[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Napalm Candy:
I had same problem, now I configure wifi to disable with screen off, also when I remember if not I am at home I disable wifi, and enable again when I need it. So... I don't test again.

Today I charge battery to full, and after 2 hours with only 3 or 5 min of use the battery still in 100%, I never seen before! :)

I'm using MIUI ROM that is better for battery saving than stock ROM, also this ROM it have preinstalled siyah.

PD: So the problem with wifi and 10% drain battery per hour, I had with MIUI ROM

hi gokhan

is it possible to add a feature to allow the leds to switch on only in the dark...Gingerbread 2.3.4 had this but i think since then its not been in any firmware...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Napalm Candy:
I want to report a problem that a problem that I have learned to live (and I think we all accustomed), I am talking about "Force close", Occasionally, an application (none in particular) produces a message that it will close after a period of a few seconds of freezing.

I was using the exact ROM than my brother in our phones, he has unrooted with stock kernel, and he say that only one time has seen this message. So, before rooting my phone only one time I was see this error, never in gingerbread and one time on ICS with maps.

After rooting (Neak and siyah), I see this message about 3 or 4 times at day, I'm using default profile, never I overclocked, and no underclock (it is unnestable my CPU with underclocking)

I'm sure I'm not the only with this error message. I will try for a time to un-root to see if the problem is be root.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ammar1514:
try fixing permissions from recovery....in siyah i think its under the advanced option in recovery.....also make sure you untick "force gpu rendering" in settings - developer options....

Went to fluxi.kernel and lockscreen issue resolves. I get lockscreen freeze only.when.wifi is.on and this kernel.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
I can now reproduce the problem when using the device in dual-core mode.

and yes, it is related with wifi.

it doesn't happen when using single core.

I remember someone said that it happens in dual core mode and thanks to him (cannot remember who he is).

can you please try to reproduce it by using second core because I will publish 3.2.6.4 which will be a possible solution for that issue.

I want to make sure it fixes the issue before committing the fix.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
maybe the new wi-fi driver? I saw that a lot of people had some problem with it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] furkanaksin:
When it solves, we cant use dual core ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbeetee:
I believe that was me...I've tested all version published today and they all had that issue

I'm willing to pre-test 3.2.6.4
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyLegend:
Got it just now again.

How do we activate dual core mode to test?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] confusedmuse:
You can use

ExTweaks

or

2nd Core
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] furkanaksin:
Which section on extweaks?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbeetee:
normally using pegasusq you're in dual-core mode ; if you want to test using single-core to see if it eliminates the freeze somehow , you can set pegasusq hotplug_lock parameter to 1 and test
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
you can set default governor to ondemand and set hotplug mode to dual-core.

it is not possible to force single or dual core modes in pegasusq with extweaks yet
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Napalm Candy:
I have off "force gpu rendering", but I will try to fix permissions.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] furkanaksin:
I set ondemand and hotplug mode firstly second core always off. But it hasnt gone. Still freeze. Then i set second core always on. It still happen. Freeze.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
it is supposed to freeze more with dual core mode.

Hi Gokhan 3.2.5.2 is working perfect no freezes, maybe you want to start there? Just an idea, I added the new Pegasus settings from setcpu and I am getting 7hours screen time no problems with wifi and wakeup
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mahdi786:
On 3.6 the wifi issue I had was that when I unlocked my phone it will show me I was connected but there was data being transfered, someone also said the screen freeze only happened with wifi on not when they had it on 3g (wifi off)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
Yes 3.2.5.2 doesn't have that problem but the fun is to fix it not to bury it :-)

And after having a feedback that even cfroot has it I don't think I will revert

For some reason, I can't seem to use Mobile Odin without getting kernel panics. And stupid xda and tapatalk apps don't allow uploading of files so I can't upload the last_kmsg till I get to my PC which is rare these days.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PedroMRP:
Why don't you use dropbox?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Gokhan. Do you remember the setting you used on 3.0b7? That was the best version of ICS Siyah I ever used, on battery and peformance. I would like to use those settings on the newest version. BTW, touch sensitivity on ExTweaks doesn't work on CM9. I think vitalij values conflicts with the CM standard. [Or something like, sorry]

I flash Siyah v3.2.6.3 and now I have the lockscreen issue... So with 2.3.5 I don't had (but I had wifi ever ON)

I'm not sure, but I think this problem appears when configure "wifi off" when "screen off".

To reproduce, configure wifi off when screen off, and leave phone sleep automatically sleep after minute (if you configured 1 min to screen off). Then after few seconds, try to unlock pattern.

When I tried with WIFI ever ON, I can't reproduce the problem.

OT - I will never understand people that bought such a beast of a phone, that could easily replace PC in lot of things, including browsing, uploading/downloading files etc., which refuse to use it as intended. We have Chrome, Opera Mobile/Mini, Firefox, Boat browser, Dolphin..., and you can use either of them for browsing, replying on xda and uploading files such as last_kmsg, and yet you use some buggy featureless wap-alike app that's just preventing you from enjoying full web experience. Plus you pay them for such a molesting. ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] #illidan:
Go to extweks & under misc tab click on remove root. Ensure auto install root is ticked & then reboot your phone.

I'm using -50 gamma levels & I am not facing the issue that you are. Maybe you could try resetting extweks profile & try it again but I'm not sure whether that would help.

You could echo those values using an init.d scrpit so that those settings will persist on reboots.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] #illidan:
Well its pretty easy

1)open an empty text file

2)insert header #!/system/bin/sh 3)put the parameter values you want to set followed by a semi colon, i.e., in your case the last 2 lines

4)save in /system/etc/init.d

5)name it to whatever you want & reboot.

This should ideally work.

Same issue here still, sometimes freezing for 5-7 secs. Running latest CM9 nightly (2705). I don't have WiFi connection issues but it seems to lag only when it is connected to WiFi. Is there any kind of log which could help you here? Logcat or something else? I'd be happy to post what's needed.

For the rest, super kernel ^^

Indepente.t of governorI am on latest version. The battery life with pegasus is excelent but still freezing when wifi is active. No freezes at all if it deactivated or on 3g. It happens only when wifi is on indepentent of governor or core.

The lock screen lag bug seems to be happening on other kernels as well including the stock cm9 kernel as it is being reported on the cm9 discussion thread so it doesn't seem to be a kernel issue which gokhan could solve.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] genivos:
I can tell you for sure that I don't have the lag with the stock kernel. Never experienced that, not now not in the past. Running CM9 already since March 30.

Since 2 weeks ago I started using Siyah because of the dual boot function and since last week I started experiencing the lag. So, yes, it seems to be related to the Siyah kernel.

Just to make it more clear: I tested yesterday the whole day with a stock kernel. Switching between WiFi on/off. No lag the whole day. This morning I installed the latest Siyah, lag again.

---------- Post added at 12:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:51 PM ----------

+1 see my previous post, never experienced lag with the stock CM9 kernel either.

Also, I saw people in this thread with NON CM9 ROM's (Wanamlite for example if I can recall) experiencing the same lag.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runedrune:
Regardless of whether you experienced it or not, lots of people are now reporting it in the CM9 discussion thread so it affects stock kernel too.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Josuhu:
HINT! Check your internal SD/LOST DIR

If you have been using dual boot, then you should check your internal SD/LOST DIR!

I have freed over 4 GB of memory from LOST/DIR as I have noticed that sometimes the CWM dumps the second rom files 2GB + 100mb in there even if you have deleted the second rom in CWM.

I dont know if I am the only one but this has happened twice to me.

Could someone tell me if this is the way its supposed to be ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] genivos:
Hm, you're right. I see that now in the thread there. Will revert to stock to see for myself if I have it or not. Still strange for me that I didn't experience it either with stock but always with Siyah (I don't blame Siyah, cause I love it ;-) just trying to find the cause).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diemadedrei:
well, at least for me it looks like a (siyah) kernel thing, because I NEVER had that before and i havent chaged a thing but the kernel. The moment I installed the 3.2.6 (and later versions) the lockscreen freeze started.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] genivos:
yeah, that's what I thought also until I saw the latest posts in the CM9 thread. Going back to stock CM9 kernel to see how it goes and if the freezes are gone or also present. I never had them before with stock kernel, as I said in earlier post.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runedrune:
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but the only change I see in both kernels that could have anything to do with it is the merging of the wireless driver from the N7000 update3 source. But that's lots of changes so still doesn't narrow it down much.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runedrune:
Uh. No one had the issue with 3.2.5.2?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runedrune:
That's because it started with 3.2.6. Like I said before, doesn't matter if you didn't experience it with stock kernel. There are people on stock that are experiencing it too.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] genivos:
I had the issue also with CM9 and 3.2.5.2, before that with 3.2.4 everything was fine .. but .. that's how it was for me. Busy reverting to stock CM9 now, latest nightly.

---------- Post added at 01:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:18 PM ----------

I can now confirm, already after 10 minutes of running stock CM9 (nightly 2705, not the latest which I saw was just released), that I have the same issue with lagging lock screen :confused: I didn't experience it yesterday with stock CM9 (that was nightly 2605 .. but ok).

Read my post :) I have it now WITHOUT Siyah kernel, running on stock CM9 now (don't mind my signature, didn't change that)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbarol:
Wifi: It started when I was running Litening Rom 3.1 on their stock kernel, continued on 3.2. I then switched to Siyah 3.2.6, with Sensation as my primary rom (LR as my secondary, but I dont use it) and the problem continues.

Do you know how I can check the drivers? It says i am running baseband XXLPS. I have not changed anything in the configuration (AFAIK).

Battery: I have been using my phone for the last 7 hours, and am at 29% now (down from 100%). I have attached the dump from the last 7 hours. Ill do it again in the morning after fully charging my phone before going to sleep, and leaving it unplugged over night.

In another thread someone reccomended flashing Siyah v3.2.6.3, so ill try cleaning the kernel and flashing that now, and will let you know if it fixes anything.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlkaDragos:
Hey. Just flashed SiyahKernel v3.2.6 2 days ago on a stock ICS ROM and had 2 times a strange behaviour. Once when i unlocked device, and once at some random moment when looking through phone. It start to lag, then stuck, becoming inactive...screen goes off after time-out but can't use any buttons or actions. Does somebody else had similar issues? Thank you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pikachu01:
I can see SMSBackup+, Gmail sync, Facebook sync, Gtalk, Samsung SNS sync, Titanium Backup services, Maps location services (Latitude?) with about 1 1/2 hours of screen on. With no deep sleep at all. Basically your phone didn't sleep in the last 7 hours.

It could be that the wifi drivers drains more battery, but its mostly due to the phone being awake all of the time.

Read the last few posts. Everyone is experiencing this since the N7000 wifi drivers were integrated into 3.2.6.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbarol:
Ok, so ill post a BBS dump after letting it sit tonight. Also, I just flashed the new update, EDIT: WIFI is still messed up.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlkaDragos:
Well, i did that but, i don't really have lag...it's like extreme lag, phone completely stuck. I can't remember if WIFI was on or not XD, but i think it was after closing it...anyway i think it's related to what you've said. Thank you for quick answer, hope will get a fix soon. :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Syrus01:
Hello erveryone,

I have some problems with Backlight Notification and I hope someone can give me some advice.

I got BLN up and running fine, but my basic problem is that my battery is running low over night because "notification_timeout" is running longer as it should.

My ExTweaks BLN Settings:

BLN activated: yes

NOTIFICATION-TIMEOUT: 30 Minutes

BLN EFFECT: breathing

LED-TIMEOUT: 6 sec

LED-FADEOUT: yes

LED-ON-TOUCH: yes

LED-VOLTAGE-LEVEL: 3000 mV

Today when I woke up at about 10:40 am I noticed that my BLN was on, so I checked my phone. I had exactly one notification which was an eMail I received at 8:16 am. That means BLN was on over 2 h although notification timeout is set to 30 min in ExTweaks.

So i did some more intensive testing today with the timeout settings.

My conclusion is that the setting 1min, 3min, 5min and 10min work as intended. BLN stops as it should when timeout is reached.

But when I set it to 20 minutes, the notification stays for about 60-80 minutes.

And set to 30 minutes, notification stays for hours.

I don't know if this is a pure kernel problem, or ExTweaks problem. I'm just seeking some good advice how to track down the issue, or perhaps someone can confirm the problem.

Thanks in advance!

I'm about to flash MIUI as 2nd ROM....

So, from the 2nd rom menu, flash as normally and then before restart, install siyah again on the second rom as well... am i right? - i don't want to get a brick and i couldn't see a wiki/howto anywhere on this subject... I'm just guessing... :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlorange:
Indeed but unless you have the technical knowledge. It can be summarized with following.

- it came from Samsung, leaked perhaps?

- it's a on demand based governor with built-in "awareness" of multi core chips. Thus doing a better job than hot-plugging and making it redundant.

- it's used in the sgs3, I'm not sure but I believe the code as it came from it's source was written for The quad core sgs3 chip so it's been floating around between the talented dev community who have been modifying it to work properly on the sgs2.

- Gohkan discovered it on a Japanese developers GIT sakuramilk. It made a brief appearance on a very early beta of Siyah but was removed and added to GM's long to-do list only to return now fully functional (we hope:))

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mutalisk:
OK, no rouge app then. Nevertheless, as 200 works fine here and for others, still my advice: reflash ;)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] confusedmuse:
Just reflashed... no difference.

500MHz-1200MHz scales far better than any governor i've ever tried.

I always prefer performance over battery, but 500MHz minimum clock is too extreme even for me.

Ok, then i have to use another governor. :(

I thought battery drain didn't only depend on the mv but also on the frequency? If you were right, it really would be stupid... Can anybody say something definite to that topic?

Does

66mhz - 800mV

save more battery than

133mHz - 800mV

???
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bleuxeon:
to me the only benefit of using a lower frequency for the very exact same voltage is that your phone may gain some degrees down witch is not bad for the battery.
