You checked my kernel thread. There i posted an antutu score over 5200.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
Oh, I didn't know of your thread! :) Cool, I'm gonna check now.

It is my own score, I did scores of all the ROMs I've used on my i9000 always with about the same apps and w/o OC.

The scores can vary +/- 200 pt, best is to make several tests right after boosting RAM and take the middle value.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerRomtester:
I know but most of the tests i score above 5100.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
You either have less apps or better device than me :D

I think I've got only in 3-4 cases score higher than 5K (out of some 30 )

Well i just switched from slim 4.3 (with stock kernel tho) and it was terrible. Lagged as hell, I am a slim user since the begining but it was no good from 4.1 up speed-wise, slim ics was great and the last rom i was happy with, then it was only worse. Maybe something wrong with my device? I used clean install everytime..

Could you name some? Which you think is the fastest?

Sorry for the offtopic here..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DerRomtester:
In my history 6 above 5100 two below 5000 and two over 5000. You are right i dont have mouch apps because i like a fast device :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
None of the KK roms I've used on my i9000 were as fast and responsive as this ROM. We are hopefully not totally off topic, because the best performance on KK roms came for me usually after flashing kasper_h's Mackay kernel that allegedly uses very similar codes like this ROM's stock kernel (and gives it such boost in performance).

In my (very subjective) feeling regarding the speed, the fastest KK roms I've used were:

SlimKat with Mackay kernel (Antutu: 5207)

C-Rom with stock kernel (Antutu: 4935)

Mackay OMNI with stock (Mackay) kernel (Antutu: 5197)

As you can see, Antutu gave me bit different results than my feeling. Nameless ROM has felt quite good for me, but I've tried only earliest beta versions. CyanAOSP with stock kernel felt quite fast (Antutu: 4954), but not many apps were on it- I couldn't install GApps on it, setup manager had FC every time. Cyanogenmod 11 was bit laggy for me. I haven't tried yet quite many ROMs: Dirty Unicorns, PA, Resurrection Remix, PAC-man, Illusion, Avatar, Thinkingbridge, Supernexus, Dokdo and MoKee roms (all KK). I've tried some of those ROMs as variants on my other devices but none was spectacularly fast... rather normal.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hollandais:
Yes, we're not here for talking about Antutu benchmark, but it's also for me the first time I reach 5178 points with my I9000. Kernel included in the Rom 4.1.7, and nothing special.

In case people are changing rom from CM9 to an other I want to emphasize having a backup ready of your Efs folder (in root). Imei was gone and read that is common coming from CM9 to newer build. Reparing was easy. Deleted files in Efs-folder with fake Imei and copied backuped Efs-files to the Efs-folder in root with a root explorer (Solid, Es, etc). Reboot and Imei was fixed.

Back on Slim Bean 4.3.1 Official 2.2 now and will probably keep this one untill death of my i9000. Very smooth and so far non lag what so ever and at the very least same battery life as ICS 2014 with my setup. And it just works better and more stable than what I experienced with ICS. And haven't even retried other kernel yet. More than 125 apps installed. And Gravitybox JB among others compatible and working with great features such as transparant statusbar.

I am happy again with my SGS1. And certainly no more KK experiments for me on this device.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] knuckles1978:
Maybe in benchmarks. Not IRL use. Certainly not in UI performance. Also, the stock web browser flies with this build, it's way faster when zooming and scrolling. The scrolling is very noticeably better in the Tapatalk app also.

For years I avidly flashed every new build of every OS. I thought KK was the fastest OS yet, but now I see that it was faster than JB, but it's not faster than this.

Looks like I'll be not be using KK again until I get a new phone that can run it as fast as this phone runs this ROM. And even when you get a KK ROM that runs decent, give it a week or two of use with a few apps installed and it gets frustratingly slow.

Visually the only difference is the notification shade, because I was using Nova launcher anyway.

dats d only thing slow in dis rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
Try Nova or Apex launcher instad.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] -MaoR-:
I noticed that when I enter to "apps" in the settings and go to "running", it shows I have like 130-120MB free RAM.

But other apps that can tell the free RAM space (Like Antutu for example) always say something like 70MB of RAM are free.

Bug?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] -MaoR-:
Now try to reflash it with the provided Mackay kernel that comes with this ROM.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wurstel:
you mean i should just reflash the rom? and that fixes everything?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
Yes, without wipes.

I think that I saw few days ago direct kernel download link on kasper_h's rootaxbox
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] -MaoR-:
Anyone?

Yes, Always when you come into problems with a ROM you flashed, just flash it again on top.

Some corrupted\missing files might cause these kind of problems and flashing the ROM again fixes it.

Hey how did you get Gravitybox JB to work? Did you install the module through Xposed or the apk itself?

And which version?

Thanx!

And thank you kasper for this excellent piece of art.. well done!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] juliatan:
As I mentioned in that post I switched back to Slim Bean 4.3.1 Official 2.2 after having tried this ICS 2014 and some KK's. There is no Gravitybox for ICS. A simular but not as good X-module is Xblast Tools which ought to be compatible with ICS. However not every feature works (anymore) in ICS.. But many did in my case. Almost always a reboot was required when changing a compatible option. Xposed 2.4.1 worked on this ICS with Xblast. Xposed 2.5 and Xblast did not work. One can find Xblast Tools among others in download section within Xposed app.

Thanks for the explanation. I read your post again and saw you were actually referring to JB.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TheAbalone:
Hello!

Your rom is great! I had some slowdowns in the last days and now did a radical step. I removed the gapps package because the google play services used a big amount of ram.

There is a NOGAPPS Package on xda to replace some libraries that some apps need (Tasker, Maps, ...) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1715375

Now i think the phone is even faster and much more responsive.

I installed an old Maps version v6 and an old youtube version which don't need google play services.

Till now the only negative aspect is no play store. I don't use gmail.

Edit: there is a solution for playstore, but i haven't tried that yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] milot.tahiraj:
Im upgrading back to SlimBean 4.2.2 or 4.3 (im not sure yet). And thats because Im missing some features I used to.

Thank you very very much Kasper_h for this great Rom, and for thr job you did for us. I used this rom for weeks and weeks and it had not a single bug.

So anyone who want a really stable and fuctional rom in everey aspect I recomand this Mackay CM9.

Thank you again Kasper_h. Wish you the best.

First of all thanks for keeping the good old SGS alive.

I tried to flash this Rom coming from SlimKat stable. I flashed Semaphore kernel 1.30 (The ICS kernel - or must I flash a gingerbread rom?), rebooted to recovery, then flashed this rom and the gapps.

The rom was working fine, but the home button didn't work and I couldn't install gapps. In recovery mode there was no problem but they didn't appear in the app drawer. I've read a lot in this forum, but i didn't find a solution for my problem.

Thanks

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
Best flash with Odin now stock Gingerbread JVU or JVZ with PIT file (re-partition checked) which will revert it to the stock partition sizes. Then root it with CF-root or Speedmod or Semaphore kernel and flash then this ROM with gapps. This ROM's stock kernel is the fastest ICS kernel I know and it features beautiful TWRP recovery, so you won't need another kernel.

Im very interesting in installing this rom (im on c-rom kk now).

I'd like to know if those are available (i missed them in another ics rom, but ultimately switched to kk because clock was freezing after a while) :

- can we reconfigure the hardware softbuttons ? (like, hold menu to switch apps, hold back to kill etc)

- can we have BLN ?

- is there a function in task switcher to kill all apps ?

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
1-yes

2-IDK what BLN means

3-no such exists. Many apps revive a second after you kill them. U use long press back button to kill presently used app, Greenify to not let some work in background and Clean Master to boost the memory

It won't hurt to try the fast route first.

Yeah, I meant Semaphore 1.3.0. – flash this one first, reboot recovery, then flash CM9, reboot. If it finishes booting up properly, reboot to recovery again and flash Mackay.

If this doesn't work, use Odin or heimdall to go back to stock.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] danero2005:
I've tried that and ended up installing 2.3.6 and had to remember how it was done back then. After applying the update , instalation went good but after the reboot I had a bootloop and after bootloop some glitches over the Mackay Logo so I had to go back , recovery wasn't working so what I did was to go back to download mode ...once again.

So , for me , pushing this rom over Dirty Unicorn didn't worked.

Maybe over CM11 will work but I will not try it again , it's very "painfull" :laugh:

Today I installed this Rom successfully on my wife's I9000. Later, though, I encountered an unknown problem while installing Xposed Framework. Deinstalling and reinstalling has not solved it.

Xposed Framework somehow is not getting necessary permissions to write to system, in order to activate and/or update itself, neither directly nor indirectly (via recovery and flashing the change as a zip). Below you see the screenshot I made.

The error mentions a "segmentation fault". Would anyone know what this is and how to solve it?

Don't worry, mate! :) we will get it easily to boot, but please check if you can create ADB logcat when it bootloops? It could be valuable for our developer for the debugging ;)

Opt.1: just reboot recovery with 3-button combo and reflash ROM. No wipe necessary.

Opt.2: Should it still loop, wipe cache and dalvik.

Opt.3: should it still loop even then, wipe system, reflash ROM and then your gapps.

Go into the recovery mode and flash the rom again and gapps, wipe cache and dalvik cache and reboot.

OK, then your issue was probably just kernel related (Gear)

The stock kernel here is the greatest available for ICS, IMHO- yet I might be subjective. For me it also feels very fast... my Antutu also found it is the fastest ;)

Incidentally this is the best ROM I have tried on my i9000. I have tried a few of the KK ones and really there is nothing I miss apart perhaps from couple of visual niceties (transparent status bar, transparent SIM PIN entry) but not bothered, the phone behaves snappy quick, light and I dont have to worry about uninstalling anything because it is slowing things down like in KK:

JB I didnt like. And in future I may give the Slim ICS a try but with this kernel from kasper_h which is brilliant.

Congratulations, the ROM is here to stay now on the phone (and I used to love flashing new ROMs)

By the way, what is the stock kernel in the ROM, the one with the 720 recording and playing? When I go into video camera, it allows it but is it actually 720 ? I thought I read it was going to go out with the 720 playing but not recording.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tetakpatak:
I think our developer has managed to enable total support for 720p since v1.6 or v1.7 (I'm sure it's easy to find it in the changelog) but it wasn't there in the earlier builds.
