test them.

When I go in to voltage control it only let's me control from 1.4. Anything above has a red light next to it? Any idea why cpu master shows it able to be oc at 1.8

Installing Infusion

So I've been reading through this entire thread and I have 2 quick questions:

1. I see that there is an update to the audio device, any more info on this?

2. Which of the three files included must I install? I am guessing the ...1.8.zip, but I want to make sure.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dcar777:
Mine does that too with the mark as option
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
It's been confirmed that the 1.5.1 maintenance update of Infused breaks the non-Gmail email app, for anyone who updated to that around the same time they updated to the 1.8 kernel release
[Samsung Infuse 4G] a3plew:
Did the infused 1.5.1 update cause anyone else to have the cpu to not go past 1.4ghz. I was stable at 1.8 ghz with multiple profiles in voltage control. it only seems to be at 1.8 if I get rid of the 1.4/1.6 ghz profiles. Or set it to on demand. Running conservative min 100 max 1.8 ghz. Stability test shows it just under 1.4 ghz before the update it would show my max frequency. Hope that makes sense.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bedwa:
in the second tab in Voltage control are all frequencies above 1400 (may be under 100 MHZ) in red? If so, it needs checked to be enabled.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bradbusa:
ya idk what's up with my yahoo account. but i know it has nothing to do with your kernel or the rom i'm running. i havent updated to the most recent kernel, and i'm running infused 1.5. the phone has been like this for a couple weeks. havent changed any settings. and to my knowledge everything worked fine originally
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bedwa:
If you're on the original 1.5, swap to the 1.5.3/1 version. The speedmod borked alot of things....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dcar777:
I did 1.5 install then 1.8 the very next day
[Samsung Infuse 4G] :
So not an android noob by any means but I have never flashed just a kernal b4, only full roms. I'm running infused 1.5 and I want to try this. Do I just place zip on external memory and flash with cwm?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dcar777:
Ok, I want to go back to my stock kernel to see if this fixes the problem. I turned off OC and email still doesn't work. I did NOT make a backup of my kernel, but I did make a nandroid backup with cwm before I put the infused rom on... I don't know if that matters or not. Is there a way to revert back to stock even though I didn't make a backup of the stock kernel? And if so, once its done, should i just use infusion 1.5.1 instead of 1.8? I like the kernel, but I like being able to use my email more :-\ haha

That way you can make a backup of your stock kernel like I DIDNT incase you want to go back to it.

so when i flash this kernal i dont know if its working. i go into my about phone and it says kernel version 2.6.32.9

what am i doing wrong. is it suppose to say 1.8 fusion
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bedwa:
Bingo.... now for tweaking.

Using bogomips or cpuspy check build date and time. Samsung kernels don't co-operate well with name changes. Also download Voltage Control.

no,

[Samsung Infuse 4G] nelomen:
Really? I could have sworn I have sent vids bigger. but this is also happening when trying to attach vids to email on wireless.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
My experience has been that if the available frequency table changes, SetCPU will reset to defaults.

And to say that Samsung kernels (specifically, the proprietary modules we need for a bootable system) don't work well with name changes is an understatement.

CONFIG_LOCALVERSION set to anything other than "" = unbootable kernel

When I run Stability Test with Performance, the CPU ramps up to the max set in Voltage Control. But, when using Conservative it tops out at 1.4. The settings are nanually set and not stored in init.d.

Is anyone else seeing this behavoir?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] crazynfo:
jonnyboy_jbmatrix: I experience the same behavior when running stability test. I got around it by setting my min/max to 1800, 1600, 1400 etc to force the frequency I wanted to test. Not sure what the cause is. It happened before I saved boot settings to init.d, and also is still happening after I saved the boot settings and rebooted.

Using voltage control, btw. & stability test 1.5
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jonnyboy_jbmatrix:
@crazynfo

So, is it the governor or Stability Test that is not allowing it go beyond 1.4?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] a3plew:
This is what I was trying to describe earlier! I'm just not good at describe these problems for others to understand. This is what I've been experiencing. If set to conservative governor it tops out at 1.4ghz. Running stability test it tops at 1.4 ghz. Before it would top out at 1 8 ghz.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jonnyboy_jbmatrix:
Well, I am not sure the cause. But, when using Performance, I can achieve 1.8 but it will fail during stability test(within 3 minutes). When using any other governor, as soon as I set the frequency above 1.5, it immediately freezes. I'm thinking that the transition from one freq to another may be too much for my cpu, but staying at 1 freq and not pushing it, it will run. I have been trying different voltages for each freq but still nothing stable above 1.5, yet.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] a3plew:
The thing is something changed for me within the past couple of days. I had it stable at 1.8 ghz with multiple profiles. I'm not sure what changed for me that caused it to stay at 1.4 with the conservative governor. Out of curiosity what rom.are you.running
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jonnyboy_jbmatrix:
I am running Infused 1.5.2. This Infuse is my second. The first one died after flashing Infusion 1.5, it wouldn't power on, so I can't compare before this kernel.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] jonnyboy_jbmatrix:
One more thing. It doesn't seem to be reading the file in init.d at boot.

This may be caused by Infused Rom, gtg said their was a permission problem.

EDIT: My mistake, it does read the file, just its not until well after boot has completed. I will have to check to see just how long after.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] a3plew:
Figured it out. As the init.d folder was added into the the infused Rom it created some type of permission issue. I deleted the init.d folder and created a new one with root explorer and now all is well!. Of course the solution was simple and im wide awake at 5am messing with my phone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] P1 Wookie:
I just started running this kernel last night and of to 1.8 without changing anything else. Will see how it goes today over my normal use.

Beastin it out at 1.8

This new 1.8 kernal is sick. i have 90% battery and on the battery status page says its been on for 7hours and 59 minutes. im using VC and settings are simple. Im running all freqs but with the even freqs i lower the voltage.

1800= -0

1700= -50

1600= -0

1500= -50

1400= -0

1300= -50

1200= -0

1000= -100

and the rest is -100

i did have one question though? Can someone explain to me is some depth what the I/O squedule thing is for? What is CFQ? NOOP? Deadline?

Thanks!

Damn. Glad to hear you are working hard on making it special. I'll miss checking for updates at work 10 times a day.

The quality of your work is astonishing. I've decided I won't update to GB roms until your kernel is released and supports GB.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] AndyM8218:
I downloaded the stock kernel,but right now i am using the infusion kernel, do i need to disable lagfix or anything before i reflash the stock?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
this isnt totally unusualy, use clocks closer together at the high frequencies. say you want to get 1700, enable 1600 and 1500 as well. also have the voltages identical for the top two or three freqs (the true value, not the amount of undervolt) and dont undervolt the low freqs till you get stability. after you get a working combo under volt from the top down one at a time. get the voltage for the top frequency as low as you can, the drastic voltage changes can be a issue.

or you can shoot for battery life and live with a top freq of 1400-1500 and do the undervolting from the bottom up.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
If lagfix is enabled and active you'll need to disable it. I'm not sure if installing this kernel on a stock ROM will enable lagfix. If you're using a lagfix-enabled ROM, you'll need to disable it before installing a stock kernel.

Try using Android Terminal Emulator or another terminal emulator and executing the following command:

'mount | grep ext4'

If you see any results, you need to take measures to disable lagfix before flashing stock.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
lagfix is in the kernel. stock kernel doesn't have ext4 support. it won't read the files if you don't disable lagfix. the kernwl doesn't care what rom you are on. it will convert to ext4 unless disabled.

remember you need a reboot after you disable lagfix before you use the stock kernel. the conversion isn't done till the bootup after you disable lagfix. only after the conversion to rfs can you flash a stock kernel.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bradbusa:
i noticed this happening to me too. right after boot, VC app doesnt take the settings right away, then after a few minutes it wakes up and does what it's supposed to.

my init.d folder has a few files in it from the infused 1.5.2 rom install. will deleting them cause any problems?

also want to see if someone can point me in the right direction.. i was running 1.6ghz for several days with no issues. scoring very well in benchmark tests and quite pleased with battery life.

decided to updated to the newest infused rom today, along with the newest infusion kernel.

the moment i tried to enable 1.7ghz on performance gov with no other settings enabled, my phone started acting weird.. very glitchy. doesnt matter what voltage settings i use. 1.8 isnt much better.. it seems my phone really likes 1.6.. my question is: is this normal, and will it get used to running the faster speeds?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Well, ext4 support is in the kernel - but will an ext4-capable kernel on the stock ROM perform the ext4 conversion?

There's two things needed for lagfix:

1) ext4 support in the kernel

2) partitions converted to ext4 - I don't think the kernel automatically does this, unless there are scripts in the initramfs that do it (I should look). I believe this portion is handled in userland (the ROM)

However, once the conversion in 2) happens you MUST convert back before using a kernel that does not include ext4 support

e.g. installing a lagfix-capable kernel on the stock ROM won't automatically install lagfix to my knowledge. However, once you've used a lagfix-enabled kernel + ROM, you need to stick with lagfix (ext4)-capable kernels until you undo lagfix (convert partitions back from ext4).

To the guy that was asking the question - if you have no ext4 partitions mounted, you can safely go back to a stock kernel. If you have ext4 partitions, you need to disable lagfix (convert the partitions back) before returning to a stock kernel.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
the voodoo kernels do this on first boot unless you disable it by entering red cwm on bootup and disable it or if you have a pre existing /sdcard/Voodoo/disable-lagfix file(could be left over from a previous kernel if you ever disabled the lagfix before). this is why some of the roms have a disclaimer that the first boot takes up to 20 minutes, much of that time is for the automatic ext4 conversion. without the disable lagfix file in the Voodoo folder the kernel will automatically run the conversion if the file system is not already converted.

I am tring to run att 1.8 but I dont see 1.8 With linpack app or stability test I only ever see 1.6. 1.6 is running great very stable for over a week

. Im using vc conservative, with ant. I have 1.8 Enabled.Quad score does not change much. I get about 2100 - 2200. Highest lin pack run was 27 mflops. I am stable att the 1.8 Settings, I just dont see that image actually 1.8 like I does with my 1.6 Setup.

Any ideas? if thats all I can get then its ok . Phone is fast enough at 1.6.

Youtube loads really fast and auto rotate of youtube vids is really fast if up you rotate phone 180. Gmaps redraws fast.

my phone runs really well at 1.6 also.. quad scores seem to go down on 1.8, but freqs running performance gov.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bedwa:
With conservative, it wont always run at full speed, use CPU spy to make sure it's touching that frequency. ;)

Oh and on performance, I have noticed quad scores lower at 1800 and higher at 2000 and 2200. Trust me, it'll get better. ;)

But the main thing is that if it performs well for you at 1.8, it's fine. Quadrant is picky sometimes........

2200?! Seriously? That's huge increase over stock speed! Wow! This is one tough phone
[Samsung Infuse 4G] terra-starr:
Well jumping from 1200 to 1800 cause issues?

When I went from Infused 1.5.1 to 1.5.2, the speed shown in CPU spy or Stability Test only would hit 1400, even though VC was set at 1800.

I got the CPU to hit 1800, by turning off all frequencies between 1200 &1800.

It's running great so far.

Should I expect any issues with this frequency jump?

This kernel is amazing!

I capped mine at 800, and took off 100mV from all levels (100, 200, 400, 800).

[Samsung Infuse 4G] jonnyboy_jbmatrix:
I found the cause. After updating to Infused 1.5.2, there are additional scripts in the init.d folder and they run in alphabetical order. The script to set cpu runs last. I renamed the file to put it at the top of the list and it is back to normal.
