conservative is stock on my ROM, and that is set through scripts. see witch one on page 1. and how to set it.

or run the remove power.zip in recovery, then you can use whatever software you like to change.governor and.speed and voltage etc...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] syahrulzaman:
smaberg....love the android keyboard....
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] platy222:
if i use the remove power.zip and will use my own settings, then will there be an increase of battery drain? i mean all your power saving scripts added to this rom will be gone, am i right?

my settings speaking of voltages are the same as yours except for 1600MhZ there i use 1350mV

and last but not least, at the moment i use your stock rom but whenever i go to setcpu and look at the set governor it is on "ondemand" so i have to set it to conservative manually, that's what i am talking about. so the question is, why does setcpu don't show me your settings delivered with this rom?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hausmanis:
Awesome, thanks !
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smaberg:
if you remove the scripts, and use the same settings, except the 1600 then it should be the same.

really don't know why its ondemand, but if you flashed the service pack then it should be ondemand. as siyah fixed the ondemand and with (another tweak i made) the new sp it shouldn't drain more battery than conservative anymore. :D

Installed SP1 and did dalvik wipe but getting force closes on dsp manager so installed v2 of kernel and still getting fc's ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zipolly:
Also installed Swype but it keeps reverting to Android keyboard randomly all on its own accord ...... Any suggestions .
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smaberg:
if i where U i would flash the rom agian without wipe or anything then directly flash SP1, and also flash siyah newest kernel, then wipe cache and dalvik cache, reboot and see
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hausmanis:
wow that android keyboard was damn nice!

nice. with a tweaked 12 apm addon vant wait :)

also. IF it. isnt timra consuming, a no overscroll zip. would be. nice

Hello,

Problem with downloading SP1 (looks corrupted) could you upload it somewhere else ? (eg Megaupload ?).

Thanks you ! :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kartalgurhan:
First of all, i get fc's in contacts after installing sp1. What am i doing wrong?

Second, what is walpik cache and how do i install it before i clear it, i couldn't find dalvik apk in the market? I talked to my service provider and they dunno who walpik is? A friend of mine says i need to replace the back cover to solve this?

Finally, my battery drains so fast, I get 1% drain every 12 hours with very heavy usage, what am I doing wrong? I always keep my device plugged so If I unplug it from the power source will it help?

Btw, I changed the governor to performance at 1600 mhz and after 14 hours Screen on the device feels hotter, you need to do smthng about this.

:D:D:D:D

(sorry couldn't help it :D )

Thanx for the sp btw

C'mon, I think you need to read the post again...if you don't get it by then, read it again....
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] superfastmonkey:
Everything is running perfectly.

The only issue is when running a quadrant test, it is freezing on the one with the moon circling a planet, both before and after changing governor to ondemand. Had to do a battery pull.

Yes, I gave wiped declivity and cache.

Anyone else with this? Probably means nothing in real world use.

Try to rise gpu max voltage to 1000 instead of 950,,my setting is min 825 max 1000,all gpu test passed! Try nenamark2 in market,you will know what I meant!

I'll tried to get in the menu to enable/disable fast domancy, but unfortunately nothing happens by the command *#9900#.

Am I doing something wrong or is there another way to get in the menu.

I am on the newest rom+sp1.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] superfastmonkey:
what are you using/doing to up the gpu voltage?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kickmys:
Use root explorer, look into the gpu voltage script file,system/etc/init.d, check the guide at the first page.

I use Contapps as my dialler and the codes don't work when using that. But if I use the default dialler - it works fine.

Any help?

+1 Is it possible to have bounce effect back ? Looks like you made it in KI3. :-)

Sent from my mobile phone
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fru.olie:
hmm...it's in my default dialler I tried and nothing happens.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smaberg:
that ROM i made the bounce effect yes, but from now i wont, there will be many mods for that that others done.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] superfastmonkey:
Thanks for that, I tried 825 - 1000- wouldn't start that bit of the quadrant test. Tried leaving it at 875 -1000 and it still freezes, it lets me just edit the app now, even after changing back to 950 max.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kickmys:
Then, you should try to adjust CPU voltage, same method :) rise bit by bit to test the stability. Every CPU is different to the others.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] superfastmonkey:
All I can see in there are the steppings- the 3 top steps are higher than the 'normal' in 96undervolt... Would making the 3 lower steps higher make a difference in this case? I would think the CPU would be caning it in that part of the test ...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] superfastmonkey:
I cracked it! CPU settings weren't it, I tried a heap of settings there.

I went back to the gpu and set to 950 min 1000	max, then went down in each. Mine seems to like 900 min 975 max, if I drop either, quadrant chokes.

Thanks heaps for your help, it was slightly tedious, but fun and educational at the same time.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cr0wnest:
Does this KI8 ROM have the old bootloader included? Will the USB Jig work? I remember smaberg posting something about this sometime ago but i wanna confirm.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] PINki92:
My phone again starts lagging when I watch YT videos... Changing governor doesn't help at all. I have sp1 installed.

I'm waiting for Siyah 2.0 final rellease and I hope it will fix the problem... :-(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] c4lamity:
Smaberg love your work, man. This ROM is getting more and more awesome by every release! Hope you'll keep up the good work.

What are people finding the battery to be like on this rom please? and what kernal are you using please?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cr0wnest:
Flashed over KI8 ROM with SP1 and the vibrate icon is back. :O Other than that it seems fine, will test it out over the next few days. I hope its as good as everyone says!

Thanks! Good to know. :)

hi i installed the scrollable apm using darky rom tool but after reeboot i cant find it or cant understand how to get it to show ??
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Café King:
Sorry if this has been asked and answered...

But is it not possible to reset the binary counter and remove yellow triangle with this rom? :(

/CK
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kidau:
I think I might have found a small bug in both the ki8 version and its sp1

everytime i clear memory (RAM) in task manager, my input method resets to samsung keyboard..... is this intended? (altho i don't see this happening in any other ki8 rom) happens to anyone else? and anything to do to fix it (and to remove the vibrate icon)?

anyway, aside from that, this sp1 rom is awesome! :D

ur the best, smaberg
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jangomango:
Can I ask where the latest service pack is.. I have been up and down the first page for the last 20 minutes !?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cr0wnest:
Its in Post 3 under the downloads section for the KI8 ROM. Look carefully again. Remember to uninstall Google+ 2.0 from the existing KI8 ROM first prior to flashing it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jangomango:
Your awesome thanks..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cr0wnest:
No worries mate ;)

In the mean time, i hope that vibrate icon gets a fix. I find it annoying having my status bar cluttered with the volume off, vibrate icon and alarm icon all at once. And thats excluding incoming notifications!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] platy222:
hmm i don't have that and i haven't modified anything on the rom! don't know why...

Should I recalibrate?

Sorry to be a dumbass ... how do I apply the scripts.. I am familiar with root explorer and terminal emulator?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] vil-2:
Ok thanks. I flashed gps fix for France but Maps is still very long to lock my position even with good reception. Any thoughts ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hausmanis:
There is a good written guide, on the first page
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mustaka:
You just copy the scripts to init.d

If you are asking how to execute them manually, you don't need. They are automatically executed after every boot. Just reboot your phone. otherwise there are some tools for that, but I just don't recommend.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nsumner:
This isn't unique to this ROM. There are basically two solutions.

The first is to flash back a standard Samsung Kernel (the one from KI8 I would suggest), and then using CWM flash back again Siyah (or any Kernel you like). I spent hours and couldn't get this working as the moment I put back the standard kernel I lost CWM. But some have had no problem, so you could certainly try this. I'm not sure if the Darky Rom II tool would work with the standard kernel installed but you could also try that which would make it trivial.

The second option is to buy a "jig" for the Samsung Galaxy S or S2. They are pretty cheap on ebay and what they do is reset your custom count, and convince the phone you are using a genuine Samsung Kernel, and put you in DL mode. Drop dead simple to use, I picked up 2 of them for $4 on ebay including shipping.

Hope this helps a little.

I sometimes have deep-sleep problems after having a call and I remember that it may be related with call recording feature. Dialer causes wake-locks. call recording feature was removed from cognition rom because of that.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Café King:
I already have a usb jig and all it does with ki8 is going into download mode without resetting anything...

Thanks for your tips...

/CK
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hausmanis:
Yeah i just noticed something about the wakelocks to, must be the call recorder, would be nice with a patch to remove it
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] syahrulzaman:
its in the first page...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kiattivikrai:
Flash the KI8 and my jig still can reset and remove the yellow triagle, remember you need to remove sim card , sd-card and battery before insert the jig and put only the battery back to reset it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] marcadam:
Also, if you've got the new boot loader it won't reset anything.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hausmanis:
Wtf now i miss frontpage items, sorry about that :P
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] syahrulzaman:
no prob mate.. :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cr0wnest:
Wow that IS such a pain! But i guess we should be thankful at least its working again. :(

Anyway battery life on KI8 is amazing. By far the best ROM yet
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] platy222:
i got a problem:

after i reboot or start the phone and it comes to type in my pin code, i have maximum 5 seconds to type in my pin and to click on OK. if i need more time for it to type in the dialer-pad will disappear and could only be shown again after a restart of the phone and then again i have 5 seconds to type it in, this is nerve wracking :-(

anybody an idea where this problem comes from or how i can solve it?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gjoe77:
guys,

after i install the missing apps, the maps is still missing from my phone. i tried to do a manual installation by downloading the apk file but still failed. any idea?

A little warning for my Touch X-Power brothers...

Ive struggled to get good batterylife and Touch X is byfar the best rom for me but still i wasnt super satisfied with my batterylife...

I used Andida 2000mah battery witch is better than the original Samsung battery right ? well its more mah anyhow and still people in this thread got bettery batterylife than me so i was like WTF AM I DOING WRONG, finaly yesterday my brain finaly wokeup and realised it actually could be the battery even tho it is infact more mah and should be better.

Popped in my old samsung battery and holycow it was infact the ****TY Andida battery that EFFed upp my batterylife. So a big warning dont buy **** from Andida its totaly bullcrap.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] syahrulzaman:
i heard the same too regarding Andida battery..lot of them complaining about the battery...i'm using samsung 2000mah battery...so far no problem with the battery...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rtabucic:
Hi guys!

I wanted to continue the development of my App on this ROM but when I try to use adb logcat i am getting the following error: "Unable to open log device '/dev/log/main': No such file or directory".

I think the logging in this ROM ist by default turned off!?

HOW CAN I TURN LOGGING ON, ON THIS ROM???

THX!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] syahrulzaman:
if i'm not mistaken, in siyah kernel, the log is turn off.

there is a CWM file in the link below to enable it back.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smaberg:
will upload memory management fix later today, will make ROM even smoother and faster, changed some kernel values etc....now it's perfect....
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] syahrulzaman:
cant wait for it...thanks smaberg... :D

P/S: have you tried XXKI4?..i heard good things about that rom but not sure...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rtabucic:
The link for the CWM that enables the logger ist down:(

Could anyone explain how to enable it manually?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smaberg:
yes, already had a ROM with that, took it down since this ROM goes best with my tweaks for battery life....

thx anyway, and yeah the new script is so smoooooth....just testing it out properly before releasing it to public.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smaberg:
go to siyah kernel thread and pm G. he will answer as soon as he can.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] eeebbr:
Question:

I'm using the KG5 rom+t27\jeffery 2.2.0 kernel and getting outstanding results battery wise. 7 hours and still on 100%\13 hours with 96% with medium performance(when being used) and 2-3 days with moderate use is a regular thing for me.All the newer kernels that i tried(ABYSS+SIYAH+RAGE+HELLCAT) never were better than the KG5+speedmod T27. old but working well.

I'm reading that i KI8 is better bettery wise, does anyone experienced better results with the KI8?

i know this came up couple of times(also searched for it) during the post while KI8 came out but im looking for some own experience with this standard.

Also a question about the scripts, does the KI8 came to be better because of the scripts(instead of the SETCPU APP) or because of the samsung source\update?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] syahrulzaman:
wahhh...can wait for the new script...hahaa...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bervin:
smaberg, you going to work on ice cream sandwich when it gets released?? If so, i'm totally stoked!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jcrompton:
Not sure if it's the scripts, KI8, or whatever but after pretty much trying them all so far this is the smoothest and best battery life ... that said I do believe the scripts play a huge role. If someone takes the time to do the leg work instead of experimenting on your own it sure makes it easy (i.e., working scripts)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ygvuhb:
hi

in ki3 the camera have not shot sound

in ki8 the camera have shot sound

will next version close the sound again
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hausmanis:
Will this change batterylife up or down ? I got abit worse battery from sp1 but smoother, i just want max battery so if it makes it worse i wanna know, rom is smooth enough :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smaberg:
shouldn't affect battery, the optimization is that the kernel react faster at screen touch and also increase in xxxxxxx.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ygvuhb:
hi will you get a galaxy nexus
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mdbde:
Thank you for this ki8 rom! I don't know how you did it, but it's magic! Battery last forever.

I have one question where I can't find the answer for in this thread: can I flash the newest 2.0 Siyah kernel? Or is it better to keep the 1.8 kernel?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smaberg:
me and siyah work together, so newest is always better, if i don't write anything else.

Hy all. Is there a way to have a phone.apk which could be adapted for lower dpi settings? I set dpi to 180 but phone app is really small and left centered. With andromeda rom there s multi dpi apks. Is it possible with your great rom?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smaberg:
just pull apk from Andromeda ROM, then copy it to my ROM system/app

don't install...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] asphaltkiller:

thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
I did wipe data/cache. I've just reflashed the ROM, and realize that the problem comes only after I restore my phone with Titanium Backup. It seems there's an issue with Titanium Backup and the ROM :(. So sad beacause I can not use any new ROM without my backup.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jcrompton:
One option is to use Go Contacts which has a dialer that adjusts itself to the DPI. It works pretty well.

The problem that I posed to on the Andromeda thread and have asked previously (happens with their themed phone.apk and with Go Contacts dialer) is that after you initially dial if you have to use the "keypad" again to dial an extension it reverts back to the phone's dialer - which is too small and displaced upward to the left.

Apparently the phone.apk needs to be "themed" even deeper than just the main dialer.

All that said try Go Contacts on this ROM if you wanna use a lower DPI

---------- Post added at 10:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 PM ----------

Not sure I understand your answer since there was a later version available when you made this ROM. In other words you apparently chose 1.8 ... not complaining because you seemed to have done an excellent job

and we are thankful
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] superfastmonkey:
Are you restoring system settings with Titanium?

If so, that is probably that, it's a recipe for disaster...or at least random glitches. Just do apps and data.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] JCDenton00:
Hi everyone, my phone is stuck on the Galaxy S2 boot screen.

It happened when I attempted to use Rom Manager to backup my rom/data?

I can't boot into Recovery mode. Only Download mode is possible.

I have no idea what to do. Please advice.

Info:

Firmware: Touch X-Power+ [XKWI8] 1.0 SP1

Kernel: Siyah 2.0
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smaberg:
i meant, if siyah makes any changes that's not incorporated yet in my ROM, ill release a service pack to fix that... like the new 2.0 has better memory management, so ill release a fix for it...

probably the fix coming tonight, the fix has nothing to do with battery life, but sensitivety for touches on screen has been increased and also some memory optimization has been done...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smaberg:
easy... find a kernel you can flash through ODIN, like Chainfire kernel, then after that you got recovery back, and you can flash whatever....
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] JCDenton00:

Thanks for your reply. Exactly, I did restore my SMS/MMS. But that's the most important thing I need when moving to a new ROM. By the way, do you know any apps for backing up phone calls and SMS/MMS to avoid this issue?

Besides, older mod ROMs (like XXKI3) work very well with my Titanium system settings restoring. Maybe this will be fixed for the latest XWKI8 ?!
