The link would just be a copy of the ROM so I can load it up... Also see if lag exists prior to smurfing.

ok. I'm gonna have to upload it so I'll get back to you ASAP.
Also there doesn't seem to be lag prior to smurfing. Also only seems to affect SmartassV2. Anyways...
One of these days I'm going to have to look under the hood of Smurf and see what's happening in there, might save me some headaches.

Smurf try to load battery saving settings for smartassV2. Every time I tried to make any change in the script for smartassV2 it got really laggy. If you open the 45 smurf file in etc/init.d and remove the section with the govner tweaks the lag will go away after reboot.

Touchscreen?
I don't know if anyone has noticed this, or if it's just me.
I seem to occasionally have issues with my touchscreen being unresponsive. My phone screen will be off, and I'll press the power button to unlock, but when I touch the screen to try and drag the ring to unlock, the screen acts as if I only tapped it, rather than the drag action. I noticed this behavior on MikG, and even on Classic using the classic kernel, which I thought was weird, since that one's mostly stock. On Classic, when I tried to drag the bar down on the lockscreen, it'll get to the bottom of the page, but it won't unlock the device. If I press the power button to screen off, and then turn it back on, usually the screen responds again.
Is it possible the kernel mods for multi-touch are somehow causing this issue? I'm running the stock kernel right now, and ever since I flashed it, I haven't had the issue. Has anyone else seen this. or is it just me? Maybe I need to try a different governor. I've mostly been using interactiveX or smartass v2, I also tried intellidemand, and it didn't seem to matter - I still had occasional unresponsiveness.
Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated. I want to confirm the stock kernel is good before flashing back to 0.4 and trying it again. Hopefully someone will have some input by then, so I know if I'm just going crazy
.
Thanks, ca1ne for the great kernels - SBC was the big thing missing from the Sense kernels, and you made it happen!

Quick question, are you running this on the phone or in a boot manager slot... I have unresponsiveness when using boot manager especially when sense its in the slot.. Aosp seems more responsive.
I have those exact same symptoms if I'm using a Sense Rom in a Boot Manager slot. The lock screen may take a second to unlock.
I also use InteractivX as my governor most times.
I just assumed it was lag due to being in a Boot Manager slot.

Ya I agree I've never had too much success with sense in a boot manager slot

I actually stopped using BootManager because I thought that might be it, but I still had the issue using only MikG on my device. But I'm beginning to think there's just an issue with my touchscreen.

do you need a sleep profile for this setup?
and do we really need to do vipermod?

You dont have to use vipermod unless you want to try to lower the voltages to get more battery life. Some phones dont like much undervolt so ymmv. Just make sure you have a nand of your stable setup before playing. I never use any profiles even when using ondemand and my phone sleeps fine. Profiles are just something else running in the bg imo.
Thanks buck, i'll leave it as is for the moment and maybe try vipermod later if i still want to stretch battery life. Is there a downside of undervolting like lags?

Same setup I run and I experience the same type of issue. It'll lock-up during some app operation as well. Had to pull the battery a few times. Haven't tried the stock kernel, though

In my experience with Boot Manager, it all depends on what SD card you have (not just class).
I had an 8g SanDisk class 4 and Sense & AOSP ROMs ran fine. I bought a PNY 16g class 10 and Sense ROMs would barely run (constantly freeze up), but AOSP were fine. I returned the PNY and got a 32g SanDisk class 4 and both run fine again.

You would get lag and likely reboots. But all phones seem to act different. I flashed insanemod with vipermod and have no issues but seems some are having problems without lowering voltages. Just play around with it and try it out for a day or two and see how it goes.
@Captain_Throwback
Do you happen to be charging your phone when the screen stops responding. That's usually when I've seen that issue (I actually experienced it just now), I usually have to unplug my phone and turn the screen off/on for it to start working. I've seen this behavior on the stock kernel as well.

I actually have had the same exact issue with this kernel on my phone that captain has. I've tried, oc, underclocking, different gonvernors, schedulers, etc. It happened on previous versions too, however the classic worked great for me, no lag at all on that one. I think my phone just doesn't like this one. I do know that I couldn't ever run the more aggressive nets kernels, I had the same outcome with that kernel that I have with this one.
The sbc worked great, trickle charged all night and stay at 100% like 2-3 hours after unplugging, battery dropped off at that but I think that has something to do with my setup. It's like that on no matter what kernel I use, I haven't full wiped in awhile.
BTW I'm on MikG 3.11 and my red inverted red theme I made.
I'm actually on Classic kernel 1.2 using MikG 3.11 completely stock. I had the exact same thing happen to me this morn, while it was still on the charger I tried to unlock and the ring bounced like I just did a tap. Un-plugged it from the charger and turned off the screen and it worked after that. Tried turning off the screen while still plugged in, but no go.

I get messed up touchscreen a lot while plugged in as well, doesn't matter the kernel, ROM,aosp/sense... Swype is almost unusable sometimes for me...

Instructions
Apply with your preferred custom recovery.
For Kernel Install
Make sure to wipe Dalvik Cache and Cache.
For SBC
And make sure the phone is fully booted before plugging it in.
For HAVS with sysfs interface
You will be able to use Vipermod to change the voltages. To be able to save changes you will need a rom with init.d support baked in. The kernel has already been undervolted, but since everyone results vary depending on their devices, this interface will allow you to drop it lower, just like you have been able to in the AOSP roms.
For Audio Boost to turn on and off
For USB Fast Charge to turn on and offCode:Audio Boost On echo 1 > /sys/kernel/audio_boost/aboost Audio Boost Off echo 0 > /sys/kernel/audio_boost/aboost Query Audio Boost Status cat /sys/kernel/audio_boost/aboost
The below code will toggle it in the terminal, but a cool way to turn it on and off would be to support the original dev who put this mod together, chad0989 by purchasing his widget that controls this version of usb fast charge as well as the patch version. LINK TO WIDGET
Thanks to Capt_Throwback for finding out a reason for some of the lag complaints. It appears that the Vipermod script installs an older copy of busybox onto the phone. I have attached a copy of the vipermod install script that does not install any busybox.Code:USB Fast Charge On echo 1 > /sys/kernel/fast_charge/fast_charge_usb USB Fast Charge Off echo 0 > /sys/kernel/fast_charge/fast_charge_usb Query USB Fast Charge Status cat /sys/kernel/fast_charge/fast_charge_usb

Github19Updated OP to v08.
Please note specifically the addition of EXT4. if you use a2sd you can type: a2sd check
in the terminal app, and if it says EXT4 yes, then your rom and kernel now can run EXT4.
I have also compiled some No HAVS versions for those who have difficulty running underworld
please try these out, their voltages can not be modified, hopefully this will allow others who have
been running classic/nitrous due to their phone's restrictions to have some fun on underworld.
Please let me know how this version runs for you, thanks.18I think I found a flaw in many of the implementations of init.d support in sense roms..
It almost appears that init.d only runs on first boot and then is disabled..
Example. If I format all partitions except sdcard, flash a fresh ROM, flash my test kernel that includes a script, then boot, the script makes the changes.. If I then make changes in the script and reboot, I get no further changes..
Example 2. I format all partitions except sdcard, flash a fresh ROM, do a first time boot, go back to recovery, flash test kernel with the script, upon next boot, no modifications are made.
When I get time I'm going to play with the ram disk of a ROM, repackage it with the setup I found in CM7, and see if it works... If it does then we have a solution to get rid of needing to use script manager and other apks.
though if that is true, would need the ROM devs to update their roms... Though I could make some boot.imgs for popular roms...
So I am excited to see if this theory works..especially since the test kernel has a configurable file that let's you turn on and off audio boost, usb fast charge, governor, scheduler, etc18Updated to v0.3
I was trying to figure out how to get the front facing camera to work before releasing, but i haven't cracked it yet, and with the updated source up to possibly a month or so out I figured I should update what I have done already... please let me know if smartassv2 behaves better now

Tips and Tricks
1. If you are usinig V6 SuperCharger with kernel I/O tweaks. Please uninstall the I/O Scheduler tweak. Failure to do so may casue random reboots. (Thanks Kelldane)
2. Please navigate to the system/etc folder and scroll down until you find the init.post_boot.sh file and either delete it or move it to a safe place on your sd card. More Info (Thanks Leeboy)
3. When using smurf, do not use the battery saving settings for Smartass V2 otherwise in most cases it will generate lag on that governor. If you open the 45smurf file in etc/init.d and remove the section with the governer tweaks the lag will go away after reboot. (Thanks Pennie77)
4. Ensure that your busybox binary is up to date. (Thanks Capt_Throwback)
