Can someone tell me if the kernel mod BLN (backlightnotifications) work also on the S2?
From what I've read we need a proper modified kernel to get the BLN Mod working on the SGS2. Somebody asked for a working BLN Mod in the original SGS1 section. Haven't seen anything that we could test though...
Yes I would like to see this (and donate) also.
Hi Guys,
Is there any update on this?
Really would like this to get BLN turned on with our SG2. Keep missing calls or messages when I leave the phone in another room.
Maybe chainfire can help with this and include it in the CF-ROOT kernels. I'm not into coding and ROM/Kernel building myself, but for those who are interested in finding out how to do this, here are some sources I found. Apparently, the mod is available for Gingerbread too:
https://github.com/neldar/backlightnotification/tree/master/kernel_patches
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=813389
Hopefully someone could make head or tails with it. Maybe I can pm chainfire and make a request.
Cheers
Same, a quick question though (a newbie one no doubt), would CM7 support this when it comes out?

Use siyah kernel 3.3.2 and use exTweaks app from playstore and activate BLN.

Edit: Now CM7 is stable, can we plz get custom kernels
Old:
Kernel Devs refrain from making custom kernels for CM7 because the CM team asked them not to, in the alpha stage of the development.
Today i asked Atinm if he could give the green light to the Devs, he replied:
atinm said:
Actually, we don't care if people run other kernels. We just say that we will not debug other people's kernels - so if you have bugs, you go to the kernel developer's threads. Same as on the other Galaxy phones. And there is more chance of your phone being unstable with each nightly when you are on a different kernel and we change the kernel.

I have maked one ...
I just saw it
Thnx
not quite the place to post this but party on
I had scaling issues with the stock kernel so i'm looking forward to this.
Great to see this.
I have 2questions.
1. Once we have these kernels will we be be able to flash files to enable Samsung stuff like Samsung dive, camera etc
2. Will new kernels be able to incorporate files from stock rom to fix the Bluetooth issue.
Thanks

CM 7.1 Stable has working bluetooth, and it wasn't a kernel issue, it was a driver source problem, Cyanogen either cracked it ahead of everyone else, or, got access to the missing source code, either way, winning like Charlie Sheen.
I have added my i9100 CyanogenMod 7.1 kernel with BLN support.
Details available here.

Correct, driver issues are not the same as the kernel.
I'd love to see some kernel supporting gpu oc-uv, it's a good feature for battery saving purposes imho.

You can use siyah kernel.
Sent from my GT-I9100
I am using siyhal latest kernal and simple and clean rom 2.4.3. How can I get BLN working on my phone? I dont mind if it involves a paid app but I do want to stick with the current rom I have. If I need to flash a new kernal that's fine though. Anyone know exactly what to do to get BLN working on my current rom?
it depends on kernel just find one which has BLN and search android market for BLN app (free&paid) you should be good to go
Do you know one that works with simple and clean 2.4.3?
noob cant you just read the BLN thread or search? https://market.android.com/details?...wsMSwxLDEsIm5lbGRhci5ibG4uY29udHJvbC5mcmVlIl0.

Hi everyone
I tried to search forum but i dunno if there exits already this thread but i will explain here my details
I have samsung galaxy s2 at&t sgh-i777 cyanogen mod 7
The problem is when i receiv as gift from my father (he did buy at china) the phone wasnt original stock but prolly the china did flash cm7 and some kernel and govern (i think maybe is active for now ondemand if i can understand).
But i cant know which kernel is current using? how i can to see this info?
Searching forum many use AOKP, Fluxxi, Shostock and so on but my phone how i could know which one is using this kernel at moment? is there an app that i can see all system there? I tried using with Z device test but the information android OS is not enough.
I have to flash cm9 soon but first i must know all the info before to start this.
For modems is easy to see i have to tap on info about device that ok...but i need a full information so will help me a lot.
Thank for support
Ummmm.... How about go to settings, scroll down and touch "about phone" then look under "Kernel version"

Ya thought that but is just number not name kernel if that help lol
How i would figured it?
kernel current anyway is 2.6.35.7 [email protected]#1
If was a kernel for CM7 ok but using Fluxxi for example what is then? is based still cyanogen? or Fluxxi is just a name rom?
This give me a bit confuse..
I saw some topic talking about kernel for siyah but i still dont understand if was for cmw or is just a kernel different way to work with this phone.
For this i need understand what he did chinese update my phone and what current kernel..
EDIT= i found on site for AT&T http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS2ATT/kernels
So this mean there are only 3 kernels compatible on this SGH-I777 isnt?
If that so then i have to know which one of this 3 kernels is current on my phone hmmm someone could give me a hint please?
you are using the kernel that COMES PACKAGED WITH CM7
i dont know why you would go to some other website looking for info, when all you have to do is open up the dev section here and READ.
there are more than 3 kernels available to you, but not many options if you are staying on CM7. if you are staying on CM7, just leave the kernel alone...
you dont really need to know anything more about what you currently have on your phone, because its simple. you are running CM7 with the kernel that was packaged with the rom. any rom you flash will have a kernel with it...
you see kernel names and are confused, i get that, but if you open the dev section and read, you will see threads marked as [KERNEL] or [ROM]....pretty simple to distinguish the 2.
for CWM, with Samsung devices, all custom kernels have cwM packaged in them, you dont need to do anything else but flash the rom after following the instructions in the first post on the rom thread.

Take a snapshot of your "About phones" before and after flashing any custom ROM and you see the difference.
For more kernel detail, bring up "CPU Spy" and take a snapshot before and after, and compare.
"CPU Spy" is an app.

all roms come packaged with a kernel so as long as you have CWM (you do because you are on CM7), then you can flash to CM9 without thinking about changing any kernels.
Hey i wonderf why not all apps on market are avaiable on this device sgh-i777?
I belive i got a email here message:

Do you use a ROM on your smartphone ? If yes, our app used an app

I didn't understand any of this lol. But are u trying to say an app developer told u that an app isn't compatible with your phone because of a custom ROM? If so that's crazy. And shouldn't affect anything. Normally when an app says its incompatible its because u changed the dpi. If u didn't, I would try clearing the data on Google framework and Google playstore.

Yes exactly that i try to say but what exactly mean dpi? I didn't know about it anyway and about clearing is there a thread about step to step for it? Thanks!

Yes. There are threads on both. Do a Google search for clearing google framework and do one for clearing playstore data. If u don't know what DPI is u probably didn't change it. DPI is the resolution size for the display on the phone. (How big or small things look on the phone) Stock DPI is 240 for our phones.

Hey guys! so I just updated my build 4 to build 5 I'm fixing up this phone for my girl and she fell in love with the looks of it.
Now my problem is that I"m trying to get BLN to work! but it says my kernel does not support it. I'm confused as the creator of this rom says he is using CM kernel (i take that's cynogenmod kernel? which does support it or well it did back in cm9 on my t-mo s2). Did I misunderstand this?
At any rate can some one tell me what kernel to install to make bln work? most of the ones I found on this website say they work for aokp aosp and cm9/cm10 but none for SuperNexus.
thank you for your time! and pardon the grammar.
i, too am looking for the answer... so far nothing

That'll be called stealing. because he made them mods on his own and you're stealing the mod and sticking it into the stock kernel which then essentially becomes siyah kernel again. Except it won't have the other goodies in it. Also you need his permission.
Another thing is you can switch of the siyah logo in stweaks. I do know how to make and write to kernels but this i cannot do. Plus i am an impatient man and don't like building kernels because it takes a lot of time and effort. So hats off to all kernel devs.
Basic answer from me is NO!
However i could be wrong..
