Flashed speedy-1 last night and I am up to testing right now... Battery life keeps great. I am 1.3GHz again and giving a hard try on PowerAMP, no reboots or freezes yet.

Good job.

Wifi issue

Is the wifi problem solved with this rom?
[Nexus S Android Development] ZeDestructor:
No wifi issues for me.
[Nexus S Android Development] rijads:
I havent noticed any wifi problem
[Nexus S Android Development] lio02:
this is the issue some countries' SIM card users face...
[Nexus S Android Development] technogravy:
@eugene, is there a reason you havent enabled a lower barrier of 100 MHz?

I just flashed your latest kernel, and it works really well with ASOP+.

it just keeps getting better,
[Nexus S Android Development] Lxus:
~BUMP

missing it too
[Nexus S Android Development] cpaixao:
I think Eugene is trying to get the kernel better for most part of users, so, as some people was having problems with Live OC, Eugene decided to remove it.

Also, i dont recommend to Live OC phones in order it increases the nandflash bandwidth. Nandflash might be the most fragile component on our phones and we shoudnt try to get it stressed or we'll get freezes or even damage nandflash permanently.

I know, i know... you might say "i ever done this... and other kernels have it to, so never got a single problem..." But believe me: you shoudnt play with nandflash increasing it bus...
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
You had the wifi-simcard issue right? just flash this zip in recovery. (dont wipe anything). the zip contains the 2.3.7 wifi driver, so if you flash that wifi will work normally on ICS like it worked on 2.3.7

If you used the scripts before to make it work (you know the country code bypass), delete them first than flash this zip. :) ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] juliano_q:
Flashed the last version and it is fast and I have no issues so far, everything is working quite well.
[Nexus S Android Development] Lxus:
No question about it, but well, I decreased the stress for this nandflash. Used the liveOC feature for Underclocking.

So I get a state at ~1.1 Ghz with the same Voltage at 1Ghz.

He could just add this feature again with your advise :)
[Nexus S Android Development] cpaixao:
Did you mean undervolting instead "underclocking" ? If yes, you're able to do this with this kernel yet. But you'll need to try out lower voltages for selected clock (but i see it very stable as Eugene configured for us).

@eugene are you going to continue the support of your ICS rom? It would be a great combo :D
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
Yeah I think the Kernel is perfect now...

Time to start building my own rom again. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] juliano_q:
After flashing SPEEDY-2 had a sod (cpu and voltages stock). Rebooted and everything started to FC. Flashing back SPEEDY-1 for now so I can go out and start drinking :)

This is only using the Phone as a phone. Voice calls only..
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
YEah the kernel is perfect! I cant wait for your rom!!! :D

I just hit your 1900th thanks :D hahaha
[Nexus S Android Development] cpaixao:
I had no problems here. I recommend you to wipe cache and davilk cache 2x before flashing. When flashing, flash it 2x too just for be sure. I done this and i havent experienced any fc!
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
You only need clean and flash once.
[Nexus S Android Development] tdf666:
Yea a clean install of rom and kernel worked for me as well.
[Nexus S Android Development] stephenwithph:
Weird... I flashed after delvik-cashe and cashe wipe. Rebooted to nfc service fc, android process service fc constantly.

So tried reinstall rom and flash kernel on top still same thing. Went back to speedy-1

I wonder if this is specific to miui roms as others are working. I am running BM Miui v2 which had speedy-1

Anyone else?
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
I'll take a look why its happening on my ROM. Since I'm away I can't test it right now, but I have a hint.
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
You need a MIUI Ramdisk, ask your local MIUI Dev for the ramdisk.img to replace the one I have in it.
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
It changes every week. Its easier for them to open the kernel zip and delete the ramdisk folder. This should work fine.
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
yeah that too...

Like I said, I like options, so that's why I made it included
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
What about ma question regarding integrating your kernel in my MIUI ROM? Do you have something against it?

Your kernel is the best for me, and I hope that it stays so.
[Nexus S Android Development] cpaixao:
Maybe, but CWM recovery fail on wipe sometimes, so i do twice. Ever.
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
With new v2 I'm losing data signal strength!
[Nexus S Android Development] IIIV:
I'm not sure if this is a kernel or rom issue, but whenever I wake up my I9020T and Wi-Fi connects, the Wi-Fi icon on the notification bar is all gray, even if its signal is excellent.

The Wi-Fi icon goes to normal and gets back its blue bars once I turn off and turn back on right away my screen.

Anyone else experiencing this?

I have the same issue on Brainmaster's Stock ICS 4.0.3 and Pixel Stock ICS ROM.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus S Android Development] stephenwithph:
Thanks Brainmaster. Worked like a charm. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] dsellers2:
I really put your latest kernel to the test. Results are astounding. 4 1/2 hours with the display on out of 9 1/2 hours of battery. I pretty much played asphault 6 for around 2 hours of that time. My battery would have been done in, in 4 hours on any other kernel and I got 9 hours easily. Saweet. Check out the screen shot and notice the display on time.

Next test, a day of business use, I'm guesstimating my battery will last about 2 days of normal to heavy usage during my normal business day. Which is the best I've seen so far out of any kernels since I've had my nexus. it's really close to Morfic's gingerbread kernels as far as quality, speed, stability, and battery. Awesome kernel Eugene!

See!

By the way, when I had my vibrant I used your roms and kernels quite a bit.
[Nexus S Android Development] Andrew421:
I'm having FC's on almost everything. I booted and got a launcher FC and rebooted and had about 20 FC's waiting for me on unlock... I wiped and such. I'm on official OTA using the 3.1.6
[Nexus S Android Development] tdf666:
@Andrew you can try flashing the kernel twice or strarting from scratch. I flashed the rom from scratch then rebooted wiped cache and flashed the kernel. It finally worked for me.
[Nexus S Android Development] Andrew421:
I'll try that thanks!
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
@ Eugene, there is something wrong with the Speedy-2 kernel also when I don't delete the ramdisk from the zip file.

At first it start fine, after some 10 - 15 minutes the display fades completely to black and I need to restart the Phone. It gets also in some sort of Bootloop, USB disconnects and nothing works.

After this happened twice in the last hour, I rebooted for third time and got endless FC's.

Needed to restore the NAND with the Speedy-1.

On Speedy-2 the data=writeback tweak doesn't work. When I enter the "mount" command in the Terminal Emulator it shows that the data is ordered.

Don't know what changes have you made on Speedy-2, but its critical on my MIUI ROM.

Everything off except the BLN. OnDemand, 100 MHz / 1 GHz with -25 mV on every value (runs stable for me on any kernel).

EDIT: Got the same issue now on my NAND backup with the Speedy-1 kernel. I don't know what is causing it. Any hints?
[Nexus S Android Development] bravo04:
hi eugene.

happy new year 2012.

i just want to give a little suggestion.

how if you put a list of kernel version you have (with download link of course) in your post in first page?

so people can choose which kernel that really suit for them. because i read in some latest post here, there is so many people complaint with your latest kernel but just fine in your previous kernel.

thanks. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] cpaixao:
Hey, i think this as most part of related issues are flashing errors. I recommend you to wipe your cache and davilk cache twice, then flash kernel twice too.

If you prefer, you can erase boot partition via fastboot too. Should work fine for you.
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
I think its the rom. I used speedy 1 and 2 without any problems. No reboots or freezes everything worked as it should.. happy new year btw ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] XxSilent22xX:
The new speed 2 kernel is running excellent on the pixelrom everything is nice and smooth. I will have to say that the 12-28 kernel was a tad better and had liveoc, I really miss liveoc it allowed me to squeeze extra MHz out of my OC since my phone can't do 1.3 everything else though is great keep up the great work and happy new year!

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] rbrucemtl:
audio freezing

I guess most people using OC don't listen to music on their nexus s

I have been running at 1300 MHz very stable on absolutely everything but when I listen to music the phone will freeze after 5 or 10 min sometime more or less with a loud pulsing sound followed by a reboot.

It seems the audio hardware is sensitive to OC

Anyone else seen this?
[Nexus S Android Development] S_Dot:
I noticed after I installed this my softkey lights only stay on for like 5 seconds.
[Nexus S Android Development] abhilashraj:
Could you try check the "Backlight Dimmer" setting inside NSTools?

Looks like it's set to on ...
[Nexus S Android Development] staplebox:
Almost 8hrs up on Speedy 2 and stock ROM. All is fine.

Briefly tested @ 1300 and it was stable there. Then back to orig kernel settings. Battery is @ 83%.
[Nexus S Android Development] S_Dot:
Thanks I'll try that. Last question what is the default Governor for ICS?

Smartassv2? or on demand?
[Nexus S Android Development] maniac2403:
Default governor in Google Kernel is on-demand.
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
Happy New Year & Thank your for the Support!

For best best Battery life.... Leave the Default setting I have :)
[Nexus S Android Development] lukappaseidue:
Hi Boss ;)

which are Your default setting?

Mine are interactive min 200 max 1000 e default voltgage.... other untouched or unselected BLD

While writing .... 33% of battery, 1 day 12 hours of use, data on, 3g ect.
[Nexus S Android Development] cpaixao:
I fully agree to that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! @1.3Ghz doesnt go anyway with music on PowerAMP. @1.2 runs well.
[Nexus S Android Development] ArnoutVos:
This is the battery drain bug, which forced Google to stop temporarily the process for updating Nexus S to ICS from Gingerbread.

This is NOT related to this kernel or phone, as it happens on the Galaxy Nexus / stock ICS too.

My observations: Suddenly the battery drain starts to increase, mostly when the screen is off. Phone starts to get warm when having it in your pocket. You can verify it by checking the 'Android OS' process, high usage numbers (speaking about hours) indicate that the bug is affecting you. Reboot is the workaround so far.

I had the same problem twice flashing the kernel over Pete's rom. Can't use speedy 2, had to restore speedy 1 nand.
[Nexus S Android Development] cpaixao:
I had no issues with speed-2 since i follow my "flashing ritual" that is:

Undo overclock

Wipe cache and davilk cache 2x

Power Off (not reboot)

Flash kernel twice

Power off once more

Boot.

:D

When i want to do a really fresh kernel install, i do an fastboot erase boot too.
[Nexus S Android Development] htcclay:
Vibrant support.

[Nexus S Android Development] thomasck:
How is the performance? Stills a bit laggy etc?

EDIT

Sorry, posted on the wrong topic..
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
I had to go back to 3.1.6 before the any kernel changes... for me it has the least issues... with latest one my DATA is losing strength and it also feel a bit laggy.
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
Odd, nothing in the kernel source was touch regarding for that to happen.
[Nexus S Android Development] cap11:
Sorry to say, but speedy 2 started to be totally laggy (all wipes were done as usual). Whichever program i started, or whatever i pressed i had to wait 3 or more seconds.

Went back to Kernel_3.1.6_ANY-KERNEL and everything is ok smooth (except GPS location which takes very long, but that could be an app related problem).

Didn't try speedy 1, so there i have no experience.
[Nexus S Android Development] Hamletiano:
It seems not to work didle for me...

My battery doesn't last too much... any reason why it doesn't use didle?

Supposed to be on by default.

Only change I made through nstools was enabling touch wake since it didn't work for me with the kernel.

Running with Aosp+ 2.0.3.

[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
There's gotta be something somewhere, what I noticed is since you implemented the ANY_KERNEL_ICUP *whatever that is* your kernel has somehow been affected by random issues for different people.

If you notice, before that we never had that many issues!

I'm not trying to be disturbing, just observing differences in your kernels. Please forgive me if I sound harsh! By any means it's me being sarcastic, on the contrary I just love your work and just try to give some feedback.

PS. It would also help if you would be able to change your format a bit, say:

3.5

changes made are:

3.6

changes made are:

3.1.6_ICUP

changes made are:

It would just helps us out iron issues in order to give you proper feedback as well.

Thanks once more.
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
3.6 & 3.6-ICPU is the same source?

Just a name change was all...

These issues that are poping up is odd & I find funyy due to not even changing anything.. Mainly just ext4 & misc stuff that would cause those issue's...

I'll mess with another kernel tonight, but I've had no issue, nor reboots or lag as well..

Just Puzzled is all at a few random issue while everyone else is doing fine..

Rom issue?
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
good point Eugene! I had posted my issues at the ROM thread I am using http://rootzwiki.com/topic/12956-rom-aosp-android-open-kang-project-crespo-build-2012-dec-31/

Maybe it is ROM related!

Thanks much for your time answering!!
[Nexus S Android Development] dsellers2:
Your latest is running great with all your default settings. I guess I'm lucky to not experience any of the issues others say they are having. Great battery and even better performance.

Eugene, which rom are u using along with your kernel...i´d like to flash ur rom and check again, like this we can definitely know if, for example my problem by not getting the didle status is related to the rom i was using. :)

I also need to say that besides my problem with didle, the kernel performance and stability are amazing.

2. Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache

Charged to 100% after flashing Speedy-2 kernel (about an hour of phone calls and mostly hours of browsing and playing Reckless Getaway):

i flashed this kernel over aosp+ neapolitan ics v2.0.1 last night....and i got bad battery drain...12hours on battery from 100% to 28%:confused: is it bcoz of the kernel or the rom?what rom u are using?

p/s : i like this kernel...stable...i hv experienced no reboots untill now... :D
[Nexus S Android Development] eugene373:
Likely you have an App installed that is hanging the system os into not sleeping...

most app's aren't fully stable on ics just yet..

As above there must be an app in the background.

Last night I installed swype and tried to add on other languages. However there is a bug in swype causing the app to continually search/download your chosen language. Anyway, after 1 night off charge it went from 100% to 32%.

In saying that, my Android OS % is alot higher than usual.

This kernel has a different version of deep idle. Which IMO idles alot better, and unlike other kernels i've never had an SOD with this kernel running didle
[Nexus S Android Development] GerManiac:
Nice Kernel, however BLN & BLD is not working for me. I tried to enable it over nstools, but not getting the option. Before install I wiped cache/dalvik. After install I fixed permissions. SU-rights are granted. Using I9023. Otherwise nice smooth Kernel, but primarily I wanted BLN. Any ideas?
[Nexus S Android Development] Hamletiano:
It is definitely an app that we have been using. I am using the same rom as you...i was having the same problem.

Reinstalled rom (aosp+ 2.0.3)

Reinstalled lite gapps 01/01/12

Reinstalled Eugene´s kernel speedy-2

And now my mobile turns into didle again!!!

Therefore, it has to be an app which avoid the didle status to work. Even about the camera bug that i read, it is solved in Eugene´s kernel. I turned it on, turned it off, and didle still working.

Thanks for your answers.;)
[Nexus S Android Development] brainmaster:
@ Eugene, I must correct myself. I found what was causing the issues - I've changed the IO Scheduler to BFS, that was causing the issues and reboots.

Since I'm back on CFS on your speedy-2 everything runs fine.

I apologize myself.

The only issue left is that I have data=ordered instead data=write_back, Its like the script is not working. Strange is that it worked after the first flash of the kernel when I checked the mount options.
[Nexus S Android Development] mijul mojas:
ill try to do jst like u did yours...hmmm...how to makesure the phone is didle?sorry...im new with this didle term.:confused:
[Nexus S Android Development] Hamletiano:
I use cpu spy, it shows all freq cpu has used.

you can check if deep sleep has been used, which means if i understood correctly, that didle (in eugene´s kernel) has been working. (we would say that deep sleep= didle),and therefore better battery life.

BTW, at the moment i have used : skype,whatsapp,battery dr,airdroid,tapatalk and some more and didle status still working...if it helps you as a guide for your apps...:)
