[Q] Bigmem libs patch - pros & cons & more - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am using CM10.1 nightlies, with Semaphore 2.9.5 kernel.
I would like to have more RAM so I Want to install the 2.9.5s kernel BUT (here i need your help):
1. Which bigmem patch is compatible with CM10.1?
2. How can i install it? (Flash bigmem patch and then flash kernel? or restart between?)
3. Pros: I know i'll get more RAM but what is the cost? (What are the Cons? it can not be all perfect isn't it? otherwise all the ROMs will come already patched... and all the Kernels would be compatible to bigmem libs)
Thank you very much in advance.
*Sorry for bad english

The better way is to flash a ROM with all the Patches, try FISHEARS ROM or CYANAOSP ROM for Bigmem option
Secondly, If you are using BIGMEM , then it will break 720P video recording and it will go to 480P
And might increase UI response little bit, !
PS- I am not using it !

Thank you,
BUT I Would like to use semaphore because the 720p sppose to work even after (thats what i read at the Sema OP)
and i do not like to swich ROM for this...
So if someone can assist, How do i install it? and what Files do i need?
Thanks

A brief review of what i learnt about this for others who might need it
1. The bigmem patch that one needs to patch to hugemem libs is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30725734
2. Installation is install this zip and then install a patch-compatible Kernel as Semaphore 2.9.7s (it was recommanded to install superSU either the same time)
3. only pros...no cons.. except that it *might* break 720p video recording as anyone could tell.
any comments anyone?
I'll try this after exams when I'll have the time bacause now i'm a little timeless and if something will go wrong it will be a problem.
Thanks to Fenvarien, rahul93, jugster, bejda.

Fastest kernel I used!
3400 quadrant, without overclock! Very snappy
Hi,
I'm coming from MCR fr17 Fear Kill edition 10.. it is using the 2.6.32.8 kernel.
My questions are as per below (Sorry I'm new to android devices and trying my best to learn):
a) When flashing a new kernel, I just put it in my SD card and flash it in recovery correct? Or do I need to perform a wipe before doing so? Need to clear any cache etc?
b) For those that have tested this kernel, care to upload the stable voltage for 1000 mhz, 1200mhz and 1300mhz?
c) What if I undervolted it so much that it isnt a stable voltage? Will my phone be a brick?
Thanks to all that take the time to guide a noob like me.

In Pimp my CPU, use the stress test to see if its stable. Use the settings without saving it so you dont boot with those settings. But just to make sure, make a backup of the rom if absolute everything f*cks up.

Currently I cant even run a CPU Stress Test. When I do, the application will be forced closed.
Do take note that I havent flashed in this new kernel yet.. Using 2.6.32.8 atm
I flashed this Kernel with Stock ROM, but I found that my existing Pimp my CPU not work anymore. Please suggest use with version is fine, Thanks.
Same, this kernel doesn't support PimpCPU I believe. Nevertheless, it's the most stable kernel that I've tried so far...
What advantages are their of converting to ext4? Looking for a good kernel current running modaco fr17 will this be ok?

I'm actually not looking for an OC, I was looking for a UV.
Sorry if it is a noobish question but wat advantage does this bring over stock kernel?
Sent from my LG-P990 using Tapatalk
This kernel provides ext4 support. And a small fix I believe. So the advantage is a general speed improvement with phone usage.
Guys, my O2X just got updated (via LG PC Suite) to v10d. I already rooted it, but can anyone confirm if this kernel still works with it?

how to install cm9 lg optimus 2x

hey guys can anybody provide instruction on how to flash cm9 on my optimus 2x. also is it ext3 or ext4 and which one is the best kernel + rom combo.
can games like gta 3 also run on cm9?
The two best CM9 roms are as far as I know, Owains CM9 build and Heis Nova HD. (you can find them both in the dev section). I believe CM9 is EXT4, like CM7.
As for kernels it becomes a little more complicated because there are about 5 different kernels for CM9 (Spicas HP extreme, Harsh's Reborn, Supernova HD, wkparks 3.0 kernel, Ironkernel (don't use this one!) and stock CM9 of course) So there is a lot to choose from, all you have to do is reading the threads and make up your own mind.
If you want to flash CM9, you first need to make a backup of your apps, contacts etc., because it requires a full wipe. Oh, you also need CM9 gapps obviously, you can find them somewhere on the Internet.
So all you gotta do in CWM recovery is:
1. (optional) Backup CM7
2. Wipe data/system/dalvik
3. Install rom
4. Install kernel
5. Flash gapps
Then you should be done!
what about games, do they run in cm9 like gta 3 or fruit ninja?
I think they should work ok, but not at their maximum potential. As you might know, CM9/ICS for our device still lacks HW acceleration. This essentially makes your phone smoother, so also gaming. With other words they should work fine if you compare it to CM7, but not good enough if you compare it to normal ICS with HW acceleration I think.

I have played both of these games and they run absolutely the same as on cm7
B/w I'm running cm9 with hp kernel rc1-r
Only thing is that idle battery life (8 hrs sleep time) is increased from 3% to 5-6%...not much of a problem if you ask me
so what i cant do in ics, take video recording and view videos as well as no adobe flash?
also is stock kernel owain kangs build stable and smooth?

Actually you can use MX Video player to watch just about any video you want, upto 720p in S/W fast mode
Havn't tried Owain Build, but i think Spica's Kernel, ironkernel and stock ics kernel are stable enough....have tried them all and no bsod's!!
As for video recording there is video illusion working in cm9

At the moment one of the best builds/kernels, an alternative would be the SuperNova kernels.

Harch kernel is also a good kernel if you want stock speeds and good battery life.

It would be nice if someone more experienced explain all steps for installing NOVA HD i mean explanation about steps for customization NOVA HD. Tnx in advance.
I would suggest you to try out latest Owain's rom and if I get it right, he have baked harsh rom with fix kernel into the rom, so you can use UMS (usb mass storage) for now latest is build 40 but i guess it is b41 comming out today for some reasons.. It is the smoothest and more stable rom that I ever had.. And battery life is awesome coz i guess harsh kernel is set to undervolt, but it doesn't affect the performance, and no problems with watching videos, for taking video you can take Videocam Illusion, works on g2x and o2x . I dont know about full version, but free one's quality is ****ty, but just in case I see UFO crash lol =)
What are the steps if i want to revert back to CM7, because i hate that the video camera doesn't work?
Tks.

Hi all,
I'm in Gingerbread 20Q now, and I'd like to install CM9 (owain's ROM) so I have some questions:
1. I have to convert my filesystem to EXT3 before install?
2. Kernel and Gapps are baked in the Rom or I have to download/install it separately?
3. There are RIL/baseband reccomended?
4. Someone says that Camera/Video have problems, someone not... I'll be possible to take photos/video with CM9 or not?
5. Someone talk about a "full wipe", so I will lose all my photos and files if I install CM9 ?
Thank you
D.
Hi all
I installed the lastet official update ... I've to say... what a disappointment. Battery life is extremely short... so before trying go back, I think a will install CM9. Being new... may I ask some help for installation? Ok, I dowloaded NovaHD_RC24-50_fixed.zip and the kernel SuperNova-RC4.zip. May I ask some of you to explain each step an which tool I have to use?
thx in advance

CyanogenMod (CM) 9 is really outdated. If you want a good, fast ROM I can recommend Slimbean. It's largely based on CM. You can find more info here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2060374
Detailed instructions can be found in that thread and on the slimrom website.
Coming from Gingerbread you'll need to install CM10 first, otherwise you will lose your IMEI, which will render your phone unable to make or place calls. Once on CM10 you can then flash Slimbean.
Or using an newer version of CM

Like i said in the original post i wanted rom cm9 with devil 3 kernel but still didnt know what that means...( the kernel part)
Now that i got the cm10 ive searched around videos on youtube and seen lot of ppl kinda overclocking it with diferent kernel...
I want to do it like with semaphore or some kernel thing... can someone explain to me how it is done and if it is good for the phone?
Some infos:
Android version: 4.2.2
Baseband vers: I9000xxJVT
Kernel version: 3.0.76-gc0a8d45
Memory: 369 mb
Cm vers: 10.1.2-galaxysmtd
Okay different kernel i have no experience with it ,sorry...
But overclocking is available with the stock-kernel in CM 10 ...to about 1200mhz in the performance menu under your settings ...have you activate developer options and performance...do you know how to do it???

You flash semaphore the same way you flashed your rom and it will replace stock cm kernel your rom will stay the same make sure you flash the right version to avoid any bricking. It makes cm run better. Overclock depends on your phone some people can overclock high some not so much. Download semaphore changer governor to sio and liveoc to 110% and set min frequenci 400Mhz. That should be enough to make it supper smooth

I don't get it why do you want to flash another kernel? Aren't you happy now with smooth CM10.1x? Here on this forum are many flashing freaks who flash and overclock their phones until the device completely crashes.
CM10.1x is excellent already way it is, if you want to even improve it (first of all to get about double battery life) just upgrade it to the newest nightly version of CM10.2 tomorrow (build 20130828), it will finally have all bigger bugs fixed. Very soon, stable CM.10.2 build will be released out of this nightly. This is the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2385178
If you want to do it, just mind that the developer (pawitp) doesn't mention anymore installing gapps, so this would be the workflow from your present ROM:
Do a Nandroid Backup of your CM10.1.2 build before the upgrade!
Go to CWM recovery mode and check first in "install zip" if your zips of the CM10.2 and Gapps for 4.3 are visible on your internal SD card
Wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache
wipe dalvik cache (under "advanced")
Install the nightly ROM zip from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
Install Gapps for CM10.2 (Android version 4.3) while still in recovery
Restore /data from Nandroid Backup (the update will wipe your /data) while still in recovery
Reboot system
The partition layout of CM10.2 (beginning from 20130816 nightly) differs of that of CM10/CM10.1. The first install will wipe your /data to switch to the new layout, but after that you may use CWM to restore/backup data of CM10/10.1/10.2 (in CWM recovery under "advanced restore" then "restore data" from your CM10.1 nandroid backup)
This way done, you should have all data, wallpaper, widgets and apps like in your CM10.1 right after the reboot. And wait until tomorrow, when the 20130828 nightly gets released. I've been using "buggy" builds (nightlies between 24 and 27 Aug) without any problems, but some people had problems with them.

[Q] Semaphore 3.2.0 and BigMEM-Libs

can someone explain to me what is "BigMEM-Libs for Sema-Kernel 3.2.0s" . I saw it on another post .
when should I flash the BigMEM? after I flashed the rom and the kernel ?
1 more thing, can i flash cm 10.2 on stock 2.3.3 ?
ty .
Upgrade to 2.3.6 (it is a better base for the next steps) then flash CM 10.2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2434225
So to your other question:
Semaphore is an other Kernel for different ROM like CM 10.2 and so on...you can flash it via Odin...
The Kernel reserves RAM when starting so you don`t have 512 MB RAM on your Android for apps and so on, instead only 360MB, for explample...
Semaphore-Kernel gives tou the ability to enable the Function "BigMEM" so you have more RAM becuase some drivers are not loaded at the beginning for example 720p video recording...
So when you enable BigMEM you`re camera will get FS (ForceClosings) then you need the BigMEMLibs (Libs like libOMX.so and so on) and for all that you have to use not the "normal" Semaphore-Kernel, but the Sema-Kernel "s"
Bigmem
When the kernel boots, it reserves some RAM to be used by some drivers (video, capture, JPG) for DMA (Direct Memory Access). In Linux kernel this reservation have to be done only during boot. It was found that using less reserved memory for video capture, the kernel can operate normally without issue with the only regretion that 720p video recording is not possible. Enabling this option will leave ~13MB more available RAM.

Most custom roms for mini 2 like cyanogenmod does not support overclock. Will just unlock the stock processor speed 1Ghz. I said that, because if you select an higher value phone will crash or reboot.
Just stock rom can be overclocked up to 1,12 Ghz and cm9 at 1,1 Ghz.
Also brian kernel can be installed on stock rom (but camcorder will not work) and cm10.1 but wifi and camera will not work. Brian kernel have 411 mb Ram avaiable for OS.
Also, to make this phone fast you should be rooted and deodexed and rom should be zipalligned with int.d scripts. To boost OS speed use squadzone kernel. To improve rom stability flash lastest 2014 rom from samsung (branded movistar). /Or another rom, but you will also need to de-bloatware it (deleting useless apps/files)
If you need more help just tell me

1)To root mini 2 is enough to install clockworkmod recovery and reboot phone. If you're not rooted it will ask you if you want to write su (superuser) binary.
To overclock stock rom you will need to install squadzone's kernel from an custom recovery like cwm or twrp.
2) Mini 2 does not have full working custom roms like stock rom. Cyanogenmod 10.1 rom have problems with fm radio and whitescreen. Well, all mini 2 cm have that problems.
If you decided to use cm10.1 and you want to boost it , delete useless apps (not neessary apps), like voice dialer or vpn config, gmail, dev tools, and other apps that you don't use.
Also, I need to mention here that all mini 2 custom roms have a problem with camcorder performance. It will lag while you rec. a video. I noticed , the bad video performance on cm10.1 and higher like cm10.2, cm11 (games have graphical issues instead stock rom) .
Else I don't know what to do to boost cm...
Playstore promoted apps in app or ads will just clear ram, and tell you to delete useless user apps.
There are 2 kind of apps:
-user apps (installed from playstore, sdcard, ext. sdcard, adb...)
-system apps (preinstalled rom apps, like phone , internet browser..., this apps can be deleted from rom .zip , before you flash it/ or if you're rooted, download root browser and go to system/app and delete what you want.)
Just search on internet (google) squadzone kernel mini 2 s6500, and flash it.
Tell me if you don't found it. I have it saved on my sdcard, and I will upload it. :thumbup:

Squadzone kernel does not have bugs till MD1 PDA verdsion.
If you flash MK1 ROM, wifi will be broken. A fix for that is avaiable on dev forum.
Last summer I've tried to flash squadzone's kernel into CyanogenMod 10.1 but I had a bootloop!

But you can't overclock your sgm2 if you do that you get bluescreen and reboot. For me the squadzone kernel is very awesome and smooth in games. Even in higher games im running on custom rom with squadzone kernel 1.1overclock
