hi

well, I prefer the kernel with the modifications Firtecy.

the rom is very good, fantastic.

thank you,

on the status bar transparent, I can use the APP, tinted status bar, to have invisel bar in apps? or do I have conflicts? I will test.

else the phone is super fluid, can add to swappiness option, the control performance? or add more until zram?

Excuse the English

thank you, sorry the questions, is not obliged to answer,

I feel that not need to move again on the phone is very good.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
I fact the kernel Firtecy provided includes a 16mb ramhack. This might be a bit unstable, it hasn't been tested on a bigger scale.

And one warning, that kernel includes a GPU OC, which probably isn't a good idea (based on some tests pengus did in the past).

I've asked [MENTION=5124291]Firtecy[/MENTION] to compile a new kernel with this commit reverted, which should be available soon - and I'd advice to flash it right away then.

Edit: Oh and I have bsods with that kernel currently.

Don't ask, just try the app and share your feedback ;)

It depends on the hooks the module uses, but I don't think it should affect it's functionality (if it's compatible with cm).

Regarding performance options, you can change the swappines at settings - performance - memory settings.

That's the included performance control, personally I wouldn't advice to install a separate Performance Control version additionally (as written here sometimes) unless you really have a valid reason to do so.

If you want to try out more stuff you could enable KSM as well aquí, which should work better in KitKat than with previous versions, but I didn't test that yet.

I currently have no plans to add any other performance controls or options, you have more than plenty.

ZRAM makes a huge difference, and I would keep it at the value that's preset.

If someone wants to go further you can always add an init.d script to change pretty much every value to your liking, there's no need to expose more options to the end user.

Oh...i haven't tried new kernel because i'm using swap already....

Btw...this rom...dunno if it's just a subjective feeling...but it's feels smoother...more vivid in color...even with dirty install (too lazy doing full wipe right now :p)

You really do a great job sir...

(May be only me) Just report I install without flash anymore kernel use kernel come with rom my phone work grate BUT after flash Firtecy kernel get more ram from 341 to 355 MB my phone freez need to remove battery.
[LG Optimus 2x] topzias:
Mine is freezing too after flashing Firtecy kernel.
[LG Optimus 2x] tobi14:
no problem with the new ROM and Firtecy kernel with OC to 1.3Ghz

Heavy use more then 6h since install last day additional no problem with deep sleep at night :good:

PS: I made "clean install" with delete the system, cache and dalvik cache partition.
[LG Optimus 2x] BS86:
also having freezes and bsods with firtecys kernel - and even when connected to the charger, battery level falls

could not even open syslog to fetch logs because the system constantly froze or crashed - so: sorry for not providing logs
[LG Optimus 2x] lukino993:
unfortunately same for me too much bsod, i hope you can fix this because with zram working and ramhack the phone was a lot faster than before :/
[LG Optimus 2x] vanko11595:
After install firtecy's kernel OC settings in performance control was 1500 MHZ. May that is the reason for bsods?

Try to change it to 1300 MHZ and check "Apply automatically on boot".
[LG Optimus 2x] BS86:
already have set it to 1200 (was always stable for me) - was the first thing i checked after flashing ;)

i suppose it is the GPU OC that caused the extreme malfunctions - or maybe the ramhack - have now flashed alpha31 again and phone seems to be stable - with zram activated through performance control app
[LG Optimus 2x] lukino993:
Zram for me with alpha 31 doesn't work...i have installed performance control but this is what i see..any suggestions ?

[LG Optimus 2x] vanko11595:
zram works only with Firtecy's kernel. Read posts 1731, 1732, 1735.

With full wipe and OC settings 1000 MHZ Firtecy's kernel has no bsods or freezes till now. The phone is working just fine. Recharge is ok. I will report later if the kernel has any issues.
[LG Optimus 2x] lukino993:
So also [MENTION=5077573]BS86[/MENTION] hasn't enabled it ?

Edit:for me bsod also with 1000 mhz

[LG Optimus 2x] BS86:
zram works when enabled with performance control - even on alpha31

the values in the screenshot would be 0 if it would not work

the rom-own zram is currently only working with firtecys kernel - thats correct - but this does not influence performance controls zram

for me it is is working and already using it with 40MB on alpha 31
[LG Optimus 2x] vanko11595:
Did you make full wipe-clean install. Wipe everything except external SD in TWRP.
[LG Optimus 2x] lukino993:
ok i'll try when i can .thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] vanko11595:
Firtecy said: "And keep in mind that a full wipe is recommended. I have dirty flashed it over the last build from tonyp and i had many problems. So if you have problems in any kind and have not made a full wipe, make one."

So if you didn't make full wipe before update to the latest rom/kernel don't make any bug reports.:p
[LG Optimus 2x] lukino993:
i did a full wipe before updating,but installed firtecy kernel after..i'll try to full wipe
[LG Optimus 2x] Firtecy:
Okay since many of you reported some problems with the kernel i will make an update. Please read carefull.

First of all: It is recommended to flash one of those or original kowalski kernel over my last kernel build

The last kernel i posted was the kernel i personally use and i had no problems. So it seems like some star boads do not work with all stuff. I have removed the kernel from tonyps basketbuild.

I have build 3 kernels.

1. Kowalksi Kernel: I have rebuild the original kowalski kernel with the zram fix. That will mean it should run stable for all user that were using the kowalski kernel before and thought it was stable. There are

no modifications

Now the others are my personal kernels: GPU Overclock made it by accident in the kernel (thanks to [MENTION=3605868]tonyp[/MENTION] for seeing that). That should not happen, so i have removed it. That can be the cause for higher battery drain and performance decreases (the gpu runs hotter and the cpu would scale down to prevent more heat).

There are 2 versions: 16MB Ramhack and no ramhack.

Now it is time your time to test all them (only if you want). If someone tests all three i would be thankful, because then i can try to improve the kernel. If you tested all please report your impressions and compare them!

So here is the new download link (yes i have now my own basketbuild account :D )

https://s.basketbuild.com/devs/firtecy/p990/kernel/tests/

Kowalski Kernel (+ Zram fix) -> kernel_26_05_14_kowalski.zip

Try flashing M1 and see how it responds. You won't have wifi but you can still test it to compare :)

Have fun! :D
[LG Optimus 2x] Supreme_One:
I'm going to do a full wipe. So I should first flash the new ROM build after that flash the kernel from yesterday(which caused bsods) and then flash one of those 3 new kernels? I don't get it. Do you also recommend to do a reboot after the phone boots for the first time after flashing everything?
[LG Optimus 2x] bentcissé:

I did a full wipe and installed it with Kowalski latest alpha kernel.

It seemed to be heavy and slow even before the titanium backup restore something I never have seen again.I think the previous build is better compared to the new one.

Never mind thank you guys for your effort maybe the next one will be better. [emoji6]
[LG Optimus 2x] vanko11595:
may be deep sleep is the reason for bsods. i did not experienced problems initialy since my phone was charging (prevents deep sleep).

[LG Optimus 2x] BS86:
do you even read what we write in here?!?

the combination you installed is the most stable one - but you need to activate zRAM on another way then expected by the ROM, then it does not feel "heavy".

install performance control from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2444376

set max frequency to 1000MHz and activate zRAM and set both to apply on boot - zram can be activated at 60% (in reality it is only 30% resulting in 105MB additional zRAM and do a reboot

then give it some minutes to finish booting (about 5 minutes) - absolutely not heavy

if you want to try the ramhack or zram-fixed kernel by firtecy, disbale the apply on boot for zram in performance control
[LG Optimus 2x] vanko11595:
it seems that deep sleep is not causing bsods with kernel_26_05_14_kowalski.zip. :good:
[LG Optimus 2x] lukino993:
Yes that one works also for me but only 18 % zram and if i try to change the value to for example 30% it reboots..so there isnt a way to change zram value with performance control

Inviato dal mio LG-P990 utilizzando Tapatalk
[LG Optimus 2x] vanko11595:
it reboots and shows 30%, 60%..... in performance control but in reality it is 61mb=18%. if you check "set on boot" zram is stopped after reboot.

dunno if it is possible to use more than 18% zram.

I enabled swap and it seems that zram and swap are working fine together.

hi

Good afternoon, I have to stand with kernel pengus unchanged, despite the modifications the Firtecy are excellent,

I enabled zram manually, and the phone is super fluid.

slowness in the video, is due to the SCR, which records the screen of 2x.

excuse my english

[LG Optimus 2x] BS86:
for me, it works and stays after reboot with tonyps/firtecys may-build and alpha31
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Thanks to the hint of [MENTION=5077573]BS86[/MENTION] that the PerformanceControl app works I investigated how it is done there and managed to fix zram for the kowalski kernel as well.

I've added a init.d script which loads the module and activates zram:

https://github.com/tonyp/android_vendor_cm/commit/53ad5a6161a815405caa3634083cb42c20f7f0a5

The commit will be in the next build.

If you want to use it right now you need to create the following init.d script.

(Yes I could trim the script a lot but it was just a quick try if it works with the PerformanceControl method, I will overhaul it later on, but g2g now)

#!/system/bin/sh
# Activate zram regardless of kernel support

local cpus=1;
local val=62914560;
local v=$(( val/cpus ));
local ncpus=$(( cpus - 1 ));

if busybox [ -f /system/lib/modules/zram.ko ]; then
if busybox [ -z "`busybox lsmod | busybox grep zram`" ]; then
busybox insmod /system/lib/modules/zram.ko;
fi;
busybox modprobe zram zram_num_devices=$cpus;
fi;

for i in `busybox seq 0 $ncpus`; do
busybox echo $v > /sys/block/zram$i/disksize;
done;
for i in `busybox seq 0 $ncpus`; do
busybox mkswap /dev/block/zram$i;
busybox swapon /dev/block/zram$i;
done;
return;

Don't forget to set the executable permissions.

About 3 new kernel for me badluck all make phone reboot after turn on about 3 minute so back to KK 127 alpha 31 work as normal no reboot
[LG Optimus 2x] Gainer5:
At first, thanks for the new build and kernels.

The rom or kernel isn't stable for me, I did a full wipe as recommended and tried some of the new kernels (at the moment firtecys no ram hack version). Every 2-10 minutes, the phone either freezes (75%) or does a reboot (25%). In the first case, I have to pull the battery out. Usually, the phone gets pretty hot then and the battery drains extremely fast.

I added a logfish (no logcats for the penguins^^). I'm not entirely sure if this one helps, but I could reproduce it very fast if it doesn't help.

Thanks :)

First time I've unpugged the phone from the charger with cm 11. I'm wondering why there is for about 40 min of cpu awake when kernel wakelocks show max 3 minutes. Maybe some nasty application?

I've also noticed broken Privacy Guard which keeps constantly permanent icon in statusbar even after terminating the app, the only way to get rid of it is reboot. Also no customizations (changing icons with Xbatterychanger, themes) doesn't work (with themes getting FC's). [not asking for fix, just letting you know].

hi

For me the ROM is excellent, with zram and swappiness manually activated

and also the autokillmemory APP. 2x is the other phone.

I had some minor bugs with the other kernel, but the phone was very fluid, but when hibernated the phone needed to remove the battery.

Also felt some Freezes when install the kernel pengus clean, but it's normal. I left the phone about 10 minutes without touching it, then activated the zram and other configurations in the video I posted above,

Never felt so fluid phone. :p

Another strange thing is whenever I do a full wipe and flash this ROM I see that Kowalski Kernel 3.1 127 is already flashed, but when I try to flash the kernel my phone freezes. I mentioned this problem before but someone said that an older version of KK is flashed you need to flash the latest kernel seperately.
[LG Optimus 2x] lukino993:
in the latest build tonyp and firtecy updated also kernel to newer version (127)
[LG Optimus 2x] Supreme_One:
And thats KK 3.1 #127? So whats the point to flash a kernel over this if everything works fluid?
[LG Optimus 2x] pijas82:
Install the ROM, clean construction, do not change the kernel, let it be what comes ROM. When you wake up the phone, install the perf. control and enable zram, KSM and swappiness wait a few more days for another kernel, this is just my opinion, use the MX camera, and discard the other.

You can also return to official ICS, and then reinstall the Cm11, root .....

I had 2 friends with similar problems

in the latter case, let's pray it is not hardware problems.

when you install the rom, let alone shall without touching the phone for about 10 min. then activate zram ....
