I had problem with wi-fi with both 7.0 and 7.1 so now on 5.86 which works with out any issue..(Connecting to 2.4Ghz)

problem is with 13,14 channels! maybe also 12

if router transmit at this channels, then we cant connect.

i need to tune wifi driver to allow such channels.

stop posting. about wifi, i have no more time reading same posts all day.

well it apprently based on my experience i really feel a slight battery drain with s2w and based for other users that i read...but again i repeat slight :)

oh 9999?i think i will have s7 in that day haha

Yeah I'm noob in this field but there must be something activated what is still on standby and waiting for the slide - apparently that is using battery.

Anyway I have to sent application to Dori about turn it off by default in battery profile :D

I'm on 7.1 and pa 2.18 and not having any issues with Wifi. It shows normal signal strength as well. I just flashed kernel with no wipe and all. Everything is working okay for me. :thumbup: additional info: my router is netgear and it's set on Auto for channels.

Me too, did the normal kernel only flashing, reset ET, restore ET, and voila no problem. Using Cisco AP @ dual channel but connected at 5Ghz. Region set to Japan. :good:
And battery life is soooo CRAZY! I played 3D game for nearly 1 hour with only 13% drop?

The only problem is my own problem about memory and slowdown. Its my fault, I disabled the taskman in favor of System Tuner Pro. But sometimes I forgot to check the free RAM till all laggy, solved by kill-all. :p No memleaks whatsoever. :highfive:

FYI, my channel is 6, it works from office but does not from home. Where as 5.86 works fine.
Sorry about the rant of wifi :), that's fine I can live with current setup. Thank you.
 
anyone please? and often WiFi stop working, i gotta restart it, heard there was a solution, but on which page..?

Maybe you could try to re-set your router? Change the region or update the router's firmware?
I got same problem before, but with my laptop. Solved by updating my router's firmware. Try it... ;)

your latest mali kernel 7.1 runs much smoother on bajee's android 4.1.2 RootBOX 2.9
i love the performance, and smoothness of this combination,
no issues so far even wifi works,
really really impressed for this kernel, :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

thanks.. love it...
i want to touch and scroll my phone all the time, hahaha, i am addicted to the smoothness, animation, responsiveness, :)

For all those having wifi problems it may be just a case of factory resetting your router. I have had many problems with loss of wifi on various channels and configurations following flashing Dori and RR zip files. I would lose connectivity on all wireless devices in my house.

It was a case of resetting the router and starting again. Sometimes we just have to be a bit more proactive instead of ranting and posting the same old posts.

Dori, the devs and mods do a great job so cut them some slack and accept there are going to be a few teething problems. Without them we would be using stock kernels and roms.

I connect to my router on channel 13 and don't have any problem.

and kernel is 5.XX ?

if yes, then it's should work.

problem is with 7.X JB-MALI


P.S
Good new i have traced back 700 commits and found the USB tether broken CODE!
now it's working...

i will try to remove broken commits from source and see if 5.87 / 7.1 will work :)


UPDATE!

USB tether BUG EXTERMINATED :)

on both kernels :)

BUG found 21 pages back!

Long time since i used to use "battery" preset in cwm, but it lose the smoothness and finding the right setup via extweaks made me headache so i stick with default + UV, but my battery drains a lot faster, duh.

In 7.0 + PA2.18 i'm curious about new mali jb driver, so i tried "battery" preset available in extweaks with -50mV cpu uv, vga 62/100/160/200 800/850/900/950mV, no s2w, no bln; I was surprised with the results, now i get a decent battery life + no slow down, very smooth performance. Also i uninstalled my task manager, no lag/temporal freeze/slow down too like before!!! 4 thumbs up to DORI!!! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Using Cm10 latest nightly with dorimanx kernel 7.1!

Settings extreme proformance!

Everything is very smooth!
Battery not so bad either!

1 problem, don't know if it's the rom or the kernel!

WIFI is very bad! It keeps disconnecting! And when I play a video on YouTube, it keeps stop buffering, even with downloads I download!

Anybody got a idea what it is?
Maybe a wrong settings in extweak? The ROM?
The Kernel?

Thx

I recently switched from Siyah to Droimanx. Since i've used Siyah I had no problems with battery life and AOKP build 3/4. After installing AOKP BDay edition and flashing Dorimanx B3/B4/7.1 battery life is worse than stock kernel.
With Syiah I was able to get like 3-3.5 hours of screentime, on Dorimanx I loose about 1% in 7-10 minutes of browsing texting.
Kernel/ROM was installed after a full wipe (except sdcard).

    Dorimanx Kernel for SGII-I9100
    Supporting 5 ROM Platforms!

    Dori-Power.jpg


    My kernel was based on SiyahKernel 4.0 long time ago in other realty,
    Kernel Tree is 3.12.rc6-R101, + Samsung JB updates + my tweaks and lots of tuning!


    Thank you Gokhanmoral for your great work in the past!


    Warning!!!

    Do not install this kernel on any Android version lower than 4.1.Y
    Do a Nandroid Backup of your ROM before first try it! just in case
    Constant OC will drain more battery! use low speeds on screen off! min 200/100 max 800
    CPU will shutdown in case of over-volt or under-volt so be careful
    I'm no responsible for any hardware damage or system corruption that can happen after using this kernel,
    you are using this kernel from your own will and accept any responsibility by using it.
    If you install this kernel your warranty will be void!


    Of course you can be relaxed, I'm trying every release on my phone several hours before of release it so,
    if something wrong, i will get the damage first, you get a tested and tuned working kernel...

    • Report of bugs after test it personally and including the proper log (Please refer to the Voku's guide of How to report bugs for further information about logs.)
    • Feedback that could genuinely helps to the development of the kernel, for example tests of a new feature including a complete explanation, documentation and results.
    • Requests of new features for the next versions of the kernel with the proper explanation of why you expect to see it and why do you think that will be an improve to the kernel.

    « Which kind of posts are not allowed here and belongs only to the discussion thread?

    • General discussion about settings of the kernel, which include: Governors, schedulers, I/O, dual-boot, etc.

    • Deep sleep issues. Mostly of this issues are not kernel dependent, the rogue apps cause wakelocks and other weird behavior so, the first suggestion will be go to the BBS (Better Battery Stats) thread, install the app, and drop the log in there but as complement you can expose your issue here.

    Kernel 5.84


    *VOKU and me, we restored function that check DATA + CACHE file system before boot, for errors and damaged blocks and more.
    it's can be requested for one time run by user via extweaks misc tab.
    DO NAN DROID BACKUP VIA RECOVERY BEFORE ANY ATTEMPT TO USE IT! (if your phone will not boot, and you don't have backup, don't blame me for that)
    If your data has allot of corrupted files. then first boot with this kernel will take longer! do not panic. let it work.
    no more than 10MIN, if still no boot, then you need to restore your nand backup and never use this function!
    your hardware is not ready for DATA partition clean up. forget it.
    you will get new file /log-data and /log-cache
    after boot you can check if you had any errors in data or cache.
    To activate just "push the ATOMIC button :)" or push again to ABORT!
    function will work after reboot, and never again, till requested by user.
    If you do nan droid backup and then restore it, you restore all the errors and junk with it. (just for the info)



    Goals for next builds:

    • Debug and find more code errors! (always something new)
    • Add cool features and tweaks
    • Extend battery life.
    • Boost performance.

    « Installation

    • Download the file
    • Place it on your SD card
    • Reboot into recovery
    • Flash the file
    • Reboot

    In case of a new installation on a non rooted or non recovery device:

    You can Download ODIN 3.04 attached to page.

    • Reboot to Download mode (Hold Power + Home + Vol down, then vol up when you see the download menu)
    • Connect USB, wait until the drivers be installed
    • Install kernel via ODIN, choosing the option PDA, search for the file that you downloaded and push start
    • If all going fine the phone will reboot and you done

    GESTURES!

    Here you can download the app to set the gesture_set.sh script to make your own gestures.


    *Added gestures script that connected with cortex and can be managed by user and system in harmony! :)

    The script is located at /data/gestures_set.sh do not move it, if you have already any gestures scripts in init.d delete them and move your custom stuff to this script.

    It will work with the screen on, and be shut on screen off, to get rid of one more loop that wait forever, we dont need it on screen off! So i give you 5 preconfigured gestures! max supported is 10! max finger touches supported also 10.

    Script will be copied to data if not exist on boot, if exist then, nothing. You can shut this function in STweaks or restore to default gestures if you mess with it :)

    On restore you will get backup of your current running file at /data/gestures_set.sh.bkp + gesture_set.sh.sec just in case.

    This is long INFO post from real chip designer that help to create CPU/GPU and other chips for the living for 14 years now, so respect :)

    He sent me PM, for now he cant post that by him self.

    Vikas is monitoring our thread and want to say his professional stand about UV/OV and why it's works for some and why not for others.

    ==================
    I am calling Vikas(vikas.mishra) to the speech stand :)


    Hello people.

    Let me introduce myself - my name is Vikas Mishra and I am a chip designer by profession. .
    I have worked on critical parts of design of TI OMAP4, OMAP5, Nvidia Tegra 3 etc and have been doing this for the last 14 years.
    Of late - I have seen a lot of folks posting BUGS about undervolting of the GPU/CPU.
    I think I can explain what are the possible issues with undervolting/overclocking in a laymans language.

    It is a little long winded but I think the length is needed for providing the appropriate context.

    * What is inside your Cellphone

    Your cellphone is an amazing device. It is a full fledged computer
    that fits into your pocket. They have all the standard components
    that a computer has - except that they are all usually soldered on
    the motherboard directly and are not meant to be user-servicable.

    The chief components inside your cellphone are
    1. Application Processor (AP)- this is the heart of a modern
    cellphone. These are manufactured by many companies - the main
    ones are Qualcomm, Nvidia, Samsung and Apple. The other not so
    well known ones are made by Texas Instruments, ST Ericsson,
    Marvell and Broadcom.

    A modern AP has logic to control the camera and process the image
    that it generates, to do video encoding (video recording) and
    video decoding (movie watching), Audio processor etc. in addition
    to the well known CPU and GPU.

    2. Power Management Controller - This is the chip that is
    responsible for generating and regulating the voltages that are
    used by all the components on the board.

    3. DRAM - not very different from the DRAM found on a PC (except
    that it is lower voltage)

    4. Flash - for storage

    5. Touchscreen controller

    6. Logic for microphone, speaker

    7. Battery

    One of the most complex piece of circuitry on the phone is the AP
    and the power management controller.


    * Circuit Basics

    A modern AP has millions of circuit units called (Flip
    Flops). These flip flops have two parameters associated with them
    called Setup time and Hold time. More details on what a flip flop
    can be found on the wikipedia at
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flip-flop_(electronics) . This is a
    nice bit of bedside reading if you are interested. :)

    A setup time roughly indicates what frequency you can run a design
    or an AP at before it becomes unstable.

    A hold time roughly indicates the maximum voltage till which a
    design is stable.

    A fully technical analysis of what is involved in these timing
    parameters requires a degree in electrical engineering but in broad
    terms the problem is described below.

    Chip designers diligently ensure that all of the millions of the
    flip flops in a chip meet the setup and hold time across a broad
    range of voltages and silicon parameters. They do a pessimistic
    analysis to ensure that a chip will run reliably across a wide
    range of voltage/frequency combinations.

    However, contrary to the popular belief, chips vary widely in their
    silicon parameters. Even chips on a the same wafer and different
    flip-flops within the same chip can have widely different silicon
    parameters. This is why what works on one particular chip will not
    work on the other chip.

    Your silicon manufacturer provides a range of voltages and
    frequencies across which the device can work reliably. The phone
    manufacturer will further narrow down the range depending on the
    other components they choose within the phone board.

    * How does voltage affect the design

    Reducing voltage makes the design slower and increasing voltage
    makes the design faster.

    So can I keep on increasing the voltage for ever and make the
    circuit faster and faster. The answer is no - a point will come when
    the circuit will become unreliable. This becomes unreliable because
    the "hold time" of one or more of the flops will start
    violating.

    As you reduce the voltage of the design, the circuit will start
    becoming slower. However typically it will continue to work till at
    apoint it starts failing - this failure occurs due to violation of
    "setup time" of one or more flops in the design.

    So what happens when the setup time or the hold time of a design
    fails - the answer is that it is unpredictable. Meaning suddenly if
    you ask the processor what is the value of 2+2, the answer it will
    provide could be unreliable - in some cases it could be 3, in some
    cases it could be 4 in some cases it could be -2349783297 (a random number).

    I am of course oversimplifying but I hope you get the picture.

    * How does undervolting affect your phone processor

    The reason undervolting is so appealing to people because they
    thing that undervolting will save power and improve battery
    life. While this is true in theory, in practice there is a caveat.

    It will reduce the power of the chip, but the power consumed by the
    phone as a whole will not improve. In some cases in fact it can
    deteriorate. Let me explain.

    The most power hungry part in the phone is not the AP - it is the
    LCD screen. All of these screens consume a ton of power. So even
    though your AP is now consuming lesser power, the overall impact to
    the phone as a whole is not that much.

    If you accompany undervolting with a frequency reduction (which you
    should), the total time taken for doing a web page rendering (for
    example) would increase. During this time the screen is on and it
    has more than compensated for the power that you saved in the
    AP.

    You could of course come up with examples where this wouldn't
    happen - but on a whole, IMHO, you should leave the voltage of the
    AP/GPU/CPU to the guys who know the system best - the guys who
    designed the chip and people who manufactured it.

    * How does overvolting/overclocking affect your phone processor

    If you want that last drop of performance from your phone and you
    over clock it, at a point some of the design flops will start
    violating the hold time and the design will stop working reliably.

    Again, in some anecdotal cases this would work - but this is not a
    reliable means/mode of working. Just because your friend's or your
    first cousin's girlfriend's phone works - doesn't mean yours will
    work as well.

    * What are the user observable impacts of undervolting/overclocking?

    It is hard to say - simply because there are so many of flops in
    the design.

    In some cases - you wouldn't see anything wrong with the phone
    until one day you do. In some cases it will result in a SOD
    immediately. In some cases it will result in your phone not waking
    up reliably.

    IMHO the risks of issues with undervolting/overclocking far
    outweighthe potential gains you may get out of it. Usually there
    is no lasting damage to the phone/AP if you overlock/undervolt but
    it is possible to do it. For example, You run the phone at such a
    high frequency that the chip temperature becomes more than what it
    was designed for and the Silicon just fails.

    So "Just say No" :). Don't overclock or undervolt your phone -
    leave it to the guys who really understand what they are doing.

    Thanks,
    Vikas

    News update!!!

    Kernels 8.14 + 9.14 ONLINE!

    Kernel is STABLE with good performance + good battery, we worked very hard on this one. (Me and Voku!)


    Change Log:

    *Voku updated Interactive CPU gov and enabled it. (need to test!)
    *Voku updated/Ported many system code and ROW I/O sched tuning.
    *Voku Ported and Tuned and reconstructed new CPU HOTPLUG code,
    it's name is Inteli Hotplug, originally made by Faux123 for his OMAP device.
    this new driver will help to save more power and give us nice performance.
    *Voku Ported 3.0.72+73 Main Stream patch's.
    *Voku Tuned cortex and profiles to mach new drivers.
    *Updated to latest Linaro 13.03 kernel builder.
    *Added new EDS module to allow using EDS paid/lite app to encrypt data on your device, module can be loaded via app or via STweaks.
    *Allowed to use 1450mV for 520Mhz GPU freq.
    *Equalized last CPU chip Voltage table (number 1) to have same CPU voltage as others!
    We have 4 different CPU chips all over the world in same device! now all will have same voltage, this will allow higher OC and better battery save for all.
    *Added +25mv to 1500mhz and 1600mhz for all chips. to give more stability.
    *Updated many CORE and MEM code from 3.9.y kernel.
    *Updated many SYSTEM code from 3.9.y kernel.
    *Updated many CPU and SMP code from 3.9.y kernel.
    *Added auto read ahead tweak, based on sdcard size!
    *Updated INIT boot from latest CM-Kernel for 10.1 based ROMS.
    *Cleaned old standard hotplug settings and script code.
    *Added some STweaks better descriptions in BLN.
    *Limited battery charge mA to 650mA, we cant get more any way, hardware limit! no way to have MORE, so 700mA was actually 650,
    and we can have MIN of 450mA so no need to ask to set lower, it's will not work.

    More can be seen in GIT, for all that love to dig deep :)

    Have fun, and Report = good debug info!

    Thanks!

    do not REPLY to this POST!

    This Kernel is A MAJOR update! i have never done such big update before!
    We need to test all we can.

    Change Log: (i cant write all, it's too much! see gits)

    *Voku ported new CPU GOV = ZZMOOVE it's good gov with HOTPLUG ability's and smart cpu management on sleep and wake.
    for now no controls for it in STweaks, but you can select it.
    *Voku ported new Ultra KSM code from 3.9.Y kernel, it's still in tests, we will see what good we can get from it, read google what is KSM (shared memory control with many apps)
    *Voku tuned the Dynamic CPU freq on touch, seems to work good.
    *Voku ported kernel patch 3.0.74-76 from main stream.
    *Voku ported System code for ARM CPU and system.
    *Voku tuned profiles for interactive GOV and other stuff.
    *Till we can fix slide2wake to be off in call, it's OFF by default in all profiles.
    *Voku ported good patch for Interactive CPU GOV. we need extensive testing.
    *Voku ported updates for ROW and NOOP I/O scheds.
    *I have made FULL sync of all new code for RAM from 3.9.y Kernel. we have all :)
    *I have ported major update to filesystem + kernel main code + lib, from 3.9.y branch. (it's HUGE update!)
    *We have fixed some small bugs in scripts.
    *Voku added function to add DATE and TIME to kernel LOGO on each kernel release! that is very COOL :)
    done by auto on kernel build.

    have fun, report and test all you can,

    RAM performance is now X2 and cpu power is awesome!
    battery is holding longer!

    it's for now great kernel, but need more time to know that this is STABLE release.

    P.S
    if you like my hard work, buy me a beer :) (my beer account is empty :()

    Thanks for waiting :)

    I hope you READY to see the PICKS :)

    HTC ONE X in the TRASH :)
