Custom Kernel

[loudaccord]

its based on p3droid but i reverted some of his commits, and added the smartass governor, which is still very experimental.

Good call, I've had the best luck with P3. Once my backup finishes I'll give this a try. I typically use setcpu but with the smartass gov, I believe you're not supposed to... correct?

Junior bugging again jam..... I'm getting a reboot with the free wireless tether app. By lemons buxton. It happens when I press the stop tether button, shows an action circle then freezes and shortly after reboots. Happened 3x. Thanks

Try disabling wifi with the power widget before exiting wifi tether...as a work around of course.

I don't think compcache is working for me, when I type in free, I get all 0's for swap.

just ran the ramzswap.zip from P3 to see if that will work.

edit: nope, didn't work

Just gave it a try... same thing with me. My wifi wasn't on.

ended up switching back to the P3 lv 250-1200 kernel. jamezelle - your kernel worked pretty good, just funky on my phone. Got Quadrant scores of 1000 - 1150 at 700mhz which i was very impressed with!

I just flashed it. Unfortunately it boots up and stays on for about 30 seconds, freezes, and reboots. :sad:

I find it funny how every phone is different.

lol yes is a bit silly!

Thank You Jam 4 the great work I am very confident Jam's Kernel will work on evryones phone soon. =D

Update on my testing. The performance is still very snappy and the battery performance is excellent. I've been unplugged this morning for 6 hours now with light usage and I'm at 90% battery life while clocked at 1ghz. Good stuff J! Which P3Droid kernel is this based off of? Low voltage or standard?

sorry Jamez bootlooping on mine no chance to play w/ governor.. =(

sorry yea it doesnt like some people lol

Opps hit submit on accident....... I've tried chevy1 kernel but it ran to hot. I'm currently running with slayher uvlow with one complaint, the wifi acts like switching in and out of sleep mode. So...... my point...... what did you cook up jam? What should I expect?

Installed and testing. So far it seems to be pretty snappy, however SetCPU is no longer reporting the CPU temperature. I'll report back on battery life tomorrow. Thanks Jam! Oh, how can I tell if compcache is enabled?

if you manually

insmod /system/lib/modules/omap34xx_temp.ko

temp monitoring should work fine. i may have to add a script to load it on boot. to check compcache in a terminal run

free

it should output something like

              total         used         free       shared      buffers
  Mem:       231740       223116         8624            0           28
 [B]Swap:        96380         8500        87880[/B]
Total:       328120       231616        96504

the bold being the compcache
you can also do

rzscontrol /dev/block/ramzswap0 --stats

which should output something like

BackingSwap:    /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
DiskSize:       96390 kB
MemLimit:       30720 kB
NumReads:        2690
NumWrites:        4281
FailedReads:           0
FailedWrites:           0
InvalidIO:           0
NotifyFree:           0
ZeroPages:         246
GoodCompress:         100 %
NoCompress:           0 %
PagesStored:        2857
PagesUsed:         740
OrigDataSize:       11428 kB
ComprDataSize:        2917 kB
MemUsedTotal:        2960 kB
BDevNumReads:         798
BDevNumWrites:        1178

but if you dont have a swap partition on your sdcard like i do mmcblk0p3 then it wont show the backingswap section

Jamezelle,

I partitioned my sd card and installed your original custom kernel. When I run "free" command in Terminal it shows the swap line but the total, used and free all say zero.

Did I do something wrong?

Got the bootloop too

 

[juniorjwh]

Bootloop ever since I tried tethering, damn it! It was working well before that. My way to recovery was to unlock after the boot splash and press the power button and put it in airplane mode. Then enter rom manager and flash the newest p3 kernel. Otherwise It would function fine until I turned off airplane mode and bootloop. going to keep watching this thread for updates, I won't give up on Jam.

Same here....but the kernel is quick and battery friendly! Those that were having issues what kernel/ROM were you using before upgrading?

I was on Miui 12.31 + P3DROID 125-1000.
