Fellow Flash Fanatics : I have had this idea brewing for a little while and decided to finally turn it into a reality to bundle with my (then) impending v2.0 release of RoyalGinger. This kernel is compiled originally from Zinx's latest CM7 stock kernel source with some additional inspiration and code from dumbfuq's smartass governor config. I then hammered out about a dozen initial test builds with various configurations and tweaks in order to come up with my initial v1.0.

Hot off the compiler/doughnut maker is v1.1b , which incorporated several minor and a couple of not-as-minor evolutions. This is still only the second build of this project with many more releases and updates to follow!

Please enjoy

Notes & Thoughts:

I'm going for a relatively simple and straight forward approach with this kernel that provides a little more emphasis & focus on performance in the mid/mid-upper range freq's. In other words, I am not concerned at this point with helping you 'race' your buddies in benchmarking scores and killing your battery in 25 mins flat.

I am spending my energy concentrating on the most snap/responsiveness and bang for the buck under normal 'daily driving' conditions. Battery performance is definitely a serious priority as well. But not at the cost of (real world) performance or stability.

I personally use the default 1.1GHz MAX / 245Hz MIN setting. I recommend sticking with the smartass gov for now. That's one reason v1.1 is still in beta .. the new min/max gov needs a little massaging and sweet talkin', though is still plenty usable. I'm still dialing several things in and I also plan to start updating drivers in the next releases so it's only up from here ladies n gents.

That's obviously a Gingerbread Sense ROM, so I wonder why it didn't work.

I was thinking about trying this kernel on Virtuous Fusion.

sorry guys. edited OP. I have a test build of an updated linux version that should work with GB Sense. I had already pretyped some of the OP when I thought I'd have it merged in with my main trunk in time for the forum release. but that didn't happen and I forgot to take that part down from compatible ROMs.

I hope to have a GB Sense compatible version up soon, but this is a serious task. Nothing like a good challenge.

it's currently 2.6.32.28

Will this kernel fix the screen wake issue or should i stick with dumfuq's?

yes , it should. both of our kernels are originally sourced from zinxs kernel. but last I checked, his was based from a slightly older version so I've got a couple newer patches and I've done a few other things that I believe will help with both battery life and responsiveness.

let me also say dumbfuqs kernels are awesome.

all I would say is give it a try and see what works best for you and your setup.

but in regards to the freezing/upsidedown issue, my tester who's phone suffers the same condition on occasion has been unable to get his to lock up since flashing my kernel.

in that vein, I'll also add that one of the other reasons that I made this kernel was because I started suffering from some uber frustrating keyboard freezes where at least a couple / few times a day one of the keys would get frozen where no matter what you did you couldn't press that particular key for about 3-5 seconds or more....I haven't experienced a single instance of this on this kernel.

also, one of my other testers was never able to overclock past 1.7 before without his phone freezing. he tested this version 1.1 a couple of days ago and was able to max out all the way to 1.8GHz and bench for a while without a single freeze.

lastly, when I got up this morning ..this kernel had made me Maine wild blueberry pancakes with hot Vermont maple syrup and eggs over medium. it had even ironed my clothes for the day.
