I'm having issue with lock screen. There's like a 5 second delay before it let's me slide to unlock.

Anyone else experience this?

Is it the ROM or kernal?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kurigowa:
No probs w lockscreen or really anything with this kernel. Running AOSP's 43 build(12/23/11) with Eugene's Speedy 2. Super smooth, really fast, very stable.

Thanks Eugene, great job!!

Happy New Year suckas!!

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] randyist:
Holy eff this kernel is fast. I opened up nstools and it says the processor is running at 1000 mhz and not 1300 mhz. Are we supposed to have to change it manually? I just want to make sure I'm doing it right because I thought I read in the OP that it is already set at 1300

Thanks!

I believe only the paid Voodoo Plus will save settings and restore them after reboot
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kdepro:
I got a random reboot! Am I the first one? I'm shockingly excited since I was in the middle of a stumble upon article about air force one. ANYWAY. I was stumbling and listening to an mp3 on double twist player. I really would have liked to get a logcat but I'm not near a terminal. I opened one up on my terminal emulator on reboot though. Not sure if it's worth anything but I'll keep it in the background as long as I can if anyone is interested.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kdepro:
If your ROM supports init.d scripts or if you have scripter or ROM Toolbox, you can set the values at boot in a script without the voodoo app.

If you poke around in /sys/class/misc/voodoo_color there are settings for it in there

Thanks for the suggestion, I followed the map above to poke around and that's what I felt like I was doing - selected edit, saw my settings and saved, but saw nothing in ToolBox that allowed me to save these as boot.

If you have time, could you add what I need to do so I don't have to set everytime? Thanks

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] xuser:
Do a search in the main NS forums for voodoo settings. There is a thread on how to make the settings stick. You have to download a file and install somewhere in /data.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] whoozyodadday:
Lock screen issue was due to the back light settings being at 0 or 500ms. 1000ms it works fine.

You can just download rom toolbox and do a script to make them stick. Google, making voodoo color setting stick and it will come up

Hugely impressed with this kernel so far. Hugely.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Braneless:
Me too - stable, no reboots, smooth & quick, and all of the add-ons we expect. This is also the first ics kernel I've tried that displays 100% charge... not sure if it's a true charge or just a numbers trick though.

Great work Eugene!

But isn't that the point? Makes no sense for a light user to be at 30% by the end of the day... I personally work 10+ hours a day and when I go to use my phone on the way home I get a frustrated seeing 15% left from just sitting in my pocket....

But this kernel is great though I think he said the 100% we are seeing is cosmetic, but it's a proven fact that placebos does cure...LOL...

keep in mind that heat can contribute to your battery draining. i know my phone dies faster if i keep it close to my body, but i radiate heat like crazy.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] joeyddr:
As soon as I enable latitude it kills all GPS apps like it did previous version. I even restored to before I ever installed the kernel then installed it.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kdepro:
Try flashing speedy again with no wipe (its called a dirty flash), but first, erase your old copy of the kernel, and download a fresh version from a computer with either a wifi or hard line internet connection and load the kernel to your device via adb.

Alternatively, you can verify your md5 checksum for Speedy 2 with

md5sum <filename>

in a terminal:

8a5cc4ce2d10eb143e63c5d287afa910

Reboot

Check gps

Wipe dalvik

Wipe cache

Reboot

Check gps

Wipe dalvik

Wipe cache

Install speedy kernel

Reboot

Check GPS

It seems ridiculous but sometimes things get weird.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Xaelius:
Me too! Lolz...anyways great results here. Haven't had a need for GPS yet but driving a lot today so will enable it just for s&G's...will post back.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] 2VULGAR:
I have a dumb question. I really like this kernel, but so far every rom built from ICS is having 1 or 2 of the same issues, gps is either hit or miss, and the mms is glitchy. So If I go back to my de-odexed stock rom, will this kernel work with it? It is BY FAR the best kernel I have used... and would rather use this than the stock kernel.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] FL0OD:
The only way to make the colors stick is to buy Voodoo Control Plus from the market or if you are so inclined I hear there is a work around but you are on your own with that one.

I never use latitude unless I get lost on a group ride, but I started mine up this morning to see if maybe it was an app issue and mine is working fine.

Kdepro..great idea! Can I run the commands in Terminal from phone instead of ADB?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bunodosoma:
Great work. Running this with oICS43. Had a small stumble when I opened maps for the first time and it rebooted. Fixed permissions. Have had no problems since with maps,GPS, or latitude. So far everything I normally use is running quite smoothly. I thank you and greatly appreciate the work this took. :D
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kdepro:
anything that comes after adb shell and before you exit the shell should work in the terminal, i.e. su, the busybox command for mounting the f/s as writable, and the chmod command to make the script executable. the cat /sys/... commands can all definitely be run from the terminal.

adb push must be run from your computer since it's taking a file from your computer and putting it onto your device. adb remount just mounts the connected device as readable.

I flashed this last night, (I have peter alfonso's 12/22 nightly) and my battery lasted a grand total of 8 hours! I wiped dalvik and cache too. What did i do wrong?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Krayvon:
gps issue

flashed last night and battery life is great. GPS is not working fine, it takes 7 minutes to lock then it drops. i wiped cache and reinstalled but still can't lock gps.

i'm on AOSP ICSV43.

Any suggestions?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kdepro:
i always wipe /data/system/batterystats.bin (calibrate battery. make sure to do this on a full charge) and then let my battery drain until my phone turns off and then charge (powered off) until it's full (somewhere fewer than 3 hours) after flashing a new kernel or rom.

after flashing new kernel or calibrating battery, you wont have a solid baseline for battery drain for at least 2 or 3 full cycles (1 cycle - full charge, full discharge), so it might "get better on its own" give it some time. my first full charge lasted over 18hours after the initial flash. second only lasted 8, and now i'm steady at about 14 with fairly heavy usage. it's all VERY user dependent.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kdepro:
did you wipe cache and dalvik-- try wiping and reflashing? some users report having to wipe cache and dalvik cache multiple times in clockworkmod recovery. you can find a wipe script attached here. it's what I use (some warn about wiping scripts, but i havent had a problem)

they do exactly what they say and can be flashed in recovery:

wipe all wipes /system /boot /cache/ /data and dalvik cache (dalvik is in the /data partition) {Use this when flashing a new ROM}

wipe dalvik and cache wipes only the dalvik cache in /data and the /cache partition {Use this when flashing a new Kernel}

wipe system data and cache wipes /system, /data, and /cache partitions {I literally never use it or know why I keep it, but it's here if you want it | I suppose it would be useful if you were reinstalling the same rom, but I'd still recommend a full wipe if youre going to wipe the system/data partitions anyway
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Krayvon:
done

just did full wipe as suggested. still no gps lock. the GPS Lock Icon stays empty for a few minutes. sometimes it locks for a bit but then it releases. never stays solid though. not sure why its doing it.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Just flashed Speedy 2 and I'm having GPS issues too. Anytime an app tries to get GPS lock the whole system slows to a crawl.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] FL0OD:
Check with your roms also as I used Gomez rom, locked super fast, used two different roms, same kernel, took forever to get a lock. So it maybe the rom in conjunction with the kernel and not just a kernel issue. Easiest way to check is flash the rom with the stock kernel and see what kind of GPS reception you get.

°•neXus S4G•°
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Aosp oICS v43 is the rom I'm using and its had great GPS lock and use until this kernel.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Krayvon:
rom

with the baked in AOSP V43 kernel, gps locks no problem.

with speedy2 the gps lags and drops often, i've noticed multiple people are having the same issue.

this kernel has the best power consumption and performance hands down except the gps issue ;)

BLN trouble

Hey all,

I'm running the latest euroskank kang with this kernel. In cyan settings, I can't mess with the BLN settings. Right now it's set to time out while the screen is on and blinking notifications. I'd like to change that... BLN app doesn't work either.

Any suggestions?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] FL0OD:
First run through with this rom. Can't run it down any lower because I flash to much. Sleep then day use.

°•neXus S4G•°
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] eugene373:
And Moving ON

Regarding GPS:

I'm looking into the issue & it seems that the gps hardware is a bit more finky when I play with the front side bus.

As well, when I updated the kernel source something could be making it flake as well.

I'll put more time into this when I can, as it's a hit & miss... Odd yes!

USB Tethering:

I know alot have requested this feature to be fixed & I'm currently looking over what patch broke this option.

I've not gotten much done this weekend, as between parting ( Some might already know this ) & working on the vibrant kernel the Nexus S has been on the back burner..

Until then,

Well after further testing it appears that I'm getting a fast lock but the phone doesn't know it :confused:

It locks and shows my location but the GPS icon in the notification doesn't show locked. I am still getting lag while using GPS too.

I flashed this kernel yesterday over the vgomez36-403r1.3 rom, and after an almost full drain (down to 6% battery left) and when I plugged the phone into the charger... nothing. It would not take a charge. I tried 2 different usb cables on 3 diffetent computers... nothing. I had to put my battery into another phone to charge my battery to get enough life in it to restore my stock rom backup. Once that was done, it was charging again. Not sure if it is the kernel or the rom, but I'm going to post in the rom thread too... see if anyone else had the same issue.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] nmoreman:
Downloaded Speedy 3 to test, it made my phone do really bad things, froze, green screen overlaid, things I had never seen, back to 2, everything fine.

Downloaded off wifi, wiped cache and dalvic twice, went wonky. Don't know if

wifi download was bad (I usually don't do that) but was bored and had time.

I rebooted, maps and navigation won't find gps lock. If I turn wifi on maps, it does immediately, but that is hard to do when driving - ha. I'm off approx 1/4 mile, would probably work for driving directions.

But still loving this rom, this isn't a complaint just feedback as asked with that kernel.
