Hello I am a new "developer" and am hoping we was a community could develop an overclocking from for the tab 3 10.1
Mostly because it will allow the device to oc for high demand tasks and under volt and clock for simple tasks like watching a video.
I am currently trying to backup the current kernel but still flshify does not work sadly which means I will have to rely on the nandroidbackup.
Please, since the development of this kernel is not guaranteed, I want to first see the interest of the community.
If any developers are reading this please share how you started on developing kernels\roms because I would like to know.

I have recently tried to get involved with the testing of some of the froyo roms out there (namely DeFrost) and i can say that with the input of many many people and the hard work of the developers progress has been swift.
my concern is the feedback is sometimes fairly subjective, with everyone using different tools to test with or in most cases nothing more than an observation; "i feel this is slower than ver2.x"
People/the community if you like, will always have their own opinions and these are no doubt important issues the developers will want to address.
However I would like to see testing become more standardised as i believe this can only lead to increased accuracy of feedback and so greater and maybe more focused development.
Firstly i would like to start a discussion on the type of tools/apps available for testing purposes, and compile a definitive list of such apps.
And secondly develop a method of testing, and feedback.
Help from the community, testers and developers would be greatly appreciated.
I will start us off.
im currently using:-
Linpack for android and Quadrant for benchmarking (nomaly run them 10 times for an average score)
JuicePlotter for battery drain
System Monitor by skwid for CPU and RAM usage
Im looking for replacements for JuicePlotter as it doesn't give enough detail
and iv just started using System Monitor but first impressions are not great.
Hello,
I have just took the plunge and bought the Samsung galaxy note 2 instead of a nexus 4. As you will see from the signature I own a galaxy nexus and love a bit of rooting. I have had a look at the rom's available over the past few days, the one that takes my fancy is JellyBam. What I am looking for is a rom with icons like my gnexus (or preferably not touch wiz ) but maintains the features Samsung have implemented i.e the multi tasking, S-pen compatibility and other handy touch wiz features without the ugly interface.
I am looking for a bit of advice as i'm not particularly familiar with the developers for the phone, obviously AOKP , CM , and Paranoid Android brings back memories. From what I have said above can anyone recommend any Rom's which would fit the bill. Batter life isn't a real issue, stability with speed and customization features hit the top of the list which JellyBam seems to offer. The most important feature is the duel screen multi-tasking which I wish to keep. Also any advice on kernel choice would be great as trinity kernel's arn't avilable.
Much appreciated for your advice and I can't wait to give a contribution to the community on this awesome phone,
Thanks J
Firstly, I understand that this Dev and his kernel are not supported/hosted by XDA for various reasons, but the kernel does feature in certain ROMs which are hosted here, so I think my questions are valid.
I am curious as to people's experiences of this kernel and its performance on the Galaxy Note II. Is it performing at a comparable level on the N7100 as what has been reported with the Galaxy S II, in terms of battery life and user experience? (With regard to the GSII, it is certainly depicted as some kind of "wonder kernel")
I'm new to Samsung devices in general (I came from an HTC Desire HD - yes, you can laugh now), so I hope that forum users can accommodate for my ignorance of the history and application of this particular kernel. Search failed me (both Google and XDA).
Also, does anyone know why Abyss necessitates its own modded CWM Recovery??? Or is this simply the choice of the Developer?
Thanks guys.
One bump before I let this thread die a natural death.
Faux123 recently posted a thread releasing his custom kernel for the N1, but for a not-so mobile/linux savvy person like myself I don't have a great deal of knowledge on kernels, or what it adds/does.
What are the advantages or even disadvantages of using a custom kernel, like Faux? Does it save battery, or does it allow for overclocking? Like, what are the capabilities of using custom kernels over stock?
I'm currently on CM11 nightlies.
Any information is appreciated, and thanks in advance!
First I would read the changelog linked in the thread. Then after reading through, you should Google what each item means if you aren't familiar with it (A lot of them are noted as to what they do).
I would not suggest flashing a custom kernel if you aren't sure about how it can help your phone, and what risks you might be facing.
Always research before flashing something new, especially a kernel. :highfive:

Yeah I wouldn't flash something unless I know what it did. On my previous phone (HTC Sensation) I had a few custom kernels flashed with the ROMs i used but other than that I have no experience with kernels.
I have read the changelog, and I can see what most of the items do, but specifically I have no idea. Reading through there are options to overclock/change voltage and increase or decrease battery life depending on profiles and governors used.
Overall I was wondering if it is worth flashing for a medium user. I'm not a developer, but i'm also not an avid mobile gamer. I mainly use internet, social apps and SMS, but don't like slowing of devices. Would the custom kernel be able to prolong battery life (or give other great advantages) while still maintaining the extremely fast response that N1 has already?

You might get some battery life improvements by changing some voltages to decrease the power used. It shouldn't impact the performance if it's a mild change.
Hi there It is possible to customize an kernel for TouchWiz that can control the clock and gpu performance to make it "the beast of the tablets" without loosing TW features like multitasking?
If we can over clock and do some small tweaks to the GPU stock kernel this tablet will become "The Behemoth Beast Tablet".
Im not dev or anything kind of, thats why im requesting this and be a guinea pig to test it for whoever have some time to spend for us SM-T900 owners.
I'll donate for your effort's though, I mean theres people who dont understand that this is work and consume lots of time but theres some like me who understand Im a father of 2 kids so I understand. ?
Hope to hear an answer, thanks in advance!
