i do have a s2 i910m, powered by a nightly cm10 rom. pretty nice, but a few issues with it, such as:

- no mount/umount option for sdcard

- not good control of autobrightness

- buggy vol up/down wake up

- lost touch feature of my cwm recovery when i installed cm10

I have heard/read that flashing a sihah kernel may solve these issues! I wish know:

- is it safe to flash the latest siyah kernel S2-v5.0.1 over a cm10 rom? safe means that my cm10 will boot again.

- is there a touch cwm recovery for this rom?

- are the other issues above solved after flashing this kernel?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1trand1r:
well i hope there was a typo above...u do have i9100 right? if so you can flash either Siyah v5.x and/or DorimanX v 7.29 kernel...:D

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
You have Bell's version (i9100M) of i9100 which as far as hardware is concerned is identical to international version, so Siyah should work for you well (

guys on Candian SGS2 section of this subforum confirmed this

)

1. Yes, Siyah 5.0.1 is "safe" - it will boot CM10 under condition that the rom incudes new mali drivers. It will not boot old CM10 roms

2. Yes, there is very well working for me touch recovery

3. I'm not on Siyah currently but I'm pretty sure it has mount/umount option for sdcard

4. For me autobrightness worked well

5. Buggy vol up/down wakeup - haven't noticed this.

6. You will not loose touch features of CWM by flashing CM10 on it

So, you can try and check by yourself.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.pythagora:
I tried, and it work on I910M model, with latest cm10 installed.

A few remarks:

- still no mount/unmount option under storage

- still buggy vol up/down wake up

- surprisingly, no light notofication for anything, like for charging, new mail/sm arrival, new calendar event approaching.

by the way, does S2 I9100 have light notification hardware support?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
1. There are mount/umount options under "Mounts and Storage"

2. Could you explain more what you mean by that?

3. Light notification, you of course mean BLN (BackLightNotification) feature. The kernel supports it very well (You can test it from STweaks app) but to make it working finally in the way that light notifications are displayed - there have to be apps which can deal with light signal (supporting light notofications). Stock apps don't support it. You have to use 3rd party apps for that.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.pythagora:
1. My device does not show mount/umount option under 'storage'

2. vol up/down do not wake up the device properly. Sometime they do work fine. Next they dont work anymore. And even the

capacitive light buttons do not work. Then if I keep pressed for a while the power button, or the middle square button, it start to work. But quite randomly.

3. Ok. I thought notification light for sms arrival etc was a solved issue - I did use an HTC IS earlier, with a jb 4.1.2 rom, and the notifications did work well there (even with stock sms app, for example).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Many40:
1. There is no storage option in Siyah CWM recovery. There is Mounts and storage. There are following options inside:

- mount emmc: means internal sdcard

- mount sdcard: means external sdcard

- usb storage: means flash drive

and many more

2. Ok now I see. I haven't got you before. :confused: I have never thought that s2 can be woken up by volume buttons. I just didn't required this. It doesn't work for me on Siyah neither on stock kernel. I normally wake up my phone by home button or power button.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.pythagora:
1. I was talking about the setting menu, inside the rom (not in the cwm menu, there indeed I see 'mount and storage').

By the way, in cwm recovery menu, my sdcard does not mound; there is an error '/sdcard' not found, while i do have the card inserted.

2. You can configure up/down vol keys to wake up the device under system settings/display. But it is not stable, as i said.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1trand1r:

Hi,

It seems I went crazy. Especially for you to check your issues just moved temporarily to CM10 (nightly 20121104 jb 4.1.2). Previously I was on stock ICS 4.0.4. So being now on Siyah 5.0.1 and CM10 (similar setup to yours) noticed following:

1. In CWM recovery I could mount internal as well as external sdcard - no issues at all.

2. Confirm: after enabling volume locker screen unlocks randomly, only from time to time, so it doesn't work well on my version of CM 10 too.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.pythagora:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.pythagora:
it seems that my cwm recovery does not mount the sdcard due to a wrong / partition (for some reason, unknown).

in my system, /sdcard0 points to the internal sdcard and /sdcard1 points to the exterior sdcard.

/sdcard0 is found in many places, like in /sdcard, /storage/sdcard0, /mnt/sdcard.

/sdcard1 is found in many places, like in /extSdcard, /mnt/extSdcard, /storage/sdcard1.

it seems a mess, god knows why is so.

who knows where cwm recovery looks for the internal and external sdcards, and what are the exact names cwm refers to?

I am thinking about creating system and hidden partition images in sdcard, which will waste 1GB more, then mount those images to /system and /hidden.

and maybe I will move all image files to external sdcard.

I am not sure about moving the files to exterrnal sdcard but I am sure about one thing: we cannot use hidden partition anymore.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
I had some time today and merged JB kernel with my modifications.

there were too many conflicts (because of my previous merges with s3 kernel) and I resolved them in 20-30 minutes.

I have sent the blindly compiled kernel to a friend and he said that it booted but the modem did not work.

so, everything is (almost) ready. I just need an s2 for several hours.

then some time to make dual-boot related changed (I need at least a day)

I have also put cm10.1 support but I think I will have to remove it because it moves your sdcard contents to a subfolder named 0. multiuser support will create different folders for different users and that will probably break dualboot support.

so, I will have to find another place to store dual-boot related files.

Hi folks,

Haven't followed up for quite a while.

These days just updated to resurrection remix jb and siyah 5.0.1, actually found that the pegausq governor is not as smooth as B4? With jb project butter, user experience should have been more butter smooth. But the outcome is a bit disappointing.

Do u guys reckon it is a ROM or kernel related?

Thanks.

Why didn't you tweak governor's tunables to meet your expectations? You can do that via init.d script or tunning apps like SetCPU. If you need to read a little how to do that you can go to this

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OGroteKoning:
Well, we all know that what GM says will be the last word. But have you considered that moving into the future with no Siyah is kind of going backwards? I mean, we all know and love the dual booting and the trendsetting features GM has provided us for a long time with this super kernel, but if the argument is "dual booting or no booting" then you are surely missing the point. I fully accept that a day will come when GM will not provide updates for our beloved S2's, but in the meanwhile, I think most of us would rather use his kernel than be stuck on another just because there is no dual booting. Dual booting is not the be-all-end-all of GM's great work. We are not prescibing to GM what to do, we are expressing an overwhelming support to stick with him even if it is only single boot. But at least we can use his work. For me, I will miss dual booting immensely, but I would rather boot up in single mode than lose this kernel.

EDIT:

And then I saw this....

GM you are truly a legend. this just proves what I wrote above. You remain a trendsetter of note when it comes to kernel. Thanks for all the hard work and effort to keep us on Siyah!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.pythagora:
can anyone state in a few sentences the very major differences between stock cm10, siyah and dorimanx kernels?

strong and not so strong points of each of them.

this would be useful for a large majority of 'not sophisticated' users to make a decision which kernel to choose.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gokhanmoral:
cm10 is the best kernel for cm10 based ROMs. it is developed by the guys who know what they are doing.

siyah have some cherrypicks from here and there and some new features. I no longer cherrypick commits that I cannot understand (I used to be doing that a lot). STweaks lets you make some changes easily, without the need of init scripts. siyah supports both samsung and cm roms (except for 10.1) and you can use dualboot feature to have two roms at a time.

dorimanx's kernel has lots of cherrypicks and he generally tries to catch the latest upstream. I don't understand most of his cherrypicks and he doesn't neither. I guess he trusts the commits from upstream but it may cause instabilities sometimes. however, if those instabilities are fixed those commits may give you some additional performance or even stability (irony? yes). that kernel also have STweaks support and has some more configurables. Dorimanx also uses my commits to support both samsung and cm roms with a single image and also the recovery+initramfs that I modified for dualboot feature. in initramfs there are some more scripts + optimizations some of which I find dangerous and unnecessary but most of them are optional anyway.

so, if you want to play safe and make sure everything runs as expected use cm10 stock kernel.

if you want some new features and have time to play with some settings use siyah.

if you have more time and want to have currently the most benchmark-friendly , fast and up-to-date (considering the cherrypicks from upstream) kernel with some experimental features use dorimanx.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.pythagora:
i found your comments very clear and helpfull. thank you!

just a quick question:

is it possible to have the stock cm10 kernel and a touch cwm recovery? if yes, how? the touch feature of my cwm recovery is lost anytime I flash a cm10 stock kernel.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tungstwenty:
On the S2 the recovery comes with the kernel. If the CM guys chose bundle a non-touch recovery on their kernel, that's the one you get when using the kernel.

You do have the option to run the touch recovery from withing the normal one, although this isn't permanent and will require that for every execution.

Look at this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1746794

In the "2nd method" you have this:

Basically, you'll need to download the CWM package and "flash it" (actually you're "running" it) from within the recovery you have. You'll then enter the CWM (touch) recovery and can do what you need from inside it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orginator:
I've been running CM10 with Siyah v4 (1127 @ by mcm) and it was/is so much smoother than the stock cm 10 kernel. The battery is also great and I didn't have a single RIL crash or any issues whatsoever.

So even thought one could think that stock might be the best choice, it doesn't have to be necessarily true. No matter how well the cm team knows their rom, their commits, they still might just simply miss or misjudge something that you or another developer sees differently.

I'd be thrilled to see your kernel (v4!) support CM 10.1, from my short-tests it was booting but without GSM and SD.. looking forward to getting the opportunity to enjoy your great work. Thanks!

HI Gokhan!!!

Let me ask you a question:

When you say that you only cherrypick from upstream you understand, you include linux upstream on that or just android upstream?

I ask that because linux commits are really hard to understand, principally if is a new feature, or a big solution for a problem. But the point is that these solutions/commits use to be also very desirable... i mean the commits that reduces overhead, increases performance, and so on....
