Yep, good luck.

BTW be carefull of CPU / GPU undervolting settings - if you face freezes or random reboots just play a little with voltages by increasing them. You can always go to CWM recovery and choose option "Reset Stweaks profile" if any problems occur.

General rule - it's my stable setup - it doesn't mean will be for sure stable for you so you must find based on mine, your own setup. My config as you know is not a golden solution for everyone but starting point :)
[Galaxy S II General] NoRulesForMe:
CPU/GPU? i don't need to set that mate right?

just flash all your zips and it's all done?

and mate i remember that siyah doesn't save configuration when reboot...

so when i flash all your zips.. does it save still even i reboot or remove battery or off the phone or what?

does the setting of the zips is still there SAVE? no need to flash again every reboot or what?...

Mate i unzip the Stweaks.zip and there is a folder "Stweaks_siyah6b4_Many40" and there is a Default.profile there inside

do i just need to Copy the folder " "? to SDcard Android/Data then copy there or just the File inside it??

then it's done??

sorry many questions here mate :(

btw. i use Link2sd application to disable the apps that you disabled on your photoshot mate is that ok? and i choose Freeze

is Freeze and disabled is the same?

I'm done mate

I look at Stweaks application of mine

but the Governor there is ondemand? and the Cpu Max Freq. is 1200MHZ and CPU min Freq is 200Mhz..

do really don't need to move or click anything on Stweaks mate? just flash all your zips?

and how will i know that i'm on Pegasusq and Sio now mate? and where is Initial d script folder?

huhu so many question i have here in this post :( sorry Many40

how can i disable sync with NEATROMLITE 4?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Wait half an hour please, busy currently. Later will update this post by answering you.

OK answered as promissed. :)
[Galaxy S II General] Parrillo:
I think I can help you.

The correct path to copy the file "Default.profile" is:

/data/.siyah/

You can find this using Root Explorer or other File Manager (with root).

If I'm wrong Many40 can correct me.

I'll try this tweaks too.. Thank you Many40
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Thanks mate. Not gonna correct you coz you are right. I wrote this path also in my post.

Make sure that on the bottom of the screen here: "settings/accounts/google/" is written "sync all" and not "cancel sync" -> you can also trigger this from the toggles.
[Galaxy S II General] chenrp:
i dont have this:

"settings/accounts/google/" > tap on your account > uncheck all checboxes.

in settings, all the accounts are there. there is no way to turn all off. only individually.

[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
OK again I'm gonna tell you what I have on NeatromLite4:

"settings" >under a headline "accounts" I have "dropbox" and "google". When I tap on google I get another screen with a name of my google account: something like xxxxxxx@gmail.com. When I tap on it I get:

- sync callendar

- sync contacts

- sync gmail

- sync internet

when Autosync in the toggles is enabled then you can see checboxes on the right side - I unchecked them to disable completely syncing then I disabled Autosync from toggles. But if you manually syncing them keep them checked but disable only Autosync from the toggles.
[Galaxy S II General] chenrp:
i dont have them in the toggle.

maybe it is called "blocking mode"?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
OK, if you are on pure Neatrom without any mods (I'm on JB Reloaded mod with additional toggles) then you don't have it. However you can find it somwhere else. It's hidden very well here:

settings -> data usage -> options (menu left touchkey) :)

Let me just add that RootExplorer is the best solution since you can mount system as R/W on sight.

Others may require going to Recovery>mounts and storage>mount 2nd Rom system.

Hi Many, as I care for my battery life I've decided I'll give your settings a try. I just wonder, if I want to flash also few mods, like Aroma, Back to kill, etc, shall I flash them before flashing your settings or can I flash your settings first and MODs later?

Hello all, my battery results with Manys scripts. :)
[Galaxy S II General] kingusienka:
I've started tests today morning, will report results after my battery is close to the complete drain.

Hilmesh, did you have 3g data transfer turned on all the time? I'm switching between WiFi at home and data transfer when I'm out.

I used only 3G data (WCDMA only), manually set mobile network and mobile data manually switched on only if required.

That's great. How did you manage this?;)
[Galaxy S II General] Hilmesh:
For about 1 Hr and 24 M my phone was being used by my 2 Yr old toddler to see video songs. and the rest of the screen on time I had 3G data ON. So for the rest of the screen off time my 3G Data was OFF. :)

---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:07 PM ----------

Hi Many40, I managed it with your scripts only :). Thanks mate. now I have changed the modem to BVLP7 as I had noticed in ICS that BVLP7 was great for me. so lets see how it compares to JB XXLS6. but all the rest of the settings will remain as it is with your scripts. My FD was ON earlier and now also it will be ON. Surprisingly i did not have any Secril_FD wakelocks. I am not sure earlier with the same settings i used to have heavy wakelocks.
[Galaxy S II General] kingusienka:
And here are my stats from today. This was a cycle in which I've been connected to Internet all the time. I was on 3G and had WiFi on at home and Mobile data transfer outside.

Add to my settings, I have everything set as Many40 described, but I have 30 seconds screen timeout, hardware keys highlight 1,5s and screen rotation on.

Maybe results are not that astonishing but all I was getting previously with the same screen on time was around 6-7 hours of overall battery life.

Tomorrow I'll start another test with turning off WiFi/data transfer when not necessary.

[Galaxy S II General] Hilmesh:
@kingusienka thanks for the results. I am not an expert but what I see is your device was awake almost all the time. This should not happen even if you have Wifi / 3G on. It has to come awake only when some app works in the background. This situation although not possible to eliminate completely can be minimized to a great extent. I would suggest you take a BBS dump and post here for Many40 analysis or post in BBS thread. I am sure you will get even greater battery life.
[Galaxy S II General] kingusienka:
Actually I didn't pay attention to this, but now as I look at it seems you are right. I'll preform tests and will post a BBS dump file. Thanks for this suggestion:)

Do i miss something? will i do right after i charged and do all this things?

any comment i will follow it and accept it Mr.Many40 :angel: :)

Thanks Many40 in advance :highfive:
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
You missed STweaks profile file :)

Concerning screen settings in STweaks - what I used are quite aggressive ones.

You can adjust them for more brightness. But remember - more brightness = less battery life. Regards

I've turned off and rebooted my phone today. And now the settings of my STweeks are default settings. I've moved the file to the folder .data/.siyah but my settings when i reboot or turn off change to default. Some help?

[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
This is what worked for me:

- Unzip profile file

- copy my "default.profile" file to the folder "/data/.siyah" (not to .data/.siyah) by overwriting existing file. Permissions should be rwxrwxrwx.

- reboot to recovery and flash my flashable zips

- reboot

[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Mate, I used ES File Explorer copied my "default.profile" to that folder. The app asked whether to ovewrite an existing file, then I confirmed. That's all.
[Galaxy S II General] NoRulesForMe:
.. did you set any settings on esfileexplorer app.? Can't see data there.. and why when I press thanks says actions deny mate? Using tapatalk
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Yes you need to select first 3 options in settings > root settings

The you need to press back button to go a level down in the folders' tree and "up" icon to go up.

Concerning action denied in Tapatalk - it happens if you try to press thanks button on a post you thanked already.

I see it now did you just copy it? How about the active profile? There did you deleted it?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Don't touch it mate. Currently on Siyah6b4 the active profile is always the default one. There is no multiple profiles support like in Dorimanx.

U can use Gemini app manager to set when play store will open automatically. When i see on the running apps i just force stop and clear from cache process. That's what i do.

Sent from my GT-I9100.
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
No mate. I need it quite often. However I disabled almost all options from Play Store settings and disabled "on boot" of autorun settings in Gemini app manager. It rather doesn't drain battery too much.
[Galaxy S II General] Deni_NS:
First of all many many many thanks to many40 :D I did everything as u said i thought battery optimisation is good, but after a working day, i think something is wrong...

Used all your scripts etc

Neat LSJ + Siyah 6b04

I have something like 2+hours in awake...

Just to clear something... I used before Neat LPY + Siyah 4.1.5 and i had marvelous battery life, aproximately battery lasted for 1 day and the screen on was 5h+

Same apps used, same use of phone (always on wifi, GSM network)

I have BW sync for 1h, twitter 1h, facebook 1h, gmail push, talk always on... Brightness is on 20% and im always on wifi...
[Galaxy S II General] NoRulesForMe:
So I just need to disabled all in Gemini app manager... Play store all auto run?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
I wouldn't propose to disable all Play Store autoruns (then you would have problems with using it I guess - however if you like you can check it). What I did is just disabled the first one: "on boot"
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Hi mate,

I wrote many times that proper rom's settings/tweaks are even more important and have higher influence on battery life than kernels ones. Very important is:

- to use as less brightness as possible (of course a proper balance is needed coz too dark screen makes your phone useless :))

- to avoid situation that some apps (you are not aware of) are working on the background and draining battery (disabling autoupdates of the apps, disabling autostarts, freezing apps which are not needed or used very seldom)

- to minimize long wakelocks as much as possible (the wakelocks may cause your phone to not going to deep sleep)

1st of all it's hard to compare your results with mine because:

- you implemented temporary syncing - I don't

- you have WiFi always on - I don't (my results are done on 3G turned on only when required)

- you face terrible waklocks (2hrs difference between "Awake" time and "Screen on" time, what means that something drained your battery during screen off a lot)

Even I think that 4hrs38min of "screen on" is not bad, I would recommend you following:

- eliminate wakelocks as much as possible. Your longest kernel's wakelocks are "l2_hsic" and wlan_rx_wake" - so firstly reboot after charging your phone (l2_hsic wakelock should be much limited) and set your WiFi router / phone IP settings to "Static" instead of "DHCP".

Despite that I would suggest you to do this: prepare a proper dump file by BetterBatteryStatts app according to the guide from

BBS thread

(1st post) upload it there and ask for help.

- check using GSam battery monitor what apps drain most of your battery and try limiting their activity.

Finally you will be able to compare your results with tweaks implemented, to your results without tweaks, but:

- don't compare your results with mine because your setup is different

- don't compare your results achieved on Neatrom LPY to current ones because the differences between rom/kernel combos are significant.

Regards and good luck

Mate how can I choose static on ip?
[Galaxy S II General] DiaBolicalThinker:
does this support Siyah s2 v5 kernel ?
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Yes of course but use another config I made for Siyah 5.0.1, which is also in my signature (hidden) or

HERE

---------- Post added at 11:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:00 AM ----------

settings > wireless networks (turn wifi on) > long press on your network name > modify network config > show advanced options > IP settings (change from DHCP to static) > set your IP adresses and DNS configured previously on your router.

You don't have to do that if your router supports DHCP which allows to define pool of IP addresses linked with MAC adresses of your devices.

Hi guys!

Proud user of NeatROM here, but I'm still on PhilZ kernel. I'd like to switch to Siyah, cause I'm kinda fed up with the lockscreen freezes and other issues this kernel has. Is this the correct procedure? I'm assuming the ROM nuke is the one I can get from here.

Also, do I have to full wipe the rom and reinstall all apps and backups? I'd rather not :(

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] NoRulesForMe:
Use TB before doing it!... RomNuke do the Full wipe so no need to do it manually...
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
No, don't use rom nuke script when you need only to change a kernel !!! Rom Nuke script makes full wipe of your rom what is not necessary. To switch from PhilZ to Siyah, do as follows:

- reboot to recovery

- flash

GS2KernelWipe

- wipe cache and dalvik (just in case if you like :))

- flash

Siyah6beta4 kernel

(this is an adjusted version to be flashed directly from any kernel's CWM)

- reboot phone

If you would like to try my config do in addition:

- Unzip my profile file "Stweaks_Siyah6b4_Many40.zip"

- copy my "default.profile" file to the folder "/data/.siyah" (not to .data/.siyah) by overwriting existing file. Permissions should be rwxrwxrwx.

- reboot to recovery and flash my flashable zips

- reboot phone

Done
[Galaxy S II General] kingusienka:
And if I've flashed your zips first and then replaced default.profile is it still ok or should I redo the procedure?

No, you don't have to, however important is that:

- profile file is in the proper folder with proper permissions

- after placing the file into the folder you need to reboot a phone to make sure that all settings are applied (without reboot some settings will work but some not)

Mate help me why I can't turn off boot completed using Gemini app.? Still turning on after I turn it off

Sent from my GT-I9100 using Xparent Blue Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
It's strange, just checked it. As long as you turn it off and don't enter it again it keeps that state (turned off) - at least Gemini claims that. As soon as you enter again to autostart options of Play Store - something triggers the option "on boot" to enabled. So If thing until someone doesn't find a better solution - my suggestion is: turn it off and don't eneter there again. Then Gemini will show the satus as "turned off" with green check mark on the apps icon. Regards

I know for brightness that it must be as low as u can see the things on screen because the screen is mother of drain :D

I know that backgound updates drains battery, but u know one thing... I bought smartphone not dumbphone (calls, sms) :D

I use autostarts app

Yea i know, i don't compare mine results with yours because it's the different usage (thats obviuos) :)

Yea it's not that bad, 4 and a half, but i think i can get 5h+ with 20h of phone turned on (but problem is this 2h of awake) :D

I know for BBS and 4 hours of doing nothing (but i dont have 4 hours coz i getting many mails, calls, messages) :)

I thought i can compare with LPY cause:

- I have same usage

- Using same apps

I know that battery should be better or worst comparing to LPY but not that much difference :)

I understand many things (i'm with android since cupcake, but haven't had much time for development stuff :) i'm friend in real life with Sale who always help me, when i have some probs, but i dont want to ask every noob question (i know to use search and Google :D ), cause i know that he has much work to do with S2 and S3 development and afterall he has a family...

When i discover what happened for that 2h of awake and have some 4h of free time, ill post my results and let u know everything :)

Carry on with your great contribution and have fun ;)

---------- Post added at 04:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:13 PM ----------

OK, you are right. I checked it even with Autostarts app - results the same. May be simply Google Play Store is one of the apps which are able to disable/enable their own components (depending on settings, features etc). So, I think that only solution to get rid of it from running apps is to freeze it. But I will not do that coz as I wrote to you already despite it works in the backgroung it doesn't drain much battery.

Regards
[Galaxy S II General] ClaKK:
All done! I'm on Siyah now :D I'm gonna try it as it is before using your tweaks, maybe the battery usage isn't so bad already.

I had some AROMA mods installed before flashing siyah, are they still there or do I have to flash them again? Can I flash AROMA at all now that I'm on another kernel?

Also, are there any bugs that I can solve on this beauty?

Thanks for the support so far!
[Galaxy S II General] Many40:
Your mods still are there in your rom (under condition that you didn't flash new rom :))

Yes, of course you can still install Aroma, however general rule is that some Aroma mods may cause conflicts with mods prepared by sale aszip packages, but it's nothing to do with Siyah.

I personnaly flashed following fixes to overcome some issues:

1. "FixedSkipSongs" - long pressing volume up/down skips songs being played while screen is off

2. "FixedHomeButton" - JB has a bug that when you open an app and screen goes off then when you unlocke the screen the app hides instead staying on the foreground. The mod fixes this.

3. "FixedMultiWindowTransp" - previously you couldn't easily edit icons on multiwindow panel. To do so you had to disable multiwindow, reboot the phone, enable multiwindow again. The mod fixes this.

But maybe you have them already installed because they are available in Aroma 4.0.2.

Regards
[Galaxy S II General] jebuchanan:
I ran Aroma mod v5 and still had issues with editing multi Window.

If the fix was in 4.02, should it not have been in 5?
