Any Kernel's still being developed? Double tap to wake? - Captivate General

Hey Guys,
I am interested in flashing a custom kernel to my Captivate. I have CM11 installed currently. Are there any kernels still being developed for the cappy, or are there any that are compatible with cm11.
Also, is there any way to have double tap the screen to wake like some newer android devices support?

Well I feel like an idiot. I should have looked deeper into the development forums.

[Q] NStools like app for Samsung Infuse

Hi,
There is a nice app on Market i.e. "NSTools". It have a touchwake function.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1333696
I wonder is there any touchwake like app for samsung infuse. As i dont want to use power/vol button to bring screen back. The "Tap Tap app" of Market drains battery fast.
Thanks

As far as I know (having used NSTools on my Nexus S), the kernel would need to support the functionality held within that app. I think the app just enables the different sections when it recognizes that the kernel supports it.
That being said, I don't know if any kernel, gb or froyo, supports touch wake. I could be wrong but I don't remember ever seeing that in any kernel description on here.
Thanks for your feedback. You are right, Samsung Infuse kernel dont support the touchwake.

[Q] Mod to skip music with long press of volume keys when screen is off

Ok, I know this exists in quite a few ROM's but I would like to know if there is a zip that I can flash and have this feature on every ROM that I try.
There quite a few incredible ROM's that I remove immediately after installing simple because this feature is missing and this is a feature that I really need in my day to day usage.
CM9 or AOKP Roms do that
It's Always Sunny in XDA
I really like the gummynexus ROM but that doesn't have it
So, I was hoping for a MOD for it.
That's a great idea!! I loved MIUI ROMs for this but I am missing it on Nuhetri ROM. This is an important feature for me. Hopefully we can get a DEV to create this as a zip to flash.

aosp roms that allow for the disabling of the hardware keys

Can someone please point me in the direction of the aosp roms that allow you to disable the hardware keys?? So far Paranoid Android seems to be the only one I could find. Please let me know if I am missing something as I would love to use some other ROMs for an extended period. I have not seen the option on AOKP , Liquid Rom or any of the others. Also, is there an alternative method to disable them if the rom does not allow for it?
Eclipse does it

Skype integration + Sweep2wake function?

Hey, I am having trouble finding the right rom for what I need.
I need to have Skype integration with my contacts as I have the $30 T-mobile 100 minute plan and will use skype for unlimited minutes, having contacts integration makes that WAY easier. However I learned that skype integration is blocked in Sense roms, BUMMER! I Also found that BluetoothIME (Using a wii remote as a bluetooth controller) also doesn't work with sense, another bummer! (Though at this time a rather minor one) So even though there are MANY things I love about HTC Sense, if I have to then I'm going to switch to CM9.1 stable, however I can't seem to figure out if there is a good kernel with the Sweep2wake function that works without glitches on CM9.1.
So my questions are:
1: Are there ANY Sense roms that allow skype integration and Bluetooth controllers? (cause I'd prefer not to leave sense)
2: Is there a working CM9 version of the Bricked kernel with Sweep2wake? or ANY CM9 kernel with Sweep2wake?
3: What kernel is best for CM9.1 that allows overclocking? As the stock CM9.1 kernel doesn't have higher CPU speeds then 1.2GHz)
Thanks for reading.
Hi you can usually turn sweep to wake on with kernel tuner app. You go into misc. Tweaks and just set it to on. Scroll down and you will see sweep to wake. It will say off, press to turn on. I'm not running that rom but it worked for me.I do think it will work for you. Just download kernel tuner from market and give it a try. I just did this myself for the first time today. It worked like a charm for me! There are other harder ways to turn it on but give this a go. It's very easy. I'm running the new pac man rom and it didn't have sweep to wake enabled in kernel. I discovered that kernel tuner easily allows you to turn it on. I hope this is helpful. Best wishes.

Thanks for your tip. Although I discovered and flashed the rom Paranoid Android and it has Sweep2wake enabled! woohoo! And I'm loving my snappy Jelly Bean powered Sensation!
I noticed you have the Pac man jelly bean rom, how do you like it? any advantages over Paranoid Android?
Also, I installed Kernel tuner, and it shows that the governor of my main CPU is Ondemand, like I set it to be, however it also says my second CPU has Badass as its governor? I'm confused as to why they are different. Also, it won't let me overclock my GPU to 320, it just wont stick past 300. I don't know why. Any tips for those would be appreciated! Thanks.
I'm absolutely loving the pac man rom. It has more customisation in my onion then paranoid Android. Such as rom control. If you want sweep to wake on pac man just flash kernel 3.0.53 like I did. If it's not enabled go into kernel tuner from market and go to misc. Tweaks, scroll down, you will see sweep to wake, just turn it on from off and press save. It's that simple. This rom has great data and it connects very fast. In rom control you have many options! One of my favorite is circles for lock screen. You can customise the circle to any color and you wish. Also customise lock screen color. Rom control has a lot of great tweaks available. I was running paranoid before pac man and I'm a big fan of DK work. But for me pac man has the best of both worlds! If you like paranoid, you will love pac man! Give it a try and see what you think! We just got a update to version 5. It's so smooth and fast a real master piece! Do remember to run with kernel 53 for sweep to wake. Both the mentioned roms are great, I just personally think pac man has more customisation. We are all different in our opinions But DO give it a try and see what you think! I think it's a keeper! Do a nandroid of paranoid and if you don't like it, simply flash the backup. No harm done.. but I think you will agree that it's amazing! Best wishes.

maybe your kernel doesn't support more gpu overclock in that value
but if it is then do this
go to system>etc>init.qcom.post_boot.sh(using any file manager)
insert this path to that file
echo 320000000 > /sys/devices/platform/kgsl-3d0.0/kgsl/kgsl3d0/max_gpuclk

Cool, yeah I have 3.0.53 as well. I flashed v20 of Paranoid android and my phone was ridiculously laggy! I searched and found that its the kernel and flashed 3.0.53 and that fixed it! I might try Pac Man after I've used Paranoid Android for a month or so (I only JUST flashed it) and see which I like best. Thanks for your help!

[Feature Request] Advanced Display

Hi,
I used this rom and before it, i used cyanogenmod 10.2 on my galaxy s3 LTE. One feature that i miss from there was the ability to control the gamma of the screen, a feature called Advanced Display in cyanogenmod, like we have in touchwiz. Is it possible to include a feature like that in omni roms?
This is kernel related. Just flash a kernel that supports gamma control.

Oh ok, i didn't knew that
I think we have the control stuff required in the kernel, but we haven't gotten around to integrating the Settings side of it yet.
