the reorient kernel is for any rom that is i9000 some of older cog roms used it but it was dropped by dg because he wasnt a fan of xcaliburs kernel, caused to many problems. I like the i9000 kernels a lot. I was a little frustrated with the modem.bin issues. I never use COG so im kinda out of the loop to much help but like i said some cogs will play with it. I rather just flash darkkys raw steel rom... or even sheps there a few ones you can choose from.

Tweaking Options

I was looking at these 'tweaking options', found the following:

IOSCHED

KERNELVM

KERNELSCHED

MISC

But I have no idea what these do, which are recommended, what the pros and cons are. I searched this forum, but found no references to them.

Can someone either point me to any docs/discussions or other reading material, or perhaps a short discourse with warnings and recommendations?

Thanks!

Guess I need to spend more time over on the I9000 forums. That's where my answer was at:

Thats why I ran this Universal lag fix combo'ed with the UV/OC ROM not caring about the orientation... Its crazy fast....

Use spare parts and change the opening and closing application speed. Its ridiculous fast....
[Captivate Android Development] DOAlaboratories:
it's so quick i'm starting to wonder if this is gonna be unstable... my phone can handle OC though so we'll see what happens
[Captivate Android Development] TheTodFather:
i am most stoked by the ram optimization the most. I like ext 4 ooh jfs (battery sipper) I am really excited to see the free ram, i think that makes a nice performance boost.
[Captivate Android Development] peachpuff:
Which lagfix option are you guys using? Are the overkill options only limited to 128mb of app space?
[Captivate Android Development] ragingclue:
It's not a ROM; just flash your favorite ROM and then flash this kernel over it if you want. I think some of the ROMs are packaging this in it now too. The lagfix options will be in your recovery menus. I'm using JFS Overkill setting for th lagfix, and JPP, with Tayu's 1.0.3 and it's working as well as can be hoped for, with Linpack at 16.8 MFLOPS and Quadrant over 2200, but I can't speak for any of the other ROM's or options. And I actually get multiple bars of reception in my place!

There's plenty of feedback in the thread from people using different combos. I'm getting no FC's or app problems, except for my copy of the Sims 3 which isn't displaying most of the graphics for some reason, but I don't think that's ROM or kernel related.

[Captivate Android Development] Disgustipated:
Curious about this too. Time to change this kernel to 1.1.2 by removing those lines and adding BFQ :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] lpsi2000:
LOL, it was 7:00am when I responded. You are correct, I don't believe you can use Cog with JPP modem . Cog is based on the captivate source and you are trying to use an i9000 modem. There are only few i9000 HSUPA modem (e.g UGJH2, JG8, etc...) that did work with Captivate based ROM. Although I have not used Cog since beta 5.5 so I don't know if any new discoveries were found.

No need to get a little frustrated, I already read this thread at least 5 times from start to finish. Mostly because I was looking for information I thought I saw.

So are you paying attention now (lol):D,
[Captivate Android Development] borguesian:
If I flash this over the latest cog will I loose the 3 button recovery?
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
Yep..... my Asphalt 5 game gets uninstalled every time I reboot using this kernel..... I have flashed back to stock and master cleared, etc, TWICE, and it still happens. -_-

Anyone else experiencing this, cuz by now i know FOR SURE, it is not user error....

This is with kernel 1.1.1 btw.
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
No idea what it could be. I have it installed and it doesnt delete when I reflash or update the kernel or reboot. I have changed lagfix's a few times and that didn't affect it either.

Is it installed on your phone or SD card? I think it might have something to do with that if you have ever moved the app from internal to external SD card

Posted from my Captivate running Doc's JPO v7.5 rom with SetiroN's i9000 SuperOptimized kernel
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
Is it on your sd card?

Swyped...and sorry I don't proofread
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
Nope, sadly, i dont have an external SD card yet, so it has been on the internal SD card the whole time.

This had only started to happen with v1.1.1 installed. Using version 1.0 cause no problems. Funny thing is that it only happens to Asphalt. Any other app I install works fine.
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
My understanding is that the kernel will not touch the 3 button fix.

Anyways, I have v1008 and I am running Shep's ROM which uses this kernel. Still have 3 button (phew!)
[Captivate Android Development] KaLiBLeeK:
Haha; I'm a bit slow these days. My attention skillZ were lacking yesterday.

I'm gonna give the Tayutama ROM a go in a bit here, since people seem to be having good luck with that...and I'm thinking the i9000-based ROM + kernel + modem is probably something I should've figured out earlier. Haha.
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
To add to this, my UV isn't as stable as it was with V1.0 kernel. I was able to do -100 and -75 mv no problem with v1.0 but with the v.1.1.1 kernel, i have had problems with the same settings.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
So do I disable lagfix before flashing new Cognition? Or is that not necessary with this custom CWM?
[Captivate Android Development] Kizzmiazz:
I'm using cognition with this kernel and jpp modem with no problems so far . I don't use bt though so don't know how that works. Every thing is running great so far and best battery life I have ever had on a i19000 kernel and modem.

[Captivate Android Development] PowerPC:
In latest change log of re-oriented kernel, there is a change "SpeedMod memory settings incorporated with config changes for better battery life".

I'm wondering if v1.1.1 already has this incorporated? Just checking.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Yeah, well, before the boot animation..

If I would see it once I would accept the fact that i had an illusion but it was twice so.. i donnow.

However, the phone seems fine, no issues there.
[Captivate Android Development] joeshmoe08:
HeLp

Hello I have froto 2.2 on my captivate without and other rom or anything. What is the easiest way to flash this kernel and which file in the op do I download??? Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
"Ensure 850Mhz is working (*#0011#)"

What exactly should you be looking at/for?
[Captivate Android Development] SetiroN:
v1.2 OUT

increased available RAM to 343Mb, updated BLN to v2.2

For those asking:

BFQ has been included since 1.1 and the config settings you're talking about have always been there.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Do we need to disable the lagfix to Odin this over?
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
I remember reading this somewhere, but I think the reason is universal is because you dont have to do that. And also because its a kernel that has all the lagfixes.

So the answer is no. flash away! :]
[Captivate Android Development] SetiroN:
Nope, you can flash straight over.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Thanks a lot for the quick responses! Flashing! And thanks for all the hard work and amazing product! Must change sig
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Seems like BLN is broken in v1.2. Worked in v1.1 and v1.1.1 perfectly, would always be lit when i had a notification. But in 1.2 I cant get it to work through Clockwork or the BLN app

EDIT: Also, how do I know if Voodoo color is working? It still seems a bit blue tinted at 100% brightness, doesn't seem to make much of a difference
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
Did you flash with Odin or cwm?

Posted from my Captivate running Doc's JPO v7.5 rom with SetiroN's i9000 SuperOptimized kernel
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Odin over v1.1.1, with JPP kernel
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
Just flashed it with CWM and BLN works just tested it with a text.

Posted from my Captivate running Doc's JPO v7.5 rom with SetiroN's i9000 SuperOptimized kernel
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Crap, thanks. And flashing the standard version of this will or will not overwrite my JPP kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
Nope, will only overwrite the kernel. Won't touch the modem.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Thanks guys! You all are a HUGE help!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Confirmed, BLN works with the CWM flashable zip, not with Odin. Modem also intact :D I am satisfy!
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
:]

I won't be satisfied until Samsung releases a fixed browser without the horrendous scrolling lag and memory leaks -_-
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Too true. Too bad Firefox and Dolphin are just too bulky and slow
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
LOL, it must be something to do with the Froyo beta roms, cuz all of the browsers have memory leaks and laggy scrolling.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
What can you do? At least we're the only ones WITH Froyo thats not a cheap i9000 port!! Friends with Vibrants can SIT DOWN! And this kernel is just too beast
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
lol, i actually like the i9000 ports better than the leaked captivate roms :/
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Oh.. I don't honestly but that's my preference, I'm running Cognition and couldn't be happier. Super fast. Everything works.
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
I haven't used cognition in awhile, but comparing the beta 6 to another i9000 rom at the time, the i9000 rom was noticeably smoother and faster.

And i like the HSUPA. Haha, kinda getting off topic here.
[Captivate Android Development] Lee1733:
So does this kernel actually give 343 available ram? For example, when I kill all tasks the first time it says something around 90 MB available; if I do it a 2nd time it says around 120 MB is available, but it never gets much above that.. would this actually get me to above 300? I'm sure there's a better way to check this info, but just going by what I've seen.

Sent from my Samsung Captivate.

Current rom: Cognition 2.3b3
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
It just allows 343 MB of ram to be used by programs. So you will never actually achieve 343 MB cuz even on a fresh boot, the phone already uses around 140-160 MB, but compared to without the mod, you will have 40 MB more available ram.

Example: Currently with just my home screen open, i am already using 194 MB, so that is about 150 MB of free ram. However, this is after my phone has been used for awhile, and I have quite a bit of widgets.
[Captivate Android Development] lpsi2000:
Yep, BT noise would be an issue and since you don't use BT then it is a perfect match for you.

Okay, now I think we are getting somewhere. They are plenty of i9000 ROM so take your time and look for something that fit your needs.

I don't use my wired headset to talk on the phone so I am perfectly fine with any ROM including the i9000 custom and leak ROMs.
[Captivate Android Development] Kizzmiazz:
Well I'm loving this kernel like you wouldn't believe, best kernel I have seen. I never had good battery life with a i19000 kernel and modem. Right now I'm running cog,jpp modem and v1.2 of this kernel. But I'm a flash addict lol so I'm charging my phone and gonna flash tats rom ,jpp and this kernel. I always thought i19000 roms ran smother but battery always drained right before my eyes. So I can't wait to see what happens ;)

whats weird,

asphalt 3d was not uninstalling on 1.1.1 but when i went to 1.2 it was removed and after i reinstall it it removes.

When will this bug fix be fixed?
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
I had a similar bug. in 1.1.1 whenever i installed asphalt3d, after a reboot, it was like it was never installed.

However, in 1.2, i first deleted the asphalt folder in sdcard/gameloft/games and then i reinstalled, and it is working fine now.
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
that folder was not there and the game still ran and won the race
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
So are you guys using the special tweaks and if so which are making a visible difference for you?

Since BFQ is included in the kernel, I'm wondering if the tweak "kernel scheduler" should be disabled. On the other hand I'm not sure if maybe BFQ is enabled by that tweak. Anyone know what exactly it does?

[Captivate Android Development] bamonkey:
First off great work on this kernel! My sgs is a freakin beast and swear when i showed it off to my iphone friend i started to see tears LOL!

so everything looks good no problems but i read in the OP that we would have to "remove the last command" in s_volt_scheduler to be able to use bfq and the voltage app. so another day and its time for an old dog to learn a new trick. ive got the file open on my phone to edit and i see a

echo "anticipatory">$i/queue/scheduler

Good to know as i took the plunge already :D. i am in the voltage control app after a reboot and i still see the scheduler showing "anticipatory" however. anything further i should be doing?
[Captivate Android Development] Disgustipated:
Came from using OCLF ---> Voodoo/CoG in the last few weeks to using this today with GeoMod 2.2.1 and all I can say is: believe the hype. Using all tweaks + JFS filesystem with a 1.2 Ghz overclock makes this phone absurdly fast. I'd even venture to say that the Galaxy S with these tweaks + minor overclock + overhaul/replacement of the file system (not to mention 40 extra MB of RAM) is the fastest phone you can get for overall performance, bar none. And it only gets better and better every week that goes by. I am continually astounded at the nonstop, rapid development and discoveries that the Galaxy S/Captivate dev community finds on a near-daily basis.

Get this kernel if you haven't already. The speed/power is mindblowing and it's only getting faster/better. Thanks for taking the time to compile this, setiron.
[Captivate Android Development] ladiesgod:
Am I doing something wrong?

From stock 2.1 I flashed the "setiron_v1.2_bln_with_jpp_modem_update.zip" file using ROM manager. When it reboots it's stuck at the Galaxy S TG-I9000 black screen.

Anybody knows what's up? it's been stuck there for about 7 minutes.

Try holding the vol and power buttons until it reboots or pull the battery and restart. If still stuck you are probably going to have to reflash

[Captivate Android Development] InsaneJester17:
I have a question. I installed this kernel over my Cog 2.3.2 rom. I disabled voodoo before installing, but when I removed the "disable lagfix" folder after installing the kernel, it didn't put voodoo back. And my clockwork doesn't seem to have the lagfix options menu. Is there anything I can do to get into the lagfix options?

Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] SetiroN:
This is not a Voodoo kernel so it won't automatically convert /data to ext4 when there's no /sdcard/Voodoo/disable-lagfix, but will still work if you don't disable voodoo before flashing.

You can access lagfix settings in clockwork recovery under advanced ULK options > lagfix options: from there you configure a voodoo-like lagfix (only /data formatted to ext4) as well as more advanced setups.
[Captivate Android Development] InsaneJester17:
Thanks for your reply! But my clockwork recovery doesn't have that option, I had clockwork installed before I installed the kernel and it doesn't show up when I reboot into recovery. Is there anything I can do to add it there?
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I had clockwork installed, flashed this kernel on top, and now cwm has become his modded cwm with all the new options...... :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] InsaneJester17:
I figured it out. I guess I had to get into recovery by holding the power button and selecting recovery to get those options. When I went into clockwork and used "reboot into recovery" the new options were not there. Thanks everyone!

I'm running this kernel on the aosplike rom for the captivate which is in this section and home button feedback works. I guess it only doesn't work if you are using an i9000 rom.

[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
I flashed with CWM and followed the instructions in the OP, applied lagfix, enabled BLN, then when the option for backup and restore came up I choose it and I have been hung on Restoring data....773023508.cache for 10 minutes. The progress bar hasn't moved. Is this normal? I don't want to yank the battery in the middle and screw myself. I've always had the three button combo and I have batch 1007. How long is this supposed to take?

edit, stuck for 15 minutes. What now? 20 minutes, I think it's stalled. Used the voodoo like jfs lagfix. getting ready to yank the battery and hope I'm not bricked.

edit

usied 3 buttons to boot into recovery, tried Voodoo like lagfix, looks like the backup is running fine now, rebooting, starting up, no boot animation just a black screen, will give it a few minutes., **** I think it master cleared me. WTF?

Looks like all my backups are gone. Thank god I have them on my pc, just incase. Restoring apps with TIBU, restored my contacts, once I get everything setup again, I will do a new backup with Clockwork. Looks like JFS lagfix was not working so the backup was stalled for 20 minutes. When I booted back into recovery I applied the Voodoo like lagfix and the backup was pointles because the previous failed installed wiped everything, my internal sd is fine, just the backups I had previously done with Clockwork were lost. No biggie, just a pain.

Yeah I played with a couple i19000 roms and the voltage app settings stick through reboot so its definitely a captivate + this kernel problem. After reboot if you set what you want with the voltage app it works fine untill you reboot. So if you don't want oc/uv just set it after reboot.
