[Q] Dr. Ketan's V3 rom: Kernels Kernels Kernals - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running Dr.Ketans V3 Rom on my GT-N7100, I'm geting major stuttering during music playback when my screen is off, I've been told its a kernel issue, my question is; are there any kernels which support Dr. Ketan's V3 rom that i could try out?

Seriously?
Honestly it never happened to me! Think that's strange. BTW I think soon we'll get new kernels from the developers. By now Dr. Ketan said there's no possibility to change it, if I remember correctly, even in the Aroma Installer it says "new kernels coming soon"

thanks

thanks for the reply, I'll wait it out.

We won't get any custom kernels until Samsung releases 4.3 source code. (i.e. After 4.3 official release.)

Thay all read have

Not yet happening to me. Wait for the official release instead.

I think there is some Google issue. I have used 2 4.3 ROM on my Note II and both the times my Google accounts vanished. All my data is synced with Google account and there is nothing i can do but sync everything again. I did read some place that this is the issue with the ROM. Aren't others facing this issue. I have no options but to go back to 4.1.2 XXDMG1 ROM.

Music playback stuttering / choppy with Dr. Ketan's V3 ROM / Android 4.3 leaked FW

Yes. I had the very same issue. Music playback stutters upon screen-off with Dr. Ketan's V3 ROM. I discovered a work-around for this:
1) Try turning off 'Power-saving' mode and check whether the problem persists. If it does not solve the issue, you could proceed to step 2 below.
2) Download and Install 'System Tuner' app from play store. The app will need root access to be effective.
3) Launch the app and go to the 'Tweak CPU' screen. Make sure you note down the default settings for the CPU Governor Type and Min and Max values before making any modifications.
4) I had changed the Gov. type from 'pegasusq' to 'Ondemand' and set the min value to 1000 Mhz (1ghz).
5) Navigate to 'boot settings' menu (icon next to Gov. speed control)------> 'Screen-off behaviour'---->Governor-->Value should be "No governor changes"
6) Navigate to 'boot settings' menu (icon next to Gov. speed control)------> 'Screen-off behaviour'---->Max frequency-->Value should be "No governor changes"
7) Leave the app running in the background and then go back to your music playback. Now the stuttering/choppy should not appear again.
8) Post your music play back session, I would recommend using 'System Tuner' to revert back to the original / default values, just to be safe.
Step 5 and 6 are very important and is not to be missed.
It appears that the problem is because the CPU speed is scaled down to a very low value for conserving power upon Screen-off with this ROM. Not sure whether this is a problem with the ROM or if its a problem with the leaked Android 4.3 FW.
Important Note: Do this at your own risk. CPU governor changes if not done properly can lead to over-heating and even damage to your device. I take no responsibility for your actions and the consequences by following the above ideas/techniques.

Try the audio player "Player Pro". Within Player Pro there is an option to download and activate a DSP pack. Once the DSP pack is activated, it offers you the option to adjust the "Audio Buffer" and also set the "Audio Priority". I set both of these to the maximum values and that seems to solve the problem for me.Of-course this is an app specific solution.
You may need to buy Player Pro to get all the features. I can't remember whether the free version offers, DSP features, cos I bought it long time ago and find it to be one of the best audio player apps in the marketplace.

You should immediately revert it to the original/initial settings. BTW: have you tried Dr. Ketan ver 6.1 ROM? I did not find the problem so much with the latest ROM. Also, do check whether you have power saving off.

[BOOST] Give your Desire a REAL boost! [Root required] [Batterylife + performance]

This tutorial has been written for the XPERIA X10. But it should also work on other devices. Official thread can be found here. Please report if this works on your HTC Desire. Many thanks. Before even trying this, make a Back-up of your current ROM!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
[Compatible with 2.1, 2.2.1 and 2.3.x]
[Warning, these apps are NOT paid! Only setCPU is paid, you can get it from the Android Market!]​
-- You need to root your Desire to use these apps! --
[/
If these simple Android Market apps, cause any problems on your device it means you've got something unstable installed on your device! I never had problems with Autokiller, setCPU and AutoRun Manager on any ROM.​
Hey,
In this thread I will show you how to get a REAL boost on your HTC Desire! This method could also improve performance and battery life on any other handset. This is compatible on Android 2.1, 2.2.1 and 2.3.x. (This way of boosting performance is without Systcl config! I suggest you to uninstall Systcl config, since it doesn't improve anything for me (and maybe for more persons here).
This method made me lose 0-2% in 9 hours on WolfBreak his Cyanogenmod 6.1.3 and ALL 2.1 ROMS! These simple apps, did improve my performance and battery life!
Lets get to the point
Download this and this package, put in on your phone and install them!
Lets config it now
Open Autokiller.
Go to the tab Memory limits.
Now put these configuration into the 3 boxes. (If these values cause problems you can better uninstall AutoKiller. Lower values are almost android default )
Hidden app: 150
Content provider: 160
Empty app: 170
Now press on Apply.
(Don't put these values listed above higer. If you do your device can start to malfunction)
Now press on the Menu button on your Device and tap on Settings. Now make sure Apply settings on boot is turned on! After turning it on, press on Advanced system tweaks. Now make sure that Battery and Memory management are turned on!
Exit Auto Killer by pressing the menu button and reboot your device.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now open Autorun Manager.
Now make sure every service that is listed in the tab Basic you don't need is turned off! Make sure you only turn off things in the tab Basic! After doing that, exit Autorun Manager with the Menu button and reboot your device.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You don't have to buy setCPU. In this way it will only save some battery when your screen is turned off. It's to you to buy it if you want to save a little bit of battery. This configuration only effects you device when your screen is turned off. Don't expect with this setCPU very big changes!
The settings here below won't cause any lag when coming from sleep (atleast for me). Even with heavy apps.
[To get the XDA-free version of setCPU take a look at this post. Credits for telling this are going to DooMLoRD]
This step has a payed app. You can buy it from the Android Market. The app is called ''setCPU''.
Buy setCPU from the Android Market. Now open it and do the following:
Tap on Show Other Frequency Sets and tap on the list on Nexus One/Snapdragon [QSD8x50]. Put
Now press left in the corner on the tab Main. Put in the scaling bar the maximal frequency on 998MHz. Now put the minimal frequency on 245MHz.
Now press on Scaling and choose out of the list Ondemand, after pressing on Ondemand turn ''Set on Boot'' on.
Now press on the tab that you can find next to Main. It's called Profiles. Make sure that ''Enable'' turned one and Notifications turned off. Then press on Add Profile. In the Edit Profile window you have to put the following settings:
Profile: Screen Off
Max: 384MHz (Don't put it lower or it can cause malfunctioning!)
Min: 245 MHz
Scaling: powersave
Priority: 100 (High)
Then press Save.
Then reboot your device and enjoy!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your Desire is now fully optimized with a few simple apps! Not only the battery but also the performance! And... Don't forget to press the ''Thanks'' button instead of saying Thanks in this thread
Have fun!
Regards,
PlayGunsta

There is not much diffrence between these two devices. And all apps are also downloadable in the android market. So it couldn't (shouldn't) cause any problems at all.
i thought those on CM7 cannot use setcpu and set power profiles.

Lagging with cow rom v7

Low post count, so can't post in the dev thread. I installed cow's rom v7 and had lags after using for some time. Checked the logs and and saw some error that keeps generating. Anybody has the same problem too? Hope to get some answers from cow.

Make sure zram is off and put governor on ondemand
it will reduce the lag
Yes. I have experienced the lagging before. Just do as what Rio said, off zram & use ondemand.
I've set zram off (and triple buffer on), accepted to give superuser permissions and reboot the phone from the CowPanel. When the phone turns on again I open the CowPanel and I still get "zram on" and "triple buffer off".
Does that mean the changes haven't been applied?
I didn't have any problem changing the governator using No Frills CPU Control instead.

The easiest way to check it by using Set CPU
Do you have Set CPU app ?
Go to Info > Memory
Take a look for swapcached
If it has 0 kb it mean the cache is off

Isn't there a FREE alternative for that?

[ROM][ICS 4.0.3] [27.05.2012] HeroICS v3

Hello,
I'm reactivating this thread since I cannot talk with samm every now and then to update the OP from this thread here.
What works:
It is stable for a daily driver but there are definitely things that doesn't work. For starters, the Hero is too small for ICS since we don't have any GPU posibility. Adreno 130 drivers are oh, too small and too bad for animations on ICS, they suck even in GB and Froyo. Still, the statusbar and fling are much smoother than other android releases because that's how ICS is built. It is more RAM friendly and it looks, well, sexy!
Will try and update this rom when it will be possible. We might jump on the bandwagon of 4.0.4 if I can make it to move faster than it moves right now (yes, I have an experimental build).
If one of you want to join me to develop this rom further, send a PM and I will send you some details about what is in the works, how far it is. I know there are few people that can work on builds here on Hero thread but if we work together, we can pull this out one more time.
FLASH THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR:
- YOUR BRAIN
- YOUR HOUSE
- YOUR PHONE!
ON with the ROM. What has been changed:
Added:
Code:
- Google Music apk (yes, official google music app);
- Explorer.apk
- Latest and greatest LV Kernel 1.2+
- Revert to Evtoolbox back from 4.0.3 builds
- Set the cpu to scale at 352-672 from startup
- Tweaked the build.prop a little (added some experimental lines)
Why this is v3?
Because the memory management inside the kernel (remember, INSIDE THE KERNEL) is tweaked and fixed to nice values in order to allow our hero to better multitasking (you can find these values in my other rom called 1ceCream BEAST Flavor). No need for tweaks in init.d to do the job, no bull****.
Just plain and simple!
If you are texting someone, sending an email, playing a game, doing something, and you are locking the screen, after unlocking you will find that the application is ON the screen, and is not closed how it is in many other roms for hero. The multitasking with my values is so much better, you will definitely like it!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The rom moves fast, even if it is ICS, I have the animations on and no force GPU in Developer settings and it is still moving so much fast than the older builds.
Overall, I am happy with this release and I hope you will be too! Post me some of your opinion and tell me if it is fast or am I dreaming!

If you make these changes maybe you'll see better performance, the hero can't handle dithering on anything higher than stock GB or Sense froyo and doesn't have enough RAM for 48mb of dalvik heapsize. I may be wrong but these always worked for me in the past altough ICS is supposed to be better on RAM.
dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast
dalvik.vm.heapsize changed to 24m or 32mb
persist.sys.use_dithering=0
Good work. Flashing now.
How about keeping this as lite as possible, only the absolute essentials pre-installed, everything else as optional zips / apk. For instance, I personally have no use for the music player.
I would really like to see a bare bones, fast and stable ics rom where you just add what you need.

Unexpected reboot just as I was about to install Opera Mini. Followed by: "New Sim Detected, reboot required." Never seen that before.
I've applied CSL00's values.
Wonder if V6 Supercharger or Auto Memory Manager can improve things.
Play Store is noticeably faster. Unsure if was CSL00's values or the introduction of AMM.
Regarding the error message: 'No more room on this home screen.'
In Play Store app. Menu > Settings > Deselect Auto-add widgets.
Second unexpected reboot, otherwise things are getting faster. No wifi issues, BT still won't pair.
Running AMM on 'Aggressive.'

dalvik execution mode was on fast until I changed it in the last second to "jit".
vm.heapsize was changed to 48 because I was testing 32 mb and I saw that it takes a little while to enter in one application. With 48 mb the time is reduced somehow. Please feel free to change it to 32 mb if you want. Dithering, well here is a mistery, I don't know if this works in ICS. It does look a little better than with it changed to 0 and my phone can suport dithering pretty well.
About the reboots, please install set cpu and set your max cpu frequency to a respectable value such as 691 or lower. I suggest using governor smartassV2.
The whole rom does feel a little snappier but we have an issue when someone calls you and after 20 seconds the call gets interrupted. I'll look into that today after work and see if I can fix it somehow.
I've tried Supercharger, the V8 doesn't wanna start on ICS and when applied V6 with option 6, the phone just got stuck on bootloop.
The reason that I've made it like this with apk.s that you can easly uninstall is that I didn't want you guys to have to flash any other optional zips or anything. But as I said, feel free to do what ever you want and uninstall those unused apps.
Oh, If you want to try supercharger yourself, you have to first delete these scripts from /etc/init.d:
03tweaks
04netspeed
05fixsdcardspeed
06loopy_smoothness_tweak
15cleanup_init_ram
16sqlite_optimize
17speedy_modified
Just to avoid any unexpected issues.
L.E:
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE, make a LOGCAT while you are in a call and save it to a txt? I want to see if we can narrow down the problem of disconnecting. I am unable to make a logcat atm.
1ceb0x, back to using your original build.prop, and Setcpu. Things seem more stable.
I'm looking for a notification toggle (cm-style) that has no icon when running (or only hides it, leaves a space.)
I will make a logcat, but I've tried aLogrec and all it seems to produce is an empty file. Should it not be dumping info on any activity I do?

Seems stable than samm000's build.prop?
Glad to hear this.
As for the logcat, you cannot use any of the readers on the market because they will not work on ics. I've tried to make a log using android sdk but it seems that we need a file called 'main' in /dev/logs. I tried to make the file manually but then I've encountered an EOF read error on cmd. I forgot to make permissions for the respective file. Will make it again now and see how it goes.
As for cm notification toggle, I don't know what are you talking about. The notification toggle on ICS is nicer than any other available .
Tell me if you have calls issue (your call is disconnected after some seconds)?
Well it is probably more stable because I reduced the cpu speed.
In a voicecall now, 2mins+. Call lost around 3 mins.
6mins+ this time and still going...

Yeah, 'Force GPU rendering' is enabled. In a voicecall now, 10mins+.

10 minutes without disconnecting? What's your settings on network? GSM ONLY, or WCDMA preferred?
(to see this, please go to dialer and dial *#*#4636#*#* , then go to Phone information, scroll down and you will see the value above the button "Turn Off Radio").
as default the version is WCDMA preferred. What Radio firmware are you using?
also, did you installed Habarug's tweak to hide the end button call during a call? (it's in samm000's thread).
this information will be helpful! cheers
WCDMA preferred. Radio: 63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.11
I have not installed Habarug's tweak.

It was 22mins when I ended the call myself.
Regarding notification toogle this is what I mean: 15 toggle status bar as implemented in this rom. Check the video.
Very ODD.
I have 63.18.55.06OU_6.35.15.01 on my device with WCDMA preferred but I keep getting call disconnected after 10 seconds or so.... regarding the notification status bar power widget, I don't know what to say. I'm not a dev so...
i'm trying to find a way to make a log cat of the calling issue because I don't really want to change my radio because my version seems to be battery friendly...
thank you for your support
Obviously the notification thing isn't even important right now. I shouldn't really have mentioned it.
I thought this radio was considered one of the best to be using, and find the battery life to be good on it.
Don't know if its the best really. But I've flashed it anyway. Since this will end my calling interrupt, it will be a small price to pay if the battery doesn't play well.
Will test the voice calling. Btw, I am maybe working on RC2, with some new tweaks and fixed latinime.apk keyboard..
can confirm right now that the latinime.apk is fixed.
@Habarug: are you using my mod or sam's rom?
Thanks lost, will try your radio, im on .14 atom
Just to clarify, the radio I am using still has calls dropping with ics. It seems to happen at random times. 1 minute into a call, 3 minutes or not at all. Maybe it's because of the numbers I am ringing. I can't be sure they would not drop anyway. But it sounds like it is doing better than some other radios.
Also, what about having a build based off ics 4.0.4?

we have to fix this issues first and then talk about another version. anyhow, 4.0.4 is much laggier than this version. i saw a bit of logcat and some awkwardly errors regarding the "animations" but i was unable to save the log for future use.
I've asked Maclaw, a dev from Galaxy Gio/Fit/Mini who made CM9 possible on those device to look at our build and maybe with some luck he can see something that make this calls drop...
managed to past 3 minutes in call with your radio version lost101. cheers
L.E: I am unable to send PM's. so i cannot ask Maclaw for help.. too bad! I'll just have to post on their op!
Come on people.. test the build!

[Q] Huge FPS drops in games

I searched the forum and saw some people had similar issues but nothing in the other threads seems to have fixed their issue.
I am having huge FPS drops in games after about 5 minutes of play time. I never had this problem when I was on stock, and ever since I have tried a few different ROMs and all of them have the same result. I found that if I turn my screen off for ~30 seconds the lag will go away for about 2 minutes but just comes right back.
Currently running SOKP ROM.
Games that I play are Valkyrie Crusade, The Gate, Heroes of Camelot.
Any help would be appreciated!
Ok, so the issue seems to only be present while charging. Does anyone have any suggestion on how to alleviate this issue without unplugging my phone from the charger? My battery does not last as long as it used to and I can only play for about a half hour before my phone battery starts to get extremely low.
Does your Rom allow for Changing of Governors and Voltages ? If so, then try Trickster Mod. If it does not allow such changes then switch to a AOSP Rom and then Flash KT747 Kernel by @ktoonsez. that kernel has profiles specifically tailored for Gaming.
That kernel was not compatible with AOKP Roms until Recently. I do not use AOKP Roms so I am not sure if AOKP Code has changed to make it compatible.

The app from the app store? I don't know anything about Trickster mod.
Yes its the App in Play Store. If you are not comfortable tweaking those parameters, then leave that alone.

Any recommendations on settings then?
Explore the thread on Undervolting / Overclocking in my signature. Let me know if you are comfortable with making that kind of changes.

I checked it out but it seems pretty confusing.. still not sure what settings I should change. Why would it be different from stock rom though?
In that case, please use the App "Fast Reboot Pro". It also creates a shortcut on your homescreen that, when clicked, will improve performance.
You may also want to apply V6 Supercharger Mod by @zeppelinrox.

My ROM is 4.4.2. Do I still need to apply the Ultimatic Jar Patcher?
I have not kept up with the more recent developments on that thread. Search the thread or post the question on it.
If your battery is getting low that quickly and easily your best bet, imo, is to replace it. Aa they age and lose capacity they also lose the ability to run the hardware effectively. Youre probably seeing lag because it just isnt able to provide the stable voltage required to run the cpu/gpu at full throttle very long.

I tried these modifications and I am still getting terrible FPS drops.
Your only other option is Fast Reboot Pro in lieu of Governor changes and Overclocking.

Question. Why does my s4 keep overlooking itself?

I have a S4 mini running custom carbon kk unofficial 4.4.3 as it comes with the settings to set CPU's and governors but the phone keeps changing the min to around 1400 but the max stays at 1700.i don't notice until my battery is draining really fast or gets hot. anyone kno a fix to this?

Which governor is it using to set a min of 1400? Ever likely it gets hot and eats power! I use f4k's kernel, and the 'Performance Control' app to look at and alter stuff - you don't say what you use or have tried.
There is a Carbon 4.4.4 available with f4ktion 1.5 kernel - might be an idea to flash that and the problem might go away!

It's on every governor this happens but I use Wheatley. I would manually set it to around the 300s but in a couple of hours it would auto set at 1400 on its on. This causes my battery to drain my kernel version is 3.4.91 f4ktion 1.4.5 eur lte

Strangely enough I've settled with Wheatley too! but it spends most of its time at 162 when not in deep sleep (a bit like me!). This really needs posting in the Carbon thread so I would post a few more things here to help or comment on stuff to get to 10 posts and then ask in there. I can't think what could be causing that behaviour, if it was me it would be bye bye 4.4.3 and hello 4.4.4

Does the actual minimum change rather than it simply running continually at 1400+ and if so which governor does it change to if any!
I read somewhere in the Carbon thread someone was having similar problems so they flashed the kernel twice, one directly after the other; seems something wasn't getting written correctly the first time but was the second, and the problem went away. Worth a go...

I found this : Q: CPU/GPU frequency doesn't stick?
A: If your frequency settings don’t stick, it's because on certain Qualcomm or JB and higher devices, there are certain system services (thermald/mpdecision/project butter) or kernel feature that rewrite frequency settings based on current thermal status and/or touch input. Certain custom kernels for your device should include work around for these issues.
Is this a fix?

It could help. Trickster is good. However, this suggests that there is something else causing or forcing the frequency setting to be changed. The question is what? and I've no idea:crying:
Haha I found the problem it was either this battery saver app or I changed to scheduler to anything besides row

Thats good. It was probably the battery saver because they usually do the opposite!
