[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
I try to correct the problem with youtube. I return to original kernel and see which tweak makes the problem.

I hadn't no time yesterday!

Wait and see!! :)

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] Mavasilisk:
Can you try to include Linaro's toolchain? It should bring 20-100% performance boost. Else we have to wait the guys from CM7 team to include it and we will have it in the future.
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
I have installed it on my personnal computer (i compile at my work on VM and at home).

But, i have seen that DrTeuffel from SGS has tried this on CM9 without result (placebo effect?). I will tried, but later, i must stabilized the actual kernel.

I have found why you tube doesn't worked, it can't use buffer and write on it to charge video (BFQ or SIO make this pb).

I upload new version this evening i think.

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] minidou-77:
No toolchain is really a big improvement. I clearly see the difference on my SGS II
[Gen8 Android Development] Mavasilisk:
Then I'm looking forward to test it out on Gen8. Hope to see over 50% performance improvement.
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
I believe to have seen that linaro is for Pandaboard hardware [and others but...], build with an omap 3430, we have a 3630 and a part of code used for CPU is different.

Maybe the toolchain is developped to improved performance for this CPU only....

NEW UPDATE TO TRY, i have retired FBQ Scheduler :crying: , but this fix youtube. And i have retired all compcache, zcache and swap code part.

I don't know if kernel is stable up to 1100MHz i can't test its (CPU unstable).

I have made a pack of kernel with all in one. There is a file *.txt who contains the configuration of freq and voltage (number in hexa, i have made a table, i must find it ^^).

I upload it and update the first post

Make a report please with all detail that you can put!!

Many thanks to all kernel testers :)

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
SIO IS UNSTABLE CHOOSE ANOTHER SCHEDULER WITH VOLTAGE CONTROL!

:p
[Gen8 Android Development] Mavasilisk:
1100, 1150, 1200, 1300 not working. I'm testing the others now and I will update the post.

It hangs after OpenAOS logo when ANDROID logo should appear it stays dark and nothing happens.

1300 hangs on OpenAOS logo.

There should be something small that you have missed and probably it causes the problems.
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
Huuum Compilation failed, i thank that its will be ok >.< ...it arrived when you make lots of modification on the code (i used archos toolchain at work).

Sorry guys I will see it and upload new version tomorrow.

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] Mavasilisk:
Its ok. Glad to see I helped. I can test the new ones tommorow at the evening.
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
I attach kernel files to test.

Desactivation of SIO Scheduler (unstable)

Including CleanCache

CFQ Scheduler optimisation

Optimisation of OnDemand Gov.

Add Interactive Governor

Better DSP Freq (260MHz to 520MHz)

I have tried Youtube is ok (little lag)

Video player is ok (fluid with little lag)

I hope that the compilation is ok for this kernels!!!!

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
Hey guys, i don't know if you have the same pb (i have a version little different than you), but when i used strongly the wifi, my tab freeze and reboot, or crash:crying: .

Same problem? Even if i use the last values from your kernel.

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] Mavasilisk:
I just came home. Going to test it later and update the post with the results

1200: Doesnt boot.

1150: Freeze after Gingerbread selection. Looks like the compilation has failed.

1100: Freezes like 1150.
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
For me 1100 works well (except wifi, who crash my tab).

I will have more time this week to remake tweaks all with a new base.

Ps: ICS compilation failed :confused:

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] darren1:
1100 working well for me, all video apps seem to work. No freezes so far. 1200 wouldn't boot haven't tried 1150. Again thank you for the kernels.
[Gen8 Android Development] Mavasilisk:
1100 doesnt work for me. I can use the first 1100 but not the latest one. ANDROID logo doesnt show up.

Weird, it seems like the screen just stays black. If I press the screen on/off button the screen turns off and if I turn it on again it gets a little brighter so I know its working. Can you fix it? Something is causing the display to stay black.

PS: I have more time to test this week
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
I will take the source from the first kernel published here, compare it to a clean source and removed useless code that i had added in (swap/compcache/SIO/BFQ...).

The DSP speed must be too high, or voltage too down, i will release lots of kernels, with different parameters, and see if the CPU and peripheral are stabilized. I can down the speed of bus if i find the part of code (and possible).

I work on my kernel the evening (23h GMT+1 - Paris) and released it when its compiled, At work, i haven't any good internet connexion (well limited at 250Mo by week : / )

I think that i will make a post to paste error from ICS compilation for gen8, I can't find any solution with google at my error (make: *** No rule to make target `NOTICE-TARGET-STATIC_LIBRARIES-libhostapdcli', needed by `out/target/product/g8/system/bin/tiap_cu'. FYI) sorry for out topic ^^

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] Mavasilisk:
Making several different kkcernels is a good idea. Excuse my dumb question but what is the DSP? Is it something like a co-processor?
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
Approximatively, yes. Read this: (Digital Signal Processor)

The DSP Advantage

As full-motion video for rich multimedia content or advertising, video conferencing, voice

recognition, sophisticated security, and other applications are added to the wireless

appliance, DSP technology becomes increasingly essential. Only by adding DSP

functionality to the basic processing configuration of a wireless appliance can developers

reproduce high-quality, real-time video within acceptable power consumption limits.

I have made another kernel with voltage from first kernel released and all advantage of last.

I add the part of code to have a trace:

static struct omap_opp omap3630_mpu_rate_table[] = {

{0, 0, 0},

{S300M, VDD1_OPP1, 0x25, 0x0, 0x0},

{S600M, VDD1_OPP2, 0x30, 0x0, 0x0},

{S900M, VDD1_OPP3, 0x3c, 0x0, 0x0},

{S1000M, VDD1_OPP4, 0x40, 0x0, 0x0},

{S1100M, VDD1_OPP5, 0x4a, 0x0, 0x0},

{S1180M, VDD1_OPP6, 0x3f, 0x0, 0x0},

};

static struct omap_opp omap3630_dsp_rate_table[] = {

{0, 0, 0},

/*OPP1 (OPP50) - 1.0V*/

{S260M, VDD1_OPP1, 0x25, 0x0, 0x0},

/*OPP2 (OPP100) - 1.1625V*/

{S520M, VDD1_OPP2, 0x2f, 0x0, 0x0},

/*OPP3 (OPP130) - 1.3V*/

{S520M, VDD1_OPP3, 0x3b, 0x0, 0x0},

/*OPP4 (OPP-1G) - 1.35V*/

{S800M, VDD1_OPP4, 0x3c, 0x0, 0x0},

/*OPP5 (OPP-1.3G) - 1.35V*/

{S520M, VDD1_OPP5, 0x3e, 0x0, 0x0},// test ->

/*OPP5 (OPP-1.3G) - 1.35V*/

{S700M, VDD1_OPP6, 0x3f, 0x0, 0x0},

};

It's the last of the day :)

Please make a report with:

The Governor choose (ddefault or other) i have a doubt with stability with Interactive Gov.

The scheduler

The application runs during the crash.

Thanks in advanced!

[Gen8 Android Development] jackson0829:
1100 working well for me, all video apps seem to work but a little bit laggy than Bull RC2's Kernel (with Interactive Gov ). No freezes so far. 1200 and 1150 can boot but easily freeze !

Thanks bizcuite for the kernels.
[Gen8 Android Development] Mavasilisk:
This one is working good. MX player has its usual lag spikes (its not caused by the kernel). Antutu benchmark shows 200 points lower then before (is it because the DPS is high?). I've played around with it and it seems stable. Anyway, there are some lag spikes from time to time. It didnt freeze.

its written {S1180M, VDD1_OPP6, 0x3f, 0x0, 0x0},

}; so itsnt it supposed to reach 1180 instead of 1100?
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
I cannot unlocked this step. I have tried it's very hard to find all parameters... we have already one step freq added.

For video i must applied patch for dspbridge: http://gitorious.org/dspbridge

Strangely divx118 has watched this code lol :D .

I see how patch it and upload released after test (look the size of bull kernel, there are lots of patch include in, i think that this patch).

I prefere concentrate my effort to stability and video lag pb, i will increase freq later.

Bizcuite.
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
10 viewers and no report :p is it a good news and kernel works well (except little video lag)?

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] minidou-77:
Sorry I can't test for now I'm not home right now and I don't have my tab with me

I promise I'll test and report on Monday :-)
[Gen8 Android Development] Mavasilisk:
I said the lag spikes in MX player is not caused by your kernel. It is always lagging with this player in Bull, use Mobo player and its fine.
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
Good news!!

I try to increase speed of dsp at 1100MHz, and have better result with stability!!

Thenewt release will have 800 MHz after that i make a test.

If crash, i try 600MHz with 0x40 voltage (same at 800).

Bizcuite.
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
Hi guys.

Tests that i have made today:

For dsp:

800 and 600mhz dsp doesn't worked with different voltage. I can't increase more this frequency.

I let to 520mhz the freq.

I have tried to load another dspbridge driver by modification of the image system, modofication works but not youtube :mad:

I have tried to compile another driver, but there are too lots of error. I will try later, when i will have more time.

I compile anothers versions this evening (23h) with 1150 and 1200mhz cpu freq to test, 1100 is stable that i see by reports.

I have found a bug on bull rc2,it was already found but i think solve it.

If you have your root partition full. You can deleted (no warrantly that this work) /mnt/secure/asec. App. downloaded with google market are stock here.

Edit: after one reboot, you lose all app in directory :banghead:

I have tried with xda dev app from google and it works.

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] Mavasilisk:
Upload the kernels that you want us to test. By having 520 MHz DPS can we increase the CPU more? Anyway, what happened with Linaro's toolchain? Did you figure it out or its only for panda and other different builds?
[Gen8 Android Development] minidou-77:
Working fine here

But with MX I have a white-blinling screen when I try to play a video file, but only on the video area (a long press on the power button shows the options and the screen stops blinking but the video doesn't appear.

With Mobo it's gone.

Thanks for your work and I am ready to test what you want

PS: And I'm using CFS and ondemand
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
Thanks for your report and for uses my kernel.

I have include (again) sio scheduler. I have no pb in my side, i will included it in next update.

Sorry to all for yesterday, i hadn't no time to compile new one. I hope this evening (i sleep 4hours by night, it's little difficult lol)

I have compile a new version of bull rc (cm7 rc 7.2.0 is online) i will upload it later.

For the kernel, i try to compile with linaro toolchain for gingerbread (to see, i think that i will first to try it on gen8), but i can't have an zImage, compilation crash on it, i try to resolve it. Have fix all pb not this :D

That's all, for tbe moment.

[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
LINARO compilation success!!!! :D

Ok guy, i have compiled successfully the Kernel with LINARO Toolchain (LAST version: 4.7 -> 4.4.3 for archos toolchain). :highfive:

I will make a new post to published and share it.

2 versions will be online: OC version to 1100 and NO OC version.

Bizcuite
[Gen8 Android Development] Mavasilisk:
Is it working well for you? Demn, I have to do something now and I thing I will test it later or at the evening.
[Gen8 Android Development] bizcuite:
I have a bug with the internal sdcard, i have no write access (rootexplorer have the root rights) and now i cannot read my system.img.

I try a full wipe and reinstalled all.

Wait and see

IT'S OK, MY KERNEL WAS THE PB, ALL WORKS NOW

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndehX:
Hey, im new here, and completely new to the whole "custom rom flashing" thing.

I would like to get into rooting my phone and then installing a custom rom like resurrection for example, but I have a couple of questions.

1. Do I need an SD card in my phone, to be able to root my phone/install custom roms? or can I just use the phones internal 16gb memory?

2. Would someone be kind enough to point me to a guide to rooting/installing custom roms for complete newbies like myself? I have searched the forums, but theres so many threads about different stuff, like clockworkmod/odin/cyanogenmod etc, my head is completely boggled. I just don't know where to begin with any of it.

Cheers. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
1) No.

2) Everything you need to know is in the Stickies.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndehX:
1. No you cant root without an SD card? or No you don't need an SD card? elaborate please.

2. Nothing in that thread helps someone like me who is totally new. I don't know what any of it means. Surely there is a simple guide that explains exactly how to root your phone, without linking you to 7 other threads in the process? That's all I've found up until now.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Read the bit in bold read which says 'Help ! Which file do I use ?'. This short section answers your question exactly.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndehX:
ok well i tried CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXX_LPB-v5.2-CWM5-PROPER.zip and my phone no longer boots....

tried CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXX_LPB-v5.2-CWM5.zip and I get the same thing, so im stuck now. great.

I can get into CWM recovery, but I have no idea how to copy the rom I want to use onto the phone when its in recovery mode. This is something that is just not explained anywhere
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndehX:
help?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Right. In order of importance:-

1) No bumping threads within 37 minutes. Not cool. This is not your personal tech support forum.

2) You're having problems. Why ? Who knows. We're not there looking over your shoulder so we have no idea exactly what you did. I suspect you're having problems because you are in too much of a hurry/took shortcuts & didn't do what was suggested immediately after your OP.

3) However...Given the situation you find yourself in, I recommend you do one of two things:-

A) If you are absolutely sure you have CWM Recovery & not Android recovery (I say this because if your phone isn't booting normally, that normally means the flash didn't work & normally CWM wouldn't be successfully installed either), follow whatever instructions the rom you're wanting to flash has.

Every single rom on here has flashing instructions, normally on the first post on the first page of the thread on here devoted to the rom. If you can't be bothered reading those, I can't help you.

or

B) Go to Samfirmware.com. Search for the firmware that was on your phone before you tried to root it. Download this firmware. Flash the firmware you download following the instructions here. If you also end up with a .dll file, bin it. You don't need it. This will give you a clean install of stock. From there, I strongly suggest you read the CFRoot thread very carefully before you attempt to root your phone again. I also strongly recommend you read the Stickies linked to above, so you have some sort of understanding around what's what with this phone.

If you don't, being a betting man, I'll wager there's a fair chance you'll find yourself in the situation you currently find yourself in again (best case scenario), or worst case you'll end up with a 135gm paperweight as many people have on here over the past few days.

It's all up to you now. Your phone's destiny is in your hands.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndehX:
Thanks for the reply, much appreciated.

Sorry for bumping, I panicked a little when my phone wouldnt boot. I just expected it to work because I have done things like this in the past and never had problems. Im a pretty tech savvy person really, im just new to android.

I wish it was as simple as reading one thread, but there are dozens of different threads on how to root this phone, and different methods, its extremely confusing.

Im downloading the stock kernel now (300+mb for some reason, and its going to take over an hour to download)

Once I get my phone back to normal, I'll read through some more threads and try and get a better understanding on how to root my phone.

I had it rooted properly as the recovery mode stated CWM in the corner, I think the issue I had was not being able to copy the rom I wanted to use, onto the phone, because I dont have an SD card.

Anyway, thanks for the help, and fingers crossed I can at least get my phone to boot again.

Man, I've never come across anything so complicated in all my life lol.

Edit: Sorted! Flashed back to original kernel and its working as it was before I started. Thanks very much for your help mate, and at least now I know how to restore my phone if I mess it up again in the future.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndehX:
just thought I would update this thread and say I finally accomplished what I wanted.

Incase anyone is wondering, this is what I did:

Restored my phone back to factory settings/firmware/kernel

Booted the phone up, and copied my rom of choice to the internal memory via USB connection, and enabled debug mode.

restarted in download mode and flashed cf-root kernel (ended up with bootloop)

went ahead and installed the rom via clockwork recovery (creating a backup first)

The phone now boots into the rom im using (Resurrection Remix)

So if anyone is a little worried by getting the bootloop (but can still get into clockwork recovery) try flashing your required rom. Your phone may boot fine with new rom anyway. Mine did.

So far i have some test themes- Only battery and network signal indicators are themed, but it gives a good idea of how they'll look!

I need some help though, Later (hopefully today) I shall post the ZIP files which are flashable

I'd like it if you guys could try them and then tell me:

-If they work (I can't try them, my phones broked)

-Which you think is best

Then i shall start with the most popular!

Screenshots would be great!

I might set up a poll when I've uploaded the files
