I am a speed freak and I'm proud of it. :D

I have to admit though,ICS kills that habit for me a bit.I mean,Gingerbread's smoothness was dramatically affected by overclocking or underclocking.ICS is as smooth and sometimes as fast at 1600MHz as it is at 1000MHz.So it seems that even I will have to admit that 1400MHz is more than enough now.

Other than that,1600MHz seems unusable for the time being.There must be something wrong,as it's slower in both benchmarks and UI interactions that stock CPU speeds.Dunno if it's related to safety thresholds,but it doesn't really work.Also,the bug with SetCPU seems that isn't only with SetCPU.I also have SysTune installed and the same problem appears when I change my CPU speeds to lower ones.I press "Apply" and BANG! instant crash.Good luck on that one.Everything I know and have tested,logged or changed improved ****.

Finally,beta 7 runs perfectly on HydroG3n ICS latest.Except for the two aforementioned bugs,and the no touchkey backlight stuff,it's nearing perfection.I'm only missing video recording,but that's not up to you to fix as far as I know.So thank you for your work. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
i can confirm

bln is not working anymore

installed the kernel, performed a hard reset and not BLN support.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Entropy512:
I'm beginning to wonder if it is caused by a governor change on high load... Because I can reproduce this without a screen turn-off event.

Try this:

Set a "Charging USB" or "Charging AC" profile in SetCPU with a frequency limit of 800 MHz. (I think I've seen it once or twice even at 1000, but far more rarely).

An interesting thing to try (I can't try it where I currently am, no ADB), try changing scaling_max_freq from ADB when the device is under heavy load, like maybe when running StabilityTest.

Yeah same here battery drains so fast.. b6 was far better in terms of battery.. I set Conservative / noop and UC to 1000.. I even raised loadh0 and loadl1 to 65/30 but that didn't help so much.. :confused:

Hi Gokhan, fixed the clock issue by unticking automatic time zone sync. Must be a rom issue, anyway keep up the great work! I'll miss your amazing kernel. I hope to see you again for Galaxy S4! (i skipped s3 as gpu is same and not much difference with other features)

I don't think so, official JB Samsung release will bring kernel sources for official rom. Now Siyah is using CM10 commits eg not fully functional hw composer because there are no JB sources.

battery dreaning fast with 5series. no wakelock good sleep but draining fast :(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
if you have bln active, even if it is blnww, it will drain faster.

other than that I noticed no difference in any 5.0 series.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pilgrim011:
For me, so far, battery consumption is really minimal, even though I have BLNWW active. At least on Sammy ROM - CM10 is not that great regarding battery, regardless of the kernel used.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Many40:
Hi,

I know that this can be changed easily by init.d script but I'm just wondering if GM set SCHED_MC=2 as default intentionally or by accident. Normally, I think that as long as CPU Hotplug mode is set to HOTPLUGGING (in ver5.0b1) then SCHED_MC aiming to schedule tasks between multiple cores in the CPU, should be disabled (set to 0) - to not duplicate a logic which does the same. SCHED_MC=2 (load balancing) would make sense if CPU Hotplug mode is set to DUAL CORE, then it could utilize both core efffectively but not aiming at battery saving, especially that in DUAL CORE mode AFTR/LPA couldn't be hit (with 2nd core ON).

Edit: typo

@GM is there any differences between the kernel compiled with linaro and gcc non-linaro?

Just my opinion, I feel that 4.1.5 with linaro compiled very robust and fast despite the bugs. any chance you're going to compile it with linaro?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
I've got a feeling I'm seeing higher battery usage on this kernel than mcm ones, for CM10.

Is b1 synced to git yet, as I might try to compare them... I've got a feeling it's changes entropy made to the Mali drivers, that improved dvfs... Screen on battery life was much reduced with b1 compared to my last kernel (mcm811's modified siyah)

Gut feel says it's the Mali drivers... But that might break backwards compatibility (I'm no expert on graphics stuff at all)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] robertobsc:
Gokhan ,

+1

I know how much you would like to kill me with my next sentence, really sorry, but here it goes:

I have a true feeling that the battery usage is higher and the phone is getting hotter, more clearly when Tapatalking and browsing with 3G.

Don't know if the arch power may be related... But is the only thing that's power related in that version isn't it?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AlkaDragos:
Well i'm on CM10 on my first cycle with 40% battery left, 3h screen time ( with auto brightness cpu sample interval 0.5s - that will affect battery even more ), 30min call and wifi on like 1h with kernel stock values ( no cpu / gpu uv ). If battery was really affected with this new build i don't think it's that "much". I remember i tried mcm811 modified kernel before new mali with vsync and battery was much worst on CM10. I don't know what to say now, maybe it depends on device or something else...but it's just my opinion. Maybe GM can tell us something about this... :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] djdeeles:
My phone heats more with v5 too

I said before about battery drains fast with v5 but i think its not related with blnww.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Black-Angel1:
Hello Gokhan,

I find your work really great. However, I still have a question. Can you of the unofficial Siah 4.1.5 (see link) to take something to improve smoothness and reduce the battery consumption? The Unofficial Siah from 23.10 runs very smoothly and economically. Maybe you can take some of the unofficial siah.

Here is the link: http://sourceforge.net/projects/cm10i9100vsync/files/vsync_sysfs/

Sorry from my bad English.

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9100 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
not yet synced but I think I now see the problem after you mentioned about that mali thing. I remember Entropy512's commit and I will cherrypick it to disable some vsync part notifying the userspace until the opensource hwcomposer is complete.

I will publish another beta tonight and then start organizing the commits. there will be one big commit which will have JB source merges + mali changes and I will just commit blnww part separately. others are mostly manual merges with s3 kernel and really hard to preserve the commit history as it was not so clean on the s3 side anyway.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Yeah... That one was good IIRC to stop uevents.

I noticed the battery change after the commits 12 October...

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/q/s...anogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4210,n,z

Change Iaa8a026a: mali: Update platform code (http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/24668/)

That one in particular I think... Did you merge it?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
actually the mali part in s2 kernel is exactly the same as s3 kernel, even the platform specific files with some exceptions in cpu locking etc...

I can say that we are using pegasus files but they are in orion dir.

and the merge was manual so I cannot say that I have those :) but I am now checking out cm 4210 kernel to compare them and merge with Entropy512's changes.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] FeuchtVonLipwig:
i have a problem and maybe somebody can help me to verify this, because i'm not exactly sure when this happens.

i am on a modified 4.0.4 firmware (see signature) with the latest beta kernel and when i played a free 3d app named "agent dash" from the play store my phone just froze. i restarted the phone and thought it was just a one sided thing but it happened again. i am not sure if it depends on any special setting in stweaks (i deactivated mdnie toggle, activated bln and BLNWW, set timeout to 5 minutes and i deactivated the light on touch), but maybe some of you on stock based 4.0.4 roms can try some gpu heavy apps (like agent dash for example) and see if it works for you.

i could also provide logcat if i knew how to dump it via terminal emulator...

i also dont think that this is a rom thing because the same happened to me before on a total unmodified stock rom with siyah 4.1.5 and i thought it was related to the pegasusq govenor at that time.

so thanks if anybody can help me (maybe increasing some cpu/gpu frequencies could also do the job for my phone)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I have made some changes in default gpu frequencies. please reset settings after flashing v5.0b2.

I will upload it after receiving a feedback from a friend.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] marcusmt:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:

I will try to increase the memory in the next release. there are some unused allocations in b1 and b2...

hopefully we will have the release in the next weekend.

meanwhile I will organize the sources and try to split them into meaningful commits.

You can try to do a logcat and let the developer check if there's any error with the app. But if it freezes, then try to get the last_kmsg(maybe due to kernel panic or some other reasons).

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tungstwenty:
Gokhan, 3 comments on the recovery:

- When going into the menu to define backup format, the parent menu entries are displayed after the dup and tar ones (you might be able to imagine why I found this :))

- The wipe data/cache entry on the 2nd ROM menu is a bit unclear: does it wipe cache only? Or data (factory reset) including cache as well? For the main rom the options are distinct. It can be done in mounts & storage, so not a big deal

- I tried the third option to see if it was a glitch, but it entered the adb send... mode and it wasn't possible to go back. Only a minor nuisance, but if it's feasible to abort it would be better.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] RovG:
I confirm that I have the same experience with 1 & 3. "Display current status" under "Dual boot options" is also displaying some other strange strings.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] FeuchtVonLipwig:
i checked my agent dash problem again with the new beta kernel. at first crash it didn't take down my complete phone anymore but just froze a bit but after hitting some buttons it responded again and force closed the app. after that it happened again though with a total freeze...

i also tried a different kernel (philz kernel based on stock xwlpy kernel) and it even crashed there on default frequencies and voltages, so i guess its not a kernel but a stock rom or maybe just a personal problem on my phone.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tungstwenty:
If it crashes and reboots on its own, get the contents of /proc/last_kmsg after the reboot, to check if there's some relevant kernel info in there.

If the app force closes, get the logcat and there might be some information on the reason. Perhaps with the tag "AndroidRuntime".
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I remember that dup tar selection had a problem. I will fix it.

And I will change / with + to prevent the confusion.

For adb mode I could not try it on s2. I will test it on Sony (if I can make the IMEI registration that our government requires) and then fix s2 recovery.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
Those strange info are some lines from 2ndROM build.prop

May be useful to see the build date and version.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
Cannot help you if you do not share the info about ROM. Considering that I will close the thread next week it is still not too late to learn that...
