Besides TiB, Autostarts does not work for me with v0.5 on latest CM nightly 9 (users with stock CM kernel report both apps working well on nightly 9)

EDIT: Flashed CM nightly 9 without flashing ShadowKernel v0.5, and both TiB and Autostarts are working.

Charging Phone issue with this kernel

OK,

Have installed and reinstalled the MTD Kernel (v.0.2) and am encountering a problem when I plug the charger in while the phone is powered off. The battery icon stays lit and the "animation" that should be underneath it does not work, nor does the screen dim, or the red led illuminate, during the charging process.

About two weeks ago, I encountered the same problem and thought it might be the AOSP mod I had added (to Toad's CleanGB) so I emailed in his forum...He kindly responded, I reinstalled his rom, which, of course, overwrote the mod as well as .01 version of the shadow kernel.

Now the problem is back and I have reproduced it.

Anyone else seeing this? Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffro18:
Yes sir, same deal here on tw-mtd-v0.2. Light does not turn on and just sits at loading of animation with the screen on. I rarely turn my phone off, so not a deal breaker for me.

The module should be built in so you don't need to load it. Are you having trouble getting something to work? I've tested it with the stock vpn connection and cifs manager with no problems.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ragnsep:
I've tried to open cifs manager and manage my samba shares, but the module will not load, nor show as loaded under the modules pop up in help/about area of cifs manager. Again I'm not sure of how the kernel works, but there is no cifs.ko file in lib/modules of the rom.

EDIT: I am a dumb dumb. The settings in cifs manager were incorrect and hence was giving me some problems. Thanks for the support on my own mistake.

Which kernel version and rom are you using?

My CM kernel is forked from the stock kernel. I only added voodoo color, overclocking and the built-in TUN, CIFS, FUSE, & TCPMSS modules. I'm not sure that would cause any additional wakelocks you wouldn't experience on the stock CM kernel, but I will see what I can find out.

Sorry, I meant to report this before, but since TW-MTD-v0.2 I have been getting the non optimized su permissions notice in titanium backup. I just set it to ignore in preferences for now. This is still present in v0.3. It looks like toadlife posted a fix in his clean gb mtd thread. Phone off charging works again for me on v0.3. I just enabled 600 setting again. Too soon to know if it changed much. Thanks again for your work.

Does this have the stock samsung boot screen before anim?

This looks to have everything I've been looking for without "too many changes". Can't wait for overclock. Ideally would like to see stable 1200 and 1400 steps. I don't really have use for any others.
[Epic 4G Android Development] elevans:
Great work! I love the voodoo color. Everything seems snappy even without overclocking. Too early for me to judge on battery life, but it seems good so far.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
You mean just the samsung logo? yes, that shows up before the bootanimation kicks in.

This has the stock sprint animation disabled, so unless you have your own custom bootanimation.zip in /system/media, you should see the default ANDROID logo animation.
[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
I know you like simplicity from experience but some of these changes and added functions is what keeps the kernel and phone running cooler, and saves the CPU, etc... i mean all the extra features also help stabilize the phone when performing such programs and etc...

I mean all the added accessories that are added to the kernel we don't even see unless we use that feature, when most don't. but there for us who do. Im sure eventually all these kernels are going to end up 99% the same barely any differences.
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
Strange thing just happened.. I received a call, the phone started to vibrate like I had a call. I pulled it out of my pocket to answer and the screen wouldn't turn on. It just kept vibrating like i had a call.

It required a battery pull. Hmmmmmmmm?

Disclamer is this was not a fresh install, I installed over Samurai 2.0.8.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SpicyBurrito:

[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Yes, you can flash from CWM5, and if your ROM supports it, you can reboot straight to CWM Recovery. If you mean some other type of compatibility, please explain.

***Off Topic Rant***

How about, first, you learn to:

1) respect community members a bit more

2) keep ur comments to yourself, unless they are positive (i.e constructive criticism)

3) learn to NOT double post

And...

4) Plz do learn to build your own crazy kernels so you may melt your phone away till your hearts content, that way you won't have to call everyone "ninnies" and "nazis" just because our kernel Devs sometimes set OC and hertz caps that you dnt agree with. Most of us aren't as "daring" as you ^__^

***On Topic***

@bbelos:

I've been running your Shadow kernel since last night. Here is my experiece with it so far

1) surprisingly smooth

2) no reboots so far (I had about 2 everyday using Samurai)

3) Voodoo Color has made me love my SAMOLED screen even more!

4) I've roughly had about the same battery life so far compared to Samurai kernel

5) Phone temperature has been normal, even with my current Voodoo Color settings.

6) Overall kernel has been very stable, nothing out of the ordinary has occured so far

Implementing some OC steps for the kernel would be nice to add later on as an update. Some basic 1.1 and 1.2ghz steps would make a lot of users happy :) although, I feel a 1.3ghz+ kernel will be asked for eventually, we have some power users who really like to push their devices

Overall, nice work with this kernel!

I'll continue to test the kernel and report back should anything arise. Looking forward to a possible update as well :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Jmax0420:

[Epic 4G Android Development] Blankrubber:
I did what you're doing. Tried it on Samurai and the stock CM7 kernel. It seems to me that while this particular wakelock, mmc_delayed_work, is a kernel wakelock, I found one interesting correlation...

mmc_delayed_work seems to be directly related to the number of apps installed or the number of apps running in the background / syncing / updating regularly. On a clean install, mmc_delayed_work after about 15 hours of run-time would be 30 minutes to an hour. After installing all my usual apps, rebooting, and testing out again, I got 1-2 hours of mmc_delayed_work in my second 15 hours of testing. This was done on both Samurai and the stock CM7 kernel, and I found roughly the same wakelock time for mmc_delayed_work.

I don't know what this particular wakelock is, but it seems to be gaining attention. Maybe someone who knows more about these things can look through the code to see what's up.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnnyEpic:
Im on different kernel and rom and also am getting the SU change msg to. Point being, it may not be the kernel...??

A Crispy Clean, Legendary, Samurai. That is all.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Adam_v1:
I'm not sure what this wakelock is either but I have seen it ever since I flashed my first GB ROM and have wondered about it. I did it on ACS ICS 4.0 and above, MarcusantROMv1 and does it on SleeperROM as well and has done it with every kernel I have tried as well (Shadow, Samurai, Nubernel, Clean Kernel).

I just kinda chalked this up to being a GB thing or Better Battery Stats showing me stuff that I never saw on Froyo. While it confused me and I kept a eye on it for a while I'm getting the best battery life I ever have had on this phone since switching to Shadow Kernel + SleeperROM so I really can't complain.

Overall time awake vs time with the screen on seems slightly better than Foryo was with my normal load of apps giving me 7-10% more time awake than screen on over a normal work day, Froyo was normally in the 9-14% over screen on time range with the same apps polling data and such.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blankrubber:
Very good points, I DID see my mmc_delayed_work skyrocket and flashing a few versions of CM7 and others without wiping data first, so that (corrupt data?) MAY be something that causes it. I've been getting PHENOMENAL battery life with CM7, but looking at the stock battery graph, every so often I see my phone awake for an abnormal amount of time while the screen was off. For 30 minutes to hours sometimes. Every time I can go into betterbatterystats and see that mmc_delayed_work has gone up by about that same amount.

So, it may be the addition of apps causing it, which you hinted at. If so, I'm confused why it's considered a kernel wakelock. Maybe these apps are calling the function from the kernel and that's exactly what it gets logged as. Perhaps that's bad coding on the app makers' sides, because reading up on mmc_delayed_work the little I've found suggests that it gets "locked" somehow and in essense doesn't get "turned off."

I dunno... still kind of wish I coud look through the code or a log to see what's causing it, but I don't know enough for that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Will the latest kernel work on CM7 nightly 12? I hear the 4G toggle is fixed. So far this is the only kernel that allows Titanium batch restores.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
I believe it should work. Someone correct me if i'm wrong. Last one I tested on was 10, but nothing significant to the kernel has changed since then. I will download and test 12 now.

EDIT: Just tested. No problems that I can tell. Wifi, WiMAX, titanium batch install.. all fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Man, you are the best! Thanks. Now I can throw 12 on when I get home and have a 4G toggle again +Shadowkernel! I am a happy camper!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Adam_v1:
I thought that corrupted data might have something to do with it but I have done clean installs (Odin back to EC05 with repartition checked, Odin CWM, wipe SD card with windows and CWM, upgrade modem, flash ROM) and the mmc_delayed_work persisted. I even tried using my phone with no SD card right after flashing a ROM and not installing a single app (but logging into my google accounts I believe) and that wakelock still showed up.

I only tested it for maybe 2 hours of it mostly idling on my desk with no SD card but the fact that mmc_delayed_work still showed up and was the top wakelock my a large margin still makes me think it is not SD related at all.

The reason I did such a thorough wipe of the phone and SD card was for a while I did use a Samurai kernel that had some known issues with data corruption.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blankrubber:
Interesting. I was also thinking somehow mmc_delayed_work was related to the SD card, maybe apps that were moved over to it. Do we know what mmc stands for? I was thinking multi-media card before you suggested it likely isn't related to the SD card.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Adam_v1:
Yeah, the (very slight amount of) info I could dig up on google pointed to it being the SD card with the assumption that MMC did stand for Multi-Media Card but it seems it's not so. It could be general IO to internal memory thats getting counted as well as SD IO, I have not tested to see if installing apps to the SD card makes it worse a I have all my apps installed to internal memory anyways.
