[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Yes I know that, grateful and respect to all of them. But did you notice those 2 link, knzo's and Huexxx's thread? That's why I just mention "two developers" :)

I believe it will be today? Because you're so excitement about this achievement ;) and don't want to be stopped right now, LOL :D

-- add --

Best score I've had CM7.1-N14 + kernel v4 CFS:

v4 includes "Patched hosts to disable Ads" but my quadrant standard still showing ads at the bottom.. need o update the hosts.. :)
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
v05 uploaded; now back to Portugal vs Bosnia.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Hahaha, v05 released, just as I expected... ;)

Thanks knzo, testing on the way...

--add--

That's the Quadrant score of what I've got with v5-CFS.

Everything's on previous known bugs was gone: Torch, BLN, Camera are working fine...
[LG Optimus Black] fatcobrah:
@knzo

i'v noticed that after applying v5 i'v got only 3081 points while i'v got 3400 yesterday

is that normal ?

thx for fixing video :)
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
Yep, all [so far] known bugs are gone... still I have 2 questions...

1.- how does I only got 2264 max score?

2.- is it possible to add "zoom in/zoom out" feature to cam while recording video?? I know is not possible even at stock rom [perhaps is not software but hardware?] but with almost all "old phone" [non-android] we could zoom in and out while recording video... I'd like to have that feature :p
[LG Optimus Black] quyTam:
It's nothing to do with the Kernel !
[LG Optimus Black] interdan:
Thx Knzo for your kernel and for continuing development, with your job our OB work great.

My friends don't believe how last battery !
[LG Optimus Black] Pdud Kronos:
I can confirm to everyone that the v05 is a bug free for now....manage to get 3000++ on quadrant and it is a great success. If the overclocking features is available,surely we can get higher score! thank knzo for the great work!
[LG Optimus Black] iNickMe:
i just got 2500+ quadrant, how can you got 3000+ ?? Do you run quadrant on usb debug ?
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Did you already see the attached screenshot? Look at the status bar, and you'll have your anwser.. ;)
[LG Optimus Black] iNickMe:
op, sorry, my bad :D
[LG Optimus Black] Pdud Kronos:
is there any diffrences running it on usb debug? i still got 3000+ when not on debug mode

Surprisingly, i still manage to get 3000++ even not connecting it to usb debugging.
[LG Optimus Black] Thes1ev:
are you using BFS version ?
[LG Optimus Black] inso420:
For some reason everytime i try to install this mod my phone gets bricked :(
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
I'm probably missing something obvious, but I was testing eRecovery and it doesn't seem to work. Just holding any key while booting should do it, right?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
It works for everybody else, you must be doing some mistake; make sure to:

1. Be running CM7.

2. Check the Md5 so you know you didn't download a corrupted copy.

No, it's not holding, it's pressing repeatedly.

The key detection only works on press or release, during hold it doesn't detect action.
[LG Optimus Black] inso420:
I did its not the first time i do this. First time i tried i installed cm7 + gapps + ur kernel at the same time. Bricked. Although i haven't tried to remove the battery and checking :p
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
RTFM, I knew it was me. but it really doesn't say this explicitly in the first post, it just says "press any physical key while booting", and with most phones you HOLD a key while booting. thanks for the clarification though.
[LG Optimus Black] officialreloaded:
Strange! ! I got almost bricked too!

Well yesterday I had flashed huexxx kernel and today I decided to use Nova kernel. But got myself stuck at LG logo, with blinking buttons. I waited and found after a while phone e went in boot loops ..:D

However I removed the batterry and was able to enter recovery.. so to be safe I made a clean install of nightly and again Nova kernel and it's working fine now! :)

Though I can not say it would be due to flashing Nova over huexxx, because I hadn't checked md5. So may be file was corrupted. I use idm for download.
[LG Optimus Black] inso420:
Yea.. removed the battery and worked...:D
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Like the FAQ states, sometimes it will get stuck on boot after the first flash.

A dalvik-cache wipe might help with this though.

In these cases just remove the battery and place it back on, should work.

Always read the FAQ before posting a doubt or sending me a PM please.
[LG Optimus Black] officialreloaded:
@ knzo

Half an hour testing, the kernel seems to be very stable and fast than previous versions I'd tried. Video recording tested, reached 30fps, played asphalt 6 and goes fine, quadrent 2965 unplugged, played zynga poker in dolphin browser HD, and page loaded fine, in fact it seems more smooth. Thanks knzo I hate to use poker application, playing flash game directly via browser is real good. No doubt this kernel does what it says. :)

(PS @ others - I didn't send PM to knzo okay so dont send me PM for that too. :D )
[LG Optimus Black] vmjoaquim:
Hmmm, it could be only me..but when using camera the flash doesn't work ..is anyone having the same problems?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Thanks, I always appreciate an elaborate feedback.

Is it on/auto?
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
my flash works - try camera settings - restore defaults (i had mine set to night mode trying to take a pic of the full moon on 11/11/11 and it didn't work the first time i tested, all options were disabled)
[LG Optimus Black] vmjoaquim:
Hey thanks! That solved my problem! xD
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
@knzo

hi again, I was wondering, since we have no more problems [so far] can you say this [v5] is a final version? or you're already working on v6?:D
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
I believe it is knzo's time to break :)
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
I'm quite happy with v05, I'm not planning on a v06 soon.

I'll update it if something worthy pops up or if rmcc updates CM.
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
not only you but all of us are damn happy with your work here man, thnx a lot, get a well deserved hard earned vacations :D
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
++1, and not only the work you've done, but the way you are happy to share your knowledge so that others may continue - give a man a fish, blah blah blah, but teach him how to fish... :rolleyes:
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
Tried a moment ago, flash works fine.

@knzo: i wonder if you can fix loud volume in max level and very low when you lower it one step. Hummm... sorry oot.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Just what I thought ;)

I think the audio problem related with hardware module/library. Just a guess.. :p
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
last night i flashed it over #16 and got bricked twice

haven't tried to remove the battery and turned it on again,but i went to recovery through adb and flashed it again (the #16 and your kernel)

and the result is equal,stuck on lg logo again

any clue ?

*i've checked the md5 and no prob
[LG Optimus Black] Pdud Kronos:
Read The Faqs!
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
ok my bad,calm down

but all i need to know is,why is it happening
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
Have you wiped dalvik? mine stuck at LG logo then i pulled battery, insert then it booted.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
100% Load.

Hi, last night Nightly#16 out and i give it a try, and flash with kernel v5-CFS.

Everything's seems normal, and going to bed. After woke up, I'm shock that my battery was drained to 5%, while I remember left it before sleep at 40%. Check it with BetterBatteryStats, there are huge process/wakelock.. and the system goes up to 100% loads. Even reboot had the same result, high load.

Before #16 I was #14 and nothing had problems with battery drain like that, just normal. My Whatsapp never had drain battery, even when I sleep. Now I was "downgrade" back to #14 + v5-CFS, and everything's looks normal. I'll wait for a day again, to check it out..
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
i always wipe everything when flashing any new rom

but,it is risking the battery when you pulled it off so often,isn't it? :)
[LG Optimus Black] ogremount:
I find instead off reboot system now doing power off solves the stuck to lg logo problem.

Not sure if it is the proper thing to do but works for me.
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
owh yeah,i almost forgot there's a power off option there :D

ok i'll try,thx
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Does this happen with anyone else?

Remember that sometimes nightlies are for the worse, not always the better.

I've checked the changelog to #16 and I don't see anything P970 related so even more chances that this is ROM-related.

If others don't have this problem: it's on your side.

But if others have this problem: it's either kernel or ROM. So what I advise you to do is use CM stock kernel (just flash #16 again) and see if the load is high. If it isn't, then it's Nova kernel who doesn't like #16 and I might release a new version to increase compatibility.

Test it out and tell me.
[LG Optimus Black] pakotbkr:
I already mentioned apart from the power failure, I had several when I try to download something fc through Opera mobile.
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Is anyone using BFS?
[LG Optimus Black] lvlouro:
I've just flashed CM7 and nova kernel yesterday, came from nova8 (lately not working well, lots of lag and FC and low battery life, I believe due to some apps I installed)

It seems as system is faster with less lag, although I'm only getting 2300+ on quadrant.

Batterywise it's to early to tell since I've been installing apps and configuring all day.

I'm now recharging and will try be on the lookout for any drainage, however cannot compare to previous CMs

P.S.: knzo, I thought you got rid of this life ;). Always nice to have you with us cheers!!!
[LG Optimus Black] ogremount:
I am using 5 Bfs, after few glitches and random reboots while using Cfs. Seems nice and so far no problems. Quadrant results are lower but that doesn't concern me much. Will update on battery life etc. latter.
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Uploaded v06 with a new flash method, tell me if it works.

(See if it flashes without errors, then go to settings > about and confirm the v06 please).
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Woops, bricked. Even after removing battery still wouldn't boot. Or it takes a while? I guess you have to fix it again bro. I used eRecovery to boot in CWM. I'll flash it again.
[LG Optimus Black] ivanlau:
bricked...even can't enter the recovery now

what can i do?:(
[LG Optimus Black] johnnyslt:
yeah me also, erecovery doesn't seem to work
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Yes you can. just boot again and repeatedly press any physical key, then flash the version 5. Or flash nightly without wipe.

Just press and press any key, it takes a while to enter eRecovery.

@Knzo

I flashed it again still no go. Removed battery twice to make sure. I've entered eRecovery now for the third time. Reverting back to V5.
[LG Optimus Black] vmjoaquim:
Yeap, stuck on LG boot logo..can't boot into recovery too :/
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Sorry fellas, spam a physical key during boot to enter in recovery and flash v5.

I already put the links down. I'm reverting to the old flashing method.
[LG Optimus Black] johnnyslt:
no it doesn't work
[LG Optimus Black] vmjoaquim:
Not working for me too :/
[LG Optimus Black] glasoner:
Don't work, no eRecovery, no adb, stuck on LG logo's :(

Only solution is flash a kdz file??? :S
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Keep trying, sometimes it's not at first.

If you really can't get into recovery, you'll have to flash KDZ over it. Sorry. ;X

Anyway, here's v06-CFS with old method:

http://www.multiupload.com/FN9M3WL01P
[LG Optimus Black] vmjoaquim:
No prob man..Everything has it's risks ^^
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Boot again by removing battery. Then press volume down repeatedly, the LG Logo will blink and it would enter CWM. Just spam the buttom till you get in in CWM (it takes a while). I'm back at V5 succesfully.

If not, adb reboot recovery...
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
If you can't spam your way into recovery again like gabwerkz and end up having to flash a KDZ, remember this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1275315

@gabwerkz, can you flash the v06 I uploaded now through the old method and see if it boots?
[LG Optimus Black] ivanlau:
sorry...may i ask how to adb reboot recovery?..:(
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Yep, it directly booted bro. Will confirm the kernel..

Yeah, success with this one. 2.6.35.7-Nova.v06 msk@dreamcast #1

Strange, I've done it several times and entered eRecovery each time. I'm on Nightly 14 BTW. Sorry for that bro.
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
It was the flashing method then.

Weird, should've worked. Oh well.
[LG Optimus Black] rgabi88:
What's new in v6?

ty, knzo for your work..:cool:
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
version six:

- CFS' Autogroup & RCU optimizations.

- VMScan tweaking.

- VMap Area cache feature.

- Improvements to compressed/head.S.

- Enhanced compiler ability to optimize page tables.

- Introduced memory copy macros and functions.

- Improved performance of memcpy and memmove.

The "main attraction" was supposed to be the AnyKernel working for OB but alas, it doesn't like me. I'd debug it and try to understand what went wrong but without a Black is hard.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
You mentioned that the newly uploaded was from the old method, but it booted directly after flashing (without removing battery).
[LG Optimus Black] ogremount:
Ouch , flashed the 6 BFS without looking the new posts and here i am downloading KDZ because right now LG servers have scheduled update
[LG Optimus Black] glasoner:
F**k, i'm on windows 8, not work b2cappsetup and in consecuence not work r&d test tool xD
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:

[LG Optimus Black] fatcobrah:
Is v06 safe to flash now?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Doesn't work that way, it must be like I edited.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Yep, I tried adding mount and unmount and it gives error (expecting 4 args, found 3). Anyway, Anykernel by koush looks promising. Hope you can fix it sometime. thanks for the effort.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
I guess not everyone have it, but I believe that #16's problem... currently still with #14 + v5-CFS and the phone normal. This time I don't want to had reflash again with #16, because I had work to do right now. If there's time, then I will have fun again with it :D

Reading next post to last, I'm still having doubt to try your v6, related with high load yesterday with #16. Perhaps later if Nightly Build out again, because there's lots of change to be included...

Thanks knzo..
[LG Optimus Black] kokocf:
I flash last night v06 CFS with cm7 #17 and until now i don't "meet" any black screen or stuck device :), just quadrant score is lower for me its somewhere at 2400-2500, but this score don't affect me.
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
Flashed #17 and Nova v6 BFS gives me WiFi error, reflashed again, same results :D

tried v5 CFS with #17, error too (--")
[LG Optimus Black] iNickMe:
i'm on #17 and Nova v6 CFS, no problem with wifi.
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
I know it shouldn't cause a wifi error but it happened to my phone, wierd. :confused:
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Wow, had 1 day and still 60%, I got improvement :)

Before this, with Nova v8, got 1 day and 15~20 hours lifetime from 100% to 0%.

Now, currently with CM Nightly #14 + Kernel v5-CFS.

and since last night usage (same as usual): 2G, Call, SMS, Whatsapp, Ubersocial, Camera, Screenshot, Dropbox, and no WiFi.

Thanks knzo, love you ;) :p
[LG Optimus Black] Jenich:
Great work, knzo...Thanx!

Using nightly 16, nova v06 CFS... booted fine without battery out. Temperature was a bit higher with ondemand; with interactive X is device cool and battery time seems great. Games, Hspa, wifi and the battery life is better than on nova v8 rom.

glad you´re working on this - imagine that... i got perfectly stable phone on GB with early nightly build of CM7 :)
[LG Optimus Black] ivanlau:
Doesn't matter:)Eventually i re-flashed the phone with KDZ...

Luckily, I got the backup file of titanium backup...;)...

If u get enough time later, i suggest u to buy a new optimus black...

It is really a good phone, as modified by u prefectly:D, it is good for u to enjoy ur own hardwork:)

Anyway, thanks for ur great works:D
[LG Optimus Black] officialreloaded:
Well well, there's good numbers of active members here. We donate a little and together it can buy knzo a new ob! Or at least a second hand..:D

Okay but seriously, if knzo had an ob, we may have surely felt a dark Knight taking care of us. And also I would have been secure about getting ICS ..;)

Anyways I am still on nightly 14 and kernel is working fine. Waiting for nightly 18 updates.
[LG Optimus Black] Pdud Kronos:
Why don't you just buy it for knzo? lol....

Anyway, i really appreciate knzo,rmcc and huexxx as without them, we the OB user wont have any chances to fully benefit the devices to ourselves.

I would sugest a OB paypal donate account for knzo. Couple of euros from each of us is not gonna break the bank. I will gladly donate!!!!

My OB is behaving better by the day
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
i was just thinking the exact same thing. we should donate anyway, but if we do it in force, would you buy one knzo?

[edit] i just noticed, i cannot find a 'donate' or even a 'thanks' button anywhere, am i missing something obvious AGAIN?! [/edit]
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Save your money friends. ;)

C'mon knzo don't be that shy :p you're doing an excellent work [like if you were working for LG xD] I'd say even better, I'm at the other end of the sea, but sure I could gladly send some bucks for you...

you may see it as a "help" not "pay" you know, you can set a goal [if you want a new OB] like $200 [more or less don't know] if all of us send 1 or 2 bucks we're not loosing our lunch but you sure get a new OB :D
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
What I need is a man ballsy enough to test the v07.

It has a higher chance than usual of not booting, so who's feeling up for it?
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Where is it? :D

PM it to me and I'll try it.
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
bring it on quick, before i go to bed
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13427114/Nova-kernel-v07-CFS.zip (experimental)

If you can boot it fine, I'll update the first post.

I also tried to include a governor called Greaselightning but the kernel didn't like him.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Booted! Entered CM!

Yeah, only 4 governors, LAZY as default.

Kernel confirmed as v07 in About phone. You can now edit the first post. All seems fine for me.

I just noticed now that you used lower values in sysctl (dirty ratio etc.) or was it CM's default?
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
2nd, booted fine, quick tests show no issues with wifi, mobile and camera. bring on the BFS! i'm goin to bed, but please post the changes.

(my governor didn't change to lazy, still set to smartassV2.)
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Ah, perhaps it's because of my SetCPU.
[LG Optimus Black] rgabi88:
v07 should work in near future #18, huh?
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
curious, i didn't buy setcpu because all i wanted it for was to underclock below 300, which i understand is not possible. what does it do for you that you can't do with basic cm7 performance settings?
[LG Optimus Black] lvlouro:
I'm currently with nightly16 and nova kernel 05

Came from nova v8 and can say battery life sucks now

I have low signal where I work so battery didn't really last that much on work days... I have moderate-low use but with 3G and data always on.

However with nova v8 after 12h I still managed to 30-40% and now I can't even manage 12h...

In both configs I used Smartass V2

It seems weird since you guys report better battery life
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Nothing really just the Info Tab, I use No Frills before to change I/O Scheduler. SetCPU and Default CM doesn't have it.

Like this infos: (image c/o lesp4ul)

There's a setcpu donate attachment on the Quasar Kernel thread before BTW.
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Alright, I'll update the thread soon.

For the BFS version I will need some more time. Or maybe I won't release BFS at all for v07.

I changed the dirty ratios yes, I don't recommend changing them.

Here's changelog for v07:

[I]version seven[/I]:
- Added AUFS - Advanced multi-layered unification filesystem.
- Integrated XZ compression support and enabled it.
- Integrated SHA-1 and enabled it.
- Added Timer Slack CGroups subsystem.
- Optimized do_csum function.
- Added USB Mass storage CSW hack feature (improves USB performance).
- Umaro's CPU tweaks collection.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
knzo,

Question, using your v5-CFS, I'm unable to do dmesg via terminal. What's happen?

And I think your CFS+Autogroup is enough, because I personally don't want those "BFS sometimes causes weird things and glitches" (quoting your FAQ) ;)
[LG Optimus Black] Jenich:
Well...when I used smartass or ondemand the battery was draining way to fast too. Interactive X was the one that worked for me. The scaling of cpu was "reasonable" only with interactive X also opossed to other governors which seemed a bit too overscaled during moderate use of the device.

Anyway try flashing v06...

edit: one more thing: i had to use "fixmyradio" thing while i was experiencing the loss of 3g signal all the time with all nightly builds. maybe that counts too
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
I removed dmesg; it consumes CPU cycles unnecessarily and basically no one uses it.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Well, the case is that you didn't have the device, so how can we do debugging things without it? Can you show how? I just can't figure it out yet, developing kernel without device, cool :cool: but how to debug?

-TIA-
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
If there's need to debug anything I'll compile a version with dmesg.

Until then I'd rather not have any debugging or tracing crap on my kernel.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Well I believe there's many who want to help you with debug/trace inside your kernel, and I'd love to.. but it's up to you to include it or not. Or you can give us alternatives to debug/trace?

Anyway, you already had v07 link in your first post, but the title remain v06.

-TIA-
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
If there are new issues/bugs to be looked at, I'll then take action and provide you the means to debug if needed.

But I can usually tell by the kind of bug what change I made led to it.
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Next CM version will be a bit different, I'll need to update the kernels' ramdisk to avoid issues.

It'll also have eRecovery included, so I can drop it from the kernel package as well.

Anyway, It'd be really nice if I got AnyKernel working in order to maximize compatibility with next CM versions and save me time.

While I still don't understand why the previous AnyKernel I edited for OB didn't work, let's have another go:

-didn't work-

So, I need someone brave enough to flash it. The worst that can happen is getting stuck on boot and unable to get into eRecovery so you'd have to flash a KDZ.
[LG Optimus Black] fatcobrah:
I have exams this week so i can try it on Wednesday if nobody wants to.bcoz i need my ob now :(
[LG Optimus Black] aprold:
Stuck!

Sadly - no go.

No worries, will try to recall now how this kdz flashing went ;)
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Argh.

But thanks.

Follow this tutorial Aprold:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1275315

You need to wipe data and the normal KDZ flash won't do.
