Re: [KERNEL] [Stweaks] AJK v1.2 [JB] [ICS]

I still can't seem to get away from the HYPER governor. Works so well for me.

I've tryed conservative, savagedZen and results are same.
Little better with Zen, stable 800 but is not going down.
Something is using cpu. A lot.

By the way, love flashed slim 1.0 with it. :D

PS. Not finnaly the CPU % is bellow 20 but it keeps the 800 there.

Sounds like you have other issues going on. Good luck with that.

Having audio problems again with 1.1 that didn't happen in 8.1. Also, I've had my first media scanner problem with this version. Using the same Sho3 as before

Re: [KERNEL] [Stweaks] AJK v1.3 [JB] [ICS]

Wow. Ajk 1.3 is running well on CM10. The only problem I see is that wireless tethering gives me an error when starting. Once it does start, I can only get one device to connect and get internet connectivity. The other devices get a dhcp license, but they can't connect to the internet. Anyway, just my observation. Thanks for the hard work, AJ.

Re: [KERNEL] [Stweaks] AJK v1.3 [JB] [ICS]

For those on Sho's 2.5.1, what's the best governor to use when trying change the profile to battery or extreme battery?

Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda app-developers app

The default profile is pretty good for battery life.

I recommend the Conservative governor if you change to either the battery or extreme battery profiles. Those will be changed soon to utilize the Conservative governor and the ROW I/O scheduler.

That is unfortunately the best I can do and have it work on both AOSP and Samsung based ROMs. Otherwise, 1 type of ROM will have bad WiFi performance and no tethering.

For those with wifi tether issues, not a free ad but download "wifi tether for root users" free from market and it works nice on our device. Please give it a try.

Re: [KERNEL] [Stweaks] AJK v1.3 [JB] [ICS]

Lots of changes on 1.2 default config.
Nightmare, zen, noop, ondemand up to default.

I still don't get why rav4rar is using a performance governor on his profile. I always change that.

Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda app-developers app

I absolutely don't have straight answer for your "WHY" question, but all I can say is use rav4kar balanced profile for couple of battery cycles and see if it fits your requirements. AJ has already packaged very good profiles and the balanced profile has pegasusQ with tweaked parameters that help out performance and battery. If guys find rav4kar of no use I can ask AJ to remove it.:D

The rav4kar balanced profile is the most popular & most used profile in the kernel by a good margin.

I do not have any plans on removing it :D

I didn't say nothing about removing it.
I just want to known why, and that's all.
That answer is better than the previous one that is " he do use it Cuz he think is better".
That governor for me its not very battery friendly. That's the main reason to ask.

And to end this, I do use your profile. Thanks for making it.
People are getting touch around just for asking, gez.

Re: [KERNEL] [Stweaks] AJK v1.3 [JB] [ICS]

Ive noticed as ive flashed each new evolution of this kernel that some of them give me a hard time "grabbing [?]" the pulldown notification bar. Is there a STweaks setting i can adjust to make it more responsive?

As far as governors go.... i have the sgh-s959g from straight talk and i have tried every gov and hyper/conservative combination works best. Please keep the hyper in.

Try changing your screen sensitivity to something a little higher. I use 5, but some of the defaults are set to 1. It's all preference.

TY. I will try that. I guess the sensitivity settings work backwards from the way i thought it did.

    NOTE: Changelog information for builds prior to v3.2 was somehow deleted while the thread was closed (at my request...) for a short while.
    I will try to recover the lost changelog information and add it as I can.
    Changelog:

    v5.0 (in development)
    Updated ROM compatibility - now works on all current ROMs
    Fixed SoD when using ZZMOOVE as sleep governor
    Imported the latest Samsung ramdisk files
    Fixed an issue where profiles might be reset
    - Any further profile issue MUST be due to a ROM or rogue app issue.
    - The logs I have seen are indicating that the profile was deleted by something. Kernel is not capable of this...


    v4.9
    Fixed JB_Sound_Fix on Samsung based ROMs
    Fixed a small profile issue
    Fixed an issue with CPU grouping
    Improved ROM compatibility
    Misc fixes & tweaks
    New battery profile
    New performance profile - Highly recommended! Great performance & very good battery life!
    GPIO pin definitions fixed
    There's more but I forgot to write it down as I went...

    v4.8
    Small FileSystem tweak
    Improved ROM compatibility
    Disabled the boot logo for now

    v4.7
    Fixed various issues with CM10.1.3 RC2
    Sync'd CM10.x init files with CM sources
    Set ROOT to default ON for CM10.2
    Updated ZZMOOVE to v0.7d
    Set default profile sleep scheduler to BFQ
    New Battery profile, based on ZZMOOVE v0.7d
    New boot logo by Teknodad1974

    v4.6
    Tuned battery & performance profiles a bit
    Tweaked CortexBrain
    Fixed a small profile bug
    Updated ZZMOOVE governor
    -new ZZMOOVE governor is VERY smooth (smoothest gov I have found), uses slightly more battery than Hyper.


    v4.5
    Nice new boot logo by Teknodad1974
    Recovery background remains plain black to make it easier to read recovery text
    Fixed a small issue with recovery
    Added exFAT support
    Updated governors & i/o schedulers
    Updated profiles
    Updated Stweaks
    Added the Dorimanx implementation of CPU Voltage Groups. This will let people see why some phones UV easily and some cannot UV.


    v4.4
    Added support for Android 4.3
    Some code cleanup
    Tweaked touchscreen and display to improve smoothness

    v4.3
    Reverted part of the frequency cleanup as it caused a slight hesitation in the UI

    v4.2
    Bugfix - corrected CPU frequency table
    Boots & settles in much faster now

    v4.1
    Undervolting has been given a reprive thanks to topiratiko & samprocat
    Use UV with CAUTION and expect no support when using UV
    CPU frequency table has been tuned down to 6 primary frequencies for efficiency
    CPU voltages have been corrected in the profiles to account for the new frequency table
    Fixed mic swapping (MicSwap version only, obviously)
    Due to the changes made to the CPU frequency table and the CPU voltage table,
    it is CRITICAL that you follow the installation instructions exactly as outlined here.
    S959G users please ask for assistance from more experienced S959G users
    if you need assistance..
    PLEASE do not just ignore the need for profile resets!

    This version will start off slow (possibly VERY SLOW) and will speed
    up as it settles in. First boot can take a LONG time. This is both normal and expected.


    v4
    Project "SMOOTH UI" is now complete!
    You should notice better performance in every way. If not, you're doing something wrong!
    Fixed poor performance on Samsung ROMs - they did not like the OOM settings in v3.9 .
    Any trouble reports that do not include a logcat will be ignored.

    v3.9
    New boot logo by Teknodad1974
    Corrected the context on the Stweaks->Screen tab
    Removed BLN "blink" and "fade" options as they do not work on our phones
    Added a new "AJK Tweaked" OOM profile (Stweaks->Memory tab)
    Most people will see a nice improvement from the new OOM profile
    Slide2wake fix should be functional now
    Ad-Block is expanded & updated. This is a complete ad blocking solution now
    Ad-Block can be added/removes d in Stweaks->Other
    Ad-Block can be updated automatically via setting in Stweaks->Other

    v3.8
    AKA: THE ONE
    Nightmare has been tuned and should be much more stable now
    Added ZZMOOVE governor by ZaneZam (a great battery or sleep governor)
    New topiratiko tuned profile
    MAJOR smoothness improvements made by Project "SMOOTH UI"
    Re-added Touchscreen Sensitivity setting in Stweaks
    Added touchscreen revision detect button in Stweaks -> Screen
    Added additional touchscreen settings for different touchscreen type

    Many thanks to the testing team for working hard and relaying good
    information for me to build upon. :highfive:

    Special thanks to topiratiko for providing invaluable information
    and letting me bug him into the wee hours of the mornings
    testing new kernels. :good:


    v3.2
    WiFi toggle bug is a thing of the past (has been for weeks now on AJK actually...)
    Slide2Wake is now disabled while you are on a call.
    New Mali V2 drivers - best graphics performance on the i777.
    S4 code implemented for WiFi.

    I will have to populate this later as it somehow got removed while
    my thread was locked for maintenance.

    Please remember that this kernel was created for my friends & family to use, and I also share it here.

    You are not obligated to use it. If you do decide to use this kernel, that does not give you the right to be disrespectful.



    Please report any bugs that you find, and be sure to include a last_kmsg and/or logcat...it is impossible to troubleshoot without it.

    Reporting something 1 time is sufficient. If someone else has already reported it, you do not need to re-report the same bug.



    Remember the 2 primary rules here on XDA are:

    1) Be respectful.
    2) Use the search functions - both the XDA search and Google.



    If you are experiencing issues that no one else is having, then it is not the kernel at fault....

    ROM Devs:


    I request that anyone who includes this kernel in a firmware release does the following out of courtesy:
    1) Link to this thread
    2) Clearly indicate in your firmware changelog which AJK version is included in your firmware release. This lets users identify whether a fix is present in the kernel they're using or not.


    Kernel source new repo available here.
    Use the "master" branch.
    Compiled using the supplied linaro 12.x toolchain.

    Touchscreen Tuning process

    1. Open ExTweaks
    2. Select Screen tab
    3. Go to "Batt Move Filter", increase it BY ONE and apply
    4. Test it, if it still stutter, increase ONE STEP ONLY and apply
    5. Repeat step 4 till the stutter/jitter is gone. Don't set it too high as it'll result the touchscreen capability lost
    6. If "Batt Move Filter" is OK without any jitter again, connect your charger and go to "Chrg Move Filter"
    7. Repeat step 4 till you satisfied and again: DON'T SET IT TOO HIGH, ONLY INCREASE TILL THE JITTER/STUTTER IS GONE

    Do this at your own risk!
    If you lost the touch capability caused by too high value then you will need to reset ExTweaks profile in recovery.

    I can say its different for each device as the test shown:
    -My S2: Batt Filter 16 & Chrg Filter 50, stutter/jitter gone completely, below that value the screen is stuttering/jittering.
    -My son's S2: Batt Filter 13 & Chrg Filter 46, stutter/jitter gone completely, below that value the screen is stuttering/jittering.
    -My daughter's S2: Batt Filter 14 & Chrg Filter 48, stutter/jitter gone completely, below that value the screen is stuttering/jittering.
