Kernel: G3MOD 1.4 Ultimate

OC and governors: Screen on - 200 - 800 ondemand, screen off - 200-400 SavagedZen (when phone frozen i had 200-400 ondemand on screen off)

UV (random, i didn't change anything)

:)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
what means "random"? you have uv´d or not?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] guziolek91:
I meant, i do not have uv ;)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] moikop:
UV = UnderVolting. He's asking if you've changed the Undervolting settings or not (with SetCPU or other app) :P
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Digibonez:
@Dharam I think I've tracked down my problem a bit.

Both G3MOD Kernel and G3MOD rom are working perfect on their own. Problems start only after you flash G3MOD OC kernel over G3MOD rom.

The problem seems to be that everything that is loaded into the memory, just stays there. Even when it is not in use anymore and closed. After a while most of your free memory is gone with all the side effects related to that.

One of the effects is, that when you boot, all the libraries, drivers, binaries, ... that are loaded, stay resident into memory. Even if they are not needed anymore. When the ram memory is full, your data got corrupted because of insufficient space to operate. The corrupted data is deleted by the system to prevent further malfunctioning (1 theory) or not recognized by the system anymore (2nd theory). Among the deleted data are maybe the 0k bugfix and battery saving optimalisations (in case of theory 1) or the internal memory is filled with corrupted data (in case of theory 2) (less likely but possible as at least 1 program I once installed is still there. Even after reflashing with Odin?? They are not included in your rom.) Also because of the decrease in free ram, more read/write operations are needed which in turn results in an increase of battery usage.

When I keep on freeing ram manually with task manager regularly, the phone continues to work smoothly and there is no problem until I reboot. If not, I see a significant increase in ram usage with every program I start and finally lagging, freezes, ... and all the other problems related to that.

Hope this can help you to track down the final problem. Thank you so much for your hard work and all the efforts you do to help people like me with their problems.

Got a own bootlogo of the kernel after the GT-I5800 Screen...making video now :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Benjamin_L:
Are the post 1.4 updates going to have zip files again because everybody has CWM now?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
each kernel that i will release, i will try an update.zip...if it flashes without problems, then sure...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
Haha guess what i was thinking when u wrote that the second part of the bootlogo is displayed by the kernel...

BootLogo and Progress Bar TEST.tar (6.4 MB)

http://www.multiupload.com/MMBBLYRO3T​
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] fuxmen:
Like i sad, for me savagedZen not working on every version. From Performance to Extreme. I want it soo badly, most of freezes take place on normaly use. Phone just stop responding... Im Try this one one more time now with Ultimate version we will see

edit

Got freeze right now...

It happens when i want to go to home screen from app and click home screen button
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mankokoma:
still several freezes...

Okay, so one more feedback:

Had some freezes without explanation:

Listening to music -> freezing changing Volume. So I had to switch off the voodoo "Map Volume Keys Hack". No problems then anymore with that (still loud at +5db set in voodoo control). For Bass Boosting I use the EQ built in in the MusicPlayer shipped by Kyrillos. That's very okay, Sound is gooooood.

Then some freezes when tapping the Back Key frequently fast...

When I used Fugumod 800 @ 950 MHz (was the max my device allowed with that) I had also several unexplainable freezes there.

So i assume, that my Hardware doesn't get it. Maybe my SD Card is too bad (16 GB class 6, Transcend with which there is no change with the sdcardspeedfix in init.d... whatever I write into the script. It's always reading 6.x and writing 5.x)

Maybe because of that there's a problem with SWAP... Did NOT try to wait very long after the freezes, but it's linux (somehow) and maybe I have to be more patient and it's no freeze but a very looooong laaaaaaag

Now I try to hold your Kernel @800 MHz and see over the day, if that helps.

There is also no difference, if I UV it or not (still -75 @ all FREQ) and SuperCharging or NOT also makes no difference for freeze or not to freeze.

Think that's all for now

Gonna try the new TEST Kernel...

EDIT: Flashed it, works... Is it max 1200 (setCPU shows not higher)? Did you change anything else than the progress bar?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] guziolek91:
I was using G3MOD v1.4 Ultimate, but no matter what governors i set my phone is frozing.

Governors: 200-800 ondemand (screen on), 200-400 (SavagedZen or ondemand and even conservative - screen off).

I came back to 1.3.4
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] prem0621:
Can any tell me how much should i undervolt?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] andreapier:
I'm sorry to say this but...

We don't need a progress bar that actually doesn't show the real boot progress...

I mean, when the bar completes the loading the image stays there for some time without changes... And what is even worse is that the booting process takes so much after the progress bar disappears...

In my opinion, you should add the progess bar only if you are able to cover all the booting time, so that samsung logo is not shown, and the progess bar gets completed when the phone is ready to use.

Don't take it as an offence, it's just my 2 cents.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
You can only find out yourself, as each cpu is different...

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
well, i understand your suggestion, but the code for the progress bar is Samsung's and not modified by me...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
So you like the progress bar? given a test kernel if you want to see.. :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
Yeah, looks cool. But i think I'm gonna make you a g3mod logo when back home...

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
nope, higher values means nothing...

i can assure you even marcellusbe can go 1400...

the whole idea is to build a stable kernel... :)

and as i said, this wont work for many phones...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] rudolf895:
actually marcellusbe already did it once, as he mentioned it in lestatious thread..It was for alpha testers only.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] RafayelG:
I was talking about the quadrant score its insane
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
yes, i know....i have got higher quadrant scores with alpha 16...

marcellusbe is GOD of G3 :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] RafayelG:
trying kernel again with your clean ultimate ROM
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] GalaxyDrei:
Really?

And is Fugumod Alpha 16 also stable or are a lot of freezes...

And can you give me the link for alpha 16?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
alpha 16 had even worse problems, the volume keys and power key stops working...

2.4 beta 3 is the best one right now
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] GalaxyDrei:
Hmm, not really great :/

But then I will try yours ;)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ron_gangte:
Do release a test version, please!! :-)

Ummm.. and does the Kernel have SavagedZen Governer? :-)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
sure about the test release, but for the governor you will have to wait..

trying to make stable kernel with OC...

after that i will look for governor :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ron_gangte:
Oh'kay. I am really looking forward to the 1400MHz OC test release. You can take all the time you want for the Governor. :-)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
if you want to test it right now, PM me your dropbox email, i will add you to the testing team, and you can test the kernels over there :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
dharam, if you release co kernel with 1400mhz, please set default max to 800 or 1000, then everyone can install the same kernel and then test how high their phone can go.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
yes i agree, also its still not sure whether i will release 1400MHz...because i am getting similar performance with 1230MHz and the hdclk0 overclocked upto 205MHz...

again i spoke to marcellusbe and he said, that he got artifacts on the screen at hdclk0 at 200MHz..i can go upto 205...so testing with different testers, if 1230+205 is working for most, then i may stop at that also :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:

FS

hello,

congratulations, you are on the right way ! :)

do you plan to integrate support for JFS filesystem in the future ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Darius_AWS:
Is the Undervolting supported ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ron_gangte:
Not yet. :-)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] tucucumelo:
I'll try tonight, probably works fine as always :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Darius_AWS:
Works fine...happy to have 1 Ghz and 1% battery mod, the battery life seems to be good,thanks !
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
Ok, I will wait for it :D
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mankokoma:
But the boot progress does not take longer and Dharam has a kind of advertisement which really is OKAY for all the hard work!

What happens, if you delete bootanimation.zip ? Will try now

BTW keeping @800MHz for me no freezes anymore. Seems to be my hardware :(

But I should be able to live with that - it's still better than 667

EDIT: OOOHHHH, without bootanimation the ugly pulsing SAMSUNG logo shows up... rename NObootanimation.zip back...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
You could put an empty bootanimation.zip

I'm facing the screen off/on freeze issue on 1.4 Ultimate (200-1000Mhz Ondemand, tried with and without screen off profile). Have tried various workarounds mentioned in this thread, but all in vain. It was resolved on 1.3.3, but its back on 1.3.4 as well as 1.4.

Is anyone else facing this issue?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Digibonez:
For those having freezes,etc Can you please check how much ram is free by firing up Task Manager? Especially during the time when the phone starts lagging. Also check please if freeing up more ram memory with the ram manager helps to solve part of your problems.

I am still confused about the fact that charging the phone helps to solve some problems.

Battery drain problem also seems to be fixed by doing ram management manually as described earlier. Drain is now about 1%/h.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ka'cipeder:
hey, i know this has been answered 100 times, but the search tool is useless... i enabled data2sd in g3mod app and partitioned sd with recovery and now i get 0mb free in memory, how to fix this?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mankokoma:
The same - pulsing SAMSUNG logo...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
Then maybe it needs a black image and the control file inside

----------------------------------------

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ron_gangte:
Battery Drain is 1%/hour????!!!!

:confused:

Do You Have The Data Connection On/Off??

And.. What's the manual "RAM Management" that you are talking about?

I'd want a tweak or something to reduce my battery drain.

My battery drains dreadfully fast when the data connection is on.. but when data connection is off, the drain lessens..

I did "calibrate" my battery.. still no help.. :/

Or.. could someone guide me as to how to reduce the battery drain?

Thank You!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Digibonez:
For everything i do with the phone, I launch Task Manager » Ram Manager » Clear ram level 1 en 2.

I disconnected phone this morning 6am and now 1.30pm 91% battery. Data on but almost no sync. Only calling, sms and a few manual syncs for gmail. And regularly checking XDA of course

;-)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mankokoma:
No it's easy:

have to delete/rename the program /system/bin/bootanimation

Then you have at least a black screen after the kernel-animation until the lockscreen/PIN

But the Kernel logo disappears anyhow...

I'm not sure, but I think it's booting faster (subjectively)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
hmmm, you enabled and then partitioned?

it should be the other way around...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mankokoma:
When I changed the kernel from fugumod to g3mod kernel that g3mod.apk did not work for me for app2sd. Strange: All apps were shown in the drawer but they worked without their data (as fresh installed).

So in the end I copied fs.current (as were) from /sdcard/android/data/fugumod/ into /sdcard/android/data/g3mod/

and let the script in /etc/init.d/S01_app2sd (which came with Kyrillos' rom) do it's work...

Then it was like before with fugumod's kernel. This data2sd file (was it named so?) in ...data/g3mod/ didn't function.

The same worked this way in the G3modROM which I installed in between, before Kyrillos' 7 came.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
Who wants to have an OverClocked GPU ?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] kyrillos13:
me :p
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
ok, working on it from today afternoon...looks like it should be possible in some time... :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
If u have battery drain with data connection on and can correct it by clearing memory, it is most likely that u have an app or widget running that is updating its data too often, go check the running apps and widgets settings or uninstall them if u dont need them. I5 is most likely some chat app or a weather/news widget that sucks your battery empty...

Bootlogo change?

I have the v1.32 performance version installed and will be updating soon.I wanted to ask if after flashing v1.4,will the bootlogo change?If yes how can i keep the existing one?

Btw my phone's never run so smoothly!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
bootlogo and bootanimation are completely different things....

bootlogo will be introduced in the future versions...

1.4 doesnt include it....
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] moikop:
Wow, that's great!!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
Guys, i have tried different values of GPU OC, quadrant remains nearly same, but the lags in the graphics test in quadrant have now disappeared.

I'll be trying more stuff before releasing the next version...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] itzik_man:
Dharam - I am on G3MOD + 1.4 extreme_fixed, and it working like a charm.

However, I am on standby (no phone usage) since yesterday night (after installing 1.4) and my battery went from 100% to 83%!

I did all the resets wipe data...etc., and battery still draining even without any phone usage!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
did you also disable data connection?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
I dunno why this trend has come that people are getting battery drain with data connection...there is something wrong going somewhere else, coz i use data connection non stop but never getting the terrible drain what people are mentioning.. :D
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] itzik_man:
Without connection to Data, Wi-Fi or GPS…!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
then i guess there is an app runing and perventing your device going to sleep. use a tool like OS Monitor to find out which app is running wild...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Mohanshbhr:
i cant understand my fon problem, i full charge my fon and battery drains from 100 to 0 within 15 minuts with data connection on , i calibrated barttery 4 days ago, battery goes 100 to 85 very fast and suddenly switch off between 70 to 80 , i m on 1.4 ultimate
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Mohanshbhr:
Again my fon switched of at 74% of battery during 3g data on.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
sounds strange, did you leave the phone connected in downloadmode for a while? this could have killed your battery.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] itzik_man:
Dharam - In term of functionality this ROM & Kernel are in line with the best around this forum but as an inefficient resources consumption (battery), I can't continue and stay much longer on this ROM, unless there is a solution in the short horizon, un-fortunately (for myself) I need to move on to another ROM.

By the way, I have no Data, Wi-Fi or GPS connection, also checked & no apps in the background that prevents the phone from going to sleep.

Thanks - again for an excellent development
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Mohanshbhr:
it happens sometime but maximum for 2 minuts.

ya 2 times but at least 6 months ago when i dont know anything about flashing , these kind of problen started some days ago
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
so this cant be your problem...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Mohanshbhr:
I m going to flash stock deodexed jps with stock jps kernel and going to watch battery backup with 3g data on for some days then i flash g3mod kernel over stock deodexed jps and again watch battery backup.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
good idea...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] itzik_man:
I was on stock deodexed JPS with its Kernel for a while, with the best battery consumption of any ROM, but to use with the JPS the G3MOD kernel it's an idea that I will try it myself.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Mohanshbhr:
Now i m on stock deodexed jps with its stock kernel, i will report back when i completed at least 3 to 4 charge discharge cycle.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] cz.marcin:
I was actually going to say that 1.4 kernel on stock jpq works perfectly... no battery drain at all... data and gps on and am getting 1-2% drain over night

bloody brilliant :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mankokoma:
Regrettably

I also have to mention a huge battery drain since flashing 1.4

Over last night in deep sleep about 10% draining (no data or any other connection). Normally my drain over night is ZERO to ONE percent... This afternoon suddenly dropping to 24% (only little wifi today). Nothing changed in Apps and always looking for running apps & services. Usually I uninstall Apps running in the background... I hate them, it's mostly not necessary (reminds me on Microsoft-systems, which I only use to flash my phone :rolleyes:).

So, will go back to 1.34 for now - need the phone tomorrow on mobility.... :(

Good news: Since changing SuperCharger to opt. 3 aggresive it's more stable! No freeze.

@FadeFX (sorry, saw your post on my FS quite now)

NO, won't loose any data!

1. Regulary backups is a MUST anyhow

2. there is e2fsck, which works - yes, you have to push the Y-key felt 1000 times maybe when you really have to repair the FS...

3. "Journaling on an SSD is not required." Please read this (last Quarter of first post & thanks to Kyrillos) - oh, just realize, you put the second post in there...

Journaling is draining Battery and uses CPU power. I don't wanna start a big discussion about using ext2 or ext4. I think, ext4 without Journal is better than ext2... That's it - no big fight about PLZ...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] GryTEcHoG:
I do see a battery drain from 50% to 42 to 38% in very quick fashion and I've noticed the Voltage levels at these %. I see 3750mv for 50% and 3729mv for 38% so how could a 21mv take off 12% of battery? If we calculate based on this then 21*8=168mv equals to 100% apprx(8*12=96) of battery. I think we have some kind of bug when we get below the battery 50%. Even I noticed the values for 24%(3699mv) and 15%(3665mv).

I see this is in every kernel of g3mod and fugumod ultra pre release.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] pranjal18:
does v1.4 lite have ram optimisation script??
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] GryTEcHoG:
No, its removed.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] FadeFx:
That's why we put commit=20 so journal is updated only every 20 sec. Belive me, what can go wrong, will go wrong. I have seen lots of people complaining about data loss due to unclean shutdowns on ex2 systems. And u can not always have a backup of everything. Also sometimes the loss is hiding and lurking somewhere one doesn't check regularly and thus finds its way to the backups...

However, its in everybody's own hand, just to let the noobs know why we suggest ext4.

This is what samsung has defined as the battery driver... :mad:
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] ka'cipeder:
This is not correct, i've been monitoring my battery and i'm sure that 3.7v is 50% and that makes sense, most of batteries of this type are 3.7v and that is the default charge. I think that below 4.1v is 99% and 3.6 is 20%, i'll check it out today. BTW guys i think most of you need to calibrate your batteries, download battery calibration from market.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
that is the problem, the code which i gave was the code by Samsung....and so, it is difficult to solve the non-linear drain of the battery...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] fuxmen:
im fancing similar problem, in 15 minutes drop from 95% to 82% :(
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] debaj:
What happens if you charge the battery full, then go to recovery and wipe battery stats (or simply use the BatteryCalibration app from market)?

Why isn't 14,13.... etc. to 1 % ?

I hope it could be fixed :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Dharam_Maniar:
Well, that is how it is coded, 15%,5%,3%,1%...

i tried to do it like 15,14,13...but then the phone was getting switched off around at around 11-10%...this shows hows screwed up the samsung drivers are...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] itzik_man:
I am one of the battery usage complainers but I am still around, hard to go away from almost a perfect ROM (G3MOD) & Kernel (1.4 Extreme_Fixed).

There is an improvement in the battery draining issue after I charge it to 100% & did Battery Calibration.

Will try this idea to wipe in Recovery & do a calibration again.
