And a lot of people tell they get good battery results with this kernel.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
As you quoted, scary is made for HTC devices and is good with devices that scale fine with smartass also (HTCs)

Scary is mainly designed also for devices with a lot of freq steps

Uhm....could be anything...gokhanmoral said that he did fix that using CM9 initramfs, as i am doing now, but seems not fixing it :confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hughfollett:
@simone201

Sorry for this question, but have you solved the issue that you can't flash themes through recovery because of the low ram?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
Nope, and also gokhan is working on it....i dunno what is causing that :(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
YEAAAH!!

I have found the reason why the OTA Updater doesn't work on ICS.....

From tonight you will be able to use the OTA UPDATER again on ICS :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kalonso:
today update?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
Nope tomorrow....:D:D

Anyway, totally fixed the OTA Updater repo, so now you guys can download it again from the free/pro neak app and use it again as usual :):)

New updates will income also there when available :D

Is the touch button issue in CWM already fixed in the upcoming version?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
Yup! :p

The incoming version (tomorrow) will be a kinda bugfix of the previous one, no more lags and so on :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Josemsar:
Sorry for the noob questiong but what is the Thunderbolt! Thing from OTA app?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
Search on XDA! ;)

They are tuning scripts from pikachu01 for every rom/kernel

They override all the cpu setting that u do eh :D

PS: see in the android development section, and search for them
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Josemsar:
Ok, so for a noob changing voltage things, would you recomend me to do it, or not,? XDD
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] DeshTwo:
Just finish to upgrade from Checkrom V6 + neak to ICS WanamLite + neak.

Everything is smooth and works like a charm. One more time great work Simone, i'm also using MagicConfig + ConfiguratorPro it ROCKS !!!!

I'll giving some feedback from battery usage after 3 cycles ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Josemsar:
Ok, found the thread, but the only part I could understand was + battery & + optimizations, XDDD

Well buddy it has been a great adventure trying out your kernels and in the top two best mate. But now I will be saying my goodbyes to galaxy s2 development. Any chance you getting a HTC One X and make kernels there. Wink wink
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Nghtmare:
You bought it? You should really wait for the S3 mate, the battery life on the One X sucks just read the reviews, plus Tegra 3 ain't all that.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Goku80:
Already got it on contract and already sold this mate. To late. Plus I read different. And it is not all about specs mate. This time going for more user experience than anything else.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
I see mate, well personally i hate all the HTC Sense UI in general, i prefer somethig more clean and simple

Hope you will love it (even if tegra3 sux)! :)

Come here again sometimes eh!! ;)

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sianzb0i:
I kinda like smartassv2. Im using lulzactive as a replacement as NEAK doesnt have it :(

Can you implement it pleassseee? Haha

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] XPLOSIV10:
:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sianzb0i:
Lulzactive is abit too jumpy and the cpu speeds jump all around the place (probably i dunno how to tame it). Smartassv2 is more like ondemand and something more intelligent like lulzactive but doesnt get the cpu speeds jumping around that much. Based on observations in setCPU.

As for batt life, smartassv2 seems to outdo lulzactive on my phone.

Maybe its just me?

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ata1918:
But... there are so many parameters(settings) for lulzactive and smartassv2. You can fine tune them both.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sianzb0i:
is there any app that can do that? NEAK pro doesnt have it. im afraid some other app may clash with NEAK pro. smartassv2 isnt even implemented so yeah.

i know theres a lulzactive app by tegrak. Should i use that?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nrk_2k:
yup, tegrak lulzactive app won't clash with neak pro :) best app to use for finetuning lulzactive.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sianzb0i:
Ill give it a try then. Thanks.

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sianzb0i:
How to make sure lulzactive app settings are applied? Currently in setCPU, the cpu speeds i observed are either 200 or 1000 and i am not running or doing anything. Shouldnt it scale up one step at a time by default? App is one step at a time at 75%

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nrk_2k:
You may not actually see each step in something like setcpu or the pro app, as the stepping can happen in a fraction of a second. I don't know what the update frequency of setcpu is, but pro app updates every 500ms. The CPU could easily step up through every step during this time, depending on settings.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sianzb0i:
HAHA i totally forgot the sampling time and the refresh interval lol. Its because i used to be able to see it on setCPU. Whats a good percentage to use? I have up the percentage to 75 and its still smooth. I wonder if the settings were actually applied. i am expecting to see some performance dip on 75%.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ryther:
In setCPU you can check the percentage of use of each clock in the info panel ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
News guys, an update is incoming in 2 days max ;)

I need 2 testers for tomorrow, so please post here if you want to test the new improved version :)

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] msquared:
Is there anything you want us to focus on in particular or just use it normally?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
Here it is guys...

This is defacto 2.1.2x but is still called 2.1.1x-beta

What do i need in particular:

1) CM10/JellyBean tests (if it boots, any bugs etc...)

2) LPM/Charging Mode in AOSP ROMs

3) Bluetooth or any other bugs in sammy roms

4) You tell me any other bugs

If someone needs the changelog already, my dev branch in my sources it's the place to look at

The main feature is that it has new wifi drivers, new bluetooth drivers, updated to 3.0.38 and some more fixes here and there

Oh and now root in recovery installs only the binary and not the apk (binary is updated)

LINK TO BOTH VERSIONS (choose yours): http://mirror.zantekk.de/neak/beta-builds/

Give me feedback here ASAP!! :D

Thanks in advance

Hss Mmc_cap_erase been disabled? Is the latest version is safe to wipe on?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Addicted2Speed:
Just rebooted after flashing...

Will test it through the night and see how it goes ;)

PS: 2.1.1x was a little more battery hungry than 2.0.6x... Deep sleep was better, but while navigating on internet and facebook the battery dropped faster (with the same usage 2.1.1x did +/- 45min less of Screen on than 2.0.6x)... Hope this update will fix it ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] XPLOSIV10:
simone can you please post the changelog here? I cant find it at github.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] shadowblade330:
usually a reboot will fix that or something is wrong with the usb charger ports.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
NEAK has no brick bug as it still usesbthe good old mmc drivers which don't have the bug

BTW no one has any feedback??
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] shadowblade330:
still working on it hasnt been a day yet lol
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Addicted2Speed:
Master Simone,

After a few tests where is what I noticed:

- A little bit more smoother than previous 2.1.1x

- Better signal strenght (more 12% - where i have 62% strenght now it has 74% -> more 1 bar)

- Weaker Wi-Fi strengh (less 10% - where i have 62% strenght now it has 52% -> less 1 bar)

- SpeedTest best of 3 (2.1.2x beta: Down -> 34,59 Mbps Up -> 4,08 Mbps Ping -> 14 ms / 2.1.1x: Down -> 38,91 Mbps Up -> 4,09 Mbps Ping -> 13 ms)

- Music ( +/- 1h -> 6% battery drain ... After 20min of usage the battery dropped 4%, but from 20min to +/- 70min only dropped 2% :eek: )

- Navigation on web seems to drain less battery than 2.1.1x with the same usage

- GPS locks fast after 1st time

- Currently i'm on a modded version of Hospital's WinUV and the phone is working great :good:

Going to 2nd battery cicle :good:

PS: Using stock Sammy XWLPG ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
Great, seems the source code updates have done a great work on the battery side :good::good:

I just need an AOSP/CM9/AOKP feedback and we're done
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Addicted2Speed:
Simone,

What about the weaker Wi-Fi strenght?

If you put the old Wi-Fi drivers, will this update loose the better network signal and will it drain more battery?

If yes i rather have more network signal and less battery drain than more 10% Wi-Fi signal strenght ;) ...

If not i think you should use the old drivers (in my opinion... don´t know if somesomeone had the same issue)

Great work :good:

PS: When you have new updates to be tested give me a call... i'm always looking for something new to flash/test :cool:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fridlack:
Installed over cm9 yesterday and have a softbrick, a have no access to recovery but still have asses to download mode

I am on vacation now and until Saturday I can not fix it and make more tests, no mobile until Saturday for me

I don't know if its a bad download our a kernel error

Best regards

Pd: I am writing from friend mobile, not sure of I can read more until Saturday
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] shadowblade330:
Delete was using the older version.

But also when I installed beta I got stuck in a bootloop , good thing i backuped.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
Oh ok, the issue is related to the CM10 support which is causing problems...i revert it asap
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
Please guys test out this AOSP version (for ICS only, NO JB SUPPORT): http://mirror.zantekk.de/neak/beta-builds/N.E.A.K-2.1.1x-AOSP-beta2.zip

I need to know if it boots fine and IF CHARGING FROM PHONE OFF WORKS....

Or any other bugs ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mrcreativity:
Flashed beta on Stock LPD.

1) Bluetooth works

2) Wifi and signal strength feel the same to me

3) Can't comment on smoothness just yet

4) Need a day or more of testing for battery performance

5) Brightness sensitivity feels different. Can't put my finger on it just yet.

Looks good otherwise. Well done once again simone.

Master Simone,

After a few more tests:

- Bluetooth works with no probs

- Not a single reboot or freeze in a day

- Deep sleep is great (after charging, 4 hours passed by and the battery was still on 100% ... only after a call at 4h30 dropped to 99%) :D

- Battery life's great -> 12h 44m 38s and the battery is still in 83% (with +/- 50 sms + 5 phone calls + 15 min facebook + 15 min internet + update apps from google play + 10 min of gaming)

Unleash the beast ;)

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Addicted2Speed:
Stock sammy XWLPG: 21h 38m 14s with phone on and 65% battery... included a lot of tests on 3 modems (using Signal Pro and SpeedTest) ... so not bad :silly:

Master Simone,

I resolved the Wi-Fi issue with another modem... because since i flashed the beta kernel, XXLQ5 acted a little weird: more signal strenght but less quality in the phone call (the noise returned) and weaker Wi-Fi signal.

Now i flashed BVLP7 and the previous Wi-Fi strenght that i had returned and the noise while talking to someone on the phone desappeared :D

Another good thing this kernel as is that when I flash a new modem, the battery info doesn´t reset ;)

:cool:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
Will fix today ;) going to release another beta for aosp and if it works then i will release it

EDIT: small update...unfortunately i have broken my system's libc6 libraries (needed to compile everything), so i have to completely reinstall my linux system in order to compile properly the kernel...so the release will be tomorrow but the beta will be this evening
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Addicted2Speed:
Take your time... the beta is running great ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
Finally i got Debian 6 working properly on my PC :good:

Reformatted everything, uff.....

BTW, compiling now the new beta, will be available asap (for AOSP)

Please tell me asap IF RECOVERY WORKS :good:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
Simone, what's the difference between your Sammy and AOSP kernels? By looking at your sources, is only at initramfs, right?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
Yeah and also a small difference in the defconfig

EDIT: no feedbacks about latest beta for aosp?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ryther:
Here I'am, flashed beta3 but still no recovery (tried to access it from within recovery after flash, with power+vol_up+home and from ROM).

If you want send a pm to me to betatest it, I'm Italian too, maybe I can help you faster that way ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] shadowblade330:
testing beta 3 everything seems to be working so far booted up but recovery does not work.

---------- Post added at 07:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:22 PM ----------

download mode does if you need to restore u will have to flash an odin ROM
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Ryther:
You can just flash a kernel ;) I use mobile Odin pro and it did the trick ;)

Scrolling seems a little bit laggy and wifi signals dropped a lot.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Addicted2Speed:
I had the same problem with Wi-fi, but resolved that issue with another modem (had XXLQ5 now i have BVLP7 and i'm happy with it: better signal strenght, more stabble and more battery firendly than XXLQ5).

Change the modem and give it a try ;)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] simone201:
