Go into Voodoo control and you should be able to set the settings to the stock 2.3 settings. In the RGB mulitpliers part, hit the 'Reset' button, and on the v1 gamma hack, hit the 'Reset to 2.3.3 defaults'. That should return you back to what they were without voodoo color, even though it's technically still present.
[Epic 4G Android Development] saridnour:
i did that already. It's still brown/red. Really fugly. After setting to defaults, I have to reset the gama on red to full off (far left) to get it close to looking normal.

Is anyone else running this with their display brightness set to 0-5%? Can anyone with it looking correct try resetting to 0-5% and see what they see?

The boot animation looking brown/red hued sends up a red flag in general and I have reflashed the kernel a few times. as well as the older v1.01 with the same results.

[Epic 4G Android Development] intulsa:
I run mine at very low brightness settings most of the time at 0. With resetting voodoo it's slightly yellowish. with basic settings I've found in this thread it's fine. But until it was mentioned here I never even noticed the yellow color. I could've done without voodoo color and I wouldn't probably never known it was off. I've never noticed anything reddish/brown even at the lowest brightness settings.
[Epic 4G Android Development] saridnour:
One other thing I have noticed. On boot, the Samsung splash is shown. I see a quick flash (almost a super fast reset) and then the hue is off from that point on.

ShadowKernel-CM-MTD_v0.1+OC/UV

Here is the initial MTD version working for CM7 and MIUI. I've been running it since last night on the CM7 RC0 build without any issues that I can see. Try it out and see how it holds up. Feature list is the same as in the OP, except that the bash install got left out for now. I will add that back in later. I look forward to your feedback. :) To avoid confusion with the BML kernel discussion, please state which kernel version and ROM you are using for any posts.

Download ShadowKernel-CM-MTD_v0.1+OC/UV

A touchwiz version will most likely come later tonight, and non-overclocking versions in the near future.

EDIT: It seems to have the microphone feedback and video recording lockup issues on CM7. I will look into that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ksmullins88:
Look forward to flashing after the feedback is fixed :-)

Actually, iap's kernel has the same issue plus botched gps so looks like I'm flashing this kernel tonight :-)

I installed ShadowKernel 1.04, Legendary ROM 2.1 and slightly undervolted each setting by 25mv and I've been getting great battery life. I purposely left the phone uncharged last night and it went down only 11% in 8 hours (wifi off). It's very similar to what I've been seeing while in use.

I have an LED notification issue where it only blinks if it's plugged in whenever I get a txt, email or voicemail. Anyone else getting this? It may not have to do with the kernel (still running 1.0.3 with no OC and Mostly Stock EI22). Fix suggestions are appreciated!

[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
It has the same settings that are in bml kernel v1.0.4. They may work for you, may not. Same disclaimer as always. But if you have favorite settings from before, please use them if you don't like the defaults.

Sorry, the MTD version numbers might lead to some confusion. I'll sync those up once these new kernels get some testing.

CM7 - High Pitched Whistle

I flashed the new MTD CM version you posted (thank you) and immediatly found improved bench scores - but I also found that a problem that had plagued previous version of CM 7 (I am on the lastest release update pushed out last night) I got a very high pitched whistle when I was typing a text message.

(I deduced that it was because my hand or finger was covering the microphone on the phone while I typed)

This did not happen prior to flashing this kernel - I am making assumptions then that it must be related to the kernel...I have been wrong before...

I know that on previous versions of CM7 this had been a real problem for lots of people - they eventually fixed it - but I don't honestly know waht the cause was or what the fix was -

Now, I only know that it doesnt happen if I use the stock kernel with CM7 - but does when I flash this Kernel -

Thoughts> is this related to the Kernel or something else entirely?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bit1:
Not sure who asked it but I'm running the TW. MTD kernel on CleanGB and yes GPS works fine. Using it on the highway right now

Does the miui cm7 mtd kernel(latest) have the video lockup issue?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
This is kernel related, voodoo sound is conflicting with CM somehow. I'm considering removing voodoo sound from the CM kernel until a fix can be resolved.

The video lockup issue is there, but I will try to fix that tonight.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mocsab:
Thanks - I appreciate your efforts - I really appreciate your taking the effort to convert this kernal for MTD - I can live with and deal with the annoyance of the whistle - by holding my phone in just the right way so I don't cover the mic - which is what I think causes the feed back - something in the kernel must be allowing the mic to be active even when it is not in use - thats my guess anyway -I am probably wrong - I really should just leave it to minds far more brilliant than mine to figure out what and why - and how to fix -

thanks again.

Running smooth on MIUI, but red and blue begin to cut out when the screen brightness is low, leaving everything green. Voodoo couldn't compensate for it.

ShadowKernel-CM-MTD-v0.2+OC/UV

Happy New Year everyone!

Alright, I have redone my CM / MIUI kernel. The video recording is fixed, and Voodoo Sound has been left out for now so there should be no mic feedback. I hope this performs very well, because I have forked the stock CM kernel and re-added my support for:

- Voodoo COLOR

- 3 Button Reboot

- Kexec (untested)

- Overclocking / Undervolting (as per OP), but modified to leave all the new frequencies disabled by default. (Enable with the Voltage Control App)

- Built-in TUN, CIFS, FUSE, & TCPMSS

Let me know if you have any issues. Thanks :)

So bbelos, I love this kernel on cm and on legendary. It just seems more solid than the iap one. I get better battery, better performance, and my keyboard is most responsive on this kernel than on stock and on samurai

Btw I like that you removed voodoo sound from the cm kernel, I like using the stock dsp manager that cm7 supplies. I love voodoo color tho.

Thanks for this awesome kernel.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ksmullins88:
Just wanted to point out that if you flash this kernel on top of the update 4 CM7 nightly it will cause wifi to error out... replicated this issue thrice.

also tried the iap kernel and it does it as well, but i flashed it over top this one.. so might need looking into.

have to go back to stock kernel sadly =/

Quick question for you Shadow users. With smartassv2 selected for your governor, does your frequency ever drop below 600mhz?

Thanks. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] ksmullins88:
Mine does. That's the only governor I use.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ksmullins88:
Thanks bbelos. Ill flash in a min to test wifi and smartassv2 for konane

Both working well. Thanks again for this kernel..
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
And it does so with screen on and off?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
I don't know which kernel version you are using, but a couple people in the past have mentioned they believe the 600MHz step to be buggy (which is why I disabled it by default in my latest CM kernels). If you are having troubles maybe try disabling the 600MHz step. I will most likely be also disabling it by default in future releases of the other kernels.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ksmullins88:
Ya afaik. No problems with my phone sleeping. May I ask why?
[Epic 4G Android Development] zman519:
I dont see it drop below 600 with the screen ON.
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
I'm not using your kernel, but my own. My kernel is similar to yours, so user data here makes for good statistics.

Sleep problems never came up. Also see above.

Noted, thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Adam_v1:
From what I have seen SmartassV2 seems to keep 600 as the minimum with the screen on, if you disable the 600MHz step it will use 800MHz instead. With the screen off it will use the lower steppings just fine as needed and sleeps fine as well.

Beyond that it acts much much like Conservative does in how it picks its steps but with a much lower processor use threshold and lower threshold times so it will scale up very fast when needed keeping things smooth.

From what testing I have done with InteractiveX as well it performs much like Ondemand does except it will use the 100MHz step with the screen on and seems to use higher steppings a bit less so it should give better battery life however I found it less stable on my phone. It might just be because my undervolting is too extreme for the very quick frequency changes it likes to do but SmartassV2 seems to be rock solid for me so I'm perfectly happy with it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffro18:
Same here, does not drop below 600 with the screen on. It hits deep sleep quickly with the screen off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
I can confirm that the CM ShadowKernel v0.3 is the one to use with MIUI RC0.5 if you want working wifi. I have updated my release post and the OP to reflect this.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ksmullins88:
Mine seems to like 400 mhz but it drops lower and shoots up to 800 instantly when I touch anything lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] Darkk69:
Ditto with me on the WiFi issues. Using ShadowKernal 1.0.3 non-OC. I'd imagine 1.0.4 will do the same thing. I am using the latest version of SleeperROM with this kernal.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Zeinzu:
All of you talking about where the frequencies are staying on smartassv2 with screen on, that's exactly how that govenor was built to function. It sits at whatever it considers middle frequency when the screen is on and throttles up. When screen is off it sits at the lowest frequency and will throttle to middle if anything runs background while the screen is off.

[Epic 4G Android Development] tdwp16:
could you get rid of the voodoo color on the cm7 miui kernel it makes the screen randomly turn inverted green and black...
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
This seems to have something to do with how MIUI handles the screen dimming. The same default voodoo color settings on CM7 do not cause the green. One fix is to raise the gamma values with the Voodoo Control app. Using the alt settings (-14, -17, -18) fixes it for me, although I have not determined the actual breaking point. Your values may vary.
