Root [Kernel] Imoseyon LeanKernel 3.7.0

[Ibrick]

Still working on the anykernel mod for 3.5.8 if you don't want wifi I have one set up and ready to go. Gonna try to get that resolved now.

Thanks for the work, definitely appreciate it.

I think ill wait for wifi working though. I spend about half the day on it so something I need working.

What is any kernel? How does it differ from any kernel? err.. any other kernel.

Basically, if the kernel isn't built along side a specific ROM, you lose some of the ramdisk settings/tweaks since the kernel isn't designed with that ROM in mind.

Any Kernel is a script that re-writes part of the kernel to what the ROM already has in place so you keep the tweaks in tact.

^^ Great write up. Please post your IC voltages for the major slots.

For Imo and Dream:

245 750
368 750
768 875
1024 1025
1222 1100
1408 1175

for jdeclipse:

245760 750
368640 750
768000 875
896400 875
1024000 1025
1113600 1050
1222400 1100
1305600 1125
1408000 1175

I found these in the following way. First, I set the max speed to a test clock speed in CM settings. Then I lower the voltage for that slot by 25 mV. Then I run three or four quadrants in rapid succession, then 5 linpacks in rapid succession. If no freeze I lower the voltage. Note: I have never actually had a freeze in quadrant or linpack. I almost always get a freeze immediately when I apply the voltage. One thing I do is that after a successful test I have the settings load on boot so I can keep going easily. I do this for ever increasing clock speeds. I do not change the minimum frequency because I want to make sure the transitions work ok.

What I have found is that I have to bump up the higher clock speeds by 50 mV to have long term stability. So I add 50 mV to everything 1GHz and up.

And I said before, really, I think you get most of the gain from the bottom and top slots since they are where the phone spends its time. But now that I am done, I just keep a text file in my dropbox with these voltages and I can set them up very quickly.

And also, I would not use my voltages to start. A lot of phones cannot do 750 at 368 from what I have seen posted. But you could add maybe 50 or 75 to them so you spend less time tweaking.

Despite all I said, do not expect massive battery life gains...don't forget that this only affects how the CPU uses power, not the radios, not the backlight, etc. I am not even sure it effects the GPU. But if you like to tweak, and you most likely wouldn't be here if you did not, then why not?

Okay wifi works but I can't get speedtweak.sh to work. It looks like it got broken on DTs 3.6.0 anykernel version as well so I'm wondering if it is part of the boot.img which I don't think it should be

Here is what I have so far with 3.5.8 and anykernel

I think the only thing not working is the speedtweak script and will try to fix that tonight if I can

I don't use speedtweak anyway.

I am trying Dream Kernel 2.9.0 right now. 48% after 7 h and 38 m. On 4G for maybe 3 hours. I never turn off anything but wifi via the Y5 app, so all normal sane people should do better.

What is the deal lately? Seems like things are moving backwards with battery life.

I think I did better on the latest jdeclipse and I know I did better on Imo 3.5.8.

Edit: If Imo or someone else added call recording to 3.5.8 I would just flash it and stop screwing around with kernels for a while.

After I get speedtweak working ill see what it takes to add call recording.

You are on the dev slippery slope, lol.

 

[Yeahha]

Depending on what it takes it may not be that hard

I'm now on 3.5.8 (which wow, you guys weren't kidding it's damn good) and the defaults for mine are set at:

245 750
368 800
768 900
1024 1000

It seems really stable so far and my time-in-state for each is very even, with 245 with a bit more than double time spent than any of the other slots (running OndemandX).

 

[bjanow]

What program are you using to determine how much time is spent in which slot? I used to use Setcpu but Worm told me to delete it. ;-)

Hi,
Go into terminal then type su then type speedtweak.sh then enter number 12, you will see the time in slot information.

I thought that's what dream kernel was?

Lean kernel with call recording basically?

 

[Yeahha]

Dream kernel has quite a few additional tweaks, and I don't know if it is built on top of 3.5.8 or a newer base, but yes it has call recording built in.

I think that's part of the problem. We mess around with this thing so much we don't give it a chance to settle in. Between roms, themes, kernels and voltages our phones might have an identity problem.
I am now running Liquid 3.0 with the new dream kernel and voltages from ahoogst. If I can hold out I'll determine by Friday if this is working well. (who am I kidding?)

That's the issue with DK--essentially no documentation. We know it is built off of Imo releases with tweaks, but we do not know which Imo release.

Absolutely true. I think I am way over 100 total flashes, and I have only been rooted since early July.

Link to 3.0? Looking to try something new as I'm done running DT's ROMs

I don't flash too much, I only flashed 14 times this morning, no I am not kidding.

Liquid 3.0? I think I missed something or is that sense?

You have to donate to liquid to get the nightlies. Pushing the GPL to the limit.

 

[bjanow]

Someone put it up on IRC yesterday, but I forgot who. I have not seen it on the forums but it's a honey.

 

[Yeahha]

Okay, yeah I wasn't sure if he still had nightlys or not, I haven't ran a liquid nightly since liquid frozen yogurt

 

[bjanow]

Heck, I'll donate. I never ran Liquid, don't even know where to find a donate link.

Me too!

I remember another developer did that a caught a shit storm from the community. I don't agree with it, but we all have opinions

Thanks I'm going to give this a try now. Haven't done a full wipe in a while and DT's "tweaks" wreaked havoc on my phone so I was planning on wiping and reflashing CM anyways

edit: new boot animation is pretty cool. Better than when I previously ran liquid
