Changelog:

Added LZMA compression for the kernel image, makes it uber small. This should help with the few non-booters still left. Also, since it’s so small, EVERYTHING is built in, except wifi and on the EVO, wimax.
Moved the default boot speed back down to 998MHz, didn’t realize that some couldn’t run 1.113GHz, sorry about that.
Removed ALL debugging support in the kernel, this will speed it up and also makes it smaller.

Everything else is still the same, ck2, BFS357, BFQ, SLUB, CIFS, EXT4, gpu+, sd card speed up, etc…

Until I figure some things out with the AOSP kernels, I will not be releasing anymore, sorry.

Finally, for those that asked about the tweeks script I posted, it’s set for 1.113GHz max, if you want something different, edit the script and reboot. It’s the same script I had included in previous kernels, but had taken out for reasons.

Tweaks:
Since some have asked, I put together an update zip with the screen state scaling init script and I also included a sysctl.conf by Mr. X and an init script to start it.
[TWEAKS] Ziggy's tweaks (1363 downloads)

Edit: The screen state scaling scales the processor to between 245MHz and 384MHz when the screen is turned off, this is to save on battery power when you’re not using the phone. It sets the governor to ONDEMAND when the screen is off, and INTERACTIVE when the screen is on. I find this responds faster when turning the screen on. As for the sysctl.conf, I’ll have to have X explain all the tweaks in there.

  Thanks for the great kernels Ziggy! Loving it on my DInc!

For those that were interested in more info on the smartass governor, here’s and excerpt from erasmux’s flykernel.

smartass governor – is based on the concept of the interactive governor.
I have always agreed that in theory the way interactive works – by taking over the idle loop – is very attractive. I have never managed to tweak it so it would behave decently in real life. Smartass is a complete rewrite of the code plus more. I think its a success. Performance is on par with the “old” minmax and I think smartass is a bit more responsive. Battery life is hard to quantify precisely but it does spend much more time at the lower frequencies.
Smartass will also cap the max frequency when sleeping to 352Mhz (or if your min frequency is higher than 352 – why?! – it will cap it to your min frequency). Lets take for example the 528/176 kernel, it will sleep at 352/176. No need for sleep profiles any more!

Of course, the frequencies are different than what he used, since we have better processors than the Hero.

I finally think I’ve figured out git. lol

So I’ve updated my github with all the changes I made recently, each is just a branch of the mainline 2.6.32.25.

Ziggy’s GitHub

Enjoy,

Alright, applied the netarchy FPS paches. Sorry about that, not having an Evo to test on, I forgot.

Note1: These kernels ARE NOT overclocked, but are slightly undervolted.
Note2: I’ll have my github updated hopefully this weekend.  So please wait to update the XDA threads.

Even without over-clocking, you’ll be surprised at the speed.

Hopefully this one fixes the issues I’ve been having with this kernel.

Change log:

Reduced the actual kernel size, due to the limited space on the Evo, 2.5MB as opposed to 3MB on INC and Bravo.

Moved all Graphics drivers to modules
Moved EXT4 to a module

Removed the hosts file and init script for now, just trying to get this damn thing working.

Camera is working, not sure what I did to break it or fix it.  lol

Just to clarify, the Bravo Kernels are for GSM ONLY

they were developed for and tested by Mr. X.

The 1.28GHz was not real, for more information, click here.

Changelog:

Overclocking capped at 1.19GHz

Removed a config option that used more battery while the screen was one, oooops, left that in from testing.

Hopefully fixed that FC for some Sprint users, the hosts file I included blocked a few sprint IPs.

A few other tweaks here and there.

  Works great, except Wifi is broken on my Incredible.

NOTICE: I am not responsible for anything that may or may not happen to your phone, except for maybe it running faster. You break it, you fix it.

23 Oct 2010:
Kernel version 2.6.32.24
Overclocked

BFS 357 CPU Scheduler
BFQ IO Scheduler
Swap enalbed
SLUB (Unqueued Allocator)
All CPU governors, Interactive is the default
CPU Undervolt control via /proc/undervolt – built in, not a module

Fix for slow SD card access

CIFS
EXT4
TUN
A few tweaks here and there.
etc…

Also included in the update:
1. For any ROM that has busybox’s run-parts enabled, I added a screen state frequency/governor switching script, located in /system/etc/init.d. This means you do not have to use setcpu to control the frequency or governor anymore. If you prefer not using this script, delete it

The defaults for the script:

2. remount script that will be installed to /system/bin.
