Looking forward to another nice kernel on the Captivate! Thanks!
Yes been waiting for this
Hardcore - since you're one of the few still using universal lagfix, I have to ask if you've messed around with Steam at all? I have it booting perfectly on JPY, some issues with filesystem conversions, nothing major. Seems to work perfect on 2.2 ROMs so far.
Sweet!!
btw, its SGH-I897
Okay, its up. HZ=500 version first for starters.
hmmmm... i'll give this a spin tonight
Glad to see it come together hardcore! ... big thanks!...testing now
EDIT
Im adding my Quick FAQ to the first page so everyone can see it....
(Some of this is taken from Hardcores FAQ...READ IT!)
[Q] What do all the tweaks in CWM mean? And which tweaks should I use?
[A] The speed tweaks in CWM is taking from Hardcores Startup Speed Tweaks here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=813309. You should use the first 4 tweaks, as the optional tweaks are only support for TUN and CIFS, if you dont know what they do then you do not need them.
[Q] After I flashed this kernel my screen does not rotate correctly..
[A] You have flashed the wrong version, there are 2 versions of this kernel, one for the Captivate and one for the i9000, the correct one will say i897 in the file name, make sure its there
[Q] After flashing this kernel, I have static, crackling..etc using bluetooth or during phone calls
[A] Chances are your using a Captivate modem, this is an i9000 kernel tweaked to work on the Captivate, so you need to use an i9000 modem, theres quite a few to choose from (JK3, JK4, JL2, JL3..etc) Theres a link in my sig, under the modem I use, where you can download
[Q] Im using JPY or another i9000 rom, do I need to flash the Captivate version or the i9000 version?
[A] You need to flash the Captivate version. This kernel is an i9000 kernel but the Captivate version is reoriented so it works correctly on the Captivate, the i9000 version is for the actual i9000
[Q] Do I need to disable lagfix coming from a previous version? (ie. K12K to K12L)
[A] No, you do not need to disable lagfix when switching to a newer version
[Q] I am currently using a Lagfix. Do I need to remove the lagfix before changing kernels?
[A] If you are using a loop lagfix like RyanZA's One Click Lagfix (OCLF), you *must* un-lagfix first. But if you are upgrading from another Universal Lagfix Kernel or Voodoo, you don't need to remove the lagfix. However, it is always safest to remove the lagfix before changing kernels.
[Q] Which lagfix do you recommend?
[A] I recommend EXT4 All lagfix, with the SAFER ext4 mount option. Other lagfixes have a high risk of data loss if the phone crashes or is suddenly powered off or rebooted
[Q] Whats the difference in the "warm" and "cold" versions?
[A] If you screen is to yellow, flash the cold version, it makes it more blue to even it out. If your screen is to blue, flash the warm version, it makes it more yellow to even it out.
[Q] Whats the difference between the 250HZ version and the 500HZ version?
[A] HZ is an internal timer value used by the Android/Linux kernel. It affects the timer granularity of some kernel functions. The higher the HZ, the smoother the User Interface should be, up to a certain point - too high a HZ value will make CPU-bound tasks slower. However, the differences are very minor.
[Q] When I try to go into recovery I now have 3e and says ..
Code:
[COLOR="Red"]Install from package
Finding update package
Opening update package
Verifying update package
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Applying Multi-CSC
Installing Multi-CSC
Installation aborted[/COLOR]
[A] Follow my guide here, takes about 2sec and your good to go.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909213
Thats all that I can think of right now, if theres anything else that I forgot let me know and ill post it...
Right when I thought I was set to flash a new kernel (Nandroid backup, Titanium backup, SMS backup, everything on SD ready to flash), you throw this at me... What to do what to do... >.<
What is the difference between this and SetiroNs kernel? No OC/UV so maybe just stability?
Ill give it a shot, allthough I'm not sure what makes this better than any other kernels?

Thanks for clearing that up.
Edit: installed and testing.
Is there a kernel out for it yet?
No, and there will not be, until Froyo is official.
Or unless someone leaks the kernel source to wikileaks!
This reminds me... I've been wondering about JT's boot animation kernel. Did he just patch the leaked DL30 kernel somehow? His ASOP froyo kernel still has some things not implemented, so I don't think it's based off of that. Ah, this little side note has become too long and is now off topic.
Anyway, isn't it a goal of BLN to get all of their implementation out of the kernel so that any kernel can be used? I think supercurio is trying to do that with the Voodoo sound driver too, so that it won't need to be added to the kernel.
I fully support this, especially if we start seeing more fascinate froyo (or higher) leaks.
There won't be a working bln kernel until we have source to build from. Boot animation support is one of the few things that can be changed about the kernel we have.
I see. Thanks!

I was just curious: how is your experience with the various hacked kernels available like, for instance :CF-Root 3.0] JP*,JS*,JQ3,JV1/K - su+bb+2e/CWM - rfs+ext4 by Chainfire
Hacked Lagfix/Ext4 Samsung Galaxy S Gingerbread - JVB by supercurio
[KERNEL][GPL][SECURITY] FuguMod 3.0 (gingerbread JVB) voodoosndv7 by nikademus
DamianGTO Ultimate Ginger Kernel by DamianGto
SpeedMod Gingerbread by Hardcore
Talon Kernel by ytt3r / existz
Do you know another one?
Tested a couple of them, pretty much satisfied with the responsiveness and battery performance, no bugs or issues, BUT UNLIKE many hacked/compiled kernel users I am always on RFS and have all tweaks disabled....(edit: not anymore, testing some tweaks right now)
In the begining running Gingerbread the sgs was having some weird battery performances, but after removing a bunch of bloatware and freezing another bunch (using Titanium app), like "software update" for instance , battery performance is stable.
Some feedback about this and the other kernels would be nice, specially from users like me, that wont do the "file convertion thing" (always on RFS).

Well first i try Supercurio, Gingerbread-GT-I9000-stock-from-sources-kernel+hackskernel, and work so well. Then i try Supercurio again Gingerbread-GT-I9000-dev-kernel+hacks, and it´s a complete kernel is really a good Kernel, estable, and work so fine, and not draw the battery.
Actually i have Darkys v10.0RC5b2 rom and try DamianGTO_Ginger_Beta_6__340HZ, no good it´s unstable and with the ram don´t work good.
Now I have Ficeto Kernel, Dark Core 2.0 and really work so good with the ram and with batery, it´s very stable and it´s a complete Kernel whit lagfix and ext4.
Now I want try Dark Core 2.1 and probably the last Hardcore´s Kernel, speedmod-kernel-k15c-test5-o2-09q3-500hz, perhaps now without reboot problem.
Hmmm....I dont think your probs are kernel related but more MOD ROM related....
You missed the Hardcore's SpeedMod kernel!
From the beginning JVK and now JVB both deodexed by Ramad with CFRoot is a winning team for me.No ext-4 stuffs,or as a test...killing time...,and just happy like that.Flashing mods and themes,enjoying his CWM application,can't thank enough Chainfire for accompanying us in our wish to use this 2.3 «release».
Only one sudden battery drain as far for me and it was a google process.Maybe related to maps,read that somewhere...
MY SGS New XWJVB Problems...
1. my screen going off when im still working...or playing game...or calling with loudspeaker (check this) (when not touch)
2. always on my touch buttons lights (menu= back keys)
3. didn't play some games (restart phone and stucking) but can play that games on my older froyo firmware...
I'm using XWJVB (old i use XXJVK) with CWM3 EXT4 File Sys...... please....tell me this gingerbread releases are still beta or final releases?
I'm using CF-Root 3.1 and it works but haven't that much to compare with because I'm new in this stuff and haven't tested any other kernel.
I'm using Simple Honey 3.1 (JVB) right now with CF-Root 3.1 + EXT4 converted and wonder if I'm able to change kernel without wipe the phone? If I don't need to wipe then I may study the difference between those kernels
Great puting all up to date kernels in one list tho, that makes it easier for me and others who are curious about them.

I haven't had any problems on all the kernels.
It is just a matter of taste i think.
Some have other features (focus areas) then others, but in general they are all stable. Even the released developers version of supercurio.
So it seems that they all know what they are doing.
Personally i am using now the damiangto kernel for the more memory, just because i have SPD Shell 3D running and it consumes at lot of memory.
Here's my very, very executive executive summary:
- I rooted using CF-root 3.1 (not 3.0, filename was "CF-Root-XW_XEE_JVB-v3.1-CWM3RFS.tar").
I used this only to gain root and to flash CWM3-dependent patches, so I didn't get to fool much around with it. But from my light usage, I definitely didn't notice any problems.
- I've been running pretty much all JVK/JVB-revisions of supercurio's kernel so far (for the ext4 lagfix) and I can't really complain about anything. The added audio-drivers are definitely a bonus. Can't live without them now. I haven't had any issues with performance nor stability.
- Fugumod.
I'm absolutely alien to this kernel/mod and really have no experience with it. Not tried it once. That said, people has said earlier in the JVA/JVB/JVK-thread that when they rooted using Fugumod, they had issues connecting their phones to Kies afterwards. And they said a reflash of stock firmware and then using CF-Root instead solved their problems.
Unless you have some very specific reasons to go this route, it seems this is the only one with consistently confirmed problems so far and might be worth avoiding. Maybe the problems have been identified and fixed though. Not absolutely sure here.
- DamianGTO.
Absolutely alien to this one as well, but haven't seen any posts about specific issues either.
Hmmm havn't tried darkcoreGB yet...

Hmmm I think I can use a big memory ...so, no issues with Damian's kernel?
And since you didnt have any problems with all the kernels, let me guess:
You are always on RFS and you dont use any mod rom right?

EDIT: Just noticed: Damian's XDA account is currently disabled? And somebody else edited his first post?
What's going on?
....
I was on Darky RC3 with DarkCore 2 and wasa super smooth and fast.
Then I decided to try MIUI RC6 ... run it from Friday to Sunday when I gave up:
1. camera not working
2. touch keys are iffy, sometimes they work, other times they don't
3. My 3G network kept dripping all the time
4. try to flash differnet modem broke IMEI and had to reinstall the whole ROM
5. when alarm sounds, i could not stop it unless i lock and unlock the screen
6. there is no support, for every issue I had the answer was: it's in the FAQ
So I am back on Darky 10RC5.3 and much more happier; faster, smoother, camer works, 3G is fine, i can flash any modem I want and above all the support team is fantastic.
Battery life
What about battery life? I test speedmod for 3 days and I find less battery autonomy that 2.2.1.
For a medium usage after a day it's over!!!!
Does anyone have this trouble???
Yeah Damian is no longer at xda. He is still developing tho at his own forum. Using his beta7 with no issues do far except a hot reboot after I wiped cache
Edit you can my dropbox link to gto7 to your first post if you like

INTRODUCTION
This kernel is a developmental fork of the CM7/AOSP and Sense kernel tree built by Imoseyon (leankernel). With his permission, I have started working on an alternative kernel that offers some extra functionality.
The goal of this project is to add things to the kernel that aren't, well, necessarily lean. As development progresses, I intend to keep to the spirit of Imoseyon's work (by being careful not to make this too fat), and any major fixes or changes to code that occurs in his source tree will be ported to this kernel.
ALREADY COOKED IN BY IMOSEYON
Since most of you already know of Imoseyon's work (if you don't, see the link to his thread above), and what his kernel is about, I won't go over all the minutiae from his kernel's development, but I will highlight:
Linux Kernel v2.6.35.13 with back-ported code nearly identical to 2.6.39.
speedtweak.sh (on-the-fly frequency/voltage modification).
interactiveX, ondemandX, and smartass governors that are highly tweaked.
ramdisk enhancements (file system speed-up, init.d)

awesome! nerozehl, wanna add in-call reporting support? That way I don't have to build SP anymore and I can just link it here from my thread.
don't bother using it...wifi does not work at all. It attempts to connect then disconnects. Just went back to the stock slayher kernal instead.

I dont think you should really be telling people what to try. unless it breaks it permanently, then let people flash whatever they want. he never stated it fixes everything in CM7 or that it was the god of all kernels. just something new. I can see posting a warning telling people that it doesnt work, but not just telling em to not even bother using it.
just my 2 cents though.

Works for me? Actually it seems pretty good

I have $20 that says you flashed it with ROM Manager. Lol.

Ok! I have 1.1.3 coming out this evening (thanks to my friends who have been test dummies!). Will support call recording and have the GPU patches and tweaks from Imoseyon and some EXT4 tweaks courtesy of yours truly. Stay tuned
Just great now I to threads to keep an eye on, JK. Thanks though I've always sworn by Imoseyon's kernels and I'm really looking forward to your 1.1.3 release.
1.1.3 Released! Enjoy.

This kernel is not a Sense kernel (coming soon!)

Is the Sense kernel going to be Froyo or GB? (BTW, very happy that you have a featureful version of LeanKernel - great idea to free Imo up some on the lower-level stuff!)

Most likely GB, because the Froyo kernel playing field is pretty well saturated with great kernels.
WPA2 does not work with wifi, thats what the "wifi is broken trollololololol" guy ment
tho i wish SOMEONE could fix this, i have yet to find a kernel that doesn't have some wpa2 issues. *hint hint, please?*

How do you want to send me the 20? I hate rom manager. Of course everything performs differently for different people, but for me it was a total failure compared to other kernels.

Wao is fantastic:laugh:
WTF!?!?!

How much stuff did you delete? Because the most I've gotten while it still being a working phone with gapps and everything is 310mb.
its not the rom its the kernel

So is this a new kernel that is in "testing" and is not released yet? Because doing a search only brought up DiXperia ROM, so guessing DikeJ is working on a kernel, perhaps?
If this kernel is available can you be kind enough to post a link for it?
Edit - scratch that, the only thing I find is an X10 kernel... so going to venture DikeJ is working on porting it to our Xperia PLAY.. as I know he does work on teh X10 as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2345327
This says its a JB kernel, but is this a GB kernel as well?
I'm working on this kernel for DikeJ and his set of dixperia ROMs and I don't have any plans to upload it till DikeJ ask me to
edit: there will be a kernel for each android ROM DikeJ Makes this kernel is for dixperia perennial
Will the kernel work on r800x too?

Possibly since its based on Lupus Kernel I should be able to work something out
That's awesome but when it's ready and dike j says you can upload do you think you can make two versions work one of them having als disabled. My phone als is broken so unless Als is disabled at kernel level it won't work. Sorry if it's too much to ask but if you can do that I'll be very grateful

Could you be able to do this with ICS/JB kernels too?

yeah I will you won't get 330 mb free ram though
Hail the King @extremetempz and @DiKeJ who are gonna build awesome Kernel + ROM for the R800x
But if you give the system, kernel etc. 420mbs of ram, there's only about 90mbs for the gpu/3d rendering(?) left. Wouldn't that cause lag in games?

The 90mb RAM is for the Kernel, not for GPU/3D Rendering - That is done using system RAM.
There will be 4 main Kernels from DXEngine:
-2 for X10 (GB and JB)
-2 for Play (GB and ICS/JB)
But it's not over, cause each main project will have other version with other destination - for example with some features disabled, but better in performance etc. etc. Justin (@extremetempz) is main Kernel Developer for my ROM projects so all credits goes to him - I focused on ROMs to make it best stable and settled with Kernels - trust me, it should do the job .

games should actually run smoother because I've doubled the vram 4mb vs 8m
Edit: if anyone can extract lupus v12 ramdisk because it keeps Chucking errors at me please pm me asap as I need to extract to put the WiFi modules in and change a few things
well i have extracted it its using another format for ramdisk(bot the normal gzip)
i dont have the link i used to know how to extract but if you search a bit you will find it
(i dont have the extracted ramdisk because i have deleted my compiler machine from virtualbox)

Awesome. Hey DikeJ I hope you and extremetempz dont me offering to beta test this kernel for you. I am on GB currently debloated stock on Lupus Kernel v12. Would love to test out this kernel if you wanted to have someone test it out. Either way I am excited to see this new kernel whether I beta test it or not.
Thank you both of you for your hard work and efforts to keep our little device humming along.
