[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Ok fellas, every once in a while I will open up and ask for a few people to become beta testers for us. Sometimes its not a much fun as it sounds so please read this in its entirety.

What you get-

New beta's that are not available for public use. These beta's usually include experimental additions, some big, some small. I test and make sure they are stable before you get them, so there is little chance for an Epic failure. You will receive an email with a link to the test kernel, along with instructions and what we added. You will also be added to the OP as a tester.

Who we are looking for-

-People who will report back with details as to how testing is going. We need to know whats working good, and whats not.

-People who can generate a logcat and/or dmesg if needed without assistance

-People who are willing to run AOSP build's. Sometimes you will get stock pulled beta's, but nine out of ten times they will be source built. This means if your not able to run non stock kernels, this WILL NOT be for you.

-People who do not share or pass out information on these beta's

Important info-

-It's very important to keep in mind that beta testing is not for everyone. Often times its difficult to change your set up when you like what you currently have and its working well for you.

-You may receive a beta as often as once a day (sometimes twice), or a little as once every couple of days.

-Feedback is key to this whole process

Final Word-

If you meet all of this criteria and would like to be part of the beta testing team please PM me with your contact info. I'll pick three or four of you and get back to you as soon as I can. Myself and the E4GT community thank you!

The second core hotplugs in/out depending on load.

Unless the system is under heavy load (like a StabilityTest stress test on both cores), the second core will get shut down to the point where parts of the system don't even think it's there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Quick update:

We are in the final round of testing. Hoping to have a public release tomorrow for you guys. The kernel will include merged changes from the EK02 source that's now available, along with a few other nice supprises. Stay tuned :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Nice, I am hoping that this update solves Los since I would love to run your custom kernels exclusively.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Updated!!! Please review changelog prior to installing :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neilkarunatilaka:

Sweet! Just what I was waiting for. Thanks SH!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I have to try this out. I saw you added lazy governor. I am using Ezekeel's kernel on my Nexus. People should like that governor. Thanks Team Rogue
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neilkarunatilaka:
First run on Quadrant got 4300, and I haven't touch OC settings, seems pretty smooth so far :) Hopefully no LoS or reboots, will report back!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greatlakesghost:
Thank you sir! Been waiting for this as much as miui!

Question, just curious, but can anyones hit 1704 stable? I tried, it freezes up for me haha, prolly too fast, :P

Set at min/max of 1600mhz, performance, Quadrant gets an amazing 5900
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I bet Rounsy can. I am waiting to see what he says..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] globen:
Yeah stable on 1704, heres is my quadrant score!

Quick question...

I am currently on the Verizon PRL 00001... Do I still need to update profile/PRL after first boot as instructed on the OP? Or does only apply to those on standard Sprint PRLs? TIA.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graphic1982:
i'm also using that PRL, I updated to this kernel and didn't do any profile/prl update and i'm not having any issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Hmmm I'm getting a "Your device is not available" message in Tegrak now when I try to load the overclock module. Could this be kernel related?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
It probably is since it has overclock frequencies built in to it. I was fooling around with overclock using SetCPU on this kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HondaCop:
Thanks.

If you update PRL it will replace 00001 with 60683.

Flashing profile is probably alright.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Thunder_PC:
quick run @1704 after flashing...thanks for this!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
The profile and PRL update should not be needed on this kernel. This kernel does incorporate kernel source from EK02, so I recommend upgrading to the new EK02 modem as well (although its not needed). If you run into issues, update profile and PRL.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] toprock23:
Use setcpu if u have it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bad--Dog:
I used system tuner from the market when I switched to outlaw and got that message out off tegrak, it allows UV and over or under clocking
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Tegrak only works for stock kernels on the ET4G, use setcpu or another app
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Right on thanks guys. For some reason I thought Tegrak could also be used on a custom kernel. I'll use SetCPU.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cjwaggsrx8:
Desperado!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ffkip911:
great kernel!!! My quadrant was 5111----effing amazing!!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Will Calk's undervolt scripts work on the latest?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
His init.d scripts? Yes, they should.

I would get heavy ghost LoS on custom kernels, it may be too early to tell but applying the .diff may have solved that problem for me. I've been running this kernel for 24 hours with no ghost LoS (and would usually get about 1-2 per day).

I'm also reporting better battery life. Great work, as always, Steady. Running Calk's ROM and this kernel turns our phone into a SUPERBEAST.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
The ".diff"? This update just dropped today, is that included?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ewalk4866:
Great kernel the battery life is amazing!thanks for all your hard work :)

Caulks scripts made my phone reboot with this kernel. without them it was fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I'm using voltage control and have it set at SIO/OnDemand. 1200 Max with -100 on each step and it is running great. Voltage control uses init.d scripts to save as boot so you can sort of make your own and then set it.

Are you guys changing the governor or voltages? Cuz I'm only getting a score of 3900 when OC @ 1.704Ghz and using the PERFORMANCE governor, 2900 w/ the ONDEMAND governor and 2600 w/ the LAZY governor :confused:...TIA!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HappyFillmore:
When I did the undervolting with voltage control i would get reboots. Caulks scripts with pre E0k2 worked awesome.

Make sure you don't undervolt too much otherwise you will get reboots, deep sleep, etc.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cjwaggsrx8:
Yeah I got 5834 even though quad scores don't mean much. But damn!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KingOfThaJungle:
Did you use the conservative governor or did you change it to a different one when testing?...NVMD, I finally was able to score 5900+ by setting both max & min to 1.704Ghz and selecting the PERFORMANCE governor :D...thanks for posting this Mr. Hawkins, great effin J O B!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
just noticed my gps won't lock now.

not sure if it is from the kernel cause i made some other changes, just mentioning.. anyone else?

i'm on calkulin 2.0.1a with ek02 modem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] utbiglall:
Im on the same setup with calk 2.01 ek02 and have noticed a delay in gps lock that has not been there before. It does eventually lock but takes about 5 minutes for me. Small sacrifice for such an amazing kernel/Rom/modem or whatever is causing the delay.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KingOfThaJungle:
Im on 2.0.1a and its working great, definitely no 5 min delay...have you guys check your setup in SETTINGS>LOCATION AND SECURITY? Hope this helps...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
before i could NOT get the GPS to lock no matter what i did. just checked on my drive home and it locked within 10 seconds in 3 different apps.. hrmmm..

i turned wifi on and off a couple of times, but definitely didn't reboot or flash or anything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ejbmvp:
i understand quadrants dont hold much weight, but i cannot seem to pull over 3300. anyone care to throw their 2cents in to as why? i am using Calkulin's E4GT v2.0.1a w/Desperado.

gps works nice so far, 8/10 locks within seconds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
Are you overclocking and changing govnah to performance?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JGW310:
Nevermind!!! Sorry
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
you guys know that you have to run quadrant 3 or 4 times in a row to get the highest scores..

and, of course, these scores really mean absolutely nothing, right?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ejbmvp:
nope, didnt know i had to run it mutliple times, thanks. but yea i know it dont mean much, just a peace of mind for knowing i can have similar results as to others... ok just ran it 4x and i hit over 4000 for once, without doing any overclocking

---------- Post added at 11:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 AM ----------

no i am not. this is probally why then. to be honest, i have no idea how to. are these apps i need to install? but also, if i mess with that would this override Calks battery saver script?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
just got my fastest score ever on this phone 6107!

Performance gov, oc'd to 1600, voltage @ 1375

of course, keeping it set like that would demolish the battery, so its back to "lazy" governor
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] maddoggin:
anyone having issues using this kernel with caulklins rom?

edit* hey hawk in order to use this in a stock rom i have to modify the updater script to add the install helper and stuff like the way it is in your update zip? i try using this on a stock deodexed rom by just adding the zimage and the install helper but it wont boot! so i looked at ur updater script and saw that its specific to the install helper. so i need to add this to my updater script right?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
using it with Venums rom, which is based off caulks, with no probs what so ever..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JGW310:
What app are you using to overclock and set the governor??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ejbmvp:
using Calkulin's E4GT v2.0.1a w/ this for several hours now and no problems here
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
Set CPU works best on this kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] maddoggin:
yeah but did you flash the zip provided by hawk or did you remove the Zimage and install helper files from inside the zip and place them into the rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vegasden:
For me, using Caulkin's bare Rom, I flashed the kernel as is and no issues at all.

.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:

My phone is defaulting to conservative instead of lazy...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Daemontrain:
I tried flashing this over Calks v2.0.1a and it bootlooped me. Also tried downloading it twice thinking perhaps it was a bad download. Any ideas? :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KingOfThaJungle:
did you wipe cache and dalvik before flashing?...at this point though, if you are already stuck in a boot loop you may have to wipe data also...

+1

Try setting both max and min to 1600 and the governor to PERFORMANCE, then run Quadrant a few times and by the 3x you should definitely hit above 5500+ :D!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] numus:
Did Quadrant with stock settings and lazy govenor and got around 4500...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Daemontrain:
Yep did all that. It appeared to flash correctly, but after the boot animation it's like the phone just shut off. I let it go, and when it did boot, it just bootlooped. Not knocking Steadyhawkin's work on this, I really dig the kernels and work he does. Just wanted to report my findings. Also I should mention that after all the looping, I booted into recovery and tried to flash the restore I did previous to flashing the kernel and it bootlooped too. All is well now though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
If you are using calks rom then the scripts for underclocking the cpu has it in the scripts where the conservative governor is selected by default when underclocking I believe
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] numus:
Makes sense if it is defaulted to that.. I haven't touched anythign in the underclock script... I thought the only thing that was set on default was the power saving script tho...

That is all i could find but didn't save anything about conservative governor so figured I would ask..

Edit:

I looked in 2cpufreq_governor and it looks like he has conservative set to 1... i will just override this with setcpu then...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Yeah I knew it had something to do With the scripts lol.. I just set setcpu to lazy and apply at boot
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
Well the scripts Getty overwritten if you change the governor?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] numus:
I am afraid I do not understand the question.

I just failed to even look at calk's scripts before i mentioned that the governor was being set as conservative eventho this kernel is suppose to default to lazy.

The script is overriding the kernel defaults... Options are to either remove the script from init.d (i am to lazy to do this) so I am just using setcpu to override it (setcpu sets at 10 seconds after OS load so it will override init.d scripts)...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ebuechler3:
Is lazy the best for battery life? Conservative was set at default... which one is better on my battery and thnks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I use SIO/OnDemand and get good battery and performance. But everyone will have different results.

Sent from a Blazed SGS II
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ebuechler3:
What's SIO? Is it like setcpu
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
SIO is the scheduled. SetCPU doesn't give the option to change this like Voltage Control does. So I use the SIO or "Simple In/Out" Scheduler and the OnDemand Governor

really love this kernels hawk but does this remove the ability for stock animations? like if i dont use a bootanimation.zip or sanim.zip will the stock boot ani still work? doesnt seem to! thanks for all your work bro, this recovery is awesome! i use thew stock boot animation from the stock galxy i9000 thats why i ask
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I don't have any boot animation. Just the stock silver android. It seems to be working. Not sure if that is what's you was wondering or not.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] maddoggin:
Yeah that's what I was talking about! And so it works huh? Maybe something i'm doing then. Ok thanks!

Nope, that silver Android bootanimation isn't stock, just installed it and it removed my stock bootanimation. Damn!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I personaly dont use any boot and shutdown animations other than the solve android. I just deleted the boot animation and sanif zips along with the video folder in system/media and then the two mp3s in system/etc. That's it.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ebuechler3:
So I set mine to sio and lazy.. what kind of battery life are you getting with your Voltage Control set to sio and on demand? Is that better than lazy?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Lazy is really the same as On demand just has a few extra features. Not sure what those features are exactly. As for battery. I'm getting a days worth out of my phone with regular use. I'm generally online most of the time. I say I'm getting 6-8 hours of screen on? time and a few hours of standby. I have also thinned down the system folder and done alot of mods to it so I don't know if that would effect it or not.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I know on the Nexus, people run lazy governor with 800 Max instead of stock 1000 and don't have any chop or lag while browsing or gaming so I assume the same would apply on this phone. You can probably dial back the max a bit and get great battery with stock-like performance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ebuechler3:
I think 6 to 8hrs on display, screen on is amazing! Can you post screen shots of your battery life and display screens? Thnks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JGW310:
flashed this kernel earlier today with Blazer ROM, and I am a little disappointed with the battery life... performance has been good, but battery life has pretty much tanked :(

any suggestions??

I am running Blazer ROM v1.2 (the latest build), superfreeze script, and this kernel with setcpu at min 200 max 1200 on lazy governor......

UPDATE-- I was running some Quadrants, overclocking and stuff, it froze at 1.7ghz so i did a battery pull, booted my phone and was at 21% from being at 49% before i rebooted..... :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] numus:
There are changes in the time-in-state on the downscaling i believe... If I remember correctly it stays longer in each state as it scales down from a higher state (or maximum).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Would love too. Haven't been on it much today so it only has like two hours of screen on time but tomorrow when Im home all day I should be able to get it easily. This us what I have today.

I has never had any LOs on Eg30 Or EK02. Since I installed this version (I was previously running 1.1) I have had LOS twice. What could it be?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
I think your 6-8 hour screen on time guesstimate is a bit off. That would be so incredible id have to see it to believe it. I bet your closer to 4.5 hours max though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
When I'm off tomorrow and I can keep my phone on for that amount of time without interruption I'll post a screen. Sundays are my down days and last Sunday I got a little over six before I had to charge it. Don't know what's ill get tomorrow. Other Sundays I have got more and some less. Just depends if I'm surfing the web or playing games or what. But I assure you. I wouldn't say I get it if it wasn't the case. One of my biggest grips is unreasonable battery life quotes.

Edit. This also depends on when the update drops. But that should effect me too bad.

You may be surprised what getting rid of auto brightness. Undervolting and cleaning the system folder out would accomplish.

Sent from a Blazed SGS II
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
You've got that right sir. Preach! No auto brightness, clean up your system/app folder, undervolt or underclock a touch and see what happens. I only do the first two and its like night and day
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rksand:
I know its OT, but other than uninstalling apps, how does one clean up the system/app folder?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brushrop03:
I would like to know this too? And what apps do you uninstall for better battery life? I know a lot of stock apps I just don't use at all i.e Social Hub
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
give the kernel a few days to settle..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
sorry I meant will caulks battery saver script be over written if you use set cpu to change the governor?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] quick99si:
You're probably better off freezing them instead. I disable everything related to Bluetooth, System Updates, widgets, live wallpapers, keyboards, voicemail etc.. the biggest benefit probably comes from freezing the social network items. Check your running processes after a fresh boot and see what you don't need or use.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Sorry for being off topic. I will make a list of everything I removed from system. Its more then just that though. I also move apps to system. Like touchwiz launcher I remove but I replace it with ADW EX. I also move all my Gapps to system/app as well. Some apps seems to just run better from that location to me. I download a ROM and unzip it before flashing and move my apks around. Rezip and flash. Makes life alot easier for me. But I will make the list later today and post it in the general section for future reference. Just woke up so it'll be a minute.

Here is the list
