What are the problems with criskelosrom? I've been using it quite abit and i find it v v smooth. Only problem i noticed was with bluetooth which i can live with. Any others?

---------- Post added at 05:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:21 PM ----------

Go google it. 'USB Jig' It is able to reset binary counter and remove the pesky yellow triangle. Can get it for a couple of dollars on ebay and the like
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
Little usb thingy, you put it into your usb-slot at the Sgs2 and it resets your binary counter (show how many times you've flashed via odin) and gets you into download mode. The triangle also disappears.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] vickpayne:
With Criskelo i have mostly boot problems.

THX for the jig solution.I was hoping for a new software solution though :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] YaocH:
I think the jig is way more convenient, plus its only a couple of dollars and easily available online. Just plug it in and it will get you into recovery mode plus wipe your binary counter and the yellow triangle. Plus it will not return if you flash your kernels using CWM recovery in future.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] vickpayne:
No,im just too lazy to order the god damn thing,then wait for it :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] YaocH:
And regarding boot issues with criskelorom. I find that as long as you follow the installation instructions, it should work fine. Just do a titanium backup / nandroid backup and then wipe it completely. (factory reset together with cache partition and dalvik cache) flash a stock samsung rom using odin and then flash criskelorom in cwm recovery. I think for v27 you cannot flash it directly but have to flash v26 first as it is sort of an addon. Doing the necessary above, you can then go on to flash Siyahkernel and the rest of your stuff. It should work. At least that did it for me.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
Good thing is, if you ever manage to soft-brick your phone, you have good chances of rescuing it with a jig.

Look at it that way: Buy the jig now and wait, or buy the jig when your phone doesn't work at all and then wait for it ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dandroid13:
Not happening here, try undervolting and use SetCPU profiles.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I have uploaded v1.4 and source code diffs.

there is not much difference between v1.3 and v1.4

so, if you already have v1.3 and don't need android logger, don't bother updating.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yay1974:
Dostum eline sağlık, gurur duyuyoruz :)

What is v1.5 in change log? Where is v 1.5?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
it's being tested. v1.5's changelog is subject to change. new features may be added or some of them may be removed when it is released.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yay1974:
I have flashed 1.3 now cause it doesn't have android log. So why did you enable it again, because speedmod has disabled it too for better smoothness and efficiency?

I'm looking forward to v1.5 for more :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
according to my tests and benchmarks it doesn't have any effect on smoothness and efficiency. at least it is not noticable. I could not find a measurable advantage of disabling it. So, if I give you a kernel and don't tell you if the logger is disabled or not, there is no benchmark that I am aware of to find out the current status of the logger. therefore, I enabled it back. If anyone suggests me a way to see the advantage of disabling it I will disable it in the future releases.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yay1974:
By the way I tested v1.3 on antutu I got 5871 with 1.2 gHz it is at least as good and fast as speedmod t32 and I am testing battery life, I can tell after I calibrate it, because when it was 53% full after a reboot battery meter was 19%!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zyang0112:
on cognition roms , would like to try this :D

step is to flash TAR file through Odin ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Sir-ay:
Yes, in PDA File!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zyang0112:
anything to tick or untick ?:D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] onurboj:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Muskito87:
Hi, I've installed this kernel on Check ROM V3...

I flashed thru Odin, Dumped the Kernel via HC-kTool, flashed original kernel nad then flashed dumped zImage.

All inorder to get rid of Yellow triangle (No JIG, yet...)

and i don't have BLN support..

did I do something wrong?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I tested BLN with BLN Control - Free, from the market.

there is led notification test section in that application.

if it works my part is done, you have to ask help in your rom's thread.

if it doesn't work can you please tell me the version of the kernel you have flashed? you have to use v1.3 or later to have working BLN.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] guzzle:
Tebrik ederim deneyemedim usb kablom yanımda değil.

Kabloyu alınca ilk işim bunu denemek olacak. Tekrar tebrik ederim.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
BLN works on 1.4. Confirmed.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] JJEgan:
Tested with Cognition1.51 via CF bench about the same as Ninpho kernel .

Battery life lets see over the next few days .

jje
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I have posted v1.5 but it is still in beta phase and needs more testing.

those who get an error about liblights for BLN can try it because it installs necessary library for BLN. you will also need some applications which support BLN.

make a backup before installing it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] unun281292:
Good job, it's really a good kernel
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
BLN works in 1.5 too.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chonshon:
Thanks for your effort.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kwerdenker:
Both CM and MIUI developers statet they don't want anyone releasing kernels for their ROMs while they are still ironing out the bugs in their ROMs, so you'll have to wait for new kernels or switch to one of the samsung based ROMs ;)

(however some custom roms might have problems with the kernel if they have undervolting scipts....)

Dear Gokhan hrow can i know that firmware has undervolting script...Sorry is it is stupid question...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rinoa19:
The best new of the day...hope see your potential kernel..nice man..;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yay1974:
@gokhan

a noob question maybe but where is your script i couldn't find it in system/etc/init.d ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] saar17:
Kernel version: 1.7 rc3

ROM: Litening 6.1

Exact Settings Used: Ondemand Max 1200 MIN 200

100@850

200@850

500@875

800@975

1000@1075

1200@1150

1400@1250

1600@1400

profiles: screen off - 500 Max 200 MIN

Issues: Wiped cache and Dval before flashing and did a Cal when the phone was fully charge. Now after only 3 hours of Medium Low use the battery was totally drain and now I'm waitting for it the fully charge and see what the battery life will be.

There is also a problem with the phone staying connected to 3G and sometimes the reception of the antenna is going down dramatically.

Smartass V2 make you phone very lagy and unresponsive.

Did any of you made changes in the advence's tab?

P.S- How can I detect if there are any programs/apps that are using my CPU (and there for using juice from my battery) without me know/wanting? I suspect that my phone losing power isn't only related to which Kernel or ROM i'm using but also some programs/app that run in the background.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
What init script? The kernel does not install any...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yay1974:
hmm in one of the replies he said "your scripts work perfect bye bye to setcpu", so i thought it was installed into initd
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] raziel19:
that means the script of kwerdenker some pages back ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fish80:
Hey gokhan,

Everything fine with rc3, really amazing battery too!

Today switched to official release and without change anything (I've slightly UV, not much, no OC, UC/UV GPU) I found my phone not waking from deep sleep two times (second time raised mv of lower cpu frequencies)...

Back to rc3 and no issues... It's really the best one!!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yay1974:
i see :D :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I changed nothing between rc3 and release except for a tiny tweak in smartass governor (a threshold) and 100MHz voltage value.

that should not cause any instabilities.

I recommend you to reflash and try again. this time clear cache & dalvik.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fish80:

+1 The second scenario applied to me. My usb connection F*ed up while flashing with odin and my phone became soft bricked. Which led me to order my usb jig in hope of resetting the counter so i can send it for servicing with samsung. haha.

Got a strange bug after I installed rc3. Phone is connected to batterycharger, batt is full. Rebooted and message said "Charging paused because of too high temperature" (something like that) and my tempwidget reported 67°C.

It obviously wasn't that hot so I rebooted once more and problem was solved. Strange tho, never got that msg with any other previous versions..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rodries:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CA3iR0:
I dont think so. As you see we have almost the same values (IDS: 12, HPM: 14) and I can do heavy UV and OC without problems.

This are random values, they must have nothing to do with capacities of OC and UV, IMHO.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] vnvman:
I'm experiencing severe sod issues with the latest rc :( back to rc2 for now...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AndreiLux:
#define IDS_SS	4

#define IDS_A1	8

#define IDS_A2	12

#define IDS_B1	17

#define IDS_B2	27

#define IDS_C1	45

#define IDS_C2	55

#define IDS_D1	56

#define HPM_SS	8

#define HPM_A1	11

#define HPM_A2	14

#define HPM_B1	18

#define HPM_B2	21

#define HPM_C1	23

#define HPM_C2	25

#define HPM_D1	26​

Your ids_group and hpm_group value will fall to the category which corresponds to the value between the classes in the table above.

For example I have an ids of 17 and hpm of 16, so I fall into into category of A2 for both.

Basically I suppose those are equivalent to steppings in processors, signifying the quality of the chip.

You can find it in /arch/arm/mach-s5pv310/cpufreq.c if you want to look for yourself. It further groups down the steppings and depending on the group applies a different voltage to the chip. The higher the ids/hpm, the lower the voltage will be.

So basically: the higher the value, the better/newer your chip is and will support lower voltages than those with lower values.

after 2.1RC1 i get very laggy performance in games on every govrnor except "performance" for some reason. but in rc1 version ondemand works great overall. did anyone notice the same behaviour? using SensatioN ROM, BTW... tnx

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] droidphile:
Your CPU has a better class then !
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tristecire:
Thanks AndreiLux for those explainations.

But now, how to understand inconssistant values, like mine's :

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpu_class

ids_arm: 13 hpm_class: 25~

two pretty different CPU class, it seems. A2 and C2

Which one to believe in ?

Highest ? lowest ? or just trust experience with UV and OC

( and i feel it depends of your real usage of the phone, games or not, benches or not, that app or not )

Thanks anyway
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CA3iR0:
That's false. I have a

white

SGS2, so the chip is newer than in the black ones (the white sgs2 only started selling a few weeks ago), and as you see I have 12/14, and i still can do heavy OC and UV without crashes (look at my sig).

This values are totally random, IMHO, and have nothing to do with OC/UV capacities.

gohan, can you implement these features from speedmod (also androidmeda has)

Because screen is too much saturated..in speedmod color, sharp are perfect!
