[Kernel][DS]NeOcOre-Hybrid™ [release 5][Discontinued]

[Kernel][DS]NeOcOre-Hybrid™ [release 5][Discontinued] - Sony Xperia M

HELLO WORLD,
thirdzcee here and once again i bring new kernel for our beloved device, i have come to a decision to stick with a modified 4.2.2 stock c2005 firmware crossflashed to my c1905 and in the process rebuilt my kernel from scratch to work with the c2005 firmware, so here it is guys, my initial release,,,, hope you guys like it....

Advanced Kernel for our Xperia M
Whats inside???
Compiled from 15.2.A.1.12 stock kernel source Now on 15.2.A.2.5 Kernel source
XZ compressed
cwm 4.0.4.5 4.0.4.6
Compiled with linaro 4.7.4 toolchain with O2 O3 optimizations
CPU overclocked to 1.4ghz 1.7ghz for more performance
CPU underclocked down to 162 mhz for more power saving during standby
GPU overclocked to 450mhz 487mhz plus 2D gpu tweaks to increase the mediocre performance of 2D graphics in our phone
GPU underclocked to 128 mhz for more battery savings when on non gprahics intensive situations/apps
intellidemand badass governor as default cpu governor
ROW sioplus as default io scheduler
dynamic fsync, a great partner to row iosched
gentle fair sleepers disabled for more responsiveness
asynchronous io latency increased
entropy random tweaks partnered with frandom module for blazing fast randomness generation
zram,optimized for android too, we just cant have enough ram.. LOL
ARCH Power & CPU Power, lets make use of the optimized arm architecture for handling multithreading rather than generic architecture handling

how to features???
zram
Method 1, easy method
use trickster mod and turn on the zram switch, 10% of phone ram will automatically be allocated to zram
Method 2, hard but configurable method
USE ANY TERMINAL EMULATOR OF YOUR CHOICE
1)need to be root 1st so use this command
Code:
su
2) create zram size
initialize /dev/zram0 with 96mb disksize with this command
Code:
echo 10066329 > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
note: Disksize cannot be changed if the disk contains any
data. deactivate first before you can change its disksize.
use this formula for calculating the disksize you want
( ill use my 96mb as an example)
Code:
96mb= 96×1024×1024)
3) activate:
Code:
mkswap /dev/block/zram0
swapon /dev/block/zram0
4) stats: To check if you have swap enabled
Code:
free
and it should return something like this
Code:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 506188 419736 86452 0 49404 121960
-/+ buffers/cache: 248372 257816
Swap: 1534200 100348 1433852
*its from my pc not my phone but it should look similar
5) deactivate:
Code:
Swapoff /dev/block/zram0

I think you should disable ARCH power. I have done lots of test and found that ARCH power reduce battery life.

Battery seems fine to me... 9hours has passed, 1hour of screen time on and only 20% was drained, I have yet to verify with a continuous use though rather than a sort of checking phone from time to time method

Why you don't use base 15.2.A.2.5?
Is it save to use that firmware?
Thanks

Cause its the firmware my phone is on... Its probably safe and ill be updating the sources anyway...

if you checked my github youll see i already have a branch for 15.2.A.2.5, ill be merging them maybe tonight if im not tired or tommorow :fingers-crossed: , release 2 had reboot and sod bug due to wrong gpu tables,

Great to see development kernel on M dual is up to date...
Yeah release 4 is more stable n no random reboots, very nice n go on...

Damn! Now that's some serious scores! Btw, which kernel are you talking about? Your kernel (ironbuang) or Neocore?

It's probably NeOcOre

Point to note
In S Version , Hugemem Libs must be flashed for 720p record to work
In both versions , ticking bigmem will break 720p recording.
Tar version must be flashed with Odin/Heimdall , zip with CWM/TWRP.
I expect to get more features in the differences soon, including ISO CDROM functionality , normal OC ( upto 1400MHz ) and other features.
This build will be updated when stratosk makes new version , or when I have lots of new additions.
All bug report of this kernel must be posted in this thread , please do not disturb stratosk regarding this kernel.

ARM Coresight is a tool used to debug and trace issues in ARM based processors. It unnecessarily adds a load to the CPU , so I disabled it.
For XZ Compression you can read it here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xz

I once asked Stratos why he doesn't use xz, and he told me that he uses a better compression method. Anyways, good job and have fun with further development of your kernel!

Thanks for the info . I will try both and decide then.
I am going to upload build which will change the name of the kernel to something else, as stratosk doesnt want the name Semaphore in the kernel.

a god thing would be autopatching 720p libs like derteufel
this would be a great advantage compared with original semaphore

A god? You can always pray for that to happen!

Since they are 2 versions , s and non-s, this can easily be rectified by adding the Hugemem libs in the zip.
Will do it soon.

Re: [JB 4.2][KERNEL] Unofficial Semaphore+ (name to be changed soon)
Oh... So this is what you pm'ed me about. I see. So, is there gonna be a nolvm version?
Awesomenesss!!!

Swap would be good im missing that feature since devil kernel
i hope you add that feature

Since it is based on Semaphore sources , it can be controlled completely using Semaphore manager.

"Assalam Alaikum"
Hello all, This is my first thread in Development Section and I am still learning in modding Kernel , big thanks to my teacher @educk :highfive:
so I am beginner in this world, but I tried to make a custom kernel with features I need, and I decided to share it with you If anyone want it..
- Why I am usnig 3.0 not 3.4 kernel for CM10.1?
- In my opinion 3.0 kernel is more stable at the moment
This kernel just for JB 4.2.2
Kernel Features

400MB RAM kernel
Hi guys..
Finally the great Developer Erik released 3.4 Kernel
So I ported it to Ancora and tested with 400MB RAM without any added feature
( Camera shot works fine [5 MPixel] )
( Video recording & H/W dont work ) >> ( you can use Mx player to use S/W decoder to playback Videos )
( youtube app dont work ) ..
If you want to use it ( the best for gamers ) :
0- Please make nandroid backup for safety..
1- Download it from Here
2- install it via CWM
3- Wipe cache and dalvik-cache
4- fix permissions and reboot.

good job bro

Thanks man, will try it.
what i know 4.2.2 will be more powerful with 3.4.x kernel because it's build natively to run on 3.4.x kernel
but maybe, there is will be more battery saver on 3.0.x, but it have to be confirmed for a few day.

Hey Madridii.
Good job :good: !

For better battery life Madridii should reenable Gentle Fair Sleepers because disabling them will cause more battery drain. By disabling Gentle Fair Sleepers the phone cannot enter deepsleep mode entirely, which results in a better UI responsiveness, but also in a higher battery drain.

Thank you for helping :good:
I will try that and give feedback
I am going to make UV version and see if it will help in battery life or not
and what do you think about Smartass2 ? because I am thinking to add it to the kernel

You are welcome Undervolting will help a lot for battery life, so no doubt about this. You can add Smartass2 as well. Many people like it but my favorite is still Lulzactive. However, many will prefer Smartass2 over Lulzactive, so you can add this as well.

Update ...
V 1.6 :
+ More RAM 360 MB
+ SmartAss2 Gov. Added
+ Increased cpu frequency on boot
- revert {Disabled Gentle Fair Sleepers}

I am testing now the new version of my kernel.. till now battery is good and performance good with smartass2.

Don't know why, but my phone only charges til 96%. Then, it assumes it is fully charged. That didn't happen when I was with another kernel Any way to resolve this situation? Or to revert to original kernel?
Thanks!

This is feature in my kernel with BLX read the First post and read this:
Code:
This feature has been developed by Ezekeel and allow to set a customized battery charging limit (100% is the default stock value, if you want, you can set a lower value).
As Ezekeel said, it is commonly accepted that both very low and very high charge states accelerate the degradation of the battery capacity (that is why you should store Li-Ion batteries at around 40% charge).
If you set a charging limit equal to 100, this feature will be disabled.
How to activate this feature and set a customized charging limit:
1) By downloading and using [URL="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.cyann.nstools"]NsTools[/URL] by setting the customized battery life extender charging limit
2) By using a customized init.d script (the custom value will be always restored after a reboot, if you don't format the system partition)
- Download the script named [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download/b5ayj6xc89dvp2i/15blx"]15blx[/URL]
- If the file has been saved with .txt extension (stock browser), rename it by removing the .txt extension
- Edit the file by setting your preferred charging limit (the downloaded script will set the charging limit to 95%)
- Copy the new file inside /etc/init.d
- Give the rwxr-xr-x permissions to the file (read, write, execution for owner, read and execution for group users, read and execution for others)
- Reboot
3) By directly editing the file /sys/class/misc/batterylifeextender/charging_limit (the value you set will be lost after a reboot/shutdown)
4) By using Terminal Emulator (note that set value will be lost after a reboot/shutdown)
- Open Terminal Emulator
- Run these commands (changing the charging limit = 95 with the preferred one)
Code:
[CODE]su
echo 95 > /sys/class/misc/batterylifeextender/charging_limit
[/CODE]
here in my kernel I set it 96% .. If you want to revert it to 100 try that method (credit to Christopher) if you cant
I will make one for you without that feature
I hope you like my kernel

Thanks Madridii! I would appreciate if you make another kernel without that feature. Then I can compare with this and see what fits best to my phone

Update to V 1.8 see the changelog in the first post ..

Since arco had switching to kernel 3.0.Y on latest CM10.1 alpha. I decide to open a new thread for my custom 3.0.Y kernel.
Hope not confuse all
Some warning to all users before flashing away!
Please do not install this kernel on any Android version lower than 4.2.Y
By flashing this kernel, you are accepting any outcome that might happen after using this kernel

Thanks alot !:good:
Just flashed it! My rom is Ehndroix III 4.2.2 I'll give some feedback if there sould be any problem.
I do not game, but i use my phone in various ways (everyday average use), i'll report on performance also!
Nice work mate! Keep it up! Great fan of your kernels and work.:good:

Hi there!
As i promised i'll report on performance i do now:
What's good:
1. Battery drain was only 1% during the night not in airplane mode. Awesome!
Question: increased audio loudness is missing here? I have the feeling that my phone is not as loud as with the other kernel of yours (3.4...).
Problem:
1. it just occured today, i was putting the phone in deep sleep by power button and next in an hour or so it will not answer to home button.
By (long) pressing power button the device woke up (i thought it turned of itself, but there was no pin unlock request, it just started as if it was returning from deep sleep).
Edit:
As i had Battery Doctor installed, and since then this problem occured for the first time, so i think it is related to the app not kernel.

So its possible to use PowerVR DDK 2198402 now ... Great work, we are par with the GNex's driver now.
Have you tried DDK 1.9 RC1 ?

A captivate version would be great. Thanks

BTW, have you looked at the IO Scheduler updates kasper_h pushed out ? I tried cherry picking , but it had over 10 conflicts, didnt have time to fix those manually.

Many thanks.

thanks a lot for the new kernel, is a long time since I wanted a custom kernel, tomorrow I try because I'm away from home, thanks to your work.
edit: I extracted the zip I flashed the kernel and boot file with the app rashr, it worked and I installed the kernel without Odin, now I have to choose which to use governor and then I will give a judgment, then install it without fear because it works.

Please add a flashable if it's possible

I've tried to making a flashable, using Rox's updater script.
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "s3ve3g" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "s3ve3g" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "s3ve3gds" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "s3ve3gds" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "s3ve3gjv" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "s3ve3gjv" || abort("This package is for device: s3ve3g,s3ve3gds,s3ve3gjv; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + "."););
show_progress(0.050000, 5);
ui_print("Flashing kernel...");
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot");
show_progress(0.200000, 10);
ui_print("Done. Reboot.");
When I reboot the kernel is installed but /data doesn't mount at boot. Weird.

Maybe @sev3n1985 can do it fur us. Is it possible?

Very Good My Friend
I would overclock the GPU and the CPU, because the stock is the best on Performance.

About overclock CPU I suggest to not overlock it because, after some test, the phone become really, really hot only @ 1.5 Ghz, 57°C
I can enable a downlclock @ 249Mhz, overclock gpu, undervolt a little to save battery and try new hotplug drivers. When everything is stable i will release a test version and as always you will try it as a beta tester

Only 4.4.2 on any rom, based on stock

After you've installed this kernel you can use an app like Trickster Mod and change governors and schedulers
