not sure if this is suppose to happen but when i flashed Lighting Zap VB, on my Vahalla black edition Final, it changed the mod version to cyanogenMod-7.1 hybrid
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Yep... It's suppose to... It' doesn't affect the operation of anything. Just changes what is displayed in the about phone section...

That's not necessarily true. I change things all the time to tweak and test. Sometimes it's an epic fail, other times it a huge sucess, i.e. enabling stagefright stuff: epic failure, changing hsxpa from 2 to 1: better signal for my area (being that I live in the stix of Louisiana and I am on AT&T). But there are some parts, you just DON'T want to change unless you REALLY know what you are doing (anything before #additional build properties section.)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] JuLes' MostWanted:
oh really??

i recommend not changing those other codes for who are not familiar with the build. prop

Hi Thomas

Great work. Flawlessly running.

I have a few questions if you don't mind:

1. First boot after applying v4.1 took me 2 minutes instead of 15 seconds, will it be the same for all future boots or it's one time event ? (Mostly because of dalvik & cache cleaning).

2. I use bhundven beta 3.1 sms kj6 kernel, which requires system r/w. On adrenaline shot v12 i added system mount on systemctl init.d. Here I noticed an init.d script called system apps rw. I think it mounts all system and fixes permissions for all sys apps. So i haven't changed anything. Am I correct? Anyone here is working with this kernel & zap lightening tweak ?

3. If I would like to include lightening zap in the next version of HebrewValhalla ROM (with a big credit to you) will that be OK?

Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
The longer boot time is only on the first start up, after that, all reboots will be faster because it's rebuilding the delvik and cache as well as installing the tweaks, hence why the OP says to leave phone alone for 10 minutes. Yes it does mount system and rootfs as rw (going to update that in this weekends update to only mount /system as rw and add it to sysctl, tends to be more reliable that way). I believe everyone is using that kernel now since it's so bad ass... Lol... I have no problem with you or anyone else using Lightning Zap in their roms...

Update NOT coming soon

I had plans on finalizing v4 this weekend. I had it built and compiled this afternoon, but when I flash it, there were some pretty bad results. The current version, v4.1, is stable so no fear of evil doings. I am pretty exhausted already and have decided to put it down for a while since I altered so many values at once and do not have the energy to look for it (I'm getting tired of flashing back to stock and building back up). Keep enjoy, and I will have the final up soon...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] itzik2sh:
Any plans to merge Adrenaline shot v14 on next version?

Sent from me
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Yes, I was actually going to start on that today. A good night sleep fully regenerated me. So I think I will finalize v4, and start on v4 plus (data2ext partitioning).
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
UPDATE TO v4.3 FINAL!!!!!!!!!!

The FINAL v4.3(for ALL ROMs) and v4.3 VB(for Vahalla Black Final ONLY) are up.

Read the entire OP and follow the instructions word for word!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Warrenforfree:

I really dont care about quadrant scores but i ran three times and the first was 2404 the second was 2883 and the third is 2806.. very very smoooooth
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Awesome! Glad you like it. I personally like to run the benchmark test 3 times then average the scores. I have hit 3000+ by adjusting the governor settings, Not OC'd.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Thomas

How are you adjusting the governor? If I try anything but ondemand phone lags like crazy. I'm on Adrenalin v14 not Lightning. Might try it today. This does have a wipe script correct?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Yes it does have a wipe script. Refer to the OP on adjusting the governor settings. Keep in mind those settings are for Lightning Zap only.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Thanks. Missed that in the OP. Nice of you to put that together.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mysticfrog:
Thomas i well add this when i flagged this, this morning i had full battery it's 420 (lol) right now.. I've pretty much have been using this most of the day i flashed it at 830am and im at 75% which for me and my experiences is pretty damn good.. Im gonna start calling you houdini... Nice man...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Hehehehe... Glad you have such great results! Under very light use (almost never happens unless I'm on vacation) I have been know to get 4 days of battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
UPDATED

Update to v4.4

remember VB is for Vahalla Black ONLY!

Read OP/Change log for details... enjoy! Works even better now!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mysticfrog:
Awwww **** im on this shizz houdini... I'll play around with it and keep you posted..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Awesome! Enjoy man...lol
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Yes it does have a wipe script. As for the governor settings, refer to the OP, keep in mind, those are ONLY for Lightning Zap. dsexton uses a different script for governor settings.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mysticfrog:
alright first score was 2461 second score was 2819 and third and final score is DAMN 2977 and i didnt even have tegrak settings on... the phone literally jumped off my lap and ran down the hallway!!! i really dont know what that test is all about but my phone has the bragging rites.. it is pretty snappy to say the least..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Better put it on a leash then... hehehe...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mysticfrog:
Really though.. After my first initial charge for the battery.. Mind you that i did have very light use today.. But off charger at six am to right now im at 72 percent.. MAJOR change as we all know with this battery.. So kudos to youThomas. And my phone hasn't done anything quirky thus far.. Awesome
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
Here I go once again!!! I just did everything followed all thomas.raines guidelines to remove gremlins, ran into a hiccup where couldn't mount sd but fixed it, now just waiting on the 10 minutes for the tweak after flashing it! I cannot wait to see battery and performance results in the morning. Just like to thank everyone including thomas.raines of course, fbis251, juels, lumis30, RAVER3EX and I know a few more but I forget GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU GUYS FOR HELPING ME!!!

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
I think this is on my own end fault but when I do quads I barely get 2000 did they update quadrant standard? Cause I run these the CPU 8 parts take so long.

Edit this is what I'm getting reboots and battery draining quickly even though when display is off, when I was on heimdall battery barely went down when display is off, I did what was suggested to clear gremlins followed all the steps why is this happening?

I got black final and latest lightning zap

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
You missed a step if you followed me Gremlins thing. Flash KG4, boot back to dl mode, flashed KJ1 + voodoo (or an alike kernel), let phone boot and sit for 10 minutes AFTER it has booted fully, boot back into recovery and DO A DATA/FACTORY RESET (most commonly missed step), flash VH Black, boot phone fully and let sit for at least 10 minutes, boot back into recovery and flash LZ...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
No I did boot back into download mode the one I flashed was

stock+Voodoo-T959VKG4.tar

I am guessing I got the wrong one. but I did do the data/factory reset then I flashed VH black, and I did wait 10 mins between, but I guess this is my fault again I FLASHED THE WRONG KERNEL O M G!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
That should have worked... Did you try downloading my updated gremlins package? it has a reliable PIT file so you can reinstall everything now... Try that. The link is in the OP to get to the post that has the instructions and dl link...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
ya I did download the pit file remember you told me, the pit file is

1.70 kb

sgs4g.pit

or did you update it again?

EDIT: also when I did odin I put all the 4 file parts all together at once and clicked start not unlike where in the gb4 starter pack its 2 at a time then another 2.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
It seems like you did it right. IDK why it didn't work. You reformatted the SDcard, but did you have your info backed up and then reinstalled it? If so, try deleting everything on it except like your pics and music, then reformat it. If that doesn't work, try running the Odin stuff again. Then, when you do your restore, only restore the apps only, no data.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
I reformatted my sd card after I installed the kernel because then I found out it wouldn't mount, and after that point I did not restore anything back. I guess maybe I'll try formatting my sd card first then try odin again or because I got a final tomorrow I'll just let phone battery discharge and charge all the way and see how it goes from there.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Try using the phone to reformat it. Then wait and see how that works out. Then redo odin stuff...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
Very smooth!!!

Thats without oc'ing

3067 oc @ 1.3
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
update to quadrant 2.0!! and redo and show me im getting like 2000 average but i got problems with battery so i think its still gremlins but i wanna compare mine with someone with 2.0
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
on a low throttle I just averaged 2251 (70,70,1,1) Bumped it up to high gear (45,45,0,0) and averaged 3371 with 5 apps running in the background.

Run your quad (benchmark tests) at least 3 times and take an average... They get better the more you do them... I still don't know why you have battery problems... Try Odining again...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
New updated quadrant....

No oc-2015

oc'd 1.3 - 2463
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
How many times did you run it?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
3times and it is slow slow...not liking the new update
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
2 things...

1 Possible gremlins? Which seems to be a hot topic for many right now

2 Run logcat and send it to me. Consider reflashing LZ...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
About what I get but atleast your battery is fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
I dont buy into what the new quad update says lol.....my phone is running very fast and smooth....i dont need a silly app to tell me that....if i run the older version of quadrant....im in the mid 3k.....im not not concerned with an update
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] QUIETLYloud:
If it's quadrant standard there is something wrong with the app...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
Yup I think my phone is lightning fast too just battery issues I brought the cable to school so maybe ill clear gremlins again after class.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
My phone has never run this smooth until i "Zapped" it......i dont feel ive got gremlins nor do i feel theres anything wrong with your Zap....other than i wish it could zap my data throttle problem lol.

I highly suspect the latest update to quadrant is the "gremlin".
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
What kind of battery life you getting? I'm already down 12% from full charge and it's been like almost 2 hours.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ipaq_101:
I tried Thomas' guide on removing gremlins and it works pretty damn well. I would suggest it for anyone who has random reboots and performance issues in general. Its a pain but it yields rewards of unspeakable value....lol

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Ya know, I was thinking about this earlier. Is it possible you got a bum battery? Call Tmo up and tell them that the battery won't hold a good charge and you need a new one. They should send you a new one out with no problem. Or go buy one from the store, but they are on the pricey side in my opinion.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Usually with tmo you have to call them.

On a different note. I need you to test something for me. I made an Odin 1-Click for gremlin removal. Could you please test it, and let me know how it works? Be warned, it might soft-brick your phone.

It has KG4 files, PIT, and KJ1 kernel (just one flash to get you back to stock and remove those pesky gremlins!).
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
give it to me doctor!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Thanks man! I will PM you the link when I am done uploading... It's running real slow today, so I should have it in about an hour...

In the meantime, do me, and probably yourself, a big favor. Unplug your phone (if plugged in), remove the battery and place it on the table, hold the power button for about 30 seconds, and then place the phone on the table next to the battery. After about 15 minutes, put the battery back in the phone, but DO NOT boot it up, instead, wait another 10 minutes and start the phone then. Let's see how your battery works after that.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
Ok I am doing that right now thank you man!! I will update you!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
I just PM'd the link to you...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
I tried the battery method and now battery not going down when display off let me see how it is when I use phone for a bit first
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Ok. Just out of curiosity, did it delete all your stored texts and/or call logs?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
No everything is still here ill take a picture of the battery graph in a few hours and show you the results and if you can tell me if that is normal or not be great.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Ok. Did you download/install the gremlin remover? If not, don't do it. It failed on me on the second run. If you did and it failed, reboot into recovery and flash the kernel in my signature and all will be fine. It won't delete your data...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
ok I was going to in an hour, thanks for the heads up dude.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Got it fixed! We now have a 1 Click (Odin based) Gremlin Remover!

Links will be up in a new thread tomorrow...it's late and I need to restore my phone still...lol
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
If it's odin based what is it? Stock GB and what kernel? Or something else?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Stock KG4 with KJ1 + voodoo kernel, PIT and necessary drivers. It has everything to COMPLETELY restore your phone, i.e. param.lfs, Sbl.bin, factoryfs.rfs, etc
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Sweet. Ever think of using Ravers Official stock. That way it's not based off a leak. Although I've never had any problems with KG4. Just a thought. Thanks for putting that together.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] reddd123:
OK man good to hear will try it soon after its uploaded. Currently 91% - 75% in 3 half hours.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
That's a possibility. KG4 has always worked for me for the gremlins issue, so I choose it. But it was a pain in the butt... Odin KG4, reboot, wait 10 minuts, reboot to recovery, Odin a voodoo kernel, reboot, wait for Linda, wait 10 minutes, reboot, factory reset, install ROM, etc...

No it's boot into dl, flash, let linda do her thing, wait 10 minutes, reboot recovery, data/factory reset, flash custom ROM, restore apps, DONE

EDIT:

Just looked into Ravers KJ6 stock. It doesn't have the param.lfs, data.rfs, or boot.bin. So I don't think it would do a COMPLETEwipe and restore... Will have to talk to him more though, because those files should be the same
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Yeah I know what you mean. Mines usually DL mode, odin Ravers official GB, Odin Honks kernel. Reboot cwm. Flash away. Has always worked for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Everybody has their own thing that works for them. Hell, I might even factory reset this phone with VB final and make a 1-click out of it... Depends on how I feel this weekend... hehehehe...

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nativesmiley:
Did you reconfigure any txt or scripts inside the zip after flash?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Yes i did, refer to OP about getting more from Lightning Zap...

But I also barely used the phone that weekend...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
MIUI ONLY version added

MIUI ONLY version added. I haven't tested it on our SGS4G, but I ran it on my Cappy with no problems. Cappy actually scored a 2500+ NOT OCed... For those with MIUI, please test and report back with issues and logcats... Thanks all!

No real changes. I'm still working on adding tune2fs back into the tweak, and adding data2ext4 and disable journaling (having issues with the flashing script)...

With Raver working on the KJ6 kernel, I asked him to add the support we need for OC. If he is able to acomplish that, we will finally have an OC option! Good news on that, the latest Lightning Zap is already setup for OC. Once the support is available, I will post instructions on how to use it... Have a good week everyone!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Thomas,

Thanks. I'll check it out and let you know. I copied the original initd from the rom incase I want to switch back. Anything else this will change that I might want to copy as well?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Nope... I kust copied the needed files for MIUI to the init.d. But as I checked, I included a few extra files that are already in the ROM. Shouldn't cause any damage though... Will just replace them, but they are the same version, so nothing negative... I removed them to avoid possible conflicts... New link is up, I didn't change the file name for a reason...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Thanks. I'll test later tonight.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Thomas

These tweaks seem to be working fine with miui Rc2. 24 hours in and nothing unusual. As far as speed goes they seem to be about as fast as the ROM without them.

Average Quad w/o was 2950

Average Quad with 2950

That's with no OC.

Battery life does seem to be better. Was getting about 20 hours before these. With these I'm at 24 hours with 21% battery remaining. A far as the phone it's still super smooth and every loads quickly. Thanks for putting these together.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Thanks man. I didn't really change any values with the MIUI release. Just made it for MIUI.

- remount script sometimes won't work if the kernel remounts the partition before boot. (Kernel dependent)

- You perform sqlite optimization twice? Why? :/

sqlite optimization was a complete brain fart on my behalf. Thanks for catching that. Will fix it in my next update.
