[Kernel]Alternative CM6/Ruby Kernel - Droid Incredible Android Development

Hey folks,
It was requested of me to make a thread regarding this. I have compiled an alternative kernel for aosp based roms. It should work with any of them.
1.0
All governors enabled, interactive patched in, conservative as default
Anticipatory scheduler vs. deadline ins stock cm6
Supports wired tethering
Latest source (may be newer than cm6?)
tun.ko support for vpn
More will be added later.
Thank you Koush, for providing me the fix for screen tearing and thanks sniffle, for helping me with making the kernel work with aosp

Nice job buddy! Thank you! I'll give it a shot tonight.

oh hell yea.
maybe this will help all us aosp guys get a stable phone to use...

Just loaded it up. Will be back. To report.

Thats the plan

Any plans to get undervolt and oc?

Trying now, thanks...
Is there a place I can find the Stock CM6 kernal, in case I don't like this one? Ill report back in a little bit

Its slower than the CM6 kernal. I ran a linpack of 27 and quadrant of 1277. This was both running "performance" mode, and turning set cpu to the max which was 1000. I Am going to give it a try, maybe the battery life will make up for the performance loss. If not, nandroid here I come.

ditto request backup stock cm6 kernel

I just hope it fixes my WiFi shutting off constantly.

Seems to be really solid, a bit slower than cm-6 but also took care my screen flicker and haven't found any negatives yet (1.0+ hr up time) . Looking forward to some overclock variations. Thanks for the work adrynalyne.

Not sure what to tell you. The Sense version of this kernel has considerably better than that.

I wasn't complaining. I will take a slightly slower kernal thats rock solid and great battery, vs a quicker but less stable.. sorry I came off like i was complaining. I really appreciate all your hard work, thanks.

Oh I didn't take it as such.
I just don't know why
Unless the scheduler differences are doing it. Its possible.
Did you say that the top speed showed 1000 in setcpu vs. 998400?

unstable for me on 9/10 nightly wifi on and no setcpu, 3 random lockups/reboots in past 2 hrs

32.61 linpack and 1341 quadrant. Its not much slower than cm-6. @adrynalyn, do you plan on bumping up the clock speeds? Mine is showing 1000 max btw. Thanks again

1k max for me as well. 998 didn't seem to be an option.
I'm getting similar performance as I get with kernels i compiled from koush's source where i only changed cpu speeds for overclocking and udervolting. Not as fast as koush's even when i bumped it up to 1.19Ghz. Which i couldn't figure out why since i used exact same source

[REQUEST] Kernel

Hey all,
i am searching for something special, which none of the well known kernel designers could offer. I myself cant create kernels
Here is what i am looking for:
Device: Nexus FroYo with root
Kernel features:
OC: 1.13 GHZ
UV: 800mV
Audiohack
Ramboost
Is there anyone that could create a working Kernel with the given features?
Thx a lot
Tigger

It doesn't have OC but it's not necessary anyways. It has everything else you want.

im using intersectravens atm bfs .34 now...but it doesnt have OC
Froyo = pimpin'
With Froyo, you dont need OC... I thought I NEEDED it... but with SetCPU on active you'll see that the phone really only needs to run around the 245Mhz mark on the home screen and it'll rarely use all 998Mhz that it has...

Wait for Ivan to update his kernel. He's been MIA though. Maybe he's dealing with real life. Look for his kernels a couple pages back and PM him. Or maybe send an email.

I agree with not really needing OC on froyo but I guess its nice to have the option so here yah go
http://www.mediafire.com/?tzxwm0mjweo
Flash through the recovery menu or push to the phone just like you do with Raven's kernels but make sure you do a nandroid backup just in case something happens.
You didn't specify if you wanted BFS or CFS so I used CFS in this because personally I think CFS runs better overall on froyo.
(Although BFS really makes the launcher super silky smooth, it really chugs when I try to load Flash content in the browser but maybe this is happening to me only, I don't know )

I compiled it using the code that Raven publicly provides on his Github (latest as of 5/27/2010) and i added the overclocking code that you requested.
http://github.com/intersectRaven/ir-kernel-2.6.34/commits/master/
So it has everything that Raven's kernel has like the audio boost, 21MB ram, optimization flags, etc.
I decided to give this a try. Running great so far. Not sure if it's just a placebo effect, but it definitely feels snappier with that added .1 ghz.

Nice, glad to hear it working out well so far for someone. Yah, after testing this out for a day I notice the same thing, a little more responsive, linpack has increased from 36ish to around 40 and flash heavy sites load quicker.
I'll probably use this kernel in my phone now for everyday use but use SetCPU to keep it at 998MHz until I need that little extra boost.
(Reason being because in order to run at 1113MHz the AVS has to boost the voltage up even higher then usual to keep it stable.)
Hm. Didn't know that, the voltage. Thanks.

Ummm... didn't we test this out in some huge blind test of kernels and conclude that 950 gets better battery life than 800?

I guess there are those few who see better battery life when using 800 .
Personally I use 950 because 800 makes my radio erratically switch between 2G and 3G in my workplace which in turn causes a big drain on my battery. This doesn't occur when I'm home though, probably because I'm so close to a cell tower.

THANKS a LOT! Its working really good.
And to thos with the 950>800 opinion, i thought this at well, but, i testet so much kernels now, with my usage parameters and it worked better with an 800mV
Wildmonky, any chance you could also make an BFS Version?
I think you should give both kernels then to raven to add em to his repo! They are GREAT!
I was so much looking for this kernel!!!
THX a lot!

Here yah go. Still no changes from Raven for kernel version 34 so its still dated 05/27/2010 to match.

Raven really hates overclocking so this will never be in his repo. But what I might end up doing is compile and upload to mediafire when a new update is out, if there is enough interest in this.

Beasty2.2.1+Clemsyn kernel Combo 1.5ghz Fully Functinal version 2

WARNING: This contains an OVERCLOCKED kernel. Here it the link for version 2.

Please use PimpmyCPU to undervolt the Tegra CPU by downloading the latest version here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1018411
LMK of any issues. Thanks.
BTW here are the Overclocked Components of the kernel
CPU = 1500mhz (default = 1000mhz)
System/Avp/vde BUS= 266400 (default = 240000)
GPU = 400mhz (default = 300)
BTW, if you like my work, pls buy me a BEER
Clemsyn, thanks for your efforts. any chance of getting your Kernel for Adam CM7?
Well...
...what can I say. It´s freakin' fast! Very quick touch respons. 1500MHz does not seem to be a problem. I was not able to find the specific gorvenor you mention.
Only issue I´ve run into is the auto-rotate. When it rotate to portrait it won´t rotate back to landscape mode. Changing cpu freq. did not help. Actually it seems the sensor does not work, as it only rotate if an app forces it to change mode.
As for beer - alcohol is no good mate! Sorry.
I got a Quadrant score saying 3273, a number My adam has never reach before.
Everything is fast and has a quick and stable responsiveness and surfing the internet is a bless. I would love the HC to have these qualities, maybe you could join the team? Maybe you already are on the team
The 1.5GHz overclock is doing a nice job and there has been no issues.
Still an issue, the sensor to rotate screen.
Am I talking to myself?...
So PimpMyGtab is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895825
And with Data2Loop on the Quadrant score is 4384...!!
Meekos, chould you check video, especially 720p or even 1080p that didn't work well with standard kernel?
Thanks in advance.

Meekos,
I am currently trying to OC Adam's kernel but with no device at the moment, it's kinda difficult (but could be done). I built a new kernel (which will break wifi but needed to fix the accelorometer, I think). Here is the link, LMK how it goes

The speed is phenomenal...
OC 1500 UC 1150. Under 1150 it is too unstable.
But again what a speed!!
Battery is affected but well i haad like 4-5 hours with a full charge and left it at about 12 %...

Cyanogen8

Cyanogen 8? Is this next? Or is this in the works? Also is 2.3.5 next and would it be numbered a different version when Ice Cream comes out? Also is anything coming from the devs to overclock to 800 yet?

It's been done. So very very few phones are even stable at 800, and those that could generally performed worse in benches at 800 than at lower clocks. Many of these devices bootloop above 700.
Cyanogen 8 will not come out yet since will most likely be ice cream sandwich. I am not even sure is 2.3.5 will even come out and no the devs can not overclock this device to 800mhz because is 768 is the limit of the processor. Most people's phones do not even run that smoothly at 768 anyways. If somehow the dev found a way to overclock it to 800 (impossible btw but this is just a what if kind of statement) since the processor can not handle 800 it would just overheat the thing and cause crashes.
Also, on a side note, this should not be in the Development section. This should be in general or Q&A
This belongs in Q&A for future reference.
CM8 will be next, obviously. It will be based on Ice Cream Sandwich, so no, it won't be in development until ICS is released to AOSP so that the CM team can start using that code. 2.3.5 is an update coming out soon for the Nexus S 4G that fixes wifi and network speed, as well as adding more secure NFC for Google Wallet. It won't really affect us when it is merged into CM7. ICS is expected to be Android 4.0, but it could be 3.5 if Google decides.
There is a kernel that goes over 800Mhz, but anything over 768Mhz can be unstable on some phones. I tried it and there were no real performance gains, but battery life was a lot worse. Performance was actually worse at the highest CPU clock, in my experience. Just stick with 768Mhz. It's stable and chances are that you can get even better performance at a lower clock. I get better battery and performance at 633Mhz. It all depends on each unique phone.

I can confirm that the Godmode kernel was able to push some phones, such as mine, past 800Mhz. Although I had a faster processor speed, my battery would drain incredibly fast as well as overheat. Even though I never hit a bootloop with the kernel, the battery life, overheating, and loss of performance kept me away. Sacrificing too much for having a faster processor speed. Normally I overclock to about 729Mhz and have great battery life, speed and performance in conjunction with a min of 19Mhz and a smartass governor.

Yup, I'm at 806 - 19 ondemand while posting this and I can already feel it slowing down a little. 729 - 19 on demand is my best setup. I've tested a lot with trying higher setups than that but so far 729 seems to be the best for battery life and performance on every rom I've ever tried

Correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I've noticed is that newer Hero's that were sold with Eclair as opposed to the original Donut, when I bought mine, are not able to reach those higher processor speeds past 691Mhz.
Sent from my Hero that never dies! ;D
i bought mine at radio shack back in september and it was still on 1.5 and ive never been able to get over 768mhz without it freezing and bootlooping its different with every hero.
i stay at 352-691 ondemand and thats plenty fast for me
Mine was running 1.5 also and it will run fine at 768 but battery life suffers so I usually run at 352/710 and battery and performance are good (depends on rom kernel)
Where can I get the godmode kernel ....

I actually got mine two weeks after it came out.....so i mean it could just be that this phone is dead now. I never had a refurb or anything. I got it wet once but it got repaired. I've only had this one the whole time. Do you think that is the issue?

Hey rubyknight,
just wondering why 19? Ive seen people do that but can the processor really ever do anything at 19? if so, doesnt it affect stuff like wake. Im trying it now just to see for myself. Ive been playing with a really high min value between 480 and 576 with the high at 748 and it actually doesnt only seems to affect battery life a little, both on the .29 and .35 kernels on jaybobs roms and on OMFGB.
Thanks

Just the slightest UI lag... this is on jaybobs 7/8 with the .29 kernel, with background data off. And my regular usage which is not a lot. but for me its good. i wish I had tried it ages ago.

I believe that you can set the ramp up frequency and that may help with the lag. Setcpu, advanced settings, I think?

[KERNEL][AOSP][ICS] invisiblek-ics

New thread to house the custom kernel built with linaro's gcc 4.7.1 toolchain
This *should* work with any AOSP ics rom.
Just because this kernel is built with the linaro toolchain it does not mean the rom needs to be compiled in a certain way.
Download here: http://tinyw.in/gnOy
I'll add more details when i have some more time.
source: https://github.com/invisiblek/android_kernel_htc_qsd8k
toolchain used: http://tinyw.in/gYmj
General question on this--is this kernel intended to be used with the nightlies in your testing folder only, or are its benefits universal? I'm a little confused by this whole toolkit thing...

Good question. This *should* work with any ics rom.
I tested this out last night (been running mamarley's kernel) and I ended up switching back for two reasons: first, this doesn't appear to have the 128MHz CPU speed - I'm not sure if that's intentional or not. And secondly, my phone apparently couldn't handle this kernel on 1113MHz - I got lots of FCs. And the rating on Nenamark was essentially the same as my baseline on other kernels.
Just some observations - and your mileage may vary! I really appreciate the fact that this is even being worked on, invisiblek.
EDIT: Totally meant AnTuTu, not Nenamark.

Great to hear feedback. Thats all im looking for here really.. It doesnt have 128mhz because its the same voltage as 245 hence no real benefit to having it. Plus some devices are unstable there. I never overclock but i can look at the voltages and maybe get 1113 stable
I can say it works on the new ICS TW rom, drains kinda fast although I think its rom related only.
I had only one reboot, got a freeze and then 10 seconds later a reboot. Its the only one I've had since reapplying new settings.
On freeze I was running SAv2 1113 Max/245 Min.
I have now lowered it to 998 and its running fine on that rom.
Other than that, its amazing.

i take this back, 128mhz is 25mV under 245mhz here
never mind
Can you clear up the linaro tool chain for me, I'm confused as to if the ROM currently utilizes it... and if so is there a certain kernel you have to use along side it. Sorry if that's a stupid question...

Does this have fast charge?

I think so, based on this commit below I'd say yes:
add smb329.c for fast charging when plugged into usb
I'm getting some pretty great battery life with this kernel and the 6/21 kang. 1 day and 9 hours after moderate use and I'm still at 30%

Good workaround (Kernel/Firmware) against overheating?

Hello guys I got some huge problems here.
I recently switched from my Z2 to the Z3+ and actually like the phone but the overheating is insane and especially kills Pokemon Go through CPU throttling, which runs smoothly on my old Z2 .
So far I am on 253, cleaned it up and tried a self modified and the zach beta9 Kernel and and runs quite bad on both. Is heating a lesser issue of 224? I actually do not want to reflash the whole system to 224 just to find out it doesn't get better.
Also is there a way to undervolt/underclock? I can change settings in Kernel Aduitor but I have the feeling the phone doesn't really care.
Help much appreciated - thanks!
Try Zach beta 8 kernel. Limit max cpu frequency by kernel auditor.
Still it's only your Goodluck if your device cools down. It's a bitter truth about this model.

Do you have a clue whether 224 or 256 make a difference?
I will try beta8 and report back.

no there was no thermal improvements between these builds, dont flash your system back
but do underclock and tell us the results!
Im also affected by your exact problem
Try this kernel, seems promising. I haven't tried it since it doesnt have twrp.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...m5z-kernel-t3421630/post67813517#post67813517
Edit: Today I have flashed 256, haven't found any improvement. As per my experience 256 haven't brought any noticable change.
**** posted twice and dont know how to delete
Thank you for the replies!
Tested zach beta8, didn't help. Now I am testing http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/orig-development/kernel-om5z-kernel-t3421630/ as suggested and if that doesn't help much also with http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/general/kill-overheating-flash-zip-t3421782.
And Stamina Mode helps at least a bit.
Statusreport: It always runs bad. But best at the moment with root patched Stock Kernel (253) and that underclocking zip. Although I think that underclocking doesn't really help at all.

What are your temps? When does it start to throttle? Done any thermal-conf configuration to allow more heat?
---------- Post added at 21:03 ---------- Previous post was at 20:58 ----------
I know that @Trilliard has a very good and stable cpu governor where he has disabled two of the little and two of the big cores, this helps a lot if you underclock the remaining 4
Here are his files:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/general/dont-custom-kernels-want-to-avoid-idle-t3409647
UPDATE: Added my edited files used to apply CPU tweaks (cores down clocked to 0.9 and 1.2ghz, two core disabled, tweaked cpu governor, power and others mods) and these files located in etc folder. Replace them and set correct permissions then reboot.

Actually I didn't know about this combination - I will try it thanks!
Do you know about a thermal-conf? Actually never tried one. The phone gets hot indeed but I still think there might be some space before it actually melts.

Thats what i thought as well i have my own here, its based on another persos post, but i dont remember where...
Anyways, his camera mod worked, but cpu throttle was not tampered with, and it caused a very unbalanced throttling... Ok yay i can use the camera linger and fluently, but when i exit the camera app, i cant use the phone couse its runnig at 348 mhz...
So i i did some modifications to it cpu never get under 840 for little cores, so your phones menues end web browsing are always safe from performance drops.
I made it to be able to play Pokemon go, and achieved a lot better resault than without any changes.. still prefer playing on my shield tablet, but if i dont have it around when theres a lot od pokestops nearby, then this will work for me.
While playing Pokemon go it does not go over 80 degrees, but using snapshat it can get to 85, so dont use snap for to long
Let me know if it worked for you!

Oh nice! Thank you a lot! I will totally try it out directly when PTC comes back alive. X)
What kernel and governors do you use?

Im using stock kernel, may switch to another soon. Im using stock bcause of batterylife and idle power consumption
Im using the governor and cpu modifications in this post ; http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/general/dont-custom-kernels-want-to-avoid-idle-t3409647
Hmm. Still runs ****ty.
Can anyone give me a short guide how to edit thermal and governors?
According to my observations the phone gets hot and then cold. I think the throttle is more aggressive and needed and I want to make it less aggressive.
Update:
I made my own modifications to the thermal engine. It is pretty bad for battery I guess but I had a very good expierence playing Pokemon Go with it today. Yes the phone gets hot. Like it doesn't drop below 70°C while playing and regulary hits 80°C but it works good. No dark screen, no 0 CPUs downclocking. So far it's fine for me, maybe I get squeeze even more out of it.

Done any other modifications to your file for a while? Or is it working good for you now? What's your SoT?

Still working good for me. Not sure if I can really squeeze out more and as long as it works at the moment I do not have a good motivation to try anything else.
No idea about SoT. Always running around with a powerbank. Probably bad, it is not designed for good battery life.
