The given download link,file name is "DreamKernel-I777-v3.2.4.zip"?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
Well than op made a misstake while adding downloads should not contain i777 will be corrected :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Contingency™:
Hehe my mistake. I had both pages open for both sgs2 and i777 and got them backwards fixed as of now
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] LogeshMenon:
Guys am having battery drain on screen... is it better to disable the on screen power saver?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
can u please be more specific,

how much drain?

how u are using your phone? if u got a high "screen on time" u should consider decreasing max birgthness

the power saving mode should not couse any drain at all
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MemoryController:
Is 2nd rom issue fixed?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
Will be fixed in the next release

wich u can expect later today or tomorow

just came home from work and need to sleep a litle :) will take care about after that
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] uppon2:
Guys seriously. You're not helping by saying "me wifi no work no long range gps me no understand why dog bite cat" Please be more detailed with your issues. Provide ROM details and what you were doing when you were having such a problem. Also provide a logcat which can be done very easily now even inside TWRP - Stop whinging and be happy we have some more devs working on our device.

I am running this kernel and will report back with any discrepancies. So far so good.

FAQ

TWRP (team win recovery project)

Where can I find TWRP? Open xTweaks > MISC> Down very bottom change this option

AOSP Supported? As stated on the first page this kernel is designed for CM9,MUI,B2G,S4A,Jellybean support

Dual Boot? Not in this release but stay posted as it might be in the next

Battery drain? Battery life can increase after a full charge so be sure you have waited at least 24 hours before monitoring. CLICK HERE AND GET THIS APP and find out if you have any kernel wakelocks that are on for long amounts of time, anything that says 5 minutes or less is usually fine.

This is like Siyah? REALLY? Lots of kernels are, this incorporates new features and is in fact a completely different approach so please be aware that these developers are trying to make our phone better. Who cares if they are cherry picking Siyah sources, it's not identical

My cat has herpes? I'm sorry to hear that.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
The IPv6 Tun app is a free app that enables your device to create IPv6 over IPv4 tunnels.

it is basicly a gogoc Client/Gui compiled for Android for more infos on GoGoc(6) please have a look at: http://www.gogo6.com/

it offers free "anon single IP" ipv6 access and also provides IPv6 subnets with millions of IPv6 IP's for registered Users

the Next Kernel release will have an option to make that App optional so u can remove it and the kernel will not install it again.

if u later choose to install it u just need to enable it again

best regards

He means that nearly every 10s goes 1% Battery down. (Screen ON)

Same here. But screen off works perfectly lost 0% Battery in 10h xD

Resetting fuel gauge does not help
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
a gauge reset should do the trick

also please read the small FAQ posted by uppon2

2 posts before

he stated:

and thats correct please report back what u got after some time has passed

you can also play a bit arround within extweaks to find a good pair of settings

consider using the battery profile for a basic template to start on

---> "can be set in CWM recovery > kerneloptions"

best regards
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] blizzari:
Why do u think i posted that. Because i tried everything of that, DIDNT Work.

-Resetting Gauge (Not)

-Battery profile (Not)

-UV (Not)

- Charging full (100%) And letting it drain to 5% (Repeated 5x) Not working

It drains only when Screen is ON.

When the screen is OFF it's normal.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] LogeshMenon:
Ive had quite a few kernel panics whilst using extweaks. Anyone else faced the same?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
if that happens again please grep the file

/proc/last_kmsg

from your device wich holds the last kerneloutput before a potential kernelcrash occoured

that would be realy a great help. u need to grap that file as soon your device booted up again

further boots will overwrite this file and make it usless

well that sounds heavy,

Kernel is released for a bit longer than 24 hours and u still got your device from 100% down to 5%

of charge several times(5).

i would invite you to our irc team channel to check that issue together , that would be great for us and may others to solve that

issue even if none of my testers has ever mentioned anything related to a heavy bat drain anyway i want to investigate that as soon as possible

i would be glad if u could drop by into our irc if you wouldnt mind feel free: http://buildenv.dream-irc.com/webchat/

just call my username "talustus" there i will reply
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Jagdish84:
Kernel feels rly smooth, too soon to judge battery life...

i noticed that when brightness level is changed (using auto brightness) the led touch keys would light up, this issue was found and alrdy sorted on several other kernels so fixing it wouldnt be too hard( i would imagine), anyways, very nice work at this early stage kernel alrdy feels very mature...

keep it up guys!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] blizzari:
Would be glad to help, but im on my phone and the ADSL on the PC does not work :(

i want to report a bug about dual booting.I'm on CWM Touch and when i go to dual boot menu and try to install zip to second rom it promts me to do a wipe data/cache on second rom.When the wipe finishes i get the same message.I can't restore as 2nd rom also.I can also see on cpu spy that the steps 200mhz and 300mhz are not being used.I have minimum voltage to 100 and maximum to 1300
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
please have a look into extweaks under the BLN tab for the setting LED_TIMEOUT that should address your problem
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
related to the cpufreqs

Can not confirm that

the install to second Rom issue wil be fixed in further releases
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Jagdish84:
Im sorry but thats not the issue, maybe i didnt explain myself all too well...

i set my led timeout to 3 secs, when i touch one of the led touch keys itll light up for 3 seconds, no problem there, problem is when auto brightness kicks in and changes the brightness level(wether if its reducing it or making it brighter) the touch keys would then light up without me touching them at all...

so as you can see, your solution does not meet with my problem at all...

Thx in advance.

OK, this night I went thru one small experiment.

FW: Samsung original 4.0.4

Kernel: Dream 2.7.1

Gov: pegasusq

IO: cfg

No UV, scale 200-1200

Data connection disabled.

Since 1 a.m. til 10 a.m. I lost only 1 % (yes, ONE percent) of battery charge...

Absolutely unbelievable :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] californicated:
Had an kernel panic half an hour ago when i locked and unlocked the screen:

sio

sleepy

50-1200mhz

-25mv
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
i will have a look at your logs

if u face that again please set at least min freq of 100

not all phones run well while using steps below 100 MHz same for steps above 1400
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hankhandsome:
My battery has been hammered today - i think i had the audioout_3 partial wakelock for one thing. i also tried the sleepy governor, -50v undervolting on the CPU and 1000mhz scaling and the sio scheduler. i think i'll go back to pegasusuq governor to see if it makes any difference. i generally used to get some great battery life out of stock settings and just changing the smooth scaling from 1200mhz to 1000mhz.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tghandour:
As Tallustus suggested try to set min freq at 100 and not 50. I had the same problem with 50 MHz set as min freq. I also suggest to not do any UV with Extweaks and you can use SetCPU instead as you can safely achieve more UV values.

With SetCPU I can UV with 825-1350 mV for the 25-1600 MHz range although I use the default 100-1000 MHz Battery profile range with Sleepy Gov and SIO.

I would like also to thank Tallustus for such an awesome, stable and battery friendly kernel.. Perfect dual booting and flawless operation. Excellent job done here mate :thumbup::)

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MrMarques01:
I must say I'm very pleased with this kernel. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] superleeds27:
Cant get into recovery.

Cant get into it using ROM Manager or CWM either. Kind of just seems to not respond.

Manually doing it, gives like a bootloop of some sort
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] californicated:
Some time ago a dev (Entropy?) said 100mhz could drain more battery than stock 200mhz. I actually don't remember why, maybe because operations take longer..

Sure, if it's true, it will also apply for 50mhz.

That's why i tried 50mhz and beside the kernel panic it's working fine. If it should happen again, I'll change back to 200-1200mhz and pegasusq. It was so unbelievable smooth you could compare it with official JB on Gnex. You've done a good job :good:

Why can I do more uv with SetCPU than Extweaks?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
CWM Manager is known to not work with the kernel for now

Also it has been said millions of times... Dont use rom manager on Galaxy S2 devices as it will lead u into trouble for sure ...! :what:

INFOS like used rom and Kernelinfo etc will also help a lot :rolleyes:

Try quickboot from the playstore it lets you create shortcuts for recovery etc .... And is avaible for free .

U can also use the powermenu to boot into recovery if your rom includes that
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tghandour:
You can use ROM Toolbox by JRummy, it is working flawlessly all the time and as Tallustus suggested I believe there isn't any ROM right now that is not supporting Boot to Recovery in its Power Menu options .

AOKP JB Build-1+ - Dream Kernel 2.7.2+
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hankhandsome:
Very nice :)

How do you have it set up ? What's your average daily use ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] tghandour:
I think this 100 MHz battery drain opinion was stated by Entropy before the 18 CPU Step Count implementation in ICS kernels. However I think this is not true Anymore as any CPU step freq won't be used unless it is appropriate for the current CPU load. It also depends on the Gov in place so for example Pegasusq implementation for the SGS2 is known to perfectly utilize the whole CPU step freqs perfectly and efficiently.

As for Extweaks, I dont know the reason but this is my own true experience with it in Siyah and Dream IRC. With Extweaks I can barely UV to -50 and I do get freezes and SODs if I try more UV. With SetCPU I can achieve more UV up to -75 and -100 without any issues. Maybe Tallustus can shed some light on that if he has a good explanation :)

pegasusuq seems to be a much better governor if you want to leave mobile data on and use 2G, as i do. unplugged for 2 and a half hours and counting with, admittedly, no use of the phone, and haven't lost any battery so far
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
If thats the case for you that does not mean its self for all thoose other sgs2 devices out there ...

Great kernel ;)

give someone a good setting for extweaks? for battery

Good governor?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MrMarques01:
I'm on CM9 with a pretty average use pattern: Mobile data always on, WiFi on demand, lots of surfing, tapatalking, messaging...

In ExTweaks I'm using the sleepy covernor combined with a 50 - 1000 frequency range and a -50mV CPU undervolting.

Everything else is is set to the battery profile's default.

This gives me great results both battery and performance wise.

Thanks again for the great kernel!

v3.3.1 (TWRP/CWM) bricked my device. I upgraded from v2.7.2 and it rebooted successfully once. On the next reboot it was stuck at the boot logo. Had to reflash with Odin.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Osyx:
What's the difference between the twrp swap cwm and twrp noswap cwm? And what does the I777 stand for?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] LocutusEstBorg:
The I777 (swap/noswap) ones are only for AT&T phones. We need to flash the ordinary versions listed towards the very end. If you flash the I777 versions the buttons wont work properly. (How ever I found that to be a good thing since the back button gets disabled completely (don't need it in ICS) and the menu button only responds if you hold it for a fraction of a second thus completely eliminating the annoyances of the button row).

TWRP is only in the v3.x.x development branch. v2.x.x is the stable branch and only has CWM.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hankhandsome:
Thanks for that. Do you set the frequency in"performance settings" rather than exTweaks ?

and is your 'active profile' (in CWM) set to 'battery' or 'default' ?

i accept it might be different for me i suppose as i'm running JB, but i certainly might try to replicate your setup to see how i go.

*edit*

i randomly tried setting the upper and lower frequencies in the 'performance' tab in rom control and the two sliders seem permanently linked .. grrrrr !
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] a0007:
v2.7.2 - Bluetooth not work on sammy 4.0.3
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MrMarques01:
Actually I set the CPU frequency via SetCPU because ExTweaks doesn't allow to set the min frequency below 100 mhz. First I was afraid 50 mhz could be a little low but I can't see any difference compared to 100 mhz concerning performance. And yes, the active profile in CWM is battery. Oh and I disabled the android logger in ExTweaks.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] qqqqqq0:
Which governor and setting for battery is best?

GT-I9100 cihazımdan Tapatalk 2 ile gönderildi
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
Try to start with following CPU Settings

MIN FREQ: 50

MAX FREQ 1200

Governor: Sleepy

Undervolting: -25mV

Thats a good base give your phone 1 or 2 cycles with this settings and note how long the bat holds

Then undervolt a bit more let me say -50mV and give it again 1 or 2 cycles

instead of Sleepy u can also use pegasusq wich gives also good results

when u found out good cpu settings u can step over tuning gpu settings

The default settings are good to go so far, and there are no general perfect settings as it always depens on the usage of your phone

(screen on time etc )
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] grzesdroid:
pegasusq is very good for battery and performance + battery profil

I'm done testing just let me know and I will give a good setting

I just flashed DreamKernel v2.7.2 on my stock XWLPT ROM.

Here are my first impressions => http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30780803&postcount=472

Benchmark results are already added to the first post of my thread.

Battery tests are still running.

Just one question:

Why are you using the battery charging animation without the "100%" when fully charged while phone is turned off?

I really like the "100%" ... maybe I am not the only one.

For those who are interested in kernel and stock ROM benchmark and battery test results, here afre my latest test results => http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1682765
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] hankhandsome:
i did find this a few days ago to be fair, and it seemed to resolve itself when i switched back to pegasusq (or however it's spelt ! :)). I'm going to try my current setup for a few cycles though and see how it goes. i tend to use my phone more for playing music with some gaming, followed by the odd call here and there, so sleepy might not be best in the long run. we'll see.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] grzesdroid:
BBS shows that it is okay, today I used phones as always, normally. Not from today kelnels I play and I know what and how, test batteries. the name governor, said he was asleep ;) and this is not the best for performance. As for me, good is pegasusq + my tweaks and keep the battery cool ;). sorry if I made mistakes, I do not know English very well
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Tallustus:
I guess it never bricked your device it just made it stuck at bootscreen ... If u wait a bit then the phone will make adb avaible a bricked phone will never do that ...

Also u should give more infos like rom used etc ...

Just telling us it does not work will not help at all ...

I think u are using rootbox or some rom that uses aroma if thats true it has been told several times now that aroma couses the kernel not to work as it should ...

Also please remember thats not our fault that u do not have a propper setup to recover your device
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] californicated:
Maybe you could add known problems to the OP?

- issue with DSP Manager

- incompability with Aroma

Some ideas for your kernel app, although i like extweaks:

- bln: check with proximity sensor if phone is in a pocket. if yes, no bln

- configure scrolling like fluxi

- bln widget (on/off)

been unplugged for 21 hours so far, with 43% remaining.

i'm getting "moderate signal" for 13 hours and i've also got 'deep sleep' for 12 hours as well, 'awake' for 9 hours (which sounds about right), 'no data connection' for 6 hours, 'no or unknown signal' for 6 hours as well.

The scary governor has some real scary problems. When listening to an mp3 and you off the screen, the music cuts and the phone gets sluggish/unresponsive for awhile.
