You've analyzed the problem pretty well yourself..:)

if your sd card is not inserted, the apps moved to it doesn't start..

maybe it's one of those apps conflicting with some other one (maybe also on sd, maybe in internal storage)

but it could also be that your sd card has some 'rough' spots on it not being read very well. have you tried backing up your data on the card and reformatting it?

and copying back data (be sure to backup hidden dir's also, or else you'll have to reinstall those 56 apps, or maybe that's not a bad idea to try also or move them back to internal before you backup and reformat...)

What GPU setup is the most battery friendly ?

40/133/267 or 100/160/267 ?

thx !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabx:
In 3.2.6, forced install of superuser.apk is removed.

I think it is not a good idea, as we are back to lots of FC's with Extweaks. I know installing superuser.apk can be done in Extweaks with remove/install Root, but I prefered the forced install.

Don't know why it has been removed.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loth77:
well... i tried optimizing the sd card but it hasn't changed much, i haven't tried to format it.

i was also thinking to buy a class10 card...

but class10 cards are slow on small files and there are quite much small files on the card... so maybe it would be useless or even worst...

but... why this doesn't happens with CF root kernel and just with custom kernels?

this is what i don't understand and why i still search a "kernel" solution
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbeetee:
...you do have a point there...

CF-root kernel is just a rooted kernel with probably little to no optimizations, probably standard stock + root.

so maybe you can try and configure siyah just as close to stock as possible (samsung defaults) and see if the problem persists

(things like ondemand governor, five freq-steps, etc.)

if it still doesn't work ok, then I'm out of idea for now...

there used to be an app-to-sd issue in the very early releases of siyah, but that was solved almost immidiatly in the next version...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apphoarder:
Hello everybody :)

This is such a fantastic kerel!

I have a question regarding GPU steps and thresholds in Default profile (v. 3.2.5.2).

Default freqs are 160/267/267- GPU threshold 2-down is by default set at 75% Isn't that too high? Shouldn't it be around 50%? (160/267 = 60% - 5-10%)

That is according to droidphile's guide:

"To calculate down-thresholds in such a way that overlapping is prevented, for a set of two freqs, find out what percentage of higher frequency is lower frequency, and reduce 5-10 % from the resultant value."

Or is this not considered correct/important?

EDIT: forget it, I see that this has been changed in 3.2.6. However, ExTweaks is crashing a lot for me now (I did the remove root procedure). EDIT2: It seems to be OK now after several restarts.

Also, under GPU tab in ExTweaks first it says "Voltage defaults are 950mV, 1000mV and 1000mV", and then later under Voltage setting it says "The defaults are 950mV, 1050mV and 1050mV". This should probably be corrected.

I have to say your kernel is the best which happened to my phone also it is not low quality... Its really good :D Thanks alot for your effort and time
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BAZZI_US:
Just short info for those who followed or answered my problem/questions the last days.

As you can see in my signature, I'm back on Siyah v5.0.1 again. So far with no lags. First thing after flash and "clear cache" was a full backup. ^^ I'm going to keep it under review, what action of mine might reproduce the mentioned UI lags, if they will reoccur at all.

By the way, how does Gokhan decide, which scheduller and governor is Siyah's default? This changed sometimes from version to version. Is it just random or a real advice for best "user experience"? ^^
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bogdan1980:
If i overclock gpu and cpu my s2 is stable with ondemand gov or pegasusq plus bfq, cfg iq.

If i use other iq sched or other gov phone freeze when overclock.

So, i think that ondemand plus bfq is best.

Galaxy powered by GM and Dorimanx
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BAZZI_US:
There's definately no general best. Freezing will occur in different situation, because of the different behaviours of the governors. Try synthetic benchmarks for real comparison of the governors!

Personally, I never really felt any difference between different scheds and govs. I just can see it, when displaying the CPU frequency. That's why I want to use the soup of the day by Gokhan and want to know why it was chosen. ;)

I did as it is exactly described, downloaded the latest version os Siyah kernel, no Kies running and tried to flash the kernel using Odin. But I got a "Failed" result from Odin, and now my phone has the screen "Error during firmware upgrade" and nothing happens. I can go to Downloading screen though, but thats it.

This was the first time I tried rooting this phone. It is from Bell (base UGLD3).

Any help would HIGHLY appreciated! I have no idea what to do now and I can't find any help either. Looks like I am the only one to have had this problem!

UPDATE: looks like siyah v5.6 is not compatible with my baseband (UGLD3). I tried latest version of CF-root and it worked
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jigen90:
Are you sure Odin did recognize correctly your phone?

Are you flashing 5.0.1 on ics?

Tried different USB port?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skully☺:
Hi Halfedelf,

I don't know what went wrong, but try to redownload Siyah v5.0.1 and the flash it. Note that Siyah v5.6 for the SGS2 doesn't exist. Maybe you flashed something else or the Siyah.tar was corrupted. Try to open the .tar using winrar or another program, to check if the download is corrupt.

If I'm correct UGLD3 is for the i9100M, while Siyah is for the i9100. However, here it states that i9100 and i9100M are identical. So, if LD3 is ICS (Android v4.0.x), then Siyah v5 is compatible.

In all posts where you ask for help, please name your phone model, ROM, kernel and other information that may be useful.

Edit1: there is also a Siyah v4 that you can try. If any of the Siyah's are incompatible (ROM won't boot), reboot into Recovery and flash the .zip of your stock kernel that you have already placed on the SD card.

Edit2: see here for a Recovery manual.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdonk:
Zero difference between the I9100 and I9100m other than the Bell bloatware. Sounds like you're on the stock bell GINGERBREAD rom.

Hi Gokhan!

I really understand your point.... you`re right.

A little difference would be if we give a S2 to you not waiting to you develop new versions, but as a manner to say "Thank you man".

If i had enough money i would do that. I would buy a new S2 to you, explicity saying that i dont excpect any commitment of you, but its a simple gift, with any second pretension.

But unfotunaletly i havent that money.... :(

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BAZZI_US:
I finally found something.

When I use pegasusq or ondemand, the UI gets laggy, when closing some apps or menus with the back button to jump to the home screen (low transition framerate).

Using conservative or lulzactiveq is smooth. Changing other parameters doesn't take effect. Neither GPU settings, nor others. Except the SCALING_MIN_FERQ of course. Above 300 MHz pegasusq and ondemand work smooth, too.

Anyone sees a link here?

Bazi,use nova launcher, is quite fast, you dont need touchwiz.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OGroteKoning:
Very honourable viewpoint, but not all will share it. Most people will unfortunately DEMAMD GM to develop for the S2 since they would feel they "paid" for the "service". The same fights will ensue like the ones at CheckROM. They received a lot of funds for S2 development and purchased a S3. People were livid and felt betrayed (probably with good cause). GM doesn't care for that kind of crap and chooses to develop for the sake of uplifting user-experience without feeling forced to do so. He can step aside whenever he wants to if he doesn't receive "payment" for "services" rendered, thereby having less pressure on him and his family. Respect to the great man for not bullsh!tting us...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
with the help of a friend (he shared his phone with me for several hours) I could finally compile something for JB leak.

BUT

I didn't have any time to test it on cm10 or add anything for cm10.1

so, it is only for JB leak for now.

AND

I didn't have time to test every detail neither. I might have done something wrong during the merge and some features may not work.

please test it and report.

I hope to release it tonight.

That ain't the point . I'm saying no point in saying there is a spare available when there is no confirmation and getting hopes up.

GM said already he don't want donations and things but If a person doesn't need the phone or its broken then he would happily except that.

But again no point on someone saying they will send this unless they really mean it.

It's like me saying if only I had a million pounds I would buy GM two sg2. But again I don't so pointless of me to post. :)

Edit.

Having tried the other kernel I mentioned earlier it seems that lockscreen freeze issue has been solved but glad to hear GM will use another wifi driver as the drain on wifi is an issue so that's good to know lyndonguti ;)
