android automatically kills background apps if you run out of ram. and android 4.x does it even properly. so no need for that...

I used this kernel from first day after release. Everything worked fine until today. Screen start blinking again...

No, i cant confirm that. Everything is ok over here, maybe you have phantom home press actions?

I quote XeLLaR... seems that your phone has some interferences between antenna and touch keys... this is Phantom key syndrome... let's wait for Christopher testing and fix for that stuff... normally if it happens, if you touch the back touch key, the screen stop blinking... can you confirm this?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] przemekamag:
@smeroni68 For example, the phone is not in use. I get a text message. I have set the settings messages that unlocked the screen. But only blink once (for half seconds) and nothing. Then blink once or twice in a matter of seconds and that's it. Until now, for several days this problem does not exist.

Can you detail me what settings you have done and where... I can try myself to understand the situation... thanks
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] smeroni68:
Hi guys, there is a good news!!!

XeLLaR* has become right now a new tester of CastagnaIT kernel... welcome in the Team!!

I thanks XeLLaR* for his cooperation... and CastagnaIT too...

EDIT: XeLLaR* as me, can not share anything regarding Test builds and other informations... so please avoid to ask him what is not possible to have!!! Thanks to all for your understanding...
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] XeLLaR*:

this problem is an old problem of the earliest build of CM10, but they should have it fixed, i have never had this problem and always use the alarm

however, does not affect the kernel, if he continues to do for problems use "alarm extreme app"

Downside of using a bigmem kernel?

Guys,

What's the downside of using CastagnaIT's BIGMEM kernel? What are the disadvantages?

I know that it breaks 720p video recording. I have also read somewhere they achieve the increased memory by lowering the memory dedicated to things like SurfaceFlinger, and when that runs out of memory, it uses traditional memory allocation which is slower, resulting in worst performance. I am assuming that means potential lags when using some applications. Am I correct? Is there anything else?

I would like to get the opinion of you guys having experience with these stuff.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] smeroni68:
The only advantage to use Bigmem version is 17MB of more free ram... disadvantage is only the missing capability to video-record at 720P.

The addition mem reached has been "stoled" from ram video buffer... this is why 720P is gone.

The other settings of mem are the same in all versions.

It's not a matter of performance, it's just a choice in case you need a bit more ram for gaming or other...
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] smeroni68:
Just an information:

Yesterday there was a disappointing situation regarding a "suspected" v11.0 kernel for GT-I9001 that seems to be exchanged in PM over German forum...

From what I understood, seems that someone has "disassembled" the v11.0 released for GT-I8150 and after the change of the ramdisk has rebuilded a version "compatible" with GT-I9001 (informations are not confirmed, but seems the most plausible one).

This version is not coming from CastagnaIT and it is not authorized

. If you find around this file, please be carefully because it is not tested from us, and it can work or not... We do not wanna know anything about this hack... if you want to use you are free, but you must know that

it can be dangerous... so up to you guys!!

I'll suggest to CastagnaIT to avoid to release misalligned numbering versions of kernel for 9001 and 8150... this probably will avoid this kind of "unofficial" versions to be created... we are not joking...

Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] muczy:
Same here also. But it also happens with the standard Ivendor kernel...

Phone got a reboot while I was transfering a file to external SD? Why's that?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] OverClockeD_GR:
i used to have this youtube shutdown for a long time. now after flashed ivendor rc1 + nexus rc1/rc2 (hyper/row) i stop having this problem i was watching for hours today youtube and no shutdown happened while opening new videos. so give a try to new nexus kernel may help you too. with this no shutdown on beta 4 or release 1 for me.. ill check if 10.9 does it for me too.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] jura-akm:
As i mentioned before, the performance in gaming is very good on the last kernel and ivendor 1, no lags on vice city for instance, but in 5 minutes it starts to lag.. maybe its possible in next releases to make some kind of ram managment thing, so it doesnt lag at all.. just an idea... all that ram managers on market is useless...
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] XeLLaR*:
I think i answered you this question before!

If you want to play that game, buy a different device, try overclocking or use a different rom with other GPU driver.

These lags are normal on our device. It is not build for gaming.

A single core cpu with a old gpu and only 512mb ram... its normal. No kernel or rom can fix that. Developers are no magicans!

I also play alot of games on this device, but if it lags it lags.

[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] jura-akm:
Yes.. but didnt you say that the problem starts when ram gets full..? What if it didnt..? It doesnt lag at the beginning.. so maybe, just maybe there is the way to keep ram on the level or something..
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] XeLLaR*:
The Ram has a limit, the devs cant just make a bigger ram without breaking other stuff like surface flinger or camera. Its not like they didnt try at the beginning.

But the lection is, as Smeroni68 said "The i9001 is not a gaming machine".

Its a midrange smartphone. Little bit of surfing, chatting, talking to people. Playing games like angry birds or temple run. But for sure not GTA Vice City. Buy a Galaxy s3 or something if you want to play it. Or play it on your pc.

[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] smeroni68:
You can not manage the real free ram level... Is android that decide the use... And the rule is: free ram is not useful... System will use it!

A game is a ram heater... But if the amount of memory in our phone is limitated, nothing can be done...

[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] dr.wtf:
androids ram management is not perfect. i'm sure there are things that can be optimized lmk-wise. though with kernel 3.x its better now.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] XeLLaR*:
The Devs could enable ION, instead of PMEM, but everyone would cry about the non-working camera then. This is not an option.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] smeroni68:
... it is not an option until there will be the possibility to "patch" the HAL of the camera to work with ION... but this is not easy... and may be not possible...
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Jonboy2011:
hey castagna it is okay if i make an BootFromSD card Version of your kernel ? of course i will give proper credits :)
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] smeroni68:
Are the modifications inside the boot.img file?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Jonboy2011:
yes inside the fstab.qcom
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] smeroni68:
I would like to let you know, that I spoked with Ivendor 10 minutes ago... he confirmed me that is possible to create a zip file to be flashed via recovery to exchange the partition of DATA... as I told you some days ago... he will prepare an easy way to exchange to ExtSD and I think IntSD back...

This is much more easy to apply than provide for every kernel/version update a modified one... but as you want...

Ciao

EDIT: for example Castagna has 4 main kernels versions... Eduk more or less the same... K^Kernel and Nexus... i think you will have a lot of work!! Instead the file must be applyed just after rom and kernel before restart the phone!!

EDIT2: maybe we will need different files depending from the rom/system (so fstab.qcom can be different), but this is pinuts... everyone can have on SD the files to do the change...
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] XeLLaR*:
That sounds great!

Especially for GB/JB dualboot.

I have an idea in my head, about a recovery that changes the Kernel and fstab.qcom to get real dualboot if you want.

Lets say you place a kernel for GB in /sdcard/gbkernel and a fstab.qcom for gb in /sdcard/gbfstab

The same for JB or ICS or whatever you want.

Now, if you power up your phone, you will get to the recovery where you cab choose from:

-Boot to Rom1 ( int.SD )

-Boot to Rom2 ( ext.SD )

If you choose Rom1, it will flash the Kernel and replace the fstab.qcom with the one you want to use. After that it will reboot ( This should be doable with a script also )

The same for Rom2.

Thats the idea that came into my mind yesterday.

P.S: I have no idea if recoverys can get tweaked like that, but if it is possible, this idea should be possible to develop.

BTW cant wait for v11
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] XeLLaR*:
No, i am using the v10.9 to reproduce it, ive changed my invironment. Maybe you should try a factory reset?

Always the latest one :good:
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] Jacopo97:
yes but i mean if use the kernel with BIGMEM, ExUv or OC but now i have read the file "READ ME" made by CastagnaIT and i have understrand all ... thx for the answer :p
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] XeLLaR*:
Oh, that depends on your phone.

Use exUV first, if your phone is unstable with it, you have to use the UV. Bigmem depends on what you do with your phone. Do you play games? Then it is the right choice for you. If not, then choose the non-bigmem. All versions have OC, however it isnt enabled, you have to set the OC frequency yourself in the Settings.

Castagna, are you going to make high bigmem kernel, i think it will be very handy. I browse a lot with many tabs opened, so I need as much memory as possible...
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] XeLLaR*:
We have answered this question quite a few times.

CastagnaIT wont make a bigger bigmem, because it would disturb other things like ADSP, SurfaceFlinger or the Camera at their work. If the kernel is well made, you wont need higher ram values.

Except you won't be able to use your USB connection for any data. Forcing fast charge will force your phone to detect a computer as a charger, which will allow it to charge faster, but that way you can't copy any files from/to your phone.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] TwinHeadedEagle:
That's true, but choice is on you...faster charging or USB.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] smeroni68:

It is not correct... This option is ONLY for data cable connection... Power charger still use the fast charge mode... This is why with fast charge enable, data connection is not possible... So only in case of data cable connected to PC... Not usb charger, not other power sources...

It is not necessary to reboot... The settings are on the fly...

My phone just had a sudden reboot and now is stuck at boot - CM circle is loading endlessly.

When it rebooted for the first time, the CM logo would be there for some time and then it would reboot again, and again, and again. However, when I popped out the battery and turned the phone back on, it sticks at CM logo.

I've been using CM10 Release 1 by ivendor and CastagnaIT v10.9 for like 7-10 days, not that I flashed it just now. It started suddenly, my phone was on standby on my desk, I didn't use it and I haven't installed any mods. The last app I installed is Now Playing Beta, which was like 2 hours ago. I'm not sure if it was launched and if it could even cause this kind of problem. That's the only app I installed in the last 3-4 days.

I don't know if it's kernel's or ROM's fault, but I'm reporting it at the kernel thread anyways.

I fixed it by wiping cache & dalvik and fixing permissions. Just wanted to report it as a possible bug or something.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] TwinHeadedEagle:
You always have to wipe cache and dalvik after installing kernel. This is not bug it inside rom or kernel...

Just an update on development.

CastagnaIT has started fixing the base sources on kernel v3.4 from arco git.

Till now it boot but will block on rom loading...

For this development, Castagna has decided to use the public github... The main stuff is to fix the base code of the kernel...

v11 kernel will be released with Ivendor RC2, because some features are linked to the new rom...

Hi eduk!

your 3.4 kernel source is not clean, many files are kernel 3.0...

the 3.4 kernel source that uses arco5 is totally different from your own.

I do not know where is the problem, but with my 3.4 the rom start, but stop at loading animation

I've done some tests, but i don't have found a solution,

and also i do not know if there is to also modify the ramdisk, or if i can use the same of kernel 3.0
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] educk:
Hi Castagna!

I think you checked the wrong branch.

Here is the current one: https://github.com/erik96/Linux-Kernel-3.4

(jb-3.4_ariesve - based on arco's sources) I just pushed an hour ago the latest commit that fixes everything.

Mine compiles too and it stucks at the same point!

I've been trying to import locally some KGSL drivers from the 3.0 kernel (the problem might be there) but my efforts were unsuccessful until now.

Thank you for your work!
