NavelC - Kernel
**READ ** **READ**
The story.....
This is more of a personal kernel I decided to share. It's was made for those that have the Thermal Mod from HERE And HERE
I was keeping it as stockish as I could. But to bring it here, I decided to add a level of safety by adding intellithermal because I raised the thermal limits. If you just flash this and make no adjustments, it will be just fine WITHOUT the Thermal mod.
See post #2 and #6
This is pretty much a finished kernel. I'll probably only do fixes if needed.
**READ** **READ**
Install insructions:
This should work on any ZVC, and possibly ZVA-B Stock based ROM. Just flash in recovery

Scoll down to "profile_number, and select the one you want. (The profile name will show right above it).
I would recommend rebooting when done.
zzmoove profiles
* currently available profiles by ZaneZam and Yank555:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1)'def' -> Default -> will set governor defaults
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(2)'ybat -> Yank Battery -> a very good battery/performance balanced setting -
DEV-NOTE: highly recommended! -
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(3)'ybatext'-> Yank Battery Extreme -> like yank battery but focus on battery saving -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(4)'zzbat' -> ZaneZam Battery -> a more 'harsh' setting strictly focused on battery saving -
DEV-NOTE: might give some lags! -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(5)'zzbatp' -> ZaneZam Battery Plus -> NEW! reworked 'faster' battery setting -
DEV-NOTE: recommended too! -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(6)'zzopt' -> ZaneZam Optimized -> balanced setting with no focus in any direction -
DEV-NOTE: relict from back in the days, even though some people still like it! -
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(7)'zzmod' -> ZaneZam Moderate -> NEW! setting based on 'zzopt' which has mainly (but not strictly only!) 2 cores online -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(8)'zzperf' -> ZaneZam Performance -> all you can get from zzmoove in terms of performance but still has the fast -
down scaling/hotplugging behaving -
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(9)'zzinz' -> ZaneZam InZane -> NEW! based on performance with new insane scaling active. a new experience! -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(10)'zzgame' -> ZaneZam Gaming -> NEW! based on performance with scaling block enabled to avoid cpu overheating during gameplay -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(11)'zzrelax'-> ZaneZam Relax -> NEW! based on moderate (except hotplug settings) with relaxed sleep settings -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* NOTE: be aware when setting tuneables which have a 'should' in comments below that giving
* them 'wrong' values can lead to odd hotplug behaving!
Engine, have you done that thermal mod and if so was it worth it? I I've been thinking about doing it with the pad.

I did. I think it's worth it. Or seems to be.
I plan on having this for a while. And if we luck out and get M, that'll be so much the better.
There's really nothing out there that beats this phone, for me. Specs and screen size are perfect.
Because I have the mod, I built the original kernel a little differently. So to bring it here, I added intellithermal for the extra safety.

Yeah I'm with you. There's really nothing out there that is so much better than the G3 it's worth upgrading. I personally think the 801 is better than the 808 & 810 anyway.
Thanks for the input.
Just an FYI.
This kernel runs fine even without the Thermal mod. You just need to watch your CPU temps and settings.
For those without the mod, use the zzmoove profiles having to do with battery. 2-5 are probably best. Lionheart and the upper zzmoove profiles will keep the CPU higher unless you tweak the settings even further.
As for Intellithermal, I'll keep it in, so there will only be the one kernel that I'll work with. The way it's built in gave me concern as to what would happen if it was disabled. But it seems to be working fine. I do not game much so I really haven't stressed the CPU/GPU to see for sure.
If you have the mod, then disable Intellitherm.
If you don't, then enable it and tweak the temps to about 85-90C in it's settings. Or leave it as default. This is just a suggestion.
There is debate over raising the Thermals in the kernel. I raised them 10-15C which is still within the limits of the phone. That's why you need to watch your temps when tweaking this kernel. When I first built it, I didn't use Intellithermal and was getting Antutu scores of 56000. Up from 51000 with stock. I only benchmarked to stress the CPU/GPU. I really don't care about them otherwise.
I'll update the OP in a few, so it doesn't sound like this kernel will melt your face off. It's just me not wanting to trash someones phone.
I installed the kernel last night, using intellithermal, so far so good. I ordered thermal pads last night to do the mod so I'll do that this week probably. But no issues with the kernel so far, I've done a little gaming today and it didn't get very hot, I didn't change any settings though either.
For the life of me I can't get this kernel to work. It freezes the phone after 1 minute. Tried reflashing, and wiping dalvik/cache. Will be back to stock kernel for a bit. I do love the work you put out engine
Nice....works like a breeze....very satisfied

Well that's just great. I've never had a problem at all so I'm not sure what to say??
Do you have xposed installed?
Any previous settings from another kernel or tuner?
Maybe try this.... Flash skin's oversharpening fix right after the kernel then reboot? It can't hurt. You need to look for it but I'm pretty sure it's in a few of my threads.

No I don't have xposed installed. I tried resetting data on faux, then deleted it and tried kernel aduitor with no luck. The phone feels extremely laggy on start up and freezes when I open any app. It's not a big deal, I've been happy running the stock kernel from your zvc rom. Just thought I'd try this one out. Thanks again for your work!
I noticed there are a couple settings that are unavailable in KA, like power settings and screen saturation. Is this just me or were they left out of this version?

Not in this one. The power suspend, or undervolting, I'm not sure which one you mean, were extras I didn't feel I needed. As was sound control and kcal. This is just going to stay pretty much as is in the changelog.
If M doesn't happen for us then I'll probably add those later. But I'm trying to hold out for M.
@kmull4 Are you using the zv4/6 rpm,tz partitions? If not, try flashing those. I'm curious if that could be the culprit.
Another option is to install the kernel without the ext sd in. Maybe?
I've flash this kernel to a back up that I have and did abfresh install and on both times it has mess up my sdcard to the point that is not accessible at all anyone else with the same issue???

What size card and format is it in?
I haven't had a problem with my 32GB card since flashing the kernel. I actually just got a new 64GB sandisk card yesterday and put it in today and the phone would not recognize it. I got it to work by formatting the card to FAT32. Not sure if its a kernel issue or a hardware issue, never had a problem with exFAT before on this phone.

exfat and/or cards over 32Gb have always had issues on this phone. I don't think LG supports is as other company's do. In all the Git's I've gone though, everybody is always trying to fix it for this phone. In the forums you'll also see complaints about exfat.
Our phone uses fat32 for the sd. Sometimes we can get lucky and use exfat. I've used both in the year and a half I've had this phone, and in the end, I'm back to fat32. It's the most reliable.
V2 in OP Read/See changelog
It's very different from V1. I like this one better.
You may need to update profile/prl.
Then "Activate this device"
(In its upper right corner there is a menu "Reset cellular data" You may need to do this also.)
Between reworking the clocks, and reception items, which are all in "DTB" it can mess with reception.
I also found Intelliplug is another culprit somehow. And it doesn't touch DTB. Weird
So, just to be clear - if I haven't performed any thermal mod, I should not flash this kernel, correct? I see IntelliThermal removed in v2. Would that make v2 unsafe if I haven't performed any thermal mod?

They will both without the mod. I removed mine just to make sure and its been running fine for 2 days with V2.
I'm just letting stock handle it all and its fine.

Although some parts can be considered as original, all are based on inspirations, examples and other people's code.
I have no claim to be original. I am only trying to make my (and probably other's) SGS2 experience better and fun.
I do this for fun. so, if you just want to argue with me please don't. use the energy coming from your youth in something useful.

Who Should NOT Use This Kernel?
If you are going to use very low voltage settings and complain about having lockups, you SHOULD NEVER use this kernel... just run away! This kernel is just as stable as the stock kernel if you do not modify any settings. Do not blame the kernel if you change the voltage or clock settings. If you do so I will blame your stupidity. I will not remove any feature just because some dumb users select wrong settings. If you are a rookie with an uncontrollable instinct of modifying advanced settings please use speedmod or stock kernel.
This kernel generally contain some experimental code and some of them may be even undocumented. I have different release strategy. I always use the latest version and if I notice any problem I try to fix it. However, I do not use all the features of the phone. So, if you notice any problem please report it. bug reports are welcomed, whining is not.
If you judge a kernel by quadrant score, please, I beg you, don't use this kernel. I don't have enough time nor motivation to answer your questions... Some people got 8000+ quadrant (search the thread) and there is no way you can beat them anyway.. so, go away...
If you are one of those who judges a kernel while sleeping ("oh my god!! lost %1 during sleep"-guy) please use another kernel, sleep and never wake up. it will maximize your battery and minimize the tension in the thread.
If you still believe in battery calibration, discuss it in some thread else. we respect all religions but missionary acts are not welcomed in this thread.
99.9% of the code belong to others. I have some modifications and/or additions to the kernel as C code or scripts but they are so little compared to the original code base. If you think you are better developer than I am, don't waste your time (and mine) as I accept it beforehand so please just go away.
FAQ
Q: Does this kernel support Samsung's ICS leak, CM9 or any ICS edition?
A: No, it does not.
Q: Does this kernel support latest Samsung i9100 ROM?
A: Yes, it does. Unless otherwise stated, you can use this kernel on latest Samsung ROMs (official and leaks). it is tested on 2.3.4, 2.3.5, 2.3.6.
Q: Can I use this kernel on I9100G?
A: No, you cannot. Only european i9100 models are supported. Also, I compile ntt-docomo version for each release but beta versions do not support gps and digital tv on ntt-docomo devices.
Q: Does this kernel support CM7 or any other AOSP based roms?
A: Yes, but it only support cm7 or miui based roms for now. If you are using another aosp based Rom tell me and I will support it.
Q: Can I use app protectors with this kernel?
A: Yes, you can. Android logger is enabled by default.
Q: Some custom lockscreens or protectors do not work with this kernel. Can you fix it?
A: see the question above.
Q: What is smartassV2 governor?
A: It is a governor to control CPU frequency. This governor has a built-in "profile" similar to SetCPU but the profile has no upper frequency limit. It tends to stay on lower frequencies when the screen is off and scale up very slowly, so screen off will use lower clock rate thus conserve more battery, but it also has a fast wake up feature so that user interaction will not see the lag when switching from Sleep to Wake state.... (So SetCPU Profiles are sorta redundant when using this governor, you can still use SetCPU to OC to higher than default Clock frequency).
Q: What is the best UV settings?
A: There is nothing as best UV settings. You have to find the best settings for your device for yourself. Start by decreasing 25mV on each freq and decrease it every day until your device becomes unstable.
Q: What can I do to have the best battery life ever?
A: put your phone into airplane mode. if you don't like to do it read the guide below.
Q: Which roms are supported?
A: All android 2.3.4 and 2.3.5 roms are supported. Try the latest version. if you have any problems leave a post to this forum and ask for help.
Q: I get random reboots or freezes. What should I do?
A: Before reporting any problems you have to make sure that you are using stock voltage values. Some phones cannot handle undervolting. Secondly, you have to give details. When did it happen, which rom are you using, can you reproduce it, do you have any custom init scripts which changes kernel parameters such as freq voltage or anything else?
Q: do I need to recalibrate the battery?
A: You don't need to calibrate battery for SGS2. Thanks to Entropy512 to pointing out that our device uses MAX17042 which is specifically designed not to require calibration.
Q: do I need to perform any wipe?
A: no. you don't have to wipe anything. however, try wiping cache and dalvik cache if you have any force closes or any other issues before reporting the issue.
Q: Is the battery life better/worse?
A: maybe... you'll never know if you don't try... People are reporting that they are having the best battery but it may not be the case for your device.
Q: where is the interface to change GPU clock and voltage?
A: There is no GUI (graphical user interface). the interface is used via device files. you have to use init.d scripts to adjust the values. there are some examples in the first post about how to use init.d scripts and gpu voltage/clock interface.
Q: Which governor is the best? Which I/O scheduler is the best?
A: You have to try them and select the one you like. There is a very good explanation about governors and i/o schedulers here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242323
Q: My phone doesn't go into deep sleep mode. Why?
A: try to clear cache and dalvik cache by using CWM recovery and make sure that your phone is not connected to a charger. it does not go into deep sleep when it is charging.
Q: Which version is the best?
A: supposedly, the latest version is the best. But if the latest version is beta there may be unstable code in it. testing the beta version and reporting bugs will help me. but it's your choice... try and see... maybe this kernel is not stable for your device at all, who knows... I will not answer any "what is the best?" questions and I kindly ask you not to ask that kind of questions since there is no answer to that.
Q: How does the automatic battery calibration work?
A: Automatic battery calibration feature is removed as it was useless for SGS2.
Q: What is an init.d script?
A:init.d scripts are the scripts which are executed during the boot time. actually, they are meant to initialize and deinitialize system daemons and manage some startup/shutdown tasks. but in android world they are just "autoexec.bat"s. so, it is a mix of rc.d and init.d directories in linux distros. everything in /system/etc/init.d are executed during the booting process. since it is not standard in every android device,some developers choose to execute files starting with "S" and some execute everything. in this kernel, everything in /system/etc/init.d is executed. you can create a script to change, lets say, voltages, schedulers, apply tweaks, run overclocking daemon or run anything else you can imagine.
Q: My phone doesn't go into deep sleep. What is wrong?
A: Make sure that you have cleared cache and dalvik-cache after you install the kernel. Also, reboot once more after the flashing. the phone doesn't go into deep sleep if it is connected to a charger or to a computer. There may be an application running in the background which is preventing deep sleep. In that case you can check which app causing the problem with "BetterBatteryStats" application (search in Google).
Q: I want more info about CPU governors.
A: There is a great post about cpu governors (thanks to droidphile): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19339524&postcount=10023
If you still want more info, try them by yourself.
Q: Can I use this kernel with I9100T?
A: Yes, you can. the only difference between I9100 and I9100T is that they have different SAR values.
quick and dirty guide to have less battery drain:
- use 2G-only if you don't need 3G
- monitor programs which cause wake-lock. use betterbatterystats and either uninstall or tweak them
- do not use task killers. see the previous item and find the malicious programs instead of repeatedly killing them.
- do not activate google latitude on maps.
- if you don't need pushmail, uncheck gmail sync and use k-9 mail to pull mail, lets say, every 1 hour or so.
- go to settings / location and security. disable "use wireless networks" and "use gps satellites". enable them when you need them, other than that keep them disabled.
- disabling auto-brightness and using a low brightness level helps. do you know that you can adjust the brightness by swiping your finger across the notification bar? try it...
- using juicedefender may help, but it may also cause more drain. test it yourself.
- if you need more speed than 2.5G (i.e. edge) disable HSDPA (*#301279#, select 2 then select 1). you will have 3G instead of H(SDPA) and I think it is fast enough
- disable fast dormancy. dial *#9900# and disable.
- disable auto sign in for google talk (search for talk in appdrawer and use settings to disable automatic sign in)
- disable samsung update and don't use samsung gadgets if you are not in love with them. (this part may be taken care of the rom developers)
- try several radios. I recommend you to try KE7, KG2 and KH3 and choose the one which suits you best. KG2 seems to be the best for me. however, in terms of battery life, there is not much difference between those three.
- be aware that more you use your phone more the battery drains don't complain like "my battery drains quite fast but I did not use my phone. I only played angry birds for hours without making a single call" or don't expect to have a decent battery life if you use your phone as a computer or download torrents using your phone.
i think i will wait 4 feedback because it's based on u2 source.
But good job anyway
cheers

yes, I know that is why I have asked for patience in OP. If the moderators were a bit more patient maybe I would be using some other kernel and wouldn't bother to compile my own
I've uploaded the recompiled kernel. enjoy.
Salam!
Any benchmarks results sir?

you have to try.
smartassv2 governor with 200-1200mhz setting is very satisfying and the battery lasts at least as long as speedmod-v27 for me.
bfq scheduler maybe
..........will u add it in the next release?
CFQ scheduler really drain too much power.....

I have already added. testing now..
power drain change is not noticable though.
Did you get better battery life than REGEmod-U1?

I haven't tested it, but theoretically smartassv2 governor that I am using in the kernel should give better battery life than ondemand with a little (not even noticable) sacrifice of performance. you don't need to use any setcpu profiles with smartass governors.
test it. it may or may not give better battery life for you.
I will. Thank you.

Changelog:
v0.4.6b: Upped Hotplugging a little. Disabled Static Bus. Changed back/updated to Crypted GPS v3.1 No-SSL. Smooth Scaling Enabled 2/2/2. GPU Thresholds changed to 90/50/90/50. Wifi/Phone Experiments added to bottom of S92init_doh. Should be a faster release without hopefully any additional battery drain.
[*]v0.4.5b: Lowered Hotplugging values. They were fairly ridiculous. Disabled sched_mc, redundant with hotplugging on. Freq_cpu1on back at 600hz. GPU Thresholds changed to 85/70/85/65 (Thanks droidphile). GPUSTAYCOUNT=2 on all. Upped ondemand/down_differential to 10.
[*]v0.4.4b: Changed freq_cpu1on to 800Mhz. Changed GPS Quick Fix to H3llstorm's. Updated Ad Blocking Hosts file. Uncommented Wifi/Phone Experiments in s92init_doh.
[*]v0.4.3: 2.6.13 Siyah Required. Moved most of the tweaks in init_doh to default.profile for the new 2.6.13 SiyahKernel. This will allow you to edit most of this in ExTweaks app. Added 80MB LMK v6 SuperCharger memory tweaks by zepp & Pika. Cleaned out most commented lines in system_tweak, and a couple AOSP issues. Updated ThunderBolt! scripts. Changed hotplug values / GPU steps for hopefully better battery. Changed scheduler to SIO. Choosing a lower minimum brightness for better battery. Commented out Experimental Tweaks in init_doh script.
[*]v0.4.2b: Few build.prop tweaks again, these from ICScrewD. You will see them at the bottom of init_doh under "Latest Experiments". Could cause AOSP issues. Also extracting bolt_scripts to both /emmc/ and /sdcard/, hopefully fixing some peoples complaints about it missing. Overall, just a small update.
[*]v0.4.1b: Deep Sleep Freq set back to 100-800 @ 400mhz bus. If .4.0 is working fine for you, no need to update.
[*]v0.4.0b: Deep Sleep Freq set to 100-500Mhz and bus @ 133Mhz (This could cause SoD's, let me know). Set Governor to Ondemand (Good Battery Life with Moderate Use), tweaked ondemand towards Battery Saving. Fixed 100Mhz mV to 925 (Instead of 920). Changed GPS fix to Crypted's patch (experiment). Back to 3 step GPU (100/160/[email protected]/850/900mV). 1000Mhz bus set back to 266Mhz.
Q: Where is my init.d folder? A: On your main storage. "/system/etc/init.d/". Find it with File Manager
Q: I want to change stuff like voltages/governor, but how? A: Browse to the init.d folder, open s99init_doh with a text editor such as Jota Text Editor. Trial and error from here.
Q: Cool story bro, but I can't edit/save the file. Wth? A: Calm down. The directory is read only. In file manager go to the directory, then open your menu -> more -> settings, scroll to the bottom and check root and mount. When u are finished, unchecked those two.
Q: How do I boot into recovery (CWM) mode? A: Through your power menu, through the CWM app on your phone, or: With the phone off, Vol-Up,Vol-Down, Power Button - Hold down at same time till your in recovery
Q: I tried hitting my power button recently, but the screen never came on (SOD). Whats up? A: Hard to say exactly, but lets start pumping the CPU voltages up. 25mV at a time. If it continues even at stock voltages, long-press power to reset the phone and then pull /proc/last_kmsg and let me know!A lot of people can push their voltages lower, I can too. Trying to make this script universal for us siyah people. Don't be afraid to increase/decrease your CPU voltages 25mV at a time, never go higher than stock in my opinion.
Undervolting is pretty much a placebo with your screen on. At most people save is 5% more battery with extreme undervolting. If you get one reboot, you may have drained more power than you have saved. If you want to save battery, turn your brightness low and choose a governor that stays away from the max freq the most. Your phone will also save a little more juice if you can handle 100Mhz as lowest state.

Backup your init.d folder if you want to be safe, this will overwrite all the files listed above. Also if you have a voltage control service, odds are that this won't work (at least the cpu/gpu/voltage tweaks).Go give thanks to: (Click on their names below)

Doubt it. Parts of it would, so you could dissect certain things like the gps/hosts file. Thanks for bringing that up though, I have to remember you i9100 folks are currently in love with ICS. Us i777 have it way to buggy.
Update: I will check back later today to see if anyone has any issues.
love the name
Lets try it. Thanks!
Will give feedback after a day or so. Installed battery version

No harm in having something new to play with i guess. Great thread mate.
Just installed the performance version and it's working great coupled with Checkrom and Siyah. Thanks!
EDIT: Hmm, my SGS2 seems to be having issues with the three GPU frequency steps, as ShadowGun isn't running smooth anymore.

This is where I need your help. If you could, go into ExTweaks. In the gpu tab could you increase the first step to 160 2nd to 267. First step mV 850. 950mV for 2nd. Let me know how that runs.

Tried changing the settings, but it seems it wasn't related to the settings of your script, but the kernel. Running stock now and everything is working as it should. Would definitely recommend this script for anyone wanting a little boost in performance!
Just checking in. Curious if anyone has any issues/recommendations. This script has over 1500 installs since last month in the i777 community. I am looking for ways to improve it, and your feedback is much appreciated.
Thanks again folks.
will try soon, after reflashing back to 100% stock KI4 on my S2
and this thread has the best appearance that i've ever seen on xda, really
Hi cwc3,
After recharge and your scripts it last 22 hours before my battery is empty with normal use.
It runs very smooth, where I expected some lags as its the battery version.
I have the feeling longer usage is possible if the voltage is set a bit lower. What do you think?

Worth a try. I'm my tests, lowering voltages was more of a placebo. The voltages are found in the s92initdoh init.d script.
Did you notice any increase in battery? Typically you should notice a little lag when switching between things. The main battery saving from this script is going to be from the underclocking on both CPU and gpu.
Anyways, thanks a bunch for the feedback.
Hi,
I noticed big difference compared to stock, as that would empty my battery within 18 hours.

New Update
v0.4.5b: Lowered Hotplugging values. They were fairly ridiculous. Disabled sched_mc, redundant with hotplugging on. Freq_cpu1on back at 600hz. GPU Thresholds changed to 85/70/85/65 (Thanks droidphile). GPUSTAYCOUNT=2 on all. Upped ondemand/down_differential to 10.
Still experimenting with these values based off of peoples feedback/droidphile's thread. Be sure to let me know if you run into any issues, always looking for feedback.

NOTE: Changelog information for builds prior to v3.2 was somehow deleted while the thread was closed (at my request...) for a short while.
I will try to recover the lost changelog information and add it as I can.
Changelog:
v5.0 (in development)
Updated ROM compatibility - now works on all current ROMs
Fixed SoD when using ZZMOOVE as sleep governor
Imported the latest Samsung ramdisk files
Fixed an issue where profiles might be reset
- Any further profile issue MUST be due to a ROM or rogue app issue.
- The logs I have seen are indicating that the profile was deleted by something. Kernel is not capable of this...
v4.9
Fixed JB_Sound_Fix on Samsung based ROMs
Fixed a small profile issue
Fixed an issue with CPU grouping
Improved ROM compatibility
Misc fixes & tweaks
New battery profile
New performance profile - Highly recommended! Great performance & very good battery life!
GPIO pin definitions fixed
There's more but I forgot to write it down as I went...
v4.8
Small FileSystem tweak
Improved ROM compatibility
Disabled the boot logo for now
v4.7
Fixed various issues with CM10.1.3 RC2
Sync'd CM10.x init files with CM sources
Set ROOT to default ON for CM10.2
Updated ZZMOOVE to v0.7d
Set default profile sleep scheduler to BFQ
New Battery profile, based on ZZMOOVE v0.7d
New boot logo by Teknodad1974
v4.6
Tuned battery & performance profiles a bit
Tweaked CortexBrain
Fixed a small profile bug
Updated ZZMOOVE governor
-new ZZMOOVE governor is VERY smooth (smoothest gov I have found), uses slightly more battery than Hyper.
v4.5
Nice new boot logo by Teknodad1974
Recovery background remains plain black to make it easier to read recovery text
Fixed a small issue with recovery
Added exFAT support
Updated governors & i/o schedulers
Updated profiles
Updated Stweaks
Added the Dorimanx implementation of CPU Voltage Groups. This will let people see why some phones UV easily and some cannot UV.
v4.4
Added support for Android 4.3
Some code cleanup
Tweaked touchscreen and display to improve smoothness
v4.3
Reverted part of the frequency cleanup as it caused a slight hesitation in the UI
v4.2
Bugfix - corrected CPU frequency table
Boots & settles in much faster now
v4.1
Undervolting has been given a reprive thanks to topiratiko & samprocat
Use UV with CAUTION and expect no support when using UV
CPU frequency table has been tuned down to 6 primary frequencies for efficiency
CPU voltages have been corrected in the profiles to account for the new frequency table
Fixed mic swapping (MicSwap version only, obviously)
Due to the changes made to the CPU frequency table and the CPU voltage table,
it is CRITICAL that you follow the installation instructions exactly as outlined here.
S959G users please ask for assistance from more experienced S959G users
if you need assistance..
PLEASE do not just ignore the need for profile resets!
This version will start off slow (possibly VERY SLOW) and will speed
up as it settles in. First boot can take a LONG time. This is both normal and expected.
v4
Project "SMOOTH UI" is now complete!
You should notice better performance in every way. If not, you're doing something wrong!
Fixed poor performance on Samsung ROMs - they did not like the OOM settings in v3.9 .
Any trouble reports that do not include a logcat will be ignored.
v3.9
New boot logo by Teknodad1974
Corrected the context on the Stweaks->Screen tab
Removed BLN "blink" and "fade" options as they do not work on our phones
Added a new "AJK Tweaked" OOM profile (Stweaks->Memory tab)
Most people will see a nice improvement from the new OOM profile
Slide2wake fix should be functional now
Ad-Block is expanded & updated. This is a complete ad blocking solution now
Ad-Block can be added/removes d in Stweaks->Other
Ad-Block can be updated automatically via setting in Stweaks->Other
v3.8
AKA: THE ONE
Nightmare has been tuned and should be much more stable now
Added ZZMOOVE governor by ZaneZam (a great battery or sleep governor)
New topiratiko tuned profile
MAJOR smoothness improvements made by Project "SMOOTH UI"
Re-added Touchscreen Sensitivity setting in Stweaks

WiFi toggle bug is a thing of the past (has been for weeks now on AJK actually...)
Slide2Wake is now disabled while you are on a call.
New Mali V2 drivers - best graphics performance on the i777.
S4 code implemented for WiFi.
I will have to populate this later as it somehow got removed while
my thread was locked for maintenance.
Some suggested reading:
A Comprehensive (but not by any means definitive) Guide to Wakelocks
Please remember that this kernel was created for my friends & family to use, and I also share it here.
You are not obligated to use it. If you do decide to use this kernel, that does not give you the right to be disrespectful.
Please report any bugs that you find, and be sure to include a last_kmsg and/or logcat...it is impossible to troubleshoot without it.
Reporting something 1 time is sufficient. If someone else has already reported it, you do not need to re-report the same bug.
Remember the 2 primary rules here on XDA are:
1) Be respectful.
2) Use the search functions - both the XDA search and Google.
If you are experiencing issues that no one else is having, then it is not the kernel at fault....
Special thanks to:
Entropy512 (CyanogenMod, kernels, much more for the community)
Gokhanmoral (Siyah Kernel)
Dorimanx (Dorimanx Kernel)
@razen_kain for all the feedback & support (to everyone here)
@mr-cook for all he does for the SGSII community
@topiratiko for his tireless testing, great feedback & support and the topiratiko profile
@4-2ndtwin for his tireless testing, great feedback & support
@samprocat for his tireless testing, great feedback and tremendous support.
And a special thanks to all the donators. Your donations are greatly appreciated!
ROM Devs:
I request that anyone who includes this kernel in a firmware release does the following out of courtesy:
1) Link to this thread
2) Clearly indicate in your firmware changelog which AJK version is included in your firmware release. This lets users identify whether a fix is present in the kernel they're using or not.
Kernel source new repo available here.
Use the "master" branch.
Compiled using the supplied linaro 12.x toolchain.
Touchscreen Tuning process
1. Open ExTweaks
2. Select Screen tab
3. Go to "Batt Move Filter", increase it BY ONE and apply
4. Test it, if it still stutter, increase ONE STEP ONLY and apply
5. Repeat step 4 till the stutter/jitter is gone. Don't set it too high as it'll result the touchscreen capability lost
6. If "Batt Move Filter" is OK without any jitter again, connect your charger and go to "Chrg Move Filter"
7. Repeat step 4 till you satisfied and again: DON'T SET IT TOO HIGH, ONLY INCREASE TILL THE JITTER/STUTTER IS GONE
Do this at your own risk!
If you lost the touch capability caused by too high value then you will need to reset ExTweaks profile in recovery.
I can say its different for each device as the test shown:
-My S2: Batt Filter 16 & Chrg Filter 50, stutter/jitter gone completely, below that value the screen is stuttering/jittering.
-My son's S2: Batt Filter 13 & Chrg Filter 46, stutter/jitter gone completely, below that value the screen is stuttering/jittering.
-My daughter's S2: Batt Filter 14 & Chrg Filter 48, stutter/jitter gone completely, below that value the screen is stuttering/jittering.
A few battery saving tips:
Assuming that you are getting a decent deep sleep % and have no wakelocks, the single biggest way to improve battery life is to reduce the screen brightness.
Go into Stweaks and navigate to the Screen tab, then scroll down til you find GAMMA SHIFT and set this to -10 to -20 .. the darker the screen the better the battery life can be. As a general rule, keep the screen as dark as you can while still having it visible and functional.
Some other battery saving tips would include:
Set Stweaks->CPU->MAX NORMAL FREQUENCY to 800MHz. This works fine on my phone, but some people may need to bump this to 1000MHz for some apps.
Do not use Slide2Wake as this does increase battery consumption by 10% to 20% depending on which touchscreen your device has.
Make sure that you are using ZZMOOVE as your CPU-TUNING (SLEEP) governor as it gets the best deep sleep %.
Use Greenify to Greenify all your apps. This usually makes a noticeable difference.

the phone sim-locked!?!
this will happen again??

I am unsure of how a sim-lick can occur due to this.
To be on the safe side, try using the kernel without resetting the profiles. It *might* not cause any issues for you.
Just installed on Shostock3. So far everything works (including BLN!) except screen shot. Home+Power does not take a screen shot.
Will monitor for battery life...

Battery life has been great for the folks who have been testing this kernel for the past 4 to 6 weeks.
Remember that you may need to tweak some settings in Stweaks to get it working in a way that is good for you & your phone.
As for screenshots, try using power + vol down .

**The first boots usually takes the longest especially after a fresh install. If you pull a logcat during the first boot, you may see a few errors with the vacuum script. This is normal, and will be "fixed" after the phone has built the databases for the apps.
Please allow 24 hours after install and 1 full charge cycle before reporting results. Always provide me with a logcat with any issues you may experience.

Fixed voltages and frequencies
uv_bin overhaul
Fixed inconstancies in installer
Guys and gals with slow binned cpus, MAKE SURE YOU SET THE MIN VOLTAGE TO 700. Or you will get random reboots like crazy. On a side note. I would strongly suggest wiping dalvik (art) and cache before flashing. If not, your device may shutdown immediately after it is done booting. Nothing to really worry about, just simply hold the power button for a few seconds till the google screen appears, and you should be good.

USB Fast Charge
CPUFREQ:rework of all tables. New implementation of freq's using PVS.
cpufreq: properly sync current scaling governor across all cores
Slight boost in L2 cache. Corrected number of cpufreqs
enable max screen off freq on/off support
added RESTRICT_ROOTFS_SLAVE
Added fsync on/off support:Enabled by default
Added f2fs and exfat support
Inspired by elementalx's flashing format using Aroma Installer, I have revamped cpufreq and uv tables, as well as added a few options.
You can now set your default options with the installer. Just follow the prompts as you go thru.
The flashing instructions are the same; however, at the end of the flashing process, you will have an option to save the log. I would recommend doing so. But only share it with me if you have an issue.
The installer is not without it's little glitch. Occasionally, your screen might flash and appear to be going from screen to screen in recovery after the installation process has finished. Nothing to worry about. Just let it settle down and then reboot. I only had this issue in philz_touch.
With the L2 cache boost, and the lightningzap booster, those pesky random reboots due to L2 cache failing to sync are a thing of the past.
One thing to note, when selecting your cpufreq, this will set you MAXIMUM. Meaning, even with an app, you will not be able to go over the default you set. Select carefully. I would recommend setting core 1 to the highest you desire and then setting the other 3 cores lower in the case you need more. And just use trickstermod to adjust as necessary. Oddly enough, even if you set the cores individually and cores 2-3 lower than core 1, your max will be whatever core 1 was set on. But if you adjust them reverse to what I said, then you will be limited to whatever default core 1 is. Hopefully that makes sense.
I have also linked all cores. This means that when you use Trickstermod app to set your cpufreq, it applies it to ALL cores. I have notice some apps, like kernel tweaker, do not do this as they are not written correctly for multi-core processors. Most of the defaults like voltages, fsync, and sweep2* can still be controlled with trickstermod even if you disable them during install.
TBH the only thing you cannot change, is your max cpufreq (meaning, if you choose 1512(stock) as your max during install, the only way to raise it is to re-install the kernel. However, you can still fine tune it).
Another note, max freq is set to 1620; however, if you can still set it higher, will just have to use trickster mod to fine tune it...

Nexus4-LightningZap_p4.4-3.2.zip
Dropped mpdecision
Added msm_hotplug (With updates)Reconfigured voltage table. Boots @ 700000uV on 94500mHz
Possible UV/OV is now 600000uV min 1450000uV max (Be careful with this as too low/high for your device could cause instability. Test your settings BEFORE setting it to set at boot. If you go below the thresholds, your device will become EXTREMELY unstable, reboot, say you should have listened and then blow up in your face...lol. Not really, but it will go into a kernel panic and reboot)
And FYI, the voltages are reported in uV not mV. If you don't know, 1000uV = 1mV; therefore, the kernel boots @ 700000 is 700mV...
Nexus4-LightningZap_p4.4-3-1.zip
Added sec_dvfs_dual. All CPU's handle hotplugging better now

Nexus4-LightningZap_p4.4-3.zip
2 stage update on this one.
Stage 1
Dropped bricked base and went back to kk4.4 (AOSP & CAF) base
Revamped OC/UV. Still compatible with Trickster Mod app
(Because I dropped the bricked base and went back to original base, you won't have full control on thermald and mpdecision for now. Working on adding it, please be patient)
Stage 2 With results of the latest poll in mind:
Dropped the following governors:
Conservative
Gallimaufry
Ondemandx
Userspace
Made Intellidemand/deadline as default
Nexu4-LightingZap_p4.4-2.zip
Complete revamp of base. Used bricked kernel as base (thanks to show-p1984)
Created new branch for revamp (bricked-lz) Keeping kk4.4 branch for now.
Per user requests:
Moved RootBrowser to /data **Must remove it from /system/app prior to flashing
Removed voltage control app. No longer compatible with vc.
Fully compatible with TricksterMod app

Nexu4-LightingZap_p4.4-1.2.zip
Reverted back to Linux Android Kernel version 3.4.0 due to instability
Bumped to p4.4-1.2
Revamped mako_defconfig in order to enable loadable modules
changed build cifs & tun as modules
Left WiFi modules as hard-coded drivers to avoid WiFi issues on other Roms (Sorry about this one guys and gals)
Nexus4-LightningZap_p4.4_1.1.zip
Bumped to latest stable kernel version 3.84.4 (LightningZap version p_4.4-1.1)
Added sweep2wake and doubletap2wake from bricked-kernel Mako (special thanks to show-p1984)
sweep2wake and doubletap2wake is disabled by default. To enable one or both, refer to this post
Nexus4-LightningZap_p4.4_1.zip
Initial release
Just a note, some combinations of governors and io-schedulers don't mix well and you could experience instability like freezes and reboots. Before posting an issue, change your governor and or io-scheduler. This will help me narrow down any issues. And by all means, please let me know which combination you experienced an issue with, and what exactly occurred.
Note that certain ROMs like Omni and Ubuntu Touch that use a modified initramfs or some other kernel modification, may not work with this kernel. I am working on it now.

The governor and scheduler really varies from person to person and dependent upon their usage of the device. I think Lionheart with noop is a great combination for power and battery saving from the light user all the way up to the medium user which is why I made it default. Some have suggested that intellidemand is very good as well, but sacrifices a bit of battery saving yet adds a slight bit of performance.
I have considered adding sweep 2 wake on some of my other kernels, but haven't truly decided on it yet. I think I'm going to give it a try tonight though.
Update available
Read changelog for details
To enable sweep2wake and doubletab2wake:
use an app like kcontrol
in and adb shell or in terminal on the phone type:
Code:
echo 1 > /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake
echo 1 > /sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake
Or, I have made it even easier. In root browser, navigate to /system/etc/init.d. Open the script named 05s2w and remove the # from lines 7 and/or 8, then reboot. This will enable sweep2wake and/or doubletab2wake. You can enable both or just one of them.

That's max, and yes it is very high, but nothing to worry about. But to be honest, the deice itself will never go that high.
On that note, if you look through my commits I never set that. That came from an upstream change quite some time ago. So far back that I can't find when it happened...lol
The reference is in block/partitions/ultrix.c on or about line 29. You can see that it can be as high as 16384 but 512 is actually the default.
I looked in my Linux kernel source and the file is the same. So this could have been the default from forever ago.
Again, nothing to worry about though...

-----JellyKernel-----
This is an all-in-one kernel for Jelly Bean.
Keep in mind, that this kernel is made for balanced battery life. And be advised, that phone could end up in a bootloop. Be awared of that.
DOWNLOAD SECTION IS BELOW!!!
OTG:
HTML:
Some notes:
-Stock ramdisk doesn't have appropriate lines for mounting /sys/kernel/debug, which is needed for manipulating OTG implementation on our device.
-You need to enable OTG support in the system itself. There are apps for fixing that, look up in the Play Store.
-It's still could be kind of jerky to get it to work. Feel free to ask about OTG.
Instructions for OTG support:
1. Open up your terminal and first type:
mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
2. Now it's tricky:
For peripheral mode (it's default mode used when charging and etc):
Type in the terminal:
echo peripheral > /d/otg/mode
For host mode (for connecting USB devices):
echo host > /d/otg/mode
That's the current implementation atm. I'll try to do something easier later.
Features, which should be implemented later:-Gamma control (will implement that later)
-CPU VDD sysfs interface (useless)
-Higher CPU overclock (not possible yet)
Installation:
Flash this zip through CWM and you're good to go.
Please leave me THANKS if you can.
I want to say thanks to:
CrashBandicootX (for amazing kernel banner)
neutrondev (for giving me some opinions)
dazzozo (for fixing OTG)
skyinfo (for awesome commits)

This is definetly awesome news, I'd like to give a link from my rom to this kernel-can't implement it now, but I'd like to make new versions with your kernel, credits given. Great job, thank you!
Good thing I haven't posted this kernel yesterday. You would have gotten into a real mess: networking would stop working after some use of it.
It was a problem related to compilation. I've fixed it now and testing.
I will upload it to you a little bit later today. Sorry for waiting.

It is there.
i tested the kernel a couple of hours,maybe i made something wrong cause the phone was heating and everytime i exit an app i had redraws on the home screen,some apps just close after using them,without the warning of a FC,like testing the kernel with antutu qhen it reaches 80% the app just closes. And it made the phone slower.
When i made the backup restore i lost a few apps none of them are important,i can download them again.
I used no frills cpu with smartassH3 and vr,with the kernel in max OC and min UC values,and i did not touch the gpu frequency,because i dont know hot to do that.
So basically im not saying the kernel its bad,is that maybe i neded to use another app in order to have better perfomance
So,yes i need help or just point me into the right direction so i can search about it.
I've been using modified kernels,since xperia x10,but this its the first time i have these problems.
And thanks again for your work and effort.
As I mentioned in the thread, avoid using 500 MHz GPU clock. This is the most obvious thing, that makes phone unstable. Set it off using Trickster MOD.
Don't know, why mine is rock stable for like 3 days now (there is something wrong with deep sleep, though. I think different toolchain is responsible for such issue).
I even broke into 10000 (10420 points) mark in Antutu, so yeah... Definitely something's wrong on your phone.
With stock kernel my phone was very laggy, always redrawing no matter which launcher, stutter in almost every game (now even Hungry Shark doesn't lag anymore).

Thanks for the response,but mate,as i mentioned ,i never touched the GPU frequencies.because i was using only no frills cpu in order to use the max oc and the min oc for the cpu.
I will check that app (trickster mod) asap, right now im at the work,also,if you can ,can you tell me your settings please?
And thanks again.

Regarding GPU frequencies, it's the same deal as the CPU frequencies, although changing it could either improve performance or make it worse more drastically.
There's nothing so special about my settings: Using 1024 Kb of sd cache, sio i/o governor, smartassv2 cpu governor, leaving both cores online all the time (deleted mpdecision binary from /system/bin folder, because it's too poor for keeping optimal on and off switching of second CPU core). From OS side I've deleted every possible LG app (left nearly at AOSP level), disabled logcat (because I don't need such right now), using Class 10 microSD card, because it won't bottleneck the phone too much. So that's about it.

There's nothing so special about my settings: Using 1024 Kb of sd cache, sio i/o governor, smartassv2 cpu governor, leaving both cores online all the time (deleted mpdecision binary from /system/bin folder, because it's too poor for keeping optimal on and off switching of second CPU core). From OS side I've deleted every possible LG app (left nearly at AOSP level), disabled logcat (because I don't need such right now), using Class 10 microSD card, because it won't bottleneck the phone too much. So that's about it.

ok then,thanks i will try the same settings,also i have a 16gb,class 10 microsd card,and deleted all the lg apps that i dont use. :V
thanks for the reply.
Any possibility of USB OTG being implemented anytime soon?

I don't know. It's in the same position as it was in Kitkat - drivers are included but it just doesn't work.
I'll try talking to other developers.
RAM
Hello! :cyclops:
Is there any form to optimize the RAM usage? Any application or something? Greenify works?
Im using v2,everything runs better,and its feels smoother,the only thing that i noticed is that i lost data in some apps,had to disable superSU,and Xposed,and open all the apps that requiere root,in order to regain access to the apps that use superSU again,and finally when im using antutu in order to see how is the perfomance it just closes when its about to finish the benchmark,always,besides that minor thing,the kernel its solid,im using no frills cpu with max freq in 1037mhz,min in 245 mhz, sioplus and smartassh3,(im not touching GPU freq),but every time i restart the phone,the values doesnt stay,y have to manually change the governor and scheduler.
Sorry dude,thanks for your effort but i think my phone doesnt like your kernel,i used trickstermod,no frills,set cpu,and the antutu one,and everytime y reboot the phone the kernel has the default settings again,min freq in 245,max freq in 1,036,and it returns also to ondemand and sio.
:/
I made a backup of my kernel,what partition do i need to restore in order to have the old kernel back?????
and again,thanks.
P.S. a friend is using same kernel in his phone,he is using stock firmware,odexed and im using a custom rom,deodexed. And its the same result in both phones.

To restore old kernel in CWN go to advanced restore and choose boot

Yeah, now I'm encountered certain problems and I was testing backported Kitkat kernel for some time now.
That one is miles better than Jellybean's one (it is too buggy, because simply compiling breaks certain things)
Kitkat kernel, at least, puts phone to sleep state properly (now my phone stays cold throughout whole day, if I don't use it at all, while with Jelly Bean's one, it was always warm, sometimes even hot)
And yeah, sorry, who feels, that posted kernel causes some problems. It is addressed now and fixed.
I'm not an expert in C code, so some specific programming issues are unsolvable for me.
And the feedback is always welcome for me.
