It seems that the zipped driver file for Vengeance 1.34 modules has errors.
Would anyone check it?
My Arc is extremely slow for reconnecting WiFi connections.
I think if the above mentioned errors happened while compiling those driver files,
slow WiFi connection might be due to the damaged driver modules.

Somehow I just renamed the file to boot.img and used flashtool on fastboot and it worked.

Device: LT18i
Kernel: Vengeance
Baseband: 85

Wow...! Just change the extension and it works? Pretty awesome!
We should make sure if its the 'harmless' way...

Did it 'Hotboot'??

Its probably your browser fault...how can any browser allow 2 folders of same name at the same place?;)
Redownload the zip!
And try...

Just extract Modules.zip file.
And check the folder "META-INF" and you can find somewhat strange folder structure.

To Madaditya: Did you test the file again or do you have willing to do so? If not, don't post such a rude reply.

Well it seems safe. Running 24hrs nw w/ no errors whatsoever. Except for the part where I forgot to format /system again (stupid me). But everything is peachy. :)
@rachit:
I was wondering if there's any chance that the cwm could be converted to touch version? Is it possible?

Device: LT18i
Kernel: Vengeance
Baseband: 85

Version 1.35 released.
Added VDD sysfs level interface upon request. Let those voltage tweaks begin :p
Better init.d support ( thanks to gu5t3r )
Check changelog for more info on commits.

PS : Modules have been divided into two sets 1. Wlan 2. Extra OTG modules ( CIFS, FUSE etc )
Flash 1st set before 2nd set ( if you do ).
All the best!

You probably shouldn't mention my name as jorobg will suffer heart attack as he will be using now something I contributed to...
Nah, he will probably switch to other kernel just from spite XD

    F.A.Q's :-

    1. Is this working on blah blah?
    > I don't know. Do some research. Keep the disclaimer in mind.

    2. OMG! My device rebooted/crashed/exploded?
    > In case of bootloop, check for conflicting scripts in init.d. If problem persists, get me the logcat or last kmsg.

    3. Battery drains like hell. WTF?
    > Not kernel problem. It's your apps that are waking up device from deep sleep. Check the wakelocks. I don't build kernels to worsen battery life. See here for more info.

    4. Signal is dropping since I flashed the kernel?
    > Again. Not the kernel problem. Check if you have latest ( and proper ) baseband for your device.

    5. WiFi won't work?
    > Flash attached WLAN modules.

    6. Is autoroot included in ramdisk ?
    > No. Autoroot isn't included. Just download flash-able root binary zip from site.

    7. App FC's or something crashes?
    > Try reinstalling app again. Give me logcat if problem persists.

    8. Does this kernel has X or Y mod?
    > Do some research. Check thread, repo, commits etc.

    9. Which governors/IO-schedulers to use?
    > Depends on your usage. See here for more info.

    10.. Version X scored higher than version Y in benchmarks. OP, you screwed your kernel!
    > Deal with it.

    11. I need more info on something?
    > You can find all answers here

    Latest UHD has init.d scripts:

    98tweaks
    Code:
    #!/system/bin/sh
    sleep 10;
    
    #Tweak SD readahead values
    echo 1024 > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb;
    echo 1024 > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/default/read_ahead_kb;
    
    #File system tweaks
    busybox rm -rf /data/tombstones/*;
    
    #Tweak various memory settings
    sysctl -w vm.dirty_ratio=20;
    sysctl -w vm.dirty_background_ratio=5;
    sysctl -w vm.vfs_cache_pressure=300;
    sysctl -w vm.oom_kill_allocating_task=0;
    sysctl -w vm.min_free_kbytes=2048;
    sysctl -w vm.dirty_expire_centisecs=200;
    sysctl -w vm.dirty_writeback_centisecs=500;
    sysctl -w vm.panic_on_oom=0;
    sysctl -w vm.overcommit_memory=1;
    sysctl -w vm.overcommit_ratio=50;
    sysctl -w vm.swappiness=0;
    
    sysctl -w kernel.panic_on_oops=1;
    sysctl -w kernel.panic=10;
    and

    99hd
    Code:
    #!/system/bin/sh
    
    sleep 40;
    hd;
    which is 40+10=50 seconds of unnecessary waiting at boot logo...

    BUT if you modify scripts like this:

    98tweaks
    Code:
    #!/system/bin/sh
    exec > /dev/null 2>&1
    if [ "$1" != "BG" ]; then $0 BG & exit 0; fi
    
    sleep 10;
    
    #Tweak SD readahead values
    echo 1024 > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb;
    echo 1024 > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/default/read_ahead_kb;
    
    #File system tweaks
    busybox rm -rf /data/tombstones/*;
    
    #Tweak various memory settings
    sysctl -w vm.dirty_ratio=20;
    sysctl -w vm.dirty_background_ratio=5;
    sysctl -w vm.vfs_cache_pressure=300;
    sysctl -w vm.oom_kill_allocating_task=0;
    sysctl -w vm.min_free_kbytes=2048;
    sysctl -w vm.dirty_expire_centisecs=200;
    sysctl -w vm.dirty_writeback_centisecs=500;
    sysctl -w vm.panic_on_oom=0;
    sysctl -w vm.overcommit_memory=1;
    sysctl -w vm.overcommit_ratio=50;
    sysctl -w vm.swappiness=0;
    
    sysctl -w kernel.panic_on_oops=1;
    sysctl -w kernel.panic=10;

    99hd
    Code:
    #!/system/bin/sh
    exec > /dev/null 2>&1
    if [ "$1" != "BG" ]; then $0 BG & exit 0; fi
    
    sleep 40;
    /system/xbin/hd;

    You will not have to wait this 50 seconds at boot logo...

    Re: [KERNEL][ICS] Vengeance [ARC/S/PRO][1.32][18/02/13]

    I had planned to discontinue this kernel for MSM7x30 devices. But seeing the immense support from arc community, I may continue the kernel for anzu, ayame and iyokan. Rest have been discontinued already. There have been over 10000+ downloads of 1.32 from these 3 devices alone.
    :)

    edit: i am ready with new version. Just need some testers first to verify if it stands better than 1.32
    If you guys want CM9 supported kernel, send me last and working fxp kernel for your device
