Custom Kernel

Waiting eagerly :) I tried going back to ChevyNo1's and/or Slayher's, and it just wasn't working as smoothly as yours (when yours wasn't causing a bootloop :P ).
Also, funny story; when I had the version of yours installed that mounted my Apps Ext partition rather than the swap partition, I actually had great speeds. Just a funny little tidbit.
 
installed it, got to the lock screen... and it's been bootlooping ever since.
I guess I'm just doomed to never feel the love of your kernels. Sigh.

hmm could be that the your phone cant handle the lower voltage, sorry.

However, I do plan to make higher voltage ones after I get it where I want as far as other features.
 
sorry Jamez bootlooping on mine no chance to play w/ governor.. =(

sorry yea it doesnt like some people lol



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

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
Code:
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
Code:
free
it should output something like
Code:
              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
Code:
rzscontrol /dev/block/ramzswap0 --stats
which should output something like
Code:
BackingSwap:    /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
DiskSize:       96390 kB

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

Jam how do I get a swap partition on my sdcard. What is the process? What will this do. I have heard about this mmcblk0p3 before. I mean I know I can google it but I would rather your take on it if you don't mind sharing. Also once I get this swap partition how do I enable compcache? Do I need a particular kernel to have it. BTW I have enable it once before but that was awhile ago and I would like a new clear explanation so I don't mess anything up.
Thanks Jam

I would also like to know how to do this.
 
The phone was running smoothly until I turned on wifi and I got stuck in a bootloop.

Awesome kernel! Any chance of a 125-1100?


hey gambit does your wifi work?

Yep wifi is working fine here as well


Awesome kernel! Any chance of a 125-1100?


Not for me, thanks. 125 minimum on my phone tends to make it very laggy when I try to answer a call or just bring it out of sleep mode.

Yeah it seems like some droids don't like that, mine doesn't have a problem though :biggrin:

I definitely hope this kernel sees some more updates, P3's kernels have always worked best with my phone but unfortunately no ipv6 so no goggles

just wanted to say thanks (again!!!) jamezelle. the first release of this kernel started strong for me but ended up in reboots. my phone absolutely loves whatever you've done to tweak it since then. thanks a lot!!!
