Already Tried That but only works on Wifi

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] tuxonhtc:
Oh no clue then, sorry. Wait for the OP to fix it maybe?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
So here it is. I have had the note II since a couple weeks after its release for T-Mobile USA and have loved it since, like most of you I am sure. With that being said, what is the fun of having an android phone without changing some things to make it better?! This is a kernel based off of the Jellybean kernel source straight from Samsung themselves. I finally hit a point I felt worthy of release in this kernel so am doing just that. With that being said it is a long way from where I am sure it will be in the end. I benchmarked it against the stock kernel and MB4 with much higher scores so am pleased with that along with the battery life I am experiencing with it. Hope you all enjoy it and don't be shy to post anything you would like to see added or changed in future releases of this kernel. Thank you all.

I highly recommend doing a full CWM backup of everything as if you were flashing a ROM as this will back up everything including the previous kernel being used prior to flashing this.

The Note II packs its modules with the kernel now including the very important wifi module needed to use wifi so as of now it's looking like I will have to upload multiple zips for each ROM. Just post which ROMs you are using so I can get an idea what boot.img's you guys need exactly so I can post the corresponding flashable zip. If anyone knows of a better method of doing this feel free to let me know.

Prerequisites:

- Root

- CWM Recovery

There are a few steps to flashing this like any other Android Software:

1. Download the zip that matches the version/ROM you are using

2. Place zip on the root of either your internal or external

3. Enter Recovery and perform a CWM backup (optional but highly recommended)

4. Select "flash zip" in recovery and select the zip you downloaded and placed on your sdcard

5. Reboot

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] master.peterm:
Which zip do we install?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] lennie:
does your kernel support voodoo app?

edit: No voodoo support (I have to have voodoo support)

you should also add that your kernel changes boot screen/image

fast charging over USB?

CPU voltage edit, underclock?

I saw a whole bunch of GPU "editables" I think was cool.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
If you are running jellybean flash the top download in the download section. Don't forget to make a backup first :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] the1gladiator:
will the King also be releasing a ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
We'll see but I gotta say google has done such a great job with MB4 at this time I don't see the need.

With that being said I'm going to continue work on this kernel and I'm pleased with the benchmark improvements im seeing compared to stock :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] lrrc29:
I flashed it but wasnt recognizing my exfat 64 gb sd.Going back to stock kernel
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
Thank you I will definately look into this

Have been listening to your inputs and have some nice additions for kernel #2

Hey buddy have you notice my magic trick yet?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] theXeffect:
Any chance u can add a dual boot with this kernel? Just wondering :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
Yah I'll look into that friend. usually just release an aosp and sammy version same kernel as each other just ones for aosp and one is for samsung

Side note per your guys requests voodoo patch among lots of other additions coming in kernel #2 update shaping up nicely. Thanks for all your input appreciate it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] robl45:
fast charging IMHO is the most useful so the phone isn't dying while being used for GPS or whatever. Undervolt makes me nervous though. I'll watch for a bit to see if there are any reports of phones bricking before trying it. Its not as easy to swap this phone as it was with Sprint if it dies.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
Fast charge with charge control is coming in kernel #2 (thanks to Andrei for writing that code from scratch)

As for your concern with bricking ive been using kernel #1 for months now do lots of 3d gaming and cpu + gpu intensive tasks and haven't had one reboot or any instability. You wouldn't see any adverse effects from a very slight undervolt as they still get ample juice to function properly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ROM_MAN:
I just flashed your kernel #1 and I love it!!! Its so fast I just love it I'm on a stock samsung galaxy note 2 with stock jellybean 4.1.2 and with your kernel its rocking thank you
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
This made my night glad you're enjoying it as much as myself.

Lord knows I needed something good tonight, went to ducks game only to see them get knocked out in game seven of round one :( (not trying to get off topic just saying haha)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ROM_MAN:
My quadrant score

I have one question I don't know if its possible but can you make the kernel oc to 2.1 or even 2.2 I would test it for you if you would like.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
I could try to add those frequencies but I don't know how stable they would be.

Great quadrant scores man I'll add those to my post for benchmarks on page one. Thanks a bunch.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] iCUE220:
Yea I'm dign this kernel! Got an additional 4 hours on my battery time compared to previous kernel. Super fast and smooth. MB4 Stock ROM. Good job. Can't wait for updates!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jay661972:
I cant even dl thru 4shared site. Am i missing something here
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ROM_MAN:
Well that's why I said I would test it before you release it because it seems my phone loves over clocking lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
Been working on the update for a little more than a week shaping up nicely I am excited myself! :)

hmmm that's quite odd no one else has come across this are you clicking the correct link on 4shared to download it?

Yah I'll keep that in mind buddy really appreciate it :D

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
I've heard mixed results I'll look into it if people are having issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
Sounds like 4shared makes you create an account now. Once you do so you won't have issues downloading.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
I know some devs hate that question but I don't mind buddy. I have added the features you all asked for plus some extra things I wanted. It's mostly a matter of seeing if everything works how it should at this point. Either today or in the next day or two :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ROM_MAN:
Wow thank you for your quick reply and I can't wait too see your next kernel and thank you for adding what I asked for. Your a awesome dev so keep up the hard work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
thank you very much man.

just doing my job :) kernel #2 has a ton of additions you'll see. It's a major update hopefully all the new features play nice with each other.

Edit update: faced some errors at compilation I'm fixing. Like I said lots of changes in this update I figured I'd have to work some kinks out. :/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ROM_MAN:
I understand I can't wait too flash your updated kernel I know it will be awesome for sure thank you again.

Will this work w the jedi master rom by ptmr3?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ROM_MAN:
I don't know but I'm sure it will but I don't know for sure. Read his first post and tell him what rom your running so he can post the right boot img for that rom.

List the rom your running

Well i am on the

I hope you will post a kernel for this.

Thanks for all your work..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
Kernel #2 released and live in post #1 as usual! :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
OK so that's a Jellybean ROM so it should work. Create a nandroid backup to be safe but you shouldn't have a problem running that ROM with this kernel.

I just released kernel #2 so go ahead and flash and report back.

If you do please let me know so I can release a special boot.img for it. Thank you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rmriggin:
Works fine with jedi master 13. No exfat support it seems so might have to go back to stock. Need the 4gb+ file size support. Suppose I could convert my card to ntfs?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ROM_MAN:
I just flashed your number 2 kernel and my sd card swap script don't work with this kernel and 2.1 and 2.2 frequencies wasn't added.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
Still haven't added those frequencies yet buddy

No reason sd card swap shouldn't work I didn't make any changes from #1 that would effect that. Testers said swap still works fine that's quite odd.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ROM_MAN:
Ok I thought you forgot them and I'm here too say the sd card swap script I use don't work with this kernel I tryed 3 times. Here are my quadrant score the best I can get at 1.9 on this kernel.

---------- Post added at 02:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 AM ----------

I'm back on kernel #1 and my sd card swap script is working fine now but on kernel #2 it won't work so something changed lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
#1 and #2 have the exact same ramdisk man I didn't change anything at all. It's not kernel dependant if it works on #1 it should work on #2. Some people said it didn't work on #1 but you and others say it does work on #1. Are you using the exact same script with the same rom?

That puts me in a tricky spot especially with no logs or logcats to look at.

What file system do you use on your sdcard?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ROM_MAN:
The file system I use on my sd card is what ever the phone formats the sd card as I think its ntfs but not sure. I will get post a logcat for you later today because I want too help you with this so I can fully use your new kernel.

---------- Post added at 08:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 AM ----------

How do you want me too set up the logcat so it gets the right data for you?

---------- Post added at 08:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 AM ----------

Here is a link from my box too the sd card swap script I use if you want too try it for your self on your kernel #1 and #2 https://www.box.com/s/tbqybw0nmc3mkutkk33i
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingxklick:
Just get a logcat during boot and post it to pastebin.

Are you using the same file system as before? Only change I can think of that could be remotely close to a factor is I added ntfs support im #2 but still don't get why that'd break anything. I'll take a look at the script itself when I have a chance as well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ROM_MAN:
Yes ever thing is the same as before the only thing different is your kernel thats the only change.

---------- Post added at 12:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 PM ----------

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] anhmuonm:
Does this #2 work.with MyROM Revolution 7.1?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tiffany84:
You need to add a .zip to the end of the file name to see it in recovery. I tried #2 on the Miui/TW rom and I used the voodoo app to turn up the volume on the headphones. When I start listening to music and turn the volume up the phone reboots. Tried it several times with the same result. Will try and get a logcat when I get home.

does hyper threading make any difference in performance?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rmriggin:
I formatted my 64gb sd card to ntfs but could only get it to read and mount if I used the paragon app from play store. Android would not mount it but could format it but after the format competed it could not mount it. So it seems as though there is some exfat read issues with this kernel or at least it affects 64gb cards or mine in particular.

As far as ntfs goes its not an ideal filesystem as I believe its Microsoft. This kernel is using the default ntfs code.

solid work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tiffany84:
If I get you the boot.img that comes with the Miui/TOUCH WIZ rom in this forum could you possibly look at it to see what causes the phone to reboot while turning the volume up and using voodoo. All though it's a Miui rom I believe the base is Samsung and other kernels like perseus work just fine. If you don't have the time I totally understand. I would just love to give this a run for a little while. Thanks.
