From what I know of the script, it will fix/clean the partition and remove the "dirty parts", this means that if you have apps/system files that are "dirty", the script will clean it as well. So if any of your apps don't work, this means that the app might not have been installed properly/update gave it problems, if you hvae problems with booting that means system files have been cleaned.

I'm not really good with tech stuff like that, but if I were you, I would restore my nandroid, backup app data of necessary apps, and then do a fresh clean install of my rom and kernel using these awesome scripts by Hawker (instructions are all there) and restore my backup:

GS2ROM wipe scripts: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2100558

I would also take a look at this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44174672&postcount=23

I hope this helps you out! Any more problems you can pm me (I won't be able to help much, trust me lol) or better still, pm Computoncio since he wrote the script.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erik07:
so if i restore my nandroid, that would only bring back the 'dirty parts' that was fixed by the script? when i installed my current rom, i did a clean install with it, full wipe using dori's recovery. haven't used those wipe scripts. :D

guys....I don't wanna burst your happy heart bubbles.....BUT.....here we go.....like [MENTION=4871480]bogdan1980[/MENTION] already figured out.....system is deeply frozen while charging and installing somewhat big apps...10mb+.....it froze for me today when I flashed slim bean android 4.3(I thought it was rom bug) while restoring from Titanium Backup(batch restore )....and it froze 3 times and changing I/o schedulers didn't change a thing.....well later when I went back to Slim I use now(sig)....it happened again....complete freeze multiple times....so...I think something isn't ok....because when charger is disconnected every install (it doesn't matter which on batch/single) it completes fine......although I must say that kernel really is a beast itself....on both Android 4.3 and 4.2.x....:)

little report

Hi v8.xx serie users, i mean dualbooters :) , i you follow dualboot news i post in XDA with use of DorimanX kernel, you already know that version before v8.38 i was recommended for dualboot (as i try to explain in some threads) was v8.35.

Now i can tell you and [MENTION=2376110]dorimanx[/MENTION] that dual boot with 4.3 1rst rom (i test one i usualy use and wait this expected v8.38 for flash it, with a cwm format data,system and cache) and a moded jb sammy 4.1.2 I provide and use in 2nd rom, works fine here.

(I think 4.2.2 rom must work in 2nd rom while we have a 4.3 rom in 1rst rom, afaik).

i want to add a last point, sometimes phone stuck, FC, block.... and we have to reboot . the 1rst think i do when it reboots is to go in folder /sdcard/LOST.DIR and /extSdCard/LOST.DIR (/storage/sdcard0/LOST.DIR and /storage/sdcard1/LOST.DIR) and see if there are some piece of files in, if there are, i delete them and reboot to clean space and re-check them.

(I found /system/lost+found/ and /data/lost+found/ folders too but rarely files in them)

i think this info can help some users that encountered trouble with loosing space in their partition. i think its the 1rst thing to do before anything else.

thanks DorimanX.

:) i have sucess zImage compiled kernel following 1rst instructions you have post, i install bbqlinux in a vmware ...., but as i dont understand git, linux , ......, and the rest...., i abandon this for now and i think for ever :( and its better.

are you sure that it's kernel fault?...did u try with any lower version.....and did you already upgrade your rom to Android 4.3?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamatechnoob:
Yes as [MENTION=4708140]chabstyle[/MENTION] mentioned, it would bring back the "dirty parts" AFAIK. My point was that you could back up some app data like game progress and messages (hopefully its not those data that are giving problems but the app installation files itself) so restoring would be easier for you.

Well those scripts are awesome! Saves all the manual work (I'm lazy) and it does the same or even better than what I can do (I'm a noob lol). Sometimes installation itself gives rise to problems, I've done multiple flashes for each rom I used because it was not exactly "clean" even after clean installs.

Hope I helped in some way!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph3n0mII:
Best gaming config is hard to find and can vary slightly or a lot for each i9100. What works for one might not work so well or at all for another.

Besides changing voltages or cpu/gpu speeds, testing governor and io scheduler combinations is the way to go, but if you want to find the best settings for gaming for your device, it could take you days or weeks.

There are quite a few fairly-recently-updated tutorials about govs and schedulers, I can't make any personal recommendations as i've never had a game on here.

Alternatively you could load the extreme_performance profile, take notes or screenshots of all settings(but ignore the nightmare-only ones) in the CPU-TUNING (AWAKE) section, then go back to stock profile to revert your overlock to stock speeds, then set gov/io settings to the ones from the extreme_performance profile settings you took note of.

It could also help to tune OOM settings of you have a lot of apps running, or 'Greenify' them.

If you're lucky, maybe some other people here might be able to recommend some 'game-optimised' settings or their profile as a base to start with:good:

Some feedback...

Hi Dori,

I am following the thread since some time and decided to finally share my opinion and give some feedback ‘bout the kernel.

Overall, I believe its current condition is a mess... big time!

Reading people’s posts I’ve thought it is going to be a great kernel. Have tested many versions back and so far I’ve never ever had a STABLE and reliable configuration. Speaking not only about 4.2…

Looking into the main thread – can you point a version which is completely stable? I doubt so… And the funny thing is that after many months of having 4.2 you have NO SINGLE version which is completely stable or bugless. Something vital for people who want to use their phones for real. And not for testing and debugging someones efforts to make a kernel... Just look into the dev-thread – it is SODs and freezes reporting without ending.

And again – look at the main thread. Half of the links are probably dead, information is mostly outdated. And there’s a huge list of kernels that have been DELETED… Because they have multiple bugs. And none of those marked as completely stable. Come on – tell me a single version that is stable and I will test it!

If you let me recommend you something – change the way you develop. Think about your priorities. Including tons of new code is useless compared to having stability. This is the point you need to start with – achieving a stable release. And then to build on top of that! Can you tell me how many people really use ALL these sets of Stweaks features? 5? 10%? Maybe 15…

I remember the good old times, using Siyah – I’ve managed to get often 40-50 DAYS of uptime! without having to reboot. The last few versions of your kernel I’ve used, showed bugs within the first 10 hours. .37 had SOD after an hour, .34 which was considered to be stable switched my screen on in the middle of the night... I’ve tried also .35, .36, many .2x versions as well…

I will keep on checking the thread hoping there finally be some bright change. Looks like you are reading and hearing people’s feedback, which is great. And don’t forget – having a few quality releases is much more worth it than having a huge amount of crappy versions…

9.14.

there you go

now to my response to your rant

are you aware of the difference in the model of the way gokhan released siyah to how dorimanx releases his kernels? siyah was internally tested for weeks, sometimes months on end by gokhan and on occasion other testers

with dori, that is us

do you complain that cm nightlies are unstable? if no, apply the same logic here, and look at it as debugging until a stable release

if yes, that's crazy and you shouldn't complain that testing sometimes has bugs

personally pretty much every release has been fine for me, and absolutely every kernel was at the very least usable daily
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bogdan1980:
Users that use dorimanx kernel like testing, it's an hobby. i have another phone for calls, in my s2 i have an unlimited data net card, plus voice, I'm using my s2 to play, find bugs, overclock and sadly Dorimanx is the only developer remaining on s2 kernel. If you use JB and want overclock you have only one choice. I do not mind unstable beta versions at all.

If my phone dies, thank god, i have assurance, will talk with wife and buy a new one, maybe an Optimus g like her till s4 prices gone down.

So, if you don't want unstable version, use 8.14/9.14. Or stock. Or jeeboo, or not.

Wife had an S2/jb official, 1.5ghz cpu, 400mhz gpu, for months no sod, no freeze, no nothing, except an bug with earphones, but she know how to elude it.

Thanks for this awesome kernel Dorimanx, I come from CM9 + Siyah and instantly missed the BLNWW function in CM10.1, thanks to your kernel is back :o. Not only that, but a lot of other great stuff :good:

There's an annoyance however, I don't know if it's known around here or not. I'll explain, it's related to mDNIe:

- In stock CM10.1, I had set mDNIe mode to Standard and Scenario to UI in Settings->Advanced Settings. This gives the most "normal" colors because of Standard mode and a bit of sharpness thanks to the UI scenario.

- Then I installed your 9.35 kernel (9.34 is the same BTW). After booting the phone the colors were all messed up, WAY too saturated and unnatural. I checked the mDNIe options and they were still Standard and UI. After playing with the options it's clear that they are not equivalent to those in CM10.1. I found Standard and CyanogenMod(Default) to be the closest ones to Standard and UI in CM10.1. After playing with the options I noticed the oversaturated colors were gone. However, after rebooting, the oversaturation is there again! Then if I go to mDNIe mode and change from Standard to another mode, for example Natural, and then back to Standard, the colors are OK again. But after each reboot, the colors are oversaturated again! I have to do the Standard->Natural->Standard trick after every reboot to get normal colors.

This is all with mDNIe Sharpness Tweaks disabled, I don't want them enabled, way too smooth for my tastes. Sharpness Tweaks enabled, however, fix the issue! The settings stick after rebooting.

Just want to know if it's a known bug or am I missing something?

Thanks again for the kernel mate! :highfive:

I just can't, it looks horrible. It's not pail colors, it's oversaturated colors. The thing is, it works correctly when you do Standard->Natural->Standard, so there is something going on in there. It just seems something related to bad initialization after reboot or something like that. Do you know what can be causing this?

I've attached a comparison. Left is CM10.1 + DorimanX after reboot. Right is CM9, CM9 + Siyah, CM10.1 and CM10.1 + DorimanX after Standard->Natural->Standard. just in case the order is messed up in the attachments, the more saturated image is CM10.1 + DorimanX after reboot.
