Same here..

Did any of you got the chance to get a last kmsg?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] borkins:
Don't know how exactly.

I can't use ADB, because of USB connection problems.

Maybe, if I get in recovery, after the loop and then to copy/paste the log somewhere.

I'll try that in the name of our 3 ACE2 devices :)

Edit:

Guys, this time it booted. :)

Before, I said that i wiped everything, but I didn't wipe the /data ( and maybe /system) partitions only.

Before 4 days i had filesystem corruptions, and needed to format /system, /data, /cache partitions.

Maybe that resolve the problem, but what is the reason for it - I don't know.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
Sorry guys, I have to abandon android development, hopefully not forever. Cause is problems with health. Will not see for a long time.

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] borkins:
Don't feel sorry for us. You made so much amazing things here! Before 2 years I only dreamed about them.

Sad to hear, that is caused by healthy problems. :(

Take care for your health, and get well soon Chrono!

I don't know what's exactly to say, but you're doing for this device development even more than we can imaging.

Member, life is only one and spent it like you want, not like you should.

If this is really something serious with your health, I hope no, wish you all the best and your family, everything must be fine with you.

Hope you'll post something after this for community here. Anyway good luck.

Hi, i've some trouble.

My problem is stuck at CM logo when booting.

I've been trying to wipe cache and dalvik cache, but still stuck at there.

is this kernel problem? i use latest from [MENTION=235339]chrono[/MENTION]

maybe anyone can help?

here is my last_kmsg

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:
According to this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61221294&postcount=3147

it might be cause of a filesysem corruption. Have you tried to do a clean installation (format data, system and cache)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] seanmalto:
OMG.

So i have to do full backup first, right?

Full wipe, then reinstall CM11 > gapps > repart > kernel > restore

is that correct?

Or i have to Back to GB first?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] xo.en:
Try to flash rom you are using, AGAIN, then flash kernel you want to, to try fixing bootloop.

I experienced it many times, usually such method helps.

Other thing is, why this is happening.

(wipe dalvik+cache, of course, too).
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] seanmalto:
Thanks for your help.

But another problem appear, backup prosses is stoped.

the error message is "could not make .img file when backup /data".

Not about space problem.

why the hell this happen? hahaha.

Last year, yes i could do a fresh install without backup anything. But for now, i have a lot of important data, that impossible to delete.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] xo.en:
..but do you have enough space for backup(even if you do and you have error try to make backup to other sdcard)?

If so, you may do this: flash kernel, make reboot, and go into recovery immediately after.

Then flash rom you are using, flash kernel, and make reboot.

You know, sometimes it is tricky, but remember - you will not lose your data by flashing rom(ONE you are using), or kernel.

I agree, there are scary situations sometimes, but i had no case, that i lost data...until you make wipe.

But - you still may need backup made with working setup BEFORE you make experiments.

Then...you may try anything.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] seanmalto:
Oh yes i understand right now.

I tought i should do a full wipe before :D

thankyou, i'll tr this trick :D
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] xo.en:
erm, wipe is needed if you change roms, not kernels..reflashing same rom does not need wipe(i mean full wipe). Flashing kernel requires wipe cache/dalvik only.

Mmph, btw - sometimes after kernel/rom experiments it may happen, that restored backup WILL not work(bootloop) - if so, reflashing rom that was used while taking backup, and flashing adequate kernel is needed AFTER you restore backup(+again - wipe dalvik/cache)...

This is weird, and it started happening with latest chrono kernels, i have never seen such weirdness before, tbh.

Such thing is happening especially when we are trying to check 5.1.x roms while we have 4.4.x/4.3.x backup...weird.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
oh..... that's very sad to read that :( I hope u'll bring back your healthy soon .. we all already missing u :crying:

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
Thanks for your attention, guys. Though I said that abandon development for a while, it's not easy to refuse hobby.

I hope that what I have said before was is somewhat exaggerated. All fault is my inactive lifestyle and irregular order of day(yep, I'm student and 20 years old), as a consequence - different diseases of the digestive tract (so for me there are still remains not the most pleasant moments of treatment).

but I was not too honest with myself - even abandoning it, change the way of life is not so easy. Why am I writing this here? probably just wanted to express these thoughts.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:

Guys, does anyone still keep chrono's kernel for odin version with ext4 partition? I checked in FTP, and I couldn't find it, it probably is in the devhost.

Edit:

Nevermind, I previously forgot that recovery is still accessible even with wrong partition type. Now I've flashed the ext4 version.

Chrono welcome back and be well

With latest kernel after some days of use i see and while phone was idle all night that in the morning was unusable, just blackscreen and i have to reboot it to work. I don't know it it happening with all 2.24.x builds so can someone provide with links of previous builds?

I can try to help a bit till Chrono is fully recovered back.. so @ Chrono pls lean back ! U're not alone !! ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Bastiary:
I tried ext4 version
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Rox:
For fixing problems to boot into recovery from extended menu on stock roms you have to modify init files to load modules from /system/lib/modules instead of /lib

check "update modules insmod procces" commits here : https://github.com/Roxsel/RoXSel-kernel/commits/3.0.96

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
For me it doesn't work too. Maybe it needs to change fstab file, but I do not know exactly how to change the line that mounts sdcard.

Btw, can anybody upload kernels for i8160p for stock/ cm 10.2/ cm11 ? Thx in advance. I will try again to build a kernel for Codina p.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] rol525:
You can build it for Android 4.2.2?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
In the nearest time I want to try any of the 4.2.2 ROMS. I do not know when it will be, but I'll add it to my todo list :)

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Asus-Tek:
When I install ext4 kernel i must format data an cache? :confused:
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
You have to wipe cache, if you have already installed ext4 version, or format data and cache to ext4, if you have installed f2fs version.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Asus-Tek:
Okey but when I flashed kernel from CWM and reboot, no wipe and format (ext4) will be works?

I must wipe cache?

Is anyone else having issues flashing Chrono Kernel 2.24.7? Is says its flashed, but when it starts back up, it's still the old kernel.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:
Do you mean the build version? Afaik, the build version wasn't updated (still 2.24.6), but the build date is different.

Please - Post only in one thread. Thank you.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] oscar.davidson:
I didn't change it to f2fs. I did this, now I'm stuck in boot loop. Or I can't run it properly when it starts, the data is all missing. It says extract tar fork error 255.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] xo.en:
... because its version NUMBER is not updated, kernel is.

And it is good kernel, imho(tested with 4.3.x'es, 4.4.x'es, f lollipop).

Had ZERO issues so far.

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:
I'm not sure what you did wrong there, but ChronoMonochrome's kernel is quite universal in that it doesn't really matter what the partition type is, it would still recognize it. You did change f2fs only on system, data and cache partition, right??

I do quite agree with you. Anyway, would you mind sharing your battery drain on the latest build??
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] xo.en:
I think, that last version(or rom I am using recently) drains battery more, than older versions. Idle takes more, too.

But again, I switched from liquid to vanir recently...maybe it is matter of rom...

Ok, idle is what is troubling, I fell asleep with mp3 player on lately and damn thing worked for 6 hrs playing(viper+maxxaudio together) - I lost few percents of energy...

So, idle is weird there, but still - I am not sure.

Usually i am under 2% per 8 hrs while device is idle, here is more.

Well, i removed some weird tweaks lately because of sound loss...maybe there is a reason..

Shaqman89, concluding - all i know is i am not sure. There's bigger drain...I think.

But you know, i lost 23% today, i think i skip thinking about it....i am tired searching for miracles for two years already.

It is ok now..ok enough.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] oscar.davidson:
Yup, only changed them. And now strange enough, my back ups are there when I use the file manager. But are not there when I go to re restore menu.

I'm really stuck here.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:
Lol. Sorry to say, but you do sound old.

Well, anyway I was just trying to get the best configuration I had, something like 28hrs on a full charge. Nowhere near your usage, but I kinda need it when I'm gonna travel home later :D

I do think the latest does have a bit more drain, though with it I could still achieve 1.6%/hrs on idle, quite enough for now, though not the best I've experienced (1% for the whole night).

One more thing, do you notice that chrono's kernel is quite laggy when switching beteen networks (eg: wifi and data). Too bad this happens quite a lot in my country here, and each time, it becomes so laggy. Originally I thought this was because of Llama, but strangely it didn't happened as much when I use ace's kernel

---------- Post added at 02:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------

What backup do you mean there?

Are you talking about cwm backups?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] xo.en:
What is interesting - modified chronokernel used in vanir seems to have definitely better battery usage than standalone one(nice idle for sure).

I would like to have it as standalone too, but it may be hard to extract and repack(although possible, i think).

On the other hand some drain may be related to viper4android+maxxaudio used together in my case.

Btw - most ennerving thing with a2 is that 95% weirdness(that fast drop from 100% to 95%).

On the other side I am happy, that 2y.o. battery doesn't seem to show any aging, yet.

What's is your governor/scheduler setting?

Ah, i forgot, you could use vm/lmk tweaking to obtain longer battery time(i'll pm you with init.d files you may want to check).

It may sound strange, but seems to work, especially dirty_background and dirty_writeback, big values really helps here.

Another thing you can do is using "disable service" app to turn some services off - you do not even know how many useless things are on(billing services, tracking services, campaigntracking services, etc)...

Undervolting is worth to try - tbh i have no idea, if it is working, but i am using it for any cpufrequency machine is using(and uv for gpu, too).

And one more thing - I am using 2g ONLY.

I do not know about slow network switching, tbh i never experienced it, or I have different definition of "slow" :).

Stil - you may want to try different tcp algorithm's(by chronokernelsettings).

p.s.

Damn, i lost c.a. 1% tonight in idle :). Vanir's kernel, 800mhzcpu, 300/480mhz gpu, cpu/gpu uv, interactive/tripndroid, dynamic fsync, ape_opp and ddr_opp to 25....thing unobtainable with standalone chronokernel.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] mkaluza:
Hi!

Then maybe it's not the kernel, but the rom?

Can you pm me as well? Or better - post it somewhere (here in

, pastebin, github) so others can benefit as well? As for dirty_* - it's logical - if you don't write to flash so often, you don't use battery.

I use it too - it has to work - it's physics...

Also higher ape/ddr opp suck quite a lot of current.

Mine uses around 0,25%/h when doing nothing and even less with flight mode on (at night) - but that's Vanir (and partially kernel as well, but mostly it's the rom).
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] strangebro:
i found this weird, but with this lastest kernel i found that bluetooth tethering is not working, file transfer is working though
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] xo.en:
Nope - Vanir with standalone chronokernel flashed drains more than with kernel used there as default.

Well..it is there already:

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
This is the Problem..:

And u had MG2 Stock ROM installed before .. and now at the same time NB1 Modem ???

http://samsung-updates.com/details/34177/Galaxy_Ace_2/GT-I8160/ONE/I8160XXNF2.html
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
Only reasonable explanation I can imagine is that R2.24.7 is kinda "over-optimized"... On vanir kernel I have resetted all build optimizations to standard ones until I make sure anything over it makes any sense.

It should be not difficult to extract kernel from that ROM - kernel installator is almost same as in standalone version. I even didn't thought it will have better battery life and because vanir's r3.0 is more less experimental version, so I wasn't thinking about releasing "standalone" kernel version. Luckily, these days I can get home and release it :)

That's odd... I had problems with suspend backoff wakelock almost year ago, but unfortunately, even google didn't gave me solution. Restoring CWM backup(which was done before encountering issue) helped me.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] xo.en:
All i can say: Vanir's kernel behaves better, than 2.24.7.

It can use chronokernelsettings, and perfctrl...maybe, this is it?

Look, i better go now.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] shaqman89:
Damn, I envy your battery drain. That's around 2% a night.

Anyway, would you mind sharing how much you undervolted yours? I never could get it working as expected.

Dynamic for governor, and the scheduled is tripndroid/fiops

Thanks this did improve battery drain. In the end I decided that the default lmk is already Okay for my multitasking need, but the vm configuration did wonder. :D

Yeah, I've also done this. Blocked necessary permission, and disabled unnecessary services, so I was sure it was either ROM or kernel config.

True to this. I've been using it for a month now, and that one really did help especially when of I'm not using it just for instant messages.

I did, once. But to my understanding, this only affects the network speed, right? My issue is that it somehow lags the phone when switching between networks (WiFi/data)

Similar configuration here. Difference is no uv, 1150 cpu, 400/480 gpu, dynamic/tripndroid.

I think I better try lower gpu frequency too. :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
R3.0

Ok, found time to compile and upload new build.

R3.0

reworked genfstab - now it's more friendly for non-standard fstab's, e.g. with swapped sdcards or those ones which used for dualboot

universality is back - one package for codina/codinap

f2fs update (thanks to XperiaSTE team)
