1. Don't know if it works that way, but i can say that max brightness doesn't lower too much... i lower it because stock min brightness is too bright for me (-10 is the ideal for me when i'm in places with little/none light for example... rarely i put the brightness in max).

2. Yes, all wi-fi, gps, 3g off ...

Hope it will work for you as is working for me :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] joshdax2:
OK guys so this is my report to this kernel.

Something strange happened today. I am on NeatROM 5.5 running Apolo 4.13 V0 using pegasusq + row. I've hit 3 hrs screen time and 19 hrs on battery with 5% battery left. I was a bit disappointed cuz the member that recommended me the scheduler-governor combo said he had 5 hrs screen time. So what i did is I put the phone on download mode. I did this cuz I think the battery percentage is wrong and rebooting the phone in recovery mode doesn't actually solve the HUGE drop battery percentage at all. So first, I plugged in my phone to my charger, rebooted in download mode (let it stay here for 5 seconds then turn on the phone while still plugged in), waited the phone to boot up completely and to my surprise, battery was on 53%! I kept using it and I've achieved almost 6 hrs of screen time and 38 hrs on battery! :eek:

It's strange but no complaints here! My s2 is on par with note3 in terms of screen time! :D

I hope this helps out some people.

Glad it worked well for you too the combo Pegasusq + Row :good:

I'm uploading a new beta2b for

CM kit kat ROMS

.

This beta should be used in 4.4.2 CM ROMS, when your battery indicator is fixed in 1% using beta2. I'm not sure which is the current CM development. I've tested in CyanFox and CarbonROM and both had the battery issue with beta2. So, if you have this issue with beta2 , please use the new beta2b. Rest is the same as beta2, but recovery is TWRP (it will be the Apolo recovery in the future)

Enjoy¡¡

I suggest you update supersu an binary with stock kernel (before flashing Apolo), then reboot (important) and test that root is ok. After that you can flash Apolo.

There's an issue updating supersu and I don't know what it is right now

[Galaxy S II Android Development] shadynit:
because regular ver kernel is undervolt so the gpu did not get the proper voltage to perform. in light ver there is no undervolt . the volage is same as the stock voltage
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
I think you are wrong mate.

I think Apolo Regular also uses stock voltages also.

Edit: My bad, light is the stock voltage. Regular is slightly undervolt by 50mV
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Andreas75k:
No, regular is slightly undervolted.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedestre:
Yes, GPU in regular is undervolted (50 mv)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] yavu:
Can we generally say that all Apolo kernel versions except light has less graphics performance and therefore games run worse/fc?

For good GPU performance better to use only light version?

Any speed difference according browsing on webseites or video playing?

Guys, for slimkat you should use beta2b for cm Roms. If you use omni version, you will loose root unless you update binary with supersu and reboot with stock kernel before flashing apolo
[Galaxy S II Android Development] michaelz93:
I'm using the beta 2 of Omni with no problems in slimkat. I'm updating to latest slimkat, should I use the beta2b for CM like you say or stick with the apolo omni version? And With this beta2b for CM in Slimkat should I install Supersu too?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedestre:
If you don't have problems with root, you can use omni version, no problem.

My post was for people with new installation.

Slimkat has the superuser app, with cm beta2b it is not necessary to user supersu.

Regards!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] tutsipoppy:
I'm on SlimSaber (Slimkat Unofficial) 20140105.

I had SU installed with updated binaries on stock kernel. Flashed Beta2b for CM (Regular).

I'm experiencing jerkiness (low framerate type) while scrolling, opening or closing apps, etc.

Any suggestions?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] joaonuno:
would it be possible to choose one governor for awake time and other for sleep time?

i've read something about that some time ago and tried to look for it but didn't find anything relevant. I think it would be great if we could create some sort of profiles in apolo configurator that could be activated in some defined conditions....

regards.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hopper8:
You can do that with an app such as setCPU, to make profiles. Be careful not to set anything which clashes with the settings in apolo configurator, or you'll likely have problems.

Hi Pedestre,

yesterday I tried beta2b with CyanFox 2.0.2. I experienced unstable Apolo configurator (crashed sometimes while applying settings) and BLN doesnt work.

My BLN control app says the libs are not installed. Apart from that I experienced awesome battery life.

Do you recognize these problems?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedestre:
Hi, try this:

- Remove Apolo folder in /system (if folder exists)

- Go to Recovery

- Wipe Cache

- Flash Apolo

- Wipe cache again

- Reboot

Tell me if it works ...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] damnation333:
Been using SlimBean 4.3.1 for a good while now with stock kernel, but switched to apolo now to try something new.

Man, I love it. All day in work and I still got 73%. I normally would be down to 30-40% now and would plug the phone in.

I installed the regular kernel. Am I right in the assumption that if I change the voltages in the Apolo Configurator to another profile that this is equivalent to flashing one of the other kernels?

Thanks,

damnation
[Galaxy S II Android Development] joaonuno:
changing the values in Apolo Configurator isn't the same as installing the kernel because it changes other values (GPU for example) that aren't accessible in the configurator.

Read OP carefully as it explains other stuff like to get the best battery life it doesn't mean you have to install version extremev2. For my phone the best is v1, and it changes from device to device.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pilgrim011:
Hi pedestre. I have a few questions regarding kitkat versions of the ROMs.

As I recall, you said that there were problems with Philz recovery with backup and restore on kitkat ROMs. I am currently using your beta1 kernel with Philz recovery, and I have just performed backup and restore succesfully on infected's CM11. Could you tell me what exactly is the problem with Philz recovery and should I abandon beta1 for some reason? Also, could you upload beta1 light version, because I don't like undervolting, even if it's by a small margin? If not, how can I disable GPU undervolting, since there is no GPU tab in Apolo configurator?

I tried beta2b, but I don't what is the difference from beta1, except twrp recovery? Regarding twrp, when you mount mass storage in recovery, only internal storage is mounted, although both external and internal sd cards are checked. Is it twrp bug and is it possible for you to solve this, or it's up to twrp team?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedestre:
Hi,

about restoring, the problem happens when you change for example from kit Kat to 4.3.1. In second reboot bootloop. If you don't change base you probably won't have any problem.

Sorry beta1 light is not possible, it's old and I can't build it now because I made many changes. I'm afraid, you can't disable gpu uv, but I'm sure you can't notice any issue with regular voltages. In fact, GPU is not undervolted with new Mali ( now in mali v3 stock has the regular apolo voltages by default).

Changes in beta 2 are related to Linux update, WiFi drivers update, new bfq scheduler, row scheduler update and maybe something else I don't remember. I recommend you update.

Twrp recovery can mount both cards but not at the same time. There is a check before you press mount button. There you can choose which sdcard you want to mount. Look carefully the screen.

BTW there is a Twrp manager app in Google play, you can use it with Twrp recovery.

Regards!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pilgrim011:
Thanks, I moved to beta2. If anyone runs into issue (failed to create backup folder or something like that) while trying to backup from twrp either to internal or external sd, solution is to manually enter a name for the backup.

Hi pedestre,

I supposed you installed 6.2b (please, always say what kernel and what rom you are using)

Quoted from OP:

"WARNING: 6.2b version only with mali r3p2+s3cfb.

If your ROM is mali v2 (old drivers) you have to update some libs (otherwise, black screen). You can do it with this zip (flash in recovery):

Yes root is enabled in Dev settings as: applications. I mean root work when I installed TB, apolo configurator, V4A, but with BBS xda edition and Root Explorer doesn't ask root access just says: seems your device doesn't have root....

Edited: I have just downloaded supersu and works flawless with it. BBS works root and root explorer too... Jummm I wonder what would be the problem.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CounterC:
Thank pedestre, that worked!

Quick question (sorry if it has already been asked in this big forum!):

Is it possible for you to make a setting to go as low as 100MHz and as high as 1400MHz (like in Dorimanx) ?

That would be awesome man...

Thanks again!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Shahan_mik3:
100mhz will drain more battery than 200mhz....and this kernel aims for stability and battery life so I don't think [MENTION=3445281]pedestre[/MENTION] would like to add OC feature..

Anyways 7b2 is smooth and stable on 8/1 beanstalk ROM.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CounterC:
Ok thanks man.

betab2 works well on CyanFox 2.0.2 but I still face 2 problems:

- Apolo configurator crashes when you apply too many tabs in a row

- I cannot get BLN to work. My control app gives error (see screenshot)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedestre:
Do this:

- Remove Apolo folder in /system (if folder exists)

- Go to Recovery

- Wipe Cache

- Flash Apolo

- Wipe cache again

- Reboot

Sometimes, initial scripts don't work and that is the cuase of these issues. Wiping cache and reflashing kernel usually solves it.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] la_malacoda:
Sorry for noob question, but is this kernel compatible with latest NeatRom based on KK? Which version should I flash?

Thank you pedestre btw, your kernel is amazing! :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CounterC:
This time it did not solve the BLN problem pedestre.

Is there anyway of installing the lib manual using a root explorer?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedestre:
OK, there you go:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19078986/lights.exynos4.so

Change the file in /system/lib/hw

Then change permissions (give the same than the old file) and reboot

I hope it solves it, but it is really strange that in your device didn't work the other solution
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Christiaan91:
Bln is also not working for me. Noticed when testing bln, at the uneven times, the lights will turn on when i wake up my phone again. The even times the test works normally, so the lights go on when i put my phone in sleep.

But when I have bln on and I receive a message, when my phone is sleeping, nothing happens.

Started over a couple of times and tried different things, but nothing seems to help.

I have this bln problem when I got to Android 4.4. Tried different roms and kernels, but still no solution.

If anybody has an idea to solve this for me, please let me know. Otherwise I probably go back to 4.3 and hope that it brings bln back.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] CounterC:
For me BLN worked perfectly on Gustavo_s kernel (only 7/12 and 03/01 version, the newer ones are not stable yet) and Dorimanx latest also no problems. I am on CyanFox 2.0.2

[MENTION=3445281]pedestre[/MENTION]: i have fixed the BLN issue by doing the following:

- deleting apolo folder

- deleting all the related files in system/lib/hw regarding lights.exynos4.so (after backuping my original off course). I found 3 related files (.BAK).

- reboot in recovery

- wipe cache

- flash beta2b

- wipe cache

- reboot

- pasted the new .so file you attached in system/lib/hw (so now there is only one lights.exynos4....)

- reboot in recovery

- wipe cache and dalvik

- reboot
[Galaxy S II Android Development] pedestre:
This is a different issue because your liblights are OK. I'm in kitkat right now and using bln without any issue.

Check if in your Android settings- screen theres something related to led notifications
[Galaxy S II Android Development] yavu:
What should I do to keep the apolo configurator settings after reboot?

Although I tick in each tab "save on boot" the settings are gone after a reboot.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] joaonuno:
i think you don't have to 'save at boot' in every tab.

you should 'clear boot data', make all your configurations and press 'temporal use'. then press 'save at boot'. maybe it didn't work because you didn't press the 'temporal use'.

hope this helps....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Christiaan91:
I can kick myself against the head.

Didn't know there was a setting in android causing me problems. Always thought that bln was a kernel setting.
