Thanks Gokhan. Do you know if the Wifi can be improved so that you can have Wifi Direct and normal Wifi working as with the S3? or is this a chipset specific feature that's physically missing from the S2?

Thanks for your hard work.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
I am not an expert on that part and I did not look into the details.

but basically we have tons of wifi drivers which are supposed to work on both s2 and s3 but with some reasons that I don't know (hidden in the details of the code or the datasheets) some work well and some don't.

for example cm team has reverted back to old wifi driver on s3 because the new one in JB sources was having problems with wifi tethering..

I will just revert back to the old driver in v5.1...

I think that any GPU voltage above 1200 could lead to hardware failure if used long time. But someone more knowledgeable should confirm this - I just read about it somewhere, so not sure.

Hi GM!

I am a great fan of your work, thank you so much for your efforts!

Can i request a feature? The only thing, why i am not switching from DORIMANX 7.4.2 back to your 5.0i kernel is the extra headphone amplification setting (ANALOG HEADPHONE) that DORIMANX provides in EXTWEAKS. Is it possible to add this to your (hopefully) next 5.x release?

I am sorry, but i am listening very often to music - and that in a loud way... :silly: Metal never dies... :)

Regards,

Nico
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
if it does make a real difference I will...

I remember fluxi had that in his config app. but in those days I did not notice any difference changing that setting.

can anyone else test it and confirm that there is a noticeable difference?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
I'm not GM but I have one remark. There were a lot of guys spamming recently Siyah development thread with many kinds of minor non-dev related issues even being strongly encouraged to post these kind of issues here.

And I think you should be awarded by GM, because you are (correct me if I'm mistaken) the 1st one (or one of the first ones) who posted an issue here instead of in Development thread, which according to GM's statement:

is obviously DEV-related :D

Regards

Ps Don't worry GM is monitoring this thread too ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TR2N:
Hi GM,

thank you for your fast reply! Maybe i don´t understand you correctly.. Is there a setting in Fluxi´s Kernel-app? When i remember back, i didn´t had an option for amplification on CM 9 with Fluxi´s last kernel. Too sad, that he stopped working on it, but that was the point to switch to yours GM. :) And yes, amplification makes an big difference on loudness.

Isn´t it possible to add this feature from DORIMANX´ sources?

Thank you so much!

Nico

@Many: Thank you for the flowers! :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pilgrim011:
I find it interesting that even though I have asked several times (here and in Dori thread) what is the difference between your headphone amplification and analog headphone amp, nobody knew the answer. They were just repeating that it is cool or whatever, but nobody explained the difference between the two. And I have tried it when I was on Dori kernel - no noticeable difference. Although it seemed like it was a tad lower volume when using both amp settings together.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
I first saw that in fluxi's kernel, that is why I am referencing his name.

and I used another method (similar to voodoo louder) in my kernel.

and then advised dorimanx to look at fluxi's interface and find mic sensitivity and other settings...

so, it may be the same thing or not...

but I am not a regular cherrypicker. I don't want to clutter the settings with some non-useful options.

it is possible to add that feature from dorimanx' kernel sources and probably fluxi's commit is already in my repo and all I need to do is to get the config.xml entries. but I asked this in the past as well: is there a real difference?

and some people answered no.

I cannot test it now. and if there is nobody that can tell me "setting this and that device file to XX value together makes the sound better" or similar detailed info I will not add it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TR2N:
Hi GM,

it makes really a noticeable difference - not in sound quality, but on loudness. This is one of the first settings i will set on EXTWEAKS when i am coming from a full wipe. ;)

Maybe some people are using different head sets or media players, but i can reproduce it on my hifi rig and on my head phones. I am using PA 2.52 ROM with PowerAmp installed, and setting up the PowerAmp Equalizer together with the "analog headphone amplification" feature from DORIMANX is such a blast for my ears. :) So this setting is absolutley working well:

HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER is set to 3 DB, ANALOG HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER is set to 14 DB.

That is the way it is working for me. Maybe this is also a "workaround" for the e.g. CM10 "bug"/missing loudness situation because of the not public sources from SAMSUNG for the correct/proper audio driver(?).

So sad, that i am not a programmer, so i would do it on myself. Like i stated before, i love your kernel because IT IS THE BEST, but this missing feature is the reason i am on DORIMANX. I think, DORIMANX is a good developer, but i feel tiered to update my kernel every day and than i have to find out new things that did not work as they should. It is too much that DORIMANX is putting into his kernel - and i don´t want to be beta tester - amusingly said! ;)

Your base is stability, and that is one of the reasons i used SIYAH in the past. If you could add this feature into your kernel i am the luckiest SIYAH user you can get! :D

Thank you so much and all the best!

Nico
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
considering that you have 3 posts and all of them are related with this sound modification it must be something good :)

but I will wait for someone else to confirm it and advice on the setting..

if it is so good then I will put it in the next version for sure...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TR2N:
That is a word, GM! Thank you!

I can make a YouTube video, if you want, so than you can see that there is a difference (recording sliders with running music from MESHUGGAH) :D. You already said it - some people did not notice it/wanted it - but in fact - that is not "all". :)

I am a musician that consumes music as much as possible, so i can say, i have "audiophilic" ears. Maybe i can reproduce it on video. Fluxi did a kernel that was full of features and that worked very well - i think, he had a good reason for adding it. Maybe, in an other way - you could increase the DB scaling on the exisiting slider setting.

Come on guys, please comment it as working. I want this feature in the next SIYAH kernel! :angel: I want to come back home!

All the best!

Nico
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eagle3386:
May I suggest to add an option to switch between inverted screen by pressing the home-button 4 times and Fluxi's way which required a two-finger slide from left to right?

Reason: being within an app and pressing the home-button 4 times will result in the app being closed, minimized or put in background.

Sliding doesn't close/minimize/put it in background.

Thanks in advance for at least considering it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] confusedmuse:
Could you please try this:

Flash Dorimanx Kernel and test the loudness with your settings and try to memorize it.

Then flash Siyah and use only the db boost and compare. For me there isn't any big difference, as if the overall volume

is almost the same.

Of course, i hear a big difference at +20 while using Dorimanx... but it isn't louder than my previous setups with Voodoo Louder or Siyah.

It appears more like a limiter to me. (raises min vol)

btw. i'm using expensive hq in-ear-phones.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilatus47:
You're right about the difference in sound. It's a huge difference. In my case I have this setup.

HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER= 1 DB (This helps with the low frecuency)

ANALOG HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER= 16 DB. (This one with the overall audio)

Using Poweramp and a Senheisser CX500 earphones I get awesome quality sound.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
this is exactly what I meant.

the difference is huge while playing with the setting..

but the max in both kernels may be the same...

in that case I would not like to add any other setting to the interface.

the device that dorimanx kernel writes to is "/sys/devices/virtual/sound/sound_mc1n2/AVOL_HP"

try the following while listening to music with siyahkernel at max hp amplification:

echo 20 > /sys/devices/virtual/sound/sound_mc1n2/AVOL_HP;
echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/sound/sound_mc1n2/update_volume;

if you notice an increase I will also put that setting in my customconfig.xml...

sorry if its an obvious question... but i downloaded the v5.0i kernal but in the info i couldent see anything saying that it would root the phone.

Its the first time i have tried to root my sgs2 and its on the 4.0.4 standard firmware with the brickbug chip so im a little cautious i might do something wrong..

Im hoping i just follow the instructions on how to flash with odin and v5.0i kernal and that will root my phone and remove the brickbug problem ?

thanks for any help
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
If you have red OP in Siyah development thread

you would have known that it will root your phone as well as protect your phone from brick bug problem.

If you are on pure stock rom, what you should do is just to flash the kernel (TAR ver) via ODIN.

Only remember following:

- don't wipe/format anything before flashing the kernel

- leave ODIN settings default

Hi GM,

i have entered both lines into my terminal emulator app as super user. And.. surprise surprise, the volume raises! :)

I am listening right know to my louder replayed music. It works and the difference is clearly noticeable, because my headphones are maxed out. :D

So you will add it to your next kernel update? Or did i missunderstood your last post? If so, i am sorry for that.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
Don't do that. Your freezes are caused probably due to the fact that you moved from older rom without doing full wipe of your phone. Now being on stock (under condition that your eMMC chip is insane) you are susceptible to get brick bug (especially when you do wipes/formats).

So if you can't make your rom stable download from Sammobile.com site a rom you like and flash it via ODIN. Afterwords do what I wrote in my previous post.

hi GM, from what i can see, you have fluxis commits in your kernel. his xxtweaker app still works on your kernel when changing the sound settings so you can increase the volume via HP/HP GAIN and also boost the MIC/DAC/DIR/ATT signals.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shirabiso:
Recent CM10 seems to be unstable, causing hungup. I had it several a day mostly while using. I was confused to find the cause because the date of Siyah5.0 with vpll release and the beginning of the problem are almost the same.

Those who have hungup problem with cm10 and Siyah kernel should try cm10-121030 or older. This problem happens on recent cm10 nightlies (121101? or newer. I don't know exactly, but, at least, 1030 is stable.) with any versions of Siyah kernel.

(I have never used cm10 stock kernels.)

On my sgs2, Siyah5.0 with vpll mode is finally stable fast smooth. The GPU voltages are the same as those of mpll mode for my sgs2.

Big thanks to the experts! Siyah is the best kernel for sgs2.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mahdi786:
What do you mean by hangup? Network signal drop or slow phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shirabiso:
The hungup means sgs2 stops suddenly, doesn't respond at all, and needs a long press of the power button to reboot. It sometimes rebooted automatically.

I need some help here,

Ok well ive downloaded the latest siyah v 5.0i,

After installation via CWM, it hangs after awhile after my bootlogo shows, the screen literally blacks out, and if you dont manually do anything about it, it jus stays that way.

My current rom is RR JB 3.8

AND my CWM is v3.15

Please advice, thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skully☺:
I had the same when I flashed an alpha version of Siyah S2-v5.

What I did was: take out the battery and leave it out for about a minute; reinsert it; pres volume up + power + home to enter Recovery.

In Recovery you can:

a) either reflash your old kernel, or

b) if you are still in Siyah kernel (you'll see "CWM-based Recovery v6.0.1.2-Siyah" on top of the screen):

- enter the Kernel specific options menu;

- do the next two things: 1. Reset Extweaks profiles; 2. Use 'default' as active profile;

- go back and reboot

Very often when I flash a new version of Siyah kernel, it is unstable, unless I reset the Extweaks profiles.

Good luck!

Edit: Next time after you flash a new Siyah, reboot into the Recovery of the new kernel (advanced menu; reboot recovery). Then reset Extweaks profiles.

If you don't reset them, the new kernel will use old CPU and GPU voltages. This could be a problem if the new kernel uses different CPU and/or GPU steps.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzle1:
I agree that GM`s work on vpll (Siyah5.0) has paid off well.

First, I also thought of the possibility that this feature was causing me hang-ups, locks on 1200MHz, not going to deep-sleep, ect...

But, actually something seems to be wrong with the CM10 november nightlies -at least and not necessarily only in combination with the great siyah kernel- because when i am running CM9.1.0-stable with siyah5.0i, it works fine... weird

anyone else using Siyah5.0 noticing the same problems with the CM10 november nightlies?

Oh, and the same goes for the slide2wake feature. working perfectly on CM9.1.0 with Siyah5.0i so that is not the culprit either...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android.Apez:
Ive done the exact instructions you told me but its still the same. 1st i tried wipe devlink and fix permission, same results , 2nd i tried the exact instructions you told me, sadly its still the same issue again. I tried flashing other kernels but the results are still the same, after the bootlogo yet again it hangs. :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skully☺:
I'm afraid then it will be more complicated to restore your phone without loss of data, if possible at all.

I think there are a few possibilities:

1. Restore from a Nandroid backup (a backup you made in Recovery). If it doesn't work, go to 2.

2. Try a factory reset in Recovery (you'll lose all data, so if you've not made backups, you're out of luck) and reboot to check if your phone now functions.

3a. Try Reflashing your ROM from Recovery.

3b. If this alone doesn't help: in Recovery wipe cache and Dalvik cache after reflashing the ROM

3c. If this too doesn't help: in Recovery do a factory reset.

4. Download a stable Rom (like CM9 now is), put the file on the harddrive of your pc and flash it through Odin. You'll find instructions for CM9 here, and for Odin here. Remember: Odin doesn't use zip files, but tar files.

Good luck again!

Note: if your i9100 has the brickug/emmcbug (1, 2, 3, 4 post of july 11) and your kernel is unsafe, some actions from within Recovery may brick your phone if you have an unsafe kernel. Flashing through Odin however is safe. The Recovery of Siyah v5.0i is safe.

So the big question is: what was the kernel you used before you flashed Siyah v5.0i, and did you flash Siyah from Recovery or from the PC (Odin)?

My phone has the brickbug. I had an unsafe kernel (an old Siyah version that Gokhan removed from his website) about half a year ago and had lots of stbility problems before a safe Siyah was released. After that, my phone was fine.

3-4 days i tested siyah 5.0i, 4.1.4 and 4.1.5 on 4.0.4 XWLPY . Oldest are battery friendly compare to 5.0.i.

I must say that 4.1.4 and 4.1.5 is fast, best bench i ever seen on default settings.

7000 point in cf-bench or 6900 in antutu, no overclock.

with 5.0i or other kernel based on siyah, i get 5000 in antutu, if i test again 5500, 4500, 4000 weird. In nenamark 2 i get 30-35-48fps.

With 414 and 415 i get almost same points on all bench. I love v4.xx siyah kernels.

Even that crappy Nova 3 plays well on v4.x kernels.

I have an game , Dead Space, at first level when you run for an elevator, all that portion get low fps, sound is crappy. A girl talk to me there, i cant understand a thing.

With 4.1.4 and 4.1.5 on that level i get an perfect fps, sound is perfect.

With default kernel that game portion is unplayable.
