You may try Temp Root Remover App from the market.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dave_uk:
Doesn't work. The only custom kernel that seems to work with Sky Go is Speedmod, for some reason. Would be great if GM could make Siyah compatible also.

@gokhanmoral

when CM9 team prepares a release candidate it will be possible to include callrecorder (skvalex) patch in new kernel ?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rauschkugl:
check the portal, somebody made an app which you can use to temporarily remove root and add it again when you're done with using an app that doesn't work when rooted.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dave_uk:
This does not work with non-stock kernels.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zaphod777:
There are reports that the i9100 is going to get an official ICS in the next few days. Does Samsung usually release their source at the same time?

I hope so then we can have a real ICS kernel :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
I doubt that it will accompany the Official release.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23418443&postcount=11764

More likely to say that the source should be released within a month or so from the Official firmware release date.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Entropy512:
It's variable as hell. Sometimes source shows 2-3 weeks before official release (Captivate Gingerbread), other times it's the same day, other times (Infuse AT&T gingerbread) it's a month or more.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Shamms:
Hi Gokhan,

I installed the new app of your EXtweaks. Can you pls provide me details of link which explains this app or provided ideal setting to be done using this app.

Rgds,

Shammi
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
the most comprehensive info about the parameters can be found in droidphile's thread.

there is a link in the OP.

the content of the app is dynamic. so, if you install another kernel you may have completely different look or maybe it won't work at all if the required interface is not implemented.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sadonlyone:
@gokhanmoral

any answer for me, please? (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23411047&postcount=19905)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I have no answer to that question yet.

CM9 did not make a release candidate. there is no kernel source and there is no call recording patch for that unreleased kernel source neither.

if you want a hypothetic answer, then here it is: we'll see :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] d3l1:
maybe the reason today but I have this issue for nearly a week now. And it's not reproducable nor is it always present. It's 1 out of 3/4 calls that just drops in the middle of the call for no reason.

And no it can't be the ROM because I haven't changed it for about half a year now, and it can't be the operator because I'm the only one having this issue (we even use the same cell tower and I'm the only one with calls dropped).

Sorry gokhan I don't want to blame your kernel but it started after flashing siyah .13. I flashed it again this morning to exclude a bad flash, let's see.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
don't be sorry. I don't take this kind of feedbacks as a blame or flame.

it just doesn't make sense. it is more modem or network related.

I had similar problem while my operator was upgrading the firmwares on the basestations.

flashing the kernel may just be a coincidence. I also used 2.6.13 for about a week and I don't recall a single call drop.

just in case, I also recommend you to install siyah-resetdefaultprofile.zip in CWMRecovery or using CWMApp(Flash update) from my blog.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] veyka:
I have not had a single dropped call the whole time I have had this phone, and I have ran this kernel for quite a few months with no issues, and none with the .13 version.

Intermittent network issues are normally a sign of upgrades or network issues, have you called your carrier and asked them about it?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] d3l1:
I will do a whole cleanup on sunday, flash the kernel cleaner, flash your reset file and then do a clean flash of siyah .13, setup the extweak and vc settings and see if there was an error buried somewhere.

I can call my provider but I think I can rule it out, because from my friends/family I'm the only one with this issue (same operator, even the same cell tower in our town, there are only 2 :) ) and nobody else here has dropping calls.

one question though, VC doesn't let me set the charging values anymore since installing Extweaks, but extweaks only offers 3 options. Can I manually set values in the default.profile file or while they be overwritten?

a little question at the end, the charging value "misc" is for the car charger, right? or does the car charger fall under "usb"? because my navigation app is kind of a power hog (navigon ...) and I need it to charge faster to maintain the battery level, otherwise the battery drops even when charging (stupid app, poorly programmed but imho the best routing). sorry for OT!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jim-bo:
That depends on the car charger. Many (all the one's I have access to) appear to the phone as USB chargers, not even misc.

There is some identification protocol that involves tieing the D+ and D- lines in the USB connector to certain voltages to indicate the maximum current available.

You would have to plug your device in, and use an app that can report the connected charger type to see what it presents as. Battery Monitor Widget can do it, as can quite a few of the system info type apps.

The charger circuitry only offers two options for the current draw. That is why there are so few options in ExtTweaks. They are the only ones that actually exist and work
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] invicible:
The lcd auto brightness seems like delay or quite weird sometimes when under sunlight. A bit hard to read on phone..

hope to get the stock 'auto brightness'.....^^?? It is possible...?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Entropy512:
iDevice chargers show as USB

Chargers with D+ and D- shorted together show as AC

MISC is probably when D+ and D- are open
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Crescendo Xenomorph:
@GokhanMoral: First, thanks very much for this wonderful kernel... ^^

I'm using v.13#122 international and since I upgraded to v.13 (any version), I can't do any TB backup (batch backup) anymore as it's always hang (whether the screen is on/off).

The only way is to reset my device to get it work again... And the configuration is Siyah kernel's standard. No OC/UV... Do you know why is this happening?

When I revert back to v.12, the TB is normal again... Btw I'm using stock XWLA4...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MistahBungle:
Stock brightness settings have been posted here since 2.6.13 was released (I.E in the last week or so). Read back thru the thread (Start at 03/03 & work your way forward).

Hi Gokhan,

It seems that ExTweaks app force closes every time in MIUI, since latest build.

- tried to wipe data/cache/reinstall - to no avail

It worked well in 2.3.2 build. :confused:

Hi, im having some issues when i play heavy games like gta 3.

Every time i open gta 3 my phone get extremely hot and freeze or reboot.

When it freeze i need to remove batery to it back to work.

Im using Wiui 2.3.2 with Siyah 2.6.13, no overcloks and no undervolt, governor is set to on demand via Set CPU.

Anyone can help me ? Thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] omniwolf:
thanks for all your work on GB gok.

Has anyone else noticed that the infrared (?) light next to the front camera (dunno what it is.. proximity censor?) is always on? In daytime you can't really see it, but at night it's visible to the naked eye. what's happening there?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pikachu01:
Try undervolting your GPU and CPU. It'll get less hot, however the heat problem is a perennial problem for SGSII (FYI).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
although I will create another thread, for now, I could not think a better thread to announce this:

repacked ICS kernel is up in my blog.

the new recovery is very good (swipe support)

those who are already on ICS may want to check it.

latest leak is already very battery efficient and runs great. I have been using it for almost 3 days without going back to GB.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Kaffee4Eck:
Best Kernel ever made
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
no, it doesn't support ntfs yet. actually it doesn't support anything that Samsung kernel doesn't support. the changes are only in initramfs.

as for one button rooting-unrooting, you may get some errors. I noticed that I did not suppress some errors and they are printed out.

but the method is very robust.

I delete all su and superuser related files and spawn a background script.

when you want to install root again, install button just sends a signal to that script. then the script which is running with root permissions installs superuser and su files using the payload appended to the end of the kernel.

so, there is no superuser files in initramfs and it is nearly impossible to detect there is a process waiting for superuser installation.

I hope it will also fix the problems with sky app and others. my Garanti CepBank app runs with this method.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tolis626:
Hey Gokhan,have you seen this thread by XpLoDWilD,in which he tries to make an open source 3.x.x kernel for the GS2?It seems very interesting and promising,and I believe it's better to work on that instead of Samsung's crap for the time being.That is,if you do want to work on something.I suppose they could actually use the help of some very talented kernel developers like you and Entropy512.In fact Entropy512 has already posted there.

Just suggesting here. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mutalisk:
Wrong link? :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I saw that thread. as he has already said in the thread, that kernel is for origenboard which also use exynos.

but there are some problems and solving those problems will be more easier when samsung releases the source.

I think it has some deepsleep issues which I suspect that they are related with gpio configuration and wakeup sources.

all can be fixed but I think I will only inspect the sources for now and wait for samsung to fix them. if it was the only way I would spend time on fixing them one by one but they are already fixed in the latest leak and I hope we will get a better source soon (in a month or so)

but it is good to have exynos4210 kernel sources coming from different origins. maybe some companies have more skillful developers than samsung :)

EDIT: the correct link is http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538872
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I will download cm9 sources and see if I can get the kernel running on cm9 as more people use it already :)

but remember not to piss the people working on cm9 by reporting anything while using my experimental initramfs :P
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tolis626:
Yep.It's good music though. :p

Sorry guys,but I was simultaneously sending the song link to a friend and ****ed up.I sent her the link to XpLoDWilD's thread and put the Lux Aeterna link here.Brainfart! :D

Aha...Still,you may find something interesting in there,one can never be too sure. ;)

Anyway,let's hope that sources don't come in a month.Or even better,let's hope Sammy doesn't **** up again.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Honusnap:
Was having these problems, no more now that i'm on LW4 Stock kernel.

What strange to me is that the LW4 is better in every spot than Siyah, and i like Siyah very much.. BUT i missed the voltage/tweaks that Siyah offer, tweaks that i suppose would take LW4 to a little higher .. :-).

Why not tooking LW4 as a base and add some interface to be able to tweak it... ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
actually, I would love to take LW4 as base, or at least see the code changes.

but since Samsung clearly violates GPL and doesn't release new source code changes in it's github or opensource site, we cannot do that.

Entropy512's BT fix proves that the latest kernel images are not using the latest source code release (update3).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Honusnap:
HOOoo i was not aware of the fact that the code for LW4 wasn't out .. ! Bad Samsung, you're bad .. :). Thanks Gokhan for your good work, i stay near 6 month with your kernel.

We will certainly all be under ICS before they release their LW4 sources...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tolis626:
Samsung and their crapola.Not that they are any worse than HTC was or any of the other manufacturers,but this has to stop sometime.

Meanwhile,all of us here should sign the petition for Samsung to release the kernel sources.It can be found somewhere in the forums. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hsupi:
Thanks gokhanmoral I see.

But i know , it is just a beginning .

this kernel will be good and powerful more and more.

Thanks again!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kmilof:
I power off my phone to charge it and after a few minutes in powers back on while charging and continues to charge.

will this be kernel related or rom?

im on checkrom v6 and siyah 2.6.13
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Yeah, they need to remedy the situation as soon as possible in my view. HTC has already done that by providing a bootloader unlocking tool, so they are really striving to be the favourite for Devs this year.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
it is kernel related and it is fixed in #122.

just redownload it from my blog and you'll be fine.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kmilof:
done ;)! thanks !
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] stevehkim:
GK is the att version updated to #122? I downloaded recently and it still shows #120.

in my build script, I build international version last. so, if international version is #122 att version is #120.

if the difference is more than 2, redownload :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] seaweeduk:
great news I have missed your kernel a lot since switching to cm9
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bleuxeon:
yep GREAT news!!!:)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hawkerpaul:
By the way Gokhan, I've just been playing about with ExTweaks. There's an awful lot in there, and its going to open the device far more for fine tuning and tweaking. Great job as usual you and xan are doing.

A couple of suggestions for ExTweaks:

1. Can you include 2 profiles, one for battery, the other for performance, that set all the related options according to what you consider to be the optimum settings. These would form a good basis for us to perhaps tweak some more if desired.

2. It is VERY easy to inadvertently adjust settings without realizing when scrolling through the screen. If a setting has been changed deliberately and you have unwittingly changed a few others, all these settings will of course be saved when you apply them. Can you include in the app an option to revert ALL settings back to kernel defaults. I know that there is a default.prop.bak in /data/.siyah that can be copied back, but it would be nice to be able to do this within ExTweaks.

3. Due to the problem in point (2) sliders are very easy to change by mistake. Perhaps text input boxes would be better here than the sliders?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
ouch.. I've just answered the same question in another forum and it is like dejavu :)

I'll just paste the answer:

the app has profile support and there will be 3 profiles I think (xan will decide on that). in the test version I had performance, battery and default profiles. but since there were some problems and missing parts in the implementation he postponed the profile support.

there will be a resetting button, also in the next version. we have added a special tag for that in the xml. you will be able to reset all the settings back to default. there is actually a default.profile file in /res/customconfig folder which is used during data saving and trimming the unused variables and it is also used during the first creation of /data/.siyah/default.profile. when you delete /data/.siyah/default.profile and /data/.siyah/.active.profile, new profile will be created with default settings. you can also flash siyah-resetdefaultprofile.zip from my blog to delete those two files by flashing it in CWM recovery.

and you are right. sliding is a little tricky in voltage control app as well.

you need to select an appropriate region to slide. I tried to put some long descriptions to let you slide easier. for now, I have no solution for that. textboxes are a little more tricky way to parse those kind of inputs, and harder to use. I generally apply settings one by one and when something changes when I was going between pages I just discard the last change.

we were thinking about more advanced scenarios and some export/import functionality to let users to share profile settings, but those were too complicated and would break the compatibility with other kernels.

that is why I use /data/.siyah and some other kernel will use /data/.whatever or somewhere else.. this way, you will find your settings unchanged (unless you wipe data) when you try another kernel and come back to siyah.

I talked (actually wrote) too much

anyway.. I hope I answered them all.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tghandour:
Hi Gokhan, excellent work done man. Actually Siyah was my first Kernel installed when i first bought my phone back to ver 2.4.2. Excellent work done too for the Extweaks app although i think it needs some polishing and face lift. I hope it includes a part for adjusting Governors parameters (i use SetCpU).

I have a couple of questions:

1- how do i apply Lionheart tweaks with Siyah

2- i am on stock JPJK2 since bought the mobile and only playing with Kernels, and thought its time to flash a new ROM and would like to get ur recommendation on the best ROM that really make a good combo with ur Kernel.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
1- you have two options. either flash lionheart.zip from the first post (I hope it is still there :) ) or use setcpu to set sampling rate of conservative governor to 10000 and freq% to 5. I hardly want to call that tweak lionheart and I left it to you to set it. in the latest version, if I am not wrong, the sampling rate of conservative governor is 20000 with freq% of 10. that should give you very similar experience.

2- this one changes. I prefer stock-like samsung-crap-removed roms. I used a lot of roms and I cannot say anything negative about them. some of them are frequently updated and I don't like that a lot (contradicts the release strategy of this kernel? yes, it does :) ). I was using gingermod because it had a samsung base with AOSP experience. I don't like too many fancy animations and colors. if you like them you should try some other rom.

now I am on CM9 latest nightly and I am speechless... it works incredibly smooth!

I fixed the problem with the initramfs in the latest alpha.

also, I fixed some other tiny problems.

I'll release it soon. I hope mybackup root can restore all my apps without any problems. I had some problems with titanium backup last time.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tghandour:
Thanks GM for your answer. I also dont like too much fancy animations and similar stuff that is way i stayed with Stock, however as u said it is full of crap so i will give Gingermod a try.

Cant wait to try your CM9 based release.. Please do asap.. :) :thumbup:

Thanks again for supporting all ur fans relentlessly..
