Looking forward to the next build.

I've been getting great results with this kernel, 5 hours of asphalt 8 at 50% brightness, 6+ sot on normal use, I don't get any battery drains at night, and it's so SMOOTH. I could not achieve such smoothness on ANY other kernel.

[G2 Android Development] MB525:
An Entry in Github shows this:

"drivers	Add exfat to drivers/Makefile	July 14, 2014"

Latest kernel is from July 9, 2014, so probably next release comes with exFAT if it is not included in v0.41, but

"v0.4 fixed exfat support (untested)"

suggests it already is.

I care less about faux's sound, I think G2 has already an amazing sound quality by stock. I'm also afraid that any modification in the sound control will affect the Bluetooth APT-X codec and quality.

If I want to flash the cloudytock kernel, what should I do to completely clean the bruce Kernel?

The file that Kernel Tweaker has edited matters?

[G2 Android Development] queerquirks:
It doesn't matter, just flash it over, no need for cache /dalvik too actually cause it doesn't affect any kernel stuff.

If you wanna be extra safe, dirty flash your rom then install the kernel of your choice

I have to apologize for this, it's my fault. Every time I manage to find a good ROM or a good kernel and decide to stick with it, this happens: development stops. It happened so many times over the last few years that I begin to believe it's related.

So once again, I'm sorry guys.

Relax guys, github says he changed something 11 days ago. So he is still active.

It is mid summer, maybe he is sitting at a beach in Spain sipping his cocktail.

Besides, he said he wanted to keep it simple. Can't keep it simple if you update it every day, unless you suk at your work and need to keep fixing things. Which is not the case.
[G2 Android Development] TraCerTz:
Indeed, this kernel is awesome, and tbh it doesn't need anything else.. It's great as it is. No random FC or reboots so far and I've been using bruce's kernel for 2 weeks.

Lucky you. For others it needs a static MAC. And it is worth the effort.
[G2 Android Development] fallenwout:
I don't have that. Stock rom.
[G2 Android Development] MB525:
Just to make sure: Your MAC does not begin with 00:90:4C:...?

That would mean it's a G3-ROM thingy. But why do Stock, Cloudy, Simple, Dorimanx work and Darknel and bruce2728 not?

So you prefer a Kernel which is updated like every day and still having bugs in it? And after 6-7 release the dev reverts to older version because its running better? Oh and a dev who says "best kernel update, smooth as it never was" in every update? (but is reverting back.. lol).. then go and change your kernel or stick with stock.. easy

One answer

Can i underclock GPU? How?
[G2 Android Development] masteryx:
One long (but well documented) answer.

You can use a tweaker app, such as Kernel Tweaker or Trickster Mod, but please note that as long as MP-Decision is enabled (this is Qualcomm's hotplug and frequency service for the CPU and GPU and is ON by default) any setting you make to the CPU and GPU frequencies will be overruled by it. In other words, you set the frequencies but they don't stick for long. Disabling MP-Decision is possible, though not recommended because for this kernel it is the only available service. What it does? Turns off unused cores, limits frequency when the CPU becomes too hot and increases it back when the CPU cools down - stuff like that. Really useful ;)

Worst case scenario? Your CPU runs at a high frequency for too long, overheats and possibly damages itself or the motherboard, ruining your phone. Now if your plan is to underclock, you should be safe with MP-Decision disabled and a low GPU frequency enforced, but to be really safe you should also underclock the CPU to make sure it doesn't get too hot. To my knowledge, MP-Decision limits CPU to 1.7 GHz when the temperature is too high, so this value or 1.9 GHz MAX should be fine.
[G2 Android Development] S3y:
Hello.

I didn't know about MP-decision , thanks for explanation :D.

For only whatsapp, internet , youtube video and other thing , i can underclock CPU and GPU with MP- decision off, but when i play ,i must reset the CPU and GPU value with MP - decision on. Right?

I'm very careful for temp °C , in fact i use cool tool to monitor battery temp , and my max i 35/36° in summer ;).

What appen if i do underclock with MP-decision on?
[G2 Android Development] Robi959:
My result with bruce kernel
[G2 Android Development] masteryx:
Short answer: if you want performance -- like when you play games -- then you can simply turn MP-Decision back on. In a short while it will replace the values you set with its own, based on its algorithms. For example (and this answers your second question), if you underclock and leave MP-Decision on, the service will be like: "well, the CPU is cool enough to step up the frequency for better performance" and as soon as an application demands this performance MP-Decision will overwrite your underclocked value with the highest value safe for the CPU's temperature at that moment. If your CPU is cool then MAX_freq will definitely be set at 2,23 GHz. I'm sorry, I don't know exactly what frequencies are set at which temperatures.

I see you like my long answers. Then maybe you'll also like this, best explanation of MP-Decision wrote by Trickster Mod's developer. He understood how it works an implemented a hack in his app to enforce user values (called "frequency lock") but for me it doesn't work -- the values are still overwritten if MP-Decision is enabled.
[G2 Android Development] Robi959:
Today result is even better. Crazy !

[G2 Android Development] S3y:
Thank you again :D

The last 2 doubts.

1) In this moment i'm with Pardus HD 7.6 and bruce 0.41. I use ondemand/row , and to have better perfomance , i have turned up the value "sampling rate"( from 10k to 160k). Do you know that value?

2)In roms not stock based (cyanogen/PA ecc) i have more 3/4 °C compared to stock.

In that roms , is there MP -decision on ? Or is only a question of rom/kernel?
[G2 Android Development] masteryx:
No, I am not familiar with governor tweaking. When I need performance, I simply change governors from ondemand to interactive or performance.

Yes, it's kernel dependent and I expect every kernel to include it. Other methods can be implemented and used instead but MP-Decision should always be there as a default fall-back. Whether it's enabled or not I don't know but kernel tweaking apps will let you know.

[G2 Android Development] Giocarro:
[MENTION=5137752]tedeha[/MENTION], as a rule of thumb the most recent is better because usually it get fixes and improvements, but if you have a specific issue with one versione is safe to use an older one, as the main target for using a custom kernel is to improve performance and user experience.
