Hello smitna,

I wouldn't call it 'permission', dev-related input is always welcome there (so I would not have been surprised if your last post would have been in the dev-thread). My name was just mentioned there because I already made dev-related posts there before Q&A became active ;). So from my point of view, you will always be welcome with such input in the dev-thread :).

nfs(d) is of course interesting, you are right. If many people want this, maybe it can become a 'bundled' module later on.

Of course you are right about the missing native Xserver (sadly). My workaround would have been the following:

Start some mplayer2-build in Debian-chroot and let it dumpstream a fixed channel to a TS-file.

Open the resulting TS-file with a native Android-player while it is still being written (most of those players are also ffmpeg / mplayer-based, those should be able to handle 'growing' files).

This 'solution' of course is far from comfortable if you want to switch channels, but a base for improvements (and might be a nice video-recording-setup). Mplayer can be remote-controlled via lircd and some other api(s), so it should technically also be possible to build an android-app with native mplayer interfacing it to switch through channels.

However, my main problem was that (mostly all) DVB-T-sticks need a firmware to be loaded. I managed to replace the firmware-helper of a desktop with some manual work (I found something on stackoverflow for that), but after the firmware is loaded, the USB-host should do something 'special' like unplugging / replugging the device to initialize it with the new firmware. This did not work with our OTG-host-controller (at least, not in Siyah-1.8). I might give it another shot with 2.2-sources later on.

I also have a DVB-S2-adapter here, which works without loading a firmware and as such should work fine with the phone (did not try yet), but with the satellite dish attached it's not that portable ;).

If you are interested, you can find further descriptions in my posts in dev-thread (and a picture of an FTDI-interfaced digitizer to sample analog signals ;) ).

I guess my 'workaround' should also be fine with webcams and stuff, but we already have two cameras in there :).

EDIT: If you use nfs(d) quite often, just ask for inclusion here in Q&A, and see if gokhanmoral answers ;). If it works great for you, maybe he will add it to extend the feature-list even more :).

2.2b6

Hi folks,

I just want let you know I am running Syiah kernel 2.2beta6 on Cyanogenmod build 110,with most of kerenl tweaks activated through init.d script, ADW launcher.

All is working perfectly well, with no lags, a good battery life under normal use with nera 2 days.

The mix of this ROM and this Kernel is really amazing: fast, smooth.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris331022:
I changed to 2.2beta6. Since 2.2beta4 the kernel supports 2nd core from tegrak.

Do I need this app or is the 1-core-turnoff-feature included in the kernel?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pockobg:
Turn off future is included, you can use the app to choose manualy.

Do some one know what has changed from v2.1 RC2 to RC3 ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smitna:
Hello olifee,

I made a quick test with a Hauppauge WinTV Nova-T USB Stick which is full supported since kernel 2.6.20 with firmware. Connected to a USB hub to the phone (host mode) the device gets detected. Sadly in the moment I cannot successfully compile the necessary modules for siyah 2.2b6 (Invalid module format error) so I have to wait for the new kernel sources from Gokhan. I don't want to go back to 2.1.1... My idea is to stream the dvb signal from the command line and receive it with a client like vlc (I don't think your ".TS solution" will work, what's about the permanent write loop to the sdcard and the size of the ts-file?). There are some streamers like dvbyell and DVBStreamer.

There is also one more problem to solve:

With a connected OTG-cable the phone gets no external power to load the battery while playing the stream (if it will work).

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scoman:
Hello everyone!

I hope I'm not the only one to have clear lag with version 2.2beta6, true?

I've solved using CWM app installed by ROM Manager.

And I also have difficulties to mount internal SDcard when the device is just turn on... so I continue to applicate scrpt by Olifee at the #221 post of this thread.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] |ErosizeD|:
Good! 120 FPS updated driver, thanks, now i can try to make something good, something damn gooD!!

One more thing, the kernel controlls also the sharpness, and aspect ratio of 1080P videos, so there is a chance to increase the "area" on 1080P.

Im gonna PM you tomorrow, i see you're developing this kernel ;)

EDIT:

I found some interesting things to increase the image quality dramatically just modifying a bit the driver.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olifee:
Hello smitna,

you are right, streaming should be a lot better (I did not give size so much thought with the big external SD). mplayer with recording to a fifo-file created with mkfifo and then streaming from that file should also work.

Streaming with mplayer from dvbstreamer or something like should also be possible ;-). After all, mplayer(2) get's most new features before they finally arrive in vlc (and is far less bloated concerning memory use etc.).

You can try to load the modules with "insmod -f" to force loading regardless of the module-version, sometimes it works, sometimes it does not (gokhanmoral always changes many things for the better ;-) ).

I am not sure whether the phone still 'accepts' 5 volt power source on the voltage-pins while OTG is connected (I did not try yet). With a Y-cable (used to connect high energy devices like 2.5''-HDDs to laptops) it might be possible, connecting one end to the power source / a hub, the other one to the phone, and the third one to the DVB-T-stick. Power should then be (technically) available on the OTG-cable, if the phone accepts it (and the adapter-cable lets it through). After all, the cables are used to join powers of two usb-power-sources and as such should be 'shortened' ;).

The instructions for loading the firmware are here (I guess the kernel still needs some userspace-helper, even if the firmware is available bundled with it, but I am not sure, so just in case):

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/firmware_class/README;hb=HEAD

In case this works for you (and maybe with the new 2.2 also for me?), we may add some lines in the /sbin/hotplug-script gokhan already put in place (does nothing for now, but he has nice plans with it).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smitna:
Hello olifee,

thanks for the link and fifo should be a second option. "insmod -f" is not working, as I expected... (although I changed the Compiler to the older version 4.4.1, the same for the 2.2 betas I saw) We have to wait for the final. If I will have some success, I will give a feedback.

Hi I just have a quick question..

I have just installed the official MIUI rom on my SGS2 and the first thing I noticed was that my wifi signals was WAY better than I have EVER had with any other kernel. (official from samsung or unofficial ones) Since the wifi driver is in the kernel, what about using the wifi code from the miui kernel and implement that into Siyah kernel? I always though that the SGS2 had poorer wifi reception than any other phone I've had in the past and thought it was a harware issue, but now I know it's just in the kernel code. Would be great if Siyah kernel also could have this advantage over the rest of the SGS2 kernels out there...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwerdenker:
I'm using lulzactive and I never noticed any stuttering when playing mp3 in screen off. I also did some comparison tests and while I can't detect any usage differences between the two, CpuSpy shows lulz keeps itself more to the 100Mhz step so I guess for me it's the more effecient of those two.

Latest beta..

v2.2 beta7

Posted on November 12, 2011

Changelog:

■added Cyanogenmod native led notifications (thanks to DvTonder). You may need to install CM7 again as my previous kernels were copying liblights over the original one. From this version on it will be copied only on samsung roms.

Does this mean i cannot use BLN app? and iam stuck with non blinking leds again?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidphile:
lulzactive is based on smartass, as is smartassV2. Both governors has same upsampling and downsampling time (24000us, 49000us) respectively.

After 2nd core threshold set to 70 in beta6, lulzactive is very smooth for me. Previously there were small lags scrolling LP app drawer.

Audio stuttering is due to the fact that lulzactive locks on to global minimum frequency while screen is off, and is reluctant to scale up frequency during screen off. SmartassV2 doesn't have this problem, since it scales down to minimum frequency while screen is off, and there is no upper limit for frequency during screen off.

If you want to tweak lulzactive for yourself, try echo suitable values to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/lulzactive/down_sample_time and /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/lulzactive/up_sample_time
