That was fast but thanks bbelos.just flashed the nightly and was sad at how horrible my wallpaper looks without the colors being corrected.

Sent from my Epic, thanks to the letters X, D, &A.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
What changed in your kernel? Do you really have to change the kernel every few nightlies?
[Epic 4G Android Development] zanderman112:
He does if the EPICMTD team modifies the stock cm kernel.

Sent from something with a Ｋモ尺れモㄥ.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Effsi:
Thanks for the update.

I am guessing when the cm team makes kernel changes the other kernel devs would want to put the same changes in their builds too, and that some of nightlys can contain such drastic changes that if the kernel isn't also updated with stock kernel then things won't work right.

And if the updates are coming too fast you can always skip one or two.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bryanfritz1:
anyone move from samauri to this on miui.us official with no issues?

sent from the other woman
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Correct. I skipped a couple because the kernel changes weren't that significant. Tonight they added a fix to help correct video recording issues. If you don't use video recording, then you should be ok to keep using v0.6.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bryanfritz1:
I think version 7 boinks wifi for official miui. I tried a few different ways and always got a wifi error in settings. But as soon as I flashed bushido7 for miui(not official from eb but posted in his thread) wifi is back. Any suggestions, I thought about v2 but I'm not on rc or before I'm on official.

[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Thanks for checking. I was going to flash miui today to check for myself. So for the time being, MIUI users should stick with v0.6. I will update the OP.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
I should have known that...feel stoopid now...LOL!

Of course any significant kernel changes would need to be implemented.

Anyone having any issues with wifi using this rom..? I may be wrong it might not be from this kernel but this is what happened to me

I was on cm7

I flashed this kernel

I turned on wifi... phone froze, rebooted

When it boot up I tried again

Turned on wifi.. phone froze, rebooted

So I flashed a different cm7 kernel and wifi worked fine and was working fine b4 I flashed this kernel (I used wifi to download it)

Anyway today I flashed revival v3

Flashed the mtd tw kernel

Turned on wifi.... wifi connected.. no freezing or reboots but web page wouldn't open. So I used 4g

A little bit later I decided to try wifi again so I turned it on then my phone froze and rebooted again

So I think it may b from this kernel..

Idk if this issue was discussed already I looked around and didn't see anything so I'm sorry if I'm bringing up something that's already being worked on
[Epic 4G Android Development] bryanfritz1:
I've been super happy with version 6 on miui, however I did notice a bug with video recorder. It kinda locked up, however I was able to fc. Then apon playback I noticed, glitches throughout the video. I thought it might have to do with my uv's. Anyone know if video camera uses a specific frequency?

I flashed this on miui rom and under about it keeps saying 0.5 version instead of 0.6 even though I flashed the latest.

Sent from my Samsung Epic.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Don't worry, that's expected. v0.6 only had an updated initramfs which didn't need the kernel to be recompiled with an updated version number. I realized that after I posted the download file. As long as you have the v0.6 zip, you do have the right version.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bryanfritz1:
Anyone else experiencing the video recording glitchiness on miui, I mentioned a few posts back?

sent from the other woman
[Epic 4G Android Development] That Future:
Yeah I've had problems with video recording and playback my self and I'm convinced it's not the Kernel but the actual MIUI ROM its self. Yes it's "official" now but they (developers) have to wait on more updates from the "fascinate" phone to further production and stability. It's an awesome ROM just too many little bugs and glitches right now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sonarchist:
Hey bblos!

just taking a moment here to let you know how much I enjoy your work......the stability, the precision, your attention to your users................all of it! Thank you so much!
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
Random question that I've wanted to ask for a while. What's with all the periods and extended elipeses? Why not just use a single period and go from there? Or maybe just three? Not that it really bothers me, I've just seen it on literally everyone post of yours I've seen.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
I appreciate the kind words. And don't worry, I do have other features I'm working on even when things seem quiet. :) Just don't want to get anyone's hopes up by keeping a todo list.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lost_:
Yeah, I'm pretty sure one feature in the next CM release would *sound* great for everyone - literally. But no rush, don't dock it out too soon if you got other things lined up :)

ShadowKernel-CM-MTD-v0.8+OC/UV w/ Dock Audio

Big news for CM7 users. Here is the new kernel updated for nightly 21, but more importantly now has working support for dock audio. Confirmed to work with the Galaxy Dock Sound Redirector app. The dock audio code is adapted from code by the app creator, xcaliburinhand. Big thanks to lost_ for testing and donating a desk dock (although I actually got it working before the dock arrived :p). This also includes the cpu frequency table fixes I applied to the TW kernels last week. Give it a try. :)

[Epic 4G Android Development] murso74:
do you have to use the samsung dock app for this to work or will it work with the google car dock?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
i only have access to the samsung desk dock. I believe lost_ tested it with a car dock (i assume it's the samsung one). if you have something else, then I will await your results. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] lost_:
The clock or car dock app doesn't do anything about the sound. I just takes over the home button and show those shortcut buttons for easier navigation. It's the kernel code and xcaliburinhand's Galaxy Dock Sound Redirector app that will take care of sound path.

If you connect a headphone straight to the dock, you'll need at least a headphone amp or it won't sound big enough (TW kernel is like this too) -- just in case someone is doing that. Connected to a car headunit, it sounds great. I actually use the home dock in the car. It sits on the console area better. Llama automatically starts and stops my music app.

Nice work. It only took two tries for bbelos to get this working . Xcaliburinhand's github must have been a good start but it takes a good pair eyes to go through them and patch it in the right place.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zeinzu:
Would just like to throw it out there that the video recording glitches are definitely not caused by the kernel. It's definitely an issue with cm7 and MIUI. More and more people are experiencing it I've noticed and the devs started to publicly look into it but I don't know if they went anywhere with it as I've heard nothing back about it. I may send one of them a pm just to see if anything from the logs I've sent them have led to any discovers about the issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ajf64:
Not really true I'm useing cm7 nightly 22 and since 15 I have had no issues with video play back or recording hd or sd
[Epic 4G Android Development] murso74:
you misunderstand. the samsung car home app has a button that redirects the sound to the phono port on the dock. the google car home app does not have that

Just wondering if the new cm7 nightly kernel is supposed to work with voodoo sound because it does.

I loaded the sound drivers in voodoo control plus and voodoo sound goodness :)

Thanks for the awesome kernel
[Epic 4G Android Development] sonarchist:
Haha........stilesja: you're awesome lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] notmyepic:
The main problem I had with CM7, from the beginning, was the fact that my bluetooth headsets would not work with my Samsung car dock. I have a 40 mile commute to work each day and use the dock constantly along with Bluetooth.

I am now running CM7 nightly 22, Shadow v08 kernel and Redirector app and my Bluetooth

works perfectly

. I must also add that I delete the Car dock app (just don't like it)

I cannot think you and xcaliburinhand enough for resolving this issue.

ShadowKernel-CM-MTD-v0.8+OC/UV

Thank you for this. I've been anxiously awaiting someone to figure out dock audio in a CM7 kernel. You are the first, of a very talented group of developers, to get it done. That is awesome.

This is my first experience with Voodoo Color and overclocking/undervolting options. At first I thought the colors were too saturated but it's becoming more natural to me. Thank you for the link to the thread about voodoo color settings, I tried a couple different options, from that thread and this one, but came back to your defaults. It would be nice if someone with a calibration tool, such as a Spyder, could report the correct profile for the Super AMOLED display. It would also be helpful to know where I can find optimal undervolting profiles for the Epic. I know if differs from device to device but there's probably a good baseline out there somewhere.

Last and least, I have a minor problem to report. I'm running CM7, nightly 20. When using auto brightness, and the screen is adjusted to it's lowest brightness, the screen goes to a dark grey. It's difficult to describe, but it can be simulated by turning all the color multipliers to 0 in Voodoo Control. I do use custom auto backlight settings. [attached]

Also when auto brightness is disabled and brightness is set low, the screen goes green a few seconds before turning off.

Again, thank you. I appreciate this greatly.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Everybody's phone is different and react differently to voodoo color. That is not a bug, you will have to adjust voodoo color, probably gamma settings, to make it acceptable to you at that brightness.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
There was a user, tbob18, early on in the thread who was doing some extensive calibration testing. I believe he even had a Spyder. He was able to get certain things close, but was never able to get the colors set perfectly. That could either be due to the nature of the screen, or the voodoo color code not being perfect (I'll admit that I don't believe it's perfect, but it works :p). You might pm tbob18 and speak with him about his experiences.

I'll have to investigate the dark grey you speak of, using your attached settings. But I can tell you that I'm sure the green tint when the screen dims is due to the custom settings. You should be able to fix that by increasing the gamma values in the voodoo control app. You can test with the alt or punchy settings, and then lower back down as far as you can without getting the green.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zeinzu:
Just cause you don't have the issue doesn't mean "it's not true". Enough people have reported the problem that it's recognized as a legitimate bug with cm7 and MIUI. I never said "everyone" is experiencing it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lost_:
Hmmm, you are now being clearer than your previous post :). The explanation is pretty clear. The audio path gets redirected by xcaliburinhand's app, provided the kernel has the path available. Anyway, why not just try it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rprockey:
Thank you both for the tips. Indeed the green tint before screen off was easily resolved by notching up RGB gamma settings by +7 from default. Well, only green needed to be that high (-27) to resolve the problem, but I adjusted the others as well to keep the balance.

I did load the default auto brightness levels so see if that would resolve both problems. It didn't resolve the green tint problem without the gamma adjustment, but it did resolve the grey tint problem. Now here's the interesting part. I tried to reset my settings, from my previous attachment and the screen brightness of 1 is not accepted; 10 is the lowest value it accepts. Now with my screen at the lowest value, 10, I do not have the grey tint. My phone was in some weird state, and that auto brightness problem I reported is not likely to be a problem for anyone else.

Now that I have these settings figured out, I have deeper blacks, brighter color, dock audio, overclocking/undervolting options and all the benefits of CyanogenMod. Absolutely wonderful. Thanks again.

Voltage Control -

I flashed the most recent nightly (#23) and the most recent Shadow Kernal(v.08)- after flashing, I looked at Voltage Control and noticed that I only had the following Voltage Settings active - 100mhz, 200mhz, 400mhz, 800mhz, 1000mhz - nearly half of the usual settings - 300, 500, 600, 900 were all disabled.

I have not read every post in this thread but I did go back a bit and didn't see any other refference to this - I also don't recall this happening when I used different versions of this kernal previously - is this a fluke or is it supposed to work this way?

IN all honesty, I am a bit of noobie about this kind of thing - I have occassionally played with undervolting to try to extend battery life - but this is the first time I have seen almost half of the avaialble voltage settings disabled -

Let me know if this is normal or possibly the result of a bad flash ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
I haven't messed with OC/UV settings in CM7 yet, but from previous ROMs, I do remember people saying they were having issues with the 900 step for sure, and some with the 600 step. I disabled them as well, but maybe the dev did it by default as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
First of all, there has never been a 300 or 500MHz step, but you are correct that 600 and 900 are disabled by default in the CM kernel. This results in the same default enabled frequencies that you get with the stock kernel. I have done it this way in an attempt to maintain as close to the stock experience while allowing you to go further if you choose. Some people don't want to mess with cpu settings. I have had it like this for at least a few versions now, if not all of them, i'd have to back and look. The early CM kernels still might have had 600 and 900 enabled. Either way, you have not had a bad flash.

On another note, I did apply some fixes to the frequency tables in v0.8. So unless I hear otherwise, 600 should no longer be buggy and is safe to enable.
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
Thank you THANK you!! THANK YOU!!!!!!

You have no idea how happy this makes me! You just made my weekend!!

After waiting for SOO LONG to have a stable phone, that I can make my media hub (Google music/sirius/slacker) my dreams have become reality!!

It wasn't that I couldn't do this stock........but the stock roms crashed, were slow and ugly... here's what you helped me to do!!!

Got anything on your amazon wishlist ?? I'd love to buy you a present!

There is one remaining problem..

the sound... it seems that when it goes through the dock, there's no bass!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] mocsab:
THANKS - of course you are correct, I didn't look closely enough at the actual voltage settings - just assumed that 300 and 500 were possible settings- I appreciate the information - 600 and 900 are both disabled -(I do a pretty good job of making myself look stupid) I didn't realize they were the same settings as the Default kernel - I appreciate the information - In any event, thank you for being kind and not making me feel like a bigger idiot than I already do - :-)

I so can't wait to upgrade to all the 2.3.6 goodness that is to come. Had to say.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
I'll look at the code some more and keep my eyes open for anything that might increase the bass for the dock. I'm still new to using a dock myself, but maybe another user has some other suggestions.
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
Thanks, as I've searched for the issue, it appears it's just a function of the dock. I swear in another ROM/Kernal six months ago it worked just fine........the problem was the ROM had issues and I couldn't use it daily. I appreciate your work on this!
[Epic 4G Android Development] dzl:
awesome that the audio out is very close to being perfect. really the only thing the dock is good for.

Just updated to CM7 Nightly 24 to check out the ICS animations. Neat trick but meh. I loaded ShadowKernel-CM-MTD-v0.8+OC/UV over this build and there are no problems.

Is it correct to assume that ShadowKernel-CM-MTD-v0.8+OC/UV will work with all good CyanogenMod 7 nightly builds (there have been a few bad builds) for the Epic unless they've updated the prebuilt kernel?

i wanted to report that i was getting random reboots here. not sure that it is the shadowkernel causing it, but i am using it and with CM7 and didnt wanna clog that thread up anymore.. ^_^

i was using nightly 24 and the .9 version of the cmmtd kernel

anyway, all i did was add a metamorph theme to my setup,(ive done it plenty of times, and it's always worked fine and not caused reboots) and now everytime the screen is off for more than 5 mins it will reboot.

happens systematically almost. i could predict when they would occur. anyway, im using this as an excuse to odin back to ec05 and grab the el30 modem..

Bbelos! any plans to dump ei22 in favor of el30?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Hmm.. well, I've been running nightly 24 with kernel v0.9 since last night and haven't had any reboots or anything else.

Loving the new version, still seems to be the fastest kernel around. My Car Dock finally works! Great work bbelos! :)

Unfortunately that is just how the dock works, the USB output is not amplified.

It sounds like your receiver needs a powered output, if you use the dock with headphones you'll get the same effect because there is not enough power. A headphone amp of some sort may fix your problem. (I notice very little difference between the dock and 3.5mm straight from the phone using my Pioneer MVH-P8200BT).
