[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Buh, we're back to v07 then. This is becoming impossible without the phone.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
No worries bro. You're doing a great job here..
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Yep, still failed with v08c, bootloop..

@gabwerkz do you already had your custom v08 kernel?
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Nope, I was just testing what causes the bootloop and to try solely the Lionheart governor, I just edited knzo's v08 kernel and removed/edited files included and took the boot.img from v07. The edited v08 failed to boot as well, so I was thinking it must be the rawr or Lionheart itself.
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Or the opti flags I used.

It was probably this.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
From FAQ, the rawr script not enabled yet, perhaps it comes from Lionheart?

What is that flags purpose?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Optimize size and code.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Based on your SGS2 kernel, is it work very well? So how we can debug/trace this bootloop problems?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
I'm compiling a version without opti flags. Link soon.
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13427114/Nova-kernel-v08-test1.zip

Changelog:

- No opti flags

- No loop on DVFS script
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
on testing process...

Hey, it works... but after remove/restore battery...
[LG Optimus Black] glasoner:
Works!

[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Ok, test2 coming up with kernel injector.

*edit* and this one?: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13427114/Nova-kernel-v08-test2.zip
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
And it's working.. from test1, without wipe dalvik cache.
[LG Optimus Black] glasoner:
The lionheart stuck at 1ghz, is normal knzo?

Enviado desde mi LG-P970 usando Tapatalk
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Alrighty then, test02 will be final version.

Stuck how? Use CPU Spy, put the screen off, wait a few minutes, turn it back on. Refresh the frequencies. Is it always on 100%?

It works pretty well on the SGS2 and it shouldn't lock on any frequency. Check this out:
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Confirmed also, clock is lock at high freq. Even changing it to Lazy, reboot, and still locked at 1000Mhz.
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Even with lazy it's locked onto 1 Ghz? Does the battery reflect this?

Or is it just a display bug you only noticed now? Can you flash Nova v07 and see if it happens too?
[LG Optimus Black] glasoner:
CPU spy seems correct frequencies, in 7 seconds on screen off, 5 in deep sleep and 2 at 600. I believe it's a display bug.

[LG Optimus Black] lvlouro:
Glad I had no time to flash this afternoon ;)

Thank all you beta testers

however dropbox test2 leads nowhere

Is the link in the 1st post updated?
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Hmm, I think I'm not patient and very exciting :D:p

But why I'm not seeing 600 Mhz?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Yes, it is.
[LG Optimus Black] interdan:
@ redy 2006

Whit which nightly version you're testing v8 kernel?
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Nightly Build #20 :)
[LG Optimus Black] pakotbkr:
the final version is coming out in the first post? is that the link does not work v8 test2
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Yup, it's already updated at the front pages ;)
[LG Optimus Black] slimbullet:
update kernel and my black bricked..... no change to entering recovery... have to flash
[LG Optimus Black] pakotbkr:
I'm testing the V8 with # 17 and going great, before I had FC when browsing with Opera mobile but now nothing, it's great!, knzo great job!
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Give me feedback later on Lionheart. Be honest, I can take it!
[LG Optimus Black] lvlouro:
Something went wrong, flashed cm7 wiped cache then flashed nova, but got stuck on LG logo for25 minutes...

gotta go to bed, I'll try again tomorrow
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Which one the version of knzo's kernel? Did you have read the Instructions & FAQ?

-CMIIW-
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
redy, can you reflash CM, wipe dalvik-cache and flash this:

http://www.multiupload.com/1LU86CQLVA ?

Since it's already 2 complaining it didn't boot, I had to put the link down in the first post until you can confirm me again it's working.
[LG Optimus Black] slimbullet:
i used v8.2

---------- Post added at 12:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:14 AM ----------

i´ll try.... give me a few moments

---------- Post added at 12:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 AM ----------

ok, followed instructions and still stuck in boot.... lg black bricked :mad:
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13427114/Nova-kernel-v08-test1.zip

Then it's not test2 working but test1.
[LG Optimus Black] slimbullet:
v8 test1 still not work..... i´ve tried every v8 version of kernel and doesnt worked....only working here is v7
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
How come redy flashed it without problems then? -.-
[LG Optimus Black] slimbullet:
version 7 installed without any problem
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
I received a PM from lempax saying this:
[LG Optimus Black] dxdiag32:
i want to port some of this kernel's featires to froyo kernel,is it possible ;)
[LG Optimus Black] TheGripper:
I flashed v08 test 2 without a problem.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Sorry for late reply, I'm at the office right now.

Okay, what I've done last night.

a clean rom V10A, rooted, CWM-recovery, flash CM7-N#20.

download your test1, wiping dalvik-cache, flash test1. It works.

download your test2, not wiping dalvik-cache, flash test2. It works also. I think perhaps it's because test1 that working earlier.

download your first thread link, check it, compare binary and CRC, it's the same as test2, so I didn't flashing it yet.

and I'm sorry I can't test it right now, because I need this phone alive normally right now because I have work to do :) perhaps tonight I will try.. Or perhaps you already had the next changes with this kernel, tell me later..

Did you flash v08-test2

without

flashing v08-test1 at first?
[LG Optimus Black] jbmir:
Hi knzo, i've flashed Nova-kernel-v08.zip , everything is fine.

In about phone menu says: 2.6.35.7-Nova.v08 msk@dreamcast#4

Thanks for jour job
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
CM7-N#20 + v08-test1 + v08-test2. Without USB cable plugged.
[LG Optimus Black] axpira:
I flashed CM20 + this and the first boot (with 20 min) i removed the battery, and second boot Ok, it's working!!!
[LG Optimus Black] johnnyslt:
this is what i did to make v08 test2 work:

wipe all->install cm #20->gapps-> v08 -> reboot-> not booting(i had access to a shell) -> reboot recovery-> flash v07->reboot->booted ok->reboot recovery->flash v08->

->reboot->and booted ok

I've tried this two times and it worked
[LG Optimus Black] TheGripper:
Weird...all i did was wipe dalvik-cache and then flashed nova v08 and i it was all good. Im on #19.
[LG Optimus Black] axpira:
This working, CM20 + wiping + flash test1 + don't wipe flash first thread link

and now it's working!!!!!

Thanks
[LG Optimus Black] Lleweraf:
Finally! v8-test1 worked on me. But I noticed the Lionheart drains my battery so fast :O
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Really? It shouldn't because isn't as aggressive as smartass or interactiveX.

Check with PowerTutor if it really is the governor.
[LG Optimus Black] johnnyslt:
check with cpu spy, if ur phone goes in deep sleep mode.
[LG Optimus Black] interdan:
Just installed v8 kernel on nightly #14

I followed the instruction in first post and had no problems about installation.

Used cpu spy and there are no problems about sleep mode.

testing Lionheart governor.

thx all developers particularly KNZO :)
[LG Optimus Black] ivanlau:
i think the cpu governor is having some problems.

In my case, it only set on 1000Mhz at the beginning.

After i restarted my phone, it set on 300MHz, and the phone became very slow.

THx:(
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Use CPU Spy for checking out the freqs, not SetCPU.
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
Test 1 works:

- wipe dalvik flashed over #19 to #20.

- reboot

- flash test 1, reboot

- stuck at LG logo, remove battery

- turn the phone again and successfully entering homescreen.

Now the problem is cpu stuck at 1GHz no matter i'm using lionheart, lazy, interactive or smartass :p

Great quadrant btw (unplugged)
[LG Optimus Black] ivanlau:
i have used the cpu spy already.

only deep sleep and 300MHz are having values.:(
[LG Optimus Black] aprold:
This happens when you don't follow the thread at least on daily basis. I was offline yesterday evening and suddenly there is all this mess around new Nova kernel version - it works, it doesn't, oh, wait it does, drat, it still does not.

Anyway, installed CM#20, pulled latest Nova kernel source from github, compiled it and installed it with my kinjector. Everything works. But this is with my own update-script which doesn't install additional Nova scripts. And of course, Knzo's .config file might have been slightly different as well.

Well, the point is that I'm sure there is nothing wrong with kinjector. I'll try to sort this out with Knzo ASAP and I'm happy to test this every possible way I can think of.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
I was wondering why there's no level at 800/600 Mhz?

By the way, I think it has bug with XDA App, it forced to be closed..

"The application XDA (process com.quoord.tapatalkxda.activity) has stopped unexpectedly."
[LG Optimus Black] Lleweraf:
Ok so.. while charging my phone for almost an hour, I checked my CPU Spy and this is what I got :D
[LG Optimus Black] axpira:
For me the same!!!

So i have problem to do a offline charge, is the kernel or the CM20?

The problem is, when connect charge with phone powered off then the phone turn on

Thanks
[LG Optimus Black] pakotbkr:
took about eight hours using the telephone, the data always active and I still have 67% of battery:) I love lionheart
[LG Optimus Black] Lleweraf:
yes.. i experience that one too on some of my apps.. facebook :))
[LG Optimus Black] axpira:
Are you using CM20?
[LG Optimus Black] pakotbkr:
no, I'm using the # 17
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
Try to fix permissions via recovery
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Okay, FC problem solved.
[LG Optimus Black] CalamitySir:
ok i really want to flash this into my CM7 #20 now...but which one do i download? the first page one? and does it guarantees that it works without flashing the nightly #20 again?:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
First post = test-1 = no kernel injector.

Aprold, my github isn't updated. Get me on gtalk.

Good to hear.

Guys, as for the CPU Spy, it may be a display bug. If the kernel is always on 1000 Mhz you will notice in PowerTutor (pie graphic > total time span) a large slice dedicated to CPU, is this the case?
[LG Optimus Black] pakotbkr:
I'm good spy cpu values ​​of 600, must be something of the # 20
[LG Optimus Black] Calvaria:
test#1 works, but wifi bug (energysaving when screen is off) is back and random shutoffs

or reboots into recovery. the fixes from nightly #19/20 are not implemented into this kernel yet.

But great work, go on !
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
I really want to flash this, already download it, but can't afford loosing the phone at this moment... currently I'm at cm7n14+nova05 and can't find any bug... so... how many of you guys has succesfully flash cm7n20+nova08??
[LG Optimus Black] lvlouro:
Successfully installed nova v08

I was one of the unfortunate that couldn't get test2 to work, but now in retrospect I can't recall if after getting stuck on boot and removing battery I allowed the phone to reboot or just forced to enter CWM...

@ knzo: I can test it again, test2 that is, if you'd like me to

will test lionheart since the only downside in this rom/kernel combination is poor battery time

edit: -1% in deep sleep :)
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
I'm talking/testing with Aprold and we found out the cause of test2 not working.
[LG Optimus Black] lvlouro:
just a fist impression of lionheart:

it isn't as snappy as I was used to (was using cm7 #20 no nova kernel and interactive governor)

so I used it a bit like web browsing + gmail app + market + app drawer and cpu never went over 300Mhz:

edit: 600 and 800Mhz not used, is this normal?
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Well from the readings you guys are showing me from CPU Spy I suspect it's either a display bug or something horrible is wrong with Nova v08.
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
I can join you now guys, cm7n20+nova08t1 now working and testing lionheart :D thnx a lot knzo
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
What, wifi died again? -__-"

Btw knzo here's the summary after about 8 hours:

Set cpu also detects high cpu usage and stuck at 1GHz while used. I tested it, open setcpu mainscreen and playing my transparent notification bar. It stayed at 1GHz... no matter what governor i am using.

Already lost 6% in 15 minutes

One more thing, permission denied when i'm trying to execute rawr command.
[LG Optimus Black] vmjoaquim:
Yeap, permission denied as well :/
[LG Optimus Black] Calvaria:
change permissions for /system/bin/rawr with rootexplorer

... eternity might be too short ...
[LG Optimus Black] johnnyslt:
Did you type "su" first?
[LG Optimus Black] aprold:
Well, we know the cause but working on a solution yet. We found out that when we left out pvrsrvinit eRecovery init script then it worked. Why was this script causing the problem is still unclear but the goal right now is not to get this script working but find out how to enter eRecovery with CM's own method.

The section inside CM ramdisk init.rc is the following:

service prb /sbin/prb
user root
disabled
oneshot
keycodes 114 116

Keys 114 and 116 are Volume down and Power but clicking and/or holding them in various combinations didn't get me to eRecovery nonetheless. Has somebody managed to do this without the eRecovery from Knzo's or Huexxx's kernel? What is the correct pseudo-recovery entering key combination for CM?

If we can find this out then there is no need for initializing eRecovery from custom kernels any more.
[LG Optimus Black] ivanlau:
after doing some tests...

I think that it is the display problem only..:)

the phone use only 2% battery for 4h stand by...

about 7% for 1 h whatsapp..

and about 15% for 1h gaming. ..

I also ran benchmark as the shown frequency was 300Mhz....it got about 3000....

hence...I think that it's the display problem only..:)

Moreover, the lionheart is great...the phone runs much smooth than Nova 7...but with smaller battery consumption...:)
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
@aprold Huexxx has manage to enter eRecovery in stock kernel CM. Is this what you looking for? CMIIW.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Would a simple removal of pvrsrvinit on the zip with the original v08 kernel with kinjector do the trick? Or it has to be compiled entirely?
[LG Optimus Black] vmjoaquim:
Yeap I did. Changing the permission of the file didn't help either. Anyway I'm not really sure how the script works though I already read Knzo's FAQ xD So it's fine for me. But has anyone tried the script and worked?
[LG Optimus Black] aprold:
Yes! Thank you! Although this method only allowed me to enter eRecovery couple of times out of 10 tries or so, it lead me to the right direction and I finally got it working 100% by following this procedure:

When LG logo appears, press and hold down both Volume down and Power buttons together for half a second and then release them for another half a second. Repeat this until the screen goes blank for a moment after which you can stop doing this.

If the screen does not go blank and CM logo appears already then you have missed the window of opportunity to enter eRecovery and will have to try again.

It's safe to say we don't need eRecovery initialization inside Nova kernel any more and it will be removed from update-script from now on. Which means you'll have to forget the old method and keep in mind the procedure described above. When this happens the first page gets updated as well.

And one more thing. Much more important than this eRecovery business. As Knzo has stated he will be very occupied starting the next year and he has asked me to take over his kernel development. We have already discussed this quite thoroughly and I really hope I can live up to your expectations. These are some big shoes to fill indeed. Knzo has promised to help me out as much as he can but more than that I need all your support, too. The most important thing is to keep an eye out for interesting new patches and mods which look nice to integrate into Nova kernel. This is probably the most time consuming task and your help in pointing these things out would be very appreciated!

First thing tonight I'll build new Nova kernel version and we'll continue from there. From the looks of the things ICS is going to be here pretty soon and GB is left where it is right now. And of course, when ICS nightlies start then new Nova kernel follows.

Kind regards,

Aprold

---------- Post added at 11:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ----------

Yes, it's enough only to remove this script.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
To add to that. Volume up + power with the same procedure reboots the phone normaly. No need to remove battery anymore if it failed to boot for the first time.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Nice going aprold, having you here to continue the development, and the others (including me) as beta-tester.. :D:p

Thanks to all of you, who keep maintain the development. Salute.. ;)
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
So it's settled then: display bug. Nice. :)

Yes, it's true. It's not so much the time consumed in the kernel itself (the building is 10 minutes and I spend < 1 hour when I'm looking for tweaks on some days); the real problem is the debugging. Since I don't have the Black, I have no idea (only suspect) if a new feature will: a) break the kernel and won't boot, b) help performance, c) decrease performance, where a) and c) will demand immediate action. I spend too much time building and waiting for feedback on test1, test2, test3, test4... when I could just test it myself if I had the device.

For this reason, it's easier if someone else takes over Nova, someone who can test new stuff himself and that above all, has the interest and bases needed to keep this going. That being said, I already requested the thread transfer to Aprold. I will talk to him and share everything I know and send him stuff I find interesting. But more important of all, he'll be the one to make sure that this kernel will work on ICS (which is nearer than you think).
[LG Optimus Black] officialreloaded:
Thanks a lot knzo for your continuous support since the beginning.

And also a warm welcome Aprold for continuing nova kernel. We also hope having some good dev, it will be having like a professor whom we can ask minor debugging queries as well. Like knzo's tutorials and explanations in past. :) .

( PS - seeing knzo's small comment ics is near, well, when ics early build comes out, i guess this forum will get some heat from active senior members like aprold, huexxx, iiklo etc. and others. And we are gonna enjoy it. :D )
[LG Optimus Black] ogremount:
Briliant job you two.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
It won't last for 24 hours, the v08. I think now I should downgrade the kernel back to v07, and waiting for aprold's kernel :)
[LG Optimus Black] axpira:
What's CM version?

Can I use #20 with v07?
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Of course you can. Now I'm #20 with v08. Waiting for ~5% battery, and will flash v07, then charges :D
[LG Optimus Black] axpira:
Do you know (or tested) how many time you can use #20 with v07?

Thanks
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
I've had 1 day and 10 to 15 hours battery life from 100% to 0%.

Daily usage: 2G, Call, SMS, Whatsapp, Ubersocial, Browser, XDA App, and Google+.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Alright, I was able to boot the original v08 that happened to fail last time. I chose to edit this cause of all the enhancements putted to it (kinjector, opti flags). I'll test this first before aprold release an update..
[LG Optimus Black] glasoner:
What is aprold?

Enviado desde mi LG-P970 usando Tapatalk
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Wah! :confused: Aprold is a member here. He'll take care of Nova Kernel from now on..
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
It's in your hands now aprold, make me proud.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
aprold is an agent who sent into The Matrix to hacking the system, so we can get a new system based on CyanogenMod + Nova kernel.

LOL :D:p

And you are the guru's, knzo :D
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
I have the same results, it's only 1 day... less actually since my last post... and already had to charge twice... btw I'm using cm7n20+nova08 and lionheart gov, it has greatter performance but don't feel so friendly with the battery [that's in my case] still will test it for the rest of the week
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
@knzo

I have to say that all frequencies are all present and accounted for. No unused frequency with the orig v08 (not v08 test1). Screenshot later..

Too early to say?

And this is all i could muster *with rawr. I/O is sky rocketing. I believe lesp4ul got 4000+
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
yo, waddup ? :p
[LG Optimus Black] naeem86:
LOL..you made my day!xD hahaha...
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
i got it once :D
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Nice one bro! :)
[LG Optimus Black] lvlouro:
That's a lot of posts for one day...

Gotta say somethings:

1) entering eRecovery --> I managed to enter it every time and used a different approach: whem powering the phone I would never release power button and then started to repeatedly pressing vol down like crazy until I enter CWM

2) Thanks knzo for every thing

3) welcome aprold

4) lionheart is working great for me, I've improved battery life when compared to cm20 stock kernel or cm16 or cm20 nova07

here are my screenshots of cpuspy and batt

I know it seems bad but I have poor reception where I work and I can assure you it is an improvement.

Still bugged with 600 and 800Mhz

edit:

5) quadrant score sucks got 2000+ but performance isn't worse than before, so I say: hell with benchmarks
[LG Optimus Black] aprold:
Ok, this was mostly a formality and nothing evolutionary here but I've updated Nova kernel v08. Please see the updated download link on the first page. In addition to simply building it from Github sources and applying Knzo's existing config only 2 changes were done:

- Removed eRecovery from kernel update script as it is already present inside CM
- Updated hosts file (Used for blocking Ad server addresses)

Will try to come up with something more profound tomorrow.
[LG Optimus Black] vmjoaquim:
Hmmm, I've seen alot of the term 'eRecovery' but I don't really understand what is it. To be accurate, I'm confused. Is eRecovery the recovery option from the power off menu or the recovery option when booting up by pressing the hardware buttons? :D

Anyway, just a short note. After using Nova v8, I've noticed that charging/internet browsing causes the phone to become very warm. I know it's normal for the phone to become warm under these conditions, but the temperature becomes worryingly high. I've never experienced such high temperatures before. Also, when charging from 0% to 50%, the battery charges up pretty quickly but slows down from 51% onwards. I'm not sure if it's only me having these problems, though daily usage has not been affected, I just wonder why are these happening. :)

The new Lionheart governor's working great for me though! Although I still have to charge it daily, but I guess that's normal for a smartphone xD Never experienced any frequency lock so far. :)
[LG Optimus Black] CalamitySir:
someone managed to get the rawr command working?
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
permission denied :confused:

I've noticed that too, charging seems to be a bit slower than before

BTW I'm not complaning about the battery... just don't see quite normal this happening...:confused:
[LG Optimus Black] CalamitySir:
jes0411, i managed to get the rawr command working from his help:

Using ES File Explorer or for those who have root explorer, go to system/bin and find the file rawr, click and hold onto it to change the file permission and enable/tick all the execute boxes. Then try it out in Terminal Emulator. The highest score i got in quadrant was 3400+
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
yeap set the permission to:
