That will be way difficult with our touch recovery in place.

Anyway I have corrected the problem by printing long filenames in 2 rows, in the same button.

But I will add this in next release, as I don't want fast forward release.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] silentvisitor:
THANK YOU SO MUCH for Full Touch Recovery :)

Could you plz provide flashable zip ?

Thanks again :)

Review after using up till now from the time of release :

The phone is snap pier than the previous version of the kernal;oc works just fine;experienced a lag in interactive governor for some reason bit I think my claim should be seconded by others with the kernal...cannot say much about battery life cause I think I need a day or two to decide after calibrating again etc...

The touch recovery is nice;easier but like the others I d prefer u do something about the whole file name being visible cause u know it gets a little irritating :)

On the down side sometimes I notice the wifi not to connect at all even though there is a network present;I never faced it with dhiru s stock kernal....I want someone to confirm this finding...

Thanks for ur work....looking forward to use the updates and hopefully u can back port some stuff from 3.0 kernal at least till hillbeast gets his device and we all have something to play with longer :D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] alexecus:
As always, another good release from UC Team...

I have been a user of your kernel since the early version... Very glad that I can still use it in CM9... One of the best kernel ever, keep it up UC Team...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] TheFrankenstain:
Thank you for new kernel, i try v15 now :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Wahaha123:
this works for ics mods right?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] falex007:
WOW!!! It's very good kernel! I installed it with MIUI 4 beta 5. And I see that it leave many free RAM (about 210M), even with using Go launcher Ex. Also it's fast enough and uses battery carefully too. I'm using lionheart governer and set frequency too 300-1300Mhz.

@napstar

Issue 1 (Cwm Recovery):

I am not able to view any file on the root of the external SD card.

But files under folders are visible.

Issue 2 (Cwm Recovery):

When using soft keys for moving up and down the folder list, some times the folder named get garbled.

i.e. Mixing of the previous name on the tab and the new name that is displayed.

Issue 3 (Kernel):

Not able to use mobile odin. Does not boot.

Request:

Would it be possible to release a kernel version without touch.

Feel @home using the normal recovery.

Hope I am not asking too much.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] JoyMoro:
Hi

I flashed using mobile odin.when I boot , It was looping on flash screen (the very first screen with galaxy sl logo ).

Twice I tried to flash same. Even cleared catches.

M on CM9 Alfa 6 .evening I will try for Alfa 7

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] voit:
Napstar , could we hope for such optimization?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
Issue1: Did you try both ext and internal sdcard?

Issue2: By soft keys, did you meant on screen keys/device soft keys? Can you get snapshot of your phone when suh happens?

Issue3: Have not tested with odin installation. I use heimdall, as I use linux. Try mobileOdin.

Request: I will provide an option to enter older recovery or touch recovery when you boot into recovery. SOmething like UC-menu.

I am also trying to build an kernel_mod_update.zip, which will help to update ramdisk or kernel. But I am facing problem to lzma compress in Android/ARM environment.

Try mobile odin / heimdall.

I will include that toolchain and wil try to compile our kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ganeshbiyer:
Issue1: Did you try both ext and internal sdcard? Yes

Issue3: Have not tested with odin installation. I use heimdall, as I use linux. Try mobileOdin. Usually I use heimdall, but was at office, so tried mobile odin, but was unsuccessful. used Odin (Pc) to flash the kernel V15.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] hemantkarandikar:
I am CM9 Alpha 6. Flashing by Mobile Odin caused loop. Had to flash from PC ODIN. Worked beautifully.

I too will prefer normal recovery -touch recovery is 'delicate'. But this is not a big problem.

Have used this kernel for 12 hours today. Looks good.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] pabreu:
GPS didn't work for me in v15. Governor : lionheart

Max : 1000, min : 300

When using maps, the gps icon keeps on flashing. Tried gps aids and no satellites are visible.

Flashed back the stock cm9 kernel and gps was working again. Thanks for the stock cm9 kernel link.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
Successfuly created that kernel_nodifier_update.zip.

:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
I will check into it.

Thanx!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ynshetty:
Could u also check into what's making mobile Odin not able to flash this???I confirm with ganesh on this issue...thought I was not doing it right (download)so didn't complain and flashed using the computer....or a flashable zip also would be great for easier flashing

Thanks

Reverting/chnaging between touch and non-touch CWM recovery

On request by few of our fellow UCK-GSLi-v15 users, I have created this update zip which will revert back your touch CWM recovery to older non-touch recovery.

[Description of files]

olderCWM_CM9A6_UCKGSLiv15.zip: Helps you revert back to older CWM (non-touch) recovery

newCWM_CM9A6_UCKGSLiv15.zip: Helps you Re-revert back to newer full-touch CWM recovery (developed by me) :cool:

[Installation]

Use CWM recovery to flash these zip files.

[Note]

Note that these update zip will work only with devices which are running on UCKernel-GSLi-v15 and none other.

The newCWM_CM9A6_UCKGSLiv15.zip has updated touch based CWM recovery with fix for longer filenames. So you can use this to update yours.

It took me whole two days to figure out how to re-compress updated ramdisk in lzma format as there are no lzma binaries available (with compression capability, not even busybox version). And still the one used here has dynamic system dependencies. So, it could cause problem on few devices.

[For Developers] (About AnyKernelRamdisk updater zip)

The update zip used here is a flexible version of AnyKernel update zip developed by Koush.

Using this you can update your kernel without changing ramdisk and vice-versa.

I will be still modifying it for completing replacing new ramdisk for any release.

Note that, the binaries present in /Kernel directory are compiled by me with few modifications to the sources for unpackbootimg.

And lzma binary is build using 7zip-SDK sources from here (required by our kernel release, as they are lzma compressed.)

I guess, this lzma binary requires system libraries for its running. (Don't know why). So it might work with some ROM and not others.

Go through all scripts and let me know any queries or suggestions.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
I have not downloaded it yet. I will download it tomorrow.

I hope there should not many differences in its ramdisk compared to older one.

So, you can try it out and let me know.

But by looking at his commits, it looks like it will be less snappier than his stock kernel as he has decreased SGX power latency to an extremely low levels. I will reduce that in next release in a bit conservative manner. ;)

P.S. If someone can post his boot.img right now (in next one hour), I will check through it and will let you guys know if it is compatible.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spea94:
Thanks for your reply Napstar. Here is the boot.img for aplha 7
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
There are some changes in init.rc file and build.prop

I will add essential changes and will release another update.zip for the same.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ganeshbiyer:
@Napstar

The Old CWM recovery is fine. Thanks.:)

Btw, did you get a chance to check, why the files on the root are not shown by touch CWM recovery. Its the same for Internal and External Sd.

No problem though with the old recovery though.

I tested the new touch recovery patch too. The multiline filenames in touch recovery is very nice, and pretty much solves the problem with long file names.

As for the kernel itself, been using it on CM9 V7. No issues as yet.:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
Now I see, what you are talking about.

In earlier post I thought you are refering to all folders and files from root directory of sdcard, but it is just files that you are worried about.

Just a quick question, how many files are there in root of your sdcard? Is there just one zip file?

Because currently there is a bug in this CWM. That when there is only one file or folder left out (which requires a new page to show) and current display has filles with all menu buttons (in 80% of screen size), then it wont show that item. Need to fix that.

Note that in CWM you dont get to see other files except zip one. You must be aware of that.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ganeshbiyer:
You are right though. I was having only one zip file. I put multiple zips, it shows them. Thanks for info.

The Issue is not a deterrent in any way. Fix it in your own sweet time.

So it seems though all is fine now. thanks for prompt replies man.:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ganeshbiyer:
Another Issue.

When you use the CWM app to take backup, it asks where to save the backup and shows the availabe size in mb.

But what i found was that it shows the same size.

Dosen't hamper taking backup though.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
Its because of the app's hardcoded locations.

It lloks for available size in,

/sdcard as external sd card

/sdcard/external_sd as internal sdcard

Instead it should be checking with mount points directly, and may be vold.fstab.

Now, that in this CM9 ROM we have /emmc/ as internal sd card.

A quick validatory check on this will be,

adb shell
mount -s /emmc /sdcard/external_sd

Now retry with CWM app. It should be corrected.

I will add this symlink in init script, may be in next release.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ganeshbiyer:
Okay.

Cm9 is not able to mount /sdcard/external_sd

So it is /emmc and /sdcard for now.

---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:27 PM ----------

In CWM Touch Recovery, it shows both sdcard and emmc mounted.

But in the case with Normal Recovery, there is an option to connect sdcard computer via usb to access the data.

This option is missing in Touch Recovery or am i missing some thing.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
I guess you are talking about USB mounting sdcard. right?

It has become invisible like the last zip file from your sdcard root. ;)

If you use onscreen buttons to scroll down below the last visible button, selection will disappear. Now press select button and you should have sdcard mounted.

[I did not check these directions right now, but they should be correct.]
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] marshygeek:
can i use uc kernels in miui or cm9 roms? :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
I will create one update zip for inserting just the kernel, without disturbing ramdisk in near future.

But for that I will need to check their working possibility on my device.

And for that I will have to download all custom ROMs available and flash them all individually, of course. :P

Looks like a lot of work. Might do it on this weekend if I am not going anywhere outstation for my personal work.

But hey, this is kernel is for CM9 (CM9 Alpha6 by dhiru1602), isnt it? :D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] marshygeek:
Oh sorry wrong thread. :D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Skander1998:
Waiting for your Alpha7 update, would be great if it works with RemICS 2.1 (Alpha7).
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] machotecba:
Ill using this kernel in RemICS V 2.1 and works fine and smooth.... But only one think... take a lot to boot the phone because of the menu at the start....

Great works guys!!! Excelent!!!.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Skander1998:
It is not 100% compatible since some changes on Alpha7 are kernel related, so he needs to apply them.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
It is compatible, just that the changes made that are related to the kernel will not be there after you flash this kernel

Cheers:)

Sent from my GT-i9003 powered by Stable and Smooth CyanogenMod 9!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Skander1998:
That's the point, you can't really call it compatible with Alpha7 since it basically stops you from using most of the changes in Alpha7, why upgrade then? stay in Alpha6 if you want this, same thing.

So.. Nope, not useful for Alpha7
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
Actually there are no changes in ramdisk. I was a bit overworked that night, so compared it with a wrong file. (You can check the time stamp of the post if you want, ;))

This modification is not going to stop any hardware/software working, as you can see in the quote that it is just the SGX frequency rate is increased.

So, its not incompatible, you can try it. ;)

I am still working on one issue related to smartreflex, which is on the verge of finishing. So delayed the release.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Skander1998:
Take your time ;)

I'll wait till you add all the changes and fixes, i am not in rush :)

Good work and good luck :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] chinmay_7d:
This one makes CM9 A7 highly unstable and unresponsive.. Laggy everywhere and also kills applications automatically even if there is no limit set in the dev settings.

P.S. i know this kernel is not fully compatible with A7. Just reporting bugs so that they can be resolved.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27268232&postcount=81

I have used a modified version of the same script/ update.zip for updating recovery without changing kernel. In the sameway you can use it to replace kernel but not the ramdisk. Check out scripts from kernel directory.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] OrbitalDroid:
Anyone tried it with alpha 8 ?

Cause it was horrible with alpha7...

But it was very good with alpha6
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:

Thank you Napstar and uc teams. I love the way CPU speed step working. From 120mhz to 1ghz. It's 120mhz having wifi bug or not?

I've got audio stutter when flash newest kernel v16. Original dhiru's kernel not face this issue

(Edit) I only face stutter issue when set CPU governor to Scary and i/o to sio
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
Wi-Fi bug about non using 120 & 200mhz is still there.

The audio stutter is becoz in standby mode or becoz of few strict governors device will remain at very low frequency state.

Is it safe for all cm9 based ROM or is it only for cm9a8?

Does it improve screen responsiveness? This is the most troubling thing i find in the otherwise excellent ROM.... I hope this great kernel will also improve ui performance.... Has any one with remICS tried it?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jesrani:
I tried on RemICS and all it does is give me a garbled screen on boot. Now don't know how to revert back, am trying. I think it will go into revovery but not boot

@Napster, can you tell me why I am having this problem. A few months back I had installed the initial MIUI and then reverted back to GB. Ever since I could not use any of your kernels after v8, all would give me a garbled boot screen and get stuck.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
Will do that as soon as I reach my office, I am in train.

it is only for CM9A8 as of now. Will release one update.zip which you guys can use for all ics rom.

you will have to flash original boot.img from remics. Extract it from its install zip. Rename it as normal boot.img and pack it as tar file on a Linux machine. And flash using Odin.

And regarding my kernel releases you should try them only on supported rom

Sent from my GT-I9003
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jesrani:
Thanks. I flashed RemICS again and all is fine. For this kernel, maybe it is not supported for RemICS but I had tried your previous GB kernels on supported ROMS only and they just won't work. I was able to get only upto v8 or v9 working. Rest all versions were giving the garbled boot.

Can I extract boot.img from the ROM zip and replace in your kernel tar file using 7-zip on windows and flash this to get default kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Napstar:
You will have to rename boot.img to normalboot.img and replace one from any of my tar file.

Regarding windows 7zip, I don't know because Linux does not welcome windows encrypting, at least for text files.
