[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
Hey, loving the new release, it seems up to par with the latest hacksung nightly kernels I've been using, only thing is on the same nightly, running with the kernel cm comes with for 2-3 days and everything was like SUPER snappy, but I wanted ktlo and bln so I flashed talon because I remember it runs awesome and has everything I want, but for some reason it seems exactly as responsive, but somehow noticeably choppier.. I wiped cache and dalvik when I flashed the kernel, didn't change anything else, any way to fix that on my own?
[Captivate Android Development] :
OC'ing wasn't even needed for me, as I was getting similar performance, so my battery life is excellent and performance is great.
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
Thanks ytt3r.

Your kernel is running great after I reflash my Captivate to STOCK Gingerbread and flash the MIUI ROM again. :D
[Captivate Android Development] :
For Zach's script, I placed it in system/etc/init.d, rebooted into CWM and fixed permissions, and then rebooted the phone.....is that correct?
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
Yes. This is correct.

And make sure it's not a zip file. It should be 2 files with the name like S98blahblahblah...
[Captivate Android Development] :
Yeah, I placed those two scripts in there, and I just realized I must've done it right b/c the governor is set to smartass :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Funny, tried 0.0.2 from Glitch v12 and while I was setting undervolt settings, the phone reset.

-Using Voltage Control.
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
Not funny, I experienced the same.

All I do is FLASH BACK TO STOCK Captivate Gingerbread ROM and reflash everything again.

Then, now, my Captivate is rocking hard with the setup in my signature!

Before that, you can try to delete the OC/UV from the phone 1st.

After that, apply the Kernel Cleaning Script. Then, only flash the TalonMTD kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] andeke07:
Flashed .2 today and now my settings app seems to be missing. I navigated to /system/app and settings.apk is still there, when I tapped on it, it asked me to install, ran through the motions but then said 'app was not installed'. Should I just reflash CM7?
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
Check the permission of the settings.apk.

You can open up the permission of other .apk files you can find over there to check the permission settings.

Then, change the settings.apk's permission settings accordingly.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
I just tried again, I do not store voltage settings as BOOT because that is what creates the need to remove settings before installing new kernels, roms and so on.

Simply rebooting, waiting 10 minutes and trying again resolved my problem. Running fine now. Using SIO > Smartass at 1.2 ghz, undervolt 1.2ghz-100mhz by 50.
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
"bfq" is better than "sio", IMO.

Why no include the Zach's V19 Script? It simply adds more battery life for you.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Got a link to the Zach's v19 script? I am more or less checking how things run on 1.8.19 because the previous month had less problems, as far as I could tell.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Check the last pages of the MIUI thread.

Edit: Here you go: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=685538&d=1313096507
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
I benchmarked a few schedulers and sio and deadline were better than bfq. Deadline was best.
[Captivate Android Development] xijar:
Im getting better battery life than ever with v19 scripts and smartass gov with vr scheduler. Havent ttried alternative schedulers yet but will look into.

Sent from my i897 running MIUI 1.8.19 with TalonMTD kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Well I got annoyed over Voltage Control causing a reset with 0.0.2 Talon so I am back on Glitch v10-vc because that has been the best kernel for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
Try use other Application to control your OC/UV.

Maybe Control Freak or Pimp My CPU will do. I just love Pimp My CPU! AWESOME!
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
I could never get Control Freak to work with TalonMTD. It immediately force closes for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
Then, use Pimp My CPU.

I know there's a lot of applications can do this as well.

Such as Galaxy Tuner, Tegrak Overclock, SetCPU, etc.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
I'm using VC, working well. Tegrak (free) isn't compatible with the mtd version of Talon. I have pimp, but prefer vc. Never used the others.
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
+1 for VC. works fine. no issues.
[Captivate Android Development] vazovskiiii:
can i use this kernel without overclock? or it's not overclocked by default?
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
It allows OC/UV(Overclock and Undervolt) and VC(Voodoo Control).

It's not OCed to begin with. It's default maximal CLOCK SPEED is 1GHz(same as usual).

With OC and UV features of this kernel, you can increase the performance by OCing and increase the battery life by UVing.

VC allows you to adjust sound quality(or boost your sound quality) and colors of your screen.
[Captivate Android Development] :
You have to undervolt before you choose to OC to that speed.

Ex: Undervolt 1200 MHZ before you choose to OC to 1200
[Captivate Android Development] astrocrep:
Battery life has been great with 0.0.2... but my Memory sucks... Feels like it's leaking just like the I9000 version :(
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Voltage control would cause a reset right after choosing Scheduler, governor and Max CPU speed. Hit apply, then reset a short time later.

Sent from the miui matrix SGH-i897
[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
i cant keep my memory from leaking BADLY either (referencing a post above mine that i should have quoted) i actually have gotten so upset with it i flashed back to the stock kernel due to major lag and choppiness and ram being too low, dont know why either, nothing i do helps it much, not v6 supercharger, juawe's ram scripts, or any ram scripts ive found make the slightest difference, this kernel is bogging something down on my phone under every governor/scheduler setting combination i can come up with, although some perform better than others, none solve choppiness lag or responsiveness issues i experience, but restoring a backup of the stock cm7 kernel solved every issue i have, but with no BLN, KTLO, or voodo color which are the 3 main features i LOVE about this kernel,

this is my experience with both v0.0.1 & 0.0.2, please dont take anything ive said as disrespect for i have not meant any to anybody, thank you
[Captivate Android Development] astrocrep:
Try the latest Glitch or Platypus (Get from the IRC Channel)... they are both great!
[Captivate Android Development] :
After applying all the tweaks, I have never gone below 160 MB of Ram available after running several games/apps. Try flashing back to stock.

Edit: just ran 3 games and din't close them then used the built in app killer and had 190 MB ra available
[Captivate Android Development] astrocrep:
When was the last reboot? I let mine run for like 24 hours... and after killing everything I was over 60mb short of where I was on a clean boot.
[Captivate Android Development] :
It's been almost a day, but I don't blame you. I had crazy performance on the Glitch kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] astrocrep:
Yep! For the most part it's subjective anyway. What makes up happy and makes the phone work best is all we can ask for!
[Captivate Android Development] :
Exactly. I have had problems with plenty of kernels that everyone swears by. It's all about what works on your phone. It's funny because I just experienced memory leaks and huge lag right now at about the 25 hour mark. Time to test some more and maybe come back next release.
[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
This is what I'm talking about specifically, upon boot there are no issues, I like to multitask like insanely, I normally have 15+ apps running and try to keep my ram low but capable of doing whatever I need done, without having to reload any apps when they open, and my homescreen never loads up again even after tegra 2 games close I can't get my phone to work in such a way on this kernel, glitch was awesome for performance for a while... Until I went back to the stock cm7 kernel on the newest nightlys, now it seems like no custom kernel can match stock in responsiveness or multitasking.... I've never run stock anything and been happy with it, the cm team is doing awesome, and I officially feel weird lol

[Captivate Android Development] The Boxinator:
Okay so I tried using the scripts for the v19 tweaks, I fixed permissions and allocated them properly, how can I confirm which Governor my phone is using?

btw Battery is already amazing thanks to these tweaks <3
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Voltage control, pimp my cpu, setCPU. They should all do the trick.
[Captivate Android Development] :
SAME THING HERE lol! I am running Zach's Platypus and it works perfectly (only had it for a few hours, but I'll report back). Talon was great for the first day, but until the lag is fixed I can't use it :(
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
I encounter the lagness of TalonMTD kernel last time too.

But, after flash back to STOCK Gingerbread and flash MIUI ROM again, I'm all good now with TalonMTD 0.0.2(with Zach's V19 Script).

Smooth like butter.

OC/UV 1.2GHz with TalonMTD 0.0.2.

Governor(screen on) = SmartAss

Governor(screen off) = Conservative

Scheduler = BFQ
[Captivate Android Development] :
After how long?
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Strange, undervolt 1.2 ghz before setting the max cpu speed? I'll give that a try and see what the battery does tomorrow. Got a little day trip planned, GPS navigate to a couple destinations. I sometimes disable data when going indoors and all that unless I need to check something.
[Captivate Android Development] lownox:
I definitely have not experienced any lag with this kernel. I use launcher pro or zeam launcher as I find them to be quick.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Yep. it worked for me. Try it out.
[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
i havent been complaining about the launcher, i know and understand that my adw ex is laggy once every blue moon or so and i dont blame that on the kernel regardless of it being very much less responsive on it, im blaming lag on cut the rope, nova 2, tegra pinball HD, and such on the kernel running on my specific phone, yours may like talon better than mine, but mine cant run almost anything as smooth as the stock kernel on talon, ive flashed it 4 times, i love the features, seriously i want this kernel because it has EVERYTHING i could ever ask for included and working like a charm, just choppy and laggy which i cant stand because im all OCD about my phone
[Captivate Android Development] :
Running Platypus v17 rc7. After a few charge cycles I'll report back. Been running for about 15 hours with no lag yet.
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
interesting because I tried v17rc7 and my phone definitely didnt like that decision. I've been running glitch v11 LL with no lag at all.
[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
I just downloaded it lol wasn't going to install until I got a response to my questions on the respective kernels thread :p

[Captivate Android Development] dskim0506:
.

I was just wondering..

is this kernel already undervolted by default?

if it is, by how much ?

my phone gets frozen when i undervolt it -100 from 1000MHz and down with 100 to 400 MHz when screen off profile.

anyone :(?
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
0.0.1 started out -50 compared to the other cm7/miui kernels. 0.0.2 changed to the same voltage as the other kernels. O have noticed that miui/cm7 doesn't seem to tolerate the extreme uv some were able to apply with a samsung rom (just my opinion).
[Captivate Android Development] dskim0506:
.

so 0.0.2 is set to -50 by default?

couldn't understand what ur saying :(
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
-_- no, I bumped the voltages. Voltages are the same as they usually are on other kernels.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
@ytt3r

First, have you finished your homework?

Second, why does Control Freak not want to work with TalonMTD, or am I the only one seeing a fc when I try to use it?
[Captivate Android Development] dskim0506:
.

Really...? :( that's odd..

well, i wiped cache and dalvik before flashing the kernel,

but then everytime i undervolt it the phone gets frozen.

any idea why my phone gets frozen?

is undervolting -100 too much?

any UV value that you would recommend?
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Start with a more conservative number, like -25. If that is stable bump it up.
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
First, did it all during class. Second, I am, and so are other people in the thread.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Good job on the homework.

Its nice to know I am not the only one. What did Shane say about it? He have any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] manny05:
Hey how do you set it so that on screen on is smartass and screen off conservative???

I'd like to have the same settings?. Except maybe have performance instead of smartass..

[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
You'll need to use Zach's V19 Script(WIP) and edit it yourself(to get the options you want because default will be SmartAss and Conservative).

But, I am not sure if Zach's V19 Script to work on Samsung based Custom ROMs like Dlev...
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
I tried undervolting before bumping Max CPU to 1.2ghz and it did not hard reset, yay.

While in a call and driving, the phone reset. So I am back to glitch v10-vc.

Sent from the miui matrix SGH-i897
[Captivate Android Development] dannb:
On MIUI 1.8.19 I cannot get any overclock settings to work at all. I get a hard reset either immediately or within a minute even when trying 1.2Ghz with no UV. All the old settings were wiped before flashing.

Went back to Glitch to confirm and OC/UV works just fine so the issue is with the kernel.

I did find that I got quite good battery life, the BLN soft button bug a little but not as often as usual, and I do like the KTLO. If the OC/UV stuff can get resolve this will be my goto kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Undervolt before bumping the CPU up to 1200, then slowly lower UV.
[Captivate Android Development] SpencerElliott:
I'm not quite sure if this is where I should be posting this since I'm kind of new to the whole kernel scene, but here it goes.

I went to compile TalonMTD using build.sh captivate but it failed on cpuset.c so I went in and found a typo where 'task' should have been 'tsk'. I've created a patch and attached it to this post but I'm not sure if it's something that needs to be included in the kernel or if I'm just a newb :P
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
Interesting... It seems to be working just fine for me, but I'm compiling right now as a test, I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks for the patch ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
What's the patch all about?

I am quite confuse about it. :(:confused:
[Captivate Android Development] SpencerElliott:
I just went to compile the source code from the repository and couldn't compile so I fixed up a single typo, nothing to fret :)
[Captivate Android Development] mkr14:
Can you increase the FPS cap to at least 60? FPse emulates at 60fps and some games glitch out at the the 56 cap.

Existz refused to do this in the standard Talon when I asked about a month ago. He stated that there is some bug that creates a red tint in the Samsung Gingerbread roms at anything higher than 56. The Snail kernel raised the cap to 65 and it works fine for me so no idea. Everything looks the same as with the 56fps cap. With Voodoo Color, is this even still an issue?

Anyway, the other 2 CM7 kernels do this and they run great.

It would be nice to have everything running correctly!
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
I was telling this too previously.

But, he's not intended to do it. So, I didn't force him any further.
[Captivate Android Development] XsceneXhippieX:
Not only fpse, but also *most* games with half ass decent graphics run a steady 60(+) fps, the cap on this kernel currently makes literally 80% of my games run choppy and laggy, and not even high end games mind you (ie cut the rope) are acting this way, BUT this kernel is jam packed with the absolute coolest features in any kernel available currently, which is (probably) why that frame cap is coming up as a topic.... Over and over and over people are reporting the same things, all directly related to fps... figured it wasn't just multiple peoples imaginations

Sent from cyanogen mod 7
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
Yes, this kernel does have many good features that other ROMs don't have.

That's why I love this kernel... but, the FPS... :(

I just hope he can come out with 2 versions.

1 FPS Uncap and 1 without FPS Uncap.

Happy for all users.

[Captivate Android Development] lownox:
Kernel runs good. Memory does decline a bit over time. Killing apps with MIUI Sidekick app results in less and less memory as the day goes on. However, this doesn't cause lagging for me.

On a side note, using the screen on/off governor script will make music use with screen off react slowly. I.e. switching songs with head set button.

Looking forward to the next version. Keep up the good work. :)
[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
I'm looking careers to the next version too, but I'm not sure how much awesome will be in it from last version, and I might have to push back my weekly release since I'm going to be really busy tomorrow. Haven't noticed a single issue with memory, and only a few people seem to be experiencing it. Also, ondemandX is a fantastic screen off governor, it allows the processor to scale up if it needs to while saving battery in a screen off situation. Since it only affects smoothness when there's something to be smooth, it's fantastic for screen off ;)
[Captivate Android Development] lownox:
Gonna try it for screen off then. Thanks.

Any chance of this kernel making it to the Samsung Vibrant? We need on more CM7 kernels on Vibrant and this looks like the perfect candidate. Are you willing to port this to Vibrant? Please......

If I already have .2 flashed, can I drop Zachs scripts in and then boot in to recovery and flash it again? Or is there another method that is preferred?

The easiest way is to insert the scripts in the /system/etc/init.d folder. Reboot into recovery... then fix permissions in recovery.... then reboot the phone.

[Captivate Android Development] ytt3r:
Really? That's interesting... You're sure your APNs are correct and you have mobile data switched on?
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
There's still NO FIX for LED Notification that will cause haptic buttons to be malfunction sometime and even SOD(for some people) for not just this kernel.

Glitch, Platypus Kernel also have this problem.

As long as the KERNEL said to have LED Notification... be prepared. :)

Platypus Kernel Author are now figuring out how to fix this... but, I think this is very hard. Need a lot of time.

Also take note, LED Notification and BLN are NOT the same. They're 2 different thing.
[Captivate Android Development] askpcguy:
Yes, not sure if the APN would change from flashing a different kernel. Perhaps messing with the Widgetsoid data enable/disable homescreen widget might be the problem.

When I tried Glitch v10-vc, data enabled in seconds! Wish I grabbed a logcat between kernels. --I still could, for investigative purposes.

I've experienced a strange issue related to BLN features with this kernel. Sometimes (haven't yet narrowed down repro steps) after unlocking the phone directly into a app with a the text box highlighted, like an SMS app, the nav buttons (home, back, menu, search) are unresponsive. It's only until I lock and unlock the phone that the nav buttons return to normal.

There is the old original captivate cm7 .tar kernel floating around somewhere.

I know it is on glitches ftp (not sure if its in the dev only section).
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
Just use Onix or Talon odin version depending on which bootloaders you are on and then reflash the ROM. You won't lose anything more then likely.
[Captivate Android Development] mindbullet:
Hey just wanted to say I'm really liking this kernel on CM7 with that Adreneline Shot mod. My phone can handle 1.3 GHz with -100 undervolt across the board now... and it was never able to do that before. Please keep up the good work!
