@experienced users: I know Dori has solved the music stutter problem with a boost on wakeup kinda function & the stutters are completely gone but only on wakeup. It still happens when the screen goes off everytime. Can somebody please confirm this?

They are illiterate idiots if i may say so.

@Siddarth Malik: stop spamming the thread with your stupid questions & making a fool of yourself in turn. Even after 2 recognised developers (1 of them elite mind you) telling you to ignore benchmarking results because they are a carp & you still can't get it then I suggest you get yourself enrolled into a school for the specially abled because your special & let nobody tell you otherwise.

Please find out the different categories GPU's are benchmarked on & then come back.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] gokhanmoral:
I am sorry, I think I made a mistake. I should have called the people who constantly use benchmark apps and defend them to me as idiots. and I am not sorry if that statement includes you, it's your call to be one of them or not.

I challenge any "recognized*" people to this: make a kernel and I will make another. if mine give less benchmark I will leave being an elite* and just leave XDA.

because it doesn't mean a sh*t and there are lots of ways to increase those scores.

I will not itemize my reasons in such a pointless discussion.

you are defending a benchmark app and asking why the score is low whereas that same benchmark app gives you different result after flashing dorimanx kernel and flashing back siyahkernel because of the changes sqlite lib...

but as I have experienced hundreds of times in the past, there is no way to convince people if their view about the facts are diverged & their knowledge is limited.

so, you either believe me or find someone to challenge me :P

It's not rocket science. I think we're all bright enough to know if our S2s are running smoother. I don't be benchmarks to know, plus everything appears to be working, so to all those that are obsessed with benchmarks, chill out. It won't go any faster!

Thanks Dori for a great kernel and appreciation for your hard work

don't kill me, benchmarks are useless.... but are fun
[Galaxy S II Android Development] flixblixclix:
@Siddharth..... Your point is absolutely right, But the way you asked the dev is not right. even i noticed this difference with stock rom and CM10, and i usually do benchmarking test too but the features are limited with stock while root gives u admin access to tweak your performance as per your requirements.

As my favourity dev Gokah bro told, its all in the game, but i really say, performance of device is much higher when compared to stock rom... and usually dorimax is doing great job with his kernel as he likes only performance performance performance.....

and also yes... if u can believe the third party benchmarking app and then you must believe the words of kernel developing dev.... you can ask question but not like warning,,,,, already Gokhan bro is going away from s2,,,,, atleast support him for what he gave you..... sorry for a para which is just rubbish if u don't get it what i mean....

Oooo Crap! :mad:

Ok, i want to settle this down right now!

GM made great kernel, he goes for safe side and do all RIGHT as a corporate CEO!

so Siyah kernel is made to be stable and without tweaking the code to deliver more Pointless SCORE.

GM is a respected Elite Dev, and welcome here any time.

all his posts here, should be respected, and i agree with him about benchmark and stability points.

We can tune kernel to deliver huge score, but in HIGH cost of stability and data loss!

In stock kernel, there are some changes present to tune kernel to show faster benchmarks in cost of battery drain.

in Siyah kernel its balanced in a way GM want it to be.

In my kernel i have used some tuning and hacks to deliver more performance.

That is what i like for my self, and all that here like that too,

We had really BAD times with SODS and problems, BUT all was fixed and stable as should be. (and fixed by removing some crazy tuning!)

and in the same time Siyah Kernel was stable and great for all.

So all the benchmarks are mean nothing! if you see LAG in games! tune GPU freq higher + voltage but expect more battery drain!

GM is who gave you that OPTION! not me. (and many more)!

If you see LAG in kernel operation boost the CPU, or use performance profile.

all the rest is not relevant.

GM, we are waiting for your master peace! :)

i know some parts of what you are doing, and i am happy that you have fixed some really good parts.

People need to give respect to developers, (and 90% of people here in this thread are My FRIENDS! and i feel great to read my thread every day!)

So people that want to mess the FUN! STAY OUT, You are not belong here!

Thanks for reading :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] big_bum:
Benchmarking gives static performance. For example you could gain speed from compile flags for floating point benchmarkings but you really don't gain nothing because linux kernel doesn't use much float to operate.

Developers will understand what I'm saying, benchmarkers not.

Also, keep in mind that you could add points to benchmarking by forcing 2d renderng, or using another governor, like performance or using bfq instead of cfq/noop/etc,etc. Oh and since a lot of the source is community driven, you can't complain since you didn't contribute. ;)

It's a free world, the sources are free and open, you could always compile your desired kernel if you don't like Dorimanx or Syiah or CM or another kernel. Here in Romania we have a saying: "Nu poti sa ai totul mura-n gura" which translates in "You can't have anything and everything without work, expecting that it will fall from the sky".

What governor are you using as screen on/off ? & music player

also setting offscreen freqs too low might cause stutter or it could be something with the thresholds too aggressive compared to screen on/off gov.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
You may not have known the Dorimanx is based on Siyah, after our chats today, I can see you are learning your trade, I won't criticise you, you have just lived your learning experience on the forums today, hopefully some of the churn of questions will have helped some others understand the creature that is Rom/Kernel development.

One golden rule I stick by is nothing is for sure, always back up a good install before trying anything else, then you can enjoy the fun of it more, but never expect things to always be better, just like life itself, it can be random at times :)

I must say 7.8 has no issues for me. Smooth as silk. Now my S2 has gone from app testbed to daily phone.

I noticed though that init.d scripts get run twice. Probably once via ROM and once for the cortex. Noticed while testing a native app I start through init.d

Secondary ROM: DXLPFwithS3mods

Kernel: Dorimanx 7.8

Benchmarks

OK, I read all the debate about benchmarks and I think that one important point got missed. The Scientific Method is based on predictable and Measurable results. Now, I appreciate that comparing one kernel with another with benchmarks taken at different times and with different memory environments does not provide a scientific comparison, but think that users need some kind of benchmark to evaluate changes they are making. For example, it I change a governor in Extweaks, I'd like to be able to run a benchmark (without changing any other variable) to see what impact my change had on performance. Perhaps our benchmarks are inadequate. Perhaps they should be run right after a reboot to give a consistent environment. Maybe we need some standard practices for using benchmarks. But stating that benchmarks are useless bothers me.. If they truly are, from a scientific basis, then we should delete them from our phones.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Firstly I am looking for the rom to feel stable and responsive, then test its resilience, I use the same 4 benchmarks every time, Antutu, SQL RL Benchmark, NenaMark2 and Quadrant. I'm looking for consistency between the results prior to thinking something has improved.

If all 4 show similar upward trends on the relevant components then together with user experience over 24 hours gives me additional confidence in claiming settings and Kernel/Rom combination's could be stable enough for daily use.

If there is a better way, I'd be interested to hear, certainly would be nice to know how the OP does his tests for resilience of his kernels, Benchmarks do at least offer some stress tests?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
Really! :eek:

should be one time.

on boot.

i have one line that order to run init.d scripts.

i didnt think that ROM code can order that too...

so we get X2 runs,

Hmm... it's a problem... in some case...

i can remove my line that order the run, but if ROM not supporting running init.d scripts, then users will not get there stuff working...

i need to think of something to prevent dual run.

or remove my support of running init.d scripts, and hope that ROM do that,

my kernel has nothing running from init.d, i have my own folders with scripts :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AN7 OverClocker:
The 7.8 kernel with the same frequencies on cpu n gpu(and basically the same settings) is getting 3+ less fps in nenamark than the 7.6.

Have anyone else noticed anything like that?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Unexist6969:
Benchmarks are only useful for the people that run them, cuz they use the same environments, too compare them with other settings/tweaks of their own. Each device acts different & every person use their phone differently. but don't take it too serious, if you got a bad score, benchmarks will always show different/funny values no mattter if you got 10/100/1000 apps. & Look at the N4 and LG G, both s4 pro krait cpu 1 scores 7-8k other 5k.. That quadrant is optimized for 4.04 ICS and not 4.2 JB.

The best is too compare the smoothness/performance with diff benchmarks/games/ui and tweak according to your

usage

. Try to get the best battery with good performance..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
Benchmark apps, are a tools for DEV and for User.

For user to see how cool his device is! WOW, high score!

but it's not really reflect the real experience.

User have to just use device and see if all works and acting as he likes.

if not search if there is a solution long time now! if not REPORT. :)

for DEV, (me) i am doing my tests after adding and changing code, with one old app (quadrant advanced 1.6) and some GPU fast test app,

to see if something changed for WORSE, if i see that now i lost gpu power, and i am using performance profile, then i made a wrong setting or some error somewhere.

and if i see high drop in CPU or I/O speeds, then it's also Alert for me that something is WRONG.

so i cant just work on kernel development without having some global testing + i test the real behavior of device in simple conditions, and if all ok,

then i feel that all as i like, and release for testing,

Others will do different tuning and get lower performance but good battery, or reverse, and it's fine by me. the free of choose is yours!

so to compare bench scores with different ROMS or tuning, is pointless.

thing is that every bench test, give us different result, so i am always care only about average, if in "my normal average scale", then all good.

if not, it's only my fault and i need to get it back to "normal" :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] metalgearhathaway:

so i decided to try out 1600 mhz since 1500 was stable... and guess what, sod :( i set it using setcpu, so the phone boots, then freezes after like 10 seconds (not enough time to underclock back)

any way to help? i forgot to make backup before hand :x
[Galaxy S II Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
I always find that even 1500mhz is a false economy, my phone strains and takes a performance knock rather than an increase.

Each phone seems to have its own sweet spot, mine definitely is 1400mhz, stays stable and responsive, yours could be lower or higher.

Test your 1500mhz vs 1400mhz, see if like me you get more performance with the moderate overclock instead :)

EDIT : Actually no sorry I'm wrong

You can try via adb while starting in CMWR and delete setcpu apk (just a though I never tried)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alkspo:
i know what you mean, but the thing is, phone freezes 10 seconds after booting, since i set 1600 too high, so i cant change the clock speed

i fixed it though, i flashed old version of dorimanx kernel which doesnt support 1600 , go to app and change it back, then reflash new kernel, no data loss :D

---------- Post added at 10:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:17 PM ----------

thanks, i tried that, but it didnt work since i set the clock using setcpu, no worries though, all sorted ou :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Phew, good thinking on the kernel change!

Now interested to hear if 1400mhz performs better than 1500mhz for you too :)

Btw, are you undervolting? I found that -25mV did not effect performance or create FC's, however -50mV definitely hit performance and caused a handful of FC's.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] alkspo:
1500 performs around the same as 1400, nothing noticeable, but battery drain is definitely there

and yes, i undervolt, same finding, -50 makes games like nba 2k13 laggy, so i undervolt by -25 :p
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:
LOL! FORMAT YOUR PHONE!!!

Just kidding! :)

you will need to kill setcpu data! before it load the 1600Mhz to max...

so boot to recovery

mount data via MOUNT MENU.

connect via ADB

type:

cd /data/data/

rm -rf com.mhuang.overclocking

sync

cd /

now unmount data via recovery menu,

Reboot. :)

should be fine now.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] kantjer:
Hi Dori,

If I understand your post right, the kernel itself doesn't use any init.d scripts. If that's the case you are only fixing shortcomings in some ROM's

Why not make init.d support a ExTweaks setting and set it off by default so everybody using a well designed custom ROM doesn't suffer with running dual init.d scripts.

Just my 2 cent.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] dorimanx:

It's unwise to have an option that could break your phone. U got to understand if an option like that is there some people might be tempted to use it without understanding the consequences because the option is there in falsely thinking it's safe.

If u want such things upgrade ur phone to something that can handle it.

It has no place here.

Cause I'm not going to support and I think Dorimanx ain't going to support issues raised by this option.
