In system/bin/ you'll find a script labeled nuclearwinter. This is what the 00kernelcompat file applied to. If you read through the script it becomes more clear why there were issues as it pertains directly to cpu"s".

"Team Vanir ([ROM] Commotio)

2 hours agoPublic

Offical Commotio B62 is out

http://www.emccann.net/dho/2-Commotio/B62/

And going up on*goo.im*shortly

http://goo.im/devs/DHO/2-Commotio

I know a couple devices have some issues (d710), but I have met all by B62 goals and looking forward to starting on B63 projects

If you like what you see, please spread the word of Vanir (and Commotio) @ your local forums.

Thanks to all those who have tested Vanir and the Commotio nightlies.* B63 nightly will be up in a few hours"
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] crossen0:
Commotio is themed differently?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
Yes
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] crossen0:
Is B62 KitKat?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] TMYINC:
Yep

Now this I like lol
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] arcane spade:
Anybody know where the data for something like quick settings tiles is stored? I'm having trouble with getting the changes to stick and yes... I'm a dirty dirty flasher so I'm trying to resolve without a clean wipe.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Ok so this was working great until I attempted to reboot this morning. Got stuck on the boot screen.....grrrrr!
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Efrenjr15:
Ummm might wanna clean flash sir its always good to wipe it every now and then and keep it clean :-p
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
This was a clean flash, I'm downloading 1/23 now to see if its any better.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
To be honest, as long as that script exists there may be compatibility issues. Basically the ROM is trying to run a script that controls the CPUs while the kernel is also trying to boot and load its specific cpu settings.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Went ahead and flashed 1/23. Saw the script still so I just renamed it to 00kernelcompat.bak and flashed KT kernel. All is well!
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] amosavitas:
B62 boots fine with KT 1/23 and the file
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
Google Plus and I need to have a a chat about using cache space wisely.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] bkrickles:
I had to remove that file to flash the latest with kt kernel.

I wouldn't boot without removal.

It's not a big deal and I do like the way kt kernel runs on this.

When I press my home button to wake the device, it's definitely a tad faster with the custom kernel and everything is just a little smoother
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
I agree. I prefer the newer KT kernel for sure. I ran the ROM for a while on vanir stock kernel and I had the same experience. Just found the newer to be smoother.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
The slow wake was enough to make me very aggravated. So I'm glad I can flash KT on this. Super dooper instant now wake up!
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Crossoverdoc:
Do you guys like ART better than optimized dalvik? I've never used the latter.

And what is the script I have to change to flash KT when I flash the latest nightly?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
I like ART better. The file is in: /system/etc/init.d/00kernelcompat either delete it or change the file extension to .bak
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
Well, since this is going to be an ongoing thing... I've updated the OP flashing directions to include these details regarding flashing custom kernel. The need to do this may change in future builds but for now...

°°For those flashing custom kernels°°

Be aware- Vanir includes a script that enables their own kernel tweaks. This script does not play well with flashing custom kernels. The solution!

Flash ROM

Navigate to- /system/etc/init.d/

Delete the file- 00kernelcompat

Reboot to recovery

Flash kernel

Profit!

You can also open the ROM zip on your PC before flashing and remove the file from the same directory then flash the ROM and you're good to flash the kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] namedkwon:
I have used both and I find ART on Vanir tremendously better.

Not too sure about the difference in speed but the battery is ridiculously better.

Obviously this is a personal experience but oh man... the idle time is so insane.

It used to drain ~1.5%/hr but now, it's more like 0.5%/hr.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ahoslc:
I hear you I will drain like 2-3% battery overnight is all!!
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] usmcamgrimm:
Only problem I've had with ART is that it doesn't work well with root browser or root explorer
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] mcconvict:
I haven't had any issues with root explorer on ART
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] usmcamgrimm:
It wouldn't delete files for me...let it go for over an hour. Switched back to dalvik and it deleted the same files right away
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] mcconvict:
Hmmmm...that's odd.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] btvolta:
When I try to use root explorer to delete the file, it doesn't even give me the option. I have to use file manager and have no problem.

[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] 808phoneaddict:
Just did it... I'm on art and root Explorer deletes files fine for me
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] btvolta:
My question is does root explorer let you delete the file prior to flashing? I have no problem deleting it once it is flashed and installed. File manager let's me delete it prior to flashing.

[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] brizey:
FILE DELETION:

All y'all are talking past each other.

I think btvolta is talking about deleting the init.d script out of the zip file, not just deleting a file, which is not really the same operation. Root explorer is a solid file browser, but it sucks at making manipulating zips transparently (as if they were just a regular folder). I have just been downloading to my desktop and using 7 zip (works better and faster than the Windows Explorer).

ART:

Still not sure I want to give up Xposed to try it. I am a big fan of crappalinks. But I am travelling next week and could use the better idle.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] btvolta:
Thanks buddy. You are exactly correct, that is what I was talking about. If you use File manager from the market, it does allow you the option to delete the file out of the zip. Thanks for clearing up what I was trying to say, the keyword being "zip" like you pointed out.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] -Michael_:
Latest nightly is running like a boss!
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] brizey:
And thank you for pointing out an app that works better. Going to try it on the next nightly.

Edit: are you talking about the one made by Rhythm Software?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] 808phoneaddict:
Oh yeah thanks for clearing it up... I didn't try that, totally forgot to delete the file till I was flashing it so I just had to delete the file after the initial install then flash the kernel...
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Crossoverdoc:
Same boat here. I like xposed, but it's hard to ignore the reviews ART has been getting on here.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] 808phoneaddict:
I felt the same because I used greenify a lot to calm down certain services that kept waking up my phone or using battery, but I have found some good replacement apps for that

Edit:

Oh the newest nightly has a different performance ui apparently...at least compared to the one on the 1/13 nightly... I liked seeing how many cores were online and how fast they were at the moment... This current one doesn't show as much info
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
I believe there were issues with the other performance control getting settings to stick.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] 808phoneaddict:
Ooo I c... Thanks for the info
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] 808phoneaddict:
Anyone able to setup connections to more than one wifi network? I have one saved, but can't get my phone to scan for new networks
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] brandonair95:
With chronic kernel and optimized dalvik this ROM is silky smooth. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
I love chronic kernel but its soooo rough on my battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] brandonair95:
Download a Kernel Settings app like Trickster. There's many other CPU governers u can use with Chronic.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] amosavitas:
Very true brother, but you'd be hard pressed to to get a day and a half out of a charge with five hours screen time like KT is giving me with lateralus profile, hydra script and the super conservative setting and with art enabled it's all butter.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] brandonair95:
Are you running Vanir as well? I like the KT kernel but didn't know which Profile/Script combo was the best. I'll try it out with your settings :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] amosavitas:
I'm on Commotio currently, but get the same on "stock" Vanir, give it a spin and let us know your results.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
I generally run the ktoonzs v4 profile and get a good days worth of battery with 3/4+ hours screen on and a variety of WiFi, gps, streaming music.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] usmcamgrimm:
That's the same profile I usually use, and I get a full day's worth of battery with 3+ hours of screen time.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] arcane spade:
Quick question just to make sure I'm clear:

1) were you referring to profile lateralus or lateralus v2?

2) I renamed the 00kernelcompat to /bak and still not getting settings from KTweaker to stick. Am I missing something?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] amosavitas:
As far as what settings you should use, that's obviously personal a personal preference given the nuances of individual devices and how you use your phone. That being said I am a heavy user for Internet, calls, and bluetooth streaming with no gaming and find the original lateralus profile with hydra as my script to give me an optimum balance of performance and battery life. Hopefully someone else can address settings not sticking... I haven't had that issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
I'm very unsure as to why the ktweaker settings aren't sticking for you. I haven't heard this problem yet. There are a few things you could try. First, go to the ktweaker app info and clear data and cache. Also, once you've moved/deleted/ renamed 00kernelcompat to 00kernelcompat.bak. go to recovery and then flash the kernel again. You could also try a clean install if you've been dirty for days. But I'd say the first solution will probably work.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] usmcamgrimm:
KToonsez posted the instructions for that in his thread a while back. Try looking in there for a fix.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] elliwigy:
not sure if im missin somethin but i cant call my voicemail since i cant pull up dialer pad when im in a call and my proximity sensor wont turn screen off while on call when phone is by my face.. ive checked settings and tried installing other dialers with no luck
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] brandonair95:
I've been having this problem since i got CM11 and still have it on this rom. I think it's a CM11 specific problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
I've never heard of this... There should be a button on the bottom left to bring up the number pad. As for the proximity sensor, mine works fine. Are you on a clean flash?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ahoslc:
Does Vanir still have issue with screen not coming on sometimes?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] brizey:
Yes. I still have it. It seems like it happens when I an using a browser.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Crossoverdoc:
+1. Pretty annoying. Sometimes I can get it to come on.. But it's never a sure thing. Almost ready to give up looking for a solution.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] brizey:
Bug report: turning on pocket mode under active display makes the proximity sensor turn off the screen everywhere, not just on the lock screen which is what you would expect. I'm wondering if this is the cause of some of the recently reported issues?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] sigmaxaa:
Volume rocker question

Every now and then, when I'm on the home screen, I'll go to turn the ringer up or down to vibrate silent (for example, when I go into a meeting) and nothing happens - as much I try pushing the up and down rockers, the volume just won't change. To get the rockers back working, I have to do a reboot and then they'll work again for a while (this happens at least once a day). I'm currently on the 1/26 build but this has happened on the past 2 builds I've tried (1/22 and 1/16). Anyone else run into this?

As always, thanks to everyone for their feedback/help!

YouTube playing videos for anyone? Seems like 4g won't seem to play them but on WiFi they will.

Yea it seems to be intermittent. Some will play, some won't. Some that play on WiFi won't play on 4G.

was a clean install.. when pressing the dial pad button it closes back to home screen but call is still playing
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
That's a weird one. Try a different vanir nightly. The most current 1/27 is running great!

[MENTION=4618190]ks3rv3rg[/MENTION] Do you know if there is any plan to add the option to enter to the next line in the messaging app instead of the enter button sending the message?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
Hmm... Isn't that a keyboard option?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Nydalxy:
The setting has always been in the messaging settings towards the bottom on old aosp roms I've been on. Currently the only options are enter and emoji. "Enter for a new line" is what I'm looking for.

From what i gather, different apps trigger different buttons which is why sometimes you can enter for a new line. For example, tapatalk

It was an option I always liked having because typing with big fingers, I would slip accidentally and send a message before I was done typing.

Can someone here check to see if it sends or enters to a new line in their MMS.apk with the keyboard they are using? I guess my keyboard could be the reason if everyone else isn't having any problems
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] asf1187:
for some reason the performance control won't open for me. it just freezes but no fc

Screen time
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] bkrickles:
Just an fyi:

According to google+ page there seems to be a problem with clean installs of both vanir and commotio nightly's over the past 2 days. Apparently you get an error that reads "Unfortuantely, Setup WIzard has stopped" during setup.

I haven't tried so I can't confirm this issue. Supposedly you can get around it by flashing rom and booting without gapps install and then go back into recovery and flash gapps.

Dirty flashes, supposedly, do not have this problem.

Again, I haven't attempted this and I'm just forwarding what I read.

A fix is being worked on as per Derek Hunter.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] jamesiaustin:
Does anybody else have a problem with YouTube videos loading?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] -Michael_:
Last week's build I did. The latest nightly on a clean flash is playing HD video from YouTube fine however.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
I've been having intermittent issues with certain videos not loading on 4G.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
Have you been dirty flashing? The performance control is new and could be screwed up if you have residual settings. You can also try clearing app data in app info of performance control app.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
Its because they've been attempting to make certain merges compatible with setup wizard. Didn't work apparently...
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Crossoverdoc:
Can anyone confirm this if they've clean flashed to the latest nightly?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] bkrickles:
It'll be fixed in next nightly as per their Google + page
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Efrenjr15:
Anyone able to run ART on latest nightly 1-30?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] bkrickles:
I don't have time to check now, but I think I read about an issue w/art on the most recent nightlys on vanir's google+ page. Check it out and get back to us if you have time.

Can anyone verify everything is working on 1/31 build?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Crossoverdoc:
I'm gonna flash tonight after work and I'll let you know. This thread has been rather quiet the past few days.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
I always hope that means people aren't having issues. :P
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] 808phoneaddict:
I only post in these forums if I'm having issues or if I can help others with issues... I'm still on an older nightly (1/25) and it's been running good so I haven't updated in awhile...
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Tortuga:
Same here. I'm on 1/17 and it's solid! May jump up to a newer version, but almost scared to screw up an amazing setup.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ahoslc:
Is vanir aware of the issues with stock kernel and not waking from some times? If so do they have any idea what it is?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] brizey:
Not sure it's the stock kernel. I have been trying the stock kernel vs the latest KT, and I think I am having less issues. I have not had any of the "dark screen, keys lit" freezes that I occasionally had with KT. But I never could isolate what triggered those so maybe I have just been lucky. Don't forget that the stock kernel is based on KT.

Edit: just read the change log for KT 1-31 and some of that stuff sounds like it may be fixes for the issues I was having... I suspected they are GPU related. Going to try it.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] 808phoneaddict:
Everything else is running Ok? How is ART running?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] usmcamgrimm:
Clean flashed 1/31 last night. Running good, just seemed to take a while to get settled in.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Crossoverdoc:
Running 1-31 on the stock kernel. It's been very smooth once I got it all set up. TiBu seems to take a while to restore everything lately.. but that's not the Roms fault. Loving Vanir as usual!
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] brizey:
I don't use art... just tried it a few times. I feel like optimized Dalvik gives you the performance without the headaches. I always eventually ran into some kind of issue with art with some app.

But I have been using 1-31 for this and KT all day with zero issues, but pretty light use.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] bkrickles:
I've been running art on vanir for awhile now and it's been great.

Up until yesterdays nightly there had been a couple of hacked apps that wouldn't install or were inoperable, but as of yesterdays build (and today's) these couple of apps work fine.

I have no idea why, but I'm happy about it.

I have art running and I'm on kt kernel and all is good with the world.

I'd check it out, I think it's superior to davlik
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] 808phoneaddict:
Yeah I did a clean install this morning and been running the latest nightly with kt and ART and it's been running pretty well so far....
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Triscuit:
This is amazing news, I might have to try it. I have a modded YouTube app that I don't like living without, which wouldn't work with ART. I'm gonna flash the 2/01 build and fire up ART and see if it works! Thanks for the info bkrickles.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] mrbigdrawsz:
Getting very inconsistent notifications from multiple apps. Won't get any for awhile then they flood in all at once. This seems to be happening regularly with all apps I've seen so far.

Also, is there a way to turn off the automatic screen on when notifications do arrive?

Great Rom...No issues I've seen other than what I mentioned above. Appreciate the work Dev's.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ks3rv3rg:
I was running ART for at least a week straight and it was really nice. I did decide now however to just go with the ROM as it is. I'm stoked! I'll tell ya, in reality the davlik in vanir is also "optimized" but by the vanir team. So there's no need really to flash the optimized anymore. To each their own of course, just saying.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] bkrickles:
Hope that works for you. I have a hacked chomp that is my sms app of choice and all of a sudden it works after not working on this or any other ROM using art

Love the ROM devs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In the last 2 weeks I have gone on a flashing frenzy. Flashed every 4.4.2 ROM available here on XDA. I constantly come back to Vanir. I love the additional options on top of the basic AOSP. Has every feature that I would add if I had dev'd the ROM myself.

Thanks for all your hard work on this ROM...kick ass job!!!! :cool:
