On 4.8:

A- If I connect the phone to the charger when the phone turns off (after the last vibration) the charging animation doesnt work properly.

B- If I wait around 10-15 seconds and then I plug the phone to the charger, the charging animation works.

On 4.9:

Yesterday at night I turned off the phone and plugged to the charger (A) and the animation didnt work. I didnt have time to test more.

It indicates to the kernel that you have su and supersu installed. Don't remove, if you do, Apolo will create it again when you reboot.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] s_m_a_s_h:
[MENTION=3445281]pedestre[/MENTION] got nothing but good to say about your kernels and developments.

However, what I have noticed with 4.9 regular is that sporadically when on lock screen when I type my pin to unlock, the numerical pad types its own numbers like a phantom in the machine.

It won't display the numbers I type, but randomly buttons are pressed and it takes a minute or two and then I am allowed to delete the generated numbers and input my correct pin.

It's not a huge issue (I can live with it), just wanted you to be aware.

FYI: I'm running Biftor V10.

Keep up the good work.

if recovery doesn't work (it should) try the TWRP method describe in OP:

Hi pedestre. Why dont work perfectly sharging animation when phone is off????
[Galaxy S II Android Development] It_ler:
Depends on many different things.

On my phone, with my apps, settings, etc. I also had better deep sleep ratio with Apolo v4.8b light than with Apolo v4.8b regular.

But now with Apolo v4.9 I already have about 99,3% of deep sleep during the night ... I can't believe that it will be better with light version.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedestre:
I dont know, if I knew it, I would fix it for sure . This issue happened in Apolo ics too.

I thought it could be because of lack of animation images in initramfs , but I added them in 4.9 and it has solved the issue a bit in some phones but not in all phones

Hi pedestre, dorimanx has updated s4 WiFi module..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gpkumaran:
I see a lot of people saying they have >90% deep sleep.. I seriously wonder how.. I`m not saying they are giving out wrong info but I`m simply not able to get such results anyway??? I tried using Neet ROM 4.8(with usual apps like fb,viber,whatsapp etc. wifi and mobil data on) with apolo 4.8 & 4.9.. With both of the kernel versions, I get just 30-50% Deep Sleep.. I get a lot of wlan_rx_wake with apolo 4.8 & 4.9..

But, When I kernelwipe and install Siyah, I don get them.. Please tell what i am doing wrong.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedestre:
30%-50% deep sleep is not normal with a light usage, usually is above 90%

It's not the first time some of you complain about wlan_rx_wake. Honestly I don't see it in my device. Today more than 9 hours with Wifi and 15 seconds of that wakelock.

But, you must know that wifi drains battery, the only way of avoid it is to disconnect it with screen off., but in my case, 3g drains more battery than wifi (with this new drivers)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] gpkumaran:
Thank you for the reply.. I usually get that wakelock 1/5th of the time for which wifi is on & screen off (10-15 mins for every hour).. I get that wakelock to a lesser extent with Dorimanx.. But with siyah, I don`t get it.. So, Iff you could spare some time to look into that kernel, please do so and if possible, correct the problem in this otherwise wonderful kernel.. thanks a lot again..

And BTW wifi may drain battery. but, i`m trying to point out it drains more than it should just because of the wakelocks.

hi there,

im using the kernel in version 4.9 for 3 days. im very pleased with the kernel. but there are still two things id like to change.

1. the auto brightness is too high. is there any possibility to change this without flashing an older kernel version?

2. the volume of the frontspeaker is not loud enough for me. before ive used a aosp rom with a kernel that supported stweaks, so i was able to change the volume. is there any possibility to make the same with apolo?

1st: Be happy with 4.9 and stop believing in stupid benchmark scores.

2nd: Roll back to 4.8 and run more benchmarks.

Hola (for CFI: Hello) Pedestre:

Flashed 4.9 regular TWRP and tried to do a backup which always comes up with finished backup and in red letter: failed. I can see, that it creates the folder for the backup and it´s subfolders and I have more than 4 gb free space (backup needs 1 GB). What can I do? I like the TWRP version, it´s easier to handle for my eyes.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedestre:
I'll test it by myself when I'll have some time

My beta-testers didn't tell me any issue about TWRP nandroids in 4.9 betas (there were two betas). It's strange because recovery hasn't changed in this version. It's the same TWRP recovery since 4.8.

Hi,

Congratulations for very stable and battery friendly kernel.

I'm testing currently (after shifting from Siyah6b4) regular version with some my custom UV. Results are promising. I'm using pegasusq/sio combo and have two questions to you:

1. I just realized that in Apolo Configurator app there are only some pegasusq parameters available for tweaking and some not (even they are existing in "/sys/devices/cpu/cpufreq/pegasusq" location). Did you do that intentionally or you plan to add them as well soon to the app? Currently I'm tweaking additional parameters (not available in the Apolo Configurator via additional commands which I put manually into init.d script)

2. You stated in your (quoted) post what features you are definitely not gonna implement into your new kernel's releases but could you please tell me what you are gonna implement then (do you have anything in mind already on your "to do" list for your future development)?

Regards
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kadivarz:
wooooooooooow many is tweakin this kernel too

dude this kernel's battery life will be doubled :D

cant wait for your tweaks if u gonna make them just like siyah's ones ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedestre:
Thank youuuu

1.There are 12 parameters maximum in Configurator. It shows some of them before the rest (Configurator looks this parameters before the others). For example, "up_threshold" is always shown. I must admit that I didn't review pegasusq because I usually use slp (which comes from pegasusq). If you can tell me what paremeters you consider important in pegasusq, I can add them to next version, so these parameters will appear in configurator. Otherwise, Configurator starts loading parameters from the folder.

2.I'm working in wifi drivers (I think this is important) and brightness_curve (from siyah). New interesting governors are always welcome. I have some ideas for configurator but I prefer not tell anything because they are only posibilities right now.

I try not to spoiled the kernel, that's my priority above all. If something doesn't convence to me or to my betas, it won't be implemented. Some features from other kernels have been ruled out in the past for that reason.

Now we are testing wifi drivers, so far so good :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ehmjay:

Feature request

hi,

thanks Pedestre for a great kernel, i'v been using it on every Sammy-based rom and always get great results. so kudus to you.

i was wondering if it would be possible to add a feature to the apolo configurator which would allow us to chose the time it takes for autobrightness to adjust. me, i like it to be immediate, without delay. this was available in J_Kay's mod when i used it on gingerbread roms, where i could set the delay to zero, or no delay. is this possible?

thanks again.

You had forgot to read the front page of this thread..pls read it....This kernel is just Undervolted at various necessary point and included some improvements for using with crossbreeder...So performance is same as stock...So No worries !

Try Apollo v4.9 and use " lux auto brightness" app from the Google market and configure the brightness level settings as per your requirement to control ur auto brightness in your mobile..

[Galaxy S II Android Development] s_m_a_s_h:
I used default setting for ages, as I found it gave better benchmark scores (only once at 10k+, but after repeatitive testing I averaged 8k3+) and in any case it always felt the same smoothness as other settings, yet recently I changed to hyper governor and light voltages.

Some apps are speedier, everything else feels the same smoothness...

It's a trial and error thing, testing and finding what works.

Though if you're constantly getting 10k+ then I can only think it's from lack of phone use, lack of running background apps or just apps or simply (as stated many times by myself and others) benchmarks/ing sucks big time and can't be trusted.

The only, and I mean the ONLY alternative to this is you've got a finely tuned phone...

So if you find the secret, please share ))

I use stock settings ;) .. because zzmoove sometimes it's a bit laggy and i like my GS2 fast :D

First thing i noticed was "Deep Sleep" ratio and battery drain during overnight comparing Apolo v4.8b Regular with v4.9 Regular:

- in v4.8b deep sleep was about 93% and in overnight it wasted 2 to 3% of battery (5 to 6 hours of my sleep);

- in v4.9 deep sleep is about 99% and in overnight it wasted 1% of battery (5 to 6 hours of my sleep);

The Deep Sleep ratio was the only fault i noticed in Regular version... Light had better ratio...

Now with v4.9 Regular, i have even better Deep Sleep than with previous v4.8b Light :victory:

Can't wait for the Apolo Configurator updates (USB and manually choose lowest brightness level) :fingers-crossed:
