F.A.Q's :-
1. Is this working on blah blah?
> I don't know. Do some research. Keep the disclaimer in mind.
2. OMG! My device rebooted/crashed/exploded?
> Get me the logcat. Check for any conflicting init.d scripts.
3. Battery drains like hell. WTF?
> Not kernel problem. It's your apps that are waking up device from deep sleep. Check the wakelocks. I don't build kernels to worsen battery life. See here for more info.
4. Signal is dropping since I flashed the kernel?
> Again. Not the kernel problem. Check if you have latest ( and proper ) baseband for your device.
5. Is it pre-rooted ?
> Autoroot isn't included. Just download flash-able zip from site. Users may prefer supersu/superuser.
6. App FC's or something crashes?
> Try reinstalling app again. Give me logcat if problem persists.
7. Does this kernel has X or Y mod?
> Do some research. Check thread, repo, commits etc.
8. Which governors/IO-schedulers to use?
> Depends on your usage. See here for more info.
9. I need more info on something?
> You can find all answers here

1,3GHZ overclocking? It's real or it's only a number?
I knew that our u8500 can be clocked max to 1,2ghz, or no?

He he. Don't use 1.3 GHz. It's untested.
BTW Qualcomm said MSM8255 can be max set to 1.4 GHz ( Arc S ). We all overclocked it to 1.8-1.9 GHz. Don't know about nova Thor though.

Then don't.
Anyways you got kernel booted?
For now, I've a GB based rom, so I can't try it..
The thing that attracts me most is the clock to 1.3 ghz...
Maybe I can try now making a backup, but GB CWM is really slow..
hi ! Give me 15 minutes and I'll try this kernel...stay tuned
UPDATE: bootloop. Installed on ICS stock rom based
Good Job
Hello Friend,
I have a 6.1.1.C.1.0 Based ROM. I installed the Kernel and here are my reports-
1. CWM Menu is a bit laggy
2. The phone vibrates like 2 sec after boot and again the LED Lights up and it vibrates again.
Please make it 1 vibration only
3. The phone boots succesfully :highfive:
4. Lagless
5. WiFi, Bluetooth, WiFi tethering and other functions work perfectly
6. Extra CPU Steppings present- 100 MHz, 1.1 GHz, 1.2 GHz, 1.3GHz
7. Phone manages to recognize new CPU Steppings and runs at them and phone likes jumping to 1.3 GHz
8. Current Config- OndemandX, CFQ, 100/800
GOOD Job! Thanks
PS- Does running at 100 MHz consume more battery than at 200 MHz? (Noob)

Can you, please, make some benchmark test (quadrant or antutu) just tu see if the new freq are working property?
Don't believe in Benchmarks
I got a Quadrant Score of 2779 at 1.3GHz OndemandX CFQ.
But hey, the phone is faster in terms of UI etc. when compared to Munjeni's Kernel at same speed of 800/200 OndemandX/OndemandAX CFQ.
This kernel's CWM is lacking though. Its fully functional but a bit laggy.
My recommendation is that do give a shot. It is absolutely stable, battery friendly and great. Just fix the CWM Lag.

You trust benchmarks , eh?
Anyways , thank you for reporting.
I misplaced code. Short vibration should be after entering recovery. Regarding, CWM, it's not an issue. I'll see it in next version.
Edit: For benchmarks, performance governor should be used. It'll give high numbers because CPU is always capped to its max frequency.
Of course, ondemandx is best for daily use.
Also I recommend using SIO.

Thanks to:
SebastianFM, showp1984, simone201, franciscofranco, Ezekeel, faux123, arkusuma, aftersilence and all guys how are involved in development on many different platforms
Installation:
1. Use fastboot mode to flash boot.img
2. Copy all modules to \system\lib\modules
Good lecture about governors and how to tweak them[/SIZE]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1369817
Changelog:
07.31 R00 initial version
08.01 R01 new govs: lagfree, smartass2, lazy, interactive; arkusuma's touchscreen driver mod updated (now you can customize it by yourself)
08.02 R02 undervolting fixed, LMK from kernel 3.4, 2D GPU scaling to save some juice, and other minor patches
08.04 R03 smartass tweaked a bit, new CPU OC steps (1,9 Ghz max), GPU 2D/3D OC, second core behavior fixed (it was ramping up to the max no matter what was set as max freq), recovery version thx to aftersilence!
08.07 R04 new governor: badass with two steps at 1188000 and 1512000 and tweaked for performance , fsync control, autobrightness driver: it reports now 6 levels but we need to edit framework to use those new levels
08.15 R05 updated to 3.0.40 plus some "under the hood" fixes
08.25 R06 clean start with all previous features on 3.0.41 base , i hope that i got rid of all those nasty random reboots (voltages are little bit higher on default), no CM9 support - its good enough on its own , fastboot version only (due to problems with recovery update script) , JRCU, autobrightness levels reworked once again, CAF patches
09.03 R07 cpu1 stall at 1,2 ghz fixed, CAF patches to gpu,videodecoder, hdmi, and framebuffer
09.05 R07_1 dialer reboot fixed
09.12 R08 LMK updated, kernel base updated

does it provide better battery life?
i don't now, i didn't test battery life that much
but higher cpu clocks usually means shorter battery life
Looks good. Can you add this to your kernel? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792713
//ok sorry I didn't see it
it's already there:

If I tried to change the VDD with system tuner, it automatically jumps to 1350mv and stuck at that voltage.

-there is no source for huawei's wifi driver so i needed a hack to make it work

You have right It's broken I will try to fix it
While you're at it, can you change the value of touch_thres in touchscreen mod for the default 10 (or 9?) to 25...or 20. Better yet, ask arkusuma for his latest mod where it's user adjustable

BCM4329 is actually the old driver. With ICS google introduced new bcmdhd driver
Huawei was so lazy and took old gingerbread driver, that's why thetering don't work
maybe you can add in some additional governor.

I use S7-302u ,Android4.0.3,C232B001.
Can i flash this kernel ?
thank you for advice.
nice work, sounds good.
My Mediapad doesn't work with my Nikon D7000 DSLR together. (If I plug a Canon EOS in (which works), the D7000 works afterwords with DSLR Dashboard, Helicon Remote,... until I reboot my tablet again)
Sound strangs, I know! ^^ (But the D7000 is recognised always @ USB Host Controller and also at dmesg)
Maybe this kernel will help me!
Sorry, but I'm a newbie in generell (@ Android):
I tried already some firmwares to solve this, but only with the SD-card, which isn't very hard to do.
Can you make a more detailed install instruction?
With which firmware I can use this kernel mod?
many thanks

according to this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1743025.html
there is no difference between those two versions so i think you can safely flash the kernel. If it's for whatever reason not gonna boot up you can always revert to original kernel

If you are on newest Android for Mediapad (ICS 4.0.3) you can flash the kernel
but i really don't now if its gonna help with your problem. I haven't touched USB part in the kernel (apart from regular linux kernel update)
To flash you need to use fastboot mode and those two commands
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
To boot into fastboot just install Quick Boot from Google Play and choose Bootloader there

Ah, finally. Good to see AniDroid getting a JB upgrade, well done Novic.
Also, I get a new JB kernel to update in Kernel Repository.
Sorry, v02 kernel have a little BUG that prevents you from changing CPU Freq Governor...
Just fixed it and soon upload the new version of kernel..
Except for what you already stated, kernel works just fine on AOKP as well... I am on Half Illusion CP 3 currently.
Edit: Governor issue resolved with v.03 on HI AOKP, confirming.

Amazing, glad to see you back in action novic!
Just uploaded 0.4 version of kernel with OC and UC support (from 100 to 1600 MHz with 100 MHz step)
Thank you for OC and UV kernel.
I can change voltage from 1100 to 1600 MHz but for clock 1000 MHz and below I can not change the voltage lower. Whatever I press the slider down and save, it always comes back to default.
I use Voltage Control and System Tuner Pro.
Is that a bug or I made a mistake?
Btw, can you increase the thermal throttling clock higher than 800 MHz? 1200 MHz is still safe and we can get better performance. I used to have 1400 MHz with "Odin's son" kernel in CM9.
Thank you.
Thanks! Will fix it in the next versions!
PS: All voltages below 1000mhz are decreased to the most stable values to save battery

Hi,
caming from anidroid ics, i flashed this JB anidroid yesterday but i got a bootloop... need to do a fullwipe, install anidroid v0.2, flash kernel 0.3, reboot in recovery, flash gapps and than everything was ok !!
I see new versions in 1st post, can i just flash the kernel v0.4 or do i need to flash the complete rom?
Atm, i had three issues:
- the clock was stucked, need to reboot the phone
- no deepsleep, changed governor to lulzactive then ok
- tried to change dpi to 280 with dpi changer but got a black screen (no bootanimation)
Other remark:
Contacts pictures during call still pixelized...
Anyway very good rom, thanks :victory:

You should flash 0.4 kernel over the ibstalled ROM, with no need to flash the complete ROM.

- no deepsleep, changed governor to lulzactive then ok
- tried to change dpi to 280 with dpi changer but got a black screen (no bootanimation)
...
Anyway very good rom, thanks :victory:

The only 2 ways for changing DPI without black screen
1) ROM Toolbox Lite/Pro
2) File Explorer with root access (e.g. Root Explorer) and manually edit build.prop in /system
ro.sf.lcd_density=XXX (<- your choice)
Paranoid on Belly Jean // HydraCore 4
Is there fast charge in this from? If not can we get a version with it implemented? It is highly essential at my workplace

thanks dude, will give a try to rom toolbox
The good old lock screen delay we had in the early ics roms is back.If i remember it was a kernel issue.
Also the whole phone is somewhat slower in every aspect.I came directly from ics 1.0,no full wipe if that matters.
Will download 0.4 now.

F.A.Q's :-
1. Is this working on blah blah?
> I don't know. Do some research. Keep the disclaimer in mind.
2. OMG! My device rebooted/crashed/exploded?
> Get me the logcat. Check for any conflicting scripts in init.d
3. Battery drains like hell. WTF?
> Not kernel problem. It's your apps that are waking up device from deep sleep. Check the wakelocks. I don't build kernels to worsen battery life. See here for more info.
4. Signal is dropping since I flashed the kernel?
> Again. Not the kernel problem. Check if you have latest ( and proper ) baseband for your device.
5. Is it pre-rooted ?
> Autoroot isn't included. Just download flash-able zip from site. Users may prefer supersu/superuser.
6. App FC's or something crashes?
> Try reinstalling app again. Give me logcat if problem persists.
7. Does this kernel has X or Y mod?
> Do some research. Check thread, repo, commits etc.
8. Which governors/IO-schedulers to use?
> Depends on your usage. See here for more info.

And what is "SmartOverclock"?

VM tweaks (explained below)
VM Tweaks
dirty ratio and dirty background ratio 1 & 2
This controls how often the kernel writes data to "disk" (in our case the internal microSD system card, not the removable microSD card). When your apps write data to disk, Linux actually doesn't write the data out to the disk right away, it actually writes the stuff to system memory and the kernel handles when and how the data is actually going to be flushed to the disk. These values represent a percentage, the higher the percentage, the longer it waits to flush, the lower the percentage, the more often flushes will occur. Now remember, we are dealing with solid state storage, not the traditional disk platter and spindle. So we are actually able to delay flushes a little longer with solid state versus a traditional hard drive disk.
dirty_expire_centisecs
How old "dirty" data should be before the kernel considers it old enough to be written to disk. It is expressed in 100ths of a second.
dirty_writeback_centisecs
This is the interval of when the writeback daemons periodically wake up and write "old" data out to disk. It is expressed in 100ths of a second.
min free kbytes
This is used to force the Linux VM to keep a minimum number of kilobytes free. The VM uses this number to compute a pages_min value for each lowmem zone in the system. Each lowmem zone gets a number of reserved free pages based proportionally on its size. Default is 2048kb.
overcommit_memory
This controls overcommit of system memory, possibly allowing processes to allocate (but not use) more memory than is actually available.
0 - Heuristic overcommit handling. Obvious overcommits of address space are refused. Used for a typical system. It ensures a seriously wild allocation fails while allowing overcommit to reduce swap usage. root is allowed to allocate slighly more memory in this mode. This is the default.
1 - Always overcommit. Appropriate for some scientific applications.
2 - Don't overcommit. The total address space commit for the system is not permitted to exceed swap plus a configurable percentage (default is 50) of physical RAM. Depending on the percentage you use, in most situations this means a process will not be killed while attempting to use already-allocated memory but will receive errors on memory allocation as appropriate.
Swappiness
A property for the Linux kernel that changes the balance between swapping out runtime memory, as opposed to dropping pages from the system page cache. Swappiness can be set to values between 0 and 100 inclusive. A low value means the kernel will try to avoid swapping as much as possible where a higher value instead will make the kernel aggressively try to use swap space.
VFS Cache Pressure
File system cache (dentry/inode) is really more important than the block cache above in dirty ratio and dirty background ratio, so we really want the kernel to use up much more of the RAM for file system cache, this will increas the performance of the system without sacrificing performance at the application level. The default value is 100, as a percentage, and what you want to do is lower the value to tell the kernel to favor the file system cache and not drop them aggressively.
8/ Enable / Disable Quick Key Reset
- Reboot device quickly by Holding HOME and POWER Key (Disabled by default)

If you don't want some dead pixels, then I guess 1,6GHz are more than enough.
I am just wishing for a toggle in lupus menu for GPU overclock if possible, even though wedgess claims it that it'll cause lag.
Now I am thinking of creating LuPuS ROM optimized for this kernel based on GB...
I'll get my hands dirty after exams are over...

Hi wedgess...thanks a lot for the kernel...but i have one request...can you build a lite version with more available ram? Like in nightelf 10.1lite kernel, available ram is 384mb...plz can you build a kernel with that much amount of free ram?

Isn't gin2jellybean rom based on CM7? I ask because it says it's based on 2.3.7 android and sony has given us only 2.3.4. If it is for CM7, I think that it is incompatible. How came that this rom is compatible and 2.3.7 as well?

In NE 10.1 lite you get 384mb...can't say about other versions...go to codenameX thread to get mirror links for it.

why dont you guys understand the long term adverse effects of OC...take smoking as example...a chain smoker may look perfectly fit and healthy(stable)...but you all know the long term effects of smoking on a person's health. same is OC...killing your device slowly.
make an engine designed to run on 4500rpm run at 8000rpm...you will love the speed...but eventually...early breakdown.
i keep max OC at 1200mhz...that too on ICS. GB not at all requires OC.
TeamWin recovery sucks... Can't even mount my USB in it. Had to push the wifi modules thru adb.
Anyway. Great to see you work on a GB Kernel I was wondering, which min clock freq is best? On the other kernels ive used, it was usually 245 mhz, I think, and not the lowest one. But here there is like 134-184-249 Mhz

Only on Gingerbread of course! You'll notice the performance of JellyBean ROMs, the same "lag", but less, that all JB ROMs have. Still the device runs smoothly. Keep those values and play with governors, the frequencies are ideal! Below 249mHz more battery is consumed, again, the that minimum value is ideal.

Isn't max clock of 460 MHz way too little ? Or do you man that the max min clock I should set, should be 460?

No, 600+ mHz are useless for Gingerbread. Trust me, I had a X10 mini pro with nAa kernel and 600mHz was more than enough.
Give a try min 249, max 460, gov Lionheart. And tell me the performance impact you notice. I am on these settings now and phone is just great on Gin2Jellybean.

Oc option for what if you can get performance on 460hz... only thing you will get is better battery, you unable to do multi tasking & play games on such settings

Usage of some features
Dynamic management of dirty page writeback
What is does?
- Allows to dynamically manage the dirty page writebacks with two different intervals, one when the screen is on and another when the screen is off. By using a higher interval we have better performance and less battery consumption, with a very low risk of data loss.
Thanks to Christopher83 and kingBABAsula.
Usage-
To enable it:
Code:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/dynamic_dirty_writeback
To disable it:
Code:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/dynamic_dirty_writeback
To customize intervals (in centisecs):
Code:
echo xxxx > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_active_centisecs
echo xxxx > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_suspend_centisecs

Nice work bro
Great work bro
everything works fine !
tnx :good:
v2 released
Cheers,
AJ
been using triple recovery on xperia sp.
Will try this one on my xperia P :good:
Nice job ^^
But one question: is this 3.4 kernel, so yes can you make one for JB ?

Nope. This is 3.0.101 though I can bring dual recovery to stock JB kernel.

damn talk about side order :highfive:
Great work @Abhinav2! Just a quick suggestion. Maybe you could update the mali graphic driver and/or add OC feature to Cpu (and Gpu if you will)

I tried update mali drivers and gralloc to 6 may update but unfortunately it didn't passed kernel logo. I'll try to debug it but it can take time. Also DevSwift1 tried GPU OC but it had no effect on device.

the first custom kernel for kitkat, thanks AJ!
1. dual recovery seems cool, but imo there is no real benefit when both of them do effectively the same. Again, great job that you managed to include both, but to me it becomes just "bloat". no offence.
2. I'm not a fan of overclocking but there are uses for better CPU/GPU controls. I would love to underclock and undervolt them to squeeze a little more battery out of my phone. God, it seems lots of those kids here care about their "gaming performance" and their "lagfree" "smoothness", but I use my phone as a phone and I don't give a sh... about that if I can get a couple more hours of use.
What's your opinion on this? Do you think we will ever get this working here like all the others (looking at those qualcomms and snapdragons in the other forums)? I mean we got more manufacturer sources than most of them, right? Or does it come down to sacrificing a phone to find those precious values for the right voltages, ...? Please shed some light on this for me, I never read a real answer from any dev out there.
3. On 4.1.2 we had this phantom kernel with a lot more CPU frequency steps. Some governors worked definitely better when they can scale over more frequencies. Maybe you can implement that?

1. Got many PMs asking for dual recovery so included it. And it won't slow down the boot process or make it laggy. Why?
If you extract the ramdisk you'll see that init.sh script controls the booting just like in CM(new builds)/AOSX. What the help of this script, ramdisk and recoveries are separately extracted so it doesn't extract and ramdisk or ramdisk-recovery until and unless the particular key assigned to it is pressed.
2,3. Honestly, I never looked at oc/uc, as I don't like playing with my CPU clock at all. Though I can try to integrate it and can only give a proper answer after trying
Cheers,
AJ
OK guys. I did read about OC CPU and various methods for our devices and basically all the kernels which say having OC aren't properly adding it. What they actually did was just adding CPU frequency names in the table in drivers/cpufreq/dbx500-cpufreq.c. Also it is quite hard(and maybe risky) to OC our kernel since I can't find the OC threshold anywhere. So it'd be better not to bring OC to it.
And about triple recovery, I won't be bringing it in this or kumquat kernel. DooMLoRD said that he wanted to keep it exclusive to DooMKernel and TBH I agree with him. He did put a lot of efforts in it and I respect his decision.
Cheers,
AJ
thanks for the amazing work
