Had a random reboot while screen was off on 8.33 - Neat ROM 4.7.

Performance profile apart from:

-nightmare gov

-300mb zram

Also had some randoms reboots 2 days ago too (with darkness gov) but no log for these.

News update!

Kernels 8.34 and 9.34 ONLINE!

This is MAJOR update from 3.10.RC5 Google Android kernel.

470 files changed, 38287 insertions(+), 15686 deletions(-)

and some updates from Sammy STOCK/Modded SG4 Kernel! (thanks to AndrieLux)

Big thanks to Alucard for helping testing and updating new code.

(added also TAR kernels to use with ODIN)

Change Log:

*Updated WIFI driver from SG4 kernel. v1.61.56

*Updated massive code for DM partitions (move apps to sdcard)

*Updated massive code for Power Manager from 3.10.rc5 google android

*Updated massive code for BLOCK and FS that responsible for all I/O throughput!

*Updated and enabled latest and most advanced I/O GOV - BFQ v6r2!

*Alucard made big code change/improve for nightmare and darkness govs.

*Updated ARM compressions code.

*Updated LINARO 2013.06 GCC 4.7.4 kernel builder.

*Updated with 3.0.84 main stream patch.

*Fixed old bugs with video drivers for STOCK and CM/AOKP ROMS!

*for CM/AOKP only! i have fixed the mass storage and MTP, now we have CM-kernel code for that.

for 8.34 kernel, that part can't be changed, or stock ROM will loose mass storage support.

*Updated latest CM-KERNEL boot INIT and other new init changes.

*Ported some stock code updates from SG4 kernel.

*Alucard fixed performance gov! now if used, 2 cores will be ON non stop.

*Fixed Color tuning on boot and for first ROM boot default.

*Alucard cleaned Pegasusq CPU GOV, now it's much better, and working with our Intelihotplug code.

*Updated all I/O GOVS and set BFQ as default I/O gov for awake/sleep.

*Updated kernel global code from 3.10.rc5 for ptrace function.

*Updated power regulator code.

*disabled slide2wake in all profiles.

*Alucard made changes in GOVS tunings and all profiles tuning.

*Added data/cache partition light fix on boot, in case partition was not unmounted cleanly.

This kernel has huge update for all critical functions!

and power that now saved is just awesome! with performance profile i see -9ma/h on deep sleep! and sleep time is much higher. (less wake-ups)

kernel is very stable.

I recommend to set nightmare as main awake gov! about sleep gov, you can leave ondemand or other that you like.

Big thanks again to Alucard for hard work and help testing!

Any major risk of losing data from the SD card like in 9.33?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] edzamber:
Just flashed 9.34 with Gs2KernelWipe before and no data loose.

Posté via Vanilla Rootbox
[Galaxy S II Android Development] officiallyme:
just out of curiosity then, why didn't you change the default gov in performance profile to nightmare?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] leechseed:
Just flashed without any script and nothing got los;)

Minor bug (?), setting gamma shift below -30 (-35,-40,..) leads to red alert :D well noone gonna set it this low i belive.

Just notice in 9.34 default awake io settings wasn't the ROW. It was CFQ even though ROW is what it should be. Is this any thing wrong ie mismatched name or something
[Galaxy S II Android Development] big_bum:
Did you even read the changes in this kernel?

First of all, it's bfq, not cfq, second, you are in the wrong thread.

ROM bug.

just tested on rootbox, and nothing, just dark screen.

Not sure if i should post here. Dorimanx there are two versions of ROMs with linaro both are version 4.8 wouldn't be wise to have version 4.8 in our kernel also? I know that there is the issue of sstability that you he stated but isn't it better to try keep are version as the ROM versions which exist in other to get better performance? Also according to those two cooks they don't have any problems with linaro 4.8 . thanks... :) this new version of kernel is really perfect I can UV a lot, great battery and no sod.

wifi keeps losing connection. i still have a blue wifi symbol but i cannot use the internet and after a few seconds the symbol kind of flickers and everything is ok again.

maybe something with the sleep/wake is wrong?

gonna try turning of the wifi optimization feature (not sure what it is called in english... supposed to save power)

sure ill do that but i asked coz i was on siyah kernel and when i installed the latest i had a redish screen saying i was warned and it didnt work.. i tried resetting cache and dalvike cache and fixed permissions it still didnt work
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eskriminal:
kernel stable =/= rom stable

just because those roms work with it doesn't make it stable for kernel

(by the way I believe dori tried it then reverted from my memory of his commits)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dampierre:
I'm using 8.34 since yesterday and I can clearly say, it is very stable but, deep sleep works very very bad. I lost 15 percent of battery during the night on airplane mode. There are al lot of wakelocks. My wakelock app says, for 40 minutes Android system used the cpu, made 243 wakelocks, and google services used for 11 minutes and made 110 wakelocks. I'm on neatrom 4.8 and I'm using a very clean Rom, no bloatware at all. I did not know how to report it, so If it is wrong, I'm sorry.

Add: I'm also facing with the problem that "officiallyme" wrote. The wifi problem, but phone is still seems to be stable.

I'm not one to really trust benchmarks, but the change is pretty big with 9.34 as opposed to 9.33 and not in a good way.

Other than Hyper. Other govs like zzmove, nightmare, darkness, peg, gave me freezes. Only hard reboot helps. Hopefully log provides something.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
i think you have some other problem, and kernel is not the reason.

or broken hardware or software.

nothing in your logs, and all govs work.

you have very limited choices.

1. stock kernel

2. old kernel that stable for you.

it's not your first post about kernel is not stable...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
then help building better one.

or move to stock.

I just lost my kernel settings again, didn't had any SOD or freeze, soo annoying, I wish this kernel were like the original Siyah that doesn't lose the settings after an issue.

Everyone is moving on board with you but I am still stuck in the past. Guess I will keep trying releases. Thanks for advise!

former wifi driver worked really well. what exactly does the sg4 one offer that the previous one didn't?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Frozenthunder:
How do you know? Despite thousands of tweaks and much work the battery life still isn't significantly better than stock kernel. Devs should rather focus on stability but I think because of all those tweaks and gimmicks we will never have a stable kernel. 9.33 was almost perfect now 9.34 is freezing/lagging sometimes and some people have WiFi problems.

Those thousands of changes dori spoke of literally did nothing to improve battery life or performance for me in fact everything got worse. Useless changes really.

And you will never get significantly better battery life no matter how perfect the kernel is since the screen and WiFi/data will always consume battery as well.

tl;dr: devs should focus on stability.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] olyloh6696:
Simple. Don't like. Don't use.

How dare you say that dori's hard work on code changes is useless?

i think have a stable kernel would be good for the s2 community

Well I would, but this is the only kernel that comes in question so I have to deal with it. I just don't see how this is supposed to benefit anyone.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alb3rtt:
Alpha? Man you should see alpha ROMs / kernels. [MENTION=272791]rkoby[/MENTION] knows about this as well as our old phone only ever got to alpha. Alpha means not all the hardware is working. Everything works flawlessly for me and my dad and my sister and 4 of my friends who I have flashed their phones (all on dorimanx 3.34) so I don't think that this is an alpha. I've never had an sod, as well as them. It is so stable. I have no idea how people manage took find so many issues. Maybe they tweak the wrong settings or their ROM is buggy or something corrupted or something.

If your not happy, then leave. I'd like to see you or anyone else make a better kernel.

It is actually very insulting to call this kernel "alpha".
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Unexist6969:
[MENTION=2376110]dorimanx[/MENTION] maybe I found the problem of wiping storage data (affects only internal sd & ext. Sd)

There's a bug in recovery in "backup & restore"

When you choose "backup format" (tar/dup) recovery get's rebooted automatically, and both SD get wiped.

Maybe it only happens after you flashed something, or it's conflicting with other kernel settings for backup format.

So for anyone facing this SD wipe issue, don't [highlight]WRITE[/highlight] to the SD, use a file recovery tool like recuva. And don't touch "default backup format" unless you like taking risks:)

Anyway BFQ is working great

You're right, but please don't speak on dorimanx's behalf.. thats not nice :angel:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] eskriminal:
a) I didn't notice this is dev thread, wouldn't have posted otherwise (sorry mods)

b) I wasn't speaking on behalf of dori, I was speaking the truth about developments like most kernels, and roms like rootbox, where the project is for and by an individual(or close to) developer themselves, and then they're kind enough to share with the community

in the same way bajee will include features HE wants in rootbox, so will dorimanx in his kernel, and I would have it no other way [MENTION=2376110]dorimanx[/MENTION], sorry if you feel as this person did, no intent to do so, btw 9.34 running great, on double darkness with my config, battery is significantly improved over 9.33, but too early to make a proper claim it's stable
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Kyuuba:
People talking bull **** deserves to be blocked from this thread so they won't add a nonsense anymore.

This people who are complaining because they want a phone running like an i7 CPU, overclocking their phone to the limit ignoring what Dorimanx said that the stability would be compromised of you do that, then those people are ****tards.

I am satisfied seriously with this kernel, haven't got a SOD since it was released and I also overclocked it to 1.6 Ghz and this thing haven't had a single freeze or issue.

To resume, this kernel ****ing rocks and we just have some idiots ignoring bashing the kernel because the don't have a single knowledge about what they're doing with their phones. I hope you guys stop insulting the dev who it's actually doing something he shouldn't since this device is old as hell and thank him for his support and that's what we should do. ;)

I had problems with 8.34 with Neatrom 4.8, but i use slim bean latest weakly with 9.34 with no problem. Incredible smooth with zzmove gov. Thanks dori.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
i will check this... it's not something that i can fix, if bug is in recovery..

but maybe i can mod something in kernel...

thanks.

about WIFI, for some devices new driver is not working, i have ported full sync to WIFI from sg4 kernel, if that will not help, then no WIFI with my kernel for people with different hardware then all the rest...

i will not go back, and i cant hold 2 drivers in kernel.

about people that want STABLE kernel, simple answer! use STOCK kernel!

i am not your personal developer, i will do what i think is right.

and if i do bad kernel, we all test, and delete it, and move on, if good one.

then save it for time that we need 100% stability, and keep testing the latest when we have time to this.

i build for FUN, i am not Samsung employe. so quit the demands.

thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fatjoez:
thanks for the hard work dorimanx

I have your kernel 9.33 on Carbon Rom,

Before kangbang kernel (zzmoove gov + zen sched) = 24hrs battery

Your default is HYPER+ROW

Can you tell me which is best GOV/SCHED for 24hrs+ battery?

Thanks again
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ph3n0mII:
To whom it may concern,

On DorimanX 9.32 and higher, I get battery battery life on extreme_performance profile with cpu and gpu overclocked and overvolted and up/down thresholds heavily modified, than i do on stock cm10.1 kernel at stock speeds.

IF you have CPU group 3 and get different results, you either have a bad battery, a hardware problem, dodgy apps, wrong settings, stale incompatible or corrupted files/settings, or you should learn how to set up a ROM or just get an iphone.

Sometimes when people have a trouble with simple things, i feel like saying "omg, just give it here i'll do it"

Everyone seems to have a different 'my way works better, trust me' opinion, but if you don't wanna go messing around with heaps of STweaks settings, reading long scheduler/governor info guides, or trying random 'secret tweaks', then for best battery life without hurting snappiness too much, use extreme battery profile with hyper+noop or hyper+bfq and leave the first 7 pages of STweaks alone.

If you don't like it for whatever strange reason, try something else but that would be the best place to start.

Most people i've seen recommending profile/gov/scheduler settings over the last year, seem to have little idea what they're talking about.:cool:

Now go away and stop whinging about battery life mmkay:angel:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] rainin:
Hi Dori,

Thanks for the kind reply. I saw the commit in GitHub for the full sync, waiting for the new kernel to be released so that I can test it. Is there any logs or information you need for you solve the WiFi problems? Personally, for my device the hardware for the WiFi module is from MURATA. v8.34 is stable from a performance point of view, its a solid kernel, but I wish the WiFi drivers were compatible with my hardware. Till then I have to go back to v8.14 which in comparison does not have all the bug fixes and new updates you have worked hard for v8.34.

Is it because we are using Broadcom drivers that those with Murata modules cannot work? I'm not a developer but just asking could that be the problem?

If you want I can test any work-in-progress versions of the kernel to see if it works with my WiFi hardware or not... I'm just waiting for the v8.35 as my phone is clean and ready for a fresh ROM install.

Thanks for all the hard work and effort you put in. Really Appreciate it. :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Seth25:
I think you are right, when my cards got wiped I had rebooted to recovery and created a backup and I'm 99% sure I went into "default backup format" setting.

Hope this helps in fixing the issue so nobody else gets wiped. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
hmm, strange, last driver that worked is also broadcom just older, i will try to understand what is missing, thing is that driver is huge, more than 25000+ code lines, i have very low chance to find the missing part, or just some parameter change....

i cant promise any thing..

CPU undervolting is still limited to 850mV :

Q1 : is it a hadware limitation? or did you set this limit intentionally ( in order to avoid SOD, and so on...)?

Q2 : I use SetCPU to control my CPU voltage since you did not allow lower voltage (800mV) to be set in Stweaks : is my 800mV undervolting realy effective when I set it with SetCPU or did you "hardcoded" this limit to 850mV, and so so, nothing can change it?
