Hello,

I extracted the boot.img from the ROM zip file and flashed it, wiped cache / dalvik cache, I'm now back to stock kernel.

Was it enough to do that or did I need to do something more ?

Also, are the ROM settings saved in some file somewhere on the phone so I could export it and copy it back on the phone just in case I want to do a clean

install, so I dont have to configure all those settings once again ?

Thanks !
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Yeah,as far as flashing the stock boot.img wiping the cache and dalvik is fine.

I don't really know about you second question. There are always apps like titanium backup that will backup settings as well as apps. Maybe someone else has other ideas.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] aelfinn:
Why, what’s so great about Synapse?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] Mrdream94:
Can you add fading led feature too? Please
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
It gives you control over many things. That may make adjustments easier for people. I may or may not do that. Not really sure yet.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Yes,I will look into this as well.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] aelfinn:
Does it do anything that eg Kernel Adiutor doesn’t do?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Yes,it allows much more control over many things... From what I have seen and the little bit that I've used it.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] aelfinn:
Like what, for example? I mean, I have used it, but I’ve gone back to Kernel Adiutor as I find that more intuitive in terms of layout.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] XaeroZ:
Hello, i installed your custom kernel (cm13 version) into Bliss Rom, and wi-fi stopped running (infinite searching). I I tried to recompile the kernel with bliss rom ramdisk, but os does not start (bootloop). Can you recompile your kernel to Bliss Rom? I attach stock kernel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Yeah,Bliss Rom needs more changes than just using the ramdisk. I haven't looked into it in a bit,but I know there is a separate repo for the bliss kernel on github. I'm not sure of the differences.

I will try to look into it at some point,but can't say when.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Honestly I'm not 100% sure. I haven't looked into it in awhile,but I just remember it having many options. Although I do agree that from what I remember it taking a bit of time to get used to compared with kernel adiutor.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Update..

Added zip for Bliss. Untested,but WiFi should work. Someome let me know if they try it. Thanks
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] XaeroZ:
Sorry, no changes. I flashed the kernel, and WiFi stopped running again :(
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Hmm,strange. I decided to go ahead and flash Bliss just for the purposes of testing the kernel. WiFi works fine here, so I'm a bit confused.

I'm posting from bliss now with working WiFi.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] XaeroZ:
I tried to flash the kernel once again (with wipe dalvic of course), and flashed only boot.img from zip. Nothing. WiFi is not running :( any suggestions? Clean install?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] Friedensfurz:
Delete /data/misc/wifi and try again

---------- Post added at 12:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:18 PM ----------

And reboot of course ;)
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Well,you must flash the full zip as the WiFi module is included. I'm using the latest build of Bliss and testing on that. Maybe you're on an older build and for whatever reason that's a problem?

If not I'll have to check when I'm able that I uploaded the right zip file.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] HenriFred:
I'm using Bliss. I just flashed your kernel.

Wifi working here...
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
OK,good to know. Thank you for posting.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] XaeroZ:
I deleted the WiFi folder, reboot in recovery mode and flashed the kernel. Nothing new, WiFi is not worked. But thx for help :)

My bliss version is 6.2, it's latest available build for me. I don't know that's the problem is(
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
I built the kernel from and am using bliss 6.4. Maybe try that. Idk,it should work.

No problem. Glad it works. I'll have to have a look into what changed from 6.2 to 6.4 to create this problem. I'll update the main post so people know it only works with 6.4

[MENTION=7065337]spookcity138[/MENTION] I was wondering which CPU governor (for this kernel) is best when in terms of performance. I don't really care about the battery life, it's just about fluidity and performance for me.

I did some research about the different governors but I don't know which one's best, HYPER, performance or a completely different one? Performance seems the most obvious to me, but I'd like to get your advice because there's some many governors!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Hey,

Actually only English is allowed here. I'm not complaining,just saying.Also,even though I do live in the Netherlands my Dutch is poor at best. :D

I do however think,and hope I understand your question.

If I do my answer is this..I don't really know hahaa

I personally always use either zzmove with profile 2 ,ybat or alucard. I am very happy with my performance,but I'm not real sure that either of these is the best performance wise. I also always turn down my animations to .5 or so. I find this is much smoother and I just don't need long animations. Maybe someone else can help you more than me. Good luck!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] :
Oh I just assumed you spoke Dutch since you live in the Netherlands. That means you must've moved here from another country, right? Anyway, thanks for the quick reply! I'll translate my message to English by the way
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
No worries. I try to understand Dutch the best I can. Hopefully my answer was at least related to your question [emoji3]

I did indeed move here from America and I do enjoy it here.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] :
Haha your answer definitely was related to my question, and if you want to make sure, you can view my edited and translated post here:

Off-topic: The Dutch language can be very hard to learn so it'll definitely take some time, but you'll make it through. At least we don't have cases like in Germany...
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Haha,yes. For awhile I couldn't hear the difference in Dutch and German. Now it is very obviously different,so that's a step in the right direction. [emoji3]

I understand Dutch far better than I can speak it. In time I suppose.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] :
Learning a language will happen over time and only by reading and hearing Dutch, you'll improve every day. But since you don't speak Dutch very well, do you go to an international school or something like that?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
No,I'm here because I met a dutch girl while on holiday,so I moved here after some visits.Time will tell how smart that was. [emoji3]

Haha that's such a cool story! I'm sure you'll love it here! It must be hard to find a job when you don't speak Dutch (very well) and you just moved here

Hey spook! Can you make a zip for CM14 too? :)
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Possibly. I'll try tomorrow. I was going to try anyway for myself because my sim card isn't detected on CM14 and I wanted to see if maybe that would help that issue.

If I do successfully get the kernel to boot I will msg you a link as I'm not going to post it up here yet in the very early stages of CM14.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Alucard perhaps?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] Mrdream94:
Yes i agree! Thanks, i'll wait for it! :)

That would be great! Could you message me too?

Sure thing.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] jason13v8:
Is there a custom kernel for cm14 on s5mini g800f. Keep getting robotic voice whilst calling other mobiles. It's been suggested that another kernel might fix it. Any advice?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] Friedensfurz:
I think [MENTION=7065337]spookcity138[/MENTION] is working on it
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
The robotic voice is related to the device tree. A different kernel will not help. That said, I am and will be working on a kernel for CM14. I will not release it until CM14 is out of the early stages though. It just becomes too confusing with problems and if they are kernel related or ROM related.

Same with robotic voice. If this doesn't get solved with updates I will look to do something similar to what I did with CM13 to try to "fix" it.

Hi Spookcity,

I was curious if there is a chance you will be updating your kernel with the MM kernel source when it comes out, I am still experiencing small bugs in slimrom (which has become my favorite, so thanks!) which will probably be solved with the MM kernel. I would do it myself but I have yet to find the time to learn how to compile a custom kernel.

Kind regards,

Knoose
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Possibly, it really all depends on a few things. Mostly how easy it is to merge things. Either way,it is something I plan to look into definitely.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] Knoose:
Ok that would be great! In the mean time, is it hard to build your own kernel? I really would like to try and put my hand to it so I don't have to nag devs like you about this kind of thing.

I have looked around for a bit and I have seen one needs linux, this is not a problem for me as I am familiar with Ubuntu and Raspbian.

If I find the time in the future, is there a tutorial you can recommend me or do I just cherry pick one from the xda forums?

Best, Knoose
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
If you are familiar with Linux it is not super difficult in my opinion. Adding certain things can be a bit tricky. Here is a link to a helpful thread. I'm more than willing to try to help if you have any problems or questions.

Just a quick update. I have started work on the MM sources for this kernel. Can't say when I'll have it up yet. It will still be some time. I'm trying to get all of the Linux kernel patches applied at the moment.

If anyone cares to follow the progress..

Are you going to release this kernel for CM14 as well?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Original Android Development] spookcity138:
Well, I mean I could, but the problem is I don't want to cause confusion as far as any issues and if they are related to the ROM or the kernel. Especially now since CM is no more. I will probably wait until a build of lineage OS is released and go from there.

That said, whenever I have this ready I am willing to message anyone who is interested a link to a CM14 version to test.

Hello all,

I'm not sure if this post goes here, I posted this on the Hermes Mobile 6 forum, and received no responses, so I figure I would try it here.

I've been looking around, and searching the wiki, and I am still a little confused about this file. I have read a few good threads on how to do OEM packaging, but I am still a bit unsure on how to edit this .dat file.

With that being said if anyone could shed somemore light on the initflashfiles.dat file. Let's say I wanted to add 1-Calc Lite and I didn't want to cook via a gui, but by hand. (I like to do things the hard way, as I feel you learn more out of it. Just an 'Ole Marines way of thinking)

In the OEM folder of 1-Calc Lite there is an initflashfiles.txt file. It looks like this;

Directory("\Windows"):-Directory("Skins")

Directory("\Windows\Skins"):-File("default.ini","\Windows\default.ini")

Directory("\Windows\Skins"):-Directory("Default")

Directory("\Windows\Skins\Default"):-File("button.ini","\Windows\button.ini")

Directory("\Windows\Skins\Default"):-File("display_menu.png","\Windows\display_menu.png ")

Directory("\Windows\Skins\Default"):-File("texture2.png","\Windows\texture2.png")

Directory("\Windows"):-Directory("Currency")

Directory("\Windows\Currency"):-File("currency.ini","\Windows\currency.ini")

Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-File("1-Calc Lite.lnk","\Windows\1-Calc Lite.lnk")

Directory("\Windows\Help"):-File("1-Calc.lnk","\Windows\1-Calc.lnk")

Do I just insert that into the initflashfiles.dat file, and if so where exactly would I install that? The reason I ask this is because in looking at the 1-Calc file it looks like it creates a skins directory in the Windows folder, then it has the help directory, which I am thinking that that line goes into the windows\help directory in the .dat file. So if that is the logic behind it where would I put the skins directory from the .txt file into the .dat file? I know this is a bit all over the place, but I hope someone can decipher what I have written, and help me.

sitrep

-no rom/os on phone

-computers(multiple) wont find my phone

-since nexus 5 no sd card slot or otg

-twrp working

-was running cm13

main problem. i wanted to install a new rom on my phone so i deleted the old one, so i could put the new one on. then i realised i did not have a new rom on my phone. so i went to connect is to my computer and it could not find it. so now i have a phone that can boot into twrp and nothing else. i did a full wipe of the system.(every single option available in the twrp options)

how do i get my phone back since i cant put a new rom on my phone since i just cant drag a file on it from my computer. since there is no other way i can put files on my phone. it is not because of lack of drivers. since it used to work just fine. i tried multiple computers to be sure. all of which in the past i could access my phone on.

One of the advantages of adb sideload is to solve this kind of situation.

adb push should help too. Your device must be into the recovery mode.

Other solution: download the factory images and flash everything but userdata.

I recently picked up an unknown condition motog 4g. Won't boot. I figure it had self-discharged into oblivion. Cells came up at 2.16v, but I didn't trust it, got a fresh battery off Amazon. New battery shows no love.

When plugged in, I get no screen but the notification light goes white.

Things I've tried:

Charging for 24H on 2A charger

VOL DOWN + PWR 2min

freezing it

unplugging the screen and letting it charge

holding power for 10+ minutes while off

holding power for 10+ minutes while on charger

So, I've tried everything. Still don't know if it's a corrupted bootloader (possibly?) or if something else is wrong.

Any suggestions?

Any help would be appreciated.

Not to ask to many questions.

But which software do you use to make it smooth like a baby's butt.

Currently I'm using KA and/or EX Kernel Editor, disabled thermal engine but BIG sometimes have no (tunable) governor
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] davtse:
KA is fine. I'm using it as well. These questions are welcome, just not questions that can be answered via a general search on google or the forums.

As for your tunable governor, sometimes you might need to reload the governor in KA, meaning you change it to another governor. It does it sometimes.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] sc754:
Thanks for this, very helpful. My main issue with my redmi 3 is the heat (although it's not really hot, I'd rather no heat at all over higher performance).

So I've set

ro.core_ctl_min_cpu=0

ro.core_ctl_max_cpu=0

Meaning no big cores.

I've also set

echo 2 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu4/core_ctl/min_cpus

So little only has 2 cores running ordinarily. I didn't use your threshold settings above, left those at default and just reduced the number of minimum cores on little.

The biggest boost to performance I've found is just setting:

echo deadline > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/scheduler

echo deadline > /sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/scheduler

So overall, happy with these settings. 2 min little cpus, 4 max (default) and no big cores (so doesn't get hot at all) and deadline improves performance so you don't notice the big cores being off for most uses.

FYI

Geekbench 3, single core = 724, 2400ish with (2 big enabled, 4 little, default i/o scheduler)

Geekbench 3, single core = 603, 1800ish with (0 big enabled, 4 little, deadline i/o scheduler)

Not tested the battery life yet, but I'd imagine it would be better.
