Apolo 4.11 (Sammy only)
- zzmoove updated to 0.7d
- Backup and restore Android_secure fixed
Apolo 5.0 & 6.0 (AOSP Beta Version)
Branch 5.x only for AOSP 4.2.2 (CWM & TWRP)
Branch 6.x only for AOSP 4.3 (CWM & TWRP) This ROMS (4.3) have some bugs right now
Branch 4.x only for Sammy ROMS
- Base: smdk4412 by cyanogenmod
- Same tweaks as Apolo JB 4.x
- zzmoove updated to 0.7d
- Backup and Restore of Android_secure solved (thx dorimanx)
- Fully compatible with Apolo Configurator
In 4.3, if after restoring (only the first time), it doesn't boot (stuck in samsung logo), power off completely the S2 and then power it on. It should boot normally.
Apolo 4.10 (Sammy ROMS)
- Added brightness curve interface (credits to gokhanmoral) It will be necessary to use new Apolo Configurator 4.0 to configure the brightness curve (available in Google Play).
- Exfat support in kernel and recoverys (CWM and TWRP)
- TWRP recovery updated to 2.6.1 (thx to the TWRP team)
- zzmoove updated to version 0.7c.(thx ZaneZam)

- zzmoove updated to 0.6 and tweaked thx ZaneZam
- sio scheduler updated
- su, supersu updated
- Revert USB charging values to 450 mA by default (safety measure). Added charging interface, so since Apolo configurator 3.8b you will be able to change it.

Features:
This kernel is mainly based in hardcore work (thank you to Hardcore 
for his great contributions). I have added undervolting (kind of phenomenal) and some additional features.
for his great contributions). I have added undervolting (kind of phenomenal) and some additional features.
- CWM and TWRP recovery (thanks to Jeboo).
- No logs, no extra debugging
- install su, supersu. Support init.d and cifs
- MDNIE Sharpness by Hardcore
- Ondemand Tweaked by Hardcore
- Added some governors (specially tweaked slp and zzmoove)
- Scheduler changing enabled
- BLN enable (Since Apolo 4.5 BLNWW too)
- CRT-OFF enable
- Effective Underclock (max frequency limited)
- UV Interface for ARM (you can change voltages in ARM with external aplications)
- Kernel Includes frandom for using with CrossBreeder (I really recomend it, Thx idcrisis)
- No Overclock and no different CPU-GPU steps from stock
Update Supersu (only sammy kernel)
Choose normalupdate (not the other with CWM/TWRP). In case you chose the wrong option, you'll have a bootloop. Read the bootloop section in this OP to recover your system.
Undervolting
There are some Apolo versions depending on the UV used:
- Light (stock voltages)
- Regular (-50mV in ARM, internals)
- Extreme (3 versions, you can try to see what versión is better for your battery life): in JB system chooses among the different steps available inside the kernel (in internal and ARM), so depending what step is chosen, final voltages applied are different.
Regular and extreme has -50mv UV in GPU (others UV like bus, memory, video controller too). Light has stock voltages in GPU
I recommend you try regular version first. If there are no problems in two days (reboots or frozen screens) you can try extreme V0.
System changes voltages in some devices (new in JB). Android chooses among voltages included in kernel (8 steps in every frequency). I recommend not to change them in extrem versions.
More information and Voltages values:
Depending on the device, system changes voltages (in JB), choosing among voltages defined in the kernel source. It seems, system tries to choose the ideal ones for every device (taking into consideration internal and ARM voltages).
For each frequency, there are 8 posible voltages in the code (I call them steps). In ICS, system always chose 4th step for every frequency, but in JB it doesn't sometimes.
It happends with ARM voltages (you can see them in the configurator) and with internal voltages, so there are many possibilities
You can see ARM and Internal voltages in this pdf (it is in Spanish but I think you can understand it) :
So, it is not strange that configurator shows different values in two different devices with the same Apolo version. It simple, system has chosen different voltages steps. I recommend you don't pay too much attention to this, it is not important, indeed system try to be stable choosing different values.
Tips
- TWRP and CWM Backups are not compatibles between them, so you need the suitable version to restore your backups.
- I recommend OBackup. Great application for making backups in Android itself (support TWRP and CWM).
- Not always less voltages means better battery life, it depends on your device. The only way is testing every version and please start with Regular or Light version
- Deep Sleep problems sometimes is caused by undervolting. If your system doesn't enter in deep sleep and it is not because of any application , install regular or light version.
- It is not the same, lower ARM voltages with an external APP (for example Apolo Configurator) and change Apolo version (V2,V1,V0 or regular) because there are more voltajes involved (not only ARM)
- Disable MDNIE Sharpness in TWRP version : create a file in "/data" named ".disable_mdnie" and reboot.
- Enable logs in TWRP version: create a file in "/data" named ".enable_logs" and reboot.
- If you want to turn off the leds always (when you touch tactile buttons), you have to use Apolo Configurator, otherwise (if you use only Samsung settings) your leds will turn on when you turn on the screen.
- If your system doesn't boot due to wrong Voltages, flash this in recovery : download zip
- Acess to internal sd in TWRP recovery :
(Up a level )
then go to
"emmc"
that's your internal sd
- Recommended wipe Cache and Dalvik after changing any kernel (it is not mandatory but it is a good custom)
- To increase sound volume use mods like Viper or appications like Alsa Mixer or Vodoo louder in play store
Bugs
- Bootloops: it doesn't happend very often but it can happend in JB if there is something corrupt in partitions. Posible solutions:
1) Try to enter to recovery. Press vol up, Home button and Power button at the same time until the device enters into recovery (system can restart 2 or 3 times, but don't release buttons). Then wipe cache and dalvik and reboot.2a) if 1) didn't work, enter into download mode and flash light TWRP version if you had CWM. Wipe cache and Dalvik and reinstall CWM if you wish.2b) if TWRP didn't work or you had TWRP version already, flash last PhilZ kernel (thx to Phil3759), enter into Philz recovery and wipe cache and Dalvik. Then reinstall Apolo.3) if nothing worked, try to reinstall your ROM without wipe data and wipe cache and Dalvik4) wipe data (you will loose all your application and configurations)5) reinstall with odin stock ROM WITH repartition (pit file). Then install Apolo and reinstall your custom ROM.
- Sometimes when you reboot your device, your battery seems to drop a lot (it is not real).
To recover your old battery percentage, plug in your device and reboot into recovery. Check your battery level in the recovery, if it is correct, reboot (solved).
If it is not, reboot into recovery again (in CWM advanced - reboot into recovery, in TWRP reboot - recovery). It should be solved.
This issue never happens if you reboot your device while is charging, so I recommend you plug in your device before rebooting (if you can do it)
If you can't plug in your device, don't reboot if you can avoid it
Installation
- Use a kernel cleaning script before installing (recomended Gs2KernelWipe thanks to hawkerpaul)
- .zip : install in custom recovery
- .tar : install in PC with odin (windows) or heimdall (linux)
Apolo Configurator free in Google Play: download
I've developed a multilanguage application (Spanish, English, Italian, Catalan, Gallego and Russian).You can change governor and scheduler, set ARM undervolting, configure BLN, BLNWW and S2W and set brightness curve:
I extremely recommend you read the Apolo Configurator Manual : Apolo Configurator Manual
