Got to confirm the new revision works fine now when making nandroid backup. Thanks again GM
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ole12:
Hello.

I got now a strange problem.

I was on your first release of 2.6.13 kernel, and I just saw that you have updated your kernel.

I downloaded it, rebooted to CWM, wiped cache and dalvik, install the zip.

And it did not boot up, it hang at boot-logo, I tried to install older siyah kernel, neak kernel, and remove battery and such.

I had to nandroid recovery to get back on track.

But, WTF did I do wrong? Always thought wiping cache and dalvik was safe??
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Did you try flashing a kernel cleaning zip before actually installing .13?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
download the tar version and flash through odin. i had the same problems so i thought i try with odin...flashed it one time and everything runs ok now. and i am more than likely use that method from now on.:)

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
that kind of thing happened to me before (not with 2.6.13) as well.

and I was doing the same thing which I did hundreds of times before. I was not installing a kernel but installing a rom (maybe it had a kernel image in it,I don't remember) which I installed successfully without wiping data before and I lost my data partition just after installing it on CWM.

I don't think it is because of cleaning cache, or maybe it is, I have no idea.

same kind of problem happened more often while flashing cm7.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
it is because of hardcore's lower gamma values.

I tried to find a better set but I could not. I am using his lowest step as siyahkernel's lowest and the second step is stock.

if you don't like how it looks, you can set min_gamma to 1 to get brightness values very close to stock ones.

it is in /data/.siyah/default.profile
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
my favorite method is to flash tar with CWM app :)

it is easy, usbcable&risk-free.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Yoyoa:
Gokhan it's a beautiful Kernel and thanks a lot for all job done!!!!!

Someone using tegrak? If yes when i plug usb cable it's stuck at max frequency, anyone else?

So far it's not a big problem i can use other governor with a lots of customization!

By the way and again, thank you!

And also, sorry for my poor english ;p
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] shumo:
i really like this kernel

will stick with it unless i find some issues that will affect my daily use .

I really like how it performs on the default ondemand gov . i don't know if it's tweked by the dev or not but it is really nice .

could you recommend a good scheduler that goes with this gov ? i like good no lag no spike performance . i don't mind charging at the end of the day if it gives me smooth and nice use of my phone ( as long as it does not involve overclocking )

thanks for a great kernel mate
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ole12:
I have no idea for I can multi-quote.

Anyway, I never using kernel cleaning script.

I did not have my usb-cabel with me, so i couldnt use odin:( (im buying mobil odin right now:p )

So my conclusion, either CWM app or odin/mobil odin from now on:)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] blaex:
on top of that many (white) sgs2 have a yellow color brand, anyone know how to compensate this while brightness is set to automatic?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cruzargel:
Thanks man, I think it's back to the cooler hue of the screen. Only a reboot was required right?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
right.. since we are (including me) still waiting for the app, we need to reboot after changing /data/.siyah/default.profile :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Destke:
Hi Guys

I got some problems with the Kernell.

First i got to say, my phone is at 140dpi and i underclocked it, also a bit more at moments the screen is off and doing nothing.

But all that can't be the problem that my phone is getting a battery drop and than goes up again. See image..

Is this problem familiair?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Yes that's normal.

Either wait for the battery sensor to stabilize or try this:

1. Charge to full, unplug.

2. Turn off and take battery out for at least 90 secs.

3. Put battery back in and boot up.

All should be fine now.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
it is the problem with the fuel gauge chip.

the interface will have a button to reset fuel gauge chip (which is suggested by Entropy512 to fix such problems)

you can search for it in the forum and run that script (I think droidphile's thread has it)

fuel gauge chip doesn't like kernel or rom flashes very much and can cause problems just like you are having.

just reset the fuel gauge chip (either by the script or pulling out the battery for a while) and fully charge your phone.

you don't have to clear any battery stats. just fully charge and use your phone.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
GM quick question again as your earlier posts have confused me a bit..Once you released the kernel this version today i flashed the tar version through odin. do not seem to have any problems but an earlier post said that you uploaded your final and fifth version....can i ask why and do i need to update then again?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Destke:
Thanks guys. I'll give that a try.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
if you have started your test already, dont update it.

the updates are for config interface.

you can update when the config interface is released.

otherwise you won't notice a difference. there is no kernel code change (except for a very tiny part about changing touchmove parameter)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
ah ok coolio as no problems anyway with the kernel..just waiting for the app to start configurating and playing a bit more...will report with my findings and results mate..thanks again....
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yakyllan:
I'm scared of moving from .12 to .13 only because of the screen brightness.

I felt improvements in every version I have used (since 2.1.1 I think!) .

Is there any chance to get the .13 version without the reduced brightness? I am not an advanced user so I don't know how to use the "scripts" and so on..

Thank you
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
ehh you do know that our s2 comes with settings that you can adjust brightness the way we want yeah;) kernel or no kernel the settings are there to adjust as your heart desires:D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] shumo:
so , there will be another kernel released when the app is ready ?

which will be the proper one to use with the app ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cwc3:
Here is a quick fix for Auto Brightness. If you don't feel like editing the file, this should help you.

Flash it in CWM and reboot.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
no..kernel is ready just waiting for the app to be finalized and then released. no new kernel to be released as you already using it
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yakyllan:
Just what I needed.

*I meant using auto brightness

Thank you so much.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
No worries but you know again that you can set auto brightness and adjust that to your liking. So for example you can put it on full bright and then tick the auto brightness box and it will stay to what you have adjusted it to.:)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] shumo:
so this is to change the auto brightness to a brighter version right ?

this is not to change the saturation so that the white will look closer to the normal samsung one ( not so yellowish )

am i right ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cwc3:
Correct.

Essentially all I did was change 3 values in that zip, then delete the old default.profile and flash the modified one.

Before:

min_bl=50

min_gamma=0

max_gamma=24

After:

min_bl=30

min_gamma=1

Make sure you are using the latest 2.6.13 on this board as it has been revised a few times. The latest CWM v.2.6.13 file have a MD5sum of 593a1a2cfb1e8fbaacedb2c147306b0f.

Gokhan, congratulations for the marriage and this last version; hope to see your support for coming Galaxy S3!

Two short notes for the last version I have installed a few hours ago:

1. My custom ringtone turned to default after this fifth? version which was the start of a song in external sd card. I had to choose it again.

2. I had a SOD this morning and had not touched my settings after installing checkrom v6. No UV, OC etc. I will inform again if it occurs.

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] s2dh:
I cannot get v13 to work, everytime I flash (CWM or Odin) I get boot loops, and have to reflash my rom and go back to v12..?

Tried CheckRom and CriskeloROM and still boot looping?

I have tried wiping Devlik and cache, also running the siyahdefaultprofile zip.

well it is true...Siyah is like how can i put it...Its like being married to Beyonce and having her do everything for you but then you have NEAK which is like Rihanna and whispering all kinda dirty stuff in your ear that she wants to do to you so you have to give her a try to..Hence why i am between the two now:D but Beyonce oops i mean Siyah is the daddy for me still

---------- Post added at 09:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:28 AM ----------

odin version should work as i had trouble with the cwm version hence why i went for odin..flashed once and went through smoothly. try removing your voltage settings that you have on boot and see if that helps.. go into voltage control press menu button and then select remove on boot come out and go and flash the kernel again
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] s2dh:
Clearing the voltage settings worked but if I configure voltage control again will it loop on boot again?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MistahBungle:
That's gotta be the best description of why you'd use a kernel & how tempting it might be to use another I've ever read on here. A classic from the Stiffmeister. :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
no it should work fine now:)

lol cheers fella..:D it is true though..and that is the only way i could compare the two;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pikachu01:
Should be ok. You might've rebooted before media scanning is done at the initial boot.

Are you using any scripts that set the voltage? I know there are a few that does that.

Voltage settings can vary across kernels (and even kernel versions of the same kernel). Use the proper way to undervolt. Stress test before committing the voltage. Use MX Video Player to play an MKV file in software decoding mode for 10mins in that frequency to know that it is really stable.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] s2dh:
I am using the recommended magicconfig v0.31 settings.

Will try the mxvideo test..

Thanks again..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pikachu01:
MagicConfig assumes that you have the exact same hardware as the person who produced that (which is not a good way of undervolting).

If you read the post, he also posted how to get the real way of undervolting (which is by stressing your own phone and conducting your own tests).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Nescho:
I'm on version .12right now. is .13 as stable and worth getting?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
yes as the .13 will be compatible with the configuration app that will be released in the coming few days. And GM has reworked the kernel so you get the battery life of version 2.6.9 because of all the positive feedback regarding that version of kernel
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] geraldgeron:
can i possibly flash directly this with my new s2? just bought 2 days ago..

so i think it will be the odin flashing right? PDA..?

any restrictions or reminders?

or side effects if i got into this?

i got an i9100

baseband DXKL1

kernel: DXKL3-CL814816root@DELL137 #2

build no gb.DXKL3

hehe..thanks hope it can..

iwanna try this..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Must2r4h:
I think you have to at least have root access first.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] geraldgeron:
eh?

okie..so cf root first which is done via odin by mr.chainfire? that will make me superuser..

then this thing via odin also?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] s2dh:
Not sure if I am brave enough to stress test.my phone ;-)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lethas:
not realy need root... just flash siyah kernel... its cf-root kernel. :-) Odin > Pda ".tar" btw
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rauschkugl:
Yes. Flash cf root with Odin to get root and after that siyah either with cwm or odin. Doesn't matter which way.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] shumo:
i think siyah can auto root as well .

but , if it does not work ... you can try CF-root for your build ( which i see is KL3 ) and after this you can flash siyah

use odin for this

ps: you need to have kies installed as well , for odin to recognize your device . but make sure that kies is not running in the background as it interferes with odin

Iam telling you this cos i don't know your previous device and if you are familiar with odin or not

have fun mate
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rauschkugl:
Auto root on siyah was removed ages ago as far as I know.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] OisteinR:

Two things since 2.6.13:

1. Somehow the drain is enormous. It was charged until 8 this morning and 5 hours later it is having 24% and cpu spy tells me, deep sleep did work 77% of time.

2. DHCPHandler is a wakelock, it seems, but I never had that before.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nedooo:
Since 2.6.10 there is no any real life improvement, so if ony point is competing with N.E.A.K. (which btw is also keeping bugs with new versions) is it really necessary to keep updating.

Why trashing already built reputation...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] d3l1:
So far the only "issue" is the boot time which feels like it has at least doubled. Any way to fix it with a script/setting?

GM is using the base of 2.6.9. It is a very good version of Syiah and if you read carefully, you would know that he said he will eventually update but without change the version #.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] It_ler:
+1

Siyah kernel is auto-rooting the phone.

But I also recommend to flash CF-Root first to get CWM Manager app.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mutalisk:
I think CWMapp is implemented in the Siyahkernel image? :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pangiotis24:
you are right.it's implemented in the kernel image

Looks like he put it back in. Even if it doesn't, it has CWM and if you have CWM, you can flash ChainsDD's su packages - http://androidsu.com/superuser/
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I am not competing with anybody nor trying to build a reputation. I am not after any kind of fame nor any kind of recognition.

I would appreciate if you can report bugs in the recent release if you are unhappy with it.

I update frequently and it is a known fact. sometimes I test and sometimes I let users test. siyahkernel is my playground. I only try to avoid features which may cause data loss or big problems but other than that I do not hesitate to make experiments. if you feel like 2.6.10 is better than any recent releases you can use it. I release what I keep on my phone. and in couple of days I will install ICS and won't go back to GB.

and if the above strategy is trashing an unintentionally built reputation, so be it :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
yes I did put su back. I removed it in 2.0 I think or later.. but put it back.

su and Superuser.apk files are in the payload part.

but Entropy512 is right. it is always possible (and even safer) to use Chainfire's package, or install his kernel first.

his kernel has more recent version always and siyahkernel doesn't overwrite superuser package if it is already installed.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Miguel-:
I was wondering that is it possible to put certain processes to a state that they don't upscale the freq?

I think that the picture frame widget causes the freq to scale up every 3 sec or so. It wouldn't be a problem if the time would vary a bit but it wouldn't scale the freq up..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I only tested the latest version with leomar's revolution v2.7.1 and if I had any problems you wouldn't be able to download it now.

I have updated the FAQ (second post) about "the best version".
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ebliss:
While you are at that, can you see if you can achieve this? In Ragemod kernel, if I touch the screen, the max freq it scales up to in ondemand is 800. however, for yours, it goes up to min 1000. Can you lower that?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smertj:
interested in why the kernel can not append the optimal init.d scripts. this is not possible or the problem lies elsewhere?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bgx:
+1 for that ;) :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hausmanis:
il try to ask again, anyone know with newest siyah and all the changes to the govenors is Conservative still the best govenor for batterylife if all i do with my phone is pretty much music, calls, email and internet aka not heavy load ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
you can try to set up_threshold to 85 or even 90 if you want ondemand to scale slower.

echo "85" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold

I will make it default for ondemandx and leave as it is in ondemand.

some people are complaining that ondemand is laggy. I don't want to have those complaints again.

those who want to save battery should use ondemandx.

others can use ondemand with optional screen-off setcpu profiles...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ebliss:
It's not the speed of the scaling that I am talking about. It's the max freq that it holds when I press on the screen. In your kernel, the freq stays at 1000. In Ragemod, it stays at 800 and the up_threshold is at 80%.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cbeckstein:
no deep sleep issues on stock KI3 with the new 1.6reTOUCHed,

no problem with superuser 3.0, feels at least as smooth as its 1.7.8rc2 sibling

so we eventually have a update2 based kernel with all the fine stuff from 1.7.8...

I will keep that...

THANKS!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
good to have a positive feedback on v1.6 :)

we need a stable version for update2 sources with all the features I think.

latest stable update2 version was v1.4 I think... others had some problems with some users.

I hope v1.6 will work fine for all.

but still, v1.7.8 is newer, faster and for my device it is as stable.

You've always been fantastic to us (your userbase) with providing a brilliant kernel, continually improving said kernel, but just as importantly, unlike some devs you put up with a lot of questions you get asked over and over and over and you handle it really well when you'd be well & truly within your rights not to handle it well.

And even more importantly, you've always listened to our feedback, ideas & suggestions and have implemented so many of these it ain't funny.
