My guess is it won't work with Changmin's builds anyway, though I hope Changmin sync's so the next Siyah he mod will be based on the Siyah 5 source... :D

My phone crashed today in a strange way. I go to Settings -> Applications -> working applications and then the screen froze and stopped responding to touch. The system still worked because I could turn off the screen and then turn it on but it shows the frozen view of working applications in settings (no lock screen). I had to reset the system by hold longer the power key. I'm using the build cm-10-20121010-EXPERIMENTAL-i9100-jbmali-oshwc2-vsync_sysfs-changmin with stock kernel.

There is a last_kmsg. Mayby this will help.

You know, being arrogant will get you nowhere. I'm sure you've asked questions in your lifetime that you could have answered yourself.

As for the senior member thing, the minute you get a certain number of posts you're automatically a senior member, so he doesn't "CALL" himself a senior member, XDA does.

Of course searching would be better before asking questions, but being polite and not being a troll is also good practice and one of the rules of XDA.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] juanono:
Vsync? Weren't we supposed to turn that thing off? :p

Seriously though, I'm using the vsync off builds for a couple of days and performance difference is negligible while giving me about an extra 25% screen on time.

I'm not so active on the forums, most of the times i just read without commenting, but when i need info i just use search and that's how i get most of the times needed infos.

I'm using NOOP as my i/o scheduler. I can't find sensible difference on my daily use, but it should be best for sdcard / db than SIO

and there is a cpu cycles reduction so some drop of performance (I can't feel it) and in theory, save some battery.

DorimanX just got a massive update (7.3) and it works with vsync off version... Booting into it now.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pulser_g2:
Not run it for long enough to check battery life (still charging), but if this can get 25% extra screen-on (even approximately), I'll be REALLY impressed...

In terms of "smoothness", I'd have to say while it's not AS smooth (ie. "buttery", as much as I hate using the word in this context), it's still perfectly good and not likely to be something you notice unless you choose to sit and repeatedly move your finger around the screen slowly, with your nose against it...

Just a quick question, can anyone on Mali with stock kernel get into cwm manually with hard buttons?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ozgame:
For me, vsync_sysfs 13.10 + dori 7.2 was the best combo. First time it made me go "wow" due to performance and battery life. But me being me, I always want the latest build.. Most likely going to go back to that old combo for a couple of days :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
These AudioOut_3 wakelocks, are they connected to Apollo or is this a general issue in Android? Sux not to be able to listen to music without getting those for the rest of the day...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pulser_g2:
Funny, I was on vsync_sysfs on siyah... I did go wow to both... I'll see how 17/10 without vsync goes, I may well return...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
How long do you have to use Apollo to get them, played music for a bit then stopped and no problems after
[Galaxy S II Android Development] karendar:
Nice to see you here, pulser. ;)

I switched to 17/10 without vsync + DorimanX because of the "battery life" claims. It's logical that disabling vsync would increase battery life somewhat, I'm just not expecting 25% as others have claimed.

I do agree that 13/10 sysfs and DorimanX was a great combo though. But then again, DorimanX is just a modified Siyah...

***EDIT***

Changelog for DorimanX 7.3 is pretty impressive. He also fixed the CRT off issues with wifi apparently.

After I listen to music, no matter for how long, I get them... And looks like you do to.

What I wonder is, if that is unique to Apollo or is an issue no matter the player..?

I used to get just over 3h (I use my phone mostly under direct sunlight) and well... check for yourself :thumbup:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
Tried 17/10 no vsync but had a random reboot and didn't notice any change on battery life. So back to vsync sysfs for me because a touch smoother. Pulser and espen in one day, this thread is getting some attention :)

Mine last 10 seconds longer than Apollo then stop
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
Eh, yeah, if you manually make sure Apollo is terminated as a process - I can do that too - but why should I bother with that? And you know as well as I do that Android doesn't automatically terminate processes...

And why are you continously NOT answering my question? If you don't have an answer, don't answer. I'm asking if other players have this same issue.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AMDPOWERFIST:
Player Pro (paid edition) has a variety of Audio wakelocks as well. Infact far more.

AudioOut_3

AudioOut_7

AudioOut_11

AudioOut_5

and a few others

each duration differs

no idea why, but was thinkin of switching to a more simple music player, apollo is crap imo

i use my phone for listening to music every single day, for hours a day. Either BT to my car, or BT to my gym headset or listening to music at work.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
Grrr, irritating. I'll try a couple, Double Twist, Google Music, see if they are as bad... Tnx for the info. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] AMDPOWERFIST:
Yeah quite. Especially when the AudioOut_"X"'s all running at the same time, 1 for 4minutes, another for 8 minutes, another for 2m 32s, another for 12m 18s etc

I will post some screenshots soon, so you can see what im talking about.

I understand there are wakelocks, but there shouldnt be a variety of different ones (i would assume)

If you find a good music player with less wakelocks - please lemmie know.

Cheers

EDIT:

Ok so after some testing. It seems as tho Audio_Out_3 is the wakelock that is required to actually push music out.

The alternative Audio_Out_X (X = other numbers) only occurs when the audio is being pushed out of a Bluetooth channel, not headphone channel.

So it doesnt matter what music player you use, you will always get these Audio_Out_X's regardless.

Also just switched from Player Pro to this "Music Folder Player"

It drains alot less power and memory than Player Pro and most other music players. Its a simplistic design.

Testing results:

Player Pro: 20mins music played = 4% battery drain (screen on, after reboot, same 6 songs)

Music Folder Player: 20mins music played = 1% battery drain (screen on, after reboot, same 6 songs)

massive difference there.... could just be the music player itself, but glad i tested it lol

Are there any optimizations or modification done to the sound libs (or anything related) in the Mali builds cuz they sound of higher volume compared to the official nightlies even with stock kernel

I tried Poweramp PRO (yeah, paid version) and...you know what ? I stayed with Apollo.

I know the latter is a piece of crap, I have to wait for it to download artist´s pictures and does not show coverart but Poweramp continuously had "hiccups" when playing.

On the other hand, Apollo works wonderful with DSP.

BTW, is it me or when listening to music with screen off CPU jumps to 200 Mhz ?

Yes, Changmin boosted the volume. In his stock kernel.

Superuser issue? Install SuperSU and be happy. :)

In CWM recovery flash ROM, then Kernel, then gapps ('for good measure'), then wipe cache partition, then wipe dalvik cache, last fix permissions ('for good measure') and reboot.

Not necessary to flash gapps or fix permissions but doing so just minimize the possibility for issues to the barest minimum possible. 'For good measure'. :D
