Hmm, I don't know if I'am alone in this case but it seems I'am getting (much) less battery life since the implementation of Boeffla sound.

Tried usual tips, same config with STweaks, etc, and checked with BBS for eventual wakelocks (everything looked normal to me on it).

Weird :(

Could this be caused by this implementation ? or abolutely not ?

Many thanks!

no, you are not. I'm having the same issue so far (though it could be too early to call, since I'm only on a second charge cycle).

normally i was getting about 50 hours of battery life with about 3 hours of screen. Now it's down to 35 and 1.5

no wakelocks or any config or usage patterns changes.

Please provide a /proc/last_kmsg log after you get the a reboot, if you got such a lock/freeze then it caused by undervolting or overclocking.

That can impossibly change anything kernel related. Dalvik is a red herring and will not affect the kernel.

Too much CPU/GPU overclocking or undervolting could potentially be the problem. Try default voltages and frequencies and see if it continues then.

Try reflashing the ROM and kernel. If it continues, try just using stock kernel and/or a different kernel. If it still continues, backup, wipe cache, Dalvik and data and then

reflash ROM + kernel. If it *still* doesn't work then I don't know what's wrong.

It's on the OP...

Don't be scared by the alpha denomination of the kernel, I'm just taking the traditional naming scheme where alpha designates feature development, beta is feature-completeness, and final will actually be when I'll actively stop developing the kernel.

Left Channel + Right Channel. I.e if you want more sound coming from the left, you have an option to configure the sound so that happens. The stock sound is 57 on both channels and 6 boost volume if I remember correctly.

Thanx for that, looks like a complete rewrite is needed for this interface as it has a lot more features than voodoo/scoobydoo sound. Am i right if i assume that we can make use of the parametric eq here as well?

Also there is no app yet to control all that nice options?

Looks like i have to do a new setup on my phone so i can do the necessary testing and stuff.

Re: [Kernel][23/03] Perseus

Guys using init.d scripts like me, due to changes in the way zRam is implemented in 34.1 (i.e. zRam auto start), to enable custom values for zRam, we must run "swapoff" first, then use the commands specified in my previous post.

If you're using @invinciblecc's methods, smanager must be used in root mode, and the scripts can be auto started at boot too.

Add to my previous code:

Although, for some reason, when I typed swapoff in terminal emulator, it didn't work. I guess it should work with the init.d as it does this before zRam is actively in use. Can some people use and report? Thanks!

---------- Post added at 03:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:38 PM ----------

@Invinciblecc: just looked at your scripts, and while all seems fine, the command "mkswap /dev/block/zram0" isn't present in any of them.

Is it because it's not needed when using smanager? This could be why the people using them as init.d scripts are not getting it to work (based on reports, haven't tried your scripts personally).

Also, "echo 1 > /sys/block/zram0/initstate" isn't there in the 500 MB script. Is it required at all?

Don't know if this has been mentioned before but am curious if it would at all be possible to have an option in stweaks to be able to increase the bluetooth volume like we currently have for the phone speaker and line out audio.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Erahgon:
Re: [Kernel][23/03] Perseus

Bluetooth audio affects and levels are controlled by the Bluetooth device itself. The kernel can't help in this case.

Try increasing the preamp gain on any software EQ (like the one in your music player or DSP Manager).

I use the Mega Bass Beats mod, as it comes with a working DSP Manager. And I use the DSP Manager to tweak the sound for the Bluetooth (incl. The EQ).
