Which is better????Voodoo latest stable or Hardcores k10i...lets compare here...

Guys many people are fond of Supercurios voodoo and Hardcores Kernels...lets discuss and make it easy for people to choose from the best....

one man's poison is another man's medicine..

wellll i have tested the latest hardcore's k10i wid ext4all lagfix and its very good...no lag...and i m very fond of supercurios voodoo too..i had tested his test version and it ws fast too but i think it just lacked in the battery usage..i think so...bt i have not tested his latest stable version yet....lets c wat others have to say...

So me, Voodoo Final is much better than the RC. Not sure about K10i. I heard its good too.

Both are excellent Kernels. What I m personnaly doing is putting the voodoo first so that all partitions including /System get converted to Ext4 then put Hardcorer's K10i over it. this way I get the best out of both (hardcore doesn't convert /system and you have to ignore the conversion request when you first start your phone following Hardcore's kernel flash)

Wow I'm not sure about that but why not...

This does not belong here! And please, this is like comparing apples to oranges. Each one has its strong points.

Is it better now with the K10i over the stable voodoo conversion? Because i thought i'll be brave and try that too although it's very smooth even with the voodookernel..

as i said in d post...i like both the kernels... bt its just to help people to select their kernel in a better way...no objection to any of d developer...

If you got the ULK ext4 with ext2 mounts and unbounded you will get high scores in quadrant..
but currently i would say voodoo kernel is better and more safe.. /sytem is converted to ext4
IMO, I agree in saying, this topic is not something that should belong here

I've read somewhere , using idle for 9 hours , 0 % battery drain with new K10i 256Hz, if it's real, it's ****ing awesome... i got 5% battery drain on 7 hours on Wifi ON just try today on my C.M. 6.1 and i'm happy the same

Sounds really nice!
But didn't know that Hardcore doesn't convert /system. I think i will also try flashing voodoo first and then hardcore over voodoo...
OT: @ale0crysis: from your signature: "32 GigaByte Class 10 Sandisk"? Never heard of a 32GB Class microSD. Do you have the exact model?

I was on JPU with Voodoo but had problems with Skype calls. Voice was not clear lagging and can't hear each other even with WIFI.
On the other hand I was using JPO with Speedmod kernel, Skype was awesome, working increadibly..
But I am not sure whether it was kernel or ROM release affecting..

[CF-Root-S5830 3.7] CF-Root adaptation for Froyo

-------- 29/08/2011 --------
UPDATE:
update.zip (19.61 MB)
update.zip (mediafire.com link)
Changelog:
- ext4 support bugfix
- BLN support
- Only use busybox in /sbin. Now, no one can break CF-Root's busybox.
- Fix some script in /system/bin reported does not work with CF-Root (am, bmgr, ime, input, monkey, pm, and svc).
With deodexed /system/app and /system/framework, USB and WiFi tethering failed to start. Restoring back /system backup, resolve the problem
Is a wise choice to make a nandroid backup before doing filesystem conversion using ext4 Manager.
-------- 26/08/2011 --------
UPDATE:
update.zip (19.94 MB)
Have a critical bug in init.rc, do not use this for ext2/3/4 fs.
Big thanks to ilarrain and koush! Using ilarrain's patch for pm2.c, now I can use my own compiled kernel for CWM4 without recovery boot loop
Changelog:
- CWM v4.0.0.9, ext4 support
- Auto install CF-Root after update, no need to delete /system/cfroot manually
Zeam Home Screen
Firmware Version
CPU Spy Info
-------- 24/08/2011 --------
UPDATE:
update.zip (12.57 MB)
Changelog:
- Using the latest smartass, interactive, and interactiveX source from erasmux
- Fix bug with cpufreq stats, now the CPU Spy can display the CPU Time In State. Possible problems associated with SOD because CPU frequency is too low. May be Sleep Of Death starting from Sleep tO Deep
NOTE:
Remove cfroot directory in /system to force reinstall CF-Root!
-------- 23/08/2011 --------
I am planning to upgrade to official Indonesia Gingerbread (2.3.4 DXKP9), so I have to flash my device to Froyo. But before go to Samsung Service Center, I tried the implementation of CF-Root in Froyo and here's the result:
update.zip (12.46 MB)
Flash it using Galaxy Ace standard recovery.
It has been tested on Froyo DXKC1 and may not be problematic in other Froyo. Everything at your own risk!
Almost same as CF-Root for Gingerbread, except:
- No tiny RCU implementation
- Have smartass and interactive CPU governer, thanks to psyke83 from http://www.madteam.co/
- Default have 32MB zram swap, thanks to psyke83
- Android Scribble 2.0 boot animation from here, thanks to GLa'DOS
- No BLN support
- The CWM part no ready yet
To enabling smartass governer:
Code:
propset persist.tweak.gov_smartass enabled
To disabling smartass governer and back to ondemand governer:
Code:
propset persist.tweak.gov_smartass disabled

Reserved for future update?

one thing caught my interest, since when u implement smartass cpu governor? any chance of it getting to cfroot for kpn/kph? as always, good job

does it support EXT4 ?

I just jizzed to this topic. 2.2 is actually much faster and lightweight compared to 2.3 and with cfroot I might give up custom roms for 2.3 for a while...

Dual booting..wow..as always you come with new and fantastic ideas.
Without reflashing again and again we can have two ROMs.
I wish I could multiboot between different custom ROMs!

tried to changed build.prop but still no boot animation.
*wifi dont turn on .... get error when trying to enable it
OK found the problem used DKC1

Wow.. Just flashed to Froyo to get my GB update.. Much appreciated for CF-Root adaptation.. This make it Ultimate Froyo (coincidentally a nice ROM name XD) before getting my official GB upgrade..

[Kernel] 308 Kernel for ICS

Here is something I have been working on and thought I would share.
It is a 3.08 kernel based on DZOs source and modified with some governer settings the way I like them, a bit of tuning of the voltages and cpu freqs, and a lot of cherry picks from different sources.
Sources:
Mine:
https://github.com/PaulMilbank/kernel_huawei.git
Build off the master branch with the u8800_defconfig if you want to compile yourself.
Where I borrowed from:
https://github.com/Blefish/android_kernel_huawei_u8800: Quite a few cherry picks from the ICS_Chocolate source.
https://github.com/virtuous/htc7x30-3.0.git: Mostly KGSL fixes from here.
https://github.com/ezeteze/u8800-kernel: Gave me an idea about how much to undervolt by.
https://github.com/dzo/kernel_huawei: Pulled some old fixes from the .35 ICS source
https://github.com/TomGiordano/kernel_huawei: Pulled some changes from the .35 ICS Source
Mostly these have been cherry picks that I integrated into my kernel and some tuning by me.
Also thanks to fjsferreira for his guide on compiling DZO source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1577876
Everything that worked on DZOs kernel should work here and it should also fix a few annoying bugs.
Notes:
First Kernel:
The battery life is largely improved. I easily get 24 hours use and could probably get up to 2 days if I turned wifi off and turned mobile data off when I was not using it.
I have not seen the random text corruption on this kernel. I did see it a few times on the original aurora kernel.
It seems at least as smooth as the original Aurora kernel, maybe a bit smoother.
It should leak slightly less memory and handle kernel events better.
It is not magic though, you may still have the odd reboot and not everything is perfect. It should be at least as good as the original and hopefully a lot better.
Not so much distortion over back speaker.
Added SIO cpu scheduler.
07/10/2012 update kernel#22:
Swap and Zram enabled, need to test.
1.8ghz is back
368mhz minimum clock.
13/10/2012 update kernel #54
Some CAF and Huawei pro wifi code for testing.
Changed readahead (may need to wipe cache, dalvic cache for this, seems to cause some apps to force close without those wipes.)
Couple more KGSL tweaks
Couple of Bluetooth tweaks.
14/10/2012 update kernel #55
Revert most wifi changes, I am still getting wifi sticking on, will likely have another revert here too.
Reduce readahead some more, please wipe cache, dalvic cache and fix permissions when flashing after this change.
fix a line of code I forgot to add
Revert a franco change.
Boost lowmwmory killer values to hold a bit more ram free and kill appps/background processes a little earlier.
SuperStock Kernel
Test kernel for those with issues. Just latest DZO config, latest DZO source fresh from his github, no CAF or Franco changes
Undervolt from 308 Kernel
368mhz minimum, might need to set this to 245 to match DZO kernel
lowmemorykiller updated
swap and zram enabled.
Hopefully this should show where issues are occurring in my other kernel.
If you get a reboot, do the following from a terminal or over adb:
Code:
su
cat /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 > /sdcard/crash.txt
Then post the crash file (if it has anything in it) here.
Get it Here:
07/10/2012 Kernel #22: http://www.mediafire.com/?o5niwi1jb73j2jn
13/10/2012 update #54: http://www.mediafire.com/?ih5iy936irt326i
14/10/2012 update #55: http://www.mediafire.com/?u29faeh4v1l0sfw
SuperStock Kernel: http://www.mediafire.com/?67o0y9kc2956fy1
Works in Aurora and Miui, I tried it in AOKP, but it did not boot so something went wrong there, not sure what yet.
Will update here and on GitHub too as I make more changes.
Cheers
Paul

Please can u explain the changes in more detail? and where is download link?

Sorry, posted instead of hitting the preview button. Everything up now.

Is it possible to provide only the Kernel update?

Can we undervolt even more?
Actually just noticed... since u modified only the kernel, why you post the whole ROM?

firstly, thank you so much!
I just want to request a tuning in camera, cause camera on aurora 4.1a is a little bit slow (it's delay like 0.3s and blurry as hell:crying

Is this just on my kernel or the original Aurora too? have you tried tap to focus or holding the button down until the square goes green to show it is focussed? Should not be blurry if it is focussed correctly.

Anykernel updater posted.

can you try to compile JB source from code Aurora with this kernel. it might get quite stable now.

Thanks Paul your kernel + init.d tweaks = super silky smooth ui great work mate

Glad it is helping people. What init.d tweaks did you use?
Also I won't be compiling roms from source. I don't have the hardware to do it. Kernels are about my limit.

I get random touches in the right edge of the screen with this kernel. Synaptics digitizer.

Not sure about this, have not changed anything with the synaptics driver. If it worked in DZOs kernel, it should work here.

so if u want to use on aurore i only need to download the file on the first page and your kernel is already there?

Can I use this kernel on Elora ROM?

I was waiting for any kernel!!
Already testing and tearing screen problem gone, WiFi is super fast! You have done really great job!

[ROM, Kernel, Recovery][6.0/5.X/4.4.4][P7300/P7310] Jolie contributions

Hello,
I open this thread to continue the great work of @OmarEinea and kasper with his kernel. I will try to update all possible ROMs with a new kernel improvements and all what we can add to this good setup. Kernel has new cherry picks from Faux, loosethisskin, A1 and others.
New Marshmallow ROMs here
Actually, we are very happy with AOSP ROMs that decatf build for P75xx. They are not perfect and there are a few issues. Known bugs:
Mobile data not working for p5 users
OC upper that 1400 MHz cause reboots and instability.
SELinux is completely disabled in my ROMs (we don't have a working modern TWRP yet)
Maybe other bugs and issues, but in general, p5wifi ROM works fine for a daily use, gaming, etc.
Current Lollipop 5.1.1 ROMs (AOSP, decatf's build) (in beta state)
P7310 = aosp-5.1.1-p5wifi-20150513.zip
P7300 = aosp-5.1.1-p5-20150513.zip

Just a question, is this rom as buttery smooth as stock Samsung 4.0.4? In the past I've tried many different roms with JB and above but none of them reached the silkness of touchwized ics rom, so I had to revert back to ics...

This ROM is smooth. If you're into gaming and this sort of thing then I suggest you stick to stock ICS for that but for all other tasks this ROM performs well. I played a downloaded HD video and it played smoothly...no hiccups/stutters as are found in previous releases. HD video from the YouTube site also plays smoothly. I don't use the app so I wouldn't know how it works with it but I'm guessing they should play OK. The best thing to do is to try it out and see if it works for you. Take a nandroid backup before you do so reverting will be easier if you don't like this ROM.

You're welcome. I think @L3R0N is right, this ROM probably isn't the most smooth for our tab, but I played to some games, surfed the internet and seems very good to me. You know, all software is evolving very quickly, so you never will feel the same smoothness as before. But we will try to improve as much as we can.
All suggestions are welcome.

And even Stock ICS wasn't buttery smooth. By games I meant the likes of NOVA 3, Asphalt 8 and Dead Trigger 2. I played some games as well and they were OK. Even tried beach buggy blitz and it ran surprisingly well with an occasional frame skip at times. For a smoother experience I set all animations to 0.25 and I use nova launcher prime with animations set to stock and sometimes I change it to faster than light. Processor is over clocked of course with hw overlays disabled and force GPU rendering on. Along with the tweaks included in this ROM performance is pretty smooth to me.

Playing with LiquidSmooth by @deadman96385.
It boots with f2fs and my latest kernel

I was asking because I've tried every combination with JB roms and above, but none reached the smoothness of stock ics. I don't usually play games beside some casual easy game. I meant smoothness in transitions, animations and scrolling. Tried Nova and every possible setting but no way.
I'm so eager to have a rom >4.0 but stutters and lags pushed me to stay with ics.
Not a complain at all, just asking because I'd like to move on a newer os, but if it's not yet there I'd save me all the format and restore of everything (not to say that to go back to ics is not as easy as flashing a newer rom because new folder layout).
Thanks.

Now that is awesome news.One suggestion though, I think you should use the Pico Modular Gapps package instead since it has less apps that people like me won't bother to use(Google Photos, Google Experience Launcher, Hangouts etc...). These can easily be downloaded later if the user has need for them.
But hopes up for the Liquid smooth ROM. I will port Omni and see how it plays out with your kernel(non f2fs).

Ok, thanks. Tried Omnirom long time ago...
Will convert pico gapps for this release. Liquidsmooth is "smooth" I only see some force closes on performance app (I don't need it) and in other settings like recents... But it's a great ROM. Will flash gapps now...

Oh...then I'm not going to waste time on it then. Noticed that AAccount said he won't be able to keep updated as much anymore. So I'm not going to waste time on a ROM that may not be updated further.

Ok. First post is updated with the new Liquidsmooth ROM. Seems promising...
I also have updated all URLs in first post with a new folder tree in my server. It's more organized now

That's great!! Will wait for a 3g version so I can test. Great to see this ole girl is still getting some ROM love. The previous f2fs gapps worked with both ext4 and f2fs ROMs. Tried, tested and proven to work.

True, never had problems with stock ICS. All other roms I've tried pale in comparison to the smoothness and performance of the stock. That's why this is worth trying out since feedback is good.

@jolinnard Are the roms based on nightlies or stable release?

Nameless comes from homemade versions (thread and link).
Liquidsmooth is the first alpha release for P75xx (check the first post).

I followed the instructions for installing the liquid smooth rom. Rom first - boot - then gapps. First impressions seem very good. I couldnt get superuser to work. I installed supersu zip and app and that appears to be working OK. I havent had any FC's yet. I have gone through the liquidsmooth performance settings OK. Just installed all my apps so will run for a while and see how it goes.

The link for twrp with f2fs support for the p5 doesn't work anymore. Clicking it results in this message:
The requested URL /android/galaxy-tab/twrp2710_p5_f2fs.zip was not found on this server.
Not that I need it again because I already have it but I'm sure there are others out there who do.

Yep. SuperSU works fine for me too.

Do you know more hacks or improvements that we can try to do? I tried to port FIOPS scheduler, but it's almost impossible for me (I'm not a C expert)...

Tab was stuck in bootloop so I reverted to Stock ICS and now the nameless rom won't flash via twrp. I'm lost as to why this is since it worked well before. Attached is the recovery log I pulled after the failed installation.

Latest alpha f2fs ready flashable ZIP, for those who'd like to test it on their f2fs grouper: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zrlbyjv1twvr7ex/alpha18.zip?dl=0
All credits where they're due, i'm doing nothing more than a copy/paste and sharing it so there's more testers.
They're doing an amazing job, and it's really getting somewhere, it's running faster and smoother with every releases.
Posted here to not pollute the dev thread.

@manuelemaboul would you make a f2fs zip for alpha 19 please? ?
Thanks in advance
keep calm and have a Nexus

Here's the new one https://www.dropbox.com/s/e84trdrbz3wsypy/alpha22-1.zip?dl=0

Booting failed
Hello,
I've tried to boot last two releases, but I get only Booting failed message on my screen and nothing more.
I'm running android 5.0.2. To flash device I've used fastboot and erased cache partition after flashing but this didn't help. What I'm doing wrong?

Got it fully working and I feel like an idiot.
For other who are new here (just like me), please remember to flash boot.img not the whole zip file.
Cheers!

Hello, is this kernel compatible with tilapia (3g) version of Nexus 7? TIA

Constantly get reboots on Skype video calls on Alpha 35 (yeah, there are already newer kernel, but problem may be persistent, will try this out soon). I run rooted stock 5.0.2 ROM with no other modifications.

Yes, on my SlimLP rom I can't get pass the boot animation. With your alpha30 it boots fine. I wonder...

https://www.dropbox.com/s/vdypxv18d12fyfm/agnostic-nv-31-grouper-alpha37.1.zip?dl=0 here it is with HTCdreamon's initramfs, this one will boot.

By the way, I recommend Frank alpha 9 by sykopompos with system ext4 + journaling disabled, /data /cache f2fs with this kernel. Fastest grouper ever and it stays fast, syko patched the framework's mem leaks and it's the fastest and smoothest combo out there after having tested all the ROM and kernel combo. Best 3D bench score either, even compared with another that have GPU and CPU OC.

Sounds interesting, specially the patching of the mem leaks...Where can I find it? Also can I flash it on a rom that is ALL-F2FS? Thanks again!

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95887005526788148 just convert /system back to ext4 and you'll be good to go.
Here's the flashable ZIP to disable ext4 journaling on /system, it makes it as fast as F2FS https://www.dropbox.com/s/e55upiij1q4rxtp/JournalingDisabler.zip?dl=0

Btw, can I use your recently uploaded kernel along with this?
