DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY HARD OR SOFTWARE BASED DAMAGE. IF YOUR PHONE BRICKS, YOU LOSE IMPORTANT DATA, OR OTHERWISE INCUR LOSSES AS A RESULT OF RUNNING THIS KERNEL, ITS NOT MY FAULT.
THE LATEST NIGHTLIES HAVE BEEN REMOVING VOLTAGE CONTROL STATS, SO PLEASE REMOVE ALL OVERCLOCKING BEFORE FLASHING A NIGHTLY OR AN UPDATE FROM HERE.
This is a CM7 based kernel with a 1.6 Ghz overclock, Voodoo sound and color fixes, uv support, and BLN. See the changelog for all the updates and features.
Informations (THESE CHANGE ON A REGULAR BASIS):
1. Max clock is set to 1GHz on the first boot, set the max clock in CM settings or voltage control or setCPU.
2. I cannot possibly stress this enough. IF YOU EXPERIENCE BUGS WHILE ON THIS KERNEL, POST HERE. Do NOT submit bug reports to the CM team, until you have flashed back to stock CM, and can verify the bug exists there too.
3. To undervolt, use either Voltage Control, SetCPU, or Control Freak.
4. Want to go back to stock? First, if there's any particular reason, please let me know. I love to have feedback, good or bad. Then, just flash the latest official update.
5. Sources --> https://github.com/TheEscapistxda/android_kernel_samsung_aries
6. BLN is disabled by default. Please enable it by using the BLN control app from the market.
7. Its not an error. Don't freak out. Let it boot.
Thanks to Netarchy for his Nexus S oc code, coolhbo for setCPU, the CMSGS team for their work, Supercurio for Voodoo, raspdeep for his oc/uv patches(showed me how to create a sysfs interface for uv), Xan for the uv app, neldar for BLN, and cyanogen for his amazing rom.

-kernel hz = user hz =100
-update timings (Thanks Kang)
-enabled Tiny RCU
Removed the returntostock kernel
v3.4
Updated Voodoo sound to v5
Implemented voodoo color v2
v3.5
Updated Voodoo sound driver number to v5 (now the control app says 5)

Some initial work on BLN (disabled)
Added frequency_voltage_table for compatibility with custom frequencies in the uv app (disabled due to bugs)
v4.0 - (BUGGY, BETA RELEASE)
Increased voltage on 600mhz and 1.3ghz steps (let me know how this affects stabilty, guys)
Implemented BLN (VERY EXPERIMENTAL AND BUGGY)

fixed the ?mv bug in voltage control
Fixed bln (thanks to neldar)
Added 1000hz version of the kernel
Did a few tweaks to smartass, it's still kinda sketchy though
Updated voodoo sound to v6
There's probably more, I just can't remember them.
v4.2
More stability tweaks on 1300mhz
-The voltage for 1300mhz is now the same as 1200mhz, so you won't be able to undervolt it as much in the app, but it seems to help with stability.
Latest bln from neldar (fixes the touchkey disabled bug, and the touchkey on during sleep bug)
Enabled the microphone presets for voodoo sound
v4.3
Added 1400, 1500, and 1600mhz steps

Integrated the sdcard r/w cache fix (Thanks to Existz for pointing it out)
v4.5
Upstream fixes:
-New wifi driver
-New kernel flashing method, which should help bad block people
-Dual sd card sharing
Added a time that a frequency must stay at before scaling up in smartass
- You can tweak it same way as you can tweak all the other settings, its ramp_up_rate_ns

-Some other stuff, nothing really important. Its all upstream changes anyway.
NIGHTLIES/WHENEVERS:
#1[May 25]
+Working ril (data + service)
+working gps
+switched to mfloat=softfp as it gives slightly higher linpack scores
+Voodoo sound v9
+LZO compression for a faster boot up time.
Known bugs:
Rild crashes in areas with no service, causing a hard reboot. (Can anyone tell me if this happens on the stock kernel?)
#2[May 27]
+Actually working ril (no more reboots)
+Optimized for size
+Updated to 2.6.35.13 kernel (No, I dont have a changelog. There is one on the internet somewhere. Needless to say, its huge.)
+Probably some other stuff.
Known bugs:
Bln is finicky on this build, try reflashing/rebooting if it doesn't work at first.
#3 [May 29]
+States table in voltage control kinda works, but is buggy.
+disabled ext2
+re-added 1.6Ghz with a higher voltage (be careful guys).
+upped 1.55ghz by a few Mhz so it should be one or two above rather than below.
#4 [June 4]
+Disabled the states_enabled_table again, cause voltage control was really sketchy about keeping the states properly enabled. Hopefully the new rewrite will help.
+Fascinate support
#5[June 28] UNTESTED
+All upstream merges
+GPU bus clock speed modifiable using Control Freak
+Other stuff that I can't remember or have time for
#6[July 12]
+Upstream changes
+Fixed BLN (For whatever reason, it won't work after booting into recovery. Do a normal reboot, and it'll work).
+Reenabled the debugging, cause it was causing issues
This is nice!! Waiting for Voodoo fixes!
So can we flash back to original cm7 kernel after this using odin?

I believe you need to use the cm7-update.zip file to install the original cm7 kernel - unless there is a .tar cm7 kernel?

It'd be great if you can integrate BLN into the kernel as well!! Running kang's voodoo color/sound right now, but who ever comes out with a BLN kernel will have my full attention(and of many other people I imagine judging by the posts on the CM forum)!!

yes please 1+ for BLN.
That being said with Voodoo fixes soon to be intergrated, and hopefully UVing Im watching this thread closely.
And when we do flash this would we have to do anything differently? Or just flash it over the current set up via CWM like any other ROM.
Thanks and great work so far.
Would these recent captivate cm7 voodoo kernel be helpful to integrating voodoo into your oc kernel?
http://kang.project-voodoo.org/
Voodoo sound is almost done, either tonight or tomorrow. Then, ill look at making this compatible with xan's UV app. Bln is probably going to be last, as it looks like the most work. There is currently no bln for any nexus s kernel, so ill have to see if it'll work.

This might seem like a pretty hefty request, but what are the chances that you can implement MKV splitting into the kernel? I wouldn't expect the kernel to be the route to getting MKV support on a device, but apparently developers for the Advent Vega Android Tablet have done exactly that. H.264 acceleration on a device that supports the stream should work no matter the container as long as something else in the chain parses the container first.
I'm not sure about licensing issues though, but it seems that a device that came with support for the MKV container (pretty much all Samsung devices, even their TV's and Bluray players) shouldn't be in violation of anything if it's running a custom ROM that contains the same functionality. Or maybe we'll have to wait for a Samsung Gingerbread source and create a Samsung-CM7 Frankenstein project?
Not being able to play my library of 720p MKV's with embedded softsubs without remuxing (and remuxing to mp4 still doesn't support embedded softsubs) on my Captivate is a dealbreaker keeping me away from CM7, but the other features and the possibility of syncing a Wiimote to control the new N64oid emulator is still very appealing

Well, I'll keep an eye out for anything that might factor into that, but between having other, more crucial features that need to go in first, and knowing next to nothing about video codecs, I can't promise anything. Sorry.
Also, I'm pretty sure I've got voodoo sound in there, but the cm build system is messed, so I haven't been able to build a working kernel or rom all day. Once builds are working again, do people want me to start posting "nightly" builds in here too?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
merging voodoo sound and color is fairly simple. you just have to "git pull git://github.com/project-voodoo/linux_samsung.git nexus-s-voodoo" and compile. the pull command automatically changes the content of each file that's different between your local files and supercurio's branch files. i hope this makes it easier for you.

Sadly, no. the cm kernel isn't a stock nexus kernel, theres a lot changed. Even if I could some how merge in just sound and color, there would probably still be issues.
I was actually planning on implementing voodoo color last, because theres still so much work bring done on it. I figured once I got everything else in there, it would be further along.
Also, this is partly a fun learning project for me, manually patching files is my kind of fun.

actually there aren't any issues. I've been using a kernel I built after the pull for several days now.

Of course. MKV support is definitely not a primary feature of a kernel, but it sure would be nice. Also, I'm not talking about a codec, I'm talking more of a demuxer that simply streams the H.264 and audio streams as if they weren't inside the MKV so the hardware could play them like any MP4 (kind of like an Android equivalent of Haali Media Splitter).
I'm giving this a try...i really like the fact that I can choose how my cpu scales....hoping it helps battery life a little...also looking forward to you adding uv...
Sent from my Captivate using XDA App
Testing now. While I'm not particularly interested in the OC, the fact that you're using SetCPU and it's working makes me want to see if I can UC this. The default kernel doesn't play too well with this.

- Various tweaks for more smoothness and reliability
- LED notifications using Neldar's BLN
CHANGELOGS IN #2 POSTThe frequency/voltage & informative UV settings table is as follow for V13 kernel :
Note that these UV settings will be unstable on many devices. It's only informative.
1700 MHz - [email protected] 243 MHz - 1.500v / -> Most phones will fail here. -25 to -50mV may help to stabilize. Much stabler as unique frequency for benchmarks.
1600 MHz - [email protected] 229 MHz - 1.500V / -> That's high and many devices will fail on this frequency. Find working UV for you if any.
1500 MHz - [email protected] 250 MHz - 1.500V / -25mV
1440 MHz - [email protected] 240 MHz - 1.475V / -50mV
1400 MHz - [email protected] 233 MHz - 1.450V / -50mV
1300 MHz - [email protected] 217 MHz - 1.400V / -50mV
1200 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.350V / -50mV
1000 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.250V / -50mV - If you have stability issues, try to let this one by default.
800 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.200V / -75mV
400 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.050V / -100mV
200 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 0.950V / -150mV
100 MHz - [email protected] 100 MHz - 0.950V / -200mV - (can be very different between two devices)
GPU frequency is linked to bus speed
More volts is not always equal to more stability. Try to add more UV (less volts) if the frequency you're trying to achieve is unstable.
Considering all phones will respond differently to OC/UV, to tweak the values to suit your device will be required.
By default, no overclock/undervolt is applied. You'll need to use one of the tools below to adjust the frequencies and voltages.

- Some users still get freeze issue on boot. If you have this issue, please use the "no-optimization" kernel for you device from this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14180722&postcount=2077
03/06/2011 - V10B To use with newest builds only (equal or newer than 28/05) !
- Upstream sync (FM radio, new Voodoo Sound implementation, etc...)
- Back to 4.4.3 toolchain - needed for new RIL
- Big cleanup - rewrite from scratch
- Many fixes
- New tweaks for speed on 4.4.3 toolchain
- New tweaks for stability on 4.4.3 toolchain
- Black magic
17/06/2011 - V10C (Updated) To use with newest builds, #28+ for i9000 or equivalent
- Upstream sync (cpuidle, updated drivers (wifi etc.), Recovery 4.0.0.x, etc...) (updated as of today 17/06)
- More debug stuff disabled
- Dock audio support (experimental)
- Added DIDLE (Deep Idle) support (removed, buggy)
- New voltage tweaks for added stability on some devicesV9
16/05/2011 - V9A
- Merged with the now dead V8C update because of new added features
- Upstream sync : Calculate battery percentage as percent of max capacity reported when battery full, new wifi driver, etc.
- New PMEM settings for more available RAM (now 331MB)
- 1.54GHz step added with some gentle settings for now.
- New step by step frequency switch when scaling down (part of the Galaxy S II port from Bilboa1) - more stability on highest frequencies
- Corrections and further tweaking on smartass governor + some fixes from Netarchy (Nexus S). 400MHz lock when screen is on removed (not needed anymore -> more power saving)
- Higher cache for faster SDcard read speed
- New sleep settings : Effective lock to 400MHz max when screen is off -> fix long wake up/hiccups when playing music or similar use. Be careful with your UV settings on 200 and 400MHz steps to avoid sleep of death problems ! These were not used on previous versions of my kernel (locked to 100 MHz when screen off and locked to 400MHz when screen on with a buggy gap in smartass governor forcing generally 600+ MHz)
- 600 MHz step removed (it was generating instabilities on some phones when jumping to 800 or down to 400 when using UV)
- Some voltage tweaks for added stability on some devices (as always)
- Cleanups on unused/no more needed stuff
- Little surprise, thanks to Morfic
- Updated to V9A² to fix SOD and some performance issues
21/05/2011 - V9B
- Upstream sync (CWM recovery 3.1.0.1, better screen colors (kills voodoo color for now and looks awful on my 0516 build, but should be good on latest), GPIO fixes, samsung modemctl...) + small changes on my side for official CyanogenMod repository compatibility
- Voodoo Sound updated to V9 / cleaned voodoo color stuff until it works again
- New cleaner bootlogo based on the one in first post, preferred by most users
- Some additional compilation flags from Netarchy and Zacharias.maladroit (better overall performances + NEON)
- Screen refresh frequency bumped to 72Hz (68Hz effective). It'll uncap FPS to 66 again but seems stabler than before on framerate (the divide/2 behavior happens less)
- Added screenstate scaling script from well.heeled.man as a test (with my kernel's smartass default settings). It should give better sleep power consumption as well as better power efficiency on screen off tasks like music playing etc. by switching to conservative governor.
If you want more information, discuss on this or contribute to enhance it, please come here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087646
- Adding some stuff from Zacharias.madadroit :
- Higher battery charging temperature
- Scheduler tweaks
Alternative version now available (V9B-VC) using old AMOLED panel color/gamma settings and with Voodoo Color V2 added back.
24/05/2011 - V9C TO USE WITH CM7 Nightly build #12 OR HIGHER ONLY
(Updated to fix "no service" issue, but still sucks.. unstable on #12 build, very stable on others but no service)
- Upstream sync (PMEM disabled (gives 339MB RAM now), new RIL, headset fixes...)
- Divider changes for MUCH better stability on 1.2GHz at the cost of a slight decrease on performances
- New branch with Voodoo Color display driver and "old" color settings named "VC"
- Fix for Vibrant no service problem - hopefully
- Small changes on smartass governor for better scalability (reverts some old settings not needed anymore with the screenstate script)
- Glitch logo now in update script too for nanu_x2 to be amazed when installing my kernel
24/05/2011 - V9D TO USE WITH CM7 Nightly build #11 OR LOWER (for i9000, or cappy/vibrant equivalent) AND MIUI ONLY
First "D" revision.. Sound like duty. It's basically a fix of a fix done to make the V9C features available for "stable builds" (considering the i9000 #12 isn't)
- Obviously all the V9C changelog
- Using old RIL to be compatible with builds before #12 for I9000 (--> WON'T WORK with #12 for i9000 or equivalent !)
- Replaced 1.54GHz step by 1.6GHz (1.54GHz step was somewhat useless, too close to 1.5Ghz, and slower overall because of the lower bus speed)
- I can't build Vibrant ATM, the CM7 build system is broken on this device or I'm doing something wrong but I wasn't able to fix it. Any help is appreciated. I'm sorry for Vibrant users I'm screwed.V8
07/05/2011 - V8A - To use with 05062011 or newer CM7 build (useable on MIUI RC8 but you'll lose camera - MIUI needs an update)
- Upstream sync (camera fixes etc.)
- More stability fixes
- Cleanups on OC code (found that 1.2 and 1.3GHz were very unstable compared to earlier releases)
- More work on Vibrant/Captivate. The kernels are now available to download but are untested - for now. Feel free to try and report any problem or if all runs well. If I have enough positive reviews, these kernels will be released in their respective device sections.
11/05/2011 - V8B
Upstream sync only :
- USB switch suspend
- TV out stuff
- Fascinate specifics
- Revert "Got back to previous samsung_modemctl" for 05112011 CM7 build
V7
02/05/2011 - V7A - To use with 05012011 or newer CM7 build and MIUI RC8+ only
- Resurrect Voodoo Color killed by 2.3.4 merge.
- New step for 1.5GHz on top of 1.44GHz (now 9 steps total versus 8 before)
- Forcing 400MHz max when sleeping for added battery life (default = 800). Couldn't detect any side effect.
- New tweaked Smartass governor now default (800MHz min when screen on). Please report your experience
- It seems the smartass governor is not working by default, it will revert to performance >< Please force it to get it to work -> Ok found the problem, I'll update in a min
- Now updated to V7A-2 to fix the governor bug
03/05/2011 - V7B - To use with 05012011 or newer CM7 build and MIUI RC8+ only
- Resurrect Voodoo Color killed by 2.3.4 merge - Again - fully working now
- Fixed sleep of death issue when unplugged
- Switched to LZO compression for better overall speed and reduced boot time
- Tweaked smartass governor more for - hopefully - better battery life and a bit more responsivity
- New voltage and frequency table rewrite as a bonus with now 11 frequencies total
- Stability fixes on 1.5GHz step -> please test and report
- Reverted FPS uncap - at least for now - for two main reasons : more stability on high GPU freqs (1.4GHz and more), and to prevent FPS limit at max/2 (33 when unlocked to 66), limiting overall performances in heavy scenes. I think there's a lack of buffering somewhere.. It will give higher scores on some benchmarks, and lower on others. A better battery life can indeed be expected too.
- Upstream sync
05/05/2011 - V7C - To use with 05032011 or newer CM7 build and MIUI RC8+ only
- Upstream sync (better battery life, reboot recovery, etc.)
- A general stability fix missing from V7 branch added back
- Tiny tweaks on the voltage table
- Big bugfix on the V7 branch (redone from scratch, cleaner)
- Switched to 2011.03 toolchain
- Added some optimization flags, "-mfloat-abi=hard" being one of them (up to 40% performance gains in specific cases)
- Small improvements here and thereV6
WIP
22/04/2011 - V6pre - preview/work in progress of upcoming V6A update *test* :
- Reverted PMEM settings to new CM7 default (317MB - same as V5A)
- Reverted some stability fixes that weren't that stable on some devices, or even prevented some to boot
- New voltage table for a more linear increase, improving stability at default settings
- Switched to Deadline scheduler by default as it appears more stable
- Back to 2010.09 toolchain for speed and efficiency
- Synchronized with last update from SGS CM7 team
Better to use CM7 04212011 update with this kernel and newer.
22/04/2011 - V6pre - update 1 :
- Battery polling bumped to 15 sec (was 1 before), it should help battery to an extent (thanks to Zach for the idea)
- Some internal voltage tweaking to hopefully be more UV friendly

- Corrected Led Notifications - Now it should work properly again !
- Various bugfixes and typo corrections
- Toolchain change once again
- Added new Interactive governor with aggressive settings for even more speed. You need to change it by app (pimp my cpu/cyanogen settings), it's still on conservative by default.
(thanks Zach for your suggestion)
25/04/2011 - V6pre - update 4
- Cleanups on Led notifications to resolve a bug (buttons stopped working randomly for some users)
- More typo corrections
- Voodoo Sound V8
- Various bugfixes on CPU load and schedulers
- CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE disabled for speed
- Lower latency on GPU states switch for stabler performances
- Added a stability fix for voltage change latency when frequency is changing. It should give more stability with high undervolt or big voltage differences between two steps - Please test and report ! (Thanks Zach for pointing that to me)
- Two versions for testing purposes : V6pre-u4 is compiled using GCC 4.5.1 toolchain, and V6pre-u4(alt) is compiled using GCC 4.4.3 one. If you get instabilities on the first one, try the other and vice versa. Please report your findings on that because it was the first stability differences source between my kernel revisions. For information, V6pre-u2 was compiled with 4.4.3, and u3 with 4.5.1.
27/04/2011 - V6pre - update 5 >> 6
- Name changed from "TkGlitch" to "Glitch"
- Cleanups on buttons (Kangsterizer)
- Lower latency on GPU states switch for stabler performances in 3D and/or at high GPU frequency - corrected, thanks to Kangsterizer
- Added a stability fix when frequency changes for cpufreq governors
- Tweaked Interactive and Conservative governors for testing
- New Frequency table : 1.5GHz is now the max selectable frequency, and 800MHz and 400MHz steps are now replaced by a unique 600MHz one.

- Now bumped to update 6 to fix an issue with the conservative governor.
27/04/2011 - V6pre - update 7
- New Frequency table : 1.44GHz removed, 800 and 400MHz steps are back.
- Battery polling bumped from 15 to 30 seconds
- GPU power latency bumped from 10 to 60 ms
28/04/2011 - V6A - To use with 04282011 or newer CM7 build only
- New sensors drivers added
- Normalized 1.5GHz bus speed (GPU will now run @ 250MHz versus 247MHz before. It can affect your stability !)
- Int voltage lowered for 1.5GHz step because it did have a bad effect on lower frequencies stability
- GPU power latency back to default - but fixed (100ms)
29/04/2011 - V6B - To use with 04282011 or newer CM7 build only
- New initramfs source to fix compass and update CWM recovery
- 1.5GHz replaced by 1.48GHz for stability
- New voltage table as requested by many users (+25mv on 1200 to 1400MHz steps)
- New interactive governor for better scaling and battery life
- New tweaked smartass governor for testing (pretty bad on CPU benchmarks for some reason, please test how it feels in real world use)

V5
19/04/2011 - V5A - Initial release
21/04/2011 - V5B :
- GPU overclock on 1.3 GHz added (217MHz / +8.5% from default)
- New PMEM settings for more available RAM compared to V5A (now 328MB)
- Stability fixes for all frequencies, needing globally less volts. Results may vary depending on the device
- Switched to Conservative governor by default (still switchable by app). It can feel less responsive coming from idle but more battery saving, and plays better with high frequencies.
- New voltage table. Default settings should be stabler for most devices.
- Switched to 4.4.3 toolchain for added stability on some sensitive devices
Captivate and Vibrant support will come later. It will need more time than expected.
21/04/2011 - V5C : Small update to fix a bootloop issue on some devices.
F.A.Q.
Because I got tired of answering these same things 100's of times.
1) Where can I find the latest beta?
They are always in the OP. They are also in my signature, and the root of the FTP.
2) Where is the root of the FTP you ask?
Good question! It’s in the OP as well.
3) How do I install this? / I'm having problems installing
Reboot into recovery
Install zip from SDcard
Choose zip from SDcard
Navigate to the zip you downloaded.
4)What is Leakage (LL,ML,HL) and what one should i use?
Easy explanation: start with HL. If it allows you to OC how much you want, stay there. If not, move down until you get what you want.
For people who want more: Well, we made different leakages because koflem couldn’t OC, and he felt left out, so he started compiling on his own, which gave Tk-Glitch the idea to make three different versions. They have to do with the differences in different phones. Take for example different phones run better with different OC/UV. The leakages are the same way. They adjust the int voltages, which is something not configureable (yet) in userspace, so we have to configure them that way when we build. That way both the voltages that you are used to (the ones controllable via voltage control) are tailored to your device, as is the int voltages (the ones only we can do). Most people have no idea, but there are dozens of variables that we play with to make so that all of you can OC and UV as much as possible with as much stability as possible. Some aren't device specific, some are. We are trying to make the best experience possible for a wide range in chip quality, therefore we make different leakages, as well as making the kernel configurable via voltage control. From a stability/performance standpoint, and by extension standpoint, there is only one leakage right for your device. Different leakages aren't better in some ways for you and worse in others, there is only one good one for your device. Sorry if that didn't make sense, I tried to make it as informative as possible without it being overwhelming.
5) Does this work with Gingerbread bootloaders?
Yes
6) What ROM does this kernel work on?
For sure: CM7. Other CM7 based ROM’s may work, but I can’t offer you much support. If it works on CM7, that’s my goal. This WILL NOT work on Samsung based ROM’s, and I won’t port it. If you still don’t know what ROM this will work on, then you should read a lot more.
7) How do I enable BLN?
Download either BLN here: https://market.android.com/details?id=neldar.bln.control.free&feature=search_result Or Blinky here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.kin.blinky&feature=search_result
8) How do I overclock?
Xan’s Voltage Control App here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.darekxan.voltagecontrol&feature=search_result . READ THIS GUIDE FIRST: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036020 If you break something while Overclocking, I won’t provide much support. Overclocking is awesome, but very variable across devices. We try and make a stable experience for everyone, but it is not guaranteed. If it breaks, I didn’t do it. If it makes your phone fly, I did it.
9) Can I be a beta tester?
Probably not. Unless you do something to make me like you a lot (cough strictlyrude27 cough), then you can’t have betas. The reason being they are unstable usually, and I already have a big enough team that I can get the information I need.
10) Why does my screen look ugly? / How do I change the screen color?
Go grab voodoo control from the market here: https://market.android.com/details?id=org.projectvoodoo.controlapp&feature=search_result , then play with the sliders until you like what you see. If you get really stumped, here are some values that people tend to like. They are from zacharais.maladroit.
Screen RGB multipliers:
- Red: 321*
- Green: 321*
- Blue: 429*
Screen v1 gamma hack:
- use Alt. settings
- or if you prefer others - use: "Reset to 2.3.3 defaults", "Punchy settings" (punchy could lead to a great screen while locking the screen and having "screen off" animation disabled)
1)Color Profiles: Voodoo Profile V1
2) Screen v1 gamma hack :
- 50 red
- 53 green
- 44 blue
3) RGB multipliers:
Red ="2300875360"
Green ="2300875360"
Blue ="2709919680"
11) The backlights on my soft keys stay on all the time. Why is that?
Honestly, because I haven’t spent the time to “fix” it. They aren’t that bright, so people can stand it for a little while. I didn’t intentionally make it that way, it happened when we switched back to BLN instead of LED notifications. We made that switch because I like Blinky, and I get to pick until Tk-Glitch is back, or I am convinced otherwise.
12) I’m getting bootloops, why?
Well, the most common issue is that you have mismatched ROM’s and kernel’s. You need the latest ROM for your device, and the V12B3 kernel for your device. For where to find that, see above. The next is various scripts and “fixes” that you flash after/before the kernel. Reflash the nightly for your ROM, then the kernel. Let it boot. If it works and didn’t with the various other zips you may use, then don’t use those zips.
13) WHEN IS THE NEW VERSION OUT?
First Rule of Cyanogenmod... I'm allergic to ETAs so I try to stay away from them if at all possible. Causes all kinds of nasty problems they do....
14) How do I use the 90_callvolume script?
Download it here:
neh4pres wrote these instructions, if clarification is needed just ask.
There are many ways to apply this patch. But for these instructions i will be using root explorer because it has all the utilities needed.
After downloading, use root explorer to extract 90call_vol from the .zip. this will place 90call_vol in the extracted folder of your sd card. Long press and copy that file and paste it in the /etc/init.d folder. Once it pastes long press the file and open with text editor.
In call boost.. only change the final number in the line you want to adjust and keep that number between 0 and 3
INCALL_BOOST_EARPIECE=2
INCALL_BOOST_BLUETOOTH=2
INCALL_BOOST_SPEAKER=2
INCALL_BOOST_HEADPHONE=2
Mic gain only change the final number in the line you want to adjust and keep that number between 0-31
MIC_GAIN_EARPIECE=19
MIC_GAIN_SPEAKER=31
MIC_GAIN_HEADPHONE=29
MIC_GAIN_HEADPHONE_NO_MIC=18
Save changes when exiting and the editor will append the original file with a .BAK . You can use 90call_vol.bak to revert back one save. If you change multiple times and want to go to stock you can use the 90call_vol in /sdcard/extracted.
15) Is the GPU overclocked?
Yes. Can you control it? No. That code hasn't ever worked, and we don't really expect it to. The GPU is so overclocked at 1.5 Ghz that if it went any higher the memory would get corrupted and really bad things happen.

I won't be here much, but it's good to have a thread in there. It'll clean the i9000 thread a bit and will help users to find the kernel for their own device.
Thanks for the help sixstringsg
Hi guys, just wondering if anyone is having issues losing signal after flashing a different kernel with the latest release of CM7?
is the latest miui release, 1.6.3, compatible with 10b?

ok. so i just noticed that Glitch isn't running this thread. weird. i also just noticed that you need to study a little bit of what Glitch is doing in order to run this thread properly so that you don't give out false information to others about his kernels. i'm running glitch V9 right now as i'm typing this to you. and i've run another version of his kernels also. SO yes there is a miui kernel for captivate. there are several. not trying to be rude at all but you may throw someone thats newer to flashing kernels off and not allow them to enjoy these kernels Glitch is putting out. the more people who use these kernels the more feedback= better kernels.

Install steps:
- backup your apps and settings
- install GB bootloaders
- install ROM from CWM (d/l link below)
- if you are coming from GB ROM with EXT4, and end up with CWM bootloop - install ROM from CWM one more time (pull battery, three button trick)
- clear cache and dalvik-cache from CWM recovery
- reboot and enjoy.
Known issues:
- NSTools internal voltage changes, remove voltages from CWM recovery under advanced settings in case of trouble
- nonwipe update, so clear cache, data, dbdata from CWM recovery if you cannot resolve issues, another way is to cleaning application data from Settings->Manage Apps. Coming from version before 6 - wipe data.
Working OC/UV settings - don't go too low with UV to avoid bad reception on radio and GPS: 100MHz -900mV, 200- 900, 400- 1000, 800-1150, 1000-1225, 1200-1300, 1300- 1350, 1400-1425, 1500-1425. I could reach stable 1590MHz with NSTools 106% LiveOC, Quadrant2=1740 and LinPack score around 28. YMMV. NSTools are very flaky. Be careful - do not put NSTools settings as "set on boot". UV settings in NSTools never worked for me.
Battery saving settings - LiveOC 120%, MaxCPU=1000*1.2=1200MHz. No deep idle sleep, use Semaphore GPU screen state settings, no internal voltage settings, ARM voltages are same as in previous paragraph. Power saver in SlimSettings enabled. Quadrant2=1400.
Troubleshooting - remove suspicious application data, uninstall/reinstall it from Market if possible, clear cache and dalvik-cache from CWM recovery. If nothing helps - factory reset, which will clear data (user apps and settings), but not system or sdcard.

Thanks for getting it done so fast, will try it in the weekend.
YAY YOU INCLUDED THE KF1 MODEM FROM MY THREAD D.
Might wanna add as a disclaimer that there are some weird things about the modem, sometimes it can be very inconsistent, in an area where I get full signal with KG3, i get full sometimes with KF1, and other times it kinda drops to one bar or none, although call quality is amazing. Though I can't risk the stability
How did you know the noise cancellation work? Kf1 doesnt have 2g bandwidth which is good for battery life and signal, kg3 was the best modem ive tried on ics rom

Android keyboard keeps FC'S I already cleared data and cache still doing it
Android keyboard
Yea. Same here. Something is wrong with it. I'll try to replace Swype with one with Connect feature and Dragon dictate add-on.
As far as Android keyboard - it will be fixed as part of going to Docs' V5 ROM base.

DL now.
Edit: ok been using for a little now keep getting message unfortunately ROM control has stoppest, assuming this is the new fc message
Love the fact that you are using color"s" in the setting icons. Every one else is either a theme color, as in one or bland.
Been going between slim, fusion and now nostalgia, all have nice things about them will need to see which liked best out which can be adapted to have all I like
Also music player won't play any of my music, all the other ics ROM tried no issue
Will keep seeing what's what
Thanks for all the hard work

How did you get noise cancelling to work?
I thought noise cancelling was finally available on GB because SamSung released the code and I assume the driver code. Does that code work with an ICS build? Should other I897 modems work?

No that code doesn't work on ics. The modem included is from nexus s and is supporting noise cancellation. But I didn't notice any difference in calling and also the signal was inconsistent.

On noise canceling
Well. May be it isn't noise canceling. But the sound quality on call between KG3 and KF1 modem is staggering. Two examples: I was talking in the garage while the motorized door was closing with obnoxious noise and other person didn't hear it, and trying to setup my voicemail prompt left screeching and static noises with KG3. I think the best test is noisy environment and try to setup your voicemail prompt.
BTW next version is ready. Testing...
On FC problems
Since I don't have any FC's....
Format cache, dbdata and data partitions from "CWM mounts/storage", then reflash the ROM zip. See if it helps.

I have been sharing my CM7 builds for some time in the kangaroo thread. But I decided to start my own thread in which I will share the KANG/UNOFFICIAL builds I make. In principle, I will always have the most recent sources with a range of cherry-picks. These cherry-picks are the ones I like.
About Cyanogen: CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
If you run into errors, I will probably not be able to solve it!
If you know a solution, either upload it yourself to Gerrit Code Review or contact me through pm.

You read my mind (currently CM9)
I have always used Cyanogenmod 7 both on my old HD2 and now with my Galaxy S which is awesome...
Thnx for taking this project up and keeping with the nightlies. I seldom use the nightlies instead use an old kanga version and works great. I think it is 7.2.0RC0 which I think was the latest and greatest...
Nice.
I like KANG. (CM7)
thank u
I build a fresh CM7 Kang!
naming
hey kasper!
first of all, thx for continueing building your kangs!
now i have a (maybe dumb) question: your kangs til the latest have still RC1 in the name. for official cm a RC3 came out some days ago. but as you build your kangs with updated source (+cherry picks, of course), the RC1 in the name is irrelevant, is that right?
i hope you understand my question, my english is not so good...
greetz and thx again,

New CM9 build online.
Didn't build a new CM7, as the last few days there was no new source code being merged....
Thanks very much ! I am downloading it ^^
Hi kasper_h,
Thanks for your builds with cherries and taking up where nrg left off!
I saw these changes not too long ago for the Galaxy Tab to add SmartassV2 governor. Is there any way that you can compile a build with SmartassV2 added? Wasn't sure it was possible, but I love that governor, and I think that would make CM9 perfect for me
http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/16247/
http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/16247/1/drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_smartass2.c
Reading more into the commit notes, it looks like it wasn't merged because the CM team believes that SmartassV2 performs like Interactive. I've read other articles that say that Interactive stays at one frequency where as Smartass uses all frequencies and is actually pretty battery friendly. If it's not possible, no worries, I know I can always use another kernel. Thanks again!
Interesting challenge, never done something like that. Will give it a try to see whether I get it to build with SmartAssV2
But it may take a few days, now preparing a few day leave
Hey just wanted to report that HydraCore v7 does work with AOKP 4.1.2 and together its just awesome!
I'm still using AOKP 4.1.2 because I don't like the changes in 4.2.2 with the new lockscreen n that ****ty (imo) notification toggles.
AOKP 4.1.2. gives you weather + calendar entries on the lockscreen plus weather on notification bar (no other rom has that afaik).
The latest nightly build for 4.1.2 from sixstringsg even supports s-pen gestures! (like starting an app on double tap with the spen)
But unfortunatly some apps which also use the spen crash when you use the button inside the applications with gestures enabled.
(BUT you dont have to enable the gestures, theres an option to toggle them on and off inside the aokp rom control)
(im currently loading sources and on my fresh ubuntu vbox to try n fix that bug)
The combo of AOKP+Hydracore is just so great. With hydracore its even more snappy plus you have OC capability on AOKP!
Just wanted to let ya guys know, I guess this could be interesting to some.
(maybe together we can get s-pen gestures to fully work?!)
Here the link of the rom (nightly build from November 2012):
http://androtransfer.com/get.php?p=sixstringsg/n7000/aokp_n7000_unofficial_Nov-11-12.zip

For HydraCoreI have no current link available right now, but I'm sure you will find it.
Thank you
Thanks for sharing. Im looking for performance VS battery AOKP 4.1.2. Any (new) suggestion?
I shouldnt have praised the setup - now things start to get a bit ugly, had a few restarts, currently investigating =(
use hydracore Nirvana... it fixed a lot based from hydracore v7...

probably due to high OC... or undervolting...
some CPUs cant handle very high Clock speed and very low Volting...
Unfortunately the HydraCore v7 doesnt let you enable logcat, not even as a module (at least it didnt bring its own).
I tried HydraCore v7 with both the 4.0.4 and the 4.1.2 Version of AOKP now and what I found is that the System Load is constantly high (over 2.00) with hydracore. So it seems there is some kind of hog which causes this high load and which in turn causes a reboot if the load stays over the cpu count (2.00) for a while or because of some chaincrash occuring in the background maybe.
Or is this just an "error" in hydracore to report such high system load? I mean those numbers you get when you enable cpu usage overlay in dev options.
I did use hydracore on TW based roms in the past afair and didnt get any reboots, but it could be related to OC/UV yea. Thing said my Note is VoltGroup B.
I looked at nirvana, but it doesn't over OC capability and has far less tweaks than the original hydracore, so I was hoping to get this thing working. But it seems to have its problems with the AOKP framework. (the high system load?!)
