Yes, we will need to wait for a new version of Semaphore Kernel. Until then we need to stick to 20131021 CM10.2 Nightly (this is the latest Nightly in which Semaphore still works without problems) (for those that use CM10.2) or update to a new CM10.2 Nightly and not use Semaphore 3.2.0 and wait for a new version to be released by stratosk.

Okay thanks for Info, so we will wait on 20131021 CM 1.2 nightly...acutally there are some bugs in it ;)

Hey there :)

This is a tiny bug report, possibly... I think.

When using the Semaphore kernel, using an NTFS-formatted SD card is tedious. I have to manually insmod fuse and execute ntfs-3g with the correct parameters before clicking the "mount SD card" option in the storage screen. I now noticed that the original CM kernel just... recognises the SD and it immediately works after booting.

Is this happening on purpose? I mean, I can live with it, but since I am one of those flash addicts, I need to do it at least several times a week. :)

Another question:

What effect when using newer nightlys of CM 10.2 with Sema? Does the phone work???

Thanks in advance!

FUSE FS must be built with flag y , and not as module m.
Then it will work fine. CM kernel does it the same way.

thank you OP.
Works great with latest cm 10.2 nightly. so far no force closes, and i have flashed the 3.3 kernel 5 minutes after your posting.

you do a damn good job and everybody here respects this :highfive:

Phone fc shouldn't be the kernel. Or its more likely rom

Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

There is a new change from CM in bootclasspath. Without it there is FC in phone apk. I merged the change in latest version.

BTW, I want to thank you for your great help and support, my friend! :) Thanks again for everything!

New version 3.3.0
- Linux kernel 3.0.101
- CWM 6.0.4.4
- initramfs changes for CM compatibility
I feel almost bad asking for this, but would you consider compiling the FUSE FS into the kernel, but not as a module? Like ts1506 explained here :)

Would make things a lot more comfortable for me, dunno about others, of course. If you don't want to do that for some reason, I understand. I can always just try to build it myself. :)

Buuut as always, thank you so much for this awesome kernel!

    Custom Voltage may be configured with Voltage control or similar applications.

    For more information check the semaphore kernel website: www.semaphore.gr

    For questions or issues about Semaphore Manager please visit this thread

    For questions or issues about Semaphore Script Manager please visit HM.Carbide thread

    Thanks everybody for your words and your support!
    Your huge support and interest about Semaphore makes me want to try even more for something better.

    Maybe it's not obvious, but I'm working hard on this project. Last weeks, I try more to expand my knowledge and contribute to Linux kernel.
    As I said, this may not have immediate affect in Semaphore versions. But I hope for some results in near future.

    Semaphore is here. I'm here. Semaphore will not stop. I will try to contribute to Linux kernel, through this project. Maybe using other device, but with the same goals.

    Thanks again for everything.
