Could you please help me and tell how to complitly disable (turn OFF) this scoobydoo driver?

---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 PM ----------

IMHO stock sound better... All other this kernel better stock for sure, but sound killing my nervs listening music
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] LenAsh:
Agreed - Just one line required after the first one

#!/system/bin/sh

echo 0 > /sys/class/misc/scoobydoo_sound_control/enable

It would be better if the sound "enhancements" (!) were disabled by default rather than the other way round.

i'm still fightning against gpu voltages.. they won't works with my script :crying:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] aydc:
I agree, when gokhanmoral came up with this, supercurio objected that these don't do any good in SGS3. He was right. All these tweaks do is make the sound worse. With decent headphones, stock is better. However, most people use crappy headphones like the ones that come out of the box, for them, these settings make the sound a little more tolerable, so they like it.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] LenAsh:
Do you know if the script is working (any other mods in there that do have an effect)?

If not, what does your script look like and have you set the folder and file permissions OK?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Satch09:
I'm struggling to get the gpu thresholds set, I've echoed 533 as the max and that works but can't echo 85 and 10 to /sys/devices/system/gpu/thresholds. Anyone getting this?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] SirCanealot:
I completely disagree. I've had a cowon s9 and currently have a cowon x7 (95 percent same audio as s9), but recently I've been too lazy to carry it (its a brick!) and have been using my s3 for music. Before sound tweaks, I'd say my s3 sounded about, say, 25% worse than my x7. With the sound tweaks, they sound very similar(very!) . Possibly even my s3 sounds a lil better. Cowon use wolfson dacs as well (I think maybe even a similar model...?). Especially considering the s1 and s3 have very similar dacs thinking it makes it sound worse is either misconfiguration or placebo, imho.

I play bass guitar and so I usually spend a lot of time tweaking the bass settings on any player. I spent very little time on the s3 and the bass sounds perfect.

I mean, even if you turn all the other tweaks off and just use the hardware equaliser, are you saying it sounds worse? If so, you're insane*. Software equalisation is perfectly fine if you do it correctly, but the hardware equaliser on our dac sounds fantastic and is a clear step above.

*Edit: For the record, I'm perfectly insane also, so please don't take that as as insult :p

Of course, I'd love to hear (and will gladly pay for) the proper version of 'voodoo sound' for s3, but I have a policy about not getting excited about vaporware. So if it comes out then fantastic. If not, then stop talking about it like it exists.

(sorry to be a lil harsh, it's early on a Sunday and I'm going to work! :p)

permissions are 777, the script for max freq is working.. don't know why this is not!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] davi_ssilva:
I agree with you only in part: there was a real improvement of audio quality on the headphones output, but on the main speaker the sound quality got worse... The speaker tunning setting is just terrible... I prefer to have no bass at all on my main speaker instead of the muddy cracky sound that I get with the speaker tunning turned on. Luckly, I've leanded how to disable it using scripts... Otherwise, I would definitely flash another kernel, and that would be very sad since I love Perseus

PS: I'm also a musician, just like you.

Not so very

Difference in processing stereo channels - anyway - sound with modifications - you right - very in novadays Cowon way - too sharp, too electronic, to noise 8-) Thats why i gave up with Cowon. Sound in Sansa Fuse with RockBox much better - and much closer to sound that give us stock kernel.

Anyway - this is very personal.

But imho all embelishments should be present as ADDITION to the solid base... Not exluding some, but including if necessery...

I think if it can be loaded as separete module in kernel...

about 2hours trying to get gpu voltage script working and no luck..

this is the script

i tried to write it also directly from phone,but nothing

permissions set to 777 to be sure

i also made an other script,to set the max freq to 533mhz, and is working.. written with same method

Someone can help me please? i tried all,really!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] eric-filth:
To have 533 with max frequency you need this.

sleep 13

echo 533 > /sys/devices/system/gpu/max_freq

echo 160 750 > /sys/devices/system/gpu/volt_table

echo 266 800 > /sys/devices/system/gpu/volt_table

nothing to do :crying: volt_table remain the same ( permissions set to 777)

BTW a weird thing: if i run it, it works, seems a init.d problem ( but the other script works in init.d..)

Is anyone getting errating results on nenamark2. On the last version i get very choppy 3d perfomance even OC'ing the GPU. It's completely stable on Siyah 1.7. Perhaps i hava to wipe before flashing perseus?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] nfsmw_gr:
Maybe you undervolted too much?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] angiotell:
I'm trying your kernel, thank you
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] cba1986:
Stock voltages. I raised min freq to 266 and max freq to 533. Nothing else. I used the same values as in Siyah.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] h20pt:
I'm having random bluetooth connection drops using Perseus 25.3 + ARHD 13.0 + Motorola S9 HD. Anyone else noticed that?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] SirCanealot:
I've realised I'm also having problems with my gpu scripts. I've double checked against what's in the first post, and my script looks good.

Can anyone take a look at my script? Audio is applied but not gpu. Thanks!

This is what I use:

#Gpu control

#!/system/bin/sh

Sleep 15

echo 108 > /sys/devices/system/gpu/min_freq

echo 533 > /sys/devices/system/gpu/max_freq

echo 108 700 > /sys/devices/system/gpu/volt_table

echo 533 1025 > /sys/devices/system/gpu/volt_table
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Chillz88:
Even i had problems at first.. but i solved it using two seperate init.d scripts..one for setting max and min and the other for gpu freq voltage pairing... see if that works for you...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] eric-filth:
Sleep 13

Permissions for init.d is 755

Permissions for files are 744

Scripts name i used V0Gpu

This way works like a charm

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] KS_Ho:
Can I ask what the "Sleep 13" lines are for?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] nfsmw_gr:
In my experience i think it halts the execution of the lines after this command for 13 seconds.

Sleep X where X is any integral value in seconds.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] SirCanealot:
A quick Google suggests to me 755 is read/execute for everyone and write only for owner? So I have permissions set to: rwx r-x r-x. Would this be correct?

Either way, gpu script is still not applying. I tried naming it what you have, but I didn't see it making a difference anyway. Not sure if this is a rom issue? My rom is a lil old now... (omega 27.1). Might try wanam later since I keep hearing good things... ;D
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] dschense:
When i rund my gpu scripts in init.d with scriptmanager eveeything works great!!! Gputable is fine.. but when i put them to init.d and reboot with permission 755 or 777 nothing changes to table in sys/devices/....

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Any of you checked if you actually have init.d script execution support on your respective ROMs or kernel/ramdisk ?

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] JYJY:
When using wanamlite, my max freq was applied but not the voltage.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] katestar:
I am curious to see if anyone else is interested in this, but AndreiLux what is your opinion on an option to raise the MPLL base clock from 800 to 880MHz to match the rev 2 exynos 4412, is it something you may be interested to implement in the future or is it something that is a definite no please? :) I only ask because I haven't been able to find any thing with your opinion on increasing our MPLL base clock, only in the OP where you detail some information about the differences between our soc and the rev 2. So I hope you don't mind me asking. :)

Just instaled eric fifth rom with this kernel end this is one of best kernels i used so far keep the good work....
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] nfsmw_gr:
Andreilux,does the opensource update 6 have any significant changes?

Is the kernel based on it or will you update to this source?

Thanks. :)

I just checked and those sources are older than what I currently have in the kernel, but I'll pick some smaller changes.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] PIRATA!:
Hi to everyone!

I am not new of Samsung hacking as I am on a complete hacked i9000 :)

Now I am going for getting a i9300, so I am searching a good kernel for it.

What I am searching is a new kernel with root privileges, good tweak, and good sound improvements (something like Voodoo as for i9000).

I am NOT interested in any OC or UV. Can I not use these featuresand just leave them as stock default??

I see that this has a Voodoo support...but this means that I can't install the Voodoo app and manage its features, right??

Is the last i9300 stock rom an ICS or JB? I would like not to edit/install/flash any alternative rom because I'd like to remain on STOCK ROMS!!

Is this kernel what I am searching? Please give me your advice... ;)

Thank you.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
Voodoo control app us not supported on the S3. The latest stock rom is JB in most countries now.

Also u will have to root separately to flashing any kernel as the partitioning is different on the i9300.

So, flash rom, let boot, flash cf-root, let boot, flash kernel.

Perseus and Siyah kernels are currently the best in my opinion. Both have the sound enhancements built in.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] eseregin:
Better use JB - development of ISC stopped and will not continue

This kernel - one of the best - use it, it is not undervolted, not overclocked

Voodoo settings only through scripts
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] habylab:
This is the best tweaked stock kernel for sure, with certain modifications as listed in the OP. For sure, you shouldn't use ICS anymore as support for it ha basically been dropped.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] efegue:
You mean kernel :p
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] habylab:
Oooops, sorry!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jcvr:
USB charge

Maybe I didn't see some post talking about this.

And if so, sorry.

But my usb charging does not pass 96mA.

I'm on Android Revolution HD 13.0 and Perseus kernel 25.3.

Is this normal? In the OP is said that usb charge is at 900mA.

Thanks.

PS: This kernel rocks!!!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Galactus:
When you lot listen to music what clock does your cpu generally run at? Noticed that every music player I use with this kernel makes the cpu run at 1400mhz non stop, drains the battery real fast. Internet browser (Stock or Dolphin) also cause the cpu to run at 1400mhz, even when the page is as simple as google's homepage

Mine when down by over 5000 after installing this kernel! I didn't even change any settings and then I changed gpu to noop but no difference still. That's on Pegasus? And 1400mhz. Used to be about 12000 in antutu now 7000 :(

Changelog says Abyss. Stay away from that, he's adding things without knowing what he's doing.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] brian6685:
Abyss kernel is? Where is a thread for it, I can't find it.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bungknees:
What do you mean by this, I just flashed the abyss kernel to test, Ive also downloaded yours to try after, but if abyss is not safe then Ill get rid of it straight away.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] AndreiLux:
It's not as much as it is unsafe as it is ineffective. You can throw away half of his feature list as nonsense. I know when people see a big changelog they go "wow that thing is great", and it's a great thing for providing options, but in this case it's detrimental to use those features.

If you want a technical explanation:

You can throw away all governors aside from Pegasusq, smooth scaling conflicts in terms of scaling on default governor and may be even detrimental, scheduler selection is overhyped. Enabling AFTR while Samsung consciously left it disabled on our device is very dubious. Sched_mc has been proven to do absolutely nothing on SoC devices and to be even bad and a mistake to port into the mobile world. The rest are gimmicks or updates which don't do much and most people wouldn't notice. Only thing of value would be ramdisk related changes like init.d support and CIFS/NTFS moduels, but which I'll implement anyway soon, I just want to test them out myself before doing so.

Angelo's not posting things on XDA because he had a bad record with posting sources and wasn't welcome here anymore, and is also notoriously known for reaping developments of other developers and sticking his Abyss name on it. Although now he gives some proper credit and posts his sources (still in tarballs), I find him clueless in actual technical knowledge of what he's doing.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] brian6685:
Sounds like a knowledgeable explanation to me :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bungknees:
Cheers mate, i was aware that the other governors were pretty much pointless with the s3, and with a few of the reasons that he no longer posts on xda, but thanks for the rest of your explanation, Ive always thought with kernels that more isnt necessarily better.

Anyway, Im trying yours out at the moment, seems good. And one other thing that bothered me about abyss, even with the s2, is the stupid boot image, Fricken hate them.:o:):p
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ansonchan:
this mean that pegasusq still the best governor for our s3?

Hey Andreilux,

One thing bothers me in S3 and it is the RAM consumption.

Could you do something related with that. I don't know if its a Kernel problem.

My RAM is living on the edge and i don't have too much apps instaled and nothing than stocks apps running in background.

I'm with stock XXALE8, stock kernel and cf-root 6.1

If its possible i will thank you a lot.

This part (it assumes the reader knows about init.d and scripts therein)

Perseus alpha20 (9/09):

Gökhan Moral's port of Voodoo Sound implemented. Currently no configuration interface is available, so if you wish to play with the settings, refer to the sysfs interfaces in /sys/class/misc/scoobydoo_sound/ . If you wish to change the device name, you must do echo 0 > /sys/class/misc/scoobydoo_sound_control/enable , followed by an echo output to the same file with the target device driver name. You can use this to change the device path to /sys/class/misc/voodoo_sound/ and sub-sequentially make a certain configuration application work. Please do not ask me for support on the latter. You can disable the sound modifications completely by the same method, by of course not re-enabling it afterwards.
