[Kernel]Unsecured, OverClocked, SmartAssV2, and Voltage Control[New Links 01.27.12]

---

Okay, I looked at what ziggy and cron247 did over on XDA and tried to make it better.

This kernel is unsecured, meaning adb connects with root.
It OverClock's up to 1.836MHz.
It has the SmartAss V2 governor.
It uses my ramdisk, not the one you have. I cannot forsee this being an issue. If it becomes one, let me know.

Updates:

Version 1.1.3 changes the version of lagfree, the old one was having issues. Also removes forcing the second CPU to be online which was causing choppiness.

Version 1.1.2 adds increased read ahead, writeback tweaks, decreased dirty ratio settings, simple I/O scheduler, and the lagfree governor.

Version 1.0.5 adds mpdecision fix by Mr X, thank you whoever you are, if you removed mpdecision, put it back. Also added voltage control for you UV lovers.

The only control program I have tested to work is AnTuTu CPU Master (Free), I have had issues with SetCPU and a few others. This one does speed, governor, and voltage all very well.

Get it here: AnTuTu CPU Master (Free)

The following problems seem to be fixed at this point: governor and speed settings not sticking, smartass staying at top speed, random reboots or bootloops overnight.

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS, THIS IS A SINGLE FILE



To install this kernel:

1. Copy the file to the root of your SDcard.
2. Reboot into recovery (CWR or AmonRa).
3. Flash the file from the SDcard.
4. At the end of the flash the phone will reboot to fastboot.
5. Once fastboot loads, tap PWR to get to HBOOT.
6. HBOOT will find the update and ask you to install.
7. Tap Vol Up to begin the install.
8. When it finishes it will say tap PWR to reboot. Do it.
9. After the phone boots remove the PH98IMG.zip file from your SDcard.
10. Use AnTuTu CPU Master (Free) to set min/max/gov/voltage.
11. Enjoy!

Thanks to ziggy and con247 for getting us started and having stuff out there for me to get ideas from.

My favorite Rezound kernel so far. Haven't had one crash, even at max OC. Thanks so much guys at BAMF!

This kernel has been good to me too.

I just wish I could get a handle on thie weird issue. Any of these other than stock kernels seem to have the minimum cpu speed jump up to the max cpu speed, then back down constantly, and I cant figure out the deal.

I can check on mine periodically and my min says 192, than a couple seconds later it says its the same as my max. Ugh.

I noticed that as well

I also had a problem yesterday morning where my phone locked up when my alarm clock went off - forcing me to pull the battery to turn the sound off - not sure if that's kernel or ROM related (running CleanROM 1.5)

It's kernel related; I'm running rezrom and had the same exact issue with my alarm running this kernel.

Do you think ziggys is more stable?.. or do I just need to find the right overclock/underclock settings?

I seem to recall seeing them have that problem on ziggy's - but I never had that problem on earlier versions of dsb's - so maybe it's just something that is fixable for the next release

*wanders off to test it again*

This is no doubt me doing things wrong that led to this, but I downloaded the kernel through the phone browser, then flashed it from the download directory on the internal SD. When I flashed Incredikernel from there it copied the PH98 to the sdcard, but no dice on this kernel until I copied it to the sdcard then flashed it.

I probably should have copied it to the sd card myself first anyway, but I figured I would let you know!

Well this morning - my alarm clock went off - I was able to snooze it - and then a few minutes later the phone went in to boot loops - had been running stable all weekend - once I pulled the battery the phone booted back up just fine.

we'll see if it repeats this behavior tomorrow morning or not...

Call recording support in the kernel?

Nope, only Ziggy's kernel currently supports this.
