The strange thing 'that the previous kernel works ..

great job thanks for the kernel
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
sorry guy.... I honestly woke up on the wrong side of bed... Hope all questions are answered in the OP now.

~Eugene
[Nexus S Android Development] estate:
:) sometime happen...

tnx for your work, i like your kernel! :D
[Nexus S Android Development] Krishath:
Thanks for your clarifications and sorry, I didn't read very well the first post.
[Nexus S Android Development] uansari1:
Works great on Peter Alfonso's stockish ROM. Very good performance and battery life.
[Nexus S Android Development] gotjazz:
for people who are worried about the battery life-span you might add to the OP that it the 100% thing is only for looks and that actually charging to the last drop wouldn't be healthy.

Also: looking forward to trying the kernel. been hearing great things :)
[Nexus S Android Development] Zorrich:
Getting radio dumps after installing this kernel.

Probably has something to do with me having a 9020A model which isn't officially supported by Google yet.

I'm running the KB3 radio, stock bootloader (KA3), and the AOSP+ rom.

Just thought I'd share my expereinces to others with the same setup as me.
[Nexus S Android Development] thebastian74:
I have to enable Deep Idle in NSTools or its enabled by default. I don't find this in the first post.
[Nexus S Android Development] Zorrich:
EDIT: Deleted as Eugene corrected statement on next post.
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
Stop Talking about Deep Idle..... You CAN NOT CONTROL IT from NSTools nor look at stats, it's not the same people..

Just going to disable this all together so people thing it's not installed :D :D :D :D

And yes, this answered in the OP, but I'll be a bit clearer on the next update :)

[Nexus S Android Development] jeffkhlam:
android os seems eating my battery, always in the top two battery consumption even in idle. i turned off auto rotation but didnt seem to help. anyone?
[Nexus S Android Development] IIIV:
Just installed this kernel, and everything is running smooth so far. I had a green screen right before the screen goes to sleep, but I reset my Voodoo Control Plus' gamma hack settings to 2.3.3 defaults, and then re-adjusted back the RGB settings, and the green screen is gone.

Thanks, eugene.
[Nexus S Android Development] sperelli:
and this is the only way to get it at work.

BLN won't work in any other way on missed calls at least on i9023EU, will it Eugene?
[Nexus S Android Development] fabulous69:
loving this kernel.

stable, and good battery life. exactly what i'm expecting of a custom kernel.

I prefer stock with just a bit modifications, than a tuned "Incredible" kernel with 1million tweaks that reboots al the time and give me bad battery life just because of a bit more speed :D
[Nexus S Android Development] cpaixao:
Is anyone here experiencing reboot when using music players? I am investigating it, so please, let me know...
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
only time I get reboots is when I mess with Live OC.
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
Well I did experience a reboot *my only one* since using eugene's kernels and it was while using "whatsapp" I noticed it started to lag till the minute it just froze on me and then rebooted.

And I had always used LIVEOC up to 110 using either ondemand or smartassv2 for later kernels min 200 max 1000 .....

I am not sure if this is related, but all previous build were non-ICUP versions and I never experienced reboots on those!

Well, that was my only bad experience to report using 3.1.6-ICUP kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] damnmisur:
No problems here. Had to up voltages for stability at 1300 mhz. Also worked beautifully on Brainmaster ICS. KD1 radio. Newest bootloader.

Sent from my 9020a running Ultimate ICS v2 and Matr1x 13
[Nexus S Android Development] juliano_q:
I am using liveoc 110 with no reboots. When I raised to 115 I had a lot of reboots even raising voltages.
[Nexus S Android Development] maped:
Me too but I don't know if is it a very problem:(...thank's a lot eugene, very very great work!!!

[Nexus S Android Development] ZeppeMan:
About the Android OS eating up battery...

Is it a common problem with ICS and that's why Google halted their update. We can't do anything about it, we just have to wait untill Google fixes it.
[Nexus S Android Development] ZeDestructor:
I find it no worse than on GB myself, but 3G is still borked.
[Nexus S Android Development] mamba720027:
Useing pixelrom 1.01 and I'm very pleased with the stability and battery life I get with this kernel. Live oc 110% and -25 across arm volt and int volt. 220mhz-880mhz capped running governor ondemand ,sampeling rate 15000 and uphold threshold 98. Netflix video playback for hours and online games ran with no reboots,usually if Netflix reboots then nothing is stable for me. This kernel is the s*** :)
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
for those getting reboot... I'll post a new kernel for you to try out..

Just give me a holler on twitter... for a link to try.
[Nexus S Android Development] abhilashraj:
Can't believe your level of patience eugene!

thank you very much again for the EPIC kernal and for all the hardwork..

i'm keeping an eye out for any updates on this thread - for newer versions, but more IMPORTANTLY, because i'm getting a kick out of reading a gazzillion people asking about deep idle :p
[Nexus S Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Does Deep Idle work? I can't see any stats... :D Just kidding

But seriously, I understand that the stats don't work and that your deep idle is different but I do want to confirm whether of not I need to turn it on in NSTools or not. It's showing to be off by default... Please don't shoot me :(
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
Question is Valid :)

Turn it on, turn it off :) Does nothing by default :)
[Nexus S Android Development] renna1992:
bln is not working for me, fresh install, just flashed the newest cm9 kang, gapps and the kernel. changed nothing in nstools or something, just "stock" how it is. have we to change something?
[Nexus S Android Development] technogravy:
I couldn't get BLN to work, nor would the settings stick if change in NSTools/ASOP+ Settings, on the ASOP+ 2.0 ROM..

I really want to try this kernel out though, Any one else got this to work with ASOP+ using BLN?
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
try this & let me know.. I had a few things goofed up, if this work I'll update the post with this kernel.

Also Suggested for people having reboot issue as well.

http://www.multiupload.com/RJ8GQLN0JG

P.s.

In the Next Release I'll be removing Live OC, Love the ideal, but very unstable for me & when using it I get reboots vs. just over clocking via NSTools or SetCPU
[Nexus S Android Development] staplebox:
OTA ICS with the latest kernel here. Live OC @ 110 - smartassv2 - 1320 - stock voltage

Very stable and great battery so far today. No reboots regardless of what I throw at it.

Very nice - thank you.
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
OKay I'll be updating the post soon... with the correct patch that fixes the 9023 bln... I might leave live oc in now, getting mixed results on it, some say it working fine now & other no... :confused::confused:
[Nexus S Android Development] IIIV:
BLN is working for me.

I9020T with Brainmaster's Stock ICS 4.0.3
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
Don't thank me, thank Ezekeel!

I screwed up his patch when I applied the bln
[Nexus S Android Development] renna1992:
yeah, but eugenes stated that he fixed the problem on the i9023, which is my model and i have a problem with bln.

glad you figured it out eugene, can't thank you enough :)
[Nexus S Android Development] igor.tonky:
great kernel, stable @1.3, seems to be stable @1.4 with 110% oc and votalge upped to 1425 so far on my 9023, thanks a lot eugene!

feature request - being a big fan of 'conservative' governor, can you please change the 'sampling rate' for it to start from 15-20K ms, so it can be responsive enough?

iirc it was CONFIG_HZ=1000 on 2.x kernels.
[Nexus S Android Development] juliano_q:
liveoc is woking very well, you just have to find the point where your phone start to be instable. My phone on liveoc 110 never reboots.

I would vote to leave it, but if you think is better to remove it np :)
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
No BLN on my i9023 :(. but other then that great kernel! awesome battery life :D
[Nexus S Android Development] Emama:
Eugene posted a test kernel to fix BLN in #302 try it out
[Nexus S Android Development] Harley25:
BLN is working! 9023 Stock ICS.
[Nexus S Android Development] cpaixao:
Mine really doesnt support anyway. Even configured at 105% and raised all voltages by 50mV. But I do attribute that to factoring process tolerances, not kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] mamba720027:
Live OC is the holy grail.
[Nexus S Android Development] uansari1:
Running liveoc without issue at 110%.. Please leave it in.. :-)
[Nexus S Android Development] Krishath:
I just wanted to say that... I'm AMAZED with the battery life!

Bluetooth Car Media Sharing + BT Loudspeaker + Whatsapp + WiFi Tethering + 6-7 Calls over 13 hours = 61 % battery remaining. WOW.

:-D
[Nexus S Android Development] bravo04:
so this kernel already overclocked 1,3 Ghz at the default condition..??
[Nexus S Android Development] brenix:
Awesome kernel.. I finally found my favorite for ICS!

Any chance this includes Stochastic Fair Blue (internet packet queue management algorithm)?? It is in other kernels such as Matr1x and Franco Kernel...

IMO, this has helped smooth web browsing etc..
[Nexus S Android Development] bravo04:
can we use this kernel to GB rom..??
[Nexus S Android Development] joaoennes:
Read the title of the thread!
[Nexus S Android Development] bravo04:
then if i follow your word, it is just for ICS OTA..

lol
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
Going to post the kernel in the morning, also added a Feature for Dev's like BM that can now just drop his Ramdisk into any kernel..

as I've edited the ramdisk for tweaks & can just be replaced at will by other people now wishing to use...

That way I can still include my Ramdisk, but let the MIUI Dev's keep there Ramdisk as need or on the fly edits of the ramdisk as well using the old school split & unsplit method of unpacking a boot.img
[Nexus S Android Development] technogravy:
Thanks Eugene.. Your new link works perfect on asop+ with BLN et all.. However nstools/asop + settings don't show my changes sticking, but they seem to be working, any idea what may bee wrong?
[Nexus S Android Development] 93ae8074:
SmartassV2

Hi there,

Just a question. After applying LiveOC 110, is there a need to change SmartassV2 values awake_ideal_freq and sleep_ideal_freq to 880000 and 110000 respectively?

Cheers.
[Nexus S Android Development] maniac2403:
Thanks Eugene! Just ran through my battery and it lasted 1d 8 h with your kernel. Really impressive and no more widget not refreshing issue with other kernels!

This kernel rocks!
[Nexus S Android Development] sperelli:
let's try this version..

let u know soon
[Nexus S Android Development] toyface:
Been using this great kernel with nuhetri's ROM (well worth a try folks), super smooth and not had a single reboot, loving this kernel, keep it up thanks for the hard work!

Toyface
[Nexus S Android Development] technogravy:
Turns out the problem with NSTools/ASOP+ Settings was a ROM problem and deleting and reinstalling the app did the trick. and this Kernel is really smooth now..

I really like how this charges up to 100%, may be its cosmetic or for real but if you ask me thats how it should be, a full charge should be 100%!! even if its cosmetic, an end user shouldnt have to worry about overcharging or any of that stuff, and i hated seeing 94/96%

Now the only thing left to see is the battery life. This works very well with ASOP+.

@eugene, will the new kernel you put up in the morning be different from the last test kernel you put up for the i9023 (few posts back)?
[Nexus S Android Development] sperelli:
And here we are, god be blessed, BLN works!

Yet, to get it work for missed calls on 9023EU and stock rooted 4.0.3

BLN pro app is NEEDED.

BLX option now not available ... :mad:

do i have to use a custom rom for this to work?

EDIT: if I would use only the lights-on notification, instead of their blinking, the notification fails if a sms is received (GO SMS lights notification is blinking)....

This could depend on the setting ON of the blinking by kernel default. What about it great Eugene?
[Nexus S Android Development] alzard:
Thank you very much for your kernel. It is my first time to flash a custom kernel and it blows my mind away and now it runs smoother than ever. Please keep it up! :)
[Nexus S Android Development] Zorrich:
Something is up with BLN. It does indeed blink for me, but when I unlock the phone the LED's go dark as if BLD was on, but I've turned it off. When I touch the buttons, LED comes back on. Exactly how BLD would work if it were on.

Had this issue in GLaDOS as well. Haven't tried his newer version to see if it is still there.
[Nexus S Android Development] sperelli:
Simply, disable backlightdimmer.
[Nexus S Android Development] Zorrich:
If by disable you mean go into NSTools and turn it off, as my OP says I've already done that.

Backlight Dimmer (BLD) is not on at any other time, just when BLN is on, and I've received a notification. When I unlock my phone, the LED's go out until I touch them again, and then never show this problem again until my next notification.
[Nexus S Android Development] juliano_q:
I am using BLN with BLD together and they work well, I am not sure if this problem you is having is related to BLD. I am not using BLN blinking, maybe you should try it.
[Nexus S Android Development] ZeDestructor:
@eugene373: could you add a 4th number in the kernel names (like Arch does for package updates 3.1.5-1 -> 3.1.5-2) for new kernels based on the same base Linux source code? It makes it easier for me to track the odd bug and improvements etc. Great Kernel otherwise. I absolutely love it.

Oh, and I fixed my 3G issues. \o/
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
kernel updated
[Nexus S Android Development] v3rk:
would the kindest of you pretty please post or pm me the hotfile link from the multiupload page? i desperately want to try this kernel but can only access hotfile here at work. help a poor crack flasher out.

eugene373, thanks a lot, this is working brilliant...
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
I've stated a numerous amount of time to not link Download links..

Please DM him & Remove them.
[Nexus S Android Development] lukappaseidue:
Hi Eugene373, thank You very much for your work.

Kernel is fantastic

My Nexy is very smooth and battery last very long.

I noticed that in this latest kernel 12/30, using the CPUSpy the CPU never reaches the minimum frequency of 100, while up to 12/28 release, although the frequency was set by NSTool at 200Mhz (could not change) the CPU marked use (minimum) even at 100Mhz
[Nexus S Android Development] juliano_q:
Just flashed it. It is working very well, as usual. Eugene's kernel is by far the faster and most stable atm.
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
Thanks Eugene for the Speedy kernel. Currently testing it on my MIUI ROM.

Question - you have now RamDisk in the kernel zip. How does it act and whats doing?
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
it's the ramdisk :)

now you no longer have to rip the boot.img apart, just drop your ramdisk in.

If you need the .sh scripts on split & unsplit just let me know.. They was made my by my buddy Barakinflorida
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
Nice update :D
[Nexus S Android Development] FL0OD:
Fresh wipe installed new kernel and I got this. Any ideas? Running Gomez rom ns4g, stock everything.

°•neXus S4G•°
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
You are crazy!

Your kernel goes very well with my MIUI ROM.
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
I thought you said the ramdisk would work for your miui? that's why I included the ramdisk option :)

Fist off, I've not had any issue's, so might be a Rom issue..

Also, I don't support the NS4G as I don't own this device.

normally a Pic. is worth a thousand words, but in this case i don't have much to go on to be much help..

~Eugene
[Nexus S Android Development] mamba720027:
my phone feels definitely snappier and apps load time is faster with the updated kernel and I'm getting to use the minimum 100mhz frequency for first time on ICS rom. Thanks Eugene.
[Nexus S Android Development] ZeppeMan:
Just flashed your latest release, I instantly noticed how snappy everything works compared to your previous release.

Again great work!
[Nexus S Android Development] FL0OD:
Cool thanks. I will let others know as your kernel is being added to kernels and "advertised" by others as working with ns4g.

[Nexus S Android Development] damnmisur:
Same problem and NFC force close on Brainmaster ICS 4.0.3 . Switched to Ultimate ICS V2. Everything works fine.

Sent from my 9020a running Ultimate ICS V2 and latest Eugene kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
okay, I just got this as well.. I think I know what it is & will fix asap
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
Those getting FC please hit me on twitter to test a new kernel
[Nexus S Android Development] fabulous69:
same problem here with brainmaster ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] cpaixao:
Hi Eugene373. I have to congratulate you for your work. I've been testing your kernel and could verify its awesome.

I found it stable at @1200mhz for my device. Unfortunately it wont allow anything above this, even raising up voltages. I would like to investigate it better, since most part of freezes or reboot happens when using PowerAMP and i've been looking into PowerAMP behavior too and it seems not much optimized for ICS yet.

Excluding that, every little thing i tested with your build has flowed very smooth and fast: shots, gallery, gaming, browsing, multi-tasking, etc...

I will not flash your todays update, in order you've not changing almost anything, but added anykernel method.

Good job, and donation will come soon... you deserve it. :D
[Nexus S Android Development] FL0OD:
for me looked to be a theme reacting with the kernel. I would much rather use your kernel than the theme. Still troubleshooting. But it's not the kernel.

°•neXus S4G•°
[Nexus S Android Development] xmatrix13:
If this kernel allows the battery to charge to 100 doesn't it ruin the battery life span (overtime)? I thought the whole purpose to blx to stop the battery from charging to 100 so that it doesn't over charge.
[Nexus S Android Development] lukappaseidue:
I think this is only a cosmetic trick ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] fabulous69:
yes it is ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] nexusphone:
the appearance of a new master

Thanks, Eugene :)
[Nexus S Android Development] fabulous69:
clearly !

Just waiting for the kernel fix for brainmaster's rom (and maybe others ?) to stop these force close :) !
[Nexus S Android Development] xmatrix13:
thanks for such a quick answer. Well since we are on the topic of battery life what is your "record" with this kernel?
[Nexus S Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
I havent flashed todays release yet, but I wanted to report that with the previous version I'm getting a BT share wakelock. Any time I connect my BT headset, it starts the BT share and even after disconnecting my headset it stays in wakelock unless I toggle BT off/on.
[Nexus S Android Development] GallStones:
Sorry, link removed
[Nexus S Android Development] provolinoo:
new test kernel from eugene to try to fix FC is available on his last tweet on twitter :)
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
It doesn't charge to 100% as that would ruin the battery!!

It's cosmetic only & calculation is 1-96 = 100% once it hits the 96% max via kernel.

via kernel the top max charge is 95% so 96% is full.

so, 1-96 is the same as 1-100 via how the system reports it.

reason for blx not being needed.
[Nexus S Android Development] jblazea50:
I've been using this kernel for the past couple of days (since it started working on NS4G) and everything is great. Today, I had to go somewhere and was using the GPS. I got 3-4 freezes and had to remove the battery each time to get it back working. I'm on CM9 alpha 19, kernel wasn't OCed or anything.

On the drive back, I switched to another kernel and had no issues whatsoever. I know you don't support NS4G device but wondering if anyone else had similar issue with the GPS/navigation.

Thanks for the great kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] petrochemicals:
Just read your post so I decide to open up maps and see. It froze up within 30 seconds. I am on an NS4G using vhgomez36-ICS-NX-4G-4.0.3 r1 with 3.1.6-ICUP 12/30. Anyone else having GPS issues?

**update** Navigation freezes up within 30 sec's too. It gets really slow and doesn't want to do anything. A battery pull fixes it but if I go back to Nav it does the same thing.
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
I think this kernel is not for N4SG users!!
[Nexus S Android Development] Esteway.619:
It works so I would say it is.

Thanks Eugene I'm on the build before today. Will test new version when I get home.
[Nexus S Android Development] KrisMurdrum:
Love this kernel, it has amazing OC stability. Been using it for a while now and didn't have any FC's until I accidentally OC'd @1300 + LOC'd @110 (and then Only while trying to use Opera Mobile or AnTuTu Benchmark)
[Nexus S Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
I had to do a battery pull when Facebook tried to get a GPS lock last night. Its worked before and since with no freezing but there is definitely an issue with GPS and the NS4G on this kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
I have clearly stated I don't support NS4G, I don't own this device & we're in the NS forum & not the NS4G forum.. #justsaying

If you get issue with NS4G, I would wait until a NS4G user works off of my kernel guys.

Those of you reporting Reboot issues? Are you using Live OC?

~Eugene
[Nexus S Android Development] petrochemicals:
I am aware that you do not support the NS4G, but maybe those with just a Nexus S have had this issue as well. It is worth asking. #justsaying

Has anyone with a regular Nexus S had any GPS issues?
[Nexus S Android Development] nexusphone:
I'm using LiveOC 110 but have no reboot at all on this kernel :)
[Nexus S Android Development] IIIV:
+1 and so obvious. :)

As for this kernel. I've been using it on my I9020T with Brainmaster's Stock ICS 4.0.3 for more than 24 hours now, no Live OC -- just overclocked at 200/1200 MHz, and no reboots or any issues. I've also switched from cfq -> bfq and noticed that GUI and apps run snappier and smoother.

Thanks again, eugene!
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
I'm just saying I don't want the clutter of NS4G issue in this thread.

How clear can I be, NS4G use at there own risk period & I've not had any issue with GPS on my NS

Honestly not trying to be a jerk, but I never support a device I don't own due to unforeseen issue's like the one's starting to pop-up regarding the NS4G..
