Can't remember exactly when... At least the last few updates....... Maybe since 0.71??? Not a problem really, just an observation. the touch screen works so i can get around. I figured I'd give my hard buttons a break......

@pizzow3nd.... I realize the virtual buttons are in progress but the capacitive buttons have worked for ages... i only discovered that feature recently but i believe it's been around since before ics.

Phoned in.....
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
Sorry about that, I misread your post. Yeah, the capacitive buttons have been that way since this kernel was released.

Menu: down

Home: select

Back: back

Search: nada

It's kinda bugged me since the key bindings are in the same order as the virtual buttons on Glitch kernel. I vastly prefer Glitch's layout, but it didn't bother me enough to bring it up as he seemed pretty busy cramming in so many other features. I suppose now is a good time to bring it up though, considering it looks like we'll be getting the virtual buttons soon.

[Captivate Android Development] Wakamatsu:
I think it's always been this way. Certainly the last couple of versions.
[Captivate Android Development] Monfro:
Exactly: it is very good for phones that have problems with liveOC but whose gpu can be OCed without problems this way. My phone is one of those :)

It does not give better results in antutu benchmark, but it gives a smoother sensation on a lot of apps that rely on hardware acceleration.

I have also a Galaxy Tab P1000 and i confirm that in latest Devil kernel this function is working.

The only thing i noticed is that it does not stick after reboot (i use ram option 1, 391mb), but maybe i messed too much with NSTools and CC, since i wanted to test a lot of things.

EDIT

I confirm the option does not stick after a reboot.

I hope this great function to be included also in next releases

How do you get the screen refresh rate toggle to work? I looked in the sys/kernel/ folder and there is no refreshrate folder. The FPS cap is still 56 after toggling this settting in Command Center. I actually need this feature for a couple games in the FPSE emulator.

Learning and playing with Devil Kernel right now... What is Bluetooth kill?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
If I had to guess something to do with Didle? I would like to know as well.
[Captivate Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
you can use it, to kill bluetooth for top=off values with didle. it's not recommended, if you use bt regularly, because it requires a reboot to work again, and this uses more power than didle can save. it also could cause wifi issues (not for all users) until reactivating and rebooting.
[Captivate Android Development] melvinaury:
I try a lot of time and always all my settings are reset when I reboot. Ex. big mem, live oc, voltage, sio and smartassv2. Also I can't save the settings in NSTOOL app. With glitch I don't have any problem.:(
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Slim has the big mem rom patch by default. If you use Cm9 settings on your kernel video playback breaks somewhat. At least it did with me.

None of that should be a issue. Only Mem patch was not sticking befor and DerTeufel fixed that. I would recommend redownloading and reflash kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
here comes again a new test kernel.

no new features added, just bugfixing:

- fixed recovery (fix permissions)

- fixed init script

- fixed cpu spy issue with live_oc

- fixed/added back support for rom manger (reboot recovery)

Sorry if already discussed

After flashing .72 version, my internal sd card went under emmc and external 8gb card went under sdcard folder......
[Captivate Android Development] Time_Zone:
I hadn't experienced this, I was worried I might see something similar after setting up swap. I personally switch them in vold.fstab.

Emmc = embedded multi media card and not external as many people think.

Anyhow, check your /etc/vold.fstab and set according to how you like it. Some roms also might have a setting for use external sdcard as internal.

I like having Emmc as internal and sdcard as external because my class 10 card is faster at taking pictures.
[Captivate Android Development] takeoutttt:
Flash the latest kernel and it's running very sweet.
[Captivate Android Development] Wakamatsu:
Not really an issue since you can specify which card the camera apk saves to on most ROMs now.
[Captivate Android Development] rophiroth:
Hi, I still having on each reboot "android is updating" message and that also reset my minmax cpu of devilconfig. Im using simlyAOKP v6 and devil3_0.76. Could it be a rom related? something to do?
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
The updating message is normal for ics every time u flash another kernel it can reset your settings if your script is not holding its settings could be different settings in the new kernel, copy and paste the file somewhere else apply your

New settings and then use your new file
[Captivate Android Development] rophiroth:
Im not sure about what file you talk about, and what new setting have to change.
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
thought you have the settings script listed a few pages back, and the sound hack

has reset itself so I had to reset those values once I flashed the new kernel
[Captivate Android Development] rjc127:
Not sure if others are experiencing this but when I try to update from 0.71 to 0.76 - it continues to boot into recovery - when I reflash 0.71 it will boot normally. Any thoughts are appreciated.....
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
Also happened to me, I cleared dalvik cache and it flashed 76 without a problem

[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
Hard to say, but I doubt it. If you look at the pic near the end of the graph (where the battery starts to drain much faster), you can tell that my screen was off for most of the time. Not much need to swap when the phone is supposed to be idling. My battery was fine most of the day until that last hour or so when it dropped really quickly.

But then again, I'm no dev and I cant really say either way. If it continues to happen, I'll grab a logcat and post it up.

CM9 has already added this function some days ago. S90Call_VOL is not needed anymore with latest CM9.
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
I've noticed this a bit in the past update or two, and i think it may have to do with the amount of space the swap file is using. After noticing a bit of lag switching between apps (my launcher got killed for the first time since enabling swap :O ) , i checked to see how much of the swap partition is being used and, well, wow.

Notice that's ~225mb being used in the partition, way more than was being used when I was praising swap as a magical feature (which was hovering around ~80-100mb of used space) . It seems to run a lot smoother when it's not using so much space. Is there a way to limit the amount of space it uses other than shrinking the partition, or at least a command I can run from time to time to clear it out?

Edit: this is just a guess, and could be completely and totally wrong.

About PC2SC file transfer speed:

I found that PC2SD file transfer speed is relevant to "Fsync Control" method.

Fsync Control:0= disable, transfer speed is about 8.5MB/s.

Fsync Control:1=enable, transfer speed is about 3MB/s.

Tested on Devil3 0.76 / CM9 0615
[Captivate Android Development] DerTeufel1980:
Interesting, but anyway, it should be also fast, with fsync enabled, because cm9 stock kernel has no option to disable it, and me was told, this kernel has faster transfer speed. Right?

Also, is using mtp mode faster?

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9000 mit Tapatalk 2
[Captivate Android Development] dongfangri:
According to my test, previous CM9 stock kernel doesn't have a fast file transfer speed.

I will test the new CM9 kernel while it is available, there is no nightly CM9 build today(0616).
[Captivate Android Development] RootTheMachine:
Agreed, the more you use, the slower it gets. At one point I was using around 400MB. It got brutally slow.

On a side note, CM is no longer a skateboarding robot.

Thanks for the tip - I had to clear dalvik cache and the cache partition to get .76 to stick. However once running .76 and returning to recovery when I try to reboot from recovery I have to clear both caches first or it will continue to reboot into recovery strange....

But what I tried with Devil works good, I don't see any problems right now. 720p recording/playing with HW works, Touchwake, Vibro intencity, OC.. Even compass and WiFi tethering which doesn't work on Semaphore, works on Devil. And even some apps now works without issues which happened on other kernels (for instance, I had issues with Ebookdroid on all kernels which I've tried, but not here)!

Just amazing.

It would be totally cool to have increased voice volume feature from Glitch but I can tell I'm already happy even without it.

[Captivate Android Development] brianray14:
You'll need your computer to repartition your sd card. A simple explanation of swap is to download minitool partition on your computer, place your sd card in a reader, copy contents to desktop, open minitool. Find your sd card listed, right click and select delete. Then right click, hit create, select primary and fat32 leave some unallocated space (around 250mb via the slider), select done. Select create, primary, then Linux swap, hit done. Hit "Apply" in upper left hand corner. Now you've created your partition..Move your contents back to your sd card, plop it back into your phone. Last step is to find and flash bitblaster.zip in recovery. Read the op and follow the links for more in depth instruction

Edit: enable "swap" in either command center or the new devil kernel config app (which rocks BTW)
