Hi Guys

I have been running LVSW 20070423 since it was released. Yesterday i decided to give Majik a go. All i can say it is terribly slow. Even clean ROM without applicvations. Could only stand it for 30min and then i reflashed LVSW back. The other thing is default coulors, i could hardly see my screen when outside. Dialer is crap, i like native WM6 dialer when you can type a few letters and then hide the dialpad. In Majik there are 4 lines only and if you have a lot of contacts it is a real pain to scroll through.

No good for me at all.

Will stick with LVSW ROM until the official release.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Pumpiron579:
I have installed, Sirius, Voice Commander, Adobe, Live Search, WLM 1400, and esmertec. I tweaked the performance myself and set up mms and MEdia net and ISP/WAP settings myself. After I reinstalled Majik I have had no problems. I think that those problems came from WLM and IE because of the IPhone owners taking up my bandwidth:)

Note....Everybody that had problems was the same day they released the IPhone and we are all on AT&T

Second Flash

I think I had a bad flash the first time around.

I reflashed yesterday and the speed problems have dissapeared.

I was waiting +/- 20 seconds for /windows to open using file explorer.

That's all gone now and the ROM is pretty nippy and stable so far for my application.

But I do feel that all the extras trying to mimic the "Touch" ROM will have an effect on the speed and maybe stability.

That's why is still flash a different ROM every week or so.

To date Sleuth seems to have the combo nearly right.

LVSW cooked up fantastic ROM's, but he seems to be playing with his ELF now. - a bummer for us Hermes users.

Majick slowishness

I've found that installing the video dialler (3 cab files) dramatically slows down the Majick rom. I thought I was imagining things so I hard reset and repeated the excersise a couple of times with the same effect.

I leave the video dialler off now. I can't think of a time that I've ever used it although I do obsess about having a feature on my phone that I can't use even though I never use it.

Although Majick is an excellent ROM I did find the current LSVW was a bit quicker. The HSDPA problem in this ROM meant that it was a no-goer for me though.

I'm not complaining you understand, I'm very grateful for all the work people have done to get me WM6 on my phone!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joej:
only problem i have with majic so far is that when I add the new internet 3G connection, my username and password never seems to get saved no matter after how long. i have tried to both soft reset and power off, but still the 3G username/password never gets saved. anyone have any ideas on this?

Nice! will test it on my w8! :) im on XtreStoLite 2.0 Odex without Fingerprint since my bootloader is still 5.0.2

Edit : confirmed second boot working without fingerprint on the rom!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] kossiewossie:
working great on my 925F edge, with 5.1.1 bootloader and XtreStrolite rom <3
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mikeyinid:
I looked at your github. What are the memory killer tweaks? I don't see anything that really seems to correlate to memory killer. Also, how did you disable OOM killer? From what I've seen, OOM is present but does nothing. I'm just asking for my own sanity :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Oh, my changelog for this build is as confused as my current state of mind is. OOM is back and enabled in this build, it was disabled prior to building in the configuration.

And looked at the commit history, yes you do seem to be right about missing memory-killer patches.

Sorry, I haven't managed to get all the patches I used to run in yet. Something was blocking boot for all week, thats why 3 governors are still disabled.

Today was my graduation day, it's a bit turbulent.. Published today instead on next Monday/Tuesday since it only lacks some minor patches at the moment
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mikeyinid:
OK, just making sure I'm not going crazy. I've spent months trying to figure Samsung's method of memory management out, my head has nearly exploded more times than I can count. I wouldn't waste your time with OOM or LMK stuff in the kernel. It does nothing. All of the memory management stuff is in the services.jar, and they're changing it in the next update. So the little bit I have figured out will be useless lol. Congrats on graduating too BTW :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] thehustleman:
Does this kernel root also? I use one of the kernels that rooted 5.1.1 automatically and want to know if I will lose root by flashing this. Thanks in advance for any help.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Thanks :D Yeah, they work in mysterious ways that much is true. Otherwise disabling it should have solved it. Well, it didn't. At least I found a method to get new sourcecode within 15min after the firmware release.. They kind of rolled out the red carpet for me now.

Theoretically, yes. In reality I updated the ramdisk about 5min prior to uploading and couldn't test if it works. But I believe that it does :D
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] skivnit:
Thanks, let's flash this baby

What cpu governor are you suggesting?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Interactive, it's greatly adapted to the clusters and twice as big as the "usual" old Interactive thanks to it. You can also give simplgov a shot, it's basically Interactive with some changes I wanted to try out :D
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Rebel25:
Just flashed the kernel lets see how it performs. Currently on the interactive governor. Can you give some insight into your simplgov governor? What does it compare to?

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Rebel25:
OK thanks. Was hoping for is a bit more info. But a magician never reveals their secrets. :D

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] matheus_sc:
This kernel as memory killer? Or all apps works fine in background?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Yes, I'm blind and yes, I'm talking to myself. Found what I was looking for so desperately. The promised new simplgov feature is now a mere formality to complete :)

Batterylevel dependant scaling and more insane ideas en route
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] NZnewbie:
Ive underclocked the A53 cluster to 600mhz on interactive and A57 to 1600mhz and battery is lasting pretty well. Maybe theres an issue somewhere but that seems to make the battery a lot better than it has been for me.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Okay, I'm going for vacation tomorrow. There is no way I'll finish my scaling code tonight, and neither the newest sourcedrop. But I'm prepping my netbook to get it done while travelling and I'll have plenty of good and fast internet ;)

I'll be "away" for two weeks roughly

S6 5.1.1 adb shell (no) adb root

I have a T-Mobile 925T S6 Edge.. Previously I ran stock 5.1.1 kernel rooted with SuperSU 2.49 and all rooting features worked fine on the phone.

When I used ADB shell from a linux box, I got a root prompt on/from the phone, but could not use root features such as remount / rw. I got the message "adb cannot run as root in production builds". I tried Chainfire's adb insecure v2.00 but that didn't solve the problem.

Then I installed SimplKernel_5.1.1_R5U2, but the problem persists. Thus my first question is *should* SimplKernel_5.1.1_R5U2 fix the problem and allow me full root from adb shell? In any case appreciate ideas how to fix.

Thx, Gus
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Never did that, but I'll take a look ;)

I'm removing governors - They do more harm than they do good. In my next build there will be simplgov and interactive plus maybe some enabled by default by Sammy. Thats why some were disabled I guess :eek:

Status update:

My netbook severly dislikes 64bit compilations, but [MENTION=1768899]g.lewarne[/MENTION] is helping me out with compiling, since I can't do it :)

But since the new control app is around the corner, I might just release r6 in a week or end of next week, instead of pumping out a half baked update this week.

What I'm currently working on is to make batteryscaling code to do what I want it to do (somehow my compiler and me are currently disagreeing on some points) and expand the governors battery dependant features further - I thought of toning down the display upon low battery, but only if simplgov is selected. More ideas are always welcome, I'm in a creative phase ;)

Oh, I'm also relaxing during my vacation :P

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Huge thanks! :D Hopefully I can make this battery stuff work, and work well :D

Edit: Looks promising so far. Batterylevel should be readable, now it's time to actually do something with it :P
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Status Update:

BatteryScaling code is finished and I'll add dependant code to the governlr tonight.

I wanted to expand it to charging detection, but the C isn't checking out for some reason.. Something wrong with fscanf - If you are fluent in C and can look over the code I'd be incredibly happy ;)

The Debugger can't find a flaw :eek:

But the main stuff works! Now lets see which things in the governor I can edit for BatteryScaling.. First version will be rudimentary, I'll look to expand the dependancies to the chargelevel as we go

Edit: Currently I'll make the sampling time and probably make the max freq depending on batterylevel (latter is problematic as of yet) as well as slowing scaling a bit on lower levels and making it faster on higher levels. Ohh, and make a targetload calculation, possibly a bit more complex, like depending on the amount of currently available cores or something similar. Creative phase lol

Edit2: Currently got 92 lines of code and counting :P
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] ken_e1407:
looking forward for a new update w this kernel :D
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
It will be the best version ever made :D
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Fixed my mistake, scanned one file twice but didn't properly close the stream after the first time.. 10sec change and everything works! I hope to enable the systemwide battery dependant behaviours only if simplgov is selected. Dynamic maximum frequency comes to mind for example.. Choo choo, feel the Hypetrain!

Oh, saving behaviours will be disabled while plugged in to good ol' AC.

What about sprint s6 edge? G925P
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Mentalmuso:
Can you flash custom kernels on sprint phones?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Sorry, but the CDMA phones are too different from the rest to be unified. If you buy a phone in the future, try to get the International variant, those are usually the ones where the party is on with development, at least with Samsung ;)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] TommyBeretta:
Could anyone say something about GPS with this kernel ? Is it fixed ? Problem on my S6 Edge : Signal strength is good, fix is fast, but accuracy isn't and it's always jumping around which sucks the most ! Compared under same circumstances with a S5 and S4 the S6 did a bad job, although signal strength was better ! What the...?!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] defybest:
No problem with Simplkernel, all good, nothing to fix. You need to change your NTP server for better GPS experience.

There's a chance of it. Since, Wolfson DAC is on Galaxy S6, but the only way it's gonna happen is if Lord_Boeffla jumps in on the Galaxy S6 Bandwagon on kernel development but he can only do that if he has the phone at hand. I remember his galaxy S4 was funded and the Galaxy S5 was given to him.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Yeah, but in our case Samsung already almost fully utilizes the DAC
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] masri1987:

[MENTION=6398395]mythos234[/MENTION] any news about the update?? p.s:which rom are you using man?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] marsen2567:
Yeah almost but Boeffla is the expert on tweaking Wolfson DAC, he can take that sound to a whole new level. I'm very excited if he gets a hold of an S6. He's a very passionate audiophile but then again sound quality is very subjective..

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Currently stock, but I'm considering Xtrestolite again ;)

I'm at home Wednesday evening, by then I should complete the driver and integrating it into the sourcecode should only be a formality :)

This morning I woke up at 7am and had a *brilliant* vision and completed a rudimentary DrainDetection system, but I have yet to find a suitable way to toggle it. Drain is normal during Gaming, cutting down on performance then would be ... bad. I don't know, probing the GPU speeds and get an average, by which a high value would mean gaming and thus discard the drain would be one way to prevent my code detecting gaming as a drain. Or just an app toggle lol.

Hmm, he's the expert ;)

Too bad, but not surprising to me.. I'm increasingly annoyed with my Edge and probably going to buy a G4 when I'm back from vacation :D

Next to the S6 of course ;)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] cba1986:
Yes, that is a shame really, because it is a beatiful phone.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Need some more testers for the battery features ;)

Only G920F, G920I and G920T, all the rest is covered :D Please PM me your numbers and I'll add you to the WhatsApp group. I'll add you Thursday, so don't wonder if I won't reply to the PMs till then ;)

Especially automatic GamingDetection is a long shot, that will need a lot of finetuning. Currently my plan is to create a 5000 slot array and fill it with a GPU frequency every 10ms. Then a 10sec break. Problem is that too short intervals between the scans will return similar values, so if the freq is high at random... So we need loads of scans. I think that 50sec may be too slow for a detection, which is why I will need you :D
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] NZnewbie:
Ill test thanks!.

Got all the PM's - If you haven't sent a number yet, please do so ;) Didn't get around to reading most of them yet. Maybe I'll shift all this testing to Hangouts instead of the WhatsApp group, it seems more reasonable to me anyways.. What do you think?

Btw, I never ever calculated the average of an array, hope I don't screw it up.. Let alone an array with 5000 slots.. 151 lines of code atm, almost working the way it's intended to work :p
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] :
Is this the right way to undervolt? As i'm pretty new to undervolting.

What I intent to do is the following:

Change governor to Performance

Min CPU Frequency 200

Max CPU Frequency 200

Lower voltage by 25mV, run a stress test for 20 minutes, if nothing lower 25 more.

When stable, I set max CPU Frequency to 300 and do the same, then 400 and so on.

Few questions tho. Should I run A53 and A57 at the same time? How do I know which it use when running the stress test? Also, how do I know when I have lowered the GPU and Busses enough, as I can't do the same test.

Thanks in advance

can't find zImage

Hi, great work with this kernel!

I tried to download and build it too but at the end no zImage was generated (only Image.gz).

I need the zImage to add it to the boot.img file but I can only find an Image.gz file.

Shall I use this one in place of zImage? Am I missing some further commands?

HEELPP!! :crying: :crying: :crying:

Thanks,

Luca
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Thanks :)

Make sure to catch my newer repo with the BOG8 sourcedrop. The Image is what you are looking for. You can just rename it to zImage if you like and it really is about 20mb in size ;)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Status Update...

BOG8 is aboard and some other additions, mainly giant thanks to AndreiLux.

So, the battery features. I mostly integrated my driver already, but it requires an imported library in order to iostream. So I can either edit all includes of my Linux to be compilable (no idea how many it might be) or rewrite everything, include the batterydriver by Samsung (something has to write the batterylevel to a file after all...) and detect the batterylevel via that, instead of reading from a file. Not sure which way to go yet, but my testers seem like the new build already, even without my new feature :)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] mythos234:
Meh, not looking all that bright at all. As a standalone driver, the Battery detection works like a charm. But I can't get the needed libraries included into the kernel compilation (Now it doesn't work at all lol) and yeah.. I'm still looking at the battery driver and try to figure it out, but this feature might not work out in the end.. I'm not giving up yet, just don't get too excited :/ So r6 will probably release soon and without it.

Spent days writing everything and then it failed when implementing it was merely a 5min task.. Sorry

Info

So far I only got feedback for the G920F, G925F, G925T (maybe also Flat? Don't remember). It should work on the same variants as r5 did, it's just that I'm German (making absolutely sure and stuff) and never actually tried it on other variants. If you want to join the testing group, please PM me your phone number, so I can add you to the group there. Only if you have the G92xI please.

[B]My usual sentiments[/B]...
Some of you may have heard it already, but my S6 isn't exactly doing well for a while now. I have troubles with AutoBrightness and the touchkey lights, both not working at the same time most of the time. This means that I had to purchase another phone as my new daily driver, which means that the S6 kernel may have changes to it.. Depending on how r6 performs here, I will continue to work on it parallel to my new phone, or slow down development and release more rarely.
I'm not goign anywhere, just seeing which phone requires more attention and support.
