To those talking about 3.1 - Have you seen GS2 kernels based on 3.0.x? Even later 2.6.x releases? Even 2.6.36 is a difficult proposition.

What makes you think 3.1 would be any different? It's going to be even more different architecturally.

Gokhan's got balls if he's backporting anything from 3.0 - however, some parts of the kernel get rearchitectured less than others, and hence are easier to backport than others.

Hell, it's even questionable whether patching within the 2.6.35 series (from .7 to .14) is helping or if it's hurting. (The infamous AOS debate - Is .7 reporting it excessively high, or is .14 reporting it way too low and hiding drain?)

I need to analyze my data tonight, but I can tell you right now with 80% certainty - in a controlled drain test, .14 makes little to no difference in real drain, while making the drain source more difficult to identify.

2.1 Beta 13 buggy touch

Hi there :)

Have had great experience with earlier releases of Siyah. Tried 2.1 Beta 13 today on Cognition S2 1.5.1 (2.3.4 KH3) and found that the touch was very laggy. Scrolling and zooming in browser was slow. And when scrolling for example Calendar, it was very laggy. Hope this will be fixed in final release :)

Also, phone got kinda hot on center back.

Have great hopes with this one though, what with the AOS bug and Update3 :)

Cheers

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
I am sure there are other improvements in .14 vs .7. It was a good move nevertheless the drain thing. Of course you are an expert so I trust you and Gokhan on these.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chadouming:
What will it bring me more to read this thread ? Did you read what i posted? Someone already linked me to this and i already read it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] droidphile:
Post clearly states that there is an upper limit for smartassv2. As compared to smartass, the limit has been raised,that's all. So smartassv2 has a screen off profile.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chadouming:
Learn to read . . .

Directly taken from erasmux post :

SmartassV2, introduce (internally) an "ideal" frequency which is the frequency we are "aiming" for, in some sense. The way I see it is that the "ideal" frequency is a hint to the governor what is a good balance between performance and battery life. Now when screen is on, I set (on the hero) the ideal frequency to 518Mhz which will ensure nice responsiveness but limit unnecessary use of higher frequencies when they are not needed. When screen is off, I set the ideal frequency to 352Mhz (0 will disable the screen state tracking all together). From my testing this will "convince" the governor to spend most of the its time during sleep at the lowest available frequencies. Note, that both during sleep and when awake the entire frequency range (as defined by the "user" - i.e. selected with SetCPU) is used by smartassV2. For example, when the CPU is loaded heavily, the highest available frequency will be used regardless if screen is on or off.

This said, just want to report that 2.1b13 is working with GalnetMiui 1.10.25 ^^
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] droidphile:
May be i was drunk. Peace out Chadouming :)

I'm on Gingermod 0.6 (2.1b13, 100-1400 ondemandx, uv) and noticed two things.

While charging, phone heats up more compared to Ninpo.

And like one user reported, there is a considerable drop in HSPA speed. Currently on KI3 modem Tried KI4, KI1, still the same.

Any idea anyone?

Edit: Is the heat because i have increased ac charge current to 1000?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Entropy512:
Yup - the question is, do the benefits outweight the possible disadvantages?

Not sure yet - once I understand better what the AOS behavior is, I'll have a better idea, as so far, it seems to be the only potential regression (and, it may be a bugfix instead of a regression.)

I have a guess which specific patch in .12 changed the behavior - testing tonight.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chadouming:
For the heating, yeah having it increased to 1 amp will make it hotter than nimpho or stock. For the speed, I don't have any trouble. I'm getting my average 4mbps down 1.5 mbps up like usually.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] droidphile:
Hmm..I don't know why.

But not getting the hspa speed on ninpo 2.1.3 on same rom. Tried reconfiguring apns, re-flashing modems, etc etc.

Apart from that, no issues. Love this...rather obsessed with this kernel from the New Kernel God :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Evollution:
I can't recharge my phone if it is off because when I plug my charger my phone time on automatically using miui rom
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chadouming:
This is not kernel related, but a "Problem" coming from all AOSP rom. (CM7, MIUI and everyother aosp )
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bclark:
Atimn fixed it on CM awhile ago though. I just charged my phone while off this morning. What Miui are you using?

Edit: meant to quote Evollution so the question is for you

@ Gokhanmoral

Can you try this on samsung roms?

When i use a launcher -----> No lag

When i use a stock rom ---> Terrible lag
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Galaxy_Fan:
same by me on cm7.

@gokhanmoral: should be a bug
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tomascunill:
Guys. Have any of you tried GALNET MIUI ROM? I just tried the one from www.miuiandroid.com and 20 min after flashing it the screen was really really hot, so I went back to CM7 just to be safe (this was before I culd even flash the siyah kernel). This never happened to me before, and man it was hot, dangerous hot.

The thing is I was really liking the interface, so I was thinking of trying GALNET MIUI. Is this different from the one form www.miuiandroid.com? Do you recommend it? How does the syah kernel work in GALNET MIUI?

Sorry for the questions, I just wan't to gather experiences about it, and more importantly, how it works with the siyah kernel, since I will flash it as soon as I flash the MIUI ROM.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Boonyard:
I would bet everything I own in the world on the fact that you did not wipe properly before installation of the miui rom you tried.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dandroid13:
Oh, really? It works here. :eek: Using latest MIUIBrasil.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tomascunill:
Every single time I flash a new ROM I do:

-full wipe factory reset

-format \system

-wipe cache

-wipe dalvik cache.

So I don't think that's the problem...

hi

Does anyone ( gokhan ? ) know if the logger is enabled in 2.1b13, and if it is,

how to disable it.

i know there is a script on first post, but does it work with 2.1, or just 2 and 1.8 ?

thanks

With siyah I do 7130 but at 1600...

So it s equal...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
try beta14..

about ics kernel: it is another kernel by angelom.

make the advertisement somewhere else. he is just a cheap coward who violates gpl, and that's enough for me not to talk about that kernel...

he is using the name to make his kernel more popular.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yoplaboum:
I'm a siyah fan !!! ;)

I know stories about angelom...

I'll test b14 ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kapa75:
Hi gokhan.

Will you add the dualboot feature soon on your kernel? (or is it for Siyah 2.2? 3.0? :D )

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I hope that this will be the last beta.

I am planning to release the kernel this weekend, with the source code of course.

I will add bus freq modification interface and try to fix bugs at the AOSP side. I have been using beta14 lately and had no problem with stock samsung rom.

after releasing 2.1, I will focus on dual-booting and a tegrak-like app to customize settings.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kapa75:
The tegrak-like app sounds great!

Thanks you
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chadouming:
Will be so nice, and just to let you know, B13 is working with GalnetMIUI 1.10.25. It was not working since 1.10.22 but they surely changed something. Trying beta 14 right now :D You are now my idol :P

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] xeq544:
Good night, by the way I got 7290 score at 1200mhz... so no issues I think :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BoneMo:
well maybe i didnt see it in thread...but what was problem with 200Mhz voltage?

...today i was using beta 13 and on 200Mhz i have 850mV and did not see any no problems...?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ~Spyne~:
Thanks for the kernel!

I had previously just been using the kernel that came with Lite'ning 6.1, but changed to this yesterday and battery drain overnight was about 0.5% per hour - it's usually 1-1.5% per hour.

AnTuTu and Quadrant scores attached. (LR6.1 + SIyah 2.1b13 + stock clocks/voltages)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BoneMo:
WOW...you are using the "old" Lite ning ROM 6.1 :eek:

it just shocked me..when i take into account that there are many much newer samsung based roms or MIUI or CM7
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chadouming:
And boom, no1 ANTUTU benchmark :D 1696Mhz CPU + 400 Mhz GPU.

Edit : Asking every benchamrk to lover to beat this :P it will make Siyah kernel on top of Antutu benchmark list :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Paradoxxx:
And Done.

First 1600Mhz :)

Please, don't kill me. k?

First run, let's see how well it could go.

EDIT : 7837 second bench...

EDIT2: Let's see New beta + GPU OC :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chadouming:
Hehe dont worry ^^
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Paradoxxx:
Hehe.

Last benchs. OC GPU @ 400Mhz

Final. First :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] _cummoo:
I mean i don't like benchmarks :p

... but this, and i mean 2.1b14 seemes to me insomuch unreal..

because Beta 14 is so ****in' nasty faaaaaaast and lagfree, yeah i mean this can't be real.... :D

Magnificent work !!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] minidou-77:
I can't set my processor at 1600Mhz or my GPU at 400Mhz my phone freeze.

Is it because of my voltage settings (stocks) : 1500mv for CPU and 1000 (even 1050) mv for CPU ?

BUT 1400Mhz works great.

And is 6369 a good score an Antutu?

I am running the last hyperdroid and the last beta of Siyah (always)

Because I see you with more than 7000 (I know AOSP rom are better but I love sammy) ^^

Gokham I love your work, you're the best !
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nerotix:
With what program do u OC ur GPU?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bLack_Q:
You can OC with Voltage Control.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kokoskokis544:
now thats what i call kernel :P

why do i see myself first..u scored higher than me :P havent oc gpu though..

Im testing the latest beta 2.1 and well i tried to solve this myself but i failed, how do i set these bus frequencys ? gladly appriciate an answere
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nerotix:
Thats for CPU OC, I wanna know to how OC GPU. Anyone has an idea?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] OisteinR:
Sorry! That's complete impossible! Try to do the maths on that usage... ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] vukandric:
Just try voltage control. :P it have gpu also. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kokoskokis544:
!!!

cheers :D

gpu oc to 400

sorry it wasnt..i will try again with 400

edit 3: i did however at the last gpu test with the warriors the test is not performing correctly..i didnt increase the voltage though (gpu)..i dont want to burn it haha
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hausmanis:
what rom are you using ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Guetta1:
I don't think it's impossible, i've got nearly similar results with Beta 13.

Can anyone confirm that 650mA charge really works with the genuine AC-charger?

I'we been monotioring the battery history screen in Battery Monitor Widget Pro, from 30% to 70%, but the mA does not reach 650mA.

Is 650mA charge only obtainable whith the phone tuned off?

Maybe the explanation is that the mA-draw from the phone itself is the difference between 650mA and what the battery monitor is logging. The loggging varies alot, but let's say the mA-draw on the phone is 150mA on charge and, Battery monitor logs 500mA = total 650mA.

Is that the answer?

How do I stop this kernel from dropping Superuser.apk in my /system/app or su in /system/xbin every time I reboot. I don't mind this happening after flashing the kernel on the first boot. I have applications on phone that will not work if root is present. if I want root, I can always reflash the kernel. I have used other kernels (Like cf-root, etc...) that provide root and they do behave in the matter I mentioned above.

This is great kernel and would love to continue to use it, please help me figure this out.
