Im shocked at this kernal! Is it oc? cause if not holy sh1t!!!! This thing is a blazing and I came from setirons and never knew a stock clock would run so smoothly!
[Captivate Android Development] trekie86:
Nope, not over clocked. Just that awesome.

Really? Im getting like 6%
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Is it theoretically possible that after Samsung will release source for KB1, a driver for the Audiencechip found in captivates to be included in the kernel? Sorry if my question sounds dumb, Im just starting to learn kernels :)
[Captivate Android Development] MisterAnthonyxD:

Seriously? I lose 6% per hour when I'm running PowerAMP. Maybe you have too much things running in the background.

[Captivate Android Development] existz:
A few different things can cause it, for me if I use kp1 modem I get 1% over 8-9hrs idel, if I use jl2-3 I get 7-8%.. also you could have an app syncing or something in the background, or an app using alot of cpu in the background...etc..etc.. also if I disable hspa and use only 3g I get way better results.. point is, its probably not the kernel causing it
[Captivate Android Development] sremick:
I'm losing about 10%/hour right now. And that's with hardly using it.

I've tried so many different ways to reset/recalibrate battery stats, etc. Nothing seems to help.

it's driving me nuts!
[Captivate Android Development] mindbullet:
Same boat here, but I noticed it gradually over flashing several ROMs. My conclusion is that the battery itself is just that craptastic over 6 months.
[Captivate Android Development] Sqb:
Try modems. I tried kb1,jk4,jl2&3, and kpn1. Call quality and idle usage varied with each. Also check what is running at idle and stop what isn't needed. Task killers won't stop them for good. Most need to be tibu frozen our actually pulled. My ebay and paypal were two that would always idle start and use in the background.

[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
KPN1 is my favorite so far. I've gotten some great speeds. Also, make sure that you are deactivating the HSPA if you are still getting battery drain.
[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
got 1 question would it make any difference in battery if i only deactivate the hsupa and let the hsdpa enable?

how do i force chargedeath? no matter what i do ive never had a charge or sleep death... not even with bad oc settings on other kernals...
[Captivate Android Development] xreflection:
Why would you want to do that...?
[Captivate Android Development] AtoZ0to9:
i read a couple posts that i said i should force charge death with this kernal to get better battery... dunno... im gettin bad battery life right now and i didnt before so i'm tryin to figure out is it the kernal or the rom...
[Captivate Android Development] ChikiBujia:
I'm not an expert at all, but in my experience, and based on what I have read in the forums, the battery needs to "adjust" to the new ROM or Kernel. After a few days, you will notice a better battery life.

I also did the following:

- Charge your phone all the way to 100% while it's on

- Unplug and turn phone off. Charge it again until it is up to 100%

- Unplug and turn phone into recovery

- Wipe Delvic Cache (not sure about the spelling there :rolleyes:) and Battery Stats.

- Reboot phone and plug it again until it reaches 100%

- Unplug and turn phone off.

- Charge again until 100%

- Unplug and turn phone on and that's it.

- I also let the phone die after this last step and then charged it all the way to 100% while it was off.

After these steps, I went from getting about 5 hours of battery life with heavy use, to 10 hours still with heavy use :D

Again, I am not a dev, just a regular user of these ROMs and Kernels, and I found that following these steps helped my battery :o

I aso read that you get a better battery life if you plug your phone when it's at about 15%, turn brightness all the way up, and play a video in a loop while it is charging until it is fully charged :confused:

Anyways, this is just what I've read around these forums. :p

Hope it helps :D
[Captivate Android Development] antonyfl:
agree. I have been trying to solve my battery woes for a while and I think I have pointed (not exactly but the general direction) to the problem. There must be some kind of app (after a new flash, a new restore from TiBu) that is keeping the phone from going into sleep/hibernate mode. Checking usage on battery (when it was horrible) I used the SpareParts app to check Battery history. "0" in the network used a HUGE amount of power and I could not figure out why (turns out UID "0" is just the root of the system) Uninstalled some apps, cleared some data and tried to run it again. Slowly after a discharge or 2 it got better. I checked the stats again, and now UID "0" is at a very low level, below media (which it should be)
[Captivate Android Development] NeidRider:
Same here. Great battery-usage, only lost 4% over night, with data on (2g, tho).
[Captivate Android Development] AtoZ0to9:
thanks for the tips everyone... been running the same rom and kernal for a little over a week... so ill try the other stuff... wipe the batt stats, let it die and charge while its off... check for the signal bug, etc etc
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
Yes, I've even had friends who state that they have been told to run their batteries down to 'death' at least twice to better calibrate the battery. I normally turn EVERYTHING on: max brightness, bluetooth, pandora, etc. All the usurping sources you can find. I also do the dalvik cache and standard cache wipe. I've been told that this gets great battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] krazyphire:
Agreed. I usually have to run my battery down at least 2 times before I can start averaging 20hr+ battery life. I don't really wipe batt stats anymore bc I just flash at 100%
[Captivate Android Development] MexicanAmerican:
Just flashed Speedmod yesterday for the first time. Out-bloody-standing work. Battery life is great (38% battery left after 13 hours, 32 min, 6s, screen has been on for 3 hours 33 minutes 1 second due to watching episodes of one of my favorite sitcoms, couple of hours of listening to music, fifteen minute phone call, fifteen text messages or so), and stability is rock solid.

Kudos, hardcore.
[Captivate Android Development] Aus_Azn:
This kernel, combined with SetCPU and its ondemand scaling, is giving me absolutely brilliant battery life. Kudos!
[Captivate Android Development] trekie86:
How did you use SetCPU with this Kernel? It doesn't support OC/UC?.
[Captivate Android Development] DiscipleDOC:
SetCPU does work with this kernel. It will oc, but it will not do it from boot.
[Captivate Android Development] ThePatient:
i flashed the kernel through CWM

shouldnt it say "speedmod kernel" somewhere in the "about phone" section of my settings.... right now it says im running 2.6.32.9.... is that right?

i flashed cog 4.1.1 first, let it boot, disabled the voodoo lag fix.... booted to recovery, flashed the I9088ZNKP1 modem(it shows that in about phone) and flashed the speedmod kernel from here, reboot, and here i am.... little help please

EDIT: and a little insight.... I have been flashing for a while... ive used cog, perception, darky steel, serendipity, andromeda, and others... but have never done a kernel swap or modem swap after flashing a complete rom... so im kind of new to using a different kernel than what is included... sorry for being a newb...

EDIT 2: i saw the signature from trekie and that answered my question
[Captivate Android Development] timn2bama:
I dont think kp1 will run with speedmod kernal. I might be wrong on this.
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
SetCPU can't oc/uv. It can underclock just fine though, as well as control scaling and profiles (ie. limit clock speed when screen is off/battery is low).

It will only underclock. And it should save settings for boot just fine, at least it does for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Aus_Azn:
Same here. I use it solely to underclock to 800MHz max, and 100MHz when the screen is off. Sets at boot just fine.
[Captivate Android Development] krazyphire:
KP1 will run just fine
[Captivate Android Development] Johnston212:
Lol, if it didn't then I should be in serious trouble. It's been the best modem I've tried so far.
[Captivate Android Development] dhostetter:
I've been using kp1 with speedmod for over a month. Probably closer to two.
[Captivate Android Development] jjbarisax:
the only problem I have is that I can't decide between pk1/jk4 and jl2. They are all very good.
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
I've been using JL2 for 2 months or more but decided to give KP1 a try. Download and upload speed is a little bit better than JL2 especially the download. So I decided to use KP1 instead. Been using it for a month now, suddenly I tried gps a while ago but it's somehow slow and even the signal is lost sometimes. So I went back to JL2 5hrs ago and gps is great and back to working condition. KP1 and JL2 are good in terms of battery life.

Ive been having few problems with adb in recovery latelly. If I dont push something in less than 20 seconds when in recovery, i cant push anything anymore. After push I cant enter adb reboot, it just sits there (sometimes i can but i have to be reaaaly fast) I tried Andromeda with its kernel and I could stay and play with adb how long i wanted when in recovery, with k13c i need to be speedy gonzalez :p
[Captivate Android Development] delugeofspam:
Using K13C to flash from Cog 3.04 to 4.0, I had the su symlink error that was in the initial release. The phone wouldn't boot. I got into recovery and pushed a fixed Cognitionv4.zip (150MB+ I believe) to the phone through adb and reflashed. I didn't have any connectivity issues.

Seek out a tool called usbdeview.exe -- it can tell you a variety of things about the devices connected to your computer, and might tell you if it's the phone or the PC "cutting the line," as it were.
[Captivate Android Development] :
I flashed Serendipity 5.12 yesterday morning with the Paragon kernel and the kb1 modem. It all worked well till mid day today, my phone just went into an endless bootloop. I finally got into recovery and changed from paragon to speedmod, still the same bootloop persisted. So I got back into recovery and changed to the jk4 modem and it stopped. I wasnt sure what the problem was, so I flashed speedmod kernel and back to kb1. Again with the endless bootloops. So I got back into recovery again and I switched back to jk4 (by this time Im on speedmod now, not paragon) and my phone was just fine.

So bottom line is, is that my phone lasted one day with an i9000 rom + i9000 kernel with the kb1 modem... then freaked out and I had to change to a i9000 modem. I cant use the kb1 modem with my current setup.

Sucks to, I really like the kb1 modem. Everything was noticeably louder and clearer.
[Captivate Android Development] delugeofspam:
KP1 = I9088ZNKP1 (Chinese Captivate)

KB1 = I897UCKB1 (AT&T Stock Froyo)

Frankly, I'm surprised either works well paired with an i9000 ROM, as they are both intended for Captivate. I can speak to exceptional clarity and data speed from KP1 in my area, but I couldn't tell you why it was ok with this i9000 reorient kernel.

I just flashed back to stock and I am install this via Odin. Now twice my screen just sits at the Galaxy S SGH-I897 screen and does nothing. How long should this take to reboot for the first time?
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
It can take quite some time... also, make sure that you are using the odin flashable version and not trying to install the CWM version via odin...
[Captivate Android Development] AmandeepG:
I have K13A currently installed. Do I need to do anything (like disable lagfix) before using CWM to upgrade to K13C?
[Captivate Android Development] agaruba:
No just flash directly
[Captivate Android Development] krufttangoud:
Read the FAQ. Just be careful.

Q: I am upgrading to a newer version of the SpeedMod kernel from an older version. Do I need to remove any lagfixes?

A: No. But a backup is recommended in case anything goes wrong.

Q: I am currently using One Click Lagfix. Do I need to remove the lagfix before installing this kernel?

A: Yes.

Q: I am currently using a Lagfix. Do I need to remove the lagfix before changing kernels?

A: If you are using a loop lagfix like RyanZA's One Click Lagfix (OCLF), you *must* un-lagfix first. But if you are upgrading from another Universal Lagfix Kernel or Voodoo Froyo 5, you don't need to remove the lagfix. However, it is always safest to remove the lagfix before changing kernels.

Q: Which lagfix do you recommend?

A: I recommend EXT4 All lagfix, with the SAFER ext4 mount option. Other lagfixes have a high risk of data loss if the phone crashes or is suddenly powered off or rebooted.

Guys, the kernel has reached a stable phase, what do you call development, new versions?

Will this work with my stock rom?
[Captivate Android Development] MexicanAmerican:
If by "stock" you mean the recent froyo (Android 2.2) update for the Captivate from AT&T, then yes, it should work. Just make sure to use an i9000 modem after you install the kernel.

If by "stock" you mean Eclair (Android 2.1), no, it won't work.
[Captivate Android Development] krazyphire:
Is this "improved performance" even tangible to most end-users? Doubtful at best. I'd rather stick with a solid stable kernel that I know has already been through all the the all the tests rather than one with placebo fixes (no offense intended). And really nobody is telling you to keep using this rom. Considering the rom you referenced is built on HCs achievements you might as well just use that.

Just saying.
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
That's not the point. The question was, "Guys, the kernel has reached a stable phase, what do you call development, new versions?"

My response was - and is - No, I don't call new versions "development". I consider attempts to improve performance - regardless of your opinions of them - development.

No one's telling anyone what to do. I simply answered a question.

FYI: This isn't a ROM, this is a kernel.

Just saying.
[Captivate Android Development] krazyphire:
Haha whoops just realized I typed rom instead. Oh well one way or another we can't tell if HC is just waiting for new sources to build a better kernel base or just for ginerbread. Only he can answer this question.

Lol I'm just playing. I also want to see this kernel keep going! Has the best battery life and smoothness of any kernel I've tried. This kernel paired with Dark 9.3 and KP1 Modem equates to guaranteed 30hrs+ of battery life and thats with real life usage and not letting the phone sit around like most people seem to do to get that number :D

While I'm by no means dissatisfied, the USB Audio fix would be a nice addition.
[Captivate Android Development] jellysweep:
I did something stupid. I did an odin 1 click stock/master clear in preparation for installing a new rom. I didn't realize that odin stock = 2.1 eclair, and this is incompatible. I flashed this speedmod kernel. It won't boot up, it just freezes at the samsung screen. I can get into recovery/download mode. Is there a version I can flash that is compatible with 2.1? Or how do I get back up and running?

Sorry guys... i know this was a dumb move...
[Captivate Android Development] perosredo:
Never watched any of his videos for longer than 45 seconds, but I very much doubt the error is his.

Why do you need SpeedMod on 2.1 when you're going to flash a new ROM over it anyway?
[Captivate Android Development] jellysweep:
Alright.... I got back into download mode, and did another 1 click odin/master clear. Back to normal on this front. Still don't know how that guy in the video didn't have the hang issue though....
[Captivate Android Development] jellysweep:
Hmmm... I'm not a phone genius. My understanding is that you need a kernel with CWM built in. That way you can flash a few zips before installing CM7. I'm back to working properly... will study the instructions and see if i did something wrong.
[Captivate Android Development] krazyphire:
Basic steps would be flash a 2.2 Rom like firefly that has the speedmod kernel already there. Then apply your CM7 zips.

But make sure you know what you're doing if you've already made a simple mistake that could be costly later :)
[Captivate Android Development] jellysweep:
So, I got it straightened out. This time around I didn't install the root after doing the odin restore/master clear. Also... I placed all the files in the root of my c:\drive to make sure spaces etc weren't an issue. Everything went through great. Up and running on CM7 now. Sorry for being the latest problem child :) lol
[Captivate Android Development] theMaDHakkeR:
All you really need is any of the 2.2 or 2.2.1 custom roms that are out. Anything that has ext4 and cwm. I flashed CM7 right from Paragon running Paragon kernel. Im not sure what your trying to do there but waste more time and risk bricking your phone.
[Captivate Android Development] disellusional:
did anyone ever test the battery life between this and k13a?
[Captivate Android Development] delugeofspam:
The K13 series hasn't implemented any features that would significantly affect battery life, apart from the option to disable the lowest automatic brightness setting.

Strange but I'm getting battery drain when using this kernel with Phoenix 7.0 or SN..

I was using Phoenix 4.5 before with with whichever speedmod version that came along with (assuming version 'T') and it had perfect battery life.

Don't know what happened but i'm just hoping for a new update now to see what happens next.
[Captivate Android Development] delugeofspam:
Clear your caches, wipe battery stats, bump charge and use your phone til the battery actually dies.

A kernel update won't change anything, as it is unlikely to have a breakthrough in power consumption. Even if it does, your phone is clearly having a battery problem that ISN'T caused by speedmod.

As existz said, if the sound is crackling when using bluetooth it is because of the modem is not compatible.
