Hi,

first of all, thank you so much for this awesome work. I'm running AOKP 2.02 and tried different kernels and governors (semaphore 0.81, Devil 1.0/1.1). With none of them oc was possible. But Glitch is stable so far, smooth and gives me the best experience. No liveOC but MaxCpu at 1200, fiops/GlitchOnDemand.

But the main reason I'm writing: I've had the BLN issues, too. Light goes off after 2sec. For those who own Neldar's pro app, blinking works like a charme. At least for me, perhaps it helps somebody else as well.

Regards Hicks

Default : FIOPS I/O sched + GlitchOndemand governor

But I want to ask which one is better (you think)?

NOOP + Conservative is also Good for me.

Has anyone tell me your choice (combination)?

Thanks.:)

does it mean the light does not go off with neldars pro app? or does it mean blinking works but only for 2 seconds?

No. I have BLN.apk, but it doesn't work using Glitch kernel.

With BLN Control Pro the blinking feature works as long as defined in the app's settings. At least on my phone.

i gave it a try. this works, but also only because bln pro is preventing the phone from going into deep sleep. no solution for me..
i hope the glitch team will have a look into this problem. what i would like to know is if there are users who do not have this problem..?

Hey Glitch,
what files did you change for this improvement in B4?

"- Fixes + various enhancements on I/O scheduling (up to 50% I/O speed improvement compared to beta 3)"

Quite interested in learning and tweaking ;)

Thanks!

I assumed that, too. For sure it's not the perfect solution, but as a workaround... I hope that there will be a fix. BLN is necessary for me.

Good night everybody.

    Changelogs :

    V14

    BETA 7 - Currently in development :

    - Upstream sync
    - Added mem increase mod by Kali (CM Team) - 384MB RAM available with 720p recording working. It does need a patch on the rom side to work though. Make sure your rom supports it or you'll get broken 720p recording
    - Force fast charging support - Thanks to Chad Froebel
    - Fixes for light sensor
    - Fascinate : Fixes for orientation sensor / Needs updated libs to work
    - Recovery backup really fixed this time
    - Fixup of our LiveOC code for selective LiveOC to be stabler and to most likely prevent memory corruption at low frequency resulting in GPU crash and/or reboots on some devices
    - Updated and fixed GlitchassV2 governor for it to work correctly with LiveOC
    - Added fixes on DIDLEv2 from Stratosk

    ...

    24/03/2012 - BETA 6 :

    - Upstream sync (modemctl, compass fix..)
    - Fixed BLN, and added blink support (available through NSTools)
    - Disabled Samsung sleep patches from Teamhacksung to prevent SODs
    - Fascinate : Ported ssewk2x phantom keypress filter code from Glitch V13.1
    - Vibrant : Merged GPS changes from FaultException
    - Moved back to Deadline ioshed as default to fix nandroid
    - Added Derteufel's selective LiveOC mod - It will prevent low frequency steps to OC, potentially providing enhanced stability and powersaving
    - Fixed potential bug in vfat fs driver
    - Fixed bug in ext4 fs driver
    - Merged some audio changes from Teamhacksung
    - Added touch support in Glitch recovery (incomplete)
    - Some cleaning

    22/02/2012 - BETA 5 :

    - Voice audio through dock, thanks to xcaliburinhand (should fix related issues with Glitch volume boost hack)
    - Renamed SmartassV2 governor to "GlitchassV2" to prevent latest NSTools version hanging
    - Added FranciscoFranco Conservative governor tweaks for more speed
    - Added a DIDLE enabler into screensate scaling script to kill BT in sleep and make DIDLE work with both TOP=ON and TOP=OFF. You'll need to enable screenstate scaling in Glitch menu from recovery in order to get DIDLE to use this (disabled by default). It's mostly for testing purposes - Feel free to report your experience with it.
    - Moved back to previous sysinit to prevent the DIDLE enabler script to make the phone hanging on the bootlogo. Also fixes screenstate scaling making the phone unbootable, and some SOD/COD issues for guys using some other tweaking scripts
    - Implemented BLN9 port from Derteufel with NSTools compatible sysfs. This way all the unsupported roms will get led notifications, and CMLed haters will hopefully stop to yell..
    - The flash-time script has been updated to be able to clean more stuff
    - A few fixes on the wifi driver to work better with our devices Please report your experience with DIDLE enabled. It may be required to disable DIDLE on some phones to prevent SOD/COD/softreboots or other instabilities. Also MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A DAMN GB BOOTLOADER !
    - Reverted modemctl changes from Teamhacksung - should fix data issues some are having

    21/02/2012 - BETA 4.1 :

    - Reverted sleep GPIO stuff from THS stock samsung port. Should fix SODs some are encountering.

    21/02/2012 - BETA 4 :

    - Fixes on LiveOC and custom voltage from Ezekeel
    - Fixes + various enhancements on I/O scheduling (up to 50% I/O speed improvement compared to beta 3)
    - Fixed touchscreen freezing randomly
    - Fixed various bugs here and there
    - Back from Eugene's DIDLE to Ezekeel's DIDLE v2 mod (available through NSTools again) -> You may encounter SoD if enabled with wifi ON.
    - Load balancing improvements
    - Updated FIOPS I/O sched
    - Sync with THS latest source

    09/02/2012 - BETA 3 :

    - LiveOC frequency steps changed again - Now all steps are using a 200MHz bus by default, so pushing liveOC % will give the same bus speed on all steps
    - Default Int voltage for 1GHz set to Samsung's default to fix instability on bad overclocker devices
    - Fixed recovery not displaying long lists items as well as cosmetic fixes - updated to latest source from Koush
    - Fixed init.d support

    - Some writeback quickfixes
    - Updated wifi drivers with added net fixes and optimizations
    - GlitchOndemand polling tweaking for more stability

    - Fixed GlitchOndemand polling to fix stability issues some are encountering
    - i/o-less dirty throttling backport from linux 3.2 (thanks to Franciscofranco)
    - Added dynamic writeback & various writeback fixes

    - Added color adjustments to Nexus S framebuffer.
    - Dock audio stuff back in.
    - Cleanup.

    PREVIEW #2 :

    25/12/2011 - V14 Preview #1

    - Compatible with Teamhacksung's ICS/CM9 builds 10 or higher.

    - Now using linux 3.0.8 base from the Nexus S drop
    - Upstream synced to the latest from THS (TVout, cleanup, 3.0 port..)
    - Reverted to stock CM LED Notifications (fixing all the previous problems some users encountered with BLN) / No more BLN app needed, enabled by default.
    - Removed Voodoo Color, and back to stock implementation.
    - Added support for a new low power mode on wifi chipset, enhancing signal reception and stability, at the cost of a bit higher power consumption.
    - Back to NEON mfpu for now
    - Full support for init.d scripts
    - Readahead value back to 1024 for better results (SDcard read Cache)
    - Fixed headset buttons
    - Fixed randomly freezing softkeys
    - Big cleanup and rewrite of some stuff
    - Removed the 200MHz lock when the GPU is active for battery life. Depending on your launcher and/or widgets, you'll get some slowdowns. Change min freq to 200 to fix it.

    Major additions, ported from Ezekeel's work on the Nexus S (thanks Morfic !) :

    You will need NSTools app, available for free on the market, or here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1333696

    - Added "LiveOC" system, giving access to GPU/bus overclocking on the fly, per 1% step.
    - Added "Custom Voltage" control, giving access to ARM and Internal voltage undervoling and overvolting. (This makes the previous leakage system obsolete, which is now removed.)
    - Added "Battery life eXtender" mod, allowing the user to limit the maximum charge percentage to preserve the battery life (not the battery runtime obviously)
    - Added support for DIDLE V2, a very low power mode that will help battery life in many idle/semi-idle cases.
    - Lazy governor sysfs, to enable or disable the frequency ramping up when screen is off (to end tasks quicker to sleep faster).


    Keep in mind CM9 is at early stages of development and contains many bugs still.
