Ye don't get me wrong Dan did a great Job with Turbo kernel and multiboot. Its just from my own experience. Even my GB+ICS Kernel is not as good as this one on GB. It would be around the same as turbo kernel on GB.

I'm going to update the other kernels before coming back to try fix the lag on online gaming. Once its done there's not much else left to update. Once its stable with all the changes I don't want to introduce new bugs.

It doesn't mean I'll 100% stop updating this. I'll just throw out a few experimental kernels. And if the results are good then I'll add them to main release. Meaning you guys can see for yourselves GPU OC'ing causes lag. Unless I see about porting or trying a different method....

Well, just so u all know the above is my plan for the future development of this kernel.
[Xperia Play Android Development] iFlasher:
It's good to hear from you. I only say that you take your time and do everything slowly, to ensure the least amount of bugs, and see how you end up doing a perfect kernel ...
[Xperia Play Android Development] smokerman:
i understand you 100%..turbo kernel is amazing and Cosmic Dan is great..we all miss his work, a lot, but well,life goes on..and having Doomlord,you and a few more working on developing other stuff is amazing..i really think you hit the spot when you say that once is stable, better keeping it that way..many users still uses Doomkernel v14..for me personally im going for JB roms,that improved a lot and have many features, and im not a hard gamer..i can play my 5 or 6 games at full without complaining..but some things needs to be improved on JB kernel,at this point we dont have 100% working and some roms dont boot with new versions..so a version 8 with all feautures and compatible at the most is necessary and without multibooting maybe. simple JB kernel for JB roms.:)

thanks for your hard and free work.:good:

Check out this same chipset over here !!

[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
Lot more phones are based on this chip (some of them are 1.2 and 1.4 GHz)

It is only maybe not so battery friendly to use at high speed

hello guys i am on lupus v7 720p can i just flash over v10 without losing my data(apps etc..) and v10 is better than the v7 or maybe i will wait for v11?
[Xperia Play Android Development] korrectmethod:
I flashed v10 over v8 and just wiped cache and dalvik. Works fine here.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nuck-TH:
bug or feauture?: backup of .android_secure done with CWM in v10 throws error, when i try to restore it on CVM5 of any other kernel.
[Xperia Play Android Development] xpinux:
i flashed v10 over v7 but some games are lagging a little like mc4 in singleplayer ...btw i am on nxt 2 rn1 and andrenobooster 0.6 enabled
[Xperia Play Android Development] iFlasher:
Use Lupus V6, this version have not lag on MC 4 and other games.
[Xperia Play Android Development] xpinux:
hey wedgess how about deleting some governors ... and scheluders to increse ram too?
[Xperia Play Android Development] smokerman:
that is a very good suggestion..i think that it could improve this kernel a bit more..many of users use smartassv2,interactiveX,ondemand,or performance..altough i m really liking smartassH3..could have maybe 6 governors and 2 or 3 schedulers..less options,less things to users mess with it.:D
[Xperia Play Android Development] abdel12345:
Yep I agree. There's way too many governor's that I don't ever use and don't even know what they do. But I think if he removes them loss of people will complain and ask for a certain one back ot something

Sent from my Xperia Play (r800x)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Fat_boy555:
Do not remove virtuous and lulactive..
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Absolutely was thinking of removing a lot of them. Say 2-3 Io-Schedulers and about 15-20 governors. However I know people will complain.. If not on this device, certainly others.

I guess there is also an option to build a light version, wih kernel stripped down a good bit.

I'll see...
[Xperia Play Android Development] smokerman:
well..we all know people complain about almost every thing..but you are the developer..so you must know what is better..Dan did it for turbo kernel and i dont see any complain..and if there is any he just respond: dont like,dont use it.lol.

:cool: anyway removing some stuff,it s a good idea if you really think we can gain with it..i dont see Doomlord releasing a kernel and people complain to him.;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Fat_boy555:
I would suggest removing darkside, superbad, lazy, brazillianwax, savagedzen, lionheart. And for i/O, cfq, bfq, vr. This is my suggestion.
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
I know but its the fact it would be for all 2011 devices and the fact that it already had all of the features it has. For this reason I think a light version is needed plus a full version... I dont like limiting peoples options. I will do all this after I fix the lag.

Wouldn't delete superbad, some reason some people swear by lionheart. I Would remove intellidemand and rename intellidemand2 to intellidemand, probably also: brazillianwax, savagedzen, lionheart, darkside, smartass, smoothass, userspace, scary, lulzactive, maybe one of the ondemands and a good few others can't think of them all. IO Schedulers I'd probably remove BFQ,ROW, Zen & VR.

These are just some I'm thinking of so don't freak out :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] Fat_boy555:
Pls do not remove zen, row and lulactive.. I use it for gaming.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nuck-TH:
What difference in kernels for aosp and stock roms? as i see in turbo kernel - they have only different ramdisk, at least for 4.x

Is this correct? If yes, can you make version for cyanogenmod 7, cuz it is reaaly new breathe of perfomance and minimalism in the world of same stock-based roms...
[Xperia Play Android Development] xpinux:
i strongly agree with you but i think ondemand too must be removed smartassv2 and smartassh3 should be enough i think because they are the best governors i have used soo far
[Xperia Play Android Development] 216Monster:
Intellidemand2 preference here

Sent from my R800at
[Xperia Play Android Development] xpinux:
guys just a question what do you prefer 480p version or 720p version and why?
[Xperia Play Android Development] raminta:
I prefer 720p because I use video recording too much but the only difference between them is the ram

in 480p u can have more free ram
[Xperia Play Android Development] huzi7868:
i remeber in older versions of 480p most gameloft games never workked is that fixed in this version

I have a Major problem with kernel, When u run Anything Thats Aroma the thing is squished and the text below is still their, Can u fix this so that aroma zips can be full screen!

Pure Gaming Kernel

hey lupus would you be able to create a pure gaming kernel with no recording capabilites and 2GHz overclock it would be great for people that only use there device for gaming
[Xperia Play Android Development] Fat_boy555:
And u would fry you cpu if over clocked to 2Ghz. Overclocking is not the solution..
[Xperia Play Android Development] extremetempz:
ive used my device for days at 2ghz with doomkernel
[Xperia Play Android Development] smokerman:
and get lucky maybe...even Doomlord said that a week a go we shouldnt give that OC to our chip..only to benchmark maybe a bit..np..but for daily usage? i sure dont recommend it..1.4 is safe enough for daily usage,1.6 at the most for some gaming..i wanna have this phone for a long time,i use it a 1.2 and that s it.:)

[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Well finally got MC. So going to start on fixing lag in games maybe tomorrow. If I get JB kernel out in the next 3-4 hours that is...
[Xperia Play Android Development] smokerman:
yes..i always use 720p version on GB.;)

well,good news then..will be compatible with all JB? if you want to test with MIUIv5 please..if not tell me what i have to change to make it boot. thanks man. :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nuck-TH:
wedgess, plese answer to my previous post(about cyanogenmod kernel).
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
i read some where that you need to chnage a line in ini.rc i think
[Xperia Play Android Development] smokerman:
i read that also from wedgess..but still i dont know if he keeps v8 base kernel and make it better and no multiboot..just a JB kernel only or he is going to maintain v12 base wich is incompatible with many roms. (turbo uir4,jellyz,miuiv5,slimbean etc..)
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Ye will see what I can do about adding in CM7 support to this kernel.

Really doesn't work on all those ROMs, I know about MIUI and tried but keep getting FC's, I contacted Dan also but same, Its strange though works on other xperias but not on PLAY??

service shelld /system/xbin/shelld
class main

Should be added to init.rc.
[Xperia Play Android Development] xpinux:
thats good news wheyyyyyy nice wedgess take your time and make a perfer kernel :) and if you can think about removing some governors and scheluders.Also i would like to question if you with this kernel can give some more boost to cpu about ppsspp app for emulating psp better in cpu
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nuck-TH:
wedgess, one more thing: please fix aroma displaying - both in twrp and cwm its halfscreen, but touchzones are fullscreen.
[Xperia Play Android Development] DiamondBond:
1+ that and also please bring back v7 performance!

:)
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Ill see what I can do.

However its not so important to me.

Performance is better in v10 than v7.
[Xperia Play Android Development] abdel12345:
I think he meant v6 but not so sure because in how thread he recommends v7 to everyone. :confused:

Sent from my Xperia Play (r800x)
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Not sure why as v7 was where the lag on games started rite?? V10's performance is better than all previous version IMO.
[Xperia Play Android Development] smokerman:
right..from 7 till 10..v10 is really the best..and i prefer since im not a hard gamer and i can have a great performance in all games i play. just to let you know wedgess in my new rom JB booted fine on lupus v13JB480p.:eek: i didnt make any changes to init.rc..i dont understand why in others cant boot.
[Xperia Play Android Development] DiamondBond:
Ok, but as IMO I think v7 had better performance as I used v6 and upwards of your kernel ans v7 seemed to be the best in performance wise

Also the thread that reports the best antithesis benchmarks states that number 1 kernel is lupus v7 480p which is what I use for gaming...

Weddgess you should maby try ur old kernel,:)

Also in v9 changelog u mention reverted entropy patch, this is probably reducing performance....
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
I haven't forgotten about that, if I get time in the morning I will look into it and try get it in for v2 if not defo v3 ;)

Re-Released v2

Fixed no Under Volting Issue

Tried adding CIFS support let me know if it works

see post #2

Click thanks :good:

and no all governors are still there
[Xperia Play Android Development] sheraro:
Great ! CIFS works well ! I just wonder what's the purpose of slow-work.ko and tun.ko in other kernels since only cifs.ko is necessary to mount things

virtuous is still here
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Good. Glad I could help, thanks for the suggestion. I made a slow-work.ko as well but it doesn't let me insmod it so I don't think its needed. I checked around and noticed some devices need all 3 .ko's others would have cifs.ko and slow-work.ko and some just the cifs.ko. For some other devices it wouldn't work with just the cifs.ko but it works on ours

Sent from my R800i
[Xperia Play Android Development] sheraro:
well good for us :laugh: there is still a nls_utf8.ko witch enable special characters in directories (éèçà) but it's only used by french users like me so it's very optional :cowboy: thanks again for the hard work !

I have a question. a bit silly but I hope someone can remove all doubt. that is exactly what makes zram?? to flash the zram zip which is the role then? :confused: .I do not get from me is that enables a 100 mb swapp await your response .. thanks ..

---------- Post added at 02:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 AM ----------

I have two questions friend ..

what does it do this????

Not 100% sure if it works as I have not tested Could you maybe let me know.

Instructions

- Extract cifsfile.zip

- Save cifs, ko file to your sdcard

- In terminal emulator

- Cd sdcard

- his

- Insmod cifs.ko?????

and secondly that voltages are recommended for this kernel together with the governor & SIO scheduler virtuous?

sorry for the ignorance .. and secondly please fix the voltage problem in the second version of the lupus-gb-v2. :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] sheraro:
cifs is for samba sharing , your shared folder in your PC will be visible in any installed application in your android

1 - save the cifs.ko into the zip-file to /sdcard/cifs/

2 - install cifsmanager

3 - share a folder in your PC : "folder_in_PC"

4 - create a new folder in your SDCARD : "folder_in_Xplay"

5 - configure CIFSmanager like this :

now use a filemanager like "totalcommander" to navigate to /sdcard/folder_in_Xplay and you'll see the files in your PC's shared folder

I don't use voltage changing it's not recommended for stability but if you really want to save battery life try undervolt your minimal frequency to 750
[Xperia Play Android Development] yekasangredevago:
Thank you for the excellent response. I'm UNDERVOLT and these frequencies with setxperia:

The share in case anyone wants to try:

850 - mv @ 134 Mhz

850 - mv @ 184 Mhz

850 - mv @ 249 Mhz

850 - mv @ 364 Mhz

900 - mv @ 460 Mhz

950 - mv @ 576 Mhz

950 - mv @ 768 Mhz

950 - mv @ 806 Mhz

950 - mv @ 921 Mhz

975 - mv @ 1017 Mhz

1000 - mv @ 1113 Mhz

1050 - mv @ 1209 Mhz

1100 - mv @ 1305 Mhz

1150 - mv @ 1401 Mhz

1200 - mv @ 1516 Mhz

1250 - mv @ 1612 Mhz

1300 - mv @ 1708 Mhz

1350 - mv @ 1804 Mhz

1375 - mv @ 1900 Mhz

1400 - mv @ 2016 Mhz

With Governor Virtuous & SIO scheduler

And frequencies of 134 Min - 1017 Max

From my point of view there is no need overclock at these frequencies are very well every game. a minimum lag in GTA 3 but is acceptable .. :)

Stability is very good and the battery heats up very shortly ..

If someone recommends that you discuss undervolting better .. Thanks

I flashed v6 and restored my backup of my rom and i had .79 baseband with unlocked vendor parition but my apps were mostly missing as i had around 200 mb free with v7 and up bedcause of that biiger data paritiion and i cant handle v6's small parition so ill flash v10 now and check out da performance,:)
[Xperia Play Android Development] sheraro:
v10 is the best !

for those who have lags :

-uninstall any app that uses processor time (uccw is a huge one) because even if you have lot of free ram , gaming will suffer from such kind of apps

-free 200+mb of ram before gaming

-oc to 1.2ghz smartass2 sio
[Xperia Play Android Development] iFlasher:
Lol, that does not solve the kernel lag ...
[Xperia Play Android Development] sheraro:
really ? may I know what are your running apps, total free ram and the game you have lag with ?

if lags are in mc4 online only and performance are good with all the other games we can't call it a problem
[Xperia Play Android Development] iFlasher:
The problem is in MC 4, Dungeon Hunters 4, other gameloft games and sometimes in music players (Maybe happens in other unknown games/apps). This lag not happens in V 6 of Lupus, only V 7 and newer. And I not have running other apps when gaming, never.
[Xperia Play Android Development] sheraro:
rom ? free ram ? sdcard class ? free sdcard space ? apps location (data or sdcard or linked in ext2) ? oc ?

-try smartass2 sio

-try to link the game to ext2 , i experienced better performance if an app is in a ext2 filesystem (i have a class4 , and all my games are linked in ext2)

-try another sdcard just to be sure , if you experience problems in music player it could be a sign of a damaged sdcard

-launch the app directly not from xplay game launcher

-if your battery is discharging quickly it could be an alimentation problem , voltage could not be enough to handle the game , try the game while charger connected

but since you have normal performance with v6 , you could simply stick with that version and be happy lol :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] iFlasher:
