Sooo,

As I said I tried the speedmodkernel today and I have now with 5% a displaytime of 4h (running 11h).

Will test NEAK one tomorrow and if it also Blurrs at 4 hours displaytime I will go back to Syiah and change ROM :) Cuz then I know its not kernel related ;)

Thank you for the rc6, I will try it out in 2 Days with cm9 after testing the other silly kernel ;)

Send from my SII ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sefrcoko:
Same here. Excellent battery life again with RC6. Everything is smooth, no problems undervolting, and loving dual booting :D. Thanks for your hard work Gokhan.

Running D4 6.0 + WanamLite 11, Siyah RC6, and LP6 modem.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I have reuploaded rc6 with a possible fix for HID (usb mouse or keyboard) crash on disconnect (the patch is ported from kevinh's patches for galaxy tab).

I hope it fixes that nasty bug.

please test and report if you use usb HID device.

my eyes are already closing (12:30am)

g'night...

EDIT: I forgot to tell you that newly uploaded rc6 is based on 3.0.28...

I can't get a good results in cf bench. I know it is benchmark only but I feel lagy in dungeon hunter 3 and I test to get better results.

I always get about 6000

Do you have and good setting?

Od performance script get lower results
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Shm33g:
I meant to add that I pretty much just use ondemand + deadline. I tested lulzactive + cfq but not long enough to make a definite judgement, I did notice that the latter combination seems more performance based but retains good battery efficiency, though ondemand is always rockstable and a good fallback in any circumstance.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] adamski123:
Huh its weird cos I haven't had good batt life at all on siyah since rc4
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] imileimile:
Tried the way you described, and with different mouse/keyboard. Mouse is getting power, "lights up" but it is not being recognized. I will try tomorrow using powered hub in case power is the issue. Usb stick is working flawless on the other hand.

Just noticed GM issued updated rc6 ill try it now.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rlorange:
Yeah I am aware of that but why can't the file be changed to create a new table. Like for example the undervolting equivalent? I'm guessing it's hard coded by the kernel?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bleuxeon:
For me idle battery drain started when I went from rc3 to rc5 so I didn't tested rc4.

I will let my phone alone tonight (cose sometime if I wake up in the night I cant resist to wake it up to see battery stats:D) to compare to rc3 that was realy good for me : nearly 4 days with 2h30 with screen on!

How can I mount my 500gb external harddisk ntfs ? I plugged it to my sgs2 with rc6 but nothing happens.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rlorange:
You will need external power for that! You can buy a USB Y cable which will power your drive... whether or not it will mount is another matter
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kem1337:
Can i mount ntfs external sd too?

wanam v11.1 siyah v3.1rc6
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kero^:
It has external power. I plugged it with micro usb to usb plug.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] smitna:
This is also my experience as well with older siyah kernel versions for GB. The right order is very important otherwise the phone will "freeze"!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rlorange:
Oh nice one! Hmmm can't help with mounting sorry. Maybe try one of the mounting root apps on the market.

Hi. Does anyone know what is the process called kworker?? My better battery stats shows that kworker made up 90% of the amount of processes that I have from kworker/0:1 all the way to kworker/0:26! WTH!!

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tolis626:
Firstly,I have no idea why,but I'm getting A LOT of kernel panics lately,out of the blue most of the time.I've already looked fear in the eyes and thrice and flashed different bootloaders,but no,it insists it wants to panic!Any ideas?

Secondly,with dual boot working like a charm,and seeing that some time ago the idea of dual booting was published in the portal,I think we should vote for this thread to get more publicity.It deserves it. ;)

EDIT:Does anyone feel the phone is quite smoother with the new rc6(the 3.0.28 one)?Last one felt jerky.This one is more or less spot on,like what I remembered from 3.0.1.Awesome! :D

Although making it configurable is the best option me thinks... ;)

The latest rc6 breaks wifi connection, after flashing this version can't turn on the wifi.

I'm using the latest codework's test build.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Badassian:
i actually feel like the touch is lot more finicky in rc6. 3.0.1 was a lot better.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hellsgod:
With the latest Test Build you are not able to flash a custom Kernel. If you do, you break wifi and some other things. its because the kernel is build by the buildbot and the modules are moved to /system/lib/modules.

hells
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] JAG131990:
Has anyone else noticed the problem with messages.apk.

Seems that if you are in conversation with someone and reply then shut screen off. When you open phone to reply when you get a message if you dont exit out of messages and go back in it will just let you type but you cant see what you are typing and it will not work.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] xfitc:
yea i have had this problem. This has also cause me random freezes and a couple reboots
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] joyman77:
The kernel is very appreciated.

Korea SGS2 supported? Is there any plan to support?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
GK, it seems that the CM devs have taken some steps to improve CM9 which unfortunately breaks custom kernels, is this fixable or is it insurmountable?

WIFI do not work over CM9 last nighty

Hi GK,

Flash last version (rc6) over last nighty of CM9 (20120419), wifi can not turn on. Pls look into this bug.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] veyka:
Try reading the thread before you post.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
It's not the fault of the kernel, it a change that was made by CM9 devs, read my above questions to GK

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] marcosxd:
This was happening to me and I was getting frustrated, I rebooted a couple of times and it is working now... not sure if I reboot again it will get stuck again :confused:

EDIT: lol I was on CM kernel, didn't flash back rc6 after flashed the rom, I think I'm gonna stay a little longer with cm kernel to compare battery life.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Crescendo Xenomorph:
Off topic: may I ask for suggestion regarding Wifi?

My Wifi keeps turning off while standby and the settings inside (always/power only/never) doesn't give any effect. I have set it to always, but it still keep turning off while on standby. Some ppl in xda suggest that it's actually never and set it to never will keep the wifi turned on, but still it doesn't work.

It keeps turning off no matter what my settings are.

Does USB - DAC support will be implement? I can be a Guinea pig if it does need one for closed testing. Looking forward to this and thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Josuhu:
V3.1rc6 will become a long run kernel for me. It is rock solid.

- Performance Quadrant: Lulzactive 4100

- Performance in use: Fluent

- Battery deep sleep: in 9h lost 5%

- Battery in normal use: Two days easily

- Phone temperature in heavy use: Normal warm. No heating

- Stability: Zero problems

- Over all: Awesome

My Rom and Kernel experiences come by in use testing.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] JAG131990:
I dont know what is happening anymore..

Everytime i nearly get my phone all sorted something else goes wrong. I think I really miss the old gingerbread days now. Google has gone backwards with ICS or something.

I got rid of my wakelock for RILJ on these new versions except that now I am getting GoogleNetworkLocator and Exchange Services wakelocks, I can't really live with either turning google services off or my Exchange account off. Yet my battery life continues to suffer. eh

Flash(odin) stock Rom >>> than your rom >>> than rc6

New start+new bootloader = bugless phone / 100% rom&kernel joy :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sorg:
I'm glad to see 3.0.15 kernel is back :)

It's better to work with verified and stable kernel version than struggle through incompatibilities of newer and not exactly better kernel builds.

i hope, Gokhan will continue to work with 3.0.15 kernel.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mrxd:
errr rc6 is 3.0.28 .... :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
those are not kernel related.

you can disable location services, gps and exchange to get rid of those application wakelocks.

turning off location services doesn't mean turning off google services altogether.

and I repeat, this is not kernel related.

users should not leave posts about all their problems to this kernel thread because most of others think they are kernel problems. the number of people doing this is greater than the number of people answering them.

and having everything enabled while having a great battery life is something like searching "beautiful and devoted". in human world, there are some exceptions but in android world "it is not out yet".
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
Completely agree. I already have 4 hrs screen time with 8hrs up time on this kernel and I've all that **** turned off and no wake locks.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] andro6600:
Hi,

i got a terrible drain with rc6 last nigh! For about 9 hours sleeptime, battery drops from 91% to 68%!!!??? But nothing awakes the phone! See the pics, wifi is off, sinc off, 3g on. In BBS i can't see any wakelocks, but maybe i misread the stats.All kernel settings are defaults, and i use 2D GPU rendering.

Please, someone tell me, is this kernel releated or my battery is gonner or what? Some people report incredible battery life, with over 4-5 housr screen on time, but for me, i never see more than 2:30 -3 hours. This battery drain is driving me crazy! I am on stock XWLP4, wiped everything, reset ExTweaks profiles, fuel gauge chip, and the result is This!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] JAG131990:
I did not say it is kernel related. I said it is ICS related and comparing my experience with gingerbread. I realise it's not the kernel but the OS instead.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] snark_be:
The first release of Siyah 3.1rc6 was based on 3.0.15.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] julle131:
Hello. I'm here to post about the usb otg. With the new rc6, the mouse works. I had freezes in about every ~2 seconds, but can be because of the rom (foxhound psychomantis). Thank you for the work. Even xbox360 controller "booted" when i plugged it in, but it is obvious that kernel/rom doesn't have drivers for it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mrxd:
Yes, it has been discussed previously but changes like this would be much more visible (just a suggestion not a request) if major.minor.patch semantic versioning was observed. Although it is aimed more at the API level, it could be useful here as well. But either way, I'm very happy with the hard work and progress that gokhan has made and in which ever way he chooses to do releases in the future.

RC6 - Take 2

Hi

anyone has a copy of the TAR edition.? (Rc6 - take2)

The website is down :-(

/Cokeman
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Crescendo Xenomorph:
I think you're at the same boat as me. In my fiance's S2 with the same cloned (I nandroided my S2 and restored back to my fiance's), my fiance's can sustain about 8 hours nonstop usage. But in my S2, its only 4 hours.

When I swapped the battery, I got the same 8 hours usage and my fiance's only about 4 hours with my battery, so.... you know...

I think my battery is goner since I always charge it incorrectly. I think its battery charge cycle related. Got to get new battery.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] snark_be:

Sorry, I only have the CWM version.

With Siyah 3 on ICS whenever I try to lower the voltages (only by 50 each), the phone freezes shortly after that. On Gingerbread and Siyah 2 I could undervolt a lot more. Is this not really possible any more on ICS or does anyone else have another idea?

Just don't think about it. It's still possible but never saved much battery anyway.

mount point default have changed in CM9.

emmc is now your internal sdcard

sdcard is now your old emmc, or external sdcard. In fact, it is the way it was supposed to be, and will be now the default behavior.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bgx:
As far as I know the change is in the framework not on kernel side! Correct me if I'm wrong!

USB mouse issue

Hi all,

I'm running CM9 nightly.

Just flashed the siyah kernel rc6.

I find that there are some issues with the mouse.

All 3 button (left, right and middle) give the same result while clicking. i.e., it has the effect of a finger touch. The right button does not act as 'back'. Scrolling with middle button works though.

Anyone else having this issue?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Industrial_chickens:
FYI for latest and future codeworkx and CM9 builds
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Appumon123:
Voltage settings

Also, in the voltage control app i can only find voltage setting till 1400Mhz.. along with the mouse button issues.. something seems wrong here.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] julle131:
Me. Did you have random freezes? Icthink i should get a logcat, so Gokhanmoral could fix it (if he has time and motivation, as this is not the most important thing.) Also, does anyone know if the rom affects to this?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] almaalma74:
hmm, your exact experiences based on first 5-6hrs using?

(X hr = post time - release time)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mekhonte:
i wish i knew! But i can check on my second ROM.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rauschkugl:
Nothing is wrong here. 1400MHz is Max.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tolis626:
Yep,I can confirm that's the case.The mouse works,then stops,then works again.I tried to talk about it earlier,but well,no one seems to have noticed. :p

Also,another thing that I noticed.Does anyone here use Sixaxis Controller app?For those who don't,it's an app that makes us able to use the PS3's controller with our phones.The controller gets paired either via a PC utility or directly on the phone using a USB cable and the app itself.I didn't try the PC solution yet,but when I try to pair it via the app,CRACK! it gives me a kernel panic almost instantly.And these goddamn kernel panics seem to happen all too often.If it continues,I'll go back to Gingerbread bootloaders.Unless it's not a bootloader issue...

Anyway,let's see how it goes...

Thinking loudly here...If we flash the latest CyanogenMod nightly(When it comes) and flash RC6 over it,couldn't we manually copy the modules to /system/lib/modules or insmod them upon boot or something?I mean as a temporary solution.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Appumon123:
Dont know about random freezes.. just flashed it actually.

As i mentioned before, the maximum voltage setting i see is 1400Mhz. Can you confirm it on your device?

But the OP shows that it goes till 1600..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chubby65:
That's a bummer used it on my evo 3d and thought it was compatible with galaxy s2

can we have the second rom files to be on the external sd so we will have more space for the second rom?

also, what about external sd ntfs support? you can add an option in extweaks to mount/unmount the sd card as ntfs.

thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
maybe later. it is a good idea but some of us don't have any external sd and making it optional will take some time.

you only need 2.1GB space in sdcard.

My logitech bluetooth keyboard with mouse is fully working now. as well as usb stick. Thanks for this. This is without the use of external power. ie no powered hub.

Any response about the DAC subject would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for fixing the problems with the latest CM9 as well so fast!
