Please clarify sir. You flashed the new kernel then installed the ext4.zip but it did not boot so you reverted back to stock kernel and the cwm remained and is working with stock kernel now? Is that what happened sir? If so its very nice!

well first of all thks a lot MAROC for taking out some time and investing it on building cool kernel for galaxy y

now i checked ur latest release well it boots no issues but dunn know it gets some speed if usb is connected to PC and boots fast

kernel version is 2.6.35.7 root@ ubuntu#60

now 1st thing i noticed is i lost my BASE BAND it happened wid ur previous release 2 well the issue is some how it ticks flight mode on and in settings if i try 2 untick it it says enabling wireless connections but sadly it nevers turn dem on and after screen sleep if i try 2 awake it again den again i find flight mode on stuff

secondly CWM is working flawlessly it has issues first but aftr rebooting once it works like charm[thxs to MAI for finding this one] and glad dat it replaced stock recovery

thirdly like u directed i flashed EXT4 zip frm CWM recovery it says installation aborted well 2 be precise the exact error is E:Error in /sdcard/Ext4.zip (status 7) Installation aborted

so overall cool kernel hope u notice dis issues and fix

BTW i checked it on STOCK ROM DDLA3

this is my personal thought. I think It would be so nice if the dev (merruk an vivek) also release the source code to public (it doen't mean anything for me since I don't understand any programming stuff here) but it would really help if other dev comes and give us some help here. in this way both merruk and vivek could also focus in different aspect developing the new kernel.

Root privilege is gone, SU has force close in updating binary,Titanium back has no root excess.Gonna flash a stock Rom.

sir try 2 flash update.zip [rooting s/w] instead of flashing new rom chk whether flashing that solves ur issues well in ma case it was base band so had 2 revert back 2 stock again but if ur rom has base band intact den rooting s/w shud solve ur issue i guess itz soft root so dis issue newayz just a thought

newayz what about CWM recovery and EXT4.zip have u checked dem

    CWM
    KernelUpdate.zip
    Ext4
    MerrukTechnology v2.0 Pre-Final(boot.img ONLY)
    System 1.0.8
    (Note : For system 1.0.8 it contains "system" folder, extract that folder and place in root of SD card)

    Now we are all set

    1. Turn off phone and boot into CWM
    (Note: To boot into CWM press Vol Up, Home, and Power at the same time and in the stock recovery choose update from zip and select the CWM.zip)
    2. Once in the CWM recovery, simply choose install from zip and select KernelUpdate.zip
    (Note : Kernel Update.zip looks for a boot.img file in SD card and flashes it)
    3. After successful kernel up press power to return to CWM
    4. Press Reboot now, and your kernel is updated
    5. Reboot twice and it will automatically delete the system folder in SD card
    6. Repeat step 1 and select install from zip, this time choose the Ext4.zip
    7. Press power to return to CWM and Press Reboot now

    OR

    INSTRUCTIONS :
    Short PDA Flashing Guide

    - download the .tar file

    - in the PDA field, browse for the kernel tar
    - leave all other fields and checkboxes default!
    - connect your phone, You must see yellow 0:[COMxx] in the first ID:COM and "Added" in the message box
    - Start flashing by the START button.

    How To Get Logcat For Windows User
    Here's how to do a logcat, providing you have installed android sdk.

    1. Turn off your phone (if stuck, just remove the battery).
    2. At your command prompt, do "adb logcat > logresult.txt".
    3. Plug your phone to your usb and power it.
    4. After at least 1-2 minutes or until the phone has fully booted up, terminate your logcat session (ctrl+c).

    By then you have created a logresult.txt which contains your logcat entries. PM your results to the devs.

    Sir Maroc,I Dont have Use System 1.0.8 to v2,its make any issue?

    Amazing PowerSave Governor ;P
    ---------------------------
    in 2.0 do i need to use the system.zip of 1.0.8 ?
    ---------------------------
    I'm not using it, I just flashed the kernel using faqbly method and that's it. Not sure about custom roms though
    ---------------------------

    Flash the Kernel with any method you want (Odin, Mai77, or Faqbly).
    For better speed :) install ext4.zip
    For better performance :) install system-1.0.8.zip

    Reboot Twice :) Enjoy.

    If you have a fresh install (Stock Rom) you need to do it (Install System.zip from 1.0.8) :) but if you have an old rom that have already the system folder (Kernel Modules) installed on it it's not a problem.

    MT Kernel Developer Edition 4 ( v.2.5 )

    Hello Guys :) Uploading The New Kernel :)

    This One are relly Good :) you need to test all things and see if the performance are increased :)
    Notice : Superuser.apk removed :) so if you wana root the device just put you new files in :

    /system/rooting

    we support : su, busybox and Superuser.apk in that folder

    For ext4 this one are really do the job :)

    To convert you STL blocks you need to do this :

    1) - Make a Nandroid Backup.
    2) - Install the attached EXT4 Zip file.
    3) - Restore your Nandroid Backup.
    4) - Flash the PDA.merruk.tar (cause the nandroid backup will flash back your old kernel)
    5) - Enjoy The New Speed :)


    This File do 2 things for ext4 :), & reset the custom bin counter (Bin file used from docky Thanks for him), and finally Flash the kernel.
    Convert the blocks to ext4 filesystem, and tune the filesystems with ext4 specs :)
    You can easely turn you system to ext3/2 to have more speed (ext2 is better cause no journal there so it turns fast recording to the checks found in internet)

    For Kernel if you used the EXT4 Zip File you are done, if not flash the PDA file attached via Odin.

    After Installing please let the system take the time nedded to full booting and reboot twice to take effects :)

    Have a Good Day :)

    Please Your Reports improve the kernel, so send them :)

    EDIT:

    guys please read carfully it's not for noobs.

    if you wanna convert your blocks the partitions system/data/cache will be formated and converted to ext4, the Ext4_Converter-signed.zip attached also flash the kernel.

    if you don't wanna be in ext4 FS just flash the attached kernel as pda (PDA.merruk.tar).
