Dear all,

As I have already distributed the v1.6b1 (beta 1) to some (many?) of members a week ago. I have been requested to open a new thread such that I could highlight what have been changed and let all testers to express their feelings and opinions to the new kernel in this centralized thread.

First, let me introduce the features of "The New Kernel" ... (not The New iPad)...

1. Stabilized the voltage & frequency setting such that the 'stock' voltage is used without affecting OC stability.
2. As different machine's CPUs are different, OC to 1.35Ghz is not the most stable setting. Instead, 1.3Ghz will be the max.
3. Remove some of the useless codes used in v1.5
4. Pick some of the code difference from the official XWLA4 kernel :eek:
5. Add in support to read NTFS & CIFS file system
6. Switch to use the SLUB allocator
7. Disable ipv6 (unless I am told to add it back)
8. Other minor bug fixes

Next, let me conclude some of the comments from members on the beta:

1. Works fine with Titanium ROM 2.1
2. Undervolted it to 750mv @ 608mhz, more stable than v1.5
3. More smooth than v1.5
4. Not as warm as v1.5, so far so 'cool' in temperature
5. No lag, no freeze

So, welcome for more opinions, discussions and findings and let's discuss here. If everything goes right, I will release v1.6 within a few days :)

** Updated: v1.6b2 has been sent out to around 10 testers for testing :)

help..............

first i used 1200 frequency on interactive profile on 1.5, i have no lags but just test 1.6 the same frequency i find some lags in adw transition and also battery is drain out very fast............................

Thanks for your report.

As I think you are the only one experiencing that. Could you please elaborate more on the situation. Example: the SetCPU setting / profile setting / screenshot. Lag, how lag, and have you wipe the cache before flashing the new kernel? Have you tried to flash back v1.5 and see the situation. Also, battery drain is fast is strange as I use 'lower' voltage setting that v1.5.

Please help to test more and provide more information such that we could help in fixing the problem. Thanks. :)

when firstly i installed this i didn't format cache then restore to 1.5 but see ur instruction i format cache and again flash 1.6 since 2 hours flashing it runs quite smoothly now ....... in set cpu i have used 1200 mhz frequency and interactive profile but i doesn't change any voltage.......... please insist me if i have to change voltage either or frequency........

I tested frequency 1100 mhz and I must admit it's unbelievable how much boost i performance gives you clocking with just 100 mhz. I would say it's relatively the most efficient frequency. (if you compare differences between 1 and 1,1 ghz, and then 1,1 and 1,2 ghz).

I'm still on stock kernel, but will most likely update to ardatdat's 1.6 when released.
Is the performance boost perceived boost under general usage or is it synthetic benchmarks such as Antutu?

It was so funny. If v1.6 is not released, maybe you could all blame him for it.

    *** To all beta testers ***

    First, thanks for your tests during these days and valuable feedback have been collected.

    I will soon send out v1.6 beta 2 to all beta testers (maybe a few hours later), please check your PM for that and please help to test for it.

    New in v1.6 beta 2:
    ===============
    - Add script to wipe cache and dv-cache when flashing the kernel
    - No worry, will not wipe any of your personal data
    - You will experience longer boot up (only the first time after you have flashed, because dv-cache is wiped)
    - Increase stability and smoothness by fine tuning parameters in 1.1Ghz

    Again, don't hesitate to give me 'thanks' :D & leave any comments here. Thanks very much for all of your valuable test & response. Thanks.

    Some updates on the progress.

    Yesterday, I have some time to make up the kernel source. I discovered a complete source for the newest XWLA4 kernel.

    So, I am now patching the source and will release a beta 3 soon (based on XWLA4). Stay tuned :)
