I can confirm that I can mount and read NTFS flash drive when using CF-Root Kernel.

When I use Ninphetamine 2.1.3 I get an error message (using Gscript lite):

stderr: insmod: init_module 'sdcard/modules/fuse.ko' failed (Exec format error)

If fuse.ko was added to the kernel in order to make NTSF drives work then it either does not work or it requires a special method to mount the drive.

Some further help in this matter is highly appreciated.

Cheers,

Battery life seems to be good with this kernel. Is there any chance of adding cpu temperature monitoring to this kernel? Does the s2 has appropriate hardware for that?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
If you install the SetCPU app, you would be able to the see the temp of your CPU:cool:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bala_gamer:
It displays only the battery temperature and not the cpu temperature, as of now i havent seen any kernel supporting cpu temperature.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kalpik:
There is no CPU temp sensor on the SGS2 AFAIK..

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bala_gamer:
Im thinking of the same, if there is one then there would have been some good kernels with cpu temp feature by now
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] WarriorZ:
okay.. so what is "deep sleep" anyway?

I have tried this kernel and it's really working good.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hyperbolic:
the best kernel around.

Before flashing to Ninphetamine I bought Tegrak and I had CF-root kernel by Chainfire 4.1, after flashing to CF-root kernel by Chainfire the Home button wasn't so responsive, the Back touch key and sometimes the whole screen.

I was undervolting and limiting cpu usage at the range of 200-800mhz, but according to SetCPU it was running at 1000 and 1200, even when the phone was sleeping I had major reboots that made me think that SetCPU and Tegrak aren't working good together.

After removing SetCPU, Tegrak was now working with no reboots but my uptime was still the same (2 days more or less) and I was getting the same battery usage.

Of course the main reason is that CF-root kernel is build from the original Samsung firmware, and just adds root, busybox, and ClockWorkMod (CWM4) recovery.

The flaw is in the Samsung kernel that

only Ninpo has fixed

in the ninphetamine kernel that means it doesn't underclock properly, means the phone is sleeping in higher voltage from the limit you have put.

I asked for a refund and Tegrak was kind enough to give me one.

Then I flashed to Ninphetamine and installed SetCPU.

The first thing I noticed that the screen is

much more responsive

and the back touch key.

Tested my undervolts using StabilityTest v2.11 and managed to find my

solid volts:

200mhz-825mv

500mhz-850mv

800mhz-950mv

1000mhz-1075mv

1200mhz-1175mv

After that I added

profiles

to SetCPU:

Charging: 200-500 ~ ondemand [Priority:54]

Screen Off: 200-500 ~ conservative [Priority:52]

Battery <10%: 200-800 ~ conservative [Priority:50]

And on the

main

I set it to 200-800 ondemand, and guess what, the CPU scaled to the ONLY frequencies I gave him which are 200-800 and

never glitched to 1000/1200

like Tegrak

My results after testing it:

as you can see, almost 4 days :)

Thank you Ninph/Hacre, your kernel is absolutely amazing!

You are even funny and making the whole thread be in a very unique and amusing way, rather than being serious and boring.

I recommend to everyone to read the FAQ and everything Ninpho wrote, because after reading it, no need to ask ANY questions. :)

P.S:

I am on stock rom 2.3.3 after removing Samsung bloatware.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Deep sleep is a state where the cpu isn't working it's just waiting for an input to wake up.

The advantage of this is that the cpu uses less power when you aren't using the phone.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] terranim:
Ninpo,

I've just posted about a kernel modification that allows developers to access custom USB hardware via the SGS2 USB OTG capabilities.

I was hoping that you would include this modification in your kernel since it has no impact on performance?

Thanks,

If you're referring to the Back Light Notification (BLN) mod, that was done some time ago. You'll need the BLN app from the market to make it work though. You'll find more information here.

Maybe a timely reminder before Hacre comes back?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rbalu72:
Speedmod doesnt support BLN. The mod he is referring is about the screen brightness level for low light... probably a feature that can further enhance battery life besides all goodies this kernel offers :D:D

You must've gotten the perfect Samsung Galaxy S II. No way I could get that usage on my phone. Only 17% display?!

Amazing kennel superb battery life with 2.1.3.!

If you could also fix the bug that the sound when someone calls you doesn't get transmitted through bluetooth, that would be perfect

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lpsi2000:
LOL, the phone was barely used and also the CPU was limited to only max at 800Mhz. If I understood this correctly, we could all do this. But I personally like my phone running 1.4 -1.6 GHz and I do use my phone. So no dice for me on this one.

exactly...:D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hEEGy:
Why do you need 1.4/1.6 GHz ? Are you watching many 1080p videos while doing many other things at the same time ? :0
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AndreiLux:
It doesn't even affect videos as the hardware decoder handles that, and it's separate from the CPU.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mynamesteve:
Some People just feel the need, the need for speed ;)

i like to keep it 800 tops but each to there own.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lpsi2000:
I don't need it and I just want it. Samsung gave us 1.2ghz and if I can get more out of it then I will (just because). You don't need a fast car to get around, but if you can afford one then you will get one for fun. When the next beast comes around, I will be inline waiting for it (just because). They are plenty of android phones out there with slower CPU. If I wanted a phone with 800mhz then I would have gotten one.

Exactly;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pspilot:
Well spoken :). Especially since the CPU is anyway most of the time far below 1400/1600. But if needed there's an extra boost that finishes things faster, which BTW saves battery too.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mbutandola:
Did that. Didn't work. It seems that when you flash 2.1.3 directly comming from another kernel you may get screen freeze. So I flashed 2.0.2 first and it worked!

Cheers.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tids2k:
hello hacre,

i hope you are doing well. has the support for extended battery been implemented yet ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hyperbolic:
Already charged the phone so all data is gone,

but:

The screen was on for about 2.5-3 hours, I use the lowest brightness and as you can see I talk a lot, and mainly e-mails.

2.5-3 hours of display is something ppl get for using their phone for 10 hours or so (on hard use).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] m444266:
Believable. I was able to get 11 hours on my benchmark with wifi ON, screen ON, always awake with a plain black background. compared to a plain white background less than 4 hours.

I like juicedefender managing my cpu speed of 1.4ghz (1.6ghz is not stable enough for me)

Im using a 'max' idle speed of 500mhz and a min of 200mhz.

Seems to all run nice for me.

Setting the max idle speed to 200mhz gives a laggy start up after an idle/deep sleep state. (just for a few seconds, but id rather see no lag than a few seconds of it after unlock)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
Ehh JD for CPU speeds, that would be setcpu or other cpu speed app (which could be compatible), juicedefender is more likely to kill apps at certain time.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chrisjcks:
JD also manages my cpu speeds, so im leaving setcpu un-installed.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
Hmmmm never really felt i needed the advanced mode, but guess should've tried it, didn't even know it could handle cpu speeds.

Well never to old to learn.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kawa636r:
The 650mA charging limit was removed in this kernel? (it's the one in first page) ?????

Great, but it's true???
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] s2d4:
by the look of the pic, you are using juice defender to overclock without modification of voltages :confused:

Whether you like it or not, this is totally against overclocking methodologies and is probably the underlying reason why your setup is unstable at 1.6 ghz. You are essentially trying to run 1.6ghz at 1275mV......... :eek:

it was even suggested to use setcpu by the kernel developer himself...

cant believe someone even thanked you for pointing them to JD for OCing.... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chrisjcks:
Sorry but you are wrong.

Even without changing any settings in setcpu, It uses:

1300 stock

1350 1.4ghz

1450 1.6ghz

1.6ghz is not stable at 1450 when using setcpu (not JD)

I own setcpu, and my cpu/temp/battery life are great with JD controlling my cpu.

1.4ghz is the most stable on my phone, regardless of JD or setcpu use.

Even if JD is not adjusting voltages, i think 1.4ghz at stock voltage is great.

And seriously, overclocking methods? - every phone is different so how about you tweak yours how you want, and ill do mine my way.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] netchip:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Major_Sarcasm:
LOL. So, your CPU has no input whatsoever to displaying a video? Hardware decoding only reduces the load on the CPU when decoding video streams, it doesn't eliminate it. Your phone has lots of other tasks going on in the background (and they do, you know, even when supposedly 'idle'); overclocking the processor can greatly enhance the user experience when watching high resolution video.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MPKO:
