kernels work properly on both IZS & ICS
main features: swap & zram support, undervolting, wided frequencies' scale 200Mhz-1.1Ghz
swap usage is strongly not recommended, as it causes lags in UI, zetram, otherwise, is almost a musthave.
wonna announce in advance, that dafna_v4.* would be (soon, i hope) on the latest 3.9.4 stable linux sources.
dafna _v3.3:
haven't changed a byte in code - only trickstering with linaro's commandline parameters.
results could be seen by eye; according to tests dafna_v3.3 makes now on lionheart even larger figures than diana_0.3 did on performance.
necessary tunings (without them rom would lag or even become unstable/freezed): lionheart, bfq, cache 2Mb, aggressive OOM, seeder, zram.
sicdezmond (from 4pda.ru) suggests that it may be usefull before installing this version to wipe cache & dalvik.
dafna_v3.2:
v 3.1 + additional undervolting of 800 Mhz.
rebuilt on the latest versions - android-ndk-r8e & gcc 4.7, theoretical and/or practical achivements of this rebuilding had to be finded yet.
due to the widely known gcc 4.7 bug, wifi module does not compile properly (any help or ideas for any workaround would be greatly appreciated), but module from the previous version of dafna could be just copied to /etc/wifi (proper permissions 755 had to be checked/set, of course).
overall feeling: it's much quicker and has lower power consumption than dafna_3.1.
necessary tunings (without them rom would lag or even become unstable/freezed): lionheart, bfq, cache 2Mb, aggressive OOM, seeder, zram.
dafna_v3.1:
v3 + upper limit changed to undervolted 1.1 Ghz according to lgeob's (from 4pda.ru) idea of frequency's changeling.
necessary tunings (without them rom would lag or even become unstable/freezed): lionheart, bfq, cache 2Mb, aggressive OOM, seeder, zram.
dafna_v3:
v2 + tuned undervolting + changing of lowest frequency to 20Mhz (also added upper limit 1.1Ghz is recognized, but not used by the system).
necessary tunings (without them rom would lag or even become unstable/freezed): lionheart, bfq, cache 2Mb, aggressive OOM, seeder, zram.
Historical review:
dafna_v2:
v1+ undervolting of wifi + disabling ipv6 + disabling ethernet in company with a pair of not needed TCP protocols.
dafna_v1:
based on diana_v.3 by Huexxx, swap + zram, light undervolting after lgeob's ideas, disabling of most of the kernel's debugging.

Btw how to set up those tunables?
I know about governors but dunno which app is compatible with the kernel.
Edit: nvm I just tried trickster mod and it works ok for now.

any app you like.
the simpliest and easiest way is to set it up with the init.d scripts (seeder, of course, had to be only installed).
as to the apps - android tuner, android trickster, no-frills CPU (for example) - most of them can tune partly required, but none can tune all mentioned.
Great job mate.I'll test it on Trasmusic v30f.Hope that oc is stable
Edit: Instable for me.Games are force closing and some apps too

With this mod is added more battery life, some changes in kernel config, cpu spike on touch the screen fix, better axis inversion workaround, USB-transfer fix, Powertop/dmesg support, and for froyo based roms users, recharging with phone off fix.
- Recharging with phone off fixed. (mikos cyanogen based roms have a feature to: if the phone is off, when you plug the charger, it will power on the phone. The normal behaviour is to boot a system only to recharge phone. But mik has disabled it. SO, if you use devoid.#final this recharge while offline will work. if you use cyanogen, will not work.)

How to use it? Just download and Flash via ClockworkMod Recovery.
Remember:
This kernel is ONLY for LG Stock ROM 2.2, Void.#forever, devoid, miks 6.5.x, CyanogenMMatt 1.1...
WIPE DALVIK, BATTERY AND CACHE!
DONT FLASH 2 DIFFERENT ZIPS AT THE SAME TIME!
MAKE A REBOOT BEFORE EACH FLASH
If you are using AmonRa, disable signature before flashing.
NOT underclock below 480MHz. At lower speeds, wakeups-from-idle per second are bigger than 480MHz and they share the same voltage, so thats leads to more battery drain.
It's recomended to use: MIN 480 / MAX YOUR CHOICE

You can use! That keyboard option removed was an legacy linux hack thing to restart the computer via keyboard. (sysrq magic key)
About zram, it is enabled in the kernel, if you have flashed it in any version of franco.Kernel it will work here.
How?
Its simple, when you flash zram it will modify one part of your system, and kernel another. So you only need to reflash zram in case of wipe all data.

Hi all,
since knzo have decided to stop developing Nova v7 despite certain little bugs, I've decided to create my own post to share with you a package to solve all the solvable bugs until the date.
In this first version, the flashable package contain/solves:
- SmartassV2 governor Issue (with modified nova script).
- Updates Superuser 3.0 from Beta3 to Beta4 and /system/bin/su permissions set to 7777.
- Autoset I/O Scheduler on boot (with modified 11nov init.d script).
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4629711/nova opt/huexxx-nova7-twk-v1.zip
(MD5: 004bedbdd3cec21779af2538d32f75c4)
Problems with Superuser? Try some of the following packages. First mantain 3.0 Beta3 and second contains the latest stable version. Both with su permissions set to 7777.

(MD5: 4373fb38d9f8fac857ed77b046285ffe)
Instructions: Put it onto sdcard root and flash it whrough CWM.
I tried the package and working ok but I am not responsible for any damage that may result in your devices.
So many thanks to Antonio1475 and knzo, good work dudes! ... and thanks to all who have helped into Nova project!
I hope this thread will please everyone involved.
Regards!
Meh, even though I know the bugs are there and I can fix them, I just said it wasn't worth a new version.
For now at least. If more appear, I can release another one.
I'm tired.
You could rename it to v7.1 patch by the way, I'm fine with it. It's more of a bug-fixer than optimizer!
P.S. It's the I/O sched autoboot feature that was fixed, not governor.
which i/o is best? what are the differences between them?
thank you, all is going well so far
No need to new versions IMHO. The work is done.
Relax and rest for 2.3 arrive...
Feel free to take it, rename it and post onto nova's thread, it's in your hands.
Optimizer is not the word i guess too... i'll rename it.
I hope to release new versions with true opts or enhanced existent features.

Ops... I'm not used to tapatalk!!!
v(r) seems to be the best overall but with ups and downs in performance while sio is more consistent performance.
Try them for yourself... if you don't see the difference... both are good for you.
From what I've read on the main Nova ROM thread, on v7 for Froyo, WiFi meter readings do not correspond to true signal strength. This is due to the more important tweaks knzo did.
Just a thought, if those tweaks weren't in older versions (such as v4.5, which is imho, already a fast version, but WiFi signal readings are true), is it possible to modify Nova v7 (meaning, ditch the tweak or tweaks that make signal readings erratic) so that WiFi readings are true without ruining the performance?
It's possible... when I know which tweak has generated it and where is it...
After applying this patch has increased the power consumption of the system (in Тутор the System process and the Kernel). In a Terminal at one and the same Governor SmartassV2. Returned to made a backup.

Aha,
then:
- modify a caracter at nova in order to operate well with SmartassV2 (the same if you had applied the smartass patch, and you had already applied it because you are using it before according to your probes)
- modify a caracter at 11nov in order to set iosched on autoboot (if the same iosched is set, its the same)
- change superuser beta3 to beta4 (in your case you already have beta4 because freezing with beta3)
makes a difference in power compsumption at your OB...
You have different power comsumptions at different moments, I'm sure it isn't by the patch itself... because you had all implemeted yet!

Certainly the included versión (Beta4) is not the same as knzo's version (the date soesn't match) so i've created an alternative package for all who have problems with su.

Hi there, I've already tried that method, modifying Nova v4.5 with kernel v7. first time try, I don't get overclock, still the same 1 GHz, and the WiFi signal still the same. But I notice that actually it work (even on Nova v7), the signal update in minutes. I've test it, if the phone connected to AP, wait for a minutes, and the signal will full. Then, go a little far away from AP, then the signal updates to low signal also in a minutes.. Well I don't know what's the problem.
Second try, I include overclock_p970_22.ko from Nova v7 (which I don't include it at first try), but it hang/freeze after come to "desktop". Well, it mean that v4.5 and v7 are not compatible
So I release battery, start it again, and go to recovery mod, and apply Nova v4 and v4.5 to have normally system. And when I came back to this forum, I see post that contain fix for Nova v7. Well, I have to try it
Thanks Huexxx, will trying it... Here we go with another night flashing and flashing again

You use this kernel and it's available settings at your own risk. I accept no responsibility for your phone, or anything that happens to it while using the feature. Although it has the ability to overclock to 2.0GHz, this may shorten the life of your device.

The aim of this kernel is to be the most feature rich kernel available for the Incredible S. The kernel is the engine of your phone, and I want to include support for everything! If there is something you need and it isn't here, let me know and I will do my best to add it. XDA is a community, and lots of the work in this kernel has been discovered / and created by a wide range of people, all of whom this would not be possible. It is pretty impossible to name all of the people to thank, but know this is the result of a whole community, and my gratitude goes out to everyone who has contributed to this site!

Instructions for S-OFF Users
Simply flash XS-ICSvX.X.zip in your favourite recovery!
Instructions for manual flashing (HTCDev.com unlocked S-ON Users)
Thanks to MrToastbrot for instructions
Step 1: Download the XS-Kernel.zip, then open the Zip on your computer and extract the file mkbootimg.sh in "kernel"
Step 2: Open mkbootimg.sh in a texteditor like notepad++ or notepad, then edit the following in line 3:
Code:
output /tmp/newboot.img
to
Code:
output /sdcard/newboot.img
Step 3: Save your edited file and place it back in your zip, copy your modified zip to your phone-sdcard and install it in the recovery. Then reboot your phone and connect it to pc and take the newboot.img from the root of the sdcard.
Step 4: Now reboot your phone into bootloader and flash it via fastboot flash boot newboot.img
Step 5: Once you phone has booted, mount the system as r/w using something like ES file explorer or Root explorer, then type the following:
Code:
adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules
Set permissions to rw-r--r--, reboot and enjoy!
Sweep2Wake: Q&A
Q: How do I disable / enable the feature?
A: Two options
Change the value in the file /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake to either 0 for disabled, 1 for enabled and 2 for enabled with backlight. This will be reset upon rebooting.
If your ROM supports init.d scripts, then flash the zip to enable or disable, this will stick over a reboot.
Q: It keeps taking screenshots when I lock the screen!?
A: This is due to an incompatibility with this feature and the native screenshot in Sense. TO stop the screen shots, you need to edit your build.prop and change the property ro.htc.framework.screencapture to false, and then reboot.

I'm using the miui v4 with nik's kernel and that function already work!
I'm wrong assuming it's already coded?
BTW good work!
Nice post, fast work. I'll have a play first chance I get. Thank you.
Nice. Downloading right now. Making a backup right now since I was thinking of flashing this new Google Now ZIP as well.
Also does this mean we can get CWM 6.0+? IIRC, one of the requisites for it was a ICS kernel to be able to compile it. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Which ROMs is it support?
MIUI will work whit this kernel?
Sent from my Incredible S using xda app-developers app
I have an S-OFF Vivo, so how do I flash this? Do I just install the zip from CWM?
I'm currently on IceColdSandwich, so what's the difference between the kernel used in that and this kernel?
Forgive my noobness but how is the file size only 100kb?
I have only test on MIUI v4, but it should work with any ROM, I would like some feedback if there are any ROM's it doesn't work with.
There is now a flashable zip on the first post, I made a proper schoolboy error when I first uploaded it, that is now fixed

This is just a new kernel, that is why it is so small.
Did you read the OP and the second post? The instructions can be found there.

There is now a proper zip you can flash, check the second post for instructions.
The kernel in Ice Cold Sandwich is a Gingerbread kernel (2.6.x) which was modified to work with ICS (rather awesomely by Kaijura I might add). This kernel is built from the latest 3.0 sources.
Oh sweet! How did you manage to do it so fast?
One last question, none of my data will be lost right?

I have been waiting for this since the OTA dropped
No data will be lost, but I would backup in case there is an issue with your install.

I think that you can delete 1.7GHz, 1.8GHz, 1.9GHz & 2.0GHz
Because they are unstable

Shouldn't affect anything like that, can you flash back the original boot.img to confim it goes away?

Mobile data works fine for me, again shouldn't be affected by the kernel. I know MIUI has some issue with data anyway, check the thread in general to see how to fix that, but if that doesn't work, let me know.

Different chips are more resiliant. I used to have one that could sustain 1.8GHz with no problem, but I sent it for repair as the screen got smashed, they sent a replacement and this one can't go over 1.5GHz without crashing instantly, the option is there for anyone who wants it though.
IceColdSandwich 8.3: looks good, only broke camera and rotate buttons, but I expected it
Edit: doesn't work gps and bluetooth, IceColdSandwich either has a lot of hacks, or would need it
Working fine here. Now to see how high of a OC I'm willing to work with hehe.
On user demand I brought Experimental kernel to Arc/S. I know emwno's kernel has until now some of my changes merged (he asked me first) but this one will continue to test changes for "power users" to see if we can improve it even more, and after that any kernel builder can merge/cherry pick commits from my github.
I don't own an Xperia Arc so bugs that I'm not aware of may appear.
Please only experienced users should test this kernel!
After the previous changes were integrated in the main kernel I started again with some experimental changes this time. Here they are, and please remember to thank Garwedgess&FXP first
Code:

So you finally brought it over. Great job with the kenrel btw. And their shouldn't be any new bugs for arc/s users as the 2011 devices only have minor differences in source.
you forget to update op title
so this 3.0?

no still 2.6.32.9
Paul would it be a problem for you to compile this Kernel for CM10.1 or is this not possible?
After my knowledge it just needs another Ramdisk is that right?
I attached latest CM10.1 Kernel for arc.

i installed this kernal and can no longer get root. Are you having this problem. I am on kaspers Omni rom as well.
I had the same issue and had to re-flash the rom. Looking at the file, it looks to be for CM based rome only.
Most if not all modern aosp Roms like aokp, pacman, and others use the same kernel source. I am using a cm10.2 based rom on my tablet but, a kernel should not effect superuser. What errors are you getting? Have you tried updating Superuser or supersu which ever one is installed?
When I tried to run Titanium Backup, but it kept telling me that it did not have root.
I tried installing and updating each of the Superuser and SuperSU separately without success. When I re-flashed the PAC 4.3 rom, things went back to normal.
