well its best to flash around and see what u like best. shostock, aokp and phonebricker are really good roms that i flash all the time. when it comes to kernels same thing applys. flash around. some roms and kernels run better on different phones due to the way that they are made and the same can be said about undervolting but u shouldnt worry yourself with that right now. if you are running aokp or aosp roms then that is the only time u need to run the aosp kernel. and always google anything you dont know or understand. im sure u can find an answer to just about any question u may have. happy flashing:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

@Wonner

Did you flash 2.0.4x on AOKP 5/1 build? If so, hows it running? Are you using the associated apps, Neak, Tegrak's lulzactive app?

Y U HAS PINK UNICORN AVATAR?:p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
I am - I was one of the lucky testers last night :D - it's running beautiful. I'm using the paid NEAK app just to stay consistent, and when I was testing I plugged and unplugged from charger, dock, and PC with no lockups using lulzactive, performance, conservative, you name it.

And I don't really need the touch part, but I really like the CWM recovery with NEAK.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
I've been running the latest NEAK for the past few hours on performance & vr and no lockups or reboots and my phone has never been faster. Also my phone seem to be in deep sleep more often. Hopefully it stays this way :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] eep2378:
Ok nice I'll probably flash later. I had random freezes/lockups on the first iteration eventually resulting in swapped SD's and couldn't mount sd or emms in CWM. I ended up having to reflash entire rom(AOKP) again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] wonner:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] J-Wall:
I am running Task's AOKP 5-1 and Neak AOSP v2.0.4x. When I use SetCPU it says I am using ondemand Gov but when I go into Settings<Performance it says I'm running lulzactive. I was wondering if this is normal, and which one is correct?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ktoonsez:
Could be a ROM issue but I could be wrong. SetCPU should definetely be the right one as I know that is reading the kernel set files. But it should say lulzactive unless u have set on boot set for SetCPU and have selected ondemand. Wow that was alot of sets in one sentence:D. Set the settings for the set and see if the set sets, lol:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Koizuma:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] J-Wall:
It actually won't stick with ondemand after a reboot even with set on boot selected, it just goes back to lulzactive. But now that the USB bug is fixed I don't think it will matter.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
Do you have any other apps loaded (or tweaks selected)? I had Voltage Control installed and it was overriding the settings until I unset things in there.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
FYI just had an SOD while plugged in - timing suggests that it was when a text came in...on default settings (lulzactive/vr). Watching it now, I'll let you know if anything else happens (loaded a theme and did some screwing around this afternoon, so it could just be a glitch).

EDIT: Just locked up on me while plugged in :( on pattern lock screen, hung during recognizing pattern, then on home screen, hung and rebooted. Going to reflash kernel to make sure the theme didn't do something goofy, and keep watching...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dimatchka:
Flashed the new neak kernel and had two lock ups thus far.. once while watching a movie on a train thought it was no big deal and a second one just now by simply unlocking the phone. Running aopk.. any one else having lock ups? :confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
I'm SEVEN POSTS UP - seriously, dude, you're gonna keep hearing it until you start reading a bit first.

and I haven't had a problem since: A) reflashing kernel after flashing Blue Infinitum theme, and B) noticing I had SetCPU set to start on boot with different settings, turning that off is probably what fixed it. I had voltage control running earlier too - too many tweak apps :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dimatchka:
I did read :p im not overclocking nor do i have any tweak apps running. I just had another lock up as you mentioned after i plugged my phone in. Gonna go back to 2.0.3xb had absolutely 0 issues on it :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
I don't overclock or tweak, I just use them to set the governor. Depending on which kernel I'm using, I use different apps - probably shouldn't, but I never know if I should only use NEAK app for NEAK, if one of the others is better for CM9 kernel, etc. so I switch off.

And it just froze again - it's definitely Go SMS that's doing it. Going to switch to Ondemand again and see if that takes care of it.

EDIT: And SOD again. I'm restoring nandroid from before theme install - it was rock solid before that. I think I'm going to end up apologizing to ktoonz for mucking up the water.

what is the proper version to use for aokp roms (task)?. Thought it would be aosp but it just froze my phone.

So far so good for me as well. The previous version did not get along with my phone at all no matter what settings I ran. So far I have had no freeze ups while charging or random reboots, both which plagued my last experience with the kernel, very nice work!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dev997:
Camera shutter lag

I have been using this kernel with Turkbey v6 for past few days ... everything is working perfectly .. more smoother than OCed Entropy and Siyah... but only have one qualm.. There is a little camera shutter lag of about one second after the pic is clicked and its saved in gallery.. not sure if its due to ROM or KERNEL ..

Have any1 noticed that on Turkbey with this kernel.. FYI I also experienced lag issues with Siyah on newest tukbey too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] simone201:
Maybe it is rom related, there are no changes at all about camera

Flashed the latest release last night. Unplugged about 1am woke up at 7am at 98% battery. Deep sleep was working fine but when looking in BBS under kernel wakelock Im seeing "alarm_rtc" at the top, not sure what that is?

I'm using Neak app to set AFTR mode and EXT4 boost. Default scheduler and governor(vr/lulz). Voltage control for minimal UV(CPU and GPU). I've found that SetCpu can be somewhat quirky with these newer kernels that accommodate so many tweaks/settings(Siyah/ Neak). Too many apps with their hand in the pot so to speak :D

Otherwise this kernel is rock solid, no lockups, freezes, Sod's to speak of and its blazing fast. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jank4AU:
Great experience with this build so far:

Looks like my phone may not like lulzactive/vr I still seem to get a fast drain in those settings I'm on aokp 4/28. Is this the same for anyone else? I've had the phone fully charged twice since installing kernel yesterday. I'm also seeing my scrolling stick more with those settings is that happening to anyone else as well?

noop with ondemand may give better performance from what I have read. I don't know if it's better or worse for battery, but neak is being reported here and on the task thread as giving the best battery life available. Also, it hasn't had a chance to settle down/in yet, so try it for a few days.

Are you using those uc settings through neak configurator? Or set CPU? Are you using any screen off profiles?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
This latest release has simply been amazing so far. My phone did not like it so much previously, I had to run ondemand & noop with the prior release which did give me great performance, but I still got reboots and freezes. My phone with just about any other rom/kernel also would drain if I left the wifi sleep policy set to always be on. However now with lulz/vr and wifi set to never turn off I am getting amazing battery life and my phone is very speedy. I'm using Voltage Control to set the governor & scheduler. I uninstalled the free neak config app since it seems useless unless youre going with conservative.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jank4AU:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Scrambo:
okay, so i absolutely love this kernel. it works amazingly and my battery life is amazing. with that being said, i experienced some (almost comical) bugs on my phone today on this kernel.

Background info:

Task's AOKP 5/1, Latest neak, stock settings (besides SLIGHT UV) with VC

BUG#1: I went into the movie studio app that comes on Tasks Rom just to see what it did. I messed around with it for about a minute or two, but after i tried to close it, i got stuck at a black screen. the weird thing is, the touch screen still worked, because i have it set to show a little circle wherever i touch, and it was showing up. It just seemed like the entire phone wasn't responding at all besides the screen. Weird.

BUG 2: This one MAY have to do with the huge crack running down the front of my screen, but this is the only time it's happened so far and ive had the crack for a while now. This time i was in my browser typing stuff in, and the touch screen "kept" the touching circle on, even when i lifted my finger off... the circle wouldn't move, unless i touched the screen somewhere else, but after i let go it would come right back to the same spot. Weird #2

All in all though, just a fantastic kernel! can't wait for the next release :D

Now, why they are STILL not getting it, I'm not sure :D

---------- Post added at 07:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:08 PM ----------

Not seeing anything like that - if you're having a delay before the phone shuts down and reboots to the GS logo, then recovery, then some service/app must be having a problem shutting down. I'd use a task manager to see what's running right before you select to boot to recovery, and troubleshoot from there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] EVIIIL:
I think I was just used to seeing the Siyah with mic swap and I was on little sleep. We can all be on the short bus together.

Excuse the ignorance -- is there a good FAQ for this kernal?

I'm wondering what the team suggests for the many applications it seems I should download with the kernal. I have the NEAK configurator for the governors, but don't even see lulz as an option, and from there I'm wondering if there is a preference for the CPU Voltage controls or should I just use SetCPU.

Other than that I'm wondering what the creators use for their settings, and if the AOKP ROM Control can control the voltage or should I only use SetCPU or some other program.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
He does have a point - at various points now I've had the NEAK app, setCPU, and Voltage Control all installed, and frozen or unfrozen depending on what kernel I was on. But I can't tell either whether I could use NEAK with other kernels (or if I should) or if having more than one will conflict (well, actually I found out they DO, when I had VC and NEAK both set to different things), and especially if there are times you do NOT want to use one or the other.

So some kind of comparison (of those and any others) or simple recommendation would be nice. I'd work on one, but I don't mess with voltages, GPU, or any of the fancy stuff so I wouldn't do it justice.
