Good work man, I'll try it!!

imho, it's one of the featured smoothest rom besides CM. try it with BFS kernel.

Hmm.. there seems to be little interest in this rom port. I'll discontinue the port if people don't want it.

Thanks a lot for the hard work. Will try it out mate

no many issues so far, everything seems to work well.

Thank you. this is just what I was looking for. I was using bcrook's CM port in earlier versions and was doing ok(only some FCs in the first boot).
and since build Y I can't user bcrook's port with app2sd and swap..maybe something to do with the new kernel.
I did post in that thread if there is a 32A port prior the release, but guess too many people are just too excited for the new release and overlooked my post..anyway
please don't discontinue it, I am sure many people will like to run WG build on their 32A Sapphire.
just wondering, I saw your other thread MAGIC Port, can we use that with ANY dream/32B ROM? and more importantly, is is stable? (I saw an big red ALPHA..)
if so, can we also use that with WG-Build?
so you can take a rest now, then?

Thanks for porting, this rom seems sexy. Lol. Aniwae, pls continue! Since it would be great to have this rom widely used on 32A radios.

@haozheng91
MAGIC Port is stable actually.
But no, for WG Build and few other roms, even though it ports properly, it doesn't do a full port. For Cyanogen Mod, WG Build Y, Enomether etc. they use custom kernels. When you use my magic port, well, it does work, but it's not using the intended kernel which the ROM creator compiled.
But anyway, your problem was you're using CM Port over WG Build Y.. that's incorrect because of the different ramdisk (the rom init script). Hence the A2SD failed.
---
the rom is stable so far for me. i'm loving it and the smoothness.
so far, no FC. though, BFS does drain battery.

What's the difference between CFS & BFS?

multitouch
wipe
flash WG-Build Y.R1 - CFS with RAM Hack
flash wgbuildy_ebi1_signed.zip - CFS kernel
everything is going well, but multitouch doesnt work ...

BFS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_Fuck_Scheduler
Naturally, smoother UI but drains a little more battery.
@coltcha:
CFS somehow doesn't work. Try BFS. I'll recompile the kernel once wesgarner release another version.

Does this ROM include the radio image that will brick a 32A magic?

BFS drains more battery.. that's good to know.
if Cyanogen Mod and WG Build use different kernel, then what are some ROMs we can use your magic port? Cyanogen Mod is one of the most popular ROMs there..
what about any of the Eclair ROMs?
I have heard that BFS is supposed to be a little faster..but WG recommands CFS as BFS is not as stable or something.. as for the battery, I always have to recharge everyday, so can't really tell the difference between different ROM or kernel...

it doesnt.
@haozheng91
like i said, it'll work on any 32B roms.
it's just not a full port for cases of roms with custom kernel. so... if you go on to the dream forums, if the ROM dev say he compiled his own kernel... you will just not benefit from the custom kernel enhancement. that's all.
though, most of the time, the custom kernel isn't much of a benefit as they're usually just variants of existing kernels with different build configs. you'll also see that most devs tend to us CM kernel... especially eugene eclair roms and some senseui roms.

So it is safe for me to flash the ROM and then apply your port file, with my current SPL and Radio? Thanks.

yes. it should be. but then again, flash at your own risk, i or the rom dev aren't responsible if you brick your phone.

2.6.27 Optimized Kernel Github Project

Since it appears there is already a 2.6.29 porting github project I made one for the 2.6.27 kernel. This one is for optimizations.
http://github.com/chuckhriczko/heroc-kernel-optimized-2.6.27

bump.
while we don't have a 29 kernel, this is pretty important too. getting compcache and other stuff is also important

please update your BFS patch

This became a big mess as I was learning more about compiling linux kernels. I plan on rebooting this project soon. Been busy with a couple freelance projects so I havent had much time. Actually, if any devs are looking at this, any idea why BFS is giving me issues? The instructions say I should be using 2.6.27.35 which I assume this is not. But trying to patch it to .35 is giving me issues.

{GPL}[Kernel][Tool] ZenKernel HTC Kernel Overclocked UnderVolted + AnyKernel 8-29-10

AnyKernel zips will only replace the kernel in your boot.img.
To define a boot.img:
Kernel(zImage) + ramdisk(root file system + init scripts) = boot.img
Where AnyKernel came from:
While searching for different kernels for my Motorola Droid I stumbled on a great idea implemented by Koush. Basically it will split the boot.img from recovery while your phone is running then replace the kernel and make a new boot.img and flash it along with the correct modules for the kernel.
I figured I would implement it on the CDMA Hero and it worked out.
This will work on any rooted rom with a custom recovery running Sense UI including the stock rom.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are the undervolted and overclocked kernels for Sense ROMS
These kernels are built from the HTC heroc-2.6.29-bc0d2ccf source with toasts overclock patch modified by darchstar/Decad3nce to include undervolt.
The git repo for this is @ http://github.com/zenulator/htc-heroc-2.6.29-bc0d2cff
The GPL license can be read @ http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html
ZenKernel-HTC-08122010 no perf lock
It has perf lock disabled to allow full overclocking with out the need use setcpu to disable perf lock. The clock speeds will stay at what ever the target rom uses unless you running a rom with no overclock built in. If so it will scale from 19mhz to 768mhz.
Download
ZenKernel-HTC-08122010 perf lock
Same as above but with perf lock enabled. It will run at stock values on any sense Rom until you use setcpu. To overclock it you will need to set setcpu to autodetect and then disable perf lock inside setcpu.
Download
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
StockVoltage Overclocked Kernel:
This kernel is built from the same source as the rest except the voltages were changed to stock values. It will max out at 691 and the governor is set to performance.
Download
Setcpu is free for xda memebers and can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3638937&postcount=1
Instructions:
Download the update and copy it to the root of your sdcard.
Reboot into recovery.
Nandroid (just in case you want to go back)
Flash the update
Reboot
Check Settings > About phone > Software information > Kernel version
_____________________________________________________________________________
If you wish to modify this with another kernel just extract the update and replace the zImage in the kernel directory with the one you want and replace the corresponding modules. Then rezip and resign and flash. It will work on any 2.1 sense rom regardless of boot.img.

Damn good work zenulator I am downloading it now and will test thoroughly tomorrow and see how it go's.
Thanks for the hard work.

Works great, using it with your beta ROM. Lock screen lag is gone
I got used to it so I barely noticed it... but now it seems a lot faster

I know you just started this and it says for sense. But I gotta ask is there anyway that this will work with froyo? I'm not a fan of overclock roms because of the lag when you push the menu key till when you screen is actually ready to go. And this gives me hope
of having a kernel that doesn't do that

Yes it will work for froyo if you modify it and put in the correct zImage (kernel). It won't work with the update I posted since it's made for Sense roms and uses HTC's Synaptics driver which isn't compatible with AOSP 2.2 Froyo/Cyanogenmod.
If you want a AOSP kernel with no overclock and no ability to overclock at all then I can do that but not for a couple days. If you ask darch he might be able to do it quicker since he already has everything set up and most likely only two files will need to be changed before a compile.

Thanks for the reply I'm gonna give the new kernel a chance to see how it does

Excuse my ignorance but how is this different from Standard DarchKernel vUV2 691 MHz found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705074 ?
That's what I'm using and it already says
Kernel version

Thanks for this zen works great

this is undervolted correct? does this really help the battery life?

Uhh. I'm going to give a brief explanation.
AnyKernel is a tool created by Koushik Dutta found here on github.
The beauty of it is that it can flash/add a kernel to any boot.img regardless of ramdisk. It literally does the unpacking of the boot.img, extracting of the ramdisk, deletion of the original kernel and repacking of the boot.img together with the kernel of your choice.
The difference with this is probably changes in base address/cmd line and possible how it's extracted(haven't looked at it). Very awesome tool nonetheless, and is a lot more efficient that going through the process of coupling the kernel with each specific ramdisk before releasing a boot.img.
That's how it's different from your quoted "kernel".

I understand the explanation but have to ask what rge different change. I know this will just change the kernal from the boot imiage which is great and it has the HTC synaptic drivers in the kernal but that kernal with the HTC drivers has already been implemented into the latest boot.imgs. its a cool concept and would make it easier to change just the kernal for a one shot stop when a newer kernal comes out but as of right now that's the same kernal most of the sense based roms have already implemented into them at this time. If im wrong I'm sorry.

Now with the HTC Synaptics driver included, the swipe action once the screen is on is no longer lagged. However, I notice that there is still lag from the time the power button is hit to the time the screen comes on as compared to stock where there is almost no lag. Is there some other driver or something that causes this?

Well just an update but it has been very smooth so far, 8 hours as still smooth . Great job. Screen rotation and scroll seem quicker also .

This will just make it a lot easier instead of having multiple boot.img for different roms like in the other thread. Plus this will work on other roms not supported in the other thread. I know the kernel brings nothing new but for instance if someone wants to overclock my old ZenHero they can now do that. Or if someone just rooted their phone and installed RA or some other recovery this is all they need to over clock and still keep their stock system.
So when someone makes a new kernel they can use this and have it work on any Rom instead of just a specific Rom.

Makes sense. I thought about it actually and it will make things easier. I used it earlier today on a boot.img I flashed first that had the ramdisk mod for battery tweak but I think was missing the HTC synaptic driver. Lag is all gone and it worked great.

It's definitely going to make it easier for me at least since I plan on doing a bunch of new kernels based on toasts and darchstars work. As well as the official HTC kernel with toasts overclock.

Now this is what I'm talking about
I was looking for something like this. Darchstar is one helluva dev, but it seems like the only kernels in use these days are Toasts (base) then modded toast kerenels by Darchstar (which are great as well). But I'd like to see a couple of tweaks fixed in the most recent Kernel #6 such as the typo that Uroshiol mentioned that is located in the actual zImage in the DArchstar uv2 kernel 710 with freememkiller
Nice nice work ya'llz and great stuff Zen... makes the addition of new kernels a breeeeze

Wait...so there is an under volted, oc kernel available for nfinite's .6 stock rom that eliminates the menu button wake lag?? i dont like the lag but deal with it. although if there is a way to eliminate the lag, please share!!

Zen, you're definitely an unsung hero (no pun intended I swear) around these parts and I for one definitely appreciate your work. Cheers!

HTC Kernel Source Released for Evo3d/Sensation/Inc 2

Hey guys,
I know we have been using mocked up kernels for the sense 3.0 shoot ports and they have for the most part been stunning. I see HTC release the source code for the kernels for numerous recent devices
http://www.androidcentral.com/htc-r...ncluding-evo-3d-sensation-4g-and-incredible-2
Not sure if any of this could be helpful in building a more stable kernel. If it is and any of the Dev's come up with a new one and need testing, send me a PM and i will be glad to help.

The only kernel source of real use, or that we can really use at all, is the Thunderbolt kernel. Until we get a GB kernel source release, nothing great will happen.

"This is a minimalistic Thunderbolt kernel based on the HTC Desire HD source (ace-2.6.35.10), then upgraded to 2.6.35.13. It also includes some code from 2.6.36.x and 3.0rc6 (that's right you read correctly). A lot of the mods in my kernel are fairly experimental and not typically done by other kernel devs, so I would not get too upset if things don't work sometimes."
From Imoseyon's GB Sense kernel thread. I'm not really following what you're saying here.

Anyone still uses gb rom and want custom kernel?

sooooo my mum bought new phone and her old gt-s7500 is lying around not used. i want to play with it and probably compile custom kernel. so anyone wants custom gb kernel?

I think that it would appreciated :good:

anyone wants the gb custom kernel can pm me.
i'm using mb-14 source as base, overclockable upto 1,2ghz, i've backported interactive governor from kernel 3.4, added custom gpu table, added dynamic fsync, added logger control, compiled using gcc 4.4.3 with correct arm cortex-a5 for ace plus. 50mb zram. tested and running fine for two days now, stable and no reboot.

Could you give me a link to mb-14's sources? I can't seem to find traces of any GB kernel anywhere, even in Samsung's site. This could help me in building a new stable 3.4 kernel.
Thanks!
