:laugh::laugh:...I do apologize...allow me to rephrase:

...no spectacular changes that could account for any instability,.. other than that: brilliant!...:laugh::laugh:;)

but..seriously, yes, this is the first version of siyah that is behaving rather mysteriously in some way in the manner the consecutive versions react to one and other...really weird

I'm even back on superuser 3.1.3 and my old BBS (due to nandroid restore) and all seems ok (no problems whatsoever), so I'm still not satisfied with all possible explanations I've contemplated, but I think I'm going to give it a rest now

just let it roll, and maybe something will come drifting up to the surface....

EDIT: guess I spoke to soon....now it's the wifi acting up again, and causing more battery drain...hmmm.......bummer...:crying:

(personal choice: reverting back to 3.2.7.1 ; I'll just take along the good changes (most are scripts anyway, and try them out on 3.2.7.1....)

CWM image

Hello everyone !

Was wondering :

Does someone tried to replace the background of CWM and boot in res/images/icon-clockwork.png ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tungstwenty:
The sources are available at https://github.com/gokhanmoral/ and here is a post I made earlier with the general steps needed to compile them.

The current version works for 4.0.4, except for an issue with camera not displaying the preview and something related with bluetooth, I think. There's no fix for that yet.

I had no problem on 3.3.3b,.c and d no UV and OC for me. Before you changed back to 3.3.2. Try this: 1) removed root as shown in attached.

2) boot into cwm recovery, go to kernel related option, removed

unit.d script.

If you need to flash a kernel, used mobile Odin or allianceOTA for flashing.

Hope your problem solved.

Anyone know what deleted_wake_locks is in BetterBatteryStats? Noticed this and can't figure out what causes it. Lasted 30min on WanamLite 12.2 and Siyah 3.3.3d. Couldn't find anything useful in Google/XDA searches either...can anyone help?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tungstwenty:
You most likely have at least 2 different BBs installed:

- there's the v1.20.0-cm9 at /sbin, bundled within Siyah's initramfs and that can't be changed without recompiling the kernel

- you can have additional ones installed by BB Installer, that could go into /system/xbin, or whatever

It's then a matter of precedence to know which one gets used when invoking the commands without a specific path prefix.

Apparently, $PATH includes /sbin as the first entry and therefore the 1.20.0 version will get used, unless specific apps or scripts decide to call /system/bin/... (or even their own bundled version, like TB and others)

---------- Post added at 06:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

Since you're using 3.3.3d, you should see 2 entries called "deleted: XXX" (not p0rn, they should have the actual names before they were destroyed). They might not appear if there were KWLs deleted that didn't live long enough to generate > 0 stats.

KWLs deleted before the last 2 ones will be summed up in this "deleted_wake_locks" pseudo-KWL, just to aggregate the totals of old ones.

This is most likely related with WiFi, as the 2 KWLs "wlan_wake" and "wlan_rx_wake" are created and destroyed whenever WiFi is turned On and Off respectively.

What kind of battery lives do you guys have? I've heard people saying Siyah is conservative but I gotta say it's not for me. My battery Dragon is about 2% / hour and usage drain is very high too(regardless of rom, currently CM9, just for the rec).

I do love Siyah otherwise! It has excellent performance and I couldn't live without the dual boot feature.

Also,I was directed here when I was asking why won't my data work on CM9 in CM9 nightly thread. So you guys have any advice? I've roaming on, sui that's not the problem.

Just tried it out using script manager... but it gives me the following error: not found: line 2 and line 9: syntax error: unexpected "fi" (expecting "then") !?

Does this script only work with siyah kernel or with others, too ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbeetee:
Turns out scriptmanager is a little bit picky about the syntax used in this script, although it is correct. I think you'll have to rewrite it a little bit to use with scriptmanager.

You can execute it using a terminal emulator and type at the prompt:

sh myscript <enter>

myscript being the name you gave the file (use full path name)

or

using rootexplorer and tapping the script and in the menu choose "scripthandler"

Be sure to execute it only once, or else you'll get multiple instances of this script running simultaniously.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
Just used "Search this thread" button. Sometimes it helps :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravermichl:
thank you! just executed it using root explorer. how can i verify if it really works ? :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pikachu01:
I think it's due to that person not saving the file as a Unix file resultig in CRLF markings at the end of the file (though not visible with some text editors).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbeetee:
if you have terminal emulator installed, at the pormpt you can type:

ps <enter>

and go through the list and you'll see it appearing somewhere, meaning it's running

to evaluate it's effect, that's a matter of see and look if it makes a difference in battery consumption; this might be noticable, but it might also be marginal.

that is indeed a possability! I always use notepad++ running under windows to save my scripts, to avoid this problem ; you can use an option to visualize end-of-line markings and check whether it's only a LF (li(u)nix) or LFCR (windows) ending
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravermichl:
Found something stated [dynamic hotplug]. Is it this one? Pushed your file in init.d folder gave it the right permissions and rebooted (file name is "13hotplug"
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbeetee:
the name you gave it, would be the right one, in this case '13hotplug'

if you look closer in ths 'ps' list, you'll also see the 'cat.....' command

which is waiting for the event to take place (in this case waiting for the screen to turn off)

like I explained in an earlier post, most of the time this script is just waiting (and doing nothing) for the event to happen and then it executes whatever is in between the corresponding if-statement
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravermichl:
mhm..cannot find it then. maybe my init.d folder isn't executed !?

just executed it via root explorer, but couldn't find it either :(

---------- Post added at 05:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 PM ----------

using this to execute it gives same failures as with script manager...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbeetee:
then it's highly likely that it's what pikachu01 indicated a few posts earlier (see also my post after that...)

did you copy and paste the script using some windows editor (maybe notepad?)

these editor's tend to save it in a text format (windows) not fully compatible with unix/linux scripting

if this is the case, try using notepad++ for windows to copy and paste scripts

it's free to download and use...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravermichl:
ok..next time! this time i donwloaded the original script from the thread metioned in your first post and now it works !

thank you!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbeetee:
It will be a good excercise to try, but I think it will be pointless.

The image you are talking about is part of the initramfs of the kernel.

This is a file system re-created everytime you boot with the original filesystem-image packed within the kernel (thus containing the orignal png image you want to replace).

So if you really want something else (image) appearing at boot, you'll have to extract the initramfs from the kernel, replace the image, and then repack it again into the kernel. There are threads explaining this, how it's done, but if you want to go to that extent, maybe it's easier to build the kernel yourself using GM's repositories and changing the image from there.

(besides, it's a matter of personal taste, but I happen to like that image :) )
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravermichl:
Sorry, but i have some more noob questions ;)

The script won't start via init.d folder. Do i have to do anythin else than pushing it there?

And after executing it manualy i can find it in terminal after typing "ps" command. But when i turn the screen off and on again its gone after typing "ps" command again !?

/edit: starting it with script manager now works, but now i can't see script running in terminal i think !?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tungstwenty:
2 additional tips for notepad++:

- On the bottom right part of the window (statusbar), you'll see whether the current file has "Dos\Windows", "UNIX", or "Macintosh" line endings. You'll want UNIX for this, obviously

- To change the line endings for open files, menu Edit, EOL Conversion, UNIX. Activating the visualization of EOL markers can be useful, but it's easy to miss mixed line endings so make sure to convert the whole file.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbeetee:
that's weird...the way the script is programmed, it's an endless loop...so it will keep on going forever until you kill the proces or reboot (and it is not started again by yourself or present in init.d)

if it runs manually, it should run in init.d directory (did you change the file's permissions to rwxr-xr-x, once it was put in init.d ?)

other than that, it's hard to tell what is not going right on your side....

I've checked here many times, and it's always running.

(another side note: i think you're using the one from eugene373's thread?

that one is ok, but it only works for the 'traditional' governor's and not for pegasusq ; mine was adapted for use with pegasusq) (just compare the actions between the if-statements...)

EDIT: maybe the list from 'ps' is a bit blurring (being so long...)

try this: ps | grep xxx

and use instead of xxx the name of your script (or part of the name) ; it should appear, if it's there...

try also : ps | grep cat

and you'll see the wating clause of the script appear (if it's running...)

and have a look at Tungstwenty post above...for some great extra tips for notepad++ ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ravermichl:
Seems like none of my custom scripts in init.d are executed. Maybe it is a rom problem (using rootbox 1.6 wit fluxi kernel).

Its not a big deal, because i set hotplug mode in xxtweaker to enabel second core only if treshold goes above 90 % ...

But for now i have to execute all my scripts (i'm using one which sets reduce_power to "1") via script manager.

Only scripts set are executed are the ones which came with the rom itself, when enabling them via rom control.

Maybe it has to do something with rom control, that the init.d. scripts aren't working. I already posted it in the rootbox threat...

But to make it clear, your script will also run with script manager, doens't it? But then i can't figure it out in terminal with the ps command !?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbeetee:
It might be kernel related, if init.d scripts are not executed.

I don't have much experience with scriptmanager, but normally it should execute scripts just as if it were executed manually in terminal emulator, so yes.

If you execute the script in terminal emulator by typing:

sh full-path-name-of-script <enter>

and you don't get any error messages, then it has been executed ok.

And with this script (endless loop) it should appear in the list produced by the ps command, which shows all running processes.

In some cases in terminal emulator you have to get root permission first to execute some scripts ; you can do this by typing:

su <enter>

the terminal prompt should transform from a $ sign to a # sign meaning root.

Maybe you can try this, see if it makes a difference.
