Remove "bootani.qmg" and "bootsamsungloop.qmg" from /system/media. You can then add a bootanimation.zip in /system/media with any custom animation you like, just as we did in SyndicateROM.

I love this @#$(*& kernel!!! <33333333 Been running it all day and its so sexy smooth. no lag, no market issues, no weird reboots, no weird shutdowns. damn this **** is great.
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Devin's put out quite a hit! It's by far the best Epic kernel I've ever used.

If you like Xtreme Kernel, why not give its partner in crime, SyndicateROM a whirl? ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] bryanfritz1:
Awesome for the quick reply but astro doesn't have permissions, is this a task for abd? Haven't ventured to abd yet. Any quick suggestions would be great.
[Epic 4G Android Development] asj2583:
Wow just got out of 13 shift and I see this. Great way to end the day!
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Root Explorer or ADB will do. To do it through ADB, just run 'adb shell' and type:

rm /system/media/bootani.qmg
rm /system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmg

And that should do it. If you've ever used a Linux shell (command line), that's all ADB really is. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
It's something that I'm working on. Getting those extra steps will ultimately make the phone run a lot smoother. I'll start with a 1400 step and go from there.

Also, sorry for not being around much tonight. At work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] cicada:
zomg! 23.378!

All I can say is holy crap.

Using the JIT noobnl posted and this kernel at '1.6', I consistently get 23.3+ in linpack.

This definitely shows the potential of this phone when it fully matures.

This is completely and utterly unstable, mind you - I can't really do much with the phone since everything useful gets garbage collected.

Using noobnl's andromeda 1.1.1a, xtreme 1.0.1 and the SDX JIT

Freaking insane, great work everyone!
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
That instability is why JIT isn't in SyndicateROM yet - but once it's stable, you can bet it will be.

[Epic 4G Android Development] JungleJiujitsu:
I would also like to know how to do this, could some one please point me to the thread or list the steps to do so? Thanks in advance!
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
To calibrate, charge your battery to 100%, then go into Clockwork, and reset your battery stats. Then reboot, and let your battery drain to completely dead. Once it's dead, charge to 100% again. Do the full-drain-full-charge for a couple of cycles.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JungleJiujitsu:
Thanks for the info, very much appreciated!...any word on if the dev of this kernel will be releasing a Voodoo version at all?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Can't say - that's entirely up to Devin.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zeinzu:
for the love of god keep a version without it if u guys do one with it, it looks retarded

I'll give this a whirl from MixUp on the stock ROM

Hopefully my phone wont lock up at least once a day now

EDIT: Highest Quadrant score I got was 1209 @ 1.6ghz, compared to 1017 I got from Mixup@ 1.2ghz.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Hero_Over:
From my experience the table has only accepted 7 frequencies.

But dude seriously. Congrats.you put the missing code in I see and this is definately above 1.3ghz. Judging by your code you haven't even upped any voltages. How that worked is beyond me but congrats. Good work and I hope you scale it dow a bit bc at 1.6 it acts a little funny at times
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
I was just thinking, if our Quadrant scores are already better than the EVO on 2.2, we're gonna be so frickin' fast when we get Froyo! :eek:

I am stoked!
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
My current stance on VooDoo color:

I won't be adding it in anytime in the near future. While I see the benefit of it, it's something that I don't particularly like. I think the screen looks cleaner without it. Plus, I can't see how it could be affective across the board. All screen are different, so how can one fix work universally? Plus, those brightness tweaks that everyone talks about are included in here. They are part of an entirely different system. Voodoo was a color modification.

Now, in case anyone somehow missed it, v1.0.1 is posted. Here's a rundown:

-I've got 1.6GHz working. I added the code for it to properly step. It's running at 1.3v.

-I've stopped a process called Carrier IQ in the init.rc. This is, essentially, Sprint spyware used to gather data about your usage. TO ROM DEVS: You are going to want to remove the files from your ROM to make sure it doesn't start itself later. ACS has tested it and it doesn't seem to start again, but always on the safe side.

What's in the works:

-Adding a step/few steps between 1.2GHz and 1.6GHz. This should improve overall smoothness of the kernel.

-I'm going to up the voltage on 1.6GHz just a little. I *think* this is the cause of the vibration problem, but this is just a late-night theory.

I want to add that interactive seems to play well this kernel. I haven't played with it at all, but it doesn't seem to be ignoring mt minimum frequency settings like it was before. I don't know what's up with this. I suspect it has something to do with setting the defconfig minimum to 200MHz, but who knows. It doesn't drop to 100MHz, so it doesn't lock up... But that's just my experience. Because of this, I suggest interactive as your governor. I'll make it default for 1.0.4.

Thanks for your support and kind words, guys! It means a lot and keeps me going.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
GOD! This explains why it won't scale to 100MHz. Hmmm, I've read that we should be able to get 16 steps in, but I don't know how, and this is mostly based on hearsay. I haven't looked into this at all, but it seems ridiculous.

Ugh, this means I have to choose what I want to scale back. I wanna get 1.6GHz running smoothly. If I indefinitely determine that I can't, I'll scale it back a little.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mynewepic10:
When I install setcpu, what settings should I use for best performance and battery. More worried about battery life. I am running sindicated rom with this kernel built in.

Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Conservative. I had it on for six hours off the hook and I drained 30% with heavy use.
[Epic 4G Android Development] decalex:
somewhat related (but not worthy of own thread), generally speaking, if I apply settings in setCPU, say 1600max 400min Conservative, etc, then uninstall SetCPU, are the settings reverted to what they were before? or do they stay as SetCPU changed them? I'm curious bc I've been messing with the other OC widget on the market.
[Epic 4G Android Development] drizek:
I don't get why you removed the 60fps cap. I wan't the 1.6ghz but with the cap.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
They revert when SetCPU is uninstalled.

I'm confused. First of all, the cap isn't removed... just raised. What is your reason for wanting it low? Just curious.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mynewepic10:
I see other things that can be adjusted. Should I asjust any of these or just choose conservative?

What should the min and max be on the first page?
[Epic 4G Android Development] barakisbrown:
I am running EE 1.2.05 and Xtreme 1.0.1 reguardless of speed hangs when I run quadrant when it does the h.264 codec test(step 11 in the first line).

I do get 13.4 in linkpack(sp?)
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Try flashing again, after clearing cache and Dalvik cache.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Do you mean stops for a second and goes on or just sits there forever? It runs all the way through for me just fine.

The rest are sliders for your min and max frequency. I use 200-1600.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mynewepic10:
So I guess the lower you set the max, the better your battery life will be?
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Correct. 1000 is stock, 1200 is the original OC, 1600 is new OC. Should run great wherever you put it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mynewepic10:
What exactly does it affect more so? I mainly use my phone for calls of course, but do a lot of texting and web browsing. Does this allow me to set the max a little lower to conserve battery life?

Thanks for all your help.
[Epic 4G Android Development] drizek:
60fps isn't low, and it is probably all that the screen can display anyway, so I don't see a point in wasting battery running it faster, except for benchmarks.

Anyway, I should probably say thanks for the awesome kernel...

So the interactive governor works now? Why is everyone using conservative instead?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zeinzu:
i use conservative cause interactive chews my battery and spits it out
[Epic 4G Android Development] pdong:
any plans for voodoo in future versions?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JungleJiujitsu:
haha this should clarify your questions:
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
^ Totally agree on Devin's stance on Voodoo. Brightness tweaks are already in here and work fine. I prefer stock colors over Voodoo's any day. While Voodoo makes some screens look nicer, it also f's up colors on a large majority of them. Not only do colors look bad on Voodoo enabled ROMs for me, but I get glitches all over the place (one example of this is when in any window scrolling, my screen turns a disgusting yellowish / brown color for a sec while it refreshes).

Devin, after more testing, I decided to leave it at conservative 200-1200 mhz. I notice it is very smooth at these settings as well. I think 1600 mhz is only good for benchmarks because I seem to get better overall performance (and of course, battery life) at the lower 1200 mhz clock.
[Epic 4G Android Development] monadzback:
Yup. This is fast for sure. I came from Hero's bs 1.4 with kernel. Still running bs 1.4 but with the Extreme v1.0.1 kernel. I recieved 13.4 lp and 1200ish quad. No wipe of anything. Just re-flashed and it worked like a champ.

thanks devs for the hard work! its greatly appreciated.

[Epic 4G Android Development] FoxRacR17:
Ran into a bug and I don't know if its because of this kernel or the latest syndicate rom. I was calibrating my battery yesterday, I ran my phone into the ground and used it until it shut off on me, then I plugged it in with it off and it would NOT charge. The screen came on with the battery icon but the red led never turned on and the battery never filled up green indicating it was charging. The screen eventually timed out and I pressed the power button and the screen turned on but it showed nothing had changed.

Then I held the power button and the phone booted up and then the red led turned on and my phone started charging.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pdong:
that sucks. i care more about the sharpness being turned down more than the colors although my stock screen does have the blue cast that voodoo fixes

oh well :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Hey guys!

Just stopping in to see how everyone is doing :) I'm going to be adding some screenshots to the first post of benchmarks... for the hell of it XD

I also want to add this:

This kernel is build for Syndicate ROM. It will run mostly fine on other ROMs, but it will run the best on Syndicate. This was built for Syndicate and Syndicate was built around it. All scores I ever mention will be posted from Syndicate. Not to mention everything seems much smoother for me on Syndicate... Yeah, I've tested around.
[Epic 4G Android Development] barakisbrown:
Okay. I just cleared both regular cache and dalvik cache and then reflashed the kernel and it still freezes at 11/12(h. 264). I can click clear but I cannot get passed it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
I've experienced the same issue on other roms when DRM apks were removed. Did you delete the DRM files?
[Epic 4G Android Development] infamousjax:
I flashed over Epic Experience and my boot screen is all jacked up. Kernel works great though. I've noticed that I get crazy benchmark numbers @ 1.6, but the UI in general seems smoother at 1.2. Gonna leave this on and report battery findings in 24 hours.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
If your using Syndicate then yes its removed. But thats odd cause everyone else can run the test. Can you reinstallt he application on a fresh install? Get a new copy of the application. As well as Re formatt your SDcard seems to be helping allot of issues.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Hey DevinXtreeme, I read somewhere that in order to enable custom frequences using Setcpu, you have to put a file on your sdcard called "setcpu.exe", is this true? And if it is, what frequences should I use with your kernel, from the beginning freq, to the end??

BTW: I'm using syndicate rom w\Xtreem kernel. Quadrant scores at 1250!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] cicada:
Every spec sheet I've seen for this screen states a 68Hz refresh rate, if there's any talk of capping it at all, that's likely the ideal place. The screen probably doesn't refresh any faster than that, but on the same note likely doesn't refresh any slower either. Faster framerates than 68fps likely won't show any visual improvement.

That said, I *do* like to brag about this phone's awesome benchmarks ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
That file is optional for phones that don't totally support SetCPU. You don't need it for this one. Check the thread, as directions for using SetCPU have been posted several times.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Okay, will do. Thanks so much for your help. I love this kernel so friggen' much! Its great! And it supports custom boot animations!
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
This kernel is designed for custom boot animations such as that included in SyndicateROM. With the stock boot animation, you'll get some not-so-nice results.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SwimDrewid:
So, hows the battery life on this compared to fluff? Getting great battery life on fluff, but am always looking for snappier performance with exceptional battery life
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
You should get battery life that's as good as or better than FluffKernel or any others, once you've calibrated your battery (as Xtreme Kernel is very different from most others). :)

It's set to 1.0ghz by default, and you can scale it to 1.2ghz or 1.6ghz as you wish.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SwimDrewid:
Right. Conservative? And what's the battery degradation from 1.0 to 1.2 and 1.2 to 1.6?

But I'll be flashing this (and prolly syndicate) on monday.

Been getting to complacent with the status quo of late ;-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
1.2ghz shouldn't be much of a step down. As for 1.6ghz, well, it can vary for everyone, so I suggest testing that yourself. Conservative will do fine - but I can't say whether Devin's got Interactive working properly or not.

SyndicateROM includes this excellent kernel, so why not save yourself some time and kill two birds with one stone? ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
1.2 ghz conservative is the best step for performance / battery life it seems. Still seems hella fast, only thing you won't get are the ridiculous benchmarks, which don't mean all that much with real world usage. Battery life is good at 1.2, was poor for me at 1.6.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tibwolf:
I've been running my phone since last night calibrating my battery. Maybe an hour or two of Robo Defense, a couple minutes of GPS, a couple minutes of phone calling, 5 Quadrant runs, and perhaps 30 minutes max of XDA and Dolphin Browser leaves me at 26% for being on for 20 hours.

SetCPU was set conservative with a min of .2ghz to a max of 1.6ghz
[Epic 4G Android Development] BBlunts456:
That's amazing battery life! What are the exact(or best) steps for calibrating the battery? My battery seems to drain really fast. I'm on EE with this kernel and emotionless theme.

Sent from my asshole because my phones the ****!
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Charge your battery to full, then while on AC power, boot to recovery and wipe battery stats. Unplug, then drain to completely depleted. Charge to 100% again. Repeat the charge-drain cycle a couple of times, and you should be good.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
With that kind of battery life, your battery was probably already calibrated.

One thing to note for everyone, when you wipe battery stats in clockwork, all you are doing is deleting the batterystats.ini file on the data partition. So if you have a full battery when you wipe your data(before flashing a ROM), you are already calibrating your battery and there is no need to do it again unless you are changing kernels again. For those of us that were Moment users, if you remember using the Samsung software updater to flash back to stock, it would say to make sure the battery was fully charged before flashing. That is why.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BBlunts456:
Cool. Thank you. Do you recommend using Advanced Task Killer?(a lil out of the blue, just curious)lol

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] shahriar5252:
Does anyone know how to enable threaded email (Conversation Email option) option in pocket Outlook of Sprint Lovers ROM (CE OS 5.2.28232 (Build 28232.5.3.3)). This is a feature that is available in wm6.5.3. If anyone knows of any ROM that has this added features for Sprint TP2, please let me know.

I am doing push email using TP2's ActiveSync with my Gmail account. Furthermore, I went to the registry and searched for the word "conversation". There is one DWord that has it, but conversation mode does not appear in my pocket email. Here is the reg key:

Thanks for your help.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] cajunflavoredbob:
It's either cooked in or it isn't. Any ROM running build 235xx is going to have it. It's a part of the SYS build itself. It's not an app that you can add in. Ask your chef about it. So far you can only get threaded email in 6.5.3 builds. If you're looking for it in 6.5, then you're out of luck.

[Captivate Android Development] LuckyX2:
Hey guys, over the course of using my captivate there have been a few things I've come to appreciate but it seems I haven't found a rom yet to offer them all. One thing I like is touchwiz. I love the lockscreen and the brightness adjustment on the notification bar most. Next would be the android keyboard, I'm always hitting the damn period button on the samsung one... I also like having a battery with the percentage displayed. Backlight notification is useful too and lastly I like having an automatically alphabetized launcher like the stock touchwiz launcher. Oh and HSUPA is a must, obviously.

So I started with Tayutama's Rom. I then added the stock android keyboard and replaced the launcher with adw launcher because for the life of me I could not find a way to automatically alphabetize the launcher apps with Tayutama's launcher. Plus I just think adw looks cleaner. I also replaced the kernel with Setiron's optimized kernel, threw in setCPU, voltage control and BLN apps to control some of the kernel's features and lastly I replaced the JPM modem with JG8.

You may be wondering why I chose JG8 for the modem. Well read here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=816271

That explains how starting on JG8 produces a more reliable 850 band connection. I recommend flashing JPM or JPP over this modem after installation of the rom.

As for benches, I'm seeing about 17Mflops and 1900 Quadrant with advanced jfs lagfix.

So this rom pretty much gives me everything I've enjoyed in different roms but now in one. I didn't do any real work here, I just threw the things together into an update.zip. So if you wish to say thank you, say thank you to the real developers and donate to them.

Here's the link:

http://www.multiupload.com/LGYWA92SYW

To install simply reboot into clockwork recovery, install from zip and upon reboot enter clockwork recovery again and select your lagfix. Flashing back to stock and master clearing is always a good idea too.

I've been testing it for three days now and not a single problem or force close but I am not responsible for anything this may do to your phone, use at your own risk. That being said, enjoy!

UPDATE 1 The file has been updated with kernel 1.1.1 and the correct keyboard. Upload wasn't working so I updated the link

UPDATE 2 Kernel updated to version 1.2

UPDATE 3 Kernel updated to version 1.2.6

NOTE ABOUT BATTERY LIFE: Make sure to recalibrate your battery. After recalibration I'm getting great results as seen in the screenshot above

[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
This is just about what I am running now, except I had to piece mine together. Nice work LuckyX2
[Captivate Android Development] LuckyX2:
No unfortunately, When I made this the kernel was only at 1.1

I have some class and homework today but when I find time I'll update the kernel and put in the right keyboard into the update.zip

Until then, you'll just have to use clockwork recovery once more to update the kernel.

Firmware is JPM Froyo just as in Tayutama's. I am however considering doing what I did here but with Doc's newer Froyo and Tayutama's skin.

It's a good combo isn't it? I find it "feels" faster then the Doc/Setiron combo even though that has a newer froyo. Odd, maybe It's just my perception that's off.
