My phone shut off on me, power button wouldn't do anything, didn't wanna turn back on, reverted to blackberry days and did a bat pull and turned on again. Very weird, miui 1.1.18 kernel v 2.3

Edit: lulzactive gov 200-1200 with 25 mV uv in each step

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] roymustafa:
whatever i do with stock KK5 it stuck on Galaxy S II. i tried v2.3 through Odin and recovery, but nothing happens...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Do you have root?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] roymustafa:
Of course i have...First i flashed CF_root...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] anil190185:
Can anyone help me please? Would really appreciate that. My post always gets lost :(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Meant, "still" have root?

Anyway, OP has UL modified kernel for those with bootloops, same name, and download from first page of this thread.

Maybe will help you.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Ensure mobile network settings "data roaming" its still checked and your APN is still selected in APN settings.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
In terms of battery life should I use this kernel or the SpeedMod kernel?

My ROM is CriskeloROM v31.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Give them both a try a make up your own mind. Other users habits may be totally different to yours, so their opinion would most likely be irrelevant.

Having said that, this kenel for me (DarkKnight/Siyah) with smartassv2 governor 100 -> 1200mHz or 1000mHz works great for battery. ;)

I just flashed KK5 2.3.6 on my I9100. Can i use this new siyah kernel with it?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] paul88gt:
+1 I have the same

v2.2beta6 works without a problem.

the first time your kernel does not work for me. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] melorib:
Imediately after I flash a new kernel it works fine, but soon back to same problem... :(

I think that if it was hardware related it wouldnt glow when I touch, glowing means it senses touch, but the app doesnt start, so it has to be software, maybe some cache that fils up... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] WebReaper21:
Have you tried waiting a few minutes before opening voltage control? I'm asking because I noticed that though all other modifications have been applied, max frequency will stay at 1200 if I open VC too early for the first time. If I wait a few minutes before looking, my max frequency setting of 1000 is also applied. I really don't know why this is the case, but someone mentioned earlier that the phone forces 1200 MHz for booting, so maybe this could be the reason.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BananaMilkShake:
Yes u can.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] b2rdetor:
2.3 is amazing.

ill tested energy consumption of deep sleep when cpu works on 200mhz and 500mhz on same voltage (850mV) and i was wrong 500mhz consumes much more power. 200mhz - 2% in 8+hrs and 500mhz 2% into 3h.

why i tested than - because before 2.3 i can feel a lags or some minimal freezes, jerks movements even on ondemand (the best after performance governor). but 500-1200 even on conservative were very smooth.

but now i dont need any test ))) 200-1200 conservative and 2.3 give best smoothness!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] concertiste:
One of my friend success flash v2.3 but other two friends got same problem that I got... We are all used Samsung KI3 Rom. I flash many times for test v2.2i, v2.2p and v2.3. We have no problem with v2.2i&p, but this problem of "can't find mount" came back always when we flash v2.3. Thank every friend here who reply me. I hope somebody can help us slove it! Thank!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cmd512:
Agreed, I've been a die hard user of lulzactive, but the conservative governor in v2.3 is butter smooth. No more of the random jerkiness of touch sensitivity from lulzactive... bravo, gokhan!

@gokhan...

still i am getting bootloops....even after updating the kernel......

is there any way to stop it.......???

:(:(:(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Evollution:
With so many governators i cant decide what should i use ... Why you dont do just one and good
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] xcarecrow:
Because diferent users have diferent needs, and maybe depending on the task, game, watching videos, etc, u can use a diferent governor that performs or saves battery better than just have only one. the explanation of governors is in the forum, it's your choice and your needs.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] UpInTheAir:
You could try;

1) Extract / unzip kernel v2.3 .zip zimage to sdcard (int or ext).

2) Re-flash a working kernel, reboot system.

3) Use CWM Manager or Hellcat kTool to flash the kernel zimage directly from sdcard (int or ext)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gnan10:
will it stops random reboots bro......??????

:):):)

---------- Post added at 05:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:52 PM ----------

no dude its not working still i have bootloops.........:(:(:(:(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Your previous post said you were getting "bootloops" or were you really getting "random reboots". There is a big difference

A little confused now :eek:

Bootloops - You can only try it as an alternative method to CWM Recovery

Random Reboots - Too much UV/OC voltages, lowest frequency set too low, try different gov, etc

Last version v2.3 works perfect with KK5 full deodexed rom from this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19862842&postcount=2791

I have also installed JKay Deluxe 13.2 from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1154278

After flashing to the latest 2.3 (w/ the newest CWM), I noticed that when I tried to flash a ZIP file via CWM, I would get an error like below:

-- Installing: /emmc/SamsungIME_update.zip

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

E:Error in /emmc/SamsungIME_update.zip

Installation aborted.

It seems that the error is caused by the newer CWM. Thanks to Wanam that pointed this out.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gnan10:
no its fault of updater-script....due to abnormal script its got aborted

kk5 or new mali drivers - there only 2 difference - i didnt change somethink else.

now i see smooth transitions between colors
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ryusaeba:
Sorry I am a n00b, but the updater-script is from the kernel, ROM, or CWM?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Molitro:
Is anyone having serious wakelock problems with maps?

It's probably the fault of the update to version 6, but I'd like to know if it's just me.

it will be in this sequence

its not the problem of new CWM at all.......
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ryusaeba:
Thank you for your reply. However the SamsungIME_Update.zip file that I tried to flash worked fine for all my previous ROMs and kernels. I experienced the same problem flashing 3 other .zip files as well with the Siyah 2.3 kernel and new CWM. Flashing to Speedmod kernel with older CWM solved my problem. But it is a pain to flash back to Speedmod kernel to install ZIP files and then flash back to Siyah 2.3 afterwards. Do you know of a solution to resolve this? Do I need to modify the updater-script for each ZIP file? Thanks again for your help.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Dennys_Santos:
After installing version 2.3 of the application is no longer in ProdyDroid AutoConnect when a WiFi connection is active.

I have installed and uninstall the ProxyDroid again, but apparently the script to monitor the WIFI is not running.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

NOTE: In version 2.2p this all working fine ...

thanks.

Yep,I agree with chadouming.Open a new thread.It's important enough to deserve a thread. ;)

Awesome work by the way pal.I'm trying to find an OTG cable at a reasonable price here(Not throwing away 30€ for it).If I can't find one,ebay is my friend.Then I'll be glad to test everything you give me! :D

Yep,it's my noob-specific language.And not even for every kind of noob.Rest assured,I won't be that foul-mouthed to anyone that doesn't deserve it. ;)

Huh,true.Out of XDA's 4ish million users,more than half could be flaming-worth.It's really sad at the rate it's happening.

We were all noobs,yes.But I was about 15 years old when I joined XDA and even then my lack of knowledge and will to learn advanced stuff could not match the most subtle cases of noobness we see today.Being a noob isn't bad by itself as I've said before.What's bad is that instead of being like "I did this/that wrong and after searching I could find this.I don't know if it'll work but I'll try",most of the noobs today are like "It doesn't work for me the way I want it and I want it now!Give it to me because I'm a prick and think I deserve it!".If we don't get rid of these kinds of people,XDA won't be what it was again unfortunately.

Someone should take action.We are not a dictatorship here,we accept new users.But we aren't an asylum either,we can't accept every idiot that happens to buy a phone that's smarter than they are.I'm not a mod,but I'm not new here either.Wish I could do something about it.Some people,many of which I've met in the SGS2 forums,deserve XDA at its best.Most people though don't even deserve it at its worse.

Hi,

I'm having problems with data connection disappearing after a while on 2.3. On DarkyRom, VF UK, with KI3 modem, tired cache wipes and re-flasing modem and kernel..... any one have any tips or know if this is a known bug?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Gowind:
Hey guys, is it just me or... Right from v 2.2 I'm facing this issue. My capacitive buttons are always lit when the phone reboot. Is it possible to fix it and make it the way it was, I mean lighting on only when the screen is on after finishing the boot up. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Should not think its kernel related (unless WiFi issue). Try out other modems.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] r5ingh:
I have, I was on KI4 modem before, (now reverted to KI3) and been on siyah since 2.1! Issue only started today.... Data connection comes back when the device is rebooted.. wi-fi works perfectly...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] khassanove:
U can flash zip files through darky tool ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] WebReaper21:
It's sad, but so true...

I'm a noob too, but after a little reading up on the threads I figured out most of the questions asked by others because they were answered just a few pages before. No wonder this drives many of the more experienced users mad.

I hope you all don't let this you discourage from answering the real questions.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chadouming:
Completely agree and it's sad. I was a noob and i'm still a noob compared to many dev here. There's difference between being a noob and being a fu**ing idiot. Hacre said something that is exactly what i think. It look like : "I will never flame someone with a lack of knowledge, but i won't spare someone with a lack of common sense ". I have looked this thread from the start and i think that newer user are more and more like : It don't work because of dev. I have flashed every single public version of this kernel and even a few specific bug correction and higher frequency closed and i wan't to say that I never had bootloop. I used Samsung rom ( No more using it because A2DP sound suck ), CM7 and MIUI. Never had a single issue while changing from one to another. I have the same phone that everyone who have an SGS II international. I read the instruction. That's it. Not hard, maybe a bit longer, but nothing beside having my phone bricked. Today, most of the noob are like, WTF, IT DIDNT WORK, WHAT I DO NOW ? and when you tell them that it's written on first post, or it was said what to do on THE LAST PAGE, they reply : [Sarcastic]Thanks, this was really helpful ![/Sarcastic] which i can translate to : STFU, you tell me what to do and stop making me try to learn to search. I'm getting tired of the noobs who want to stay noobs and the asshole not even able to say thanks when you help them.

Edit :

This is exactly the way to go. I never saw an unanswered question on internet. Google is your friend and can find anything.

Using ondemand(100 to 1400 mhz) with sio scheduler, apart from that the uv sttings are on my sig,
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Lownita:
May I ask why you do overclocking (not smooth with 1200 Mhz?) and no UV for clocks below 500 Mhz? Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bala_gamer:
OVerclcoking to 1.4 ghz with the same voltage as that of stock 1.2 ghz will not have any impact on battery life(apart from a very few mins of battery life), so its worth bumping to 1.4 ghz for free. In idle state the phone will be either at deepsleep,100 or 200, its safe not to touch those values as there is a chance for SOD if Uv is messed up. So left it with stock.

one more thing. is your data always connected.

Planning to make a kk5 version of checkrom ??
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gnan10:
it might be due to change in settings of key light.....to get back it to normal

just go to settings->display->touch key light duriation

then select the option '1.5 seconds'(normal)....

may be it has been selected as 'always on' option just check it.....:):):)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Gowind:
ya my bad. that's what i meant. earlier the buttons used to light just before the boot animation finish right. at that point there would be a slight vibration, the keys light up and you get the home screen. but after flashing 2.2 the keys light up the moment boot animations begin.

I'm concerned about that because that key light is kind of reassurance for me. you see after a flash when you wait and wait for a long time looking at the boot animation and the moment the keys light up, boy its a totally awesome feeling :D

gokhanmoral, i know you don't believe in battery calibration, but .. what is that? :confused:

the drop happened due reboot, and since it starts to go up.:eek:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Molitro:
It's fairly normal. The readings sometimes misfire and show a totally off percentage. But as the minutes pass, it slowly goes back to the real state of the battery.

That's why you can encounter the graph going up.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] thawizard:
do you mean it is happening only on siyah kernel?

because i haven't had this on cf-root/ninpo kernels. it happened today for the first time.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tolis626:
No,it has nothing to do with anything you can configure afaik.I once asked Gokhanmoral if he could make the capacitive buttons light up before boot so that we will know and not guess where to press when in recovery.I don't know if he did it because I asked or for some other reason,but I'm glad he did.

Yep,I've seen it man.And boy,that was fast! :D

So look,these days,after finishing exams tomorrow,I'll be on a field trip.As soon as I get back(Probably Friday next week) I'll be trying it,as I haven't got enough time right now.

Also,from what I've seen,I'll have to compile the kernel myself,so I have to get to that part first.I haven't repaired my Ubuntu installation yet(Bored) and have always done crappy stuff in my attempts to compile kernels.So that's an unsolved issue for now. :p

But THANK YOU!I thought no one gave a **** about exfat,but there you came! :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I will be away for some time. I'm in istanbul now and i will be away from my sources for some time. I dont think it is possible to compile a kernel on my phone, at least for now :)

I'll be back.

Meanwhile, if u have problems with v2.3 (i dont), v2.2 is in my blog.

You can't compile kernels on it?Ok,I had enough.I'm selling this piece of crap.It doesn't even make my coffee good anymore! :mad: :p

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mr_villagomez:
Killed my WIFI

I have a SC-02C NTT GS2 and I've been running your 2.2i NTT kernel with MIUI 1.11.25 and its running really well. After I saw you updated to 2.3 I downloaded the NTT version CWM and flashed it. Soon after my wifi stopped working and when I tried to turn the radio on it kept saying error and refusing to turn on... I then tried the .Tar version and flashed through odin but same story. I then flashed 2.2i again and it started working... I did cache wipes, dalvik cache wipes and even flashing a fresh copy of miui then 2.3 NTT over it but all methods had the same result "DEAD Wifi". All other previous NTT versions fix the wifi with no need for any wipes of any kind.

This is just FYI... 2.2i NTT runs great but if you happen to fix the wifi issue on 2.3 I'll jump right on it. Thanks for the awesome kernels!!!
