[Vibrant Android Development] creeve4:
Those are the steps I like too, except for 600 MHz.

I made an init.d script to modify the governor settings, but none of the values are sticking. I ran the script through Script Manager and everything wrote just fine, but none of the values stuck. What do you suggest for tuning the governor?
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Depends on what ur goin for...performance? Balanced? Battery? Also why not on 600?
[Vibrant Android Development] creeve4:
My phone seems to mostly use 100, 200, 800, 1200. 600 doesn't seem necessary.

I'm trying to configure lulzactive for performance, but can't get any of the values to stick.
[Vibrant Android Development] kaiser_bun:
Yea, I get what you're saying. It'd be interesting to see stepping you proposed. I was thinking of the 100, 400, 800, MAX only because it's close to what your Nighly #3 was with Smartass. Just having 500 and MAX on that one kept the phone very responsive, but I think the battery could see a minor improvement (if the governor plays nice) with the extra 2 steps to work off of.

I'm getting a feast or famine kind of experience with what I've been trying out recently. Scary seems to work as a better middle ground with your new kernel (Beta 1) in that some of those middle clocks actually get some usage. Smartass takes a little to long to get to the top clocks for my tastes, but I'm willing to take some hits on the battery life for the sake of speed so that's just my take.

Either way I'm a big fan of your kernels. Even though I keep a copy of Overstock on the ready as a just in case DMz Nightly #3 is my new goto when I have to fall back.
[Vibrant Android Development] iwasblown:
I've been using scary with 100 to 1300 and screen off profile to 100 and 500 smartass. Been working pretty good.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
You don't need to set screen off on this kernel, its already set

PS new beta soon erbody
[Vibrant Android Development] kaiser_bun:
Sweeeeet.

[Vibrant Android Development] LoGiK915:
Having a problem trying to install this kernel with FatRyder. Sends me into a bootloop every time. Tried re downloading and reinstalling but still the same results. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
I have the same issue with beta2 for some reason - Try to go back to the first version and see.
[Vibrant Android Development] LoGiK915:
Thanks. Install beta1, booted first time. Not sure what's up with beta2.
[Vibrant Android Development] kaiser_bun:
Did anyone else notice that the Wifi doesn't turn off when the screen is turned off when using the Scary governor? I could be crazy, but I just wanted to put it out there in case anyone else experienced it. Smartass and ondemand worked fine in the quick tests I did once I noticed it.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
OK guys, working on the kernel tonight when I'm home from work. Things you can expect in the new kernel.

Redone frequency stepping, removing 100mhz steps and doing 200mhz up till 1ghz then 100mhz after

Redone govs with some optimized for performance others for battery (will list which ones)

Adding in user voltage control so you guys can set what's best for you (I personally don't like it but I'll add it)
[Vibrant Android Development] kaiser_bun:
Awesome. Thanks a lot for the time you're put into a kernel for a "legacy" device, heh.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Legacy? XD only phone to come close to my vibrant is my GNex. Vibrant is the best phone I've ever owned and imma be using it till its stops working :>
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
+1 I have a HTC One S but like my Vibrant better
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Gnex is the only phone I've had that I like as much as my vibrant, I got the NS4g when I was on sprint and despite the similar hardware it was not even close to as good as my vibrant, my vibrant ran circles around it quality wise and performance. Imma probly be giving away my NS4g as it has a bad esn and I just don't need/want it.

My 4 favorite and best devices I have owned are

G1

Vibrant

HP touchpad

galaxy nexus
[Vibrant Android Development] kaiser_bun:
Haha, totally agree, hence the quotes :highfive: But 2 years is an eternity in tech gadgets, so I'm just glad this bad boy is still getting all the love it does.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Really as I see it its only a year out of date because Samsung packed so much power into it compared to any other device at the time. The SGS was performing as good as or better than many a dual core for a long time. Even still there isn't a game on the Android market I can't Max out on it :D and audio quality wise its still top notch
[Vibrant Android Development] kaiser_bun:
I dunno... I would love an extra 512MB of RAM ;) That and a better camera are the only 2 things that I look at and sigh about when I see some newer phones. But with almost everything lacking a micro SD slot nowadays I get over it pretty quickly, heh.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
More MP =\= better camera though just fyi(5mp with a better sensor will beat 8mp with crappy sensor any day), vibrant has a great camera , at least on mine, with clear crisp pictures and video. As for ram the 512mb hasnt caused any hick ups in performance for myself, I don't personally see any reason for the vibrant to have more considering its size and resolution. If it was 720p display then maybe but 512mb is more than enough for android to run smoothly and with properly configured memory management you won't know the difference between 512mb and 1gb. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] kaiser_bun:
Hah, well let me rephrase then... when I look at the iPhone's camera (not even the upgraded 4S's) I long for a snap and shoot capability with the Vibrant. I haven't had any real world sitings of the One S, or SII/SIII to gauge their quality (only reviews), but I've been envious of the iPhone's camera since the 3G and 3GS; and to your point about the sensor those were 2 and 3MP respectively. I can eventually get a decent pictures (although never at night or low light) if I mess with the exposure, white balance, and scene, but it's just impractical to me.

But it's a small nit to pick. I'm more than satisfied with everything else, and with the ICS Devs doing their thing and Fishman, Moped_Ryder, and yourself working some of the old school stuff the months to come will only get better.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Well guys, quick update

Freq Changed and Kernel booting

Voltage Control is half working, Its not seeing the Default voltages for 600mhz, and anything above 1ghz (idk?)

and for some reason phone reboots when screen turns off :3

So getting close to having working Voltage control

P.s added in 1.4ghz for you guys also

Update 2: Dont think I'm gonna get it workin with Raspdeeps original method, Imma try modifying Unhelpfuls

Update 3: Def sure I can get it workin with modin unhelpfuls method, gonna work on it some more tomorrow
[Vibrant Android Development] kaiser_bun:
Thanks for the updates, ECOTOX. Looking forward to giving it a go whenever you give it the greenlight.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Think I got the reboots fixed but the problem with Voltage Control is that Values are not being read or written properly so i gotta figure out why :3
[Vibrant Android Development] :
this is being bothersome :| What you guys think release kernel with fixes for the other problems and work on voltage in the mean time? Is voltage control something important for you guys?

Edit: Ok I'm cutting Voltage Control from the next release because I need to figure out how to get it working right

Edit 2:.....changed mind again....gonna try and write a custom voltage control ref raspdeep, ezekeels, and unhelpfuls. Probly wont work with current apps so I might have to write one or see if others will support it

Edit 3: Gonna take a few days for me too figure out how voltages are set and all and how to pass values right so that voltage is set properly.....heres to hoping only a couple days of work :>
[Vibrant Android Development] kaiser_bun:
Heh, do what you gotta do man.

My vote would have been to leave out voltage control, but I'm just anxious to give the new version some test time :D
[Vibrant Android Development] :
if i cant get it done in the next couple days I'll release one without it
[Vibrant Android Development] :
ok guys, heres a quick update to beta3 (changelog in second post)

still workin on volt control

let me know how it goes :D
[Vibrant Android Development] kaiser_bun:
Flashed it last night and so far so good. Did some overclocks to 1.2GHz and swapped around some of the governors and schedulers and didn't notice anything catastrophic. Sticking with scary and sio to see how things go the next couple of days, but I'm a huge fan of the 200Mhz stepping. Great stuff :good:
[Vibrant Android Development] kaiser_bun:
I noticed something kind of interesting with overclocking and using smartass. I overclocked to 1.2GHz and was messing around with it for about 10 minutes, and when I looked at the frequency usage in CPU Spy I noticed that the 1.104GHz and 1.2 GHz were used about 50% of the time (20% and 30%, respectively). Mixed with some of the old data.

That seemed kind of high, so I reset the stats and flipped around some apps and just left the screen on for a little bit (about 30 seconds) and when I looked at the clock usage the only two frequencies being hit were the 1.104GHz and the 1.2GHz. I powered off and went in and out of deep sleep a couple of times for about a minute and flipped through the home screen and app drawer, and when I checked the usage again I noticed the only "mid" frequencies used were 100MHz, 200MHz, 400MHz, and 600MHz (skipped 800MHz, and 1.0GHz), and they were all extremely brief (less than a second for the few screen off actions I did). The 600MHz step eventually got into the 6-7second range, but it was still ramping up crazy fast to those 2 overclock frequencies.

If leave the max clock at the default 1.0GHz, the stepping seems more normal from what what I've seen in a similar quick test and on other kernels; something like:

1.0 GHz at 17%

800 MHz at 6%

600 MHz at 5%

400 MHz at 7%

200 MHz at 2%

100 MHz at 7%

Deep Idle at 56%

Can anyone else verify a similar behavior? This happened on the old DMz Nightly #3 kernel and smartass, but it only hit the 500MHz, and max clock; nothing else in-between.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
This is working well so far... Been running it for a day in my new rom... once they both settled in this thing is very very smooth.

[Vibrant Android Development] :
Yea looks like smartass is bugging at freq over 1ghz. I'll look into it
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Ok hits quick update

So in stopping all attempts at UV control as after doing research i found that having it may only increase battery by 2% under ideal conditions. Also if you UV it could potentially use more not less power

So now i will be working on the governor issues and giving more options for IO schedule aswell as further optimization and maybe building with linaro
[Vibrant Android Development] :
looks like I'm gonna be adjusting the memory configuration as I found a bug thats caused by it :3
[Vibrant Android Development] sirganon:
I tried beta 3 OCd to 1.4ghz and tried multiple times to benchmark with AnTuTu. Every time I ran AnTuTu it would freeze the phone at the 3D knights (if you used antutu before you know what I'm talking about) and I was forced to reboot by holding the power button. I went back to the Slim_DMplus kernel which is working just fine at 1.3ghz. Beta 2 just caused bootloops. Beta 3 worked fine with 3D games so I'm not sure what caused the freezes.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
probably the 1.4ghz c: i have the voltage on 1.4 set to 1450mv which is well outside my comfort range. Mine does fine at 1.4 with that but that doesn't mean all will. Stick to 1.3 cause gpu is slightly higher clocked at that speed also :D beta 3 @ 1.3 will do you well with scary gov

As for 1.3 ghz i didn't change the voltage or anything :3

Hoping to see future development work on this, got potential!

[Vibrant Android Development] Evil Avnovice:
It's been awhile, and I know I left feedback months ago about how beta 3 gave me problems.

I went and retried it, and my experience is a lot better. I'm guessing that I might have missed and obvious step.

Either way, I'm running this with ZenDroid, and it works like a charm, with "Scary" govenor, and a minimum frequency off 400MHz/maximum frequency of 1000MHz.

Just wanted to rethank you, ECOTOX. ;)

Unable to flash latest version

I have Deranged9 Fishman Mod1 Rom & I have been using the first build of this kernel since quite some time.

But in Asphalt 7 game, I have been experiencing lag lately(as the cars are getting faster, issue is more pronounced) probably due to timing issues of cpu(from what i had read)

So, I thought, the latest build of the kernel would fix the issue. wiz. Beta 3.

Edit: Iam using Smartass with max as 1.4ghz on Setcpu, the issue has been fixed. And the phone is not heating as much if it was maxing out always, so I guess the game was not demanding after all, and that too with Unroll textures & Anti-aliasing forced using Chainfire3d (to max the visual quality, though it doesn't create any appreciable difference)
[Vibrant Android Development] :
I figured I'd do a quick update for people just to give you a heads up.

Currently I don't have a vibrant which is why development hasn't happened on this kernel for a while. My brother needed a phone and its the only one I could spare. Once he gets a new one I will update, but for now no dice.

Hopefully my brother returns the phone in good condition >.> but for now I'll cya all l8r
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] humhum731:
hi all, I am a beginner in android.

I was trying to flash a custom kernel and rom for my Mini pro by following the tutorial thread. I rooted my Mini pro and unlock the bootloader. Busybox and cwm-auto installer were also installed.

However, when I tried to install kernel by fastboot and result said the device is not rooted. I tried again with flashtool but result was just the same. I had already rooted my device several times and therefore I dont understand where the problem is.

Please help. Thanks for your answers first:victory:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Did you place your phone in fastboot mode(blue LED)?

Which way did you unlock your bootloader?

Rooting can't affect the kernel installation at all. Doesn't matter if you are rooted or not, it should work anyways.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] victory7:
For use flashtools to update kernel you must open your boot loader and flash it easy, kernel update no need to root your device. Because you try update in fastboot or flash mood .

I think your problem is other things example boot loader not opened or ...

Hi there I just see this great mod by Taine0 of 360 Launcher, but there was a problem, that's an old version and doesn't support transparent status bar, so I made the same for the new 360 launcher and looks pretty well and actually you can use icon packs and so on. I just want to share this and I take no credits since it was Taine0 idea.

It would be awesome if someone could make icon packs for it and publish them on this thread. 360 Launcher works like a charm on our Ace.

Uhm what icon name format does it support? MIUI or Adw/Launcher Pro?

Just used it and im liking it. Will look more in its settings as Ive used this launcher with that mod by Taine0 a long time ago. Thanks again!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] aaiko:
you can add it directly to the apk with winrar or 7zip

example for adding icons:

if the activity is com.android.contacts2

the icon must be named like this: app_com_android_contacts2.png

Or you can download a icon pack and then replace the icons inside, actually is a pretty easy way to modify
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] Pseudonym:
Oh so it was the same format as before. Ive done a Glasklart icon pack of taine0's launcher before but tossed it cause its a bit laggy back then.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] Pseudonym:
Btw as Ive known TaineO's mod has no app names. Or is it the other mod that I used. There is another 360 mod with signa icons and another one that was optimized for mdpi that was based on taineo's mod. Not sure if what mod has the one with no app names. If u can find it can u do it too? Thanks!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] aaiko:
With the latest update of 360 you can use icons with no name like this:

Also, you can pick an icon for a specific app or rename it and so on

how or can you edit the size of the dock bar icons?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] aaiko:
yes, you can, you have to decompile the apk and search in values folder for dimens.xml edit it then rebuild the apk and sign it.

[Off-topic] daktah:
before you say it, yes i know win7 isnt a good tablet os. i know. i dont care i still want one. lol.

anyway here is what im looking at:

my arguments for gigabyte:

much faster cpu (atom equivalent of an i3)

standard 2.5" hdd allows more and cheaper upgrade options (hybrid hdd anyone?)

dual usb with one superspeed

mouse pad, mouse buttons and scroll buttons make it much easier to navagate freely, also certain combos will send certain commands like C+A+D

looks really sexy, pretty much like the hp slate

thoughts: if it had atleast 720p resolution and atleast dx10 supported gpu id be all over this thing

summary: has ehh hardware compared to msi but ease of use seems exponentially better​

my arguments for msi:

slightly cheaper

ips display at 720p+ (you sexy beast)

lower tdp cpu

radeon 6 series gpu with dx11 absolutely OBLITERATES any atom gma (the ability to do some light gaming like bejeweled and heavy weapon would be nice, at more than 15 fps would be even better)

double the ram at a higher data rate

msata insures low power consumption

dual cameras

gps (cuz why not)

slightly bigger battery

dedicated C+A+D button can be pretty useful

tpm security module

thoughts: if i could find a better cpu to upgrade to i could live with everything else and would buy this thing in a heartbeat but lack of mouse controls, super slow cpu and lack of i/o ports are a real turn off

summary: has some fairly impressive hardware for a tablet, but the ease of use seems lacking compared to the gigabyte​
