Root Matrix Kernel - Version 1.1

[rbheromax]

its really simple
just use unmkbootimg and break it down and remake bootimg with mkbootimg program

Sorry been out of it for a bit. I can repack the kernel with the com boot img.

What he said....really easy....

Lol try it. Ask junkie. This phone is a PITA, but I know how to do it now

 

[junkie2100]

that it is lol. but most ztes are. you get used to it

 

[jimsmith80]

@jimsmith80:
I sent a pull request on github for GPU OC, SIO I/O sched, and updated qualcomm crypto

Just got a free chance to work with the kernel again. I didn't seen your PR

 

[jimsmith80]

Found it. Had a blind moment

 

[rbheromax]

yeah i see

 

[jimsmith80]

I added your changes and the bench in antutu jumped from the 12588 that I achieved with the CPU over clock to 13913. Amazing but still shy of the 15k I'm trying to get out of this thing. I'm not sure what's up with quadrant but the benches haven't moved.

 

[rbheromax]

i havent been able to get over 15k on any 8960 device yet and trust me I've been around lol. i think if the row gov is added it may boost to ~14200? but i think with improvements we will get there

 

[jimsmith80]

I'm thinking of bumping the CPU clock up. Might take it to the full 1.8 you proposed. Ive made a zip for stock and DSF. Once I'm 100% that its safe as a daily driver I'll post it. I'm also going to start testing with cm10. Id really like to build ICS from aosp, but am lacking the hardware to do so

 

[rbheromax]

wait you got almost 14k on less than 1.8?
wow thats awesome
the only thing stopping me from pushing out a source based rom for every phone imaginable is hardware limitations lmao
us folks on the galaxy victory side have wifi working but it reboots our phones for some reason (mem leak error or bad addr?) on cm10

 

[jimsmith80]

Yeah take a look at my source. the clock speed is at 1.67. 15k can happen

 

[jimsmith80]

Just ran a second test and scored 14404

 

[rbheromax]

so 1.8 will push it past i think.these are great scores

 

[jimsmith80]

Im comfortable with 1.7 as this chip is designed for that speed, but there may be other ways to pick up a few points

 

[rbheromax]

well im here adding every iosched i can find, and trying to hack in the nonworking cpu govs
i already added usb fast charge mod
i heard OV the mem channels by 100 mV will offer more speed
im just playing around in source to see what i already know how to modify

 

[donjuro]

What about the fiops scheduler?

 

[rbheromax]

never heard of it until well..just now lol
i threw it in there and 2 functions error-ed out, so i rewrote one, and im working on the other one, but tonight i should have it completed and made a commit on github

 

[jimsmith80]

Matrix kernel in now available as a zip for stock and stock based roms such as DroidSmith, and hopefully others soon to come.

https://github.com/rbheromax/Matrix_Force/commit/f43a2db2d7e56ce7257c9f8e82fa35d8a2aa1077

adds gpu control (right now the gpu ramps up when needed but idles at 128 mhz and isnt very consistent, but with this you can set min/max gpu freqs unlike before)

After installing it, what would be the procedure to remove it? Restore a previous nand?

 

[donjuro]

So was fiops added to the kernel?

 

[jimsmith80]

Fiops has not been added yet, and restoring your boot partition will remove it.

 

[rbheromax]

im trying to add fiops but it doesnt wanna play nice with our kernel version (3.0.8) and the way elevator.c is setup. Im trying to hack it in without removing too much or adding too much. Every other sched goes in just fine (vr, row, sio) but this one wants to be a douchebag.
