[Q] how do we test kennels ? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys (you guys are the Jedi's in the world of Android).. My sgs i9000 is on the Dark Knight ROM based on ova 4.0.4.. Currently using latest devil kennel.. I want to test some different kernels and see what suits me the best..!! What I would like to know is what must I look out for apart from features.. Check it's stability, speed, responsiveness.. What else can I check and how.. Would be nice if someone posted a list of points.. (things to look for when testing/trying new kernels)

for me , the first thing I'm gonna ask for is RAM size and games then comes the speed, bugs, and so on

Thank you for replying.. Okay we know ram size from kernel description..
How do I check the speed & games (you mentioned). ??
I would like a small list I can check to test kernel
Example
ram
speed
over/under clock
governors
schedulers
Thanks.. Any more advice please do reply

I won't list everything but you can discover all aspects of the kernel by using it , some games are not compatible with some kernels and I think it happens only in beta version it become solved as soon as it is discovered and you may find this in the replies that people make in the same thread .

This is a useful program https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.into.stability&hl=en
It will stress test your config and let you know how stable it is

Note that's very helpful.. Just the kind of thing I'm looking for..
All I want to know is what points/features/functions to test (look at) when trying different kernels..
Much appreciated bud..

Issues wid Miui 2.2.3. Need help

Hi
I am presently using Miui 2.2.3 by CacingKalung and i feel that the touch screen is kinda laggy. Many a times the touch does not react immediately and also the market force closes when i try to open few apps. Has any one else been facing this issue?
And secondly what does a kernel mean? I am really sorry if its a stupid question but i see so many discussing abt the different kernels and its uses but i just cant understand how it helps the phone. I have been following the development section for quite some time but i am still not allowed to post anything there as my number of posts are less than required. I feel its really a shame that i still cant post anything in the dev section though i have been logging in almost every day for the last 3 months now.its kinda frustrating too. so that's the reason i am posting my query here. Any help is really appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Shri
Kernel .....
As far as I know ..... , and correct me if i m wrong .....
Kernel is a interface which sits between your operating system and hardware (CPU,Memory etc.). So, here gigerbread,miui,CM7,ICS these all are OSs and kernel translates commands from OS to hardware and vice verse.....
Different kernels have different translating ability, so some can translate faster with your screen responses others cant,some can support two way call,better HD graphics, while some are bit slower ....

Should give time to settled right after boot.
Feels no big different for each kernel. But if you try other than sdkernel or mock kernel, your wifi won't work on this 2.2.3.

Thanks for the reply CacingKalung. Could you please do something about the touh sensitivity and the in call volume issue? The touch especially is kinda laggy. I am now using MIUI 2.3.7 hooney comb them based ROM by elol. The touch works perfect in this ROM and also there is no call volume issue so far but some apps force close like Fring and power amp which are very important for me. so want to switch to some other stable ROM. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Cheers,
Shri
ok i re-installed the ROM and now the touch screen seems to be working fine. But i forgot to mention the main issue i am facing. The audio quality seems to have gone down. The sound is feeble now. some times accidentally it becomes louder which is actually the normal output but otherwise its feeble all the time. CacingKalung can you please do something about this? i am writing all this only because of all the ROMs i have used i liked this one the most i shoud say CacingKalung has done a wonderful job !!! and i really want to stick on to this for some time until we get a stable and fully working ICS. Hopefully there is a solution for this. Thanks in advance for any help and keep up the woderful work.
EDIT : The sound now is fine looks to me like a hardware issue but i can confirm that its not because of this ROM... so looks like all my issues are resolved
Cheers,
Shri
Nice... you can solved your problem by your self...!

You really think you are all high and mighty now huh? I've taken a look at your posts before and after you made your kernel, and let me tell you something: there is a big difference in the attitude of the posts. It's like the fact that you have developed something gave you a sense of authority. There is no excuse for you to be disrespectful.
Are you bored to death? No one asked you to post here. No one asked for your opinion. If you are bored, leave. I am not a fan of themed roms, but your posts just sicken me.
Its looks good, but a few advises to convey
1) Name the thread "[ROM] Spring Rom [GB 2.3.3 v20c]"- This would look more formal and attractive
2) Add more info about the mods & tweaks you implemented
3) Don't listen or care for anyone who criticizes
I guess you have used Zeam (One of my favourite Launchers)
and also i love the default GB settings icons
I couldn't say that i will try it, sorry because i'm more into graphical customisations. But would like to advice every stock GB lover to use this ROM

First of all a superb effort on this one Anil
Havent replied on xda since a long time...but somehow had that urge to test something new and so tried this one.... And yes rightfully said... amongst all the High Fi stuff of 2.3.7 and ICS, somehow the stability is being overlooked as nightlies have come into picture.... almost every other day we have the beta updates of tons of ROMs... most of those being just the customisations of the major ones... The actualy ones are just three... LOL the ICS port, CM7.2 nighlies and the Oxygen port.... So many versions and so less to try...
Maybe im being old school but i liked the development when the REAL devs published something...that too taking their own time...coming up with REAL updates and not just simple things like fixed headset icon etc.. Mik, Knzo, Franco, Andy....miss their work dearly....and at the same time i do appreciate the efforts of the new frotiers like Popdog and the other guys developing on P500...!!!
To sum it up id say, Good work done to provide just the nessesary customisations and at the same time keeping the ROM stock..... I am using it since a few hours now and everything seems to be working well.. No bugs or performance lags...would report aout the battery in maybe a day or so..
P.s.: Modification, be it of a line or an entire re-write of a code is still a modification. So unless he's asking u for paying his internet bills, stop criticizing each and everything around u.. He didnt steal ur code or modification did he..?? Its sometimes good to just avoid trolling where u are not needed
Thanks Parth.
Appreciate that.

Official ARM. Project Thread

Hello O2X Community,
I am here to announce ARM. which will be on your device! This thread is for you to discuss about which ever kernel specific features you want. Of course, here are the ARM. specific features that will be included:
- Based Official CyanogenMod Sources with ICS Drop
- Dimmed LED for more Battery Life
- Undervolted clock rates for more battery savings
- Deep sleep surpasses minimal clock rate for further sleep savings to increase battery life
- Optional Overclock for performance
- Minor GPU Overclock without increasing battery drain
- Maximum minimum brightness to save battery at night
- Various Phone hardware modules undervolted for more battery life
Compatible with all CM10 Based ROMs
Seeing all of those features, it means that we aim for Power and Performance
Please discuss about how you want us to work on the kernel. Note that a Stock ICS version will be developed after the CM's final version/build.
Note that we do not accept bugs posted right to the thread. Submit it to the github instead.
Github
hey, thanks for your work guys!
here's a list of features i miss from old GB kernels:
- a cpu governor that will disable the 2nd core when the screen is off (basically the hotplug governor main feature applied to interactive/conservative ones)
- a way to let us choose at wich frequency and after how many seconds the 2nd core should turn on and off
- simple i/o (SIO) scheduler
- a slightly ram overclock
- ramhack if possible 0-32-48-64(-80-96)MB (i think it's not atm?)
- every other specific and/or general tweak you can think of
ps: should you open a parallel thread in the dev section?
Make the led light as a notification light
When can we expect these to see running on our phone
Sent from my LG-P990 using Tapatalk 2
Ok. Whatever is said is said, but of course, hotplug wilk be joining in, and pegasusd, since its another power saving governor for dual cores. And RAM hacks are not applicable for ARM.
About tweaks, they will be added.(Of course)
Lastly, I want you to know that its scheduled for January. But I will try my best to complete by New Year's Eve. Lastly, I am finding another developer to maintain this device. Please PM.

this here sounds very interesting to be honest nicholaschw and i would like to see everything u wrote down for this phone bcs if it can also help extend battery life that would be awesome while boosting it, bcs i still don't feel this phone is out of date, bcs u still got dual-core processor and a nvidia graphic chip that can still do good and play 1080p through hdmi ^^
Great announcement,looking forward to.

Lets just say harsh is a dev. If you are, PM me asap. This is because i want two maintainers at the same time (1 of them is me) because i have to see to other phones also.
I assure you i will work on this fully.
Optimus black, your near partner is nearing final release. Once its done, you will expect my full concentration to o2x.
I hope i enjoy deving here. report bugs as soon as a new release is out. that way, your stable ARM. will be here in no time!
Final member needed, Alpha tester, required to be online when i am and must be skype-able. This tester tests each and every build. He must be well versed in exiting soft brick as fast as possible
USB OTG is too much work? I dont know if it can be ported from others Tegra2 devices.
Waiting for this!!!
is there any developer visiting general section i think no developer see this interesting project that nicholas starting

Welcome over to the O2x nicholas,
with Tonyp and hopefully Harsh being here too, we'll see a solid kernel in no time.
thanks for your help and interest, this is going to be awesome!
to add to list of possible features,
not very important, but its nice to have. a option to change the HDMI output. having it working automatically is great. but sometimes i'd like to chose what size a Screen im watching. .. this may be a feature in the rom more so than the kernel im not sure. =P
Tony, i sure will be commiting to CM if i can Now, if you can please help us, PM me, i will add you into git to push. Please inform harsh also
Ok. The timeline has been planned with my team. We will schedule our first build and commit this coming week, and, once we reach a stable build, we move on to a kernel controlling app. Note that before the app is out, you can use AOKP (must be based off CM) to control voltage and etc.
Its almost here. Get ready.

Second the USB OTG support, even if it disables the SD card temporarily.
Some descriptions with the options, some users (including me) have no clue what some of the options actually mean.
A "nitros widget" like CPU boost would be great, to enable a different CPU profile easily.

Arcee is already working on that, but if you solve it, it will be very helpful to boost this forum. Other bug is slow charging..

not sure, but definitely kernel related, im using dual boot.. tonyp's testbuild GC4.7 w/ kk125 and temasek v81 (no kernel) & games work fine on the stock kernel.. but don't get me wrong kk125 is superb for me, thanks to our master pengus77
i'm just hoping someone could bring some light here, & let pengus77 focus on doing surprisingly awesome(he knows whats best in our phone..)
pengus did state that his kernel is not a phonesole, or a kernel made for huge gaming, it is strange than candy crush ( as **** as it looks,) runs so badly on our phone in comparison to other games. But its not made to hit critical highs, its made for stability and smoothness, and it hits it on the ball, as far as I'm concerned.
The ram hack is planned, and I'm sure he'll get around to it once he has time, but as I'd expect, kernel development is a huge task, and it takes a lot of time to implement.
I've not personally heard of a better cm10 kernel than Pengus' one, so you'll be left using default cm10 kernel ( which is fine) just not super, uber, awesome.
But I'm sure if you hold out you'll see some magic happen. And if you can't, dual booting as you are is a decent alternative for now no?

We should measure what is going on with a logcat, I am not sure if it is ramhack related too! Maybe the game expects something from the kernel which the kernel doesn't understand. When a game is out of memory it simply just quits as far as I know (look at 3d mark on our phone).
We can try to grab logs when games are hanging, because I know what you mean with ****ty candy crush (however, read all those reviews... maybe it's game related).
I'm rather sure it's related to the carveout reduction (read: ramhack).
I've made a longer post regarding that topic in the kernel thread.
I've even showed there what needs to be done in the source to disable the ramhack if someone wants to compile a custom kernel w/o the ramhack (there are tons of instructions on how to compile a kernel out there).
If you ask nicely pengus might make a no-ramhack testkernel for you guys with the 125 base, which finally seems to be stable again.
I got a couple PMs in the past, but I won't post a kernel based on his sources here, that doesn't seem right - it's up to pengus to give out a non-ramhack kernel.

actually i've already ask some of our many developers for that(pointing on your post how to do it), but not our great kernel dev pengus77 because he is so busy working w/ that annoying network bugs, & i want him to focus on his work.. & i also once pm him, and i don't want him to be piss off, so once is enough..
i have pm 10+ devs, also hellraiser our apps hacker to hack the games.. hihi
anyway thank you guys! i move-on already, a blessing shakes my brains-out & say hey im so helpless & stupid, asking all you guys and bothering you so much, (in short i got a nexus7 from a special someone) & so im happy now

I've not personally heard of a better cm10 kernel than Pengus' one, so you'll be left using default cm10 kernel ( which is fine) just not super, uber, awesome.
But I'm sure if you hold out you'll see some magic happen. And if you can't, dual booting as you are is a decent alternative for now no?

i know, but there are many kernel dev here last year, pidochio, benee, harsh, stefan, rugglez, spica1234 all of them did great back then.. and im sure there's alot of dev out there who can do what pengus77 can do.
yeah, that's my option the duat boot(but always storage full, cant install even if i move all apps to SD) in single boot it wont ^__^
& sorry for posting on this thread.. i didnt see that there is Q&A category, if this is a wrong thread please i ask the moderator to delete my post ^__^

A team? With whom, pengus? We're already working very closely together.
And there are no more developers at the 2x forum working on device specific fixes and features.
So i don't really see the point.

RAM Management and Caching of Apps issue

First of all, "I feel sorry for the people on MIUI Forums, disregarding every bug and making people feel as if we should pay Xiaomi for using their devices "
Coming to the point, we all are aware how bad MIUI is at multitasking on MI 3. Heck, I feel jealous of my Galaxy Core(2+ years old) having 1GB of RAM but still able to hold 3 CHROME tabs along with other apps at once.(My MI 3 on the other hand, -_- )
I am least bothered about the "low ram visible to us" thing people complain.I just want proper multtasking capability on my 2 GIGS of ram, and by multitasking, I mean background caching of apps.
Thus , me being a noob, need help to promote this thread so as to find a way ( like buildprop file tweak etc.) which we can use for the MEMORY MANAGEMENT problems on our STOCK MIUI Roms.
I really have lost all hope that we'll be getting proper sources for bug free ROMS, so this is a humble request to all capable developers that we have here.
Thanks in advance!! :fingers-crossed:
Mokee is really stable, worth trying.

I agree that Some custom roms are swesome, mokee being one of them, but what I would really love is to have an multitasking improvement over Default MIUI ROM

Go in developer options, and set "memory optimisation" to "off"... You will see some difference.. But still i agree, miui is very bad at multitasking...

Will doing that really help? Let me hope!
Changed the option to OFF.REBOOTED the device. Will test for one day, and let others know!

So as an update, after changing Memory Optimisation to "NONE" , the situation has improved only by 8-10% or so, and the RAM management issue remains the same.So I am probably stuck with the phone for another year. Atleast the phone does not lag one bit.:angel:

First thing I did when I got this phone, was to flash a custom ROM. I came form a Nexus 4, where very few people use the stock ROM.
Right now, there are plenty of excellent options for the Mi3.
I have been using EOS for about 2 months now, and I highly recommend it. I installed an app called Resource Monitor Pro, which allows you to display available RAM on the screen - I have positioned it to just next to the (centred) clock.
Between updating to later versions of this ROM, I have had 300 hours of uptime without any sort of lag, using all sorts of apps and games: RAM management has been exactly as expected - between 400mb and 600mb free. That is, the ROM is doing a good job of managing memory, killing old tasks and keeping recent tasks in memory until something else comes along.
If I were you, I would read up on how to get into the dangerously addictive world of custom ROMs...
Okay, one more solution if you want to stick to miui (as it is the most stable rom) and not lollipop roms.
Use a third party MiUi rom. These guys have really improved multitasking on the modded miui roms. I don't know if its allowed to post link here, but there you go :

The only reason keeping me from trying a custom rom is a working camera with good pictures, and certain deal breaker bugs.Do you suggest to try the ROM inspite of the above?

Yup.. I'm using it for past 2 weeks. Its very fast as compared to original miui.
1) multitasking is better. On original miui, suppose you have chrome opened with 3 tabs, you get a sms containing OTP, you open the msg, copy the OTP, switch back to chrome and you find that all three tabs start to load again, and whatever transaction you are in between on lost.
But in this ROM tabs dont reload. When you open a lot of apps together, then only old apps are closed automatically..
Try it.. You can flash it on your current MiUi without wiping system or data. Remember to flash Gapps after flashing this rom.. It dont have GApps built in..
