No problems with brightness here
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
Me either, hopefully someone will tell me what issue they are having and what ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Lord_Micron:
Since I first started using the NEAK kernel (w/ Task's AOKP, staying updated with newer releases of both the ROM and NEAK kernel), it has had delays with the brightness scaling up... including becoming darker before brightening. When it is the worst is in bright daylight. In the dark, it is very responsive up or down.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
Fwiw, for the short times I was running NEAK on tasks AOKP, auto brightness response seemed better than stock...

Also, Ktoonsez, sorry I didn't get you those logs I promised over the weekend...ended up being away from home on short notice, so needed to stay stable, and wouldn't have had a comp available anyway. Will try again this weekend.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
Go into "Settings | Factory" and tell me if "AutoAdjust screen power" is ON or OFF. And whatever it is, see if reversing it helps you with your brightness issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
Have tried 2.0.4 several times on TaskAOKP on builds since his 5-1 release (currently on Build 36) and it doesn't seem to play well. I get the lockscreen freezes, camera froze up completely...forcing me to hard reboot (holding power button). Used NEAK app to set to MC-sched, After-idle, and Voltage control to set to Noop-Ondemand.

I only say all this because when i was on AOKP builds prior to 5-1 and used what I think was an earlier NEAK (2.0.2 maybe?), it was AWESOME! And i want it to work again...but i have no idea why it's not. Task's current kernel is doing pretty darn good...don't get me wrong...but seemed like i got better battery and snappier response from NEAK when I had a combo that worked.

I was going to go back and put 2.0.2 (or whatever it was) on my current setup, but I accidentally deleted the file.

If I can be of help troubleshooting this, I'll do my best...but I'm somewhat noobish...dont' know a lot about "dumps" and "logcats" and such. :)

Thanks ktoonsez!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
It was 2.0.3 and here it is if you want to download and see if that one works with AOKP, I know that everyone seems to have issue with that ROM.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jojo_whit3:
The only time I have a brightness issue is when I'm outside. I'm running AOKP 5/1 build (haven't found a reason to update) with the latest v2.0.4x kernel.

I have auto-brightness enabled and I set up my own custom levels...

0-999 : 50/50

1000-1999 : 70/70

2000-4999 : 100/100

5000-9999 : 200/200

10000-inf : 250/250

What I've noticed is that when I hold my phone vertically (i.e. perpendicular to the ground), the light sensor will measure around 8,000, the screen/buttons values display 200, and the screen appears to be the correct brightness. Afterwards, I turn the phone horizontal (screen facing up) and the sensor will measure well above 10,000...often hitting over 100,000 if it's not cloudy outside. When this happens, the screen will brighten for a split second and then turn very dim...even though the screen/buttons values are reporting 250.

I don't know if this is what other people are seeing....but I do believe it is related to the kernel. I was using the v2.0.3 kernel with the same 5/1 AOKP build and never saw this happen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
Just wanted to take a moment to report...but more importantly thank you formally. I really appreciate the link to get the older version! I'll try to hang on to it this time. Although, I can't seem to d/l anything from mediafire with any of the browsers on my phone...other d/l sites work...but not mediafire all of a sudden...just got it off the comp.

Anyway, I was getting FC's and lockups like crazy on 2.0.4. Seemed pretty smooth on 2.0.3 though...UNTIL...I changed Voltage manager to NOOP and ONDEMAND. Started getting FC's on camera frequently...occasionally others too, but nowhere near the probs from 2.0.4. It appears as long as I stay away from NOOP, everything does fine. Just wanted to throw that out in case it helped anybody else with troubleshooting. (and just FYI, i put 2.0.4 back on to test under same "good" settings as 2.0.3, and it was FC city again).

The only weird thing I'm wondering...if you have time to comment...is when adding some of the "tweaks" (sched-mc, after-idle, ext4 boost), I always come up with a "messed up" Gallery. A bunch of blank pics. The best i can tell, the kernel "switches" the way internal/external memory is addressed/handled/labeled. As in, external card is now sdcard in system and internal is now emmc (or something like that). Am I at all close? Or am I completely confused? And, is there a way to avoid the gimped up Gallery or is it just FOL (fact of life)?

Thanks again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
It is not switching the cards around, but it seems that your phone doesnt like the ext4 boot is my guess. U will just have to try different combo's until u find the one that your specific phone likes:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
Hey ktoonsez, I'm having a problem running your kernel. I don't know for a fact it's your kernel causing it but I'd like to figure it out.

What I'm running:

Latest NEAK kernel + AOKP build 36.

Issue also occurred in Phonebricker + NEAK (sammy version).

My issue:

Occasionally the OS will get extremely slow, like you would expect if the phone were running at 100mhz or something. Everything continues to work, just reeaaallly slow. For instance, music playback gets very electronic-y as sounds are stretched out, tapping one of the capacitive buttons takes 5-10 seconds before vibration/feedback, and another 5-10 seconds before a menu pops up. I managed to get the NEAK configurator open and scrolled to the CPU tab, and it claimed I was at 1200mhz - though the phone didn't even get warm so I'm skeptical.

I'm guessing since I've done a full wipe between phone bricker + NEAK and AOKP + NEAK, the only thing in common are my apps and the NEAK kernel, so it stands to reason it would be one or the other causing this. My wife's GS2 is running AOKP + NEAK as well though and we haven't experienced this problem on it yet (but it's intermittent so it might be there, just hasn't happened yet). I'm currently running conservative governor + SIO, but it has also happened on conservative + NOOP.

While I could just change a bunch of sh!t and hope it goes away, I'm more interested in figuring out what's causing it, and fixing it properly. How can I figure out what's going on? What will log this kind of thing?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] trialsrider1:
I can report I have seen this as well. Once last night and once today. I call it super lag. I found if you lock the screen and then unlock it fixes it, but would be nice to figure out why it does it in the first place.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
I can also attest to having experienced this a few times...usually once a day or two. Only issue Ive had with this kernel so far, running with AOKP 36 and am set to lulzactive & noop via pro neak app. Im getting awesome performance and battery life.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dan_maran:
Chalk me down as another getting the "Super Lag"

It's going to be hard let go of this battery life...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
Expect an update on the kernel tomorrow guys:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D. Hopefully the guys that are having brightness issues will se an improvement.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SETdown:
That´s sounds great.

Thanks for your hard work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
For those of you experiencing superlag, what settings are you running? I'd like to find out what we have in common.

Me:

Conservative governor

NOOP + SIO (happened with both)

AFTR Idle

Ext4 Boost

So far I've only had the issue when sound is playing but it could be coincidence, and it does go away if I turn off the screen and wait long enough for my phone to go to sleep.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] monkey hung:
The link for the AOKP kernel isn't working for me. Any mirrors?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mcala:
It works fine. If using stock browser hit menu & "request desktop site" then you will see the zip.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
Running AOKP build 36. Using NEAK config pro to set governor to lulzactive/vr. Mine tends to happen randomly when locking or unlocking the device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
Do you have AFTR or Ext4?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] trialsrider1:
Mines random. Sometimes in apps it'll slow so I can't use it. Have to lock and unlock to get it back. Using aftr and ext boost. Stock governor etc
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
Nope, leave them disabled seeing as I don't know what they do lol

I've experienced the lag more so today than ever before. Not doing anything in particular....one time it was while browsing xda on tapatalk, the other was when I hit the power button to lock the phone I notice the phone took a while to screen off then when it did the CRT animation was very slow.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 1weener:
I don't get those slowdowns. I am running Task's build 36 with NEAK, uv and uc (1000MHz). I am set to noop with lulz, but have tried ondemand too. Bith seem to work without problems. 2.0.4x seems to run well on this phone but the last version gave a lot of random freezes and I could not touch USB without freezing.

Ktoon, I thought I had read that there was going to be an update by now... when is that slated for now? And thanks for the great work!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
Building right now. Busy night last night and busy day today. Was building another kernel:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
Awesome!

Ktoon, have you ever experienced this super lag we've been discussing? Is it something that is addressed in this update? Honestly my phone is running amazing...has not run better. Only issue I've experienced is this rare "lag"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
Yup. Same for me. Its pretty much random and I've used every governor/scheduler combo.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] htcslic:

No, never. Only time is when first booting, I honestly dont know what is causing that for the few people. But sense it happens for people on Siyah too it is most likely one of the schedulers or govs that just dont agree with your phone's ad or app combo.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] htcslic:
I'll try some different scheds and governers and report back!

Sent from a Galaxy near you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
Likewise. I believe I've had it with VR/NOOP/SIO but I might be wrong about VR. I've also had it with lulzactive and conservative governors.

Is it possible for me to log this somehow?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
Most likely it is the vr sched, it is what caused the super slooooooow backup restore in CWM
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
I've been using lulz & vr...the lag is so rare and my phone has been so fast and great on battery I'm hesitant to change.

Gonna make a backup then flash tasks update and this NEAK update...might try changing schedulers. If I'm running lulz & vr with excellent results besides this rare lag what is the next logical step to try for governor & scheduler?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SETdown:
ktoonsez,

The name of the zip is N.E.A.K-2.0.5x-Sammy-micswap.zip, anothers versions says I777. This is the correct kernel or is the i9100 version?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tylercarter:
its for the i777. only the i777 needs mic swap(everything but att firmware) or no mic swap(for official att roms)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SETdown:
Hi tyler,

Thanks for responding.

My question was whether he had uploaded the correct version for i777 or i9100 by mistake (I say this because in previous versions said i777 in the name and this does not say).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tylercarter:
He uploaded the right version. I'm currently running it. :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
I just installed the new AOKP, used kernel clean script and installed NEAK 2.0.5x, then went into the NEAK Pro config and changed my governor to Conservative and sched to SIO. Rebooted, opened Scramble with Friends and immediately got superlag.

Turning off the screen and waiting 20-30 seconds fixes it, but nothing else short of a reboot will help. I can leave it like that for an hour (if I don't let it sleep) and it'll still be uberslow.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
All of them from this thread are for the I777. I just made the name sorter this week so it could be read by CWM. The name was so long it was going off the screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
Flashed the latest NEAK along with the 5/19 aokp release....gonna charge up and report back tomorrow...thanks ktoon!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
Do all of the governors in NEAK have a screen-off max clock? What happens when the phone goes to sleep on your kernel that isn't shared with the CM9 kernel?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SETdown:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 1weener:
Thanks. I saw that it was in post #2, but thought it was from the original since it doesn't have a date, nor were there any previous logs.

Anyway, it looks like you've been busy. And I am wondering what constitutes a larger change in the version number, like to 2.1? Is it just small changes that add up all together and is basically something the developer decides to do at some point? Or is it a change in functionality that you use to define it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
I leave that up to Simone. This update was more or less patches and then of course the touch screen sensitivity configuration.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] simone201:
I will step to 2.1 when i will have a totally stable and fast kernel as i imagine it...for now these are common patches and improvements
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
It seems the default values of Min gamma = 0 and Max gamma = 24 are the lowest and highest you can go, not a whole lot exciting going on there, but what does Min_bl do? Is this applicable to the Galaxy S2's OLED display? I couldn't tell a difference between 1 and 99.

EDIT: Reading the Fluxi XX kernel thread, it mentions Exynos-specific NEON optimizations. This isn't mentioned in the NEAK features, does NEAK have similar optimizations?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ductapemaster:
A quick question, a while back I was reading that the BLN notifications (specifically the soft buttons) cause a wakelock and will drain the battery quickly.

Is this still the case, or has that issue been overcome?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 1weener:
It is completely stable and fast for me, and I don't even have to imagine it... I vote 2.1!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] simone201:
NEAK has always included NEON optimisations ;)

Hehe we have 2 steps to do....next and then 2.1 ;)

I have to fix the last 2-3 bugs ans update the sources again and then we're done :D

I used vr ondemand and never got sluggishness or anything. Runs great!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Globalrebel:
I am wondering this as well. I would like to use this feature, but do not want my battery being drained due to wakelock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
1. Install BBS

2. Turn on BLN

3. Wait

4. See if you have a wakelock

5. Profit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
More than likely it always will cus to show you a notification the kernel needs to do stuff to show you the notification or else it would not work, so either way whether it is in the form of a wakelock or what, the kernel will have to do extra things and will use more battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
I haven't experienced the "super lag" since flashing 2.0.5 and I just updated aokp to 5/22. Everything is still running great here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 1weener:
Zero issues here on Task's 5/22. All day with heavy use and all is good.:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
So I experienced a slowdown today. First one since updating to 2.0.5. It never was a frequent thing for me though. It happened after I closed all my recent apps and pressed the power button to turn off the screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
This is just me thinking out loud, but the slowness resembles very much what my PC runs like when I disable L2 cache. If frequencies aren't going funky, perhaps certain parts of the CPU are going to sleep that shouldn't?

Anyone U.V.ing?

I follow simone201's neak thread also, and read about some underclocking their i9100, so i tried their settings, getting mixed results, so I am wondering if anyone else is UV their i777? What are your settings? I am trying to match settings found on this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1647376 I cant seem to get 800 mhz down past 1050mV without freezing...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
Every device is different. The lowest I can run stable with my device is:

1200 @ 1200mv

1000 @ 1100mv

800 @ 1000mv

500 @ 925mv

200 @ 875mv

I've seen reports of phones that can run with every voltage 75mv lower than mine, and I've seen phones that need considerably more voltage at certain frequencies. Not all CPUs are made equal.

Test each frequency and find your lowest stable voltage, and then add 25-50mv for good measure, 's what I did.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 1weener:
True, phones are different. I run this for rock solid perfomance.

1200 @ 1225mv

1000 @ 1125mv

800 @ 1025mv

500 @ 950mv

200 @ 925mv

I can get it lower but will will freeze sometimes at 50mv lower on any given speed, so I know these sttings work ON MY PHONE. Try these with 800 @ 1050 instead and if it works well all day long, then try dropping a step and test that. It is hit and miss. You just have to be patient enough to keep trying to see where your device runs best.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
I probably don't have enough info...but just fyi, the only NEAK I can depend on on task's AOKP is 2.0.3 (which you very kindly linked for me recently). Both of the more recent versions cause FC's....the most common being on front facing camera. Somewhat minor I know but that became my first test on the new kernels when updating AOKP builds.

That's from full wipes and a few variations of governors. Didn't know if this was common to anybody else (haven't seen much in this thread) or just the "my phone don't like it" syndrome. Just find it odd that from one NEAK to the next it could change that much for my phone. Anything I can look for?

Edit: I've also tried fluxxi, which seems to be less problem causing, but prefer NEAK just because it seems simpler for people like me who don't like to mess with to many settings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 1weener:
Strange, 2.0.5 is much more stable than 2.0.3. Did you do full system wipes? You should try Task's AOKP build. It works great with NEAK.

Also, anyone know if there is a vibration strength setting with NEAK, or is it in the ROM? I know I saw it in xxtweaker. Is there no adjustment in NEAK?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cdjaney:
Thanks for the attempt at helpful info, but did you read my post? ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] visuelz:
