Linaro-Code will improve Android 4.0.4 ! - Galaxy 3 General

Hey guys!
In Samsung Galaxy S forum i found something veeeeeeeeeery interesting!
It's about the Linaro-Code that should speed up Android about a noticeable amount!
Just take a look at this video:
Linaro-Video from Youtube
(This is the related article: cnx-software.com)
Idk what i should think about it. If it really works, i guess it would be worth a try ?!
Here is another article, which says, that it can speed up Android 2 times!
"The Linaro team, who’s constantly working on optimizing software for the ARM
architecture, has worked on optimizing the latest version of Android as well, and
they claim up to 2x improvement in performance compared to stock Android
4.0.4, running on the same TI OMAP 4430 hardware. The improvements are
mostly CPU-related, even though they are showing a graphical object to test the
performance. They’ve managed to double the FPS for this particular test, but
they’ve also managed to increase the Sunspider performance by 30%, which is
also quite a big deal."
- quote from this article.

This is very interesting, but will this work on any 4.0 device? btw, no need to re-post the same thing (no offence)

It would be compiled in kernel 3.x

Yes, it would really be. I just posted it because I thought kernel 3.x could handle it.
Sorry for double-posting this topic.
Anyway; if our developers find more time and are able to make kernel 3.x running
(which would be awesome!) our phone would get an enourmous speed-boost.

We have used it in our CM9 port on LG P500, but there are still some issues to solve, but our Linaro-build is smooth So good luck! If a dev needs some info on how to include it in their code, look at our project-site github.com/lgics

ICS 4.0.3 Beta 1 for the SGS2

Hey guys
I'm more of a reader than a poster but anyway, I came across a guy that has created a ICS Rom with the help of some guys on here I believe ???
Anyway the ROM is there for download and sees to be pretty close to a finished artical.
I guess go have a look give it a try and if it is as described then Happy New Year to everyone

Ok, thx
So, what the point of this thread?
well I guess theres some conflict here but as long as the Rom works and everyone that was involved gets a mention I'm happy. Surley thats the main thing right give everyone what they want, anyway thats enough from me, happy new year to you guys its there if you want it
Does the ROM work fine?
Any nitz and RIL issues?
All this slating of airbus360. However if anyone bothers to try his rom, it is much better. I've been using cm9 since the first alpha up to the most recent release. It was good, but not a patch on this. Airbus's rom is much smoother, especially when flicking between home screens. Its also a lot faster. So although he may have used Teamhacksung code, he's obviously incorporated a few improvements of his own. Before anyone criticises, they should install it. It's a step up from the current cm9 builds.

This is exactly the same as CM9, except it's not using CM9 launcher and quick toggles in status bar.
So, is this rom fully working? What remains to be fixed?
This is not a development thread, there is no development going on. So, moving this to general.

Noon Question. How to install this so called beta version. Help pls.....
Been using this since last night.
Basically, looks the same as CM9 minus a few modifications, yet the ROM is a lot smoother then CM9.
Battery for me is great, roughly 1% loss an hour. Removed all uneeded apps via Titanium Backup.
Ive noticed one slight problem with the incoming call screen, icons misplaced. BUT, Still can be used.
I've had No FC's either.
I do really reccomend this ROM

Lidroid ICS Rom 4.0.3

Hello,
Just wanted to say my impression on Lidroid ICS ROM. I have been using almost all LPB based Roms lately. The only one that stayed longer was MODGalaxy, which is a clean stock Samsung LPB Rom.
Having read about Lidroid dev here and his mods, I read that he issues his Rom based on ICS too in his forum. So I gave it a try. Apart of some apps in Chinese language, a nice keyboard but unfortunately for Chinese language, I am really impressed for its smoothness. The rom has 14 icon mod, percentage battery, Lockapp, Root Explorer and other goodness by default.
I have removed some of the local apps with Root Explorer and inserted an ICS keyboard. Now everything runs good for me.
I am trying today and just wanted to say to brave hearts to give it a try too. You will be impressed I think or hope...

Come on guys. I just wanted to let you know about a Rom that is not available in this forum. This post was not about my impressions but mostly about knowing and trying a Rom outside of XDA.
Or maybe I could say my last impressions about this thread before it gets closed?

Why Atrix developers doesn't seem like to dev directly from ICS AOSP?

Usually, (for other devices of course), ICS roms that are developed from AOSP tend to be more stable, less buggy and better than CM9 roms, so im kind of curious why Atrix developers have decided to work on CM9, even thought its far from complete?
Just a question.

I'm not 100% but I think the developers need something from the moto/nvidia which is why the rom was ported from the photon and not just built From the ground up .

NVidia won't release the drivers and sources required to accomplish this, so a 1/2 ass port is all that can be done at the moment. This has nothing to do with the devs. They are giving us the best they can with what they have right now.

Not saying that they arent working hard, just asking why they choosing CM9 instead of AOSP 4.0, just a simple question. And ponting out that builds based on AOSP seems to be more solid and stable than builds based on CM9, mostly because CM9 itself its still not from complete

Also, IIRC, they're borrowing heavily from CM7 for our current CM9 builds. I believe we'll see more options when we finally get official source and drivers in Q3.

Please read the above before commenting again! If you had read it the first time you would not have posted what you did below!.............Or maybe you still would have, who knows!!! You can program all you want for an AOSP ROM, but without device specific drivers you can never optimize for any one device. Simple as this, for any ICS on the Atrix, whether AOSP, CM9, MIUI, or whatever, you still need device drivers. Try running your NVidia graphics card in your computer without a driver................yeah, see what I mean (but then again you might like 640 x 480!)!

Woops, i forgot to tell that i was refering to other devices AOSP 4.0 ROMS, but if you are as inteligent as you seems to be, you should have known that because the Atrix actually doesn't have any rom coded from AOPS 4.0, at least on this forum.
The roms i was refering to was ICS Passion and ICS Euforia, both made by the same developer, Neobuddy, made for the Samsung Vibrant, a 1ghz phone, with 512mb for ram, without official drivrrs released, and the rom is more stable than the current Atrix ICS builds (no offend, i recongnize the guys are doing a great job making it happen), and almost as smooth as a the builds, and that phone is in a similar condition driver-related, that its, without any drivers being released. Thats why my doubt came, why the developers chiosed CM9 as a base, even thought it isnt really stable yet, and not completed, and why builds made from AOSP 4.0 tend to be more stable?

And that's why I asked you to link them. You are comparing AOSP ROM's on other devices to CM9 on other devices. Because you see something run more smoothly on one device, does not directly mean it will run smoothly on another device. In any event, your question was answered in as far as there are drivers and source that the devs do not have in order to make any ICS based ROM's work optimally on the Atrix. If I had to hazard a guess as to why the devs are using CM9 as a base, it would be because the groundwork has been laid for them. The Atrix doesn't have an army of devs, so we get a smaller mix of options with ROM's.

Considering the issues with emmc and stability, I would say that Sammy is not even close to providing a correct ICS rom.
Let them just release the drivers, after all here at XDA we have all the good devs to cook us a good set of kernels for TW or AOSP roms, don't we?
That is just wishful thinking of course;-)
Sent from the great Note
Please make one for ICS.
There's a missing hole in my device, it cries out for SmartAssv2 governor on an optimized kernel. (Frequency is 400Mhz under/1.4GHz over, we don't have the voltage option yet, sigh)
I use this daily (the ones that say current, the saved ones are the original voltages) with abyss kernel 100% stable and I usually set the min speed to 400MHz and Max to 1400MHz or 1700MHz depending on my needs.
I can lower all voltages by 0.025v but then I'll get a couple crashes a week so i prefer to keep the voltages just one step higher.

I agree. We really need some good ICS metals. Apart from the CM9 kernel and DAFUQ, I do not see anything else here.
And after Entropy's warning not to flash leaked kernels, I am beginning to wonder if there is some other good kernel for ICS ROMs.
We would be grateful if make this an ICS kernel. We can live with one less good GB kernel /methinks

Does chinese leaks we must forget. Nothing wrong with thise kernels if you have a chinese Note. Look at sgs2 forum. Already samsung released there the sources and there are 5 ore more custom kernels. So samsung is doing a great job for them releasing so soon sources. We have to be patient and not start making cm9 with sources from sgs2. So stupid.

True but SGS2 sales are at least four times more than that if the note. The note is like a flagship device but its not getting the best treatment yet. We can't expect the sources to be out before the official ICS release.
I am just happy we even have official CM9 support. The problem though, is because DAFUQ supports only TW ROMs :-| and we have no good kernels (except leak ones) for the AOSP/AOKP ROMs.
So much good ROM development here for AOSP. Yet, no real safe kernels for em yet. Pity!
He's back! Another robertberma anti-spirit comment.
Excuse me for the intro, but most of the work here at XDA started with hacking and making open sourced stuff out of closed source material.
Indeed we already have a few good GB kernels, and an additional developer on ICS would be greatly appreciated. ICS is coming soon, and considering the time spent on tuning a kernel, I think that it would be more productive to start working on an ICS kernel than on GB.
However if this GB kernel is a first step to get knowledge of the Note specifics and followed by an ICS one, it's all good.
Sent from the great Note
@fenomeno83
Forgive me if this question is really nooby.
Is it possible for a custom ICS kernel to support both TW and AOSP? Are their frameworks too different?
Most (or maybe all) of the GB kernels I see here are for GB. They may be themed but I still see the TW framework everywhere.
If possible, wouldnt it be nice to make a kernel that supports both?

Hahaha I think it will not help developing ics kernel by develop a gb kernel. I just say we have to be patient and wait for sourses to continue develop a ics kernel that is save. We have great devs for aosp and cm9 roms but there hands are tied behind there backs without sourses. Now they use stupid chinese **** thats not save. We getting of topic here.
Make this gb kernel fast and i hope he continue his work when ics comes out. And make a speedy ics kernel for sammy, aosp and cm9 roms. ONE KERNEL FOR ALL ROMS.

Excuse me for the intro, but most of the work here at XDA started with hacking and making open sourced stuff out of closed source material.
Indeed we already have a few good GB kernels, and an additional developer on ICS would be greatly appreciated. ICS is coming soon, and considering the time spent on tuning a kernel, I think that it would be more productive to start working on an ICS kernel than on GB.
However if this GB kernel is a first step to get knowledge of the Note specifics and followed by an ICS one, it's all good.

I do not see any anti- spiritism in his comment. He was saying the obvious fact

Where is the Thread of Slim ICS v4.2?

hi
was the development for the slim ics port stopped? because the thread just vanished and i can't find it again. Am i too stupid or did somebody really delete it?
the thread about the sd version is still there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1763112
the thread was here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1759815
cu
I haven't been following it lately, but I saw a dispute whether the developer should have made a slim version of an already available ROM or not. So it is likely that the original ROM developer asked to cease the slim port and sought a thread closure.

if the thread would have been simply closed like others i would agree, but this thread vanished completely. the dispute was on the first two pages. how can a rom-cooker demand that his android rom doesn't get ported? credits where given where they where due and apart of that aosp is oss.

Fully agree wirh you.
What was wrong with porting rom and giving credits to original Dev?
For me it was the fastest, smallest ics rom for hd2.

Post deleted. But i have links. Long live Google Cache
From slim ics site:
"Supported Devices here, no extra devices for now ( and NO PORTS of Slim ICS)"
"http://source.android.com New versions will also be announced through this site."
"Fully built from AOSP sources with some cherry picks from CM and AOKP team, Easy to customize features (thanks to AOKP team)"
Atm trying to be calm but... Lets just say it piss me off this kind of thing.
This guy need to look at Miui team, they have right set of mind.

Hope not!
It would be nice if a moderator (or someone that knows and is objective about it) can tell us what happened. If it ended up in a heated argument I wouldn't want someone telling us only his half of the story - but I really would like to know.

Same here. Btw dev of original Slim ics rom seems had allergy reaction on porting his rom. As i allready posted. What i dont get it, how in open source community is it possible? Isn't whole point to be open, share with ofc giving credits to ppl which contributed?

If it was pulled by a moderator upon request personally I think it's within reason. The thread wasn't stated as being Unofficial, which it should have been, and with a system partition of 130MB it can hardly even be called a slim OS (other full fat ROMs are 150); nevermind comparable to SlimICS which are half that size (54 - 70). And besides the last post I seen on the thread was from the OP who said he wasn't happy with the build and wanted to change the ROM he was porting from, and it was only an alpha.
On a similar note, if a small ICS rom is to come along, I personally thing it would be benificial if we could utilise squashfs. This would require kernel support, the toggles are there to turn on squashfs support in dorimanx, but it may require a module from somewhere, I'll PM dori tomorrow concerning this unless someone here know if squash can/can't be used with our bootloaders / device. Only problem I can for see is in module compatibility, and if it works should allow for smaller versions of our current ROMs.
Your position is legit but non of the slim ics roms include gapps and trebucht as launcher. It was comparable to other full roms with about 50-100mb less memory. And for me it's totally legit to port a ROM from one to an other device if you give credit and state which Tom was ported. Would be different if there was some own coding for tools and drivers was done. Don't distribute my tools without my permission is different than don't share something i picked up somewhere else and used it for my own work. That's not how the gold licence works.

Most of ics roms are from 150 to 220m(miui).
This rom without gapps was around 85mb.
I have atm slim ics with trimmed gapps and some media files that fit in less then 120mb, if i compare to other ics rom which i used as trimmet down, they were from 140 to 190mb imho it was really Slim version of rom
Edit: Maybe it was beta version but worked without problems and it was the fastest ics i tried and i tried them alot

Fair point, the last zip I downloaded had a system folder of 130MB thats where I got my sizes from,have had a play with squashfs and have shrunk this down from 130 to 92MB. Will try tomorrow to get a kernel to compile properly and see if squash works here. Haven't tried slim myself, currently running PA and can't see how it can be faster. Have you had any issues when trying to make a call /pressing the call button?

If i don't consider common issues which have most of ics hd2, like sometimes funky memory management which on heavy duty can produce little problems, there aren't any un ordinary problem.
Calls working very snappy.
In fact whole rom is fast, responsive, low battery consumption, apps which i tested working correctly even Ted app.

I tried both, as well as some other ICS rom and believe me, it's faster than any other 4.0.4 around here. In fact I'm using it as my daily and I find it excellent, such a shame the thread has been deleted.
Hi ppl, sorry for the silence on this. Apparently there was a problem with permissions for Zorua's thread, I asked the moderators advice on the future of my thread, and it was decided to close my thread also. I have no problem with this decision.
Sorry for any inconvenience to anybody caused by this episode.
It is a great shame though, it was a really nice build.
