Full format will make it ignore the errors. If new ones seem to appear then it's on its way to failing, so I'd backup important stuff.
[Nexus S Android Development] :
I wish more developers would pop in from time to time. That was a nicely balanced perspective.

I think most people here know that I'm just sharing a personal project. What grabs me is how willing people are to be Guinea pigs for the test releases. With the huge amount of feedback I'm constantly investigating possibilities and learning new code all the time. I think most people would agree that the kernel is working very nicely and has the right features, and minimum bloat. I think I've solved the reboot issue by trial and error, but due to my haphazard approach I'm still not sure what exactly I did that fixed it. I think bigmem, but polobunny disagrees!

Anyway, the plan is.... Wait and see. It's a bit of a boring plan, but I've yet to see a kernel panic or random reboot in this release.

Next release I suppose I should bring back bigmem as the only change to confirm. It'll be hard to limit myself to that, but I'll have to, otherwise it's not scientific, and I definitely don't ever want to be in a position again where I introduce a bug and am unable to say when it happened.
[Nexus S Android Development] BenHeng:
No problem z with BLX or 2g/3g togle. BLN seems to be OK.

BLD sometimes fails, but re enable itself quickly since 6.7.2 ( if my brain is still operational )

[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
I don't disagree about bigmem, but if you didn't disable it for vCM you linked me to (shows 407mb), then I don't believe it was that because I'm doing really good so far. BLN hasn't died on me either so here's for something else that works right. Any other dodgy commit that you merged? I'll stay on this version forever if I have to, because this is the best version I have tried so far. Thanks a bunch for that, trial and error or not. ;)

96 hours, who said I was asking too much of my rom?
[Nexus S Android Development] knzo:
I have nothing against trial and error, it's an epistemologically valid way of producing knowledge. The only thing is that it's like you said, you must not only prove that A => B, but also ~A => ~B.

Heck, if it depended on me there'd be more t-tests and ANOVAs in this goddamn forum to back up some assertions. Numbers will always be stronger than words. In terms of credibility I rate it like this: numbers > theoretical grounding > perception/experience. So yeah, whenever I read: "IT'S ZOMGFAST NOW, PRAISED BE BFQv5 with LOLHEURISTICS", my bull**** radar suspicion goes up. As for theory you need credentials, work experience and preferably a PhD. Numbers on the other hand can be produced by anyone as long as it's scientific.

[Nexus S Android Development] waterface:
6.7.3 non-CM and latest rasbeanjelly here, I report that 2G/3G switch works as it should BUT my data connection deactivates itself when screen is off. As soon as I wake the device I see the data icon come back and the signal bars turn back to blue, eventually followed by push notifications from data dependant apps. Anyone else noticed the same behaviour? I'm flashing a different kernel now to see if it's ROM related.

After 34 hours I flashed back to 6.7 and can confirm this on 6.7.3:

- mobile data is off during standby

- performance went down, looks like hw-acceleration isn't working properly (scrolling in opera, animation not smooth on orientation-change). Also opening apps, app-switcher - just not as crisp as on v6.7.
[Nexus S Android Development] invd:
I did the same thing and can confirm this. (9023)

Bedalus i tested new version for alarm and it works now, but it might be coinsidence. Wait other reports. I will test data when i can. But that test version again have stutters when scrolling xda. I will see when it settles down little bit with cache wipe and fix perms.

EDIT: data is not turning off while screen off, but i didnt have that problem before

[Nexus S Android Development] ScOULaris:
I'm on 6.7.3_CM, CM10 on my i9020a Nexus S, and I haven't experienced the mobile data turning off during standby. My alarm also seems to work, and performance is just as good as it was in 6.7 Maybe I'm just lucky?

The only thing that seems like a regression is that my GPS locked much faster when I was on 6.7, but that could just be other environmental variables at play.

Looking through the last pages, I'd suggest you go back to v6.7 and start working from there. Minus the 4mb RAM, if you must, but it seems to have been the last "good one" for the majority here. :)

[Nexus S Android Development] VerminX:
I'm running oct28 version of rasjelly along with 6.7.3 kernel with 50+ h of uptime on a 9020t

I don't use the alarm so I can't comment. I don't know how to test if data disconnects while the phone is sleeping, but I didn't notice anything out of ordinary.

My phone can deal with 1200 overclock quite well with the following voltages:

1200 at 1375mv

Int 1200 at 1150mv

Thanks for a great kernel!

[Nexus S Android Development] simms22:
youll know if youre losing data when the phone is sleeping. when you wake up the device, youll either have no signal for a second or the bars will be gray instead of blue.
[Nexus S Android Development] sgtkid12:

[Nexus S Android Development] sgtkid12:
I am not able to recreate the reboot. I tried everything I was doing before it rebooted but nothing .
[Nexus S Android Development] ScOULaris:
So is there a generally accepted "best" version of this kernel?

In the "what's your kernel of choice" thread over in Nexus S general, I saw a few people recommending Marmite 6.2 in particular. If I'm running fine without any noticeable problems on 6.7.3 at the moment, would there be any benefit to flashing 6.2? Is there anything special about that particular iteration with regard to performance and/or battery life?
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
No. If a build is fine for you, it's fine.

If you want, you can try 6.7 and see if it gives you better performance.
[Nexus S Android Development] simms22:
dont try. enjoy your device instead. if it happens, then it happens. then grab it. id rather it didnt happen so you wouldnt have to grab it :)
[Nexus S Android Development] sgtkid12:
Lol its OK. And it was the first reboot I had on 6.7
[Nexus S Android Development] RunTech:
Finally I can write in Nexus Android Development (thanks leap_ahead :D) . I confirm the problem: when i turn off my phone i have to pull out the battery and reinsert it to turn on my phone with power botton (if I don't pull out the battery I can stay also for 3 hours on the power button but it will not work).

I have a Nexus s i9023 with Jelly Bean Stock 4.1.2 with marmite StockOTA 6.7.3 (no G.apps 4.2)
[Nexus S Android Development] ScOULaris:
Okay, cool. I actually was using 6.7 for about two days before I switched to 6.7.3. I haven't noticed a dip in performance or battery life, so I think I'll stick with it.
[Nexus S Android Development] treesurf:
I also get reboots when using the thalamus kernel on the latest version of Strawberry, so you're not alone.

Bedalus, using the latest CM test version my alarm woke me up this morning right on time, so it seems you've pegged down whatever bug that was.

Edit: just saw that knzo posted an updated version of Strawberry that should fix reboots, so you can ignore that bit...
[Nexus S Android Development] VerminX:
Thank you for describing the problem.

I can confirm that I don't see this happening at all. As soon as I turn on the phone the 3g signal is already there and in blue color

[Nexus S Android Development] yihtang:
I think the alarm problem is not caused by this kernel. I am on CM10 nightly with CM default kernel, had some alarms missed on some days (lucky that's on weekend, else I will be late for school). I also flashed 4.2 Gapps with the latest desk clock, I am also wondering if that causes the problem. I switched to other ROM and I will see if the alarm problem still persists.
[Nexus S Android Development] SwatMaster:
I'm on latest MIUI unfortunately 6.7.3 broke alarm and bln... I'd rather not roll back to 6.7 since i got a noticeable boost in performance with 6.7.3 despite the less RAM.
[Nexus S Android Development] beppegg:
I don't have the alarm problem on latest rascarlo's, but I do have the 3g data connection problem.

What I think is both a collateral effect and a prove that something is not smooth as it should be, I have my network monitor "3g watchdog" on top of battery consumption List, even Above Screen on!

Inviato dal mio Nexus S con Tapatalk 2
[Nexus S Android Development] :
I've seen only one kernel panic reported on v6.7.3 and it was caused by timers.

I posted a test version in the thread for the alarm fix, which everyone who had tried it says fixes the alarm bug. The fix had to do with timers so it might also be related to that panic.

The data issue... I'm not certain, but at least one person said it was fixed with the test version.

I'll build a full set and upload so people don't have to search backwards through the thread to find those test versions.

Hopefully morfic will be able to confirm whether i need a > or a >= in the CPU frequency code. Fans of trinity should check out the new forum: http://forums.derkernel.com/
[Nexus S Android Development] :
This is such a unique problem it's difficult to say what could be causing it. Certainly the kernel is involved in all hardware IO but if it was a kernel issue then everyone would experience the same thing. My guess is that it must be some bizarre issue with the button itself.

[Nexus S Android Development] RunTech:
I share your idea and at the first time I also think that was a problem for the power botton, but to check if the problem was or the kernel or the botton I change kernel and ROM a lot of time I tried: air kernel r251 with android stock 4.1.2, AOKP Milestone 1, Matrix kernel 24.0 and finally android stock 4.1.2 with stock kernel. Now all this kernel and ROM didn't give me problem after the shoutdown of my NS...I want to be more specific: when i had marmite v6.7.3 with android stock 4.1.2 and I turn off the NS if I really quick (2 sec after) press the power botton the phone turn on but if i let passed more tha 1 minute the phone didn't wake up (i have to pull out the battery ecc ecc...) I hope that this can help with your amazing kernel ;) (sorry for my bad english)
[Nexus S Android Development] caliban2:
Alarm-problems seem to be a bit erratic. I'm only certain about this: 4.2-deskclock works fine, I'm using it for almost 2 weeks now and didn't miss one alarm. Problems seem to have been introduced with marmite 6.7.3, but that one I only used for 34 hours. During that time, one normal morning alarm and 2 test-alarms fired fine, but it has other problems, which is why I switched back.

I'm interested in more feedback about the data issue. There's been some reports saying there is no problem.

Photo sphere rendering work on 6.7.4, it was not working on 6.7.3
[Nexus S Android Development] _yaz_:
yesterday i dropped a msg about my tests but now i can't find it :confused: so i just repeat :

- blx is definitely broken in 6.7.3 but works fine in 6.7.0. by broken i mean that 'charged' note is always written when hit the limit i set but charging itself does not stop only at full charge. it's fairly reproducible.

- bln is quite hectic all along the 6.x line. i tested it by calling myself from an other phone. sometimes note holds well (the longest period was 6 hours) but sometimes it dims without any clear evidence. if i sent two calls the conclusion was more confusing. sometimes the second event simply killed the note-state, sometimes it was kept but just as hectic as with a single event.

(all tests were run on knzo's strawberry 11.06 with marmite_cm versions 6.7.0 - 6.7.3)

i know it's anything but a statistically reliable test but, i'm afraid, i can't go much farther with my tools and ability.
