For some reason the older set runs much more responsive and smoother within the UI.. very noticeable..

1029-EXPERIMENTAL-i9100-jbmali-oshwc2-vsync_sysfs + Siyah-s2-v5.0b2-vsync_sysfs-1030

vs

1031-EXPERIMENTAL-i9100-vsync_sysfs + Siyah-v5-vsync_sysfs-changmin-1031

Does that mean that the new version is using a different hardware composer ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
Tried 4.2 keyboard and works fine, takes some getting use to tho. From what I have read it only works on English US
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gustavo_s:
portuguese-BR working fine here
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
It just what I have read haven't tried any other languages yet. Its kind of cool when you get the hang of it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] drsoran2:
I just don't get it! I'm running the same ROM as everybody and I can't get the 4.2 keyboard to work. I tried it via the apk, through flashable zip, wiped cache, dalvik, fixed permissions. I even uninstalled stock asop keyboard (backed up before and also swype as backup solution). Still no luck! As soon as I select it, it force closes :(

Also, isn't 4.1.2 supposed to enable one finger expansion and collapse of notifications? I tried it with a screen shot in the notification drawer and I still need two fingers to expand/close it. Is this normal?

what was the combination that gives 814MB RAM? I can't find it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
Well im not posting app just a xda thread of the apk :)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=33501050
[Galaxy S II Android Development] drsoran2:
still no luck! :(

I think I might have found out why I don't have 814MB RAM, might be this is only with stock kernel of the ROM and not with siyah?!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
Yeah, so I uploaded the 4.2 keyboard to www.farmfield.se/ROMS/ and pls don't distribute that link outside this thread - my ROMS folder is all for you guy's in here. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
Just to check you are changing keyboards in languages and inputs to android keyboard not aosp keyboard
[Galaxy S II Android Development] drsoran2:
Holy crap!! It is working now! I tried flashing it one last time (deleted latinimegoogle.apl and latinemedictionary.apk from system/app before) and now everything works fine. I can type in my native tongue, German, switch to English also. Swyping is working, underlining of wrong words...everything!!

Only thing is: I will never understand why it is working all of a sudden, didn't do anything different than before!

Yes, I tried changing these settings in Android keyboard. Now I don't have asop keyboard anymore. I've uninstalled it while trying the new one. Now, after all the installing, freezing, uninstalling I can't even install 4.2. apk anymore! I already deleted the apk from system/app folder but still can't reinstall it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] itchetrigr:
If your on aosp your suppose to just install the apk, you seemed to have flashed the zip instead which is meant for official android. Just re-flash your ROM. Then install the apk from farmfields site. It's working perfectly here.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
You shouldn't be having this sort of trouble, it went straight on my device. I'm on newest vsync sysfs, You should still have aosp keyboard there to switch back to.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] drsoran2:
I tried both ways, but had no luck. But I got it working now, don't know why. But it's working!

AOSP keyboard is gone, but not a big problem. If 4.2. keyboard should fail, I can always reactivate Swype!

One other thing: Android 4.1.2 brings one finger notification expansion, right? Because for me it is not working.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
Now you just have to practice using it :)

Edit didn't no you flashed zip, thought you just installed apk
[Galaxy S II Android Development] itchetrigr:
Aosp keyboard is gone because you flashed the zip which overwrites the aosp keyboard with the new 4.2, its meant as a system app with stock android only. Glad you figured it out. Just re flash your rom to get aosp keyboard back.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] greenemperor:
Which governor/scheduler combo works better with siyah v5?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
PegasusQ + SIO is what I run since like forever, but Franco (like Franco kernel for Gnex, Nex7) says all the governors are essentially BS & placebo and he refuses so implement anything but 'ondemand', hehe, so who knows what's actually best... :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] artie1:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
Nice look but video cam doesn't work and extra gallery but both seem to work. Maybe because I'm on siyah v5 both cams still 8mp
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shaunnicho:
Rear camera video recording doesn't work for me... neither does the photo sphere :(
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gustavo_s:
to get photosphere working you have to change your model to GT-I9300 on build.prop

it takes the photosphere but you cant edit it, and video cam does not work.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
Photo sphere sort of works here. I stood in the center of a room then shot 360 then above and then below then captured and it wasn't to bad. Look in your new gallery
[Galaxy S II Android Development] petedaddi:
Yes it works for me, rendering thing appeared in notification area. Video records in 480p but his all messed up when ya play it back.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] HANDSY:
Just installed latest build with stock settings, everything running well, no problem with installation (without factory reset). Good to see some familiar names here that I haven't seen on the official CM10 thread for a while.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shaunnicho:
When i put the photo sphere on it says my s2 isn't supported
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
That works better but bottom half still seems a little off

Try what Gustavo_s said a few posts back. I didn't have any problems except video cam plus Im glad I replaced shutter sound, those bleeps would drive me nuts :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shaunnicho:
Sorry im a noob, how do you do that please?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Spiralzz:
From a file manager go to system root > system > build.prop and edit.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] shaunnicho:
Worked it out thanks... its working but its buggy can't wait til we get the full functions
[Galaxy S II Android Development] manulemaboul:
Upgraded from 0923B + siyah 0923 to 0924 stock kernel, and what I can say is that's as smooth using stock frequencies as it was with the previous build and CPU@1400 GPU@133/160/200/267, maybe even a little more.

I've not the micro stutter I've had before while scrolling fast.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
I run at 100-900 MHz and I had no stutter at all with 23B or 24. Very cool.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] manulemaboul:
Seems like stock kernel is working better than siyah :).
[Galaxy S II Android Development] superleeds27:
Hmm.

Might look into that, can we adjust voltages in System Tuner on the stock Kernel?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
Thats what I thought at first, but then started to notice lags here and there
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
This might be true on your device, it certainly is not, on mine. But we know this, the S2's have 'personality' thus can behaving quite differently from device to device. Find what works best on your device and stick to it. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] II_DiE_4:
So what version should i flash? Linaro with stock kernel? Linaro with Siyah? or other combination?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
That's the good thing its all there to see what's best on your device. Mine seems to like 23b with vsync 23/09 siyah but that may not be best for you. Can only try yourself and find out
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ¶ha€dru$:
haven't updated since 918build with siyah and just set up 924linaro with stock kernel and def a huge step up from 918..mayb that's not surprising but a great indicator for how well this project is going

Let this be a lesson for thee. Thao shalt not judgeth your fellow Android userth premathurely. :D

Now back on topic.

So I lost root today and in my efforts to get it back I actually jumped between all three major builds, the official nightlies (19/9 + 21/9), Kalgecin's build and the vsync modded build. Seriously, it's hart to tell them apart in terms of performance. I dunno what happened with the nightlies but they are very smooth now, even using the stock CM10 kernel. I am very surprised. Just a few days back, this build was noticeable faster, especially in the apps like the stock browser a.s.o... Today I can't tell the builds apart. Very weird...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] fr3quency:
Haha, couldn't resist today. I went to my friend's house and plugged this mofaka! Charged to 77%, got home, was at 56% and flashed latest build.

Really needed my dose...

Edit: as for the memory leak fix, balls. :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kalpik:
New build out :P
[Galaxy S II Android Development] DSC05:
I guess it's just placebo that the nightlies are as smooth as this one :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] carlocarrera:
if i wanna try it, can i have both, my old cam and the new one ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bombaybadboy:
I still have both, it doesn't delete your old cam just adds new cam + new gallery
[Galaxy S II Android Development] carlocarrera:
flashed and lost my old cam... -_-
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Spiralzz:
Look carefully... maybe Apex decided to hide the older one for you :P

But I have both the cameras, in fact, 3 include camera jb+... plus two galleries (third for camera jb+)...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] petedaddi:
Me too and I can't understand why people are having to edit build prop.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] carlocarrera:
if this would be the case, where do i find my old cam and gallery ?

using nova btw.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Spiralzz:
Wipe /system. Flash ROM and GApps.... and I was just kidding about the hiding part... ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] carlocarrera:
i needed to backup anyway because i was stuck in a blackscreen after i tried to make a "panorama" and did a reboot before it was finished.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheSpaceManatee:
Lol! This thread is so OT right now :D anyway I would like to try that cam too.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
Running 31/10 sysfs + Siyah 31/10 sysfs and the 4.2 cam incl. sphere thingie works perfectly for me. Though it's basically the same crap as Microsoft Syntheyes, so it's about as amazing as the iOS 6 panorama function, just carp you used to need external apps for, but in no way new in terms of functionality... :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mammenj:
In the new build which hwc is being used?

Is it the one from note or open source?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kicksilver:
This slide2wake is awesome!!!

ps: is there an app to substitute the home button, like in iOS?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] manulemaboul:
an app to substitute the home button ? you mean soft keys ? like the nav bar we can activate and configure from settings -> system ?

sorry but no, there's no app for that.

You are right, if you tick that no boot logo option in stweaks, when booting up it would take you directly to the cm10 bootlogo and would bypass the Siyah bootlogo. :)

That's it!

Thanks a lot!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
Siyah 5b2 I think it is, the last sysfs... And Sphere thingie works great, video does not though - but I use Camera JB+ as main cam and video works in that so...

But I say it again. This sphere photo thingie, until it's integrated with Gmaps, G+ and what not, it's just a gimmick as it's not really something new. Integrating it into other services, that'll be very cool though, being able to show the pic's off in the browser...

Button savior/easy touch, its on play store
[Galaxy S II Android Development] manulemaboul:
Why don't just use the nav bar ?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kicksilver:
Because it consumes precious screen area.

not that much, way less than button savior actually.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] mammenj:
Same here
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
Eh, there's three (hw-) buttons, all of them with dual functionality through long pressing. If you need more buttons than that, you'd probably prefer a 1980's Ericsson phone... :D #wtfness
[Galaxy S II Android Development] manulemaboul:
Damn you farmfield :p.

It's the exact opposite, the goal is to have less buttons. (stop using physical buttons actually)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Neil15:

Im mcm's loyal follower too.. lol ;)

Never tried any other rom.. 2nd reason is that I hate factory reset just to try other rom. Haha!!

Sent from my changminized beast
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Farmfield:
Well, the simplest way to not having to touch your device at all is to throw it in a nearby river. :D

So you are seriously having issues with buttons. Like it's a problem having a homekey. I mean, if the key is there - and on an S2 it is there - why not use it. Imo it's dumber not using a key being there than using it for what it was designed for. But perhaps that's just me then. :D

I was gonna replace my S2 with the Gnex but the lack of a homekey (and no screen coating) is why I didn't replace it but instead got rid of the Gnex. I don't miss it at all, that horrid, non oleophobic crap apparatus...

Matter of taste, I love the navbar, really pratical actually, you should give it a try.

I don't like the long press thing, waste of time, and think that the physical home button looks quite old and obselete, but it's just my personal opinion.

Noops, I get FC when I try to set alarm & it's also not compatible with 'ClockQ' (widget with touch to open clock/set alarm) so not interesting for me - as yet.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] manulemaboul:
Thanks, using this app I can see I can't go under 900mV (I can set 800 in extweaks, but still 900 measured), and that just scrolling (tapatalk, or sms app, or whatever) raises GPU usage up to 60%. 60%, just scrolling some text or 2D graphic :eek:, some of my 3D games eat less. Angry gran run for exemple, eats only 50%.

That's proving my point: GPU freqs don't only impacts games, it impacts the UI, sometime even more.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gustavo_s:
that depends, scrolling uses 60% of 100mhz + or -, gaming uses 50% of 267mhz.

i got this:

Sonic CD

GPU Clock: 62Mhz

GPU Voltage: 900mv

GPU usage: 76,5%

76,5% of 62Mhz = 47,43mhz being used.

Mass Effect infiltrator:

GPU clock: 160mhz

GPU Voltage: 950mv

GPU Usage: 72,5%

72,5% of 160mhz = 116mhz

;):good:

hope you got it
[Galaxy S II Android Development] manulemaboul:
Nope.

scrolling uses 60% of 133Mhz, angry gran run uses 50% of 133Mhz, threshold for step 2 is set at 70%.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Neil15:
Long pressing of home button shows recent apps right? And that's what you want to avoid if im right? Try this to avoid long pressing of home button.

On your desktop, then the apps on the dock drawer. You can change gestures settings. Like for me, swiping up shows recent apps so that I dont need to long press. ;) Hope it helps.
