It's the feeling I get. I don't know if it happens with any kernel, I'm very monogamous kernel-wise. :p

I'm still on v6.2. Can't ever really get the time to update my rom + kernel lately.
[Nexus S Android Development] invd:
For me BLN works also without any problems (I use NSTools for configuration), like the whole kernel does - v6.6, 1096/100, smartassv2 with paranoidandroid on i9023. For me scrolling etc. is butter smooth.
[Nexus S Android Development] _yaz_:
no, you're not alone. some pages back i already mentioned it. bln works fine quite for awhile but then stops. first it just doesn't keep the notification for the time i set but afterwards does not even react for the events. re-initiation by a script or by nstools reheals but only temporarily. i experience this problem all along the complete 6.x line.
[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
Ah thank you yaz! Sometimes I think I might have broke something, but it's good to get a confirmation someone else has the same issue.

Edit: Bedalus, do you think it's possible yaz and I get a version with normal BLN to test if it's your mods that broke it?
[Nexus S Android Development] kwibis:
Yeah I've been planning to adjust my sig. I'm running latest rasbeanjelly. My battery is since it released, december 2010. It holds 4087 mV.

[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
Huh, really?! Only 100mV less after 2 years? That's great!!! :)

I think it's just calibration being a bit off with mine, it jumped from 2% to 8%, then from 4 to 9... I've let it power down by itself and now it's charging powered off. Maybe that's all it needs, a bit recalibration.
[Nexus S Android Development] aladin6:
You can forget about BLN and all its problems by installing that awesome application: NoLed ;).

I'm using it for a long time and that's perfect ;).

On behalf of everyone here we would like to say we are sorry for your loss of Android. :p

Enjoy the OS that hasn't changed EVER and is about as bland as stale bread.

Stale bread I think they will get on the next release.
[Nexus S Android Development] :
Same reply to you here as in the 4G thread

Here you go: http://d-h.st/ADc (Will work with CM and Slim Bean, and any other ROM with the custom IOControl / VSYNC tweak from CM)

(4G only)

-updated to match the AOKP ramdisk but with added init.d support and MTP

-some config changes, hopefully improve speed and stability

-better GPU power management code, more reliable, more efficient. (I think... :p)

Thanks for your help, you saved me a lot of time and hassle. Of course, check the GPS works properly before you thank me. This is a one off, I'm still taking at least the weekend off without building.
[Nexus S Android Development] CrackerTeg:
Now THAT'S something to look forward to.

That's not a solution at all. We have a backlight that consumes almost no power, might as well use it.
[Nexus S Android Development] JokerAce:
Hey Bedalus, I just sold my Nexus S away! Waiting for a new SGS2 to come my way, really needed a 1GB Ram phone. 512MB is too little for me!

I would like to thank you so far for your kind and non-abusive attitude to old and new users of your kernel. Your effortless hours spent on benchmarking and principle to be fair and consistent in results was knowledge shared which saves people their time in conducting one themselves. Your results were really a fun and interesting read.

Your daring and perseverance attitude to leap into the kernel world is inspiring, and you created a tutorial too! I am sure you have kick a few butts to start their own adventure in kernel modding/creation! Keep on inspiring, in forum and in real life!!

I have walked with you since you started till today, and I will still continue to visit here whenever I can to provide aid and answers to questions new and old alike. You motivated me to do this :highfive:

P.S., even though my sig reads "too many awesome kernel to choose from", I actually stick with your kernel since v4. Look at the number of version I stick with. Haha.

All in all, continue to aspire and inspire others! Perhaps one day we will meet again on the next Nexus.. 4 or 5, let fate decide. :highfive:
[Nexus S Android Development] :
oops, double post. Slow forum at the moment!
[Nexus S Android Development] :
Many thanks to JokerAce, who has been very helpful to me and other users in the thread, and the forum. How nice to get a personal goodbye, but yes... perhaps see you again in the future! (Not the near future... I'm driving the Nexus S until the wheels fall off. :p) Enjoy your new device!

Hoe come people make such strange phone decisions? First I read about the Iphone 5 and now the sgs2. Why not get the Nexus 4 for a better price?

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] waterface:
I like that. As I read about the Nexus 4 likely going to cost almost twice as much as in the Play Store in countries like mine, I can only stand up and clap my hands. Hope we'll get 4.2 soon. Cheers to you, bedalus.

(small not detailed report- downgraded to 6.2, feels snappier than 6.6 here, and more stable too.)
[Nexus S Android Development] dinuvali:
How quaint...
[Nexus S Android Development] stojshic:
Because N4 will be available for that price only in countries that support Play Store. In here, if you want to take GN from the operator, you still need to pay around 450e! :/ So, N4 will be on my mind in about year and a half, for now, I'm thinking of buying GN (second-hand)...
[Nexus S Android Development] alen1901:
Better buy s3. Dunno how is in your countries but in mine s2 is the cheapest, and s3, gnex are just a tiny bit more expensive. Being gnex and s3 roughly the same price, so i would go with s3. :p (this prices are from njuskalo.hr, dunno how to say it on english, adverts maybe. You get new phone for much less money. People buy it on contract and then sell for lower price.)

Sorry for off topic. :)

[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
Bah, just wait a bit. I'm in such a country too, they're announcing the N4 for 550€ instead of the 350€ over the border in Germany. But prices will fall, rapidly. If they want to sell some, that is.

I hope some people still run at 1GHz. (I do unless Asphalt 7ing)

Those of you still running at 1GHz, if you get reboots, please try and grab me a last_kmsg. Don't forgot to state your device and ROM.

Seems like there's suddenly a lot less bug reporting. I want to encourage more. Or if your device was rebooting but now seems stable, let me know too. Maybe I nailed a significant bug recently?
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
I'm playing NfS most wanted lagfree @1000. ^^

Seems stable. In the past weeks I had two reboots, the first log I posted, the second I forgot because I was in the middle of replacing keyboard with 4.2-version. This MAY be the point, because both times I was typing when it happened (SMS, tapatalk - both times using stock-keyb).

In short:

Stable system for at least a month, rather more. Now I'm waiting if typing produces another crash.
[Nexus S Android Development] :
Cool. It's something like five times now I've seen reports of reboots when typing, or just as the keyboard appears.

I use swype. Is the 4.2 keyboard similar, does it work well?
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
Yeah, it's swell. Swype-feature is working great, even with two languages. Though I have to say I'm still warming up to it, never really liked Swype. Google's version is not as feature-rich, but it does the job just fine. Definitely give a try.
[Nexus S Android Development] treesurf:
I'm still on 6.2.1, running at 1 GHz. I've never had a reboot so I can't report any bugs! :cyclops:

[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
Actually Bedalus, thanks to you and CM I currently don't see the point in buying a new phone. The last 2 or 3 nightlies plus marmite v6.6 are just so damn smooth... :what:

Just had a little youtube-session and while yt never caused a crash, it was always a littlebit laggy, slow, felt like it's gonna crash any second now. That's gone.

But that's just an example, my phone has never been so fast before. (And I've always had a fast one ^^)

I did post a last_kmsg a few posts back but so far on 6.6, it's been good. I do overclock but that top frequency rarely gets touched. Been pretty stable on latest rasbeanjelly and latest marmite.
[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
I got a reboot yesterday. Was transfering stuff from my phone to my pc, has usb mounted. After I was done I forgot to disable usb storage and pulled the cord and clicked on camera by error while it was checking the sd on the phone. Got a soft reboot there, but I attributed all this to my awesomely smart move. :p

I'll update my rom and kernel now I think.
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
You better... Oo That's one year old compared to last nightlies. (speaking in CM-years) :silly:

I run Marmite at stock setting, don't really feel any need for OC :P

I recently flashed new versions of both ROM (RasBeanJelly) and your kernel (boy, it's really hard to keep up with your releases XD).

I didn't had any "hard" reboot, but I experienced seldom "soft" reboot (ROM reloading itself). Sometimes I got my screen going completely black but the status bar :D, and I have to pull out batter for resetting the phone.

I don't know if those were kernel's or ROM's fault, nor how to provide userful information, so I gave up reporting. :P

BLX

*Noob question alert*

If BLX is set to 100%, does the battery get charged over the maximum allowed by a stock setting? In other words, is it a cosmetic 100%? I remember battery normally gets charged to 97% more or less.

Accept my apologies for asking here, I don't mean to take advantage of this thread!
[Nexus S Android Development] kwibis:
It's purely a cosmetic fix.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
Speaking of BLX:

Looks like 100% isn't working with CM. Did my recalibration, but still the same. Oh, and I think voltage ain't that bad for a 13 month old battery, hehe. :cool:
[Nexus S Android Development] CrackerTeg:
It doesn't work on rasbeanjelly or blackbean either but it's cosmetic so doesn't really bug me. Highest I've seen it go on both was 98.

For me it works on RasBeanjelly. I mentioned earlier that my battery was 4087 but it is 4187

[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
Of course it's cosmetic. But good to know it's not just me and my batt is fine, that's why I asked in the first place.

It trickled up to 99% in the meantime and should show 100% eventually. It's just that in the past it charged until 100%, now it's stock-behaviour.

Doesn't matter, BLX was made for something different anyway.
[Nexus S Android Development] alen1901:
I set blx to 90% and my voltage is lower when charged(preserving battery live in term of live cycles), and personally i dont give a **** about mV. If you know how to use phone/battery, you wont screw it that easyly. :D

It means it's the cm compatible version. Flash it. This thing is good. Just needs more testing to make sure nothing got broken.

No point charging over to 100% as it is really cosmetic in nature. The best is to use BLX @ 90%.
[Nexus S Android Development] deetailed:
Just checking, because I searched the thread but didn't find the answer:

Is "Stock OTA kernel" strictly for 100% stock from google with no modifications whatsoever? If there's a stock-based rom but zipaligned and deodexed, does it still use stock OTA kernel, or that's enough to warrant using "all other kernel"?
[Nexus S Android Development] :
I've not heard anyone complain of high system server use with auto rotation on.

Stock means, its a googles ota ROM but it can be rooted, deodexed, zipaligned, with some extra apps or few mods.

Uptime 15:45h and counting. It's stable, nothing appears to be broken. Very snappy, but you know that yourself already. I say give it a go and try to let all participate. :thumbup: :)

PS:

Never thought I'd see the day where you'd say CM did something good. :p

There's been a bug on 4.0.3, but it's been solved with 4.0.4. The mentioned patch is pretty old, guess why. But of course, polling of rotation sensor puts a little additional strain on system, how else could it work if not checking it? But that's not a bug.

But that doen't mean that is not true, for me is a true fact at least on CM rom nightly-20121102 with CM Kernel and Marmite kernel v6.6, i have not tested with other kernels.

you can see the pictures

Pic1: CM Kernel with orientation ON

Pic2: CM Kernel with orientation OFF

Pic3: CM Kernel with orientation OFF

Pic4: Marmite Kernel with orientation ON

Pic6: Marmite Kernel with orientation OFF
[Nexus S Android Development] :
Okay, that seems quite persuasive. I'll build a CM and a Non CM version for people to test.

Edit: actually, no I won't... the patch makes it impossible to play Asphalt 7. The car hardly turns. I think the best solution is to put a toggle for orientation into your notification area and turn it on when you need it.
[Nexus S Android Development] mpjoe2000:
I agree, it seems there's only a workaround solution for now. Temple Run seems a little bit smoother with orientation OFF, and for the way i'm using my phone i don't really need orientation ON. Now, I will gain a little extra battery performance with screen on :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus S Android Development] Blackcrx:
I had that android os battery drain before. It usually happens after a fresh rom install. I usually just wait it out, usually goes away after the first or second charge cycle. That or just reboot your phone.

You can also check the battery usage and look at the awake time vs screen time. In theory they should be very close. If awake time is much greater I do a reboot

For me android os and cell standby is usually less than 15%

TESTING RELEASE:

v1.4_test http://d-h.st/UOt

-Possibly unstable, please try to collect last_kmsg

-Includes new 'performance DI': When Deep Idle state is called, the governor switches to performance to save CPU cycles

-DI fixed at 800MHz for stability

-thalamus' DI spinlock patch

-Mathematically sensible smartassV2 tunable settings to save CPU cycles (working well)

[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
You're getting me confused with all those test-versions... :p

So, this public test is basically the same as the last closed beta, just with didle@800 instead of 400, right? :confused:
[Nexus S Android Development] :
Right.

The only reason i can't release at 400mhz is because every SOD i get is never accompanied by a last_kmsg. So I'm assuming 400 is the problem... but it's still a hazy issue. I'll personally persevere with 400 but I'm still keeping that one to the private testers until i get at least one last_kmsg. There's no point in a general testing release if there's no hope of useful feedback.
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:

[Nexus S Android Development] Rantanplan1980:
Funny, I always thought the random reboots I get with some kernels were caused by overclocking to 1200. But it doesn't happen with your kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
Noticed one drawback of MTP:

Hidden folders (".example") don't show up on PC. Same goes for the contents of folders with .nomedia, they appear empty.

No big deal, but keep it in mind. :) Either access this data via mass storage or via file explorer on your phone.

EDIT:

Same goes for certain filetypes, it seems. Just copied a last_kmsg to sd - didn't show up. Renamed it to last_kmsg.txt - still not showing up.

[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
Guess I should write things like "doesn't happen on my phone" more often - it prompts stuff to go wrong. :D

Phone just rebooted on me while surfing the net.

Got a last_kmsg - Bedalus, you interested? It's no SoD, but something that didn't happen in a very long time...

Yes, I am on that kernel-version. But no, i never turned everything off.

But I can do this later in the gym, i don't need to be reached during that. Guess listening to music is not allowed in this test?
