I am starting up my own route of android development working with team acid and AntonX to make sure all the best features work in AOSP roms like MIUI, and in the future AOSP and BML CM7 if we make them . This is a BML kernel so don't flash it if you are running the MTD CM7. It is CWM flashable or you can extract the zImage and flash with heimdall.
This is a branch of AntonX's kernel so UV/OC, voodoo sound, and BLN are all there.
Do not flash this on a stock rom, this includes Valhalla black, AOSP style (no it's not AOSP), or anything that isn't MIUI, Cyanogenmod (BML), or AOSP (if we ever get it ).
Changes to come:
Currently working with initramfs to remove voodoo lagfix, speed up boot time, and add touch recovery.
Credits:
AntonX, this is a branch of his kernel
Team Acid, for putting up with me and their kernel work
Bhundven, for being the best dev ever, his original kernel, new initramfs and all his work fixing CM7, and his always helping me out when I'm in a pinch
m4xm4n and Bhundven for the vibrate fix on CM7 ported to BML
Changelog:
Release one:
Branched from AntonX kernel. Adds vibrate functionality to AOSP

Click to collapse
Release two:
Updated source base to AntonX's 1.1.0 kernel.
Disabled some debugging.
Implements new initramfs for faster boot. (Thanks Bhundven!!)
Should be faster and more stable.
Now comes in OC and non-OC flavors.

If it's BML it's worth a shot. Let me know if it works for you .
Just a general reminder: there is a "Thanks" button for a reason. Please do not post just to say thanks, just hit the button.
I noticed you thanked m4xm4n for the "vibrate fix on CM7 ported to BML" will this fix the miui weak vibration bug?

The "vibrate fix" aka the switch to aries-vibrator from vibetonz was actually bhundven. I just dinked around with vibetonz until I yelled "f**k it" and flipped over the table. Bryan then made the switch.

hampsterblade,
You did the wrong thing on github, you have lost all history for the project. If for any reason my project is gone, nobody will know what have been modified. You should have forked. It's not too late, you haven't made too many changes. I did exactly the same mistake originally, but FBis helped me to recover.
And why have you uploaded the whole toolchain??? You are not going to make changes to it, are you?

I'll be honest, I'm not sure if it's the kernel or cm7, but the bottom line is that adding superclock 4×2 results in super laggy adw ex. I wish I would have added it prior to flashing the kernel, but who would've imagined that a widget would cause a collapse like this. Additionally, the unlock animations do not work. Fyi.
Feel free to chime in.

Here is the discussion on that kernel where you can post your Question. They also have official forums which you ask Questions if you think the kernel is the issue.

The point that people are making is that this is Android Development. Not Q&A. The Evo forums also have dedicated Q&A sections.
As to your problem, flash a different kernel? Or wipe /system and /boot and reflash CM7 + GApps to get CM7 stock kernel back and a clean CM7 install while preserving /data (as in, don't wipe data).
Edit: To the guy thinking this is Eclair kernel... the kernel version is 0.2.1. For some reason people like to call it 2.1. It's a 2.6.37 based Gingerbread kernel.

I can appreciate that, and I suppose I should've posted in the nosbc SZ thread. Sorry about that.
Hi everyone, this kernel aims to be fast and stable and have good battery life. It should be what the infuse comes with.
Latest features:
- Compiled using codesourcery 2009 (will be updated to 2010 which brings optimizations and speed)
This kernel has/is:
- Works on all voodoo enabled roms
- Currently not included neldar's BackLightNotification 2.3
- Includes supercurio's Voodoo Sound v9
- Includes jhash3 function for performance and reliability
- Adjusted kernel HZ value to improve smoothness
- Properly working TinyRCU for better speed and efficiency
- Patched lowmemorykiller for compatibility with TinyRCU
- Modified Initramfs for performance
- BFQ is the default i/o scheduler (other i/o schedulers will be tested as time goes by)
If your keeping up with h8rift's rom Refuse(1.4 and up) then your using my kernel
Everyone else, the zip is for flashing via cwm and the tar is to flash via odin.
Note: I do own a infuse as of 06/17 but if you'd like to donate because of
my work, feel free to do so and thanks
SOURCE is UPDATED:
https://github.com/razor950/Defuse-Kernel
Changelog
V1.0
- Implemented tinyrcu and lowmemkiller
- Implemented neldar's BackLightNotification 2.3
- Kernel HZ is at 500
V1.1
- fixed video memory bug (this fixed ffc / video decoding)
V1.2
- implemented supercurio's voodoo sound
- added jhash3 function for speed and better reliability
v1.3
- fixed BLN issues, it can be turned off now within the bln controls
v1.4
- added ext4 patchset (LinuxBozo)
- implemented BFQ I/O scheduler and set it as default (LinuxBozo)
- minor compiler flags for optimization (still need to add to this)
- modified initramfs tweaked for performance (LinuxBozo)
- BLN is off for now due to it being too random with bugs (no eta when it'll be back)
Nice. This is beginning to look like a Sammy forum.

Do you need enough donations to buy an Infuse before you start working on CM7, or are you gonna use some witchcraft to port it over without even having one if people donate some money to you?
If you need an Infuse and everyone starts to donate, I'd jump in to and donate some money. Or if you're able to do it with just donations and no phone, I may donate as well.
I do not ask for money to keep development going....
Donations would go straight to buying a infuse but I might be willing to just go out giving a certain amount of donations and I am not sure because I've never really asked to donate...
just to double check, is BLN working?

Can't tell if I got it but benchmark is stuck at video decoding and won't move? Can someone tell me how to see if it flashed ok?

I also got stuck at Video Decoding in the benchmark. Outside of that everything seems to be working fine so far.

using what benchmark app? quadrant is laughably useless on these device. seriously, run it several times in a row -- your scores will vary wildly. That is the definition of unreliable. The app may as well be a random number generator at this point. Also, it never bothers to use the second core.

It's tested on CM7. The MIUI ROMs at this point (and really a shocking number of other 'AOSP' ROMs) are drawing far too heavily on Sense to work well with this kernel (or the kernel packed in CM7 for that matter).

If you don't mind me asking, how is it that the 'UXCLF5' Kernel works with the AT&T 'Skyrocket' variant phones? I thought the Rogers & AT&T phones were slightly different, just as the international version's hardware is different. Correct me if I'm wrong!
This is all new to me as I'm just beginning to understand what's going on here, and I'm very interested in delving into custom ROM development.

Can someone conform that bootanimation are working. I can't make them work. I make ton of them and have knowlage how to but on unsecure or stock no go on bootanimation.
Sean, how difficult would it be to put certain working files from Kernels like CymBaline (or the source it was built from) and inject them into a kernel like the one in this thread? Basically fixing the issues that still exist in the skyrocket kernels. Would having the source code from the Cymbaline build, but not from the syrocket build be an opstical? I am just wondering if it could be done. TIA.

Also, Don't be suprised if your device freezes and then reboots, it is WIP (Work in Progress). I would test this if my device hasn't bricked. So you can test it. It won't permemetly brick your device.

Iv'e got the kernel source 3.0.8 without kexec I just need to add kexec
Once we get a kernel with kexec, we can kexec custom kernels.

Right now you can only try fully stock kernels with kexec, use the link I provided above, it works, I have done it with a stock compiled kernel. Yes we need to use the one for the RAZR, not the bionic.
This will work with 2.x or 3.x kernels... but since we have ICS, trying to boot a 2.x kernel will get you in trouble.
By the way which 3.0.8 kernel are you using? It is VERY, VERY important to use the moto mb865 source to be able to add the kexec support, for now.

By the way which 3.0.8 kernel are you using? It is VERY, VERY important to use the moto mb865 source to be able to add the kexec support, for now.

I can't find a MB865 kernel source with kexec and 3.x. I don't know about the moto sourceforge they all seem GB (2.6.x)
So i just used a kernel that is OMAP and is ASOP.

Yeah that is the issue. Right now, you can only boot stock kernels with kexec on our device, and a few others seem to have this same issue. Yes, moto has not released the source for our phone for ICS yet.
As for finding a kernel with kexec support in it, I would go take a look at hascode's githib, he has the stuff up there, that you might be able to modify, but the kernel I think he has is for cm9 and it is not booting on our device quite yet.
You should look for at least the me865 ICS source and try and throw the kexec parts into it, from hascodes github.
Try the me865 soruce from here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/me865.motorola/files/ME865/
There might be an ICS version in there, to take a shot at, for now.
And this kid is only 14. Amazing!

posting something for another phone without any modification would be the opposite of amazing...
Stuff like this should be in the general section.its an ideal,not a development.

Why do ya think it's WIP, and not Q (Question)? It's because of we just need a kernel that we can combine the drivers and kexec with.
Cheers!!!

But you also have to use the RIGHT binary version of kexec (the boinic one will not work for our phone). I hope you know that I was part of the team that worked on the OG of kexec with kohlk and mbm and those guys, and the one posted in the razr form that I linked in this thread works for our phone too, I made sure of that, so that there was no need for a razr version and an a2 version...

I just need my replacment phone back. I'm lost without it. I can't test anything without an Atrix 2 . I should get it Friday .

Cool!!!
I promise that kexec works. I have tested it with both a true moto a2 kernel and the cm7 kernel that I compiled back in the 2.3.6 days.
I am not 100% on an ICS kernel, though since we don't have source yet, and I am not sure if the aosp kernel will work or not, as I had a lot of trouble getting the cm7 kernel working back in april and may.
