Thanks, I am currently using the backup and restore option -- BUT I've thought there may be some easier way for it -- simply because I'm always changing the same few settings, other are untouched...

Thanks for suggestion

Now i am on V10.43v113 but have charging problem around of 2hours still on 0% lol

Goodluck

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmagician:
Thanks for the replay.

I've never changed the voltages -- up until now... The device was working on 1.4GHz for quite some time but never with OV'ing it, Maybe a change in the recent kernels was causing it to require more power (as I'm holding pretty much no knowledge of kernel's internals -- so it is just a wild guess).

Anyway, I've now increased voltages for all frequencies by 25mv (I don't know if it required to OV ALL of them but...) -- seems it is now working fine.

I'll try later UV some of the lower frequencies, as I assume that the range between 300MHz and 1.2GHz does not need to be OV'ed.

Any input about this recent assumption is welcome

Screen shots from today on latest slimsaber w/ dori v114. Ondemand and bfq. Undervolted CPU and GPU. Didn't play many games. If I spend an hour on candy crush its under 3 hours of SoT. Running smooth and fast!

I really want to use nightmare because I like all the tunables but I've been having trouble taming it. Maybe someone could give me advice? With default values, seems like my CPU is always hunting for the correct frequency. I think its because inc_cpu_load at 10% is way too low. Cpu keeps going from 200 to max... Also, could someone tell me about freq_up_brake? Thanks!

I'm on nightmare now. Tweaking and experimenting on my own. I really don't think the default settings are good. I mean, if I'm reading correctly, gov scales up freq at 10% load? Doesn't seem right. Can't find anything on Google search for this gov so I'll experiment for awhile more...

Edit: try enabling CPU info in developer options and watch your CPU frequency. Mine is constantly bouncing between min and max freq even when doing nothing on home screen.

I will make an video with s2/note3 when opens apps, games with fps meter. Gta vicecity, maybe 15fps on note, at least 34-40 minimum on s2@400gpu. And i think that i know why on latests phones does that, with 2-2.3ghz phones clocks almost never raise that high because of heat and mainly 1-2 core, not 4. in any game it play in 1.2-1.5ghz, and gpu will not raise at full speed(450mhz), maybe 2xx mhz. I need to set Gpu(not CPU) governor to performance, to stay at 450mhz. So for all s2 users, pay attention to these new phones... Expensive but not quite fast. I think that Note 2 at 200$ is best buy.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheImpossibleEnemy:
Yeah,those full HD phones needs to push some 2 million pixels,5 times more compared to s2, to achieve the same performance at native resolution.Guess current GPU's can't keep up to that.Then again heat problems...That's why I think 1920x1080 move on today's phones was/is a complete failure,720p/768p was already enough even for 5,x inchers.

Just my 2 cents
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adinaky:
An even bigger fail is the QHD screen. I saw that most people with a G3 only complaining about the awful baterry life.

Why would anyone want a screen like that? I mean it's impossible to see any difference compared to 1080 anyway.

I just hope that future phones will stay at 1080. This will be the limit for me. If i buy a QHD device, for example, I will spend money on something useless.

This is why I hope they stay like they are, because giving money on something I don't want is not my first choice for sure.

It's not the screen. Technology is good and will only get better but with more power consumption but the batteries of today are a let down to the masses. Reverse polarity batteries are what we need. Have a read about the batteries of the future. Even normal AA batteries that you use for TV remotes will change soon.

Hello Guys. I need a straight and I hope to be in a correct Section.

I flashed the latest kernel Realise Dorimanx and I have to say that it's really very good.

The problem is that this feedback:

1) Since I run a Nandroid Backup from Recovery Dorimanx

2) The Restore start

3) in the middle gives me the following error: "can not mount sacard / anrroid_secure."

Some advice?

Thanks in advance. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hopper8:
Yep, you're in the right section.

When you get that error, does the nandroid still restore correctly? Or does the restore fail? If I remember right, the nandroid continues to restore but some aspects are not restored?

Sent from my Nexu5
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glowerita:
Thanks for Your replay. :)

To be honest I havn't checked if the Nandroid finish in a success, then I don't know. I have taken for granted that it fails. :(

But your observation is correct in effect.

I can tell you that, from Recovery, I've tried to make the Advance Restore (Boot, System, Data, Caches, sd-ext4) and the Restore gives me that error when I arrive in "Caches" voice.

At that point, to Restore the System, I recover System Flashing the Great Siyah (my prefear Kernel :)), recovering the "Old Restore (make with Siyah of course) and then riFlashing Dorimanx on Siyah.

I have to check if the Restore, as rightly You say, fails.

But ... is a known problem that Dorimanx Recovery gives this kind of warning?

I'm on a JB 4.1.2, cooked by me.

Thanks again for your reply. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hopper8:
Hmm.... I honestly can't remember if the nandroid actually restores properly. I don't own this phone anymore (well, I lent it to my brother :p ) so I can't test. Maybe you could try and see.

I've seen the warning before, yes. But I can't remember the outcome, it was a long time ago.

What version of Dori are you on? Because if you're using a beta version with StanTRC recovery (check the beta thread), I don't think this error exists. Well I've never seen it anyway on the new recovery.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glowerita:
Hi Bro!

Like You suggested I've try to Restore the Nandroid Backup, ignoring the error "can not mount sacard / anrroid_secure" that appear after Restore of the "Data Partition".

I confirm that everything still works. :)

To be totally sure I have make a Format Factory Reset before the Restore.

I hope that my Test can be useful for anyother Users.

Thanks again Friend. :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hopper8:
Official 9.43 release is a long time ago. You may want to look for the beta thread and test out a few beta kernels, a lot has happened in the meantime. Unless of course you don't feel the need :p

But as far as your question goes, have a look in the profiles thread: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/general/dorimanx-custom-stweaks-profiles-t2432029

Read the first page and then the last few pages, you'll find a post by [MENTION=3763274]rkoby13[/MENTION] with his profiles, which are pretty popular. Mine is there too but it's outdated as I no longer own an S2.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raaneem:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hopper8:
Yep, that's also fine. But bear in mind, whatever software you install past 4.1.2 on an S2 is never intended to be on there in the first place ;) But sure, stick with the version you have.

When you want to use a profile from the thread I linked, don't restore the profile (you'll be on a different kernel version to all the guys in that thread). Instead, open the profile and manually set yours to match it. Seems weird, but else you'll quite likely be attempting to match a profile which isn't compatible if you force it to use the profile you choose from the thread.

Kernel 8.43 on 4.1.2 XXMS2 - behavior after data partition resize

Hi,

In general, I think the Dori Kernel has a great amount of customizable options and love it for that reason.

However, I notice a odd behaviour after resizing my data partition (repartitioning internal SD) to 12.9 GB. I did a nandroid backup before and resized the partition in parted. When reformatting the data partition manually in recovery, all looked fine and the new size of 12.9 GB was recognized. However, after restoring the CWM backup in recovery, I got the old partition size again. 1st I thought I dd something wrong, so tried formating /data in recovery and aplied CWM backup again. Same thing happened once more.

Then I went for the very manual approach, formatting /data, extracting tar via ADB instead of using CWM restore in recovery mode. This worked fine.

Out of curiosity, I flashed Phil's Kernel (PhilZ-cwm6-XWLSW-XEU-5.06.1-signed.zip), which I used for routing before. For an unknown reason, the CWM restore there lead to a full size data partition and my 12.9 GB space showed up directly this way.
