[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tokyogtr:
Works if I disable Media Scanner

I just flash 4_4_5FIX and also had previously installed "Rescan Media Root" which disables the startup media scanner. Unbelievably the phone now boots up fine, and is running absolutely fine at 1.2ghz! i'm now going to try different ghz and see what happens but so far looks like media scanner causing the problems.

EDIT: 1.2ghz and angry birds hung within 1 min. now trying 1.12ghz

EDIT2: 1.12ghz fine with angry birds. trying 1.2 again as reboot seemed to do something to the settings.

EDIT3: 1.2ghz hung again in angry birds after 1 min.

so boot up seems to now not be a problem with media scanner disabled, but actually using 1.2ghz with this kernel and angry birds causing a crash. 1.12 is ok though. but, with ya-ok 1.2ghz works absolutely fine with 1.2ghz. could this all be down to UVing?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
it should freeze even more when you UV.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mazroui:
i would recommend starting with a fresh flash when it comes to kernals, Backup all you got, flash a fresh copy of 2.1 with the pit file followed by latest 2.2 and than apply the kernal. after that test the kernals stability with and without the SD and try them 1 step at a time. from 1.2 and up. i find this way is the safest way to approach/test the phone as there r no other things done to the phone that could cause it to freeze/hang.

Root followed by SU then tweak app followed by stress test(angrybird-Video)/quadrant/linpack....... your choice here as to test the phones stability

i would stay away from overclock widget / setcpu as i have had problems with them and stability

you could keep testing kernals like i do, or simply stick with 4_3_4 as it was the latest stable kernal IMO and hope for the best
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tokyogtr:
valid points and i somewhat agree BUT how is it that YA-OK works perfectly and yet since 4.3 SO has so many fails? my view is that hotswapping kernels should not require a complete rebuild. i mean whats the point in that?

clearly something is being done in SO which works for some cpus and not for others. whereas ya-ok works so matter what hardware you're using.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Adevem:
I'm no good when it comes to developing but can we get a test version of 4.2 but with /system corruption fixed?

no new stuff on it like, the new step voltages and all that. very appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ccfiel:
I have been running 4.4, bln on with advance lag fix. Quadrant 2000. Its been stable to me so far. I did not use uv and set cpu just the default. Thanks developer. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mazroui:
hotswapping should be ok but to keep things straight and not blame anyone without proof. basically all im doing here is helping out the Dev test-out the kernal to solve the issues at hand and the best way to get to those nasty bugs is a complete rebuild like u said.

in this jump(4_3 to 4_4) a lot of changes took place in the kernal (im sure u read the changes), Does Ya-oK include all of the following (frequent updates like SO even)? [ remember the developer never said it was a final build kernal, he tested it and found it stable and posted it here for us to try out. does that mean it'll be stable for everyone? no , in the end its all work in progress, sure takes time but we'll eventually have an almost perfect kernal in the end.... ( no such thing as perfect for all i know lol) ].

o and btw flashing the preview as we speak :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] I9000bramgmail:
4.4.fix is stable?!

HI

I see alot about 4.3.4 being last stable but My 16gb version +32gb micro works just fine on 4.4.FIX and my dad's 8GB version with 8/16GB micro works just fine on 4.4.fix too... I set both device's up with docrom xwjpa v8 and ext4+ext2 no binds lagfix and all tweaks on...

can those who say 4.3.4 is last stable maybe try out 4.4.Fix?

-any versions above 4.4.FIX have issue's for me..

cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mazroui:
WOW, that SD scanning problem is gone for sure, booted three times to make sure with sd in ^_^

now to test stability
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tristecire:
disable ramzswap script can't work

Hé, Lastufo, your disable ramzswap script can't work :

/system/bn doesn't exist. i suppose you mean /system/bin

#!/system/bn/sh

swapoff /dev/block/ramzswap0

rmmod /lib/modules/ramzswap.ko

Thanks anyway for the very exciting adventure, follow your developments as soon as i can.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mazroui:
I did test it as soon as it was out and so did others, initial pic was instability and an SD freeze problem while media scanner is doing its job when the phone boots up or when after its boots and u insert the sd.

incase i didnt make my self clear, im testing the kernal on JPJPG 2.2 the official Middle Eastern froyo version, anybody who runs a diff version is more than welcomed to test and comment

o and laststufo , ur 446 preview is working magic. no freezing due to media scanner (its fixed ^_^), pretty stable for a first test, guess i'll run it for a day or two to get a better word on stability

keep up the good work

*pretty stable version*
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] I9000bramgmail:
Allright.. strange.. on docrom xwjpa v8 kernel 4.4.fix definetly works stable at 1.2ghz.. tested it on 3 different galaxy'S's... maybe it's not compatible with all roms somehow...

hmmm hardcore says in version 10H to have a better GPS..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cnn888:

Hi laststufo,

I tried the latest 4.4.5 kernel version on both JPO and the official italian RSJP5 ROM and I noticed that in both I have the camera not working and also the battery usage is very high compared to 4.3.x that was also higher compared to previous versions such as 4.2
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
Version 4_4_6_FIX is OUT !!!

Version 4_4_6_FIX(2010-12-06)(Full working 3G call and 720 video recording & playback)

- all bugs fixed

- better battery usage

- SDCard FAT check on start-up
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vanahaim:
Big thanks laststufo! Seems stable and smooth for first impression..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tokyogtr:
Finally... it works

I can confirm I' now having zero problems with 4_4_6FIX at 1.2ghz. playing youtube HQ, no problem, angry birds, no problem. i'm using xan's uv app rc2 and have not adjusted the UV settings at all. also using it to limit the phone to 1.2ghz.

well done laststufo, looks like you finally nailed it... that SD FAT check was a real winner!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] anoneemooz:
I'll take a look at this in a few days. I'm still testing another kernel for battery life and such. :) Thanks, lastufo! Keep up the great work!

Just a word of warning for those who had the hang/lockup problems and messed up their phones with a battery pull:

e4-all lagfix, according to hardcore's findings, is unsafe and does lead to such occurence. Thought it was kernel issues but I guess not. Here's his post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9628062&postcount=4732

He worked on a possible fix to this though. He just released test version a few minutes ago (some posts after this). Won't touch it yet though. I'll try your latest release first (which I will do in a few days). Perhaps you can incorporate a similar fix, though?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Pilotxxx:
great work!

Did you fixed the mount ro problem (on startup the kernel should make system partition RO if it was from some reason RW)?

For now only hardcore fixed this major problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tokyogtr:
mine starts up as R/O even if i set it as R/W in root explorer.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
Tonorrow i'll deploy the stable version if all is ok with this one! !

Good nigth! !!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
I deploy a fix version.. And e new script too to enable laptop mode to minimize battery usage..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Pilotxxx:
This is great news! Finaly can use this kernel! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tokyogtr:
i spoke too soon... just hung my phone in winamp... back to ya-ok until the next version i guess...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vanahaim:

Hanging on the SD card scanning, is still unstable .. JPE
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cnn888:
446 looks good, no hangs on media scanning and camera is working again. applied the laptop thingy and enabled the ramswap. i'll write again later after couple hours usage.

thanks, laststufo.

Edit: kernel runs smoothly on unlagfixed ddjp6 @ 1.2ghz for more than 6 hrs. No prob on media scanning, working camera. This is as long as u dont touch any cpu setting such as cpu govnernor etc (superpower, setcpu). Batt is good too. With games, browsing, etc i loss 30% over 6 hrs usage. Not bad at all.

Good work and thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Meneldor:
Same problem on JPO...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:

Hi , don't know if some else has the pb, but using voltage control when i want to put the settings on boot, the s_volt_Scheduler in etc/init.d is never created

Any ideas ? thx

PS:

there is a similar post in the voltage topic but with no answer at the moment...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vanahaim:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Meneldor:
Installed 4.4.6 using CWM, rebooted, my SGS hung while/after media scanning, I went to recovery again, "adb pull /res/pre-init.log", attached is the result. Hope it helps!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
it's clear

Trying to mount /dev/block/loop1 to /data

Run a filesystem check on it

/dev/block/loop1 contains a file system with errors, check forced.

/dev/block/loop1: Unattached inode 32161

/dev/block/loop1: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.

​

Remove data loop from lagfix---> advance when you are in recovery
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Meneldor:
Does it mean I couldn't use No RFS Overkill without binds as I did before? Because it is exactly it: ext2+ext4 and no binds. Should I remove the data loop, reboot normally, and then get back to data loop again? Or data loop should never be used from now on?

laststufo, you're a genie :). Maybe you have some recommendation for a better lagfix to use?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sKweezr:
Using 4.4.6-FIX with insanity 0.98

No freezes/reboots, only one FC in a couple of hours. Nothing serious.

Lagfix: JFS overkill. (jfs, jfs, jfs, ext2, ext2, ext2, data)

Maybe it works because insanity 0.98 has ramzswap disabled by default?

But.....

IMO Insanity 0.97 with SO kernel 4.2 feels smoother and -definitely- snappier.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
Version 4_4_7 is out !!!

Version 4_4_7 (2010-12-07)(Full working 3G call and 720 video recording & playback)

- OC stability fixes

- safe ro system mount at startup

- safe ext4 stl{} blocks mount at start up

- two new sysfs files in "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq" to change memory timings (AC_timing_data_registers,AC_timing_row_registers). Read datasheets and use at own risk.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vanahaim:
Wow, it was quick :) I´m going to try..

Thanks!

EDIT: I have been using this new build only for a while.. But seems stable and as always fast and smooth :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TweetyPeety:
I have to agree with you. I tried now nearly every Kernel because I wanted the perfect system. I worked so long with 4.2 and it was every time ok, even with Overkill JFS. But everybody was talking about the System Corruption Error and that 4.2 hasn't fix for that so I decided to switch.

I tried 4.4 and had always problems, Speedmod is ok but not as fast as 4.2 was, Ya-OK which I have right now is ok but way slower and no Bootanimation, Rasdeeps Kernel was for me a total flop because I got a lot of crashes. The last Kernel I haven't tried is the new Voodoo 5 but I know from times where Voodoo 5 was beta, it was good but not as fast as the rest of the Kernels.

So I hope laststufo can solve the problems that a lot of people have with 4.4 and I will give it again a try. But what I see right now that in a time of 2-3 days we receive 5-7 fixed versions; this doesn't sound really stable for me.

HOPE

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] I9000bramgmail:
I would say yes, but maybe it's better to wait till tomorrow to name it STABLE so we all have the time to try it first, and maybe somebody can find a bug? i'm looking for hang/freeze but my phone doesn't freeze or hang so far(: (@1.2ghz max)

good job(;

cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vanahaim:
As I wrote it myself :-D Doubtless it's the most stable one of 4.4.x branch. For me it's stable as rock now (HD youtube, stress test, multitaskin, web, software video decoding etc.), but for final conclusion I need min. one day of full use..

Worth the wait. Thank you l.

What exactly is this "laptop mode"? Do i have any disadvantages if it's enabled?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vanahaim:
So, I've noticed one crash with restart.. I haven't been doing nothing special - working with calendar app, music and beejiveIM in background..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] littlejax:
How to disable this mode?

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
It is not enable by default you have to install the script on the first page to enable it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TweetyPeety:
4.4.7 with overkill jfs crashes every time when it tries to mound my sd card. If I leave SD Card out everything is fine and runs really really smoothly, but as soon as I put the SD Card inside it crashes, EVERY TIME

trying to disable binds, and maybe ext 4
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vanahaim:
Second reboot in few hours.. :-( It can not be a coincidence..

It crashed when I opened google maps.

What a pity, this build is so smooth..

EDIT: Third one during adding new contact..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] manageri21:
for me too freeze
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] LockeOn:
laststufo is there any chance You could make your implementations incorporated in CM kernel?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TweetyPeety:
if you just put the binds off everything looks like it works. So I have JFS/JFS/JFS/ext2/ext2/ext2/false

and it mounts my sd card and is pretty smooth. I get 2200 Points on Quadrant, in respect to 2300 Points before, but still pretty smooth.

right now I will test it for more days but why is it that 4.2 was the best, smoothest, stabile kernel until now and after that so many people have problems with 4.4 ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
these seem to be UV problems.. If battery is low and UV is settings when the system is under stress it goes underpower and reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
Please people had SDCard problems could post /res/pre-init.log file ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
4_2 could not be the smoothest or the faster and i knew the reasons.

In the 4_4 branch i change a lot of code and parameters so i need some time to find the rigth values (es camera problems). I'm the only developer on this project.. and you are the testers if you want or not.:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
i don't know
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] manageri21:
I have JFS/JFS/JFS/ext2/ext2/ext2/false but i don't know why freeze. i will try again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
i use ext4/JFS/JFS/ext2/ext2/ext2/true

binds generate a lot of problems
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] manageri21:
i change right now and tell you after.

edit: flashed restart scan for media scan sdcard, after finish all the clock speed always 1200 and after freeze, if i put to 1000 mhz work do not freeze, why have you any idea?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
simply your phone do not support 1.2 ghz... please try 1.120 if work
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
tomorrow i'll deploy the stable 4_4_8 version with some fixes :

reduce voltage manager latency to remore last UV stability problems

minor smooth enhancement

GOOD NIGTH TO ALL !!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] manageri21:
i'am sure that my processor support 1.2 but the problem for me is, the speed stay always 1000 on conservative and at 1.2 freeze i think for hight temperature,

Edit: after i block widgetoverclock with titanium and restart the clockspeed is ok now on conservative make scaling.

Good night and hope for tomorrow
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] cnn888:
finally you are back in the game with 4.4.6 and 4.4.7.

PS can you try this kerrnel scheduler parameters: ched_min_granularity_ns & sched_wakeup_granularity_ns?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Meneldor:
I removed all lagfixes, went back to RFS everywhere, re-flashed the kernel - and faced the same problem: hangs during/after media scanning. Got back to K10 for now, will try SO later.

By the way, K10's ext4 no journaling scheme runs very very smooth, even though results of synthetic tests are rather average, the whole experience is pleasant. Maybe you could consider including this lagfix as well?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
I don't want disable journal on journalized FSs. Why do that ? Then a simply hang and fsck what will do now.... nothing... FS corrupted... you know

Well I got a question. Last time I flashed the kernel I was supposed to use Odin to flash. Now I should put a CWM PDA file of my rom (2. put a CWM pda file of your rom(or entire rom) on the sd card +the 4.3 cwm kernel.) on my sd card, but where can I get this PDA file of my rom? Or is it just the CWM file? My phone is running the normal JPO version.

same problem: hangs during/after media scanning...so i change with an old one.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vanahaim:
I'm trying..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] laststufo:
It happens because you have fs corrupted... it is not a kernel problem
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gregdeberg:
fs corrupted

so if my fs is corrupted, is there a solution please ?

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TweetyPeety:
first of all thanks laststufo for your hard work

you asked some posts before about my pit.ini.log, here it is. I don't know if helps you because I looked inside and there is only mentioned that it changed to JFS/JFS/JFS/Ext2/Ext2/Ext2/False and I don't have the sd card problem with that, only when binds is on true I got the sd card problem.

anyway 4.4.7 runs pretty stable and fast but SOMETIMES it hangs for a small moment. For example when I am in Settings an click on Sound or anything, it takes quite long to show up. Or any other App, SOMETIMES it hangs. It feels like the CPU needs to start, so that it is on 100mhz and starts going up, don't know if, but it feels like that.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] TweetyPeety:
sorry I know a lot but what is the RFS corruption fix ???? maybe the 4.4.8 Version ?????

UPDATE: right now I flashed to 4.4.8 and it worked ( first time ever, nice ).

Experience so far :

1. a little bit better but still some hangs when I click some apps, it is like some apps need a kick in the ass to wake up.

2. at 1,2 Ghz it crashes

3. external SD Card mount again causes a crash

so 4.4.7 was better for me, waiting for something new :) it is so crazy laststufo that you put so much work into this, hopefully will never be bored.
