I think this would work but break compatibility with other roms. By the way it has a typo, first line:

Code:

mkdir -p $INITRAMFS/system/lib/modules

Edit: I agree, better have both lines to ensure full compatibility.

Yes it will break all other ROMs unless both are there

again, there seems to be an issue with mount points on CM9 as well..

When I flashed Siyah RC5, and did the driver swap in the system files, all was well except a few select games, and apps disappeared from my system (probably due to the changed mount points in the latest cm9 nightly.)

So, even if you do get the WIFI fixed, you have a whole 'nother bug hunt to get the mount points corrected for full latest CM9 compatibility ... Hmph.

--I flashed back to CM9 stock kernel and my apps and games reappeared (using kernel cleaning script of course) I then deleted the duplicate files created by some of my app's confusion... lol

I'm underclocked to 1000mhz using performance in ROM Control to set at boot, but CPUSpy is still showing 1200mhz as being used. I saw in the change log that I thought that was fixed. I'm running with tasks AOKP 4/18. Other than that I've had no wifi issues reported earlier. I downloaded at about 10:55est when it seems a fix was posted at 10:46 so I should be good with wifi. Other than that this kernel is running great. I had awesome battery life on rc2.

There does seem to be an error with the over clocking others reported the same on older builds.

And you never had the wifi problem as it was isolated to the newest cm9 nightly. It will trickle down to aokp eventually as they are cm9 based but not for a little while

Edit: oops sorry i missed that s...

I have not tested nightly 5 but im assuming the problem will carry over unless you made a change. Whoever flashed rc 5 can check to see if they have those files in the second folder. If they do then we are golden

As to the mount point deal, i dont think that is kernel related. App data is a rom specific thing i think. Id have to look at the kernel tree again but it would seem like those of us on cm9 will have to make the switch as the dev team seem to have adopted the new mount points... Do a titanium full wipe and restore and hope they dont switch it again.

Edit 2: reread... Huh ill have to look into it tomorrow as to the apps disappearing. Didnt think the kernel had the.... Oh... Brain blast... Kernel has the initramfs and loads init... Ill have to take a second look tho to really find the problem

To clarify though wifi switch fully fixes the wifi aspect? Right?

That is pretty common for all kernels at the moment as they use a common code to control frequency.

Well, SOMETHING in the kernel is causing apps to disappear... CM9 and Siyah really aren't playing nicely right now. I'm telling you. Just spent 5 hours trying to fix it... :FACEPALM:

www.gokhanmoral.com/gm/

^^ it says here in the changelog that the latest FINAL version is to include a fix for the latest CM9... Since this is RC5, and there's still an RC6 between us and the final... the fix HAS to be in there somewhere... But the source isn't on Github, so we have no idea where to start looking yet.

again. I'M sticking to the CM9 stock kernel until this is fixed. Using Siyah is causing duplicate files between my internal and external storage, and is making certain apps disappear (regardless of where they were installed) - it's very strange...

and to answer your question - yes. Putting those files in their respective places makes WIFI start to work - but there's more to this puzzle than just wifi. :-(

I know I can get more, but I'm tired and need sleep

Apply cpu on boot checked?

No issues with rc5 since flashing last night. Touch screen sensitivity seems much improved (more GB like). Thanks again, ktoon

Hi, has anything tried this kernel on Omega ROM? If yes, which version and how is the experience?

You're running AOKP still right? I'm wondering if anyone with CM9 nightly 19 has installed RC5 yet. I'd like to know how they are working together. I'd see myself but I did a full wipe yesterday and I don't want to go breaking things (WIFI) etc just yet.

Working fine here. Had to copy the modules in root explorer to get wireless.
Instructions are a few posts back.

Yes and I switched from using ROM control to using setcpu.

Yup, still running AOKP(latest build)

Thanks bro that's what I want to avoid. I'm holding out for 3.1

You are welcome

I would recommend waiting as I think this rc5 has the battery drain by blnww implementation.

you can you rc5 just don't activate bln. been using rc5 since yesterday and battery is slightly better than rc2 and my batt life on rc2 was awesome.

The drain happens regardless if you use bln or not. It's due to the implementation of blnww.

I will test further as I'm not sure if the kernel is the culprit of the barter drain I experienced overnight

Anyone verify Rc5+CM9 4-20? =) Everything working again?

tmckenn2 · Apr 20, 2012

No the kernel must be edited to fix wifi out if the box... But it can be used with the module fix.

Mount points aren't changing. Bite the bullet and make the switch now... Shouldn't affect too much
