Not at all...read the compcache infos to understand what disksize_kb really is...I agree the parameter name is confusing....(I didn't write compcache myself.. ;-)

I ment, if the compression/decompression makes the process 10% slower but the filespace 30% smaller for one special operation, it should be a gain on slow class 2, class 4 cards.

I really don't understand what you mean...

Anyway I have disabled compcache on my Hero and advise to do it on latest MCR ROMs...seems the benefits we had in the beginning are not worth anymore in the latest speedy/responsive MCRs...

To disable it just have a look in the forums or bake your ROM in kitchen with compcache disabled...

I have just baked a new ROM based on b5 and disabled Compcache at the same time. The sluggishness and lack of response from my phone when I first wake it has gone - things had got so bad, even after reboots, that I had got a new SD card to see if the problem was a slow card and was going to swap cards tonight. It is so much faster that I have to keep turning it on to see if it is still as responsive.

The real test will be tomorrow when I start taking phone calls - I have been missing calls because I have not managed to get the phone to respond before the call had gone to voicemail (I have to dial 1 in order to accept some calls, and by the time I had got the dialler keypad to appear the call would have gone).

To all, I am pretty sure things were not as bad in earlier ROMs (before 3.1/3.2b) ...

Really I don't remember having such a benefit removing compcache !

Anyone ?

Hi Teknologist, having read your post, I too, on your advice have disable CC in my latest Bake!
I must admit having run CC in all but my earliest bakes I have not noticed any particular lag at all.
I had tried removing rouge apps etc, I swear by Process Manager now, and CC was not an issue for me
I have tended to run a "BareBones" ROM since Kitchen was introduced and removing automatic notifications where not necessary
for example if I need to know what e-mails I have on GMail I go into it and press refresh.

I must say that Paul's latest MCCR 3.2 Beta 5 if by far the best, with your 1.92 Kernel and CPU Governor

I will report back after 48hrs or so use with my CC free build.


Edit: All good no noticeable lag, I have also been using the taskkiller script edit. Together the phone is so responsive.

Shame I now have a hardware problem and the phone now has to go back for a warranty repair.

Hi there,

I have been cooking my own private ROM based on the latest shipped release, and I also want to integrate the Teknologist kernel into it. You have instructions on your site on how to install it to a generic ROM, but how would I integrate it into the ROM so that I don't need to install it separately? Do I copy the entire system folder and the entire boot.img file into my working folder?

EDIT: Nevermind... Yes, I need to copy everything into my working folder

Thanks!

Hi,
I did not find what should I do when I want to try some other roms. At the moment I have MCR, but I want to test some new 2.1 rom (vanillain,ckdroid, Raidroid,...).
Should I swap to you kernel ford generic ROMs or should I stay on MCR kernel or I have to do something else.
Thanks you.

My kernel just works on 1.5 based ROMS (MCR, Generics etc.)
For all 2.1 based ROMs there is no htc hero kernel source yet, so no Teknologist kernel ! :-(

If you try 2.1 based ROMS just leave the ROM installed kernel.

I have been running the MDC ROM for a few months now, but a few days ago I finally got around to adding this kernel on. I am genuinely amazed with the difference it has made. Thanks for all the work that's gone into this, I'm sure it must have taken a chunk of time!

[demitree]

I have a stock hero rom 2.73.405.66 on my HTC Hero (Orange UK). Teknologist kernel for stock ROMs eats battery a lot faster than the stock kernel. I have tried this several time with exactly the same wifi/edge/sync/apps settings, but with Teknologist my battery is down to 50 percent in 4 to 5 hours on standby. Whilst, with the stock kernel, it takes almost 12 to 14 hours for the battery to drop to 50%.

Is this expected behavior?

Hi,

I'm using the 1.91 kernel with my HTC Hero for more than 3 months. It is super stable and very fast. Thank you for your great contribution.

I've noticed that the kernel comes with the rooted ADB shell server, while the shell inside the phone is not rooted (it requires su to get root permissions). Is there a way to change the default behavior of the ADB shell, so it will also require the explicit "su" command to get the root access?

Thanks
Alex

Do you have any intentions to play around with the new 2.6.29 kernel?

[demento]

so, now the 2.6.29 kernel sources are officially released by htc, can we expect a superb teknologist kernel?

[cyde]

yeah! a Teknologist rom! Brill.

Um. if your taking requests, any chance you can include ADQ's HTC HERO USB OTG (host and slave) code?

this will make developing apps to use 3rd party USB devices easier on HTC Hero....

refer to : http://adq.livejournal.com/105043.html

I am looking at using a TIRA (USB iRA module) to turn it into a plug-in device for a Hero (or any android really) and write the App to make the phone into a universal remote control.

Thanks in advance

Well seems my Hero is broken…and I don't have time to fix it right now. So I guess no teknologist kernel for the Hero as for now.Sorry…:-(

yep, that's bad luck. But there a guy on twitter who seems to patched the 2.1 kernel with the teknologist patches. See here: http://twitter.com/freeasabeer
He is in contact with Paul. Looks good.

Doesn't look like all patches has been applied as Droid Wall doesn't work like it did with old 1.5 Teknologist's Kernel. I've tested it with r5 MoDaCo. No kernel owner module at lest.
