Re: [KERNEL][GB/CM7] GingerKernel v04 (OC)

ext4 pleeeeeease...great job btw =] I check for updates on this kernal and optirom constantly...I think I am hooked!
 
hmm wondering what is the defaut oc of this kernel? could be if its set too high so those of us that cannot go over 748mhz are getting the reboots?

The default is stock 600 MHz. You have to overclock it manually. Max is 806 because nobody needs any higher IMO.
 
Re: [KERNEL][GB/CM7] GingerKernel v04 (OC)

I am running this on Grom 1.1 without any problems, wiped Cache and flashed. I have it set at 806 (my phone runs fine at that speed for everyday use)
 
Re: [KERNEL][GB/CM7] GingerKernel v04 (OC)

List of changes in an upcoming release (GingerKernel v05.1):

EXT4 FS support
Smartass2 and InteractiveX governors
jhash2 -> jhash3
New CFLAGS for (hopefully) slight performance gains
Removal of LG kernel build hijacking

It's currently in testing by myself and other Opti-ROM developers, I won't publicly release it until testing is complete.

oh oK thanks for clearing that up. was wondering because i know my phone cannot clock over 748 and everyone who seems to have it working is running at 806. for some reason have problems with the kernel not booting and even with OptiRom have the booting issues.But at least optirom works after a few reboots but if i soft reset, same problem. Tried wiping cache and davlik before and after flashing kernel but no luck.Could be hardware problem on some phones i guess.
 
I am running the v04 now.
I tested that screen error mentioned and it only happens when I use the home key (sometimes not) the power,menu and back key dont, I also have menu key set to unlock the screen. I have all animations&dithering etc. disabled.
 
Re: [KERNEL][GB/CM7] GingerKernel v04 (OC)

Maybe that's wrong, I just edited.keymaps
changed all menu back home WAKE DROPPED to WAKE
seems to be worse, happens at random with home/back key
never notice it with menu & power key.
pressing menu to unlock wakes screen without touching it

drew, you weren't kidding with this one. Great work again! :D
 
Re: [KERNEL][GB/CM7] GingerKernel v04 (OC)

Next kernel release will be v05.2, as I added something kind of last-minute.

In v05.2, I added the Stochastic Fair Blue (SFB) network scheduler. I'm not going to go into detail about what this actually does but for those who are so inclined, you can read the whitepaper (PDF).

?
I enjoy looking at your source, (am awaiting newest with anticipation) but would you care to elaborate on this a little?
Are they blocking certain modifications or something? Did they booger the source like they first did with the OV?
Thanks for the tireless work!
 
Re: [KERNEL][GB/CM7] GingerKernel v04 (OC)

for some odd reason my phone does not like this kernal no matter what i do... any way to fix the frozen boot screens? or is my phone juss too stupid?

My phone does this to. And as far as i can see its only a few phones that have this issue and i dont think anyone knows why. Its boot looping though it does look like its crashing. I am trying to see if there was a way to get to a log file or make a log file to ser where its crashing at to send the info to drew so he can fix the issue or give us some insight to why its.boot looping

To get a log file...

You need ADB. To get ADB you do not need the entire SDK. You can just use the ADB.EXE and ADBxxxx.dll. If you dont have them send me a PM and I will post them. Otherwise download and install Android SDK and get ADB that way.

Either-way....

From a Command Prompt with ADB in path....

CODE
adb logcat > error_log.txt


That will redirect log cat to the file error_log.txt. You can then upload that to the thread for drew to inspect.

If you are bored and want to see whats going on while its booting and don't care if you save it as a text file... just type
CODE
adb logcat

That will out put the logcat to the screen in real time. Increase your DOS Buffers and you can capture quite a bit.

ok did this and this is what the log files said am i missing something

/sbin/sh: exec: line 1: logcat: not found
 
. During the time it is stuck at the lg screen adb.is saying waiting for device and it does not change so i dont know whats going on i let it sit for a few mins i made a mistake at my previouse post i wasnt doing it while it loaded
And i know the drivers are installed and adb is working cuz in recovery i can adb and run the command you gave scott.

The kernel is defaulted at 806. It is just a stroke of luck to actually make it to the unlock screen on first boot, download setcpu and slow it down to 787. Phone cannot handle 806.
