Is there a difference between extweaks and stweaks? Tried searching stweaks in play store but unable to find it.
[Galaxy S II General] red.hat:
Stweaks is from GK, comes defualt with any version of 5. Basically, the difference is the design and user interphase.
[Galaxy S II General] _Sale_:
Amazing mate, thx for sharing
[Galaxy S II General] red.hat:
Great job dude. I think trying conservative governor along with sio i/o and -50 uv might give you a good mixture between performance and battery. Unfortunately my S2 is acting up and can't perform a full test.
[Galaxy S II General] OrangePL:
Hi.

Quick question - how does one switch profiles in STweaks? I copied the default.profile and overwritten the old one (even .active), but the settings remain default, even after reboot.

In ExTweaks, the option was in the top right corner.
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
In STweaks there is only one profile: "defaul.profile". It's not possible to switch between default, battery and performance like it was before in ExTweaks. Might be still possible with paid version of ExTweaks or from CWM recovery but I haven't checked it because I don't need it.

Concerning manual replacement of default.profile - just rechecked it for you:

- deleted old default.profile from /data/.siyah folder

- copied my new profile

- opened STweaks (even without reboot) and new settings were shown

There is no need to touch .active.profile (in my phone it's content is default).

Pozdrawiam
[Galaxy S II General] OrangePL:
Didn't work for me. I even reset STweaks to default after deleting old default.profile, saw it copied the files in /data/.siyah... then deleted again, copied yours... no settings change.

Edit: gets better - manually changing a setting from STweaks and applying doesn't retain it after re-launching the application.
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Something is wrong in your setup. Reflash Siyah 5.0.1 and then replace profile. Then we will see...
[Galaxy S II General] OrangePL:
Same result.

Are STweaks and ExTweak's profiles compatible? Because I'm thinking of removing the first one and trying the latter (was using ExTweaks with Siyah 4.1.5, uninsulated it after flashing 5.0.1).

Other info I can provide is that I'm using SuperSU (updated today... maybe that's it?) and Thunderbolt scripts.
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
1. Yes, ExTweaks app is compatible

2. I'm using updated SuperSU as well

3. I'm not using Thunderbolt! scripts
[Galaxy S II General] OrangePL:
Huh. Reinstalled ExTweaks, and it greeted me with a pop-up saying "Profile support is broken in newest kernel and will be fixed in latest kernel&tweaks"
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Have I understood you right? You even can't change settings manually in STweaks app? Try also Fix permissions and wipe caches from from CWM.

Maybe you should report this bug in the Siyah DEV thread?
[Galaxy S II General] OrangePL:
Yeah, you understood correctly; any setting change in STweaks has no effect (or ExTweaks for that matter - I have the paid version and it doesn't "see" the .profile files when going into profile change menu).

Fixing permissions and wiping didn't help.

I can post in Siyah's thread - but considering the popup when launching ExTweaks, I think the devs are already aware of the problem? (edit: on the other hand, since the newest app version is almost two weeks old, this is probably just a "fail" warning message implemented when something goes wrong, not with 5.0.1 specifically...)

I just don't get how you have everything working on the same kernel version... but if you download and launch ExTweaks, you will see the message.
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
I just done this. Have the same message. But StWeaks as well as EXTweaks work for me well and I can manually change settings from both apps.

BUT your problem is not that multi profiles are not managed by ExTweks - this is normal currently and known by DEV but the problem is that you can't change anything in STweaks (probably the same in EXTweaks). And that should be reported to GM.
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
I see you already reported this. Good. But small remark. GM is quite strict on that - add to your report also on what rom you are :)

[Galaxy S II General] Steven6489:
I'm trying your config..It's not necessary to flash all the zip right? for the max cpu freq 1000mhz, I can use SetCPU to set it..as well as the I/O scheduler..

Actually what is the different between the stock ondemand governor/Noop I/O scheduler and the tweaked 1 by you?:confused:
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
1. You can take from the config whatever you need - not all is necessary, but you might get worse results.

2. To limit Max freq, set noop and even tweak ondemand governor you can for sure use only SetCPU app but - I prepared the same as flashable init.d script from two reasons:

- SetCPU is a paid app and not everybody has it

- SetCPU sets all settings at the and of android OS boot phase and init.d script much earlier, so recommended settings are applied faster by the script than by the app. If this helps for battery - might be a little :)

3. Concerning ondemand governor and noop scheduler

- stock kernel by default sets ondemand governor with default tunable values and cfq scheduler

- my tweaks:

a) change cfq scheduler to noop which works better for flash drives in smartphones than cfq.

b) tweak parameters of ondemand governor to be more "battery friendly" - in short new values ensure that CPU will stay more often on lower frequencies (if governor is set improperly - it can cause that CPU will scale to much higher frequencies than it's really necessary to perform current tasks - draining more battery)

Hope now it's more clear for you :)

What you use is 2000mh battery and i don't have money to buy something like that... Can you PLEASE? :( Do also a TEST and post a screenshot result for 1650Mh battery... Please Please??? I hope you do... Thanks Sir. :fingers-crossed: :fingers-crossed:

[Galaxy S II General] follettoverde:
Hi Many40 thank you very much for your guide (now i learned that i've not to disable FD with my operator)

A question for you. Flashig zip files you shared for optimize battery life could i have problems (lags or freezes) playing games like Asphalt 6?

Thank you in advance
[Galaxy S II General] red.hat:
It might cause a bit of a lag, that is expected as with most battery mods you sacrifice cpu power. You can however change the settings to meet your needs.
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Hi,

For games, underclocking to 1000 MHz and ondemand governors tweak might have influence. Haven't tried personnaly so you have to try by yourself. If there will be lags just remove scripts from init.d folder. I think if you play games often better would be to use SetCPU for all kernel's tweaks with special profile used in addition. This app can set a unique profile for another app. So you can have still battery friendly environment but for egzample for Aspfalt 6 your settings would be special (max freq 1200MHz and no governor's tweaks)

Regards
[Galaxy S II General] dipenrique:
Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II General] jamespangck:
Hi Many40, do I have to download app such as SetCPU to choose the governor and scheduler or I just flash the zip file you attached and it will set to ondemand and noop?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
SetCPU is required only to have specials profiles like lower frequency when screen goes off. For only changing scheduler and tweaking ondemand it's enough to flash my zips. BTW SetCPU is a paid app on Google Play store.

return

..hello Many40...how return from Battery friendly config Neatrom 4.0 + PhilZ-CWM6 to stock NeatRom lite ?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Hi,

I see two ways:

1. Easiest(shortest) - make nandroid backup before nad restore your backup to come back to your oryginal setup

2. Longest - for kernel tweaks remove scripts from /etc/init.d folder, for rom tweaks just you have to undo them manually (remember settings before changed them to come back to the oryginal later)

Regards
[Galaxy S II General] livas2009:
Restore

Thanks for the explanation .I'm lucky because I had backup. Now restored after backup.

[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
All of them. They tweak different parameters so if you implement them all can give you most optimal results.
[Galaxy S II General] follettoverde:
So, i can flash all your zip files and then use setCPU (i bought it long time ago) to set a dedicated profile for some games. Isn't it?

I don't play game often but when i do it i would like to have no lag.
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Yes, exactly :) Regards

Here are the stats of my last battery test of XXLSJ NeatROM Lite v4.0 with my stock (1650 mAh) battery => http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35187670&postcount=1179.

But I have a very light usage with much less screen on time than Many40 ... and I don't have made any manual tweaks (such as UC/UV/etc.).
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Hi,

This is not script but big package of different scripts. I haven't checked if they work and what results they give. TBH the scripts I provide are checked and tested by me so I know that they should work also for the others. Also what is very important, very few parameters can be tweaked on stock kernels and some scripts which work on custom kernels may not work on the stock ones. For example I doubt if sched features are available to be tweaked on the stock JB kernel etc. I can give you some more info on that if I have more time tomorrow (gonna check some tweaks from your link)

Hi Many40, sorry for boaring you with many questions......4 zip files you shared can be used also with other LSJ rom with last Philz kernel?

Some how my screen cracked even though I have dropped it. Am I able to claim warranty?

Sent from Samsung Galaxy Note
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Tinderbox (UK):
Well if it cracked when you dropped it, it`s your fault, did you have a case on it or a screen protector.

Also where did it break, do you have a pic.

John.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Mystic38:
It is pretty much impossible to claim "normal use" for a screen cracking.. and as the case of the Note is not structurally strong enough for it to be the cause, you are most likely out of luck
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] tabsterleir:
How can a screen crack under "normal" usage conditions? I put my note through abnormal conditions and it doesn't crack. Glass doesn't just spontaneously break. Are you sure you didn't warp/flex the phone with a case/your hands/pocket?

EDIT: To clarify, normal usage conditions IMHO is classified as:

- Touching/swiping the screen with your finger within reasonable pressure limits

- Touching/swiping the screen with the stylus within reasonable pressure limits

- Depressing the side mounted click buttons and home button with your finger within reasonable pressure limits
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] heavyharmonies:
Unless OP has a service plan or extended warranty that covers accidental damage, he is SOL.

How exactly does a screen crack under "normal use"? Fingernails honed to an icepick edge? :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] samXLR:
Maybe he is Sabretooth?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ruinkhan:
Physical or Liquid damage is not covered under Standard 1 year manufacture warranty. Unless you have bought extended warranty (that might cover physical damage).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Ekreed:
Yeah, I have had a similar problem with my laptop where the screen broke even without dropping it. Sometimes these things happen, even with the best of hardware. I haven´t heard many people complaining about inexplicably broken screens, so I don´t think there is anything fundamentally wrong with the note. You can´t rule out that your screen had some defect that caused this, but you equally can´t prove it, and without proof of a fault you are on your own, since warranty is not there to replace your phone when you break it. Your best bet is to claim it on your household insurance, unless you have extended cover, since Samsung will almost certainly not fix it for free.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Alexanderbooth:
suppose it would be possible for the screen to go from very hot to very cold extremely fast may cause it to crack, but I'm not sure how that would happen. Playing a game on full brightness then running into a freezer? hahahah
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M3TALLICA:
Normal usage does not involve something that cracks the screen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] martcerv:
There must be a typo in there somewhere as "even though I have dropped it" would not be considered normal use which is the threads title :confused:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] azzledazzle:
Its a rare thing but it does happen, Screens can just break on their own.

There was a guy over on the SGS1 forums a long time ago who was adamant his screen broke by itself, I argues with him for ages saying its impossible, But turns out it isnt :(

Just google it, you will see lots of results.

A mixture of certain conditions can cause a screen to break so i believe the OP, However, trying to explain this to your provider / samsung is not going to be easy.

I think your best bet would be to claim on some sort of insurance, if you have it.

Otherwise, attempt to replace it yourself, there are a lot of how-to videos online.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] slitex:
My advice to op is: buy a replacement display and replece it yourself.. and remember to buy sealings to for warranty void
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] markatmgpc:
I've just had my note back from the official UK service centre after breaking my screen.

SGS+

My sgs+'s screen broke while it was in my pocket -.- never. buying. a. samsung. phone. again. Apsolute bs.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] martcerv:
Many things can happen in your pocket, such as bumping into things. Do you expect that little bit of fabric of your pants to be destruction proof or something lol. I always put my phone with the screen towards me incase I do bump something this will hit the back cover and screen will be better protected.

Obviously dont put it in your back pocket and sit on it, i would think most people would realise thats a bad thing but as some think pockets are indestructable safe zones, thanks to a bit of fabric some may not realize sitting on your phone inside a pocket your still sitting on a phone lol.

As amazing as it may seem I have even heard of people breaking legs while wearing pants, shocking I know but in pants you would think this stuff just cant happen. :)

Why wouldn’t they stop giving updates for this device? It is one of the most successful android tablets in the world. So my guess is that they will have many updates to come.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoNz0:
reason for the title is streaming to my car stereo, on my vodafone stock 4.0.3 rom it shows the 1st track played with the stock media player but will not update to the next track when it changes unless i cycle through the car stereos display option until i get back to artist/album/track

if i use PlayerPro Music Player it shows the 1st track and refuses to update unless i power down.

now, if i restore paranoid android and stream using PlayerPro Music Player it works fine!

wondering if i can flash anything over the stock ICS 4.0.3 (i like everything on it, it all works like it should and the BT streaming is the only bug i have with it ) such as modems or kernels as i have no clue what contains the bluetooth files that are causing the issue.

i really want to keep it as close to a stock samsung 4.0.3 as possible.

can anyone suggest a way to sort this ?

no i have not, that was my next plan though, the vodafone UK release was quite early on in 4.0.3

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparkplugDev:
You cannot run Google Play without root permissions because it will only run as a system app with the proper permissions which you need root to modify. As far as warranty goes, you can restore a rooted kindle fire to stock and remove any proof of the fact that it has ever been rooted by following one of the guides to return to stock.

I used to have my KF completely bricked after running ICS and different ROMs on it and so forth and recently sent it back to Amazon for ghosting. After having restored it to stock and doing a factory reset, it couldn't be differentiated from one that was brand new out of the box. :)

No, there is not a way to do it without root permission. You have to have root access to move to system/apk and change permissions.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparkplugDev:
I appreciate your drive and willingness to try but the reason it won't work is because even if you were to find a way to get the app to run without being run from system/app you will still not be able to use it to install apps. The way it was designed to integrate with android is to contact google's servers and directly install the app to your device using its own permissions derived from it being a system app. If it doesn't have those permissions it won't know what to do and will crash. It cannot just download the app to a folder like 1mobile does. I understand that you want to use google play without rooting, I tried to do it too before I eventually gave in and rooted, but trust me you will be much happier with the device when you have root permissions. If you decide to stay with the stock amazon version of android I would recommend trying modaco's rooted stock ROM which comes with google play already installed, it will not only save you the trouble of having to attempt to install the app yourself (which is actually more of a hassle than you would think) but it also has better stability than stock does and you don't have to worry about amazon upgrading you overnight without your permission and you losing root.

As soon as I get on a phone call, the screen will turn off. I will push power and then 2 seconds later the screen will turn off again, but this time nothing will wake it up unless i hold the power button until it resets. I have no case and no screen protector on the phone. Any ideas? It's driving me crazy. It wont even allow to hang up the call or anything.

Bone stock. No Root.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kujila:
Sounds like a proximity sensor issue. There's a little sensor about a half-inch left of the HTC logo text on the top of the screen. It's designed so when you put the phone to your face during a call, it will turn the screen off so it's not wasting energy/blasting the side of your face with screen light.

There's a lot of reports of screen protectors causing this issue.

Do you have a screen protector on that doesn't have the area cut out for the sensor? Zagg Invisishield has a little cut out chunk right where the sensor is at, but a lot of other screen protector makers didn't test before pushing their products out the door.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] blueluck77:
No screen protector at all.
