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.

[32A][6.35] Overclock Kernel for 1.5 Sense ROMs - 710 MHz, 2.6.27.6, SetCPU Support

For
32A Magic on any Sense update based ROM
6.35 radio
Tested on CursorSense 1.2.6
AnyKernel version for any 1.5 Sense ROM 2.6.27.6 kernel
710 MHz is stable for 32A. It's well proven. Now.
If you are flashing this kernel over Cyanogenmod 5, I don't know what's wrong with you. The .27 kernel isn't meant for Donut, nevermind Eclair. Unless you know how to resolve some of the weird crap that will inevitably happen by you doing something like that, don't do it.
v3 Version works even when you setup setcpu profiles. enabled range from 176 MHz to 710 MHz. If you know how to customize setcpu, it is enabled to allow up to 768 MHz. included setcpu.txt that goes into /system/sd. Does not autodetect.
You can enable 729.6, 748.8 and 768 MHz by manually editing setcpu.txt.
ondemand governor seems to be buggy (exists also with Hero oc kernel, confirmed tests by than33). Try msm7k or performance instead.
Undervolted at lower speeds (245 MHz and down).
v2 Version is not setcpu compatible but does not require setcpu to scale properly. Does not display cpu frequencies. Possible dead on standby bug on some ROMs. SetCPU wont work because this kernel has perflock configured.
BOGOMIPS will still display 528 MHz but it is actually running at 710 MHz whenever 528 MHz is shown. Run a benchmark to see if it is actually faster.

Bluetooth, GPS wifi all still work on my phone
If your phone wont boot, revert boot.img and wlan.ko by reflashing those files or reflashing your ROM entirely.
I deleted the kernel source off my computer for this. What you see is what you get

Can I just flash this over an existing cursorsense ROM then?

Yes, that's what i just did.
My score in linpack went from 2.32 (average) up to 3.13. And the phone looks stable and responsive.

That's the point

Haha sorry for that it was early and I'm a bit of a noob - anyway, definitely stable as hell so far, with only a bit more battery drain. Dolphin browser is noticeably smoother.
I was having issues a few weeks ago using any other kernel other than cursors, but this one is working fine (for the obvious reasons). Problem was yellowing and interlacing issues on the screen. I would be curious to try another ROM and flash this kernel to see if it would help those with the newer Rogers magics.
EDIT: don't do this. wouldn't boot past blank screen. wooooo ADB!

This is running on my 32A Magic right now. Everything seems okay actually.
Battery life doesn't seem much worse neither. This patch just bumps the frequency up without changing voltage.

WHat's about test with app Benchmark?

Before? After?
Real overclock or placebo?

If you still think this patch is placebo you have not been around for the last couple weeks

does it work on 2.1 Sense UI ROM (e.g. Smoki, CapySlide)?

Flashed on top of Capymod's ROM based on Sanpei's Legend 0.4 (Eris). Phone no longer boots.
6.35 Radio
1.76.2007 SPL
HTC Magic 32A (Rogers)
Reverted to pre-patched system.img and it's fine again though.

Do you think this is dangerous for the phone? I mean, I know there's always a certain risk, but is it high?

I said this is for 1.5 Sense roms. Why are you guys even trying this for 2.1 roms?

I know in computer OC'ing, the danger is heat, hence the advent of things like water cooling and fans the size of a hubcap.. If the same rings true, I don't think we have too much to worry about as the upping of the frequency hasn't put out any noticeable heat increase during gaming, calls, and regular usage. At least on my phone.

Looks like Sense 2.1 roms won't work with this. Thanks anyway!

Strangely enough Linpack reports no apparent improvement after flashing the update over, still in the 2.2-2.3s. Using CursorSense 1.2.6.1, 6.35 radio, on top of 32A. Any ideas?

Ok. I'm testing, but...
I installed CursorSense 1.2.4 fresh after full wipe, then 1.2.6 and got problem with superuser, then installed 1.2.6.1 - problems with superuser were gone
Installed Linpack 1.1.2, tested without patch...
Then installed patch via recovery, started, tested with Linpack again
No 3.xxx points, same 2.390-2.410 points
Why?
I explore patch - it contain 08dalviklink script. After installing patch - script can be found in /system/etc/init.d. SO patch installed successfully, but why Linpack results are same???
p.s. In build version: Cursorsense32A-1.2.6 + Dalvik-Cachemod by xau. What's wrong?
p.p.s.
Turned wifi off. Results are same
Disconnect from computer. Results are same.

Second try
Wiped everything
Installed 1.2.4, then 1.2.6.1, then patch
Tested by Linpack - got 2.41
Disappointment...

like all CM-based rom you can just flash the rom and after the ebi kernel port.
work only with old (3.22) radio

hi what do you mean by 'after the ebi kernel port'?

i have tried. but i cant get 850 OC as he said , i can get 576 Oc only. i suspect BC only OC to 576 in all his kernel

just flash the ROM for G1, and then flash a kernel for 32A (there are a few).
once you apply the kernel, then thats all..
about the OC, of course you wont get it since ure using different kernel now.

[REQ] superFroyo for 32a

Perfectly well

Well I don't think anybody should do any special port for any G1/32B roms.
I you wish to flash any of the roms in g1 section, the only thing you need to do is flash one of pershoot/bcrook/dumfuq 32A kernels on top of it and it will work just fine. Just make sure you flash the correct kernel version according to the rom base CM version.

In my opinion there is not a significant benefit to porting SuperFroyo since we now have other Froyo roms (without sense ui) that....
(1) Run on 32a 3.22 and 6.35 radios
(2) Have JIT working
(3) Have overclock kernels available up to ~700+ MHz
(4) Have Spareparts, CyanogenMod Settings and SetCPU for tweaking rom performance
These roms can now easily get 4.0-5.0 in Linpack and are stable.
Out of curiousity, I ported SuperFroyo a few days ago. The performance tweaks in SupSetup were not capatible with the .32 Sanpei kernel that was available for the 32a 6.35 radio at the time I did the port. We recently have the .34 kernel for the 32a 6.35 radio (thanks to carz12 and Switch33). I will update the ported SuperFroyo with the .34 kernel for the 32a 6.35 radio tonight or tomorrow hopefully. I don't think the result will be better than the other Froyo roms we have now, but I am happy to post a link if people want it.

thank you brother giant_rider for your hard work to give us the happiness
thanks you again giant

Hey giant_rider, I want link.
Thanks

giant please post the link

Here is a link to a ported SuperFroyo rom.
It is running Sanpei's .32 kernel for 32a 6.35 radio.
Some of the features in SupSetup are not enabled because they are not compatible with the kernel the way it is set up.
http://rapidshare.com/files/408904656/SuperFroyo2.4_32a_NR_v0.2.zip.html
I have been unable to get this rom to boot properly using the carz / switch .34 kernel. You can try flashing that kernel over this rom from recovery if you like. I think all of the settings in SupSetup could be enabled with the .34 kernel.
I am still sceptical whether this rom will be any better than the ones we have for 32a 6.35 or 3.22.
For a fast lite rom, I suggest you try flashing Switch's Fusebox Froyo, then install SetCPU and up the max CPU to 652 or 691 MHz. I did this tonight and got linpack of 4.6 and my phone is stable.

giant_rider,
Thanks

[Q] Best Kernel for ICS on G2x?

I've recently flashed to an ICS rom, and I am now trying to figure out what the best kernel is to run with it (I'd really like to see one that maximizes battery life.) If you are running ICS, would you mind please posting what ROM you are using and what Kernel you have along with it. Also, take a second to explain the pros and cons of that Kernel so we may all make more informed decisions as we prepare to potentially flash one...
Thank you kindly!

I would say Faux123 its a good kernel and its good for a good battery life.

Mr. Apocalypse uses Harsh's kernel for Genesis. Owain uses Harsh's kernel for his ICS build. x0xhellx0x uses Faux's kernel for Hellfire Sandwich. I think you can use those as starting point. I like Morfic's Trinity kernel because you can OC to 1560.

Everyone is. NVIDIA has yet to release ICS drivers... so there is sub optimal video on all ICS builds.
We await the official release.

i would recomment the harsh kernel 1505 oc i love it smooth nice battery. i'm against faux it's good in battery and fast, but when you try doing too many stuff it starts hanging
