uploading latest beta (I hope) to http://d-h.st/users/siyah/testing

changelog is at http://www.gokhanmoral.com/

if everything is ok I will release v4.0 tomorrow

please test it or you will have to wait for at least a week for the bugs to be fixed.

now I have samsung 4.0.3 and cm10 on my wife's phone and I can spend some time tomorrow evening if you find and report bugs.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] PedroMRP:
Until now the only bug that I notice is when turn the screen off by pressing the power button first appears the lockscreen and then the screen turns off.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
Haven't found anything yet. This kernel is by far the smoothest I've seen so far.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
it is a side effect of the 500ms delay just before fb suspend that was introduced in cm10 kernel by codeworkx as a workaround to get crt animation working.

I use that delay only on cyanogenmod based ROMs.

I could not think of a better way to fix that problem but I am sure he will come up with a better solution on the crt animation side.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] PedroMRP:
I don't use crt animation and i'm using cm9 I have cm10 as second rom but didn't test it. In the previous version this delay don't happen neither on cm9 neither on cm10.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lyndonguti:
Not a problem the important thing is the crt effect .. even it is delay way more time lol..tnx

@pedro that is not really a problem do you think so my friend?:)

Hello Gokhan. Congratulations on a job well done.

I am on CMX 0805.

I noticed that with 4.0 beta3 release my processor uses mainly the frequency of 800 MHz instead of the maximum set to 1200 MHz.

Still not functioning optimally, the brightness automatically.

Thanks for everything
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BlackRainX:
No problem here.. except that CRT off animation

But OCed.. and the phone with JB is pretty snappy :)

PS.. added you on FB some time ago.

Sano Shaker here.. battery, signal everything is all right for me.. i hope for vpll GPU freq :)

EDIT : mine jumps to 1600MHz without a single problem.. so problem should be on your side :P
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] robertobsc:
Ho gokhan!

Question: version 3.5.2 had a greater size, if I remember, was another compression for faster booting. Will you remove this in the 4.0?

Ultra exceptional work by the way!

;)

Thank you!

Beta 3 runs great on CM 10. Since I started using Kernel 4.0 from beta1 to now beta3 I haven't encountered any signal drops which haunt CM 10 Experimental users on stock kernel and 3.5.2 Siyah kernel among others. It looks very promising so far.

For me lowest brightness level using autobrightness is lower on 4.0 than it was on 3.5.2.

CM 10 runs very smooth and snappy on 4.0. All sensors work well.

On beta1 I had 1 or 2 hot reboots - it the only serious problem. I'll be watching beta3 if this happens again.

Well the governor you choosen probbly doing its work to maintain speed and battery...im gonna be happy to that infact my smooth scaling is set to 800...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cybernetus:
The man of the kernel topics :)

Hello @lyndonguti , now you are using Siyah or Dorinmax on your phone ?

I will try to use Dorinmax today and tomorrow :)

But ... my first option, I believe, is the new version of siyah :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lyndonguti:
Hi mate nice to see you here well i was in dorimanx (not the latest) but since the led issue in siyah is fixed i decided to go back here and see if the power of this kernel is more massive now based in what im using this ofcourse....
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cybernetus:
Yeah, I see. I will download the new siyah beta and I test this kernel tomorrow.

Today and tomorrow are the days of Dorinmax.

I belive after this tests, I get the new stable version of Siyah.

On Dorinmax you had a good battery life on ParanoidAndroid ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] illuminato 67:
Hello Gokhan.

Sorry to bother you.

I am on CMX and Siyah 4.0 beta 3.

I have already said that the most commonly used frequency is 800 MHz I noticed, using Panel System. Apk, that the two cores working at 100% with a frequency not exceeding 800 MHz

This problem only occurs on startup.

Then the frequency increases to 1200 and after the frequencies normally vary in relation to the requests and the two cores are working fine.

In ExTweaks:

- CPU Hotplug (default)

- Linux kernel default

- Smooth scaling level 1200

- Max dual core CPU lock mod

- Sched_MC 0

- CPU count 18 steps

- Governor pegasusq

- Scaling max freq 1200

- Freq scaling 200 min

- I / O scheduler CFQ

Do you have an explanation for this phenomenon?

This is the normal behavior of CPU Hotplug??

Thanks again for your great effort.

Edit: Same behavior with 3.5.2
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lyndonguti:
You can (also prove that) by using cpu spy in the market ..it can show what frequenly steps you are using....try it

Anyway if it happends mostly in start up it is just needed to power up the phone to be easily use
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] illuminato 67:
Already done and confirms the data.

Yours is a valid assumption.

Thank you.

Edit: It is clear on the image i have posted

Edit 2: Same behavior with 3.5.2
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] marcelser:
exFAT support?

Hi Gökhan and sorry bothering you but I wonder something: Some time ago there was exFAT support also on S2. I see that S3 kernels still have exFAT but on S2 you removed the "exFAT mess" as you stated in your changelog. Any chance that exFAT will be re-introduced on S2 kernel anytime soon or will it be exclusively for S3 roms?

Thank you very much if you could give a short answer to this question and by the way great work on 4.0 beta 3 so far I have no problems on latest CM9.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rumirand:
I am using latest version on cm10. KimI can confirm that works without any issues.

Enviado desde mi GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] desean:
Gokhanmoral mentioned before that he will not introduce exfat support to s2 due to licensing concerns. The exfat modules on s3 are proprietary modules that Samsung paid fees for introducing exfat on the s3.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] marbulas:
I flashed 4.0 b3 on CM9 RC2 and I can't find any bugs in use :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] robertobsc:
Really strange. I got this behavior also, using pegasusq. I played batman for around 1 hour. I checked cpu spy. Take a look:

No issues thus far except BLN is not working with 4.0-beta3.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Crescendo Xenomorph:
@GM: Maybe you could add some of the i9300 feature that already stable to our old beloved i9100?

Like STweaks, newer Mali driver, ZRAM support, exfat support, stereo expansion gain, bass boost, hi-fi play, dac direct, anti-jitter, mono downmix settings to name a few...

Thanks for your constant support... ^^
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Obagleyfreer:
Does anyone know if the Siyah kernel for S2 supports MHL?

I really want to try this kernel but I also use my phone connected to the TV a lot.

Thank you for your help :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] alex__sp:
First of all TV-out support is not kernel related.It is ROM related.

If the ROM is based on AOKP then TV-OUT will not work,they still haven't added MHL support.But if the ROM is an official samsung rom then TV-OUT will work no mather what kernel you are running.

What ROM are you running?

hmm CPU is okay here.. what is the point of setting 18 cpu steps?

PS.. we already got headphone amplification

ps.. but cant see taken picture. problem of cm10 or siyah?

3.5.2 was based on 3.0.38.. why is 4.0 beta 3 on 3.0.15 (samsung stock)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bkjugg:
It is a modified update7 sources. (Am I right?)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] jlevy73:
On 4.0 beta 3 with cm10, no problems with seeing taken photos. Might want to wipe cache and dalvik, fix permissions and try again.

On 4beta1 and beta3, all worked beside led touch light. On beta1 it worked on both rr 2.6.1 and 3.0.1. But on beta3, touch light always off on rr 2.6.1 but always on on rr 3.0.1 and can't be set on extweats on led timeout on beta3. To me beta1 was better on beta3. Waiting the next release. Thank GM.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] marbulas:
How about changing cpu governor and hotplug settings when phone gets deep-sleep(screen off situation) and wakeup(screen on situation) with ExTweaks?

(ex : scr_off = second core off and lulzactive governor, scr_on = second core on and pegasusq governor)

Already I've changed with Tasker but Tasker consumes battery too much :(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nihilista:
Use Setcpu and make profiles for that...

But its not much battery save, cause if screen is off and phone at deepsleep, it consumes less energy, i use pegasusq and its the best, no need to use other governors if screen off....

---------- Post added at 12:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------

I have a little question, i see "enabled swap and zram options in config" in changelog, isn't it useless to have zram and swap with s2, cause it has much memory and most of the time ram is not fully used? On PC i learned, that unused ram is useless ram ;)

Maybe for RAM-eating games, or am i not right?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] coolstory:
I have big problem!

At 3.5.2 Syiah i used the phone normally. I locked it yesterday and today it dont wake and dont show he works. After applied charger phone do nothing. Please help!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Did you try taking the battery out and putting it back in??

To be honest, you need to give a better explanation of what state your device was in for us to be able to help you.

Latest CM9 nightly running with B6 no issue's so far.

Also BLN working properly (i have buttons light allways off..) dident test with light's on last time i flipped that one i had to reflash cm9 with wipe to get it working again..

Battery life is ok i do use the extended samsung battery for extra power so a little bit more drain issent noticed quick :D (recomben the battery.. €19.99 original samsung).

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bleuxeon:
I repost it here since I have no luck in CM9+siyah thread :

I have noticed something weird and I realy don't know if its CM9 or Siyah related :

at least 3 of my apps (namely : Antutu, OpenSignal maps, Speed Test) are not realy closed when you exit them.

I know that Android keep in cache apps that were previously launched and that it's a normal behavior.

But the problem here is that exited apps continue to use CPU ressources!

I use System Tuner task manager to show me real time CPU charge per apps and it cleary shows CPU activity for those closed apps.

Something is also strange Speed Test and OpenSignal maps use both the GPS.

After closing them the GPS sometime remains active!

Gokhanmoral could you please state if this could be a Siyah's bug or if it's more likely a CM9 bug?

Thanks

EDIT #4 :

Some apps that use CPU even after have been closed (need to kill them to stop CPU eating)

-Antutu Benchmark

-GPS Status

-OpenSignal maps

-Network Signal Info

-ES Task Manager

-Chrome Beta

-more to come...

Try to measure the battery voltage. If your level is below 1.3 V might be why does not activate the cell and does not start even with the power supply!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] robertobsc:
Well, do you have another cel that your battery fits?

If yes you could put the battery in other cel and charge it. If no you could buy another battery. Maybe the problem is the battery not the phone.

Have you also tried putting it in download mode?

- Remove battery and wait about 1m

- Put it back in

- Press VolDown+Home+Power, hold all 3 keys and check if something is displayed

If this takes you to download mode just flash any kernel with Odin.

It it's indeed a "battery very low" issue, does anyone know if leaving it connected to the charger for a longer period will eventually start charging the battery, as some older phones used to?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hyperbolic:
Great kernel I love it! :)

Only one small issue,I am on Wanam 12.3 ROM, BEFORE I installed ExTweaks, the auto brightness was VERY responsive, for example when I cover the sensor (next to the front camera) the brightness would go low

immediately

and when I took off the cover the brightness would go

immediately

back to when it started.

Now, it doesn't response just stays the same EVEN though the brightness is on auto.

Any solution for that ?

Thank you.

Ok, something is seriously wrong with pegasusQ second core managment. I checked it on CM9 and CM10. I've reflashed Siyah many times (mainly 3.5.2 and 4.0b3) and problem still exists.

On 4.0b3 when second core kicks in, it won't turn off so easly. Even if system has nothing to do, fraquency is on 200Mhz, second core is ON. Eventyally it turns off but only after about 1min of not being busy (200Mhz all the time). When i change governor to let say - ondemand with default hot plugging, it works just ok. Second core turns on when busy and when cpu isnt busy - instantly turns off. On Siyah 3.5.2 pegasusQ second core managment works pretty same as hot plugging. Only pegasusQ on 4.0b3 has that weird daly on turning scond core off.

Btw.

Both radio and BLN works just fine on CM9 and CM10.
