Hi y'all.
I am new to development and would like to get started with some small kernel modifications.Seeing the fact that I am a speed freak(even if I cannot notice improvements,just knowing that my CPU runs at higher values feels gooooooood!) I decided to start from what I miss from some roms(like LeeDroid Mod),the option to overclock.
I searched inside my system files and found in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq a file called cpuinfo_max_freq which contains the value 998000(the maximum frequency) and scaling_max_freq which also contains the value 998000.I tried changing these values to 1382000(too much,I know...),saved the file,but when I opened it again it was back to 998000.
I was doing all this with ASTRO,but then it occured to me that I would need Root Explorer.However Root Explorer is a paid app and currently no paid apps are available here(I live in Greece).
So now I am thinking of reinstalling the rom but with these values changed from my pc,inside the .zip file.I don't know if that'll work though,I'd think it'd be much more complex,not just change two values and job done.
With that in mind,I'd like to ask if doing something like that would do the trick or if I need to recompile the kernel.If that's the case,how do I recompile it?
Please bear in mind that I am a total newbie and these are my first steps into developing.Until now I had only been installing what other people had already made.I decided to start learning so someday I will be able to contribute to the community.So please don't be harsh with me or treat me like I'm some stupid guy.
And I put the thread in development because I believe it fits here and maybe some other people learn from things said here.If the mods decide it doesn't fit here,then please move it to general or Q&A.
I sincerely hope some of the great minds here help me.I acknowledge that most of you here aren't random guys,but developers with talent and many contributions to the community,that's why I ask here.Thanks in advance!
Don´t know if you know...if... forget the post
In non Sense Roms the source is out..so you can overclock....HTC have not released the source yet..so we don´t can overclock
just for info...with kind regards..Alex

They haven't released the source yet?That I didn't know...Stupid guys that they are,they're making our lives more difficult!
Anyway,the point of the thread isn't only how I can overclock my device,but to learn.If the source was available,would that be the way?
Thanks Alex-V!
Edit:BTW,does anyone have any idea when they will release the source code?I believe that it won't be long...

mmhh don´t know it also...but at this time we can underclock via set cpu and the permanent perflock disable.ko and some cpu covenors (thanks flohimself) and undervolt (thanks iscaela)
look to this post..ihave posted some links..you need a patched init.rc in the kernel to load the modules on start
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8048986&postcount=12
I'd give all that a shot but you know,someone else has it working for me!
However I searched the .zip of OpenDesire 4.0.4 and didn't find any options regarding the clock speed.I thought I could begin there...

I got myself a Galaxy S to play with now, and so far the good part is the nice screen...
ive done some porting to motorola milestone which i will start looking into on this phone...
As i understand Kernel can be customized and we can pretty easily install mods using update.zip ?
is updating ramdisk "easy"? if you can handle linux quite well? anyone with instructions on building the initrd image?
secondly building an image? should it be tar'd using odin? or using update.zip?
problems on milestone has been "usb" steeling battery as the native support on htc is different so handling it required a scripting workaround..
with senseui the biggest problem will be porting Bluetooth as it is very different from standard google practice...
anyways i hope to be able to contribute with a SenseUI and MotoBlur port to SGS soon, when i get time to research handling on this model.
i'd really like to help you, but i'm not able... this morning i studied some tutorial such as http://pdk.android.com http://android.git.kernel.org http://d.android.com, but i'm new with linux and i can't understand anything... however i was asking myself the same questions...

Well, IDK if this easy, but manageable. Both odin (easier) and update.zip (more stable) options available.

Samsung is using a zImage. Compressed Kernel + Initramfs.
Since for 2.2 is no Sourcecode available till now, it's very hard to modify anything.
2.1 Source is available at opensource.samsung.com.
You can pack the zImage with tar under linux and flash with odin or you can flash the Image directly using redbend_ua (OTA Update) through an update.zip.

thanks, im primarily persuing this as a personal challenge, but of course if ppl likes my work its great.
one note is, as written earlier, more experienced guys will be required to finish the bluetooth adaption, its alot more complex than the remaining parts.
and im told even on older htc phones it was hard to port drivers for bt.
my 2.1 sense mod on milestone was ok, except milestone only had 256MB, which resulted in many reloads of senseui.. here i think we can stabilize, even with a modified kernel to add swap if needed (if the 512MB utilization becomes a problem)
I would be very interested in a Desire HD rom for the SGS .
If it is completely functional for all the functions I use (I use no Bluetooth for example), I would be willing to donate too.

Wasn't the JPM source leaked for a little while about a week back? Is that the source code to which you're referring?
Edit: Sorry forgot to check the post date, so at the time you posted that, the source code had not been leaked
I am in need of a kernel with loop enabled. I am in the newest OTA, if one doesn't exist I could use some help compiling one from the newest source, I have everything I need to do it on my Linux machine I am stuck trying to find which makefile to edit and where the .config file containing CONFIG_DEV_BLK_LOOP is located.
If it matters at all I would much rather compile my own kernel so I can learn something new.
Thanks for any help guys!

Really!? I am not lazy or dumb, I have gone through a lot of kernel threads and it is not stated wether or not loop is enabled, all I am looking for is a kernel close to stock with loop enabled, come on guys I know someone here knows of one, if not is ANYONE willing to work with me while I learn to make one?

LOL. I'm on the more technical side, program for a living and have compiled a share of Linux kernels in my life, and I'm not quite sure what you are referring to. Sadly most of the sharper devs pretty much handle these forums in a one-way manner, they put out stuff, but they rarely read other people's posts. There are plenty of people that like to help out, but most of those folks aren't going to know anything about compilation.
The makefile you need to edit is in the root of the kernel source. The very first one that you see.
I am referring to loop devices support, this enables me to boot ubuntu on my Evo, it is one line of code that needs to be un-commented and changed to "CONFIG_DEV_BLK_LOOP=y
I am just lost,I was following this tut here http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-hacks/how-to-build-your-own-htc-evo-4g-android-kernel/
but the directions seriously slack off from step 11 onward, any ideas?
Do you by chance want to install Ubuntu on your phone? I think I saw something pertaining to that in some instructions I browsed over a while back.
lithid-cm said:
Grab the latest HTC source code:

I have all the files I need, I was following the tut at htcevohacks.com but the instructions seriously slack off & there are numerous makefiles in multiple folders on top of that I can't seem to find what file contains the line config_dev_blk_loop, could you point me to a more complete walk-through please, oh and I am on the latest OTA with the newest kernel and radios.

Ok, well I guess I am gonna just have to PM each Dev individually about each individual kernel, damn all I need is a how-to or tut on kernel compiling (which the search function apparently can't find) or someone that knows of a 2.2 kernel with loop devices enabled. Oh well.
I'm pretty sure netarchy kernels are loop back enabled. Ask around there maybe.

YAAY! LMFAO, I will ask there, sorry I'm excited but I have been trying to get this working for a while; I would much rather learn to build it myself but I will take what I can get for now.
IF ANYONE knows where there is an in-depth tutorial on how to compile a kernel from the newest source I would be extremely appreciative, THANKS
Did you ever find or get your Complie to work? I tried for a while to compile the stock Kernel, then gave up. I took a stab in the dark and flashed a stable netarchy kernel. unfortunatly that Kernel didn't have Loop devices enabled (Pulled Config file and Unzipped it) I like the Kernel I am running but need to find a way to get ubuntu running.
Netarchy does have loop enabled, I am running Netarchy ___(will find which version later can't remember) but yeah I am running Lakia Linux
now(network security testing, think Backtrack 3) as well as another new Linux image from a guy here, anyways I think you need Netarchy universal cfs havs less no sbc 4.2.2

I want to start this thread to keep up the progress on the port.
the bad news is that the SDK is incomplete for now, so (like other devices)
we will have to write our own code for the OS, the nook community
has done a wonderful job writing their own libraries and stuffs, so we will have to do the same.
Instead of pursuing different goals, let's focus on one thing at a time.
since GSM and CDMA versions are already out, it seems we suffer the same bugs, so for now let's unite strength and knowledge to overcome these.
I propose that the first goal to fix is the SurfaceFlinger, so we could at least see the apps, the buttons and the notifications.
it is currently throwing this:
04-06 22:01:35.495: ERROR/Surface(2960): dequeueBuffer failed (Out of memory)
this could lead us that it might coudln't start because of some malloc malfunction or something.
also that pvrsrvinit bugs me a lot.
update:
8/APR/2011
since DiP7 could fix SurfaceFlinger and other things using a different build from the GSM kernel, we have to dig deeper
======================================
CURRENT GOAL
Rebuild Kernel
======================================
Current approaches:
*none
Post any finding, guessing or anything, and please, please don't be afraid to ask anything you have a doubt, as a Dev you should not know everything, so we can help us each other

Mmmk.. Let me tell you a story.
A long time ago in a galaxy far away... No, that will take too long. In a nutshell, one third of the answer is here, another third is here and the rest is here. I'm not trying to be intentionally vague, I just haven't figured out how these three fit together yet.
Of course, there could also be some bit of code that I missed... some telling line in a debug log that I overlooked or some driver or library that I could have decompiled to sift through its juicy secrets. There could easily be a fix that would take seconds to add and make the whole thing fall in line...
Or we might have to work it from the ground up.
Either way it will happen. It's just a matter of whether it will happen next week, or next month.
(Watch it be a misplaced semi-colon, or a bad symlink... that's how these things go.)

The kernel source that you have linked to is 2.6.35.7 for the Nexus S gingerbread and is not fully maintained by samsung but rather by google.
However I do not think you are wrong that there is a problem somewhere in the kernel. The kernel that has been released for the galaxy tab is a mess of horrid code, I have had to re-write parts of kernel drivers just to get them to work under linux, I would not be surprised if similar patches are needed for honeycomb

Yes, and it contains some support for our device (s5pc110), and some more that can be added (pvr) and the architecture necessary to fully support HC without patching the build itself. If we work only towards patching the system build to communicate with the hardware, we won't be able to run AOSP hc versions when the source drops without going through the same painstaking process of hacking the system to function (while creating numerous faults causing FCs in the process). If we build a new kernel, we can get the hardware to communicate in the way future android versions want it to and we can then do what we want with ease.

Hi everybody,
I have made a free application to install any kernel on your SGS very easily.
The idea is that there is a website where kernel are uploaded with a script and an application to:
- search
- download
- install it on your phone.
The application and the website are not limited to install kernell but I think it is a good way to try it.It can execute any script in the android shell.
So I have made some script for some kernel, there are so much that I have not the time to make one for each of them.
To make a script is very easy, I have attached an example of one I have uploaded on the website. If you need to attach a file, put it in a zip and upload both (the script and the zip) through the upload form on the website,
The address of the website is:
http://www.2borange.com/
A general thread on XDA (not dedicated to kernel on SGS) about the application:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14875954#post14875954
You need to create an account to upload but it is not mandatory to just search, download and install a kernel.
Please keep me informed if everything work or not. I have only test it on my phone.
For the author of the kernels: I am sorry to have not yet informed you of the sharing of your great work, I will do it for sure when I will have done enough test to offer you an interesting way to share your work.
For the user: if you have time, don't hesitate to upload some scripts, it is free and easy to do...
Thank you for everything,
Michael

Thank you for your message.
I did not know about this application. I have read the description and I can tell you the purpose of mine is totally different.
I have understood that Nedar application is to install a Kernel that you have already downloaded and copy on your SDCARD.
The purpose of my application is to download automatically a script and a zip file, and execute the script.
So there are 2 main differences between these two applications:
- my application get files you need directly from the cloud (Internet), so it is like a deposit of files
- my application is not limited to kernel installation, it is just a usefull example to show people how it works, but it can do more, really lot more tasks.
However, because the application of Nedar is dedicated to one particular task, it has option I have not yet implemented in mine. By example, I have not yet construct a script to backup the kernel in an update.zip file, which could be very usefull.
So they are really very different. I hope I will be able to construct more script, but may be the biggest difference with any dedicated application is that anyone can participate to my project without any knowledge in Java programation.
You just have to know a little bit about shell to be able to share your work with others.
THAT IS THE REAL PURPOSE OF THIS APPLICATION : SHARING!
Amazing concept!
Thumbs up for the foresight for such a nice project. If enough effort is put I can see in next couple of months, the whole, ROM, Kernel, Modem flashing automated.
Right from finding the correct software till installing them and may be some debugging and fault finding as well!
Will definitely donate in case the project takes off the way it should!
Great work Snoopy!
Loving the concept of this!
As omzworld was saying, if this grew into a script that could automatically install your ROM/kernel/modem etc. that would be awesome, especially for people who are new to flashing.
Now, here's another suggestion that may or may not have been thought about already..
Is there any way to make the app look at your phone and use that as a basis for roms, kernels etc. ? If that was possible, anyone and everyone would be using your app to flash because they would know that bricking their phones would be almost impossible.

Amazing concept!
Thumbs up for the foresight for such a nice project. If enough effort is put I can see in next couple of months, the whole, ROM, Kernel, Modem flashing automated.
Right from finding the correct software till installing them and may be some debugging and fault finding as well!
Will definitely donate in case the project takes off the way it should!
Great work Snoopy!

Thank you for your interest.
The thing I need now is not money, donation,etc... but report of test and ideas of improvment.
By the way, I only have a samsung phone, and I am wondering if there are possibilities to install kernel in other phone only by using the shell, have you an idea ?
Second question: have you an idea how to proceed to install an entire ROM through the shell ? I suppose the phone has to be rebooted before installation begin and lauche in a recovery mode, but how to make it automatic like in ROM Manager?
Thank you for your help!

I have already included a kind of filter based on brand, model of phone and firmware version plus sdk version, do you think it could be more precise?
Fixed script on server, should work on every phone now
Hey snoopy33, why do you have not yet updated this page?
hi everyone
well, i read for the forum and some threads about how to make a kernel,
but i have some doubt,
really a want to create a kernel for app tun.ko because according the app its possible that tun support is COMPILED WITHIN YOUR KERNEL.
well, my phone its cdma and i don't know how to get a kernel for modify, i think extract a kernel for mi actual room CM7 but i don't know how to do.

Yeah, this is great idea!
I doesn't know too, but when I know, I will made OTG support kernel
lol, have you ever tried something easyer??
I have no idea from ROM but i tryed some ROM modding and that wasn't that easy. A tip try first something basicly and more easyer. It's like you want to build an computer without knowing anything about electric
