This kernel is working with every ICS based Rom
Features:
- 378, 391 and 403 Mb Ram available (selectable in kernel, no need for a patch (403 mb breaks 720p) only reboot required)
- 2 different recoveries included (cmw touch recovery + twrp recovery (to use TWRP, just create a file named "twrp" at /cache))
- SIO scheduler (default)
- V(R) scheduler (maybe even faster than SIO, can be set as default by using NSTools for example)
- init.d
- Voodoo Sound and CM9 Color Adjusment / Voodoo Color (VC version)
- Devil Idle
- BLN V9 (thx to mialwe)
- USB Host mode driver (for more information about this, and for saying thanks to the guy, who ported this for our phone, please visit this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1450298 )
-Ezekeel's Live_Oc
- Ezekeel's Deep Idle V2
- Touchwake
- vibrator intensity control (by mialwe)
- BLX (Batterie Life Extender, I don't think we need it, but maybe one feels better by using it )
- backports from Linux 3.2 and 3.3
- Swap/Zram support
- Zcache, Cleancache and Frontswap
- Uksm
- Fiops io scheduler
- Smooth_ui included to ondemand, conservative, smartass, lulzactive, lagfree and lazy governor (only one setting for activating/deactivating it in general)

Both Apps are really great. Please try on your own, which one you like more.
you still can use the previous methods of setting up the kernel:
Please also try this app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22430406, for setting many of the options which are only available with my kernel.

Kernels with VC in the name are coming with Voodoo Color
oliva94 said:
IF the kernel zip name contains _JB_, THEN and only then you can use it IF you do NOT have datadata partition
ELSE if you HAVE datadata, then use one WITHOUT _JB_ in the name
if you use it otherwise, it will boot but system is eventually going to crash/not load due to partition table (thus blockdevice naming) mismach

Changelog:
changelog 02.08.2012:
- bug fix to bln, to prevent kernel panic in some situations (thx to thalamus)
- switched from deep_idle 2 to idle2 (also thx to thalamus)
- updated kernel to linux 3.0.38
- dockaudio sysfs for captivate and fascinate
- automated symlinking from data to system: if one wants to free up some space at /system, without removing an app completely, just copy it from /system/app to /data/sys-parts/app (create the folder if not there), and reboot. during reboot, the app from system gets deleted, and the app from /data/sys-parts/app gets symlinked to system. this is working for almost every app, but i don't recommend doing this with apps, needed for android to work (framework, media provider, settings,...)
IDLE2 can be enabled with the following command:
echo 0 > /sys/module/cpuidle/parameters/idle2_disabled
IDLE2 can be disabled with the following command:
echo 1 > /sys/module/cpuidle/parameters/idle2_disabled
Stats can be obtained from the standard cpuidle interface, which, for
IDLE2 is located at:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state*/time
where * = 1, 2, 3
changelog 25.07.2012:
- updated recovery (no "sdcard format"-bug anymore, external sd card is named correctly)
- vibrant: hopefully fixed froyo ril
- jellybean: galaxy s settings working now
changelog 22.07.2012:
This kernel is for use with ICS only, if you are looking for a kernel, running on teamhacksung cm10 build, visit my jellybean kernel thread[/url]
- updated kernal base to linux 3.0.36
- updated "block" to linux 3.3
- readded fiops io scheduler (kept cfq this time)
- updated cwm recovery to 6.0.1.0 (please create a new nandroid, because of possible incompatibilities between old/new recovery)
- compiled with linaro toolchain (gcc 4.7.1) and O3 compiler flags
- made uksm scan less often (save cpu time and power)
- at first boot: only delte init.d scripts created by other kernels
- increased usb write performance
- lowered ram and display voltages a little bit
- fixed some bugs related to devil settings (they should stick now after reboot, if set by one of the devil apps)
- support for scripts in /system/etc/shutdown.d (thx to Efpophis)
all scripts placed at /data/local/shutdown.d or /system/etc/shutdown.d get executed at shutdown/reboot
you can use this, to play a shutdown sound for example.
by default 00shutdown gets created, which plays a music file, when it is placed at one of these folders/places
/system/media/audio/ui/shutdown.ogg
/data/media/audio/ui/shutdown.ogg

- disabled some debugging options
- audio (and for fascinate: camera fixes) by Efpophis+
- patch for improving batterie life by CML
- nfts read/write driver built in (for use with usb host mode)
- reverted refreshrate_mod and gpu_oc mod, as both weren't working
changelog 18.06.2012:
- some changes to load balancing
- added ultra ksm (metioned by zach thx for this my friend)
- readded fiops io scheduler (still experimental and could cause instablilities)
- using snappy compression for zram now (2 times faster, but only 2% less compression)
- added the possibility to change zram size (at /data/local/devil/zram_size, with valid values: 50, 75, 100 and 150 (all in mb))
- fixed the applying of user_min/max freq after reboot
- vibrant: fixed gps
- fascinate: fixed nandroid in cwm recovery
what is ksm? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_SamePage_Merging_(KSM)
uksm is more optimized and also working for single core systems. using this should give much better ram usage, but at the cost of more cpu usage
############# most probably not working (yet)##############
i have added seperate gpu oc from jt1134's galaxy_tab (to switch between 200 and 250 mhz), but i did not get any improvements in antutu...further tests needed
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/pvr_oc/pvr_oc (for 250 mhz)
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/pvr_oc/pvr_oc (for 200 mhz), no reboot needed
and also have changend default screen refreshrate from 60 to 56, with the possibility to change it:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/refreshrate/enable (60 hz)
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/refreshrate/enable (56 hz)

changelog 01.05.2012:
- all changes from cm9 stock kernel (including mount points option)
- some fine tuning to deadline and sio
- Devil Idle: limiting bus/ram/gpu speed to 100 mhz for 100-800 mhz cpu freq, while screen off (automatic mode) or always (permanet), both modes automatically reduce the int voltages of the affected freq by 50 mV
- compiled with swap support
- added stratosk's smooth_ui to lulzactive governor (activated by default)
- rest oc_value to 100 while screen off, and back when screen turns on (combined with devil idle automatic, can't be turn on/off without devil idle)
- added posibility for different voltages while screen off (also bundled with devil_idle, with default settings, stock arm voltages are applied, because of live_oc set to 100)
- added the possibility to set freq limits while screen off (min and max freq)
19.04.2012
- even better fix to selective live_oc (last one (in test kernel) generated some overhead)
- fixed sampling rate of ondemand and conservative (have ported mialwe's/stratosk's sleep multipliers)
- new tunables for ondemand and conservativ
sleep multiplier and tunables:
mialwe and stratosk had the great idea, to change the sampling rate of conservative and ondemand governor while display of. for this, he introduced the sleepmultiplier (in his case factor 3). this means, if you set sampling rate to 20000, it changes to 60000 while screen off, and back, when screen on.
for ondemand and conservative:
i have made this multipliers tunable. proper values are between 1 and 5, because one could want a higher multiplier while screen off, if sampling rate is very low while screen on (higher sampling rate means, less checking for work load --> better batterie, worse performance). with this tunables you get better batterie, without making the performance worse while screen on.
two other tunables: up_threshold_min_freq and responsiveness_freq
the first one is a very low threshold while on low freq (by default 40), to make the governor scale up faster, until the responsiveness_freq is reached.
the responsiveness_freq is set to 400000 (400 mhz) by default. while the freq is below this value, up_threshold is the same as up_threshold_min_freq, and freq jumps to responsiveness_freq, with skipping the freq between the actual one and the responsiveness_freq. (conservative governor does not jump up to this step)
responsiveness_freq can be set to values between 100000 and 1400000
up_threshold_min_freq can be set to the same values as the normal up_threshold.
not tunable: while screen off, up_threshold is set to 95, no matter your other settings, to save more batterie.
up_threshold_min_freq is disbaled by default for conservative governor
for lulzactive:
for this governor, i did similar things, but they are not tunable till now.
when screen off:
- inc_cpu_load is set to 90, and back to the original value, when screen turns on
- up_sample_time is set to 50000, and back to the original value, when screen turns on
- down_sample_time is set to 40000, and back to the original value, when screen turns on
other changes:
- fix to touchwake from ezekeel, and another fix from stratosk
- upstream fix to compass
- building for i9000B now, too (big thanks to F4k for the hints by pn )
- removed some typos from recovery
- removed some annoying "no's" and "yes" from recovery in misc menu
- fixed wifi mode switch (pm_fast is the one with better signal)
14.04.2012:
- new b versions (only stock ram) changend to 377 mb, VC version needs the 720p fix from my ftp server. cmc version already patched
13.04.2012:
- updated wifi driver
- added the possibility to switch between wifi PM_Fast and PM_Max mode (Pm_Fast = better signal, PM_Max = better batterie, default is PM_Max)
- user interface to disable fsync (this gives more performace, at the risk of data loss on a crash, taken from ezekeel, so it should be ok ), default is off, to be safe
- fixed voodoo color kernels (these have the VC in their names)
10.04.2012:
- added vibrator intensity control (by mialwe), presets can be changend in recovery
- stock ram version now available (348 mb ram), XL (390 mb), XL_bm (402 mb)
- removed 1080 mhz freq for now
- small correction to touchwake
- small correction to selective live_oc (now the low freq really are not live_oc'ed)
05.04.2012:
- fixed bug in selective live_oc, which caused the target high not taking affect to the highest freq, if highest freq equals target high
- fixed another bug in selective live_oc, which could lead to gpu crashes due to overclocking the ram, but not the cpu freq (for low steps)
- added a switch to change between "normal" and selective live_oc
by changing the live_oc mode while using it, live_oc value is set back to 100, to prevent strange things
- added possibility to set max. freq for boot (in recovery). This freq is set until init.d is executeted (it is automatically set to 1000 at this point, to make sure there are no conflicts with other cpu settings from users)
#Already in the last version, but i forgot about it:
- deep idle fixes from stratosk (many thanks)
- added possibility to underclock by using live_oc (limit is 90 now, which means lowering all freq and bus speed by 10%, to save more batterie when really needed)
03.04.2012:
For now there are three different RAM versions:
- stock mem kernel has 379 mb ram, everything working
- "slim ics" (XL) kernel comes with 390 mb, this is breaking playback of some high resolution videos
- XL_BM is coming with 402 mb ram, but breaking 720p
(while flashing the kernel, the modded rom files are also flashed, so you don't need to flash a new rom to get 379 or 390 mb)
-added new frequency: 1080 mhz (1100 does not like live_oc)
- fixed SmartassV2 for live_oc (after changing live_oc value, you have to change the smartass values, too, but then they automatically apply to the live_oc value (although you can only select 800 mhz in nstools (for example))
- touch recovery with custom devil menu (for some reason it takes a few seconds to load the first time, missing virtual keys is a warning, because there are no virtual keys yet)
-fast charge (thx to chad0989 for this), disabled by default.
you also can use the widget from chad (to place on homescreen) to toggle the fast_charge mode
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...stchargewidget

How to:
you can change ram setting by doing the following ( to make these settings even stick after power off, you also have to echo the same value to to /data/local/devil/bigmem):
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/bigmem/enable (this gives you xl mem of 391 mb)
echo 2 > /sys/kernel/bigmem/enable (this gives you bm mem of 403 mb (this is breaking 720p))
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/bigmem/enable (this gives you cm9 default mem of 378 mb)
you have to reboot to make changes work

With setting this, your desired swap mode gets automatically applied at boot time. For swap, you have to create a swap partition at your external sd card before
echo 1 > /data/local/swap_use (for using swap partition on external sd card, you have to create this partition before)
echo 2 > /data/local/swap_use (for using Zram, no other modifications required)
you have to reboot to make changes active. You can't use swap and Zram at the same time

These are the settings for devil idle:
activate automatic:
echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/devil_idle/bus_limit
permanent on:
echo 2 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/devil_idle/bus_limit
deactivate
echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/devil_idle/bus_limit_automatic

to set different voltages while screen off (this only is working, if devil idle automatic mode is activated)
this is an example, how to apply screen_off arm voltages:
echo 1450 1400 1350 1275 1075 975 875 800 > /sys/class/misc/customvoltage/arm_volt_screenoff
this way, it is possible to undervolt while screen off, but overvolt and overclock while screen on
for now, the int voltages can not be changend

set freq limits while screen off (min and max freq)
enable the limits:
echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/devil_idle/user_min_max_enable
disable:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/devil_idle/user_min_max_enable
set values to be applied if activated:
echo 100000 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/devil_idle/user_min
echo 800000 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/devil_idle/user_max
both are independent from devil_idle, and get applied when screen turns off
by default 100 and 1000 mhz are set.
values which can be put here are all "stock" freq (without live_oc level) multiplied with 1000. live_oc values get applied automatically.

to set responsiveness_freq, up_threshold_min_freq or sleep_multiplier for ondemand and/or conservative governor, you have to do it like this:
echo VALUE > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/VARIABLE_NAME
and
echo VALUE > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/conservative/VARIABLE_NAME
example:
echo 400000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/responsiveness_freq
echo 50 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold_min_freq
echo 5 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/sleep_multiplier
up_threshold_min_freq is disbaled by default for conservative governor
(to disable it for ondemand you have to set up_threshold_min_freq to 100.

echo 1 > /sys/class/misc/deepidle/stats_enabled
Q: What's the meaning of TOP=Off and TOP=On when I look at the Deep Idle status?
A: When TOP=Off is used, the best powersaving state is used. TOP=ON will be shown, when bluetooth or gps are running.
Q: In Idle status I only see TOP=On. What's wrong here? I don't use Bluetooth or Gps.
A: You have to flash the modded framework-res.apk, because ICS does not fully deactivate bluetooth by default. Even if you never use it.
Q: Idle Stats only are showing Idle, but no Deep Idle. Why?
A: An App is preventing the use of Deep Idle. At first, you should try closing the cam, running in the background. Also rebooting should solve this problem.
Q: What is fudgeswap?
A:
Setting this to a very large positive number will indicate swap ought
to be fully used as free (and will slow the system down)
smaller numbers will allow you to put some pressure on SWAP without
slowing the system down as much.
small negitive numbers will allow the system to be faster at the same
minfree level.
default is 512 to give a very little bit of pressure to use some swap
but this can be modified at runtime via:
/sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/fudgeswap

Very nice, was looking forward to this! Thanks (;

I've been waiting for this for so long. Thank you

I really hope, that everything is working, especially the touchkeys...
Then I can start to add more, in about 6 hours.

I've been waiting to see this in the Captivate Forum

thanks for the new kernel any chance you can write up a post about what each of the tweaks do im still trying to wrap my head around all the terms here lol

Nice to have another kernel around. What is the highest OC on it?

1,4GHZ is the max step you can choose
Kernel runs smooth, games run very well at 1,1GHZ Step with 110%LiveOC SmartassV2 and Deadline
Touchkeys are working fine too
Edit:
The min min step is 200mhz
cant change it to 100

That, and there's also selective LiveOC so you can probably max out your phone's capabilities. I haven't flashed yet, just going off of the OP.

this is because of the min freq is set to 200, while the gpu is active...in most cases, this is, when your screen is on
please check cpu spy stats, to see, that 100 mhz also is used.
but, i am going to remove it, cause everyone can set 200 mhz as min, if he/she likes to.

In the Recovery are 3 different profiles, when i choose as example smooth profile what changes are made ?
Looked into the i9000 thread but cant find the answer

Testing
Testing with Doc's Master V11. So far, so good!
Thanks for your hard work!

when you choose smooth, almost each governor is using more agressive profiles for better performance. if you choose powersave, the same, but more power, and with normal, the default governor settings are applied
it's for those of you, who don't want to search and try own settings (or at least, to get an idea, how to change some things)

Testing this out with my previous settings from Glitch, so far so good at 117% LiveOC on 1GHz step.

Will this kernel support call recording from the line? Many people missed that feature from old android 2.2.1

Underclocking (CPU/GPU)
The stock CPU frequencies for the Galaxy SII are 200MHz-1200MHz. The stock GPU frequencies are 160MHz-267MHz. These however can be underclocked and in fact many actually do.
Advantages:
Better battery life.
Device stays cooler.
Theoretically increasing your devices lifespan.
Disadvantages:
Performance not meeting expectations.
Before deciding to underclock your CPU/GPU, you should always consider what you use your device for. If you don't play games that are GPU heavy, you might find that underclocking to 100MHZ-160MHZ will have no noticeable effect on performance. The same can be said for CPU underclocking. If you use your phone for general tasks that don't involve a heavy CPU load, dropping your maximum frequency down to 1000MHz or even 800MHz has no noticeable disadvantages.
Underclocking isn't risky and can only serve to provide better battery life, with the only occasional flaw being a dip in performance depending on the weight of performed tasks. The recommended method of finding which underclocking combination is best for you is just to play around with the settings until you find your perfect match!
REMEMBER THE FOLLOWING: If you're Governor and I/O Scheduler aren't optimized for performance, underclocking may lower performance to an unacceptable level. Please take this into consideration.
Undervolting (CPU/GPU)
Many folks will disagree that undervolting has a drastic effect on battery life; we disagree. EVERY LITTLE HELPS.
To put simply, 'mV' stands for the amount of battery the CPU/GPU consumes, per frequency. The higher the frequency, the more battery life your device consumes. So if every frequency step voltage was decreased by -100mV (at least), that's a lot of battery saved over time and we highly recommend it!
Advantages:
Better battery.
Device stays cooler.
Disadvantages:
If done correctly, there are no disadvantages to undervolting.
If you're looking to create your own customization's, our recommendation is to browse our 'Recarenelmendations' section above and use our undervolting values as a template. Each Galaxy device has been manufactured with slight differences, thus some are more capable of successfully operating under lower voltages levels than others. If you find yourself experiencing SOD's/Freezes/Lag/Reboots, we recommend you raising all our voltages up by +25mV until your device is stable. Once stability is found, begin playing with each voltage until it can be reduced no more (you should expect freezes, there's a 99.9% probability that they will occur.) Through trial & error, we can begin to understand your device better, pushing it to its limited, thus minimalism applied voltages & maximizing battery life whilst also reducing heat during heavy load times.

Battery Saving Methods
Make sure that your data's off when your screen is off. (This option is available via AOKP Roms, otherwise use: Green Power)
Only use battery friendly apps; for instance we don't use Facebook as we've read that it actually drains A LOT of battery... we use Fast Pro for this same reason. (It also has a dark theme, which is good for battery.)
Uninstall unnecessary apps/system apps using Titanium Backup. I found this, this might deem knowledgeable: APK Removal List
Use Autostarts to disable apps and system apps from automatically starting-up in the background.
Use a darker wallpapers.
Apply a lower screen brightness for darker environments or use: Lux to intelligently control your screen brightness.
Use a dark theme, such as: Blue Infinitium
Sync only what you need. Nothing more, nothing less.
Be sure to use Betterbatterystats to determine what is keeping your phone awake when your screen is off & not deep sleeping.
Use Badass Battery Monitor to detect which apps/system apps inflict the largest drain. If you can target these rogue apps, you can uninstall or replace them.
Lastly, be intuitive. Be overly cautious about what might be sucking up your battery and eventually you'll get things right.

thanks for the help!

Hello,
Thanks for sharing your experience with the others, that is great. I'm gonna check your config soon. But when I started using NEAK kernel and tried UV/UC I experienced many wakelocks (when unlocking lock screen the phone hanged).
I came back to default configuration (without UC/UV with Lulzactive/VR with default settings) but it didn't help. Only then that I disabled "Ext4 Boost", the hangs disappeared. Have you ever experienced this? Is it possible that Ext4 Boost caused this problem or maybe it helped by accident? I'm on XXLPS sammy rom.

Interesting. You might be better off asking Simone about this one. Seems very strange because I haven't experienced problems since day one. Deep sleep is existent. Wakelocks are non-existent. I'm sure someone on the N.E.A.K. ICS thread will be able to help you.

Hey. My recommendation is not to use 100mhz at all, as it wouldn't be battery friendly. Especially because 200mhz is at 800mV, which is the lowest you can go.
You should set your CPU frequency at 200mhz-1200mhz for optimal performance and battery.
Be sure to follow my settings exactly, as they're stable. Even the slightest change might cause instability, unless you're sure you know what you're doing.

Nice done. Im using Siyah but my configs are similar to u so i can give u some question.
I often get around 5 hours of screen on time but i domt play game so I think it's equal.
Your CPu undervolt is amazing, i never thought of setting 200mhz to 800, it's insane, congrats dude
By the way, i only set lulz app cpu load to 75%, i think 90% is too high, but many people do so, so it.must be a reason, can u tell me why ?
By the wau,ur pump up and pump down step is 2 - 1, exactly like.mine , im just too confused about its rate, I set it to 35000, 25000, which of it do u think is best ?

Thanks! Did you try these settings out by the way? (I would love to know if they work for Siyah kernel users.)
I was amazed too. I took a shot in the dark and was shocked and overjoyed that I could get 200mhz down to bare minimum. Very useful indeed!!
90% cpu load is the most I can go with my settings, anything over that freezes my phone. I used to set it to 60%, 70%, 80%... but I really just wanted to maximize battery life. From what I understand, 90% cpu load will restrict high CPU frequencies until they're REALLY needed, so 1000MHZ & 1200MHZ will only kick in at the last minute, (saving tons of juice). I haven't had any issues and would recommend that you definitely give 90% a try. Experimentation is the key.
I know I set my up_sample & down_sample to 20000us, 40000us - but it really is just about what works for you. If I drastically change either one, I'll get varying performances. They generally stay static, unless I have a major breakthrough or blindly test out a theory.
The only things that really change in my overall settings are: Voltages, Dynamic Hotplug Thresholds, GPU mV and perhaps the cpu load (in some situations).
Hope this helps you.

Hi, thanks for the settings info, getting great battery life similar to stock . Only thing I noticed is that wi-fi drops out quite frequently. Would that be anything to do with UV?

Very doubtful dude. Haven't had problems my end. Was having some Wi-Fi problems on the previous version of N.E.A.K. (2.0.3), but they were all cleared up by 2.0.4.
Which ROM are you using? Could be a ROM issue? or even a possible compatibility issue between your current ROM and your internet router/modem?
Otherwise, I have no freakin' idea man. Very strange.

Great settings mate. Using this with my new 2000 mAh battery and HyDrOG3N-ICS 05.05. So far seems good and stable.

If you get su lost message, just reboot to cwm and again reboot to system. It will fix the problem.

So what is my rom ?
Basically tweaked for performance and battery
Stock based (I love stock UI)
Custom kernel tweaked for balance between performance and battery
Stripped un-needed stuff from the kernel. Small size
Custom SlimJB scripts to further enhance the rom
Comes with OTA update feature
Find out other features..
How to install :
The normal method
Download, place in sdcard. Aroma is self- explanatory..
In cwm, mount all partitions. Somehow the script doesn't do it..
Just make sure you wipe cache and do a factory reset before installation.
In aroma, choose installation method as default
How to use Goo Manager :
Goo Manager will automatically scan for updates on every boot and every 24 hours. You can change this in the app settings.
To update using Goo Manager, just click on the notification. The download will be automatically started. You can also see the changelog in the app.
To manually check for updates, open the app and click on check for updates.
DO NOT INSTALL OPEN RECOVERY. If the app asks you, just choose that you have a recovery installed.
Edit : Since our param driver is bugged, goo manager won't be able to install the update. You will have to manually install it.

How to tweak the kernel furthermore :
In short :
Same as CoCore E
In long :
Here are some intructions/tips about how to play with the kernel.
Terminal is needed.
If you want to change the values,it needs su permission.
If you get 'Permisson denied',you need su permisson.
You can cd to the folder first,then do echos.
( Boot time )
CoCore-E boots faster than stock normally.
How to check boottime?
* TWRP kernel boottime is longer(around 8000ms).Because of that big ramdisk!
( Bootanimation )
Put bootanimation.zip in /system/media/.
Recommend you changing the permission to 0666.
If there is no bootanimation.zip,kernel will show you Samsung's.
( CPU governors )
* OnDemand has been patched cpu idle detection
* PegasusQ is taken from SiyahKernel (new version)
* Personaly,I use PegasusQ/OnDemand(Q)/HotPlug
* To be honest,most of custom governors are based on ondemand/interactive
* OndemandQ is a new governor.It will hotplug cpu when screen turns off only.
* If you mind the battery life time,choose HotPlug.It hotplugs cpu frequently.
* Interactive updated to linux-android-3.4 [Thanks!Aditya!]
* Zzmoove is new version(0.3),i havent tested fully.
( IO schedulers )
* Please choose them by yourself
* Personaly.i use SIO.
( Deepest sleep state )
Stock deepest is 3.Now it is 4 by default.
Deepest supported is 5.
To change:
* PegasusQ(hotplug governors) works badly with 5
* OnDemand works well with 5
* Please note that it wont increase the using time but standby time.
To check the cpuidle state:
( zRAM SWAP )
[zRAM]
zRAM is optimized for Android.
It is not lazy anymore.
Using zRAM will take a little CPU,because it needs to compress/decompress memory.
Setup disksize first: (example: 96mb= 96×1024×1024)
* Lager size more RAM will be compressed.
Enable:
Code:
mkswap /dev/block/zram0
swapon /dev/block/zram0
To check how many does it use:
* You can get other info in its sysfs
[SWAP]
Format/resize your SdCard via computer first.
Enable:
( Init.d script )
Please install busybox in system first
I recommend you install busybox via apps
Create a new folder named 'init.d' in /system/etc
Set the permisson of init.d foler to 0777(rwxrwxrwx) (at least has read and exec permission)
Set the owner to 0.0 (root root)
Put some scripts (any name you like) in init.d folder with permisson 0777 (rwxrwxrwx) (at least has read and exec permission)
Scripts with right permisson will be runned when system boots.
( Charger control )
Please note that this control can damage your battery/phone.
If your battery/phone damaged,read the top of #1 post.
Lower current makes the charging longer,but protects battery.
Too high current can burn your battery!
I recommend you that dont set the max limited current over 900mA.
To change the AC max limited current: (range: 100 - 1100) (default: 600)
To change the USB max limited current: (range: 50 - 1100) (default: 500)
* Your values wont be applied immediately.They will be applied when plug charger.
* I recommend you input some values like 300,350,600...
* The value(s) that is not in range will be reverted to stock default value(s).
* Increase USB current properly can implement USB fast charging
To get the charging current:
When you plug charger:
( Charge cycle control )
To increase the recharge times:
(Default: 3)
* 5 is recommended.If you want more recharging.
* This probably can make phone charge deeper,do it once a month if you want.
( Real charged notification )
Well,please let me call it notification.
To be honest,it needs to check manually.
* You can use Rootexplorer to view this file.
* When it says "First full charging reached",then the UI should show you charged 100%
But it is not the real full charged.
* When it says it is the real full charged,you can unplug the charger.
* When you are charging and do a reboot will reset the counter.
* According to my experiments,it needs 1-2 hours to charge to real full.
( Sound control )
Please note that listening to too high volume music over 1 hour can damage your ears.
Or makes your speaker/headset overload.
(5.0+) Sound control has been enhanced.Please read it carefully.
Switch to sound control folder:
cd /sys/mo*/snd_soc*/p*
Use RootExplorer to view this folder,you will see a lot files.
Sound hacks wont take effects immediately.It depends on powering on/off ab8500 asoc.
Stop music for 5s to let ab8500 asoc shut down fully,then turn on music.
You need to enable XXXXX_con first,then tweak the XXXXX_bit.
After enabling XXXXX_con,it will be applied when codec powers on or it wont.
How do i check whether it has shuted down or not?
dmesg | grep codec
If you get "Disable ab850x",it has been powered off.
I will explain how to calculate the binay values below.
If we echo 0000 to something,system will consider it as 0.
But that doesnt matter.
'(default)' means that is my default setting in sound control.
[AnaGain3] (Headset audio path):
Ana stands for 'analong'.This is analong gain.
To enable control:
To tweak volume: [volume 0(default, +31dB) > 34 > 68(stock) > 85 > 87]
* Most values(except 0,34,68,85) will make the volume lost balance.
* If you hear too much noise with 0,34 is recommended.
* It is nice to use 0 with large speakers(audio output)
[HsXDigGain] (Headset Digital Gain)
HsL means left channel.HsR is the right.
To enable control:
To tweak:
* 0000: +8 dB gain (default)
* 0001: +7 dB gain
* ....: -1 dB step
* 0111: +1 dB gain
* 1000: 0 dB gain
* 1001 to 1111: -inf dB gain (mute)
* If you use +31 dB AnaGain3 + +8 dB DigGain,the result will higher than +39dB!
* Be careful,when the volume is too high,codec will power off automatically.
* Experience the differences between digital gain and analong gain by yourself.
[HsLowPow] (Headset low power mode)
This lowpow mode is enabled by driver normally.
If you want high performance audio instead of LPA(low power audio),
You can disable it.
To enable control:
To tweak:
* 0: Normal Operation (default)
* 1: Hs drivers in Low Power
[HsDacLowPow] (Headset DAC low power mode)
DAC is Digital-to-Analong Converter.
This lowpow mode is enabled by driver normally.
To enable control:
To tweak:
* 00: Normal Operation (default)
* 01: Hs DAC drivers in Low Power
* 10: Hs DAC in Low Power
* 11: Hs DAC and Hs DAC drivers in Low Power
[HsHP] (Headset high pass filter)
This high pass filter is enabled by driver normally.
If you want more low freq sound,disable it.
To enable control:
To tweak:
* 0: Headset high pass filter disabled (defualt)
* 1: Headset high pass filter enabled (offset cancellation enabled)
[ClassDDithHPGain]
ClassD is a kind of amplifier.
According to the documents,our ClassDs only relate to Handsfree(speaker).
To enable control:
To tweak:
* Gain control for the high pass component of dithering filter
* 0000: Minimum gain
* ....:
* 1010: Maximum gain (default)
[ClassDDithWGain]
* Gain control for the white component of dithering filter
* 0000: Minimum gain
* ......:
* 1010: Maximum gain
[ClassDHiVol]
This is a gain of speaker.But +2dB only.
echo 1 > classdhivol_con
Say 1(default) to enable:
* In fact,our speaker is right channel only!
[MicXGain] doesnt work...I will add more in the future.
How to calculate the binary values?
We use HsXDigGain as example.
The gain step is "+1".
In binary: So the values will like these:
0+1 = 1 | 0001: +7 dB
1+1 = 10 | 0010: +6 dB
10+1 = 11 | 0011: +5 dB
11+1 = 100 | 0100: +4 dB
..... | ......
[Experts!]:
This method can work on any ab850x codec platform!
Play music,reduce the volume.
Now we are going to edit the codec registers.
E.G:
AnaGain3:
HsDigGain: (left/right channel)
Disable all lowpow mode:
* These hacks will restore when codec power off.
( Touch Booster control )
What is touch booster?
It can jump the cpufreqs(in fact,not only cpufreqs) to high value when you touch to improve the experience of touching.
Disabling this can save some power.
To disable: (default: enable)
To change the boost freq: (default: 800000) (Vaild: 200000,400000,800000,1000000)
( Touch Sensitivity control )
If you play some games like Temple Run,higher sensitivity might help.
To change: (stock: 22) (default: 17) (range: >0)
* Lower value,higher sensitivity.
* Turn on/off screen to apply the changes
* Parameter "threshold" to check the changes
* When charging,the threshold will be forced replace by threshold_chrg
* With high sensitivity,your touches can be applied even screen coveres something.
( Fsync control )
To disable fsync: (0=disable 1=enable)
* Disabling fsync can improve io performace,
but it can make the data which hasnt been written lose when a sudden poweroff comes.
* Disabling fsync or enabling dyn_fsync will make param driver fail to store data
That means your "reboot recovery" will be failed.
To enable dynamic fsync:
* Dynamic fsync will sync all buffers when screen turns off,
* If there is a heavy io load,the screen might stick for seconds.
* This is an experiment feature.
( WiFi suspend pm control )
To enable: (default: disable)
* Enable=PM_FAST (Faster) Disable=PM_MAX (Powersave)
( Mali GPU )
Mali debug level
Disabling can speed up a bit
* Higher level,more messages will be printed in dmesg,system will slow down
Mali L2 max reads control: (Stock:28kb,Default:48kb(max))
* Some values will slow down graphics
* If not sure,keep default
Mali PM sampling rate: (Default: 1000ms)
Mali PP scheduler tweaks: (Default: disable)
* Enabling this,Some places will over ahead,choose by your self
Mali Utilization sampling rate: (Stock:500ms,Default:1000ms)
How often report a mali utilization.
* Keep this default if unsure.
Mali Utilization control
(Default: low_to_high 192 high_to_low 64)
This probably will relate to the smoothness.
Our driver will report a mali utilization frequently.
This utilization(range: 0~255) means the load of mali.
If utilization is bigger than low_to_high,driver will request higher hardware performance(highest APE/DDR OPP).
If utilization is smaller than high_to_low,the driver will store the requested OPP(uses low OPP).
OPP can be understood as freq simply.
To check mali utilization values:
Then you will see the utilization it reports.
When it says SIGNAL_HIGH,it will request highest OPP.
When it says SIGNAL_LOW,it will request lowest OPP.
Press Ctrl+C to stop printing.
In my Temple Run,it seldom reaches low_to_high(192).
That means you can reduce low_to_high to trigger higher OPP requirement.
For smoothness and less powersaving:
Set low_to_high between 100-192.
( TCP congestions )
Supported:
To check all the available options:
To change to other option:
* I use YeAh
* In fact,every congestion is disigned for different environments.
* Google to learn deeper!
( EGL Driver )
To remove sw egl driver:
Edit /system/lib/egl.cfg
To
* According to my feelings: after removing sw egl driver,UI is faster
( Service Mode )
In dialer, type:
Secret code:*#197328640*# (service mode)
Secret code:*#9900*# (SysDump)
In SysDump:
Disable fastdormancy might help 3G standby time (Depends on your mobile base station)
* Google to learn more
RAM DUMP is a debugger.Most of us wont use it.So disable it. (Tap it,every tap will make a reboot,until it shows you "Disable....",then tap disable,it is disabled)
* Google to learn more about secret code
( Multi-core scheduler )
What is it? How does it work?!
(Default: 2) (Echo 0/1/2)
0 : No power saving load balance.
1 : Fill one thread/core/package first for long running threads.
2 : Also bias task wakeups to semi-idle cpu package for power savings.
( Logcat )
Well,we have made android logger(logcat) as module to free more RAM.
Some guys request logcat.
Now we provide you a workaround:
Create a new init.d script:
Then you can use logcat command.
Almost tweaks will be restored to default after reboots.
So you can make your tweaks as init.d scripts to apply them when boots. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Kernel How-To's :
( FAQ )
Q: What firmware does this kernel support?
A: All ROM bases on stock firmwares,all stock firmwares.
Q: Why my phone lags a lot!
A: Please check the cpu load.If it always goes very high,some apps are using cpu!And please check that you are not in PowerSaving mode.
Q: Why my phone lags after booting in some minutes?!
A: Media Scanner is running in the background. More media files(especially HD videos),more time it will take
Q: Why my phone cannot go to deep sleep when screen is off!!!
A: Fix it yourself. It is app(s) taking the wakelock. Not kernel.
Q: Do I need to wipe anything when flashing this kernel?
A: NO
Q: My phone rebooted suddenly!!! What can i do?!
A: Give me /proc/last_kmsg and logcat. Will try my best to fix.
Q: Hey!Your kernel has issue!No-fills CPU shows me a wrong freqs!Fix it!
A: This is NOT issue.Every I9070 kernel will have this problem.Because No-fills will show you Dynamic Min/Max scaling freqs,DVFS(dynamic voltage and frequency system) will adjust Min/Max freq according to system load.
Open SetCPU,it shows you real freqs.Or check sysfs directly.

Yeah. You can

Like this rom! Hope I can install it soon! P.s. Is it debloated?

Not really. Some useless apps have been removed though.
Next releases may have the option to select apps as per the user requirements while installing.

Nice! I wanna test!!!!

I'll try it and give you feedback

Does it have "ripple lockscreen mod"? Or can I install on it? Is it deoxeded?

I've complete the basic guide on Stweaks. Now I have to start on the advanced guide!
I was looking at other device threads when I noticed that there was no guide explaining all of the things you can do in dorimanx. There were guides on how to tune other kernels but NOT dorimanX. This is well needed thread that is long overdue and should have been created ages ago. So please, be patient.
Changelog:

25/04/15:
- Unofficially finished basic guide on Stweaks

Installation
I won't include a guide on how to root your phone or how to put the kernel onto your phone. I assume you already know how to root your phone.
Picture coming soon
Step 1:
Reboot your phone to recovery
Step 2
Select install zip
Step 3
Select the storage location
Step 4
Find DorimanX kernel zip
Step 5
Confirm to flash
Step 6
Let it finish flashing
Step 7
Reboot your phone to system

Initial Setup
When your phone is rebooting, you'll notice a loading bar under your phone's logo and then this screen will pop up:
No need to worry as that is the DorimanX boot/splash screen. If your phone can get past this and boot into your OS, congratulations. DorimanX has been successfully installed.
To double check if your kernel has changed, go to your phone's settings, about phone. Then scroll down until you see something similar to this:
Now lets go to the app drawer. You will see an app called Stweaks. This is the app you want to tweak DorimanX kernel.
Here is how the app looks like. It may be complicated for beginners but I will guide you through how to use it

Stweaks Basics
Note: This is the i9100 version of dorimanx stweaks. I will not make a guide for the newer dorimanx stweaks app since I don't have the LG G2! However, if someone can provide screenshots, I'm sure I can do something about it!
CPU
Boot CPU frequency:
The CPU frequency that your phone will run at while booting or at startup. Increase this for faster boot speed, decrease for better battery life and stability.
My Recommendation: Leave it to defaults
Boost CPU frequency:
The CPU frequency that your phone will run whenever there is a sharp increase in CPU load. Increase this for faster responsiveness, decrease for better battery life. Please note that you can't set this value higher than the max cpu frequency. It's COMMON-SENSE!
My Recommendation: Leave it to defaults
Max Normal Frequency:
The CPU frequency that your phone will run before going to max frequency. This won't do much to your phone's CPU frequency, so it's best to leave it to defaults unless underclocking.
My Recommendation: Leave it to defaults
Max OC Frequency:
The overall max CPU frequency your phone will run at. Increase this for better responsiveness and processing speed, decrease if you want better battery life.
My Recommendation: Leave it to defaults unless you want to overclock or underclock
Min Frequency:
The minimum CPU frequency your phone will run at. Increase this for better responsiveness and processing speed, decrease if you want better battery life.
My Recommendation: Leave it to defaults unless you want to overclock or underclock
CPU-VOLTAGE
This section of Stweaks allow you to undervolt and overvolt your CPU. Please note that undervolting (UV) your CPU will decrease phone stability if set too low, whereas overvolting (OV) will decrease your CPU's lifespan and generate more heat.
CPU Voltage main switch:
Ticking this enables set CPU voltages. If your phone reboots from instability, stweaks will most likely be resetted to protect your phone from any further problems.
Check CPU Voltage Group:
Using this button checks what CPU voltage group your CPU is using. The Galaxy S2 has 5 different CPU types around the world, the most common is number 3 and the most stable is number 4 and 5. Number 2 and 1 are old CPU types and need more voltage to be stable. If your CPU type is 1 or 2, don't UV much otherwise you'll get SODs. Remember that the higher the number, the more undervolt you can apply on your CPU. If you are downloading someone else's profile and they have a different CPU voltage type, try to avoid using it. Higher voltage require higher voltages to be stable, but at the cost of heat and battery life. Please be careful if you are considering to overclock your CPU!
If you want to undervolt, here are some safe voltages you can set (see link below), just set the sliders to the same voltages for the corresponding frequencies:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MlV6Tbfo_7_QEUnTkfpdioSSPSDSWPJLRxL8Z00A8yA/edit?usp=sharing
CPU-TUNING (AWAKE)
Default CPU governor:
The default CPU governor when your phone is awake (screen is on). DorimanX kernel by default gives users an option to change to various governors such as HYPER, Ondemand and NeoX. Changing this will affect your phone's responsiveness and multitasking performance. For more information about governors, visit my guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/ref-to-date-guide-cpu-governors-o-t3048957
My Recommendation: The default governor (HYPER for the i9100) is responsive and stable for everyday usage, you can change it if your want.
Hotplug_Enable:
The hotplugging governor for your phone. You can choose from Alucard hotplug, Intellihotplug, enabled auto and disabled.
My Recommendation: Leave it to defaults. Enabled Auto setting will select the best hotplugging governor for your device.
Gov Policy Install:
This applies all the changes to the CPU governor settings and tunables. It is required by the user to press this if they want to keep the CPU settings.
Up Threshold:
Measured as percentage, when load on CPU is equal or above this threshold, your CPU will scale up.
Lower value = early scale up, and vice versa. (Applies only to HYPER, Ondemand, Intellidemand, PegasusQ, Conservative, Sleepy and zzmanX)
Default value = 60%
My Recommendation: Change it to 70% for better balance between battery life while keeping good performance.
Up Threshold at min freq sleep:
This threshold is used as up threshold while sampling rate is at frequencies less than freq_for_responsiveness. Above that, normal up_threshold is used.
Lower value = early scale up, and vice versa. (Applies only to HYPER, Ondemand, PegasusQ)
Default value = 50%
My Recommendation: Leave to defaults
Sampling rate sleep:
This factor determines how often the governor should poll for CPU usage in terms of frequency and load percentage to make scaling decisions.
Lower value = early scale up, and vice versa. (Applies only to HYPER, Ondemand, Intellidemand, PegasusQ, Conservative, Nightmare, Darkness Sleepy and zzmanX)
Default value = 60000uS
My Recommendation: Leave to defaults
Freq for responsiveness sleep
Long story short, this is setting is the frequency before the CPU goes to lower frequencies. It prevents any lag spikes from happening.
Lower value = More battery life, but more lags! (Applies only to HYPER, PegasusQ and Nightmare)
Default value = 400000kHz
My Recommendation: Leave to defaults
Down threshold sleep:
This is the same as the up_threshold but for the opposite direction.
Lower value = Frequencies reduced faster, and vise versa. (Applies only to HYPER, Ondemand, Intellidemand, PegasusQ, Conservative, Nightmare, Darkness Sleepy and zzmanX)
Default value = 30%
My Recommendation: Leave to defaults
CPU-TUNING (SLEEP)
Settings are pretty much the same as the awake CPU governor settings, but there are slight changes to the CPU governor tunables (more info on that later).
Deep-Sleep CPU governor:
The default CPU governor when your phone is in deep sleep or standby (screen is off). DorimanX kernel by default gives users an option to change to various governors such as HYPER, Ondemand and NeoX. Changing this will affect battery life and stability. For more information about governors, visit my guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/ref-to-date-guide-cpu-governors-o-t3048957
My Recommendation: The default governor (Ondemand for the i9100) is responsive and stable for everyday usage, you can change it if your want.
IO
Kilobytes To Read-Ahead:
This only applies to the external sd card. This setting determines the kilobytes to read-ahead for your external sd card. Changing this will affect the transfer speeds to your phone's external sd card.
My Recommendation: Leave it to defaults. Auto setting will select the best setting for your device.
Default Awake IO scheduler:
This will set the default IO scheduler when your phone is awake (screen-on). There are many IO schedulers included with dorimanX kernels such as SIO, ZEN, BFQ and CFQ. Changing this will affect transfer speeds, phone responsiveness and load times. For more information about IO schedulers, visit my guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/ref-to-date-guide-cpu-governors-o-t3048957
My Recommendation: You can leave it to the default IO scheduler. I'm sure that the scheduler dorimanX chooses is stable, so if you don't know much about IO schedulers, leave it to defaults. However, I do recommend changing it to a simpler scheduler such as SIO and ZEN which have low overheads and less IO lantency.
Standby and Deepsleep IO scheduler:
The default IO scheduler when your phone is on standby or in deepsleep (screen off).
My Recommendation: Keep it the same as the awake IO scheduler. You can make it different from the awake scheduler if you really want to (but I don't recommend this).
Memory
AUTO OOM
Stands for Automatic low memory management, this allows the low memory management settings to be applied automatically or to take effect on your phone.
Default: Ticked
My Recommendation: Keep it ticked.
OOM Level Screen ON
The setting for the level of low memory management when screen is on. More aggressive settings leads to more free RAM but more killed apps.
Default: Aggressive
My Recommendation: Change it to medium as I believe it's the sweet spot for our phone.
OOM Level Screen OFF
The setting for the level of low memory management when screen is off. Same scenario applies where more aggressive settings leads to more free RAM but more killed apps.
Default: Medium
My Recommendation: Leave to defaults.
GPU
VPLL MODE
Ticking this box allows users to overclock the gpu even further than the default allowed frequencies. Please note that higher frequencies need more voltage, but there is the risk of damaging your GPU if too excessive.
Default: Unticked
My Recommendation: Keep this unticked. This settings is for the advanced overclockers and and tweakaholics. It is too risky keeping this enabled
GPU utilization timeout
This settings changes the CPU utilization timeout calculation. Basically this tunes the ramp up aggresiveness for the GPU, much like the CPU thresholds. Smaller values give faster GPU response but more battery drainage and vice versa.
Default: 400MSec
My Recommendation: Keep to default value.
GPU frequency steps
Dorimanx Kernel includes 5 GPU steps. These steps allow the GPU to scale frequencies efficiently and is originally made to save battery when not busy.
My Recommendation: Keep to default values unless you want to overclock.
GPU voltage steps
Complementing the frequencies, these settings are the GPU voltages for each step. Much like CPU voltages, settings these values too high will result in damage to the GPU, while not having enough voltage will result in instability.
My Recommendation: Keep to default values unless you want to overclock.
Screen
Min BL
Stands for minimum brightness level. Higher value will result in staying in the lowest brightness level for brighter conditions.
Default: 30
My Recommendation: Keep to default values.
Min Gamma
The setting to adjust minimum brightness level.
Default: 1
My Recommendation: Keep to default values.
Max Gamma
The setting to adjust minimum brightness level.
Default: 23
My Recommendation: Keep to default values.
Other settings will be explained in advanced guide!
Sound
Headphone Amplifier:
This setting allows you to adjust the headphone amplification level. Increase this if you want your headphones to sound louder.
My Recommendation: Keep to Disabled or Reset unless you want to boost headphone volume. I don't really recommend increasing this value.
Volume levels and Gain Controls:
These settings should be pretty straightforward, they're clearly labeled. Increase these values to boost the recording/playback volumes.
My Recommendation: Keep values to 0dB unless you want to boost headphone volume. I don't personally increase these values.
BLN
BLN stands for Backlight notification, meaning that your phone's buttons will light up whenever your phone gets a notification.
BLN
Tick it to enable Backlight notification. Please note that BLN will increase your phone's battery drainage when enabled.
My Recommendation: I don't personally enable BLN. Enable it if you want to.
BLN effect
This setting will set LED behavior for BLN, if BLNWW (BLN without wakelock, without getting CPU out of deep sleep) is on, the effect can only be steady. Options include steady, breathing and blinking.
My Recommendation: I don't personally enable BLN. Enable it if you want to.
Notification Timeout
This setting determines how long the Backlight Notification will stay on for. Time ranges from never to 2 hours.
My Recommendation: I don't personally enable BLN. But keeping it to a shorter value will save you battery.
Force LEDS disabled
The title says it all, forces your touch LEDs off if enabled.
My Recommendation: I don't personally enable BLN. Change the settings if you need this function
LED Timeout
This setting determines how long your phone's touch LEDs will light up when touched or when using touch screen.
Default value = 3 sec
My Recommendation: I don't personally enable BLN. Change the settings if you need this function
BLNWW
BLN Without Wakelock. This is a more battery efficient BLN but has less features than normal BLN. Enabling this (while BLN is also enabled) will let the CPU continue to sleep during BLN and save battery.
Default value = Ticked
My Recommendation: I don't personally enable BLN. Tick the setting if you need this function
The rest of the BLN settings should be pretty straightforward
Other
DorimanX has included scripts in his kernel that can optimize the phone by during certain conditions(time) or they can be applied straight away. The settings should be well explained anyway or straightforward.
Cron task main switch
Enable this to enable all set tasks. You need to enable this otherwise the set tasks will not be done!
My Recommendation: I don't personally enable Cron. Tick the setting if you need this function
Cron task main switch
Press this to test if the Cron task service is online or not. If the service is offline and you've enabled cron, the your ROM needs to be updated. (Busybox out of date)
Cron reset
Press this button to reset the scripts and jobs from kernel and to refresh the configuration. This will clear all your custom changes.
Tweaks
Cortexbrain is a script created by DorimanX that can manipulate many kernel settings based on chosen Stweaks profiles and settings and on screen state. It is so useful that the kernel enables it as default.
Cortexbrain-Background-Process
Enables or Disables the Cortexbrain background process.
Default: Enabled
My Recommendation: Leave it to enabled!
Check Background-Process
Checkes whether the Cortexbrain background process is running or not.
Android logger control
Controls what you can see in android logcat.
Default: AUTO
My Recommendation: Leave it to AUTO!
Modules will covered in advanced guide
Profiles
Here is the menu you want to manage all of the custom profiles available on stweaks
Profile Check:
Checks what profile you are currently running. By default, dorimanX kernel uses the default profile, and all changes will be saved there.
Profiles:
Include:
- Extreme battery
- Battery
- Default (Default)
- Performance
- Extreme Performance
I don't recommend uses the other profiles since they are outdated or can be further optimized.
Backup or Restore
This section allows users to backup and restore the settings in stweaks. It will take approximately 30secs for stweaks to restore user settings. The app will restart and the values should all be restored.
Settings Backup
Press this button to backup your stweaks settings. The settings will be saved in the internal sd card on your phone and will be called default.profile.backup. You can open this file in notepad or wordpad to edit settings externally
Settings Restore
Press this button to restore your stweaks settings. Read the description of the section about how long to wait and app behavior.
Dualboot
This section allow you to reboot your phone in several ways. DorimanX kernel supports dualbooting, and you can boot into 2 different roms during the boot process or via app. In order to boot into 2nd rom, the 2nd rom needs to be installed first. To install second rom, go into recovery and dualboot settings. The buttongs should be straightforward here
Bug-Report
Allows users to report any stweak/kernel specific bugs. Pressing this button will create a log file on your internal sd card which can be used to diagnose any kernel problems.
Partitition Status
Use this button to check your phone's partitions for errors (data, system, cache, efs and preload). This will NOT fix any errors, it will just check. To fix, backup your files with a backup app or making a nandroid backup (backup via recovery), then press the data and cache fix button located in the OTHER tab. USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK SOME DATA MAY BE LOST DURING THE FIXING PROCESS! If there's any broken apps, reinstall them. If you get bootloop, reinstall rom. If you are stuck on boot, wipe phone than install rom. If it says your partitions are CLEAN, your partitions should have no errors. Usually if your partitions has errors, the stock browser will pop up saying that your partitions need to be fixed.
Kernel-Update
Allows to check of updates. Again this feature doesn't work properly anymore. And so ignore the message saying that there is a newer version of the kernel!
Extras
Gives info about your phone. That's about it!
For now, I will be taking a break. Wait to tomorrow for more info!

The following settings only apply to my personal dorimanx builds
Other
TCP algorithm
Congestion control strategies (or algorithms) are used by TCP, the data transmission protocol used by many Internet applications. The main goal of a TCP algorithm is to avoid sending more data than the network is capable of transmitting, that is, to avoid causing network congestion. Different algorithms respond differently to network loads, but they are all based on the same principle of avoiding network congestion.
This setting allows you to choose what TCP algorithm should be used for internet transmission. Changing this will result in changes to latency and download speeds (differences are marginal or hard to measure).
My Recommendation: Use Westwood or Cubic as they are the most reliable and best for performance.

Troubleshooting
This is the troubleshooting section of the guide. It is important that you read this first before blaming anyone else. Remember that in XDA, we are here to help each other.
Phone doesn't boot?
There may be a few cases where after you flash dorimanX kernel, your phone will fail to boot. This is quite a broad problem which has many aspects that may have caused this to occur. The common mistake is people do not read before they flash. THAT IS FINE, EVERYONE HAS TO START SOMEWHERE. Simply read the post regarding to kernel versions, download the correct version, put it on your phone, then flash the kernel.
If that doesn't work, we can narrow the problem down to the file you've downloaded or the custom recovery. There is chance that the kernel zip you've downloaded is corrupted. If that's the case, download it again. If you have trouble installing a kernel on your phone, flash a kernel .tar file via ODIN. Need a .tar file, have a look at my guide here:
Stweaks doesn't save my settings
Stweaks has safety features that safeguard your phone from any damage, especially from overvolting and overclocking. Because of this, the values will reset to defaults. As frustrating as it is, this is the only way for keeping your phone from its death. There are some cases where Stweaks doesn't even save your settings, this is usually because of the app it misbehaving (aka glitching) or it's because of permission issues. If you face this problem, try reflashing the kernel. Reboot your phone and see if it's working properly. If not, you may have issues with the permissions given to stweaks. Check if you've given root access to stweaks, without root, stweaks is useless.
After installing dorimanX kernel, my battery life has been horrible
If you face battery problems after installing dorimanX kernel, you can revert to a previous backup of your rom and kernel or flash a different kernel. Kernel developers don't intend to make kernels that use a lot of battery life, in fact, it's the opposite. Most issues regarding to battery life is usually caused by the kernel not being able to determine the new setup environment. Give your phone a few charge cycles before you make your judgement! Battery life is usually affected by the combination of both ROM + Kernel, so the combination is very important if you consider battery life!
My phone freezes when screen is off/Freezes when screen switches on
Also known as Sleep Of Death (or SOD), this can occur when a value changed regarding to the CPU or GPU is changed to unstable values. This issue commonly occurs when you undervolt your CPU too low, causing the CPU to be unstable. In a event such as this, force your phone to reboot by removing and re-inserting your phone's battery. After that, Stweaks would have already reset to defaults, removing any further instabilities. If you still consider changing those values, try reduce the amount of the value you are changing.
My phone reports that there is 16 CPU steps. Shouldn't there be less
I won't go too technical in this, but in simple, DorimanX include more than the required CPU frequency steps to allow CPU frequencies to scale efficiently. By samsung default, there is 5 CPU steps. The advantages of having 16 steps is that CPU scaling will be more efficient as the frequencies don't scale up or down too frequently as middle frequencies are used. Also, this allows the user to have more control over the overclocking and voltage capabilities over the CPU. You cannot change the number of steps unless you change the CPU governor to darkness.
Phone is laggy on boot up
Isn't it always the case that your phone is laggy when you first boot up your phone? Your phone needs to load all of the services and startup apps before you can fully use your phone. Give your phone a little patience then enjoy your new experience.
My Setup
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100
DorimanX kernel version: 10.44 v008
Max CPU frequency: 1200mhz
Min CPU frequency: 200mhz
Undervolting: -20mV for each step
Awake CPU gov: HYPER
Sleep CPU gov: Ondemand
I/O scheduler: SIO

Credits List
- DorimanX (the master behind DorimanX kernel)
- Cybernetus (for providing the last real DorimanX kernel for i9100 users)
- Computoncio for also providing i9100 users dorimanx builds
- Other XDA members that I haven't listed

Good thread, will be very useful to "new" i9100 survivors who's looking for a way to tame one of best custom kernels around..
Just a suggestion, you might want to add informations about CPU Group limitation/compatibility related to OV/UV, as one setting wont fit all..
And also there is no safe voltage guidelines for each groups yet, just incase you wanna go there

@gsstudios
I recomand u to try to sec cpu thread shold (boost up) higher at 1000 mhz and 1.2 ghz ?
Why ?
I'm using my phone with maximium freq 800 mhz. And it is still smooth and fast. Even in game in which i normally had big heat up and batt drain is smooth. Phone is only laggy when mediascanner is running or app is installing. I'm olso using Live Wall Paper.
And why higher boost up not maximum freq 800 mhz ?
Because if u open app like Asphalt and Real Racing or Facebook [emoji14] phone will go to higher frequences but only when it is important. And imoprtant doesnt mean scrolling through app drawer

[DISCONTINUED] SKZ Custom Kernel for Dirty Unicorns o8x [1890KHz CPU/320MHz GPU]

Here's a custom kernel for you all to try out. It should work with the Dirty Unicorns ROM. Not tested with other ROM's.

NOTICE: This kernel can be overclocked over the standard Touchpad voltage regulator settings. It may or may not be stable for your particular Touchpad. I am not responsible in any way for anything that occurs as a result of your use of this kernel. You agree that by flashing this kernel, you are doing so with a full understanding that you assume full liability for any and all issues that may arise from doing so.
Click to expand...

This kernel must be flashed from recovery (DO NOT USE TP TOOLKIT!) No need to clear caches, format system, or any other preparation. Flash and boot. I highly recommend Kernel Adiutor for detailed and granular control of settings. If you don't like it, recover by reflashing your base DU ROM.
Here's a few facts:
CPU Overclockable to 1890KHz
Level 2 frequency boost to 1890KHz
Stepped 2D & 3D GPU OC up to 267 MHz and 320 Mhz, respectively
Additional governors and schedulers
Use Kernel Adiutor for tuneable parameters in the kernel
READ HERE FOR INFORMATION ABOUT GOVERNORS AND SCHEDULERS: Guide Link
NOTE!: The kernel has stability up to 1836 KHz, so if you decide to try the higher frequencies or change the cpu voltages, be sure and UNSET THE 'APPLY AT BOOT' option in your kernel tuner app. If your tablet can't handle the higher frequencies or voltages, it will either freeze or reboot. If it freezes, you will have to do a hard boot (hold power and HOME key simultaneously until it reboots). It should revert back to the default frequency of 1512 KHz max, 384 KHz min., but if it doesn't, Kernel Adiutor (KA) has a delay in setting the options. Get into KA as soon as you can after it reboots and set the CPU options to a stable setting.
Download links. No system/full wipes or cache clearing required.

- Added hyper governor (based on conservative with some smartass features)
-> 05DEC16 Initial upload
- CPU Overclock to 1836 MHz
- L2 OC to 1836 MHz
- 2D GPU OC to 228 MHz
- 3D GPU OC to 320 MHz
- Add Smartmax_EPS governor

But it will need root to tweak the kernel, by far, No Current Root method for 8.1.0 on TP. Do this DR ROM has built-in root?

It's not a ROM, it's a kernel. It will, however, allow you to permanently root the DU ROM with supersu 2.82

In the latest DU build, flintman incorporates most of my kernel commits except the cpu/gpu overclocks and the scheduler and governor additions. As a result, the stock kernel is pretty much the same as SKZ.
Nothing left to offer. It's been a good run, but it's time to quit.
Bye.
