[KERNEL] Kernel (deprimed_test) - Break It If You Can

Not exactly, previous ROM flashes contain files that updated versions (especially CM nightlies) do not contain..extraneous files that would be removed by a wipe. When you flash a kernel the routine uses /tmp which is actually a /system folder, if the /system MTD partition is full there will not be room for the kernel image and your left with no boot.img to flash to the /boot MTD partition.

You should discuss your RZR nandroid issue with RaidZero as your not the first this has happened to, perhaps he can fix the issue. What good is a recovery that creates bad backups.


For sure on the recovery side of things. I will take that up in a minute or so. The steps I took when the image didn't take were:

Wipe system, boot, cache, dalvik.

Install CM7 #54
Install gapps
Install newest Prime Kernel
Install link2sd pre-install
Reboot

This resulted in bootlooping at the flash screen "M".

Flashed kernel reporting #8, up an running again.

I open to any suggestions as your work, Prime, is the tops

Wipe /system before flashing a new/updated ROM zip. Use CWR as well, I'm off RZR because I had issues with it.

I'll try it out, thanks a lot man. I will report back if I end up in bootloop central again. I really appreciate your help Prime.
 
Prime you are the Kernel KING!!! Thank you for your help with my issues. Flashed CWM, rom update, and kernel. No loops, everything running smoooooooth.
 
hey prime, still wondering if low compcache numbers are normal? im only at 592, when before after booting id be in the thousands
 
yes, i have a init.d directory. I made the file, changed permissions, rebooted but CC still did not start. Not sure what menu you are referring to.

I did a compcache restart and CC is working after issuing the command.



prime - thanks for adding the zram file back. now to get compcache to start on PE5.02 i have to go to terminal and type compcache restart as a SU. If this is not done compcache is not active after boot. Any ideas?

Do you have a /etc/init.d directory? If so create a file called 99ccache with these contents:

Code:
handle_compcache

Then chmod the file to make it executable like this:

Code:
su
sysrw
chmod 0755 /system/etc/init.d/99ccache
sysro
reboot

Then you should have the proper compcache setup controllable through the menu..this is all speculation as I run stock CM7 but I believe it will work.

I was referring to the performance menu, enabling compcache. I would not work if it was not activated so no worries.

I created the command compcache restart (stock CM does not contain the command), all it does is run the handle_compcache script. If compcache restart works, handle_compcache should also work.

Try changing handle_compcache to compcache restart in your /system/init.d/99ccache file.
 
Super impressed with the latest Winner build, which includes the latest Deprime by default! That along with a wipe and my phone has never run so well. RL Benchmark running anywhere from 59 to 65 seconds - FAST. I haven't had the time to try all the features I usually use to determine if anything is broken, but it looks good. Nice job guys! dancedroid

Could you do me a favor and verify compcache works on the latest winner build with deprimed integrated?

Set compcache to 18% and rebooted. Opened terminal and got SU status. Typed free:

Mem: 231292 total, 228980 used, 2312 free, 0 shared, 1748 buffers
Swap: 40648 total, 1848 used, 38800 free
Total: 271940 total, 230828 used, 41112 free

I haven't reinstalled SetCPU, so I can't give you any statistics from that app.

Thank you, that is all I needed to know.
 
You have had issues previously?

Let's say I appeared to. I didn't do extensive testing, and this was under CM7RC4, but here's what I found, best to worst:

Bumblebee, no compcache
OnDemand, no compcache
OnDemand, with compache
Bumblebee, with compcache

This was using RL Benchmark as my guide.

That is an accurate representation. Bumblebee is complex but lacks some abilities currently as it was designed for a device with less CPU slots.
