Oh and I haven't benchmarked yet but it feels so much more snappy. :) testing the MDL kernel right now. :) maybe other kernel devs will see this thread and implement frandom :victory:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Confirmed working on your stock rooted MDL :) :victory:

I wonder why it won't work on faux123's MDL kernel? :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] opz187:
You think you could upload the frandom kernel? I'd love to give that a shot
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] shabbypenguin:
kernel uname has to match. so youd have to bug faux about adding it. or he can reinstall linux and make his computers "name" exactly like mine :P.

in a week or so if no progress has been made lemme know ill grab kernel source for whom you want and compile it. it will then let the module work :P
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Shabby put it in his dropbox but I don't want to kill his bandwidth on there. I know it blocks you if so many use it so I'll put it in mine.

download the module

here

and use with the MDL stock that shabby provided.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
will do. and thank you sir :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] shabbypenguin:
not at all a problem, still dont see any magic fairy dust making my phone snappier though :P
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Do you have crossbreeder installed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] shabbypenguin:
no, i should prolly do that eh? :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
ha ha yes!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] opz187:
So I flash shabbys kernel, flash crossbreader, then how do I install the frandom module? The one I downloaded is frandom.txt
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
No use your computer to download it. if not some browsers translate it as text. to install the module you

first make sure you have SEAndroid frozen in TiBu so you don't get that annoying pop up!

then install crossbreeder then install shabby's Stock/Rooted MDL

place the file in /system/lib/modules

then open terminal and type insmod /system/lib/modules/frandom.ko

then reboot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] shabbypenguin:
im too nice of a guy :P

here is a flashable zip of "frandom" kernel. it has the module in the right place etc all you need to do is flash crossbreeder as well :)

http://www.shabbypenguin.com/OUDstu...Kernel/TW/Stable/Stock-MDL-Frandom-spr-TW.zip
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
wooooooooooooooot!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] opz187:
Dude shabby what would I do without you? Seriously, you have no idea how grateful I am that you're working on this device.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mw86:
Nice to see the same interests out in other threads. I use crossbreeder since it was made beggining of year and I use it on my gs3 with Ktoonsez kernel with frandom implemented. I was also hoping to have the module loaded into a kernel available for my phone. GTi9500 for me. I asked Wanam in his thread, I may leave a message for Andrei Lux.

I got 14025 quadrant on my stock gti9500 if ita of interest before rooting or adding crossbreeder etc.

On this firmware

Crossbreeder rocks and always has as well as frandom works wonders with it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lilmikeyv:
Where can I get crossbreeder? and using shabbys new zip, will I still need to implement the terminal commands?...Thanks again shabby!!!:D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
You can download crossbreeder here.

You can use the MDL stock kernel with frandom zip he posted here,

just flash crossbreeder then flash the kernel and you're done.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] opz187:
Hey so how can we tell if the frandom is working correctly? Is there some thing we can type into terminal emulator that would give a certain output? I remember seeing something somewhere in the crossbreader thread but I can't find it

---------- Post added at 10:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

Honestly, it does feel snappier though
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
type this into terminal

also if the module is listed in /dev you're golden
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] opz187:
Damn dude it really does feel quicker

---------- Post added at 11:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 PM ----------

Hey after installing crossbreader does it set your read ahead to 4096 every boot?

---------- Post added at 11:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 PM ----------

Nevermind I think I figured it out. Edited some lines in ect/crossbreader/zz crossbreader
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
exactly. I edit mine as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mjs2011:
So.....just flash both zips in the op ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
correct
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mjs2011:
Thanks! I suck for not reading the last page.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mw86:
What changes did you end up using. Just curious buddy :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blacknet101:
this is only for TW? or can i use this on custom roms?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] opz187:
You can use on custom roms it doesn't matter. As long as you flash the modified kernel and crossbreeder
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blacknet101:
Okay so flash whatever rom i want to use, then flash the Kernel and then Crossbreeder and it should work fine?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mjs2011:
Does this affect battery life as well because I'm having even better battery life today after installing this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] shabbypenguin:
it works on any TW based rom. for aosp id need to compile an aosp kernel. the module only works on kernels that are compiled by the same machine/person
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] blacknet101:
oh okay okay I wont flash this on my PA rom

can you make one for AOSP roms?

OP should change it and put it is only for TW based roms for now until the AOSP kernel can be the same.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lballer69:
Op says stock rooted kernel
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
I changed the read ahead to 6144 in the crossbreeder script. it's located at /system/etc/crossbreeder/zzCrossBreeder. The default is 4096. :victory:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jspsuperman:
There r 2 that say 4096, did u change both?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
yep. one for each card. internal and external.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Back to back benchmarks. Truely amazing!

Sent from the rabbit hole.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] SAShady:
There's definitely no more stutter when scrolling. Thanks man, great work. Doing side by side comparison with my friends stock s4
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] SAShady:
I downloaded Voltage Control Extreme, changed the schedule to Deadline and the governor to Interactive, and now this baby really flies
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Amen brother. I love frandom with crossbreeder! Hopefully more kernel devs will pick up on this.

Sent from the rabbit hole.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] V1ViD:
just flashed this and i'm enjoying it so far. Although, are you guys also getting the Detection information nag notifcation?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
You have to disable or freeze the SEAndroid application in Titanium backup or any other app that can freeze apps. This is what's causing that nag popup. Also this does nothing unless you flash crossbreeder with it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] V1ViD:
I did flash crossbreeder with it :p

Flashed the kernel, then I flashed crossbreeder and restarted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Ok now disable SEAndroid and enjoy lol! :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mw86:
Do i need to do that? What is it needed for. I have crossbreeder on my gs3 and gs4 international. The gs3 with frandom, and gs4 regular install. Do i need to disable selinux or only if frandom was implemented to kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
if you are running a non stock kernel you definitely need to disable SEAndroid (Security Enabled Android). if not you get a nag popup that asks you to reboot. Go on and try it without disabling SEAndroid and you'll notice the popup.

I'm not sure if this applies to the international versions but it DOES happen on the US Sprint versions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mw86:
Doesn't happen on mine im not on stock kernel though and selinux is still on. Thanks for the added info, a friend of mine has the sprint one, ill let him know, much obliged.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] masterosok:
If you are already running Shabby's MDL Kernel with root, after you flash crossbreeder and frandom do you needed to reflash Shabby's MDL Kernel and SuperSU again?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
No but I recommend flashing shabby's MDL kernel with the frandom module compiled within it. Check my OP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] masterosok:
All setup... this baby really screams now!

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] opz187:
Hey guys just a heads up, idcrisis released a new update to crossbreeder. It's not in the OP tho.

It can be found at the bottom of this page http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2113150&page=221

it's best to first uninstall crossbreeder first, then install the update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] SAShady:
Also after installing everything, I've been running into a problem with my network cutting out and it telling me to insert a SIM card. Have to clear cache and dalvik to restore service
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dbpaddler:
Might sound dumb, but what network mode are you in?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] SAShady:
Cdma/lte whatever it's supposed to be on, works fine most the time, but it will randomly pop up
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
I'm not having that issue. Did you clear cache/dalvik prior to installing this? Bring it up in the crossbreeder thread. I've never had this issue on this phone or my evo 4g lte.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] SAShady:
Yup, and it goes away if I clear dalvik and cache. Only happens sporadically.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] majid25:
I can't seem to find it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] apexcell:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=41591796&postcount=2210
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] majid25:
So to get everything up and running first flash crossbreeder and then the frandom kernel by shabby? I never heard of any of these before but by reading comments it sounds pretty damn good
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] CCallahan:
Just FYI....looks like now the OP has a newer version posted today. 5/21
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nabbed:
Could I copy frandom to /system/lib on a us cellular gs4 and flash crossbreeder?

Will that work?

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Can you run this kernel on that phone? If not it won't work. the module is specifically compiled for this kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] CCallahan:
Just flashed this today and hopefully I modified the script properly cause the default was set at 1024. Changed both to 6144 and will see what happens. Do I need to reboot for it to take effect?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
You sure you changed the right portion of that script the default is 4096 I believe :)

Sent from the rabbit hole.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
:) oh and you don't need to reboot

Sent from the rabbit hole.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] CCallahan:
No lol...read through the script 3-4 times and was the only place I could find read ahead listed. Nowhere in the script did I see 4096.

Down towards the bottom of zzCrossBreeder script:

if ["$total_ram" -lt 512 ]; then

read_ahead=1024

else

read_ahead=2048

fi

Is this the right part?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Doh! You do have the new version of the script! I had an older version! And yes that is where you would change the read ahead

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nabbed:
I tested 256k - 4096k internal sd speed.

With A1 SD Bench, the fastest score was with 2048k. This on USC gs4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Which is interesting because my benchmarks using android tuner revealed exactly the opposite. See the attached screen shots. Whatever works for you my friend. I know I do pretty well with my setup in quadrant. :)

:D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nabbed:
My benchmark can beat up your benchmark.:p

Anyway, I have a class 10 sandisk 64GB formatted for vfat/fat32. It's reported to have 19read/11write. Is there any kind of hack I could use to speed that puppy up?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ®AndroidDoctor®:
How would i go about installing something like this on ktoonsez kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
I have the exact same card. beyond a read ahead and changing the I/O governor I don't know of any more tweaks for SDCARD speed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
go here and flash it. that's it. ktoonsez kernel already includes the frandom module.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] CCallahan:
Man...I must not be doing something right cause this phone is just as laggy as ever. Still running Shabby's modified kernel. Wonder if I would see any difference switching to a different one? Or maybe going to a custom rom is the only thing that will get this phone smooth.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ntajlis:
Try ktoonsez kernel.

SPH-L720_The. Blu KUBAN !
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
^^^this. Also you might have something else going on as I really didn't have much lag to begin with before using crossbreeder and frandom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] CCallahan:
Installed and for now using ktoonsez own settings. Seems to be running smooth but will need to use it for a few more days to really know.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] XxXPachaXxX:
Why here you are using a modularized frandom? Isn't better to implement in the kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
This thread is a little old. The frandom.ko module here was the first to be compiled for the sprint variant of the samsung galaxy s4. It was done to generate interest in frandom. And it was quite successful.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mw86:
Feel like tying to follow the directions in crossbreeder thread to make your frandom.ko a punchmod module? Id love to try to add it. I need one with a similar kernel version. Yours being newer my still work on older kernel. Mine is 3.4.5 kernel yours may be 3.4.49 which is way newer but id love to give it a try. Other crossbreeder users could benefit if works.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] devoureddreams:
Seems to work very well flashed crossbreeder with kt me4 kernel and seems to be alot more responsive and less scrolling lah
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
So you used the punchmod to accomplish this? If so congratulations.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] devoureddreams:
Im not for sure if i even did it right, I just flashed crossbreeder then kernel, may not even be working more or less in my head
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Well you did it right. Ktoonsez's kernels include frandom :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] econan1214:
Is it the more gps locked, the better the signal will be?

Mine will never exceed 10/25. It is not good enough right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
You're locked on 10 out of 25 satellites? That's damn good.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AbirXtreme:
So the Sony Acro S comes with a shatter proof film or screen protector which is supposed to hold the glass in its place if it shatters ? :eek:, what good will that do ? now i was thinking of removing it an apply a standard screen protector over the screen, my question is many people say the raw screen is much more responsive (specially the buttons) and the screen appears brighter ? so should i go for it or keep it ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] konaes:
It will keep the pieces in the phone and thus protect yourself, your children or pets from cuts. You can also probablys use the phone with the cracked screen if all pieces are in place. I got some nasty scratches in mine, so I removed it and ordered a gadgetshieldz screen protector. Can't say I noticed any difference with factory protector off...

Installation of the new protector was easy, since the phone is water resistant.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Justananomaly:
Well,

It's been a good run guys. My personal T989 broke long ago beyond repair, and now my dev unit has a cracked screen which no longer functions and they want, with their "Premium Handset Protection" that I've paid them $8 for every month since December 2011, a $150 deducible to fix it.

I'm up for my $50 down upgrade which will cost me $17/month for a few months but my bill will go down $20 because of the upgrade, and I'm going the Nexus route from now on (holding off until after Google IO in case they announce something). I hope that you all enjoy your T989's, it's a really great device. Maybe I'll see some of you in the future.

Thanks for the good times, the minibaths, the laughs, and the dev builds.

Hello All, I am facing an issue whereby my WiFi reception is nearly hopeless after I updated to CM10.1. Anybody got a fix for this?
[HTC One X] jamfx1:
Hi,

i am facing the same issue. My Wifi is nearly down to no connection althoug I am only 2meters away from my router. I tried installing a new Baseband-version (Endeavoru_Radio_5.1204.162.29) but still no change.

I have CyanogenMod 10.1 with Android 4.2.2 on my HTC One X.

Any suggestions would be great!

Thanks

I'm also having WiFi problems with my HTC One X (running CM10.2). I can connect to a network and after a minute or so the connection is dropped... Other forums suggest it's an HTC issue but since I'm running CM10.2 I suspect it's something else. Any pointers are appreciated.
[HTC One X] sagizmo:
Its not an HTC issue im sure of it. Too many people have this problem only with the Cyanogenmod. The stock rom has no issues. I tested. Im on the latest RC version and it also has that problem. Get more than 3 meters away from the router and BAM. no signal
[HTC One X] Won't be druv:
Lots of people have posted with a similar problem on stock, myself included.

Well I have swapped roms to test. The stock rom works perfect with regard to wifi. Not a huge deal for me, but would be nice to get this working.

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] astarothcy:
I am running up-to-date stock fw on my Droid Inc 4G LTE. I was out of the USA for a week and didn't bother getting a SIM for the country I was in so I just worked off WiFi the whole time with mobile network disabled. At some point, I was playing around with settings and found the high power setting that improves reception at the expense of battery life. I enabled it and worked with it for a few days without issue, it actually worked pretty nicely. I did notice a couple of reboots happen but it didn't seem associated with that setting (yet).

On my way back I was at the airport, and I started off with the setting disabled but couldn't get good signal, so I enabled it. I then looked at the list of detected networks and was about to select one to connect to, when suddenly my phone rebooted. Great, I thought, now I have to wait for this to boot. Except, once it hit the "droid eye" screen where it's loading the OS, it rebooted again. Then it basically kept doing that ad infinitum.

I booted into rescue mode (Vol Down + Pwr) and the only options I really had were to try booting again (still looping) or to reflash stock firmware, which was an awful thing to have to do at an airport with no recent backup, but I did it. It worked fine after that, but I lost all my text messages, app settings, a bunch of downloaded podcasts and audiobooks, had to spend an hour or so reinstalling every app and another hour setting everything up again. Not cool.

But yeah, pretty sure this was related to the high power wifi setting (perhaps in conjunction with having mobile network disabled). I can't really substantiate that with much evidence and don't have the time to try to reproduce it, but I'm just throwing this out there as a report.
[HTC Inspire 4G] joshjje:
EDIT: Nevermind, I called ATT to double check and they gave me a different code that worked. Sorry for the post.

I know this gets asked alot, but the information, situations, and answers out there are so many it is difficult to determine what needs to be done, so I am hoping someone can at least point me in the right direction.

I had unlocked my bootloader using htcdev, installed 4ext recovery, and flashed latest Cyanogenmod. I have been wanting to switch to T-mobile (I know about the possibility of not having 4g with that) and come to find out, entering the Network PUK code doesnt work in Cyanogen..

I gleaned that I needed to re-flash stock rom and then try to unlock, but I did this, and it still isnt accepting the code, argh. Do I need to relock my bootloader or do anything special? I got this code straight from ATT. With the ATT SIM in the phone, it doesnt ask for it, I restart phone with my T-mobile SIM in, and it asks for the code, but always says its incorrect. How is it checking this anyway, as it doenst seem to be communicating over the mobile network.

Any ideas would be much appreciated, thanks.
