[ROM] CyanogenMod 10 (qwerty) - Samsung Galaxy SL i9003

Here is where I'll post my CM10 builds.
qwerty was the name I gave to the kernel I used to post here before I started to post entire ROM builds.
This is based on the amazing dhiru1602's work, big thanks to him.
Dowloads:
Google Drive
You can't resume downloads with GDrive. If you prefer other hosting websites, you can use the direct link of my builds to remotely upload them somewhere else. Dev-Host allows you to do that and allows you to resume downloads. Feel free to mirror my files.

Misc changes/instruction to build this ROM. The patches not available on Github are here.
Please, read carefully the whole post.
There are two different versions of the ROM. One is using the kernel 3.0, the other the kernel 2.6.35. Read the known bugs and flash the one you prefer.
I did some changes to this CM-10, I updated it and added some extra features such as inbuilt SD swap (Settings > Storage > Use external storage), possibility to show the navbar without rebooting (System > Power menu > navbar and enable it from the power menu. It doesn't work perfectly, keyboards and notification panel can go behind it) possibility to limit the number of background apps and other handy options.
I also backported some performance patches and misc fixes from CM-10.1 and some apps: Trebuchet, Apollo, Gallery (camera), Clock, CM File Manager and Superuser.

Known bugs:
Backlight issues for some users: the screen backlight will automatically turn on when it's supposed to stay off.
Audio/video sync issues while recording videos at 720p, along with frames and fps drops.
Rare reboots. If they happen, post the content of /proc/last_kmsg.
CyanogenMod 10 - kernel 2.6.35
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Known bugs:
Missing HW composer.
WiFi doesn't work perfectly. Some users report continuous disconnections or problems connecting to netowroks. Try to use a static IP in case you have problems.
Native USB tethering doesn't work. Use a third party app (tested: android-wired-tether).
The inbuilt Wi-Fi hotspot can be used only once, sometimes more, and after that a reboot is required to use it again. You can though use this modified version of android-wifi-tether, reboots are not required.
HD video playback suffer low framerate issues.
The 720p preview framerate is intentionally limited, especially while recording. The recorded video is (almost) fine.
There are sometimes lags in the preview while video calling with the front facing camera
Poor bluetooth headset sound quality. (I don't own a bluetooth headset, hence it's very hard for me to find the problem) - flash libaudio-BT-NR-fix.zip.
Release changes:
Code:
Look for the name of the zip in this thread to find its changes. This is no more updated.
...
20130425: Camera HAL updates. Removed background apps limit. Use the modified dev settings to choose the number of background apps.
20130416: Camera HAL: experimental changes
20130407: Partially working WiFi tethering (perfect with [I]android-wifi-tether[/I])
20130402: Several kernel changes, UMS regression fixed
20130329: Video pillarbox. Regression: UMS requires adb
20130326: Optimized build
20130320: SSID fetch fixed
20130319: Better wpa_supplicant support: WiFi scan and disconnecting bug fixed. Missing WiFi signal intensity fixed.

Stock ROM / CM7 / CM9 / CM10 Alpha3 (or older):
dhiru1602 said:
IMPORTANT! READ BEFORE FLASHING THIS RELEASE!
This ROM will wipe data due to different partitioning. The device would reboot while flashing and resume again.
Once on this ROM, the most effective way of going back to any other ROM would be to repartition from Odin.
While converting the filesystem, your efs that has your IMEI is backed up to /emmc/backup/efs. Keep a backup on your PC just in case.
Incase if you don't get a network signal, check if your IMEI and Baseband are proper. If not, go back to stock and try again.
Do NOT use Odin to flash Modems. Due to different partitions, Odin will screw up your existing MTD setup.

Stock ROMs only: Make sure you have CWM. Flash a custom kernel otherwise
Download the zip of the ROM and save it into the internal SD or the external one (*)
Reboot to recovery
Flash the downloaded zip
optional: Flash mobiledata_off.zip if you want mobile data off during the first setup
optional: Flash Google Apps (for Android 4.1.2, many things will break otherwise)
Reboot
(*) While flashing, the device will reboot and you'll see a different recovery after that.
If the zip is inside the internal SD, the flash will re-start automatically after the reboot.
If the zip is inside the external SD, you have to re-start the flash manually re-flashing the zip. If you don't do that, only recovery will work until you flash the zip.
CyanogenMod 10:
Download the zip of the ROM and save it into the external SD or the internal memory
Reboot to recovery
Flash the downloaded zip
optional: Flash Google Apps (if you have already flashed them once, you can skip this step)
Reboot
Data wipes are mandatory only if you are not using CM10, it's not required otherwise.
It doesn't matter if you are going to flash the version with the 3.0 kernel and you are using the other, it should work.
CyanogenMod 10.1/10.2:
Download the zip of the ROM and save it into the external SD or the internal memory
Reboot to recovery
Flash the downloaded zip
optional: Flash Google Apps
optional: Flash mobiledata_off.zip if you want mobile data off during the first setup
Wipe data/factory reset
Reboot
Downgrades are probably not expected, that's why you need to do a data wipe.
Important note:
The modem is always replaced with XXLE4 modem when this ROM is flashed over a stock ROM, CM9 or CM10 Alpha 3 (or older).
You can easly replace it. Take modem.bin from the tar of a stock ROM, place it in /radio overwriting the existing one and reboot. This is required only once, modem.bin is never replaced while updating the ROM. I9003L must do this, I9003 users can use the included modem, but it's better to use the modem made for your region.

The latest versions of Instagram are not working due to a problem with related to the GPU binary blob. Instagram 3.4.0 is the latest working version. Probably every device using the same binary blob is affected (Optimus Black for example). You can download a modified version from here that will allow you to login.
The latest versions of Skype do not work properly, the preview is stretched and wrongly rotated. Use Skype 2.9.0.315 or see this post.
LEDs are not supposed to blink when a new notifcation arrives. They'll light up, but they won't blink. Making them blink would prevent the device from entering deep sleep.
(3.0 kernel) Once the battery is fully charged, it will start discharging and it won't be recharged automatically if at least 90 minutes have passed. You can forcefully charge it by unpluggin and re-pluggin the cable. This is an intended behaviour, charging the battery continuosly to keep it at 100% can shortnmyself toer its life.
This ROM allows you to force two apps to stay in memory. See this post for more info.
I made possible to toggle the navbar state directly from the powermenu modifying the existing expanded desktop feature, however it's not working perfectly. The navbar can go over the notification panel and the keyboard while in landscape. However it works as expected if you enable the navbar by setting qemu.hw.mainkeys or modding framework-res.apk. I have no intention to "fix" this as I can't see the utility of the navbar on our device.
(3.0 kernel) For some reason when the screen is turned off during a call by the proximity sensor, if enough time has passed it won't be turned on automatically. You can wake the screen immediately by pressing the home button or the power button or you can increase the backlight timeout from the settings. That will make the proximity sensor work for longer (I'm not sure, but I think the proximity sensor stops working exactly after this timer has expired). this problem is maybe solved.
FM radio is available through third party apps, such as Spirit FM
"Native" 3G video calls are not supported and most likely never will, flash a stock ROM if you need them. GTalk, Skype and all the other apps works though.
(3.0 kernel) if you lost your IMEI, WiFi will probably not work. See this for more info and instructions to fix the problem. No more required.
(3.0 kernel) part of the RAM is reserved. You'll see that we have 442MB 454MB of RAM, that's fine, the missing RAM is not really lost, it's still used.
If the keyboard keeps crashing, you probably flash the wrong gapps.
The magnetic sensor sometimes reports wrong values. When it happens, the field intensity is very high. This was observed with the 3.0 kernel, but probably the same thing happens with a 2.6.35 kernel.
(3.0 kernel) my SD card (it's probably a cheap SD card) is not working properly and I often have corrupted files. It worked fine with the kernel 2.6.35, so if you often have corrupted files, try a different SD card or use the old kernel.
Weird activity in standby? Read this.
(3.0 kernel) 1.2GHz is not stable on every device. I had to disable SmartReflex because it was causing crashes on my device. This means that the voltage of the OPP5 is locked the value I chose is not universally good. I'd prefer not to increase it more, if you have too many reboots, don't overclock. WARNING: don't tick "Set on boot" unless you are sure your device can handle OC. f you are stuck in a bootloop, flash disable_opp5.zip.
In case the max frequency is 1.1GHz, then SmartReflex is enabled and the option in DeviceParts has no effect.
If you find a bug not listed, please report.
Post as many informations as possible, ways to reproduce it and logs.
You can easily grab (almost) all the logs I need by pressing vol down, vol up and power at the same time ("recent" builds only). LEDs will blink and /storage/sdcard0/logs_qwerty/log_DATE.txt will be created. In case the memory is not ready, you'll find the files in /data/logs_qwerty/log_DATE.txt.
The standalone kernel is no more mantained. Flash the ROM instead.

Kernel - 2.6.35
Click to expand...

After months of use, I decided to publicly release my kernel.
This is for CyanogenMod 10 Alpha 4.
It's based on the GB kernel sources released by Samsung (GT-I9003_GB_Opensource_Update2.zip), modified (mostly by dhiru1602) to work with CyanogenMod.
Because of my lack of fantasy I named it "qwerty". It sucks, but at least it's easy to remember.
Main features:
XDA_Bam's code and fixes:
◦ 5 OPPs
◦ Booting at stock speed (1000MHz)
◦ Slight undervolt (3%) on all OPPs
◦ Home button double presses fix
◦ Lowered processor transition latency
◦ Stable Bluetooth connections
Modified light sensor driver: [1]
◦ Disabled hardcoded filter. CyanogenMod has its own filters, enable it from the settings.
◦ Dynamic polling interval
◦ Code cleanup
Modified battery driver [2]
CPU Governors:
◦ Ondemand (default)
◦ SmartassV2
◦ Conservative
◦ Performance
I/O schedulers:
◦ Deadline (default)
◦ Noop
◦ CFQ
◦ SIO
Toggable FSync
Fixed always ON LEDs bug when used for notifications only
VPN networks support (not tested)
Slightly increased touchkeys sensitivity (from 45 to 35)
Other minor changes and optimizations

clean-qwerty-cm-10-galaxysl.zip: restore zip with dhiru1602's kernel
UPDATE: USB composite is still a bit messed up. Windows can't recognize the phone when RNDIS (USB tethering) is enabled (working fine with Linux).
If you need RNDIS, flash this kernel release or the previous one.

Notes:
[1] I made it compatible with the prebuilt libsensor included in CyanogenMod, but I'm using my own libsensor and maybe I didn't test this kernel with the stock one for long enough. I hence added my libsensor, just in case. If you want to restore the original libsensor, simply remove /system/lib/hw/sensors.latona.so.
[2] You can modify "samsung-battery" wakelock length through DeviceParts. By default it behaves like the original module. If you see "Android System" or anything else eating your battery with no reasons, increase the delay or restore the default one.
[3] DeviceParts.apk (System Settings > Advanced) is included because of some additional settings useful when this kernel is used. I'm not a Java dev, so it's probably not perfect, but it works quite well. I took pieces of code from other devices (mostly Crespo, Aries and S2). The source code is available, suggestions are more than welcome.
[4] Power HAL will make the CPU jump to a certain frequency (I set 800MHz) whenever Android requires it (when the screen is touched for example). Power HAL will also limit the max freq to 800MHz (my choice, not too fast, not too slow) when the screen is off. You can change the boosting freq from my custom DeviceParts. CPU frequencies changes (See XDA_Bam's thread for more info about variable overclocking) are not expected. If you don't like it, simply remove /system/lib/hw/power.latona.so. Few more lines about power HAL here.
[5] hostap and tiap_drv.ko make WiFi tethering possible using this modified version of android-wifi-tether.
Special thanks to dhiru1602 and XDA_Bam for their awesome work.

Wow. I'll flash it for sure.
Thanks for sharing.
Update:
Flashed and it works just fine. Just changed max freq to 1200.
Deviceparts looks very professional as well.

Hats off to u buddy. Also kernel name is really good buddy. Dont worry about that
Suggestion : Can u add SIO schedular? For me smartassv2 (thanks for adding it) with sio works really well.
Request : Sorry but I am not exactly getting power HAL description. Can u please explain me a little bit.

it's just what I need ^^
Thank you for taking us solicitous

Thank you for the kernel...I'm on Dhiru's CM10 A4 with Alpha 11 kernel, now switched to this kernel, I do not find "DeviceParts" installed..is it normal?

just added a tab (specific options) available in the parameter menu

As you may know, what a CPU governor does is to decide when the current frequency needs to be changes and what's the target frequency. These decisions mostly depend on the current CPU load: high load -> high freq.
What power HAL does is to require a high CPU frequency regardless the load. This mostly happen on user interactions (ie: the screen is touched)
Its aim is to provide a smoother experience, because basically it's trying to predict high CPU loads. The downside is that sometimes the CPU is boosted for no reasons.
For example if you touch the screen to scroll a page, when the scrolling starts the CPU is already at a high freq and there won't be probably initial lags. If you tap the screen, just for the sake of it, the CPU will be boosted for no reasons (by default a CPU boost will last 500ms).
I think it's part of the project butter.
The only governor with a boostpulse interface between those included is ondemand. The other governors included most likely will never have a boostpulse interface.
Try to use ondemand with and without power HAL. You can "see" the difference with CPU Spy. 800MHz will be used a lot when power HAL is present (you can change the boosting freq from the advanced settings).
By the way I updated ondemand, it's faster than in the original kernel.

Try to use Deadline for a while. I tweaked it to better perform on flash devices. Anyway I don't think that changing I/O scheduler will make a tangible difference.

All our kernels based on the sources released by Samsung use a prebuilt module for WiFi. Dhiru tried to use the opensource driver, but it didn't work.
This prebuilt module, taken from our stock ROMs, requires a prebuilt and modified wpa_supplicant which is not completely compatible with Android 4.0+ (Samsung didn't give us the changes required to make the opensource one work). To make things worse there's dhcpcd, we have to use an old version because of the old wpa_supplicant.
In other words: it sucks.
With some access point there are no issues, with others WiFi works, but not so well and with some others nothing works.
EDIT:
Now that I think of that, there are maybe some differences when this kernel is used. I took the prebuilt module from XXLE4 instead of taking it from EDIT2: XXKPM
The warning message I get the first time I turn WiFi (maybe it happens even with the other module, I didn't try it) on suggests me that something was changed in XXLE4, but I don't know if this is a good thing or not.

I'm starting to think the problem is CWM. For now only you and spacebar2011 had issues. I will PM you something when I'll have some free time to find the problem. If nothing works, I'll just give you the tars to flash the kernel with ODIN as I did with my signal fix kernel.
@Hetalk
Thanks for trying to help, but he is a peculiar situation. The problem is not the updated blob or a wrong flash, he (and spacebar2011) tried to flash my signal fix kernel several times over a clean CM10 with no success.

Dunno, battery life had never been exceptional for me. If you use your phone a lot, any kernel will give you a bad battery life. You can see differences only if you keep your phone most of the time in idle, with mobile data disabled.

Thanks for ur simplified explaination This means in order to bring smoothness ondemand will keep most of the time freq at 800 mhz (as per ur settings). But definitely its going to affect battery life as just for a simple touch freq will raise to 800 mhz directly. Anyway overall it depends on user who want battery life or smoothness
I have used ur fixed signal kernel for longer time. That kernel really works very well when we use phone (even with 2g net). But surprisingly in deep sleep mode (means with gsm network on on and 2g net off) then there is very heavy battery drain For me its 25% battery drain in 9hr deep sleep mode. But if we keep our phone phone offline in deep sleep mode then it will drain battery just 4% in 9hr. Strange...!!!
I will monitor tonight also with that signal fix kernel. and final tomorrow I will flash this kernel on clean cm10a4 so that I can compare both ur kernels
EDIT : My doubt was right. Your previous signal fix kernel works really good. Yesterday night tested and I found that lost 3% battery in 8 hrs standby. Means my previous 25% battery loss was not a correct observation. Anyway now I will flash this kernel and tell u the results

Re: [KERNEL][CM10] qwerty [08/02/13]
Well, its obvious that keeping a continuous connection with the network costs battery and that when we are connected with mobile network it will eventually change between signal modes (2g, HSDPA, edge, etc) and that also costs battery.
That's why mobile network use to consume more battery than WiFi or offline.

Really nice Kernel with good combination of battery and performance and many good tweaks

[Q] CYANOGEN 10 V6 Kernel + ROM Sleep Wake-up WiFi Crash Issue

Hello. I have been a "lurker" on these boards for roughly 2 years. I have rooted, flashed and installed custom ROMs, bootloaders, recoveries and radios on the following devices:
Samsung Vibrant (original samsung galaxy S)
HTC Amaze (a.k.a Ruby.... wire trick and all)
ASUS Transformer 1 WiFi Only model ( a.k.a TF101)
Anyway, I am posting for the first time. Because of this, I cannot post directly to the development thread involved with my issue. Never the less, here it is:
I am running RaymanFX's JellyBean Cyanogen 10 V6 (STABLE) with Rayman's custom kernel on my TF101. I was running a Revolver ICS ROM prior to installing this JB ROM.... or Revolution HD, I can't remember... anyway
I am having an issue with the TF101 either 1) involuntary reboot or 2) freeze/lockup/crashing after wakeup from sleep mode and complete loss of WiFi radio.
Yes, I have extensively searched the development threads and I found posts related to this one, but none of them solve the issue and I also noticed a few people have this same problem but have no known solution.
I have wiped and done clean install of this ROM several times always with the same result. I also flashed LiquidSmooth (Rayman worked on this ROM and his kernel is cross compatible) to see if it was ROM-related and discovered it is not.... this is a kernel issue. My wipe procedure is:
Factory Reset (cache/data wipe)
Run Superwipe script for TF101 from Android Revolution HD thread (format cache, data, etc...)
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Flash ROM
Reboot
Flash GAPPS (latest version linked on Cyanogen thread from goo.im)
Reboot
Everything runs buttery smooth and flawlessly, HOWEVER.... "Wake on WiFi fix" solution on RaymanFX's post does not work for me.
The "fix" is to designate WiFi Always On during Sleep. Changing this setting doesn't stick... WiFi still sleeps even with this setting corrected. With one caveat... Changing the setting to "Never" and then modifying WiFi Idle Timeout to "3 hours" and then changing the Keep WiFi on During Sleep to "Always" will delay the WiFi from idling out temporarily unless the tablet is in Sleep longer than 3 hours.... at which it idles anyway and causes a crash or reboot.
Secondly, I have discovered that the CPU Frequency setting under Performance could be part of the reason it crashes. I have "Set on Boot" enabled. Setting a CPU Frequency, regardless of governor, above 1408 Mhz WILL cause tablet to lockup/crash upon wakeup from Sleep as the processor jumps to maximum set frequency. If maximum frequency is set to 1408, it will stutter and lag out the system forcing it to become unresponsive to touch commands but "stable" and useable.... albeit very laggy. If the Max Frequency is set to 1200, it will NOT reduce the maximum frequency set for the CPU unless tablet is put into Sleep mode and then woken again.... it will constantly cycle between the "old" maximum frequency setting and the "new" maximum frequency setting (observed by monitoring the frequency in the Performance setting screen after changing from a higher max frequency to a lower max frequency and staying on the menu screen and allowing the CPU to "settle" without any user input).
I really like this ROM and I hate to give up on it, so I'm hoping someone out there will have an idea about what I can do to make this work... or at least recommend a different kernel that will work with this ROM and also has a way to change CPU frequencies and governers.
Any ideas?

Emmanuel U said:
Ugh... (oh how I've dreaded making this post, go grab the kleenex or you can just skip the next paragraph and get to the jist)
So my (previously used and "refurbished") myTouch is slowly becoming useless. So I had originally dropped it onto concrete (a month and a half ago) in which I didn't notice any visual/cosmetic damages so I assumed I was fine. However promptly after attempting to open my keyboard I notice my phone would freeze for 5 or seconds before registering the hardware event and rotating screen etc. It eventually began to progress to display weird digital artifacts at random times during use (which would cause annoying lag). Then one faithful day, the 'lag' was getting to excessive while I urgently needed to use my phone so I battery pulled in hopes of rebooting the phone as quickly as possible to use...but just my luck; the phone turned back on but the display didn't (in the sense that I felt the phone vibrate when I initially pressed the power button alongside seeing the small red light in my trackpad light up). So after a stressful day of trying to play with my phone in fastboot/adb I managed to turn my display back on. But now the display failure has progressed to the point of my phone only being usable when they keyboard is pulled out around 2/5 of the way and kept in that position....all other positions render the display useless. This makes it fairly difficult to use the device seeing as it has to be kept in this abnormal position to function.
Jist: I ordered a temporary Galaxy S2 off ebay until my contract ends so that I can switch carriers all together. So I won't really be able dev on this phone like I use to with it being broken. However I'll try to still occasionally update my roms as far as upstream...but any bug fixes at this point sadly won't be able to come from me as debugging on this phone is tedious. But keep in mind I'll still poke my head periodically in this forum and see if my 2 cents is needed anywhere. But don't expect anything more from me then 'upstream updates'.
Good day guys and remember to have a firm grip on your phone at all times.
Update:
First of all I'm quite flattered to all the people who offered up a MT4GS to giveaway, such a generous community we have here :good:
However this will not be necessary as I still have a slightly working MT4GS...the only reason I got a GSII is because it's not functional enough to be my daily driver due to the position it has to be held in to function. Nevertheless I can still develop on the phone (which was why I stated I was planning on updating this rom soon). But I'd like to say thanks again directly to @BaconPancakes and @Ziida and anyone else who may have been planning to offer me a a MT4GS...but it won't be needed.

Could you kindly list the governors this kernel? Also, am i right to say that this kernel contains all the features found in scverhagen's kernel? Thanks in advance.
This kernel is pretty good in performance and behaves better than scverhagen's but wifi isn't working properly.

At times, it wouldn't turn on or the speeds be very slow. Reboot helps though.
But I like the kernel and how it works with option "disable HW overlays" unchecked. And video playbacks aren't glitchy. Also, it gave me about 5fps gain in NenaMark2 gbench.
Update, enjoy (and report feedback)
Thanks for the update!
FPS in NenaMark2 seems to be lower even on max 1.7Ghz. Still testing the kernel.

also you said scores are lower, but lower compared to what?
Build 005 broke my camera viewfinder.
The picture is fine after you snap the photo but green/garbled picture while looking before taking the shot (if that makes sense)
I tried screenshotting but the picture was also fine!
Might be just me, I wiped Dalvik after the flash though.

I was getting around 48 fps on SilverL's and Tbalden's AOKP and CM stock kernels (scverhagen's base I think), now it's less than 42fps on v.004. 43-44fps on v.005.
The test is NenaMark2.
But overall the kernel seems to be smooth and nice.

This is to be expected. These two governors seem to be doing what they're supposed to. They not made for benchmarks. The way mine is currently they have a middle ground frequency which i assume you may be hitting most of the time while this is going.
These 2 governors also take gpu into consideration and adjust their speeds accordingly. If it doesnt need both cpu and gpu to process, the cpu will actively throttle and not stay maxed which possibly results in the fluctuating scores. I get 42 fps on mine...(currently not updated to latest). You probably just ended up running the tests at times where something else was keeping the cpu at a higher frequency.
When I use the performance governor I get 52 but that governor keeps the cpu at the current max frequency (mine being 1080).
OpenGL scores will fluctuate with these governors... its nothing to worry about. I ran the test too, it doesnt seem to be as intensive as any game would be, doesnt require user interaction(something which also drives the cpu frequency throttling in games), so I wouldnt worry about these benchmarks. If you want to benchmark you should really be using performance as the stepping in any other governor will always vary based on load, and this tests puts more load on the gpu allowing the cpu to change frequencies as it sees fit.
Should mention my intellidemand score is 48 and badass is 42.

Thanks for exlaining the things about these governors. But I've noticed that Badass keeps the max frequency only up to 908Mhz even if the load is 100% unlike intellidemand. That's weird. BTW I've tried the 1.7 performance and got only 48 without any background tasks.
i think this is a kernel issue...why does the phone keep resetting the max frequency is 1188?! happens no matter what i do. is it an adaptive governor limitation or something?

set the max freq with an app that is set to restore on boot (SetCPU, CM performance, etc.)
That's what I've been doing. And I even tested by restarting and it'll keep the 1512, then I'll check a bit later and it's back to 1188.
So I switched to kernel tuner thinking that won't have the issue, but I just checked and it switched back to 1188 and I haven't restarted in between.
Within one boot session it shouldn't just reset the frequency. And it's not just adaptive cuz I'm on badass now

Sounds like you may have conflicting bootup settings or init.d settings. I would find a way to clean those up. Id suggest wipiing but no one ever likes doing that.

[Q] EOS4 #99 w/ KatKernel_96_JB4.2_Lidpatch SODs and RRs

Problem Reproduction:
1. Boot the device.
2. No problems during normal usage or when charging.
3. Let the device go to sleep for a couple 2-4 hours
SOD:
When pressing the power button after opening the lid the screen turn on but instead is a black screen, device still seems operational, but screen does not come on, only happened two times since flashing and randomly with nothing I can pin-point it to have a theory from some research, but do not know if it is related.
RR:
Device not reboot unless reboot is initiated, TF101 is rebooting randomly during deep sleeps.
Neither RR or Deep Sleeps occur when the tablet is charging or in active use.
Specifics
Tablet: TF101 Tab and Dock, 16 GB WIFI
Recovery: TWRP 2.3.2.3
ROM: EOS 4 Nightlies Build 99
Kernel: KatKernel_96_JB4.2_Lidpatch
Specific Customization Apps:
K.A.T_V1.2.7 - using KAT Audio, KAT Media Service, GPS fix installed, and adblock hosts file in place.
SetCPU - Profile 1 (screen-on priority 50): Overclocked to 1504Mhz with Smartassv2 govenor, min setting 312 MHZ (read some people do this prevent SOD and RR for the min setting)I/0 Scheduler SIO (also read on XDA others have been very stable with this setup). Profile 2 (Battery less than 38%, priority 75): Stock Max to 312 Mhz Min with conservative governor and SIO scheduler.
**Note: All SOD and RR have occured while SetCPU is in profile 1.
Ram Manager Pro: Minfree setting set to More RAM for devices with over 512MB Memory. JV Heap set to 64MB
Lux Dash: Used to fix auto-brightness setting being too low on transformers. Have it set to dynamic update brightness.
Other settings
Disabled Hotword detection for Google Now fix.
Removed test keys from build.prop and renamed SuperSU to SU in system/apps to get around the Root checks of the TimeWarnerCable live streaming app.
Background: My transformer was in on stock ICS OTA update and was so slow it was barely usable and used battery like crazy. I followed all the procedures on XDA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2063406) and http://public.timduru.org/Android/tf101/eos4/ for wiping, i wiped and formated everything (dalvick, cache, system, factory)besides the externalSD card. Flashed the 99 nightly build and was impressed with how smooth everything was, was like a brand new tab. Did some bench marking and saw the good reviews on KAT kernel, so I flashed KAT kernel and installed KAT app and was even more impressed with performance, benchmarks jumped significantly. Tested everything I could think possible and did not see any major bugs so I figured this would be a good settling point. I did not re-install any of my apps from the Titanium or My Backup Pro or system settings, i installed everything from the market and configured systems settings, after I stopped all the update activities that when I noticed the SOD and RR issues (due to android assistant showing startup times when I had not initiated a reboot). Two days or so ago I installed Reboot Logger to keep track of the RRs. I noticed one SOD on the 18th after 2 hours of inactivity and one on the 19th around the same amount of time of inactivity. There was four RRs on the 19th and two on the 20th. Last night I was doing some digging and saw a bunch of feedback for JB on disabling the location services in setting and app settings, so I implemented that last night as well as removed the dock SD card after before leaving the device in a state of inactivity. After those two changes there was only two RR vs the four the prior day (Although if this is a semi-fix it is a pain not being able to use auto-location for apps) and no SODs again YET.
Let me just say that I love the ROM and KAT Kernel and KAT app, I am extremely impressed with all of it with the way to performs and how buttery smooth it is compared to stock. Lots of Kudos to the developers. If possible I would like to leave KAT Kernel in place because of the performance benefits. If I could get eliminate or minimize the SOD and RRs to an extreme minimum this would be a perfect/Rock solid solution. Attached are the Kmsg and logcats before the last RR and a screenshot of the RR from the Reboot Logger (note the RR/soft boots do not have a restart timstamp next to them, the ones that do are initiated reboots. .
Do you think the latest preview (175) or nightly 100 help the SODs or RRs? Also since the previews are compiled in Linaro and this is the native format for the TF101 be slightly more stable (I did a lot of digging on XDA but could not find a lot one way or the other to justify one direction or another), any empirical data from testing? Just curious. Thanks

I love your setting
Well i'm on the phone so i didn't see something but.. i advise to put row as the main scheduler (best for ssd hardware) and the conservative governor modified with the sampling rate min at 50.000.. the same for the ondemand..
If you need i'll patch those 2 for you.. (i don't know how to use github but i can patch the *.c)
Anyway the kernel seems good.. i'll test it tomorrow

If you enabled "enable register hook and master sequence" in screen tab under synapse this settings works perfectly!
Sometimes charging settings some roms applied after reboot the phone. My phone on Chrisleko Rom V4, and it works perfectly without restartat the phone. (the charge control menu not a voltage settings)

Cortexbrain script should be great. found this piece of information from dorimanx weblog,
This script will manipulate all the system / cpu / battery behavior. Based on chosen EXTWEAKS profile+tweaks and based on SCREEN ON/OFF state.
When User select battery/default profile all tuning will be toward battery save! But user loose performance -20% and get more stable system and more battery left.
When user select performance profile, tuning will be to max performance on screen ON!
When screen OFF all tuning switched to max power saving! as with battery profile, so user gets max performance and max battery save but only on screen OFF.
This script change governors and tuning for them on the fly!
Also switch on/off hotplug CPU core based on screen on/off.
This script reset battery stats when battery is 100% charged.
This script tune Network and System VM settings and ROM settings tuning.
This script changing default MOUNT options and I/O tweaks for all flash disks and ZRAM.

Hi halaszk,
Everything working properly and I can UV more than other kernels. Stability is perfect.
Features you add are perfect too.
I wanna ask about two thing,
1. My Sview Cover does not work. This was happen on hannry kernel 2.0A before and solved on 3.0A. Also it is working on pekaka kernel.
2. could you put sched_mc control on synapse.
Thanks for your effort and knowledge.

First of all thank you halaszk for the best kernel for our note 3. Cheers and keep up the work. Just a little confusion. On set cpu n cpu spy the min frequency is 100mhz (the whole frequency table is different than the one in synapse) I'm a little confused due to this. Can somebody explain?

This guide is meant to help those who have rooted their phones and are now finding it slow, laggy, messy, etc.
I've been seeing a lot of posts repeating common problems that have been fixed by other members of the forums, so I'll compile a list of the most common bugs and fixes for them (the ones that can be fixed) in this guide so people can refer to it instead of swamping dev threads with the same questions over and over again. The quicker we can get through the common problems, the quicker we can get to fixing the ones we don't have solutions to so far.
Disclaimer: After installing the ENG bootloader, you are going to experience less battery life. There are things we can do to improve this, but nothing I have discovered so far will get you back to stock battery life... except re-installing stock ROM. Also standard disclaimer that all of the fixes here are done at your own risk. I am not responsible for any of these fixes breaking your phone.
Bug #1: Phone is laggy after rooting the phone/Battery is down the tank.
Fix: The phone is (partially) lagging because the ENG bootloader automatically sets the CPU governor to "Performance." While this is supposed to lock the CPU frequency at the maximum values, it does cause a lot of heat and possibly throttling. Additionally, the max core clocks are set to 1.593Ghz instead of their actual maximums. Not every CPU Tuner will allow you to set the big cores separately, so look around for one that does if you don't want to use Kernel Toolkit.
First, use Flashfire to flash one of two zips provided by psouza4 on our sister Verizon Galaxy S7 (Edge) threads.
1. Kernel fixes & tweaks V15
2. Kernel fixes, tweaks, & Debloater
You need only flash one of these two zips. One additionally debloats the system, one does not. Choose whichever suits your needs.
What the zips do:
Adds a rotate button to the native gallery app.
Adds a shortcut call button in the call log next to each logged call.
Adjusts several CPU tunables, which fixes phone lag and battery life issues.
Disables "No SIM" popup when no SIM card is present.
Disables roaming data by default.
Disables secure storage support, which fixes Wi-Fi passwords not saving issue.
Disables Verizon provisioning for Wi-Fi tethering/hotspot (will still use your data plan, of course).
Enables ADB to run as root by default.
Enables CPU idling/sleeping, which fixes phone heat issues.
Enables mock GPS locations.
Enables native call recording feature in the dialer.
Enables native Wi-Fi calling feature in the dialer.
Enables RIL power saving features.
Enables scheduled messages in the native messaging app.
Enables the camera during calls.
Enables unlimited contact merging.
Enables using the new 3GPP2 Profile ID (Verizon exclusive).
Fixes various 'searching for service' and other cellular network connectivity issues (SMS/MMS not working, calls not working, etc.)
Knox apps, drivers, and data are removed (fix+debloat version).
Prefers LTE network.
Raises the contact name length limit to 1,280 characters.
Raises the maximum SMS recipient limit from 10 to 90.
Remove nagging 'unauthorized actions' security notification (fix+debloat version).
Removes VoLTE icon.
Removes bloatware and/or apps that can be downloaded from the Play Store and don't need to live in /system (fix+debloat version):
Next, install a CPU Tuner utility like Kernel Toolkit, then change the governor from "Performance" to "Interactive." Also change the max CPU frequency of the little cores to 1.593Ghz and the big cores to 2.150Ghz while you're at it. Leave the cores at their default minimum frequency. This will go a long way to improving the speed of the phone. Also make sure you that have the new settings to apply on boot. Every kernel manager should have this option somewhere.
Note: Although the max frequency in the settings screen will drop to some number, as long as you can see the CPU ramp up to the new settings in the information screen, then everything is fine. You can test the max frequency by turning the screen off and then back on.
Then, install sEFix and set entropy to "Ultra."
Lastly, install L Speed and:
Code:
-Main Tweaks: Turn on
-Battery Improvement
-OOM Killer
-Kernel Tweaks - "Light"
-CPU Tuner: Turn on
-CPU Optimizer
-LNET Optimizer: Turn on
-Google DNS
-Faster Streaming
-Faster Dormancy
-IO Tweaks: Turn on
-IO Boost
-Partition Remount
-RAM Manager
-Balanced
-Seeder
-Moderate
Their individual effects can be read up on here.
Bug #2: Weird "hurricane" icon in the corner.
Fix: This is related to the imsservice.apk which controls the RCS icon and the VoLTE icon being displayed. Someone has a modified version of the Note 5 imsservice.apk with these removed. You can find the apk HERE in the OP's attachment. HOWEVER, you will push this to a different location than the location mentioned in the guide there. You have two choices, you can either push the apk via ADB from you computer or you can copy the file using a root file manager.
ADB Method (Assumes you know what you're doing. Don't copy the code verbatim if you don't know what the command is doing):
Code:
adb remount
adb push imsservice.apk /system/priv-app/imsservice/imsservice.apk
adb reboot
Root File Manager Method:
Transfer the imsservice.apk to your phone. Anywhere where you'll remember the location is fine. Open the file manager with root compatibility and copy the file to /system/priv-app/imsservice/ and overwrite the imsservice.apk already in the folder.
Set permissions of the file to 0644 or rw-r--r-- depending on your file manager. You can set permissions using most file managers.
Restart the phone.
I've included the stock PD8 imsservice.apk as an attachment below if anyone has issues with the modified one from the guide.
Bug #3: Notification warning that system has been modified.
Fix #1: Disable com.samsung.android.securitylogagent & com.tmobile.pr.adapt using your favorite package disabler. This will hide all notifications associated with this app as well as the root check that you might have encountered.
Fix #2: This fix requires Xposed. You can follow the instructions to install Xposed HERE.
Then install the Xposed module NotifyClean, activate the module, and reboot the phone. You will then use this app to block the notification under the package com.samsung.android.securitylogagent by clicking on the package so that it is highlighted red. The notification should disappear!
Note: This app can also be used to hide the icon for WiFi Calling if it's annoying you. You can still use the WiFi calling function while hiding the notification.
Bug #4: I keep losing root.
Fix #1: Secure boot/startup has caused the loss of root. So make sure you DO NOT SETUP the secure boot option when you're first setting up the phone or any time afterwards. This is the same option that forces users to type in/swipe in their password on a screen with a black background. This is not the normal type/swipe your password on your lockscreen after a boot.
Fix #2: Disable Security policy updates. I've also heard that people who leave this option on lose their root after a couple of reboots. You can find this setting under:
Settings > Lock screen and security > Other security settings > Security policy updates > Automatic updates (Turn this setting off).
Fix #3: Disable auto-updates for apps in Google Play Store. It's possible that SuperSU auto-updated, breaking root.
Fix #4: Disable automatic updates for the phone. I don't think these run anyways on modified software, but it can't hurt. You can disable the applications responsible for automatic updates using Titanium Backup, EZ Disabler, or any other package disabler you know of. The packages to disable are:
com.sec.android.soagent
com.wssyncmldm
com.samsung.firmware.nfc
com.samsung.android.firmware.tsp
Bug #5napchat: Unable to log into Snapchat.
Fix #1: This happens if you attempt to login to Snapchat after installing Xposed. Just make sure you login to Snapchat prior to installing Xposed. Done.
Fix #2: If you've already installed Xposed, you can:
-Do a clean install through ODIN, and re-root your phone, install and log into Snapchat, then install Xposed.
-Uninstall Xposed by flashing THIS through Flashfire, uninstalling the Xposed framework app, and clearing the data on your Snapchat app. Then login to Snapchat and re-install Xposed.
Bug #6: WiFi passwords aren't being saved
Fix: Use a root file manager like Solid Explorer and go to /system and open/edit build.prop. Scroll down or use the "find" function to search for ro.securestorage=true and change it from true to false (ro.securestorage=false). Save the file. Done!
If you guys have any more bugs that you run into, please feel free to post them here. Anyone who knows of any additional fixes to these bugs or solutions to any bugs that others post, also feel free to add them in the comments and I will compile them into this guide when I get a chance.
I've included the PD8 imsservice.apk below if you need it

Not every CPU Tuner utility will let you set the individual big.LITTLE cores separately. Try using the one recommended or look for another one that does allow it. Kernel Toolkit is the only one that I remember off the top of my head. I'll also make an edit in the post to avoid further confusion.
hey all, does anyone have or has experienced your incoming calls not being recieved? i have called myself and others also and it either rings until voicemail or it just goes straight to voicemail,
any ideas whats causing this?
thanks,
Great post! Unfortunately I'm having problems with smart view after rooting. Every time I try to screen mirror it works but it is extremely laggy making it unusable. This has only been an issue since root and I've tried mirroring to three different devices and it's the same with all of them. I followed the instructions in this thread to see if these tweaks would help but they didn't change my screen mirroring issue at all. Is anyone else out there experiencing this?
little help please.
Followed the guide for bugs 1 & 2 exactly as mentioned. Used the root manager method for bug #2. Now i keep getting this pop-up that the phone is not responding...Any solutions to get rid of this?
thanks

Just started for me too. Doesn't go straight to voice mail but i don't get calls and cant call out now. Seemed to happen right after i replaced the imsservice.apk and rebooted. The annoying hurricane icon is gone now, just at the expense of making and receiving calls lol.
Did you also happen to overwrite the imsservice.apk?

Looks like I forgot to mention changing permissions on the file after you copy it over. From there, the easiest way to restore it would probably be to adb push the file over since you don't need to reset permissions if you push through adb. This should correct the crashing and allow you to use your phone.

Yeah I believe I replaced the imsservice.apk when I flashed the fixs and debloater zip thats been going around

Is this what you mean about the cores?

Leave the min frequency of the cores at the minimum otherwise your cores will always be at max frequency which is something you definitely don't want.

I switched the minimum to 307 and max 1593 for small cores. For big cores minimum 307 MHz and Maximum is 2150 mhz.
Its not letting me save these numbers. I had min set to 307 and when I left the screen and went back it jumped back up to 1593

Trying changing the permissions as mentioned, that worked perfect for me.

If you look at the information menu, do you see the cores ramp up to the 2.150 Ghz we set? If it does, then the settings have been saved despite it not reflecting on the settings screen. You can force it to ramp up to max but turning the screen off and then turning it back on.

Yes all 2 cpus go to 1593 and 2 go to 2150. This happens for 2 seconds than all 4 go down to 307

This is the expected behavior. This just means that they will clock up to the max when there is a high load, but then drop back down to the lowest frequency to save battery when there is nothing to be done. Everything is working as it should.
Thank you for your help. Does your phone run hot when gaming or charging? My charger also gets very very hot while charging.

Mines was hot just with normal usage. I used every tip and fix that people suggested but it was still pretty slow and lagged if I had a game running and a couple of more apps running. Battery was OK though.
