[OLD - DEPRECATED][Kernel]ZedomaxEpicTouchKernel[v6.02][1.6GhzOC]

---

So, I've compiled a new overclockable kernel off xda users's NeoPhyTe.x360 SG2 kernel, this should give you better battery life and also performance when you needed.

Video Tour:


Video Update on v3:


Video of custom boot animations on v3:


Video Update on CWM v2:


For those of you who weren't getting good battery life and also wasn't getting performance, this kernel should help.

At stock 1.2Ghz (with no setCPU), you can get your performance back, getting like near 3400 on Quadrant without overclocking.

*Note - As always, this is experimental kernel, flash it at your risk but you can always completely unroot back to stock.

Features:
Root+SU (yes, roots your phone too if coming from stock)
Latest ClockworkMod Recovery (USB Mount working)
To get into recovery, hold down Volume Up and Power button together until you see blue menus.
Can be overclocked to 1.6Ghz usig setCPU.
Long battery life with 200-1200 Mhz ondemand
Better Battery Life 15-30% more battery life
Support for custom boot animation
Superuser 3.0 plus binaries
init.d support

Download kernel tar file here and flash with Odin or zip file with CWM:

MAKE SURE TO REBOOT AT LEAST ONCE AFTER FLASHING!!!

Instructions on changing boot animation on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1273612

v6.02beta Adjusted voltages to be less aggressive.

v6.01beta CWM5 Recovery +1.6OC+Bootanimation.zip support, Superuser 3.0 + binaries Pre-rooted + Battery Optimizations
zip for CWM:

For v6.01beta, it's still beta but need testers.

v6 includes latest blue CWM, modified CPU steps and voltages. You will need to really drain your battery all the way then recharge, hit Menu->Statistics to reset your battery stats in Battery Monitor widget.

You can run Ondemand at 1.2Ghz max/200Mhz min for best battery life in SetCPU or just run it without the app.

If you want performance and best battery life, I would try 1.4Ghz max/200Mhz min.

Of course, if you run at 1.5 or 1.6Ghz, you won't get great battery life because that just sends a ton of voltage to the CPU. But it can be great for 3D games, if you got your charger connected, set it on 1.5Ghz or 1.6Ghz performance mode in SetCPU for the most fantastic overclocked gaming experience.

Not all E4GT supports 1.6Ghz but most should support 1.5Ghz.

Should give you better battery life over stock, that's the theory. Let me know in the thread what your results are like, will keep tweaking until we can get at least 30-40% more battery life out of this bad boy.

v.4 and v.5 - skipped due to bugs.
v.3
-Added USB Mount to CWM
-Superuser 3.0 + su binaries updated to latest (so it won't clash with other kernels)
-Custom Boot animation support (copy over bootanimation.zip file to /system/media directory)

v.2
Added CWM, access by holding down Volume Up and Power button together for 10 seconds.

v.1
Stock recovery+Superuser+SU root+
- Overclocking support up to 1.6gz 4000+ Quadrant
- Enhanced battery life with/without overclocking
- Enhanced stock perfomance 3200+ Quadrant

For those of you early adopters, please try and let me know of issues, thx!

Having issues with voice and data?

The issue may be device related, meaning your luck of the draw if LOS happens to you. If it doesn't great, if it happens too often, you can always flash stock kernel from Bubby. You will still have root but lose other goodies like OC, boot animation, etc...etc...


*****Credits*****

HUGE Thanks to NeoPhyTe.x360 for the overclocking code/files. and TeamHacksung for CWM code

For ROM developers out there, please feel free to use/include my kernel in your ROM, I would be honored if you did!

Is this kernel based off the Epic 4G Touch kernel or the International GS2 kernel?

It could, can't hurt to try, I am testing it right now.

Kernel is based off Epic 4G Touch, off sammy's sources, the overclocking files are off GS2 but they are compatible as they use the same chip.

Ok kooll....def wont hurt to try....thanks for the reply
