2fast4u this is the best news i've heard in a while. im excited to see what you and your team come up with. I'll gladly help test if at all possible. When the camera becomes working i'll make it my daily use one and let you know the small bugs as i come across them with as much details (such as how to recreate the issue).
Yeah it was pretty amazing. The only issues I noticed were the camera wouldn't open and that wimax could not be enabled even by using widget toggles
eta: And I'm not whining or complaining -- I get it gets done when it gets done but I just wanted to bring it up.

i honestly dont understand what wimax even is... lol
*EDIT* ignore that. i realize WiMAX is just a fancy way of saying 4G

Wimax doesn't work in what? If you are talking about aosp take it to a different thread or at least say so. Wimax will likely not work in aosp, I have no intentions of fixing it as I can't test it at all. If sense then I need to look at it, but at this time I have no idea which you mean.

Don't have time to make a thread, but new version of kernel can be found here [ICS] Kingdom FastKernel V4 (8/11/2012)
Thanks alot!! Love this Altho My Phone is not stable above 1.92ghz but no problem it still WAY faster then it was with stock kernel!
Wonder if it would be posible to Maybe add a 200mhz setting if possible? To incress battery life even more(dont need the defult setting to that low just setting so can adjust if someone wants)! Also Does the wimax under volt matter when the wimax is disabled? I mean does it always use power even if disabled? If it doesnt then would almost be nice for over volt(slightly) of wimax for improved reception? Or maybe it doesnt work like that I am not sure!
I know I leave 4g off unless I know I am in a area has it, but maybe most people dont do that. But then doesnt make too much since that the voltage to the modem would improve reception, as lest to me I dono.
Awsome work looking forward to more! And it really seams faster even at 1.2ghz so great work!

You two aren't telling me a thing, when I still haven't a clue what your talking about Adreno is the type of gpu we have where it is the 205 lte is like a 225 or something. So more then likely it can't be put in. Though if I knew what you were talking about I could look at it. Where the only thing I know about gpu with is gpu+.

That would be the kernel source and get a few people together to make something happen? More like already getting there
Be warned I am not sure if wimax will work though, as it isn't building some of the stuff for it at the moment. Which is why I don't want to post it publicly yet.
Edit: Teaser....
Ill just thank you for the hard work, but dont bother sending me the link I cant test 4g anyway I am on the Hero S. By the way what ROM are you running there....LOL

I agree. Its awesome! But my phone did freeze for the first time today, on FastKernel v4 with xFuZiionZz. Completely unresponsive, had to take the battery out, kind of freeze. Not sure what the cause is. But what I do know is that I had the governor set to the performance setting, with my minimum at 245 MHz and the maximum at 2016 MHz. It froze after only a couple minutes at those settings while I was taking screenshots of its performance score and stuff, and the temperature climbed high really fast.
Something else though, not sure if its the kernel or the ROM or something else. But occasionally my texts aren't sending. My phone says they're sent, but the other party either doesn't receive the messages, or doesn't receive them for several hours.

Your cpu can lock at high frequencies, sometimes it even varies between the same model of phone. Example awhile back grad could not overclock on his device past 1.8 (this was while we where developing IcedSpeed ROM, and testing the various kernels we used), but I could reach 1.9 without an issue, even though we both where on the same device model. High temperatures or a "toasty battery" is normal at high clock tables, especially under prolonged usage. Watch it though you do not want your temps too high....
Sorry -- it was on the CM9 ROM. With other de-sensed ROMs I could just get a toggle from the play story and switch it on that way, but the toggles were saying that my phone didn't have 4g capability when I was running that one. l
Performance setting doesnt use the min mhz just uses the max and stays at it, so not really that good except for benchmarking. Mine seams to be stable at 1.9 but not so much at 2. On demand is still probly the best one of the few we have to use, I have mine change based on battery level using setcpu sofar working great.

currently trying to flash your Kernal ><
the error i get is
assert failed: write_raw_image ("/tmp/newboot.img', "boot")
E:/Error in /sdcard/<the folder i have it in>/Kingdom_fastkernel-Ics_V4.zip
Status 7

It could be coincidence, but today I had problems with the bluetooth disconnecting without an apparent reason and my calls to be ended (usually when a call drops from my end, I get a "signal lost" message), again with no apparent reason. That said, how can I return all the voltages, but the CPU, to stock? I know you have some commands on your link, however, I do not know how many mVs undervolted are the other clocks, also I do not know how to change just them (i.e. refer to the WIFI, WiMax etc).
Thanks

Rally 517 sent me a link to the so called adreno mod that was suppose to be kernel based. How ever it isn't, I also wish people that doesn't have the device nor know what they are talking about would stick to their device. Though doesn't matter when nothing exists there either. No not to you either Rally..
Andreno is the gpu, Rally linked me some new libs that does this and that. How ever our gpu libs were newer then any I had found. The evo lte is able to overclock the gpu via the kernel is the only thing I can think of being talked about by the other person. Which doesn't apply to us.
