O/Cing and Uvolting using KANG BUILD P204-54

Apologies if this post is in the wrong forum. I don't have sufficient posts under my account I can't as yet post under the developer (ROM) thread.
I've just installed the CM7 Kang Build P204-54 on my Optimus 2X.
I notice that the overclocking and undervolting is not available under the Cyanogen, Performance, CPU settings. Basically no values show up under Min and Max frequency.
Is this a limitation on the kernel that has been used in this ROM?
If so what should I do in order to gain this feature. I would like very much to undervolt and overclock the CPU to extend the battery life and get better performance.

Temaseks P204-54 comes with stock kernel which doesn't allow you to OC or UV using CM settings. Therefore you need to install a custom kernel like IronKernel or ETaNa Kernel, which allows you to OC to 1.5 Ghz and 1.4 Ghz respectively.
Also you can't UV using CM settings, you should use a third party app for that like Pimp My CPU, or SetCPU.

Thanks for the info.
I've been looking at the Eterna Kernel. What does the RAM hack value mean?
Also will I lose any data/settings, or should I do a backup before flashing?

The different Ram hack values means the amount of extra ram that will be available on your phone. The phone uses the extra ram from the GPU, so that means the bigger the Ramhack, more things don't work. More info can be found in the original thread of course.
Normally, when you flash a kernel you need to wipe cache and dalvik, however ETaNa Kernel will do this automatically for you in its install script, so there's no need for a wipe with this kernel. Therefore you won't lose your data, however making a nandroid backup is never a bad idea.

Vadonkas kernel runs very well. With 32 MB RAM hack almost everything is working but mostly reboot issues. There's also a 32 MB with shared memory but this can have strange behavior. Read the thread, a lot of info.

A little advice...don't set ramhack values...it gives only problems...if you wanna more ram, you can "virtually" add it with compcache in cyanogenmod performance settings

Well 32MB Ramhack works fine for me. No problems whatsoever, only reboot doesn't work but that's easily manageable by pressing the power button another time when you want to power up the phone. It's true that with a bigger Ramhack, more things won't work... But besides that it doesn't cause much problems. Obviously it's your choice if you want a big Ramhack.
By the way: there is also a no-Ramhack version of ETaNa Kernel, so you might wanna consider that.

Is the native O2X RAM so low that the phone gets RAM starved? Is the extra RAM a good thing to have?
If not is there any disadvantage is downloading the 0MB RAMhack version and then going with markop90's suggestion of virtually adding extra RAM (if needed) using the CM performance settings?

The O2X has 512 MB Ram, and about 300 MB is available for the apps etc. Most of the time there's only about 100-150 MB free RAM on your phone. In my opinion this is too low, so I chose for a 32MB Ramhack. Now I've always 100+ MB Ram available. So in my case it's a good thing to have.
There are no advantages whatsoever with the 0MB version. Everything works fine and there's no extra ram added.
There are also no disadvantages with enabling compcache I believe, as said before this creates more ram when you need it. (I also have this enabled)

I'm running the 0 ram hack version here and everything is super smooth. I would suggest starting with this one and if you find you are still running low on ram try the 32MB version etc...

Vadonka offer several versions so you can choose whatever you like. Personally I chose the 32mb Ramhack (not shared!). Only reboot doesn't work but to push the ON-button is not really a problem However, for some others the 1x click is too much and they prefer no ramhack.
You can also choose more ramhack if you like, but then it starts to have more issues like no full video resolution etc.

Thanks for the information guys. I will flash the 0MB Eterna kernel during the coming weekend I think. Or maybe tomorrow if I can spare the time.
Btw, would installation of the kernel remove system settings? I mean through the wipe?

The good thing about ETaNa Kernel is that it wipes automatically wipes cache and dalvik everytime you flash it. So, everytime you want to flash a custom kernel you need to wipe cache and dalvik. That means there's no data loss.

@temasek : Could you point me to a page showing the main features of your Kang . I'm on the CWM 204 nightly and was wondering what are the significant featural differences between your Kang and CM7 nightly . Video / screenshots would be great . Can I install you Kang on top of CM 204 nightly ( without deleting data)
Guess I should make this a new thread for noobs like me

thankss perfect!!!!!!!

I've flashed Eterna.
I notice SetCPU and Pimp my CPU are paid apps.
Are there any free apps I can use to undervolt?

ICS

So i was waiting for this from a long time ?I installed the ICS stock rom using PC odin.GB was much better than this ICS.My ram use always up to 550MB.Even i clear it,it raise up again automatically.N nothing new with the battery life.What should i do now?

What is your question? Be specific

well my pone's memory it even used more than that and everything is fine it goes to deep sleep and battery as a matter of fact lets say 16 hours so far works great seems your flashing better wipe everything and install clean then install CPUspy right away and start watching it must go to deep sleep without issues so look again.

After seeing the ram issue i reset the factory data.Even i formatted my internal storage.But the ram issue is still the same.I don't have anything installed now except JuiceDefender.

Anyway to reduce the ram use? Or i should try with the N7000ZSLPF rom selecting the boot loader?

No need to get panicky about RAM usage at all. Android is meant to work that way:
it keeps your apps cached, so it can start them faster when you need them.

When will people realise android is not like WINDOWS or any Microsh$t RAM is meant to be used on our phones to keep multitasking running smoothly etc. If you want to run a large app/game then android will give it then ram it needs and automaticly keep processors from other apps.
Thus there is never much free ram because its being used to make everything nice and smooth.
FREE RAM IS WASTED, personally I hate seeing more than 200MB ram free

OK thank u everyone for reply.But should i try the N7000ZSLPF rom.What's the different between N7000ZSLPF n N7000XXLPY rom?

Personally I wouldn't yet, give it a week or so make sure there are no huge bugs, wouldn't want to flash it and then find out that after 2 days use peoples phones randomly start failing to boot...sure its unlikely but I like to wait as I don't really have the cash laying around to buy another £500 phone....

Ok thank u.

to increase memory, have you tried using any of those memory optimizers like autokill?

Settings, Developer options, section "Apps"
but my common sense tells me that your phone is going to be a lot slower.

Question regardin RAM and JB!

Hi guys I'm running MiUi.JB.2.8.24 on my SGS1 and my RAM memory is always 75%-80% full even if I don't run any apps....is there a way to free some RAM space in order to make my SGS1 smoother?
Thanks in advance!!!!

Don't know about MIUI, but I use C-RoM BeaN v1.3.4 and I have 278Mb in use and 111 free. The phone is very smooth and the ROM pretty cool.

but the way what are the kernel you using?

Try devil kernel XL. It solved my problems.

Thank you All
i tried link2sd but Mount2SD is most effective i found..
but how can i move All system apps + data to sd-ext ?

You don't want to. Sd-ext is faster than FAT32, but you still want system apps installed internally for speed. That's why Link2SD won't link system apps; the Cronmod scripts leave the system apps alone too.

Nope, but, at least for my usage pattern, 4.1.2 is rock stable.
Other than having a higher number, does KK really "give" you anything in the Note1,
that would be worth the hassle of trying to get it to work?

@lukasspro777 Would you like to elaborate on that? Obviously going out of TW will also bring some disadvantages, like the use of the S PEN, and some TW based applications which I quite enjoy: the S Note and the S Planner, just to name a few.
Obviously they can be replaced - however not something everyone is willing to do.
The major thing for me with the stock ROM is the lack of space for installing applications. Nothing is more irritating than receiving a brand new update of your favourite application and when trying to install it and get the "not enough memory" error.
I for one did get annoyed enough to try the SlimBean final stable version, and I did not go back. The ROM is fantastic, and extremely light. I had to install some new applications like the Business Calendar Pro and the matching Business tasks which I learned to enjoy (even though the visual aspect of the S Planner was better in my opinion). I also substituted the S Note with Evernote, Sketchbook mobile express and Papyrus and now it looks like a new phone.
However its not like I gained a new feature with 4.3.1 over what the stock ROM had. But after about 2 years of using it, it was taking too much time to open some applications and the general lag was all over the place. Now its not a Galaxy Note 3, but I am quite happy with this change.

I know nokiamodel91, but I don't want to swap my SD card and internal memory. I want to be able to swap my 64gb sd card and not worry that half of my applications will stop working.
I never understood why out of the 16GB internal storage only 1.9GB can be used for applications. I have the internal storage almost empty, as I save everything on the micro sd card and find it very frustrating to have internal storage space but can't use it to install applications.

Wow if this is true than it would be excellent. I have been asking for something like this for a long time, however the reply that I have received from the developers was that it was not possible.
Could you please link the threat? Is it compatible with all ROMs or just the stock?
Many thanks for that information.

I tried almost all versions of them already sir, and I think the final verdict was to wait for at least a real stable build coz the nightlies still can't compare to stable JB built cusroms with exception of Themes and appearance of the KitKat of course.

I no longer wait stock rom from SS. I love custom roms that is defference between Android and ios
