if you extract the image from the .rar that hardcore upload it, put it on your sdcard and flash it via CWM (flash kernel option), it's not the same? That's how I do it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] oyebto:
hardcore how about yourself? which has better battery life on your phone?

More drain on K2-6 also, I'm actually back on K2-5.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Radikaal:
dint know if was ROM or kernel issue, but phone didn't go to deepsleep anything tonight, so lost like 30% in 8hours with data on when I was expecting maybe 4%drop lol. this on speedmod-6. probaly some app who refused it to go to sleep thought, but other then this I also have a feeling k2-5 was better.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] obionenairobi:
Same here.

12% in 14 hours in sleep

Before i had 1/2% per hour
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] miisterlim:
Definately got higher drain on k2-6, gonna go back to k2-5 for now
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] formidabilus:
you people should get 3 full battery cycle charges before judging this kernel.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dan@msx:
not always required if the battery is already calibrated and flashed at 100%
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] formidabilus:
I don't know if the battery calibration remains perfect after you flashed a new kernel, but it may be true.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Vahidmoby:
confirmed

in stand by (deep sleep) every 1 hr my battery goes down 1% (wifi off-data off- bluetooth and gps off) its too much

back to k2-5 and everythings perfect

will i need to wipe my phone for this or no? also, is this using the older 2.3.3 or has it been updated to 2.3.4 or 2.3.5?

cause im using 2.3.3 on my phone as a stock bell phone, and i see lots of ppl mention how upgrading is almost needed to have the phone work how it should

I am getting awesome battery life on k2- 6..

Please give some time to this kernel...

Still 60%... 1.5 hrs voice call... 1.5 hrs display.. n lots of surfing n other stuff... 16 hrs +
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] formidabilus:
you do not need to wipe the phone, you can wipe cache and dalvik cache. The latest (k2-6) is based on 2.3.5, I think. It's good to go with the latest version of android because with all new versions there are many bugs fixed and many software improvements.

Guys i have some issues with wifi.

When i start my phone then it connects, but when i gets disconnected and reconnects it does not work anymore.

It does get a ip number, but not traffic is possible then.

Any ideas ?

I tryed K2-5 and K2-6
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] byobodybag:
Anyone know?

Can you adding the gpu Control to speed mod. Samsung Default GPU is 166(2d)/266(3d), i think is too high for 2D, 100/114/133 is better for battery life & fix the Heating problem.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pjdona:

Thanks hardcore, I love your kernel but can you please write a sentence or two of explanation what does every new update supposed to do (more speed, longer battery....), for us that are not so techie. For example this last one, "Implemented ARM_ERRATA_743622, ext4 and mm patches from GT-N7000 sources"

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Peeyar:
I have tried the k2-7 but im having a lot of checkboard when scrolling the stock browser. can anyone reproduce the problem? I know its normal to see check board but after a few seconds it will disappear. the problem i experienced with k2-7 is that when scrolling the broser the checkboard doesnt seem to disappear and it takes like a min before you can scroll smoothly. so ireverted to k2-5 and all is well again.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MODKID:
Is the K2-7 on Sorce code 3 or were back to sorce code 2 ??

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] adam1741:
Is this kernel better than the siyah kernel? Battery and performance wise?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] SDeba:
On latest k2-7 battery drainage is quite high, just like it was in 6. After 3,5 h from 100% it has now about 84%. I was just listening to music about 30 minutes and reading need about 15, the rest of that time phone was sleeping. And version 7 feels in my opinion less smooth than previous ones.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MODKID:
I Agree The :confused: battery drainage is higher abit the the previouse one's..

but no one answered my question are we on sorce code 2 or 3 ??
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
k2-6 and 7 made me break my benchmarks (for who does believe to these values...) and smoothness records on checkrom revolution, really really good, the change was immediately perceptible.

IMHO: by looking at the battery usage graph, you can see the curve going down pretty steeply, even when screen is off AND phone is non active with 3g data enabled (I had only 1min of total wakelock - the main culprit being Gtalk even if freezed in titanium - so no issues here!! no "rogue" apps AFAIK, despite having FB and whatsapp active)

Things change dramatically when connected to wifi, because I can see the processes *wifi* and DHCPhandler causing many wakeloks (hundreds, even more than one thousand) with a total wakelock time ranging from a few minutes (3 to 5) to many (10 to 15, 20). Battery seems to drain more then.

still, remembering how things were at the beginning, with KE7 Rom and k1 speedmod series, things gotten WAY better: battery seems to last the double, and speed and smoothness look like they gained 25%more, so IMHO we can't complain too much...perhaps we battery freaks just need a 2000mAh battery to get through a whole busy day ;)

Thanks a lot hardcore!!

I downloaded the CWM zip from the first post. Anyone got the weird quirk whereby when you flash the kernel via CWM, it says it's flashing K2-1 instead? Was the same for the K2-7 zip from the first post.

didnt work for me. it just flash it and not rebooting. any tars i flashed stayed the same.

If it still doesn't work, uninstall, reboot, install and try zImage again.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] noncents:
i've just succeeded using that method.

extracted zImage to SD card and used CWM to flash kernel on the zImage file.

not sure why but i was unable to flash using odin.. weird.. followed the same method i used during my sgs1 days.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] LuffyPSP:
nice. thanks. i thought using zImage and direct using tar is no difference since i always use that on any kernel. turns that .tar is for those having cwm eh?

btw check in your process to make sure kies not working. i got that yesterday. no kies running anywhere to be seen but checked got 3 kies process behind using task manager. kill them and use ODIN.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tshoulihane:
Not without at a minimum unpacking and re-packing this zImage file (which might not be trivial). cwm needs to be integrated in the kernel file, it seems. Flashing this image using cwm will remove CWM recovery (I tried it)

that was the cwm manager app .. did u try booting into the cwm recovery to see if its still there !!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jonny68:
Your right it's not just Android System Recovery something ive never seen before,once ive got the CWM app so i can flash ROM's, Kernels,etc that will do for me, just out of curiosity why in this Kernel can you not boot into recovery?

a good app to compare drain between kernel is "batterysnap"

siyah kernel is capable to downclocking at 100 mhz(even 25mhz) but if i compare drain battery during the night i lose less %battery with speedmod kernel(k2-5) .i loose 1-2% with speedmod and 2-3% with siyah.
