This kernel is bad a$$ that's all I know sorry for mentioning anything about quadrant scores I'm so glad we got a kernel dev this early in our gn2 dev it took a while to get a decent kernel on the gs3 and months to get a good kernel dev on gs3 andreilux Thank you for this you made a great phone better

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hero_is_Over:
Thank you much for the response. And yes while you are obviously a more complete kernel developer i have made various leaps in the community and have code featured in AOSP kernels. I'm not a kernel specialist I take time out of my very busy day to try and improve our phones as a whole. And as far as qualitative work I guess time will tell. Instead of bloating kernels with unnecessary runtimes I believe a clean and concise kernel can prove to be more effective for the general populous. Thank you again for the advice and I will surely fix the capacitive keys with it.

And I have not done any debugging at all I was just waiting for a response from someone who has successfully tuned down all the issues.

Thanks. Have a merry day

Been good so far! I've also been playing with the governor settings too. An up_threshold of 90 will keep the phone in the lowers freqs a bit more. I have a few other governor tweaks I've done, but let me see if they help today. No noticeable lag from the changes I've made though :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] honki24:
Thanks Viperboy. I dropped my 200Mhz, 800MHz, and 1.8GHz voltages to about 25mV greater than what you have in that list. My CPU spends the most time at those frequencies anyways, and I'm seeing no problems either. I'm not touching the governor yet as I like to keep up_threshold high so that it ramps up a bit faster.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cherylbaker:
Do not know much about the voltage things other than sometimes you're phone won't work cause of then. . So my question is what is the point of changing them. I am at 1.8 now default settings and it works fine. .so what do I gain by changing them.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] -viperboy-:
Less power the phone has to use to operate. You can play with the voltages in setCPU without worrying about harming your device. Just make sure you don't check "set at boot' until you're sure your voltages are good. Worst case, it will just lock up or reboot on you if you set a voltage too low.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] honki24:
Viperboy - I don't think SetCPU changes the voltages until you reboot. After you click "save" and look at your voltage list it shows something like "current" and "saved". Until you reboot the "current" doesn't match "saved". At least for me.

Okay - so these were supposed to be unrelated posts but XDA combined....

I noticed a problem with this kernel. I was just trying to move a file from my phone to my windows 7 machine and it wouldn't work. I have the phone in MTP mode just as before and the popup on windows comes up just as before. I'm even able to browse the files just as before but I can not copy/paste/open any files that are either on my phone or on my card from my windows explorer. I just flashed back to my backup that I made before this kernel install and checked that I could move files and I can again. This is isolated to the kernel I believe. I am on CleanRom 2.1, rooted, debugging on in both cases. Only difference is the kernel.

edit: I just cleared cache/dalvik and flashed the kernel again - again, I cannot move or open files that are on my phone or SD card. I can delete them though. Very weird. Going back to stock kernel for now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] t4d73:
Wonder why?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lovekeiiy:
this is probably built into the TouchWiz framework. Thus, we can at least use directory bind to get apps off the internal storage.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] chunology:
Probably to force you to shell out the extra cash for the 32 and 64 gb versions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattsm:
Ya, it is not the kernel, this kernel has been rock solid. Been using it since release. I dealt with dropped calls before, most of the time it is sprint doing something with their towers. I spent 3 weeks wih tech support fixing their sh!t. Fixing a tower issue they didn't even know where that tower was. Gotta love the sprint techs.

Are there any plans to incorporate Voodoo sound into this kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] CorruptionDee:
I do t know if this is relevant here, as I haven't had much success running it on this kernel, but Zedomax's script titled "Apps2SD" works like a charm for me. I'm on Mack's ROM using the stock kernel.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] shiftr182:
The sound mods in the kernel were based on voodoo sound. This is just a lot more customizable. Read about the kernel in the n7100 thread and he talks about it more.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] z31k:
I have been using this zip on my 10.1 and on my note 2. My question is. Does it finally work on this kernel??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] CorruptionDee:
I haven't tried in a while. Perhaps I had to follow a different step as far as running the script, but I couldn't get it to work with the Perseus Kernel. I tried it briefly when I tested the Whompasaurus ROM, and running the script made no changes. It simply wouldn't detect my 64GB SD card.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] t4d73:

Anyone know why with default scheduler at 1.8ghz my quadrant scores are so low ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] t4d73:
How low?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
1706 on quadrant and 1560 on geek bench 2 which I get 1950 on a stock 1.6 kernel
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] t4d73:
Stock kernel? And I thought you were at 1.8ghz. Here's mine at 1.8.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
I got 7464 typo. Why are my geek bench scores so low

That's not a real bad score on quadrant. As far as geek bench, I'm not sure but it looks like a paid app and I don't have any need for it.

well i formatted it anyway now but its slower which sucks and i'm not sure about it recognizing my card i don't remember.

I was on CM 10 but noticed it didn't support exFAT and quite frankly i love the simplicity of CM however battery life is better on stock lol.

Color optimization to me personally i think looks better on stock than any of these custom kernel's which sucks; because i love the features that custom kernel's have to offer.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Skripka:
Fat32 is recommended, but not necessarily necessary... I'm running PACMan roms, and I still haven't fat'd my sd card. YMMV, mind you.

yeah for me CM10 said it was damaged, so i format it however it wouldn't because it said unsupported file type or whatever.

stock rom

Can I flash this on stock rom, I root with c.f. root and installed twrp that all and don't want to try custom roms. Also if it works can I use trickster mod app to overclock cpu and gpu
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coiledwire:
Yes on rooted stock with twrp.

You get an app called Stweaks when you install the kernel. That app can overclock for you.

what the above said is true. I've been using Persues on deoxidezied stock since about day 2 of owning the phone, which was towards the end of November.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] budde2:
I have a question for those that are overclocked at 17 or higher. How is the battery life being clocked higher than stock and does it affect the health of the processor? Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] guisar:
I use the 5g profile from elsewhere in the thread and typically have 70% left at the end of the day. I also system tuner pro to adjust voltages etc. The saber kernel over clocks even more but I had much worse battery life (qualitative sample one one....) and lots of halts so I'm back here and happy.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] CorruptionDee:
I really miss the Perseus kernel, but I really need my SD card swap script to make sure that my 64GB sd is recognized as internal storage because my data far exceeds the internal memory. I've heard that the script will work if I reformat the card as FAT32, but I'm not sure.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lovekeiiy:
you could try something like BinderDirectory or FolderMount. I've read BD is hit and miss on 4.2 based ROMs. Not sure on FM, but the developer is still active on it.

FAT32 has a limit of 4GB files. May not be an issue overall, but some media files, such as MKV can exceed.

You were using 33.6? The latest is 36.3. I don't understand why you guys are having those issues. Maybe because I'm just on a stock rooted rom? I follow the other note 2 and gs3 forums for this kernel also and this is the 1st time anyone has reported these issues. Weird.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] t4d73:
You are right about the volume being low on latest version but if you just turn it up is actually very loud. I couldn't believe it was a phone lol! For some reason the stock settings had the sliders way down. Don't know why but if you just move them it's unbelievable. The latest kernel works great otherwise. Also there are sliders for the earphones as well below the external speaker ones.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] r80ies:
Audio cuts out

I have been having some audio problems when playing music of my phone using 36.1 and it was seemed worse in 36.3. The problem I have is when the music gets loud at any given point the volume the phone will stop playing music and subsequently reset the volume. I have played with the EQ and the volume sliders and disabled all stock EQ settings. Has anyone else experienced this? I tested using a stock kernel and I my problem didn't replicate, but when I went back to 36.3 it was back, so then I went to 36.1 and it the volume reset didn't happen as much. It is very strange problem, but if anyone has any suggestions or workarounds I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] coiledwire:
The only suggestion to fix it would be to return your phone back to 100% stock and start over. Don't just use the MC2 one click; use the full restore by Ballard.

There's some screwy gremlin only running around in your phone. Time to wipe it out.

I think he just surprise there hasn't been any updates even for performance improvements and bug fixes. It not always about adding some new feature.

Personally, not that I think it would make a big difference, but if things are that stable, seems like maybe they could expand overclock speeds.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] t4d73:
There are other kernels with higher clock speeds available. And yes it does make a huge difference lol. :D Try them out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lovekeiiy:
I'm aware of the other kernels.

As for my "if doesn't make much difference" comment, I meant it towards observed performance differences from the user, not coding or stability. It would seem feasible that additional clock speeds could be added and still maintain stable performance. We don't notice in application the difference between between 1600 and 1800; maybe a rare app that is especially CPU demanding, and it's not going to be leaps and bounds different. Most just see it in benchmark numbers.

The comment was really just about that there was always something that can be worked on or added, and it was just one possibility out of many. Not necessarily a need or want.

Maybe it's just me, but I'm one if ti's working right, time to tinker and make it better, LOL. It's not always about adding features, but making what is there just better.

Although, I would have assumed there would have been an update for performance or bug fixes.

As for trying out other kernels, not really that interested really. This one works well for my needs. Although, I may try the one that allows dual roms, which I believe based on this kernel anyway.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] solarizde:
