[Vibrant Android Development] nearblack:
so I went into recovery and applied the "OCLF" and "voodoo" lagfix on the "B_Stock_1120 Kernel "

if I every flash a new ROM or kernel, what precautionary steps should I take?

What should be disabled, changed, etc when flashing?
[Vibrant Android Development] kennyp987:
stock kernel = win :rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] hanbaoquan15:
How's battery life for everyone?
[Vibrant Android Development] calvinpreston:
the battery life improved bigtime on first B series compared to A series. it also runs smoothly. what's next eugene?
[Vibrant Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
For all those wondering or unable to read the info notes:

The new B-series Kernel:

-Battery life is identical or very close to the stock 2.2 Kernel

-The Kernel no longer freezes or has any wake-freeze issues. It is completely stable under all speed settings

-It has the ULF fixed for corruption so technically you can apply all Lagfix options now...even Overkill ones to get the ultimate IO boost

-Overclock of 1.12Ghz currently.

-Supports back-light notifications
[Vibrant Android Development] hanbaoquan15:
I lose about 5% for an hour on standby. Is that normal for stock kernel?

PS: I use the Overkill JFS lag fix
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
PERFECT, are you using a lagfix?
[Vibrant Android Development] m00nshake:
Ok, got it... thanks again, Eugene. I've got the battery fully charged, got Macnut12 running with Black Froyo theme and this new B-stock kernel, got the Overkill Lag Fix enabled, I'll keep you posted on how it runs and any testing I'm able to do today.

Cheers =)

Funny you say that.. B_1120 is currently at 9hrs 28mins 35 sec @ 52%

This on the First charge, yet to be fully trained.... Not so sure...

Battery Code to Live by...

Treat it life your mom = Great Battery Life

Treat it like a Hooker = Piss poor Life..

If you have the Screen on the Whole Time & ***** about Battery life.. :rolleyes: then I wonder why...
[Vibrant Android Development] calvinpreston:
eugene, what you gonna work on today? 1.2ghz? can't wait. 1.12ghz is so awesome that makes me wanna ask for 1.2. :P
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
Heading out to do the Family thing... Will be after 5 or 6 before I start work on it.
[Vibrant Android Development] dbacchus:
Now *this*, dear sirs, I call the dedication... Happy family meal, Eugene!
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
No doubt I agree, thats why my moms living a good life and my hookers are catching aids or a knife... :)

Regardless, most if not all custom put together roms and kernels arent giving **** for life, believe me, ive tried them all, crap compared to stock, no competition. Keep up the good work thoigh, I do have faith you will get there one day ::sleeps::

::wakes:: oh yeah, hurry so I can buy you that pop eugene :p
[Vibrant Android Development] MINUS Stl:
Are you resetting the phone, or rebooting the phone? Try unchecking 'set on boot'. Iirc, it needs to be unchecked for it to work (I know.....kinda opposite). Mine's unchecked and always sets after a reboot.
[Vibrant Android Development] takato23:
okay, i've just back to stock Jk2, macnut r12 and now installing last kernel.

For the lenguage what can i do?

And it's best to set on all the tweaks??? wich is the best lagfix in performance and stability?
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
If 'set on boot' is not checked, it NEVER sets after a reboot.

The sliders may appear to have the settings you selected, but the indicators above are what you really need to look at as they actually tell you what the processor is set as.

This is somewhat confusing and can lead one to think the previous settings were maintained, but they actually were not.

The only times settings are retained are if the ROM is pre-configured to to the CPU management, as in some of Eugene and TW ROMs.

I would advise you to take a good look at the 'actual' settings after a reboot and then run a SetCPU detection to see the difference.

Just my 2 cents.
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
I'm running the new B kernel on the Obsidian 5 Beta right now and I have it set to JFS Overkill (last option) with all tweaks enabled.

I'm not much a backlight notification kinda guy. I personally think BLN is just an additional way to waste battery life and as I get texts and emails practically non-stop, its a bit annoying too :)

Testing overall battery life right now.
[Vibrant Android Development] M5devil:
Ok, I must say battery life is not so great on these experimental Kernels, unless I am not doing something right.

1. Odin'ed and formated to fresh Eugene's leaked 2.2 ROM.

2. Flashed Master's 2.05 Axura ROM.

3. Switched to my 100% full battery and reconditioned battery via 3e recovery.

4. Flashed B_Stock_1120.zip

5. Again reconditioned battery via 3e recovery.

6. Froze the 2 DRM apps via TB

7. Left it on standby at 3.30 am last night

8. Woke up at 8.00 am to check the battery... it was at 80% ???

I checked the System Panel app that monitored the CPU activity at night and it was hovering all night at around 15% with the main culprit being System Processes taking around 10% of CPU time... suspend and rild processes being on top of the list with 6% and 1% respectively consuming most of the CPU time and battery.

Anyone else reporting this??

EDIT #1

I will do the same again tonight only to see how the STOCK Kernel performs under Axura 2.0.5 just to compare and report back.

By the way it's 11.40am I haven't touched the phone except to see what System Panel is showing - battery at 66%

EDIT #2

Forgot to say, I SetCPU at 1120 MHz max 100 MHz min with scaling ondemand and SET ON BOOT.
[Vibrant Android Development] takato23:
soooo? i have to set "on demand" and "set on boot"?. I've just instaled kernel B series, actived all tweaks and last option lagfix in macnut r12.

Can i use this kernel also in other roms? like axura?
[Vibrant Android Development] ilaf0106:
What does resetting battery bin mean? How do you do that?

Honk! If you want to see me flash!
[Vibrant Android Development] dcchristopher:
Is it me or is this B_stock_1120 kernel recreating init.rc upon every boot? I'm trying to disable bootanim and it reverses it at startup. I just thought I'd throw that out there in case anyone else thinks they're stuck in some sort of Sisyphean cycle ...
[Vibrant Android Development] lorendroll:
M5devil great research! I noticed the same thing. Reverted to stock kernel. It doesn't load CPU more than 1-3% in sleep.
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
Yup. Thats what ive been trying by to say, what is going on that drains these phones when using custom kernels. Sticking with stock and using oclf is more than enough. Plus GPS works better in stock too.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
New B kernel is great on battery life. CPU doesn't go above 3% while sleeping. Great job Eugene. I do occasionally still get freezes, usually when i'm surfing the web. This happens for me when I UV the highest freq. Hopefully we'll see the use of the UV control app once again. Thanks for all your hard work Eugene, and being the first to fix the /system corruption.
[Vibrant Android Development] kanwal236:
b-stock 1120 broke my wifi

scratch that, i didn't set up droid wall properly yet!
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
"Sisyphean Cycle".

How positively erudite :)
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
You can't apply both LagFixes simultaneously. You're gonna have to choose one.
[Vibrant Android Development] salvador3:
Anyone know how I can verify which kernel I have installed?

I updated to the EB Stock one but when I check about it says 2.6.32.9

Not sure if that's the Eb Stock version.....
[Vibrant Android Development] nanim0n:
If u have setcpu it tells u under info
[Vibrant Android Development] ilaf0106:
How can I get down to 3.0v before my phone dies? I'm high 3.7's at 30%!

Honk! If you want to see me flash!
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
Right now unfortunately that nod is not working. I know eugene is working on fixing it but ive tried two kernels that are supposed to do just that with no success yet. You get a meter and pull out the battery and check the voltage every few minutes while draining it with a #194 lightbulb from auto zone. Theres a thread on how to drain it but wait till eugene fixes the kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] ilaf0106:
Koo! Thanks for the heads up! I'll just wait lol

Honk! If you want to see me flash!
[Vibrant Android Development] Greenarcher707:
I tried the 1.3 OC and it was nice except for the fact that i get random shutdowns and would have to pull the battery. Missed calls and stuff lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] n3xx:
says treat it life your mom on the OP and i think it's spose to say treat it like your mom. Just sayin lol
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
I really liked the 1.3 kernel, worked well on my phone(:

[Vibrant Android Development] musky:
help please

I flashed the a12 kernal a few days ago. It wiped my internal sd. Ive been trying to odin back, but odin just hangs every time. Now my phone won't boot and I can't get to recovery. Download mode works, but as I said odin just does not want to work. It gets about halfway through, and then my phones screen turns solid red or blue or just shuts off. I'm freaking out. If anybody has any ideas I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.:eek:
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
Try flashing the flashable 2.2 stock zip. Easier than odin if you can get to clockwork still.
[Vibrant Android Development] daobn24:
The b stock 1120 kernel breaks my root permision. Anyway to fix this?

-Bao
[Vibrant Android Development] dcchristopher:
Are you sure about that? How does it manage to "break" it? I experienced a little wild goose chase that I hope is the same (non-)problem that you are facing. When "adb shell"-ing into my phone, I would get the hash mark right away and I would erroneously think that I was in su mode. Apparently this kernel's default shell sports the hash mark, as opposed to the tell-tale dollar sign. Just type su and then go about your root business.

I hope that helped!

DCC
[Vibrant Android Development] dcchristopher:
Indubitably ...

Seriously though, that's the first thing that came to mind ... now that you made me think about it, I guess I could have made wittier allusions ...

"Every time my Vibrant boots, init.rc gets overwritten and the phone starts playing 'I Got You Babe' by Sony & Cher."

*shudders*
[Vibrant Android Development] daobn24:
I'm pretty sure it does. After flash, it reboot fine but all programs that requires root says it cannot detects root. I tried to reroot but get the same msg. I still have su installed.

-Bao
[Vibrant Android Development] Kubernetes:
B1120 is running pretty well for me right now. I've got JFS-Advanced plus all tweaks, SetCPU at OnDemand, and everything is smooth with no sleep-death after two days. Batt life is better than earlier i9000 kernels, probably 3-5% /hr drain on standby--still more than twice as much as stock, but I've got two spare batteries so that's manageable.
[Vibrant Android Development] dcchristopher:
I believe there are some rooting options in the Recovery menu ... this may be related to the reinitialization of the init.rc I was mentioning in my other posts ... I wonder if this kernel reads the recovery settings and just recreates the configuration files/scripts accordingly upon each boot.

Please try that and let us know.
[Vibrant Android Development] daobn24:
I tried, but no cigar. Z4root hangs at phrase 1, recovery simple root did'nt root. I don't know what the adv or ext root option in recovery is so I'm not gonna try. Stange...

-Bao
[Vibrant Android Development] dcchristopher:
Very strange indeed ... if you're as comfortable with flashing as some of us here are, I would highly recommend you ODIN back to some stable stock (one that likes repartitioning) and then flashing back to R12. I had flashed one too many update zips and my phone was acting real flaky ... I just started with a clean slate and all is well now. I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing these issues.

Good luck, mate!
[Vibrant Android Development] jdkackley:
Sounds like you had a bad flash. You could try to update BUSYBOX to see if it helps, but i think something went haywire in your flash. Best bet, ODIN back to stock and start again.
[Vibrant Android Development] jdkackley:
ODIN back to JFD with repartition checked. Then start from the top. If you need more help pm me!
[Vibrant Android Development] daobn24:
Heh, the weird thing is I flashed back to Overkill and my root is back...I'm ok with Overkill for now.

-Bao
[Vibrant Android Development] jdkackley:
Thats most likely cause your original file system is corupted. Hate to be the bearer of bad news but, with that kernel it more than possible. But you can rock it if you choose to. I hope you have your int and ext cards backed up!
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:

I returned it to t-mobile and they are sending me a new one : ) but i'm hoping they will not find the 5 dif kernals and 7 dif roms on it haha

any chance of that?

[Vibrant Android Development] m00nshake:
Awesome... Just awesome...
[Vibrant Android Development] JeremyNT:
Phew, I guess I did have the corruption issue going from A_OVERKILL to stock. Everything seemed fine at first, but I was getting random files hosed (then showing up in LOST.DIR) and eventually it failed to boot.

Lesson learned here: if you used a ULF kernel that had the wrong mount options at some point, DON'T ROLL THE DICE and hope that everything will turn out fine. The corruption can cause subtle problems that you may not notice right away. You're better off just heimdall'ing (or odining) the JFD to be safe, since if you do get the corruption that's where you'll end up anyway!
[Vibrant Android Development] dcchristopher:
Are you insinuating that we don't already love you? ;-)

Thank you for all the hard work ... Happy holidays!

P.S. No one (in their right mind) will hold it against you if you disappear over the next 6 weeks in order to spend more quality time with the family, especially in light of the holiday season. I'm just saying! ;-)
[Vibrant Android Development] hanbaoquan15:

eugene what happened to the 1.3ghz kernel? it worked perfectly fine for me but i just wanted to try the 1.256ghz kernel just to see the battery life difference. Now i dont see it, did you get rid of it?
[Vibrant Android Development] sifuquoc:
i'm getting random reboots with this kernel... setcpu force closes as well... any tips?
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:

What kernel were you running prior to installing this one?
[Vibrant Android Development] sifuquoc:
i was using the universal lag fix from team whiskey
[Vibrant Android Development] hotadef:
eugene what lagfix are you using with this your kernal to get 36hrs
[Vibrant Android Development] timsterzzz:
Eugene, any chance of getting a kernel with BLN support and decent battery life? I have become accustomed to the BLN. From what I understand there is no work around to adding it to phone without the kernel modifications, right?
[Vibrant Android Development] rolf90:
New kernel. ..on axura 2.04 loveeeeee it....amazingggggggggg
[Vibrant Android Development] hotadef:
Lagfix anyone

Anyone who is getting very good battery life with new kernal what lagfix are you using if any
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
I'm also curious, I'm using JFS overkill, but battery isn't as great..
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
In my personal opinion I don't believe the overkill lagfixes help anymore than the advanced lagfixes. Just my personal opinion though. I am using the ext4 advanced and followed the instructions here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=851969 - to remove journaling from all three partitions (/data, /dbdata, /cache). Removing journaling improves battery life and flash lifespan as well as optimizes I/O performance. First impression of this latest kernel is that battery life is truly awesome. I had one hiccup where everything slowed down suuuuppppeeerrrr bad and was really laggy... I rebooted and it hasn't happened since. All in all I'd say this is the best ULF kernel out to date and Eugene deserves more than just our thanks. ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] Sc0rp10:
for all those people worried about battery life, i believe eugene mention in one of his posts that you need to recondition the battery after every kernel flash.

I just wiped my battery stats and will post the results in a day's time.
[Vibrant Android Development] henreeg:
im getting alright battery life.

Might go back to stock.

[Vibrant Android Development] Sc0rp10:
lmao !!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
It seems after about 10 minutes of use on the new 1120_100 kernel everything slows down to the point I have to do a battery pull because its so laggy and un-responsive. Removed the lagfix and it still happens after roughly 10-20 minutes. I had setcpu 200-1120 on conservative. :( Oh well,

back to the first 1120 b kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] jumaaneface:
yeah i have had a few random freezes. for me its due to the undervolting.
[Vibrant Android Development] Whitehawkx:
I might have found a workaround for this. I installed one of the previous A kernels that supported the voltage app and only UV'd 400, 800 and 1000 by- 25. I set values and set on boot then rebooted into recovery and flashed the 1120_100 kernel. Seems very snappy and have yet to experience the mass lag/slow down. Checking the no oc box does limit overclocking if you switch kernels which is why I'm certain this works.
[Vibrant Android Development] krntehknik303:
every time I wipe battery stats the battery drains 1% automatically upon reboot.. wtf is up with that?

I tried to leave the charger on after wiping battery stats and reboot. Upon load its charging.

So, I don't know if its my battery or I'm doing something incorrectly?
[Vibrant Android Development] kennyp987:
If u want battery life u need to use the stock eb kernel its even better than the new kernel...i get 24 hours on medium/heavy use with auto brightness i miss the baklight notifications but the battery life is totally worth it :)

Vibrant + Macnut R12 + EB stock mod kernel + OCLF
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
The phone is pretty much lag-less, I finally started getting a good battery after I reconditioned, and everything is good!
[Vibrant Android Development] krntehknik303:
Eric's Stock Mod Kernel would be better?

I guess I'll try it out after today.. I want to see how this new B1120_100 Kernel works out in the end.
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
My fellow XDA-er...

You really should make sure to READ and UNDERSTAND everything that the OP states before you do anything to your phone.

This is so important.

It will save you time and headache every time.

Currently, the Team Whiskey ULF kernel is causing corruption upon flashing to another kernel. Heck, its the reason Eugene has been working hard to churn out corruption free kernels in the first place. It's all over the OP.

You know what else is all over the OP? Instructions stating that if you were running one of the bad kernels, you would need to ODIN back to stock first....before flashing the new 'B-Series' kernels.

In short; When you went from the 'bad' ULF kernal to the 'not-so-bad-and-corruption-free' ULF kernel, you doinked* your phone.

To resolve your issue, it appears that you will need to ODIN back to stock. Sorry, mate :(

*Yes it is a technical term :)
[Vibrant Android Development] jlaval:
All over the OP, r u kidding or what? Eugene does GREAT WORK but it's known for the criptic instructions...
[Vibrant Android Development] ilaf0106:
Hey you guys I found a way to get the fullest usage of you r battery! If you recondition your battery this way you will the best if your battery! I got goodresults after I recondition this way! Cheers!

The Latest Kernel is only supported for my Rom's... Sorry guys.
[Vibrant Android Development] dbacchus:
In the OP: "Fully Compatible with all 2.2 Roms To-date". Perhaps this needs to be updated then?
[Vibrant Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Hmmm....what makes it only compatible with Macnut? Trying it over Obsidian v42 for the past few hours, and will report back. Not that it bothers me, but you should update the OP for prevent the inevitable backlash from all the whiners lol

[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
Okay. I have a problem.

Granted this is NOT Eugene's ROM (Obsidian V5).

Anyway, I've noticed that this ROM charges when the phone is off and 'appears' to be charging when the phone is on, but the phone battery actually continues to diminish even when the device is plugged into AC power.

Gonna ODIN to stock and retry...or maybe I should just return to the first OB.
[Vibrant Android Development] Hawkularxda:
I have a question that I haven't been able to find an answer for through searching. So all of the frequencies are UV'd by -25 on the latest kernel. Are there any adb/terminal commands we can do to change the voltage? Say if I did not want to UV 1120 is there a command I can do to change that? Thanks in advance.
