every one and his eyes :)

this why there is an interface to mod color! it's cool tweak we have :)

so every one can mod as he like and be super happy about it,

in boring times, i will make an survey and the most used color settings will be default for all.

but now there are many new things to add and tune,

so i am going to do some work, till i fall a sleep, and continue at work, after i finish my job tasks.

good night all :cowboy:

i can confirm.. about wifi issues.. i have them too.. its turns off automatically

Charging my phone to flash this kernel in few moments :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] zenosteam:
i can't confirm that no issue with wifi here ,i have updated some apk's from google play, i let wifi run on idle no disconnecting at all
[Galaxy S II Android Development] stormtroopercs:
With the new cortex wifi setting the problems are arising. Turn it off and WiFi is fine
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pigmachine:
whatever you did to 5.54 it made my jorte sync with no pronlems.. since april! (or jorte calender might work by it own for the first time?)

Will dig into it right away!

EDIT->(still want negative toggle OFF as standard.. and let people knowing what they do, turn it ON if they for some reason want it)

EDIT-> Camera is totally 'random' flash-free now.. great work :good: )
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cybernetus:
On my phone I don't have this problem because I disable the Auto WiFi option on CortexBrain.

I will test this kernel today and tomorrow and I post my experience and battery time here.

On siyah 3.5.2 I have a good experience ( tip of @lyndonguti ( guy, you are here too ? :)) ) , but I have an interest on this kernel.

Reading all the opinions and posts here, I believe this is the kernel I search to use :)

And ... one doubt :) I use the battery profile ( choose on CWM ). Is the best profile to start testing this kernel ( for me, the most important thing is the battery life ).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pigmachine:
I used battery in the earlier siyahs too.. until they started to suck! Make the screen piss-yellow and undervolting with at least -50 .. more or less neutering it.

Since then I've been a 'default'-guy.. with my own small personal changes
[Galaxy S II Android Development] cybernetus:
I will start to use my personal setting after I know more about this kernel.

I start to use this today and my first try is with the battery profile. I still charging my phone now to put my battery on 100% and test the battery life :)

On my phone, the undervolting on -50 gives me some freezes on other kernels. I use, by default, the -25 option.

On Extweaks I see many new configurations and I will try one by one :)

Thanks for your return @pigmachine :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pigmachine:
Just in 'ninja-mode' Since I still use RR 2.6.1 .. and call it a pretty stable platform, worthy of comparing kernels on. I will wait with the JB until it's as stable.. and by then I have an S4 I guess :)

Just not into dual-booting with 'Pre'-releases, just to see what's new.. As I just read a little here and there.. and don't feel compelled to take the step.. wasting 2.5 GB of my free-space, with something that I have to support and and assist on, So I'm in a semi-coma/retirement... just trying out Dori's kernels... and relaxing :victory:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] THE RED BLUR:
What are u doing. U said the same thing over at the siyah thread .

U need to give kernel over a day to properly test no matter which Kernel it is and on 2nd cycle u should get more accurate results.

Anyway I hope u can give us a good comparison report to know the difference between siyah and this kernel and use this to get this block on source code released.

I had mine installed, but when I rebooted, supersu was gone. I've read about it somewhere about what to do when it "disappears" after reboot, but I forgot where. Maybe I'll just flash supersu via cwm - the last time I did that, superuser disappeared.

but you have something to wait for :)

and i will remove the negative tweak by default on, no problem :)

now i am going to sleep my last 3 hours..:eek:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Pigmachine:
Just go to better battery stats on first row, choose alarm once, to make it accepted by SU or superuser.

On second row , preferable 'since unplugged'

then left button (after at least a few hours 5+ .. else it's almost meaningless) choose more and dump to file. It will go to the 'root' of your internal Sdcard.

Sent the file as an attachment and it can be easily read.

Extweaks stats/settings don't follow it that report.

But it's easier to see what sucks battery if you have major drain! when sending it as an attachment.. if you want your email addresses to be private.. use notepad++ (on the computer) and change to xxxx@whatever_you use to sync (search for the @ with notepad++, 99.9% of it is a synced email, you see it when you search) mail it to yourself, of copy it to computer..

I reflashed and did a factory reset to solve parameters in BRIGHTNESS CURVE with ExTweaks not working on 5.54 but they still remaing...

Actually, 5.53 has a same problem but it's very undetectable because MIN_BL works better than 5.54.

I don't know why :(

EDIT : and... I surprised about when checking logcat with adb. I disabled android logger in ExTweaks but logcat with adb works well?! umm,,,

[Galaxy S II Android Development] THE RED BLUR:
Gets some rest mate. Great update. :)

Oh thanks for removing negative on as default on next release as I didn't care for that also. Who actually uses it?

If you could do the same and turn off bln as well that would be appreciated.

I would understand not to if more users want it on. But I never use it myself.

I must say supersu really seems better then superuser for me at present with its last few updates. And really does make my phones handling of root appear faster.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] THE RED BLUR:
Yeah after the whole auto rooting process. You need to manually install supersu from play store and update binary then u can freeze superuser.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] marbulas:
Thanx a lot but your tip can't explain why installing supersu with flashing update.zip doesn't root the rom :(

I think almost every bugs in 5.54 depends on busybox attatched ramdisk of kernel. (Just guessing... not a fact :D)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] THE RED BLUR:
Oh for gods sake :banghead:. In order for the root to work u should have superuser installed first before doing any uprooting in extweaks.

Then it's ur choice to use supersu afterwards.

If this still doesn't work then reflash kernel and do the usual kernal clean and fix permissions.

Or use ultimate kernal cleaning script.

Hey dori I`m having issues with reboots when my phone boots up i have to leave it running for like 2mins till media scanner stops without touching otherwise i get a black screen and frreeze. Would an extweak app reinstall fix that? When it reboots after the freeze my extweak settings gets reset too.

Hello, i am on the offial samsung rom 4.0.3, i have redownloaded and installed the 5.5.4 kernal and the samthing happens. i cleared the delvik and cache and tried again and the samething. but if i flash the 5.52 or lower, it works like normal. i had the sme problem with the siyah kernal, it just freezes on the samsung boot screen if i flash any siyah greater that 3.1.2. if i flash siyah 3.1.2 and lower, i have no problems?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
i dont think so. if i revert something in INIT or drivers, we will lose support for new ROMS.

so it's time to update or stay in the past with kernel that still work.

there is no turning back. not for me any way :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
no such issue here,

or wait for new update or try to fix/change your rom.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] THE RED BLUR:
I'm puzzled by these problems people are having. :confused:

If instructions for installing kernal are followed in op and common sense of cleaning delvik and cache and fixing permissions. Most of the time issues resolved.

I have posted many times here for people to swap superuser to supersu or vice versa and update binarys. (could u add this in op please dori)

All these things solves most problems.

Issue of stability and performance is long gone here.

I have not experienced any crashes or fc's. Maybe because I'm following these procedures or maybe my rom is just great or maybe because kernal just plain awesome. :D

...better still, if the test run I'm doing now keeps up this same pace, this is turning out to be THE BEST kernel ever that I used....

smooth, responsive, excellent sleeping behaviour

My record up to now, when using the phone relatively little, is a prognosis of 3 - 3.3 days on a charge.

Prognosis now : 4 days! and that's a first ever !

Really hope it holds up.....

My biggest compliments to the DEV! Dorimanx....for this excellent achievement....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marbulas:
@dorimanx

5.54's parameters in BRIGHTNESS CURVE from ExTweaks doesn't work.

I flashed rom again and did a factory reset and flashed kernel(5.54) and get root and reboot system,

but still those parameters doesn't effect as real.

5.53 doesn't have any bugs like these...

hi mate.. do you have manual setting in ex-tweak?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] ipmanwck:
Just downloading it

I wonder if you could start putting the download links closer to the top ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
i will see what i can do, i thing that since i have update video driver, things changed, and more work needed to restore the functions.

this is minor problem.

No need to post about it again, i will try to fix.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] johnbeetee:
hmmm.....that's a bit hard to explain...I usualy use a lot of other settings, not readily available in extweaks

more or less everything that DEV's forbid, i look and see how I can turn that to good use, and it starts with undervolting (which is very device dependant...) and using other parameter settings for the governor's I use (HYPER/Scary or Pegasus/Conservative), and I even use an other value for smooth_scaling parameter (much lower than 800, which is minimal in extweaks).

With prior versions, I did get the impression that charging was a little bit hotter than it should be, but if it's more than usual on your side, my experience in the past is that it's due to the fuelgauge chip acting up or superuser not behaving as it should ; don't know how or why, but giving these both a kick in the ass, mostly helped.

For now I would advise HYPER/Scary as governors, load_h0 20, load_l1 15, sched_mc 2, cortexbrain : I have all but brightness and wifi_off_when screen_off enabled and cortexbrain enabled. Don't use BLN, because most of the time I have the phone in a pouch with no holes for the backlights (so kind of pointless to use it). Besiedes that I have undervolts on th GPU and CPU. HYPER parameters in this kernel version are a lot better than before (still I use different), and the only setting you don't have readily is smooth_scaling to a much lower freq. , which I do to keep the CPU from reving up to much, needlessly.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
Hmm, what like above the change log?

then people will not read it :)

and later post questions, so simple and already answered.

i will think about relocate the links.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nasty_z:
@DorimanX Could you tell me what steps to take when updating your kernel? Is uninstalling ExTweaks -> formatting cache and dalvik-cache -> flashing new kernel version,okay?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marbulas:
Bravo for your work!

I'm looking for about 5 to 6 kernels to use and I think your kernel is best...

Your kernel is my style :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
can you share more dev info, so i can mod the extweaks to be more helpful.

about low MAX freq, it's risky action, we can lower it to 200Mhz min/max on sleep.

but we can get SOD! as Samsung instruct as not to lower MAX freq lower than 600Mhz. (well actually 800! but i cheat)

Turn Screen OFF

connect with adb and go to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/

and type:

grep "." *

you get all CPU info, and you will see that cpu sit in 200 or 100(i use MIN 100!)

and not ramping up.

thanks for info.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
no need to uninstall extweaks, it's only app that load my config!

if you like clean config for 100%

in recovery go to last option and clean profiles!

then set profile you like, or it's will be default.

then install kernel,

Reboot! nothing more needed! no perm fix, no cache clean!(non sense action!)

no dalvik clean! it's for app, how it's connected to kernel, i have no idea?

and why people do that!

if you install new rom, it's good to fix perm and clean dalvik,

but it's all no needed for kernel!

after boot, wait 1min, then go and see extweaks options if you like.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
I do my best, thanks!

And for all other complements :)

happy to deliver good product :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] celeritykid:
had downloaded it before the changelog is being updated^^ thx a lot for the update
[Galaxy S II Android Development] johnbeetee:
I think you misunderstood :) ... I'm not using very low MIN freq's, I always use 100-1000Mhz, so 100 minimum. (I did experiment in the past with 25 and 50 Mhz on siyah, but in my opinion these are totally useless on this device)

What I meant was the smooth_scaling parameter (which is set as minimum 800 in extweaks). I mostly use 100 or 200 to prevent the governor from jumping to this freq first and then upwards on heavy load : instead it will make more use of the freq_step value of the governor, and for this freq_step value i usually put some more conservative values, so that I get a more evenly distibited use of the freq, spectrum, and this in combination with more early thresholds for dualcoring, it keeps the freq's more in the lower area and makes more use of the second core, when needed. I believe this gives a more efficient use of both cores at lower freq's, and still feels responsive enough for normal use.

(I should also mention that I do a lot with Tasker app, so I'm able to program different profiles and change these on the fly if needed : for example if I start Extweaks, Tasker automatically changes my max_freq to 1500Mhz, and it loads in under 13 sec. ; after I close Extweaks, it puts max_freq back to 1000 (or lower if choose) )

I can give my governor parameters, and you can test these, but I also think it's a more personal taste issue, but maybe you can get a general idea.....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
sounds good, i will add to extweaks option to reduce smooth_scaling till 100Mhz

it will help all to save more power.

thanks.

Hey Dori,

i think it was a bad decision to remove sammy 4.0.3, because there are many many custom Roms with 4.0.3.

Can't you delete sense4all and readd Sammy 4.0.3?

But when there is no comeback in sight, i will respect your Decision and will upgrade, but i really don't know which Rom :(

I've copied the default profile using this procedure:

1) Flash Kernel, clear primary and secondary dalvik, boot to primary.

2) After waiting 5 minutes, open ExTweaks set the values, and BACKUP NOW in BACKUP/RESTORE tab

3) Copy the backup settings to SD

~ # cp /data/.siyah/default.profile_backup /storage/sdcard0

cp /data/.siyah/default.profile_backup /storage/sdcard0

4) Reboot to second ROM

5) Copy backup settings from SD

cp /sdcard/default.profile_backup /data/.siyah

6) wait 5 minutes open ExTweaks and RESTORENOW in BACKUP/RESTORE tab

7) Reboot

I needed two reboots to gain root on second ROM.

The good news is that both of my primary and secondary ROMs (Resurrection Remix Jelly Bean 3.0.1 and Stock I9100XWLPT) are working great with this kernel!

For those people using Samsung stock, you can update to 4.0.4 or custom (I recommend Resurrection Remix 3.0.1, if you have some app that you can't live without that is not JB compatible install Resurrection Remix 2.6.1)

I don't had any kernel related issue in 5.53 , voku's 5.53 beta , 5.54 and 5.55 , and with very good batery life despite heavy using the phone and all the social networks and locations services active.

Again Thank you very much Dori and Voku !
