Guest the_corvus Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 (edited) (UPDATE: ADDED LINK TO NO AOSP ROM, STOCK ROM SUPPORTED) Hi all I have a new kernel for you. It has all the features that kernel in Corvus5 rom has plus: 1) Blue light fixed :mellow: 2) CPU overclocked to 1.5 (see picture below, we beats Xoom :o) 3) Xpad added to kernel (not more module load) 4) May have some less battery draining, but not tested. This kernel may work in all Vega Roms that are not Stock nor CM7 (only AOSP roms), but i will only support it if you use with Corvus5 rom. About overclocking, if you have setcpu installed, press menu, select device and choose that setcpu autodetect freqs. It really works. :D It may work with any other cpu overclock utility, but is not tested. Install as allways with CWM. Link (for AOSP): http://www.multiupload.com/BOCMUM8TWP Link (for STOCK): http://www.multiupload.com/EWW24XJO9E NOTE: By default this kernel OC the cpu to 1.5Ghz. I try to change to 1Ghz, but doesnt work. This can harm the cpu if is always at this speed, so install any of the oc tools (setcpu, CPUMaster, etc.) in market to change it back to 1Ghz. Corvus. PS: Thanks to Buzz and pershoot for the work they made in the kernel... Edited May 5, 2011 by the_corvus

Guest dbaseii Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 Thanks for your quick reply! Works a treat!
Guest clonmult Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 I'm considering picking up a Vega, and its work like this from Corvus that is going to be the decider. Come pay day, I will very definitely be the owner of a Vega, then back over here for all the updates. Many thanks for all the work!
Guest thwacker Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 Hmm. Looks tasty. I'll try this when I get home tonight. I got my Vega for Xmas. Since then my brothers and sisters have bought another 4. I've no doubt they'll all want this kernel on top of the Corvus5 ROM.
Guest Yogimax Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 Excellent - can't wait to get home to try it out! Does the setcpu.txt file on the root of the SD card get replaced with this, or is it needed any longer?
Guest the_corvus Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 setcpu.txt file is not needed anymore... Corvus.
Guest tony barnes Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 1) Blue light fixed :D FPMSL !!! Nice work :o Amazingly I've still not got around to putting the other ROM on mine yet... loads of time off work, but oddly busy :mellow: 50% overclock sounds interesting, I'd of thought that would worsen battery performance quite badly though?
Guest dbaseii Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 Works a treat! The only bug i have found is the battery power indicator does not update until you do a reboot.
Guest beegee1962 Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 Hi Corvus, Works great on my Stock ROM after I disabled rotation. Any chance you make the same for Stock ROMs?
Guest the_corvus Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 The only bug i have found is the battery power indicator does not update until you do a reboot. Yes, i have it too... solved using the calibration app or searching the post i explain how to solve it. Hi Corvus, Works great on my Stock ROM after I disabled rotation. Any chance you make the same for Stock ROMs? Sorry... i forgot to make this for you... i will do it this week... if i forgot again, you can reply here so everyone knows that i am a loser :mellow: Corvus.
Guest scrupples Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 just a question on overclocking, on a computer if you overclock it, it can cause cause a shorter life span on the processor because of the extra heat, is there any ill effects to the vega by overclocking it?
Guest Maxwell4321 Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 Yet another fantastic job from the Corvus :mellow: Many many thanks for all your hard work :o I just benchmarked 4440 !!!!! stunning is all I can say.

Hi went into cwm wiped battery stats battery indicator works ok now. Thanks, a great update Corvus
Guest Bobby Elliott Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 Can you tell me what native ROM this is based on? 1.08 or 1.09 or 1.10? Cheers.
Guest inberno Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 (edited) Thanks Corvus for helping our vegas have a longer life. Edited May 3, 2011 by inberno
Guest NeilLewis22 Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 Great job mate any crashes at 1.5? im guessing it should be ok seeing as other tablets are clocked at 1.5 with same cpu

Same as pc cpu... not for use full time. Only when needed. Corvus
