---NEW KERNEL THREAD---
This kernel is based on Hardcore's SpeedMod K1-T30 Kernel
Why another kernel?? Because I can, I like the challenge and I can probably do it as well as any other?
Features:
support for SetCPU OC (upto 1400MHz)
UV between 800mV and 1400mV
support for Boot Animation
support for BLN
SpeedMod K1-T30 initramfs + boot animation
SpeedMod K1-T30 kernel source patches
Samsung Update 2 Applied (as per K1-T30
CIFS working
Charging touch sensitivity fix.
The goal of this kernel is to take the battery savings gained from HardCORE's kernel and allow undervolting and underclocking to further improve battery life. I added Boot Animation and BLN support just because I could.
As usual, this kernel could break your hardware, so only flash if you are not concerned with bricking your device.
That said, I have flashed this kernel on my device and it still works.
Thanks also to the authors of Ninphetamine kernel - their SetCPU supporting code was the basis for the SetCPU support in this kernel, I have also used BLN code from their Git Repository, thanks to creams.
Change Log:
v1-T26 - public release based on SpeedMod K1-T26
Added BLN support
Added SetCPU support
Added UV support
Added bootanimation support
v1-T27 - updated base to SpeedMod K1-T27
v2-T27 - updated base to Samsung Update 2
Same feature set as previous versions
CIFS working
Closest match to SpeedMod K1-T27 but with Samsung Update 2 sources
Touch sensitivity fix from ninphetamine.
v1-T30 - updated base to SpeedMod K1-T30
Same feature set as previous versions
Future plans:
Keep up with SpeedMod current releases as they happen and source patches are released.
NOTE FOR ALL:
Patch files are for developers, not end users.
Source patches attached for developers - apply against Samsung Update1 sources.
Source patch for v2-T27 and newer to be applied against Samsung Update2 sources.
Gonna try this for sure , always loved Hardcore kernel, back in the Gti9000 times, but i think that OC/UV is something missing in his kernel. I'll report when i'll have tried it out ^^. Thanks !
nice.. waiting for you to update to t26..then will give it a go

Typical Victorian!!! Oblivious to the rest of the world.
Good to see many Kernel developers coming on board
May be its time to disclose the sources and GPL as other KERNEL threads being locked for want of it.
Other developers whose initial thoughts/ideas was reused will benifit everyone if what you have achieved over and above will make the original Kernel even more robust

I fully intend on posting a patch file, just not at a computer where I have access to my sources!
First - thanks for this project!
Second - I tried your kernel and I have had some problems with haptic feedback on my phone, it doesn´t work.
Edit: I´m on Darky base XXKH3..

Thanks for that, I didn't even notice that Haptic feedback wasn't working!
Great work !!
Just tried it and No problem so far.
Wait for your next update, based on Hardcore's SpeedMod T26
cheers
Works great for me, too!
Just as already mentioned above haptic feedback isn't working, but I don't use that anyway.
I guess this kernel is in the wrong section. Although I do admit that this requires far more skills winzipping a rom together, this is basically a matchup of ninphetamine and speedmod, and therefore has nothing to do with original rom development.
Well, it's not a cut and paste coding job if that's what you're implying, I studied the required code from Niphetamine and implemented it (but reduced speed limits and subsequently speed steps) in the source for SpeedMod.
IMPORTANT: all vibration not working in first beta. Will fix and repost. Sorry, but it is a beta!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
If you can please mod the T26 to add these futures: Bootanimation,BLN, OC and UV. Very ngood to see more and more kernel options available. Thanks for your work man

Can't code for toffee, wondering how difficult it is to alter said limits/steps and put them in another source?
Genuinely curious - doesn't sound tough, I stand to be corrected and/or educated.

Maybe you should have listened then.
Been playing around with Kernel development and created an overclocked kernel for the 4.0.2.A.0 stock Rom.
There's nothing too speciall in it at the moment, but lets you overclock the Ray to 1.9Ghz using the source released by SE and the modified CPU steps that IF2 posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1165355
There's no custom bootloader/Clockwork mod and no additional governers (at the moment) although I may add these in future as I learn more.
It seems to work well enough, and everything seems to be working as standard. I experience random lock-ups at 1.9 and occasionally 1.8Ghz, especially when it goes into/out of sleep when the screen turns off. Lower frequencies seem stable though.
This is released as-is, I'm using it myself but I can't be held responsible for any instabilities or failures you might experience. Just thought it might be of use to some people.
The new .img file can be downloaded from here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17615284/4.0.2.A.0-Overclock.img
To install just use fastboot in the usual way. To return to stock, extract kernel.sin from the official update image using WinZip/WinRar etc and flash using fastboot again.
Thanks a lot hartej !
Just flashed it, seems to work as described. I OC to 1.4 Ghz
Will report back if there is any issue.
Looking forward for additional CPU governors, insecure kernel, autoroot and clockwork recovery
Thanks again for your hard work

That's the plan eventually, but still just learing the ropes so don't expect all that by tomorrow Glad I could help.
Thanks for the efforts. I set up to 1.3 Ghz and so far so good.

Finally? Cheeky buggar!
Not really had any time unfortunately due to work, but if you've updated the defconfig for the Ray I might have a bash at your sources in the morning (still don't understand them!)
Thanks again though - if it wasn't for your help and the fact you stopped developing for the Ray I'd never had started playing about with kernels myself!

It could be a good idea to move this thread in the newly created subforum dedicated to the Ray: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1351
Can you also make a kernel for cm7 with some other governors like Doomkernel's one but for fxp043. Thanks in advance
I've created a new thread in the Ray forum as I don't think I can move this one without being a mod: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18829345

This is all pretty new to me, so don't expect too much too fast!
In future I may look at CM7 images but currently I'm on the stock firmware (at least until the flash in CM7 is fixed) and as I have to use the phone daily I'm not prepared to switch between firmwares to be developing for different sources at this time.
I've been using CM7 on my other devices (HTC Desire and ZTE Blade) so will most likely switch to it when some of the bugs have been worked out.When this happens I'll look at the CM7 Kernel.
This is Rage Kernel v2.9 for Xperia Mini / Mini Pro / Active / Live recompiled to run on FXP CM7.2.0 ROM from Freexperia Project here.
The boot image consists of kernel compiled from DuMOHsmol's Rage Kernel v2.9 source, FXP wi-fi driver and FXP ramdisk. It is tested running in FXP122 CM7.
The kernel is compiled using FXP default config, modified to enabled added features in Rage Kernel, so overall the features is similar to Rage Kernel v2.9 (see post #2 below)
Credits:
Many thanks to DuMOHsmol for Rage kernel source and DoomLord for providing the base/stock source.
Thanks for Freexperia Team for making such a great rom.
Thanks for wucinac, HUdasp, gandhar, Snoopo, & jakobxxl for initial testing and feedbacks.
This kernel will not be updated everyweek like FXP rom releases. It would only be updated if there's update in Rage Kernel or there's update in FXP ramdisk/ROM that requires changes in this kernel too.
I mainly compiled this kernel because it gives good battery life, so I haven't tested all features that Rage Kernel offer. Therefore I can't really confirm that those added features will work fine in CM7. What does work is the basic functionalities (like calls, wifi, bluetooth, camera, etc) and added cpu governors, overclocking options, and added i/o schedulers. What I haven't test: zram and swap.
And because I personally considered this kernel as some kind of a workaround for the battery drain issue in fxp kernel (see post #3 below), then if FXP team has fixed it, this kernel might be no longer needed.
As of version 2.6, changes from original Rage Kernel source are below:
4 files in Rage source replaced with files from FXP source :
- arch/arm/mach-msm/board-semc_mogami.c
- arch/arm/mach-msm/sdio_ctl.c
- drivers/mfd/marimba-codec.c
- drivers/misc/lm356x.c
Files sdio_ctl.c and marimba-codec.c is replaced to avoid compiling errors when using fxp defconfig. The file board-semc_mogami.c is replaced to fix touchscreen problem when using original file. File lm36x.c is replaced to fix force close problem in Torch app.
Another change is patch from here applied to fix the touchscreen issue.
Changes in version 2.7 are included as a patch files in the download post below.
Changes in version 2.8 & 2.9 are related only to cpufreq driver & cpu governors, so the patch from 2.7 can still be used, but the cpufreq part of the diff must be removed.
Version 2.7 / 2.8 / 2.9:
Please see all download links for Mini/Mini Pro/Active/LiveWithWalkman in this #75 post.
Flashing disclaimer applies! Use this kernel at your own risk.
How to use:
1. For the first time CM7 users: Flash the Freexperia CM7 kernel & Rom first, and make sure everything works fine, and then continue to step 2. For those that already have CM7 running, just begin at step 2.
2. Flash this kernel using fastboot.
3. Reboot to CWM and wipe cache
4. Reboot again.
Notes :
- This kernel is not supported in anyway by FXP team or original Rage maintainer DuMOHsmol. Anyone having problem, please don't ask them for support. Just ask in this thread & I'll try to figure it out.
- Battery life is not solely affected by the kernel. It can also be affected by apps/mods/tweaks used or applied in the rom. If battery drain is high, then please check what cause the wakelocks using apps like BetterBatteryStats here
- There are instances that using Google Maps or Latitude (or maybe other gps-related apps) would cause GpsLocationProvider keeping the phone awake, like the case in this post #82 and post #34. This situation can be diagnosed using that BetterBatteryStats app mentioned above. The workaround is to disable gps and reboot the phone.
- Of course, other than advantages, there are also disadvantages using this kernel in FXP cm7. Advantages including: a bit better battery life, more cpu governors, more i/o schedulers, etc. Disadvantages: I perceive sdcard i/o is somewhat slower, sometimes there's lag in video recorder, there might be broken features in future FXP releases, not supported by FXP team, and there might be other problems that haven't been encountered yet. If anyone experiencing more disadvantages than advantages using this kernel, then please consider using FXP kernel instead.
Features (quoted directly from DuMOHsmol's Rage Kernel original post here ) :
DuMOHsmol said:
This is my kernel, it's based on stock SE 4.0.2.A.0.74 kernel sources, with some things from DoomKernel by DooMLoRD (so go and say thanks to him, and other developers too).
It has:
- Overclock up to 2Ghz
- CWM Recovery 5.0.2.7
- Prerooting
- CPU Governors:
brazilianwax
smoothass
smartassV2
SavagedZen
interactiveX
lagfree
minmax
Scary
smartass
interactive
conservative
userspace
powersave
ondemand
perfomance
v2 added:
- Xperia Mini support
- Tun/tap interface enabled (VPN, ipv6)
- Swap support enabled
- Two way call recording support added
- I/O schedulers:
noop
anticipatory
deadline
cfq
bfq
vr
sio
v2.1 changed:
- disabled NFS and CIFS (battery drain fix from DoomKernel), let's see if it can really increase battery life.
v2.2 changed:
- moved to from 4.0.2.A.0.58 to 62 source, though I didn't see any changes
- added 0% battery workaround patch by Bazoocaze. I don't even know what it does but it seems to be something useful since everyone includes this in their kernels
- New cpufreq driver from DoomKernel. You can experience some problems with overclocking now (my phone becomes unstable at 1.8GHz now, instead of 2.0), but phone eats much less battery in sleep. I've also changed 1018Hz to 1024Hz and 249Hz to 245Hz because those new numbers looked wierd
v2.3 changed:
- moved back to 4.0.2.A.0.58 source (just to make sure that everything will work).
- updated version number in ramdisks to 62.
- removed 0% battery workaround patch (it's useless on our devices).
- reverted old cpufreq driver with small fix. It should be stable now and phone seems to eat less battery than in 2.1. (thanks himasura for lots of testing)
- salvaged some ram.
- enabled NTFS support.
- enabled usb-storage driver, so you don't need to manually load usb-storage.ko now.
- Version number now shows version of kernel (#23=2.3).
v2.4 changed:
- Now phone lights up blue led to show when you can enter recovery (thx to DooMLoRD).
- Minor changes in ramdisks.
- Enabled hid drivers for microsoft and a4tech.
v2.5 changed:
- Re-added CIFS
- Enabled ext4 support
- Added zram and cleancache drivers
- Added lulzactive governor
- Root fs now mounts as rw after boot.
v2.6 changed:
- removed lulzactive governor as it wasn't working properly (thx to kamarush and others for pointing that)
v2.7 changed:
- moved to sony 4.0.2.A.0.74 kernel sources (updated touchscreen driver)
- Increased GPU dedicated memory to 4MB
- Updated su binary in autoroot.
v2.8 changed:
- added new cpufreq driver at last (with CPU frequency fixup by DooMLoRD), battery drain is lower now. I left version 2.7 too for those who want higher overclock or have some problems with 2.8.
Everything else is similar to stock kernel for now.

A bit background:
I use FXP CM7 rom for my mini pro since release 049 and like it very much. One thing that made me keep switching back to stock rom was the high battery drain, because in my daily activities electric plug is not always readily available, so battery life is critical for me.
In fxp 052 I got a bit desperate and trying to use custom kernel based on stock from bbooff here, with fxp rom. The battery life is excellent, just like stock rom, but I encountered 2 problems: touchscreen sometimes become unresponsive and wifi was not working (even if I replaced wifi modules with stock).
Finally, I decide to learn how to compile android kernel, and I found that it is quite similar with compiling linux kernel, which I've frequently done to my computer and laptop.
So, I compiled kernels from 3 sources and compare the battery life in my mini pro. They are from DoomLord's official SE source, DuMOHsmol's Rage kernel source, and krizky82's X Kernel source. I also recompiled kernel from FXP kernel source using stock semc_mango_defconfig, to see if battery life is better. The conclusion is that best battery life is achieved using stock and Rage Kernel, and I've been using FXP with rage kernel since release 102 and haven't considered going back to stock rom again.
I posted in Rage Kernel thread to thank DuMOHsmol, and since then there's 3 xda members that ask me to share this kernel, so I make this thread.
I hope this could help those who want to use FXP CM7 and need a battery life that's close to what stock rom offer.
Note:
As of release 114/115, FXP kernel also has better power management and quite a good battery life. The power consumption difference between this rage kernel and fxp kernel is not as much as it used to be before. In case of broken features or any problem caused by using this kernel in FXP cm7 rom, then please consider using FXP kernel instead.

Okay, I'll check it. I might zip the wrong file. What is your device? I assume it is mini / st15? Because kernel for mini pro works fine in my mango. I'll check and if needed I will re-compile it.
Edit:
I think the problem was I incidentally used wrong ramdisk for mini kernel.
I have made a new kernel for mini, but it needs testing first. So, if anyone's willing to test it, please send me a PM. Thank you...
Edit:
Fixed. Link for mini updated.
Thank you!!
Im using cyanogen fxp 111

Or need make a full wipe?

Well, overclocking is the feature that I very rarely use. Because I use this kernel for better battery life, and overclocking might just negated that

I have installed your kernel on my sk17i .. with FXP 111, but overclocking is set to 1024?
v2 Released. Scroll down for info!
Hello,
After lots of help from sirkay and FXP, I've built my own kernel that I thought I'd share with you.
This kernel wouldn't exist without the hard work of FXP. This is built from his source code. All real credit for this belongs with him (and DoomLord too, also an FXP Team member)
That said, this is my take and keeps the rather awesome release that is CM7.2 alive!
To be clear: This is a kernel for Cyanogen Mod 7.2 - Gingerbread! If you want a good ICS Kernel look at Sirkay's Thread.
So, what's different?
Uses a very recent GCC to compile, GCC version 4.6.3 which I optimised the build for Cortex-a8 and NEON.
Is compiled for performance not size (Optimize for size unticked)
Heap Randomisation is disabled.
Enabled SWAP - So you can use swap if you want to...
Default Scheduler changed to deadline, same as the Sony official kernel (still has bfq if you want to use it)
Default governor changed to ondemand.
CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT turned off. (This might break apps, haven't found any yet though)
Disabled CPUFreq Debugging.
Disabled FRAME_POINTERS, enabled STACK_UNWIND. Reason here: http://lists.openmoko.org/nabble.html#nabble-td6126708
There is no boot logo when this kernel boots. Each time I added one, the kernel refused to boot. I'll look at that. Just have patience, your phone is booting still...
(Here's where I make lots of stupid claims about how smooth, how buttery, how much battery life this kernel saves. Except I'm not a screaming idiot, so I'm not going to do that!)
I'm interested in any feedback you have, but I did this mostly for me.
And please remember the real person to thank, FXP. It's his source code I've used to build this. Also again thanks to Sirkay for his help and pointers.
Download it from here.

so good, This is what I looking for
@muppetmania attach here you png file. i can try to convert it to .rle for you
Could GB MIUI have the privilege?
Could we have a CM7 based MIUI 2.3.7 kernel?
I think GB MIUI works just fine and don't want to upgrade to ICS or JB.
But a better kernel for GB MIUI is always appreciated.
Thanks in advance,pls let us know if you'd be willing to.

Thanks sirkay, but the problem isn't that I can't make a rle file, it's that the rle file when added to the ramdisk stops the kernel booting. It seems to a bug in the SEMC loader, I found a post about it somewhere. Does the boot.img need to be padded out to a certain size to work?
Sometimes my logo.rle would work, but then I'd make changes, recompile, and the kernel would hang on boot. Annoying, so I've removed it for the moment.

Hi rivtre,
I'd love to help, but my Ray is the only phone I have and is running CM7.2. While I could make a kernel for MIUI I'd have no (easy) way to test it. It wouldn't be fair to anyone if I started releasing untested things. So I'm sorry, it's not that I don't want to help, but no. Anyway, read the next bit to see why that's probably not a bad thing!
To All:
My kernel seems to be terrible when it comes to HD video recording. Can anyone else test this? I get heaps of dropped frames using my kernel when recording HD video vs a FXP Stock kernel. I need to look more at this, but for the moment I'd recommend not using this kernel!
v2 Released!
Version 2 of muppet kernel released.
What's new?
Compiled with GCC 4.7.1
Reverted to BFQ Scheduler by default
Reverted to Interactive CPU Scaling by default
Added logo.rle so you know it's booting!
Removed Debugging Symbols (CONFIG_KALLSYMS)
Reverted the scheduler and CPU scaling as they seemed to be the cause of the video recording lag.
Enjoy!

does the kernel also work with this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424121?
can I flqsh the kernel with flashtool?
is overclocking possible?

Not sure if it works with the stock ROM or not - try it and report back.
Yes, like all kernel images, you can flash it with Flashtool.
You can OC up to 1.6Ghz.
I tried it, but It doesn't work. Booting failed

Just flashed your kernel, going to give a test run! thanks!!
Edit:
Well it doesn't seem to me that the camera recording works at all ... pictures = fine - but when trying to record video - the image freezes - and the camera app crashes.
I have to reboot to get back into the camera app...
Also, can't play any video I previously recorded...
Anything I'm missing?
I've flashed your kernel and did a cache + dalvik wipe...
Cheers!

Oh, well that's not the sort of feedback I wanted!
I haven't done much video recording the last couple of weeks (I've been away from work)
Let me do some testing and see what I can find...
Thanks for reporting
If you want a logcat I'll make one and get it to you , cheers

I didn't edit the ramdisk yet, but i will add init.d support in next version.
I don't mind it. Just don't forget credits.

Oh, then I'll wait for next version before I add it in my ROM
Anyways, this is great! Great to have yet another developer in the DX section
And we finally got a custom kernel for DesX.
Thanks man, added to Index.

Hot diggity! A new kernel!!!! Awesome! We can over clock with this, right? Not that I'll over clock, just to ask

Not yet. But i can make overclocked kernel later. But i think 1ghz dual-core is enough for ics.
I think that greater number governors and schedulers are more important than overclocking, you're 100% right with speed for ICS and even JB.

not a kernel feature requires correct media codecs.
Edit : @Dev congrats First custom kernel for this device(max safe oc for this processor is 1.2 GHz just saying) also a request can you add ROW IO sheduler heard its better than SIO also PegasusQ/D governer.In next release.
Thank you.

my work on cm10 boot was stuck on ramdisk issue. i posted a last_kmsg which showed that kernel booted but ramdisk had issues.
i dont understand kernel issues very well, but hope to get it working now that you are here. i'll ask for ur help from time to time.
plus, i want to take permission to use ur kernel tree for building cm9/10 from source. dont wanna use prebuilt now.
last thing, what is the difference between an ics n jb kernel, exactly what needs to be modified to make it work?....
thanks

Ramdisk(sorry couldnt resist) among other things but for initial booting ramdisk.
PS might not be the best person to answer though...

Qualcomm S4 Play is made for speed 1-1.2GHz, and that's the safe range of frequencies. Remember that this is ARM-cortex A5 not Krait, and more than 1.2 can really harm it.

I know ramdisk, but let me rephrase my question, what exactly (in ramdisk) needs to be modified and how, to make it work on jb. Anyways, i'm still figuring things out by trial n error so progress is very very slow. The logcat was the only thing i ever got to which showed the cm10 logo as well but then, everything MESSED up. Havent been able to replicate that result since.

The difference isn't just in ics and jb. the difference is in cm and sense ramdisk too. I don't know what need modify yet, but i will start the work with cm later when i have enough free time.
Feel free to use my sources.

my bad edited.seems mixed it up.
So happy to hear such good news for the DesireX! Finally the developing for this device is becoming richer first of all, thank you for this custom kernel and thanks nexus prime for his effort to port the CM series I'm not an expert but yeah, sense and AOSP/AOKP Roms need different kernels. To learn more I think that Dennis Rassmann (the creator of the famous Bricked kernel series) or faux can answer your question about ramdisk, if you contact them (they are really kind and gentle). After that I would like to ask if it's possible to add the useful sweep2wake function to this kernel, in future. For now, good work guys, never give up!!!
