but it cannot create flashable ROM backups (yet) :)

it's just a choice and I cannot comment on the user's choice.

about my s2 kernel, users talked about breathing effect more than the dual boot feature, which I never understood...

some "shiny" features are preferred more.

so, it will be better if I let users choose one of the other recoveries and make mine embedded into the kernel.
[Galaxy S III General] masterex567:
Hmm.

But All CWM Features plus Siyah Specific features combined is good. :D

If it's possible,

From Recovery you should try adding an option like: "Reboot to Secondary Rom, or Reboot to Primary Rom" instead of "Reboot System now"
[Galaxy S III General] NexusCrazy:
I really like the recovery with dualboot options, if you do change to "Boot into 2nd ROM Utilities" in STweaks in further releases, will we still be able to use the current recovery? Or will the changes mean the dualboot options in the recovery will no longer work?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
I am not planning to maintain a separate recovery.

but that 2ndROM utilities will have all the options of a regular recovery (wipe/backup/mounts & storage...)

it will be like a recovery embedded in the kernel, just like the one in s2 kernel. I can even add an option to "press volume up for recovery" on the boot menu.

those 2ndROM features doesn't mean anything if you are not on SiyahKernel, so it is better to keep them together with the kernel.

I still have the Wifi problems on 1.6.8 and 1.7b1 , whereas 1.6rc1 worked fine for me. (i assume ur talking about the wifi dropout + reconnect probs)
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
v1.6 was using almost the same version that is being used in 1.6.8 and 1.7b1.

I guess he is talking about wifi not connecting on CM10 after flashing a Samsung JB ROM.

I did not experience that one on 1.7b2.

I did not experience any dropout or reconnect problems with the latest version, but maybe it is something that I did not notice.

if you have it I will be happy to hear an easy way to reproduce it... such as "connect to this and download that and turn the screen of, in 10 mins your download will be interrupted"....
[Galaxy S III General] stamatisx:
On omega v27.1 with 1.7b1 Wi-Fi is fine, with 1.7b2 I have drop outs, flashed back to b1 and Wi-Fi is perfect again.
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
and interestingly, this happens without having a single change in ramfs and wifi driver between 1.7b1 and 1.7b2 :)

only change in the kernel side is that v1.7b2 doesn't have discrete wakelocks which is implemented by Tungstwenty and it would be the biggest surprise if it causes wifi to function more properly :)

sorry, but no way it can be related with the kernel...

and I really mean it, no way...
[Galaxy S III General] steelbeans:
Ok well i just reflashed to 1.6rc1 and the issue still remains. I am running DLIB. 1.6rc1 was fine on DLI7, so maybe its the rom? The test i just did = Go on Skype and call a friend for ~5-10minutes, the call drops out, and then message appears 'connected to wifi ___' . So the issue remains :( . The reason i think you're kernel fixed this before is because the wifi was having this problem with the standard kernel on DLI7, then i flashed your 1.6rc1 and the problem was fixed!!

Not sure what to dooo....

P.S - gokhanmoral -> which JB rom are you using to test your kernels? (i would like to know so i can use that ROM and not have wifi dropouts!)
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
I switch between checkrom, omega and wanam. I think your problem is more likely to be related with your access point then your phone, rom or kernel.
[Galaxy S III General] steelbeans:
Okay, well i'm using Wanam 3.7... Maybe ill reflash :( ..... Access point is working fine too. I'll try your latest 1.7b2 and see what happens. Is it correct to wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing? I may try fix permissions too.

Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] stamatisx:
I understand, just wanted to report it cause it did seem weird to me as well (didn't see any wifi related changes on the changelog), no other changes on phone either. Just flashed the new kernel, let the phone to enter deep sleep for like 10 minutes and then opened Tapatalk to check the thread. Couldn't connect so I just disabled wifi and reenabled and it connected just fine rigth away.

I will reflash the v1.7b2 again right now and test it again. If there is any way I can document this via logcat or anything else let me know.

Anyways, thanks for the reply :)

[Galaxy S III General] Deus_ex11:
You need to use 1.7b2 for installing Roms and zips to 2nd Rom.
[Galaxy S III General] Tenacious:
Clone 1rom to 2 second after that is done format system of second ROM and wipe data and cache now install your second ROM as usual.

You haven't flashed the new recovery
[Galaxy S III General] dantheman122:
Hey guys, bit of a noob question for sure, but since the dual roms don't share apps, if I restore an app on the 2nd rom that's installed on the first, does it then use twice the space on my phone? (I haven't installed yet, waiting till after assignments, but just interested)
[Galaxy S III General] saintsinner25:
No both the roms are seperate with their own set of apps.

[Galaxy S III General] dantheman122:
Just to clarify, if I have GTA 3 installed on Rom 1, then install it on Rom 2, I'll have two sets of app data on the phone, i.e. using 2x700mb or whatever it takes rather than sharing the data file?
[Galaxy S III General] Deus_ex11:

[Galaxy S III General] dantheman122:
Ah yeah that did thanks :) I'm not what the S2 version is like etc, but is there any way to use the same data partitions across roms? So like have a shared one where certain apps are put that are used frequently/save progress etc so they would be accessible from either rom, or does that completely break the dual-rom architecture?
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
you must have flashed the kernel with mobile odin using kernel option.

use open file in mobile odin (the tar file has both kernel and recovery, not just kernel). or use CWM version. or use desktop odin.
[Galaxy S III General] mrjoy:
I did same Clone 1rom to 2 second after that is done format system of second ROM and wipe data and cache now install your second ROM as usual, after all i'm facing this problem.
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
well, that decision is hard.

I have a very good reason for not touching or recompiling a separate recovery: recovery should be safe.

and it must be well tested, maybe by thousands... and chainfire's recovery is fulfilling that already.

making a recovery is not that hard actually, but it requires some care.

for example: we don't have a separate sdcard partition. and if you really format data, you will lose sdcard data (internal) as well because those are shared.

I can do that all, but even a tiny mistake will make everybody regret flashing the recovery.

actually, making a recovery would be a lot more easier for handling dual-boot related tasks. and I am still thinking how to implement flashing zips from the 2ndROM without making a separate recovery. Maybe I will make just a tiny modification in the recovery ramfs (not the recovery binary) to implement some 2ndROM related features.

so, I won't implement a recovery (touch, doubletap etc) but I will implement a similar app to change/set kernel specific and dual-boot related settings.

Yesterday I got my first problem. I have been using Siyah v1.1.

My phone was connected to my cars bluetooth. I got a call and I didn't her the other person. Only as I called him back I could hear him again.

Although I have the feeling that the bluetooth sound is very low. I had all volums up and it was still very low.

I wiped cache and dalvik some time before because I just flashed Omega v5.1.

After I have flashed the RO I have flashed Siyah v1.1.

Any ideas?

Thank you :-)

I have a question. If I Want to, how can I go back to the stock kernel after flashing this kernel?
[Galaxy S III General] Franc38:
I'm new to Samsung but I'd say you get the stock firmware, flash it in mobile Odin, but selecting to only the kernel to flash.
[Galaxy S III General] tridibsahabd:
Flash CF root 6.3. That is stock kernel with root and some other additions.
[Galaxy S III General] Astrofrigo:
Cf-root for sgs3 doesn't include any kernel, therefore, flashing cf-root over siyah would still keep siyah kernel. You'd need to separately flash the official kernel via Odin.
[Galaxy S III General] omkarnageshkar:
Can you point me in the direction where I can find the .tar file for the official kernel? I'm new over here and any help would be much appreciated.. :)

Edit: Found the file. Thanks for the help.

So I flashed this on my S3 today, but how come there's only 2 cpu governors?

I only see hotplug and pegasusq

Edit: Oh nevermind
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
because the rest of the governors are not good enough/optimized for quad core processors hence removed
[Galaxy S III General] Deus_ex11:
If you clone the first rom to the 2nd the data gets cloned too I believe. I have installed another rom to 2nd and my apps where still there. You can also use titanium backup.
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
it is not possible.

internal sdcard and external sdcard are shared only.

you cannot share the same data partition.

but if the app keeps big data in sdcard (such as some games and navigation apps) it will be shared.
[Galaxy S III General] mrjoy:
No. I installed new recovery but unable to wipe cache/format or install zip from rom. Showing message that "not implemented yet"

Thanks for the replies :) Sounds good, will definitely try it out ASAP and see how I go :highfive: Keep up the good work GM :cowboy:
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
no you haven't.

if you installed the new recovery (which is in the kernel image) you would not receive that message.

you need to either learn how to flash it, or just flash CWM package in the recovery which says "not implemented yet".

I'm following this point

"I want to setup dual booting."

A. There are four situations:-

1) Sammy rom now. Want to use aosp as secondary.

2) Sammy rom now. Want to use aosp as primary.

3) Aosp rom now. Want to use sammy as secondary.

4) Aosp rom now. Want to use sammy as primary.

I installed turkbey JB ROM freshly then installed latest siyah 1.7b2 after then i installed new recovery then i clone 1rom to 2rom & after successfully cloned i wipe 2rom data/cache then shows "not implemented yet" then where i'm doing wrong,I dont know & where are the above options four situations sammy rom now........etc.
[Galaxy S III General] slaphead20:
recovery is included in New siyah, so if you are flashing recovery as well, it will be the old recovery without all the features implemented! Reflash kernel ;)
[Galaxy S III General] Infy_AsiX:
On two phones i've been testing I can only get the cpus to idle to single on hotplug governor. In fact on stock kernel it does the same too.

On 1.6.8 i've got both working as desired like that. It's very hit and miss getting them both working in the past but their both working as intended on 1.6.8 using pegasusq and setcpu on boot to change to hotplug. If I try to upgrade now the fourth core gets stuck on, even if I reinstall 1.6.8. Only nandroid restore gets them like before.

Can some people please try systempanellite and see if their cpus deactivate properly. I even tried on a retail display model and it's cored weren't turning off.

I've been trying to setup DB since yesterday but I can't seem to get this work. I have ARHD 11.0 as primary and want to set CM10 as wnd ROM. Here's what I did already:

1. Flashed 1.7b2 recovery and kernel

2. Went to recovery, format 2ndrom system, wipe data/cache, installed CM10 and GApps, (tried to fix 2ndrom permissions but it is not yet implemented) flashed kernel again, then booted to 2ndrom only to be greeted by a black screen.

3.Went back to recovery, this time cloned 1strom to 2ndrom then format 2ndrom system, wipe data/cache, installed CM10 and GApps, flashed kernel again, then booted to 2ndrom but still black screen.

Am I missing something?

Try cloning 1st Rom first (arhd on 1& 2). Then install cm10 on 1st Rom and see if then cm10 works normally, If so, reinstall 1.7b2 and swap. If that doesn't work you'll need to install ics and cm10 and then 1.7b2 and swap to get arhd back to 1st

Hi

When I installed v1.7b1 or b2 the WIFI is not connecting to my modem.

I reflashed v1.6.7 and the WIFI connects as soon as I boot my device.

What is the different between the two versions cause this WIFI problem?

@ gokhan

why merging the recovery along with kernel? i was always been a fan of your gesture based recovery and its awesome,its much better than both stock cwm and touch recovery:(
[Galaxy S III General] tisazalay:
Hmmm. I think he is going to add features to the kernel. The recovery will still exist. I agree with you I enjoy the recovery also. But setting some tweaks under stweaks to for example remove the 3 seconds and boot straight to any Rom ain't bad right?

Remember the part Volume Up for recovery. ... that would be awesome. But I would like to have the possibility to not show those menus if I wish so ;)

[Galaxy S III General] Striatum_bdr:
I read above a post saying to install ICS.. No, you can't have ICS/cm9 with latest kernel.

I had no problem, Paranoid Android as primary Rom (was already installed). Cleared caches, then format system (the order seems important, didn't work elsewhere).

Then installed my second Rom, and voila.

I even forgot to flash again the kernel, and it still worked.

Some Rom seem not compatible with secondary status, I tried first MS team HD but gapps process fc continuously. Strange.

I don't see the need of cloning to install then a new Rom as you will have to wipe caches and perhaps system too.

You are right. Setcpu shows that all cores are in use even if i set dual core mode in stweaks.
[Galaxy S III General] Taifuuni89:
Gokhanmoral, Are you going to add support for Samsung's new flash filesystem F2FS? It's open-source so all the needed info is available. Here's an article from Engadget: http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/08/...campaign=Feed:+weblogsinc/engadget+(Engadget)
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
it is still there, but only accessible if siyahkernel is installed.

people like to whine about changing something that they are used to. therefore I wanted to give that recovery only if siyahkernel is installed.

you can run "/res/customconfig/action/reboot-into 0" and boot into recovery.

might be the mediascanner. use osmonitor to see what causes the cpu usage.

I think it is because of the ROM you are using. Audio2 wakelock happens on some AOSP builds and it also happens with the stock kernel. I don't know the reason.
[Galaxy S III General] jnr21:
@GM: I just noticed that if i set dual core mode in stweaks, default.profile still says "active_cpucore_count=4" in /data/.siyah/ and also setcpu says that all 4 cores is in use.
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
pegasusq governor?

EDIT: oops, I saw it.

it is not used in that setting. max_cpu_lock is what that setting uses.

active_cpucore_count is a leftover. I will remove it.
[Galaxy S III General] jnr21:
No, i'm using lulzactiveq.
[Galaxy S III General] gokhanmoral:
EDITED the first reply.

and that setting is only valid for pegasusq governor.

you can set the same parameter in lulzactiveq by using setcpu.

there is also max_cpu_lock in lulzactiveq parameters.

the governor needs to be selected when that setting is applied and that is why I cannot make it work on lulzactiveq.

maybe I will move that parameter to an upper scope (cpufreq governor to cpufreq driver maybe) to be used in other governors later.
[Galaxy S III General] jnr21:
Ok, max_cpu_lock says 2 but still setcpu and system panel says that all cores are online.

Edit: just readed your edited reply, thanks.

Gestures and brightness curve

Hi all.

According to the OP for the kernel, it's supposed to support Touch Gestures. I also saw that Gohkan had disabled it in 1.6 for testing purposes, but planned to add it back in 1.7.

However, I'm running 1.7b2 and can't find the file "/sys/devices/virtual/misc/touch_gestures/gesture_patterns" mentionned in the S2 thread. Am I missing something? Has gestures been added back to the kernel?

Also, I saw some time ago that the brightness curve was configurable. Is this the case? If so, how can it be done?

In advance, thanks.

Regards,
[Galaxy S III General] Tokarin:
Thanks for the quick reply, I just checked and it is indeed media scanner. So what I did as a noob is install the Rescan App that went along with the Omega JB 27.2 and disable media scanning and only scan when I add new media, which works fine and will report if anything changes.

Another thing is I can confirmed that all 4 cores are active in the CM10 '09 nightly too, even though I set "dual core" through stweaks multiple times. PegasusQ governor btw. Siyah kernel v1.7b2.
