Hi,
little question guys: How is battery life with V3? Any comparison to Speedmod 3-3 (which was amazingly long in my case)? Any battery drains so far? (Over)Heat problems?Anyone?

v3 has been online for jsut 30 minutes.
nobody can judge battery in 30 minutes
Anyway, this is a PERFORMANCE kernel, you cannot expect abttery to last as long as other NON PERFORMANCE kernels.
Besides, most people who have given feedback on battery life on my kernels have all been pleased :good:
I noticed that even with v3, you can change via script init.id the values of various parameters of the governor.
In the future you will add this feature?

Just Flashed V3 EX onto RR7........... all OK
I have flashed V3 EX onto my N7000 running Rocket Rom 7.
All okay at the moment......... smooth and fast!!!!!!
I flashed over the top of Speedmod 3-7 using CWM.
Ran JBROID script first.
Then installed V3 EX.
CPU Spy is showing 1600MHz active.
CPU also going into Deep Sleep so all is good.
I don't trust the benchmark software so I don't know the AnTuTu score etc.
I don't use the FM radio so I don't know if that is working.
I don't use custom boot animation so don't know if that works.
I do use custom boot sound and that does work.
Excellent.
Looking forward to seeing what the battery performance is like.
Cheers Gavin.

Hi,
Erm...yes you can. If there is a massive drain you will see that in less than 30 Minutes. Besides, Speedmod always was a fast hence "performance"-kernel and had a great battery life. So I honestly don't think that one excludes the other, does it?
Anyways, I'll give it a shot in a couple of hours and see for myself.

Be patient please. There is drain in any new Kernel installation until things settle down... I takes at least a few hours to do so.

Hi,
I just upgraded to v3 standard version, but something wrong with custom bootanimation, it continues rolling and rolling, I can't reach homescreen, but meantime, when I connect device to PC, I can access it from My computer...
can anyone please give me link to 2.15 kernel (I deleted it....)
I just checked: called to my phone, it rings, I even answerd call, but on screen there is only custom bootanimation...
OK, I'l Downgrade to 2.15, but how can I delete custom bootanimation to upgrade to v3 further?

erm, NO YOU CANT
after flashing this kernel, it wipes the cache and dalvik cache. That means that when you reboot, apps are probably going to run more intensively for a good amount of time, rechecking for updates in the backgroud, loading and unloading themselves, rebuilding their cahces, updateing from facebook, twitter, etc etc
therefore more CPU useage
OK, I found v 2.15 on my laptop, and downgraded to it with PC Odin, now, I want update to v3, but I want to remove custom bootanimation, how to do it?
Hi,
@g.lewarne
Erm, yes, you can Again, Speedmod 3-3 had that for maybe 5-10 Minutes and then it was ready to go, lasted for almost 46 hours after a clean wipe and install.
So chill out, don't take it too personal - it wasn't even criticism! I just asked how it behaves compared to Speedmod. I'm glad there are people like you working on different kernels and I appreciate the good work!
Oh and by the way: I'm pretty sure you had the kernel longer than 30 minutes so someone has a clue if it drains a lot of battery after the typically "settling in"-time

seriously, i dont care if you think you were not being personal, you came across badly in your posts.
And no, speedmod kernel does NOT wipe cache and dalvik (unless you do it yourself) when you install it.
And actually, this kernel has exactly the same voltages / speeds as my previous ones so battery life should be identical
AFTER IT HAS SETTLED
asking about battery life after just 30 mins of release (and it was just 30 mins) is frankly, nonsensical
I haven't tried V3 yet but just wanted to say you're a don. Nice work mate will test FM radio etc when I get a chance (well that wasn't what I was after but the other coolness) cheers mate!
Hi,
dude, chill out! I was just asking a question. If you don't want any questions in your thread maybe you should say so! I was asking politely and calmly if anyone (including you) has a good thought about the performance, heating issues and corresponing battery life. You as the developer should know it, you had the kernel for more than 30 minutes didn't you?
I didn't think asking questions to a developer on a forum is not that big a deal... but unfortunately I obviously got it wrong. Pretty sad if the only thing you react positively about is people saying "Awesome, running great" or "super smooth" after the same amount of time (30 minutes) - which should be as nonsensical as asking about battery life following your logic.
But don't worry, won't ask any questions anymore and read silently...

Introducing HydraCore - the first kernel for all ROM types for the Galaxy Note GT-N7000 !
Q&A THREAD (click here)
Please refer to this thread only for non-development chat. Failing to do so will result in your post being removed by the moderator constantly monitoring this thread
General Features:
- Built from latest samsung Note sources
- Multiboot InitramFS for all rom types
- Patches for full functionality for all rom types
- Supports Touchwiz ICS, AOKP, AOSP, CM9 , CM10, JellyBean, ParanoidAndroid, MIUI roms
- OC/UV version and a Standard frequencies/voltages version
- Full root
- Magical elves and wizardry**
Kernel Features
- Noop scheduler default
- Tweaked OnDemand governor default
- Lots of IO tweaks
- Lots of kernel scheduler tweaks
- Adjusted all cpu voltage tables (OC kernel only)
- Realtime cpu temperature, board temperature readouts and VoltGroup information in settings>about>kernel version
- Optimised VM memory setting
- Optimised Global block readahead
- CIFS support with UTF8
- Voltages and frequencies now in userspace for Voltage Coltrol app / AOKP direct support
- lots, and lots of other tweaks (see full source)
CWM Features

- Select between .dep and .tar backups. TAR backups recommended!
- Fully working
THIS KERNEL HAS MMC_CAP_ERASE REMOVED AND IS FULLY SAFE FOR ALL WIPES ON ALL ROM TYPES
Kernel Installation
Install either through CWM or PC/Mobile ODIN in the usual manner. Wiping Cache and Dalvik Cache is unnecessary and wont make any difference. Flash only with 25% or more charge on the phone
Installation routine for the rom of your choice
- Either flash HydraCore or have a kernel installed with CWM
- Download your ROM of choice, follow any specific rom installation instructions (in the ROM thread OP) and flash with CWM
- Flash HydraCore in CWM or with Mobile / PC Odin
Kernel Versions
There are two versions of this kernel, one with native OC/UV and one with standard (stock) frequencies. If you are new to this kernel, flash the STD (standard) version first, as this will work with all phones.
As you become more experienced, you might want to try the OC/UV kernel, which sets the maximum CPU speed to 1600Mhz and Maximum GPU speed to 400mhz. The OC/UV kernel is undervolted, and in some circumstances can offer significant performance improvements. However, it *may* use more battery and you phone will get a little warmer.
CPU Frequencys and how they are used
Not all apps/games force the CPU to ramp up to the highest frequency (1.4 or 1.6 GHz, depending on the kernel variant you flashed). For example, while playing Temple Run, Coin Dozer and Mutant Roadkill, the CPU will mostly stay at 600 / 800 MHz. Even while playing intensive games like Pocket Legends, the CPU will stay at 600 / 800 MHz most of the time, with the CPU ramping all the way up to the maximum frequency only when very intensive graphics occur, which is like 20% of the time.
Downloads:
STANDARD Kernel (no OC)
v7 CWM Zip - http://hecubus.com/xda/kernel/HydraCore/GL_HYDRACORE_v7_STD.zip
OC/UV kernel (with overclock / undervolt)
v7 CWM Zip - http://hecubus.com/xda/kernel/HydraCore/GL_HYDRACORE_v7_OC.zip
Known Issues
- Button Backlights in TouchWiz ROMS
Setting the "Touch key light duration" to "Always Off / Always On" will not behave as such. The touch keys will light up and stay like that for up to three seconds if touched directly. Touching / unlocking the screen will not cause them to light up. On non-TouchWiz ROMs, this behavior has not been detected.
REPORTING BUGS
When reporting a bug, please provide the following information
- The ROM you are using
- The kernel version (oc / std)
- Your phones voltage group (settings > about > kernel information)
Failing to provide this information will result in your post most likely being ignored - remember we cannot help you if you cannot provide us with information we need
Other information, history and for German speakers
You can find the complete history of this kernel, with all older changelogs and news, all translated into German by our friend Atonal at this link. You will also find a complete download set of all versions of my kernels at the same place! brilliant

Kernel Kitchen, Full Source code and GPL:
Basically i can't be bothered with GitHub so I make my entire build directory, build scripts and initramfs available in one complete package. This is compliant with the GPL licence.
You can unpack the package to any folder anywhere on your system. You will need a cross compiler toolchain installed, and set the Makefile in source/Makefile point to the cross compiler location. Codesourcery's arm-none-linux-gnueabi 2012/03 release is recommended.
Read the README-INSTRUCTIONS file, and from a root terminal, run the menu.sh script. The rest is obvious :good:
The source packages contain the following
- Kernel kitchen
- Unmodified reference source
- Modified files directory
- Working source directory
- a .patch which you can use to patch any other sources with (includes ALL changes)
- Initramfs
Kernel kitchen source package FTP directory and downloads -

DISCLAIMER
By flashing any custom kernel you understand the risks involved. As with any flash, there is always a small risk that something could go wrong and/or data loss. I am in no way responsible for any damages, loss of data, brickage, loss of work or any other loss associated with any faults due to the installation of this software.
**magical elves were harmed in the making of this kernel**88HOLY COWBAGS BATMAN !!!!
So, during my experimenting, not only have i implemented R3P0 mali drivers sucessfully
BUT IT WILL ALSO WORK FOR TW ROMS AS WELL NOW!
yeah baby yeah!
This means....im not quite gone yet, ill maintain the kernel until i get my note2 but Hydra is reborn!
There is one caveat however - i cannot distrivute the new kernel as ODIN tar's, only ZIPs as I have to replace some system files for the new mali drivers to work on all roms
ah, this was just the breakthrough i needed for my confidence
I still have some thigns to work on, and once released im no longer going to be doing daily, even weekly updates - they will be as-and-when bugs crop up that need squashing !
This was going to be my final "suprise" for you all but im too excited80i see some more arguments breaking out... this is very disappointing.
Do we really need pages and pages of "i have lag" ? i have already confirmed that I have also seen it. Do some of you think im just ignoring it?
Many of you are making comments / bug reports that often I cannot replicate and / or have not head of from many of the more "regular" members of this thread. If i cant replicate it, and it isnt reported from those people whom i know understand how this whole development thing works then im inclined to disbelieve it.
Let us not forget that all of the JellyBean builds, of any rom type are still not final, heck they arent even RC stage yet. Most of the "issues" some of you are reporting are blatantly ROM issues.
As far as "jellyCore" support - dont forget that i do not compile it from source, im just hacking up a build that Anti very kindly provides for me and sharing it. I dont make it, i dont edit it, i just modify it.
As far as my posting frequency goes, frankly, I have had enough of trying to accomodate everyone. I see the bug reports, and the ones that I can confirm and / or fix I am working on.
I cant be on XDA 24/7 to baby you all through everything, Im 31, have a full time job and a partner, and a dog. Before i was spending too much time on XDA, now im more equally balancing things out.
Frankly it pee's me off immensly seeing the endless debacle of nonsense perpetuating this thread. Thats why im ignoring it most of the time. You know last week I almost packed it in entirely seeing the never ending amount of whining, whinging and frankly disrespectul posts. I do this for free, i rarely get donations, and i spend a LOT of time on all my XDA stuff I could very easily ask mods to close this thread, and all my others and just leave, but I dont out of a sort of loyalty to some of you and the community as a whole.
Anyway, having looked at the sources for the Note2 (that was in Hydra v5 with broken video camera) I think I have found a solution and am testing now. I also think i have fixed lag issues, as well as some other things that were working suboptimally.
/RANT61YESSSSSSSSS
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
i have fixed TW lights! FINALLY! tested myself on stock LR6, Cleanote 6 and my own AOKP build all now works normally!
HURR bloody AAAAHHHHH
ill check out the new mali drivers, but i cant see there being any significant difference in performance - given that a diff comparison between old and new reveals minimal changes. Will look into this!
