Okay here is an update guys:

1. adding freelunch is so much more than just adding a governor. Decimalman wrote freelunch by himself and is the only kernel dev to actually have it implemented in his kernel because he built his kernel so much around it and vice versa. I had to change thousands of lines of code just to get it to boot, and then it was still boot looping. I am a little uncomfortable basing so much of my code around someone else's work without his blessing so I asked it.

2. finally got it to boot and stay on for more than 3 seconds wooo.

3. upon fixing the bootloop issue I have graphical glitches that require me to turn off hardware overlays to fix. This isn't the end of the world, but if I can't get the kernel stable and back on smoothness, I will revert freelunch and remove all changes. I don't want to release any kernel with known issues, that just seems pointless to me.

4. I contacted decimalman and hopefully he can help me through some of the remaining issues with the graphical glitches, I am on his timeline now so I can't say when builds will go out. If the demand requests it, I can put out an incremental build tomorrow with just the latest drivers and a fix to the reboots some people are getting, but no freelunch (just let me know if you guys want that).

5. any other requests are welcome!

6. decimalman is a freaking genius... his code makes my head spin

First, I just want to say great kernel! I'm really liking it so far. I was curious if anyone has tried this with CM 10.2 for D2ATT (8.14.2). 8.12 worked flawlessly with 0.2.1 Release 6, but when I flashed 8.14.2 I noticed some UI tearing issues. Thanks a ton for all of your work on this!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aeppacher:
Just added latest update that addresses this! Enjoy
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aeppacher:
OKAY GUYS SOME UPDATES I DIDN'T WANT TO CLUTTER OP WITH

freelunch was a really really really big fail. By the time i finally got it to work I had basically changed my kernel to be about 80% of the dkp kernel. I had to change so much just to get it work and it really felt as if I might as well have just made a dkp duplicate. He works so much of his kernel around freelunch and vice versa that you can't really add it into another kernel without rewriting a lot of it (which changes it to no longer be freelunch).

I decided to remove it guys. I am really sorry but with so much code having to be changed and then getting screen tearing (his thread reported some of this too) I decided I was going to remove it.

SheepColors (name is in testing phases :P) so I modified some of the kernels colors to try a produce a less yellowish screen and more cool colors (its kinda like trinity colors). This is disabled by default since I realize not everyone wants this. To enable it you have to go to advanced settings (in settings app built into the rom) and change the screen temp and lock the device and unlock it. It doesn't matter what color you change to, it will change it regardless (so if you are on cool you can click on cool again, lock, unlock and it will work). It is a very minor change but let me know what you think. If you like it let me know and I will enable by default, if not, I will tweak til you guys like it.

CM SOURCES AND SCREEN TEARING. If you use the BionicSheep2v0.2.1 build on anything newer than the CM10.2 8-11 build you will get screen tearing. Also if you use the anything after BionicSheep2v0.2.1 build on anything before the CM10.2 8-11 build you will get screen tearing. NEW GOES WITH NEW, OLD WITH OLD. With new drivers and cm changes it just has to be like this. Just update both your rom and kernel to the newest builds and you will be happy

latest linux merges

reboots should be fixed but keep me posted!

-there might be a chance of pwncakes packaging my kernel into his rom by default so perhaps you will see that tomorrow (no promises)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tdpeek3:
You rock! Just flashed. No more UI issues and very smooth. I'll report back if anything comes up.

So just for fun I flashed Quantum v1, then flashed the kernel to see if there were any differences. Everything seemed pretty good but I noticed a slight lag compared stock Quantum, and that torch stopped working.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aeppacher:
Clear data on torch, it should not affect it though. The first 5 minutes or so the kernel is settings things up. Make sure mpdecision is off (it should be) and use recommended settings in op. I have been running it on Quantum v1 since early yesterday (he gave me an early release to test it) and I experience no lag. Please let me know if it continues after doing everything I suggested
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tdpeek3:
Hey there. I reflashed Quantum v1 and Gapps (newest version) wiped cache+dalvik, then flashed your kernel (release 7). I then performed the following steps:

1. Waited 5 minutes

2. Set the gov to asswax

3. Set IO to fifo

4. set Read Ahead Buffer to 1024

5. made sure mpdecision was off

6. setup trickster to load these settings on boot

7. cleared Torch cache

8. Reboot.

9. Checked settings in Trickster

10. Attempted to launch Torch but it failed

I then rebooted again and waited a bit. I noticed that the phone rebooted a couple of times so I set the max clock to 1512000. This seems to have taken care of the reboots but torch still doesn't work.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aeppacher:
Confirmed its not working. Will look into it. Also is the lag gone?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tdpeek3:
I'd say the lag is pretty much gone. It could be just my mind but the stock Quantum just felt a little bit smoother.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] caspersfi:
Pretty sure Torch is ROM related and has been fixed in the newest release.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tdpeek3:
I thought it was too but when I flash just the ROM, torch is OK. It's only after I flash the kernel that torch breaks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] caspersfi:
Oh my bad, I swear the Torch issue was with multiple users and different kernels.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aeppacher:
Right now with AOSP source being a mess with 2 branches and cm being based off the newer but buggy version and it all being so new these things are bound to happen. I will build with latest sources tonight and see if that fixes it! Will keep you guys updated.

Also the voltage fixes I changed on overclocks to help the few people with reboots seem to cause issues for others. Its difficult getting the right numbers because it might run well on my cpu at these voltages yet this might be too low or too high for others. This is why I implemented user voltage control so you guys can tweak it to your specific device needs. General rule of thumb is to increase or decrease the voltages on the last two clocks by 50 until it is fixed.

Also report back what numbers work for you guys so I can consider them for merges

HELP!!!

i just flashed the newest beta release for 4.3 on PA 3.96 and i have a series of things happening which all result in an unusable phone. i flashed this kernel on P.A. following all of the right steps. Now my phone wont boot. Three times in the past few hours it has actually fully booted. One time everything seemed ok and and normal but sure enough i shut down and attempted to boot. Once again later it fully booted But instead of working correctly it kept turning my screen on and off without me pressing the power button and then shuts down. Once it shuts down it will continue to only show the samsung logo or the bionic sheep samsung logo which ever it chooses to do. i cant get it to boot into recovery with the 3 button combo. the two times it did boot to recovery as soon as i pressed the screen in recovery the phone shut down and started to boot or not boot for that matter. the phone is not bricked because it stil; turns on and has started up but i cant even get into recovery to do a data reset or reinstall P.A. i have never had this problem until i flashed this kernel. Anyone have any ideas on whats going on and a fix for it??? Also when i do try to turn my phone on the home and volume buttons turn it on with a vibrate and the samsung logo but not the power button. PLEASE SOMEONE GIVE A QUICK RESPONSE IF POSSIBLE AS OF NOW I HAVE A NON WORKING PHONE WITH NO IDEA ON HOW TO FIX IT

^ what you need to do is boot into download mode and download the stock Odin image and flash that. Backup data if you can, you will lose it.

my phone wont even stay in download mode. it will bring up the option to choose volume up or volume down and then restart. Nothing like this has ever happened until i installed this kernel

thanks for the help but after my phone once again was mysteriously working again i took a deeper look into that power button and low and behold someone that listed every single problem i was having learned that the power button went to crap which totally makes sense to me because my button has always had a janky feel to it. i have a friend with a jtag dongle so ill try that first but all signs point to a faulty power key i.e. not staying in download mode or recovery, random screen on and off behavior as well as random reboots during boot sequence. If so i hope a repair wont cost too much

---------- Post added at 11:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:12 AM ----------

Only thing is it messed up my screen rotation when I turn it sideways it would go the opposite way and would be upside down so I went back to my sprint Bms kernel lol
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aeppacher:
Um, not sure if this is caused by my kernel, I haven't modified anything that would even affect rotation
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] churchey420:
Its because I was using it on a sprint phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rani9990:
Sprint's only difference is the accelerometer in the phone, which would explain his rotation problems.

Waiting to hear back from you, or maybe for a new release or something.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
If you took the links down because of one person losing IMEI, then it was a waste. You can lose your IMEI flashing anything, especially ROMs and kernels
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] niphoet:
Any idea when the 4.3 builds well be available again?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] caspersfi:
I lost my IMEI a while back as I was messing with TW/Aroma Installer. I did a bit of research on it after that.

IMO, and going by what I've read, 50% of losing your IMEI is random. Naturally there are plenty of factors that fall into it happening.

If ya'll haven't done it yet, find some links, do some reading, and BACKUP YOUR IMEI.

Peace of mind/problem solved :)

Now put the links back up!!!

:D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] 2new2care:
Definitely didn't mean to cause chaos. My IMEI was back after doing a restore. Is that normal? I don't have mine individually backed up.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
It depends. IMEI stuff is very weird. In waiting for a new build I say that aeppacher adds in a cm sync and the latest and greatest kernel.org update!

Alright errbuddddy. This IMEI business is a mess. What I did was restore to old backup and flash latest build (download is up) and magic it worked. I really have no clue what the heck has been up.
