[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Odd. Mine worked fine - I had to try and salvage as much data onto my portable hard drive as possible before erasing /sdcard/ prior to flashing back to regular LiteROM 0.4.

I had to go the other way - when I made my USB cable, I took Sense_ID (brown wire) to ground (black) at micro USB-B plug's solder side - for Samsung USB cable, it's easy - solder a bridge from the pin to soldered wire at (B) - the ground point is near Sense_ID pin on this one (and then cut big plug off and solder the wires into USB hub, one at a time taking note that it's the same wire color as before). No resistor or any electrical trick. Wikipedia will show you what pinout the micro USB should be (you should do with smaller USB plug as that's where you want tweaked) and there are few DIY USB-OTG DIY on this forum.

DC converter will be switched on while Sense_ID gets pulled down so you get 5 Volts flowing from micro USB port on SGH-I927 to the hardware. I would recommend "Y" USB cable for hard drive or DVD drive so you can feed extra juice to it, to avoid smoking the transistor in DC converter.

Also... Even my USB hard drive disappeared altogether eventually. It was so annoying.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] inthepit:
storage not accessible here also in R5
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Ahh... It's definitely strange. I guess emmc bug's now well-known... T-T
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
I included some expirimental stuff for CM9 .... ill upload a fixed version as soon as I have time :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Evil Alex:
Great, looking forward to it! :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
Done :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Evil Alex:
Just gave R5.1 a try and the first thing I notice is wi-fi not working... Back to R4.1 :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] kick buttowski:
Camera crashes upon opening, shows a roaster about media scanner running and just dies
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
are you on 5.1 ? ... wifi is not working ... im gonna see
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
try 5.2 :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Evil Alex:
Downloading now, I am on my break anyway ;)

-----EDIT-----

A quick look suggests everything works: BLN, USB-storage, and WiFi :)

Good job!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
finding any problems :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Evil Alex:
No, see the edit in my previous post ;)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] VinayS:
flashed.. No Issues so far

Wi-Fi Working, MTP and USB Storage too..
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
Works fine for me, even at full overclock, thanks!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] kick buttowski:
5.2 crashes on gallery, works taking pictures
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
i dont think its the kernel ....
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Kombatant:
Yup, definitely not the kernel. Thanks for the update thegreatergood, I've had the kernel for the past 10 hours and I think battery life is noticeably better :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Ditto. Definitely not the kernel - I just use the aftermarket app, lgCamera because it's much better.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] gtdRR:
Thanks everything is working great.

One question though, has anyone gotten BLN to work with Handcent SMS? I already tried changing the flash frequency to normal.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
Not sure if it matters, but quick system info says scaling of second core stops at 1000 MHz, even though it says it runs at 1280 MHz.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Hmmm. I'll look. It's peciular enough to warrant a closer look.

---------- Post added at 03:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:20 PM ----------

Same here. Core_0 CPU just went to sleep a lot whilst Core_1 stuck at 1.0GHz nearly all the time. I checked it using No-Frills CPU tuner - in its statistic list.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Evil Alex:
Have not noticed this, though the stats in Sytem Tuner say CPU 0 is running at 216Mhz most of the time, and CPU 1 is offline most of the time. All other frequencies are hardly used, but have been active for both CPU's at some point. I'm using the OnDemand governor, and am on R5.2
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
I'm looking into it ... :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
hello, the touch sensitivity is a bit too high for me, can it be adjusted?

many thanks!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
I think there is a ".git" folder in the rootfs. This is causing issues to AIDE and possibly other programs.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Hmmm. I have somehow managed to piss Android OS off... I figured I will search for the ".git" folder via ES File Explorer while in the root directory "/" and after it's done with an warning, "Sorry, files and/or folder not found." the whole root directory disappeared, even though I can still access FAT32 partition on the NAND flash.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
In my case i had a .git folder in / which made aide think the whole filesystem was under git. Removed the folder and now it's all right. It will probably be back when i reboot, though.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thescot33:
I think it's a bug with es...the latest update fixes it...if my memory is correct

PeACe
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Which update? I am curious.

EDIT: NVM, I used JRummy's Root Explorer, and I found .GIT, and it seems this folder's a leftover from C++ compilation.

---------- Post added at 01:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 PM ----------

Yup... It came back. I doubt it is deleted anyways, no matter how and what.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thescot33:
Es explorer 1.6.2.1 is the lastest version and I believe they fixed the problem of losing root after performing a search
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Tried this version, and the root directory disappeared mysteriously. So, I tried JRummy Root Browser and it's there. Doubt the GIT can be deleted permanetly. At least I still have root.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thescot33:
Cheers! Before updating to the latest version I wasn't able to view the root directory after a search was completed and had to exit out of app and go back in. Hasn't happened to me since the latest update
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Interesting. I had to try the other browser, though. Sometimes I wonder why ES Explorer refused to touch the hidden files/folders. But at least I now get what you meant about the GIT folder.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thescot33:
Yeah sorry about my wording...I thought about it after I posted that I should have wrote I couldn't view root directory instead of losing root...but I'm still a new user and the sitw wouldn't let me edit my post incase of spam or something like that...sorry for the confusion

---------- Post added at 04:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:37 PM ----------

I guess it isn't fixed...just did a search in root and now it's gone??? sorry
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
Correct me if i'm wrong, but the rootfs is a ram fylesystem, so you can delete something but, as soon as you reboot, it will be back because the fs is recreated from the image.

Also keep in mind that files starting with a dot are hidden and may not be visible by some applications.

Solution is to rebuild the rootfs image without the .git :)

Or, make an init.d script which deletes it.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
It's okay. No biggies. You're kind of correct about ES, though. I kind of find it strange that the root directory disappeared after the search. Maybe Android doesn't like the apps trifling with it.

---------- Post added at 02:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:55 PM ----------

Elban, that was what I thought also. It can be a swap partition folder anyhow. You can be right about that.

EDIT: I got curious about what's in GIT folder, and I touched "description" file (opened as a text file) and it looks more like C++ re-compilation aids - it mentioned "repository" word in it - something like compiling from the source codes.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
thegreatergood, is this rom will be the base rom for the CM9/CM10 you are working on? or it will only support the stock rom.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
It's a stock ROM modified to be smaller than the regular stock ROM (200MB smaller). CM9 or CM10, it doesn't matter because it was mention that the CWMR chain-loads to the kernel (in a way it's already a linux loader). I could be wrong but I read about it since July as I wanted my phone to be 100% unlocked.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
i said rom but i meant the kernel, i'm stupid :)

so this is a stock based kernel and the cm9/cm10 will be based on aosp kernel. maybe we can import the part of the siyha kernel for galaxy s2,

i know that dorminx update his kernel for the s2 and is based on siyha kernel - that support dual boot rom even :) - maybe after the first version of cm9/10 will be out and dman and company will only work on updating and fixes they should focus on import stuff form that kernel that will make the glide more powerful.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Close. But the kernel in LiteROM 0.4 and here are not 100% stock, though. It's somewhat closer to the metal, if you think about the features thegreatergood put into the Linux kernel he cooked for LiteROM (it even works with any I927 ICS ROMs, even AT&T stock one).

EDIT: CM10 Jelly Bean's kernel is already powerful and almost "elastic", meaning you can set up both CPU and GPU, as well as few general performance settings. You can still customize the CM10 kernel itself, though.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] hazard1nc:
LiteKernel 5.2 works fine on my phone, my overclocked features are locked, likely due to an app installed by me, locking me out of overclocking features, won't go above 1ghz.

Samsung SGH-i927

CWMR Touch v4.0.0.1

Keyboard fix

LiteKernel v4.1
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Necc86:
Frequencies are broken in 5.2

Core0 is clocked at 1.2GHz, while Core1 is clocked at 1.0GHz (maximum values) by default.

You will need an application witch can change the frequency of each core independently.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :

[Samsung Captivate Glide] spyke555:
I've been trying to go extreem on the battery savings and so have been underclocking my phone with great sucess. Only problem is I've not been able to set frequencies below 760 MHz. System tuner gives me an error when trying to set max frequency to 750 or below. Looks like the governor can go all the was down to 216 though.

Did notice that there is both 760 and 750 MHz settings. Was this. Intentional? Anyone using a different tuning app seeing this as well?

Spyke555
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
I suspect something within the Rom is causing this ( cm9 doesnt have this) ... And as of yet i havnt been able to find it....
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
thegreatergood, will you post the new kernel version here as well? many thanks!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
done... :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
Many thanks! :)

Running it now, on stock ics lh2. Looks like the second core frequecy is fixed. The ".git" folder is still there, though.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
tonite I had 40% battery drain with the new kernel, while the old one did just 5 to 10%.

15% android os, 15% cell standby, 9% phone idle.

do you need some more information?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] surfturtle:
Please consider including the 2-way Call Recording patch.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
thegreatergood, what's the difference from 5.2 to 5.3?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
some minor fixes ... trying to make core 0 and core 1 work together ...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
I don't think we should be worrying about trying to get the CPU cores to work together (that's one thing NVIDIA lied about - by my observation, the CPU cores have their own core PLL clock), as it's mostly dictated by the Linux kernel's CPU syscall and/or the on-die ARM firmware.

EDIT: Not to mention they are quite touchy little SOB, at least thegreatergood have somehow managed to tame this weird and insane beast. :thumbup: Good work!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
maybe thats from cell standby (poor service area , phone having to work harder for cell service) is it usually that high, although ... (i wouldnt say that that is high) ?

ill look into it ... but right now i'm more interested in helping getting cm9/cm10 to work properly
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
The values were pretty unusual for my phone. But last night the drain was normal, so it might have been just a coincidence (a problem with some app, maybe).

I'll report if i get any weird battery usage again.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
ill look into a better way of managing apps on screen off ... i usually get es task manager and set it to kill most apps on screen off .... makes everything a lot snappier ...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bobbinthreadbare:
unless you know how to setup a task killer, they can do more harm than good. most people blindly kill everything, included processes needed by the system. this causes android to just relaunch them immediately or not long after, using more cpu time in the end than just leaving it alone. if you exclude everything that needs to be running/will just relaunch anyways, you can safely use a task killer to exit apps you are no longer using. personally i would just use the recent apps list to exit stuff you arent using. swiping them away closes them. apps like autostarts can be useful too to stop apps from loading when your phone starts up. a lot of apps you dl that dont need to start at boot like to anyways. its kind of like msconfig for your phone.

unrelated but ive been complaining about a loss of battery life ever since the leaked ics rom came out. i finally figured out why - something called l2_hsic is causing wakelocks. i searched but couldnt find much besides others with the same problem and not many answers from those trying to examine it. i think its something in the rom that will go away once we get dmans cm10 but i cant pin it down. i installed this kernel hoping it might help but not much, but it seems to be working well so ive left it on. thanks for your work. :)

edit: finally got around to setting up bln, it works great with google voice. ive wanted this for a long time. thanks!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Adam77Root:
Regarding the l2_hsic battery drain: I remember that ardadtat had same issues with his kernel for the R and he managed to solve it. Check out his thread in the R dev section for more information.

Edit: This is my 300th post. :D

Sent from my GT-I9103
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
I do not like to use task killers, i prefer let android do it its way.

I wrote the post about battery drain because the first night after installing 5.3 i had an anormal drain, but luckly it didn't repeat the following night; last night it did it again, though.

Still, the glide has the faster drain of all my recent phones, including sgs2, galaxy nexus and nexus one. Do you experience the same? Was it the same in gingerbread? I upgraded to ics as soon as i received the phone so i don't know.

Long story short: i still don't know if it has anything to do with this kernel :)

Edit: its bln: bln_wake_lock took 12 hours :)

It's set to dim after 30 min so there must be something.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bobbinthreadbare:
the battery life on dman's 2.3 rom was fine for me. easily triple what i've always seen on ics due to these wake locks. i haven't been using my glide every day or i'd probably have downgraded. i've been using better battery stats and that l2 thing always ends up causing 10 hours of wakelocks on 12hrs of being on.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
I do not have that i2 wakelock problem (never seen), but I do have the bln wake lock problem at times.

BTW downgrading to GB is so sad...

Let's wait for CM10, then ;)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Kombatant:
By the way, for those of you who want to make BLN work with SMS as well, follow the instructions in this post; worked beautifully for me: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22618689&postcount=6 -

Just make sure you also disable the "wake screen when sms arrives" setting.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
I'm on interactive and I believe my problem (which may not be the same of others) comes from bln: as if bln keeps the phone awake for hours.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] kick buttowski:
Using the same governor in R4 and R5 yields different battery stats, R4 makes my bat last more
[Samsung Captivate Glide] VinayS:
+1 ,

Completely agree with you
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bobbinthreadbare:
last night into today my battery is behaving properly since i first flashed ics. i left my phone on over night for 12hrs after updating to 5.3 and that l2_hsic thing took 10 mins of cpu out of that 12hrs or so. deep sleep was over 11hrs (screen on was only 5 mins). so i charged it again before going out and battery has been superbly better than im used to. im almost afraid to turn it off fearing it might bring back the problem. so at the moment all is good.

edit: so after all night again, its still fine. until i shut it down and do some more tests i really doubt its the kernel. after reading more about others with the same wake lock issue i'm starting to think it has to do with me not having a sim card in the slot, because i use my devices exclusively on wifi. some people have speculated its constant searching for service even in airplane mode. on android 2.3* i used to do the *#*#4363#*#* or whatever combination to get myself into the developer menu and manually disable the phones cell radio. but on ics that same menu seems to be unavailable. but that might explain why i'm one of the few complaining about battery life since i bet all you guys have actual service and stuff..only a thought so far.

but seeing my battery life yesterday/today, i could definitely live with this. and i know theres more i could do with undervolting and stuff yet too..i really hope my issue has nipped itself. until today i was literally losing 15% in an hour of moderate use. screen off would still be pointing to 6hrs or so max before my battery kicked it. now i've had it on for 12hrs and i'm down to 80%. love it.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lambgx02:
Is anyone else getting that strange effect of the standby animation flashing brightly just before shutting off? Seems like it might have something to do with backlight control.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] guillermogc:
Sorry to bother with this newby question but it's been a while since I've flashed a kernel.

I can't remember how to flash a boot.img kernel. The last time I've flashed a kernel it was with Odin but this boot.img I can't remember how to do it.

I've been searching the forums with no luck.

Can someone point me to a guide about this?

Thank you!!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
Why don't you just flash the zip in recovery? :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] gtdRR:
I see this but not all the time, sometimes it even doesn't do the CRT animation. Currently on R5.2
[Samsung Captivate Glide] guillermogc:
Thank you!!... I feel really stupid right now hahaha
[Samsung Captivate Glide] luquiyahni:
When upgraded to R6 everything worked great except that i lost sound on calls. Couldnt hear or be heard. Even in speaker mode. Went back to 5.3 and everything seems to be ok.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] VinayS:
Release of R6 Kernel

thegreatergood has released R6 Kernel -- OP is updated

Changes
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
Same here no sound on Speaker or from mic on version R6. Called myself and could not hear myself on either phone. Version 5 seems to suck a lot of juice I agree. I am installing Version 4 to see if battery life gets better. V4 does fix sound issue on calls that worked on 5.3 as well.

JB
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
this has something to do with the voodoo sound integration .... i could remove it till i get it fixed ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
Yes please, calling is definitely more important.

Also please remove the ".git" folder (if it's in your image).

Thanks :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
thegreatergood are you tiring to make this kernel also be compatible with the CM10 future release?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
Would probably be best. Thanks for all your work by the way.

Oh by the way, I like the New animation "ANDROID" on boot up of version R6. Where did you find it?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
thats the default .... its actually not even included in the kernel as far as i know .... i basicly disabled the samsung bootanimation and enabled the android one, allowing for custom bootanimation.zip in /data/local/
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
it is compatible .... ill upload a CM10 version for u guys ;)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
will do ....

[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
better battery stats .... my battery life is good :s .... there seems to be a serious problem with yours .... One thing i've noticed is that CWM backups make a blobs folder in sdard/backup somewhere which has so many files that media scanner runs alot longer than it should ... i've found that it actually drains battery ... but ... the only way to know for sure whats causing the drain is bbs ...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bobbinthreadbare:
Could you release another version of 6.x without the GPU OC?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
the galaxy r has been safely clocked to 410 ... it has the same hardware ... if you want ill reduce it to 400 ... it would be too much extra hassle always releasing so many different versions ... each would have to be changed and compiled and packaged ...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bobbinthreadbare:
It isn't about being safe, I just have no need for it to be OC'd. If it were optional through apps like SetCPU, cool, but since its coded to that, I'll stick with 5.x. Speed is one thing the Glide seems to have plenty of, no point in lessening the lifespan of the device for a gain I'll never take advantage of.

Might also be worth looking into whatever franco did recently to allow over/underclocking of the GPU on the fly with his kernel (using the terminal). Right now settings still revert to default upon reboot but I haven't seen anyone else do that before.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
i know i've seen that and thought about it ... i'll see if its possible ...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] braintweaker:
Noticed that too. The blob version of nandroid seems to be the one in CWM version 6. Also, it makes difficult to delete backups. The 5.x makes them in a normal way, with .bin files for partitions.

Maybe the solution is adding .nomedia file to nandroid folder?
