I will include the Key Libs from here on out. I used to but stopped for some reason. Now that people are porting roms more often then I will start including the necessary files. I was starting to worry when people were complaining about the buttons not working lol

had the same problem .installed cwm 29/12 version first the cleaned with cooks kernel cleaner and installed 1/9 twrp version and all buttons worked fine on my i777 .

I will also be implementing a cleaning script when installing my kernel. I figured I will get ahead of it since I will soon have it so users can create their own profiles.

Those of you having button problems can also flash this file; it's a quick and easy fix, and only includes the i777 key lib files.

I love Copy! I really like the lack of ads and how easy it is to use and share files. Thanks again for bring this to my attention. I am very happy with it. I believe I will go ahead and move ALL my files from Dev Host to it just for records sake. Also because I am curious, what is your forte? Other than helping others.

Well, helping others (or offering unwanted opinions :cool:) is it! I can port but I'm no dev, just don't have the time/knowledge.

TWRP did such a weird thing. I tried restoring my backup for CM11, and after it restored system, it formatted my data, and then reboot the phone without restoring my data, so now I lost all my CM11 data for Render's ROM. So weird...

This is some the same behavior that we were experiencing using the omni kernel before some extra governors were ripped out.

Zzmove, in particular.

Assuming that the backup is intact, you can dirty-flash the latest omni, and use the stock kernel/recovery to restore the backup.

It happened to me once recently on render's kernel, but I considered it a fluke, since I had already performed a successful backup on render's kernel.
At this point I think it happens less reliably on render's kernel than on the old problematic omni kernel, so it may be tougher to replicate, but I think that a last_kmsg.log helps most.

For history on the issue, there's this thread, courtesy of @bleggy, and this final comment from the jira report; OMNI-250:
Andrew Dodd added a comment - 03/Jan/14 2:37 PM
Some of the new CPU governors that were added to the kernel behaved very badly when not selected as default, triggering hung task timeouts which triggered reboots. All of the new governors were ripped out and everything is happy again.
Adaptive is most definitely not coming back, and the other governors will only be allowed back one at a time if their merits can be proven.

Thanks @cyril279! I have been seeing reports about zzmove not working correctly for KK. I will be taking it out for now. Also can you tell me (if you remember) what your kernel settings were when this happened to the both of you?

No special settings, I use the kernel as-is, out-of-the-box. It doesn't seem to take much (aside from time) to get the device to reboot (see below).

flashed render recovery
rebooted to recovery
initialized backup of boot, system, & data
>>unexpected reboot during /data backup<<

It was suggested in Bleggy's thread that it's more a function of time than anything else, so for the second log, I didn't do anything at all except boot to recovery, and wait.

reboot to recovery
set screen timeout to 300 seconds
wait
>>unexpected reboot<<

I tried zzzmove for a few days and had at least 2 random reboots a day and a few lock ups so I changed back yesterday. A few pages back it was suggested, don't remember by who, they had used zzzmove successfully so I wanted to try it. I'm on on demand right now. Any suggestions for balanced battery life and performance?

I don't have a clue what I doing different. I have been running the newest Rom build and Kernel a solid week now with NO problems using Zzmoves and SIO as the I/O scheduler 1400000khz .CPU voltages are all O V by 50mv. Boost on.
In did a clean install. I did not restore from CWM. I down loaded apps from the store. Google downloaded its back up. I have not flashed any thing for 7days . just been working on getting the most out of this ROM. Battery and cleaning up apps. I'm constantly getting AnTu scores of above 12700 And can push into the 13000.
I had some overheating and freezes first day but I think I was the cause over Tweek. A wipe and reboot cured. I would be pleased to run any test or try to answer any questions The way this ROM is performing I don't no if I want to flash Again.

Hi Render, I 've check out your kernel but stuck at setting up the SaberMod Toolchain
So, would you plz upload your configured Toolchain? I've tried to download the toolchain at https://github.com/SaberMod/android_prebuilts_gcc_linux-x86_arm_sabermod-arm-linux-androideabi-4.8 but still not getting luck...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

I would use the 4.7 toolchain. I am curious though if you can build with out errors with the 4.8 one. What I do is this:

cd one directory before your kernel source. This way you don't clutter your source directory. The clone the toolchain:

git clone https://github.com/SaberMod/android_prebuilts_gcc_linux-x86_arm_sabermod-arm-linux-androideabi-4.7

Then I rename the new folder to something like:

sabermod-arm-eabi-4.7

Definitely use the dashes so you can use tab to complete the name easier. People that know linux know what I mean. Once done you need to point to in ni the Makefile. If you look at my commits you will see the required changes. You can see everything that ends in i777 is something I added/changed to make it work for me or/and the i777. If you use the 4.8 toolchain please let me know how it goes! :)

I will not be able to use my phone for a few months due to college (I need to focus. Last semester of community college), so I bid you all farewell. I might be back for a bit when the semester ends until I transfer to a new phone. Thank you RenderBroken for such an awesome ROM and Kernel. Even though the battery life on KitKat has been below average for me, this ROM was notable for giving the better battery life of the others here, and this ROM kept me from going back to stock ROM for the battery life. KitKat has grown on me, so I didn't feel like leaving it. I will continue to be active here on the i777 forums after the few months of away time.

I can't wait to see how far this ROM progresses in the coming months. Good luck man!

There has been a rather important update to superSU that addresses the problem with root on kit kat. Need to watch for the update after flashing the new kernel and rerun superSU.

    Working on new build. Just hang tight. I am trying to get my kernel work onto my new VM. Its a pain in the ass lol. I am getting really weird build errors using all the same stuff so Im not sure what the problem is there but I just wanted to spread the word. Installing new HDD into my old build machine so I can hopefully and finally download the Liquid Smooth source this weekend. My wife and son will be at my inlaws for while so its time to get it done. lol. Honestly I am trying to get away from the Rom building and focus on my kernel work but I also dont want to leave anyone hanging. I am working on some partnerships so we can get active builds going again and it not all depend on the amount of free time I have. So hang tight. You may see some cool minor changes. Hopefully we can keep the ol' s2 a bit more life. If you are tired of it and want to get the best phone for the money then get a Moto G! (No I don't get paid by Motorola to endorse lol. I wish though . . .) I am working on a new kernel for the Moto G that no one has yet seen for the phone. Adding new features from other great devs. I was tired of seeing 3 different kernels but all use Faux's Intelliplug. Its not bad but I wanted more control. I am looking at a possible hotplug change here though too. We will have to see. I won't believe it til I see it. Thanks guys for being cordial and not staying on my ass about new builds. Yall have been great. Because of the space and respect I will continue to support the i777/S959G for as long as I can or as long as its relevant.

    Kind Regards,
    Zachariah

    New kernel builds uploaded. Please check the source for changes. Also please note that the default STweaks profile is subject to change from build to build so make sure STweaks is setup the way you want each time you flash. I cant test every single build but the source is kept pretty stable. Also I have now started building for SlimKat. This is for those who port SlimKat currently. Lastly I encourage people to port roms from the i9100 thread. I build my kernels and package them so they should work without any other steps. You should be able to just flash the i9100 rom then my kernel. Thats it! I will update the OP when I am done cooking/eating. Enjoy the builds and as always let us know how it goes.

    Some good news, I was able to find the problem with my kernel builds. I was using strict -O3 flags and something was not agreeing with that so I changed to -O2 instead. The performance hit is not noticeable. Also I had setup a build script so building kernels take A LOT less time now. What this means is i will go ahead and build CWM/TWRP for both CM11 and OMNI. This was the end user can choose what they like best. I also added a Fade effect for BLN. Check it out in STweaks. Setup new boostpulse driver. Short story is that its now working for ALL governors and is more efficient than before. And Much more.

    F - F - F - Failed Build Breaker!!!!!

    I have finally been able to get a working kernel build. This new build has so many new features it will blow your pants off (Literally). If you havent been keeping up with the new ZZmoove governor then you are missing out on some pretty exciting developments. The new governor has micro profiles that can now be set on the fly with STweaks. Here is what you are instore for:

    * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    * - (1)'def' -> Default -> will set governor defaults -
    * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    * - (2)'ybat -> Yank Battery -> a very good battery/performance balanced setting -
    * - DEV-NOTE: highly recommended! -
    * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    * - (3)'ybatext'-> Yank Battery Extreme -> like yank battery but focus on battery saving -
    * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    * - (4)'zzbat' -> ZaneZam Battery -> a more 'harsh' setting strictly focused on battery saving -
    * - DEV-NOTE: might give some lags! -
    * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    * - (5)'zzbatp' -> ZaneZam Battery Plus -> NEW! reworked 'faster' battery setting -
    * - DEV-NOTE: recommended too!:) -
    * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    * - (7)'zzopt' -> ZaneZam Optimized -> balanced setting with no focus in any direction -
    * - DEV-NOTE: relict from back in the days, even though some people still like it! -
    * ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
