Root Cyanogenmod-Tweaked Kernel

Has anyone else noticed stuttering/lag with V43 in pandora and netflix?

I seem to be getting some in both these apps no matter what goovernor I use. Even though intellidemand was not implemented correctly, I didn't have any lag like that while using that governor... I may have to re-implement it.

If any *actual* devs would... please chime in with how I can correctly merge this governor?

https://github.com/yoinx/lge-kernel-iproj/commit/c273cbaead217c5e608badfb2a8278855e54ebd0

This is the commit where I yanked all the custom governors that I'd added previous to v43. I added some back in to v43... I wish I would have removed intellidemand directly. It's looking like I the lmf_browser state was working correctly from the video driver. The governor though, just would never stop at the secondary limit. It would always just be min or max freq.

Direct link to the governor file itself.

I'll try to look at it a bit more the next few days since i have off work... But I also have projects around the house :(
 
Sorry it's been a bit.. like a week or so?

So here's where i'm at... im trying to get some stuff to work. But, ive cherry-picked/force merged a bit of stuff.. which may or may not fix issues. You can check my github for the commits.

i think from here on out, i may start leaving a dropbox file up, which will be the latest file I've built.... it won't be a nightly, it will be a "whatever i've built and am running, is uploaded there"


Though, I think there's only like 10 people max... running this.


Here's the link though.

I'll try to keep this up-to-date as possiible, then post builds "official" builds when im comfortable...

Updated that build with a bunch of updates to the bcmhcd (I think it was) driver. looks to be built as part of the WiFi. That was the night before last.

Working a lot though so I haven't done much to test and post an official type build. That current test build though hadn't had a single lock up for me yet though in 2 days....so it's working pretty well.

Running it since last night on the CM10.1.0 stable, no issues or reboots so far!
 
Just making absolutely positively certain this is for CM10.1/JB? Just trying to decide between this and Triggerfied and don't want to brick anything.

Ortrigger no longer has his spectrum so triggerfield is unmaintained now.

Yeah this is based off the latest cm kernel sources

Any tips to get better standby battery time? I can't seem to get good standby time, even if I under clock or use juice defender
 
I keep getting an issue where I get stuck at the boot animation. Hard shutdown and battery removal don't sort the issue. If I reflash the ROM does that reflash the stock kernel in it as well?

OK, thank you. It is definitely fast but just not stable enough for a girlfriend's daily. For me I'm sure it would be fine but she finds amazing ways of borking her phone.

Im curious what stability issues you were seeing. I had one build that was hard locking for me pretty often... but didnt think that I posted that one. The latest build that I have posted... I haven't seen any issues with it running PAC rom. If you've had some... some logcats would be nice ;)
 
I was never around a computer to get logcats but I had lots of apps that would crash on me. Gmail in specific would crash whenever I tried to open an email. I would do more testing but I need my phone to be stable due to the nature of my job. I also had one or two soft reboots when I was trying to install an app. If I can get some time, I'll do some testing and and maybe look through your code this weekend.
 
I would go with the one a few posts up. That had quite a bit of wifi driver updates pulled into it from other kernel projects. I haven't noticed any problems with it. Nobody reported much one way or the other on it, except nokoko for the 1 day. So I never rebuilt with a new version number and reposted.


As far as apps crashing (closing) the only one I've ever had do that was Facebook. But it does that on the stock kernel for me as well for some reason, so I never really worried too much about it, which it only seems to do when its got pictures on the viewable portion of the newsfeed.


@ortrigger,

that would be cool. A lot of the code I have was pulled from other projects with minor tweaks to make it work. That's why I'm curious about some of the logcats to see what code pulls might be causing issues.

Personally, I'm thinking of trying to write some sort of script that will start a logcat running when the phone boots. Then truncate/zip the logcat from time to time. But I'm not entirely sure the overhead/worth of something like that for testing.
 
@Yoinx,

I wouldn't worry about the logcat script. I think you would find that the entire phone would start lagging. I might be able to do a little bit of testing tomorrow afternoon. I'm busy all day Saturday but I can probably get some stuff done Sunday as well.
 
Hey Yoinx,
What are the chances that you might take a swing at tweaking the 4.3 kernel? I really enjoyed your work on the 4.2.2 kernel...

I think you mean 3.4, but sadly I doubt I'll be able to do much. Most of what I've done with this kernel was merges from other sources... with minor tweaks to make it work with this kernel. Porting a full kernel is a bit beyond me.

I don't want to take credit for work that other people have done (ie. Their code). I simply merged it/modified it to work with our phone.
 
Actually I meant Android 4.3, as in CM10.2. I believe tdm is building it on the same base kernel as CM10.1 had, but I think that he had to tweak it to work with CM10.2.

Kernel version is still 3.0.31.
