Pikachu, I have opened the thunderbolt scripts and i've seen that are a lot of lines not echoed, my question is if its posible to remove all that lines to have a cleaner script and more understandable, and if it's posible only to keep the scripts and files that are used only by sg2. I've tried thunderbolt but i don't know if it's all correct, because i really can't see improvement in battery or performance. With thunderbolt my sg2 seems to perform worse than without in games, tests, etc. That's why i've ended using ondemandx 100-1200 and all is running perfect now.

@ pikachu

if i change my kernel to siyah do i need to revert the thundervolt script first before flashing the kernel or i can just flash over current kernel with thundervolt script?

thanks

already running latest thundervolt script with HDK kernel and want to try siyah 2.6.4 with thundervolt.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
i always leave it the way it is...only try and change the governor of your choice and scheduler if you are using Voltage Control and that is it. if you want to know regarding cpu clock and voltages on how to underclock and undervolt am more than happy to help you out

---------- Post added at 09:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 AM ----------

go to his thread. there is a script were you can revert back to normal and that will remove all the scripts you have regarding thunderbolt. Then flash siyah latest version then once that is done download the new scripts and then flash away using the guide that is on Pikachus thread.:)

@Pika

stupid question mate how do i know if the scripts are working? done all the running through script manager regarding the remount script and sqlite one...but how do i know if the script is active though
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] a1exander:
Hm why is "USB debugging connected" always in my notification bar with this kernel? Even if I don't have USB connected.

I'm on GarnetMIUI ics stable.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] blaex:
only if you have a "boosted" usb-port, some mainboard manufactures offers this feature. if u raise the value to 500ma and behind ur usb port could be overloaded :o and damaging the elctronic on your mainboard.

remember slow charging is always better for your battery lifetime ....
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KcDaRookie:
The interface for charging currents isn't active anymore, also the phone only knows two charging states, 450 and 650 mA.

You can change the values to whatever you like, the phone will still behave like this:

USB: 450mA, Misc and AC: 650.

The pocketcharger should be already recognized als Misc, not USB, so no need to play around with these values.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pikachu01:
The lines that are not echoed correctly won't affect the phone (they just error out, skipped). Don't worry about that :)

Yeah, there are some bugs that I nede to fix in the next version. Some of the values are too battery friendly (affecting performance).

There's a "How do I know if it works" section :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] iamsmallpang:
Copy the CWM zip and all the addons you need to your internal sdcard

Mount /data, /system and /sdcard in CWM (IMPORTANT!) (When mounted, it will show "unmount /system" for example. This means that an unmounted partition will show a "mount /system" for the /system partition)

let CWM set to unmount (mean it mounted ) or set to mount ( mean it unmount )

before flash CWM zip , we set to( unmount )first . right or wrong

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] TecQuality:
why not? :p
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sierrafox:
ah, that's good to know, might delete thunderbolt.sh so that my boot time doesn't take forever. thanks again. also, the S98CFS script can be deleted without ill effects?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] TecQuality:
guys i'm wondering about the lionheart governor: i know that's a tweaked conservative gov, but what i need to know is this: when i'll do the kernel's upgrade i need to flash that .zip again and again?

someone has a feedback about this?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
if you still have /system/etc/init.d/01lionheart after flashing something you don't have to flash it again.

normally, kernels do not delete anything in init.d folder.

if you flash a rom you have to flash it again.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] PedroMRP:
gokhanmoral in the thunderbolt.sh at sbin/.siyah/ there is a bug in the disable iostats section in the for loop the variable is "k" and in the if the variable is "i".
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pikachu01:
Yup. :)

Why do you want to delete though?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sierrafox:
just wanted to make sure that i could if i needed to. i don't normally play too many games, but i'm undervolted (not much) and was very aware that the CFS tweaks will reveal instabilities in certain situations, like if i suddenly decided to play lots of shadowgun etc .... btw, what does CFS mean? is it just the scheduler?

:)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pikachu01:
Yeah, CFS means Completely Fair Scheduler. It's the CPU scheduler responsible to arrange tasks to be serviced by the CPU. It makes sure that all active tasks have a chance at the CPU.

There's also the I/O scheduler, the scheduler responsible to arrange data to be written out to disk (from the RAM) and vice versa.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tolis626:
Isn't /sbin/siyah/thunderbolt.sh in the initramfs?If so,is it possible to delete?I don't think so man...If it's possible I'll do it too,but I highly doubt it. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sierrafox:
apparently, yes. lol. so it's there for keeps. was that intentional? because i remember gokhan mentioning he was no longer going to integrate TB scripts into 2.6.x

ah okay, because i was completely confused by I/O scheduler and CPU scheduler (doh). i'll just leave it where it is then ... thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
that is not the whole thunderbolt script but it is just a tiny/cropped part of it.

so, you don't need to delete it. it just remounts the partitions with some "optimized" parameters and sets some "safe" parameters which doesn't interfere with the system too much. I removed old tweaks from tweaks.sh (they were similar) and used the ones in thunderbolt scripts because they are more organized and easier to read.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sierrafox:
thanks for clearing that up! 2.6.4 is running great btw!

New Bootanimation for all the Siyah lovers can be found in my sig.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] plop974:
Thanks a lot.

I was looking inside your zip files to compare the sound/nosound versions.

The difference I noted was the absence of the PowerOn.wav file.

If I flash the new siyah bootanimation over my actual one with sound, I guess I should manually remove the existing PowerOn.wav include in my rom. Is that correct ? safe ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] veyka:
If you want to keep your roms boot up sound keep the file, otherwise remove it, theres no harm in leaving the sound if you want it basically.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KcDaRookie:
if you don't want startup sound, you have to remove it, right.

yepp, sound is not required and can be deleted.

edit: @gokhanmoral: since i flashed 2.6.4 sometimes after boot the phone says that the modem-version is unknown and it wont connect to the network, also if it recognizes the modem on every 2nd or 3rd boot I'm able to call and write and receive short messages, but am not able to receive phonecalls...

Could this be kernel related?

I reflashed the modem now and will keep an eye on this.

edit 2: after reflashing it works for now,... hope this fixed the problem, or could this maybe be related to the thunderbolt tweaks?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] almrasl:
I find the charging by defult in 2.6.4 is 900mA

It is safe or it is not?!

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AndreiLux:
Are the default lulzactive settings in 2.6.4 supposed to be optimized?

I do not understand the point of lulzactive. It is less responsive than ondemand, and it uses far more the higher frequencies and jumping way too much up on trivial tasks. I tested both on equal terms while web-browsing and ondemand use was equal between 500-1200 steps, while lulzactive was spending the disproportional majority on the 1200 step, which goes against any battery-saving logic the governor is supposed to have.

don't have virtuous_oc folder but does dual_core folder have any problem with it ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
hmm strange, I don't.. did you go directly from 1.7.7 to 1.7.8, because I did clean install of stock rom and flashed 1.7.8 straight over it?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ebliss:
I am not giving up. Are you? ;-)

how to log for you?

I reflashed it again. always freeze at "media scanner running... (USB storage)"
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
OK, first reboot on 1.7.8 with ondemandx 100-1200 no UV, didn't want to wake from sleep and then it just rebooted.

Will test some more or just go back to smartassv2.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] antt00:
I went from 1.7.7 to 1.7.8. Got that folder from 1.7.7 i guess. So is 1.7.8 still using it?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
don't know, that's why I asked :) it isn't created when flashing straight from stock/cf kernel..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] antt00:
I had that problem with 1.7.6 as well. But using it from 200 - 1200 is quite stable. Have not tried it on 1.7.8

but why suddenly my wake up screen feel laggy,using main 200 Min 1200 Max ondemandx. No profile anything....:(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tonysac:
When I use ondemand with sleep profile 100-500 I have home button lag when I open phone..when I use ondemandx without sleep profile (because if I understood correct it's included in ondemandx) I don't have any lag with home button..

Am I understood correct that ondemandx has by default sleep profile on and if yes what values does it have?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jdmcivic:
i noticed something wrong with dlev's rom today when i flashed it.

firstly it doesnt have virtuous_oc folder in system/etc and its missing the same in xbin folder. i might be wrong.

in its init.d script, 74ocdaemon, it called out for virtuous_oc in xbin folder when there isnt any to begin with.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Heimiko:
with conservative 100-100 it remains ok, if I select powersave 100-100, it won't power up anymore. again, this is with profiles in SetCPU, it switches to smartass when display turns on, powersafe when display off -> fail.

edit: I do have to wait until device goes into deep-sleep for powersafe to fail. If i power on relatively fast after suspend, it still works.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jdmcivic:
@flasher8

do u have the mentioned virtuous_oc in system etc? and the file virtous_oc in system/xbin?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
ok thanks. I'll solve it in the next version.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Heimiko:
now discovered conservative has the same problem, i guess i didn't wait long enough to test it out. my device now also locks up in sleep mode in conservative 100-100. hope this can be fixed ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I doubt that I can fix that :)

but I'll try
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Heimiko:
thanks for trying! for now, I'll simply use smartass in both profiles, screen-off -> smartass 100-500, screen-on -> smartass 500-1200
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] veyka:
Sometimes the phone will "randomly" dump the EFS, so make sure you have a backup.

There shouldnt be anything in thunderbolt! that would cause the modem todo that.

Also the kernel doesnt really have much of anything todo with the modem, its managed by the modem firmware.

Derpderpderp, phone only does 450mA or 650mA, you could set it to 200A as it would still only do 650mA.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] veyka:
Luz is known to be "wild" pikachu posted some settings to tame it a bit, to stop it jumping all-over the place, they are also in his thunderbolt! scripts as well I think.

Thank you buddy, okey, I hope reflashing solved this problem for now.

After two days i went back to Sihya 2.6.2 !

With 2.6.4 i had the following problems:

- Sometimes after reboot all applications were gone (Blank screen)

After plug to usb and replug the apps are visible again

- More Battery drain, relativly to .2

- VC doenst work from time to time

It's magic for me, i deleted all scripts in init.d, dalvik cache delete, normal

cache delet, no success.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hkc_rock:
hi gokhan,

i am having a wield situation that my screen started to appear some abnormal stripe at the left hand side after flashing to the latest 2.6.4 kernel. I supposed it was some hardware problem so i flash back to official rom and kernel to get ready to send to maintenance centre. But the situation has gone. I confirmed the situation exists under the latest kernel after repeated testing and i am not using any GPU undervolting scripts. I wonder it is caused by the changing of the new GPU driver or so.

Did anyone experience this situation too. It will be obvious when you view the square pattern background of the notificiation bar.

Thanks all and i love this kernel very much!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] veyka:
I think nandroid avoids backup up the EFS, but dont quote me on that, and as long as you have some backups you will be fine!

GT 2.5.1 still unbeaten

HI all,

first of all once again big THANKS to Gokhan: Your enthusiasm is really great! And still Siyah is the best kernel I know.

I have flashed any new kernel since a long time but in a way I'm stuck on GT 2.5.1. For me it really provides the best mix of performance and a incredible battery-life that is absolutely unbeaten by any new version.

What are you're experiences. Sometime I wonder if I do something wrong with the new kernels. And an important step of evolution passed without beeing noticed by me. Or can it really be, that 2.5.1 still has the best battery life??

Cheers
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] TecQuality:
yep, there are many tools here that allow this :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KcDaRookie:
@Januwar: Every phone is unique, so it could be that 2.5.1 is giving you the best experience.

I think 2.6.4 is great and gives a nice balance between performance and battery.

But I also think I will increase the time between flashing kernels and only reflash if there are any essential new features, like from 2.6.2 to 2.6.3 3 step gpu etc.

I think this has some potential, since now my phone has a step between 100 and 267 MHz gpu frequence, and with the right thresholds there should be a great reduction of battery usage.

Also the quick boot process was a reason for me, cause boot process really got so much faster.

So you have to decide for yourself, some people are stuck to 2.2.1 cause they have the best experience on this version.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] atomic339:

Actually, it is not completely disabled, as gokhanmoral said here:

http://http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20937733&postcount=15540

But the defaults make the most sense ;). However, you can still up the USB-current if you have a boosted USB-port or something that can deliver 650mA but identifies as USB.

Or, you can make it charge slower an AC / misc if you want, but I think 650mA is already pretty 'friendly' for the battery.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KcDaRookie:
@olifee: in the changelog of 2.6_S99 it says:

I don't know if your post was before 2.6 was released, but i interpret this as: no possibility to change the charging behavior... maybe gokhan can clear this up =)

i flashed kernel 2.6.4 without wiping cache/dalvik cache as i dont use BLN.. I was on ndt ginger with 2.6.2 kernel. Now the phone doesnt boot, not a bootloop it just hangs at the triangle. I can enter download mode, cannot enter CWM but my pc doesnt recognize the phone... reinstalled kies, but nothing helped.. anyone had the same problem or does anyone have a tip how to solve my problem?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KcDaRookie:
@m00f:

Kies has nothing to do with Odin, also Kies should not be started if you are using Odin, they dont really like each other.

Open up taskmanager to make sure Kies is not running in the background.

Start Odin, connect your phone to the pc and start downloadmode.

If it still does not work, try Heimdall instead of Odin.

Can be found via google or search the forum.

I read in the thunderbolt thread you have to mount /data /system and /sdcard in cwm before installing the zips. Well, due the the cwm issues I get an error (error mounting /sdcard) with the /sdcard so I haven't continued with the installation.

How should I proceed?

everything else seemed to install fine for me and I verified it was working as per the thread so i just manually copied the sdcard files from the zip to the card myself.
