It's possible for 1.2 GHz. The Update3 source code brought higher Quadrant scores. But the scores don't seem to be consistently higher at 1.4 GHz for me. I think there might be some thermal throttling kicking in.

1.2 GHz could be the better balance.

Zip file of K2.6 Please? :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] obionenairobi:
I woke up this morning and had exactly the same question.

I would like to have the combo KG3 + Speedmod K1-T8 as it seems to be fast and gives a long battery life and solved WIFI issues

Could someone add a small screenshot of the correct ODIN setting (please don't shout at me :-), I am but a noob)

Also I noticed that there is a zImage in the rar file? What to do with this?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nicregi:
Hope this helps:

1. Things to be ticked / marked (whatever you call it): Auto Reboot, F. Reset Time (ONLY THIS TWO)

2. Click PDA (of course, Odin up first, followed by USB to phone, You will see ID:COM turns yellow, the click PDA). Choose the same file you download from page one. DO NOT UNZIP.

3. Press Start. Wait for reboot and you will be just fine :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] obionenairobi:
Thanks.

and if I want to be on KG3 with this kernel I first have to do the same with KG3 ?

I am currently on KF2
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] beppez82:
Uhm for me wi-fi is working on VR 2.1 :D and speedmod kernel ofc :cool:

Oh and "Android OS bug" seems gone

At a better look seems also that the "banding yellow on the left side of the screen" are gone like the KGx Kernels, and the "darker bottom side" of my unit is less noticeable.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dawabz94:
Have been fan of your work on the wholy SGS 1

Was hoping you would come to the SGS 2 and there you are

I donated to your work and am happy I did,

Running this T8, no issue so far, and the device "feels" smoother for sure

Will be waiting future releases !

Thanks !
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] coolfire:
Seems like almost everyone on here is reporting better battery life when using speedmod... I'm on KG2 rite now and very tempted to make the change too. :)

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] reidar.ostrem:
Can you post all your specs in regards of your setup ?

I think you are the only one that can get wifi running on VR21 and this kernel. I have yet to see another confirmation that it works.. It does defenetly not work for me.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] beppez82:
I'm using vr 2.1 nothing strange btw I'm using a static ip and maybe that make the difference :)

@hc:

nevermind, I just tried this 2.6.35.11 kernel and found out it has the same dual core problem. Obviously samsung fixed this somehow in current stock kernels (KG2/KG3).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] beppez82:
What do you mean for dual core problem?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] DimICE:
I think the issue is not fixed in KG2 kernel. I have some crashes and freezes with it too..

Issue: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=17623

Workaround: Turn Off sound in such games/apss -> then it runs without any freezes
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] russell.nash:
The problem was very frequent on KE4/7 for me. On KFx it got better but was not gone, since KGx I cannot reproduce it any longer. I have no idea if it is really a sound issue. It feels like a code deadlock, since CPU is getting very hot sometimes it happens...

EDIT: I cannot confirm that this is a sound issue. Even with sound off the problem can be produced.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] reidar.ostrem:
That may be the difference :) The problem is that the connection is hanging while getting ip from the DHCP server ...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] DimICE:
With sound off in options in game (not with volume down button) problem can be reproduced??
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] russell.nash:
The only way I found to prevent the problem is using a stock kernel > KG1. If you flash CF-Root KG3 to name an example my problem is gone. CF is a pure stock kernel with several script addons.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Locster126:
Been using this kernel for two days. Battery seems similar to stock kernel but i don't like the fact that logcat and dmesg is disabled and lastly that things like android os are hidden in battery stats. I do like to know what's going on in the background on my phone.....
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] holgalee:
Thanks for the tip. I tried this method but now my recovery is 3E and I seem to have lost 2E. :confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] noncents:
Aww man.. I tried flashing to speedmod k1-t8 but was unsuccessful.

I had flashed kernel under cwm from KF1 to KG3. This part was successful.

Thereafter, opened up Odin, click speedmod under PDA with phone connected by it showed unsuccessful.. anyone know what I missed? :(

SpeedMod SGS2 K2-6

http://www.multiupload.com/NYYZE9NC2W

flash via CWM or recovery

this is the regular version
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Jonjungle:
no issues here so far
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] shawnaye:
so to use the 1.4ghz, i need to have set cpu?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
Nope. Just flash and go.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jdmcivic:
alright. i have given up on siyah's kernel. tweaked here and there but it still gives me minor improvements to my device. went back to speedmod's and did an antutu bench. was definitely impressed. thumbs up hardcore!!

anyway, would battery life be much affected if on 1.4ghz?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mariotme:
hey hardcore,

After i flashed K2-6 1.4 it wasn't showing 1400 MHz in cpuspy so i used nofrills and set my max cpu to 1.4 GHz and now its showing should i put it back on 1.2 and keep it default?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jdmcivic:
i dun think the1400mhz version is activated automatically. had to manually change the frequency via gscript before it showed up in cpu spy..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ka2uki:
maybe may fix something about 1.4GHZ..

when i use setcpu2.2.4 it show that the min clock is 200mhz the max clock is 1400mhz..but ..the defult is 200-1200mhz.you must set it to 1400mhz..so should be 200-1400mhz~
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] moro30:
Thanks for the zip :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Pacifiste95:
I think 1.2ghz is enough for normal usage, and 1.4ghz can affect the battery life
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pedrolopes665:
in page 195 you can find a tutorial to apply bootanimation in this kernel
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
Yeah you are right. By default the CPU scaling is limited to 1200 MHz. Strange.

I'll upload a new 1400 MHz version that fixes this.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pedrolopes665:
Its may be obvious, but is preventing me to update from k2-5 to 6.

This change to 1400ghz will impact the battery life, correct?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] thanksgiving60:
just flash the regular version if you are worried

SpeedMod SGS2 K2-6

http://www.multiupload.com/NYYZE9NC2W

flash via CWM or recovery

this is the regular version
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
Ah, it seems something in the ROM itself is setting the CPU frequency limit back to 1.2GHz. Similar to activating Power Saving Mode will set the limit to 800MHz.

And yes, the CPU does run at a slightly higher voltage in the 1.4 GHz version. So I guess it's kind of pointless to implement 1.4 GHz now... I'll remove that version for the time being.

If u use partion reformat.. ur device will sux.... try remove battery and use dig in case u dont can use buttons to download mode... and try... check ur downlad image maybe is corrupt

Enviado desde mi GT-I9100 usando Tapatalk
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
Why are you flashing the bootloader again? I think you just need to flash a complete firmware again. Or flash only the kernel (if you think it's the kernel thats causing your problem).

EDIT: Unless you screwed your PIT file, in which case you might need to flash a complete firmware with PIT again.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Raphy511:
Thanks for helping me!

It doesn't work with a jig, or with the combo-button

It doesn't work even if I don't check re partition, with a single part firmware..

I am scared..

I flashed the original kernel, it doesn't boot anymore and the yellow triangle is still there!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Radikaal:
Have you had re-partition checked? :confused: You shouldnt have that.

Tried flashing CF Root kernel then entering recovery and factory resetting and reinstalling ROM / or restoring backup?

Ive ran into similar problems before and fixed it..it takes alot to brick a sgs II and requires alot of bad luck.. and especially from flashing a kernel.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
Looks like you probably flashed it wrongly (you shouldn't have ticked re-partition).

Anyway, I think you need to now flash a complete firmware again, with re-partition and with the correct PIT file.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Raphy511:
Nothing works... :confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] NetStranger:
Do not retreat from yours principles! We dont need overclock!!!

I need stable and more life from one charge!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jgcastror:
Well said.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] aussois:
Everyone raves about this kernel having such amazing battery life - so I must be doing something wrong - battery drains at least 4% an hour with screen off, which is way high, I get better results with siyah. I have power x-touch with latest modem and I don't have rogue apps draining my battery - On speedmod I tried ondemand gov 200-1200 with screen off 200-500 profile.

How does everyone else get this 2-3 days on single charge (starting to think its a myth! :D )
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
Try using gsm 2g network instead of hsdpa. This for me is the biggest factor.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
well you could start by removing SetCpu and rebooting a couple times, then present us with evidence that you dont have apps draining your battery, like a better battery stats screenshot
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mercury0660:
Don't	use screen off profile, it prevents phone from going to deep sleep.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] aussois:
OK I will remove Setcpu, do a few reboots and check back after a full charge cycle.

I appreciate the quick advice/responses!!!

I can post a betterbatterystats screen if need be.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Radikaal:
No need to remove setcpu, it has no effect on battery life.

Althought profiles might, i never run with them anyway, i always had setcpu installed and as lowest ive had 0.3% drain / hour with data off and 0.5% / hour data on with LeoMar's previous ROM.

Right now its between 0.5-1% /hour depending if i have data on or off with screen off and depending on reception..althought i sync everything manually.. and i have no wakelocks (checked).

4-5% / hour either you really should change radio, your phone doesnt go to deepsleep or you HAVE a wakelock waking your phone alot. Might also be that you have data on and have the phone in a place with very bad reception, this can kill battery fast too.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
The creator of this particular kernel has advised that SetCpu not be installed, and if it was, remove and reboot a couple times, I would much rather follow the instructions of the kernel creator, especially in a case where someone may not be getting the optimal performance from said kernel......
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Radikaal:
Oh when did he do that, and what would the reason be for it? :confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
Post 1697 as stated by hardcore earlier in this thread, whether anything has changed since then, hardcore would have to say. He also gave a reason...

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Radikaal:
Changing governors yes, this i know. This has nothing to do with having setcpu installed. I answered to your post recommending to uninstall setcpu because someone was experiencing battery drain. And this do not help at all.

I only use it to see if my cpu is running at normal speed (200MHz when not touching screen so its not locked at 1200MHz) and sometimes underclock to 800MHz if i need the battery to last long when going for example on a long bus trip while using the phone alot.

But I just tried to flash speedmod K2-6 tar in CWM Manager. Nothing happened after showing the flashing dialogue box. The phone didn't reboot. Existing kernel remains unchanged. Tried twice. Then I used thanksgiving60's zip file. It works in CWM Manager.

What's wrong?:confused:

---------- Post added at 05:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:06 PM ----------

Just used CWM Manager to flash the 1.4G tar version.

It did work.

Not sure why it didn't work on the stock K2-6 tar b4....:confused:

---------- Post added at 05:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 PM ----------

I used OS Monitor to check the CPU on s2-k2-6-1400Mhz

It shows the CPU frequency rage is 200-14000. But the scaling range is 200-12000

So does it mean the system actually won't use 1.4G?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] thanksgiving60:
you have to manually OC it to 1.4 GHz

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
I'm curious to see how K2-6 compares to K2-5 on battery. The only difference is the pre-emption mode. K2-6 with preempt_voluntary is supposed to have less runtime overhead than K2-5 with preempt.
