I've been using Simple Kernel for a while, as it's the most minimalist kernel I could find. Rather than using NS Tools or another app to tweak, it's done with scripts, and that in turn allows the CPU min to be set to 100mhz. Are you guys able to set the min to 100 with Air Kernel, or is it defaulting to 200mhz?
[Nexus S Android Development] ljordan2:
I have no idea about 99nstools file. I just use nstools app to control it.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
I've put up a tweaked version of the rom with bigmem support now also.

The 99nstools file in init.d is quite self explanatory with 1 and 0 switching things on or off and time values all being in milliseconds.

If you just want to use nstools the application, be sure to delete or copy out the 99nstools file from the init.d directory so that it doesn't execute at boot.
[Nexus S Android Development] Imppy:
Glad you are working with Pete in developing this rom!
[Nexus S Android Development] stexyn:
Hi people, I use pixel rom at this moment but I see the developer move to cooperate this rom.

I want to try this one, what kernel stable with bln do you suggest?

Thanks
[Nexus S Android Development] ljordan2:
Truthfully most of the kernel is stable for me. I haven't experienced any sod since February. So what I'm saying is that the best way to find out the best kernel for your phone is trying them out on your own. But I guess you can start from simple kernel, which is stock kernel+backlight mods.
[Nexus S Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
yup, I love it as is. I played with kernels before, and if thats your thing, giver. Love this just the way it is.
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
Great! Downloading now. Will report later how flashing goes. TY,WP.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
I have to make clear - I'm not working with Pete - just adding a little something that may be of interest to people subscribing to this thread.

I'm a great fan of this ROM, just wanted to add a little more for what I perceive a few people needed.

Doesn't mean I'm making any button modifications though! Not my style to re-assign buttons as it has a tendancy to introduce gremlins.
[Nexus S Android Development] madd0g:
T11 was rebooting, while T132 limited @ 1000/200 with SetCPU (can't go to 100 it seems, because I force GPU rendering and so far I read, that's how its in stock ICS also) is stable and works great. Some reported reboots while recording video, I've started recording and after 5 mins still everything ok. Seems like a good choice, 396MB instead of 337MB stock.
[Nexus S Android Development] stexyn:
Where do you put your rom with modifications?
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:

[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
Why? What's wrong with gremlins? I like gremlins! lol :D
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
I had the gremlins on v2 pixelrom last week. I dont need another fight with the gremlins any time soon! Lol.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
On which note. Do not run the bigmem release. Seems r data hasn't stabilized that yet.

The normal air version I have up is stable.
[Nexus S Android Development] _yaz_:
how can u set min cpu to 100mhz in simple, exactly ? whatever i've just tried gave temporary setting. sg always reverts it to 200mhz, after awhile. with air i have no such problems ...
[Nexus S Android Development] uansari1:
I stick to changing the settings using the init.d script. Easy and painless. If I use Nstools, it's impossible to set min freq to 100mhz.
[Nexus S Android Development] madd0g:
Any chance to share the script ? I'd like to get rid of SetCPU as well, if it's possible to do the same thing with the init.d script.
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
Flashed your tweaked BB with bigmem, although I applied a few tweaks by myself:

- applied brainmaster's ics tweaks

- changed air kernel to a test version he released earlier

- turned off deep idle via init.d

- changed scheduler to snoop via init. d

- applied your apex mod (as flashable zip) - I wonder if you can make another one with a newer version of apex?

Cheers!

EDIT: Looks like my init.d tweaking was an epic fail. says the file is read-only. I guess I still need to learn some more. anyway I use nstools now. the new version has support for applying your preferred settings via init.d upon boot. :D
[Nexus S Android Development] tchaari:
Nice to see you continuing modding ROMs for us wildestpixel. My Nexus S adores your tweaks ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
I don't think he has a choice. His wife uses a Nexus S. He better mod it or else. Haha! Just kidding, mate. :D

[Nexus S Android Development] vis80k:
new matrix 19.0 gives extra ram on regular pete's rom with all video functionality working flawlessly.

all on bb rom, give matrix 19.0 a try for the extra ram. mine now has total of 404mb.
[Nexus S Android Development] madd0g:
Dunno, I've tried the Trinity for a day and although there was more RAM, I didn't notice any speed up while running random apps. If anything, it was actually slower, probably due the "ram tweaks" and how VM behaves. I went back to SimpleKernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] glennkaonang:
Well that's weird. Mine is running faster here.

The most noticeable thing is when I'm opening many apps simultaneously, and then when I opened an app with a keyboard popping up, the keyboard used to lag when fading out using Pete's kernel.

However, using Trinity, the keyboard doesn't lag when fading out, even when many other apps are opened.

I'm using T-132 at 100/1000.

It can be set to 100 via SetCPU, but it goes back to 200 on each reboot.

As for RAM tweaks, I think they don't have any effect on Bugless Beast here since it doesn't support init.d scripts (unless you edited Pete's boot image to support them).

The tweaks are triggered via init.d scripts, aren't they?
[Nexus S Android Development] uansari1:
AFAIK, the script method is limited to Simple Kernel. Check the kernel thread and it's all explained. Just remember to set the proper permissions on the script file and when you install busybox, you'll need not the most recent, but the version just older.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Scripting can be done to all of the kernels. Its only the same settings in an init.d file that nstools would pass to the system at boot.

Version of busy box CAN be the latest as it is in my pixel edition of BB.
[Nexus S Android Development] glennkaonang:
So wildest, it's true that init.d scripts won't work unless we edited the ramdisk inside the boot.img, right?
[Nexus S Android Development] uansari1:
Perhaps on your kernel.. But at least a couple versions ago, I tried latest busybox and didn't get the script to work on Simple Kernel. Switched to .13 version and it began working immediately.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Very true that run parts has to be activated in the ram disk.

The poster I responded to suggested the only kernel out there that would respond to init.d scripts was Terry's simple kernel whereas any kernel that has goodies such as bln or bld will have to be able to use init.d in order for them to work.

Remember that those tweaks predate nstools and the only way there was to use them was either through init.d or perhaps paid apps by neldar.

I'm putting all my energy behind a very well made and tidy kernel at the moment .......
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
That depends on if busy box is implemented properley or someone cheats with jrummy or stericsons busy box installers. In the case of the latest busy box, if installed correctly (not by a market app) it is perfect.
[Nexus S Android Development] afzalarsalan:
I have been getting encryption unsuccessful on first boot when flashing bb_pixeledition with twrp. Tried wiping manually and with RomWiper.zip but no go.

Any ideas?

Also gives the same problem with cwm
[Nexus S Android Development] uansari1:
I'd love to know the proper way to install it. I used an app from Market since it wasn't built into BB.
[Nexus S Android Development] tFrost:
Would it be an idea to make a separate thread for this BB Pixel Edition?
[Nexus S Android Development] :
I believe WP wants to refrain from making threads on XDA as he does not have the time to get to the thousands of replies
[Nexus S Android Development] dsellers2:
Is there a mod or a way to activate long press back key to close active apps on this rom? It's the only thing I feel as if I'm missing.
[Nexus S Android Development] neinfricatu:
same problem here. i have given up on pixel BB, and installed simple BB
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Only cwm is supported by myself. Its simpler to do.
[Nexus S Android Development] tFrost:
Got a random reboot this morning running v0.1 - installing v0.2 and hoping it won't happen again.
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
It was UV so you need a lucky phone. V0.2 isn't UV.
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
I'm on v0.2 now and everything is running smooth and stable. The switch to the new Matr1x is a good move. And I learned how to changed settings thru your init.d scripts so I've no need for NStools. Cheers, mate! :)
[Nexus S Android Development] neinfricatu:
thank you, i did not know that this was the problem
[Nexus S Android Development] vis80k:
only with init.d you need to reboot for changes to take effect... with nstools it ia immediate.

i guess terminal is another option...or script runner...

but not as easy as nstools..
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
Agreed.

Still, I like using init.d scripts since I don't tinker with my CPU settings on a regular basis, and if ever I do need them applied without rebooting, I can always use Scipt Manager. And of course, I just can't get over the thought that I'm hacking my phone, even if I'm just new at this. :D
[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Well put. Its a nice little script I have there to give the most novice user some great settings.
[Nexus S Android Development] maped:
Thanks wildestpixel, another fantastic work!!! All is great, no reboot, no lag, monster battery life in combo with new kernel :).

Thanks a lot :)

P.S. circle battery mod for pixelrom 2.0 works fine on BB v0.2

For those wondering about the navigation bar, I edited the framework-res.apk myself and changed the LCD density within build.prop manually.

I also edited the ramdisk inside boot.img to support init.d scripts.

Hi people, I use air kernel 4.

I notice deep idle go top=on when screen is off.

With other rooms it was top=on

[Nexus S Android Development] lancec50:
Started running wildespixels BB Pixel ROM V0.2 and I can say it is solid, fast and great battery life so far. Very impressed. Peter has built a solid ROM and WP has added some great tweaks. Hats off to you awesome devs.
[Nexus S Android Development] uansari1:
Wildestpixel.. Can you start a new thread specific to your modified rom? I'd like to see exactly what you've done with BB..
[Nexus S Android Development] MaxNXS:
I had a problem with the Google Play Store today where it wouldn't let me purchase any app, giving me the "An error occured. Please try again". I decided to reboot but the phone got stuck in a boot loop at the Google logo. This is with the crespo_2012-04-09 build with stock kernel.

I wiped the cache and reflashed it again. It booted up, but the problem with the Google Play Store is still there.

Anybody having similar problems?

Try using wildestpixel's modified BB. This is the issue that first prompted him to apply his tweaks to Pete's nightly. I'm using it now and it's very stable and truly bug less. just Google wildestpixel to get to his website. you can find links to download there. Hope this helps! :)
[Nexus S Android Development] lancec50:
His signature has the link to his website. You will be able to download from that.
[Nexus S Android Development] MaxNXS:
Unfortunately, the Matr1x kernel is very unstable on my phone and I rather keep the kernel as close to stock ICS as possible.

I'll wait and hopefully Pete will have a fix for this issue soon.
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
You can always flash stock kernels, or stock-based kernels like SimpleKernel or INK, but it's your choice, man. I salute your patience. Wish I could have a little of that, lol. :D
[Nexus S Android Development] afzalarsalan:
Can any of you guys build a battery mod for BuglessPixel? I specifically am referring to the one with segmented bars above and below the number. Would really appreciate it even though wildestpixie seems to despise that type of stuff.:rolleyes:

Thanks for the tweaked ROM and script.

Is there a line I could add to enable TouchWake and set its time-out?

here you go:

Just make sure your kernel supports the Touch Wake mod, otherwise including the script is for naught.

Hope this helps! Cheers! :)

Much obliged! Using the included Matrix kernel so should work.

Just tested it, and it works like a charm. :thumbup:

I really liked the Trinity Kernels but for some reason my auto-rotate would not work properly. Anyone else have that issue? I was using BB 4-6-12 and T11. I switched to the Matr1x kernel and managed to fix that issue.

I had the auto-rotate issue,just a reboot and everything's fine now.I use the T132 ver..

Everytime after reboot, after I unlock my screen for the first time an alert pops up stating that the Gallery has stopped working. This happens every single time. However, after I open the Gallery it's works fine. And I never see it until next reboot.

This is a minor bug that I have been experiencing under the last 3 nightlies and including the 04 09 version. Wondering if it's just me?
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
Speaking of minor bugs, I did notice something peculiar using BB Pixel Edition. Every time I long press home to launch recent apps list, the list usually show Google Maps even if I haven't actually opened the app previously. Just wondering if any of you noticed something similar. Is this a bug or is this normal if you're using apps that needs access to your location?

[Nexus S Android Development] tycruickshank:
I've had this happen on other roms as well including the stock BB. I'm not sure how to fix it. The way I've dealt with it is to rename maps.apk in the system apps and reinstall it from the market. Or use auto starts app to disable it after startup.

After poking around some alternatives, air Kernel is back for v0.3. Along with an addition to the StartupScript for Touchwake.

I've actually been using the original (Low BigMem) Air 4.0 with BB Pixel Ed v0.2 a few days now. Fast and stable combination with deep idle off, ondemand+noop combo, and your init.d tweaks. Oh and I also applied v6 supercharger for some extra umph. Thanks again for a great ROM, WP! :D

Not the supercharger. Eek.
[Nexus S Android Development] apatal:
Oh please do share.... If it doesn't really do anything, or if it does more harm, I'd like to know. I'll be more than happy to forego applying it to v0.3.

[Nexus S Android Development] wildestpixel:
Supercharger won't play nice with my tweaks. Counteracts the good done.

0.3 is just an air service release. Just the product of loads of battery life tests. Air non bigmem is where its at.

to try out UV, i should do it through setcpu first right? then once i found the good setting edit the script? seems logical

what are average values to UV on this phone or is it pretty UVed?

I've recently been experiencing issues with the latest nightly 04092012 including some of the following bugs:

- Browser does not save app defaults. i.e. Opening a YouTube link from Browser will not remember to open it on YouTube next time around

- When receiving calls, sometimes I cannot hear the other party but they can hear me

- When receiving calls, sometimes I hear myself talking but not the other party

The last two bugs are a dealbreaker for me. And I know that it has something to do with this ROM as I recently flashed CM9 v6 for a few days and didn't experience anything like this. When I flashed my nandroid to my BB backup the problems came back.
[Nexus S Android Development] Bamdroid:
Never experienced any call problems..outside of calls from problematic people. :sly: The rom has been rock solid. Now this Pixie BB version is something new I'm testing and I'm not seeing the battery life regular BB was getting me and the only thing I've done is done a full wipe of everything and flashed rom.. outside of installing all of my apps I started from 75%-39%..in 5hr 37min. (While sleeping and with Wi-Fi on...) I would barely drop anything after 4 hours (sleeping/Wi-Fi on) on stock BB.
