Re: [KERNEL][GB] GingerKernel v08 (OC) DOUBLE-TAPPING BUG FIXED!!

Thank you drew for your hard work. Im running version 8 with your mom rom, and it's all functioning smooth as silk. Battery life for me has been great so far, but im not exactly using my phone all day every day. Appreciate your efforts!

Hey Drew, Did you ever get a chance to look into the quicker battery drain in your latest release? I am stoked to have the ability to charge in my car again, but I'm down almost 15% within a few hours off the charger and minimal use. I put my charger specs up a few posts back.
Thanks for your hard work and looking forward to this new ROM I saw you posting about!

I'm using this kernel on a Optimus V running CM7, and my phone seems to be orders of magnitude more responsive. There's some minor issues, but I can't expect help, using a unsupported setup. Thanks drew!

Re: [KERNEL][GB] GingerKernel v08 (OC) DOUBLE-TAPPING BUG FIXED!!

I've noticed an extremely slow charge or actual loss of battery in the case I am charging and using apps at the same time when I'm plugged in at work. I keep my factory charger at home so once I'm there it seems to work fine, but the one I have at work that used to keep me at 100% is now barely keeping me afloat. Love the responsiveness now though... feast or famine I guess!

Known issue. A fix is being worked on.

thank you so much for this kernel! I've gone from reborn to your mom and everything is super smooth and I can use my travel charger!

V08 is fantastic in all areas but battery life for me. But even with that, having quick responsiveness and elimination of double tapping makes it worth it.

In case it helps in formulating a fix:

• I'm losing ~10% per hour with phone idling
  Cell standby is the main user of battery at 39%, currently (and it's been this way since I started having battery issues)
  Battery drain is not a problem when in Airplane mode.
  The phone reports battery health as Good. It is ~6 months old
  I've tried eleminating apps that might be causing it and switched from gRom to Your Mom's but noting seems to improve the situation
  The trouble seems to have started after upgrading from v07 to v08 of Gingerkernel
  I intermittently am having no-charging or slow-charging via car chargers AND the oem charger

This has been reported countless times. An updated/fixed kernel is being worked on. Please be patient.

I'm not nagging. Just trying to help in a small way by reporting what I've found. Thanks for the work.

Re: [KERNEL][GB] GingerKernel v08 (OC) DOUBLE-TAPPING BUG FIXED!!

drew im not getting these issues ,like slower charges ,maybe its just hardware issues with different optimus s models,for instance i had a brand new optimus s when i got it in june ,then when zvh was first released it screwed it up and sprint gave me a refurbished model with zvd ,and i did zvh again and it seemed better with the refurbished model go figure lol

Re: [KERNEL][GB] GingerKernel v08 (OC) DOUBLE-TAPPING BUG FIXED!!

I just had to jump in and say thank you for this! I'm a noob to rooting/ROM's/etc, but was able to root, flash the YourMomRom and now your Kernel, and I absolutely swear that my Optimus is literally like 5x faster than it was just hours before I did all this (no joke - literally like 5 times faster). I had the stock Gingerbread with the issues/etc that was overloaded with apps/all the Sprint bloatware/only like 18mb free internal data at any given time/etc, now this thing is flying!

Thanks again for you and the rest of the good folks who keep everything updated for "all things Android!"

Funny thing is that I was so fed up with the Optimus lately after the gingerbread rollout that I ordered a used Evo 4g from Ebay and gave it to my wife to put under the tree for me for xmas (after verifying the ESN and the phone itself were all good). Now I'm debating if I even need the Evo come xmas... lol - I guess it'll just be "even better".

Re: [KERNEL][GB] GingerKernel v08 (OC) DOUBLE-TAPPING BUG FIXED!!

thank you. I am still using OptiRom, was really annoyed with the double tap crap - now it works great!

Re: [KERNEL][GB] GingerKernel v08 (OC) DOUBLE-TAPPING BUG FIXED!!

Good deal! Let me know what you think!

It is the man.! so MUCH better overall.

Re: [KERNEL][GB] GingerKernel v08 (OC) DOUBLE-TAPPING BUG FIXED!!

I too can vouch for this in both cases. I'm experiencing great battery life as well as no charging problems via USB or oem wall charger. And I dropped my phone on the pool this summer, got a refurbished one and it is leaps and bounds faster and less buggy. Even while on OTA zvh update before rooting or recovery/Rom was installed.

Re: [KERNEL][GB] GingerKernel v08 (OC) DOUBLE-TAPPING BUG FIXED!!

I am kind of lost, I have the MOM ROM on my phone right now and it works mostly has its quirks.

but is this GingerKernel thingy a ROM by its self being only 4megs is what me.

or is it a patch the primary reason I ask is I am having tethering issues with my current setup and I need to know what I can do to fix it

YOUR MOM - ROM (the full 93MB file. this contains the actual ROM)

GingerKernel (3-5MB) - the Kernel the phone operates on. Basically, the Kernel runs your hardware and tells it how to communicate with the software (ROM)

Kernel updates improve speed, battery life, things like that. ROMS change features, allow you to make calls/send sms/ browse the internet. They are kind of a symbiotic pair. One wont work without the other.

YOUR MOM comes with GingerKernel v6.2. Update to 8.0 to improve some things (double tap, has new CPU governors, other things).

upgrading your kernel is kind of like putting a bigger turbo on a car, or boring and stroking your mustang, whatever.
