so does this work?

Madbat · Nov 28, 2013

Sorry I haven't had time to test. But I have the day off today so I'll report back soon.

rbheromax · Nov 28, 2013

okay thanks

Madbat · Nov 28, 2013

I'm out shopping with the wife right now, so I don't have my computer. Would I be able to extract the boot img from your tar and swap it with the boot img from one of the other kernel zips and flash in twrp?

rbheromax · Nov 28, 2013

you could but dont. it was tested on sprint side. it loops. im willing to bet i packed it wrong lol

Madbat · Nov 28, 2013

Ok thanks. You still got good credit for vaevictus, your aloud to loop a few phones. Lol

Madbat you are intelligent just the person I need to ask, is it possible to trick your phone into thinking it has a higher resolution screen. Ive been messing with deadtrigger to use tegra 3 effects which are unsupported on our phone. It works great but I still see gaggies or aliasing in dead trigger and games like subway surf that run 60fps religously on our phone. I see when I tweak these games theres something called screen manager resolution and that is the resolution of our phone 480*800 I could mod that number but as soon as I go back to the game it resets to 480*800 because the phone knows that's the native resolution is there a way of changing this? If so how and what can I do to get games running at higher resolution and/or run with more antialiasing thanks if you read and happy holidays

Madbat · Dec 1, 2013

Never thought about it. Mostly because screen res is dependant upon hardware. Even if you could trick it somehow, it would probably Bork your graphics because it would be trying to calculate resolution that its hardware isn't capable of. I think antialiasing adjustment is in 4.3. A hidden menu if I'm not mistaken. I believe we've squeezed just about all we can from this little trooper of a phone. You know I can't help digging around for some kind of definitive answer though. Lol

So I got the new ND4 update. Is the kernel the same? Can I use MG5 kernel on it?

Here is the ND4 kernel I extracted from the stock ND4 Rom

Thx:smokingsomb:

rbheromax · May 29, 2014

What api is nd4?

I'm not sure but I'd guess 16
It's still 4.1.2

No, new kernel source. If you updated to nd4, mg5 kernel isn't a good idea.

Ok :'(
Well I hope to see an OC soon. I miss it already

That remains to be seen. I haven't had the time to do a diff on the kernel source sammy released.

It's easy enough to flash a kernel if anyone wants to try. As always, backups are the key.

I'll download the source soon (my lunch period is in a few minutes). I have PLENTY of time to look over it now

What is the frequency of the kernel? I used Performance Control and upped the ND4 kernel to 1188 MHz, It was running at 918 MHz originally.

A cursory look at the defconfig and acpuclock tables shows 1.2GHz as max. The governor most likely lowered to 918MHz, as that what was needed at the time. You can test by undoing Performance Control and then observe your clock speed as you rapidly use a touch screen feature.

I gave up
Even on my schools SUPER FAST wired connection, Samsung was only giving out at ~24kbps so I gave up downloading for now. They didn't update to a 3.4 kernel did they?

I'll try to put it on github tomorrow, I should have some time free.

Ima upload it now. I finally downloaded it. Sad to see it's still 3.0.31. We have GOT to port a touchwiz KK from Galaxy S3. I just setup my first 64bit dev machine. So happy

So while playing games like Clash of Clans, my phone was getting really hot. Like I thought it was gonna start melting. Then the phone shut down by itself. Is that a safety feature in the kernel or something??? Thx

Thermal protection. Its always in there.

Nick_73 · Jun 4, 2014

So has anyone started working on ND4 kernel yet???

Nick_73 · Jun 4, 2014

I'm gonna set up my environMint

tomorrow. Win 8 took a turd so going to Linux
