First is fixed, but for second, I'd rather not touch volt values myself. I'd rather leave possibly-damaging tweaks to the pros. ^_^ Just mentioning it here in case someone else has a similar issue. I think I remember someone mentioning touchscreen issues at the max clock speed, though it was versions ago. Still, maybe it's related. Hence, the post.

Also, it happens less often at 1.7Ghz, but still happens.

Still, thanks for the prompt response and help. ^_^

Flashed v0.4 running lagfree gov was so smooth I underclocked to 1.3ghz....still smoother than this phone has ever been. Thanks for the kernel its really great work can't wait to see what direction you take it in.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
I cant seem ti get it to patch in and work correctly, I asked romanbb in a pm to share his source for the patch but he declined/ignored it. so i'll tinker away. I'm sure ill get it.

Running Syn 0.4, and my phone is literally losing 1% batt life every 10 min with the screen off

Juggernaut 2.0, Lightning Blue theme, Synergy 0.4

No apps are running, using lagfree governor and its draining SO fast. Stock would sit all night while i sleep and lose 1%...

Not sure what im supposed to change?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] a4 moda:
Been running v .02 for a few days now. My phone works with the 100mhz min. freq. Everything is running great.

I see no reason to update to the newest version.

Great Kernel!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
Are you using smartass?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rekzer:
lagfree, smartass doesnt seem any different
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
I run lagfree exclusively except for testing other govs for release, and i do not experiense the same drain you do.

If it was smartass i would have blamed that as it seems to malfunction right now.

On a side note guys new kernel update is in the first post, i have removed smartass until it can be fixed. running it or offering a gov that hands on max clock 24/7 is useless.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] camf3xu:
Does lagfree eat ipod battery for ne on else? my battery life went from awesome to terrible. going to try going back to on demand
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
Romanbb has shared his BLN patch with me, so support for BLN will be shortly and you can thank him not me!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dungtran88:
My battery drain pretty quick when using lag free. And I setcpu max is 1512
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasontx:
Thanks Roman :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sleepy13909:
What should i put the min. Mhz freq. On lagfree
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skadude66:
I set it to the lowest possible (384MHz).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sleepy13909:
Ok ty thats what i just tried working good so far
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
By default Samsung are retarded and turn off the multiprocessor service. this is not only idiotic but is also part of the reason why there is battery drain. I have just finished turning that service back on and setting it so it will shut off the second core when not needed and when the screen si off, and turn it back on only when its needed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pellel2:
Do you guys even understand what lagfree does??? lagfree keeps one of the two cores active at all times over certain frequencies. You will ALWAYS have major drain of battery if you use lagfree. Prove it to yourself. try to use for example Conservative. Look at the gain in battery life but the drop in performance. BeastMod feels so smooth because of the lagfree governor. you either drop the max freq of lagfree governor or you switch governors. very simple and straight forward. you will have to compromise.

Unless someone really finds a way of making lagfree governor deepsleep both cores when the phone is off by kernel-wise the battery consumption will increase. You can set off screen freqs by setCPU but you still keep the phone awake doing this even when the screen is off.

hope this clarifies

---------- Post added at 10:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:16 PM ----------

There you guys thats exactly the fix. Just be patient until the code is ready and you will see a big improvement of battery whilst big performance during screen on usage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cashyftw:
Okay great! I was having major issues with battery, I had to revert to stock kernel -_-
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dungtran88:
I Know that but before I post, I tried to using onDemand and it even drain my battery quicker so I now I just switch to laggfree and wait.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] a4 moda:
Mr. X- I have a request.

Is it possible for you to make the new kernel updates with min freq@ 180 - and for Telus phones who experience SOD- they can scale it up to 380?

My phone works exceptional with your kernel, and with 180 freq, battery life is still phenomenal. 384 drains way too much for me.

Thank you!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
Next release ill set that up buit min freq will be 384, to set it lower you will have to use set cpu or other like apps.

BTW v0.05 is out!

Oops, LOL I also flashed this before reading the most recent.. oh well :)!! Super glad to be using this Kernel, and even more excited about the proper functioning core shut off too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pellel2:
Hey mr x how would this auto on/off multicore code would change lagfree governor?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
Although lagfree normally keeps one core more active it should finctipn with a single core it will just keep that core that is on a lil more active to rwduce lag
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
Fixed the update script so it does not smoke root. new link in first post.

Lets pretend t hat didnt happen LOL :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mettleh3d:
Thank you Mr. X! Can we expect better batt and to use lagfree as the default governor?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hazard99:
Omg here im thinking busy box and super user got messed up lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
We shall see if there is better batt im using lag free amd testing
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] drewtang:
I'm running lagfree, and this is my battery life, certainly no complaints here. Similar to what I was getting with stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bighulk666:
I appreciate all the updates you are doing so fast to your kernel. Great work.

I'm going to try and set a screen-off profile of 648/384 to see that it will help boost bat life.

Normal profile: Lagfree - 1512/384

Mr. X- i tried using other programs, but the min freq is still @ 384. Any way for me to reduce that to 100mhz ??

Thanks

I can only set my max freq to 1512? Is this normal?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] firebane:
Awesome work with the kernel.

Do you think it maybe possible to find a way to allow for the touch buttons to have light adjustments from your kernel?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] babymatteo:
V0.05 with BeastMod go together like peanut butter and jelly! So smooth!!!

Mr X, would it be possible to include support for bootanimation.zip on the next update?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pellel2:
Hey i guesses you did it mate. The only thing i put the phone to sleep for like 10 mins. When i checked cpuspy 4.5 mins was sleep and 3.5 min stock at 384. But thats better than before for sure
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ashtear:
I just tried flashing 0.05 from 0.04.1, and the phone just shuts off after about 5 seconds of the new splash screen being visible. It wouldn't turn on unless I held the power button for about 10 seconds, then it vibrated 3 times, tried to boot up, and again shut down shortly after the splash screen.

Restoring now to backup.

Any ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] FRuiTBoOT:
Restoring doesn't Restore the previous Kernel, you have to flash a new Kernel. You could have gotten a bad DL. Just try flashing the last kernel you had before V0.05.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ashtear:
Well, after restore, it booted up no problem, just like before, so it seems to have restored the kernel. Don't know the old and new compile dates and times to check, though.

Gonna try downloading again, though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] throwedyungg:
Hell to the YES! Thanks Mr. X! and romanbb for the BLN support and awesome kernel! Made my day!

how can i turn off screen wake when a text is received.. bln doesnt seem to well with the TW sms because when a text is received the screen turns on, heard it works fine with 3rd party texting apps.

nevermind it works.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hazard99:
So is there a glitch with the min frequency jumping erratically i thought that was only native to super tuner
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jester450:
Like the boot animation :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Enzopreme:
pardon my ignorance, but what is BLN support?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pellel2:
What about adding conservativeX governor next update? Is there a way you can add a mukticore code for conservative governor in ur kernel? I still believe conservative is one of the best and most stable

What about savagedzen?;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
I know ziggy471 was workinf on all the governers to add better multi core support ill ask him.

Hey Mr. X, love this kernel but could you please re-add the 192mhz clock or tell me how cause I never had the sod. I had a little better battery life when using it. I used setcpu and set a profile for screen off 192-432mhz and never once had sod. Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
ill add it back in to the next build, like i said already, i'll force it to min of 384 unless users use setcpu to change it. that way no one gets SOD out of the box.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] onyonees:
Back Light Notification. There is an app in the market place called BLN which enables the buttons at the bottom of the phone to blink like an LED would. BLN only works with kernels that support the feature and this kernel now supports BLN. Its a great feature IMO.

not an isseu with the kernel, something get all weird in the cache clear both of them in recovery.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pit_Viper:
First, I'd like to thank you for your work on the kernel! Second, I'd like to share a problem I had: I updated from version 0.02 to 0.05 (version that doesn't ruin root access). Although SuperUser reports successful root access, it appears that applications are unable to gain root (e.g. SetCPU can't change min/Max frequencies, Bloat Freezer can't make the system partition writable, etc.). Could skipping versions 0.0.3 - 0.04.1 have caused this problem? (Has anyone else gone from 0.02 to 0.05?) I tried fixing permissions, clearing cache, reflashing 0.05, etc. to no avail...

(I'm back on 0.02 for the moment, and all is well...)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ashtear:
That sounds like what happened to me. Try fix permissions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
That is crt animations in the roms. That is a feature.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ceoesquad:
Thanks that fixed it love the kernal
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
when this happens go in to super user and reset all the apps it currently has to auto permit for superuser access. when they ask again it will allow them properly.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ashtear:
The CRT-like effect is on screen off. It was persisting upon screen on, delaying lockscreen display.

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

Just in case, the problem seemed to be a custom boot animation I had installed. I removed it and then kernel flash worked fine. Live Logcat.

I just flashed the revised v0.05, and did a test, this Kernel must be possessed cause it just threw a hysterical score–mind you I do this just for comparison from other tweaks/roms/kernels.

Just topped the charts! :D:eek: Keep up the fantastic work. Love the BLN functionality too.

—was running 'lag free' min set at 384 and max at 1836, juggernaut v2.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
I'm trying to think of the most humble way to say this but my kernel ha been throwing down some seriously high benches. have you seen the linpack score a few pages back? its huge too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] lamlux:
Yes the linpack score was impressive, i can only get 90's, but even still thats fantastic.

Battery life can't wait to test tomorrow.

Previously, I was getting my best results on the 'interactive' governor, so 'lag free' developments are the way to go it seems.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] reocej:
Well mine was @ number 1 with 1880 score on stock kernel until overclock was possible.:( Still number one for stock kernel though.:p Also, I did hit 106 in linpack once.:D This just gets betterer and betterer! Keep up the good work Mr. X!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
I know what you're talking about now.

So the line comes up after pressing power to wake phone up before lock screen, it's like a backwards crt effect.

Wasn't having this with v.o.32.

Doesn't bug me all that much, but it's there when it shouldn't.

This phone is a BEAST!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dungtran88:
after I flash the new kernel, my phone won't charge while its in call. I drain my battery to 0% then plug it in, boot up, call my girlfriend, 1hrs later look at my phone, its still 0%.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasontx:
I had to wipe both caches twice. The first time it didn't work so I did it again and fixed permissions. I doubt fixing permissions did anything with the crt on but now it is unlocking normally again, hope this helps.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rekzer:
Just a question, im trying to optomize batt life and have a few questions

Would setting the sleep off mode to Powersave/conservative with low clocks be a good idea?

Also, if i were to set my main governor to ondemand or something when i need to, is that the same as just running a stock kernel or are those changed to?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hazard99:
My two cents. Is when you have different gov's in sleep you actually will create a little wake lag.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pit_Viper:
That procedure didn't appear to work for me. I'll tinker with it a bit later in order to see what I did wrong (perhaps I'll be able to report back in the event that others have the same issue).

Thanks again!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skadude66:
I can't overclock past 1512MHz, even when I bring the slider to 1836, it isn't sticking..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pit_Viper:
That's the same problem that I've been having with version 0.05. SetCPU (or whatever program you're using) may not have root, despite what SuperUser reports. Try what Mr. X suggested (although it didn't work for me):

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19182703&postcount=295
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
Please try and redownload and install the kernel. something is not right. If you think that you may not have root even though it says you do you can try two tests to verify you do. test one is update su in the superuser app. if there is no root it will fail and show you the log. test two, you can open any terminal emulator and type in su and hit enter, if it gives you # prompt after asking for permissions your rooted. if not then something has got wonky.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cashyftw:
I'm able to OC to 1836 (and it sticks) fine with .5, I probably a permission error.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skadude66:
Just tried updating Superuser and doing an su from Terminal Emulator and both are fine. Not very sure what is going with the OC not sticking.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pellel2:
Ppl don't know how to search. I will give my solution once more I guess. Go to recovery wipe caches and fix permissions. That will fix it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hazard99:
So i installed an app called cpu spy and its apparent that lagfree does not deep sleep. Could someone else confirm this my allowing phone to idle on both lagfree and ondemand

Update. On lagfree unit will clock down to 384 and no less it seems

Edited for error in explanation
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pellel2:
yes thats confirm many pages ago. Change the governor to conservative or something else. Lagfree lets the phone goes to sleep after last update from Mr X it just takes longer for it to go to sleep. Use Interactive governor so far the best results for me.

Hey Mr. X remember that stock T989D kernel you compiled for me. I flashed that in BeastMOD and now it flies. It has the multicore on but for some reason both cores can go down to 192 and noSOD. and I am talking with the original code source of BeastMOD 2.0. I never really changed the source code like merlvin was saying. IDK what is going on now it is so weird.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hazard99:
Mr x how long does it take to go into sleep mode?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skadude66:
I was only reporting what I saw with the new kernel. Tried your advice, nothing changed. It's still set as 1512MHz Max and 384MHz Min. I looked at the kernel info as well and it looks like the same info as v0.04. I flashed the v0.05 kernel so I know I didn't flash the wrong one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pit_Viper:
I tried that, and documented that in my post, as did batvan (perhaps you didn't read the posts). I appreciate your suggestion, though. 'Will play with it some more after work...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pellel2:
sorry my bad i guess it is a hard topic to search anyways

I am just trying to help the community as well as myself. by having better ROMs and Kernels it helps everyone. I was in the SGS2 international before i got my new Hercules but i was too new there to really help anyone. now that I have moved here I am just trying to help. Also, this variants of SGS2 are a really pain in the ass so I gotta pay attention what is going on with these guys. the i9100 was sooooo easy to manipulate. if you really screwed it up it was very easy to fix. these T989 variant is a pain in the ass. well different CPUs and better speed modems so the codes are completely different than I9100
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] hazard99:
If using setcpu shouldnt whatever your highest priority profile take over. Reason is just for testing purposes I have set interactive as my screen off profile and It never seems to go active. that was the same for on demand. I Have been having problems with the way some of this cpu apps function. I decided to go back to setcpu as I have used it the longest and dont tamper with voltages.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Pellel2:
I have a good question. What is the most reasonable time people are looking to run this phone between charges. I ALWAYS read people "bad battery life" but really what is good? I should start a poll with this question to find what is reasonable. I am really happy if I can pull 1.5 days of not charging out of my phone with moderate use WIFI on/off or even two days.

What do you guys think? what is reasonable? maybe this will help the devs get a better timeframe

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skadude66:
Not trying to say that what you're suggesting is wrong, Pellel2, I have never had to flash anything like this before. My Milestone was really easy to flash stuff to, so this is all a learning process for me. Perhaps hazard our yourself could help me out here.
