Let's move on guys. The last couple pages of discussion were far from constructive. Want to punch the next person talking about bad battery life or help with root or best Rom.

On another note, still awaiting your new release w/ Zcache and the "other" feature you're working on. Patiently waiting for it.

Andrei,

Can you help me decipher these settings under the screen tab? Amount, Radius and Threshold...

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] agusdallalba:

IMO, they should all be set to zero, or with a small radius and large threshold. But I really dislike that effect, it's up to personal preference. (It's the one that causes halos around sharp text over grey backgrounds, and makes your DSLR photos look like they have been taken with a cameraphone.)

Re: [Kernel][27/03] Perseus

Thanks for your help. I didn't really like digital edge enhancement and I had it turned off for the longest time. I lowered the three values to -75 to minimize some of the softness of text and it looks better now. Small text is sharp with these values.

So I installed Perseus and everything it's great so far... except for one little issue, I can't connect with Kies... it's just weird, the pc recognizes the device but Kies just won't connect, and this begun with the kernel... no biggie for me 'cause I almost never use Kies... Except fot that it's the bes kernel ever :D
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] GrayJack:
It's normal. You really don't need neither buggy and dangerous Samsung sh#t named Kies nor it's part in kernel that is famous for memory leaks.

There is a lot of other stable software with same functionality.

A quick guide to booting off your android

I just managed to get this working.

Install DriveDroid, and make sure you buy it if you find it useful!

Open DriveDroid. Allow it root access.

Note that you must disable USB debugging, and change the USB mode to UMS, to do that, continue reading. Press the settings button (either the one that's probably in the middel of the screen, or the one at the bottom of the screen).

Press the USB Mode option, and choose Mass Storage (recommended!)

Press the USB Mode option again and double check the Mass Storage option is selected. I had some trouble here.

Go to your System settings -> Developer options, and make sure USB debugging is unticked. Close the settings window and go back in DriveDroid. If you're still in the DriveDroid settings screen, press back to go back to the main screen.

Press the + button at the bottom, choose Download image... Scroll to your favourite distribution (if you want a quick and easy one, choose SliTaz - it's only 35mb), press it, then choose the ISO you wish to download. I tested this with slitaz-4.0.iso and ubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.iso, so I know they both work. It will download in the background.

Monitor the download from the notification pulldown, and when it's done press back twice to go back to the main screen of the DriveDroid app

You should now see the ISO you downloaded listed on the main screen. If you don't try pressing the refresh button, if that doesn't help then you probably either have USB debugging mode still enabled, or you haven't put the phone into Mass Storage mode from the settings screen. Try steps 3-6 again.

Assuming you do see it, press it. It will show yo a screen titled "Host image", and (for me) offer 4 options: S3C 1, S3C 2, F Mass Storage 1, and F Mass Storage 2. Next to each of these 4 options will be two buttons, a USB plug, and a USB plug with a little lock next to it. Press the USB plug (not the lock one) next to S3C 1, then it will dump you on the DriveDroid main screen. Press the Linux distribution again, and this time press the USB plug next to S3C 2. Your distribution should now have 4 USB plug icons infront of it, and the "None" option should have 4 dots.

Reboot your PC and boot into the BIOS. On my PC I had to go into the advanced BIOS settings, choose the boot order of the hard disk, and in there increase the "Linux File-CD Gadget" priority to be above my normal hard drive that I boot off. You'll have to play around in your BIOS to find this setting I'm guessing. Then save your BIOS settings, and let the PC boot (extra detail on this step here). It should boot straight into Linux from your phone.

Note. I tried it a second time and it didn't work. I also noticed that when I unplugged the USB cable from my phone, the battery icon in the status bar still had the charging icon on it. Something was weird. I fixed the battery problem by going into DriveDroid's settings, clicking the USB Mode button, and toggling it to MTP then back to Mass Storage. I then plugged it back in, and successfully booted from my phone.

HTH

Hey Andrei.

Recently I saw strange thing. Your kernel uses outdated busybox 1.20.2. After flashing it on ARHD Rom my terminal uses old busybox for whatever reason and I can't use some nice features presented in 1.21. Could you please add check for such things (f.e. if busybox is already present in rom) or simply update it to the newest version?

Thank you, long live almighty Perseus kernel :).
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] tolis626:
Busybox is a ROM thing.Download stericsson's Busybox app from the play store and update from there
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JustArchi:
Yes I know that but terminal emulator shows busybox 1.21 on clean ARHD and after flashing of perseus kernel it suddenly changes to 1.20.2. I'm 100% sure that this causes such problem, I've already flashed everything else and perseus kernel is the last thing on my list.

Edit:

Also even after updating busybox from google store, it works fine (shows as 1.21) but after reboot it returns back to 1.20.2.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] t4d73:
Then just update your busy box man. What's the issue?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JustArchi:
Edited last post a bit :).

I'm just doing a nandroid backup and will re-check it again.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] FlaffyM:
Usually yes but Perseus has busybox included and yes its older version.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] t4d73:
I use perseus on my note 2 but I'm assuming it's pretty much the same for you and I've never seen anyone else with this issue. And I don't see it either.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JustArchi:
Try it yourself then. Download Terminal Emulator, type for example command free --help and it'll show you BusyBox version. Then try to update it using official BusyBox app, check again and reboot phone, check again ;).
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] FlaffyM:
You dont need to reflash anything like I sad perseus comes with busybox which is v1.20 even if you update it to latest version it will be overwritten after reboot with the one that is in the perseus ramdisc and that is v1.20.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JustArchi:
Yeah, you're completely right. That's why I suggest some check for busybox and using it only if rom itself doesn't support/have it. Or at least keep it upgraded ;).

Not trolling I guess :P

Back on topic, Andrei are you doing a daily usage on zRAM? I've spent a few testing and those hangings some people is having are happening to me as well, but looks completly similar to the "hanging time" when you change the space of zRAM in Stweaks... like 10 - 15 secs of non-responsive phone at all to go back to pure smoothness...

Maybe those people are using really heavy apps that lead to this? (For me I'm using Ingress and this usually happens only after using it or Chrome with 10+ tabs)

As everything everyone uses the device in a different way but worth experimenting :)

hi brother,right now i am using Neat Rom XXEMC2 and it has stock kernel(repacked) and i want to suse perseus kernel so is it possible to flash tis kernel via CWM? if yes which one is recommended? the alpha one on the OP?thanks.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Erahgon:
The hanging time during changing of swap size is cause the swapped in data is getting swapped out and cached, before the size is changed.

Maybe you have to fiddle around with the swapiness values to find one that fits your use case?

Sent from the present, which is now in the past.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] BenjaminX2:
XXEMC2 is a 4.1.2 rom and that's good, because you can use this kernel. I went with alpha 34 and have zero problems so far.

Flash the zip via CWM.

Get yourself Stweaks from the play store (free) and see what you can change in the settings!

Hi Andrei,

I have a question about compiling your kernel, if you don't mind. Basically I get it to compile fine with linaro 4.6.2 (even though I had to modify a couple of things, such as the SVN_REV for the mali code). The end zImage file, though, is slightly smaller than yours. When I pack it back into the original (Perseus) boot.img, I can flash the kernel and it works just fine. Everything seems ok, except when I watch HD videos on youtube. The audio is fine, but the video flickers, which I assume has something to do with the GPU. Do you happen to know what could be causing this? Do you take any special steps when compiling the kernel? Sorry for the noobish questions, I'm just trying to educate myself on the i9300 kernel.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] habylab:
Well Linaro has been disproven but I'm sure he will help with your learning!

Just updated Omega to v43.2 (XXEMC2) and much to my disappointment, I'm now victim of the mic problem... Using the stock kernel, the microphone works fine in all apps (recorder app, vocal search, etc.) and telephone. Flashing Perseus 34.3 disables (or reduces violently the volume) the mic in all places but the telephone...

Interesting thing is, Siyah is also producing the same problem, when stock XXEMC2 doesn't.

Ha... I did reflash Perseus for the n-th time, and eventually the mic reworks... go figure.

Echo Issues (In Call)

Guys, having a weird problem since last update: echo issues whenever I use a headset.

To be more specific; the other side hears an echo of their voice when I call them. Happens when I set the output level to 63db for both channels of the headset. If lowered to 49-52 range (useless for me) the echo goes away.

I presume this has something to do with the implementation of boeffla sound because when I've been using Perseus for quiet some time and never had this problem with scoobydoo sound engine.

My headset is Jays One+ (also tried with standard, Beats and Bose headsets)

ROM is MR2 (Wanam)

Got the Jkay mod (was always there)

With my limited knowledge I was able to narrow it down to output amplification.

Any ideas or thoughts about this?

Also @AndreiLux

Would you consider making available the boeffla sound app to control the DAC?

I guess the version you use is kind of modified, thats why boeffla's app doesn't recognize the engine.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] AndreiLux:
You didn't explain why you needed it. I'm currently using a stripped down busybox explicitly because of size. If you really need it, then change your PATH variable to use the /system/bin busybox instead of the /sbin/ one and export it in an init.d script at startup.

The sysinterface has nothing in common with Boeffla anymore. Somebody already asked Simone (who maintains the app) about it and he said he won't support it.

And I don't really care. You can control things using STweaks and HeadphoneAmpControl provides you with a compatible overlay that overrides the volume buttons and uses the hardware amplifier.

Are you talking about a headset with microphone or simple headphones? Never heard anybody encounter that issue. If it's the former, I can't really test that since I don't have such a headset.

New version released. Please report any possible issues.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bnbasarir:
Headphones with mic.

Gonna try the new version and report back.

Thank you for the hard work and prompt response.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jinosong:
Almost missed that. Thanks Andrei.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bnbasarir:
@AndreiLux

Tried the new version. Deleted /data/.perseus to be safe. Still same :banghead:

At the beginning of the call echo is unbearable but during the call if I lower the output with the HeadphoneAmpControl the echo disappears briefly, comes back if I raise the output too fast, if raised one step at a time no echo even at 60db but starting from there echo is persistent unless dropped back below 60db

Let me know if you need more information.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] omniwolf:
Andrei has stated before that he first releases it to the i9300 for wider testing as that's the device he owns. Once the features are bedded down and mostly tested, he then opens the flood gates to the other devices. He has not forgotten about them. Asking for them won't get it released earlier, you just have to wait for when he believes it's ready.

fyi the Note 2 only missed out on 1 release (34.3), and the only change was the zRAM STWeaks setting. Something you could do with scripting/in a terminal anyway.

Hey Andreilux,

Could you fix this?

The bug was resolved eventually (for now atleast) after i deleted perseus folder in /data .

But there's another thing,the "force mono downmix" option gets inverted if you use it?

It's disabled if checked now and enabled if uncheked (?) .

EDIT: And now the setting of mono/stereo won't stick...

If i don't listen to music for a couple of minutes and listen again the audio is mono and i have to toggle the setting on/off again to make it sound stereo again...:(

I think the new audio system is a bit buggy.

I narrowed the echo problem down to gain levels.

I created a profile in Tasker; phone off the hook with headset plugged in. It turns down the in-call volume as low as possible. This would normally would do the trick but hack no. Unless I drop the gain level manually before the call starts echo is there. :banghead:

I don't know how may I help or if anyone else is experiencing the same problem. Although someone mentioned problem with Bluetooth audio I'm sure it's not related 'coz DAC has no effect on A2DP profile
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Alphadan:
Thanks, but I was already aware of the existence of that program... There are no usage instructions to be found there anyway, that is why i am asking.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Tokarin:
Stweaks is a intermediate channel to change the variables to your liking, and the variables available are implemented by Andreilux. Just think like that for a moment. Then read all the explanation to the variables Andreilux given in Stweaks. If you still don't understand, search on the variables and it's usage, since they are somewhat similar to Linux kernel variables or other custom kernels' implementations.

Now if you still can't learn to tweaks those variables under and test-fail scheme to find the right value for you, or wouldn't know how to find the right value. Ask any member actively using Perseus kernel in this forum to share you his profile, ask for the "default.profile" file.

Since this kernel is very cutting edge, there is no presets for you to choose from. Because many values are subjected to personal views.
