After removing external micro sd card, I didnt have any sva wakelock. All video files were on external sd card except for 2 very old video files. I played these 2 several times, then turned off the screen to wait for sva wakelock, but nothing :) I guess you were right. Its caused by corrupt video files, but i havent found a way to check which one is corrupt.

About UMS:

Still getting reboots every time I choose UMS and turn on USB storage. Logcats attached below. Last_kmsg only procudes an empty file. 'Enable logcat' is always turned on.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
U need sdcard0 for logs.

I need only last_kmsg for reboots.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] lace_hvc:
What do you mean by sdcard0? I always use sdcard 0 and logs are automatically saved on sdcard0. I dont use sdcard_only kernel. But as I said when creating last_kmsg with a2n app after UMS forced reboot, the last_kmsg.txt file is empty. 0 bytes.

I used checkdisk /f /r on my external sd card, fixed an issue in a mp3 file. So far no wakelock.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Right, because it's unmounted when using ums.

But u can take the last_kmsg from /proc/last_kmsg
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] lace_hvc:
Oh, I see.

Hello

I decided to follow all the steps of A2N, but at step zero, after flashing the Stock Rom, I get this error:

E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)

can't mount '/system (Invalid argument)

E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)

# MANUAL MODE #

-- Aapling Multi-CSC...

E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)

can't mount '/system (Invalid argument)

E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)

The Stock Rom I re-downloaded it, and I used an official Samsung cable, but it still gives the same error. :crying:

EDIT:

In the Recovery shows system mounted, I give it to reassemble it but it leaves an error: "Error mounting / system"
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
which rom u want to use ??

Which rom was the last working one ??
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] arroyo:
Funny thing ... The guy sitting next to me in work has Galaxy SII. Very nice phone, it was almost twice as expensive as Ace2 and much more powerful. We compared them today. Mine with ace2nutzer kernel 20150106 and his with latest stuff from XDA. Both on CM11 with very few apps installed.

And guess what ... one year ago SII was faster in Real Racing 3, faster in multitasking, overall faster. Right now, SII is a bit behind. It is just not so snappy overall. We checked games, copying same files, some benchmarks. I am amazed how much juice can be squeezed from old Nova Thor U8500 and how much potential have Mali400 with just one core.

DAMN GOOD JOB!
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] nikolas1274:
hi i am using latest version 070115 i have follow problems:

1. reboots over 1000Mhz (with chrono kernel i am stable at 1200MHz)

2. i am using it with Carbon KK and i have not option to enable KSM under performance, there is any other way to do it?

Thanks for your work
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] seanmalto:
Wow :D

Could you please tell me, which setting in ace2nutzer 20150106 kernel you set to get those all amazing performance?

at novathor settings, How you set the GPU, I/O, Power?

and then Min and Max CPU freq?

or you just set as default?

Thanks for your answer :D
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
It's definetely more than 1% in my case, something like 20% :) With 200 MHz as min freq, I can use as low varm as 0x5(vbbx=0xdb). But with 400 MHz it'll immediately cause reboot. That's why I still use 200 MHz as min freq.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] arroyo:
PARTITION Settings: optimized for f2fs

ROM - ace2nutzer CM from 20141118 f2fs (debloated a lot ... see further)

Kernel - tested with 20150106 f2fs, but 20150107 f2fs looks even better

Gapps - GApps Minimal X Edition, it is like PA Pico Gapps, but also debloats CM from unnecessary wallpaper stuff. Its impossible to install latest PA Gapps without debloating due lack of free space on SYSTEM.

Settings: SD SWAP in NovaThor App, Performance profile = Balanced, Min/Max Cpu frequency 500/1100 ... nothing more :D

+ 21 apps installed, but none of them affects performance

It really is kick ass combo. I know that I might get more power using some performance settings and OCing thing, but this is stable and fastest I have seen so far. It convinced be to update from CM 10.2 I was using till now.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] RootPegasus:
can I use this kernel for MIUI 4.4.4 ??
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] MarquesYOLO:
In latest kernel version I have some lag waking up device and entering pattern. Also I've had blackscreen bug once.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Blackscreen in latest version here on 07/01 or 06/01 ?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] MarquesYOLO:
These errors were in 07/01. I'm back to 06/01.

I've had a soft reboot when I tried to respond you. (on 06/01) :/
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Thanks, i'll fix this in next build (blackscreen and lags). I'll answer the other posts later.. I'm actually busy...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] bidug:
Hi, thanks for the release ace2nutzer,

about CPU OC,

I used 2014/20/12 kernel (ext4) for a few weeks before updating to 2015/01/07 (still ext4). I experienced many random reboot : after a few seconds at 1200MHz, minutes at 1150MHz, hours at 1100MHz; so I choosed to set max freq to 1000MHz during that time.

after updating to last version, I tried overclocking. The results :

- 1200MHz : random reboots after a few minutes

- 1150MHz : random reboots after 15 minutes approximately

- 1100MHz : seems stable so far (no random reboot for 3 hours, I managed to perform a stability test on Antutu with success)

did you change voltages in this version ?

thanks again for you work ace2nutzer

[edit] : got my first random reboot after a few hours, phone was idle, back to 1GHz... waiting for previous higher voltages ! ;D
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
@up

Not really.. just removed some CPU steps and adding a new one step.. but with same voltages...

@ stability on OC: this is nothing new actually.. i've some Bugs in CPU Table .. it's long time ago that i'm not changing anything for stabiltiy.. just have optmized other things.. ram managment zRam etc ... but now i've more time for improvements in battery life, CPU gov. anf GPU gov.. and also the stability.. give me time guys.. i'm old man (30 Years :D) and this Kernel will probably one of the best kernel for ace 2 around the World :)

About KSM: i suggest to u to read the Changelog(s)... i've removed KSM because it's not efficiently.

[MENTION=5083841]Peedy2495[/MENTION]

Can u pls tell me if the NFS is working right on the latest build here ?? - Thanks.

I think yes.. why not ?? Works on all Kit Kat Roms.. but 100% correctly only with latest from Rox or better the 18/11 from me.. with some bug fixes....

Very strange !! I believe it has nothing to do with Freq or Voltages.. it's just a PLL Problem since we use only one varm selection and no different OPP.. like OPP_MAX etc ... try to play with different PLLs .. for same step, same voltage and same freq.. u'll see with some combinations u'll stuck at Samsung Logo. ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Peedy2495:
Hi, ace2nutzer

After testing a while ... yes, NFS is working like a charm (using MountManager) :))

TNX for supporting!

And over all ... for this masterpiece of kernel ...

T H A N K Y O U !!!

Cheers ... Peedy
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
Power consumption mostly depends on squared voltage. Min stable voltage is different for 200 and 400 MHz(stable varm for vbbx=0xdb is about 0xf-0x11 in my case, when 200 MHz use just 0x05). P.s. why I should play with PLL etc? :D I'm pretty satisfied with my current settings, I just said, that varm can be lowered when use 200 MHz :) But of course, some combination of PLL cause death, because some of bits are used for different ARM_OPP states.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] seanmalto:
Thanks for your advice :D

but i just using that slim Gapps Minimal X Edition, and i dont use further version because i love file manager on CM11 (if u know what i mean). And also, i dont use Partition setting and swap memory also, my external sd card only old mid-end class, i dont want to get less performance later :) . I just want to use my phone on daily use, maybe GPU and CPU setting at the first page from [MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION] will be excellent :)

================================

[MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION] sorry about this stupid question, but i often get black screen when entering cwm recovery to flash latest kernel from [MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION] .

i used cwm recovery 6.0.2.8

i have to push vol up + home + power many times to entering cwm recovery.

any idea to slove this problem? thankyou.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
@up

Next Version will solve Blackscreen again... 1 V for 500Mhz is just too low.. but on my Phone i can run it without problems even with 1 V on 600Mhz !! Therefore i decided -100Mhz = 500Mhz .. to make it fail-safe .. but this attempt failed anyway :D

But this works for all: 1 V till 400Mhz :cowboy:

U all don't need to do smthg.. just wait for next build.. then CPU Voltages etc. are right. (but i don't said that reboots are solved on OC over 1Ghz.. this is another problem.. i'll solve it in the other next build) ;)

thanks for the infos. - Yes of course lower cpu freq can be more undervolted .. and it can run stable.. but my experience shows me that setting the min cpu freq (no matter wich freq) lower than 1,00 V, cause for some users blackscreen issue.

But well i'll try to reduce the min. cpu freq to a min. possible.. but anyway not lower than 1 V .. i remember u all the AVS Files.. the min Voltage is setted for ALL Phones not lower than 1,025 V .. i think there is a reason for this. That means it's just luck if it can run without Blackscreen under 1 V. ;)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] werindam:
is that normal default mali_boost_low is 499200kHz (real 500mhz?) ?

and mali_boost_high is 450mhz but that is ok.

I didn't change anything.

is that bug or what?

see screenshot:
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Sure that u don't mess anything ? hehe .. i checked here codina and codinap sources.. everything right..

Default min. is 400Mhz.. and max.. is 450Mhz...

By default Mali Auto Boost GPU is enabled by default .. u should only change the max. gpu freq.. the min should always not running over 400Mhz to avoid problems. Check your init.d scripts ... if all OK .. then reboot your Phone and check this File again pls.. very weird :eek:
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] werindam:
hmm.. i dont change anything.. i just flash kernel and go to sys/kernel/mali and open this file and I seen this..

I dont understand this but I just write that command from optimization file for mali_boost_high in terminal emulator and for mali_boost_low (400mhz) and now.. everything is right..
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
Thanks for your answer. But anyway that is weird that only s6d has these problems with blackscreen. I looked at these sources, and found something, that probably should be disabled (ESD_OPERATION). https://github.com/ChronoMonochrome/Chrono_Kernel/commit/d44a59aac218ff91c383b37fbf11e2e2b7a48c72

If you look at ws2401 sources, you'll notice, that it's disabled. None of another MCDE screens use ESD_OPERATION. Unfortunately, I still can't get report, if it's works.

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
okay, if u want to use the stock ROM, then flash first the 3-parted ROM [ME1]

then latest [MG2]

But if u want to update to the latest CM11 here, then u can skip Step0 and go to Step1.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] Kurajmo:
Back to Old Ace 2 with cm11 from ace2nutzer.

Damn thid phone is still good and very hard to destroy. Today save my ass again.

What is the newest cm11 build? I have

cm-11-20170323-UNOFFICIAL-FULL-codina.zip

Ace2nutzer any help?

And other question. Ace 2 support 64gb micro SD card?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] UnknØwn:
Thank you very much, solved.

I have some doubts, in several reboots in step 2 when restarting it asks me if I want to use root access or something similar, I gave it no, did I do it right?

Another thing, in step 2a I'm stopped, at the time of formatting in vfat I get this message: "could not format"
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
lol u should see in Thread Title or "latest" from FTP.

Don't know, but it should.

Yes, in cwm always say NO for ROOT.

So if u did a setup for "sdcard_only" then it's normal that u can't format sdcard0 as vfat.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
I use sdcard_only kernel, but I can format sdcard0 :confused:
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
it depends if sd0 is 1KB or 1024KB ...

format works with 1024KB.

latest layout has only 1KB for sd0.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
Ok... Maybe I am still using the old size :)

And for video recording issue... I am still testing for it...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] lace_hvc:
Any idea?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
[MENTION=6973536]bien2004[/MENTION] video rec works with the stock camera. Only such screencast apps doesn't work for now.

[MENTION=6710464]lace_hvc[/MENTION] really no idea .... very strange. I'll let u know how it goes for me.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
I mean stock screenrecording...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Where i can find this feature ?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
I use GravityBox and use stock way to record my screen... But it froze...
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
So it's NOT a standard feature from the ROM that's actually buggy or doesn't work !

Anyway i still consider this as an bug and i'll try to fix it up.

Those are just some left over bugs that are really hard to fix, keeping in mind that a lot of very good developers already worked on this ROM we're using, and wasn't able to fix, or they even didn't know at all that such bugs exists. .. it was "Team Canjica" with around 8 (or more) Developers, and now since they don't work anymore on this Project, i'm working almost alone on this Project.

But i've to admit that i've learned a lot of things from [MENTION=5695278]ChronoMonochrome[/MENTION] ... so big Thanks to him !! :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
I have a strange problem... After about 3 - 5 days on of my phone, "suspend_wakelock" begins to start and prevent my phone from deep sleeping. :confused:

BetterBatteryStats shows that it is a kernel wakelock, but I don't use any wakelock in A2N Kernel Control App.:rolleyes:

The only way to exit out of this problem is a reboot.

So this is the mose advisable custom rom to flash until today guys? Im trying to revive my old samsung ace2. I hope its a good dscion. Thank you and more power!
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
Or use stock ROM and custom kernel, but less peeformance and less battery life than a custom ROM with custom kernel that is heavily worked.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] jccaguisa:
okey. i'll try to upgrade my phone using this os. hope it works just fine. thank you. :)

Check ROM Settings and Kernel Control Settings (app) to customize and speed up your Phone :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] AkosPaha:
Hello [MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION]!

When is the new ROM + Kernel updated?:)

Because I have a force close application, will it still be time for issues fix?:confused:
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ace2nutzer:
Can't say actually, because still working on it.

I'm reworking the whole kernel config. ... (this time should improve even internet speed)

Then i'll recompile the ROM with a few changes. (should fix the sorting issue for photos)

That's one update ...

later i'll try to fix some hard rom bugs ....

That's the second update.

And finally i try to update the kernel base to something newer ... i.e. LK 3.16.x .. because it's a very stable release with longest Long-Term-Support. (At least for now)

That's then the third update :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] AkosPaha:
All right, thank you very much, not so important to the application I just asked you that there is no time for you to wait for the next ROM + Kernel update.And do a good job.:)

[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] AkosPaha:
Hello [MENTION=6973536]bien2004[/MENTION]!

There is no more normal, but REC Screen Recorder HD ( Your phone may freeze when you start the video recording!) is still there. And I'm sorry for the Play store's language I just do not want to change my language to English in the Play Store language any more English will be.

This:
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
Does it works on our phone?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] AkosPaha:
No, it works for me because I start the video freeze the my phone.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
Wow your bad English :/
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] AkosPaha:
Sorry

Edit: Does the application work for you or did not you try it?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
No, I haven't tested it :/

I did a test and found that ChronoKernel have more performance and more (lightly) battery life than our kernel.

These are the results after using ChronoKernel:

- Quicker time opening apps (2,4s with our kernel, 2,15s with ChronoKernel) even with the same CPU speed, CPU governor and I/O scheduler

- Battery life is nearly the same

... Wait! Wait for me viewing films then I will update the results :)
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] AkosPaha:
All right, this is the latest version of Chrono Kernel 5.4?

And do you hang the phone when you launch your screen recorder?
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
Yes, it is the lastest version.

And yes, when I start recording my phone freeze.

There is no way to record our screen now.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
There was one app to capture the phone screen that worked on our device, Screencast video recorder. The only issue, you, however, have with it, is that red and blue colours are swapped in the recorded video, it has to be manually fixed with, e.g. ffmpeg.

Thanks [MENTION=5840412]ace2nutzer[/MENTION].. for the JB xxnf2 and the kernel.. succes. RAM 627MB. :) :o

Now, Flashing this ROM 4.4.4 on my GT-i8160. I have downloaded the latest update and stop on step 2... it won't boot to cwm.

#sory for very bad english.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] :
Maybe bad LCD quality, so you got black screen during CWM starts.
[Galaxy Ace II Android Development] lace_hvc:
When I was still on TeamCanjica's CM11, I used scr-screen-recorder-pro-1.0.5 to record the screen. Worked without a problem. Dont know about A2N's ROM. Google it and try it out.

No, but u can use CurrentWidget App for such things.

I have a problem with the settings application at the storage section for internal storage and SD card data (apps, music, pictures, cached data and other files) is not counted in the phone , i wait a many minutes for it is written everywhere to calculate Can you do something? Or wait for the update and have I watched it do that too?

I send Screen recorder link:

sometimes this calculation hangs up ... then only a reboot helps.

anyway, it was always slow ... especially when u've many files in sdcard or /data partition is almost full.

On coming update this calculation is much faster ;)
