[Q] No STweaks app after flashing SiyahKernel S2-v4.1.5 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
After flashing SiyahKernel S2-v4.1.5 on stock ICS 4.0.4, there is no STweaks app in applications on my s2. I know it should be installed automatically after flashing Syiah, but it's not. What should I do to fix it?

STweaks is for Siyah kernel for Galaxy S3 only.
Download Extweaks which is for Siyah for Galaxy S2

What a pity, I hoped for STweaks audio options... Thank you for clarification.

Some Audio minimal headset sound options are also found in Extweaks, but not as extensive as in STweaks.
This is due to limitation of Galaxy S2 audio chip and not with Extweaks. If you use Extweaks for Galaxy S3, all the audio options will also be there simply because, Galaxy S3 audio chip supports them.

Hi, I flashed Siyah kernel v4.1.5 today and my back cover gets warm up more than usual. What do I do? I am on stock 4.0.4 (SAMSUNG S2 GT-I9100)

I'm trying to find a guide on exactly how to use STweaks for S2 or some documentation. any one know where i can find it\them ?
According to play store info its for both the S2 & S3 and will work on others... I'm guessing when Jokesy posted i was only for the S3.
Peace

It was the galaxysii_oc_v1 found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075061
Why don't you try Siyah Kernel?
Yes, it enables overclocking, but it's full of other features too!

[Q] Haptic Feedback not working after waking from sleep/standby mode

Hi,
I rooted my phone recently and flashed the latest Siyah Kernel* on it and installed the complementing ExTweaks app. I hadn't played with the settings on ExTweaks, but I've noticed my haptic feedback has gone a bit funny and stopped working. It would be fine when I reboot it, but when I put it into standby/sleep mode and wake it up it stops working. I can change the intensity of the vibrations using ExTweaks, which would get it to work but if I rewake it, it would stop again. So I can gather that it's a software issue rather than hardware. I've tried getting rid of ExTweaks and rebooting the phone but the problem still persists.
Anything (other than flashing the stock ROM) I can do to make it work again?
Thanks.
* (I tried to flash a stock kernel after flashing CF-Root but that bricked my phone so I had to use a microUSB jig to enter download mode, from where I flashed Siyah to get it up and running again. I lost no data and don't know if it's relevant but I thought I'd put this in anyway.)

Thanks for your reply. No I have never performed a factory reset, phone originally had GB, which was upgraded to 4.0 and then 4.0.4 without any resets along the way.

Flashed the stock kernel and that seems to have fixed the problem. Still have root access but no Siyah. Oh well, no need for Siyah... I don't plan on using an unofficial ROM anytime soon.
Thanks for your help Jokesy.

[Q] S2 Reboot while setting CPU Frequency in SetCPU

Hi all, I recently purchased SetCPU and tried a couple of profile settings and tuning my CPU Frequency. However whenever I tuned those frequencies, my phone will freeze and reboot.
Example of such case are 200min - 1200max I tune it to 200min - 800max and it freeze and reboot.
I rooted my phone and using stock rom and stock kernel. Already given SuperUser to SetCPU....
I hope any kind souls here will bring some light to my problem here. Thanks!

I read about it but prior to that, I flashed a custom Kernel just to gain root access. However after that, my phone was in the blank screen state after that. Even tried the clear cache setting. It didn't work, hence I was forced to flash back the stock Kernel and yet finding myself still retaining the root access...
If the blank screen didn't occur, I might try other kernel...

CF-Root is basically a stock kernel with root capabilities.
The kernels Sun90 recommended support OC/UC. so just flash any of them.
Good luck

Don't mind trying. Was initially intended to flash CM9 but I gotten lazy of flashing and customized my phone... If flashing those kernels that Sun90 recommended my phone won't went blank screen after that. I might try.
Updated: I took my courage to flash Siyah Kernel and now it works! Playing around with the settings to get better battery performances! Thanks!

[Q] Cant turn off WIFI and Mobile Data

I'm running CYANOGENMOD 9 ICS ROM with Siyah kernel.
Running perfectly from a month but now suddenly i cannot turn off Wifi and Mobile data.
If this problem can't be solved then i'll install CYANOGENMOD 10 Jelly Bean Rom.
Is there anyway I can save game progress??

wifi is normally a kernel issue. so if you didn't change your kernel recently it may be you have an app that simply reactivates wifi/mobile data (tasker, battery savers, juice defender, network switcher, locale....)
a simple check could be to do a nandroid and then to factory reset. it it helps it was a setting/app if it remains it's the kernel/rom.
then you can either restore your nand or move to another ROM
game progress etc are saved normally with titanium or other root backup aps
How to check Nandroid? By reset u mean in settings or from recovery mode?
And is the CM10 Stable?

First flash another kernel.
If you are using battery saver apps, or profile scheduler then uninstall them.

Not checking nandroid but doing one, use backup in recovery.
For reset it doesn't matter, I'd prefer recovery

[Q] Increase max volume? (Rooted S2 with JB)

Hello, I am a little new and confused with all those "roms", "kernels", but currently, I don't really care. Is there a way to increase max music volume (headphones) on my rooted galaxy s2 (jelly bean)? I know there were topics like this but most of them are outdated, so it's really hard to find it now..
Syiah and dorimanx kernels have options in stweaks for increasing volume

So, just in case i don't destroy my phone: I should just download newest Dorimanx version (zip) and install it in CWM recovery mode? I have rooted my phone using this tutorial: galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s2-gt-i9100-jelly-bean-android-4-1-14-1-2/ (add http before link)

Not simply the newest kernel, but download the newest supported kernel for ur rom. Read the Dorimanx thread carefully before choosing a kernel.

Voodoo Louder is obsolete with the kernel-side volume increase available on Siyah/Siyah source kernels.
