Genius, can we push this to 1.6 ghz somehow? Or does that need to be for the DI07 kernal?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
I haven't looked into it. I'm not sure we can push them that high, but if I'd love to be wrong!

The stock kernel has voltage support up to 1.5V, so I know I have room to crank it higher to support those freqs if I have to.

I'll look into it, I'm studying right now, but I will def. look into it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Hero_Over:
Sorry I just thought it was moraly correct to say whose code you stole when you are making money off of it especially when you get called out on it and then lie. And I know tons of people steal your stuff. But I always give credit. Sorry for all this drama but I Will admit I might sound like a baby but what is unfair is unfair. And that was unfair.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jbadboy2007:
Geniusdog adb is part of sdk tools and the adt plugin which i have all of that. but thanks for the commands to remove the old root.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Hero_Over:
its not on xda for a reason. Xda will make me release source. And your morales will make you steal it. But this is over. Sorry for blowing this up but I think we all now know that you took my code although your words will never reflect it because you love your fame off of my code.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
Exactly. XDA will make you release the source that you are LEGALLY required to. Even after the mods tell you to stop you continue posting about how sorry you are trying to make yourself seem better. I give credit to everyone. If all this was readily available for Epic do you think I woulda made this? Exactly. This wasn't there for Epic, so I filled the void. Deal with it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] johnyardavid:
Can someone either explain how to apply a patch, or at least quote the link to an explanation on here? I would like to apply the bfq update. Thank you. BTW Geniusdog, very nice Kernel. It runs smooth on my phone and there is a definite improvement on tasks. Thank you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jbadboy2007:
Sorry but the whole concept behind open source is that anyone can use your code and make it better or modify how they want to. Also if you have not released your code how was he suppose to steal it. Obviously he is GENIUS LOL
[Epic 4G Android Development] id_twin:
Does this mean we no longer need to use setcpu to scale speed, or is it still necessary?

Love this kernel, can't wait to try batter life tomorrow to see improvements. THANKS!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Whosdaman:
Genius, don't worry about hero, we have been debating of this issue for a few days now haha....

Anyways, I remeber seeing somewhere that the Droid, or DroidX was cranked up to 1.8 GHZ??? And I mean if it can do it, then I think for sure any of the Galaxy devices can. We just need to get someone who is a pro at coding android kernels...

In fact, I know a few...let me see if I can get in touch with them
[Epic 4G Android Development] Hero_Over:
Ok well atleast give king credit because you just admitted you got it from him. Which if you can read you will see me as the author. And gpl states that to be LEGAL you must release source within 30 days or remove it unless the code is modified and a new image is made public. Well I change my code all day so LEGALLY I don't have to give you anything
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
The OMAP3 series is insanely overclockable. I'm not sure if that applies here. Its a simple enough change to make it work if it can support it, I just don't have time to build a new kernel right now. I'll check later
[Epic 4G Android Development] blkr00t:
Arguments aside...this kernel is fantastic...I've gotten consistently awesome benchmarks with this kernel and the AOSP Rom..

Quadrant

Linpack

ROM / Kernel
[Epic 4G Android Development] id_twin:
Can someone post a before and after screen shot of the difference the voodoo makes on our phones. I see on their page they have an example, I just really can't notice much of a difference.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Hero_Over:
ok. download conservative.zip attached to his OP. then look at this link. http://github.com/kingklick/kk-vibrant-kernel/commit/b22a49e9f19b92eaabf18c59aef6d5a65be171fa

do you see one difference from his code and the code me and king have been using for 2 weeks (although he didnt commit it instantly)

and i find it really weird you give credit to (@KingKlick92 for a baseline of safe values for voltages from his Vibrant kernel,) hmm what else was in his vibrant kernel. oh yeah my conservative governor tweaks. you are the worst liar i have ever seen.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Whosdaman:
No problem, don't worry about it. Let's finish working on 1.2 / 1.4 OC first and make it stable and work to its best potential before we go any farther
[Epic 4G Android Development] casual864:
Keep up the great work. This kernel is amazing. It's the best kernel for the Epic. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Whosdaman:
Update: nullghost is actually rebuilding the entire kernel for us.

http://github.com/nullghost/epic-kernel

I wonder what he is up to ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Captainkrtek:
Keep it on track guys
[Epic 4G Android Development] id_twin:
I can't manage a Quadrant higher than 965 on this kernel, and a Linpack higher than 9.5x. Not complaining by no means though :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] dalvarez7:
Did you OC?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ragnarokx:
This kernel is scary fast! Nice work. And is it my imagination or does the phone boot faster (don't even know if the kernel is related to boot speed)?
[Epic 4G Android Development] blkr00t:
What ROM are you running? I have found that the AOSP ROM is the fastest ROM with this kernel in my opinion.

I haven't run ThaBoss Rom long enough though, I'm going to reflash it and give it another good shot....With Genious old kernel, I got good marks with ThaBoss v.1

Another really slick Rom and really fast is the Baked one...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ericizzy1:
if i use setcpu with this kernel and set it to on demand, will it work fine? thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] tricex2:
works fine for me haven't had an issue yet w/ondemand and start on boot settings.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ragnarokx:
That's my setup + this kernel, no problems so far.
[Epic 4G Android Development] id_twin:
Okay, just flashed Andromeda kernel to test difference. In both test was running stock TW, SETCPU set with OnDemand preference.

Andromeda: First 2 pictures show this.

Linpack Score: 7.842

Quadrant Score: 906

MixUp: Last 2 pictures show this.

Linpack Score: 9.542

Quadrant Score: 965

As well I've included SS of my home screen to represent with and without voodoo. Both images appear to be the same quality, however this could be the ShootMe app that takes the screen shots. I'm not sure.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
Just had an issue with the new update. I was dowloading a file on the phone. Someone called and the phone started lagging like crazy. I was unable to take call. I finally got back to the homescreen and loaded setcpu and it was at 100mhz. Redetected and it still stuck at 100mhz. I normally just run 1200 on performance. I set performance and moved it back to 1200. Exited setcpu and 30seconds later it went right back to 100. I just rebooted and its back to normal. It never did this on the older kernel.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
I just flashed this kernal running androidmeda rom and blue minamalist theme. So far so good. I noticed the difference with voodoo right of the bat. I didn't think it would make that much of a difference but it did. I was using the fluff kernal and this is a huge step up from there. We will see in a couple days tho if its still up and running. I got a 970 in quadrent with my current setup.........I'm afraid to play with setcpu tho. Everytime I set up a profie for screen off at 200mhz I can't wake up. I haven't tried with this kernel tho. Anyone wanna be the guinepig? Untill then ill leave it the way it is except for having it set at 1.2ghz for the max
[Epic 4G Android Development] ragnarokx:
Damn just happened to me too. I was just using the web browser, phone slowed to a crawl. Checked SetCPU and it was at 100MHz. What was weird was the max in SetCPU was around 650MHz. Rebooted, went back into SetCPU and I was able to change it to 1200MHz. And SetCPU is randomly unable to auto-detect frequencies.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dalvarez7:
Sorry for the stupid question, but where could i find the Blue Minamalist theme?
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Its very nice.......

[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
A screenshot isn't going to show anything since it's actually the way the screen displays things.

Turn it all the way up to 100% brightness, then back down. You'll see a huge difference in the hue of things as long as you aren't on a totally black screen. Use the power control widget to change it from the desktop and as you cycle thru you'll see it, promise ;)

EDIT: And as for the frequency issues. Are you both running the same ROM? What governor are you using? Has it happened more than once? Can you repeat it? Sorry for the question overload lol, but I need to know these things if I'm to see if its my fault or not.

Also, I think for my next version I'll add in netfilter support and RNDIS support for Wired Tether. Thought I had included it in my config this time but I guess I forgot :o
[Epic 4G Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
I am on stock rom. Using performance governor. 1200/1200
[Epic 4G Android Development] ragnarokx:
Baked Snack 1.0, performance, happened twice, not able to repeat it. I've switched to conservative to see if that stops the problem.

Edit: I just tried turning the brightness up to 100% and wow! This is horrible. Now I'm limited to kernels that incorporate voodoo cause I don't think I can go back to the stock blue-tint.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Whosdaman:
Ty for going to put in wired tether, also the apps2sd guy is working on making a script for samsung epic as we speak.

Also Genius, no one ever answered me on the other thread, do you know how to get USB Mass Storage working in clockwork recovery?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
The performance governor definitely seems to be the common denominator here. I would advise against using it. I've heard reports SGS phones are unstable on anyting but conservative. Were probly lucky to use ondemand without issues. If you really want that performance use ondemand..

As for usb mount in recovery.. no idea. I've never messed with recoveries you'll have to talk to koush. Hit me up when you get the A2SD script
[Epic 4G Android Development] talliwackr:
Well, whatever reasons my phone was locking up on graphic-intense apps with the last kernal seem to be fixed with this new one. Perhaps I didn't get stuck with a dud CPU.

Cheers!
[Epic 4G Android Development] volkly:
Hey Genius,

Is it possible to just flash voodoo with any kernel when you download the standalone voodoocolor.zip.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mykenyc:
There is def something with the new roms was on the phone talking to someone and it keeps hanging up on them. So i tested a called my voicemail hung up on my voicemail too.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ericizzy1:
reverted back to 730 version. too much lag with new kernel
[Epic 4G Android Development] johnyardavid:
does this kernel have the bfq.patch and the cpu and conservative profile changes in it already or do we need to combine them? i apologize, i am trying to learn some programming and I am starting from square 1 so any help is greatly appreciated. thank you
[Epic 4G Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
Is anyone else who updated that has screen brightness set to automatic noticing the screen flicker when unlocking the phone? Seems the brightness can't make its mind up.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
I take it you didn't read the article on voodoo. Right now its only optimized for the highest setting when the screen unlocks its a fading action. So if the screen is optimized for the brightest setting don't you think there would be a problem with a face affect.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
I didn't read the article because i can't click the link for some reason using tapatalk
[Epic 4G Android Development] MILcityBoi:
Does anyone know if it's okay to add the "Blue Minimalist" theme to this kernal? I can't see where or if it says it's Deodexed.
[Epic 4G Android Development] amdille:
Battery life is still horrible. *CRY*
[Epic 4G Android Development] crake001:
Themes don't effect kernels and kernels don't effect themes. You just want to make sure the ROM you are using has a deodexed system.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MILcityBoi:
Okay, well I only am running stock except for the mixup kernal so I guess its a no go until I add a Rom to my phone. Thanks for the reply and help.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
First run or TWO will drain the BATTERY FAST. AFter that it should settle in. Whenever I run a new kernel I DELETE battery STATs. To let the new kernel learn
[Epic 4G Android Development] 1999TL:
This update solves a problem with Roam Control 1.2 I was having
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
Thats a good idea! Do you use the option in Clockwork or do you do it manually?
[Epic 4G Android Development] 1999TL:
Where do you go to delete the battery stats?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ragnarokx:
I'm happy to report since I changed the governor to Conservative the CPU speed has not changed on its own. However SetCPU still randomly reports incorrect speeds. I just went in it and it said I was set to 1200max/100min at the top, but the scale to adjust the speeds below said I was set to 100max/100min. I exited out and restarted SetCPU and the readings became correct. I wonder why this is?
[Epic 4G Android Development] blkr00t:
I am getting lots of fc after running this kernal successfully on aosp rom. Fc started after I started to sync my facebook contacts. Has anyone else seen this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
This seems to be working great for me even without SetCPU installed. OS Monitor shows that it's scaling properly at conservative and I'm getting Lipack scores of 9.5-9.7 average and Quadrant is getting 1020-1070 average. Nice!
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
When my phone ain't lagging my phone is fast as lighting. Im having a bad lag issue. Idk if its cause setcpu but all I did was change the max frequency. I also wonder if its just that this kernal don't play nice with the rom. Im running the andromeda rom with the bqlue minamalist theme. Im debating if I should go back to the fluff kernal that andromeda played do nice with or try a different rom. Besides the lag issue I like the voodoo, speed when not lagging and the battery life had improved
[Epic 4G Android Development] PlankLongBeard:
Question...

Quick question.. I haven't flashed this since I am technically on a stock rooted rom.. OC to 1.2 with Hero's Kernal :)

I would like to change, but, the options in the OP are kind of overwhelming lol.. :p So, the Mixup of Yesterday 9/26 contains all the separate patches? Or as described they're to be applied as patches. ;) Thx
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
Im fairly certain he just posted patches of individual ports he made. So incase you want to use them for a custom application.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mykenyc:
So am i the only one who was getting dropped calls on the voodoo one?
[Epic 4G Android Development] PlankLongBeard:
Thanks.. So i just have to flash the Mixup... Nice.. :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] 1999TL:
OH DAMN. I'm getting weird call behavior now too. Just got a dropped call and t looked like my phone restarted, but all I did was unlock it. When I unlocked it the media scanner was running.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mykenyc:
Yea last night was talking to a lady friend, 2,3, or even 4 minutes into the convo it would just hang up. The funny part is, i was blaming her cause she has a dumb phone, then she called via her house phone, calls hung up again, i reflashed my device and now no dropped calls.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sacwoo:
So just so I am not confused do I need to install all the zip files included or are those each different flavors of the kernal?

I understand they do different things but I am not sure if I load multiple ones does it overwrite the previous patch or are they all used together?

thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
I had 3 calls this morning by the same person and was good. Later on someone else called me and I couldn't awnser. I called him and as soon as he answers I drop the call. I blamed it on him and his boost mobile phone. He called back using his house phone and all was good
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
All patches are preinstalled on the kernal. As mentioned above the separate patches are for a custom application if other devs wanna include them in there build
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
Well I disabled juice defender to dl a few roms using my phone. Since then u haven't had any lag issues. I'll run my current set up the rest of the night into 2moro and see what the outcome is
[Epic 4G Android Development] PlankLongBeard:
Well, i installed a few minutes ago (20) and yup, this is a very smooth ride. I mean the board seems more responsive :-) Where ppl speak bout lag, i dunno... ;-)

The best kernel out for literally the best android device hands down! Cmon, really, what's better than our gpu and CPU, the Galaxy S2... O:-)

Sent From The Moon... :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] wonderhunt:
All I can say is you have my up-most respect; how many ppl out there will ever thought about incorporate voodoo color to enhance the screen? you know you stuff! This kernel IS the best out there and I have used it with other ROMs with no problem what so ever. Great job!

If you can only let it project 3d image....:D
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
Works like a charm with Baked Snack 1.0. Keep up the good work, voodoo looks awesome btw. Any chance you could add diffferent lock screens?
[Epic 4G Android Development] drjonesok:
Have DI07 installed, rooted, and clockwork mod. Did a backup then installed noobnls andromeda 1.0.3, that worked fine.

Then installed MixUp w/ voodoo and it works great. 9.5-9.7 Mflops. Quadrant scores just over 1000. Neocore is 55.4(same as old). Thank you Geniusdog254 !
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
Battery life is insane. 25.4 hours still have 10% heavy use.... VD kernel boss rom
[Epic 4G Android Development] aestil:
This may have been asked already but I'm not able to find what I'm looking for. If I just want the Project Voodoo lag fix and color fix, where would I go to install just that?

At their website it doesn't have the Epic 4G as a supported device yet.
[Epic 4G Android Development] odub303:
Does the stock DI07 tar file have the stuff you need to update this kernel to a DI07 base?
[Epic 4G Android Development] kaokollaa:
i have aosp magic 0.2 rom and i install the voodoo kernel and i lost my root acces what can i do now?>
[Epic 4G Android Development] siptang:
I'm about to try out this kernel.

mixup-20100926-311-voodoo.zip is the one shot kill file to install if i wanted to mess around with the voodoo along with everything that mixup kernel offers right?

Also do I have to use setcpu to set the clock speed or is it already set?

Thanks for the kernel.

Edit :

Looks like I just need to install that zip file.

Am getting 1015 on quadrant and 9.81 mflops on linpack. (I double did linpack and it varies. Lowest one i got was 9.009 to 9.81) I'm thinking that over clock is already set or is it not?

I also notice random crashes where I have to take out the battery.
[Epic 4G Android Development] troyolson92:
I have running this voodo kernal since released without any issues. Condistant quad scores of 980-1075.

Good job genious and thank you. Can't wait for final voodoo tweaks. We need a good fast stable bare skinned rom with this. Battery tweaks from posts and the ext file system working.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
Yeah the patches are just for other devs who want to integrate it into their kernels as required by the GPL.

The kernel is overclocked up to 1.2Ghz by default. SetCPU is only needed if you want to use a scale other than conservative 100mhz-1.2ghz.

Also, I will update the OP with a way to remove the old root method that breaks things with this kernel. It's not my fault. Ask your ROM dev to remove the old JoeyKrim root exploit from their ROM and all will be good. There is also one tiny issue with the SU binary I'm using, that it doesn't like the -c operator wireless tether uses. For that I will try and include one that works. Also coming is RDNIS support & an even lower overclock if it ends up being stable

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys! I will be without a phone for this next week, but I will still do whatever I can to keep updating this without it. Big thanks to @rjmjr69 for doing all my testing for me!
[Epic 4G Android Development] siptang:
Hey buddy,

Thanks for the quick response.

One thing though... I'm on stock while having these issues T__T;

Now my phone freezes every 5 secs and I have even tried wiping the phone at least 10 times.... but your kernel remains... what do i do? I also tried to do a recovery via clockwork mod but still no success.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
Flash your ROM back, a wipe won't clear a kernel, but flashing the ROM will
[Epic 4G Android Development] siptang:
Crap... I hope I didn't delete some roms in the sd card... T_T

I think I used noobnl's root thing. How do I make sure that I'm not on joeykrim's root method? if so, do you know the way around this? Sorry just read the op but it's been a month and I have flashed and done so many things I honestly do not know which method I used... T_T

So I just go to command and type adb and follow the steps from the original post right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ericizzy1:
how do i flash back to stock kernel? thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] odub303:
Does this mean no update to the DI07 kernel as a base for a while? :(...Love your kernel man, it's the shizzle.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
If you rooted that long ago, I'm sure you have the JoeyKrim root. The easiest way to check is to open a shell and cd to /system/bin. If jk-su exists, or playlogo-orig does, then you have the JoeyKrim root. Run those steps & root will be fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] siptang:
Sorry, I'm a complete linux noob and don't understand this...

I have windows 7 x64. How do I do this? I'm thinking that this is similar to command prompt...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
Alright yes a shell is a command prompt, but do you have ADB set up? If not, there are some good guides on the internet for it.

If you do, then just go ahead and run the commands in the first post. Make sure you try to "rm /system/bin/jk-su" first or else you'll break the playlogo script. If it returns a not found error, stop there. If it doesn't return anything then continue the rest of the commands.
[Epic 4G Android Development] siptang:
If I were to download different rom, let's say boss v2 with your kernel inside. Would it fix all this? ;) I'm feeling lazy and wanted to have a easy way out if not I guess I have to brew some coffee lol.

I have a feeling that it's not the case and started downloading android sdk T_T
[Epic 4G Android Development] Geniusdog254:
Downloading either version of Tha Boss would fix this issue, since I worked with Kyle closely for this ROM/Kernel combo. He knew to remove the JoeyKrim root ;)

EDIT: By either version I mean with or without Touchwiz. it's only fixed with v.2 or above. No need to download the SDK, although you may still want to, I'm sure it'll come in handy eventually
[Epic 4G Android Development] siptang:
gotcha.

Will try it then thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] dalvarez7:
I have a file called joeykrim-root.sh in my /system/bin folder. Do we need to do anything with that file or is it okay to keep?
