I haven't seen anything online about this problem... but I installed Kernel Manager today from the Market and tried downloading the Tiamat kernel for CM7. It downloaded just fine, and then it upacked it and started to flash it. The flashing process took forever, so after about 5 minutes I started looking at my phone and noticed a low memory notification. The one that says you are running out of phone storage. I then pulled up Disk Usage to see where it was all going and Kernel Manager was growing and taking up all my phone's memory. I think the app itself was 74 kb?? Something like that? And then while it was "flashing" the data for Kernel Manager was up to 115MB. Then everything on my phone started FCing and I had to reboot.
Anybody seen this problem with the newest update? I'm running 1.1.2.
Delete that bs and install kernels the big boy way; grab the zip then flash in recovery and reboot unless you like apps holding your hand and eating up free space

I had the exact same thing happen to me a month ago or so. Not with the kernel manager, but it was from the teamwin hdmi app trying to install the modified kernel, and it hung up in the process. Then I had a notification of low memory. Then I rebooted and it hung at the splash, lol. Had to nandroud restore. I never let an app flash anything after that. And that was the only time I tried.

Now that seems a little extreme. Taking up space? The app is 350 KB. I'm sure you would never miss it.
Holding my hand? Oh you mean like Rom Manager? Do you still browse online and download one at a time?
I don't have a problem flashing the kernel myself. I like the interface to download and browse kernels. But there is obviously something up with the flashing process. I wish you could choose to just download the kernel and flash it myself.

Yes rom manager also holds peoples hands. I just download via my xda app its easy as pie. Plus flashing kernels in recovery is proven to be better in the sense that KM can fail the flash process sometimes and cause issues. I have my personal reasons why I will NEVER use rom manager on my phone but that's not important . As I've seen around km is definitely having issues with its flashing process with some kernels and it seems that shinzul has been addressing them very fast. If you could choose and download the kernel "yourself" wouldnt that be the same thing as getting it and going to recovery lol? Thus taking us back to square one of km manager being useless?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
No, square one was the question being asked by the OP. I don't use ROM Manager either, not for any specific reason, but I suppose if I was still flashing ROMs like a mad man I would consider it. What's so bad about KM housing multiple kernels in one location so you can get a quick and easy glance at your options instead of hunting them down? Or for that matter, ROM Manager.
It's also not 'holding your hand' when you've been down the road multiple times. I tend to peek my way through kernel / ROM threads just for the sake of finding out any possible issues ... but some people just want to get in, flash, get out and be done with it. I, honestly, don't see the problem with it.
As for the OP, not sure what to say as I've had no problems flashing kernels from KM.

Exactly. The only reason I like a ROM/Kernel manager is to have them all in the same place and easy to download. It makes it easier to look at the list of features each one offers, and see reviews/complaints. I dont need anyone to flash anything for me. I can do that on my own. I just want an easy way to download them. The only problem is you can't ONLY download with KM, you have to download and flash.

Not useless at all. I understand if you would rather spend time flipping through forum pages trying to find the download link. That's your choice. Having it in an organized list with specs is my choice. I definitely would not call it useless -- it'll actually save you time.
This Mod is flashed through CWM to enable 2 simple all-in-one commands to Freeze/Defrost SNS, DRM, and System Updates. Downloads at the end of this post. Read on to learn what they do and how to easily use them!
Fully Flash-able Test Version HERE
Freeze SNS, DRM, and System Updates for Better Battery
These services are, generally, best kept frozen 99.9% of the time. Not deleted, as I've experienced problems if they are actually removed, but disabling them saves me noticeable battery life.
You can use Titanium Pro, MyToolbox, ,Bloat Freezer, or Mybackup Pro to freeze services, but that's only after you've installed a rom. Then once you boot in, you have to buy and download that app, and then navigate a huge list of services to freeze.
But it only takes one line of code per service you want to freeze. That's right, the following commands can be entered into a terminal like Terminal Emulator to disable these processes:
Code:
su [I](Gains root)[/I]
pm disable com.sec.android.providers.drm [I](Disables DRM launcher)[/I]
pm disable com.sec.android.app.sns [I](Disables sns)[/I]
pm disable com.samsung [I](Disables updates)[/I]
However, these commands are lengthy, not easily memorized, and just a pain to write. The best solution I can come up with is to simplify the commands.
[Note] You do not want to do this if you don't understand how freezing these services may affect your day-day use. This will save some battery at the definite cost of DRM content functionality and Facebook Contact integration.
How To Use This Mod:
Still using Terminal Emulator, after you flash one of the linked .zip files, all you will have to type is the following:
To Freeze Services:
Code:
su
superfreeze
To Defrost Services:
Code:
su
superdefrost

I am still in the works to make this work entirely solo once flashed from CWM.
PS: If you're looking for a free alternative to any of the apps I listed up above, this isn't it. This is only one small, dedicated part of those apps. I highly recommend buying one of them, you'll find them very useful.
PPS: This mod, and subsequent versions of it(hopefully!), is for the Epic 4G. I cannot guarantee that the script is accurate to any other phone. But the commands themselves are universal across Android.
Thanks to paulobrien for his explanation found here!
I can't answer you script question, but I have one of my own. Are those commands permanent, or will I have to type those in everytime I turn my phone back on? I'm assuming the latter, since you want to be able to do it easier.

These commands are indeed permanent on reboot. Pm Disable is exactly the function apps like Titanium use when "freezing" services. The goal is, I would like these commands to be executed while my rom is installing. I used a similar .zip file as a skeleton for the layout, but I'm just not sure what additional coding is required to make this work. I'm 99.9% positive it can be done.
Oh ok. So I now don't have to disable the drm or sns anymore. Cool, if I ever needed to re-enable them, what would I type in?
Sent from the only thing i need.
Surprisingly logical, you just have to type enable instead of disable.

It's a shame, it'd be nice to have a rom install with some services like this disabled by default. Then there could be a matching patch to re-enable them if needed.

I'm guessing that the Android runtime system has to be fully initialized and running for the pm command to work, and it's not in the limited runtime of the recovery environment.

That seems to be the problem, because I've gotten the tiny files themselves to run in the terminal, which is at least useful for streamlining this operation! But I can't get them to do anything in recovery, it just has no effect.
So I have come to the conclusion that this cannot be done from CWM due to reasons I've explained in post #1.
However, I have posted a workaround CWM flash-able which, still using Terminal Emulator, simplifies the commands down to 2 simple codes.
UPDATE: Turned out I posted bad .zip files with out of date updater scripts. The links have been fixed and should work as described in Post #1!

Yup, kinda! The guys that wrote apps to freeze services deserve a lot of credit. They are fairly easy to use in bulk.
I wish I could make this automatic, but this way I only have to type two easily memorized commands to stop/start the 3 services I hate most!
UPDATE: Mediafire mirror links posted for when megaupload wants to be wonky.
You might be able to make this fully automatic with tasker. There is an option "device boot," there is the ability to launch an app, and to type, then close the app. Might look a little sloppy, but it should definitely work. I'll try it and report back later today.
EDIT: Works like a charm. For the Context, go into Event, System, Device Boot. For the Tasks, choose App, Load App, Terminal Emulator, then Input, Type, enter the text, then choose Input, Button, Back twice to close out of the app, as the Kill command will just restart it.
For what it's worth, there must be a way to have an application start off as disabled, because that's how CIQ starts, as far as I know. Perhaps the dev of the paid application Autostarts can shed some light on it for you.

Thats a nifty trick! Now I could patch Tasker and it's data into the rom itself. Now here's the question, is Tasker a persistently running battery draining service?

That may be true, but SNS, Updates, and DRM have to run consistently. Unlike some certain apps that run non-stop for no reason.
Just make the zip add a file to init.d that executes the command on next boot then deletes itself...

I actually tried that, but the command "pm disable" just doesn't do anything from recovery for me. Unless I'm not calling for a function I need or something. Still toying around with it. I even tried to just patch it into one of the existing init.d files, but still no result.
Update: I'm a noob at developing. I can roughly understand existing script enough to rearrange it, but if somethings missing, I probably can't spot it. Haha
I would really like to try out the v6 script but I need some help understanding.

Download script manager when you first run it hit menu/more/advanced options/config and check off browse as root then back out and go to the v6 script and when you run it check off "run as root" then just pick the setting you want .
If it doesn't stick on a reboot go into ect/init.d by hitting the top file till you see ect and check off both the scripts in there that say 99complete and 99SuperCharger when you hit them just check off run as root and run on boot and hit save don't run them.

cant wait to try it out my self
I'm still lost on it. The guy has like 8 d/l's on that thread. Which one is which??
Its the supercharger with the latest update. Its say something like 6.2.2 update so and so. Then u can get kernel tweak and 3 g tweak. Remember to get ones with most recent update. Really not that hard to figure out
It in it self cannot be explained neither can it creator. since using it on my evo and my wife's Epic. Both no longer lag or freeze up. Simply Awesome!
OK, I got the V6 running now, option 6, balanced. I seen a lot of people use Option 9, but I figured I'd start out slow. So now, this will ruyn on every reboot? Or do I need to go to Script Manager and run it every time? And why is it that it says to use a lower version of Busybox than I have?
Now, what about the kernalizer and 3g tweak? I used faster. I guess I COULD have used fastest?

I tried to run v6 today without downgrading bb and when I went to reboot I got stuck at the splash screen if that didn't happen then I guess your good .
To see if it sticks on reboot just add the script manager widget for that script and run it to see if the settings are the same for some reason I could never run the 3g script with it, it would never let the v6 script run at boot but I'm sure I was doing something wrong.

Mine did reboot just fine, so we'll see.
I had tried to run this once before, and I had deleted the old V6 script I had on the card. Now it shows up in the console along with the 99 supercharger. I can delete the old v6 but is the 99Supercharger there from now, when I just set it up?

No leave those scripts there they are the scripts from v6 if you want to get rid of v6 then delete them and to see if it stuck on reboot check your numbers I forget what they are called but they look like 6,10,20,30 etc.. See if your previous ones match your current ones if it stuck they will be the same if not you will see the stock ones in current.

You're telling me you don't have the ROM in the root of your SD card? Just start over a reflash the ROM if you can't use your backup.
If not, mount DATA
open up command prompt (if you're using windows)
adb devices
adb push exactnameofromthatsinyourplatformtoolsfolder.ZIP /data/media
Since mount usb storage doesn't work (don't worry it's not just you) /data/media acts as a link to the SD card.
RESOLVED
This didn't seem to help me at all. Also seemed to make my battery drain faster, but what do I know.
I even checked another one in the similar posts thread before finally writing this up. Ok
heres the skinny.
Rom is obv decks reloaded, as far as i know i have the latest update, released on the 25th of may. 44 mag rls.
i did the custom install and went with just about everything optional. (i also have run it in the standard install, the questions i have remain the same, affected me both ways)
I declined to run dtapps2sd because i have so much music on my sd card that backing it all up before wiping and partioning was just not an option.
Using amon-ra recovery
did complete wipes 3x, plus the wiper zip recommended, i love it. It is dam near perfection. Everything runs better, battery lasts longer, no more sprint nascar updates, no more sprint anything, I still have a wee bit of room left on internal storage, i just have, a few little questions/problems
1.I cannot for the life of me, figure out how to download attachments from my email in this rom, i have tried different email apps, ive tried installing the gmail attachment fetcher apps, everything i can think of. still cant get it to let me download anything, wont even pop up the option, just shows a paperclip, mocking me.
2.this might be my main irritation, i dont know what the deal is, or what is going on, but on my first install, and now randomly on my final, i get a weird, brrrgrgrggrggg dj remix dubstep lag sound while im playing music, and sadly, the dsp settings enabling the bassboost, is actually one of my FAVORITE parts about this whole rom, it makes my music sound great, but when it does that nearly in every song playing. it gets annoying, and im trying to figure out why.
I have a 32 gb kingston card, its always worked great, its not even a year old. and its never had a problem before. i still have 8 gigs free on it. I also noticed, when i did my final install, it seemed to actually stop doing it. Until i tried to plug it into my laptop via usb. Then, it was doing it really bad. Took the micro sd out, put it back in, settled down a bit. but i dont know. its a strange, strange thing. Anyone else having this issue? Or know a cause?
3. The usb tether... I saw this quesiton posted before, and the only suggestion was downloading the same version im already running. It will connect, but then, it just keeps asking to connect again, and my status bar starts bouncing text up and down, just go with a usb sync app from the market? any thoughts?
finally,
4. I know its on there, but how do i install the miui cam, i have a file explorer, i cant find it. Is this because im not running apps2sd? If not, where is it located, i looked under apps and data, i did not see anything, and then if i can get pointed to where the heck it is, what is the process, moving it to the folder the actual camera is in, and renaming it to an apk?
I admit. Im still new to all this.
but i do have much love, and, i owe xda, android forums and max @ evohacks alot of thanks and gratitude. Im doing my best, at giving a little where i can
i was going to post a screen shot,but i cant, because im too new , to show i did buy the xda PREMIUM app, what what hahaha...
any help, especially from one of the devs or a certified super genius on this rom, would be greatly, greatly, appreciated. ****, ill say it right now. help me solve these problems, and i will donate to your cause, buy your t-shirt, subscribe to your twitter, blog, whatever(sell my soul, give you my firstborn child....). Truly. and i stick to my word(especially on the soul/child). BIG BIG THANKS to all the devs who made this rom, TRULY. i FN LOVE IT. and if i never figure this crap out, ill keep using it anyways. Until they make a newer one, or i get my GSIII whenever someone decides to tell me when theyre going to actually release the 64gb version. ok. probably way too much talky. bye bye

I'm not sure about your other questions but at least for this one you need a file explorer that allows you to browse outside the sd card (I use root explorer) and then it is in data/app and is labled "MIUI Camera 17.apk" just tap it and it should ask you if you want to install it. At that point it is just an app on your phone.
For the other questions you might be better off posting this in the thread for Decks reloaded. Once it is in there you are more likely to get a response from rope, jaime or one of the other helpful people using this rom who know more than I do
I had the usb problem as well in fact posted about it a few days ago. What worked for me was the second solution of downloading bootmanager lite from the market hope that helps you!
thank you guys

ok, sweet, yeah i mentioned looking at the other threads in similar mentions when posting this. I saw that. I will try it out, or i can always stick to pulling the card itself and using my adapter.

If you're having a problem with the rom, and can find the answer after searching xda and google, the dev's are usually ok with helping you out. If it is a problem unique to you, they'll try and help you and if it's a global problem with teh rom, they will want to know about it anyways.
btw, I replied to your pm about the file explorer.
