Release RF1.5

New in RF1.5:

-Fix for governor switching

(coming from hotplug to a other governor made one core stuck in sleep state , resulting in bad performance and instability).

-3 New governors: "Aggressive" , "Gallimaufry", "Sakuractive".

-Most governors optimized.

(reverted BFQ to V5 version, performance is smoother I think)

-New "Zen" scheduler and most schedulers optimized

-Reduced android logger time.

-Increased readahead (1024kb instead of the default 128kb)

-Included mmc_cap hard brick fix. (Don't know if it is needed on this phone but can't hurt, a lot of samsung phones died this way when wiping data in recovery)

-Controle led brightness

ledmin ; ledmed; ledmax

Controle led brightness:

ledmin ; ledmed; ledmax

Open terminal: su(enter)ledmin(enter) , this will set it to min value , other "ledmed" to medium brightness and ledmax to full brightness.

(for now you need to repeat it after every reboot as it goes back to max (need to figure it out that is also saves a file in init.d so it loads after reboot)

The best ICS stock based kernel i've ever seen.

Specially agressive governor is the best i think.

Re: [KERNEL] CivZ SITHLORD Kernel - for LG ICS roms / New bootloader only

civato,

great kernel and i like the led dim function that solves the little but annoying bright leds :)

currently i am using the sakuractive governor to test stability and battery usage.

thanks (again)

info

RF1.5 is coming with a USB FastCharge function like descibed and made by chad0989.

I say it now , Use at own risk.

Quote from what is does:

I included a app in data that makes it easy for you to toggle between on / off fast charge.

Release ............. soon I hope.

Re: [KERNEL] CivZ SITHLORD Kernel - for LG ICS roms / New bootloader only

Do you mean rf 1.6?you've released 1.5 just a while ago...:confused:

Btw i found out that savagedzen compared to sakuractive is better for me..at least from quadrant standard benchmark...well..it's might be because i'm uv-ed it...:rolleyes:

[LG Optimus 2x] civato:
No I mean RF1.5 fastCharge edition, that is the only difference and I keep a kernel available for now without it.

Because maybe not all people are in favor for it.

So you got 2 edtions= RF1.5 and RF1.5_FC (fastcharge).

EDIT

Also available in OP

USB FastCharge Editions:

Note:

Use at own risk, it is meant to use on car/plain chargers, don't know the effect in the long term.

And I don't know the effect when ussed on a PC usb connection.

I used and using it without problems.

The "FastCharge" app from playstore is installed in data, use it to toggle ON/OFF.

Or use the following terminal commands:

To enable it = echo 1 > /sys/kernel/fast_charge/force_fast_charge

To disable it= echo 0 > /sys/kernel/fast_charge/force_fast_charge

If you use fastcharge on a pc, usb will not be mounted and no data can be received or send.

Based on the work of chad0989 , Pidozz and Pengus77.

I am on dm1.4 with Civz 1.5.flashed it yday....greatly smooth....your creating lovely art pieces for this device....

Just saw a strange thing in the morning today....

See the image attached....battery dropped with a big big drop.....check the drop from 51 to 12.sorry about the wrong red mark....:p

why you compiled with 4.4.3 toolchain and not with Built with GCC 4.6 ?
[LG Optimus 2x] civato:
Because it is a myth that those are so much better, feel free to download source and do it yourself and compare.

There is a nice article here on xda , same source , different tool chains compared with Google toolchain.

Zero difference is the conclusion., just Google it..

RF1.6 beta test

Some beta version, SithLord_RF1.6_24RH_FC_cf-03

Some more tweaks , GPU 3d clock up to 400MHz (default is 300) 2D clock up to 360MHz (default is 300)

RF1.5 GPU clocks are already OC'd a little , 2d and 3d are 350MHz.

Not a final product so can't say if it stable or not , flash only over a existing sithlord kernel.

Don't get me wrong , all the sithlord kernels run at 350 MHz gpu speed . From version 1.1.

Now I just bumded the 3d clock with 50MHz and 10 for the 2D clock.

Nothing changed on the voltage side, so a much higher battery drain is out of the question. What can happen is a lockup . From not beeing stable but it won't happen as the gpu cores build in the tegra should handle 400 without a problem.

Will your score increase, no maybe 5 points but games should run smoother.

Test it , that is what the beta is here for.

I probably add or change some more stuff to final release.

Just want to know the user experience with these gpu settings.

new beta

SithLord_RF1.6_24RH_FC_CF03-beta2.2

changed some clock settings..........and removed other tweaks that maybe had effect on battery.

GPU should be smoother and no lag anymore. 2D stuff should be better.

Remember it is a beta.

Maybe when I do a final release I will make a extreme version and the normal GPU version.

[LG Optimus 2x] spyrosk:
Civato, thank you again for your great kernel.:good:

I am trying to keep up testing all the versions but don't have the time to do it for all of them.

Anyway, I just installed this 1.6 beta 2.2 and seems working great.

I was on your 1.4 32RH version before.

I tried the 1.5 32RH one but went back to 1.4 again.

IMHO 1.5 is a little bit laggy and not that snappy. It also gave me the impression that it took more time for the apps to start.

I always test kernel versions with their default settings, so I can be more fair when comparing the different versions.
[LG Optimus 2x] civato:
Release version

This will probably be RF1.6 final version.

Should be smooth and no lagg , reverted some schedulers.

2D & 3D clocks are now 400MHz instead of the 350MHz of RF1.5 or 300MHz of stock kernel.

Let me know , if not clocks will be reverted to 350 like all sithlord kernels had

[LG Optimus 2x] civato:
I know what is probably causing the difference. I changed some setting in the ram disk.

If you flash RF1.4 and then the latest RF1.6 beta release then you should have no problems.

RF1.4 got a different ram disk setting then RF1.5.

In final release of RF1.6 I will include the ram disk of RF1.4 to make sure it install with the correct ram disk settings.

Yes but as described above it is better coming from RF1.4 because of the ram disk.

I will try to build final release with ram disk included tomorrow.

No , the installation script does this for you.
[LG Optimus 2x] chp2:
Civato, for your information, I've done a special mix with your kernel.

I tried it on a Jelly Bean ROM and that one is the first who works.:highfive:

Well, it's not fantastic since the 2D and 3D is not accellerated and the benchs look like they don't use the GPU (the overall score is divided by 2) but anyway it's the beginning of a new era.

I'm sure you'll work hard to make it fully compatibe with ICS and JB soon.

Have you tried the Xperia Arc part of the forum, more particularly this thread;

I had to unlock my boot loader, then I used a one-click root made for this model phone, you must also make sure you have the drivers for your phone and the Android SDK.

Then I flashed a kernel, booted into clockwork mod and made a backup. This is pretty much advised incase something on your phone goes wrong, you can restore it from there as well.

Everything you need to know is on that thread, and you can get to the whole Xperia Arc forum from there.

Hello,

I have One X and I love it. However with the release of the new Galaxy Note 2 I feel like I have Symbian compared to Note 2.

Note 2 seems like having so much more features than One X, a bigger screen and a better battery life.

I don't mind the size of Note 2, but is it really a much better phone and worth upgrading to or did Samsung's powerful advertising trick me in believing that?

Thank you for any suggestions.

[HTC One X] basd43:
Are you on stock rom? Of so, try a custom one like viperx for better (great) battery life and tweaks.

As for the screen size, ive used cellphones since they were introduced. Seen them go from a 5 pound battery and no screen to a tiny little thing and back again to bigger and bigger screen sizes. Its all a matter of preferences.
[HTC One X] luuranko3:
no there is coming lot of more awesomer devices with faster processor and gpu. and better battery...you should wait like me im getting new phone in octouber
[HTC One X] Shan89:
I'd suggest waiting, i was tempted same as you , nearly bought it .. but then .. i remembered this : Note 2 specs: SAME old big ass chip (mali 400) which btw performs worse then on S3 since it requires more power for gaming then S3, anyhow it's also based on a9 tech which is nowdays old , so basicly and literally all what you'll be upgrading is SCREAN SIZE and battery life, tho HoX battery life just went crazy for me after i got jelly bean ( 2 days ago ) and with viper x i pushed 7hrs 30+ mins in overall 36hrs of usage, other then battery and screen the only other *cool* stuff you're getting are simply APPLICATIONS .. which you can put on hox as well by simply exploring a little bit on web and some sites who contain sucha apps , i can't post site names here but just type *apk* you should find something if is the apps that got you amazed with note 2. Anyway imho you should wait for note 3 or some other device with newer and way better chip. Think of note 2 like *left overs* the chips that haven't got sold or left so sammy came up with new device but old tech =) anyway this is just my 2 cents ( btw hox still outperforms note 2 in some games with proper software installed on your phone )

Edit - if you never tried custom roms you don't know what you're missing, stock hox and custom rom hox are 2 different phones =) Especially if you use uber tweeked rom like viper, no disrespect to other devs just talking about customisation.

Number 1 - Battery life, the Note 2 has 3100mAh battery (moderate to heavy use - 2 days vs the HOX of just nearly 24hours - on stock ROM) not keen on custom roms, too much niggles reason why they are updated frequently by devs. I did put CM JB 4.1 as a daily driver)

Number 2 - Comes with Stock JB 4.1.1

Number 3 - 5.5 inches Super Amoled with Corning gorilla glass II

---------- Post added at 05:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:44 PM ----------

No offense but you sound like a fanboy/girl in your case.

You pointed out nothing speciall about note 2 really.

Battery life obviously is better not only cuz of bigger battery but also because amoled screen which drains battery slower then super LCD, on the other hand SLCD2 is much brighter , sharper , better looking display then any display due time. Alos we must not forget note is barly old 2-3 months while hox is around a year old almost.

Out of the box Jb is nothing special as well imho, hox got his JB update and it's better optimised then what samsung did with their JB. ( or you forgot samsungs Sudden death bug )

I don't see the point of pointing out the screen size, that is more like a personal preference what ppl like and what ppl don't like not everyone want a phone that comes with a purse. Nor everyone like cartonish collors. Btw hox also uses gorila glass 2

Again APPS , which can be easily replaced or added into any android phone by adding 3rd party apps. Again relevant thing.

I guess i only agree with you on the camera.

And things you probably forgot about hox vs note 2

Better screen , better design , better build quality , hell even better GPU , you might not realise but note is also using mali 400 which is outdated ( not saying tegra 3 is not ) but the point is that same chip was used in s2,note 1, s3 , note 2 just being overclocked, another proof of samsung cheapness. Anyway the point in here is or *suggestion* to the OP that note 2 is not worth upgrading or spending another 600$ just to literally gain bigger display and battery while buying same old a9 chip, there are much much better upcoming devices then hox or note together with the same price or even less. Anyway just my 2 cents

All went very well software was working well but the phone has very low signal now and don't want to connect to 3g,4g,lte etc. only sometimes appears the Edge symbol and G but its very slow. So Im worried I have been using this phone for 1 month more or less. I really don't know how to fix it I hope someone can help me. I attached some pictures in case some 1 can see something rare.
