[Q] Semaphore 0.9 and BLN - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I use Team ICSSGS RC4.2 with Semaphore 0.9 (and 0.8.x before) for quite some time now, and very happy with it.
I even have BLN working with enabling it in NSTools.
My problem is that every time I have the phone restarted for ever reason there is, I get a boot loop, until I clear NSTools settings in recovery mode.
Does anyone have any other way to have BLN without the use of NSTools?

I did try it at first before NSTools and it didn't work.
But I'll give it another try...

[Q] How to get back light on menu + back key on MIUI when I have a notification?

Hi
I'm running GALNET MIUI v6 VERSION, BASED ON OFFICIAL 1.7.22 - 22/07/11 - STABLE. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1134583
Earlier the soft keys (menu and back) used to lit up when I had a notification, like a LED light. Now this doesn't happen anymore. Is this a setting, or is it simply not possible anymore?
Any fix to make this happend would be greatly appreciated!
I'm posting this here, because I don't have enough posts to post it in the galnet thread.

If I switch to the glitch kernel, will I loose any features, or would the battery drain increase etc? Is it a complex procedure to switch kernels?

(Q) kernel

Hi, i really confused about flashing kernel to OB v20b.....
Can i flash kernel from the othee version from v20s or 20o...
I want to use diana kernel or marvel kernel but it based on gb 234 v20o
Is it possible to flash these kernel.?
Please help, maybe someone can explain to me and i really appreciate it..::
I am just want to help my friend build his OB

This is exactly what I want to do. I mean flashing Diana kernel to V20b middle east stock rom. Of course we should somehow bring Zeus tweaks settings menu to this mixture
Come on Huexxx !
Why dont you just:
1. Backup your current ROM via recovery
2. Flash Diana kernel
3. push Zeus app on the phone, or install Zeus ROM, back it up with Titanium Backup, restore your backup, flash Diana Kernel, restore Zeus app and maybe you also will need some additional files from: /system/Zeus
If it works, cool, if not, unbrick it with smartflash tool and restore your backup and your back to normal within 10 minutes.

Even latest releases and corresponding middle eastern patch could not match great customization that LG have done to stock rom for this region.
I mean proper right to left menus, keyboard, dictionary, calendar & more. So if I somehow want to benefit from excellent custom rom like Zues, I have to use stock rom that comes with all that localizations and a custom Kernel like Diana.
Thanks

Any reason to change kernels in CM10?

I'm running CM10 nightly, and wondering if I will gain any performance improvement (without OC) and longer battery life if I flash one of the alternative kernels on XDA (looking at Devil and Semaphore as those seem to be the most popular)?
yes and yes, but it all depends on how you configure the kernel options and how you use your SGS...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
yes, definitely!
but to get the "best" result, of course you have to let it settle for atleast 3 days..
here is a youtube link on how to flash them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCBN-_zu5cY
i hope this helps,
cheers
Thanks for the answers. I was hoping for recommendations, do you have any?
Semaphore is looking good to me. Opinions?
I'd go with semaphore for ICS...
But for CM10 I'd use Devil..
But that's just me
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2
If you want stability then semaphore.But if you want more tricks to make your phone even faster it is devil of course. There is one more kernel to try Mackay.
Test each to get the right one for you.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Semaphore is the one you need .
What else from having great speed with stability. Yeah, maybe Devil could provide some more speed, which is unnoticeable, for me at least.( except the benchmark tests )
Sema is the most stable one.
But devil isn't bad too.
Try them. But give your phone about 5 minutes after flashing and don't be frustrated when it's a bit laggy after first reboot.
Last days I tryed makay. --> I prefer sema
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
I prefer devil. My phone still lasts a whole day (7am - 12pm) and is much faster. I like all the options.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
On JB roms i always use the devil kernel even if the Semaphore is a very good kernel, Devil kernel allows me to entirely use my phone's habilities with no more battery drain than Sema
you will instantly notice more speed and smoothness with flashing semaphoer kernel.
+ more speed if you set up liveOC to 114%
Does anyone have any links? I'm using CM10 nightly and need a kernel so that BLM and Voodoo sound will work. I tried the latest semaphore 2.8.0 via Odin but the phone would not boot.

You should read the description more carefully. The 2.8 kernel is for JB 4.2 not CM10. Flash the 2.6.5 kernel.

You don't have to flash a rom if you're happy with the one you're using. And you can download .zip's and flash in CWM if you like, but I've found that the only times I've ever got into a boot loop when flashing a kernel are by doing it this way. Not that it has happened often. But for that reason, i prefer to flash my kernels .tar in odin, I've never had a problem doing it that way, but whatever way you choose to do it take a nandroid first, just in case.

Download semaphore manager app if you haven't already done so. Also, if you used the (s) version, you need to make sure and select the bigmem option in semaphore manager and reboot for settings to take effect. Then you have 403MB RAM.

Semaphore works just fine on 2.9. look in the dev thread and read a bit about the features. Devil works just fine also and has tons more features. Again, take the time to read mainly the OP's of the associated threads to figure out which additional config apps to use and how the features work. Utilize the search function if necessary
Semaphore http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1816087 Choose the sc (slim captivate) version .zip and flash in recovery
Devil http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1811313
Devil downloads are located here. http://rootaxbox.no-ip.org/derteufel/jellybean/Cappy/181/
Choose the .zips of either the CMC (cyanogen mod color) or VC (voodoo color mod) and flash in recovery.
Don't use the .tars unless you plan on flashing with odin
Now that i've spoon fed you the material, i hope you take my advise and do some reading, otherwise i or someone will try to assist you in unbricking your device

Which kernel you are using?
you may try this,
1) reflash the rom with full wipe.
2) if you are overclock the OC clear int.d and NStool setting or using kernel cleaning script
note: only use one kernel setting apps ( e.g NStool , semaphore manager and +++)
If you are using semaphore kernel try not to use NStool setting and semaphore manager.
Hope this will help. :fingers-crossed:

i think the problem is the app of the sim card, because sometime it disappear from the drawer. This app is named "kit strumenti sim" (in italian) and is a default app...
I kinda have a similar problem with the OP. Except, my SGS (running CM10.1) only random reboots if I'm using another kernel, other than stock (mostly, I tried with Semaphore, diff builds). Any ideas anyone?
I would really like to use Semaphore, due to its deep idle and other options.
Sorry if I off-topic'ed here!

if you flash semaphore kernel(2.9.++ is for 4.2.++ ROM) and reflash the cm10.1 rom yor kernel will change to cm10.1 stock kernel.
so the step should be flash the rom and reboot to recovery and flash the kernel you like. for me flash a new kernel i will clear the NStools settings and init.d directory from advanced clear before i flash any new kernel.
