I have tried with both clean flash and directly on cm10-alpha-11 kernel with same issue.

1. Firstly I had flashed v1 of this kernel on cm10-alpha-11 kernel. Battery backup for deep sleep was perfect same as alpha-11. It was average but very much better then default CM10 kernel.

2.Then I had flashed v2 of your kernel over v1 and it was having having heavy batter drain(I didn't noticed any issue of messaging and calling at that time). I had then did clean flash of CM10 and then again on alpha-11 kernel.

3.On clean flash I flashed v3-test1 zip kernel and started facing issue of message sending fail and then sending.... So i flashed v2.1 to check this issue yesterday.

4.Then I came to know the issue of calling on the phone. Caller who calls me gets the usual dial ring but phone don't ring. I had this issue with v2.1. Even i checked about this issue by my self. So I flashed alpha-11 kernel again and the issue gone again.

Note:- I had found usb connection in all the version of this kernel.

However no problem, I m doing clean flash again. Let u tell shoud I flash v3-test3 or v2.1???

Generally i wipe catch and dalvik catch before flashing kernel. If still i find problem i do factory reset before flashing kernel and thought i find problem i do reflash of rom and at last clean flash.

I m good to flash my phone. I manage to boot my phone in any way so i will try to flash with different ways(Not confirm) if I will get time as I didn't find any special procedure of flashing. It will be better if u add a flash procedure in op at least for beginners. Even, may be i m getting problem due to wrong steps. There is no problem if there is not any special procedure of flashing.

@behnameb7

No, exactly because of what rodero95 told you. It seems that the updated drivers work decently only on few devices (panels?).

@rodero95 and @ping_1841

I'm pretty sure I read about these two issues somewhere else, so my kernel hasn't much to do with them. They are probably issues related to the app or the ROM (HAL, gralloc etc...).

I installed Instagram, just to try, and I couldn't replicate this issue. I tried several times, closed the app, switched camera, but nothing. I'm surprised of the fact I didn't notice anything, because that's what I found in my logcat: logcat

I could however replicate this one. It happened only when I tried to upload pictures over 3G, no issues over WiFi. This problem, unlike the other one, seems just a problem of the app, because I couldn't find any error in my kernel log and logcat. Sometimes it works flawlessly.

It's even reported on their help page: I can't upload photos. I'm not saying you are in the situation there described, what I'm trying to say is that if the problem is in their help page, it's not that uncommon. But it's just a supposition. I don't even know if the same thing happens on stock ROMs or with other kernels. In any case I think I won't look into that, sorry.

EDIT:

@androman1507

Flash procedure: reboot recovery, flash zip. Nothing else is required. That's odd by the way.

v2.1 is supposed to be the stable one.

EDIT2: for the USB issue try v3-test3

Re: [KERNEL][CM10] qwerty [12/02/13]

Now that you mention it, I think I also had this problem once when I flashed alpha 11 kernel, I think it disappeared when I flashed the kernel over a clean CM10 install.

Since in the previous test kernel there were basically no changes and that I forgot to include SIO, here v3-test4.

Download:

kernel-qwerty-cm-10-galaxysl-v3-test4.zip

Changelog:

Unmodded battery module (test1)

Changed CPUIdle latencies and thresholds (test1)

Changed kernel config to fix issues with USB (still in testing, no issues till now) (test3)

Added SIO scheduler by Miguel Botón

Disabled variable overclock, 5th OPP (1200 MHz) still available

The reason of the remotion of the variable overclock is that power HAL and DeviceParts don't expect it. Instead of coding them better I simply disabled it, I'm not even using it.

@rodero95 and @ping_1841

Sorry, but I don't know where's the problem. Surely a screenshot is not helpful, at least post some logs. Probably I won't be able to do much.

dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt

If possible, try to make them as short as possible:

That's fantastic!..which version of the kernel that you've flashed to get "1% for nearly 7.5 hrs"?.... I'm on v2.1 and best I can get is 1% for 1hr + on standby

Hi! I've upgraded to the last version, v3-test4, and battery life appears to have improved dramtically! Right now, with wi-fi and 3g on, syncing, after 7h 27m , battery is at 72%

v3-test5

Download:

kernel-qwerty-cm-10-galaxysl-v3-test5.zip

Changelog:

Changed CPU idle latencies and thresholds (test1)

Changed kernel config to fix issues with USB (still in testing) (test3)

Added SIO scheduler by Miguel Botón (test4)

Disabled variable overclock, 5th OPP (1200 MHz) still available (test4)

Changed sequence of OPP switching to prevent "hickups"

Modified battery module

See the linked posts to know the reasons of the changes.

It seems that the cause of the higher power consumption that vishal observed (I can't quantify it) in my older releases was the evolved sysfs interface for the variable OC. This was also confirmed by Fertz70 (thanks for the feedback) in his previous post, since that was the major change in v3-test4. I don't know why is that happening, but I've already decided to disable it, even if the reason is another (v3-test4 post).

The difference is probably noticeable only keeping the device in stand by for long times.

The battery monitor driver is different from the one used in my old releases. Now by default it behaves like the unchanged one, but you can modify it from DeviceParts. Default delay = 2000ms. samsung-battery will now last at least 1second, the delay you can adjust from DeviceParts is added to it.

With 2000ms you get 3000ms of wakelock (as in the original driver).

If you have already flashed another release of 'qwerty' and you want the default behaviour, you have to do it manually from DeviceParts (just press the "Default" button). I could have done that from the updater-script, but I don't like the idea of changing a user defined setting.

I also removed several unused sysfs files.

If you are going to test this build to post some feedback, please set the delay to 2000ms.

Hopefully, this is the last test build before the release of v3.0. Tell me if you notice any difference from v3-test4 (performance/battery life/whatever) or if it's exactly the same as the previous one.

Technically, the patch I took from BCK should improve the OPP switching (frequencies and voltages scaling), but I couldn't notice any difference.

Kernel patches attached.

@wee2wee

He was talking about a private build I made to find the reason of the higher stand by power consumption he observed. As I wrote above, I found it and v3-test4 and v3-test5 should be fine.

kernel 3.0.8 is out.. =)

i hope you can help to extract it from alpha 5.. thanks
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
Sorry but I think I should have to report this earlier but stil I reporting it right now :)

Its related to test 4 build. I am facing an old issue of 2g net that I had mentioned few days earlier with ur old release kernels. When I activate 2g net then sometime 2g internet indicate that it is activated but problem is net can not be connected. I have to reboot my phone. :) Hope ur this build 5 will help me to solve this issue. :) Also I am eagerly waiting for kernel 3.0 with SOD issue solved.

Right now I am using ur test kernel v2.1 no OC kernel which u had PM me. And believe me its the best kernel I have used so far. Not a single problem with it. I am posting my screenshot of battery life. Its amazing :D I think u should release that kernel to people who dont want OC and good battery life :)

If I remember correctly, this patch caused the phone to reboot when on WiFi if applied to BCK :cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] androman1507:
I am using v3test5, good so far. baterry back up is little less compared to vishal's pic shown above,but my battery is very old, if one is using newer battery compared to mine he will have battery back up same as shown in vishal's pic.:) But no other bugs which i mentioned before. Even usb is working perfectly with this build. :good:

Generally i use ondemand governor and cfq I\O scheduler. Let me know if other pairs of governor and I\O scheduler can give much better performance.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
hey buddy ur GB kernels were legendary kernels which worked really well for us :) We all will be very thankful if u work on kernel 3.0 sources of dhiru so that some basic problems can be solved to make it more stable. Right now if we can at least able to solve blacklight and SOD problem then I am sure it will be useful for all people who want to use alpha 5 rom for their full time daily use :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loSconosciuto:
Ok, I added the link, but it shouldn't be different from the regular v3.

No reboot till now, but I haven't been using WiFi much lately.

I couldn't notice any difference with it applied, so I'll probably revert it, just to be on a safe side.

Thanks for the heads up!

Yes, probably it depends on the battery. 6 hours of "screen on" time is something impossible for me.

I use what I set as default: ondemand and Deadline.

I've also used for a lot of time smartassV2, SIO and for a while NOOP, in different combinations. Usually NOOP and deadline are the suggested schedulers for flash memories (SIO is something between them).

I also tried to use a tweaked conservative. It provided a good user experience, but it was slow in changing frequencies.

Anyway there are not so many choices, try them all ;)

I never switch mobile data off (the few times I did that, I had no issues) and I've always avoided roaming, so I don't where's the problem. I'm not even sure it's a kernel issue, but I can't say anything without informations.

Hello my dear cm10 Co-users.

I'm happy using this rom, and I'm going to tell why.

cm10. 1 camera. Not frequently using it, for that I've got my Nikon, but happy now with the settings and look. Thanks for hdr. It's works, but I'll better not use it :) Filming is fine, other features works as well. To say the truth, I'm using the camera more often to scan a price tag with other apps :)

Brightness timeout in dark environment. Really happy you managed it, that the first rom where this feature works. I had in mind to ask for it, but this one was in the end of the list. Anyway, happy its working.

locking apps memory. Both work properly (1st and 2nd). Locked as 2nd exchange mail app, works as it should be. But its too heavy,so i removed it. Bravo.

Alarm clock. I'm guessing I've found the answer why I have problems with it. Take a look to ringing timeout without dismissing. By default it's 10 mins. With this setting alarm clock works properly. I had changed it to other value, let's say 20 or 30mins, alarm rings, but screen is not waked, buttons are inactive. The only way is to dismiss is restart or battery removal. Can someone confirm if am I right or wrong? By the way, can you add vibration to countdown? Sometimes at night I need to warm up my baby's food, so I need 3mins till proper temperature and don't want to wakeup rest of the family :)

Or to park car for 1hrs period and get the right moment in croudy environment :)

Battery life. Got the new battery, so now I've got nearly 3, 5 hrs of screen time. That's nearly gingerbread's time (nearly 5 hrs with my usage).

Bluetooth. Thanks for miracle. Sound is more clearer and voices now without metallic trashes. Not as it was on gb, but nearly perfect comparing to situation before. Don't know what you did, but that's working :) the peeps are with noises, but after pick-up situation is way better :thumbup:

To perfection is left only two-way call recording and hw composer. Don't know what that would add, but heard its a good thing :)

Regards, happy user

Request:

Can any of you flash kernel-cm-10-20130729-galaxysl-test.zip and tell me if there's any issue with the backlight while the screen is off (if you are following the developement of the kernel 3.0, I'm talking about the flashes).

Flash kernel-cm-10-20130729-galaxysl-restore.zip to restore the kernel.

UPDATE: I forgot to mention that these kernels are for my CM10, kernel 2.6.35 (sorry [MENTION=4844212]Ottonet[/MENTION])

Patch applied.

Thanks.

[MENTION=2523335]Unknown_2517[/MENTION]

I'm aware of the audio/video sync issue, but I didn't have the time to look into that. I don't even know what's the cause. Things are better for 480p videos, but probably not perfect.

[MENTION=2606021]cukierkas[/MENTION]

The alarm clock is still working fine for me. Try to clear its data, even if probably that doesn't help. It's a really weird issue and I can't debug it since I can't reproduce it.

I thought about adding the vibration to the countdown, I'll see what I can do. Maybe asking for this feature on Jira would be better. The vibration is not implemented even in the newer Android 4.3 DeskClock (cm-10.2).

I've also thought about adding the support for two way call recording, not that I'm interested, I'd just like to try to do it.

However I should learn a bit more about tinyalsa and most importantly how stock ROMs do that (which audio path should be used etc...). It requires some work and it's not a priority. At least the kernel code should be already in place.

HW composer probably requires too much work, I think I won't even try to fix it.

Hi [MENTION=4349695]loSconosciuto[/MENTION].

Flashed once, then twice.

Every time got stuck at bootlogo. Unresponsive device. Had to pull battery to reboot.

Then I flashed your 20130715 kernel and booted ok.

Now. I can be wrong, and a lot of experimentation must be done, but guess what? Flickering has gone!

I tested it beforehand, and it took less than thirty seconds to observe two or three faint flickers, now I have my phone in front of me, in standby since no less than 10 minutes, and it stays totally off. No flickers.

I have come to the point that I feel uncomfortable with no vital signs from my phone, is that a SOD?

I wake it... it comes to life.

Look, I must repeat myself, I COULD REALLY BE WRONG, and tomorrow I'll apooogise for being overenthusiastic, but it even seems MUCH more responsive!

I am sure that if there is any kind of explanation to all this, then you are the one who can explain it. I positively cannot.

Anyway, thanks a lot, hope you can get some useful clue from my test.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
Hello there. Yes, clearing data of clock helped. For meantime :)

About kernel you just introduced. As I presume, its for those, who have screen flickering. I had never this issue, nor I never tried cm10. 1.

So I'll be aware of it. :)

Edit : after applying some themes, like xperia or win8, same **** with alarmclock appears. Even system clock started to work not normally. Applied autotime setting from provider helped and of course needed to clear clocks data.

After flashing kernel-cm-10-20130729-galaxysl-test.zip, the backlight problem returns. (I have the backlight issue in 3.0 Kernel)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] loSconosciuto:
cm-10-20130801-UNOFFICIAL-galaxysl.zip

Changes

Fixed non responding touchscreen upon wakeup (even with no chip calibrations - still in testing)

Camera HAL fixes and improvements

◦ Smarter preview frame drop handling

◦ Added possibility to change ISO

◦ Added colour effects

◦ Added continuous shots focus mode

◦ Added more scene effects

◦ Added one more digital zoom level

◦ Added possibility to change JPEG quality

Added shell script to fix the camera orientation issue with Skype [1]

Few minor fixes

[1] Open terminal emulator and run

su
skype

This will modify the dex file of Skype to fix the orientation of the camera while video calling (tested using the latest version of Skype). You have to run it whenever the dex is recreated, that is when you wipe the dalvik cache or when you update the app.

I'm not sure of this, but it seems that sometimes the audio while video calling is really noisy and sometimes it's necessary to start a video call twice to let the other caller see you.

EDIT: if the orientation is still wrong, restart Skype. Make sure the app is really closed.

All the camera HAL changes are here.

Sadly, the opposite change that here cause the issues with the backlight applied to the 3.0 kernel simply fixed the flashing screen for those users who normally don't have the blacklight issue. Thanks for testing the kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
Yea, I had a feeling, that LoSco will update something today :)

Thanks, now on 0801release, works smoothly as it should be. Camera now become as camera, with mods to choose from :)

Even ISO, that is wow =-O and it's working :)

Not using skype video calls, so I can't say anything, except that Skype pulse notifications works :)

Now about sad part. About prelast release, about Bluetooth. Sometimes bt don't want to turn on (using phone scheduler to control it,including flight mode, sync, sound volume and data), quality is bad also. There are light periods, when speech is bright, without noises, but only about 10% of all bt talking time. There was good quality at rom install, maybe for couple of days, but after that quality just dropped. Strange isn't? Would record the speech, to understand better about what I'm talking about, but I can't because of lack of this feature. Native sound recorder records only my voice, 2nd part is missing :)

Anyway, happy yo use this rom and always expect some refreshments.

Thanks dev, rom is like Porsche, fast and everyday runner, as it should be :)

edit: [MENTION=4349695]loSconosciuto[/MENTION], is it possible to implement one mod to camera app like experia phones have?

I mean touch to focus and shoot without pressing any button (soft or hard one). my wife got xperia, so only one tap on screen is needed to focus and picture is automatically taken when focus is locked. that is really handy using one hand :)

@ loSconosciuto : I am a regular Skype Video Call user. I use cm10 A3 (with LolaTion's Jelly Bam 26112012) for making near good skype video calls. The videos were little laggy but the sad thing was the sound was not good with last 3 versions of Skype. For correcting the sound and laggness of video I use Skype's modded version 2.8.0.920 ( build 16) by theos0o and altogether the skype was near perfect in cm10a3.

In cm10 A4 and cm10.1, I could not make skype calls as both videos & audios were frequently given FC's.

With your latest build, Mr. Loconscuito, the skype was much smoother and better in cm10 a4 and the sound is little shaky. But altogether it is very good. You have done a wonderfull job. Thanks a lot.

[MENTION=4588282]sgatechwork[/MENTION]: Try with Skype's modded version 2.8.0.920 ( build 16) by theos0o and type in the commands in terminal emulator and see the diffrence.
