• No HZ enabled
  

Boot Time Features:

• Used git Implem of SHA-1 for 12% Boot time improvement
  
• Added [PATCH] arm: remove "optimized" SHA1 routines by Linus Torvalds
  
• Added [PATCH] arm: remove stale export of 'sha_transform' Linus Torvalds
  
• Set Clockspeed at 1.6Ghz at Boot time to ensure all critical tasks have enough power to perform them while
  the governors/maxfreq isn't set yet. (Thanks to Imoseyon for this hack)
  

CPU Features

• Supports CPU Overclocking and Undervolting (Thanks to AndreiLux)
  
• No GPU Overclocking or Undervolting
  
• pegasusq | conservative CPU Governors pegasusq set as default
  

Filesystem Features (Currently Supported)

• ExFat (Using Proprietary Samsung Modules)
  
• Fat32
  
• Ext2/3/4
  
• CIFS (cifs.ko is in /lib/modules)
  
• Ext2Int for N7100 (Thanks to mattiadj for idea and base script that I used to get it fully working on N7100 and RedPill) (ExFAT and FAT32 only)
  

I/O Schedulers

• SIO (2012 0.2 version) (tweaked for Flash) Set as Default
  
• deadline (tweaked for Flash)
  
• zen (Thanks to bbedward)
  
• noop
  
• Tweaked values in deadline and SIO I/O scheduler to give better than average throughput while attemting to improve latency (if not more aggressive). Based on our initial (indicative, not conclusive... yet) testing, having these in line with the vm dirty, expire, writeback values + ext4 mount options to "schedule" write outs as fast as the system can handle it works quite well to balance throughput with latency expected in a mobile device. We took the big picture view and tested our tweaks instead of copy pasting random "known" good values and challenged some assumptions even we had at the start. The result is a mobile device tuned for average throughput and balanced battery life with good latency (not the lowest latency out there, but given the benefits of better I/O throughput and potential battery savings + extending the lifetime of NAND Based storage I think it was a compromise worth taking) I could have tweaked it for extremely great throughput and battery savings but that wouldn't be fun to use. I hate micro-lags myself.
  
• Our Test Data regarding I/O schedulers and Kernel Tweaks can be found HERE.
  
• The blog post that describes what we are trying to do can be found on my blog post HERE. (Thanks to s2d4)
  

Memory Features

• Custom minfree values tweaked for 2GB RAM
  
• Tweaked vm values in sysctl that's optimized for latency
  

Display Features

• Stock mdnie values for more vivid details on the current generation of AMOLED Displays
  

• Enabled "fsync disabled"
  (can be disabled by doing an echo "1" > /sys/module/sync/parameters/fsync_disabled
  in a terminal emulator or as a script for gscript or scriptmanager) (Thanks to Ezekeel)
  Using the tweaked Ext4 filesystem + scheduler and mount options leaning towards latency + vm values in the kernel
  makes the most of the speed of Flash Storage based devices. At the speed at which the data is written to and from the kernel
  to the Fast Storage devices, you would only lose up to 1 second worth of data at most IF the kernel crashes.
  I don't plan on that happening so I enabled the system to get the maximum possible performance in this area.

Un merci ne coûte rien !

[jdosson]

Je suis entrain de tester ce nouveau kernel. Je ferais un petit retour ce soir. MAis pour l'instant tout va bien.

Score Antutu: 13503

Linpack: Signle/ multi thread: 64.339/ 213.773(très aléatoire!)

EDIT: Kernel parfait comme persus mais petit plus. La batterie! Je trouve que je l'ai flingué moins rapidement (j'utilise beaucoup mon tél , j'y suis encore accro comme aux premiers jours ^^) . Ça reste une impression.

bonjour,

personne n'a testé ce kernel ?

meilleur ou pas que le perseus ?

[soldatcc]

Je trouve le kernel stock tres bien pourquoi changer ?

Envoyé depuis mon GT-N7100 avec Tapatalk

[jdosson]

Meilleur que le persus à mon avis. Ca va faire une semaine que je l'utilise: Just perfect!

[Alienex]

J'ai télécharger la version rev0.7 ultimate hier, elle est génial, je me suis couché à 23h30 (fatigue fatigue), mon GN2 avait 43% de batterie, je me reveille ce matin à 8h10 avec 42% de batterie. :lol: :lol:

[jose]

salut ici :)

petit retour sur ce kernel , avec mon utilisation j'ai remarquer que le perseus consommais un peut moins que le redpill v7 ( cela peut varié celons l'utilisateur ) sinon rien de bien flagrant entre les deux , actuellement je test le kernel ABYSS si alienex veut bien ce dévoué pour faire un topic je file le lien :)

Modifié 22 novembre 2012 par jose

[Alienex]

Oui pourquoi pas je n'arrive pas à le trouver :huh:

[jose]

salut :)

@alienex :)

voici le lien direct du post pour le kernel en question : http://www.nonsolosm...rnel-t3731.html

édit : tu trouveras même des custom sur ce forum :)

re édit : kernel complet fournie avec son propre recovery custom et les tables d'uv CPU GPU intègre dans le recovery ,enfin tu verras bien sur le topic :)

Nouvelles versions

[-iNSiGhT-]

Hello tous,

Juste une question :

Est-ce que vous aussi, quand vous installez un kernel custom (comme ce RedPill), l'animation de charge "téléphone éteint" freeze??

[olive1612]

Fonctionne aussi sur la rom stock?

Ya juste à flasher via le cwm sans wipe ni rien hein?

[jose]

Fonctionne aussi sur la rom stock?

Ya juste à flasher via le cwm sans wipe ni rien hein?

oui il fonctionne aussi sur rom stock , mais pour l'instal fais tjrs un wipe cache et wipe dalvik cache avant ça te fera pas perdre tes données.

[olive1612]

Euh j'ai essayé de flasher mais il m'a marqué: signature verification failed... une idée?

[Alienex]

Tu as pris qu'elle version ? tu tourne sur quelle rom ?

[olive1612]

J'ai essayé avec la version 0.7 et 0.9 Je suis tjrs sur stock en LJ1

[-iNSiGhT-]

Quelqu'un pour tester le freeze de l'animation de charge avec kernel custom? ;-)

Envoyé depuis mon tel... euh... ma tabl... euh.....mon Note 2...

[Alienex]

Up nouvelle version

[Alienex]

Up nouvelle version 1.30

[Smart Akasa]

Bonsoir,

Je suis nouveau sur le forum jutilise mon note 2 depuis 1 semaine et je suis passer sur la ROM oméga v11 ce midi. L'autonomie me parais très bonne avec le kernel d'origine, mais je recherche la meilleur autonomie ainsi que la meilleur fluidité possible. La redpill me parais le mieux vu les commentaires, jaimerai juste savoir quel version de la redpill prendre la 1.01, la 1.30 je ne sais pas quoi faire je suis sous Android depuis peu de temps je viens dun iPhone 5. Merci pour vos conseils excellente reference d'Android :).

Cordialement.

[Alienex]

Le problème d'autonomie n'est pas du au kernel mais au firmware d'omega mais apparemment samsung en a sortie un nouveau pour corriger ce problème affaire à suivre.

Pour ma part je suis passé d'une omega à une Wanam

Prend la dernière version 1.30

Je laisse les anciennes versions car certains aiment bien comparer entre l'une et l'autre

[Smart Akasa]

Si jai bien compris certaine personne ont des problèmes avec la oméga niveau autonomie apparemment. OK je testerai la version 1.30

Je vois tiens au courant.

[DzNNN]

Salut ,

pareil pour moi à propos d'Oméga , même problème de batterie . Je suis retourné sur une Rom Stock avec le kernel Redpill v1.30 = Que du bonheur :)

[madontime]

salut à tous!

j'ai un petit problème, quand je veux baisser les volts, sur certaines freq il refuse de bouger: 200--912 je veux mettre 892 et au moment où je sauvegarde il me transforme le tout en n'importe quoi. avec system tuner.

avec quelle appli faites vous l'undervolting?
