This is my own personally compiled kernel based on the latest kernel from Cyanogen's Github repository with Kmobs' undervolt modifications, CodeAurora's AVS code, pershoot and rotohammer's audio gain mod and several compiler optimizations based on initial idea from psyq.
Only major releases will be advertised here.
All changes since 05/05 can be found at my Euroskank host:
http://intersectraven.euroskank.com/kernels/
*Thanks to RyanMacG for the free hosting!
Old uploads with minor changes can be found at my MediaFire folder or my Bitpad folder:
http://www.bitpad.co.uk/intersectraven
http://www.mediafire.com/intersectRaven
Major features:
- based on latest Cyanogen Mod kernel source from his GitHub repository
- numerous compiler optimizations with a custom compiler by redstar3894
- all CPU power governors for user dependent tweaking of power saving method
- Hybrid AVS (Adaptive Voltage Scaling combined with Static Voltage Scaling) support for maximum possible power savings dependent on CPU requirements and a customizable version (CAVS) for people who like to tweak how far their N1s can go
- universal update.zip template made by Koush
Instructions:
1.) Reboot to recovery and flash the update.zip directly.
OR
Instructions for zImage and bcm4329.ko driver extracted from the update.zip(from command line):
1.) adb remount
2.) adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules
3.) adb reboot bootloader
4.) fastboot flash zimage zImage
5.) fastboot reboot
OR
Use ADB GUI by minooch found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=666964
*please note the instructions...push the wifi driver BEFORE rebooting for flashing zImage...if your wifi is turned on when you reboot before you pushed the wifi driver for the kernel, there is a chance that you will go into a bootloop due to the incompatible wifi driver!

[Kernel] [.35.10, .37] intersectRaven's Kernel (HAVS-AXI-FM-720p-Zen)1/9/2011 10:13
Reserved for intersectRaven - Added 2post to allow OP to have more place for futur update
Finally a thread!
been using your kernels for some time now, good work!
---------------------------------------------------------------
Updates: I thought I'll use this space to provide some info since its right next to the OP
BFS:
BFS is the Brain **** Scheduler. It was designed to be forward looking only,
make the most of lower spec machines, and not scale to massive hardware. ie
it is a desktop orientated scheduler, with extremely low latencies for
excellent interactivity by design rather than "calculated", with rigid
fairness, nice priority distribution and extreme scalability within normal
load levels.
http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/bfs/bfs-faq.txt
CFS
Completely Fair Scheduler is the name of a task scheduler which was merged into the 2.6.23 release of the Linux kernel. It handles CPU resource allocation for executing processes, and aims to maximize overall CPU utilization while maximizing interactive performance.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completely_Fair_Scheduler
Comparison of BFS vs CFS: http://www.cs.unm.edu/~eschulte/data/bfs-v-cfs_groves-knockel-schulte.pdf
Conclusion
The results indicate that CFS outperformed BFS with minimizing turnaround time but that BFS
outperformed CFS for minimizing latency. This indicates that BFS is better for interactive tasks
that block on I/O or user input and that CFS is better for batch processing that is CPU bound.

I just compiled one with higher settings based on rotohammer's research. I think I'll stick with the default ones in my previous version though so its okay to skip this latest one.
For those who wanted to try out the modified values:
http://www.mediafire.com/?dqynw1inh3y <= 2.6.32
http://www.mediafire.com/?mmjwxzjlmmw <= 2.6.33
I'm working on a mod that will allow us to change the min_vol and max_vol from a file. Kernel SOP dictates this not advised, but I don't have time to learn how to implement a procfs hook.
I also used the voltages specified by kmobs so there should be no difference with the voltages. .32 is from the android kernel source while .33 is from cyanogen's. .32 is the stable kernel while .33 is still in its experimental stage.
Thanks a lot I've been looking for something like this!
intersectRaven, any chance to release Overclock kernel ?
1267Mhz on the nexus one will be great. hahahaha

i'm currently using MoDaCo Alpha 19, which reports using a 2.6.33.1 kernel. so i would use the 2.6.33 version, correct? just to confirm, are your volume values the same as used by rotohammer? also, where is the zImage stored on my device, that is if it's actually saved at all (yes, i am a newbie, lol). thanks!

THIS IS ONLY FOR TELUS FASCINATE ( SGH-T959D )
I have tried many time to compile without success, so after having a small talk with TK-Glitch, he told me that he already had compiled his kernel for us ^^. So i decided to post here the kernel and his future update.
All credits goes to Tk-Glitch and his team. If you like this kernel, thanks him or give him some money. The only thing i did was to make this thread xD
Do you want to discuss on this kernel, get the fresh news on development, or become a kernel tester ?

These kernels are provided as-is without warranty. I'm not responsible for any problem you can encounter with your phone or if your cat suddenly dies.
Although, don't expect support even if I will eventually help since I love cats.
Note : These kernels are only compatible with CM7 and MIUI roms !
Overview :
- Up to 1.7GHz CPU OC with added bus/GPU OC (Thanks to morfic for the great base of work)
- Undervolting using Pimp my CPU or Voltage Control
- Voodoo Sound - & Voodoo Color, using VC versions (Thanks Supercurio & renaudallard)
- FPS uncap (Screen running 68Hz instead of 60Hz, from 56 to 66 FPS max) from JPX source
- Various tweaks for more smoothness and reliability
- LED notifications
CHANGELOGS IN #2 POSTThe frequency/voltage & informative UV settings table is as follow for latest kernel :
Note that these UV settings will be unstable on many devices. It's only informative.
1700 MHz - [email protected] 243 MHz - 1.500v / -> Most phones will fail here. -25 to -50mV may help to stabilize. Much stabler as unique frequency for benchmarks.
1600 MHz - [email protected] 229 MHz - 1.500V / -> That's high and many devices will fail on this frequency. Find working UV for you if any.
1500 MHz - [email protected] 250 MHz - 1.500V / -25mV
1440 MHz - [email protected] 240 MHz - 1.475V / -50mV
1400 MHz - [email protected] 233 MHz - 1.450V / -50mV
1300 MHz - [email protected] 217 MHz - 1.400V / -50mV
1200 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.350V / -50mV
1000 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.250V / -50mV - If you have stability issues, try to let this one by default.
800 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.200V / -75mV
400 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 1.050V / -100mV
200 MHz - [email protected] 200 MHz - 0.950V / -150mV
100 MHz - [email protected] 100 MHz - 0.950V / -200mV - (can be very different between two devices)
GPU frequency is linked to bus speed
More volts is not always equal to more stability. Try to add more UV (less volts) if the frequency you're trying to achieve is unstable.
Considering all phones will respond differently to OC/UV, to tweak the values to suit your device will be required.
By default, no overclock/undervolt is applied. You'll need to use one of the tools below to adjust the frequencies and voltages.
Note : Never ever use SetCPU with this kernel. You could encounter many stability problems like random reboots or bootloops.

Glitch kernel
Telus Fascinate version :
- 14/07/2011 - V11 (Low leakage)
- 14/07/2011 - V11 (Medium leakage)
- 14/07/2011 - V11 (High leakage)
OLDER RELEASESFTP ROOT (all kernels are here)
FAQ :
What are the differences between High, Medium and Low leakage ?
All produced chips aren't equal, and some will be "better shaped" than others, using power more efficiently and heating less. This new concept I added in V11 tends to cover most chips, depending on their quality.
The idea is to modify some internal voltage values of the SoC to help a good CPU in a poor environment (GPU/controller/memory) to shine. Of course it won't do miracles if your CPU is poor to begin with, but it's a very rare case.
Low leakage chips are the best on the paper, needing less volts and heating less than others.
High leakage represents the majority of produced chips in our SGS.
I found with beta testers that even if a chip looks poor at OC/UV at first, it'll generally have much potential still. I was able to get a 1.2GHz no UV max stable GS to 1.5GHz -50mV rock solid, and even able to push 1.7GHz for benchmarking and other tests using this new concept.
Of course this is all new and it'll take some time and heavy testing to find best settings for most devices, but I think it's a very interesting thing, and I hope I'll be able to find a way to change modes on-the-fly, making this function a must in the future especially in OC/UV kernels.
How do I enable logcat in V11+ ?
In V11, the logger is now built as a module to lower overhead and to help battery life.
To enable it, just open a terminal emulator and type "logcat-on", then reboot.
To disable it, type "logcat-off" instead. (without quotes !)
I get reboots when I try to load Voodoo Sound module !
This function, available in Voodoo Control Plus app, is ONLY for kernels NOT SUPPORTING Voodoo Sound (like stock CM7 kernel for example). You'll only generate conflicts trying to load this module. Voodoo Sound is built-in on Glitch kernel and nothing more has to be loaded for it to work.

Changelogs :
Changelogs :
V5
19/04/2011 - V5A - Initial release
21/04/2011 - V5B :
- GPU overclock on 1.3 GHz added (217MHz / +8.5% from default)
- New PMEM settings for more available RAM compared to V5A (now 328MB)
- Stability fixes for all frequencies, needing globally less volts. Results may vary depending on the device
- Switched to Conservative governor by default (still switchable by app). It can feel less responsive coming from idle but more battery saving, and plays better with high frequencies.
- New voltage table. Default settings should be stabler for most devices.
- Switched to 4.4.3 toolchain for added stability on some sensitive devices
Captivate and Vibrant support will come later. It will need more time than expected.
21/04/2011 - V5C : Small update to fix a bootloop issue on some devices.
V6
WIP
22/04/2011 - V6pre - preview/work in progress of upcoming V6A update *test* :
- Reverted PMEM settings to new CM7 default (317MB - same as V5A)
- Reverted some stability fixes that weren't that stable on some devices, or even prevented some to boot
- New voltage table for a more linear increase, improving stability at default settings
- Switched to Deadline scheduler by default as it appears more stable
- Back to 2010.09 toolchain for speed and efficiency
- Synchronized with last update from SGS CM7 team
Better to use CM7 04212011 update with this kernel and newer.
22/04/2011 - V6pre - update 1 :
- Battery polling bumped to 15 sec (was 1 before), it should help battery to an extent (thanks to Zach for the idea)
- Some internal voltage tweaking to hopefully be more UV friendly
- Bumped USER_HZ for more smoothness
- Another -rare- bootloop fix
22/04/2011 - V6pre - update 2 :
- Added some tweaks from V5A for testing
- Resolved a bug generating fake voltage reading
- Resolved a bug on 400MHz step generating instabilities
- Slight changes to the voltage table
- Fixed a typo
- Trying some toolchain switch - again-
23/04/2011 - V6pre - update 3 :
- Corrected Led Notifications - Now it should work properly again !
- Various bugfixes and typo corrections
- Toolchain change once again
- Added new Interactive governor with aggressive settings for even more speed. You need to change it by app (pimp my cpu/cyanogen settings), it's still on conservative by default.
(thanks Zach for your suggestion)
25/04/2011 - V6pre - update 4
- Cleanups on Led notifications to resolve a bug (buttons stopped working randomly for some users)
- More typo corrections
- Voodoo Sound V8
- Various bugfixes on CPU load and schedulers
- CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE disabled for speed
- Lower latency on GPU states switch for stabler performances
- Added a stability fix for voltage change latency when frequency is changing. It should give more stability with high undervolt or big voltage differences between two steps - Please test and report ! (Thanks Zach for pointing that to me)
- Two versions for testing purposes : V6pre-u4 is compiled using GCC 4.5.1 toolchain, and V6pre-u4(alt) is compiled using GCC 4.4.3 one. If you get instabilities on the first one, try the other and vice versa. Please report your findings on that because it was the first stability differences source between my kernel revisions. For information, V6pre-u2 was compiled with 4.4.3, and u3 with 4.5.1.
27/04/2011 - V6pre - update 5 >> 6
- Name changed from "TkGlitch" to "Glitch"
- Cleanups on buttons (Kangsterizer)
- Lower latency on GPU states switch for stabler performances in 3D and/or at high GPU frequency - corrected, thanks to Kangsterizer
- Added a stability fix when frequency changes for cpufreq governors
- Tweaked Interactive and Conservative governors for testing
- New Frequency table : 1.5GHz is now the max selectable frequency, and 800MHz and 400MHz steps are now replaced by a unique 600MHz one.
- Changed initramfs source to remove the annoying "E:no misc partition" error in the recovery
- Now bumped to update 6 to fix an issue with the conservative governor.
27/04/2011 - V6pre - update 7
- New Frequency table : 1.44GHz removed, 800 and 400MHz steps are back.
- Battery polling bumped from 15 to 30 seconds
- GPU power latency bumped from 10 to 60 ms
28/04/2011 - V6A - To use with 04282011 or newer CM7 build only
- New sensors drivers added
- Normalized 1.5GHz bus speed (GPU will now run @ 250MHz versus 247MHz before. It can affect your stability !)
- Int voltage lowered for 1.5GHz step because it did have a bad effect on lower frequencies stability
- GPU power latency back to default - but fixed (100ms)
29/04/2011 - V6B - To use with 04282011 or newer CM7 build only
- New initramfs source to fix compass and update CWM recovery
- 1.5GHz replaced by 1.48GHz for stability
- New voltage table as requested by many users (+25mv on 1200 to 1400MHz steps)
- New interactive governor for better scaling and battery life
- New tweaked smartass governor for testing (pretty bad on CPU benchmarks for some reason, please test how it feels in real world use)
- New ondemand governor from Zacharias.maladroit sources for testing
02/05/2011 - V6C - To use with 05012011 or newer CM7 build only
- Small update to merge with 2.3.4 source, no new feature.
02/05/2011 - V6C² - To use with 05012011 or newer CM7 build only
- Update to repair Voodoo Sound conflicts from 2.3.4 merge.
- Back to 1.44GHz max to prepare 1.5GHz return
V7
02/05/2011 - V7A - To use with 05012011 or newer CM7 build and MIUI RC8+ only
- Resurrect Voodoo Color killed by 2.3.4 merge.
- New step for 1.5GHz on top of 1.44GHz (now 9 steps total versus 8 before)
- Forcing 400MHz max when sleeping for added battery life (default = 800). Couldn't detect any side effect.
- New tweaked Smartass governor now default (800MHz min when screen on). Please report your experience
- It seems the smartass governor is not working by default, it will revert to performance >< Please force it to get it to work -> Ok found the problem, I'll update in a min
- Now updated to V7A-2 to fix the governor bug
03/05/2011 - V7B - To use with 05012011 or newer CM7 build and MIUI RC8+ only
- Resurrect Voodoo Color killed by 2.3.4 merge - Again - fully working now
- Fixed sleep of death issue when unplugged
- Switched to LZO compression for better overall speed and reduced boot time
- Tweaked smartass governor more for - hopefully - better battery life and a bit more responsivity
- New voltage and frequency table rewrite as a bonus with now 11 frequencies total
- Stability fixes on 1.5GHz step -> please test and report
- Reverted FPS uncap - at least for now - for two main reasons : more stability on high GPU freqs (1.4GHz and more), and to prevent FPS limit at max/2 (33 when unlocked to 66), limiting overall performances in heavy scenes. I think there's a lack of buffering somewhere.. It will give higher scores on some benchmarks, and lower on others. A better battery life can indeed be expected too.
- Upstream sync
05/05/2011 - V7C - To use with 05032011 or newer CM7 build and MIUI RC8+ only
- Upstream sync (better battery life, reboot recovery, etc.)
- A general stability fix missing from V7 branch added back
- Tiny tweaks on the voltage table
- Big bugfix on the V7 branch (redone from scratch, cleaner)
- Switched to 2011.03 toolchain
- Added some optimization flags, "-mfloat-abi=hard" being one of them (up to 40% performance gains in specific cases)
- Small improvements here and thereV8
07/05/2011 - V8A - To use with 05062011 or newer CM7 build (useable on MIUI RC8 but you'll lose camera - MIUI needs an update)
- Upstream sync (camera fixes etc.)
- More stability fixes
- Cleanups on OC code (found that 1.2 and 1.3GHz were very unstable compared to earlier releases)
- More work on Vibrant/Captivate. The kernels are now available to download but are untested - for now. Feel free to try and report any problem or if all runs well. If I have enough positive reviews, these kernels will be released in their respective device sections.
11/05/2011 - V8B
Upstream sync only :
- USB switch suspend
- TV out stuff
- Fascinate specifics
- Revert "Got back to previous samsung_modemctl" for 05112011 CM7 buildV9
16/05/2011 - V9A
- Merged with the now dead V8C update because of new added features
- Upstream sync : Calculate battery percentage as percent of max capacity reported when battery full, new wifi driver, etc.
- New PMEM settings for more available RAM (now 331MB)
- 1.54GHz step added with some gentle settings for now.
- New step by step frequency switch when scaling down (part of the Galaxy S II port from Bilboa1) - more stability on highest frequencies
- Corrections and further tweaking on smartass governor + some fixes from Netarchy (Nexus S). 400MHz lock when screen is on removed (not needed anymore -> more power saving)
- Higher cache for faster SDcard read speed
- New sleep settings : Effective lock to 400MHz max when screen is off -> fix long wake up/hiccups when playing music or similar use. Be careful with your UV settings on 200 and 400MHz steps to avoid sleep of death problems ! These were not used on previous versions of my kernel (locked to 100 MHz when screen off and locked to 400MHz when screen on with a buggy gap in smartass governor forcing generally 600+ MHz)
- 600 MHz step removed (it was generating instabilities on some phones when jumping to 800 or down to 400 when using UV)
- Some voltage tweaks for added stability on some devices (as always)
- Cleanups on unused/no more needed stuff
- Little surprise, thanks to Morfic
- Updated to V9A² to fix SOD and some performance issues
21/05/2011 - V9B
- Upstream sync (CWM recovery 3.1.0.1, better screen colors (kills voodoo color for now and looks awful on my 0516 build, but should be good on latest), GPIO fixes, samsung modemctl...) + small changes on my side for official CyanogenMod repository compatibility
- Voodoo Sound updated to V9 / cleaned voodoo color stuff until it works again
- New cleaner bootlogo based on the one in first post, preferred by most users
- Some additional compilation flags from Netarchy and Zacharias.maladroit (better overall performances + NEON)
- Screen refresh frequency bumped to 72Hz (68Hz effective). It'll uncap FPS to 66 again but seems stabler than before on framerate (the divide/2 behavior happens less)
- Added screenstate scaling script from well.heeled.man as a test (with my kernel's smartass default settings). It should give better sleep power consumption as well as better power efficiency on screen off tasks like music playing etc. by switching to conservative governor.
If you want more information, discuss on this or contribute to enhance it, please come here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087646
- Adding some stuff from Zacharias.madadroit :
- Higher battery charging temperature
- Scheduler tweaks
Alternative version now available (V9B-VC) using old AMOLED panel color/gamma settings and with Voodoo Color V2 added back.
24/05/2011 - V9C TO USE WITH CM7 Nightly build #12 OR HIGHER ONLY
(Updated to fix "no service" issue, but still sucks.. unstable on #12 build, very stable on others but no service)
- Upstream sync (PMEM disabled (gives 339MB RAM now), new RIL, headset fixes...)
- Divider changes for MUCH better stability on 1.2GHz at the cost of a slight decrease on performances
- New branch with Voodoo Color display driver and "old" color settings named "VC"
- Fix for Vibrant no service problem - hopefully
- Small changes on smartass governor for better scalability (reverts some old settings not needed anymore with the screenstate script)
- Glitch logo now in update script too for nanu_x2 to be amazed when installing my kernel
24/05/2011 - V9D TO USE WITH CM7 Nightly build #11 OR LOWER (for i9000, or cappy/vibrant equivalent) AND MIUI ONLY
First "D" revision.. Sound like duty. It's basically a fix of a fix done to make the V9C features available for "stable builds" (considering the i9000 #12 isn't)
- Obviously all the V9C changelog
- Using old RIL to be compatible with builds before #12 for I9000 (--> WON'T WORK with #12 for i9000 or equivalent !)
- Replaced 1.54GHz step by 1.6GHz (1.54GHz step was somewhat useless, too close to 1.5Ghz, and slower overall because of the lower bus speed)
- I can't build Vibrant ATM, the CM7 build system is broken on this device or I'm doing something wrong but I wasn't able to fix it. Any help is appreciated. I'm sorry for Vibrant users I'm screwed.
V10
27/05/2011 - V10A Do not use with CM7 builds older than 23/05 (as well as the 28/05 or newer build) or MIUI -> you'll get no service !
- Now fully compatible with latest CM7 Nightly builds
- Back to 2010.09 toolchain -> slower & less stable but needed to make a working kernel for latest builds
- Upstream sync (bigger radio partition, headset stuff..)
- Int voltage changes to get some stability back on all overclocked frequencies
- A bit faster 1.5 and 1.6GHz steps - Could make these steps unstable for some, please try and report
- Smartass governor tweaked for faster scaling up, and slower scaling down -> better stability and speed
- OC code bugs and inconsistencies introduced in V7B now fixed (it was here to prevent sleep of death issue, now fixed)
- Some fixes and enhancement for compatibility with Xan's Voltage Control app
- Various tweaks for MOAR SPEED
- Black magic
Known issues :
- The reboot recovery command seems broken for some reason on recent builds. Probably rom related.
- Some users still get freeze issue on boot. If you have this issue, please use the "no-optimization" kernel for you device from this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14180722&postcount=2077

How to install CM7 on SGH-T959D with alternative for broken SGH-T959D.
This is updated and easier way to install it ^^
This is only for Telus Fascinate not Verizon Fascniate!!
It is really important that your are on froyo rom before you flash as CM7 need froyo bootloader.
Flash it at your own risk!!! I'm not responsible for anythings that you just did!! Knowledge on how to recover your phone is recommended.
Things that you need
1. CWM 3.0.0.5 enabled kernel. It will do a lagfix as it's voodoo kernel. Just let it finish.
2. Newest Version of CM7 Rom
4. galaxy-efsbackup.zip
5. [CM7]Tk-Glitch kernel for SGH-T959D --> Telus fascinate 3g+
Here is How! (How to flash it, when you are using stock Froyo Rom)
1. Get those files download
2. Copy cm7 package, GalaxyS EFS backup and Glitch kernel to your phone. Should be named cm_galaxysmtd_full-XX.zip where XX is the version number, galaxys-efsbackup.zip and CM7TelusFascinate-Glitch-V10C-VC.zip.
3. Get into download mode and flash CWM kernel using odin (do not check mark on the repartition and phone efs clear!) It will be named voodoo.advanced.v666.2-20110111-21.53.tar.
4. Unplug your USB and get into recovery mode. Hardware way.
5. Choose "mounts & storage" and format system, data, and cache
6. Flash GalxyS-EfsBackup.zip
7. Flash Glitch kernel then reboot in recovery again with hardware way. If you use reboot recovery command, just keep on going with the alternative way.
7. Flash cm_galaxysmtd_full-XX.zip
8. Reboot your device and make sure you are in service and 3g working fine. If you dont get any of that you might have to go back to stock Froyo rom and do this steps again.
9. If you have service and 3g data working, go to recovery mode again!!
10. Install [CM7]Tk-Glitch kernel from recovery. CM7 package install default kernel and we want Glitch kernel
11. Restore the efs backup.
12. Reboot your device and you will be running CM7 Rom and amazing Tk-Glitch kernel ^^.
Alternative way to flash. Can't access recovery mode by booting with button.
1. Download the same file as main way to install.
2. Copy cm7 package to your phone. Should be named cm_galaxysmtd_full-XX.zip where XX is the version number. Also copy Glitch kernel.
3. Get into download mode (Use download Script included here if you can't do it hardware way) and flash CWM kernel using odin (do not check mark on the repartition!) It will be named voodoo.advanced.v666.2-20110111-21.53.tar. Let your phone reboot to normal rom.
4. Once it has booted ( It will do a lagfix before booting. ) make sure you have usb debugging enabled. (Setting, application, development USB debugging ticked.) Use recovery script found Here ( Included in package to get in download mode. ) to get in recovery.
5. Flash GalaxyS-efsBackup.zip
6. Flash Glitch kernel.
7. Go to advanced in CMW and use REBOOT RECOVERY. Your phone will always be rebooting recovery for now. we'll fix that later.
8. Flash the CM7 package. Reboot into download with the script included in the package up or hardware way. (Button work to get in download for me.)
9. Flash CWM kernel again using odin with repartition NOT ticked.
10. Restore EFS.
11. It will reboot in recovery. Flash Glitch kernel again and and reboot normal again. And voilà !
You are now on amazing CM7 with more even amazing Glitch kernel.
Thanks so much. Was waiting for a new kernel, this works on any froyo rom right?? And do I need to dl that wipe thing you posted to flash this???
Sent from my T959D on Bionix..

I get status 7 message when flashing CM7. Is it because I'm EXT4?
I'm getting the same message. Status 7 assert failed, I tried it multiple times. I used to run voodoo kernel but i disabled the lagfix. I reflashed Froyo JL3 a couple times trying different things but nothing worked. Still the Status 7 message when trying to flash CM7
Battery Drain
Does this kernel still have battery drain issues?
For people with status 7 error, did you flash the initial kernel first? If you didn't , try to flash it first. If you dont have access to recovery with 3 button combo, i'll post my way to flash it by the night. Yes battery drain bug is still here, but it's getting more and more like normal GB firmware.
Thanks to Glitch for the kernel and thanks to you for the new thread for telus fascinate. I already compiled Glitch kernel for just personal usage, but now i dont have to worry about that Thank you
Since today, I'm not gonna compile a new build for telus fascinate due to personal events ( studying, working, enjoying my life, girl friend, etc..) But I'm gonna still write a comment for this kernel and visit this thread.
Thanks again and Ill give you a feedback about this kernel

hehe, i know how it's hard to have a life xD thanks to have compiled zach kernel for us while you were able ^^. I'll keep this thread updated as TK update his own and gives us a compiled kernel ( Turn out I ain't able to compile it myself xD)
Thanks again TKGLITCH!
i hope oneday Glitch compile MIUI version for us.

- Added a DIDLE enabler into screensate scaling script to kill BT in sleep and make DIDLE work with both TOP=ON and TOP=OFF. You'll need to enable screenstate scaling in Glitch menu from recovery in order to get DIDLE to use this (disabled by default). It's mostly for testing purposes - Feel free to report your experience with it.
- Moved back to previous sysinit to prevent the DIDLE enabler script to make the phone hanging on the bootlogo. Also fixes screenstate scaling making the phone unbootable, and some SOD/COD issues for guys using some other tweaking scripts
- Implemented BLN9 port from Derteufel with NSTools compatible sysfs. This way all the unsupported roms will get led notifications, and CMLed haters will hopefully stop to yell..
- The flash-time script has been updated to be able to clean more stuff
- A few fixes on the wifi driver to work better with our devices Please report your experience with DIDLE enabled. It may be required to disable DIDLE on some phones to prevent SOD/COD/softreboots or other instabilities. Also MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A DAMN GB BOOTLOADER !
- Reverted modemctl changes from Teamhacksung - should fix data issues some are having

- Bootmode injection support.
- Various speed enhancements.
PREVIEW #4 :
- Fixed softkeys on Captivate and Fascinate.

- Removed the 200MHz lock when the GPU is active for battery life. Depending on your launcher and/or widgets, you'll get some slowdowns. Change min freq to 200 to fix it.
Major additions, ported from Ezekeel's work on the Nexus S (thanks Morfic !) :
You will need NSTools app, available for free on the market, or here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1333696
- Added "LiveOC" system, giving access to GPU/bus overclocking on the fly, per 1% step.
- Added "Custom Voltage" control, giving access to ARM and Internal voltage undervoling and overvolting. (This makes the previous leakage system obsolete, which is now removed.)
- Added "Battery life eXtender" mod, allowing the user to limit the maximum charge percentage to preserve the battery life (not the battery runtime obviously)
- Added support for DIDLE V2, a very low power mode that will help battery life in many idle/semi-idle cases.
- Lazy governor sysfs, to enable or disable the frequency ramping up when screen is off (to end tasks quicker to sleep faster).
Keep in mind CM9 is at early stages of development and contains many bugs still.
Thank You
You seriously just saved me having to learn how to modify and compile my own kernel. Thank you! I have an old Fascinate I plan on hooking up an arduino which I've turned into a custom BBQ thermometer. To connect it to the internet I planned on taking advantage of the new USB host features of ICS running on my old fascinate which could connect to my wifi and act as a server. I just realized yesterday that the kernel I was using didn't enable USB host. I'm going to give this a try when I get home today. Thank you!
[UPDATE] - I put the V14 B1 kernel on my verizon fascinate. I know it's not made for that phone, but for my purposes I wanted to let you know that it's working. I had to do a factory reset, but no big deal. I can see my arduino using the USB Host Controller app and I am about to start writing an app that will communicate with my arduino. I'll report back if I run into any issues though I know I'm using a kernel that wasn't designed specifically for my phone. The only thing I've noticed is that the home key and back key are mixed, but I could care less about that. Thanks again!

Is this kernel really running on your verizon fascinate? I'm tempted to test it out but don't want to risk anything. Also have you noticed anything else weird other than the home and back being switched?

Signal won't work, this kernel is GSM, your fascinate is CDMA.
Switching menu key and back key
This is a quick and dirty hack with [email protected] #1 and ice-cream-sandwich-sgs from the icssgs project, RC 3.1 released January 16th 2012.
If you happen to have your Home and Back keys switched, you can change one file in the system to make them work like they used to.
Code:
#Remount your /system filesystem as read-write
mount -o remount,rw /system
#Edit the file
vi /system/usr/keylayout/cypress-touchkey.kl
In the file, you should change
Code:
key 158 HOME VIRTUAL
key 102 BACK VIRTUAL
to
Code:
key 102 HOME VIRTUAL
key 158 BACK VIRTUAL
Do this at your own risks.
If this is off-topic, please direct me to a more proper thread. I believe I saw on the last V14 pre-release threads questions about those reversed buttons.
If this is not right for CM9, please forgive me, I still haven't looked at CM9 for my device.
BETA 3 is available ! I hope you'll enjoy it
Any chance we'll be seeing a version that will run on my Mesmerize? I believe I'd be looking for the Verizon Fassy build, correct?

You are right, the Verizon Fascinate version works on Mesmerize.
Here it is, if needed : http://androtransfer.com/tk-glitch/CM9-kernels/Glitch/Fascinate/CM9-fascinatemtd-Glitch-V14-B3.zip
Thank you very much! I see that the kernel I want won't work just yet with THS 6.0, and I need my 3G data so I'll have to wait it out a bit longer I guess.
Thanks again though, I'll keep my eyes peeled for the proper kernel!
It should be up in about two or three hours
wrong topic! Sorry!
Telus Fascinate beta 4 is up !
I'll revert latest THS changes. That should fix the SOD problems. I'll then upload B4.1.
UPDATE : Beta 4.1 pushed to supposedly fix SOD issue.
UPDATE : Beta 5 is up !
Glitch. I'm such a fan but can't avoid the sod no matter what I do. Still the best kernel even without activating didle ? Is it just me? On cna 1.4 b4.1 but had the same even with b5..
PLEASE FLASH A FREAKIN' GB BOOTLOADER IF YOU WANT TO USE THIS KERNEL !

What would be the steps to properly check the presence of a GB Bootloader on my cellphone?
Would the Baseband version in About phone be helpful? While searching informations about a gingerbread bootloader, I found that JVK is a recurring theme. Is the baseband related to the bootloader in any way?

Nothing in the about phone is gonna tell you about boot loaders. Are you or have you ran gingerbread 2.3 on your phone, if so then you have the gingerbread boot loaders. If you are still running froyo 2.2 then you don't probably.

I have been looking for this too.. i have updated the bootloader by flashing darky's 10.2 RE via odin and then proceeding, but I then have no way to enter download mode again..Ive checked every thread and have tried everything with no success. Does anyone know the correct bootloaders for the t959d (a lot of threads seem to have it but are full of brick comments)

I've been a long time observer and abuser of your roms. Figured it was time to come out of the shadows and give mad props to you. I really appreciate all the hard work you put into everything you do here on XDA. THANKS!!!:crying:
I wrote this quote during our little "Inverted Gapps" chat early this morning.. " Thanks for the Link Man... I will check them out.. I've installed Revolt, Pac & Carbon..( Damn can't wait to run Carbon with the Uber..that thing is fast as hell now..) " And I wakeup Hung the Hell over and find this Gem....
Thanks Given... Happy Daddy Day Man..
I installed this kernel on your pac build from the 10th installed fine I decided I would update to the newest build and just as you said root was lost flashed the su zip and all is good. this kernel is running really strong so far haven't had a single reboot yet. Is trickster really needed as my settings seem to be sticking just fine with the performance control option in settings? kernel is crazy fast though jamie :good:.

with trickster you can turn bln on, turn fast charge on, overclock the gpu ect..
btw @kim621973, could you unquote the OP in your post? its not needed and takes up space thanks!
Jamie... you're the freaking man! Running this with Carbon and all I can say is DAMN! Thanks so much for this!
Love this kernel, especially when it was in the ReVolt rom! but after i switched to carbon, my phone keeps dirty rebooting after I leave the Trickster Mod app. Not really sure whats causing this.... I've reflashed the kernel a couple times and its still doing the same thing. @[email protected]

thats the only thing i can see causing an issue as i used trickster mod without issue on pac/carbon/revolt/cos today and only issues were when root was lost

I wish it just closes lol but it keeps rebooting the phone i'll flash the root fix to see if it helps though. Thanks for the reply!
edit: what i meant was that after changing the governor and min/max cpu settings and then going back to the home screen it just dirty reboots

it shouldnt..
are you making sure to "set on boot" and disable MPDecision *this is a temp fix to get clocks to stick*
I made trickster a system app with titanium and it fixed the reboot for me

AH HA! that seems to have worked, sorry man i should read and re read the OP again ~_~..... this colds getting the better of me, but once again thanks for all your amazing work and help with my problem
During my Apps setup on Carbon, I got a couple of RR's but I must admit even though I always do a clean install, I did not run the root zip because you stated you only had issue with Pac one time.. So, I just re-wiped and installed the Pac package this time and did a Pac > Invert Gapps > Kernel > Root and this old Note is Singing a Song @ 1782 mhz.. 100% Rock Solid and no RR's.. I will go back and try Carbon again when time permits using the same install method I used with Pac and see what happens.. I hope to see others post their results with Carbon..

I don't know what happened with Carbon because I ran the same download yesterday and it was fine.. and I am currently running the same Kernel download with Pac and it's PERFECTION.. So, something happened during the marriage ceremony of Carbon & Uber.. But rest assured, that marriage WILL take place once this affair with Pacman is over..
Thanks for the settings pics Mr. D.
Build compiled from our CM branch sources with various optimizations / kernel features
Final build for 4.4.4 released (20th April 2015)
Many of the new features can be configured by kernel tools like Synapse. Install synapse app from market and UKM zip from downloads section.
We have moved on to Lollipop thread.
V7 [Changelog]
KERNEL:
- New hotplugs - ALUCARD, MSM
- MSM_limiter
- Fix synapse stuff - GPU etc..
- Governor tweaks
ROM
- Latest CM 11 sources.
- Fix chrome issues
- Fix button lighting-up when screen is off
Recommeded: Alucard governor with Alucard hotplug.
This is my synapse profile: http://goo.gl/3EbMUS
Note: For V6 and above (and specially for governors like zzmoove / alucard) , using Trickster/Synapse:
1. Disable MP-Decision
2. Enable intelli-plug
3. Enable intelli-thermal
4. And set to restore kernel settings on boot.
Old changelogs
V6 [Changelog]
- ROM sources updated to 20th November.
- Switch from O3 to Ofast [Even more compiler optimizations] and Re-enable Justarchi compiler optimizations [We have given up on exfat]
- GPU should now idle to 27MHz [instead of earlier 200Mhz]
- GPU overclocked to 535Mhz [earlier 500Mhz]
- CPU should now idle to 268Mhz (instead of earlier 300Mhz)
- Port few of my favorite governors from Oneplus one kernel these days - zzmoove and alucard: Both have been awesome for me (credits go to Oneplus one kernel developers - @Lord Boeffla, @ZaneZam, @alucard_24) - I will eventually start removing some of the older CPU governors. Looks like we have lots of them now.
- Various kernel patches - arch power, cpu boost, gentle fair sleepers, software crc is off
- Upgrade BFQ scheduler to BFQ-v7r6
V5.1 [Changelog]
- Newer sources from 20141107
- fsync is now disabled (Defers file writes but risk of data loss with crashes etc. Can be enabled in trickster)
- tweak intelliactive (hispeed freq was 2457, calm it down to 1985)
- voltage tweaks for speed 1 pvs 2
- default IO schd BFQ
- Frequency throttle limit increased slightly (Thermal policies can now be controlled through Trickster)
V5 [Changelog]
- Newer sources from 20141102 and use SaberMOD Toolchain, GCC 4.8.2 for kernel as well as entire build.
- Add a new hotplug engine - IntelliPlug (developed and used in famous Franco's Kernel) - I recommend to use this one, and switch off MP-Decision. (Enable in Trickster)
- Add a new thermal engine - Intellithermal (again from Franco) - Recommend to use this one. (Enable in Trickster)
- Add USB Fast charge (Enable in Trickster)
- Add another performance centric governor - SmartMAX (Combines features of OnDemand and SmartASSv2), Use it as gaming driver.
- Tweak intelliactive - Recommend to use this as default (Interactive is battery friendly but a bit laggy)
- Add powersuspend
- Reduce VM Swappiness to 10 (We have enough RAM)
- Some GPU tweaks
Other features
- CPU Overclocks of upto - 2457Mhz
- GPU overclocks of upto - 500Mhz
- Voltage control (UV)
- Additional CPU governors - Intelliactive, Intellidemand, InteractiveX
- Additional IO Schedulers - SIO, FIOPS, ZEN, VR
- Tweaked thermal policies (aggressive by default)
- Lower GPU clocks by default
- Reduced logging
- Net tweaks - Lock initial TCP window size to 64k
- FS tweaks disable atime and diratime
- Some mixer_paths patches (for higher audio) and button light fixes (to not glow on screen touch)
- Compiler optimizations

excellent!
I'll try it later.
I always flash PurePerformances™X mod after every nightlie and it feels somewhat faster after it. I did flashed it on all my devices.
Maybe you can insert it in your future builds.
Keep them coming !
LE: mod link fixed
Thanks for this... Will give it a shot!
For anyone wanting to try this.. So far so good here. Hasn't been running long enough to make any major comparisons yet. Clean flashed, so not sure about dirty flashing.
I installed it over nightly and it runs pretty well but the playstore icons bug is pretty bad.
For now I moved on to the next nightly but if you can fix that bug I will surely flash it again.

Should be fixed with Linaro 4.9 (thats next). Trying out a few more optimizations for next build (expect to post one on weekend).

Don't pay attention to benchmarks....
If you want to meet or beat stock, just turn off thermal throttling, enable all 4 cores and set performance as the governor. Make it a fair comparison...
Finally a linaro build!! Keep up the great work! Could you modify the kernel too? Overclock cpu and gpu would be awesome...

@crpalmer
I suppose we are talking about /etc/thermal-engine-8974.conf, /etc/thermal-engine.conf (symlinked to thermal-engine-8960.conf) and /etc/thermald.conf (symlinked to thermal-8960.conf) on cm builds. They seem to be using different set of values from stock.
Can't we not use these values/files directly-from/similar-to stock builds ? As the thermal engine libs and binaries we are directly picking from stocks ?
Is stock too aggressive or CM too defensive ?
Also noticed that these linked files are broken as well. (no thermal-engine-8960.conf and thermal-8960.conf). Some build script issues ?

I wasn't suggesting that you turn that off permanently, that's just what the stock ROM is most likely (automatically) doing when you run a benchmark. That's how you get a higher score, not how you have a better ROM...
My point being, don't worry about whether or not the scores are better, worry about the whole experience being better (which is very much is). On a phone of mine, CM was way more performant even though it scored less than half of stock's Quadrant score.

I agree benchmarks are just academic (and just nice-to-have). I was just suggesting that we could use same thermal configuration files as found in stock builds. Are these even the files that would affect benchmarks (thermal-engine*.conf and thermald*.conf) ? Are you suggesting that stock build just shuts off any kind of throttling as soon as it detects benchmark tests ? I thought only some devices did that and they got caught.
I am building with linaro 4.9 and have swapped out those conf files from stock. Lets see how it goes.

Unfortunately, Linaro 4.9 is breaking stuff. Getting into a bootloop n all. Need more time.

Been struggling with some adreno crashes on boot when using 4.9 toolchain. Earlier I thought it's the compiler optimizations not playing well with 4.9. But I run into same without any customizations -
Here's the logcat if anyone wants to take a look.
http://pastebin.com/eS0eHvzL
If I can't get around these in a day or two, we'll come back to 4.8 and carry on with other optimizations. I read somewhere the gibberish icons are fixed on newer play store.

Its probably the adreno libs built using older tool chains.

Just posted another build with today's sources with both CPU and GPU overclocks. Had to go back to older 4.8 toolchain. The overclocks are running surprisingly stable on device.
The playstore icons issue is still not resolved. Its being discussed here. However, I am not too worried by it.
