32% down in 23 hours....not bad for a light/average day....just some texts, phone calls, little youtube, read a comic, and posted some pics/updates on FaceBook...

Going to flash Dark Knight Siyah 2.3 now and try it out....supposed to be a battery saving version of Siyah...we'll see...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eseregin:
Yes, please, try it. I have tried, in my experience SpeedMod gave better result.

Will see what you will have! 8-) More tests, more objective results

I flashed it even over the ics theme and it worked for me I always got my font back :-)

heres what you need to do make the ICS theme work for S&C

1. Flash the simple & clean 2.3 and flash the 2.3.1 update too

2. Boot in to system and install go launcher from the market plae (or any other you like )

3. download a rom which has the normal TWlauncher such as andromedia 3.0

4. switch to go launcher and copy these files in to the system partition from the downloaded rom

a. system/app/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk

b. system/framework/twframework.jar

c. system/framework/twframework-res.apk

d. system/app/phone.apk

5. After copying above files reboot recovery and wipe data & cache and delvik

6. Reboot in to system and you will have the unmodified TWlauncher and the phone.apk

-- No need for this now it has been fixed : <!--7. now you need to delete the mms.apk from the ICS update package. Then you won't loose your messagin app after flashing :D-->

8. Reboot recovery wipe cache & delvik then flash the ICS theme

9. Reboot in to system and enjoy

Hey.. since the new release is out i must ask that why is there no correction for the bounce effect. the overscroll blue thing is there in messages, contacts, phone, photo viewing. Its nt corrected yet.

And some new font has been added in the v2.3. How to change that since the font setting is also not there in settings. I hate this font.

i flashed 2.3 version and speedmod test 12 last night. and charged it to 100%.

woke up with 95% (about 10 hours later since charged)

i got 4h and 30m screen on time, and 2 of them was gaming time.

I played defender (VERY addicted game) about 2 hours.

So i must say, goood battery life with this rom and the speedmod kernel.

Battery is dead, so now begins the charging cycle.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ludester:
Finally got a chance to update from 1.2 to 2.3 with Speedmod 18 Test 12 battery life looks very promising.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Thedonk13:
Flashed the required apks and got universal ICS on my SGSII. I'm loving it so much...also, I mentioned it already, but Zeam launcher really makes this rom fly...dark knight siyah 2.3 is doing pretty well also..

Those with lag, try the zeam launcher...it may change your life
[Galaxy S II Android Development] glenncain:
glad you've joined the ICS bandwagon again. what a big round about it was, but its worth it.

so whats your favourite in their latest version so far? void speedmod or siyah?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Thedonk13:
i'm really digging this dark knight siyah 2.3...i haven't given a full day use...going to charge to full now and see how well it sleeps...won't lie, that's kinda my favorite way to tell how well a kernel works...if it sleeps well, than the battery should last forever for me, since i'm a light to medium user...so anyways...i will keep ya posted...so far, speedmod k2-16 is still the best for battery...void is a really nice balance, but i can sacrifice some performance for longer battery life
[Galaxy S II Android Development] glenncain:
tested siyah for a morning. i can see why you are happy with it. and i've got my boot animation too (my battery saving consciences will blame me less).

now can some one point me to any page that has the basics or comprehensive readings which enables me to fully use siyah's customization capabilities?

i've tried searching the bits here and there but some terms are beyond reach of me such that its hard for me to build the puzzles together~
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Thedonk13:
i used the Dark Knight Siyah from the CheckRom thread...they have a complete change log on their site and they admit to modifying it for battery savings...it's not too bad...i run the lulzactive gov as well...going to fire up the 2nd Core app and run it in single core tomorrow to check it out....shouldn't be too bad since i don't really game or watch movies on my SGSII...

other than that, i really don't much about the customizations that one can do with Siyah....the thread is has gotten crazy and its just all over the place...the the general, or maybe it was Q&A, there is a thread about init.d scripts for Siyah...i even think they create an init.d creator...

[Galaxy S II Android Development] eseregin:
Thanks sir!

Just curious - exist parts from Android 4 for us, were they included for optimisation as well?

Thanks for this greate Rom!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MrPhilo:
If your on about Ice cream sandwich (v4.0), nothing was included. It isn't compatible with Gingerbread. Only the framework can be modified for Gingerbread, but I don't think'll you see improvement in that but a buggy ROM.

Simple & Clean v2.4 IS LIVE! :D

[Galaxy S II Android Development] MrPhilo:
Yes. libsqlite.so and libsqlite_ini.so are from CM7. They was included since the day of the ROM :) and still is included.

app_process and system_server is 'fugutweaks' what people call them, they are also included since day one :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] bluesinjid:
Sorry, I am pretty new with installing roms. Do I use clockwork recovery? Because whwen I tried it did not work as when I booted up it was still showing 2.3.3 android. And what version of JKay Deluxe v13.2 do I use for this rom?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CamoGeko:
Yes, it's supposed to be flashed via recovery. If you're coming from 2.3.3 I'd recommend a full wipe before flashing the rom.

Also I think it's a good idea for you to do a lot more reading, all info can be found easily thay way.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] moepkid:
hey all,

i have a question about the new dk kernel. is this a better one then the stock siyah???? also if i change governor, what do you all suggest? and what are the stock frequencie in this kernel??? 1200mhz max??? and 200 min just like stock. also can i just install this over my phone without wiping??? im coming from the previous version of this rom
[Galaxy S II Android Development] MrPhilo:
Just a tad little, but that might be me though. All kernel are about the same but I still prefer the original Siyahkernel. But the Darkknight ver. seems more stable than the Siyah's which is why I used it :)

But best battery saver is Speedmods test 12. ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bluesinjid:
Is it possible not doing a wipe and just using the wipe cache? cause I have a lot of settings, configs I do not want to delete. and it says its a non-wipe version. What should I do with all the apps I have downloaded if I want to wipe?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] bluesinjid:

You can use Titanium Backup to save those, and they can be restored after you install the rom.

Tried it, and although it looks promising, it deleted quite a bit of the default apps that I liked, and also was impossible to restore with titanium because I could not check usb debugging. Hopefully samsung updates my android to 2.3.4....

what gov are you using? i haven't had any FPS problems....its runnin smooth and nice for me...battery life isn't has good as speedmod, but it's not the "worst kernel ever"...if you would have read the DK siyah thread, you would notice the kernel has been modified to be more battery friendly, and not so focused on performance...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CamoGeko:
Hmmm... sounds like a DPI issue. Try this:

Download DPI changer from the market, should download fine. Run that, accept root priveleges. In the box type in 240 then save, it will prompt you to reboot but don't do it yet. Instead exit the app, then go into settings - applications - manage applications - market - delete data. Now reboot and try again.

Hope that helps. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Brutos08:
Great from mate best i have used so far..just like the title simple and clean and i install what i want ....great rom..keep up the good work
[Galaxy S II Android Development] prox4ion:
Well, it's working now. Could be I restored some settings from Titanium backup? I don't usually use this app, but I now see the light :)

More probable is that I just had to wait a few hours. I read somewhere on the web that it can take up to 48 hours for market to recognize a new device? How does Google detect a device. IMEI? Before rooting and using the stock firmware, the device did show up in market. Looks like Google removed my device after I put on different custom firmware.

Also, maybe it's me, but with firmware 2.4, I now longer get the prompt to sync with market when I do a wipe. Usually after a reset I get a "touch the android" to start and I get asked to login with a google account.

Anyways, things are good now.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chriszue:
sorry but i cant apply the 2.4 update, i flash it in CWM and it said that "bad installation" (abort) i didn't wipe my data, so is it the problem?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CamoGeko:
That's good, glad to help you out mate.

Market should recognize device instantly, DPI is what is causing for it to vomit and say that the app you're trying to download is not supported.

Anyways I hope they fix it soon, coz I like my DPI at 192 and lower. :D

I don't change governors. I use stock. But When I flash supermod or original siyah all is fine. I have problems only with DK version. I know kernel performances varies user to user so I think I am unlucky one.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CamoGeko:
DPI = dots per inch.

There are a few apps on the market that can change the DPI, but the theme you are using has to support it.

Pros, sharper screen. Looks proportionally like a larger work area.

Cons, some graphics might not display as they are meant to. Also some apps do not install from the Market, until you change the DPI back to stock (240) and clear market data.

The TWLauncher they use is the original version of touchwiz with themes over it. Whereas i've customised this TWLauncher, you can place your homepage anywhere along having a smoother scroll :)
