[KERNEL][Huawei U8150] Noma - experimental Froyo hotness [20120514][GPL]

Noma kernel for Huawei U8150​
I'm introducing my custom kernel for Huawei U8150 IDEOS phones. In Kenyan Swahili noma usually means "tight," as in: "That music is tight!" It can be used in other ways too, but I like this connotation the best.
Goals​My aim is to learn about Linux kernel internals, practice software development using git, and to share with the community. In addition to that, I want to explore and test tweaks which lead to increased/optimized performance on this bargain phone (it's very popular in Kenya). Some of the areas of improvement I have in mind are:
CPU scheduling (UI responsiveness, reducing lag)
CPU frequency scaling governors (smartass? ondemandX? interactiveX?)
I/O scheduling and filesystems (flash disk performance, throughput, latency, maybe simpleio scheduler?)
Security (network, local)
Newer drivers (mainstream, community kernel sources)
Newer GCC compilers (CodeSourcery, Linaro)
Easy rooting
Integrate ClockWorkMod Recovery
Integrate busybox
Explore different compression algorithms (LZO, gzip, LZF, etc) for zImage...
Compcache (zram) (info, announcement)
SLOB memory allocator for better memory allocation? (info)

Change log​Change logs are a pain in the ass to keep up to date, but you can see changes live in the git repository itself. See the commit history of the below branches if you're curious:
froyo-noma-dev commits (dev, bleeding edge)
froyo-noma commits (stable)
Source code​
I respect the GPL (the license covering the Linux kernel), so all the up-to-date source code for this kernel is available on github. My kernel is, in turn, based on the publicly-avaiable Froyo kernel sources from Huawei. You're free to fork, modify, and re-release the code as your own, but you must provide the source code for your resulting work. Doing so ensures you honor the terms of the license, but you're also giving back to the community. Basically, don't be a ****.
Credits​
I've written zero lines of C code for this kernel. My work is merely to search for interesting modifications to the Linux kernel and add them to a git repository. The real work has been put in by the following people:
Linus Torvalds and all the other Linux kernel hackers around the world
tj_style (multi-touch gesture support)
Stefano Viola (over/underclock)
Renaud Allard for his Galaxy S awesome sauce (kernel, initramfs, etc)
Erasmux (smartassV2)
Let me know if I've left you out.
Donations​
Hahaha! No seriously, save your money; I am gainfully employed and I just do this for fun (and lulz)! Instead, just hit "thanks" on this thread. Or, if you're ever in Nairobi you could always buy me a cup of coffee.

Reserved for flashing instructions...

Could you please post fashing instructions via custom recovery?
Im a bit of a noob.
Thanks.

Use fastboot!

I usually just flash from fastboot lately, as I'm between ROMs too much and I don't bother installing a custom recovery. I suppose I should modify my build scripts to make recovery-flashable zips... hang tight!
... or, if you can't wait, check out my in-depth blog post about compiling and flashing custom kernels on Huawei 8150. I wrote it a few weeks ago when I was a U8150 n00b.

v47 (20110823)
Changes in 20110823v47 (from the git commit log):
Add new, lookup3-based jhash. See: http://burtleburtle.net/bob/hash/doobs.html
pids: fix a race in pid generation that causes pids to be reused immediately
lib/decompress_bunzip2.c: fix checkstack warning
kbuild: drop unifdef-y support
net sched: fix some kernel memory leaks
net/ipv4: Eliminate kstrdup memory leak
Add noma_defconfig. `ARCH=arm make noma_defconfig` to use.
Mostly security and memory leak fixes. The new jhash implementation is based on lookup3.c, a newer, more-efficient implementation (more info here). It's mainly used in the kernel's ipv4 and ipv6 stacks, so don't expect revolutionary performance increases, but it's backwards compatible with the old implementation, so it couldn't hurt to include it.
Default IO scheduler is now deadline (the same as stock Huawei) until I can do some performance tests of other schedulers on this device. Note: I've included BFQ, Anticipatory, CFQ, and noop as well, so you can use those if you like!

v49 (20110824)
Changes in 20110824v49 (from the git commit log):
Default to ZLO compression of kernel and ramdisk. LZO has roughly the same (but worse) compression, but is much faster to decompress.
Add LZO compression support for initramfs and old-style initrd
Add support for LZO-compressed kernels on x86
Add support for LZO-compressed kernels for ARM
Add support for LZO-compressed kernels
LZO compression is not as efficient but should be faster than the default compression (gzip), which should improve boot time. See: http://free-electrons.com/blog/lzo-kernel-compression/.

Why are you working on Froyo and not on Gigerbread?

Why I'm still working on Froyo

As this is basically a research project (for both me and the community), the primary reason I'm still "working" on Froyo is that most U8150s are still running Froyo. It's an incredibly popular phone in Kenya (maybe 250,000 - 500,000 units sold?), but I have a hunch very few of them are running non-stock ROMs. Sure, CyanogenMod 7 has a fairly-active U8150 port in progress, but it's not widely used yet.
Like I said, this is primarily a research project, so I'm experimenting for my own curiosity. A part of that is to help people get into Linux kernel, Android, and open-source software development. I want to help set an example of openness, collaboration, documentation, etc.
Also, a lot of the mods I'm making can just as well apply to Gingerbread when we finally get there.

Custom kernel booting on U8150 CM7

Fun times... I just got a custom kernel to boot on CM7. It's nowhere near as usable as tilal's kernel, but it is a good exercise. More info here on my blog.
I suppose that whenever I get bored enough with Froyo I could always hop over to CM7. AOSP is where my heart is anyways.

v56 (20110827)
Changes (from the git commit history):
Add su, Superuser.apk, and busybox. This kernel/boot.img will now actively root Huawei stock ROMs.
Remove pre-zipped ramdisks as they are now generated on the fly from the compile scripts.
Correct the name of the compressed ramdisk (mkbootfs technically creates a cpio archive, which I then zip).
Make sure `make clean` doesn't delete our pre-compiled wireless module.
Add mkbootfs for creating ramdisks, and update compile.sh to create ramdisks on the fly instead of using a pre-zipped one.
Add ramdisk from U8150 V100R001C18B842
The build system is now a little more flexible and generates ramdisks on the fly. This should make it more powerful and complete. I've also included su, Superuser.apk, and busybox to enable a very cool new feature: rooting! If you haven't forked or cloned my kernel repository yet, what are you waiting for?
Regarding "rooting," forget what you've heard (it's probably wrong). Here's what it actually means:
Copying the su binary to /system/bin/su
Copying the Superuser.apk application to Superuser.apk
Period. What this means is that Android applications can call on the su binary whenever they want to do perform system administration actions (ie, not normal user actions), such as removing system applications with Titanium Backup. The Superuser.apk application is simply a frontend for su; whenever an application tries to execute su, a Superuser dialog pops up asking you to allow or deny the request. This notion, known as "privilege separation," is a common one in all operating systems.

v83 (20110903)
Changes (from the git commit history):
sched: export nr_running symbol for use by smartassV2 CPU governor.
config: sync with latest config
sched_fair: Restore less extereme latency values (latency of 6ms)
sched: enable HRTICK
sched_fair: Enable HRTICK
cpufreq: add smartassV2 governor
Switch busybox, older version (1.18.4) but slimmer, more appropriate for our needs (from https://faramir.eriador.org/r/).
Minimum frequency to 122MHz at boot, as well as smartassV2 governor.
Optimized ARM RWSEM algorithm
Cleanup after installation of su stuff. We're on a ramdisk after all, we need to conserve memory.
Change location of root stuff so it isn't in the $PATH
Add Simple I/O Scheduler
Add V(R) i/o scheduler
Update to latest Linaro GCC 4.6 compiler.
Two major changes are the addition of the simpleio IO scheduler and the smartassV2 CPU governor. The simpleio scheduler is based on/around the noop and deadline schedulers, designed specifically with non-rotating media in mind (flash disks, hello!). The smartassv2 CPU governor controls how your CPU switches between frequencies (from 122MHz at idle to 672MHz when in use). I haven't done any benchmarks, but these should improve responsiveness and battery life (in theory at least!).
Other than that, the latest Linaro GCC 4.6 compiler, some small optimizations to ARM-specific functions, and ramdisk/boot cleanups. If you're curious about smartassV2 there's more info here, on erasmux's github page here.

cm7 nightly bugged one ?????? i dnt like it iz there iz n e fixed cm7 for ideos ????
btw your kernel doesnt works with cm7 and can u please make a kernel for samsung galaxy gio with smartass v2 ??

Aorth, I tried flashing you kernal, and unfortunately there is one error when flashing with the latest CM7.1. After the flash, the phone will be stuck at the boot screen. I was wondering if you can get this fixed, that'll be great

This kernel is meant for stock ROMs

Yeah, this kernel was really meant for Froyo stock ROMs. It won't work on CyanogenMod builds because the ramdisk's init scripts are not compatible.
My U8160 kernel repo has a kernel which works on CM7... but you'll have to compile it yourself

nice kernel ........... working fine on ideos u8150-B .... I flash it with stock rom ................. battry becomes efficient ...

Good Job!
Hello aorth,
I'm now using the LEANdroidMOD 5 based on your kernel and I have to say the name NOMA suits it to a tee. It's my default ROM now when I'm not testing your or tilal6991's builds. Thanks and you have yourself a happy holiday season!

hello,
will there be any update of your noma kernel? this is my fav because all roms out there eat my battery like mad, so i just use your kernel and i'm happy with it
greetings

oh man please update, this is one nice kernel!

CM7 u8150 april 5th
IS this already built in to your CM7 last updated april 5th rom or is that a diffrent kernel? which one is better? would it be hard to install it on that rom? whats the advantages over the built in cm7 rom? Thanks sounds awsome anything to make that baby faster is great. Good work

SU Binary Outdated notification
flasehd v83 on the stock 2.2.1 kenya 1 mutli touch rom all went good but whenever i restart the phone su binary shows the notifications bout su binary being outdated which i updated , i did it multiplie times but it comes up everytime the phone is rebooted , other than that su binary working ok ,
dont know how to fix it , other than that the phone is working so responsive , enjoying it
when i flashed the kernel , the phone was already rooted
cheeeeeeeeeeers

Frequently Asked Questions​
For NOOBS​
Q) How to flash the kernel
A) Just apply update.zip from Recovery or flash tar file using ODIN.
Q) Will i lose my data if i flash kernel?
A) No, you wont lose any data nor do you have to wipe data or cache.
Q) Does my battery need to be 100% to flash?
A) Not at all
Q)Flashed CM 6.2 Kernel on Froyo Rom and WIFI doesnt work?
A) There are two versions of Kernel. One is for Froyo Rom and other is for CyanogenMod Rom 6.2 (CM 6.2). if you are on Froyo rom and flash CM 6.2 then your wifi wont work and vice versa.
Q) 1400 Mhz (Extreme version) doesnt work for me
A) Not all Galaxy 3 suppport overclocking as high as 1400 Mhz. If it doesnt work then keep frequency lower or flash Ultimate, Performance or Lite version
Q) What does this data2sd in g3mod do?
A) data2sd is method by which all your /data partition goes to your sdcard thus giving you more space for downloading apps. Its suggested to use data2sd only if your sdcard class is higher than Class 6
Q) Internel Memory shows 0kb
A) Check if you have fs.data2sd at this location /sdcard/Android/data/g3mod/ If yes then delete it or else your sd card doesnt have sd-ext partition
Q) How can i go to recovery mode
A) Press MENU+VOLUME UP+VOLUME DOWN+POWER button and bingo!!!
Q) Should i use multi boot even if i am having 2 gb card class 2 ?
A) Sd card with any class can use multiboot
Q) Data Wipe Necessary When Switching Between CM and Froyo ?
A) Yes data wipe is necessary for switching roms between CM and Froyo. But we have given option to Backup data also in recovery.
Q) My APP is not working after Flashing KERNEL
A) Its not a kernel problem
Q) What is tun.ko?
A) It is basically used to setup Open VPN connections
Q) What is jhash3?
A) jhash3 improves the HSDPA/3G/EDGE speed
For Advanced users​
Q1) Battery is draining fast?
A) After flashing the kernel please calibrate your battery or else let 3-4 full battery cycles pass.
Q2) Which profiles should i use?
A) Lets take example that you are using Ultimate kernel. Keep the governor ondemand (Like every good boyfriend fulfills all demands of his girlfriend ondemand governor does the same for your CPU ).
Make profiles:-
1) Time Profile - 12 am to 6.00 am Freq 100 Mhz to 400 Mhz Priority 100
2) Screen Off - Freq 100 Mhz to 600 Mhz Priority 95
Q3) What are advanced settings in the SetCPU mean?
A) Sampling rate is rate at which the frequency of your CPU changes. Up Threshold is limit at which CPU will change freq on load (Scales Up). Down Threshold (conservative only) is limit at which CPU will change freq on load (Scales Down). Powersave bias is used for saving the power of CPU, it will slow down the CPU and affect the performance also 200 in powersave bias mean 20%...250 means 25% and so on.
Q4) I want performance and also good battery what profiles should be i use?
A) Refer to Q2 for Profiles Set up and now go in Advanced tab and Keep Sampling Rate 10000 or 15000. Upper Threshold to 90 and Powersave bias to 200 (20%). Since we are using powersave bias, this will affect the performance as it slows down the CPU so to increase the performance we are lowering the Sampling rate thus we get perfect balance of Performance and good battery backup.
NOTE: ABOVE SETTINGS ARE JUST EXAMPLE..PLEASE PLAY AROUND AND CHOOSE SETTINGS WHICH SUITS YOU THE BEST

Steps for Multi boot:
1) Flash Kernel v1.7+
2) Go to CWM Recovery -> Multiboot -> Backup ROM.
3) Backup your Current ROM to ROM1 (It will backup the system.img at /sdcard/Android/data/g3mod/roms/romname_ROM )
4) Add the system.img of your 2nd ROM to /sdcard/Android/data/g3mod/roms/romname_ROM and similarly for different ROM's.
5) Use the CWM Recovery -> Multiboot -> Switch ROM option to switch between different ROM's.
6) If switching between Froyo ROM and CM6.2 RoM, you will need to wipe data and also change kernel's via update.zip method.
7) Use the data backup and restore option to prevent loss of data when switching between Froyo and CM6.2 ROM's.
Note: Ask the developer of the ROM's to provide you with the system.img for their ROM
How to use Hybrid Data2SD
1) Connect your phone via ADB
2) Go into adb shell
3) Type 'echo hybrid > /sdcard/Android/data/g3mod/fs.data2sd'
4) Create a text document in Notepad with a list of all the directories you wish to move. Example:
Code:
app
log
dalvik-cache
---LEAVE A BLANK LINE AT THE END---
5) Save the file and call it 'data2sd.dirs'
6) Do 'adb push data2sd.dirs /sdcard/Android/data/g3mod/'
7) Reboot your phone
8) Once your phone has booted, run 'adb shell cat /data2sd.log' to ensure it is running correctly.
How to enable Multi Data
1) Connect your phone via ADB
2) Go into adb shell
3) Type 'echo 0 > /sdcard/Android/data/g3mod/multiosdata'
4) Multi Data will automatically backup your data upon booting into a different OS.
Make sure to not wipe your SD-EXT partition. Doing so will erase the backups from other firmware. Only wipe it if you wish to erase data for everything.
You can also use Multi Data to quickly restore data if your phone has become corrupted. It will restore it back to the last multi-boot switching
1) Connect your phone via ADB
2) Go into adb shell
3) Type 'echo 0 > /sdext/lastos'
4) Reboot the phone

If you want to use default configuration (as up to now.. 62 MB aprox.), you don't have to do anything different as what you have been doing. But if you want to use a more/less memory, here are the steps:
Inside that /sdcard/Android/data/g3mod/compcache file, write ONLY the number of MegaBytes you want to use for compcache.
Reboot.
If compcache file is empty or contains a "0" inside, it will use default configuration.
How to: BLN
This is only "needed" if you have a i5801 | i5800L or any other Galaxy 3 model with back button lights and want BLN in it.
How to install:
First, download the lights.GT-I5800.so file from google code. Then execute this commands:
adb remount (or if this doesn't work: mount -o remount,rw /dev/stl6 /system)
adb rm /system/lib/hw/lights*
adb push [Location of this file] /system/lib/hw
After that, reboot and now you have BLN working
Steps for Changing the Max Freq(Dynamic OC):
There is an entry in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/plls_table where you can put your own value for APLL.
Before doing this, set "PERFORMANCE" governor on and min and max frequencies to the maximum.
Code:
// Do this in adb
echo "0 a[SIZE="5"][B][U]258[/U][/B][/SIZE]0[SIZE="5"][B][U]3[/U][/B][/SIZE]01 a14d0303 c07e13fc cf850240" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/plls_table
You need to replace the 258(Hex Value) with your desired value.
Here 258 means
(2*16*16) + (5*16) + 8 = 600
and 3 means it is 600*2 = 1200
Therefore, a2580301 means 1200MHz.
This is a temporary method. For a permanent Method, add this line to a init.d script. Name the script to something like S10_Dyanmic_OC.
Help Others: If you calculate a Hex Value for a particular frequencies add it here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dG5hdnpsWFdTNExiY2t3dy16VzBvaWc6MQ
You can view all the frequency Hex value's calculated by others over here:

Note:
We am learning how to develop kernels.
We willl add different features as and when we can implement them.
The main goal of this kernel will be to keep the phone stable and fast.
There will be nothing as alpha or beta releases.
We will give out the kernels directly, but if anything goes wrong and you have to reflash the ROM or kernel, please dont start shouting.
You may give us different ideas on what features to implement. We will try our best to implement all the features you want
Many of the features implemented in this kernel, are taken from marcellusbe's Fugumod Kernel, and we shall be ever thankful to marcellusbe for the fugumod kernel
Warning:
We are not responsible for any damage caused to your phone (softbrick or hardbrick)

Credits:
marcellusbe for all his help, awesome fugumod kernel
supercurio for voodoo v10
Paolo for BFQ I/O Scheduler
All developers for making this an awesome phone
Everyone who is helping is solving different issues with this kernel
Please let us know if we miss anyone ...oh we did already miss someone..thanks G3MOD TEAM too

What to the old thread?
Nm read that
Btw 6th post got some errors...

@Dharam, i have a question. In your v1.8 Kernel, We can change the partitions to any type we want, can't we? Because in Mumbozver's recovery, we could only use ext2/ext4/ext2.

The kernel itself supports everything, but CWM only supports EXT2. I will look into either porting CWM4 or getting 2.5 to support more systems.

getting 2.5 to support other partitions will be a better idea...coz for CWM 4 you need complete CM7 source, and also most of the update.zip's on the g3 forums use amend...and CWM 4 supports only edify....

All the best to the future process

Right, I want to work on USB OTG but lack the cable, and the only way I can do it with what I have is if I destroy my only USB cable for my phone. So if someone wants me to do USB OTG, then buy me a cable and I'll do it
All the stuff is there to do it, I just need to get the phone to switch into host mode.

I think v1.9 is going to come sooner than expected...excellent work by the whole team...

As many of you probably already know, I had another 'Fusion' kernel for the S4 HTC One S. However, because I incorporated mdeejay's patches, the kernel did not play nice with the CPU and whatnot. I nuked my repo, imported the T-Mobile US kernel sources, and re-built the kernel from scratch. I wanted to start a new thread so people would not mix up this and the old kernel.

Downloads
Do NOT flash versions 3.0 and higher in recovery!! They are 7zips!!
I purposely made it a 7zip archive so people don't flash it. Instead, extract the appropriate zip from the package and then flash like before. You get options of whether you want overclock or stock clock. The zip will flash the correct files and modules according to your choice and then clean out conflicting init.d scripts for the best possible compatibility.
All Downloads are HERE
How to Install
For hboot 1.09 and below:
Just flash the zip in TWRP recovery. It will automatically flash the boot.img for you.
For hboot 1.13 and up:
you have two options
Option #1
Use TWRP's HTC Dumlock feature. It is a pretty neat workaround that allows you to flash boot.imgs in recovery even on a higher hboot.
Look here for instructions from TeamWin. If you are not comfortable with this method, then follow option #2 to manually flash in fastboot.
Option #2
In addition to flashing the zip, you will have to extract the boot.img from the package and flash it manually with fastboot. Blame HTC for the half-assed 'unlock bootloader' offering they give us. Hopefully we will get S-OFF soon...
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot

For Developers
How to build this kernel from source:
This is assuming you already have your Linux environment setup and installed the required packages for compiling a kernel.
1. Clone my initramfs and kernel sources.
Code:
git clone git://github.com/klin1344/kernel_ville_US.git
git clone git://github.com/klin1344/initramfs_ville_4.0.3.git
2. Compress the ramdisk into a gzipped archive. First navigate to the initramfs_ville_4.0.3 directory, then:
Code:
find . | cpio -o -H newc | gzip > ../ramdisk.gz
3. Grab the toolchain from DoomLord's handy repo:
Code:
git clone git://github.com/DooMLoRD/android_prebuilt_toolchains.git toolchains
4. I have created an easy build script. Modify the top four lines to be applicable to your setup. Make sure CROSS_COMPILE is set to the directory of the toolchain we just downloaded earlier (there are two; not the Linaro one). And change INITRAMFS_DIR to the directory of the ramdisk.gz you created earlier.
5. Build. First navigate to the kernel_ville_US directory.
Code:
./build.sh ville_defconfig
for the stock option or
Code:
./build.sh ville_oc_defconfig
if you want the overclocked option.
The script will detect the number of cores of your CPU and automatically make with the optimal -j#.
6. If all goes well you should end up with a boot.img in the kernel_ville_US directory.

FAQ.... Please read this before posting questions!!!
FAQ​
Frequently asked questions. Please read all of this first, and then if it doesn't answer your question, feel free to ask in the thread. I just don't want to have to keep answering Is this kernel SENSE based? or How do I jailbreak my HTC One S??? type of questions. Lol. :silly: Thank you.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What ROMs is this kernel compatible with?
As stated in the OP, this kernel is compatible with all S4 devices running a 4.0.3 Sense-based ROM. It is NOT compatible with the new 2.21 RUU, which is Android 4.0.4 based. We will have to wait until HTC releases the new kernel source because the differences are not only in the initramfs.
What is the best governor for me to use?
It really depends on what you're looking for. If you want performance, go with Lionheart or Ondemand. If you want battery life, go with Conservative. And if you are looking for a balance between battery life and performance, then use either SmartassV2, Interactive, or LagFree. These are just my opinions. Look here for a great reference of all the CPU governors. Test them out and decide which works best for you.
Which I/O scheduler is the best?
I personally use SIO, but you can test and decide which is the best for you. Read here to find the pros and cons of each one.
How do I overclock?
The kernel should default at 192Mhz 1.5Ghz CPU clocks. To overclock, use SetCPU, No-Frills CPU, System Tuner Lite/Pro, or any similar CPU control app. Some apps don't allow the settings to stick properly. I recommend using No-Frills or System Tuner.
How do I undervolt?
Right now, the only app that works for voltage control is System Tuner. Both the Lite and Pro versions allow you to change the voltages. Do not use SetCPU as it doesn't work.
Here is the voltage table I am currently using:
Code:
1890mhz: 1250 mV
1809mhz: 1225 mV
1728mhz: 1200 mV
1674mhz: 1175 mV
1512mhz: 1150 mV
1458mhz: 1137 mV
1404mhz: 1125 mV
1350mhz: 1125 mV
1296mhz: 1100 mV
1242mhz: 1100 mV
1188mhz: 1075 mV
1134mhz: 1075 mV
1080mhz: 1025 mV
1026mhz: 1000 mV
972mhz: 1000 mV
918mhz: 975 mV
864mhz: 975 mV
810mhz: 950 mV
756mhz: 950 mV
702mhz: 900 mV
648mhz: 900 mV
594mhz: 875 mV
540mhz: 850 mV
486mhz: 800 mV
384mhz: 725 mV
192mhz: 650 mV
Please just take these as a grain of salt; not all chips are created equal! Some devices can become an ass when it comes to undervolting, while others can starve the CPU to death and still run fine. Experiment little by little until you find your perfect voltages.
What is zRam and how does it work?
Originally Posted by faux123
ZRAM (aka CompCache aka RAMZSwap)
ZRAM is an updated version formally known as CompCache and RAMZSwap. It was originally designed for 2.6.38.xx kernels, I have backported to our 2.6.35.xx kernel. ZRAM allows real-time compression of memory objects in RAM thus reducing memory pressure for the Linux kernel and can keep more apps in memory longer (more apps in RAM == better performance, less fetching from slower MMC or SDCard). Compression, however, is not Free. Some CPU cycles are required to do the compress/decompression, so there's a slight penalty for it. The original CompCache / RAMZSwap required a user space binary to control its behavior which adds additional penalty to performance, but the new version ZRAM eliminated the need for a separate dedicated daemon, thus reducing the overhead and increased performance from the old CompCache by 20%. Therefore, with the newer implementation of ZRAM interface, the performance penalty is almost negligible.

WiFi doesn't work???
Flash the alternative modules package in the OP. It is for EU based ROMs as well as MIUI Sense-based. You only need to flash it once, unless you change or update your ROM.

Nice..Will do testing...
Hopefully it give the best battery life than stock

Thank you sir!

Thanks. But unfortunately the reason I did not make it a zip is because that some of us who are on hboot 1.13 or higher can't flash boot.img's in TWRP recovery at all. The same goes for radios. I stupidly ran the 1.78 RUU, which update my hboot from 1.09 to 1.13. :crying:

Liking the kernel so far
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda premium

Bug I found -
-While install apps it take awhile for it to install. (1mins or 2min). I just phone the sit until it finish install
-After reboot ...the kernel take awhile for it kick in. For example..If you have email it will take awhile to prompt on notication bar .

Is it possible you can post zips for download in the OP? Thanks. Will try tomorrow.

Maybe try wiping data / factory reset? To be honest those sound more like rom issues rather than kernel related issues.

+1 but the thing is a bit complicated because we need current modules because of better wifi signal.
I guess we'll just have to wait for the new kernel source from 2.21 base

just flashed it with axiom v1.8.0
everything seems to be working fine.. it's fast smooth stable
nice stuff, Klin

[Kernel][Liquid Glow] Lupo's kernel[v1]

hi guys...Greets from Italy! i've builded this kernel for getting optimal performances with my acer liquid glow. This can be used with Stock rom and with Vache's glowing liquid rom.
HOWEWER , SINCE THAT SOME USERS REPORTED THAT VACHE'S KERNEL(LIKE ME) DOESNT' WORK ON SOME DEVICES, DO A NANDROID BACKUP WITH CWM RECOVERY FIRST.
Flash this .zip with recovery
This is the changelog
V1:
Added lazy, smartassv2, intellidemand, lagfree governor (change that with nofrills or setcpu)
Added Sio and vr I/O schedulers (change with nofrills or setcpu also that)
Added a Cortex A5 optimization
fixed wrong format for Adreno200 (first was RGBA_8888 now it's RGB565 that's is handled well with this GPU)
increased read-ahead values
new memory allocator : SLUB
improved the performances of memcpy and memmove of the general version

I also want to thanks Vache for his hints and porting recovery to this device. Without his help this couldn't be possible.I'm also starting to work to jelly bean update but i have no time for now

Links are not good with the '...'
[EDIT] Found correct link in other forum, will try it soon
Some random reboot, directly in fastboot mode, but very rare and less than Vache's kernel. If I do a clean cache and dalvik, it's ok for 3 weeks, and boom, reboot.
New Edit: I found this thread with V3 version, will try it soon:

- No more crash when reading /sys/bus/nvhost/drivers/tegradc/tegradc.0/nvdps
Ramdisk features:
- insecure adbd
- init.d support
- does not set lcd_density (dpi unlocked)
in the -data2sd versions only:
- mount points modified for the Data2SD mod (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1962507)
New in 3.1.10that4 (2013-03-05):
- auto-detection of data2sd - if the microSD card is inserted at boot time and it contains a second partition, it is assumed to be a data2sd partition and mounted as /data. Otherwise, the system is booted with /data mounted to internal storage as usual.
New in 3.1.10-10.4.4.25-that5 (2013-03-24):
- moved auto-detection of data2sd to scripts in /system for easier customization (read the release post for details)

This kernel (and all others in this thread) is compatible with stock-based (Asus Android 4.1.1) ROMs that set lcd_density (dpi) in build.prop - in other words, this is the preferred kernel for CleanROM Inheritance.

(You might now ask "where is the overclocked version"? I decided to start with a known stable base for my first release - if this one turns out to work fine, the oc build comes next.) - for overclocked version, read next post!

Overclocked!
This is 3.1.10that1-oc - the version with clemsyn's overclocking patches. Please note that I only extracted and then applied his patches to the current kernel and typed "make" - I don't understand all the scary frequency and voltage tables, and I don't know how it works in detail. However I got up to 7130 points in this benchmark thingy, and system tuner shows 1.8 GHz, so it appears to do something.
Please note that this is only the kernel, and it does not contain clemsyn's changes for the Asus performance modes. As you may know, the 3 Asus performance modes are activated by running shell scripts in /system/etc named cpu1.sh to cpu3.sh. Clemsyn's kernels replace balanced mode with performance mode, and performance mode with the new overclocked mode. This kernel does not do that, it leaves your modes as they were!
Depending which kernel you were using before, the following will happen:
- Coming from a stock kernel, you keep balanced and performance modes, and the extra overclocking mode can only be activated by executing /system/etc/cpu4.sh. If you want, you can rename cpu2.sh to cpu2_original.sh, cpu3.sh to cpu2.sh and cpu4.sh to cpu3.sh, then you have performance mode as default instead of balanced, and overclocking mode if you activate "performance mode" - same as clemsyn's. If this is too complicated for you, you can either flash clemsyn's kernel directly before this one, or wait until someone repackages this kernel.
- Coming from clemsyn's kernel, performance modes should work as before. Please don't ask me which specific variant of clemsyn's kernels this one is comparable with - he released only one source package, which I used, but many different kernel binaries. I can't recreate other versions without clemsyn releasing sources for those specific versions.
zImage (kernel binary) features:
- all of the above
- Overclocking and voltage control
Ramdisk features:
- same as non-overclocked version
Additional credits:
- clemsyn, for his amazing overclocking kernel

Excellent work my friend! Will test it out later. :cyclops:

Excellent work my friend...dream comes true. BTW, currently I'm on data2sd, is it possible to make one for data2sd? Thanks.

(Note: This is 100% untested - if you tell me that it works, I'll add it to the OP. ) Now tested by buhohitr, thanks. :good:
Same zImage with the ramdisk from the previous data2sd kernel.
Note: this is not a data2sd installer, it's only a new kernel to drop into an existing data2sd installation.

Working well so far! :good:

Great news! Your new data2sd kernel is working very well. All data mountings are correct and fsync is woring wonder! Great job!
1. When PC hook up to device, on PC I see:
a. Internal - ext4 parition on microsdcard
b. Micro - Fat32 partition on microsdcard
c.-SD - Dock SDcard.
2. Disabled fysnc - working wonder, gain 600+ on Quadrant.
I have been using Sandisk Extreme Pro class 10 (95mb/s) and it's very stable (Did not work before with Clemsyn Kernel). With fsync disabled, a gain of 600 point bring Quadrant to 6639 from 5995/6005 without OC. The tablet is super smooth and fast with fsync disabled. I can see the apps are launching faster from stand still, if they already in memory, BAM it's there. Browser also faster, Gallery loaded much faster and I got over 2 thousand pictures. In summary, I'm impress and very happy....just couldn't wait for the OverClock version.. Again, great job _that!! :good::good:
Edit: I will be running this for a week to see if any issue with journaling and fsync disabled on this super fast sdcard. Will report back.
Update 1/30 @ 10:30pm est - After 4 1/2 hrs, this tablet stills running smooth and quick. Very happy with this kind of performance, probably the best to date. What I'm really exciting about is, there still more room for performance....when "_that Overclock kernel" arrived..

tried this on PA, and I get a message, upgrading apps, but then it hangs. Is this to work on all ROMS, or just stock?

Should be just for stock Cleanrom.

Tried this fantastic kernel in the last 5 hours and it is smooth, had no problem at all. Epic Citadel reports a benchmark of 38.9 fps.
Can't wait to try the OC version of it. Also waiting for the SanDisk Extreme to arrive from Amazon to try out the data2sd too.

Re: [KERNEL] 3.1.10that1 ★ 10.4.4.25 + fsync + ISO9660 + CIFS
I can confirm that data2sd version is working great. Waiting for the OC version. Good job!

So how does one disable fsync?
Flash this kernel, reflash ROM with no kernel option and fsync disable checked, or?

Just flashed this kernel. I have disabled fsync and my tablet has sped up. Thanks for this kernel _that.

1. Reflash CleanRom 3.2.1
2. Disable Fsync during the installer
3. Reboot
4. Wipe Devlink Cache/Cache
5. Flash this kernel
This should disable fsync with this kernel.

Hello i just want to say thanks, i am using the data2sd version without any problem.

If someone is interested in the kernel changes between 10.4.4.23 and 10.4.4.25 can follow this link to my github.
Looks like Asus has made some changes in the mmc management:
Code:
/*
* SD Workaround: downgrade frequency for seldom specific sdcard
*/

@_that I hope its ok that I have used your config because I dont have Cleanrom installed atm and so I cant pull the config.gz

Sure, that's the point of me publishing all the sources as detailed as I can - take whatever you can use.
By the way, there is a nice script in the kernel sources that extracts a config from a zImage, it's in scripts/extract-ikconfig and you pass a zImage to it as a parameter. Maybe that's useful for you one day.

Excellent. Note I mod Clemsyn's cpu.sh files so that balanced mode is balanced mode which theorectically means I can now make a 1.3 1.8 and a 1.5 1.8 version of this
Off to do some testing.
Looks like Kernel Installer 1.8 is in the making.

I can confirm that oc data2sd version is working great.
Thanks great job :good:
