Is JBX compatible with SlimKat?

In JBX's compatibility list SlimKat was not included. However, I think some of you guys use this kernel in your SlimKat ROMs. I've always used that combination, Dtrail's kernels & Slim ROMs, previously but I wonder if it would be as smooth/compatible with 4.4 as in previous iterations.

P.S. Dtrail, you are great. Peace be upon you brother.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jmmcglothin:
Dtrail and I both use Slimkat + JBX as our primary ROMs

I have Black Screen and have to restore back up every time I decide to restore prior kernel. Suxxx. I tried making a flashable ker NB el restore.zip with zip me but same results. [MENTION=4287139]dtrail1[/MENTION], could u throw a flashable kernel restore.zip to me? (Or thread on how to properly make one) I use to have no problems until aroma/4.4 entered .zip..and changed things.

Thanks

The restore option in aroma has never worked for me, either. I believe you should be able to just re-flash the ROM, however, leaving /data/ intact. I haven't tried, though.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 1droidmod:
Re-flashing the RoM makes this: Edit build.prop(qemu.hw.mainkeys=0) also have to delete 16 system apps, install framework again, swap bootanimation.zip's, check AdAway, go thru contacts to forward some to voicemail, re-patch a couple apps, etc. I am going to flash JBX now and see if manually placing kernel/modules works.

Haha fair enough. I usually just wipe and start over, myself. The only things I copy over between installs are SMS. I've gotten used to reinstalling all my apps, framework tweaks, etc. manually each time.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] RandomPooka:
So, manually repairing the missing apps and settings is not optimal. The alternative is manually replacing all kernel modules, the kernel binary, and removing JBX scripts from /etc/init.d or getting a black screen using the Aroma installer to revert....

Personally, I'd reflash the ROM and just adjust as necessary. Seriously, how often do you install and uninstall JBX that this is even a problem?

A third option would be to use TWRP to backup before flashing and just restore /system. Crazy, I know.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 1droidmod:
Lol, so many options!!

I'm having a serious problem with JBX kernel, can anyone help me out?

The problem is it eats a lot of battery and the phone always stays hot in hand, I've even put max frequency to 600mhz but still no go.

Had to install it on top of MoKee, cause latest stable couldn't connect to WiFi.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
New build is up.

There were some mistakes in SR/PM code which caused problems with music playback, etc. This is now fixed.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jmmcglothin:
So, an interesting thing started to happen as of late... I'm not sure if it's strictly JBX kernel related or if it's ROM related... I would say it's a combination of both... but anyway.

Installing JBX prior to a full rom boot seems to break GPS. Not sure why or how exactly but it does... the GPS works but it is a mile off... literally. I tried clean flash of ROM > GAPPS > JBX and the result ended up the same. I tried Faster GPS Fix and it didn't work. What finally worked was flashing the ROM > GAPPS and let my phone go through a complete setup cycle. After the phone was done I confirmed that GPS was working properly (which it was) then flashed JBX Kernel... booted up again and confirmed that the GPS retained functionality.

I first noticed this issue when I dirty flashed the JBX 2/27 Build over the 2/22 build but the issue wasn't the new kernel version because I had the same issue when I was troublshooting with the 2/22 build.

I haven't had this issue with GPS before and I found it pretty interesting... was curious to see if anyone else might have an explanation or have run into a similar issue. My GPS is working now without any issues but I thought this might be a good thing to discuss... I'm posting this on the Slimkat thread as well.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seandop:
I've had this a few times. GPS seems to need to be recalibrated after a new ROM installation, just like the good old days. Hold the phone at arm's length and wave it around in a figure eight pattern on all three axes for 15 seconds or so. Always resolved the issue for me.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] dubisz:
If you want to revert to stock kernel, just reflash your rom without wiping data - wipe cache and dalvik only. Your apps etc. will be there, but the kernel will be back to stock.

Yeah, get back to us after about a week of running it. I've had two freezes in a single day. Other than that, just some small data issues that clear up. Runs pretty smooth
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
I'm back on 2-27 since all 3-x builds have some issues and higher battery drain.

But unfortunately I don't find enough time for development.... Since I lost my job it's really a hard time for me, and it's getting more bad.... Always have to look for important basic stuff needed for life, like food, etc... Looking for some small jobs nearby, being on ways outside, trying to find something useful to work.. It's just annoying. Sorry, guys. I don't know when I can get back - also didn't sleep last night... I don't know.. Will get back to you as soon as I can.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Lincoln357:
Hey man, I'm in a similar situation... Lost my job a month ago, was the manager of IT store, and lost it because of others... Now I'm struggling for a dime, doing this and that, servicing PCs and phones at home, have two little kids to take care of... It's hard but keep your head up! Don't let this take the best of you, cause where's will, there's a way. I had many downs in my life but I always came out as a winner, thanks to my will of steel (not self praising, just the way I chose to go through life). I was from business banking consultant to a cab driver but never surrendered to circumstances. So, head up, chest out, charge your willpower and trust me, soon there will rise an opportunity for a job. Take care about yourself and the kernel... it can wait.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
Yeah, thx for that! I had many many hard times - since I was young. Grown up in the wrong neighbourhood , wrong people, endless "haram things",... leaded me into prison for three times. But in 2010 this finally was over. If it was 2007 I would get a lot of money within a few hours. But I will never get back to this again. Better life legally, poor and happy and healthy than "rich" and "wanted" lol.

This is only a very small "cutscene" from my life... :) And it's enough for you to know :D I'm a good one now! ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Lincoln357:
No problem mate... Like I said, same here, I had a similar life, never been in prison though but only cause I didn't get caught! Problematic and dangerous youth years, with substances abuse and selling until I made a radical cut and left it all behind, dedicating myself to a family, job and IT sector. That was years ago and I'm a different person now. So, keep it up, take care and everything will be OK, I know. Don't burden yourself with development now, first sort out what is priority in your life and afterwards everything will set in just fine. Talking from experience.

Hi

I am used the 03-05 on cyanfox

But sometimes ita freeze

Use the 02-27 cant download from play store

Use the 02-22 my phone is always hot

Any suggestiob my dear???

??? ?? ?????
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seandop:
I don't think the freezes are entirely kernel-related. I ditched Cyanfox for PACman when the 4.4.2 nightlies started being published. After two days, no freezes so far on 2/27 JBX.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jmmcglothin:
Cyanfox became pretty unstable for me after several weeks of use on the first build... the newer builds only lasted a couple days... largest problem for me was not receiving calls. So I ended up switching to Slimkat and haven't looked back.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] deboyz1014:
Best for me is 3.2 + JBX 2/27
[Motorola Droid RAZR] qqzwc:
This is related to alsa.omap4.so

It's not the kernel's problem.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] parser:
Ofcourse it happens also w/out jbx. But with jbx it happens much more. Sometimes I cannot even use the phone when listening to music. But with stock I can even open chrome. With lags in music ofcourse.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seandop:
So I used to have problems with music lagging whenever screen went off. I noticed by accident today that this problem no longer exists for me on 3/11 PACman + 2/27 JBX. Just thought I'd let you guys know.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RandomPooka:
Nice find. How's wifi on that? I'm experiencing big problems with CM not reconnecting to wifi properly when the screen goes off. Deep sleep or charger, it doesn't matter. I have to toggle wifi off, wait a second, then back on. Kills the battery fast trying to connect if I don't remember to toggle it off and back on.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
I'm now using the latest JBX for hard testing. It's working fine so far, not sure about battery, but I think this was a problem of 3-5 build.

Other than that 3-5 includes fixes for serial (modem)

Edit: I'll be back at development very soon! Thanks to all of you, especially those who supported me via pp! You guys are awesome and I'm glad I can offer you a better kernel experience very soon!

#My personal review:

Had to reflash rom for prevent issues

Audio working fine

Cam working fine

Battery Life seems good (cannot say yet, but looks good)

If you face any weird issues (like non working audio), try reflashing your rom (dirty flash rom+ gapps + kernel + whatever you use).

In case this doesn't work, try a full wipe (backup apps + data, callslist, sms/mms, wifi networks and bookmarks before with TiBu) or you should consider using another rom.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] JakeDHS07:
Rebooted and now everything is fine. Weird

:highfive::good: CM11 03/15, JBX 03/15, Camera works fine, no audio issues, def less drain then 03/13 build!! Trickster updated, sweet!! :highfive::cool:

Just too sweet!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Lincoln357:
Haven't much time to play around with JBX but I flashed it on top of SlimKat 3.2 and Liquid Smooth v3.0 and didn't face any issues whatsoever. With JBX OC 400/1300 I got 11978 comparing to 9156 on 300/1200 with stock kernel.

But, I haven't noticed any difference running JBX on 300/1000 and 400/1300 in real usage, everything is fast and snappy on both frequencies (same goes for stock 300/1200).

Looks like if the rom is good, you don't need any performance tweaks at all, except maybe finding the perfect setting for a good battery life.

hi,

i've been lurking around this forum for a long time and and i wanna say thanks to dtail! I'm still using the latest kernel build for 4.2, and I don't wanna move to Slimkat because, in my experience, Antutu scored much lower, the experience was twitchy and battery drained easily in one day with seldom any use.

[MENTION=348644]dtail1[/MENTION], i know youve been busy and i fully appreciate your hard work, but you've mentioned before that you'll update the other android versions (no lower than 4.2) with the latest builds of JBX, is that still probably gonna happen or is it out of sight now? Else I'll have to go back to Slimkat and hope the kinks i had before will not be there now :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] BeSalecker:
At least once a day I get the dead screen, only hardware button backlights turn on issue. I have to reboot and wipe cache and dalvik each time it happens. Any suggestions on how to fix this it happens on every ROM I use. Running 2-22 build with SlimKat 3.6 on a xt912. Thanks a lot!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] tydiamond11:
On jbx 3/5 my battery would last 2 1/2 hours screen time on the nrw eat it only lasted a hour so I went back to the old one and it works better !
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jmmcglothin:
I would run into this problem 99% of the time if I have my minimum frequency set to anything less than 300,000 in Trickster. My phone just doesn't like being underclocked at all. So check your frequencies if this applies to your settings.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] snowman46919:
HDMI support is the only thing I miss from the stock rom, can't wait. Now to read up on flashing a kernel... that was easy.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
New build is up!

- HDMI (should work)

- DPLL (Cascading) working so far (no laggs while playing music, also in suspend)

- Camera working (front camcorder recording FCs fixed)

- Too many changes to list here, see changelog!)

FULL CHANGELOG: https://github.com/RAZR-K-Devs/andr...n/blob/JBX_30X/changelog/Changelog_2014-03-20

NOTE: After boot give the kernel a few minutes to initialize! It will feel a little bit slow during the init period, but then it runs as usual. DPLL Cascading is enabled by default. In my tests I got:

- No laggs while hearing music - also when screen is off)

- Notifications, etc, while playing music doesn't cause issues (got lockups, freezes in prior tests)

- You can turn off dpll (see FAQ) if you see anything is going wrong with it

- Kernel sleep might be less deep now = faster wakeup when you press wake key

- Battery life should be at the best point again (like it was on some older builds)

- NOT A FINAL BUILD! This is now an inportant phase for us, because you, the users, will test it with all your different kinds of setups, apps, whatever. So the kernel can show its behavior. And I hope for some logs in case sth goes wrong for you! If you report bugs, also provide a log!

Enjoy!^^

EDIT:

Music, low frequencies, kernel low power settings, in DPLL, making photo and chatting, sending pics - all at the same time, without any littler lag

+ Wifi on

all this and my battery is going down pretty slow

?

EDIT: Well, you may notice that the device runs a little bit slower than before with this new build. I will see how I can imrpove this, but on the other hand the battery life has been improved very well here! I prefer a little slower kernel with great battery life than a running killer weating my battery. But I will try to find a good middle way. - This could also be depending on my perosnal phone setup...Maybe it's running very nice for you guys?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] snowman46919:
Well I spoke too soon. I tried flashing this over my current system, tried a fresh install of rom, tried everything I could think of. No matter what got this
