All builds are up. time for bed now. lol I chose releasing R10 over killing Zombies in Dying light. You should feel honored lmao. Let me know what yall think!
[G2 Android Development] bamonkey:
Huzzah! Ballistics is exactly what i got! didnt know about the 5ft drop protection..which is fine because the device falling out of my pocket is what has broke the previous 2. So onto R10 since i flashed it what... 5 minutes ago :p

All the thrills of r9 still here, currently changed cpu0 and cpu1 to impulse for testing.. So far i like how they "feel". cant comment on battery and wont for at least a day of use. will probably drop my voltage down -25 BUT..since this is a new device for me the general rule for our g2's is "everyones can vary" so im keeping this in mind. No microstutter so far using play store and chrome *which tend to tax buffering quite a bit*. Sound is set how i like it with ViperFX// Headphones 5 , Speaker 5, Headphone PowerAmp 2//. Lastly feels like a placebo...not sure.. but my doubletap to wakeup seems improved very slightly. These are my initial settings and reactions.

TL;DR another great release Render! No issues so far will continue using my device tonight and see if anything pops up.

Somehow there is a problem in the download website. I tried several times but always not successful. Any similar experience? Mirror link doesn't have R10 yet.
[G2 Android Development] schwem:
I had same problem but once I was given option of how to dowbload instead of choosing chrome how I normally download I chose es file downloader and it downloaded fine. It will work if you have es file explorer installed. Only thing that worries me is the zip size doesn't match what is posted on his server but I flashed it anyway and it works well

Y'all having problems using the aosp browser?
[G2 Android Development] Maritus1:
Hi Render,

are there any plans on releasing an update for Kitkat? I just don't want to upgrade to Lollipop. KK works like a charm for me, so I stick with KK till LP is all stable and all known features are implemented.

Thanks for your hard work!
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
I would like to release something tomorrow. That's what I am shooting for at least.
[G2 Android Development] de.er:
I can't download using AOSP, nor Delphin. I'm usually downloading the file on my pc and send it to phone.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Same here. But good to know. I will take a look to see what we can do to make it more compatible. Thanks guys for your reports! I will add them to my Google Drive Mirror for the time being.
[G2 Android Development] wulsic:
Thanks Render. I can't believe that you sacrificed the time that you could play dyinglight.

on how much % of the storyline are you now？I had to redo the progress when I was around 30% and now I am at something like 45%.

Render we will kick the zombies off the building and edges.

if somebody is not happy with this well sorry for being off topic.

I wonder when all roms will stop using loki and use 4.4 source and bump.
[G2 Android Development] berryman13:
Save as if on computer, add the link to adm from android
[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
Guys, is Synapse open source? I'm willing to materialize this app and contribute back to the original devs, but I can't find anywhere. Also wanted to add overlaying support for theming this app, it looks much KK and it's the best for Kernel tweaking.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Its all good. A bit of OT doesn't hurt every now and then. Besides I like to think of this as a thread of friends, people that I could BS with. Not sure what percentage I am at. I am having fun though ;)

There are still some things in the source that have to be worked out for Bump to work. Also when LG releases LP, Bump may no longer work when they change the bootloader. So we will have to play it by ear.

I have talked to [MENTION=5141006]MrDarkKV[/MENTION] about the issue and we are looking into it. I have since uploaded the builds to my Drive mirror.

https://github.com/AndreiLux/Synapse

I would LOVE LOVE LOVE for you to theme this app. I am not sure about licensing but the source is all there. Still there should not be any issue if you decide to change the theme and would love to have a custom Synapse for Render Kernel! You have my hangouts. Lets do this!
[G2 Android Development] Vollspacken:
Anybody got worse battery drain with r9 than on r7 with f2fs enabled (on D802)? Phone drains like 1% every 2-3min while using, was used to be like 5-6min before. I'm using same settings like in r7... I'm using it for one or two more days, if it doesn't change i have to go back to r7. Doesn't let me use my phone without worries when knowing that there's a better battery life that sometimes saved me from frustrated evenings :p

BTW: achieving lowest CPU and battery temperatures while using (mostly 35-40°C CPU, 30°C battery) :good:
[G2 Android Development] LooseSeal:
[MENTION=5558742]Vollspacken[/MENTION] Try r10. Battery life seems to be back to normal. I'm at a little over 2 hours of screen time at 80%.
[G2 Android Development] bleached45:
R7 was VERY conservative compared to 9 or 10. But your drain sounds high. I've had mine off the charger for about a half hour now and am at 100% (with very light usage). Maybe look into wakelocks or app usage. I don't think it is kernel drain.
[G2 Android Development] Vollspacken:
I had mine off the charger, after some regular using i hit 98% with only 20min SOT. Normal was 99% with 30min SOT for me. Will go back to r7 tomorrow and try it again.

What settings are you guys using?
[G2 Android Development] fix-this!:
Been testing r10 today. Battery life isnt as good as r9 and im seeing alot more stutter on darkobas.
[G2 Android Development] hotrodwinston:
Vs980 r10 impulse gov nowhere to be found?
[G2 Android Development] -JFK-:
There is now many gov available.

Try to slide up or down the list.

I'm on R10 with Impulse gov;)
[G2 Android Development] carlospaco:
Hy, can i use this kernel on the ROM from resuction remix 5.3.3.

And wich version is the best for battery. Thanks and greetings
[G2 Android Development] schwem:
VS980, R10. I also do not see any new govs. I wonder why.
[G2 Android Development] Y. Heavenslaughter:
You can ;)

I'm on the RR 5.3.4 with the R9 kernel version and with some settings adjustments using Synapse (dwnl from the playstore) i've a very good battery life : screen-on between 5h30 and 5h45, luminosity at 50 % (LG D802 variant)
[G2 Android Development] carlospaco:
Ok thanks, i wil give it a try.

But what settings to you have adjust in synapse? In that i am a noob, its to complicated for me. Sorry

Greetz and thanks for the replay
[G2 Android Development] berryman13:
Correction...impulse is the only new gov.

Having issues with synapse sticking at all. Every time i start the app, I can apply the settings implying they didn't apply?

---------- Post added at 09:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 AM ----------

Don't follow that silly advice. Render r10 is better than r9
[G2 Android Development] carlospaco:
OK , but do i need to adjust somrthing, or is this kernel ready ?

Thanks
[G2 Android Development] rmsinaga:
The latest revision is always the most up to date or improved kernel.

Battery friendly or performance oriented settings depends on your own setting, that's the reason why Synapse is recommended to be used for tweaking.

For beginner, start with changing the CPU Governor or I/O scheduler type only, without changing the parameters in it. Observe the behavior for 2-3 days then you can decide whether this is according to your liking. My honey can be a poison for you, but this is the fun of Android, we can customize anything to suit our preference :victory:
[G2 Android Development] carlospaco:
Ok i have download it and will flash it in recovery with TWRP.

Thanks

---------- Post added at 10:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 AM ----------

but there is not a version R10 for d820, latest is R9, is that correct?
[G2 Android Development] Donjuan1984:
I think the r10 is misplaced on the list. Isn't it on top?
[G2 Android Development] Faakarna:
Oh my god render. This kernel just rocks. (R10). On RR this is the ultimate combo. Great battery life and on stock settings, this one kicks ass.
[G2 Android Development] luv2increase:
People are complaining about my voice still on r9 and r10 on vs980. They say it sounds very muffled and can't understand me very well. I had to go back to ravens kernel and all is well..
[G2 Android Development] Y. Heavenslaughter:
Totaly agree with you, that depends what you need, my settings are good for battery life but with underclock and there's lags on some hard games.

[MENTION=2107765]carlospaco[/MENTION] : to begin, you can change the CPU Gouvernor to ONDEMAND and the I/O Scheduler to ROW or NOOP (test the both), that limits the battery drain. If you want more, you can set the CPU Max Frequency to 1958 MHz for all cores but you will lose performances, you can even set the core to 1728 MHz but don't underclock more, your device will not like that and you will have too much lags and force reboots...

Test yourself to find your own config.

If you're not an usual kernel user, you can find some explains about the tweaks on the web like here : http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/general/ref-kernel-governors-modules-o-t1369817

(sorry for my bad english, hope that you understand the essential ;) )
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Maybe somehow the Defconfig didn't get updated properly. That's the issue with juggling 7 Defconfig files. I will rebuild and re-release r10 for you.

False. You are having a false positive. The Sound Control Driver I use will lock when sound is playing it it causes certain sliders to move when sound is of making Synapse believe that you have to re-apply settings. Also same with Fast Charge Control. When enabled, if you unplug the phone from something, it will automatically disable itself. Once you plug it back in, it will enable itself.

So with the two you get false positive. I will note these in OP. Thanks!

Can anyone else confirm? It seems that its only VS980 users that ever have a problem. Thanks for the report!
[G2 Android Development] Y. Heavenslaughter:
No sound problem for me on D802 (R9)
[G2 Android Development] schwem:
You never disappoint mr [MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION]. Thanks for all your support. Chances are I will only use your interactive gov anyway since it's the one you yourself fine tunes the most but the option to change is always a good feeling.
[G2 Android Development] :
I don't take too many phone calls, though the few I have had the people did complain that it was pretty quiet... But I'm also fairly soft spoken.

Using elixir2 with the microphone running, it registers background noise around 40db and my voice around 80. I also tested with sound recorder and I sounded fine albeit a bit quiet since I had to turn my media volume all the way up to hear myself decently.

I don't know if this is really an issue that couldn't be fixed just by tweaking the audio config.

It could be possible that since the vs980 is slightly different because of the wireless charging that perhaps our mic had slightly more impedence and needs a little more gain than the other variants.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Very informative! I do know what I can add arguments(If/Else statements) to Sound Control to adjust for the VS980. I assume It is just mic volume that needs to be adjusted. Thanks!
[G2 Android Development] chrisexv6:
Maybe we should have someone on the other variants do the same test?
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
It wouldn't hurt but Im pretty active with this thread and I can tell you that 95% of the ppl that complain of this are VS980 users. I have from time to time had D802 users complain of something similar. Though after changing the settings in Sound Control driver these reports have drastically declined. I have reached out to some other Devs that may be able to assist. Thanks.
[G2 Android Development] :
I'm guessing that he meant to see what db levels other variants show. Though, it would be simple enough for you to do on your own device as a cross reference point, so that the thread doesn't de-rail into 50 pages of vs980 users posting their results. :p
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
lol I will be testing as soon as I get home.

I do have one question. What are your default settings in Synapse for the Sound Tab? Can you re-flash the kernel and see what shows for each slider? Thanks!
[G2 Android Development] :
I'll have to reflash to tell you for sure. Unfortunately, I'm partially through a rom download at slow speed. So it may be a bit.

My testing was skewed though. It runs using the camcorder slider when not in a call, I can see this actively change my sound levels while testing. I'm going to find an automated line to call, or try calling my wife's phone when she gets back and see if I can get you numbers while my phone is in an active call, so that it gives the proper numbers, if it will allow me to.

I may need to record the call and analyze the sound files to get levels.

Sorry for the previous misinformation.

Edit

Alright, so I'm not sure how to get useful information for this. Even when in a call, I can't get reading changes based on the handset volume slider in Synapse.

Talking on my phone to my wife's stock galaxy 5, I sound perfectly fine to myself for what that's worth, but noticed no change from the Synapse slider.
[G2 Android Development] fix-this!:
I heard the sound issues were related to cm12 not the kernel. But yes both my g2's d800 suffer from a echo on calls.
[G2 Android Development] luv2increase:
It is kernel. Blackbird kernel sounds great.
[G2 Android Development] fix-this!:
I still had the echo on his kernel.
[G2 Android Development] TDSJR:
Don't listen to him. He's pissed because RenderBroken won't listen to him anymore.

If I'm not mistaken, default mic is set to like 15, turn it down to about 5, and see what happens.
[G2 Android Development] luv2increase:
I'm not the only one bud.
[G2 Android Development] jesssiii:
I'm back on R7, but I also saw no impulse governor on 10.

VZW LG G2
[G2 Android Development] fLipz:
D802 here. AiCP-8.0.Release plus Render R10

with Trickster and Kernel Tuner i can see the impulse governor
[G2 Android Development] -JFK-:
I confirm.

Impulse is there!
[G2 Android Development] schwem:
Call echo is also present for me on R10. It's better if I turn mic gain down to 5 or 7 but still persists. I flashed latest blackbird kernel and issue is non existent for me on latest. Not sure the issue and intend on using renders when issue is resolved
[G2 Android Development] TDSJR:
I have my mic set to 2, with no complaints, I also have headset gain set to 3. I am using FauxSound app, for refining telephone quality. Been using this configuration, across all ROMs, without issue.
[G2 Android Development] fix-this!:
this isn't mean to offend anyone but in the 7 years ive run android and flashed roms & kernels ive never seen soo many issues with settings sticking or cpu tweaking apps not working. maybe its time to go back

to the drawing board and just put out a minimal kernel at lg stock settings and let the user tweak what they want. its not just renders, blackbird has similar issues. just my 2 cents.
[G2 Android Development] TDSJR:
I have used Synapse, since it was included in Renders kernel, and I have not had one issue, in regards to settings sticking. If you don't mind, what settings aren't sticking?
[G2 Android Development] schwem:
Well maybe I'll try turning it down a couple more notches then. I just don't want it to get to the point where noone can hear me. At 5 on mic gain and 5 on headset gain it's slightly echoing and the users say it sounds as if I'm 4 or 5 feet from the mic. I'm worried if I go down anymore I'll get a bunch of what's and huh's on the opposing end of the convo. Also my wife wont let me spend 5 bucks on what she calls stupid apps for my little toy so looks like Im staying with synapse unless fauxclock runs a crazy discount soon
[G2 Android Development] -JFK-:
That's very strange...

I'm also using Synapse since I have switch on Render and have no sticking problem.

And use my phone for my job without any echo problem... (I have ask many peoples if the sound is good and all say yes.)

So (for me) the real question is "what have you done different than us on your phone, that can cause thoses problems ?"

The base band that I use is in my signature if that can help...
[G2 Android Development] Cinderella17:
Hello, I try to use this kernel with optimus G3 (D800) but after I install and reboot never the LG logo... is not compatible? Thanks
[G2 Android Development] Angelo37:
This is for AOSP ROMs xD [MENTION=2242423]Cinderella17[/MENTION]
[G2 Android Development] -JFK-:
Hello,

First line of the OP...

"RenderBroken's Custom Kernel for

AOSP Based Roms

!"

Optimus G3 is Stock based ROM...
[G2 Android Development] schwem:
I haven't done anything personally. Im on 12b stock unmodified baseband found here on xda G2 modem thread. Also I use Renders kernel out of the box stock. I change nothing except mic gain and headset gain when trying to pinpoint echo issue. I don't change cpu's or govs. I have never ever messed with mixer path's in my phone. I am simply running blisspop nightly 02/11 with Render R10 with no mods to anything. So with that said. It cannot be something I've dobe as it works fine with blackbird and earlier blisspop releases pre render R9
[G2 Android Development] fix-this!:
Read my past posts among other who have issues. Im suspecting its either a lollipop issue or the fact the cpu tweaking apps need to be updated. Look at synapse for example, hasnt been updated since july 2014. Well before 5.0 was released. As a test im going to try to complie my own custom kernel this weekend to test.
[G2 Android Development] TDSJR:
Not to be argumentative but, how do you explain all of the users who are NOT having issues? Perhaps, the settings that aren't sticking are due to another issue, such as conflicting built-in tweaking tools or incompatible/conflicting settings. Not to say that either relate to you, just trying to dispel a sweeping generalization.
[G2 Android Development] JRJ442:
You sounded kind of smart there. Kind of.
[G2 Android Development] heleos:
It's vs980 that does not have impulse governor, I'm assuming you guys don't have that variant

Edit: screenshot or it didn't happen!

edit again: looks like the 802 has a lot more governors than us
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
I have something I am going to test out to fix this issue. I do believe the ECHO is a result of messing with the mic settings for Sound Control. I am not sure what levels do it though. But if the headset gain is high enough that the Mic pics its up, there will definitely be an ECHO. More testing is needed and I will be doing some testing myself. Thanks for providing concise information. It is appreciated!

I imagine that it is both actually. Many things have changed with LP thats for sure. But let me know if I can help you get your kernel compiled!

This is a non issue at this point, yes some of yall are missing governor/s and I will remedy this sometime today with R10.5 for yall. Thanks!
[G2 Android Development] JRJ442:
VS980 here too, now I feel like I'm missing out ?
[G2 Android Development] heleos:
I don't feel like I'm missing out, bacon is the best food ever, so the governor must be the best governor ever [emoji14]
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
You only have yourself to blame. . . I was like, what phone is JRJ442 using? Oh the VS980! Well lets punish ALL VS980 users! MWahahahah

I should have a fix soon!
[G2 Android Development] :
I'm not sure if this helps or not.... But Synapse was being a huge pain for me for a few reasons until I figured out what was happening.

1. Synapse will reset is settings every flash. It would be nice if it kept them based on the Kernels books fingerprint one it considered them stable.

2. A dirty reboot will reset your settings. I hate using the power button so I have a reboot widget that I used... The problem was that everyone I used this widget to reboot, Synapse detected it as a dirty shutdown and wouldn't apply settings.

3. I believe you've mentioned this before, but when changing settings for audio through another app, it gives a false settings applied error.

4. Sometimes it will also give the 2 reboot error and reset if you reboot the phone before it's been booted into the rom for 2 minutes.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
These are great observations and I plan on making these clearer in OP. But I didnt know about the reboot widget. That is a good find. I will add this info in OP and give you credit for putting them together. Thanks again!
[G2 Android Development] :
No problem, glad to hlep where I can. Though not everything is always helpful.

Though reading back through that on a computer now... There's ALOT of typos... I typed it up while eating lunch from my phone... damned autocorrect....

I'm not sure if it would be possible to correct a few of these issues in synapses's code. I know the original dev had stated that he didn't intend to remove certain things, like the 2 reboot reset and such.

It does seem though like it would be more user friendly to only apply the settings after 1 reboot, then force the user to accept them as stable. If they aren't accepted or if there's a second reboot, revert to original. Once the user accepts them, it would be nice if synapse would lock them in tied to the kernel version/date. As long as the kernel version and date match, apply the users settings if they've been accepted as stable. I'd bet this would alleviate almost everyone of the "my settings didn't stick" posts. This could be done via script as well realistically by echoing all of the sysfs lines. Of course, that's a little beyond a lot of people.... Maybe instead of modifying synapses's source, just add a button for like "Export settings to init.d" then disable synapse until the user wants to change something.

The only issue with this would be if someone flashed a new rom, but the rom doesn't play nice with your kernel. Though, to be fair... most people would probably restore a backup if that happened since they're most likely going to punch their normal settings into synapse anyway.

Just spit-balling ideas :p
