I installed the kernel today

VPLL mode is disabled, so I guess it's using the other one, right?

All I did was install the kernel (I was using 4.1.5 before this one) and enable BLN (well actually BLNWW)

You asked "rom"? I suppose you meant if kernel is compatible with Samsung JB 4.1.2. So confirm Siyah kernel is not compatible with Samsung "test" JB 4.1.2 rom yet. I believe that DEV will update the kernel soon.

Hi

I'm running on my sgs2, siyahkernel 5.0.1 with as 1st rom, stock ics 4.0.3, and as 2nd rom jellybam 20121118.

Both roms are running fine, but i'm having fc's in jellybam when using google apps... Phone crashes and play store closes right after startup.

Anyone an idea ? Is it related to the android id or the g-account?

Hello,

quick question: I have a strange problem with WiFi.

When I connect to my (home) WiFi network, after some time I get no connection to the internet (WiFi is connected, but browsing is not working); if I try to disconnect from the network, and connect again, I can't connect anymore... :crying:

Then, I have to reset my modem to connect again (also from another phone, and from the PC, I can't connect).

I already tried setting "Never" in the WiFi sleep policy, didn't help...

Any idea?

Thank you in advance...

go to recovery then 'Wipe cache/Dalvik' then re-install the Kernel once again, then reboot and check:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
As far as a kernel is responsible for WiFi connectivity (has WiFi drivers built in) it might be a kernel issue however:

1. You haven't clearly specified on which Siyah you are on

2. At least on latest Siyah kernels like 4.1.5 and my current one 5.0.1 I never experienced such problem

3. If you claim you can't connect your phone, the other phone neither your computer to the network it isn't rather a kernel issue but your home WiFi network issue.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NovaMa:
Thanks; anyhow, I already did that several times... installing the ROM (I didn't reinstalled the kernel again, tough...)

1. right, sorry. :p I'm on latest Siyah 5.0.1

2. ok

3. yes, it could be. I just wonder why this happens only with my phone, as I can stay connected with the PC as long as I want, without problems... when I connect with the phone, it seems that my WiFi home network "crashes"... :confused:

Could it be a ROM issue? I'm currently on JellyBam rom; I never saw this problem before (on the stock Samsung rom).

Thanks to both of you.

ROM compatability

Hi everyone, I was curious if anyone is using this with the task650 AOKP JB ROM. I have searched the thread and elsewhere and didn't see any mention of this combination, so before I flashed I wanted to make sure there wasn't some compatability issue I should have noticed by now. (please forgive if this is kind of newb-ish)

My only need to upgrade is to check if ver. 5 has any improvement for the analog volume output. Currently I'm using ExTweaks to boost the volume 16db to get it close to previous levels, which seems like a lot compared to those with the same issue.

Also, thanks GM for dishing out one of the best kernels for our devices for so long.

Hi!

I want to install SiyahKernel S2-v5.0.1 on my phone. (it is a Galaxy S II GT-I9100 with PFittech ICS 4.0.4 GTX Neutrino ROM, it already has "3.0.15-Siyah-s2-v4.0.1+" kernel. (BTW, why it has two version number?))

When i start installing it in CWM, it fails with a message: "assert failed: getprop..... Installation aborted."

I see the assert() in META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script.

I've tried to append a new instruction before it: ui_print(getprop("ro.product.device"));

It wrote me to screen this: "galaxys2"

So this is why the assert() fails, because this string is not equals to any of the listed.

Question: Is it safe for me to append the assert with checking to string "galaxys2" ??

Then it can go and install. Is it safe for me, or is this kernel is not intended for my phone for some reason?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
well regarding the first part the no v4.0.1+ is ur present siyah kernel based on the linux version 3.0.15 ma8:)

well why do u want to mess up with the updater script ma8, try to re-dwnld the kernel once again and flash it thro recovery and see:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
Have you played recently with build.prop file from /system dir? "ro.product.device" should be "GT-I9100" not "galaxys2"
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fenyo1:
No, i haven't.

Previously i had PFittech's Rarity ROM (Gingerbread, 2.3.6) on my phone, maybe it changed that?

(and i had a yellow triange on start, which i removed with some tool a long time ago, maybe it?)

EDIT: OK, i have found the reason i have "galaxys2":

PFittech_ROM_v1.0.9__GTX.zip/system/build.prop, line 18: "ro.product.device=galaxys2"

I don't know why PFittech set this value... (i hope not to avoid the user can upload a new kernel)

Anyways, is it safe for me to install this kernel? (with assert modification, or /system/build.prop modification)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
well there might be reason why PFitech has done so on the build.prop like some market issue or some apps issue, all u have to do is try changing it to GTI9100 and then reboot and see if everything is fine, after that u can try installing siyah and see:)

PS- make a nandroid bkp befor proceeding:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
Make nandroid backup first, then change "GT-I9100" to "galaxys2" by editing updater-script with eg. Notepad++ (make sure that line-endings are set to UNIX not DOS/Windows) and try flashing a kernel.

Edit: if this doesn't work you can do what Sun90 wrote - other way round - change in build.prop "galaxys2" to "GT-I9100". Save your original build.prop file before.

Edit2: BTW you should practice how to thank people like Sun90 who try to help you (there is a special way to do so on XDA)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fenyo1:
Ok, I've managed to install with updater-script modification. :)

I think it must be a ROM related, not hardware, because there were no such problems with the previous ROM, which was also made by PFittech: RarityROM Gingerbread 2.3.6.

I thought about trying an other ROM, but i want to try all alternatives before that, so ROM-change is my final trying.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
OK. Some questions from my side:

- have you ever had stable setup on this rom?

- maybe on previous rom/kernel versions?

- what about the others? Do they have stable setup on the same rom/kernel combo?

- do you have any UV/UC set?

- did you reset ExTweaks profile after flashing new kernel - if not go to CWM wipe cache/dalvik reflash kernel and reset ExTweaks profile, fix permissions, reboot.

- if this doesn't help might be clean installation of the rom required (full wipe + format system)

Yes, on RarityROM 2.3.6 (GB) - which is also made by PFittech - i had no stability problems ever.

As far i saw, i have not seen any posting in the ROM's topic regarding instability. (except me :( )

What is an UV/UC ?

I've just tried it, i have done all of it, but no luck, still reboots on CPU+GPU test. :(

I have installed this ROM with full wipe (what do you mean by "format system" ? Wipe cache+dalvik? If yes, i did that also on ROM-install)

I did a full wipe with format /system, and reflased, installed only a Root Explorer and the StabilityTest, and now CPU+GPU is working without any crash/reboot!! (its running for 12 minutes now)

OK, I've done everything which i also done before the full reflash.

And that instability is not showed up again.

So i still don't know what caused that instability. :(

Maybe it wasn't me, it's really a bug?

Or maybe the difference which produced the instability is that i didn't do a format /system with the first flash? (and i did on the second flash)

If i don't format /system on a new ROM flash, only a full wipe i do, can this cause an instability i experienced?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
Hi,

Normally a rom installer/script should do that for us but you never know. It's better to preper clean environment before flashing a rom to be sure that nothing from previous rom can infuence a new one. So, similar as you clean /data and cache partions it's also not bad idea to clean /system partition where all system files are installed.
