[KERNEL] I9000B kernel with STEAM support [ALPHA]

[luismanson]

This kernel is a new one with the recovery STEAM insteaod of the normal one, it support a lot of options, take a look

to use it:
apply extract the zip and apply the tar in odin as pda or also extract the tar and apply the zimage as kernel with heimdall

NOTE this is for the 2 froyo roms i know
EDIT:

V2
This is the v2 version, not many changes but from the SpeedMod Kernel by hardcore i used:
* Optimized compiler flags: -mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp -fno-gcse -fprefetch-loop-arrays --param l2-cache-size=512 --param l1-cache-size=64 --param simultaneous-prefetches=6 --param prefetch-latency=400 --param l1-cache-line-size=64

Also there are some memory twaks from that thread, i got 334 of total RAM, please check your SGS before flahsing because by mistake i didnt and now im not sure if it did any change

CHECK camera/vide/radio/tv/games


PD i added ext4 and JFS, but i did not tested them

No go and thank him an zstupy for this great work

Is it a fully working Steam??? I will surely try if it is.

 

[luismanson]

i tryed some options and it worked, testing is welcome

 

[ragin]

Does it replace the CWM? Does it have all the basic CWM functions working? To go back, can we just flash another kernel with CWM or we need to flash a whole ROM?

I guess if you have a 'what's working' list & a 'to-do' list, we can start testing it.

Seriously forget about BLN & other petty stuff. Go ahead and make a working STEAM KERNEL..

PS : This is some real good work.

PS2 : You need to put a BOUNTY on it.

PS3: checkout & rename your [ALPHA] to a version # looks good on the Title.

 

[luismanson]

im not doing a lot of improvements, im working on some ideas on the work other ppl does for the other SGSs versions and thinks i would like, like this steam kernel

it is my V3 base kernel, it has tinyRCU, ondemand scheduler and BFQ sched

there is NO BLN because it caused problems with a2dp audio

 

[ragin]

Will keep a watch on this thread.

[luismanson]

i wont put a bounty on work that anyone can do, but i really do need money and dont mind on people donating money

i will keep working on steam, but im so short of time that i can not test everything, thats why its alpha, at least on the B version

Can we make the conversion to ext 2, 3 or 4 with this Steam Kernel?

And, it's too complicated to have some overclocking room on near future with this kernel? Like something to make easy to overclock with Set CPU and some setcpu.txt files?

Thanks, Luis! You're one of the most active developers to I9000B and we all should be completely thankful to you!

Keep with the good work! Congrats!

Ok. Running on JFS and everything seems to be ok and pretty fast till now. About 1500 on Quadrant and, just to mention, I've made a full conversion without backup. Wiped out everything to be sure if anything goes wrong it's not caused by apps and past configurations. Missed the ext4 conversion to test. Not tested ext2.

Hello Luis, I put your Kernel inside ffabio Froyo light... I change all to JFS, but for now my Titanium Backup doesnt work, i got only FC...

Can be JFS?


Tnx and good work!

 

[ClowReed]

Thread's dead?

Oh well...

I'm still running everything on JFS and it's pretty fast and smooth, without bugs as I could see. But after some research found that it could be interesting to put /cache and/or /system to ext2. Anyone already tried this? It really should make some difference?

Thanks! And c'mon! Wake up, people! This is one of the best kernels we have to our i9000B! Let's give some feedback!

You don't face the time-reset issue at restart?

 

[ClowReed]

Nope! But as I said, I've done a full conversion (everything on jfs) and wiped out everything via secret code and via recovery menu, just to be sure it's all clean.
