Not sure but the worst that can happen is it bootloops. Then you just get back into recovery using the button method and reflash the rom to use the kernel that comes with the rom. If it does work I Would love for you to report back in thread to let everyone know. Thanks!
[G2 Android Development] Matze060906:
Me too since 2 days... [emoji4]
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
What do you think? I remember you was going to compare with stock and I was curious how that came out. I like R3VEN's work.
[G2 Android Development] Matze060906:
On the previous build the kernel from rev3nt3ch had a better battery life with optimax / zen combination than your r21. Now I'm on latest build and I want test a few settings with synapse on your kernel. With r21 with stock settings the battery life isn't better than rev3nt3chs kernel. I have 4 hours sot and with blackbird kernel I have 5 hours sot. That's why I asked for optimax governer in your next build. Hope you will implement it... [emoji4]

PA is considered AOSP or CM based? Can't remember properly

Inviato dal mio LG-D802 utilizzando Tapatalk
[G2 Android Development] Raagh:
Pa is considered pa.

They have used a different method to update the rom to full kk sources. This means this kernel wont work
[G2 Android Development] blacklight1025:
I use PA and the kernel works fine. It depends on which kernel sources the ROM is built with that decides which type of kernel your phone can use.
[G2 Android Development] Raagh:
Sttange. Sorry to disagree but with the g2 what makes the difference is how they updated their sources.

Most roms here use dr87 method( mahdi liquid alegen aicp)

Pa used to have their own method( houstonn method), guess not anymore if you re using it

Jackpot calvings cm ( their own method)

And cm11 still use 4.2 jellybean sources.

Thats why we have an aosp kernel and a cm kernel.not because the rom is cm. But because how they update their sources. For example alegenmod temasek unofficial its clearly based off cm11, but its been updated using dr87 method. So you use aosp kernels, not cm. Also vanir its based off cm, but uses aosp kernels.
[G2 Android Development] blacklight1025:
Yea, I know, I wasn't clear in my response. I was jus saying, most of the recent PA builds I've been using have used dr87 or another AOSP compatible method. So it could work for him depending on which PA ROM he's using.

[MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION] as always...thanks for your support...great dev and great friend....to be honest i like render kernel too and i highly respect it....ours are different beasts built with different ideas.....as well as all others as well....keep up the awesome work bud and all others
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
THANKS! But, you better get ready! I am about to begin work on R22 and it will give you a run for the money! lol
[G2 Android Development] hovanhuang:
For some reason, i am getting SOD once everyday. Sorry didn't have the log. What i can notice is that sod happens when i am driving. Maybe have something to do with bluetooth since the phone was connecting to my cars bluetooth? At least i can confirm 3 times like that. Can't think of other reasons. So weird.

D800 mahdi 9/20 built, default kernel setting. Switch back to mahdi S3 patch then no sod for two days. waitting for r22.
[G2 Android Development] goast:
Don't need log need u to go to proc folder and pull last.ksmg file
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Not sure man, I have the same model and use Bluetooth headphones constantly (Music, audiobooks) and I have not had a single issue. It sounds like Retention may be enabled. Just double check that you are using the stock settings for me and let me know.
[G2 Android Development] hovanhuang:
Thx. Where is the retention option?
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
[MENTION=2640432]hovanhuang[/MENTION] You would need to be using Synapse to enable it. What do you normally use for making changes to kernel settings?
[G2 Android Development] hovanhuang:
Synapse as you suggest.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Can you make sure it is unchecked? It will be under the "ADV" tab. It is the second option down. Make sure its unchecked.
[G2 Android Development] hovanhuang:
C2 is uncheck default. I will try uncheck the c3, power collapse to see if it makes different. Thx.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
HMM really weird. Something else must be the problem. I wouldn't worry about unchecking C3 since I know that's not it. But since others are not having the same problem that means something else like an APP or some other change must be the cause. Try to get a log with Syslog after it happens.

In other news I have starts work on R22 and if you wanted to keep up with whats being added in then look here:

https://github.com/RenderBroken/msm8974_G2_render_kernel/commits/kk-rebuild

So far, I have re-enabled Optimax by request, CleanCache (TESTING), Updated sound control to 3.5 ( I know some of you will be excited about that), Lowered Temp Thresholds (They were way too high thus running hotter than I like), and Updated to Linux 3.4.104! There are way more to come. I have been kinda bookmarking changes/commits that I have been wanting to add in the past two weeks. Also this build will be a bit different than the others. I will be releasing a variant of R22 with Over Clocking enabled. NOTE: I will not be building an OC Version EVERY time I release a new build. But I don't know that some of you guys want to Overclock so I want to give you the option to do so but also keep in mind that I am not obligated to do so. Also I will be enabling Underclocking as well. Once again, Underclocking will be back in the mainline kernel. OC will not be.
[G2 Android Development] Matze060906:
[MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION]: Optimax? That is great, can't wait for release. Now we all have 2 great kernels for aosp roms: blackbird and yours. It's hard to choose one of them.
[G2 Android Development] abby_nitewolf:
Hello, does this kernel contain the cd-rom patch in order to use this?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=39293985
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Not sure but I am sure I can check and add it if not.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Hey, I am adding support for this but need someone to test it in the next build, would you be able to do that for me?
[G2 Android Development] abby_nitewolf:
Yes i can test it out. And thank you. I really appreciate it.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
So I know what it does, but what do you use it for? Like what scenario?
[G2 Android Development] abby_nitewolf:
I will mainly use it for booting up rescue systems such as Parted Magic and Ubuntu from my phone. Just like burning it into a recovery disc or using bootable usb drive.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
So in Theory I should be able to use this to boot Hiren's Boot CD (Ultimate Boot CD)? That would be pretty nice. The new build is coming along nicely. Added more Governors, TCP Options, and I have been doing a crazy amount of work on Synapse to have it natively in the Ramdisk.
[G2 Android Development] abby_nitewolf:
In theory, yes :) Ran into this awesome app while randomly scrolling through apps and games section.
[G2 Android Development] jabbarh123:
does this kernel not support oc'ing ? I think all kernels should support this to be honest
[G2 Android Development] Raagh:
Its a matter of safety in my opinion. To support oc on a phone that already has heating issues that can cause screen damage is dangerous. In my opinion its not worthy
[G2 Android Development] nfin1te:
First of all, you didn't even bother to read the page before this one, where [MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION] states, that oc will be enabled again for one build.

Second, who are you to demand something from a dev. Asking is fine, but don't put pressure on the dev using vocabulary like "i think", "to be honest", etc.

This is just disrespectful in every possible way, AT LEAST take the time and read a few pages back or try searching the thread. :rolleyes:

And yes, I agree with [MENTION=5306314]Raagh[/MENTION]

It's a f'cking quad core with 2gb ram, what do you do with your phone that absolutely NEEDS overclocking? Crunching Pi?

We flew to the moon with Intel 386er cpus.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Just wanted to give an update. I will be working to finish R22 today and hope to have builds out today as well. Some interesting changes in the new build. Alot of optimization, alot of logging mechanisms disabled that are really not needed, and alot of fun added in as well. I had even added the "new" Bacon Governor which is really just a tuned Interactive governor. Sound Control has been updated to 3.5. Also you will be able to make all the sound control changes with Synapse (Free) and you don't need to by Faux Sound. But I have not bought it before so I would love for someone to compare the two. You can do so with R21 and Synapse. If there are functions missing, let me know and I may be able to code/add them into Synapse which is one reason I am sticking with this program. After R22, I will be asking the community to come up with different profiles for use with Synapse, because I can have you export them and then I can add them into the official Kernel build for other users to enjoy. Be it Battery savings or performance.

Kind Regards,

Zachariah

That is so awesome. Too bad I have the 16GB model... Darn, wish the first G2 (32GB) I had had warranty :(
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
I did not know they had 16GB versions.
[G2 Android Development] Matze060906:
Mine has 16gb too. It's enough for me... [emoji4]
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Not for me, with all my music and audiobooks. lol
[G2 Android Development] Formhault:
16GB should not be a standard anymore. Especially now that flash memory is extremely cheap. Don't get me started on th... too late.

Manufacturers that make flash memory are like mobile carriers : "Oh, you know, SMS is expensive... Especially when you're outside the country... Oh boy, it sure requires one gigawatt of power for the cell tower to deliver that 16-bit message across the globe."

Remember when the Note 3 was launched? They touted that the 32GB model would be the base model... then they introduced the 16GB model and raised the price for the 32GB model... Woah, if an extra of 16GB costs ~$40, then I should sell my sh*tty SSD and buy a house or something.

Same for me. I can always plug in a microSD card reader and add an extra 16GB... I just need to find one of those tiny little readers that plug in directly via microUSB - and for cheap, of course. :silly:

But I sure miss the initial G2 I had. Now I can't carry that 5GB movie-that-I-never-watched-but-you-may-never-know on my phone anywhere I go. :eek:

This emoji thing has to stop. XDA doesn't support them - they only show up on your phone, if it has them.

[G2 Android Development] 1ceb0x:
Come on guys, don't spam this thread with useless OT. If it is related to development, Roms, kernel settings, that's OK. But this kind of OT is useless and it does not add nothing to the table.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Sorry, I was not able to put in the time like I hoped. I am having to kinda redo/code the backend for Synapse so it can remain in my ramdisk rather than an extra piece to be added when flashing the rom. This way clean up is easier and its easier to add in new features. Pretty much anything you can think of can be added to Synapse. It is essentially Trickster mod that a Dev can retroactively add support for a new feature without having to wait for the Dev of Trickstermod to code and add to the APK of Trickster himself. I can code the backend and Synapse just reads that code to dynamically generate the UI. This is why it will be a major part of this kernel and why I am working so hard to integrate it as cleanly as possible! I have pretty much finished all the new changes for R22 so once I am done coding synapse then I will release. I will also do a few last minute changes to the kernel before release if I see something else worth adding in or changing.
[G2 Android Development] bleached45:
As long as render is OK with it, a little OT helps with community building IMO, the G2 forums are rather nice compared to a few others.

As a trickster mod user, I just started using synapse a day or 2 ago with your kernel, it is very nice. I love that it is friendly for the kernel developer. Great news. Take your time. You have a real life of course. And you always but out nice releases, it shows how much time you put into this kernel, I mean, look how many rebases you did. But you kept trying. And you have the health of the device in mind too (not putting OC in every build just because you can, making sure thermal is set correctly, and you still listen to users). We can wait.

Also, I have faux sound as well, so I can let you know if anything doesn't show up in there. For now power amp isn't supported by synapse but it doesn't work in faux sound because the older driver doesn't like our phone.
[G2 Android Development] pjgraber03:
cm based?

Is there anyway u are able to make a cm based kernel?
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Oh there is a way . . . I would love to in the near future. First I have a few goals I would like to personally reach.

Sound fixup (Done but would like to check)

Synapse worked out (Very Close to done)

Subsystem checkover (Just to make sure there is nothing nefarious that could rob performance/battery)

Defconfig Optimization (Loads of loggers disabled, etc)

All of which I would like to have done for R23

Also I want to try building for stock before CM. I have been working on the needed files to build for stock for awhile now and just need to start building. But I am worried about the outcome. My kernel is Streamlined for AOSP and I am not sure what issues may come up from building for stock but we will see. I am sure some of you would love to test ;) But don't worry, any issue that will occur will not harm the phone in any way, I am more talking about the differences between the phone variants and using the source from a single phone (D802) for all of them. So we will see. If it doesn't work the way I like then I will scrap it and move onto building for CM. The problem I will have with CM is the Device Tree is completely different and my commits will not merge cleanly so I have alot of merge work ahead of me. No one like merge work . . .lol
[G2 Android Development] pjgraber03:
Nope merge work is the worst.... Try building a ROM it's a lot if crap... if u would ever be interested in combining with a team and having your kernel as a featured kernel let me know I have a team of some good guys and girl lol we have 2 ROMs ATM one aosp and one cm.... just a thought
[G2 Android Development] pjgraber03:
Hey just wanted to let u know... I'm running a cm based rom ATM so I missed your kernel so I tried flashing anyways..... And BOOM it booted so I'm super stoked... Just thought u night want to know that it does boot with a cm rom

I know this is stated in the first post, but some people writes that this kernel works fine with official cm 11 . Anyone?
[G2 Android Development] Maritus1:
But I wouldn't try it since this kernel is build on 4.4., while CM is still build on 4.2 sources.
[G2 Android Development] jabbarh123:
:eek: how rude! I only asked, and maybe put in an enquiry, no need to be so harsh and swear :( real senior member you are lmao!
[G2 Android Development] nfin1te:
Obviously, you didn't get the point. Follow the forum rules and don't tell developers what they should do, and everyone will be very kind to you around here.

People are in general really helpful on xda, but not if you don't even try to obtain the information you seek by yourself (as stated in my post).

For the next time, search the thread using the search function and if you don't find what you're looking for, you're more than welcome to ask here.

It's really not the first time this happens here, far from it even. Image how users feel, who use the forum correctly, having to read the same posts over and over again, despite the fact that the initial question has been answered several times already - and cluttering threads, making it even harder to find information in a thread with f.e. 800+ pages.

And if you do ask a question, use something like "hey, I really enjoy your kernel, but I figured, would it be possible to add xxx? Thanks for your work!" and all will be good. :)

Anyways, no OT beyond this line anymore :)

No, it doesn't work with official CM11 (it's based on 4.2).

There's a high chance it might work with the custom 4.4-based CM roms floating around here on xda - but you'll have to try it for yourself.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Sure, that would be cool!

Actually Rom building was how I started. I had the ATT version of the S2 called the i777. The International S2 (i9100) had some unofficial CM11 when the source first started rolling out and I really wanted to run KK on my old phone since in theory it should run better than 4.3 JB. At this point I had not done any building/compiling but I was familiar with Linux since I had to setup a Thin Client Environment to re-purpose old computers and run windows 7 on them. The Windows 7 OS was actually a virtual machine hosted in the cloud 0so the boxes would bootup and RDP into the cloud but it was all seamless. So I thought I could try my hand at getting CM11 to work on our phones. I was successful and re-awakened development for the i777 since it was pretty dead. I took the same approach then as I do know. I talked about the process and motivated others to try building. Well the hardest part was getting the kernel updated to work with CM11. I soon realized that I enjoyed kernel work more and thus began Render Kernel (Since I couldn't come up with a cool name . . .)

I lawled really hard.
[G2 Android Development] pjgraber03:
Yes in currently running this kernel with my cm based rom
[G2 Android Development] 1Nexus:
Your CM based rom is probably actually based on dr87's KK sources.

[MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION]

This kernel has been quite good for me. Fantastic battery life and smoothness - but I have one issue: Google Chrome some times acts up when using this kernel. The screen becomes unresponsive and the only way to get it working again is by locking and unlocking the phone, quickly going out of Chrome, closing it from the recents panel and reopening it. This issue does not occur with other kernels. I tried stock settings without luck. Can I do anything to help resolve this issue?
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
You sound like you have put time into testing and trying different things out to alleviate your problem and that is appreciated. I use chrome constantly due to work and have not had a single issue. Also if it were the kernel itself then I think we would have more reports of such. But something is definitely going on. Are you using art or any other 3rd party tool? It may be related to my kernel. I don't know for certain but maybe we can see what can be done.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
You guys have been waiting patiently and its always appreciated! Especially not getting questions for ETAs all the time. So I know I have said I am really close to release. Here is what i have left to do. I am working on real DT2W support along with Pocket Mode detection. This way as long as the proximity sensor is covered, you cannot activate DT2W. Lastly I am finishing up my Synapse/Ramdisk work. This way it is added in natively which makes updating and adding way cleaner in the future. Also made some changes and additions ;) to Synapse. This is where we are at. I plan on doing a little work tonight then hitting it hard to build tomorrow. Also know that I have been using personal test builds of R22 and I love what I am getting as far as battery and performance goes. This way I also know that its completely stable before releasing.
[G2 Android Development] bleached45:
This is awesome. I love DT2W and would never turn it off. But I have a quick window case and when walking sometimes the media controls on the lock screen get pressed in my pocket (seems the fabric is thin). Hate having music pause and play with every step. Thank you very much.
