After some more testing with 3.0.1 i figured out another thing, it seems gokhan fixed another issue by accident ;-)

Since 3.0.1 Gemini app manager is able to block autorun again! Great!

This has been talked about, he would need to mess around a lot with the gpu driver to make it report the time in each state, and at the time he didnt even know where to start, and it was decided that it would add to much overhead/etc to be worth it.

Should say this was talked about back in the GB thread, maybe things have changed, but don't think so.

I use the 2000mAh battery and the lifetime is now (3.0) much better than the rc's.. Used 100-1000, Lulzactive (200mhz displayoff) with noop. Uv -50mv on each..

But 5 hours are still bad. Got in GB over 7. Checked betterbattery, nothing interesting there..

Lets see what gokhan made for us. Love this Kernel!!

Just had the same issue with latest 3.0.1. If you power off the phone and plug it in on AC/USB, it boots.

If you're at 0% battery, it'll bootloop endless.

Gokhan I haven't seen it mentioned but BLN is broken in 3.01. It worked fine for me in v3. In BLN control app it says "disabled". Do I need to copy liblights?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Hannibal226:
Correct!

Hopefully most users read my warning...

Best is not using the newest atm, or u risk this all time!

Hi Gokhan,

I know probably I should try the 3.0.1 first, but in the last 2 days I got 2 SoD when I wake up from sleep with Siyah 3.0.0.

I'm on Wanamlite 10.6 based on LP4, ondemand, sio, no voltage change with underclock to 1000 MHz.

I got this Tasker profile that switch off mobile data, wifi and sync on 00:30 and switch them back on on 04:00. I suspect the SOD happened after Tasker was trying to switch on the Wifi, mobile data, and sync, because sometimes after 3 am I did check the time on my phone and it still worked.

Here is the last_kmsg of the 2 SODs:

yes confirm , turned off phone, turns on after pluging charger and a pluged in phone restarts when you power off.

this can be fairy a ran out of battery phone never starts. cos all the bit first giving charge gone right after plugging and gets off again. right ?

may be an electric shock couse this and also maybe this is about changing usb charging voltage same as ac charge or what ... by the way i charge my phone lots of time in turn off and now its impossible ... rolling back

it was a problem only for samsung roms.

if you are on cm9 or any other aokp based rom you don't have to download again.

I'm running stock Samsung ROM (XXLPS), the latest version of Siyah (3.0.1) & the latest version of extweaks (which updated on the Play store yesterday). When I launch extweaks I now get a blank screen - does anyone else have this issue?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Beaverman33:
Ok, sorted it. I'd originally reset cache & dalvik. Just reset both again and cleared scripts using CWM. All working fine again now.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] radicalgel:
Thanks so much gokhan, the wifi toggle issue is indeed fixed. Just one thing I noticed is that, when I scroll a little and

stop without removing my finger, the screen shivers. I tried to increase the touch sensitivity to 7 but still no luck. Anyway it's not a big deal.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
install OS Monitor and try to see which process is hogging your CPU or generating network traffic on 2G or 3G.

nothing else can cause such a big drain. normally, people can use their phones for at least 4+ hours with screen on & surfing on the net.

if you are losing 10% in 10 minutes your battery will be depleted in less than 2 hours.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I was always testing it while connected to a charger.

yes, you are right. I noticed that shivering as well.

I modified the thresholds a bit more to prevent it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:

so how do u guys find ics+siyah now?

Is it as stable/fast as with gb?

I want to take the leap and go for ics but dont know if IT is ready yet..i heard there are problems..does siyah's kernel fix those?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KixMe:
to me its a well done job right now, no problems sofar.

battery time is comparable to gb, depending on what tweaks you use.

i turned off the 2nd core, and max clock is 800mhz. which gives me a nice battery time (over 1 day). IU responsivenes is great, no hickups or lagging at all.

you should try it :) also keep in mind that cm9 is getting better and better

I have just a very strange thing happened! With the last V3.0.1 on Stock LPS with Domination theme and battery profile selected in CWM on kernel, the battery has gone from 35% to 12% after a reboot of the smartphone.

Note that I had installed "SetCPU" set to "conservative" but on startup reported profile "ondemand" even with the option "Set on boot ' selected. Maybe depends from "SetCPU"?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] blumsen:
hey guys, is there any way of making the phone crash/reboot instead of getting 'stuck' in a way that requires removing the battery? I am playing with OC/UV and for some reason whenever the phone gets stuck like that, it is always on max cpu, and so both gets extremely hot and drains the battery until I notice it.. There must be some way of making it reboot instead?

happy Easter to you all :)

[BUG] Siyah Kernel V3.0.1 ICS - UTF8 in CIFS

[BUG]

CIFS mount with UTF-8 encoding not possible.

[description]

I can't mount any SMB shares in cifsmanager with iocharset=utf8 option. I do need this because I have files with special characters that need UTF8 encoding to display properly.

If mount option iocharset=utf8 is set, cifsmanager will output "Can not access a needed library."

[possible cause]

I believe this is due to a missing kernel module, nls_utf8.ko.

[suggested fix]

If possible, please compile/provide this file with your kernel.

[temporary solution]

Delete the utf8 mount option or comment it out by putting a '#' in front, ie '#iocharset=utf8' until a fix is found.

[setup]

- CM9 nightly (2012-04-04)

- Siyah Kernel 3.0.1

on Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100

Thx & best regards,

Mr_KnStr

But, now com.android.defcontainer hogging the cpu until the phone is laggy... anyone can help me please?

The rest is OK...

@GM: If you could (please) include an interface to adjust screen gamma/temperature in ExTweaks (like in CM9)?

Because since ICS, my screen become blue tinted, very blue, worse than with GB... Been using SoftScreeTuner for GB, but can't do it in ICS...

Or anyone got any suggestion? Other than screen filtering program like Screen Adjuster, since its slowing the phone a lot...

Guys,could anyone please check something for me?

When doing a nandroid backup,it doesn't seem to save the apps that are in the external storage.In the backup folder,the android_secure.vfat.tar folder(Or whatever its name is) is some kilobytes large only,while I have many apps in my external storage.I've already lost some apps and had to restore via TiBu,which still gives me some problems in ICS.

Thanks in advance guys. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gabx:
Maybe silly suggest, but as for dual booting, have you ever think using Linux GRUB?

I think it coule be possible to compile it for ARM device, and its usage is quite straightforward.

Just an idea...maybe stupi d!!

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tolis626:
No no no no...It's not stupid at all!I mean,if it can be done.

GRUB is built exactly for that purpose,so it's probably the best solution,and by far better than dirty hacks that may be needed for proper dual-booting. ;)

Let's see what Gokhanmoral has to say about this...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] elite_gamer04:
Finally did an update to CM9 07/04 Build and figured I would give Siyah v3.0.1 a whirl :) - been 2hours thus far and no problems (I <3 gokhanmoral haha).

I've come from stock Kernel so did the following:

1. Flashed via .ZIP

2. Cleared Cache, Dalvik and Battery Stats

3. Rebooted Recovery

4. Set to 'Battery Profile'

5. Rebooted into CM9 and downloaded ExTweaks

6. Reset Fuel Gauge

Is that all that needs to be done to OPTIMAL battery performance? Any other suggestions? CM9 stock I was getting really bad battery even with <2hr on-screen at work.

Cheers!

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dee163:
You can try the battery profile.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bala_gamer:
man, he has clearly mentioned that it is already set to "battery profile"

@tolis

in gb too it was the same, none of my nandroid backups backed up my external sd apps, a few to mention as examples are fifa12,nfs hot pursuit, talking tom series and some more.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kwerdenker:
You are sure about this? I also never got the secure storage restored with a nandroid, even in the gingerbread days. Didn't bother me that much since I restore everything with TB anyways.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] samoelito:
does the new version still have problems with 3g? Cause with rc3 i had problemas with the 3g, it loses connection every time i get to a place with no signal and get back. I had to restart everytime i wanted to reconnect to 3g.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tolis626:
No,I'm quite sure that Gingerbread was fine.Plus,I had about a gig and half large android_secure.vfat.tar files in my nandroids.

What's strange is that,although apps are installed in external storage,the android_secure folder in both internal and external sd cards is empty.Shouldn't the files be there?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] zaphod777:
Wjchen0 has been nice enough to compile a 3.0.1 version for us. Also I created a zip file that flashes the ntt 3.0.1 and the ntt modem and a patch to get the compass to point the right direction.

That way you can install cm9 and then flash that and you are set.

sorry if this has been asked but does bln not work with this kernel on miui?

running ics b5 from rohit with this kernel and it's really good but can't get bln to work. I'm not sure whether it's compatibility or something missing from the miui rom.

any help from anyone would be great. thanks.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sgunf:
Well I finally decided to jump from MIUI SP GB with Siyah 2.6.14 to MIUI V4 and Siyah 3.0.1.

Started from scratch, wiped data, cache, dalvik cache, formatted system partition and flashed kernel cleaning script (maybe not necessary but not harmful).

Installed MIUI V4 Italian version (I included italian pack in rom before flashing, thanks to Nexus Lab!), then flashed kernel via Odin.

I just installed USB Mass storage (from this post) to enable mass storage file transfer and "Reboot menu" from riceknight to direct reboot in download/recovery/bootloader mode(4-way reboot mode not present in standard MIUI).

Not kernel related: I had to change play store version via DroidExplorer because version provided by the rom FCed (installed v3.5.15)

Everything I tried is working fine: phone, data, wifi, usb mass storage/OTG/MHL, BT, GPS, camera, media scanner, BLN.

Now let's go with tweakings, and monitor for wakelocks and battery consumption!

@GM: in my opinion you have almost reached your GB kernel level; from now everything will be a welcome add-on. Really THANK YOU!

@mrbuzz1967: starting from scratch, BLN works for me on original MIUI, as I wrote.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rlorange:
Gokhan: I've suggested this before and now that siyah core functions are stable maybe we could revisit this idea again.

Samsung has removed native support for mouse/keyboards through OTG/USB. I read somewhere that the code is still in the ICS kernel source but disable however maybe this would be better.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1468531

This has been implemented in SGS1 custom kernels such as Devil and allows OTG on this device which never had native support from Samsung. As far as I can gather it should be ready to port over to the sgs2 with little drama. Maybe it was in GB kernels?

Also on this same territory I saw this article about USB sound support already in the cm9 kernel allowing an external sound card to provide the DAC coming from the SGS2 via USB. Since a generic USB sound card is so cheap this would allow amazing quality audio to come from our devices which lack the amazing Wolfson DAC chip and Voodoo sound which utilized it to maximum potential.

http://www.head-fi.org/t/604479/good-news-about-android-phone-supports-digital-audio-output.

Finally: while eagerly waiting for Supercurios upcoming screen control app/driver I have installed his "snap shot" version which was being tested in GB roms but not compatible without adding a file into the kernel. The app says:

Missing file: /etc/mdnie_tune_bypass_mode

Are you familiar with this add can it be added so that the app can be used?

As always amazing work from a grateful user who always gets a bit excited when I download and flash the latest Siyah :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rlorange:
Ah yes I worked out the reason for this. Its the same mounting changes in recovery that cause the sdcard to be called internal storage instead of sdcard.

I don't think it matters but if you do want to wipe Android secure you need to flash the cm9 kernel and then reboot straight into recovery from siyah recovery to take you to the recovery that comes with cm9. In this recovery the standard mounting systems work so you can factory reset now and Android secure will be correctly wiped or do a nandroid restore and fingers crossed it will restore it.

You may have to flash cm9 kernel BEFORE you do your nandroid backup and then again when you restore. I've not tested it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] veyka:
Our phones are nothing like a "normal" desktop pc, I think adapting GRUB to work would be harder than dual booting via whatever method is planned.

The big thing is the total lack of standardisation in the ARM market, at least as far as things such bootloaders, or basically anything.

about grub:

yes, I know it and I love it.

but it will be an overkill for our device.

you will only have a very simple option: boot the first or the second ROM. you don't have a lot of storage and you cannot repartition your device easily. you have a uniform bootloader and kernel. therefore, the only thing we need to modify is the initramfs.
