[Q] Siyah kernel profiles? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Im using the latest siyah kernel 7.9 i believe with the latest aokp 4.2.1 rom, and everytime i try to select the performance profile my phone will freeze at some point while booting up. Ive also tried changing to the performance and the extreme performance profiles via Stweaks and when i do my phone freezes immediately afterwards. Ive tried all the usual trouble shooting stuff reinstalled the kernel wipe cache, dalvik etc, same results. Anyone else have this issue? Any advice for a solution would be appreciated. Thanks.

I haven't tried those profiles, but as they are high performance, perhaps they include over clocking? If so, have you run stable over clocked on that ROM previously? Of not, then that might be the issue. Or maybe your phone just doesn't like the governor/scheduler combo in that profile. I get lockups with Pegasus/sio all the time... never worked on my phone no matter what ROM or kernel.

re:
yea my phones always been stable overclocking up to 1400mhz on every rom i've tried. its once i get to 1500mhz is when my phone starts to freeze which is disappointing cuz my last sghi777 s2 was always stable up to 1600mhz. just interested in trying these profiles, still looking for a solution.

I'm going to start with the obvious, did you follow the instructions to reboot into recovery after flashing the kernel before rebooting into the rom and reset the profiles?? It is known to cause havoc with profiles if you don't reset them prior to the first boot. Secondly, any other performance control apps will interfere with stweaks, make sure you don't have aokp's performance control settings set up for set on boot. I personally had issues running siyah with aokp but others have not, for testing purposes you may try another rom temporarily.

yea i followed the directions of the op exactly, i think ive figured out what my problem is now. the max frequency in the performance profile setting is 1500mhz, and my device isnt stable at 1500mhz. although my device doesnt freeze instantly when set at 1500. I'm thinking that is probably part of the problem.

Very likely, some phones don't like certain frequencies

[Q] How to overclock the thunderbolt

Hey guys Im currently running DroidTh3ory SHIFTS3NS3 ROM for HTC Thunderbolt. So my question is how do i overclock my phone i heard people overclocking their phone to 1.4ghz and its running smoothly but im stuck on where to go and how do i do it. So any links showing step by step to overclocking would be helpful
If the ROM includes an overclockable kernel with OC slots then it can be set with SetCPU, terminal, or scripts.

If the ROM doesn't include a kernel with OC slots, you can flash another kernel via recovery.

Ok so i flashed the rom i said i flashed and i dont see anything about CPU or tweaking anything, i tried to flash a kernal from the kernal manager in the market but as it was booting up it kept stopping loading stopping loading so i since it was goin pass the loading process i took my battery out went into the recovery and gonna try a different one, any kernal suggestion u think i should flash if you have a direct link would be helpful
Ok I was able to get the setcpu for free thru xda so now from the setcpu idk what im doin, any help

You should be looking at some sliders. Top one is for max CPU clock, bottom one for min CPU clock. Set the bottom one as low as possible, but not so low that the device won't play audio while the screen is off. Don't check the "apply at boot" until you're sure you're stable or else you'll be reflashing your ROM. You can also change your governor. You're average Tbolt should do 1.4GHz easily, but many will do 1.6GHz solidly as well. As long as you don't check "apply at boot", the system will reboot back to defaults if it becomes unstable. If you've got any questions, feel free to PM me.

gingerbread 2.3.5
have you tried to flash the rom again to c if thats the problem
Hi there,
1. Did u do a full wipe before installing the new rom?
2. You could try installing faux123 1Ghz kernel LINK use "Enhanced Stock Kernel, Max @ 1.0 GHz". Install the one for GINGERBREAD
Link to Faux123 1.0 GHz kernel
[ Installation procedure: ]
[ CWM Method ]
1. reboot to CWM
2. Clear cache
3. install zip from SDcard
4. Reboot
Hope this helps
P.S.: "Wet Dream" is the new version of "The Darkside" might be worth to take a look
Grtz
Faux kernel will prevent boots but will erase every widget at every reboot...
I has the best results with the stock intl kernel (see GingerMod Rom). I don't have reboots anymore...
Sounds like the rom didn't install properly, I'd go through the wipe and factory reset/dalvik once again and reinstall. Just make sure to do a backup just in case it backfires.

That's just not true. I've used both .23 and .24beta kernels and the widget thing rarely happens. It does happen, but not on every reboot.

As has been already mentioned, make sure you do a full and proper wipe of your phone before flashing roms, but another problem could be that you're being too extreme with undervolting. Try reducing your undervolts if you have been undervolting. Or, if you have an extreme overclock kernel, consider lowering clock speeds because each phone is different, and some (even ones of the same type) can't handle as high of clock speeds as others. But, I suspect that your main problem is that you didn't follow the proper steps before flashing.
1. Boot into recovery (hold the volume down button while booting, then press down until you see android recovery, and then press up)
2. Do a factory reset
3. Clear cache partition
4. Clear dalvik cache
5. flash the zip
Note: factory reset will erase all your data, so backup any files you want to keep before doing so.
To flash a new kernel, do what denbeutels said, except you should clear dalvik as well. Android needs to recompile certain things to optimize them for the new kernel, so it's a very important step.

Are you following the faux123 kernel thread in development?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22178618&postcount=2965
Ok, after running a few days on the new faux 0.2.4 1.45GHz kernel, I've experienced quite a few reboots as well (ok, an order of magnitude more than before). Right now I have gone back to faux 0.2.3 1.3GHz and haven't seen any problems yet. I was mainly getting reboots during undocking (all dock types), but also sometimes during normal use. And I'm talking about 3-5 reboots throughout the day.
Edit: And of course, as soon as I posted this, I got another reboot (this time while using webtop in the lapdock and simply closing a Synaptic window). Next I'll have to start tracking down anything I installed recently that may be doing this.

[Q] Touchscreen Unresponsive

My SGS II is currently running on:
ROM: CheckROM RevoHD V4
Baseband: I9100XXKI4
Kernel: Dark Knight v2.5.2
Sometimes, the touch screen will no response to any touch. nothing happen no matter how hard i try to press the screen. but the buttons are all working fine.
the only way to get back to normal is i have to switch off the phone by taking out the battery, put it back and restart the phone. and i need to perform this a couple of time before the touch screen get back to normal.
any idea how to rectify this problem?
i already tried a different kernel but the problem still persist.
Sounds like you are having a SOD (Screen of death). Usually happens due to the CPU being overclocked or undervolted.
I would recommend checking with SetCPU or Voltage control apps if you are undervolted.
Another thing worth trying is to create a Nandroid backup of your ROM with CWM then trying to flash a different custom ROM (Hyperdroid, Villain or Foxhound Batista) to see if it persists.
You sometimes don't need to do a battery pull to reboot your phone. If you hold the power key for 10 seconds it will reboot from an SOD
PM me if you need any help
Go back to/reflash stock firmware & see if the problem persists. If it does, then it *might* be an issue with your screen/something else. If not, then it's clearly a rom/kernel issue.
Tq for your suggestion.
Before I flash a different ROM, how to reset the configuration of CPU?

What I meant was to ensure that the configuration is as per stock ROM.
Btw, I already flashed to the stock ROM, as suggested. Now, just wait and see.
Unfortunately, using the stock ROM, I lost the video feature of Google Talk. :-(
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
If you're running stock then you'll be unable to overclock/underclock, etc without root, so the CPU will run up to 1200mhz if that's what you mean ?
I've never used Google Talk (was one of the first things I froze when I rooted my phone), so I can't say how/why it doesn't work for you.
Re: whether you can reproduce the problems you were having with screen responsiveness, let us know after a day or so of running stock whether that issue has resolved itself. As mentioned previously, if not, then there's obviously something with your previous rom/kernel causing that. You could then ask the dev/users of either or both the rom or the kernel for advice about maybe fixing that problem when running same.

At first I was thinking of configuring the CPU as per stock ROM without flashing it.
But, on second thought, I think it's better to flash it to the stock ROM.
Unfortunately, I am not able to reproduce the error. So, need to monitor it for a few days.
Will update you on the outcome.
Thanks!

[Q] Kernel Stability ?

Hopefully somebody can shed some light for me.
It does not matter which Custom Kernel I try my SGS 2 suffers from random reboot and lockups also sometimes the battery will drain completely in a matter of minutes.
It is getting quite frustrating I have tried Siyah and NEAK numerous times with the sane results.
This is always from a fresh install.
It happens on multiple Roms CM9 AOKP and Foxhound (I am using the correct Kernel)
Is there a stable
I am not overclocking or fiddling with any settings either ?
Sorry misread

Try flashing a completely different rom such as Resurrection Remix, Paraandroid, RebelROM etc.. and leave the stock rom see how you go.
Make sure do a full wipe
/wipe data/factory reset
/wipe data
/wipe dalvik cache
/format system
/format emmc
Then reflash the ROMs accordingly.
/wipe cache
/wipe dalvik
See how you go from there..
Also it is always good to check what is going on in your system by using Better Battery Stats.
Check task manager for application running in background and kill what you dont need.
At the end you may want to use Titanium Backup to permanently stop and/or remove unwanted services.
EDIT: did it also happen on any of the official ROMs? If so you may consider hardware (battery?) malfunction.

[Q] x10i Keeps Rebooting.

Hello,
I have flashed a few custom ROMs onto my x10i and each time it reaches the lock screen when it starts up it just seems to go into a reboot loop from kernel splash screen to lock screen again. Is there any fix for this ? I have tried using SEUS and restarting the whole process of flashing a kernel, rooting etc but it doesn't seem to work. it literately only happens when it reaches the lock screen. sometimes it lasts longer than that. Whenever I wipe the system it seems to work fine but as soon as a few things are running it starts to reboot again. The current ROM I'm running is PAC-man, with the kernel supplied along with it.
Could anyone help me ?
Thanks,
mmy4life
I have the same problem
use the phone until the battery become empty charge it in off mode up to 100 enter in xrecovery advanced options wipe battery stats and reboot
maybe you did an error when flashing or it runs wrong kernel. my suggestion : just use another ROM there are many nice ROM you can choose, and dont forget to follow step by step installation guide provide by developers.
Is the rom overclocked as this can can happen on some devices try and set the CPU to 998

That usually happens when the ROM is using overclocked CPU settings or an unstable CPU governor as default but it can also be defaulted inside the kernel. You simply flash another kernel and appropriate ROM.

Then it has to be a hardware problem. Try removing your SD card before booting it up.

I flashed 2.3 and it kept rebooting after a while, so i re flashed 2.1 and it is more stable but reboots if i open a app or anything that uses ram.
btw 1eyedmonster how do you set the CPU to 998?
I am also having ths reboot and crash issue... is there no fix for it? I have read about this reboot error at numerous sites. Must be a bug or summin man... or we dn summin wrong... and if it were hardwars related then to what hardware wd you be referring to? Is it a replaceable part? How easy wd such a task honestly be... i have 2.3.3 with 3.0.0.75 and no matter what it just wont stop dropping itself while i just start to appreciate it all over again... so im sure there have bn plenty issues regards this... so is there an answer?
