this happens also on Pac 443 w/ Gustavo's 21-6-Kernel...reflash of 21-4-Kernel solves it again n creates LOST.DIR how it should.

Yep, the whole BLN stuff seems buggy. If BLN is enabled the LEDs don't stay off on display touch and such.

Synapse hangs after bootup and STweaks throws 'unexpected error' at start. The xml is probably corrupt and has side effects. I have no LOST+FOUND bugs on CM11.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Twiq:
[MENTION=4217277]Gustavo_s[/MENTION]

Yesterday I mentioned about lost.dir issues on your latest build, and as promised, here are my logs..

i don't find any weird output in logcat, but renaming, deleting and recreating lost.dir still filled with weird ascii stuff.

I spotted that the kernel looks for specific framework (framework_PAC, MSIM and other stuff) this is not called by stock slimsaber kernel.

and it derps alot of them :D could this be the issue? or maybe it's just a detection method for rom compatibility?

Thank you for your continuous support :good:

(To be edited, xda app can't post txt files logcats uploaded)

edit: Running latest 4.4.4 slimsaber btw
[Galaxy S II Android Development] DualJoe:
Don't try to create that folder yourself. Go to recovery and do a fsck on these partitions. Save all important data from these partitions beforehand.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Twiq:
i have done that and created the LOST.DIR while using stock kernel for workaround, however doing that does not stop the kernel from generating LOST<insert your favourite ascii char here>.DIR later on..

What I'm worried about is that when a folder or file name gets filled by ascii text, it would cause or is one of the signs to file/folder corruption..

Moreover this LOST.DIR is the folder container to recovered corrupt files/folder/disk cluster :) if you know what i'm talking about
[Galaxy S II Android Development] DualJoe:
Read my post again. That's exactly what you should not do.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chrhei:
LOST.DIR belongs to the EXT4 partition. Do a fsck as already recommend or even better a complete factory reset including re-partitioning everything. It's not the kernels fault.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Twiq:
Read my post again, i did that using stock kernel.. Not gustavo's build.. Recreating the lost.dir was accessible normally and perfectly done using other kernel, even on windows this is easily done, but not on latest gustavo's kernel.

You could see other people rolling back to older build/kernel and lost.dir problems are gone. Why and how this is happening is what i want to know, and i bet gustavo wants to know too if there's unusual stuff going on his release.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 089man:
I have no issues with latest build. All works fine with cm based Spirit-Rom. Also no problem with the lost.dir

I9100 Tapatalk 4, Spirit-Rom 4.4. 3
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Twiq:
It's funny.. Thats the first thing i did after knowing this issue. If you see my older posts, i've been giving advices to people to run fsck_msdos (for FAT partitions) from terminal emulator to fix issues..

And another thing, lost.dir is not filesystem specific. Afaik almost all filesystem has their own lost+found (lost.dir), they are used as container to relink recovered (bad) clusters on the partitions..

Oh well, i'm only giving feedback.. I hope [MENTION=4217277]Gustavo_s[/MENTION] could clarify which is normal and which is not

Battery drain in usage (screen on) is higher than with dorimanx but no more soft reboots and fc's of SwiftKey keyboard in whatsapp :)

Settings are saved now but after reboot the illumination of soft keys is on although I disabled it in slim saber, what could be the reason?

I have to disable "force disable touchkeys" and enable it again under BLN tab then the touch keys stay off until next reboot..

I also have the problem with lost network after reboot, after another reboot it works. This is definitely a kernel error [MENTION=4217277]Gustavo_s[/MENTION]

Edit: and what about Screenshots? Something goes wrong, also after reboot still the same.

Only one bug so far: Gallery doesn't work, crashing with the stopped working error.

Using the latest omni here. I had the same issue with the previous version of the kernel (21.04).

I've tried to clear the data, stop the app and reboot a few time but without any luck.

Any of you have this problem?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Gustavo_s:
You have to disable 4x MSAA in synapse or in developer settings

---------- Post added at 02:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 AM ----------

One more thing, which I'm not sure if it's related to the kernel or not: in order to fix the previous problem with the crashing gallery app, I've deleted the DCIM folder. Now I have a new one but with a strange name, something like DCIM and some weird characters after.

Is this a big issue? Should I worry about my internal memory being corrupted or something?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] 089man:
Im right, this must enabled or not? I have never enabled this. Not in synapse and in developer settings this is also not enabled here.

I had never crashes?? Or you mean if MSAA enabled crashes can come?

[MENTION=4217277]Gustavo_s[/MENTION]

Regarding ascii chars in lost.dir i was using vfat volume, so i narrow it down to fat FS sources.

The only difference i spotted from your source with CM11 and slimsaber is the inode.c https://github.com/gustavoss/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412/blob/master/fs/fat/inode.c

CM11 and slimsaber last updated to samsung update 1 by codeworkx while yours was on May (linux ver bump?)

Refer https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412/blob/cm-11.0/fs/fat/inode.c and https://github.com/SlimSaber/kernel_samsung_smdk4412/blob/kk4.4/fs/fat/inode.c

Have you tried reverting that one?

Now this should affect Fat volumes.. I haven't tried on other formats. I've formatted my internal and external to exfat recently but i still haven't got the time to try your kernel yet.

Will do more investigating later this evening.

By TWRP.

1. Reboot into recovery

2. Select "Mount"

3. Select "Internal Storage" then "Mount USB Storage"

4. Connect to the PC and make a backup of your internal storage (drag and drop on PC the internal storage's content)

5. Now select "Wipe" on Recovery, then "Advanced wipe"

6. Select "Internal Storage" and "swipe to wipe"

7. Upon completion of the procedure, instead of "Internal Storage" will have "EMMC", select it and tapped on "Repair or change file system."

8. Select "Change File System and then exFAT......choose ok

9. Restore your backup on internal storage and reboot

10. Done!
