Yeah i walked away for a while from my phone and bluetooth speaker once when it happened and it killed the voicecoil in the speaker, a hundred and 50 dollar speaker so I would be willing to pay to have this issue corrected to prevent any further issues. I'm afraid its going to kill the speakers in my car next.
[G2 Android Development] phoenix_rizzen:
I don't use the sound control stuff, but I tested it in synapse: anything with headphone/headset in the name can be adjusted.

Anything with speaker reverts to 0 when you press the checkmark to apply it.

And the microphone one won't change at all when I press the slider.

Edit: I see that the root cause has been discovered. Lol. Guess I should read through the entire thread before posting.

This was with R8 release.

[G2 Android Development] bleached45:
How about your microphones? Mine stay at 10. Jump to 10 after applying anything else. Seems that fauxsound can't edit them either.

Made a backup of everything, Changed Data and Cache to f2fs, mounted MTP over recovery, copied everything back to the SD, flashed R8, restored Data... OMG, my d800 is butter smooth. If I where a girl I'll fall in love with you Render. Oh right! You're already married. ?
[G2 Android Development] bleached45:
Neither of those things should stop you from loving Render. XP

Also, can you move files in any file browsers? Another user mentioned it always fails after switching to f2fs. Was just curious.
[G2 Android Development] albertorodast2007:
Yep. Right now I'm using ES File explorer to move some images back to their folders. Just an odd thing, the TWRP backup folder I copied over recovery MTP disappeared now that the phone booted, I'll reboot into recovery and see if its visible from there...
[G2 Android Development] phoenix_rizzen:
I've been copying and moving files around all afternoon via ES Explorer (root explorer turned off) without issues.

[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
I have not seen that report before. I have no issues and move files all the time (Audiobooks).

I am building again. This time with working Sound Control (Fo Real this time). I also updated the ramdisk, May help with issues on newer roms? Not sure since I have not seen them personally so it may not actually be a Ramdisk issue.
[G2 Android Development] bleached45:
It was probably an isolated incident. I haven't used f2fs yet for data. I was just trying to see if this was something I'd run into when I make the jump over. Thanks guys!
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Uploaded R9.

Really just fixed Sound Control and Updated Ramdisk
[G2 Android Development] pqee:
Installed r9, rebooted nice and quick. Rebooted again and still boots up quick. So far it hasn`t been stuck on the boot animation.

I`ll reboot again in a few hours after using the phone and make sure it`s still working fine.

Thanks!
[G2 Android Development] HueyT:
R9 is great so far on VS980. Will call somebody in AM and check call quality tomorrow. Thank you for your hard and genius work :good:

[MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION] Any progress made on F320 branch? Would love to test your kernel on LP release to see if reboot issue is solved.
[G2 Android Development] -JFK-:
Hello.

First, thank you a lot for R9 release! You rock!

What governor is the best for balanced perf/battery?

I use on-demand from the beginning but you have probably tweaked one for best results.

Do you enable Intelliplug?

And wich is the best I/O scheduler? (I have F2FS enabled)

[G2 Android Development] carlos67:
R9 has fixed my speaker gain setting in Synapse. Thanks Render for such a quick fix. :)
[G2 Android Development] :
Someone had posted this up in the blisspop thread a little while back.

https://plus.google.com/app/basic/stream/z12bexhgwya4cthmv23eibdjjobpilv10

Apparently one of the aicp guys had an audio fix zip for the g2. One is just an audio effects config. The other has different drivers.

Maybe that's something to look at for the volume issues, walking/jumping and such.
[G2 Android Development] bbender716:
Just moved my data and cache to f2fs on r9. It's safe to say my own imminent release is complete ;) thanks again for your continued dedication and always respectful tone.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
really I have tested everything out over and over. I have test file system performance and I have tested battery performance. Zen scheduler just out performed every other scheduler out right now. Also for governor, interactive right now gives the best performance/battery ratio. You could use ondemand though. It may help but if so, not my much.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
The sound right now is the best I have had on LP. Can anyone confirm?
[G2 Android Development] -JFK-:
Same there, no crack, no echo (with stock profiles)

And I use it for my Job (40 to 50 call/day)

Probably the best that I had on the D802 on LP (my wife confirm).
[G2 Android Development] RoboJoe:
Same here. VS980, BlissPop 2.0 nightly, R9 kernel. Using Root Explorer. f2fs both cache and data.

I'll see about getting a log in a bit. (At work, just wanted to confirm.)
[G2 Android Development] bleached45:
R9, D800 Blisspop 2.0 nightly (Feb 3).

Sound is amazing. And the FauxSound app works wonderfully again (I try to use that over synapse, mostly because I had some issues with the older synapse implementation, I think I may try it again though with your profile fix).

Music sounds great!
[G2 Android Development] RoboJoe:
//sigh

Titanium Backup, the double-edged sword. Cleared data for the file manager app and it works fine.

Moving along...

Why Render is not a "Reconized Dev" on XDA ???

What can we do to make what he deserve ?
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Nope, I dug and dug and found no solution. So because of that I am waiting for LP source to drop to really start working on it again.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Actually, I guess its time to reveal. I have just recently been made a Recognized Developer! Just takes time on their end to get me all setup. I was gunna wait till it showed up but I guess now is as good a time as any!

[G2 Android Development] bolt890:
The sound is truly amazing right now, definitely the best on LP maybe even all roms.
[G2 Android Development] blacklight1025:
Yeah, seeing this kernel grow from what it was to what it is now is pretty astounding. So much attention to detail, and I'm really anal about the way my phone runs, so having this much control is exactly what I've wanted in a kernel. I don't post on here often mainly because I don't normally have any problems, but I jus wanted to say thanks again for all your hard work and dedication, [MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION]

One sec, setting up a server from scratch is a pain and still getting kinks worked out but the upside is I have a 100mbit connection on Fiber optic backbone so it should be EXTREMELY fast to download. Thanks for letting me know!
[G2 Android Development] Vollspacken:
Why keeps the fast charging feature resetting every few minutes? Happens on LP-R9 on D802 with newest BlissPop-Nightly-Build (03022015) and f2fs on /cache and /data
[G2 Android Development] Hid3rs:
A couple posts back you guys talked about Bluetooth sound/volume issues; hopefully these two (this and this) will fix the problems.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Back up. Thanks!

Synapse I assume is what you are talking about. It shows a false positive. Fast charge now disables and re-enables automatically now. So if you are unplugged from such a device it will disable. When you plug back in it will enable itself but all synapse is showing is that the on/off state has changed.

Looks interesting. Thanks for posting.
[G2 Android Development] vPro97:
Unfortunately, I tried again and it still wouldn't boot up.

It might be me! It might be the loki zip and it might be the multiboot patcher.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Everyone,

Thanks for the kind words. I am pretty pumped about being a recognized development now. It's more that I love what I do, I am passionate about it and now I am being recognized for it. I really llenjoy this thread and want to continue what I am doing. I want to motivate others to start developing. That's the only way we will start getting out of the box features, rooms, or kernels. I want to see different perspectives because I don't want android to turn into ios and become stale. Thanks again!

Kind Regards

Zachariah

I think I might take up kernel or ROM development. Do you think I could with my PC. Its AMD Turion X2 64-Bit 2.1 GHz 4gb ram and I can install whichever OS necessary. Lmao except Mac OS, tried that didn't work.
[G2 Android Development] MaluNoPeleke:
Thanks for all your work Render!

Will also KK users profit from some of the R8/R9 benefits in a hopefully R27 release?
[G2 Android Development] berryman13:
R9 let's do it. Haven't caught up the last few pages about file transfer but I'll test asap. Only data and cache are f2fs.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
That's plenty. Especially for kernel work. For romantic work it will work just slower. Also make sure you have enough hard drive space. Start out with Ubuntu to build with. That's the easiest.

Yes sir. That's next

Remind me your phone model again please.

R9 is running pretty good. Does feel a bit laggier to me than r5 or r6 did.
[G2 Android Development] RoboJoe:
So, that file permission problem isn't as solved as I thought it would be, many apps fail to write to the sdcard partition, all with permission denied.

Furthermore digging shows that they're all trying to write to a folder called 'sdcard1' which needs root to write to, and my files and such are all in a location called 'sdcard' or 'sdcard0' or '/mnt/storage/0/sdcard/' or what not. Specifically, everything seems to be trying to write to a non existent 'Android' folder in the 'sdcard1' directory.

I'm normally pretty competent with this sort of thing, but the obvious solution of making a symbolic link fails. Not only does it not work, but a reboot undoes it anyway.

This all happened after switching to f2fs (data and cache only).

VS980, Blisspop 2.0.

I can grab a log in a few minutes, if needed. Anyone seen anything like this?

Edit: Oh yeah, and I'm on R9.

[G2 Android Development] Really now:
I'm not noticing any lag on my D800. I've been running it since 5:30 this morning with stock settings. Did you change anything? I'm not disputing your experience just saying that to me it seems just as perky! I'm on the Vanir rom and my understanding of kernels is that it's the middle man between software and hardware. I wonder if you're on a different rom that that might make a difference? Anyway, I'm liking the newest update and the increase in volume I have now. Thanks [MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION]
[G2 Android Development] whatnow275:
What is the proper way to convert /data to f2fs? I tried and now it says encrypted and needs a password.

I know it's probably posted but I couldn't find it in my (brief) searches
[G2 Android Development] fLipz:
check Post #3 by the O.P.

What ROM are your trying to flash?

[MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION]

Awesome R9 Kernel + BlissPOP.v2.0 Nightly (D802-F2FS /data & /cache)

Thank you for spending your time to us. You made our day enjoyable. Looking forward for more.
[G2 Android Development] :
LOL "romantic"... You got autocorrected pretty great there.

Sorry for the off topic... By does your twrp still boot properly with both positions as f2fs?
[G2 Android Development] PatrickMac:
I had a similar problem some time ago. The problem for me was, that I copied the folders from my PC to my phone after the /data format. For some reason Android doesn't like that you copy whole folders. What I did was to rename the copied folders with a file manager in android and re-create them. After that copied the items of the respective folders back to the newly created folders. In the end I deleted the renamed folders with the file manger of TWRP.

Don't ask me why, but this will work for sure. Had the same pushbullet problem and whatnot.
[G2 Android Development] fLipz:
no problem here on my end mate. what version of twrp are you using? have you tried 2831?
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
I think its even smoother myself. Did you change anything from default settings?

Not sure what your problem is and you seem to be the only one having the problem. SD Card1 is there for F320 users. It should have no bearing on your phone at all. I will did through the log (Thanks!) and see what I can find.

Glad to hear! Yeah this build seems rock solid for me too!

Did you format /system too? Also I assume you installed R9? Lastly what is your phone model?

Users always need to post Kernel Build, Phone Variant and Rom.
[G2 Android Development] albertorodast2007:
Ohhh... So that's what happened. I transfered the entire folder with adb push (folder) (sdcard) ended up with two sdcards.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
I have not had this problem. You do need to let android boot once after flashing the rom then reboot. There are certain default folders you need to let Android create before you just copy back all of your folders back.
[G2 Android Development] PatrickMac:
Hm, I'm not sure. But it is definitely some kind of permission problem. Not kernel related.

Btw. may I ask what ROM you are personally using with your kernel?
[G2 Android Development] fix-this!:
To test i flashed back to r6, its night and day smoother on my d800 running darkobas. Optimax, zen, -25v, cache formatted to f2fs. Just saw alot of stutter on r9. Tried different govenors to. Oh well.
[G2 Android Development] RoboJoe:
Yup, that did the trick, thanks!

I had just recently done a full wipe, so I simply did another one and only moved over the specific files I needed to flash, booted, and it works as expected.

A curious side note: the 4 files I moved over to flash are completely gone after booting.

Anyway, thanks again for the tip!
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
I have the D800 as well and believe R9 is smoother than R6. But not all phones were created equally. lol How old is the rom your running? If you are up for it I would love some logs from Syslog. Maybe after doing the same things that you see stutter in while running R9. Thanks for the report.

Glad you got it figured out!

Yeah they are created different. My wifes g2 runs r6 and darkobas, same setup and needs a different cpu govenor for smoothness. Im on the 3.17 build. Pretty recent. Ill probably update my rom this weekend and ill try r9 again on a clean slate.
[G2 Android Development] whatnow275:
Well my phone boots. When I change back to ext4 no issues, when I try f2fs I have the encryption bug. Do I have to flash the ROM after changing to f2fs regardless?

[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Let me know how it goes.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Actually I was thinking, the biggest change (performance wise) from R6 and R9 is a rather large change I made in CPU Boost Settings. And that is Hotplug Boost. Look under the CPU tab and make sure its checked. Thats probably what you are seeing. Because in R6, when you did anything like touch the screen to scroll or start something that required 3 cores, anytime a core was hotplugged it would start out at the CPU Boost freq for Input Boost Freq instead of ramping up from 0 (like in R9).

In R7 - R9 it is disabled to save a little battery. I may add it back after playing with it again for a time.
[G2 Android Development] ktetreault14:
[MENTION=5438598]RenderBroken[/MENTION] Great already have ubuntu 14.10 triple booted. Ill delete linux mint and use the space to add to ubuntu
[G2 Android Development] jesssiii:
R7 really agreed with me. All I changed were: lowered max CPU by one level, min all the way to 960... And gpu down to 3-something changing to simple conservative from Adreno. Kept all else stock.

So now I'm using R9. Tried changing to Bacon plus all the above to capture the magic. I'm mainly interested in best battery life. R7 default was interactive, correct? What would you recommend to make it more conservative like R7?

BTW, not f2fs, using Faux's sound and clock apps, no viper.

Data/Cache F2FS + R9 + AICP NIghtly 20150203

Hi Render,

Thanks for the update, appreciate that. Currently my d802 is running almost 15 hours with the following configuration:

1) Data/Cache converted to f2fs using TWRP 2.8.4.0 by blastagator

2) AICP Nightly 20150203

3) Render kernel R9

4) Lolliviper 2.3.30

No major problem encountered.

Congratulation of being Recognized Developer as well :good: you deserved that :D
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
well really all you would need to do is just adjust the max freqs per core to get it like r7. You may even try the conservative governor. See what you get out of it.

Thanks!

So it got stuck on my next boot a few hours later, but there are posts in the CM12 thread that look similar (boots initially but not on subsequent reboots) so I'm thinking it's ROM related and not kernel. I updated my AICP from Feb 03 to Feb 04 build and so far so good but who knows.
[G2 Android Development] fix-this!:
Maybe its synapse but on r9 i notice custom cpu clock speeds dont stick on reboot. It seems the max speed is downclocked and locked?

[G2 Android Development] F670ES:
I have a couple of noob questions , and can't find answers to them in this topic. I'm on CM12 nightly 20150204 on my D802 and want to flash this kernel.

1. Do I have to format to F2FS to get this kernel working, or will it work on EXT4 ?

2. Where Can I find JB Bootloader for D802 ? I understand that if I would flash this kernel now on my CM12 i would brick my phone ?

I will be very gratefull for your help.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
Thakns for at least searching first!

1. No, My kernel will auto-mount correctly regardless of how you have it formatted.

2. If you were able to flash the CM12 nightly, then you should already be on the JB bootloader. Also even if you had a KK bootloader, you still wouldn't brick your phone. It just would not boot up and you would just have to either reflash the rom or a compatible kernel to fix the issue so its pretty safe to do.
[G2 Android Development] aToS88:
A small report on battery life with R9... Comparing to the test R8 it seems that android itself consumes less battery by at least 10-15% in general and therefore the phone can live for two whole days without a charger. In my case this means 6+ hours of SOT. Awesome, thanks Render! [emoji3]

(of course on the very same rom)
[G2 Android Development] LS89:
"It will soon be bumped and you will need to update to a KK Bootloader. "

im sorry, but i have a stupid qustion

“soon be bumped”, what is "it"

if it is RenderKernel, it had been bumped already, am i rignt?

you said even though bumped Kernel will work only with JB bootloader

oh, i cannot understand... :(
[G2 Android Development] schwem:
Oh wow. Exact opposite for me. Vs980 running blisspop with cpus dialed down to 1,9 running interactive govs. I get 3.5-4.5 sot with R9 but with same settings on same rom I'm getting 5-6.5 hrs sot with stock kernel, which I believe to be one of Renders kernels anyway. Not sure I understand why
[G2 Android Development] F670ES:
I came to CM12 from Cloudy G2. What if i don't have JB bootloader ? I will reflash CM12 but still won't be able to flash this kernel then.

Where can I download JB bootloader and how can I check what kind of bootloader do I have at the moment ?
[G2 Android Development] Hid3rs:
Well, did you flash KK bootloader manually? If the answer is no, you're on JB bootloader. CM12 or any other 5.0 ROM wouldn't boot if you were on KK bootloader even with their built-in kernel. You said you're using CM12, which means you don't have to worry about the bootloader.
[G2 Android Development] RenderBroken:
I was going to bump my KK kernel but ran into issues that really aren't worth resolving atm. So the Sentence has been removed from OP. Thanks for pointing it out.

Right on the money. I have a weird way of thinking sometimes and can skip logical steps. Thanks for explaining for him!
