Summary:
Well I went ahead and jumped into the Kernel world. This Android stuff is like crack lol While there are other great options as far as Sense kernels go such as Chad's I wanted to make one that I can call my own something that will be stable on all devices and is optimized for speed and stability while also providing good battery life. Going forward I will be using my own kernels with all 3 of my Rom projects.
Features Include:
Compiled from latest Htc Source Code: 2.6.32.17
BFQ I/O Scheduler NEW in #7
BFS Scheduler Only in #5 and #9
SD Card Speed Fix Patch NEW in #9

gracias mi amigo, you are the rom king! looking forward to pressing this kernel to max usage tomorrow.
LOU,
So far so good... surfed, played a little music, angry birds, and works nice.... tomorrow morning will be the big test... charging my extended battery tonight to see how long I can keep it going. With your red 2.1.3 ROM stock kernal I went with two full days. Not charging the phone at night inbetween. Moderate use of phone...emails, a few calls, music, etc...

hahaha not quite
Everything is very smooth. Like you said it would be. No need to overclock.
Quadrant scores are lower than usual. Usually means it will have exellent battery life. Dont base a kernel on quadrant scores. If you want better battery life then you want your scores to be lower. I'm sure that overclocking will get you better scores but will decrease battery life. So if everything is running smooth for you, then dont overclock just to get better scores.
think im gunna like this one lou!

[KERNEL] [2.6.29.6] [Flashable-.zip] [LAGFIX][BFQ][Oc][Uv] #3 "Patches 'O Klick"
So after countless hours of failure, I finally found my issue. It was an embarrassing one, but O well. What we have here is a fully stable kernel for the Vibrant. I have spent many hours on this and have been running it on my vibrant for some time now. Be sure to read the changelog for full info. At 1.2 Ghz I was getting MFLOPS scores pushing 10 MFLOPS! Performance is surely nice on this one. Another thing to note is the undervolting on my kernel. This will give optimal battery life for users. So, please enjoy, and post and errors with a logcat
This is compiled for the stock ROM. It will work on FrankenTwiz, Bionix, and many ROMs. Let me know what ROMs you try it on, and what ones it works best with.

This would be my first time using an oc/uv kernel. I know to get the oc, I have to go into setcpu and put the scaling to conservative, which I've already done. Ran quadrant, and got a score of 2790!
Great kernel!

This is gonna sound noob but here it goes. I've never done research on what exactly kernels are and this is all new to me.
This new kernel I can flash like Rom will over clock my device to 1.2ghz or will it give me the option to? Can overclocking hurt my device in the long run?
Does this come with tools to over and underclock when I need to?
Any other info would be great. I'm on Eugene Franklin twis v2, no voodoo or lagfix yet.
Any other info would be awesome.

Good to see you back, King! Do you think this will work ok on Eugene's Hybrid R3? Also, I know some Vibrants (like mine) didn't like jacs OC kernel. Same issues here, or did the undervoltage kernel fix it?

You should just be able to flash it through recovery. It's available as a flashable zip in one of Eugenes threads.

First off a big THANKS to Supercurio for Voodoo. These kernels supports/system/etc/init.d as all my kernels but there is no "pre-flash" needed in this case. Just flash the kernel and your good.
These kernels have been tested by many users for stability. You literally can't optimize a kernel during the compile process anymore than has been done on this kernel, optimized CT-NG 1.8.0 toolchain for the Hummingbird CPU and also optimizations during compilation. Almost every user has reported a notable battery life increase some users report amazing battery life compared to the stock Kernel.
~Version 1.1
~Updated OC/UV settings for even better battery life
~More VM tweaks
~S3 bug fixed
~More up/down threshold changes throughout CPU governers
~Tested multiple toolchain and make optimization options unfortunatly the difference in performance between them is very small. Stuck with previous setup.
~Based on the 09/06/10 Samsung Source Drop
" No Super secret lagfix because those don't exist"
~Amazing battery life through optimized UV/CPU tables
~More agressice up/down thresholds throughout CPU governers
~ Extreme OC/UV throughout the entire range but especially the freq's the Hummingbird processor uses the most based on the CPU tables for maximum battery life with a small voltage boost at 1.2 for stablity across more people's CPU's
~Modified CFQ governer is the "default"
~100Mhz, 200Mhz, 400Mhz, 600Mhz, 800Mhz, 1Ghz (OC) 1.2Ghz freq steps (Thanks Ivanmmj/Unhelpful)
~CPU tables optimized for "instant" clock up
~Bug fixes in perf tables (thanks Unhelpful)
~Kernel bulid optimized for cortex-a8/NEON using Level 3 optimizations.
~VFP3 and NEON support..this is available in stock kernels folks (but optimization for NEON is not )
~All stock CPU gov options available
~These are are included in the stock kernel anyways (Performance, Powersave, Conservative, Ondemand, Userspace)
~Interactive CPU gov still has bugs at 100Mhz so it was left out for an experimental branch and stability reasons
~VM tweaks
~CPU sampling rate adjustments for additional performance
~Allow small data to be kept longer in dirty pages
~Reduce volume of data written when write cache is flushed
~Anticipatory, CFQ and Deadline scheduler support (no-op removed due to high latency compared to the other schedulers)
~compiled with Cortex-A8 optimized CT-NG toolchain GCC 4.3.4
NOTE:For compatibility with all phones this does not automatically OC to 1.2Ghz per Unhelpfuls idea as not everyone can handle 1.2Ghz. Use a user script in the init.d folder with
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo 1200000 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
or setCPU to OC the Kernel to 1.2Ghz. 9.8MFLOPS is about what these CPU's average in Linpack at this speed. I've had it in the 10's and that may be coming back as another option.
Download the Overclock script here and make sure you put it in the /system/etc/init.d folder (right click and save with no extension for Windows users)
There are are few options to choose from: Regular Kernels with and w/out Colorfix and Voodoo Kernels with and w/out Colorfix
NOTE:Remember to rename Stock recovery updates to "update.zip" in order to flash through stock recovery
Regular Kernels with and w/out Colorfix
NOTE:For now V1.1 does not have a colorfix option due to some time constraints/Computer issues. I will get it posted as soon as I can.

Thanks to Supercurio, Unhelpful, Ivanmmj, Eugene373, and the entire XDA community. Let's keep the positive progress moving.
To be clear, when you say there's no need to "pre-flash"...
You mean init.d doesn't have to be flashed separately / first now, right?
I imagine EXT4 and Voodoo support are there too even though it's not listed?
Ready to Test.
Is this Kernel compatible with eugene373's(ROM) Frankin-Twiz ?
Any recommendations in the setcpu settings to get the maximun battery benefit ?
Thank you in advanced.
Can I flash this over Franki twiz? I have King's kernel currently with the Ftwiz...but I'd much rather work with JAC.

Exactly no init.d flash needed.
EXT4 support is of course there but Voodoo support is being worked on for beta5 ATM to bring 100% support/stability to T-mobile Android users.
This is something for people who want amazing battery life while waiting for a Voodoo based version of this optimized kernel. Or for those that just don't want to use Voodoo and just an optimized Kernel. (and I mean optimized...toolchain optimized for the CPU and CFLAG Level 3 optimizations as well..you cant "optimize" a kernel any more than this has been.

My 2 cents...why would it replace Voodoo? It's not a lag fix in and of itself. I asked earlier if it includes Voodoo but even if that's the case, I wouldn't consider it a replacement but rather a complement.
OT: Like your sig. However, I think Chicago's size might have actually something to do with it.

Correct this is not a replacement for Project Voodoo. This is more of a compliment like the user said above which may be combined with Voodoo beta5 once it is ready for Prime time.

Long time no see defconoi! There is already another version being blind tested with BFQ vs the optimized CFQ setup to see which one comes out one top.
Google apparently did the same thing for Froyo and decided that users experience with BFQ was not superior to CFQ according to user feedback. So I'm trying the same thing myself

Thanks Guys. That was basically what i was trying to get at.
Jac installed now. Seems super snappy. Im gonna rock it for a few hours and post results. As of right now my battery is sitting at 72. Im going to turn off 3g and see how well it saves battery life. I use overclock widget to set clock speeds with an option of underclocking while screen is off from 400 to 100.
Haha, "no super secret lagfix" made me laugh. I just mentioned that on King's thread about his "Super King Lag fix"

Thank you very much,
BFS is one of the worse schedulers. It gives good benchmarks scores but it's really slow. I suggest you switching to V(R) I/O Scheduler
The VR scheduler is include so iwill switch for the next release, thanks for the advice. I am try to patch to 2.6.35.13 (which is a massive chore, I must be doing it wrong), but it should fix the camera issues when done.

I'd like to see more feedback about this kernel as it looks promising. Thank you
Sent from my Nexus S using xda app-developers app
Kernel is good.. snappy.. nice performance..
There is no 1000mhz on the clock, so it's always on 1.24ghz ..
Pls add interactive governor.. I can't change the governor, only shows smartassv2 ...
Battery life not gr8.. But runs well.. power hungry games are smooth.. good overall..

This is inspired by SAMSUNG Infuse 4G, which use the same CPU and do not have 1.0GHz step in its stock kernel.
when there are both 1.24 and 1.0GHz, the governor will prefer to use 1.24GHz. And i thought it may help governor switch between steps faster.
so it won't eat more battery in this case.

I only built smartassV2(tweaked) into kernel. because it balance between battery life and performance.
There are also include kernel module of ondemand and conservative, you could load them by insmod if you like.
Thank you very much and must try it .

thanks for your kernel! i will try it now and report back
EDIT: unfortunately kernel doesn't work for me - i use it with paranoidandroid and rom was really sluggish at first (maybe cache-related...). then i startet setcpu for adjustments and the phone stopped responding with "colorful snow" on the screen. i pulled battery to reboot. - maybe my 9023 doesn't like 1,24 ghz (it is a bit picky, but 1,2 ghz at stock vol was never a problem).

yea, well, with stock kernel (and thalamus and matr1x and air kernel) everything runs fine, but i wanted to know, if there is a way to find out what exactly causes the problem with your kernel and my phone (which also might help somebody else). - raising the vol does not help that much, still some freezes from time to time (even though i'm above stock vols).
*** THIS KERNEL ONLY SUPPORTS SAMSUNG TW JB 4.1.2 ROMs (STOCK and CUSTOM). DOES NOT WORK IN CM or AOSP!!! ***
*** The Kernel is Safe (MMC_CAP_ERASE disabled) and the included PhilZ Recovery uses delete recursive and avoids brickbug ***
*** Stiil, I take no responsibility if the provided KERNELs causes any problem to your phone, you are warned! ***
Hello Friends,
I am no developer, just an Android lover. I share with you my first custom kernel for Note N7000 JB building from sources. It was made mainly for my hobby and my own needs, but hopefully can be useful to other members.
Forest-HelloWorld-Make-II kernel
As the name suggested, it is essentially a continuity of the C.O.H HelloWorld kernel.
FEATURES:
Features added by me:
- Implement r3p1 GPU driver to JB4.1.2 (from V2.0.0 (Credits and thanks to @GeeckoDev for this excellent work)
- OC OLED panel refresh rate to 60 (from V1.9.1)
- Remake GPU to 4 steps (V_1.9.0) (Very capable for gaming why maintain good battery life)
- Compile using Linaro toolchain 4.7.4.(12.2013) (V1.9.0) (it feels silky smooth)
- Update recovery to PhilZ Touch 5! You have a more beautiful and intuitive GUI. (from V1.8.2)
- Use LZMA compression (from V1.8.2).
- BLN support (only for V1.7.3)
- Enable OC CPU to 1600 (from V1.6.4 for OC CPU versions)
- Exfat native support (Now you can enjoy unlimited file size and fast speed on ext-sdcard)
- Kernel linux version 3.0.31, build using Ubuntu 13.10
- Toolchains: CodeSourcery G++
- Some optimization of the config file
- Su binary is updated to the latest version.
- Made three versions: 1) With OC of both CPU and GPU 2) With stock CPU and OC GPU and 3) With stock CPU and GPU.
Features benefited from C.O.H kernel:
- CPU Hotplug support from Speedmod kernel (only 1 core when not in load, battery friendly)
- Disabled logcat and dmesg and unnecessary Samsung debugging.
- UV capability.
- Increased Touchscreen sensitivity even when charging (Best touch response to date in Note).
- FSYNC Control 1 (from Ezekeel's GLaDOS kernel for Nexus).
- Tweak GPU in GPU OC version: 133, 267, 400 MHz (3 steps),
- Many cpu governors and schedullers: Defaults are Hyper-Row now (You can also tried noop-pegasusq as recommended by C.O.H)
- Fix for wifi drain on standby (disabled all multicast).
- Speedmod K5-3 fixes included
- Other features are the same as in c.o.h’s HelloWorld Kernel.
-------------------------------
HOW TO ENABLE LOGCAT (Only for V1.6.4 and lower!) .Credits to @hardcore:
If you want to re-enable logcat for whatever reason, do this:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
echo ANDROIDLOGGER >> /system/etc/tweaks.conf
mount -o remount,ro /system
exit
Reboot android system. Then can take logcat as you wish!
--------------------------------
The kernel is very smooth, stable and battery friendly.
CHANGELOGS:
HelloWorld-Make-II-V201-P:.
- OC-CPU
- Stock GPU
- Compile using uber toolchain 4.7
Excellent speed and good battery life. This is my current most favorite one.
HelloWorld-Make-II-V2.0.1:.
- Stock GPU and CPU.
- Compile using uber toolchain 4.7
Excellent speed and good battery life. This is one of my favorites.
- Change logs of other versions: see links in download section!
HelloWorld-Make-II-V1.9.0:.
- Remake GPU steps
+ Forest_HelloWorld-Make-II_V1.9.0_AM1 which is more agressive with GPU steps: 133-267-333-400
+ Forest_HelloWorld-Make-II_V1.9.0_GL2 which is more gracious, gentle with GPU steps: 133-200-267-333
- Disable UV interface.
HelloWorld-Make-II-V1.8.2:.
- Update Philz recovery to PhilZ Touch 5.
- Putting back logger module with option to enable it (for those who want to get logcat)
- Use LZMA compression
- Set default Governor to Pegasusq
- Update su and SuperUser to V1.94
- BLN dropped!
Bugs:
- The OC-CPU version has stock video bug the same as V1.6.4. Use MX video play instead!
- Recovery only accept to format internal and external sdcard using default format.
HelloWorld-Make-II-V1.7.3:.
- BLN support added.
HelloWorld-Make-II-V1.6.4:.
- OC CPU to 1600 (you can enable it using Nofrills or SetCPU...)
- UV 25mv for each steps, for balance performance and battery life.
- Include VR I/O scheduler, leave out Deadline
- Tweak thermal threshold (first level from 64 to 70, second level threshold keep the same).
Significant improvement for heavy games: I can play my favorite Let's Golf 3 super smooth now.
Bugs: stock video only play from gallery. Use MX video which is much better, btw.
HelloWorld-Make-II-V1.5.5:.
- Leave out some Governors, keep only 5: Hyper, Performance, Ondemand, Pegasusq, and SmartassV2.
- Leave out I/O Schedulers, keep only 5: Row, Sio, Noop, Cfq and Deadline.
- Padding zImage to the full size of the Kernel partition, 838808 bytes (Thanks to the trick by Chenglu and PhilZ!) this should help make the flash of kernel always clean.
- other minor tweaks
The new version is leaner, lighter. Should help improve performance and battery life!
For those who is on V1.4.5 it is recommended that you move to V1.5.5

It is harder than I thought building a custom kernel from source, and unpacking Initramfs from zImage. I am very happy I made it.
Try it our! I find it really good indeed!

My bad . Thanks for pointing that out. Links are corrected now.
forest1971, quick question. How can i edit mount points ? Example, /system is mounted in /dev/whatevah and i want to change that. Is it possible ?
You can find mount points in the guide in my signature.
Btw, the question is not relevant in this thread.

With speedmod k5-5 i m getin 5 hours with wifi on
---------- Post added at 04:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:01 AM ----------
I m getin 30 min screen on time for 15 percent battery level cost
This mean maximum i can get 4 hours screen on time
Please make speed mod k5-5 make 2
With updated recovery and with cpu governers and leave all same as it is
This will be a perfect kernel for those people who wna spend life little bit more with note without charge

Speedmod k5-5 seems to be the benchmark for performance and battery life. I suspect too many governers and schedullers may harm the battery life. I will make a new ones with only few of them.
Still, kernel takes time to settle down with rom. So it is still too early to judge. Cheers.
