A 'Team Highly Medicated' Release:
Hello everyone,
As highly anticipated, here is my port of dumfuq's overclocking patches ported to 2.6.35.10.
If you test it and Android either doesn't boot or is very slow, then you are experiencing an incompatibility that cannot and will not be fixed. Please note, I do not know if this kernel is compatible with Android versions below Gingerbread (2.3) because the Interprocess Communication (IPC) agent version differs.
http://www.multiupload.com/CNKQEWXIUH
Notice (added 7/20/2011): It has been made apparent by users and myself that as your battery gets lower, the slower your phone will become despite it showing it is overclocked. This is most likely because 787MHz requires the max voltage and the phone is unable to maintain that voltage as the phone loses charge. While batteries are measured in mAH (milliamps), the voltage exerted from the battery progressively decreases with the loss of mAH. The reason it requires this voltage is because of FSB and CPU multipliers... it is otherwise impossible to obtain that clock-rate with lower voltages. I will investigate possible workarounds.
No need to disable perflock. Remember to use SetCPU to actually overclock! Interactive governor enabled by default - it's a beauty!
Version 3, UPDATE 6/22/2011 @ 8:18pm CST:
- dumfuq was very helpful and I have (hopefully) now fixed the instability issues present in version 2.
- Due to complications with how frequencies are stepped I am limiting the max frequency to 787MHz.
- Please note, this is a TEST version and I am seeking any feedback regarding stability.
Version 2, UPDATE 5/27/2011 @ 11:24pm CST:
- Fix wifi.
- Actually enable Interactive governor by default.
Like it? Click the "Thanks" button - or even better "Donate"!
Peace out.
Is this the kernel that was mentioned to be added to the Salsa Slide ROM?
Although I suppose that's more of a question for Ohgami.
Can I just use this with it anyways? Thanks nbetcher!

Ohgami wanted to have me release it separately. So yes, you most certainly can use it with it anyways.

Ah yes what we've been waiting for. I agree though this kernel is Damn snappy without oc. But I have to try it out right. I'm curious to know though, if you said this works with ext2/3/4, will darktremor a2sd work with this and salsa port?

I got stuck on splash screen for 20 minutes. No luck. I did a clean install of salsa 2.0.1 and flashed this update. Could it be that I didn't let the Rom boot then flash the updated kernel?

Hi, great job!
Just want to ask you what do you mean by "Apps2SD included"?
Is this meaning that you have included ext2,3,4 support directly in the kernel (not as module)?
Thanks.

From the O.P.
Apps2SD included: http://www.multiupload.com/9EVC6CL8FP (your ROM needs Apps2SD support though!)
Non-Apps2SD: http://www.multiupload.com/8N1JPBM4N0
(By "Apps2SD", I mean the old-school Ext2/3/4 separate partition on your SD card. Either of these zips support the crappy Froyo (or higher) "Move to SD" function.)
I removed Perflock from the kernel entirely, so no need to disable Perflock.

I'm sorry to hear it's freezing. It's most likely clocked too high. Please make sure to clock it down.

No, it's been included by Kitchen via the init.rc. Kitchen batches the init.rc to add Apps2SD support.

Overclocking or at boot?... Try lowering your speed and don't set it to start at boot.

I have not set anything connected to overclocking.
The system just hangs on boot (after entering the pin code and before the sense is loaded).

I don't know if the Legend has the same frequency/voltage/bus speeds as Latte, so I can't promise that this would work on another device like the Legend. I'm learning that although the Legend is similar to Latte, they do have some very different parts.

They are both based on the MSM7227 SoC, so there shouldn't be any dramatical difference between them.

I'm using Franco's Kernel v15 + ZRAM with Mik's CM7 6.5.2. At first it was a dream, 1352 points on quadrant and 58.5fps on neocore @480/729Mhz Smartass. Everything running smooth and really fast.
About 6 hours of intense testing some apps (many, in fact) started crashing for no reason. Mostly google apps like Calendar and even Market. But also some widgets and running services.
I reflashed everything, even re-formatted (and re-partitioned) my sdcard and everything was fine again but after a reboot to install google applications (gapps-gb-20110325-signed.zip) the crashes started again. And I was running w/o overclocking at this time.
Searching for some info on the issue I saw a post stating that v15 kernel is for FROYO only so it's not compatible with CM7 but Franco always said that his Kernel was compatible with CM7 and there's no such info coming from Franco himself so I want to be sure of it before flashing a Froyo ROM.
Any thoughts on this issue? Any help is appreciated.
Edit:
Maybe it's worth noting that my phone is a O1 p500h, apart from the 3.2mp camera I don't really know if there's other differences in hardware that may cause problems.
That h is ur problem I think
I really hope not. I've been using Franco Kernel + CM7 for many versions and never had any problems with it (well, aside CM7's known bugs).
I'm from Brazil and CM7 is the only ROM I know that has Brazilian Portuguese (pt-BR) language support. All other ROMs I tried are strictly european and only have support for Portugal's Portuguese (pt-PT), which is kinda different and "sounds" quite annoying at some times.
And while I feel quite confortable using english, it's not the same thing as your mother tongue.
Its weird some users reported this kind of stuff.
I think its safer to use dookmatt kernel than franco kernel
Could a theme cause this kind of instability? I just remembered that on both times the crashes started I was experimenting with a XperiaArc theme for CM7.
Are you using app2sd or data2sd? These may cause such conflicts at time.

Nope, but I have an Ext4 partition on my SD-Card so I get more "internal" memory for installing apps.
You need to use some external app/hack for what you have described, so, essentially the answer is yes, not no

The answer remains "no", I'm not using app2sd nor data2sd.
You missed the point. Whatever are you using for this can cause the instability. Apparently top secret stuff, so... go help yourself I guess.

I am facing certain problems like you after flashing devoid.franco+kernel V15+ ZRAM.
I had following issues for the past 15 days.
1. changed the stock ROM to devoid Franco + V14
I agree the performance of the phone increased. Did OC using Set CPU. Score over the Quadrant was never over 650, not an issue with this as long as i can feel the diff in the performance.
One major change i saw was - as you all know the SMSes get threaded with a particular contact (both recd and sent msgs.). In my case if i receive sms from TD-I-mint, the message was shown as received from TD-Reylon, similar with all the SMSes, the actual sender was never possible to know when you see the list of msgs. Only after you open the msgs then you could find out the sender.
this is continuing still with Kernel 15.
2. same situation after flashing V14.1, V14.2, V14.2.2.
3. with Kernel V 15 + devoid.francoROM with little change. I wiped everything, SD was partitioned and upgraded to EXT 4. Flashed new ROM (05-06-2011), rebooted, flashed Kernel V15, rebooted, flashed ZRAM, rebooted, but phone never came to life, had to remove the battery and reboot, same result. Then wiped cache and dev cache, then flashed ZRAM, the phone was breathing.
Then tried to flash the system apps downloaded from first post of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1049518&page=1, the phone lost its life and had to re-do the whole process of flashing ROM....
With update of ROM + Kernel V15, i had to re-do the whole process for 5-6 times. I never had this problem with older kernels or flashing custom ROM.
One major issue is - msgs and other apps like TB (list of backups) some times display vertically. Today for the first time the SMS app was force closed.
Any-body facing issues like this or issues and you have the solution , I request you to post here.
I guess the best solution for me is to use the stock ROM with franco.kernel. This way I maintain my country's language (and, most important, GPS configuration) and still get some nice tweaks from Franco's.
By reading the comments on v15 kernel, it seems wise to wait for a new version before installing it. There are several users experiencing heavy battery drain. Or maybe install v14.2, but I don't have it anymore.
So, is it safe to use franco.kernel v14-v15 with LG stock ROM (mine came with v10A, android 2.2.1)? Or does it have any compatibility issues?
Thanks for your replies.
touch fix
hi, Does this kernel has the touch fix like Mik_os' kernel?

Yes it does. Am running stock 2.2.2 with Franco's kernel v15 and its smooth as butter.
Running 2.2.1 stock ROM + franco.kernel v15 for about 10 hours now, so far no significant change on battery use.
But I miss mik's ROM performance... FPS on neocore dropped from 57fps to 36.5fps. And my old score on quadrant was 1350 and now is 615.
Is there any improvements I can install on my stock ROM? JIT? HW accel? I really could use some more performance.

Hi,
I just noticed a problem that I didn't have before on my SGS2. There is a small "jump" when I touch and drag just a little. It's not as smooth as before.
I'm running the last version of Resurrection Remix. I didn't have that bug on stock ROM (Gingerbread), and I can't remember if I had it on stock ICS update, because I didn't like it and updated to the custom ROM right away.
It's really annoying because I lose a lot of precision (for DrawSomething or Swype keyboard... Because of the "jumps", Swype thinks I type 2 words and I always get something like "E Hello" instead of one single word....
I tried to make the best video I could... It's not very clear but you can still see the jumps on the device on the left.
Does someone know how to fix this?
Same problem on stock ICS.
I forgot to mention that the two devices are running the same Resurrection Remix ROM.
I think the stock vitalij value ( i think that's what its called ) is 15. That means you need to move your fingers 16pixels before the move is recognized. Some custom kernels like siyah can adjust that up to zero and you just need to move it atleast 1pixel until the move is recognized.

I was on Siyah before updating to Rerruction Remix, now I'm on a CM kernel.
Can I flash Siyah again without any problem ?
I've just noticed that the ROM v1.8 (that I flashed) comes with CM9 kernel. I'll just update to v1.9 with Siyah
Yay! Updated to v1.9.1 with Siyah kernel and the problem is solved! ^^

Hi all!
I have seen that siyah kernel for GSII is compatible with voodoo project, the application that boost sound and graphics on this device.
So I have recently flashed the last siyah kernel (release 3.2.5.2 ) and i downloaded the voodoo sound app release (3.1.1) but it alert me that the kernel im running on , doesnt implement this app.
do you know why?
Mabye voodoo doesnt support my rom? (i have installed ICS 4.0.4 Hydrogen)
Thanks all.

hey buddy 3.2.5.2 is yet 2 be released as of know as it says in ghokan site then from where did u install 3.2.5.2 r u joking
ps- people on this xda are not fools 2 listen to this sort of crap hence please be sure what ur trying to type
Voodoo sound will not work with the SGS2. Ever. It is incompatible with the Yamaha DAC in the SGS2.
Edit to add - As Sun said, you're talking crap. Siyah 3.2.5.2 hasn't been released & this Voodoo Sound support is mysteriously missing from the list of upcoming changes. Voodoo Louder does work with the SGS2, this only gives you up to 6dB extra volume with headphones/a headset & doesn't do anything else to the sound.
I am sorry , i have notified that i write wrong the kernel release .
its not the 3.2.5.2 , because it hasnt been released.
i have flashed the 3.2.5.1 .
for MistahBungle : im gonna try the voodoo louder, but voodoo sound (release 2.x.x) worked on SGS2 before ICS.
for Sun90 :
Anyone can write something wrong, specially a new xda user.
I didnt write wrong knowingly so i want let you know that i didnt ask you to reply to this thread, so if for you an human mistake, is a "sort of crap hence", then mabye you should not write on any kind of forum.

Voodoo sound never worked on the SGS2 due to different sound dac. I highly doubt this worked even on GB.

When Im using any 5.x roms its always distorting.I tried boeffla kernel but still same.Anybody knows how can i fix it?
@ArdaCsknn: Explain distortion: when&where?
There's no Boeffla-ROM. There's a kernel, which can be configured by Boeffla-ConfigApp. What did you config?

Sorry my fault.I edited it.Im using kernel for fixing the sound distortion.Im just lowering the sound.When Im using the rom directly without kernel its distorting so bad.But on old versions of android there is no problem.I can max out all the boeffla sound settings.
I still need an answer.Audio is really distorting and speaker volume is really low.
