Mate, i use it on checkrom revolution 2.0,you also need twlauncher from sgs2 4g to be able to run the new mms.apk... I got it from kitchen in this rom, so i can't provide a dl link.. Go to checkrom forum and look in the OP if you can download these 2 apk from the forum, otherwise you can request dl link, I'm pretty shure someone will provide it to you. You can also visit checkrom website and log in, there are always some dev's online and they will help you :-)

Nice one Kenny. Can't wait.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] maxeli:
I'm not here to argue nor discuss what's better and what is not. We all hsve different experience with same app, imho it drains nore than stock, so i probably ain't lucky as you..

I simply asked if there is a way to disable screen turning on when i get sms... If i know how to root and flash i probably also know about different apps, so if i wanted a quick fix solution i wouldn't bother you in this forum :-)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
Theres none of us here to argue. If the app caused serious drain it would be apparent on every device..not just yours. I don't see any drain.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
Ok guys..

Here's what I did. I installed sgs touchscreen booster from the market and set the top 3 values to 0. If u want it less sensitive set these values slightly higher. Play around with it a bit.

I then installed vitallij 's touchscreen tune app and set BLEN value to 90. This gets rid of the very noticeable screen lag when charging and just compliments the other app.

My phone absolutely flies now while barely touching the keys..great for typing.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] maxeli:
Niiiiice, thx for sharing:-)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Stoffe93:
That works perfectly :D thanks :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] haroonasla:
tegrak's touch move app is better with no lag and no lock screen bug. it needs a compatible kernel to set values at boot. has no battery drain etc and doesn't keep launching like touch tune.

it needs kernel supporting advance touch drivers. thats what we need here in speedmod :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ithehappy:
Moved to this Kernel from Ninpho just few hours back, Jesus, this thing doesn't wanna drain juice :D. Nah, seriously, lovely one.

Just missing the OC'ing option though.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
Mate u didn't read a word I said did u? I don't have any of those issues with touchdcreen tune app. .just cause u have issues doesn't mean there's a problem with the app. Its obviously conflicting with same part of your set up.

So ..Tegraks app is not necessarily better. It just suits your setup better.

Quite simply the reason why I can't make the switch, even though I feel like I want to. I would really miss undervolting and underclocking.

i agree with you cute bird with the cute cool hat:cool::D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
You wouldn't....only for benchmarks. that's the whole point of this kernel...fast, stable and VERY battery efficient.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
whats the average screen on time you get with the kernel then if you do not m ind me asking
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
5-6 hours screen on time depending
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
thanks mate..i mean i get the same with my current kernel but might try this in the future just to see what its like..cheers:)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
That's what I'm saying mate.... This kernel is as good as any other kernel using uv and oc .
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] stylez:
It's nice sometimes to show mines faster than yours but speed doesn't always equate to fluid and stable with awesome battery, use my phone pretty much 24/7 as tether too and kernel rom combo is so solid..

The SGSII is a beast of a phone and with the tweaks in roms we have make it fly without OC.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
I don't get your point ??? I didn't say mine was the fastest phone around. I was simply proving that this kernel is as good as others that use oc and uv .

yes and thats without the uv/uc imagine what it could do if we had that choice on top? :eek:

anyway im not getting into that argument again. what id like to know is what screen brightness are people using for all these 6 hour screen on times since thats the deciding factor in how long it lasts and strangely theres never usually any mention of brightness settings, just 'zomg i got 6 hours screen on time'....kinda irrelevant without knowing what the brightness is set at isnt it.

Hi,

first at all, I want to thank hardcore for their excellent work and for his kernel.

I installed the latest version k2-15 and I found a problem with my wifi connection. This problem is that if I configure wlan in SGS2 from 0 it works perfectly, but if I disconnect and reconnect after a few hours, the connection is active but does not acquire IP address.

Anyone else with this problem?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Pacifiste95:
I have this problem too :confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] stylez:
I was agreeing with u :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
If I use a combo of auto + lowest I get approx 5 hrs . If I use lowest I could get 6 hrs. If I use auto I get less than 5 cause its bright where I use my phone most. Does that make sense?

I've used other kernels too and get less time than that above. The second best kernel out there in my opinion is cf-root.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tkalli:
I have tried many combinations of ROM's and kernels on the

SGSI and SGSII as a Beta Tester and a user.

IMOP, hardcore's kernels delivery superb performance without sacrificing

speed and stability, regardless of whose ROM you decide to use.

I am not sure how much faster a phone can be.

The SGSII is a big step up from the SGSI.

Guys, My battery can maintain one night without draining even one percent! Example, 33% at 12am till 7am. Deep sleep 98%. That was amazing!!!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dmt:
Hardcore, thanks for your great work! Now using your kernels for a few months and I can say the battery performance is really increased! I think somewhere between 25 to 35 percent!

I'm very happy you've created a kernel for the S2 after the succes with your S1 kernels.

So I'll buy you another beer!

Thanx!

A very happy user.

For some reason I can't flash k2-15. Is there a minimum battery percentage needed before you can flash with cwm manager?

edit: nvm, switching of power saving mode did the trick.

Don't know for definite it was kernel related, but just had a random reboot with k15, trouble is unless you're there to hear / witness a reboot is there any other way of telling how many you have?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ithehappy:
I doubt why some users are using the older versions, like K2-12 or 13! Is it because they want debugging to be enabled?

And I have a query, is the Brightness or colour tone has been changed? The screen is looking slightly yellowish than before! I am on Auto. Should I change and replace the DNIE settings with the default one?

Is there a way to make speedmod kernel work on the latest miui rom???
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] byobodybag:
No. MIUI is an AOSP Rom, this kernel won't work. As to why, go read the respective threads.;)

Why you want this ? Just flash Siyah-Kernel ! :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] emreyalcin2000:
Thanks for the excellent kernel. Using it for 1 months and it simply rocks :))

But only thing I notice, in low-light conditions, brightness is little too low so it is hard to see screen clearly.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] maxeli:
Aaaarwh dammit... :-( can you or anyone else advise me to which kernel i could use that is almost as good or just as good as speedmod??? And plz not shiya, that kernel got some serious issues lately, especially with SOD.

Byobodybag thx 4 a quick response :-)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] planetf1:
Can you expands on your settings.was sync on/off? Was data on wifi? Other background data enabled..etc
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ithehappy:
That's what I said. I am also noticing little bit of yellowish tint.

Is there a way to get back the old brightness settings?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
Speedmod has some brightness tweaks at lower lighting levels, might be very noticable for you since you now started using speedmod, only way I know of is to stop using automatic brightness and manually set your brightness

I get about 12 hours before a warning. Happy with that. Also carry an extra battery and charge every night.

If this were an iPhone I would be concerned. but being a device that is very powerful WITH the ability to swap out batteries I see no issue with not getting more than 12 hours of battery life without rationing use.

Why you don't upgrade to 2.6.35.14 ? I think there is an aos bug fix.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ithehappy:
Thanks.

Actually disabling Auto Brightness is not possible for me as I have to move out from office quite a lot under sun exposure, so disabling it will cause some serious problem for me. Anyway, I think I will get used to it with time. Still adjusting eyes from a certain brightness to a lower one is very tough IMO.

Thanks for the update.

However I didn't find slightest problem regarding TS on K2-15 ;). Obviously you know better.

Earlier on XXKI3 with XXKI3 modem, more or less the same.

- MDNIE color tuning (reduces over-saturation of color)

Are you guys not bothered by this tweak that makes the colours rather dull?

There must be some way to reverse this tweak, as I'm sure many would not like this feature, and prefer the bright, vivid nature of the SAMOLED screen.

This kernal certainly is good in many ways I believe for me, otherwise I would have switched if I could find similar already, just because of this feature alone.

I'm sure Hardcore would appreciate that the majority of users like the vivid nature of the SAMOLED screen, and there was a reversal of this tweak in the hundreds of pages somewhere.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] electriczbif:
Wow! Great job with K16! Haven't used the previous versions because the lower touch sensivity that apparently makes the device less responsive compared to the stock kernel (XWKI4). But K16 version rocks, smooth as butter!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] donalgodon:
Not at all bothered by it, and in fact, it's one of the many reasons I enjoy using this kernel.

The default color state is FAR too oversaturated. This tweak brings it down to a more appropriate level. Might not be a big deal to many people, but it will likely improve your screen's lifespan, apart from making your photos and videos more realistic in color balance.

Do you have your television set to the default standard settings as well? This will shorten the set's life for sure. I don't like the blinding red push that most sets exhibit out of the box and I don't want that on my phone either, though there's certainly no accounting for taste.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tkalli:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tkalli:
Color has never bothered me.

Like most things, it varies from person to person.

I use my phone mainly for business, which may be another reason.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] maxeli:
I can't see any difference in colour with the latest update... Or i might be becoming blind??? :-D super satisfied with this kernel :-)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] beaver2233:
The update was only changing touch screen sensitivity... Nothing to do with colours
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Radikaal:
The difference is not between the speedmod kernels, its between speedmod and other kernels.

I am one of the ones that agrees, speedmod is the best kernel for me, smoothest, best battery life, most stable BUT i really enjoy the extra color other kernels gives to pictures, looks much more beautiful to my eyes. Feels like a different phone without the colors i noticed lately when trying other kernels and having beautiful colorful backgrounds.

If someone could find a fix for it and post how to, or if hacre could upload a version without this i think many would appreciate it, i would for sure donate to have it removed.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
Tried changing display settings to Dynamic?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] warfanax:
I would love to see it removed. Why there isn't any option in the cwm like the SGS color tweak. It was optional in Hardcore's galaxy s kernels. It should be optional in galaxy s 2 too for those who want to turn off.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Radikaal:
already have it there:) and been gotten used to having it on normal kernels, but thanks!

Its funny reading some of you requesting for color enhancements just when hardcore finished giving us the screen fix.

It just never ends lol!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KeesStolk:
Oke, new to this thread, uhh pretty new to the fun of rooting, flashing android etc for that matter.

Just wanted to say, great kernel you are cooking.

First kernel i tried was the 13 and did experience some hard freezes, so went on to another one. But, it didn't felt as good as speedmod.

So, went back to speedmod 15 (now on 16) and made sure to wipe the cache and davlik.

And now 2 days further, no freezes, smooth as baby butt and so far as i can see, i great battery life.

But a question, is it recommend to wipe the cache, dalvik and battery stats upgrading from 15 to 16? I did it to be save, but just wondering what you guys are recommending.

Edit:

Iám on CheckROM RevolutionHD V2.0.0 by the way, great rom.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] carlos67:
If I'm not mistaken, doesn't the colour tweak only apply to the standard colour profile? If you change it to dynamic the colour tweaks do not apply.

Or am I completely wrong about this? I'm sure I read that somewhere (maybe in supercurio's thread on colour tuning).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] davelinders:
When you upgrade your kernel it is not needed to wipe anything.

I didn't wipe even when I go switching different kernels from different developpers.

And it's al good and no FC's.

+1 :)

Now just to try radios over next week and all be sweet mind you doesn't help not having gprs on network provider...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KeesStolk:
Txs, but the first speedmod i tried (13) i got totally freeze of the S2 for 3 times in 2 days. Someone else advised me to wipe cache and dalvik before flashing a kernel and so i did. And running speedmod again since Saturday and it didn't freeze so far or something else FC for that matter.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ithehappy:
I replaced the default MDNIE Standard color profiles over this one, just to make sure there wasn't any Yellowish patch on low brightness. Don't know if that did change anything or not!

Well a main plus point of this device is the gorgeous S-AMOLED + screen, now I also don't think that modifying anything related to that which could reduce the tone, vividness or sharpness of it is really weird, for me at least. I also don't know why there was a need for it!

People saying that they love the reduced vividness of the S-AMOLED + are pretty confusing, well some users, like me, who do a lot of reading would like a lesser brightness, but that's it, there is no connection between the vividness and brightness! In fact if the screen is dull one has to stress his or eyes more than a vivider screen. Don't know why one first place they purchased it, there were plenty S-LCD's out there, which has a lot lesser vividness/sharpness be default, no need for a Kernel for that ;)

Stating about the longevity of screen is meaningless too, unless someone wanna use this device for a decade.

We all know that this is by far the best Kernel out there, but ignoring the fact is a different thing and it won't do any good for betterment of it in future.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
The screen being AMOLED is different from the color control settings. The Galaxy S2, like the S1 and many other Samsung phones, has the MDNIE feature. This is like the color controls of your TV.

By default Samsung applies image sharpening and color saturation boost to the screen of the phone. The sharpening has a horrible effect on text (especially small text), and the color saturation boost makes the colors inaccurate.

If you use "retro", "lomo" or other Photo Effect apps that adjust color and contrast, the MDNIE color boost makes them unusable because they make the photo appear to be more colorful than it really is. With the stock kernel, you make your photo adjustments, then you upload it to Facebook or view it on a normal PC screen and realize that the color on the phone was wrong. That's why I turn it off in this kernel.

As you said, the natural color of the AMOLED+ screen is already very good. It doesn't need an additional color saturation boost by MDNIE.

Changing the color profile on the Settings menu to "Dynamic" increases the saturation again somewhat, but not as bad as the default settings.
