[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] reypescador:
Thank you very much for your work

I had brightness problems so I start installing V500-4.2.2-Base and I reinstall then CM 11 (M10). Everything eemed to be OK so I install (from recovery TWRP) "RedKernel-r008"

After this I have downloaded and installed Synapse but everytime I try to run it I grant it from SuperSU and appears a message "No UCI support detected"

I´m sure I´m doing something wrong but I don´t know what. Can anyone help me?

Thanks a lot
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] uzi2:
To use Synapse you also need to flash the UKM script linked in the first post.

With early versions of the kernel, UKM was included, but as our device has been supported by UKM this is no longer necessary.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] reypescador:
Thank you very much for your answer.

Installing from recovery?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] uzi2:
You're welcome

Yes
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] l2yangop:
This might sound noob but what should the kernel version say if i flashed this correctly? I flashed the zip from twrp but it doesnt look like it took...I see nothing indicating "redkernel"

overlock is limited due to cooling issues

What, you mean you don't have access to a freezer?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Cal:
Felt I should post this. First of all, the kernel is a great improvement running it on CM Nightlies...much more battery saving and even tho I had a bit of problem with the brightness due to using 442 base I still think it's an improvement.

Thing I wanted to express is the bit about flashing the two zips to supposedly get one back to 442 base didn't work for me. Now it may have been my fault somewhere - but afterwards I could not get to 'recovery' TWRP. All I would get is a dark boot loop and just a fleeting glance of the opening to TWRP and some script running and then CM starting and getting darker by the second and then nothing...

I thought I could then use the program by LG to download and install the latest OS. NO...the new issues are blocking it out as LG is trying to freeze out that operation. I never could get anything, even using foreign not US download sites. Nothing would work and I've done it before.

Anyway, I finally stumbled into a data wipe somehow...don't really know how and am back in business. So beware is the warning. If it happened to me...it could happen to someone else as things go.

Hi, is gpu undervolt possible? It would extend the battery life which is too short on this tablet. On another topic, does anyone know a cover with a slot for an extended battery? Thanks
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
Battery life is too short??

I've never seen GPU undervolt implemented in Trinity so it is either impossible or snake oil
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] slebit:
Seems normal. How many hours of screen on time?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
About 2h sot. I wasn't saying it wasn't normal. To the contrary. If he is getting worse battery than that, something is wrong on his end.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] cojocar.andrei:
Yeah, that's it. My pad runs just 5h with screen on, wi-fi on and just browsing and I've decreased cpu freq to 1400Mhz and it's undervolted as well (92% battery -> 10%). I've noticed that if I set gpu to 320Mhz max then the consumtion decreases noticeable (I'll do a second run 92% to 10% to see how long does it last), so I figured that decreasing the voltage on gpu a little bit will save some juice. 5h of just browsing (which I'm only interested in) is just too short, damn it. LG could have put a bigger battery in this tables, otherwise it is soo good...

Thanks.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] slebit:
Hehe. I didn't notice your smiley. I'm sorry! :)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] SPBoss:
Kernel is running great on mahdi ROM with a noticeable improvement.

I would be extremely grateful if the dev could add unified driver support, I would love to use my wireless keyboard and touchpad as it works on so many android devices apart from the gpad.

This kernel has solved all the microstutter issues ive had since getting the tablet! No weird slowdowns either. Using infected CM11 M10 v2. Auto brightness seems to be fine after resetting the adjustments too. Nice work!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Cal:
Just wasn't to post this 'supposed' try to go to 442 from 422 & still be none of the 'hell' of the black bootloops I'd just gotten over trying to change core from 422.

I was running CM-12-Snapshot w/ this great kernel. So, I tried this...which may be crazy...BUT, it worked perfect!!

Here's what I did...so some guru/or similar, tell me this did nothing, please! I booted to recovery, then loaded bootstrap(?) 422, then added 442, then this 'Red-Kernel', all in order, and hit "install". All went fast through all 3 zips and rebooted. All was nice and bright during rebooting...no dimming, all smooth & fast & bright w/ adjust available.

Please, someone see if this 'could' have worked.

Cal :D
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] cronot:
Sorry, you post parse not can.

Seriously though. Are you saying you tried something and it worked for you? Or do you wanna try something and you're asking us if it could work? And please elaborate on the "something", I'm not sure if you're talking about 4.4.2 base / bootloader vs 4.2.2 base, or something else.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Cal:
I'm saying it worked. I did exactly what I stated. Why should I install each zip, then reboot back before installing the second zip (which would be 442 base & never got to the install - just hung on 422 (darker until I couldn't see the booting...and hung because I "was" on base 422)? Something did go to 442 boot before the install of the 'Red-Kernel of the latest build'...! Now no problem & running snapshot 12 CM & adjustable brightness. Maybe shouldn't...but sure seems like I'm on 4.4.2 now...will check it tonight by command. Seems to be working like 442 base should. :cool: :good:

---------- Post added at 07:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:52 PM ----------

Oh, forgot...I had already installed Snapshot 12 and had it configured w/ stock kernel, not Red one. Now red is there and running perfect & much better, it seems on battery, & holding bright boot screen from go. Not looping like before. Hell, trying this is easy...so why not? Just wanted some one to verify. :rolleyes:
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Cal:
=AC= 5:19 AM (3 hours ago) to acalco I think this works basically getprop has some variables that I believe are set from the firmware base. I assume you have a version of twrp installed 1. Boot into recovery 2. Advanced, Terminal Command 3. Hit select to choose the root directory 4. Type getprop 4. Search results for two entries ro.build.description and ro.build.fingerprint and see if those lines contain V50010a or something newer My tablet has V50010a among other things in both entries and it is 4.2.2 firmware based​

Just checked this (& I'm a noob at this so don't ask me!). As far as I can tell, bootloader is not ID'ed...base is 4.4.2. There is a ton of stuff with roor & 'getprop' in a terminal cmd under recover TWRP...some I don't understand.

That is why I wish a more knowledge member would do this recovery & be much more explanatory than I. Member cronot Yesterday, 05:24 PM **|**#129 *

I think the problem is more serious than that. It overheats quite heavily while charging, almost too hot to touch.

The heat spot is right where the power management chip is located (Qualcomm PM8921). This frequently leads to freezes and reboots. This chip is suposed to heat while charging, but not THAT much.

Also, this is the only kernel in which the screen dims when the tablet is connected to a charger. And it does not charge faster.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] muiriddin:
I have not noticed a hotspot on my tablet, and I have been picking it up lately while having not finished charging due to an irregular schedule (baby at home). What exact region is getting hot for you? (I do not know where the power management chip is located inside the tablet)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
Can you post some temps? Not sure what almost too hot is.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] PureMAD4:
No problems here. No overheating whilst charging or freezes. Loving the kernel. Big thanks to the development
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] EdenGottlieb:
This kernel is fantastic!

In addition to being fast, it adds tons of functionality!

I can now use my G Pad to heat my house in the winter, it also serves as a great frying pan, and I can even make toasts with it.

Thank you very much! ;)
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] DSC05:
What are the best settings for intelli thermal control? These are the ones that come with the kernel

Aren't they much too high? On my HTC One throttling begins at 68 °C.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
There is no such thing as universal best settings. Obviously, the stock settings are what [MENTION=1006034]rickroll[/MENTION] believes are the best settings for his or her usage. As far as these value being too high, not at all. I have throttle off on all my devices. You would not damage/degrade the soc unless you sustain temps above 90C for extended periods. The hardware safety temp is ~105c so obviously Qualcomm think that you might damage the soc above that temp. The thing with HTC One is that it is made of heat-conductive aluminum and it is ideal for dissipating heat. The tradeoff is that because 95%+of the people are physics illiterate, they think their phone is overheating because it is getting warmer to the touch than any plastic counterpart. So HTC runs into the paradox where their phone can dissipate greater amount of heat so they can afford to keep throttle off, but they need to keep the throttle low to avoid customer complains.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] morbidoso88:
Hi, i love your kernel, you are the best, but why you don't update it?? [emoji46]
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] slebit:
If you like this kernel, why update it? Why update a kernel all the time when it's working great?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] muiriddin:
I would suggest a discussion on what additional features we would like would be much more useful than a simple request for updates.

So on that note, what features could this kernel have that would make it even better?
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] cojocar.andrei:
I would like to be able to undervolt the gpu...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] nigelhealy:
I would like f2fs support. If one only changes /cache and /data to f2fs then the read-write performance gain doesn't require the ROM to be changed as it stays read-only on /ext4.

We'll need a f2fs recovery to format but that's not kernel-specific.

I use f2fs /cache and /data and ext4 /system on my Nexus 10.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Darkmasterhk:
i think this kernel has pretty much all what it needs.

But if you ask me:

- simple gpu governor

- westwood tcp

would be nice.

oh that reminds me, does anyone other have the problem, that on myfluxy Hotplug

the unused cores sometimes wakeup, without a reason? On intelliplug everything is fine.

(Myabe it's only related to my apps?)

And again a big thanks [MENTION=4575133]Rick Roll[/MENTION], for this awesome kernel.^^
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] muiriddin:
Assuming we had recovery support I would make use of this feature. Good suggestion!
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] jonup:
How about you guys let [MENTION=1006034] Rick Roll [/MENTION] to worry about these things, unless he asks you to. This kernel I the smoothest for this device and has shïtload if features.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] aicjofs:
I made a special recovery when I was working on F2FS for AIC kernel and stock ROM. Beside F2FS support to kernel I changed TWRP with some source from ktoonsez( https://github.com/ktoonsez/KT-TWRP) that allows you to toggle the type of wipes ext4/f2fs in "settings" menu. It was only TWRP 2.7.0.1 at the time and I couldn't get around the Selinux issues on stock, but if it saves you guys some time.

I'll attach the flashable zip
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] nigelhealy:
Thanks. That looks similar to what we have for N10. Just need the kernel.

The suggestion of f2fs is just a performance boost. Whilst the idea of all-f2fs might be appealing it requires the ROM modifying and benchmarks suggest f2fs slows /system. I have been using f2fs on my N10 for some time no issues.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] bjcrj:
I ran both f2fs full and data only on my n7 and there was no difference in speed between the two that I could tell. F2fs would be a great thing to get on the glad.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Cal:
No matter *what* is added...this is the BEST KERNEL for the LG TAB 8.3 to ever be compiled. If one sets this, installed with CM for the ROM - this config can give super long battery life. How?? When you decide to take a break... Just go on 'airplane' mode standby. Youll be very surprised!!' Try and see! :good:
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Cal:
Rick_Roll is slipping WAY behind the new #19 Mani kernel...can't surrender now...make a new one!! :fingers-crossed: :good:
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] cronot:
Care to explain HOW exactly is it slipping behind? Just because Mani got an update more recent than Red's? Because as far as features, Red kernel has always been ahead of Mani, at least quantitatively speaking.

Not meaning to start a war between which kernel is better, btw. Just use whatever you like. I just find it lame and don't subscribe to the notion that latest == better.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ncguy68:
I have two Gpad 8.3 tablets and I have one setup with Mani 19 and one setup with Redkernel 9. While redkernel has more custom settings Mani has much better gamma (2.3-2.4). I also don't have the system ui crash with Mani.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] cronot:
Well, I don't understand all this rambling I've seen in this and other threads so many times about gamma... My G Pad display contents and brightness look fine to me, I see no need to muck around with gamma (as long as you're paring the kernel with a 4.4 base), but that's me. I suppose I'd have to have two G Pads side by side to notice the difference, for better or worse.

As for System UI crash, sounds like something specific to your setup, I've never had such crashes, Red Kernel or not.

But again, use whatever you like or prefer. If all the kernels around here all have the same set of features, then what's the point in having different kernels at all, right? I was more pissed at the notion that something is automatically better because it is newer or more regularly updated than something else.

WiFi issues with CM11

Thank you very much for this kernel. It is very stable, the battery life is fantastic and this is the only kernel with which I do not get random SD card unmounting - it is rock solid. I do have one bug to report: I run it with CM11 and when I move in between the WiFi networks it does not reconnect. As a matter of fact the WiFi is completely unresponsive and the only way to get it back is to switch to the flight mode, and then back. Also, scanning for new networks does not work very often, and the only way to get connected it to manually set up the AP SSID. This can be quite frustrating while travelling.
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Bronando:
I want to know if Twitch streaming lag is the kernels fault or Twitch apps fault.? and if it is kernels fault can it be fixed? In stock 4.4.2 it works fine. Mani and cyanogenmod kernels have this problem too..

Steps to reproduce:

Open Twitch app

Choose a game, any game

Choose a channel

Streaming...

Choose High or source streaming from the settings (cog)

Wait for 5 mins and it starts to lag and audio starts to glitch

I use this app alot and its why I dont use custom roms on the G pad
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] ckret:
if you have root on stock can you extract the following files

WCNSS_cfg.dat
WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini

these are located in

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Bronando:
Here you go

if you have fun experimenting

you can extract this WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini to

set permissions to

or

740

and see if that fixes your stuttering.

i tried it on twitch and it seems fixed on "high" but "source" still lags. i dont know how this can be helped

[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Eclipse_Droid:
Installed this kernel last night and notices this error showing up in synapse.

Does anybody know what it means?

I'm running CM11 M12 and I did flash the 4.4.2 base before flashing then everything was a clean flash.

On a side note I was playing round with the kernel settings today because GTA San. Andreas was skipping a lot of frames when I tried it. Can anybody suggest a solution to this? Cheers
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] muiriddin:
mine did that the first boot after installation and after another reboot it went away...
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] Deltadroid:
Thanks for this. I was initially experiencing brightness problems with this kernel, but I didn't realize that I was using the 4.2 base files. I installed the recommended 4.4 base and now everything is great. I had thought that the v50010a image was 4.4 based, but it wasn't. :)

Edit: after a few days testing this kernel, I've noticed that my magnetic case will cause the tablet to reboot when I close it. The magnet tells the system to go to sleep, but it crashes the tablet instead, causing a reboot. This happens when I'm running tTorrent or any other memory intensive application. I've reverted back to stock CM 11 and now it doesn't crash when closing the case under heavy load.

Edit 2: I think this problem has to do with the device being forced into sleep mode while it's writing to the sdcard.

Hey Rick Roll, could you please have a try at building a CM11 too from yourself? I own a L90 who recently has "official" support in CM and with that my phone seems faster as in more fluid than the tab. I think that official and infected_ builds for this tab have something wrong.

I was great with CM-12-Infected with the Red Kernel #11 - but the new kernel build #12 is not working for me at all as the colors are jumbled and then my whole system goes down.

MD5's and all check on this new kernel, so it IS the correct kernel I downloaded - but looks like the 2nd try to install it through recovery is the same story.

I also notice the 2 kernels have quite a bit size difference between them...something must be taken out of kernel #12? Oh well, it is beta. I was having the same color weirdness that Infected said he was experiencing.

Snapshots are considered more stable, but according to my experience nightlies are stable too, you have simply to consider from how many times a rom is under development: 4 months generally are enough.
