Ok well I took the plunge and loaded #2. All seems to have worked fine quadrants are marginally better mid 900s to high 900's, I dont know if this is using my sdcard or not but time for work so we will see how this new kernel goes for battery life. Will report back later.
[Vibrant Android Development] rpesigan6:
Can this be flashed right over the implemented king kernel #1 in the bionix rom?
[Vibrant Android Development] Jaynrb:
I flashed kernel 2 and so far its changed my battery issue. Before i had flashed it the battery was reading 115 degrees F and now its sticking at 94.

here are some of my benchmarks with the new Kernel
[Vibrant Android Development] chadti99:
A2DP still sucks with kernel #2. Would be nice to know what the bluetooth patches do, I'm not sure that King even knows.
[Vibrant Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Speedy lag fix lol. Some details about what it is doing instead of a fancy name might be nice.
[Vibrant Android Development] demo23019:
I have the first kernel and is great, want to try 2nd

But before I do how would you go about remove this lagfix if not wanted?

Also am i understanding this correctly, sorry kernel noob.. is the lagfix part of the kernel and if i reverting back to stock kernel this lagfix will be gone?

Think its the one from Frankin-Twiz rom but im not sure

Go back one page in this thread, kingklick posted this

yea.. some information on what the lagfix does, and what interferences it may cause would be appreciated. I like others here like to know what exactly things do so they can be reverted if need be.
[Vibrant Android Development] PSP_Hacker:
Question, is HIGHMEM in this kernel? I thought that only 2.6.32 could have that, but someone told me that Samsung already inplemented it in their kernel which is 2.6.29.

So is it in the stock kernel, this kernel, both, or not at all?
[Vibrant Android Development] RobBull69:
Was playing with the new kernel on Fwiz and got random freezes. Reverted back to the first kernel and everything is fine. I was using conservative settings and had the freezing issues when overclocking and using stock settings.
[Vibrant Android Development] Novek:
So... by saying it has the lag fix implented... How do we turn it on? Or is this a lagfixthat doesn't show on quadrant?

Thanks for the batterylife however!
[Vibrant Android Development] rUsTyRuSs:
I can verify that it does nothing if a fix is already implemented. Flashed over version 1 with vibrant 9 and Eugene's lag fix. No change in my partition or /data. Great work!

JI2 firmware

Thank you for your hardwork King. Was wondering if you had a timeline for a new kernel for the JI2 firmware. Looking forward to better battery life. Thank you again.:D
[Vibrant Android Development] rUsTyRuSs:
I would think most devs are waiting for an official release before tailoring kernels and roms to them. It would suck to put in work and have it negated a week later with an official release :-P
[Vibrant Android Development] NickAtNite:
I too am curious to know what the speedy lag fix really does.
[Vibrant Android Development] demo23019:

I was verifying the link in your og post where kingklick was saying it won't do anything if a lagfix is already installed. Sorry about that.

Not going to happen until Samsung provides the sources for the new kernel. Samsung probably won't provide the sources to the new kernel until "after" the official release.
[Vibrant Android Development] Silrocco:
It's pretty direct as far as just rebooting into ClockworkMod recovery and choose form SD install; NO wiping is required.

Had no issures at all with my phone.

Did you install the first Kernel version first and then the version 2?
[Vibrant Android Development] Silrocco:
My thoughts exactly. I did not see any improvement in Quadrant, my results are just slightly above Galaxy S base.

Do we have to enable it through adb shell?
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Yes, I tried to install the first before. They both had this same issue :confused:

Good luck.

Yeah, I was using the Voodoo lag fix, I disabled it though and made sure I disabled it...

I am running bionix 1.3. I used tatuyama lag fix based off ryanza lag fix prior, before I moved up to bionix. don't if or how to remove that lagfix if need be, I'm starting to think thats it because no other lag fix will run, voodoo or king

[Vibrant Android Development] kingklick:
I can look into that but I am failing to see what the point of that would be? :(
[Vibrant Android Development] kingklick:
just flash bionix rom, then my kernel :)
[Vibrant Android Development] YepMan68:
--so If I have flashed the bionix rom with your kernel already in it, I should flash the plain rom and then flash your updated kernel? just asking cause I flashed your updated #2 kernel on top of the bionix + KK#1 and nothing new seems to have happened, especially in regard to the lag fix.

-thanks for any thoughts.

"This should enable us to load a custom bootanimation from /system/media or /data/local.

I know it's not much, but hey."

Seriously not a huge issue I know, but there are a lot of us that want to be able to use and create our own bootanimations. And, it works I mean...

adb shell

su

/system/bin/bootanimation(2nd)

will play the regular scrolling ANDROID text and if you

adb shell

su

cd /system/bin/

mv playlogos1 playlogosbkp

cp bootanimation2nd playlogos1

it will play a bit of it at start up of phone but i don't believe it is being passed the proper parameters which doing what i asked should do.

it is small, but the fix should be easy, you include initramfs into your kernel.img and thusly zImage yea? Also koush found a way to flash zImage without redbend might want to check into it.

I've heard there is a way to fix when you try to flash over voodoo. It involves froyo and stock or something? Can someone direct me to the appropriate thread, been searching to no avail.

Edit: found it. Its the bionix 1.3 thread in the original instructions..
[Vibrant Android Development] Fazeh:
I flashed Frankin-Twiz and then flashed your kernel #2 and my quadrant score is still around 901. I'm sure it installed correctly since in quadrant's system info it shows my max cpu at 1200 instead of 1000 without kernel #2. Was there anything else that I should do to bump my quadrant score up?

edit: I disabled voodoo lagfix and flashed a Frankin-Twiz and kernel #2. I used setcpu to 1200 mhz and quadrant went up to 986.
[Vibrant Android Development] tsnow247:
While running this with frankin twiz 3 and eugene's lag fix my phone froze up, so I powered down. (held the power button till it powered down.)

Houston, we have a problem!

KingKlick

I had your #1 kernel installed yesterday and downloaded SetCPU. Upped the CPU to 1200. Worked fine, got :

Linpack off 8.9 constantly and

Quadrant score of 2640!.....

Great, I love it. Thank you!

So, with SETSPU installed I noticed that you released kernel #2 and that promise even better results, so I download and installed it.

WOW.!!!! Now when I activate SetCPU guess what, the max I can get it 600! and cannot make MAX more...I'm stuck on 600!

WTF!

My Linpack went down to 3.6 and my

Quadrant score down to 1197.

These are fine, but my biggest concern is SETCPU!

Besides that, I cannot send emails with Google app now. It just hungs up.

I have not tried the GPS response, since I'm currently indoors - will check on that and if it sucks, will report back.

I have removed SetCPU, rebooted and my Linpack score is back to 6.9 and Quadrant up to 2023.

So I re-installed SetCPU, and now I can set the CPU again to 1200...What's going on?

Linpack is back to 8.64 and Quadrant to 2171.

Both readings are worse than with Kernel #1- or is it the fact that SetCPU was messed up and active while I installed Kernel #2.

Ideas?

I think I'm going back to Kernel #1 and if that still does not work, have to backout these Kernel updates......

What's going on, or is it just me? Any suggestions?

All that I can think of is not to install this kernel upgrade with SetCPU set to 1200!....

Thanks

Bert
[Vibrant Android Development] floepie:
What is this tantalizing "speedy king lag fix" all about? Does it format the data partition to ext4 a la voodoo? Thanks...
[Vibrant Android Development] kingklick:
nope ;)

it is all in the governor code :)

Good to see it's working out well!
[Vibrant Android Development] hydrogenman:
I'm having to ditch this kernel and go back to stock

has run well for me (still on #1) but there's some kind of bug with this kernel that causes my phone to be unable to go into sleep mode until rebooted

basically, it seems to happen for when I set the alarm...I don't think it went off, woke up about 8 min after I had it set and the screen was on...tried turning it off, it wouldn't turn off.

This of course answered my question about what happened the previous morning when I didn't wake up for work and my phone was dead when I did wake up.

Some kind of bug with the alarm clock and the screen not wanting to goto sleep after set times
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
The speed is faster overall when it is run without a lagfix, 765 -> 945 Quadrant, however, when I applied the RyanZA lagfix, the results were the same as before the kernel upgrade, around a 2400. I was expecting about a +200 increase, being in the 2600+ range. Any ideas?

EDIT: Forgot to enable deadline scheduler, much better now. :D Good stuff! I am now scoring 2600+, around what I thought. Thanks!

EDIT: Battery life seems MUCH, MUCHO, better. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] hydrogenman:
god, I never quite understand people's fascination with ****ing quadrant #'s

seriously

the phone felt snappier to me overclocked...that's all that really mattered, not some #

a human couldn't tell the difference between a 2000 quadrant phone and a 2400 quadrant phone if they tried
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
Well, maybe you don't see a difference, I do. And while it may not matter that much with Eclair, it will make a difference on Froyo. Froyo takes advantage of the GPU a lot more. Thanks for your opinion though. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] djgromit:
Hey all,

I've read the entire thread, and also searched just to be sure I didn't miss anything, but I haven't seen any references to JAC's OCv4 kernel...

That's the last thing that I've put on my vibrant, but I want to make sure it won't cause problems like the Voodoo kernel...

Can I just flash this over OCv4? Sounds like I wouldn't be using my ext4 partition anymore, which is fine, so if I just back up all my data and restore it, this should all work, right?

I'm just running the stock build anyway, so I don't think there should be any conflict there...

thanks...
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
Just undo the lag-fix, flash the new kernel and reboot. voila, data in tac and new kernel flashed. Make sure to Nandroid first. I am paranoid of the the backups, so I always undo a lag fix, then backup, once that is done, then I put the lag fix back. Bad experiences the first time around. I am using RyanZA's OCLF from the market and it works just fine with version 2 of this kernel. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] Gr8gorilla:
@Kingklick, does this Speedy King lagfix fix the issue of the media scanner taking forever to finish on a fresh boot? I would say we are at over 30 seconds for media scanner at least. Can you tell me what kind of difference this makes?

Also what is your lagfix? Is it loop file mounted to buffer IO like the ryanza fix or is it something else? Is it a trick that boosts quadrant scores like what Cyanogen did to prove how useless quadrant scores can be?

Please clarify, I would like to know how it will interact with things like voodoo and other things I may install on my phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] FRuiTBoOT:
Flashed! Nice work, runs great so far.
[Vibrant Android Development] Thegreat520:
so flashed this and my phone freezes for some reason like it will work for about 10 minutes then just freez i have to pull out the battery to get it back
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
If you are running SetCPU, try disabling the screen profiles. Everything else should be good. Of course, you could have a h/w locked Vibrant. :p
[Vibrant Android Development] Thegreat520:
How do I know if I got a hardware locked phone is there anything to test
[Vibrant Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Looking at the source changes made to his latest kernel the only Governor changes are to match the up/down threshold in the conservative governor to 60/40 instead of 70/30.

It sounds a way to say you have a lag fix when technically all the up/down threshold changes could then be called lag-fix's which clearly isnt the case.

GPL requires he release it if it is anything different than the conservative changes he made so it will have to come out sooner or later.

A few MODS agree with this as well as its not nice to "trick" end-users into getting something that they aren't.
[Vibrant Android Development] rogerchew:
hey guys, is cell standby supposed to now take up the majority of our battery life after flashing this kernel?

[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
so what's the best lagfix to use with this? The one included in the Vibrant multi tool didn't seem to work.
[Vibrant Android Development] kingklick:
JAC ma boy what has happened to you?

You cry 3 times as much as you did when you were 2 years younger on the G1 scene. :confused:

Also -

Do the mods also think that you formatting the storage to an EXT filesystem and tagging that a lag fix because you see a bigger number in quadrant a trick? Because I think ramping the CPU speed up or down depending on its use is a bit more of a "fix" for lag then simply making a filesystem EXT4 :p

And how are you so into the GPL now when you didn't post ONE of your g1 kernels source code. Or your vibrant up until about a week ago for that matter :p

One more thing.

Approximately how much time a day do you spend: a. studying my code just to criticize it, as opposed to ACTUALLY doing SOMETHING b. Crying to MODs about someone who is doing absolutely nothing wrong...... PLEASE DISCONTINUE YOUR IMMATURE TROLLING/SPAMMING of my threads. I am sure even these mods who apparently you talk to all day do not approve of your childish behavior.

Thank you
[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
and is this good?
[Vibrant Android Development] zimphishmonger:
This wouldnt be an issue if you had just said "Tweaked cpu up\down intervals to...." instead of something stupid like "Speedy king lag fix". He might not be so critical if you used less "catchphrase-esque" change logs and actually listed what YOU did to the kernel.

I appreciate anyone who is working to develop for the Galaxy S :D, but I agree to an extent, your changelogs and descriptions seem designed to confuse less-knowledgeable users and it ends up pissing off those who know their stuff. The post above mine is a perfect example of a user who has been mislead by your changelog, as he is posting a Linpack score to measure if the "lagfix" is working (and this is not the above mentioned poster's fault).

PS: Voodoo is all @supercurio's creation, JAC just integrated it into his kernel. The "lag" most users are referring to has nothing to do with cpu intervals or lack of cpu speed and all to do w/ Samsung's horrible RFS filesystem.

#Imjustsaying
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
So how long is this pissing contest gonna last?

Because if this is simply a matter of "Tomatoe" "Tomatoh", I vote that we move on :)
[Vibrant Android Development] kingklick:
OOO I get it... Catchy... like "VOODOO LAG FIX" And and Compiled with optimizations for the optimizations (I think I saw the word "optimized" like 15 times in that OP)

Cmon man don't be a cynic like that, you and me both know it doesn't matter what I call it, he is going to cry no matter what.

Did you just use the phrase "who know their stuff" ....?

I hope you aren't refering to the person who hasn't commited one piece of changed code to "their github," but continues to preach the GPL like a christian praying while doing drugs

cheers ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Im being completely objective, Im not trying to be a cynic. I agree "voodoo" lagfix is the EXACT same thing, but at least curio explains what is happening on the Voodoo website. Im POSITIVE people wouldnt give you so much trouble if you described your "lagfix" as it was, tweaking the cpu intervals. Thats all i ask.

When Im referring to those "who know their stuff", I am not referring to any one person or group, just in general to people who understand linux, development, compilation, android, etc.

Im not here to talk about the GPL or any of that, I would just like to see you describe your updates as if they were going to be read by people who understand them. I wouldnt even care if you said "Speedy King Lag Fix - tweaked cpu INSTEAD of messing with /data", as you describe what you are doing
[Vibrant Android Development] kingklick:
I understand IN A WAY what you are saying now :)

not attacking you AT ALL by the way
[Vibrant Android Development] djquick:
What about "potatoe" "potatoh" :p
[Vibrant Android Development] zimphishmonger:
I would also like you to know that I am not attacking you at all either. Im personally tired of the drama & bs, so everyone gets treated w/ respect.

I am just trying to bring my thoughts to your attention, and I think those simple changes will make a lot of difference in the way certain people interact with you :)

A continuation of what was started above, I would just appreciate if you would use more technically accurate description for your changes, even if you decide to use a "catchphrase" for that feature.

Although I

personally

think most of the Galaxy S lag is due to the idiotic RFS file system, it is a perfectly valid conclusion that tweaking cpu settings may help alleviate some of that lag. I just would like to know that, so I can accurately compare it to another method, say one that messes around with /data. Although this may not make a difference to the "average" user, it certainly does to myself, and others, im sure.

Thanks for hearing me out
[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
looks pretty decent to me.

But then again what do I know. I'm simply asking for intelligent input in the correct thread in a respectful manner. However this thread now seems to be populated by a group of basement dwellers who are intent on measuring out the millimeters of their e-peeners.
[Vibrant Android Development] zimphishmonger:
That's normal for a stock 1Ghz Vibrant, but if you are overclocking it should be closer to ~9. YOu should also try running it a few times to see if you get differing numbers, as sometimes it takes a second for the CPU to clock up
[Vibrant Android Development] rudeguy:
thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] j0hnZ:
I just wish people would use the advanced quadrant so we can see where the speed is, like I did in this thread.
