[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
News update!

New Kernels released! 8.17 and 9.17 ( STOCK/CM/AOKP and CM/AOKP ONLY!)

we have added more then 550 commits to this version! all from 3.10.Y kernel!

amount of code is:

959 files changed, 40623 insertions(+), 61044 deletions(-)

officially we now have kernel 3.7.Y+ and parts from 3.10.y

for now i cant declare it above 3.4.y, as some ROMS will not boot or stuck without reason after boot, tested by me and alucard! same result.

so we stay with version number 3.1.0 for now, its just version :)

but it's checked by ROM code and something is changed, no idea what.

Change Log:

INITRAMFS:

*New nightmare gov configuration by Alucard and descriptions fix.

*Fixed start of UKSM, now works as should and save power when screen is OFF.

*Tuned Random cache config, to boost on wakeup, set to normal on wake mode, and set to low on sleep to save battery! (it's the Entropy tweak)

*Reworked all STweaks XML file and reduced 300 lines to speed up a little STweaks load and fixed bugs in XML.

*Pulled new updates from latest CM-Kernel for ROM INIT and ADB.

*Set min boot cpu speed to 800Mhz to allow heat reduce.

*Removed BFQ I/O gov, it's not supported any more, after merges with 3.10.y source. (it's was made for spinning disks, and we have SSD, so it's was waste of RAM)

*Fixed the DATA/CACHE clean function, now it's will clean the partition without killing it :), still this is dangerous function, it's may force you to reinstall ROM or reinstall lost apps that found to be damaged and broken.

*Fixed some small typos and partition mounting bugs.

Kernel:

*Pulled updates for RCU, CPU, ARM, CORE, MEM, IRQ, KERNEL, FS, SECURITY, IDR, TIME, CGROUPS, BLUETOOTH

from 3.10.y kernel! this was the HUGE updates pull, see git for all info! there are 15 pages from 9.16 to 9.17 :)

*Alucard fixed and tuned Nightmare gov, now it's working very good and stable!

*Voku added lowmemkill changes and updated ROW I/O gov.

*I have reverted all NOTE8 MALI video updates! and made SYNC with original maliV2 source code + all the cool stuff by GM and CM.

+ full sync with latest UMP(memory processor) code from latest MaliV4 driver source!

In kernel 9.17 we now have only MALIV2 driver! ROMS with old video driver no longer supported! use 8.17 for STOCK ROMS and for old JB ROMS.

ICS(4.0.x) ROMS are not supported long time now, so dont try.

8.17 Kernel received all updates from 9.17 for video driver, only to CM/AOKP driver, STOCK ROM video driver remain as was.

*I have set CPU cut to 800Mhz when TEMP is 70C and release to MAX when TEMP is below 65C now when we stress the device it's HOT but has much more power then before!

(no power without heat! so dont cry about it) if you dont OC then phone is cool.

*Voku added patch to 3.0.77 from main stream.(updates are from 3.10.y= main stream!)

*Tuned ZZMOOVE CPU Gov.

*Updated Android Binder, Logger and Ashmem from 3.10.y to MAX possible! saved 1.5MB total ram and fixed a lot of bugs!

this is mega test kernel! but it's stable and working good!

also battery is saved not bad, and performance at top (when not HOT(above 70c then cpu at 800Mhz! but cool down and kick again!)

so have fun and report.

Big Thanks to Alucard for testing with me all that time chatting online!

and thanks to Voku for helping with new code updates!

EDIT!!!

BUG REPORTS!:

BT not working with STOCK ROMS!

STweaks profiles not saved, or broken

MX224E touch screens not tuned.

Dorimanx: all fixed in X.18 build! :)
