Sorry I'm getting so late to you guys.

Got rear ended on the freeway on my way to work.

Everything is fine except my car that been smashed a bit.

Now answers:

1. Usually I add date when I update my threads but I added date to this thread as well.

2. Root is done in rom and you can run any kernel with rooted rom and still have root access. Even with full stock roms from leaks we had root if rom was rooted.

3. I used heimdall to flash kernel and I'm able to move apps to sd including Titanium Backup. May there is a difference between heimdall, mobile ODIN and ODIN. Dunno

4. I did not change anything to compile the kernel. Downloaded source. Set up path to toolchain. Specified defconfig and compiled.

I guess all questions answered. If not please ask again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _dan:
I'm glad to hear your okay. Accidents are such a nightmare :(. Also thanks for putting such hard work into android development.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Never made anything for either of those builds.

So can't say. That's why I was asking. I have full CM source and may be I'll be able to build a CM kernel but to best of my knowledge Chris41g did build one already. And he is much better dev than I'll ever be.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhAkEer:
WHAT! THAT EASY?!

Ive been trying to force values on this "/sys/power/cpufreg_table" all friggin day!

Wait a second? 1200 isnt overclocked!

=p

no seriously....

Anybody know how to overwrite the values of that file I had never seen before,

or if its impossible....

This be true or not, so far I like yours better =)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
You can over clock to like 1.4 with tegrak. I just choose not too

Running the exact same setup but still having horrible battery drain issues. It appears that a lot of people are even with stock ff18.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Beejis:
Flashed 0.1.1 and 4g works.

I tried different radios first (went from FF18 to EL29) and 4g still didn't work with 0.2.1. Don't know if it is just me but 0.2.1 broke my 4g I believe.

Kernel working great.. Finally get to use my phone as I like not worrying

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Personally. I'm running a themed completely stock FF18 With this kernel. Tegrak set to the settings I mentioned. Using the init.d and build.prop tweaks from blukuban and so far its smooth and getting better battery then when I am running AOKP which is all I can ask for. Maybe try those scripts. Keep in mind you need to take the xbin folder and move it to your build as well or some of the scripts won't work.

Edit. Also need to edit the first line of the smoothness script to be whatever launcher you're using.

Ya possibly seems like a ton of people are reporting the battery drain issue I am thinking it's a lower level bug. Maybe in the kernel or even in the hardware module maybe Wi-Fi? I have been researching the hell out of this and the issue is becoming a hot topic on sprint's community website.

I noticed anyone not having the issue seems to be running some heavy customization such as what you mentioned, custom rom, scripts, stripping tw, turning off features etc etc. Bottom line is we shouldn't have to resort to such measures because of sprint's poor qa process in there ics update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Oh I completely agree. I think you should be able to run stock with at least 75% of the products listed features enabled and get at least a full 24 hours out of the phone. That's my outlook on it. But for me I never run stock anyway so it doesn't bother me to do what I do. But I will say I wouldnt mind if what I did don't give me just a day out of the phone but way more. In theory it should but due to something its not. Most likely its just like you said. A low level bug either in wifi or something that's causing the phone to use way more power then needed.

To those of you that are using tegrak.

Have you tested the OC values with bench markers to verify if its actually working?...

anyone having issues hooking their phone up and having the sd cards mount? Mine won't do it on either W7 or XP. I get the red charging light, but no data :/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Most probably you missing drivers for MTP/PTP mount.

There is a free app in play store called USB Switcher.

Install it and then choose USB drive mode and reboot the phone.

Phone will mount as a USB drive as we had in GB.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cas8180:
I have I use quadrant standard and it reports the cpu speed increase.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brennam7:
keep getting an error saying USB device has malfunctioned. Reinstalled all the drivers, still saying the same thing :/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamexman:
Can't download source... just stays waiting forever:crying:

Any help?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
You're trying to mount storage while in recovery correct?

Mine has been doing the same thing. I can't recall if it's the 0.2.1 recovery or the older Agat kernel that came pre-installed with the Blazer rom I am running. I will test this out when I have time as I'm in the middle of another project at the moment. Anyone else want to test 0.2.1 storage mount in recovery please?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
2.1 kernel has been downloaded over 700 times.

I would guess it should be something on your end. Rom/tweaks/build.prop/PC drivers...

What is your phone showing? Is it mounting as an MTP/PTP drive or a USB drive?

Does USB icon come up at notification bar when you connect to PC or not?

If yes, when you pull notification bar down and click USB option what is phone saying?

Mounted as MTP drive or you get "Turn on USB storage" screen?

Please provide more detailed info so we can try to narrow down what is going on.

Just saying that USB device malfunctioned doesn't tell us on what end is the problem.

Just connected my phone to my work PC which doesn't have any samsung drivers whatsoever and still was able to connect USB storage.

I'm running my 2.1 kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brennam7:
Mine won't mount in recovery of in the OS, regardless of if im on mass storage or MTP

Nothing shows up when i plug in the phone. If it's working on your end, im positive its something on my end. The same thing has been happening to my brothers NS4G, multiple pc's multiple cables, might try leaning the port on my phone or something. It will still charge, just no usb, ever. Stopped working after i came off AOKP. Meh
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Which one are you trying to download?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Just booted to recovery and was able to mount USB storage to my work PC.

As mentioned above never installed any Samsung drivers on this pc.

It's corporate computer and we're not allowed to install anything that is not work related.

Phone mounts as USB drive both in system and recovery.

Running my tFF18 rom with 2.1 kernel/recovery pack.

Used USB switcher app to set SD card as USB storage and not as MTP drive. USB storage is gives faster connection as well.

Just FYI.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] konman21:
Please do tell,
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Well you need to take the build.prop and the init.d folder from BluKuban. Inside the init.d folder is a smoothness tweak. Open that tweak with a text editor and change the launcher to whatever you use. For example if you use TouchWiz then it would be com.sec.android.twlauncher. You would need to give to the data/data folder to find your launchers actual package name. Once that's done open the build.prop and copy everything below the BluKuban Additional Properties line. Open your build.prop and delete everything below your additional properties line and rhen paste what you coppied from BluKuban. Then push the init.d folder to system/Etc and set permission to 755 on folder and all files inside. 755=RWX/RX/RX. Finally take the files from inside the xbin folder of BluKuban and copy those to the xbin folder of your phone. That's system/xbin and set permissions to 755 or RWX/RX/RX. Once that's done. Reboot.

Happy to report that I am once again able to move apps to sd card using v0.2.1. (I didn't try the previous releases as I haven't been on the forums in a few days) I'm running Agat's tFF18 rom.

Whenever I go to your repo and try to download the source as zip or tar.gzip I click on download and nothing. Maybe downloads are getting hammered? Any mirrors?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Instead of downloading tar or gz try to sync repo or clone git.

That should work better.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] localguyincali:
Some reason when i run blu kuban with his kernel that comes with rom battery drains pretty fast even without installing any apps, i even tried used the kernel from here samething, but if i run stock out of box rom just rooted and with the kernel from here i get good battery life. And before trying this kernel and ran calks rom http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23185497&postcount=1 had good battery also and even running his converter http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=23374943 was great! but of course this was before the update that was pushed to me. still trying to find a rom that looks stock but add my own stuff,

What settings did you have with it? I'm using that with tegrak.. Battery life was outstanding.. But noticed the phone to be a little less snappy

-Sent from my Blu Kuban themed Tapatalk like a Boss
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
That's always is a compromise.

1. More battery life - less snappy

2. Less battery life - more snappy

And everyone should find his golden center. If you use higher CPU frequensy you use more battery. We can try to minimize the losses but logic won't change.

If you push your car over 100 miles per hour you burn more gas and no matter what you do and how you tune your car on that speed you will burn more gas than on 60 mph.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cas8180:
Hey Agat just noticed you were in Vegas too . Whats up neighbor! Anyways I dont know if this will help or not but I have been running oc'd at 1.3ghz with undervolting of -75mah at my highest step and -50 at each previous step. So I am actually getting more for less :P
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MiguelHogue:
Ahh very true indeed.. I was just wondering if things like the io scheduler and voltages would make a difference as well.. But snapping back to reality I guess it wouldn't, using higher CPU frequensy as you said.. Still fairly new to this

-Sent from my Blu Kuban themed Tapatalk like a Boss
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
As I said everyone should play with all possible settings to find what works best for him/her.

There are so many variables to it that no one can predict the outcome.

What apps one using?

How many of them?

What is running in the background?

What speed/connection one have in his/her's area?

And list can go on.

We can try to give user options and what they do whit it as out of our hands.

And let not forget we talking about Samsung phones and we know Sammy doesn't build 2 phones same.

That's the biggest and most unpredictable variable of all when we talk about performance and battery life.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fredrick1213:
Quick question, can kobridge tweaks be used with tegrak? I really wanna undervolt and use the tweaks to save as much battery as possible
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Don't know.

Never tried.

But I hope in day or two to upload a kernel with full underwolt/oc/uc support.

It should give you guys much more options.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Agat my question is how dangerous can it actually be to ur device to overclock with tegrak? I'm able to overclock to 1.3 but can that actually do damage to mmHg device? It's definitely making a huge difference though. Just look at these ridiculous Linpack scores!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
I don't think it will cause any damge with OC to 1.4-1.5.

You should consider that phone will run on that speed fraction of the time. Usually tasks performed on the phone do require full capacity of cpu.

However if you go all the way up to 1.8-1.9 (if someone gives that option from kernel source) you will notice overheating and that might cause reall damage to cpu.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Yeah phone was freezing and had to pull the battery on 1.4 but it's all good set to 1.3.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris-allen:
are you currsntly working on this kernal to make it overclockable to 1.4ghz??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Not overclock it but give you option to do so.

Kinda like activate a menu with few more line items in it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] localguyincali:
Believe it or not i'm getting much better life on, AGAT_v0.1.1#2 with just stock ROM/Rooted. I'm waiting till later on tonight to flash a ROM, just want to see how goes rest of the day, i'm 10hours on battery 87% :good: then i'll flash a rom then flash this kernal again and go from there.

For AGAT. AGAT_v0.1.1#2 kernel, is it the same on front page as the one i installed when i did the recovery? i followed qbkings vid how to install,
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamexman:
Intellidemand? O don't see this that on my governor's list. Have you enabled it yourself?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
New kernel uploaded OP updated links posted.

Added UV/OC/UC support.

- vdd_level interface

- UV_mV interface

- max_current_idx and min_current_idx to limit the cpu to policy levels

- new frequency steps (1600, 100, 50, 25... total step size is 18)

Unfortunattely killed my phone today. No worries just dropped it. So wasn't able to test/check everything.

Kernel booting and with tegrak was able to OC to 2.0. Didn't run it long enough to say anything about it but possibility is there.

Will take my phone to sprint tomorrow. Hope to get new one in a day or two.

Thanks to TEP it gonna cost only $100.

So I'll be out of deving for couple of days.

Let me know if there are any problems with new kernel and I'll try to fix it when I get a new phone.

Enjoy.

Still freezing and having to pull battery at 1.4. 1.3 is fast with a notable difference but after about a min the phone gets really sluggish and I'm not able to leave overclock and have to go back down to 1.2.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
That's again Agat! You are the man!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris-allen:
for some reason i cant overvlock past 1.4....thats as far a tegrak lets me go... and yes, starts out fast and snappy but after a few min starts lagging and slowing down. i did a bench and on quadrant and got 4356 @ 1.4.. then a few min later did another one and only hit 2490...i reclocked back to 1.2 and got 3201.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbaucom:
Hi Agat, tried the new (edit this was on 2.1 trying 2.2 now) kernel, it does not automatically reconnect to my Bluetooth car radio. I have to open settings Bluetooth select the device select the icon and click the boxes for it to reconnect.

The stock kernel reconnects within a second or two without doing anything.

I'm on rooted but stock ics rom.

thanks again for all the work you and the devs do.

wish we got support from samsung like the support you give us.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
Were u freezing up on 1.4?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Custodian:
You guys have to remember just because you oc the phone doesn't mean your phone will be able to handle it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
I thought it all had to do with the kernel. I know from my old og evo days it all had to do with kernel support as far as oc/uc. It may just be some hiccup being overlooked.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
Love the new kernel. Not looking to OC just looking under volt. My phone really isn't stable at 1.3. But anything I can do to get better battery life help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Custodian:
Unfortunately alot of chips regardless of how full proof a kernel is built aren't stable when they're pushed beyond their said limit . 1.2ghz is stable on our chips as is. Anything further...is pushing it. So expect some real no brainer hiccups if your chip can't handle the pressure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris-allen:
no..nit realy. i didnt leave it there more then about 15min or so... just seemed like it was forcing the kernal to OC but the system was bottlenecking.. i dont think it was truely overclocking.. but im not sure.. ill probly wait till this kernal has the ability to be OCed without tegrak.. :-)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris-allen:

You guys need to bookmark the Kernel Repo site by Rwilco.

I notice there have been a lot of issues with the hosting site used by Agat and Rwilco's is the way to go!

(Of course, if Agat JUST posted a new kernel, unless he email's it over to Rwilco at the same time or something, there will be still be a delay until it gets updated in both places)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Thanks again for the latest update Agat.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamexman:
No worries man. I hope everything goes well with your phone.

I can confirm what others are saying, overclocking doesn't work with setcpu, system tuner etc. Only one that works is Tegrak, but for some reason, TegraK does allow overclocking even on stock kernel (at least for me), I think it loads a special driver that allows it to do it. But if using a "conventional" overclocking program that relies on the kernel, so far, 0.2.2 isn't allowing it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brennam7:
isn't there an adb command you can run to confirm what the cpu is running at? I remember back in the good ol days of webOS there was a terminal command you could run to check the current freq
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
Every cpu is different... Just do some reading on over clocking i7 chips, there's hundreds of threads with people getting different results on the same chip model.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cas8180:
One of the issues I think people are missing is that tegrak actually loads it's own module think of this as hooks into the kernel. This is why you can overclock and undervolt with a stock kernel using tegrak. The best test to validate that your kernel does support overclocking and undervolting is to use a standard cpu controller program like setcpu or system tuners. These apps leverage the settings defined in the physical kernel and do not add any additional hooks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MiguelHogue:
I'm using Intellidemand with a few tweaks through tegrak and getting 3hrs 3 mins screen on time w/ heavy usage... What would be a good governor to use along side for a "screen off" profile...? I was reading up its not good to use certain govs for a screen off profile (sleep of death)
