Forgot to add I have stock recovery :P

So this will work, with samsung stock ICS :)?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fidorulz:
Anyone? I tried flashing recovery from

but didnt work
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] spiderio:
have you try

ROM Toolbox Pro v4.6.1

it's paid apps from market...

i've used it to flash recovery
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pikachu01:
Just flash CF-root to gain CWM and then flash from there.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fidorulz:
I just downloaded it now how do I flash a recovery with it? Dont see any options?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
If you already know how to use Odin and the Download Mode to flash the kernel, then you might as well use that.

If you are bothered by the yellow triangle after flashing with Oding, you can use Chainfire's TriangleAway app to remove it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fidorulz:
Its not the triangle I care about I want to keep this kernel but change the recovery to something a little more to my liking (like default for backups and such being on sdcard)

all my attempts so far via rom manager or ROM Toolbox Pro to flash the recovery have not actual succeeded. Rom manager says done but when I goto recovery its still the same one

Ive used odin before but all tutorials I could find tell me to flash a kernel but I want to keep this great speedmod kernel but use different recovery

I would like the touch recovery if possible but would settle for any recovery that uses external SD as default

any help or link with tutorial would be appreciated
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] SaneinOne:
If you want touch recovery then flash it, I don't believe there'd be any issues.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] fidorulz:
I tried flashing the touch recovery from here

and here

via the current recovery

but it didnt work gets stuck at

@hardcore

Seems I've got issues..

Every time I do something in recovery my sim card fails to be recognised, this time i did a backup then rebooted bam no network signal.

Flashed 11 again this time via mobile odin to see if it improves matters?

You are not alone. I have that bug sometimes. However, this is

NOT

kernel related. I have another occasional bug, I can't charge my phone. When it's completely off, the battery icon just got stuck and it refused to charge. Also occured once when the phone is switched on. The moment I plug in the usb charger to my S2, the battery icon on the top right showed charging, but only a couple of seconds, before a message pops out to say "Battery disconnected".

Guess the above issues some users have been experienced before. But I can tell you that these 2 issues are

NOT

kernal related.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
If you want to disable mc_sched power savings, you can do it easily via a startup script. Just do:

echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
Agreed. I notice this after upgrading to ICS as well. I find that removing, cleaning and re-seating the battery contacts helps somewhat. Maybe the new battery driver is more sensitive.

I had this issue also, its probably related to the ROM you are using, i dont know the cause of it.

i used this file to correct it:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pissyhun:
hi

flashing siyah kernel modifies some files for bln. so look some pages back for unmodified files posted by hardcore.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Agent_Adodas:
pissyhun,

i think it is ROM related. i did clean install of the ROM with speedmod kernel plus Format /system. the file suggested to fix this issue is under /system and in my case it was formatted so there is no way there are leftovers from a different kernel.

i saw also on WanamLite changelog that he removed the support for BLN, maybe that what was causing the issue. after he removed this support i had no such issue anymore.

maybe other ROMS also changed this file to give support for BLN.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Alexpiri:
Thank you guys for your help and sorry everyone for the repeated question! I always read this thread, but i didn't remember these posts few pages back!

I flashed the file attached (link by Agent_adodas) and everything now is working good!

Thank you and sorry again:)

However agent_adodas I think it is Siyah related not rom related because before siyah i used SpeedMod on foxhound and everything was ok
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Agent_Adodas:
Alexpiri,

you mean you didn't deleted the ROM? you just flashed Siyah's kernel and now you flashed back speedmod 3-11 and got this issue?

if so, it really kernel related, i just don't know if during the kernel installation it modifies the BLN files under /system.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Alexpiri:
Flashed foxhound that was with Siyah rc2(NO BLNWW function) then flashed speedmod k3-9 and everything was ok! After that i flashed Siyah rc3,rc4 and rc5(at this point everything ok) and then yesterday phenomenal (speedmod k3-9 based) and SpeedMod k3-11 and got this issue!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Agent_Adodas:
Well, i think maybe one of Siyah's RC's modifies bln files, ill try asking him in is thread.

Update:

Siyah kernel is modifying this file to support BLN, i asked him to add a "Known issue" or something similar to is thread so other people will be aware of this problem when switching between kernels.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] morg01:
Regards my 'no sim card' problem, I think maybe then its to do with sim pin lock.

some times the pin lock screen appears after the launchers appeared, so for now I've disabled it to see if that helps. / must be an ICS bug

Yes, I have sim lock pin on too. but never try to disable it. anyway, i am fine and can accept these 2 flaws in my phone. cos i know i had flashed a rom that is not an official release in my country. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] morg01:
Can someone confirm the following also.

Try fixing permissions in recovery and see if you lose your sim,

If you do, just reflash speedmod in recovery again to get it back.

If confirmed there must be a bug in cwm?

Extract the bolt_scripts somewhere, edit them and run using Script Manager or place the script in init.d. The script that you want to edit in particular is bolt_siyah.

To all the guys who are still in doubt, changing bootanimation on speedmod is not a big deal and works exactly as it did on GB before.... now proved..

But, today i figured a weird issue, on GB it was quite normal for me, cuz i hardly ever used another kernel as Hardcores but on ICS i had Siyah until yesterday.

Now the weird issue,

WIFI tethering on Stock or even siyah kernel is less battery consuming than with speedmod. It uses around 10 % per hour on these kernels, but on speedmod it literally eats my battery, around 20 % / hour which is twice as much, is there a solid explanation for this behavior?

All in all, Speedmod saves at least same battery as on GB before, only the tethering is an exception, would a kmesg or dmesg help on this?

Thanks hardcore for take notice in advance!

Results for Siyah / SpeedMod / N.E.A.K. / stock kernels

Everything is specific to my phone, my "normal" usage and my home location. Most values are exact results, but some are rounded. I usually have wifi, synch (three email accounts, calendar and news), Google Talk and Skype on.

For all custom kernels, I was running on ICS XWLP3 „Frankenstein“ ROM.

For stock kernels, I was running on the corresponding stock ROM.

Always using the Samsung's standard / stock 1650mAh battery.

For SiyahKernel and N.E.A.K., as there are many, many configurable settings, I have changed nothing - just default settings.

I just flashed SpeedMod K3-11 on my XWLP8 Frankenstein ROM and added its results.

Here are my current results:

Benchmarks

Battery stats

SpeedMod K3-11 performs very well on my XWLP8 ROM and has better battery life than the corresponding stock kernel ... on my phone.

But it is not the best balanced kernel-ROM combination I have tested so far.

In mixed usage, SpeedMod K3-9 kernel on XWLP7 ROM had better results ... on my phone.

As I really like SpeedMod kernels and do not want to go back to older versions, I think I will verify my results in a second battery cycle.

Thks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
This shouldn't be the case. But I think I've found a scenario in which it happens:

If you use wifi tethering and enable usb debugging, and you plug in the usb or charger, it causes a media file transfer process to run wild and drain the battery. This doesn't stop until the phone is rebooted.

So, moral of the story: Make sure you turn USB debugging off when not using it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
Thanks for the feedback man.

In my experience, at near idle loads, the power consumption of the GSM/3G radio and WiFi affect the battery life the most since the CPU is idle (the kernel mostly controls the CPU power usage). Also, the radio power usage can fluctuate quite a bit, depending on location and interference. Hence, I wouldn't rely too much on the differences between the idle power usage.

However, if you put the phone in flight mode, then the idle power usage is really only the CPU. In flight mode, you can see that the CPU barely consumes any power at all.

In terms of differences between K3-9 and K3-11, K3-11 has a slight more aggressive GPU DVFS. This results in a smoother UI experience. So when the screen is on, in theory it *could* use slightly more power. But again, I think the difference in power is negligible, because the screen itself uses much more power than the GPU.

There's a bug with underclocking in the official ICS stock kernel. Gokhanmoral from Siyah has the fix for this. hardcore would need to ask him for the exact commit (I can't remember which).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
I can't find any references to such a bug.

Note that the ondemand governor and cpu hotplug work differently in the ics kernel vs gb. My guess is that the way it works is less tolerant to uv.

I don't endorse undervolting, so unless it really is a bug, and not just instability due to uv, I won't make any changes for it.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hardcore:
Thanks. I'll think about it.

If that's the cause, then it looks like it is triggered by frequency governor changes, for example setcpu screen off profiles, etc.

So I recommend simply not changing the governor.

The cpu hotplug in this kernel is closely linked to the cpu governor and changing it would most likely result in non optimal performance.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pikachu01:
Actually, that was how they discovered it. Later on, they found that underclocking also exhibits the problem.

I used your kernel on GB and I loved it becuase you changed the saturation of the color but on ICS i noticed that the saturation is like other kernels:(
