Any way to add BLN to my Voodoo kernel? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I love BLN...and I love my Nero w/ Voodoo...but I want to add BLN support without flashing a new kernel...anybody know how?
Sent from my XDA app cuz I'm stalking your mom....

I believe The BLN kernel source was never released, therefore it can not be built into anything else.

Not possible. BLN require kernel source to work, unlike the current implementation of voodoo.

ok...thanks

Actually I believe BLN was originally developed on the I9000 kernel by Unhelpful and first ported to a Vibrant kernel by ttabbal. The kernel source should be available per ttabbal's comments in the thread with hist first kernel release with BLN.
I'm sure a kernel developer can take the stock kernel source and merge voodoo and the BLN code but you'd probably have an easier time requesting Team Whiskey add it to their future releases.

actually, BLN code is released. The problem is for 2.2 kernels for the vibrant, there is no source released yet. However, ttabbal does have some i9k kernels that support voodoo and bln.
But to add bln to a stock 2.2 vibrant kernel is impossible right now.

[KERNEL][BETA] RAGEmod v1-T30

---NEW KERNEL THREAD---
This kernel is based on Hardcore's SpeedMod K1-T30 Kernel
Why another kernel?? Because I can, I like the challenge and I can probably do it as well as any other?
Features:
support for SetCPU OC (upto 1400MHz)
UV between 800mV and 1400mV
support for Boot Animation
support for BLN
SpeedMod K1-T30 initramfs + boot animation
SpeedMod K1-T30 kernel source patches
Samsung Update 2 Applied (as per K1-T30
CIFS working
Charging touch sensitivity fix.
The goal of this kernel is to take the battery savings gained from HardCORE's kernel and allow undervolting and underclocking to further improve battery life. I added Boot Animation and BLN support just because I could.
As usual, this kernel could break your hardware, so only flash if you are not concerned with bricking your device.
That said, I have flashed this kernel on my device and it still works.
Thanks also to the authors of Ninphetamine kernel - their SetCPU supporting code was the basis for the SetCPU support in this kernel, I have also used BLN code from their Git Repository, thanks to creams.
Change Log:
v1-T26 - public release based on SpeedMod K1-T26
Added BLN support
Added SetCPU support
Added UV support
Added bootanimation support
v1-T27 - updated base to SpeedMod K1-T27
v2-T27 - updated base to Samsung Update 2
Same feature set as previous versions
CIFS working
Closest match to SpeedMod K1-T27 but with Samsung Update 2 sources
Touch sensitivity fix from ninphetamine.
v1-T30 - updated base to SpeedMod K1-T30
Same feature set as previous versions
Future plans:
Keep up with SpeedMod current releases as they happen and source patches are released.
NOTE FOR ALL:
Patch files are for developers, not end users.
Source patches attached for developers - apply against Samsung Update1 sources.
Source patch for v2-T27 and newer to be applied against Samsung Update2 sources.
Gonna try this for sure , always loved Hardcore kernel, back in the Gti9000 times, but i think that OC/UV is something missing in his kernel. I'll report when i'll have tried it out ^^. Thanks !
nice.. waiting for you to update to t26..then will give it a go

Typical Victorian!!! Oblivious to the rest of the world.
Good to see many Kernel developers coming on board
May be its time to disclose the sources and GPL as other KERNEL threads being locked for want of it.
Other developers whose initial thoughts/ideas was reused will benifit everyone if what you have achieved over and above will make the original Kernel even more robust

I fully intend on posting a patch file, just not at a computer where I have access to my sources!
First - thanks for this project!
Second - I tried your kernel and I have had some problems with haptic feedback on my phone, it doesn´t work.
Edit: I´m on Darky base XXKH3..

Thanks for that, I didn't even notice that Haptic feedback wasn't working!
Great work !!
Just tried it and No problem so far.
Wait for your next update, based on Hardcore's SpeedMod T26
cheers
Works great for me, too!
Just as already mentioned above haptic feedback isn't working, but I don't use that anyway.
I guess this kernel is in the wrong section. Although I do admit that this requires far more skills winzipping a rom together, this is basically a matchup of ninphetamine and speedmod, and therefore has nothing to do with original rom development.
Well, it's not a cut and paste coding job if that's what you're implying, I studied the required code from Niphetamine and implemented it (but reduced speed limits and subsequently speed steps) in the source for SpeedMod.
IMPORTANT: all vibration not working in first beta. Will fix and repost. Sorry, but it is a beta!

If you can please mod the T26 to add these futures: Bootanimation,BLN, OC and UV. Very ngood to see more and more kernel options available. Thanks for your work man

Can't code for toffee, wondering how difficult it is to alter said limits/steps and put them in another source?
Genuinely curious - doesn't sound tough, I stand to be corrected and/or educated.

I would not say it was difficult, but I have been coding for 10+ years in many languages.

[INFO] Custom Kernels For CM7

Edit: Now CM7 is stable, can we plz get custom kernels
Old:
Kernel Devs refrain from making custom kernels for CM7 because the CM team asked them not to, in the alpha stage of the development.
Today i asked Atinm if he could give the green light to the Devs, he replied:
atinm said:
Actually, we don't care if people run other kernels. We just say that we will not debug other people's kernels - so if you have bugs, you go to the kernel developer's threads. Same as on the other Galaxy phones. And there is more chance of your phone being unstable with each nightly when you are on a different kernel and we change the kernel.

Thnx
not quite the place to post this but party on
I had scaling issues with the stock kernel so i'm looking forward to this.
Great to see this.
I have 2questions.
1. Once we have these kernels will we be be able to flash files to enable Samsung stuff like Samsung dive, camera etc
2. Will new kernels be able to incorporate files from stock rom to fix the Bluetooth issue.
Thanks

CM 7.1 Stable has working bluetooth, and it wasn't a kernel issue, it was a driver source problem, Cyanogen either cracked it ahead of everyone else, or, got access to the missing source code, either way, winning like Charlie Sheen.
I have added my i9100 CyanogenMod 7.1 kernel with BLN support.
Details available here.

Correct, driver issues are not the same as the kernel.
I'd love to see some kernel supporting gpu oc-uv, it's a good feature for battery saving purposes imho.

[Q] BLN support for ICS kernel/rom

Is it impossible to add BLN to a ICS kernel/rom? I'll be the first to install a ICS rom with BLN working.
Just wait until Samsung release necessary kernel source code.
You'll know when it happens, because a zillion noobs will each make their own unique thread announcing it.
Not until Samsung release sources. Then the devs will get all excited and go into a sleepless frenzy just to keep us happy.
Edit:
Beaten!
Ok! Sorry. I thought the ICS sources we're released. But the kernel sources aren't included? Too bad.

[Q] Some questions about BLN/Kernel

hi, all, i have a question about the BLN stuff! well, as i have read, tht not all kernels support BLN? where can i find those karnels then?? i know that saiyeh kernel do? how can i inegrate it with any Kernel so ill be free to install any one?
thks and sorrrrrrrrrrrry
You can't 'integrate it to any kernel'. The kernel has to support BLN & needs to have the necessary code to make it work, whether it does or not is up to the dev who makes the kernel. Unless you're planning to code your own kernel, you won't have any control over this. And if your next question is 'how do I make my own kernel ?' you either have a lot of research to do or you need to stick to using other people's kernels (I.E if you have to ask, you probably don't have the skills to do it).
Siyah supports BLN, and I'm fairly sure there are a couple of Siyah rip-offs on here that do as well. If you want to use BLN, read (do not post to the Siyah dev thread, post to the discussion thread if you must) the Siyah dev & discussion threads.

Noled is NOT bln, they are completely different.
BLN uses ur hardware led keys while noled simply turns on your screen and sticks an icon there.

[Kernel][Overclock][V2] Overclock kernel with boot menu for 4.4 Kitkat [Fandroid]

Thanks to XperiaSTE team for the overclock kernel source first. I just did the config and compile but nothing else.
This kernel will overclock your device to 1.15GHz. The overclocking will provide a better performance and a smoother user experience.
I'm using a kexec multiboot kernel on my device, so I didn't test the kernel packed as elf format. It should be good because I have done flashing the self-built kernels several times.
The overclock source doesn't seems to be the latest but everything works~ Maybe that's because the modules in initramfs? (I did nothing to initramfs)
It's nearly impossible for me to upload the kernel on something like devhost/mediafire, so sorry for that. Could someone upload it on these sites please?
V2 Changelog:
1) Use GCC 4.9 Linaro to compile.
2) Change the SLQB allocator to SLUB. I don't really think SLQB is stable.
3) use 2G/2G user/kernel split. It seems to have a better performance.
4) PID namespace
5) NOTE:NO recovery in V2! Instead of recovery, the kexec multiboot menu by @percy_g2 is added. Big thanks to percy_g2. For how to use it, see Link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/p-development/kexec-multi-boot-menu-t2647623
* To enter boot menu you should press the power key when vibrate
V2 Link: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1mgt82V2
V1(Stable) Link: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1kTyul07
Finally, sorry for my poor English
Hope you like the kernel~

can u provide a changelog or something like that to show the difference between cm11 kernal and your kernal ???
is overclock the only added feature in this kernal?
thanks and i wish you support more!!!

Thanks for your support!
by doing diff -u to the two xperiap_defconfig, the configs seem to be same.
So XperiaSTE did nothing more to the overclocked kernel.
therefore the config isn't changed and the only change is in the code.
Doing diff to the whole source tree will take much time so i didn't do it
By the github commit the changes seem to be all related to overclocking.
https://github.com/XperiaSTE/android_kernel_sony_u8500
you can read cm-11.0 and overclock branches's commits

Just a suggestion for anyone thinking about flashing it right away:
Wait a couple of days/weeks for someone to do some testing, you could fry your motherboard (happened to me on my previous 2 phones).
I'm not saying this kernel will do that, but it's just a precaution.

It's a small time period, understand me please
I was running OC kernels on my previous phones and the motherboard frying happend months after use,
I'm not saying that this is the situation with this specific kernel, these are just my previous experiences,
and it was just to warn people
I had ever used panthom kernel on stock jb, it used 1.15ghz too but still safe used for a long time..
thanks for the great work.but how to install multi rom on our phones?
If anyone has a problem downloading the kernel from baidu, I have made a mirror on dropbox:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/gxuw8o8jtllzmfi/CM11Overclock_Fandroid.elf?dl=0
Ofcourse with the permission from the developer
Can someone please explain steps for installing multiroms? Can I use cm11 along with cm10?
Would the existing cm10 need to be reinstalled?
I've given link in the thread
No reinstalling is needed
