Hello guys, I would like to flash Siyah kernel to my S2. I'm on stock ROM, JB 4.1.2, XWLSD, rooted by PhilZ-cwm6 root, installed Alliance mod. I have wifi problems and that's why I would like to try this kernel. Can I download SiyahKernel S2-v6.0beta5 (zip) and flash it via cwm or do I have to do it via Odin? If I understand flash via cwm should be possible… Thank you!

Siyah6 supports only stock sammy JB 4.1.2 roms. Moreover it doesn't support dual boot yet. Please read changelogs of Siyah kernels available on gokhanmoral.com before asking.

---------- Post added at 11:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 AM ----------

You can flash zip version of the kernel over. If you like to be sure that there are no any leftovers from previous kernels in your phone - use hawkerpaul's GS2KernelWipe script (it will prepare clean environment for your new kernel).

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skully☺:
Not sure what is causing the drain in your case, so I advice you to do some research and install the BBS app from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809. Please read all 4 OP's (opening postst), because you'll need the knowledge to understand the information that BBS is giving you and to know what the solution to your problem will be.

Also see #12d in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1909996.

For more reading about batteryconsumption see the links in the signature of some guy named Skully☺...

Note that a wifi drain can also be caused by a weak connection to you wifi modem or the settings in your wifi modem. For the first try to change wifi channel (choose a lower channel/frequency), for the second see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=38019852#post38019852.

I am not reallly sure Wifi drain is cause of " multicast" and is still there with JB source derived v6b5, but for sure older releases GM had patched with multicast fix that used to resolve wifi drain for me as well. I have used siyah upto v6b4 ( modified) on my i777 without wifi drain. One kernel dev said wifi multicast fix is not necessary with jb source/ latest wifi drivers. GM only can confirm this.:thumbup:

Indeed I have found that phone is hotter with b5. Cannot confirm that wifi drain is not available in b4 cause I stayed on it for too short.

I am trying now to make my phone running smooth and keep some juice. All that with great help of Many40 (thanks man!).

I hope GM will make another version with newer wifi driver (less battery drain). Nevertheless he had done awesome job with his kernel.

Hi all

Just testing this awesome kernel indeed

I usually test it with Antutu+ui responsiveness self experience

Now 3 things have come up

1) In third part of Antutu with the " many soldiers and their swords" (not gls es2.0 last 3d part, the previous one) I get a yellow or blue colored screen although it counts fps in the bottom till it lands down and shows them in correct colors

2) How can I set via Stweaks performance gov, because even if I set it to performance through Settings-Performance after Antutu finishes I see that cpu is at 800mhz, not 1400 where it started, I've already tried 2nd core always on but no luck

3) Can I somehow have Aroma Filemanager in CWM?

Thanks for this great kernel, it gives ease of tunning my phone

Have I missed latest Siyah 6b5 release which was in February? Of course not.

Tbh only firm information for me is what GM wrote in his changelog (have you ever red it?)

Some people report it works others that doesn't. As GM wrote, latest kernel may boot CM10.1 but he doesn't guarantee stable work and he doesn't support this rom yet so it should be treated - as not supported - that's it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tungstwenty:
The menu is presented by /sbin/choose_rom, but that is just a symbolic link to recovery which in turn is a custom built busybox with addititions by Gokhan. AFAIK the source is not public.

You might want to try the approach I suggested here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=40881967

By querying the /d/gpio virtual file, you can check which physical buttons are down and react to that. It won't pause the boot, though; you need to keep the key pressed (whichever you decide to monitor) so that when the script executes the check it detects it as being held down.
