[Q] Entropy's Daily Driver or Siyah - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

I've flashed both now and used both. For normal usage, they both feel similar, however if you run an Antutu bench it clearly shows that Entropy's DD is much better. When running multiple apps the DD seems better as well. Both are able to OC/UV.
What's the benefit of one over the other? Has anyone else seen similar issue with performance being 'worse' with Siyah?

This should be in Q&A

oops, sorry...mods can move if they feel the need

Actually, most ROM comparison threads get closed. Only you can decide which is best for your device and usage. Specific questions about a particular ROM should be in Q&A or in that ROM's thread in Dev. Perhaps a little time reading the FAQ and doing some searches is in order, newbie.

I would post in the dev's thread...however I can't post in the dev's thread because I have less than 10 posts. Hence the question in general which should have gone into QA.
anyway, I did do some searching, compared features, but from the looks of it Siyah would be the faster of the two but my phone says different

Just post in the Off Topic forum to get your post count up so you can post in Dev. That's what most people do.

Ahhhh. thanks I'll take your advice.

Thread moved to Q&A.
Also, one kernel may perform better for you but not that person over there... and vice versa. Everyone really just needs to try them all out and see which one they like, thats going to be the best comparison and then you will get the most out of your phone.

Most balanced kernel?

I've been browsing the development threads for weeks now and the more I read the more confused I get regarding which Kernel to use on my GS2 (XXKG2). I guess like everybody I'd like the best combination between maximum speed, battery durability and safety.
At the moment I'm using stock with CPU Master.
Any thoughts?
Hm, tough thing to answer.
Chainfire root- The simplest one out there. Keeps the kernel close to Stock.
Ninphetamine- Supports BLN, Overclocking, Voltage Tweaks etc.
There are few others too, but as I haven't tried them won't comment. Any kernel can be used with Stock firmware. Can't say about Custom firmwares as I am not interested.
Regards.
[KERNEL] SpeedMod SGS2 [K1-T27 CWM4 CIFS ROOT]
Forget about Ninphetamine unless you want to overclock.
neophyte's mirage kernel is also good for batt life. it has finer tweak settings for voltages as compared to other kernels.
I've tried them all ninpo kernel and speedmod are two of the best. Currently using the tweaked speedmod by rage which allows undervolting. Ninpo kernel gives excellent standby idle rate.

I like speedmod because i dont bother about BLN or overclocking. (1.2 GHz not good enough for you? ) And i find the governer to be more aggressive and stable on speedmod. It spends more time on the lower frequencies too, saving more battery.
I'm trying the speedmod kernel but even though the benchmark is higher it doesn't seem as fast as the original XXKG2. For instance, I'm using "Photo Wall live wallpaper" and whenever I wake up the phone it takes like a second to refresh and load the photos...this didn't happen with XXKG2 (it was instantaneous).
What is a faster but still stable kernel alternative?
You could ask a 100 people and get 100 different answers.
The kernel that is best for you is the one you try and like the best. Just because one person likes a kernel doesn't mean you will as you've already found out.
Man up, do some downloading and find out for yourself.

How helpful. I think you might just have been Ghandi in a different life.
There is a reason why I've posted this in the Q&A instead of in the development section where I would probably get an answer like yours.
I don't take chances with a 600us$ phone and won't be installing all available kernels when I can get advice here first (the reason forums like this actually exists and the reason why I love them...well, most of the time).
Photos live wallpaper etc would be more of a rom thing, than a kernel thing.
As far as best or what have you kernel, there is no best, i find ninphetamine to be good, you may not, and this might just end up turning into another thread of generic repetition and general uselessness.
The best way is to try them, as the person above said.

I am using KG6 with ninpheghamine 2.1.3 and quick and giving me almost two days of battery life but again maybe other kernels out there are better. You can try other ones and compare.

Christ on a bike. You do understand what you are getting into when you start dicking around with your phone and custom kernels don't you? You don't take chances with a 600 dollar phone - I'm afraid you are doing, everytime you install any custom rom or custom kernel. However there is no more risk in installing one custom kernel than another custom kernel (when they are out of beta anyway), but what people prefer is massively subjective! Theres no such thing as "the most balanced kernel" because people have differing views on which kernel offers this for them.
If your not sure about a kernel why not read the thread for that kernel and see what feedback its got. If you open a thread like this you'll get a ton of differing answers as you've seen already and its not going to keep you happy.
Sorry if you don't find my advice helpful, but I've managed to find the ROM I like and the kernel I like by TRYING them. Neither of which have been mentioned in this thread by the way, but I'm not going to say its best for you, because you likely use your phone for different scenarios than me.
If your going to step into the brave world of custom kernels, rooting, roms, themes, mods etc the best thing you can do - and I say this genuinely, and meaning to be helpful - is to read up on said things and try the ones you like the sound of and you trust to be safe.

Couldn't this be GPU related? Do you think apps like Chainfire3D or Overclocking free (GPU/CPU) would fix it?

ROMs poll

I've been on unnamed for a while and cognition before that. I came from Cognition on the Captivate, so it's obvious I prefer a mostly stock ROM. Both of these ROMs are no longer supported though, so gathering opinions on where to go. If anyone suggests something please say why. Thanks
ShoStock is still getting updates.
My favorite is villainrom 3.0 hellraised with the latest version of the siyah kernel
CyanogenMod is pretty nice, its my first non-stock rom. The only thing I miss is the stock Samsung alarm clock. Its worth a try for a day or two at least.

These kinds of thread are really a gray area for us.
On one hand, there is nothing wrong wanting to get user's opinions. For somebody who is unsure, getting experience from others about what is good and what is bad can be really useful.
On the other hand, you can't just ask "What is the best". For one, since there are different versions of android builds, no one can just say what the "best" is. For some people, the best can be the most bleeding edge build even with broken functionality. For others, they may value stability the most; and for even more, they may want a build with tons of extra features.
So, with that said - OP: i welcome you to rephrase your question, preferably about some specific ROMs that you might have in mind, as well as what your needs are. Otherwise, i will close this down per board rules..
If you know how to flash roms and you are comfortable with it then just try them. Thats the best advice any of us can really give you. Im on sensation rom and that is still alive and a great rom, but its really up to you. ShoStock is your best bet to stay stock though.
Every quit your *****in'
ANYWAY
I've stuck with ICScrewD and Siyah for the past several months keeping up with the updates and I've been pretty pleased with my battery life and performance. I also switch to Entropy's DD occasionally. It's all stable
Try some various ones out man. Like poster above said if you feel comfortable flashing then it can become trial and error. You'll eventually find the one that suits you

But we already have a thread with everyone posting what version of Android and what rom they are using. Why do we need another?
SHOstock, is pretty fast and stable, and it still getting updates,, CM7 is awesome but they never fix the issue with the video codecs for our phone so if you have a lot of videos taken with your stock OS you will have to delete those from you SD card.

In the ops defense, the other one appears to be more based on Android version,, however you are correct that people go on to discuss the actual ROM they're running.

I apologize if I wasn't clear when I said "I prefer a stock experience". I use BT extensively in my car, so I was looking for a MOSTLY stock ROM with finctionality being a priority, would prefer to keep TW as well. Basically, something along the lines of COGNITION or UNNAMED, but, a ROM that keeps getting updates. I wasn't trying to cause problems, but, I really don't feel like going through the 5000 ROMS for this phone; I didn't think asking other users opinions was that bad. I did post in the GENERAL section. I hope that clears it up, if not, delete if you must.

[Q] ROM/Kernel suggestions

Hi all, I have a Galaxy Nexus which has been rooted and running a custom ROM/Kernel and my girlfriend has just got a Galaxy S II. I will be rooting her phone and am looking for suggestions for which ROMs and kernels to use!
If possible a gingerbread suggestion and ICS suggestion would both be great and kernels for either.
She is really looking for better battery life so if you could bear that in mind when making a suggestion, that would be great!
So far I have found Resurrection remix ROM as that seems quite popular...
Thanks in advance!
There is no such thing as the "best rom or kernel for battery life you use your phone differently to everyone else and your phone came out of the factory slightly differently to everyone else's.
A rom or kernel that runs well for me might not run well for you.
I suggest you go the development sections of the forum & read the first few pages and the the last 10-20 pages of the particular threads devoted to different roms & kernels. That way you will get an idea of the features/pluses/minuses of each rom & kernel, and also see other users' experiences with that rom or kernel
Then you can test different roms & kernels for yourself to find one that works best for you.

I think you may have mis-read my OP. I only stated that I was looking for *better* battery life as I already know that each phone/battery is different.
I have already looked through the first few pages and like I said I found the Resurrection remix to be quite popular but I was also looking for any other suggestions as usually there will be only a handful of ROMs that the majority of people use because of their high quality etc.
The problem with going through testing different ROM/Kernel combinations is that (as stated before) the phone is not mine, it belongs to my girlfriend, so I will be unable to be there for most of the time that the phone is being used and if there are instabilities, I will not be able to see it.
This is the 2nd reason of why I made this topic, from getting suggestions, it will show the more popular ROMs/Kernels and also narrow down the search greatly.

You haven't actually provided any input here have you. The op has already said hes look at some threads and he just wants some input from others now?
Also, as you can see he said it is for his GF. I seriously doubt she is going to want him to test different ROM's and Kernels for her...
Anyway OP, i suggest Ressurection rom remix too, my friend has an S2 and speaks highly off it./
No idea about kernels though.
Really ?
And you obviously know that there is pretty much zero tolerance for these threads in SGS2 Q&A, don't you ?
Thought not.
And that's the entire sum of your contribution is it ?

well the kernel is Stock XXLPJ nad the base band is XXLPQ in Ver1.0 of ressurection rom can also see the same in my sig i am using his roms right from the day he started with ICS and the improvement in each ver is amazing
and ver1.0 is a very stable and batt friendly close to stock ICS ver

I understand your situation is slightly different from the other ROM suggestion threads (we have closed/deleted literally hundreds). My suggestion for you would to be to check this thread that we have allowed

And to read the various kernel and ROM threads themselves. ALL of them will have users posting their experiences with battery life and stability. The information is there.

[Q] Understanding kernels: features, changelogs, etc.

I apologize in advance if this has been covered somewhere, some quick XDA and google searches returned nothing, and the stickies don't seem to cover it either.
I stayed completely stock until ICS roms started being released, and all I currently have is a working knowledge of how to go about safely rooting and flashing ROMs, kernels, and modems (obtained by reading stickies). With that in mind, can anyone explain what do all the features associated with these new ICS kernels mean? I read the changelogs and everything goes over my head. Even the changelogs for the Gingerbread kernels are beyond me.
If there is a pre-existing thread/post where I can find this information, kindly direct me and I'll read it (and probably come back with more questions). Otherwise, please help a noob understand what it all means, so that I can make an informed decision about which kernel I want to flash.
....Yeah, I'm kinda asking to be spoonfed. Sorry
Well I'll answer what I can, I am by no means an expert.
The Changelogs for a Kernel contain a list of what was changed from one version to the next. Sometimes they are simple [-added code to stop phone from blowing up], sometimes more complex [-merged something I don't understand into something else I don't understand]. The rule of thumb I use for Kernels is what gives the best performance for the battery/stability?
Siyah's Kernels have a unique dual boot option, are very stable and give great battery life, with good performance.
The NEAK Kernel, has outstanding performance, great battery life and seems rock solid.
Entropy's Kernels give good performance, great battery life, and are bulletproof in stability.
As it's so easy to change from one Kernel to another, play with them. If you don't like one, feel free to change to another. (just make sure you use a Kernel cleaner script before doing so).
As for a good post to read, XDA is filled with them, but I cannot think of an 'all in one' post to go read. What I know I have gleaned over spending hours reading, every day.
Modems are similar, in that some work better in some area's than others. Navigate with your phone's browser to www.speakeasy.net/speedtest and test them. There is even a post here with maps that give an idea of what Modem works best in a given location.
If you follow the instructions, flashing Kernels/Modems on this phone is crazy easy and little risk. Sorry I cannot point you to an all in one post though. Perhaps some of the other guys here can link something more authoritative than what I have posted.

Thanks for your help, I sincerely appreciate it
To be honest though, I kind of already knew most of what you posted I do know what a changelog actually is. I know that modems are location dependent and it's easy to flash between multiple ones (KH7 seems to work best for me). I knew that Siyah offers dual-booting, don't *really know* what Neak offers (but the thread and changelog seem to indicate high stability), and I know that of course, Entropy is freaking bulletproof (which is why I use his ). I guess I didn't truly know kernels are phone-dependent, but I had a sense given what I've heard about people having varying results with OC/UV.
Which brings me to my next point. I have a rough idea of what overclocking is, not so much with undervolting, but lucky for me that doesn't interest me. What does intrigue me and what I would like to know about are some of the other features that kernels can implement. Examples are:
-Init.d Support: What is this and what does it do?
-Entropy's Legacy Gingerbread hotplug code (including all tuning features from the final GB DD release): same questions
-Governors: Ondemand, LulzactiveV2(default), Performance, Conservative (module), Lazy (module). What's a governor?
-Schedulers: BFQv3-R2, Noop, SIO, VR (default). What's a scheduler? How's it different from a governor?
-Support for Voodoo Louder! is there a thread on this?
-CIFS, FUSE, CUSE Support (modules) more modules? are they the same as governors?
-Many other similar questions
Sorry for the bombard of questions, but I hope this thread eventually will prove useful to other noobs like myself.
-Init.d Support: What is this and what does it do? Read http://www.ghacks.net/2009/04/04/get-to-know-linux-the-etcinitd-directory/
-Entropy's Legacy Gingerbread hotplug code (including all tuning features from the final GB DD release): same questions - Hot plugging answers can be found in the post below. It's got to do with turning on the 2nd processor core.
-Governors: Ondemand, LulzactiveV2(default), Performance, Conservative (module), Lazy (module). What's a governor?
Everything you ever wanted to know about Kernels can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1369817
-Schedulers: BFQv3-R2, Noop, SIO, VR (default). What's a scheduler? How's it different from a governor? See link above
-Support for Voodoo Louder! is there a thread on this? - No clue, I'm old, to me Voodoo is a video card made my 3DFX.
-CIFS, FUSE, CUSE Support (modules) more modules? are they the same as governors? - See post above.
See if that answers your questions.
For some interesting reading, read the 2ndinit post found here, http://cvpcs.org/blog/2011-06-14/2nd-init._what_it_is_and_how_it_works

This is exactly what I was looking for! I think I may have come across it before, but I probably ignored it since I didn't think there would be so many kernel options for our phone (that was before ICS source drop). The OP of that thread has another kernel related thread in his signature, dedicated to how ICS kernels are different, too.
I find it really useful knowledge. Perhaps this should be added to the sticky of reference links? What do you guys think, especially Red5 (if you see this)?
Anyway, THANK YOU WINK!

There's hardly anyone reading this forum. They have moved on to other phones. But read the currently and recently active threads in the development forum to see what's available, and get clues as to what is good.

Also i read the cyanide thread and looks pretty good what do you think its better i want the opinion of a that has more knowledge in this than me
Do you want Touchwiz or AOSP? If you want touchwiz, then I would recommend either Cooked or SHOstock3, as either one of those is stable. I'm not familiar with AOSP having barely ever used it, so I can't make any suggestions there. Read the threads, as I suggested, and maybe post your questions in those threads.
