[CDMA KERNEL ROM]Gumbo Kernel beta project + RAM hack

[athlet1c]

Kernel Rom From Gbhill Makes your current Rom Fly. Also be sure to download the SetCpu from Coolbho3000 which you can get from here http://www.pokedev.com/setcpu/

Just install as update file on your current rom from the boot loader screen. for advanced users you already know to ADB it so no need to go further


People asked why I don't have dev threads here, so here's one. I'm friendly, just try to read the dev chatter and tweak stuff.

Quick and dirty version of a kernel 100% working with setcpu for throttling. No overclock yet.

Also has MemKiller configured fairly aggressively.

Built using MCR 2.x inits (for dirty hack of ram managment changes, plan to build universal init to work for all popular ROMs).
Kernel built with debugging and HTC performance lock stripped for full wake ramp up support. i.e. works 100% with setcpu.
No compcache, as I think there may be issues with our kernel and compcache as is, and I think the performance lock may have been causing it. Only fight one bug at a time.



If you need a great how to thread to get started building a kernel there's one here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=622916
This kernel is in update.zip format, flash like any ROM.
Work's 100% with Gumbo ROM and MCR 2.x provided MoDaCo custom kernel was not flashed.
Expected to work with stock.
Would love a FRESH ROM tester to try, so any bugs and source can get to flipz for his kernel project, as well as my init in this project.

Usual applies. Be sure to backup. Wipe may be needed, YMMV. Myself and several other testers have went through all dev versions with no wipe, as well as a final wipe and reflash and saw no difference.

Credit to coolbho3000 here on xda for advice with HTC throttling. He's also the dev of SetCPU and his app is indispensable with this kernel IMO. Best buck I've spent at the Market for the donate version.

Let's roll our own community kernel.

Whats the difference between this and the kernel esoteric1311 released in his rom thread?

This is actually a 1.5 Kernel like the sprints kernel they cant seem to get right. Well he tweaked it and built it for speed and memory boost. It also has a battery save option as well. I will tell you this thing flies. Its based of some great work from Devs which he mentioned.The Rom esoteric1311 posted is from this same Dev. You install this on top of his rom or any other rom I.E Fresh , Modaco , ETC

If u havw installed the othere can we unstal over it with this .? Or should we wipe and start over ?

Hell yeah, this is justice in a zip file.


I'm kinda scared to set SetCPU to run upon boot though. Anyone try it?

[KBZL]

Any specific setting that should be preferred?

[athlet1c]

This should give you an idea on what to do , but also this post explains it as well .This is what GBhil stated

Set your sliders to 480 max 245 min
select performance and refresh, cpu speed should be 480
select powersave or msm7k and refresh, cpu speed should be 245 (ewww) lol
Select ondemand and refresh, cpu should be 480. It will ramp down to 245 when sleeping, and now it will ramp back to 480 when you wake it up.

I've been using ondemand @528 max 245 min, without tweaking the ondemand parameters in setcpu. It's nice to finally have a working way to scale the cpu to your own prefs.

Hope This helps
