[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Lun4cy:
switched to ics and this kernel (3.3.2) couple weeks back...came from hyperdroid androidmeda with red pill kernel / neak and since the change my device gets very hot in games, when recharging, using gps and so on.

wasn't like this ever before so i assume its this kernel.

even with underclock/undervolt this occurs.

also the battery drain is massive compared to my previous setup.

wifi/3g sucks the battery dry like never before.

is there a version of siyah with better battery performance?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] JimboJoe:
It's been reminded several times that Gokhan wouldn't fix it unless someone pointed him to a solution...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hawkerpaul:
Sale, the excellent developer of NeatROM got the brick bug when developing his LQ5 release. So we will be without his many updates for a few weeks I should expect. :(

Gokhan, do you know what could have caused this on 4.0.4? I know its the CAP_ERASE issue, but he had a cf-root kernel on, and I cant believe chanfire making this mistake. I'm just concerned there may be something more to it than setting CAP_ERASE=0?

Love to here your thoughts on this Gokhan. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Chainfire doesn't make any mistake - he is providing kernels which Samsung made...

If you choose to use a faulty, cap_erase one, then that is the user's fault.

Samsung is shipping these defective kernels! Chainfire isn't modifying this part of it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
this is quite true.

in the sources I compile for s2, I disable CAP_ERASE but Samsung does not disable it sometimes. I do not understand their reason. maybe they are trying to brick all the potentially brickable devices and replace motherboards before they close the production line :)

you are responsible of searching for/testing if CAP_ERASE is disabled or not...

for the update: I could not get the cam running by mixing&matching different sources. we had the same problem when I rebased my sources on korean kernel and then entropy told me that there are some fimc related changes which prevents the camera to work. so, I thought that changes would help this time but they did not. I tried different versions (update5, update7 and sgs3) either I had a FC or working cam with black screen.

so, I will have to wait for the next source drop for that.

I made some changes on the kernel.

tungstwenty sent me a really good patch about wakelocks.

you will be able to track the deleted wakelocks.

I cherry-picked wifi driver and changes from cm9. also enabled/disabled some config options. some of them were to get exfat working but then I changed my mind and gave it up because it can cause some license problems to run those modules on s2. and also there are some tiny tini tweaks in pegasusq...

oh and linux 3.0.36... (means not much but some of you care about it as I receive a lot of pms requesting merges with the mainstream)

I am planning to release it tomorrow because I want to test it a little and see if there is any problem.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] johnbeetee:
And will 4x-click-home-button mdnie negative be configurable?

At least using kmemhelper?

(don't forget to remove static define...)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
Yes I forgot to mention those.

MDNIe negative effect will be configurable through a module param and the rest will be configurable with kmemhelper.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hawkerpaul:
I just re-read my post and realised that it may have been wrongly perceived. I wasnt suggesting chainfire made the mistake. The way I meant it to read was that I cant believe chainfire would have made this mistake. :o

So Gokhan, it looks like you will need the 4.0.4 sources before you can tackle the camera problem. As a rule of thumb, how long is it after leaked firmwares come out before the kernel sources make an appearance?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sinancetinkaya:
Gökhan, what about just fixing the code part to have exfat (fuse, module etc) and leaving us compiling the kernel?

I think we'll responsible in that case, am I right?

Video bug(black screen)

I was using SiyahKernel v3.3.2 kernel with stock ics 4.0.3 and its working fine, now i recently flashed leaked stock ics 4.0.4 (I9100XXLQ5_I9100OXALQ5_OXA) and again installed same version of this kernel. but now video player and also mx player dont show video(any format) just sound coming with black screen. it just display video frame when i touch menu button. MX player showing video in sw mode, i think this kernel is not compatible with new stock rom because stock kernel is working with video player, please help me
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] yahyoh:
maybe gokh should ask codeworkx ;) for dsp thingy
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hawkerpaul:
There are issues with video, camera and bluetooth on 4.0.4

Gokhan can't begin to look into fixing these until he gets his hands on the 4.0.4 sources.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mad_Rick:
Hello guys,

I am running on NeatRom Lite v1.2 (XWLPG) and want to give SiyahKernel v3.3.2 a try...

Should I use a kernel cleaning script and just flash Siyah?

What do you guys recomende?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] arief347:
Yeah it just same question in my mind..how do you thing guys?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] superlik:
Yes you can do that or just wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] #illidan:
Well they say that you only need to flash a kernel cleaning script when you switch to another kernel but it's not necessary if your just flashing a newer version of the same kernel. Wipes also are done just to be on the safe side but personally I've never flashed any kernel cleaning script or ever wiped any caches when flashing different kernels & I've never faced any problems so it's basically upto you.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Mad_Rick:
I am currently running on "CF-ROOT LPG" that's why i was wondering if i needed a cleaning script.

Seems you changed your mind from yesterday... I assume you didn't flash ChecROM? Yes it has been a disaster for many people and a very costly lesson. The only happy people are Samsung service.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
Sorry bro. It was planned to be DK kernel, so clearly he would disable mmc_cap_erase. But seems that CR team aren't the same anymore. I flashed, didn't like at all [flashed but after that flashed CM9-odin, without entering recovery]. Saw paradoxxx and some other guy's post and totally agree. Just lies from CR. If they were "stable maniacs" like they were some time ago, they wouldn't release using LQ5 as base. OK, no more off topic.

Gokhan, have you had updated kernel sources for 4.0.4 yet?

I assume 3.3.3 will not address the camera/video/bluetooth issues on this base yet?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] faraaz:
The changelog for v3.3.3 is already online:

SiyahKernel-S2-v3.3.3

Posted on July 8, 2012 by admin

Changelog:

pegasusq fixes and tweaks

added cfs tweaks settings to ExTweaks (samsung default, linux kernel default and thunderbolt script defaults)

added Tungstwenty’s implementation that let’s us see deleted wakelock details (optional in ExTweaks)

cherry-picked some wifi changes/fixes from cm9 repo

added mdnie negative effect toggle to ExTweaks (by Tungstwenty)

and some other tiny changes…

Linux 3.0.36
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] SPBoss:
What are cfs tweaks? :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] faraaz:
CFS is a scheduler (Completely Fair Scheduler). For detailed information you can check: http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/scheduler/sched-design-CFS.txt

Nope, no plans as of yet, I have a tablet right now :)

@af974, no probs :)

@All, that's what happens when people flash ROMs from "devs" who don't understand this stuff... I didn't update my ROM to 4.0.4, because pure and simply, it's not ready! I wasn't happy with any previous Samsung ICS ROM, and there's no way I'd update to a release with the erase bug... #justsayin

Anyway we are derailing gm's thread... :) Interesting stuff on the 3.3.3 list
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
They knew the risk. And I was talking about every leaked fw. Even if stock. Better not download leaked stuff. Anyway, let's stop with ndev stuff...

---------- Post added at 02:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 PM ----------

Is there any change to improve performance? Maybe those tiny changes. I don't see any other that can. Linux.36 won't, CFS I don't think so...

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] maddoguk:
I flashed the new kernel and my phone locked up after boot. Booted back into recovery, cleared both the cache and rebooted with the same freeze after boot.

Flashed 3.3.2 back and all working well again. Tried again with a different download but still the same.

Only used the CWM version.

Any ideas?

Update: flashed via mobile Odin and all working well.

but here the topic is siyah :)

with 3.3.3 i think gokhan have a lot users back on his kernel, after fluxi quits his work.

trying this,too!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fr3d0x:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] alex__sp:
The kernel feels good and I know it's too soon to test battery but my monitor widget pro shows that since I flashed the kernel even with all the connections off it's still consuming 10%/h or more whereas before with fluxxi it was consuming less than 2%/h while inactive.

I know some of you guys don't like fluxxi but I'm just saying.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bajee11:
We just told you, you cannot judge battery this fast. Even with your monitor thingy, it is not reliable. I've done different extensive kernel tests mate and trust me.. You don't want to rely on these results. Let it settle for at least one cycle and monitor your BBS for wakelocks.
