kernel for v20n?
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
I don't think so. The kernel might not working well with stock GB. And it might need to be fixed... :)
[LG Optimus Black] LookedPath:
Thank you for your powerful kernel...

Hope you will release it soon but I'm scared to flash it because I think that if you have added some other mods our phones will be able to be like transformers... :D

We'll fight it :D
[LG Optimus Black] Thes1ev:
So is there any way I can help if I'm not from USA? I've heard about this sht a lot and it seems to be scary I must say... I don't like that some shty organisation can sue you because you play some music on your stream for example etc. Some info -> here and here

Ps. sry for offtopic
[LG Optimus Black] timvdhoorn:
don't place that here o.O place it on the thread i posted earlyer...
[LG Optimus Black] LookedPath:
any good news about the work on the kernel?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Aprold has the flu but v12 is basically done. Wait a few more days.
[LG Optimus Black] timvdhoorn:
any progress>?
[LG Optimus Black] stellar_d:
Pretty sure you'll know when there is.
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
It is possible to add BLN compatibility to Nova v12?

Hope Nova v12 wont be much longer...
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
Any news about Nova v12?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Soon, a lil' longer plix. :$

I had to format and I'm at the moment downloading the repo to do some tweakage.
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
Hope this weekend we can enjoy your hard and great work with Nova v12.

thank you for your dedication!
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
A large slice of it it's Aprold's, I just help every now and then.
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
Thank you both :D
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
OT

Congrats with the Phoenix project guys. I want to follow but will wait for new devices.
[LG Optimus Black] timvdhoorn:
hope it will be released this weekend! can someone confirm this? :P
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
No they are not included. Perhaps Knzo has no time to test in CM build. You may however try them as well as init.d scripts. You can delete them anyway if you felt nothing was gained. For me, init.d scripts worked wonders. As my highest Quadrant so far is 3200+.
[LG Optimus Black] :
Nice. Thanks.
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
Hello.

I've flashed knzo's kernel on top of CM7-SK5. I'm experiencing, so far, three relevant issues:

1.- The display's rightmost 2-3 mm aren't sensitive. When typing on portrait mode, it's hard to press "p" or "backspace".

2.- Camera app freezes when trying to record video, and I can't restart it again even after stopping the process. I need to reboot.

3.- Sound quality (through normal speaker) in calls (incoming and outgoing) is very bad, comes distorted and screechy to an unpleasant degree.

Now my question: do you think these are CM7 issues, or knzo's kernel?

Another question: can I revert from knzo's to SK5 kernel without having to reflash the whole CM7 thing, wipe, reinstall apps, etc? Is there any patch around there for this?

Thank you!
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
This kernel is based on CM SK4's.

Those are fixes that came into SK5 and I haven't updated the code on this kernel yet.
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
Thanks knzo!

Actually I have just backed up and flashed clean CM7-SK5, but at least the camera issue is still there. The display problem, however, is gone...

Anynow I'd rather use your kernel. It's more efficient. :) For this purpose, would you recomend me to use CM7-SK4 instead of CM7-SK5, and then flash your v0?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
If it works with SK5, it's fine then.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
For the video issue, Use High instead of HD. But be very quick on selecting. Next time camera restarts, video would function, no HD capture though.
[LG Optimus Black] imam.krismanto:
When you will release new version?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Not anytime soon.

I even had to format my PC and I only have Windows at the moment (needed MS Office) so even if I wanted to release a new version, I still have to install a linux distro but I'm lazy and without time. I don't mind if anyone wants to take up the kernel while I can't.
[LG Optimus Black] Huexxx:
Hi all!

I'm already preparing my stuff... (Ubuntu 11.04 x64, java6, SDK, Eclipse, etc) to try in a short time to cook my own kernels...

I'm a little lost yet but I trust in my possibilities... ;)

I'm right now looking at sync my repo but I'm having troubles with hacked kernel.org and a little bit of misunderstanding, but we'll see what can I get.

Maybe one day I'll ask some things to you, knzo...

Right now I'm enjoying my Nova v8 OB a bit...

Regards!
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
It's easier than it looks.

If you have any questions get me in G+ or something.
[LG Optimus Black] bobetin:
knzo, do you know why your kernel flip my front camera image ??
[LG Optimus Black] Huexxx:
Allright...
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Glad to hear that Master Huexxx, because I have faith in you... LOL :D:p

I don't have much time to do experiment.. But perhaps I can help you with beta-testing if your cooked kernel released to public..

Not for me (yet), still had to learning... :confused:

Thanks to all of you..
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
Thanks Huexxx. I'm watching this threads and looking forward to improvements for CM7. So far I've tested SK5 and SK6, and also knzo's v0, but there's a lot to improve there yet. For the moment, I'm using good "old" reliable Nova v8. But I'll keep testing whatever updates to the kernel you (or other devs) may issue.

By the way: I know that they're two different forums, but it's a pity that there's not a "unified" discussion-testing forum thread for CM7-P970, instead of two (Rootzwiki and XDA).
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
actually there are 3, 2 of them here @ xda
[LG Optimus Black] Huexxx:
initing and syncing repo from github...

When I will be able to simply compile stock CM7 kernel and it works, I'll begin with this stuff...

Regards.

[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Due to so many people asking for help, I posted on Google+ a short tutorial on how to build a kernel for CM:

https://plus.google.com/117517473602201786067/posts/GWqPN81KPde

Let the kernel spam begin!
[LG Optimus Black] eminent1410:
Good kernel. Can I use it for 2.3.4 20N or only for CM? :(
[LG Optimus Black] stellar_d:
Nope. Probably time to stop asking. Pretty sure this is one of the golden rules. Excellence takes time.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
It's only for CM. The kernel source of GB Stock ROM hasn't released yet by LG. You can tried to flash it, but mostly you will get bootloop.. ;)
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
It may work for both but currently only CM. In S2 works for both. When the source comes out we can try to make it work.
[LG Optimus Black] ocovarr112:
so, im new at this lg optimus black, yesterday I flash cyanogenmod7 nightly 50, do I have to flash this for better perfomance/tweets?, I know is not obligatory but im asking for advices...

sry about my pretty bad english =P

Edit: Can I flash this on CWM recovery?
[LG Optimus Black] lvlouro:
Wait for next version, this is kinda outdated
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
Yes you do

Yes you can

People! Stop whining about the release of V12...

it will be up when it's up..
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
yeah... I don't want to start complaining but I think there won't be any release soon since they (knzo and aprold) are working at phoenix project which is already at market
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
Hope your wrong... CM7's dev stopped (or it seems so), Nova v12 hope wont go the same way... I was supposed to be released a few days ago (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21521496&postcount=971)...

We just have to wait and hope for the best

[LG Optimus Black] rox75:
What is the phoenix project?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
off-topic:

Phoenix is a project for Galaxy S2 that takes the kernel development and app integration to another level. The application can be found here. The official site is here: www.phoenix-kernel.com

However, S2's community is the unfriendliest I've ever came across with and it wasn't long until the thread was locked because we were supposedly misleading the users with LionheartX governor (apparently you can't grab a governor, tweak & patch it and then rename it on the S2 community). Without the thread working as a bridge between us and the users, we are probably going to drop it even though we're still discussing it and we have many requests not to pursue this path but honestly I'm too fed up.

on-topic:

While it is true v12 was nearly ready and only some heavy testing was needed (due to the implemented oc and vdd interface), I kind of distracted Aprold by bringing him in on the Phoenix thing.

Currently I'm trying to find a LG P970 and hang on the little motivation I still have to contribute to the android community but I can't seem to find any sellers.

Either way, whether Aprold will release v12 soon or if he'll continue with development even if I don't get the device, it's entirely up to him and you need to ask him that. I think so though.
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
Aprold, can you share some news?
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
how different nova12 can be if nova11 is working just fine with every new release of cm7 and temasek's cm7??

I mean, everytime I flash a new nightly I flash nova11 right away and never caused a bootloop nor FC or anything...

I think is more of a implementing new things than a compatibility thing, I don't know I'm just guessing :p
[LG Optimus Black] re4lsk:
12 its 1 unit more :P

just trolling
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
OH MY GOD! I just looked into the project, and it's definitly one of the most amazing things, that I've EVER seen! Hope it will work for our phone. Guess I really need to get serious programming skills, in order to be able to join and help you guys out ;) If this is possible to be ported to our device, I would even wait almost a year for it :D I mean, we are used to wait, since LG tought us, how to do it ;)

But seriously, better wait with the release, until this is built in.
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
mother of god ! :eek:

after seeing that,i don't know what to say,but thank you

you release the nova-tweak app to us for free :D

thanks again knzo & aprold :)

---------- Post added at 07:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:32 AM ----------

they say it has an OC capability ;)
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
Off topic, i recently flashed your kernel on S2 and and sometimes it won't wake up from deep sleep. Any suggestion for idle governor/cpu clock?

I've pm'd aprold a while ago asking are the any changes in v12 kernel nova settings menu but still no answer.
[LG Optimus Black] Honusnap:
Hahaha .. funny how you see things... :), just tweaking sources and rebadging them.. not providing your own sources, selling an app that put init.d script there and there for 3€.. commmooooonnn .. !!!
[LG Optimus Black] Huexxx:
:eek: ..............................
[LG Optimus Black] 1aca:
Nobody's forcing you or anyone else to buy it. Feel free to not use it, or tweak it on your own. What do you think most developers do, especially after the first rough implementation? That's right, they tweak sources and get paid to do it. Seems to me you got absolutely no idea of the amount of work involved in tweaking sources. Kindly refrain from commenting on what you have no clue about.
[LG Optimus Black] aprold:
Nova v12

Hello everybody!

I start by saying that my guilt of abandoning you has already grown too big to ignore it any further. I pulled out and dusted off my good old P970 and started up my VirtualBox development environment. Trying to recall where I was left off. One thing I remember was doing overclocking with procfs at first and starting to move this interface to sysfs instead. This code refactoring was needed to make my own OC implementation compatible with existing apps such as SetCPU and alike. Being a S2 owner for couple of weeks now I know how these interfaces should look like and are much easier to implement now.

Here's the plan:

1) finish moving OC from procfs to sysfs this evening;

2) test everything thoroughly tomorrow (I still have a feeling that some changes in v11 kernel had a negative impact on performance, will try to understand which exactly and did they improve battery life instead perhaps);

3) release the v12 on Sunday! (feel free to put lynching team together if not!)

In the meantime it really looks like Knzo is seriously considering joining the Optimus Black community again if only there'd be a phone handily for sale... You can help by pointing out killer deals on used phones around the world. My motivation to keep hands on with the kernel and app would increase tremendously if Knzo would be on board as well.

Regards,

Aprold
[LG Optimus Black] reinbeau:
Actually, it is against the rules to make anything on XDA and expect payment for it.

You can ask for donations, that's it. If this dev project requires payment of any kind the thread will be shut down.
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
On 2), if there was a performance decrease the best candidate was the switching of Tiny Preempt RCU to Tiny RCU even though the reason for this change and its "test drive" was to attempt saving more battery as it should have less wake-ups.
[LG Optimus Black] 1aca:
However that might be, it doesn't change my reply at all. Honusnap did not talk about forum policies, s/he was merely bashing developer work.

Changing the updater-script to mount the partitions via sbin/busybox should be enough.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
like so bro?

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");

EDIT: Flashed Nova Kernel successfully via CWM recovery Touch using above code. thanks Knzo.
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
OK, sorry for being a noob, but which lines did u replace by

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");

?

This one?

assert(mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p8", "/system"));

or a different one?

Just wanna learn from the pros ;)
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
If you've seen the logfile above, says:

mount: failed to mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p10 at /cache: Device or resource busy
script aborted: assert failed: mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p10", "/cache")
Nova kernel updater

That mounting is the cause of status 7 (assert failed: mount)(mmcblk0p10). As per knzo advised regarding mounting, I replaced that line. And It went through. :)

"system" should be replaced to "cache". Cause it's the cache that's being mounted.

assert(mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p10", "/cache"));

to

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/cache");

Kernel version is Nova v11, Nova Settings is there. CMIIW

Also, Knzo mentioned partitionS

So:

assert(mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p8", "/system"));
assert(mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p9", "/data"));
assert(mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p10", "/cache"));

to

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/cache");

I only replaced "cache mounting" as per error with the new CWM Touch
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Alright, thanks mate ;-) always trying to learn new stuff and get some skills :D

Just hope the smilies arent confusing...
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Hah, viewing in the phone via app will cause that. :D
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
assert(mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p8", "/system"￼);

Did u try to simply remove assert() ? Seems to do the same trick, if i am not wrong, since zeus rom uses the same commands and they seem to be working :)

Like

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p8", "/system");

Hope i did everything right here on my cell ...
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
I only tried sbin/busybox. If that went through and see changes then it's good as well.
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
I tried flashing it, on top of zeus (of course no use), but installation went well ;-)
[LG Optimus Black] timvdhoorn:
looking forward to tomorrow :D
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
The kernel works on Zeus? ;o
[LG Optimus Black] CalamitySir:
thank you aprold cant wait to see v12 tomorrow! Faith in humanity has been restored once again!
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
No, u got me wrong :p As i wrote (no use)... but I simply wanted to check out, how I can correct the flashing procedure, so that it works with touch CWM. IT DOES NOT WORK WITH Zeus... Would love to have it, cause it pushes the phone pretty much, with the right settings ;)
[LG Optimus Black] pk76:
And what are right settings? Any advice and examples?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
When the kernel gingerbread source is out, it's possible to make it work for zeus.
[LG Optimus Black] Samoht59:
Why my network settings crash and the wifi shut down always after 30mins with lags. Always have to reboot.

HELP please.
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
If you have CM installed, this might be due to an update. So just reinstall everything (rom first with full wipe) after apply the kernel, then restore apps with titanium (backup em up before u wipe) and it should work again. Maybe u only played with the settings, so just undo ur changes.
[LG Optimus Black] ocovarr112:
So which is the best combination between nova kernel plus ROM, cyanogenmod? And if it is cyanogen which nightly ? I will appreciate any answer cuz IM on zeuz but I want to use this amazing kernel on version 12.
[LG Optimus Black] re4lsk:
glad to help

AFAIK Nova kernel only works on CM and CM Kangs (like the Temasek's kang) and not on nova rom, and FYI nova ROM is outdated (is froyo).

If you want a stable ROM use Zeus or a GB repack, CM and Temasek kangs are not perfect, but if you dont mind the sound bugs try CM7 and either kernel (thou I prefer stock CM kernel)

:D
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
Hi aprold,

There are some changes in CM7 default kernel. Maybe this will help make Nova v12 better... https://github.com/CyanogenMod/lge-kernel-sniper/compare/335af7a6e3...7baef8a847
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Only one of those is handy.

The other is an update to BFQ which we already have on the kernel (and he only updated to v2r1, when there's also a newer one) but either way I don't like BFQ on Android since it doesn't seem to work as good on flash devices as deadline or simple does.

The gcc commit is to allow building the kernel with linaro 4.6 but to be honest the toolchain, regardless of which one it is, doesn't have much impact on performance or stability. Ezekeel did some myth busting on this a while ago and you can search for his thread here in XDA.
[LG Optimus Black] timvdhoorn:
is it almost ready to release :D?
[LG Optimus Black] ocovarr112:
so did u use CM or CM kags (if last, where can I find this ROM)

Thx a lot 4 ur answer!
[LG Optimus Black] timvdhoorn:
you can find the CM7 kangs HERE (if there is any new kang just follow te comments)

and the CM7 Nightly HERE
[LG Optimus Black] timvdhoorn:
there are comming some interesting Bug fixes for volume maybe you can include these? https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_lge_p970/commits/gingerbread/

Hi,

I've update to the latest nightly (#61) and wake on volume keys works!

Can you include and tweak this to make work on Nova v12 with G button? I had an impression that the wake on G button doesn't always work, maybe with this it will work ever!

Maybe has something to do with this commit: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/401dfc157c0d859d7baceae1b880d73bc0728faa
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
