Is there any way to add the sense 5 widgets in Nova such as the music app widget. I know UCCW has the sense 5 clock which is great but what about others? BTW I am unlocked and rooted.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] _MetalHead_:
Nope. Use PowerAmp for your music. It's the best player on Android and has plenty of widgets to choose from.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] iElvis:
The Sense widgets are part of the Sense framework and can't be broken out. There are plenty of clones in the Play Store.

I Did one nandroid backup with twrp recovery, I want to make a 2nd after i restore all my market apps one by one because for some reason app market doesnt auto restore or let you check mark all your owned/paid/downloaded apps... you apparently have to download each one by one .Anyway I want to back up all the the correct partitions besides the ones that are auto checked by default, like does efs need to be backed up or any others besides system data and boot
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jerry D:
I backup every partition except cache. The efs partition is ALL important. You should always back that up.

Also you should get the Titanium Backup App from the Play Store. You can use it to backup and restore your apps and data before and after a flash. You won't have to download and install your apps one by one anymore. I suggest you get the paid version. It is well worth the money.

Thanks for sharing so you said no OC for now, is this kernel good for better battery life?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] davp:
Thanks civato, it works for me. I tried cifs mount to samba server - good. Androbench reports huge improvements in I/O so fsync must be working right. Cheers
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] roustabout:
Booted great for me too. I reverted because my init.d is customized already and one of my scripts wasn't running, but wonderful to see.

My wish list for kernels includes undervolting before it includes overclocking, especially with performance enhancements in i/o coming online.

I applied the i/o script in the toolbox forum earlier today and at least benchmark performance jumped. Not sure about overall system response yet, not that much time with the toy today :)

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
No dynamic fsync is off by default, you need to enable it with terminal command. See op on how to.

Your I/O score is higher then stock because of the init.d tweak included.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] Hamst0r:
dynamic fsync, what is this?

gesendet vom Galaxy Note 8.0
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] roustabout:
I eventually sorted out the problem I was having with my init.d script.

The new kernel identifies the sdcard differently. The stock kernel refers to

/dev/block/vold/179:17

the custom kernels need to be told that it is

/dev/block/vold/179:49

Folks who are rebinding their SD cards to extend their storage should keep that in mind.

Once I'd ironed that out, I found that the system was using more cpu at idle than it had been. Using governor tweaks (mostly around the "ignore nice" setting) my cpu idles at 200-300 mhz quite a lot of the time.

I saw a lot more spikes to 1.4-1.6 ghz with the new kernel.

I suspect that's a result of the different superuser more than anything else, but I ultimately reverted back entirely.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
I don't know what governor tweaks you use but mine idles at 200MHz and only jumps to max when needed.

My battery life is normal and nothing higher then on stock kernel.

I didn't even change anything regarding this in the source.

I'm currently running happy at a 75 mvolt underclock, and if this proves stable I'll probably try for a 150 mvolt next.

Thank you very much for providing a kernel that supports undervolting!

I use two init.d tweaks. One chanages the frequency step from 37% to 5% - I'm trying to get the processor to step up in 100 mhz increments, rather than jumping from 200 to 800 and on to 1400 quite so much.

I'm also using "ignore nice load," so the processors ignore niced processes when counting their backlog and deciding whether it's time to increase clock.

I wasn't (and don't) think that there was anyting in the kernel that was making my system idle at higher load.

I do think that the superuser that got installed with your binary was doing more work than the su's I'm used to working with, since it was offering to ask again in 15 minutes after the grants of privilege escalation.

I ultimately fixed it by extracting the boot.img file from your package and just flashing that, then adding the modules and init.d scripts in root explorer, and putting back my preferred superuser.

I'm currently running happy at a 75 mvolt underclock, and if this proves stable I'll probably try for a 150 mvolt next.

Thank you very much for providing a kernel that supports undervolting!

One thing that is odd on this guy - when I undervolt, many but not all of the voltages take. There are a few of the voltages that it seems Samsung really, really wants to have a little higher, especially in the 200 / 400 / 600 mhz range but some up higher than that.

Some info on next update.

Rev1.3.

Redid the uv so it works on all frequencies correctly. Meaning the lower frequencies.

I added new lower frequenties 50 and 100 MHz.

Over clocking up to1800 MHZ, maybe 1920 if I get it.

boot up speed is 200 and 1600 MHz , if you want lower or higher speeds you need to set it.

Enabled arch power and some more optimizations.....

release today or tomorrow.

Yes Sir, downloading now!!!! Can't wait to try it out
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] davp:

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] aezv:
Don't know why it still run at 1.9ghz even I set the max to 1.8ghz in setcpu, Other than that the kernel is super.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
Reboot , it can happen that it don't stick.

Edit:

Next release will be max 1800MHz and min 100MHz as other frequencies seems to cause this problem. Also they brake cpu saving settings by samsung.

Maybe in the future when I figure it out I will add higher frequencies but I don't want to break other features.

It has got to be 100% rock solid.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] aezv:
Thanks for the info and also for your hard work.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
No problem but it seems I was to fast in my conclusion, it is benchmarks like quadrant and antutu that make the cpu run at max even if you put it lower.

I tested it with cf bench and that one does it work correct.

Also try Trickster mod.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] aezv:
yes you are right, trickster mod do the trick. Thanks again.

Update Rev1.4

CivZ-StormBorn-Rev1.4 (22-May-2013) = See OP for download.

Updated OC code. (Please use "Trickster Mod")

Cpu frequencies according to load

Adaptive Body Bias control @ AndreiLux

Min speed is set at 100MHz (removed 50MHz)

Boot and default speeds are now 100-1600MHz

Note: Bug?

Benchmark tools like "Quadrant and Antutu will bypass to max 1.9GHz speed.

Normal apps or "cfbench" won't , it is only these two benchmarks"

So even if you set it at 1700MHz it will go to 1900MHz when running Quadrant.

Setting Samsung cpu saving in settings will limit all aps to max 1.1GHz.

Checking sys/devices it clearly shows the correct cpu speed, I don't know why these 2 apps override it.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] roustabout:
When I first started looking into tweaking the governor (rooted stock kernel) I was seeing that Antutu was frequently locking the CPU at max speed long after it was done. I had not seen Quadrant do it, but I've gotten in the habit of rebooting my device after benching it.

One thing about this kernel that I found interesting, either at 1900 top end or 1800 top end set in SetCPU - if I adjust clock after boot, the kernel runs flat out until next reboot, at which time the governors work as expected.

It also seems that the auto-brightness on the screen is not working as well as on the stock OS. It seems that it sets the screen relatively brightly and is relatively insensitive to changes to room lighting. The latter is not a big deal for me, I'm happy to readjust the brightness manually.

The performance is outstanding. I clocked 19170 on Antutu and 8219 on Quad. All the quadrant runs I'm seeing are above 8000. I am undervolting 75 mv - had a crash when I tried UV of 100 mv - and that helps with CPU temp. At one point just after setting this up last night, I had the CPU up to 65 degrees C!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] davp:
I don't get the high-frequency lockup for 1.8ghz, my cpu returns to normal after running antutu (temperature and frequencies like 1 offline and 3 between 100-800). I'm using system tuner pro to adjust only the max clock, and civato's reflex rom (lite with a few extra removals) with the 1.4 kernel.

Could it be something to do with stock rom or trickster?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] davp:
When I run the light test, it just has

LIGHT TEST: Pending

ADC: NONE

LUX:NONE

and stays like that till my patience runs out (about 30 seconds).
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
Nothing changed regarding brightness, in my case it works like it always did.

High temp is normal when running benchmarks, it got a temperature throttle = so when it get's to hot it will throttle down in speed.

So you are using 2 different apps to control the cpu? Well that is asking for strange behaviour.

I only recommend "Trickster" , all other apps like system tuner are just not needed.

Oh and type in terminal su v6 and see what happens. There you can really set some nice performance stuff. (If you are on my rom) (update coming for my rom)

?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] davp:
Sorry, the test in the FactoryTest.apk

Try this

/system/bin/am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.sec.factory/com.sec.factory.app.factorytest.FactoryTestMain &

and choose test 15

Its similar to what the secret code *#0*# for tests gets you on the samsung phones

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] roustabout:
civ writes "Nothing changed regarding brightness, in my case it works like it always did."

Understood that you weren't making changes to brightness settings. The discussion from Andreilux on adaptive body bias that I found suggests that his custom kernel, at least, does not wind up interfacing to the screen auto-brightness in the same way that a stock kernel does.

Obviously, this is his kernel, not yours, but it sounds as if it's possible that kernels compiled without all of the variables in use by Samsung can have subtle interactive differences.

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1691401

"Auto-brightness input-delta: This is needed because the stock framework is retarded in the values it forwards to the kernel, you can adjust this to avoid having brightness reduction when you don't want it on auto-brightness.

Release Rev1.6

CivZ-StormBorn_Rev1.6

CivZ-StormBorn-Rev1.6 (26-May-2013)

CPU MAx clocked now at 1920MHz.

All know cpu control apps supported now. (setCPU, cpu Adjuster, TricksterMod, Voltage control,...)

CPU frequency stick now even when running benchmark, no more jumping to highest speed of 1.9GHz.

GPU voltage control and 533MHz step selectable with "TricksterMod"

Note on GPU clock:

Trickster shows more selectable frequencies but you will notice that when you leave the app (back button) the max clock will always be 533MHz even if you selected 700MHz.

I did not eneable higher clocks as I still need to figure it out , I got a test kernel with higher clocks but I don't see any real performance difference so I don't make it public now.

SOLVED :

Note:

Benchmark tools like "Quadrant and Antutu will bypass to max 1.9GHz speed.

Normal apps or "cfbench" won't , it is only these two benchmarks"

So even if you set it at 1700MHz it will go to 1900MHz when running Quadrant.

Auto-brightness is still not as good as the stock samsung kernel. I tried with modding the framework but that doesn't change a thing. It is kernel related and maybe one day i can find it but is no priority now. I din't change anything regarding the lcd drivers but maybe samsung did something when they build the kernel , the same thing with there proprietary modules exFat, I needed to patch the module.c in the kernel so they still work.

Samsung isn't so open as they say.

If not I'm starting to keep stuff just for myself , I find this Note8.0 forum not a grateful one.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] poyda69:
What app do you recommend to change the OC back to 1600MHz?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
Default boot up speed is 100-1600MHz so if you didn't OC it runs at stock max 1600MHz. You only need a app if you want to start changing the settings and overclock, undervolt, governor and scheduler settings.

The max you can OC is up to 1.92GHz but that is not the default speed, you need a app like trickster mod or setcpu to do that.

Just got my device and I'm looking forward to your rom & kernel builds. Thanks for the hard work.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] roustabout:
Civato, again, thanks - the main way I try to give thanks is to give detailed feedback on what I'm seeing. Honestly, I don't know how many of your threads I've thanked, because I'm more interested in discussion and feedback.

As I walked through this thread to thank the kernel posts (think I got them all) I realized something: I'm much less likely to thank posts with long image and signature blocks after the post text. It's just that I read a post and if there's a long set of stuff once I've read the text, I'm often no longer remembering to thank by the time I page through it - I'm (usually) a much more reading-oriented person than a looking-oriented person.

I'm sorry if you feel underappreciated (or if you think that my feedback, in particular, has been critical of you or your work, rather than relating my experience with it)

Your kernels are the only ones that support wifi on my device so far, and I'm glad to have them!

And I can totally understand how, after watching two other early stage devs get devices paid for by contributions, you'd be steamed about not being valued for your work even by something as easy as clicking a button.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] davp:
Hi Civato, been enjoying your kernel and rom. I know its not high priority, but I solved the light sensor problem. To turn on the light sensor, the kernel config is CONFIG_SENSORS_AL3201=y

when this is done, the value can be read by: cat /sys/devices/virtual/sensors/light_sensor/lux

Also then, running the light test in the FactoryTest.apk shows the changing value and passes (when a bright light hits the sensor).

Thanks again for putting us in control of our devices.

i tried using an NTFS flash drive (with otg) and it didnt detect. I also tried an exFat flash drive it does a reboot when i plug it in.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
Will do at the next build, thanks for the input, this is what we need to make things better.:good:

Load the ntfs module, see OP on how to load extra modules. It is a kernel terminal command. They stick even after reboot.

About the exFat support, it is samsung proprietary modules so I had to patch the kernel to make them load as normally they don't on a custom build kernel.

I didn't have a time on testing it.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] kisaten:
I loaded all the extra modules (m_load and Clint_load) I can't get nerds to work without a specialized mounting program (which probably loads it's

own module.)

It's too bad Samsungs exfat module is causing glitches. the kernel is awesome by itself.

I wonder if there is a way to just block the Samsung part from even loading so that we can mount the drives with a secondary program lik paragon exfat or something
