[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
Thanks....I'll do that for the version u release that has BLN. :D I like this friendly to and fro between u guys.

So far bilboa's BLN patch seems to work fine for me on i9000, not sure why some are experiencing problems, maybe I'm just not trying to make problems appear in the right sequence.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Steyux:
Just experienced a reboot while opening a normal mail in gmail... But I can't reproduce it :D I'm using the kernel with lastufo flags :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
Not sure if this is kernel related.

Previous charging behaviour on CM7 is like this :

We charge, and if battery temp gets too high, it stops. Once it goes below the set temp, it begins charging again.

Now, once it hits above the set temp, it stops charging. It does not regain charging even when the temp drops to a safe level. This makes charging overnight useless, you just get a lower battery level in the day.

Yes, we know about the battery not hitting 100%, that's still acceptable. But to have no charging occur even when plugged into a charger? That's just funny.... :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
If you want an extra bit of juice just disconnect and re-connect, it will go up one or two per cent...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
No...u don't understand. i don't need more juice.

For example, I'm charging now, starting at 70%. It hits maybe 80+%. For some reason the temperature goes up. It stops charging due to the temp limit. When the temperature goes down, it doesn't resume charging to hit the limit, be it 94 or 95%. It just continues draining like normal.

So in the morning, when I unplug, I have something like 40-50%. Then what's the point of charging?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I understood that, thats why I wrote the other day that we shouldnt leave this phones charging overnight, Samsung put the beep warning there for a reason, I dont know why CM7 doesnt do the same... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
It's not the beep, it's the fact that it's not resuming charging that's the problem.

I'm running Gingervillian on Desire, it's based on CM7 as well. First, it hits 100% without problems....but I can live with 9X%.

On Gingervillian, if the temperature drops below the safety limit, it resumes charging. It hits the max percentage, it stops charging and lets it sustain itself. After some droppage, it resumes charging, trickle charging it. At least in the morning one is assured of at least 90% percent.

As of now, on the CM7 on my i9000, if the temperature limit is reached at anytime of my charging, I can be sure the next day I will be seeing a battery level less than it was when I plugged it in.

You're also confusing my posts. I'm not talking about the beep or it's related battery level. I'm talking about the phone not resuming battery charging when it has fallen below the temperature limit. It's 2 separate matters.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
How is it in Samsung ROMs... :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
Can't even make it hit the temperature limit in Samsung roms.... :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] derrzredeem:
i can confirm this also, i'm using bilboa1's kernel atm.

not sure if this related to the kernel, or maybe someone with stock kernel could verify it ?

if i can remember correctly, this behaviour wasn't there in <2202 build.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
Yeah, that's why I'm posting this in the kernel threads first, or I'm gonna get blasted in the CM7 thread. :D

i made some touchkey fixes with timeout in a separate commit if u wanna pull it and test. im not sure if that works on non-sgs however.. will see reports.

such a small feature.. but im happy when it works lol. also makes BLN work properly ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:
Flashed latest stable kernel, and lost my wifi connection, now it stay on "obtaining an IP address from" forever, then it says "disconnected" and try to connect again my himself repeating it in loop.

i also noted that when i toggled off, the wifi tick box on the settings is ticked while the notification bar is clearly showing it disabled.

when i tick/untick the box it actually stay disabled, when enabled it behave normally, scanning, finding networks, but impossible to actually connect to a network.

latest stable kernel

latest CM nightly

Any idea ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] harrismc:
Having some issues getting update-cm-7.0.0-RC0-GalaxyS-KANG-signed_20110320_16-default-res.zip to work.

Using Voodoo Advanced kernel right now with CWM recovery v3.0.0.5 - voodoo lagfix.

When I install the update I get:

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "galaxys" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "galaxys" || getprop("ro.product.board') == "galaxys"
E;Error in /sdcard/update.zip

Do I have to flash back to the stock Samsung kernel before installing this?

i tried changing value on voltagecontrol and it freezed and reboot ..now i am stuck in boot screen w/CM logo. How can i fix it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
Hmm....the latest kernel with BLN doesn't have the button backlight timeout?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
I think he made this kernel before bilboa1 released his newest, so it is not implemented yet.

I have higher battery drain than before, and I checked my processes by typing top in emulator and there is nothing that is eating up my battery. I think that oc didn't gave us much more speed, but I am pretty sure it gave us battery drain (at least in my case, because that was the case with 2.2.1 roms also). I will try to do 3-4 full cycles of charging but I am not sure it will help me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
Waiting for the timeout to be implemented. :D

Yes, I never really had much positive experiences in UV/OC.....in the end, even if implemented in kernel, I usually let it stay at stock values.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
Yeah, I let it at stock (1000mhz, just uv - about -50) but anyway I think that it is draining more battery, at least with my experience (not sure).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Arkanius:
I feel my battery draining more with this kernel than bilboa's

Not sure what it is, I have the same application and process use on both

Wifi is a big drain (Do not forget it doesn't go to sleep, the only thing that was fixed was the fact that it crashed when it was told to go to sleep)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
you're using the latest kernel ?

when I find some time I'll give that a try & test if it crashes - looks like a nice RSS feedreader

thanks !

thanks !

I'll add this with the next kernel

just in case: have you already pushed the commits ?

thanks again :)

works for me :o

in most cases if it works in a broader user-base - it's an issue with the system

you're using the nightly from 03/18 ?

thanks !

thanks for the hint :)

I don't think bilboa1 would use the resulting kernel :p

he more tends to like kernels closer to vanilla/AOSP

yes, friendly competition is great and keeps the development pushing forward ;)

thanks !

thanks !

this looks familiar

Voodoo Advanced kernel ? :confused:

yes, it probably would be best to go back to stock Samsung kernel (flash via Odin & pit-file; 3 separate files)

then please follow the steps to install CM7 exactly like pointed out by codeworkx

[All Models] CyanogenMod 7 for Samsung Galaxy S Phones - EXPERIMENTAL

thanks !

well OC/UV is really a double-edged sword:

try to do a factory reset/wipe and see whether that fixes it

sorry for any inconvenience caused

yes that could be the case, but (theoretically) it should be included since I pulled the changes in afterwards

seems like git is to blame since it still says there are no changes even if there are - something wrong here

gotta re-clone the repo ;)

I keep it at 1 GHz - the gains are noticable in benchmarks but I don't really need it right now and for that I also would have to experiment with values to get 1.2 GHz stable

thanks !

I'll add it yes,

strange thing is that git says to be that everything is up to date :confused:

maybe I gotta re-clone the whole repo :p

my experiences where great good in the past with laststufo's SOKernel

thanks !

I can't say anything about that yet but it really shouldn't consume more,

I've also limited to 1 GHz

thanks !

really ?

it more sounds like that it kept on creating interrupts and thus keeping on polling / nagging the CPU or other parts to stay alive:

thanks !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:
I'm on Bilboa Kernel and while it was working just after the flash

it suddenly stopped working while i was installing apps from the market !!??

simply no more signal, so i manually toggled it off, then ON again, and now i'm stuck has before "Obtaining IP address..."

Yes i 'am on 0318 :)

EDIT: rebooted and now it's working again has normal.:confused:

will move to your kernel now and see if this times it works for me !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
Yes, definitely. I was surprised when I woke up with the kernel labelled laststufo and battery was at 80% instead of the usual 60+%.... Wonder if BLN support is too battery draining?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] buzzworkers:
it's the second time i download it, the file seem to be corrupt or something, can't manage to install it i get this : (bad) installation aborted.

trying again.. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
Is it possible the add the button backlight timeout patch to the lastufo kernel? It's one of the best of yours so far, and I really love the backlight timeout feature on bilboa's

It's possible to live without BLN, but the BLN patches seem to introduce more trouble than it's worth. I'm experiencing a higher than usual random reboot rate on the kernels with BLN, and it's getting rather irritating.

Unplug after charging, reboot. Finished syncing Feedr, reboot. Plug in pc via usb, unplug, reboot.

Just asking, thanks for reading. :D I know it might mean more trouble down the road, but I had to try. Of course, if the backlight button timeout patch is directly linked to BLN then maybe it won't be possible. :( Again, I know nuts, so I'm asking.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vukandric:
+1 for this. BLN is cool, but I also think it is not stable atm. Backlight timeout would be great. :) Anyway, thanks again for your work. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
good luck !

that doesn't sound good & it sounds familiar

last time I had this - afaik I had to re-apply the system-update from Sourceforge / codeworkx,

then factory reset/wipe reboot (just in case) and apply the kernel-update

otherwise it would keep on showing that error

hope you'll find an easier way to apply the kernel

:eek: shocking that it's that unstable

sure, I'll see if I can get it to work,

first I release a kernel without any BLN

this should help to get a longer battery runtime again

if you UV & still get a bad battery runtime I might have to think to remove it & create separate OC/UV kernel releases :(

that's the reason why I removed BLN for following kernel

I'll take a look at the button backlight timeout thingy later
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] boarder.2k9:
Not trying to promote any other kernel or anything but in response to bln not being stable, check out the latest kernel from bilboa:

http://kang.project-voodoo.org/f/CM7/GT-I9000/

Its 99% stable for me.

Edit: Install the kernel, then reboot. I found the bug i had was fixed after the reboot from the 1st boot on install. Wierd but worked :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
you did notice that my latest kernel does NOT INCLUDE BLN at all ? ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] leomak:
i tried factory reset but no help. I flash older kernel and it can boot...but whenever i flash back the latest one with OC/UV support, it can't boot again. I guess the Oc/Uv setting got wrong.

How can I revert the setting without getting in voltage control app?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
I'm not sure if it's BLN that's the cause, but even without the reboots, the buttons losing functionality is irritating.

But bilboa seems to have come up with a new implementation, maybe u can trawl his thread and see if you wish to adopt it.

Meanwhile I need my phone operational, so urs lastufo is in there for me....for now. :D

Oh yes, one thing to add on, for those who are also experiencing random reboots, I find that wiping both dalvik cache and cache seems to aid somehow....so it might not be kernel related.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] melorib:
I always had crashes when I enabled BLN on 2.2.1 Doc / SpeedMod, and never worked properly, maybe dependent on phone... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
I never had a single problem with BLN on 2.2.1 with speedmod..... :D

Is it normal that touchkeys lights up when pressed with the screen off?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
the last one should be pretty similar to the one called "laststufo" - it adds OC/UV support on top but should be perfectly stable - even when undervolting

give it a try

thanks for that info (the bold marked text)

next time I might run into any reboots I'll try that

that's probably better suited in the main CM7 thread

didn't try that theme yet

the latest kernel is stable for me ;)

concerning updated kernels: it's already up-to-date - only the nightly (from codeworkx) had to be updated

the next one probably will have support for higher battery charging temperatures - I'm however not sure if that's a so good idea

but if it works with Samsung it also should work with CM7/AOSP - right ?

yes, perfectly normal

thank god that works - otherwise I would have unnecessarily re-flashed my phone several times (showing you something's still intact ;) )
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
Thanks...still waiting for you to hack the button backlight timeouts without BLN causing havoc. :D

The button backlight activated when screen is off shouldn't be normal. Unless u meant it's normal for now and will be changed in future? Unless there's a notification, the buttons shouldn't light up when touched when the screen is off.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
I'll ask bilboa1 - he already had that part enabled / a patch afaik - that should be fixable fast ...

ah - I now "get" what you mean,

when the screen is locked and you're touching the softkey buttons then it's NOT lighting up

yes, that should be the normal case

I was thinking of bootup & the screen staying dark or other situations where the phone is supposed to show something on the screen but something's broken - in that case the buttons will light up

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
superficial error report == no care :D

please provide more information:

- what kernel version are you using ? (some people are referring to latest and using some older stuff)

- what nightly (the system)

- what modem

- what phone (i9000 ?)

- software that triggers those reboots

- any troubleshooting from your side ?: e.g. wipe dalvik cache & cache - helps ?

- nandroid backup & factory reset/wipe ? helps ?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
new OC/UV settings:

please set at 100 MHz to -125 mV

this should really boost your battery runtime

thanks to bilboa1 for this find !
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] He4dShOt:
I meant the latest kernel * CM7_SGS_platypus-kernel_20110325_21_update_no-BLN.zip (3.64 MB) (no-BLN release; STABLE)

Anyway the phone is I9000 with 03182011 NIGHTLY and radio is JQ1. I didn't do any type of reset, I just switched back to 23rd march kernels which was ok.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] strickyy:
im kinda a noob with overclocking'n stuff, will this be preset in ur next kernel?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
no unfortunately not :o

since no phone is the same

and where this might work for bilboa1's and/or mine it might lock up your phone

so the default values are preserved

you need to use Xan's VoltageControl app for that:

Voltage Control

<-- link to appbrain with screenshots

the handling should be pretty straight forward however

good luck !

edit:

FYI:

so for example it's not stable for boarder.2k9

making the -125 mV default really would be a bad idea
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] strickyy:
Why aren't my frequency's the same as in that table? Are they different for every device? How can i know how to set them then?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
??? :confused:

the frequency voltage are not interesting for you as a user

the ones interesting are:

set them manually

yes, the values could be different for each device

keep in mind that the circuits in our phones are really small and that in those sizes errors might occur more often

so some devices OC (overclock) better - some undervolt (UV) better

that way you have to find the values that suit best for your device

you don't mean how but which values, right ?

by making stability-tests:

1) running benchmarks, games, browsing the web, opening links, watching videos, etc. etc. for at least 30 minutes or 1 hour

2) doing everything that you normally also would do with your phone but on an on-going basis (e.g. for 1 hour)

after that you can at least be sure that it should be stable
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st3chn0:
is the oc/uv in the 25032011 kernel?

i downloaded the kernel when it was released n it had no mention oc/uv at that time
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
it should be easy for you to figure out ;)

if Xan's VoltageControl says BAZINGA ! (which can also occur with supported kernels) & after the 2nd and 3rd start still the same - it shouldn't support it ^^

you mean the one marked STABLE & no-BLN ?

short answer:

that definitely has OC/UV support - it's currently running on my phone & really stable so far

Hi there,

Not sure whether this has been asked for before but would it be a problem to add CIFS support into this kernel? It's an incredibly useful feature when you've got a phone with only 22GB of storage total and a server with 4TB :P

Many thanks in advance, CG.

P.S love both CM7 and this kernel, didn't realise how much I value the additions till I forgot to flash Platypus after a nightly CM7 update.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
FYI:

For those who want to know at which cpu frequency (e.g. 400 MHz) your CPU stays most of the time (or 2nd, 3rd most)

there's a nice tool available from storm717:

[APP] CPU Spy - view time in state info

if you, e.g. know that your CPU spends lots of the time at 800 MHz you can try to undervolt that frequency more (don't forget testing stability with benchmarks, etc.)

or find out first of all - what program might be keeping the CPU at that frequency

very useful ! :)
