This is an alpha release!
It is nowhere as stable and tested as Speedmod itself!


What it is?
All I did was to compile Speedmod (To be honest, I'm clueless what gizmos are sitting there, but its great)
Credit should go to hardcore. He is author of this kernel, I'm responsible for breaking it and making bugs.

What did you break?
+ OC/UV features (this might fry your device)
+ some clock changes to keep it stick more to 100mhz (should be at least)
+ preemptive config (needs testing)
* optimised for size (not sure if this is good)
* noop is being the default scheduler (i just like it)
* 341MB ram (if someone is curious about this)
- everything I have broken along the way (maybe nothing)

So (as you can see) its pretty alpha

How do I?
Just flash the CWM package.
This kernel is being tested on Insanity ROM
32luwng
, which I personally use.
If you want some more power, extras like nitrality (Ha I bet you dont know what it is!) I recommend you flashing this one.
By default no OC is applied. You need to download and use Voltage Control.
BE SURE TO USE LATEST (3.0.1)
32luwng
Voltage Control app!

Wooah, I think its stable...
You can never be sure.
My device freezes just after going into menu in Asphalt 5 (Samsung apps), so thats the test I can recommend.
I suggest you do the following:
OC 1120Mhz -> 1x Asphalt race,
OC 1200Mhz -> 1x Asphalt race,
OC 1280Mhz -> 1x Asphalt race.

If that is stable.. Well you can be 99% sure, but you know, 1% off one week is ****loads of time ;p



Why?
Because I can :)
Consider this a tribute to all developers who constantly work on improving Galaxy S kernels!


Then tell me who was that?
- hardcore - its his source
- sztupy - excellent recovery
- supercurio - sound fixes, lagfix ideas
- raspdeep, unhelpful, laststufo, trasig -> oc code
- all others involved, sorry if I missed anyone! (its late)
- personal thanks to nitr8 - support and testing, some recovery tweaks (more coming, if hardcore releases sources for recovery)

So what you gonna do?
Basically wait for feedback. As always it will be mixed.
I dont have many plans for this kernel, I will just upgrade with every new Speedmod (well, if time will allow).
However, I dont want to release kernel more than once a week.

Erm, sources, bit#^?
See: insane.7z (fixed)

Its code prior cleaning, some leftovers are there.
Lots of debug info, to track whats going on (kmsg is disabled in release, so they dont work anyway)

F...udge! I'm stuck at bootlogo!
Flash back your previous kernel and disable lagfix from recovery!

F...udge! My device is totally unstable
Code:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state
Check it after few mins of runnning. If it goes over desired frequency -> report here with output

-reserved- not sure if needed

K13C is great kernel and if oc/uv this, i will try. Why? Because I'm used this right now and if you install galaxy tuner inside have options to oc for 5 minute and when I go to make test with quadrant advanced see more score on cpu test.

I think I just had an orgasm jsut reading it. My dream come true =)

Do we continue to use your app for this kernel?

Thanks for this kernel.

I've found a bug.. when i switch governor from conservative to On demand, my phone directly freezes =o
I use your Voltage Control app 3.0.1

Not working for me...now...

Flashed the alpha release over Laststufos SOK 4.7.8 and Darky's ROM 9.3 Beta 3 (pele78 black theme, your voltage control app for uv). Flashing works fine, but does not boot further than the first screen (Samsung i9000 whatsoever).

Reverted to SOK 4.7.8 - fine again.

Waiting for your next releases to test.

Did you have a lagfix on as K13c only reads rfs and EXT4 ?? I flashed over DamianGTO and it was fine, but I disabled lagfix first

Have you plan to make a better settings in the kernel that working without be unstable?

Have you tried it on the source from Samsung?
Why i ask is that is a better way to sort out all unstable stuff and make it stable.
Then add other tweaks/ addon and look what happens.
Maby you are the one that can make uv/oc stable.

Good luck..

i flashed the kernel over SOK 4.7.8 with lagfix EXT 4 on and had no problem with booting.

Thanks for the kind word, but I'm sorry - dont have high hopes.
I fixed what was obvious. I dont have deep understanding of those functions.

Let me try - enabled JFS on sys and sd with SOK - does not work with hardcore's kernel.
Checking now...

I just did a few tests with an OC at 1.2 Ghz, and for me it seems to be pretty stable atm, I have no freeze etc, and the phone seems to be smoother. But I've tested for 10 minutes so, I'll give you a more consistant feedback tomorrow.

For information, I ran a Quadrant test (I know it means nothing, but just for numbers), and without lagfix it gives :
- 1180 with no OC/UV
- 1270 @1.12Ghz
- 1390 @1.20Ghz

Thank you a lot for your work xan !

Glad it works.
Its meant for multitasking and stability, dont expect to dominate benchmark charts :)

Changed FS for system and SD/DATA to RFS - flashed xan's hardcore-based oc/uv kernel and...it worked...device booted and seems to accept prior set voltage control levels. Converted both sytem and data partitions to EXT4 now. Seems okay so far.
Will post in case of any issues...

Hey, im doing the samething over in the captivate section, basically I used k12p, at the time that was what was out, but I've updated to every release hardcore put out..I've tried many different things and you can grab my sources if you want, some stuff didn't play well with speedmod, it might save you some headaches... there's a link to my sources and a changelog in the OP, I recently start using something similar to trasigs oc/uv code also, made a few changes, but its worked well... just figured id let ya know, maybe give you some ideas and save some hassel as well..

    Ok 13E for testing... I think it definitely works maybe.

    Well if you choose max freq 1120 then have 1120 frequency enabled in advanced screen (assuming you use Voltage Control 4) then something is wrong with kernel.
    At this moment kernel its provided 'as is', without any support, its simply outdated.

    I made some tests with Insane GB kernel, however ATM I'm running CM7 and awesome TK-Glitch, so I'm in no need of working on kernel for stock-based ROMs.
