Is there a reason the ICS 2 Kernel for E10i is 2Mb bigger than the ICS 1 Kernel (and the previous gingerbread kernels for that matter, or the ICS kernel for the E15). I'm trying to understand the reason for that
Second, I tried to make a call from my E10 to my housephone... i cancelled the call via the callscreen, but it kept ringing, and the phone-icon was still in the notificationbar. When i tried to pull down the notification-bar my screen went blank, pressed home to get it back on, pulled down the notification-bar again and it went blank again. (Just glad i set to end call via power-button before i tried).
the kernel boot animation is about 2MB, this is why the new kernel is heavier
Looks awesome though... backport it into the gb kernels
thank you for your reply
I would like to try the ICS rom but i use the camcorder frequently and in this rom doesn't work.
Is a limito of ICS or is under develope and probably in the future nAa will solve this problem?
the problem is with hardware encoding, nAa is working on it, but we actually can't say if it will be fixed soon or never ...

BUG
the screen stuck in rebooting dialog. It should just rebooting
ACTION
press home key (or any key maybe) to make it reboot
Please flash this kernel via flashtool

dr.norton said:in brief, if your regional settings (on windows) don't correct (or let's say english localisation) you can't see the inner files of the main ftf file like kernel.sin & loader.sin in the flashtool, consequently you can't flash the ftf.
if someone can't see the *.sin files of a *.ftf file, he should change his regional settings of his system. that's all
If you want to enable automatic brightness via cm9 settings follow these steps:
Settings --> display--> brightness
-Enable automatic brightness
-Enable ultra brightness
Settings --> display --> automatic blacklight
-Enable Use custom level
-Enable Allow light decrease
-Screen dim levels...: follow this settings:
Don't forget to Save & apply

Hi,
I tried a few things and managed to make the lights work this way:
1 - Settings > Display > Automatic Backlight .
LIGHT SENSOR FILTER mark ''Enable''
LIGHT LEVELS mark ''Use custom''
mark ''Allow light decrease'',
2 - Settings > Display > Automatic Backlight > Decrease hysteresis
Mark ''0%''
3 - Settings > Display > Brightness
Mark ''Automatic brighness''
OK, The keyboard lights should work !

Q: What are the benefits of using swap? Do I get performance improvements?
A: Using swap essentially increases the amount of memory available for your Android system and applications. What it does, is that it allows you to have more open apps at a given time without the need to kill older apps or HOME (causing redraws when you hit HOME). In essence, it improves the multitasking experience for low RAM phones.
Swap is kept on the sdcard which is by no means as fast as the RAM memory of your phone. So it does NOT improve performance scores.
Q: What is the best sdcard for swap? What size should I use?
A: The best sdcard is the one with the higher write speed. Usually you need at least a class 6 sdcard to see some improvement. This does not mean that swap won't work on slower sdcards, however things will get laggy when stuff are swapped in or out.
The size to use really depends on your usage. For normal usage, 64MB should be enough for having 3-4 apps open at any time. If you need to run heavy apps, consider 128MB or 256MB. At any case you can experiment and find whichever option works best for you.
Q: So, what do I need to do to make swap work?
A: Enabling Swap under MiniCM9 is a piece of cake: Settings -> Performance -> Memory Management -> Swap Settings
There you can select the size, enable or disable, or check the current swap info.
You do NOT need a swap partition. You do NOT need swapper or any other thirdparty apps/scripts. All can be done via the Settings menu.
At boot, if a swapfile is found it's used. At shutdown/usb mass storage, if swap is enabled, it's cleanly disabled so that the sdcard can be unmounted as it should.
Q: Sounds complicated... Do I need to activate swap?
A: No. MiniCM9 will work perfectly with or without swap as it does e.g. with or without overclocking. Swap is yet another cool performance-related feature
Hi folks!
MiniCM9 along with the nAa-ics kernel, includes some interesting performance improvement points:
- System -> Performance -> Processor -> CPU governor and frequency --> SmartassV2 is suggested. Overclocking can be set as higher as your device can take
- System -> Performance -> Processor -> Undervolting --> Enable this to get better battery life
- System -> Performance -> Memory management -> zRam (Compcache) --> By default this is set to 18% in order to provide more physical memory (RAM)
- System -> Performance -> Kernel samepage merging -> Enable this to get smaller memory footprint due to memory sharing among apps (Note that this might increase battery consumption)
ICS is memory hungry, so the more memory we can get, the better the experience will be
