Never was good at detective work...

xda-developers > Samsung Galaxy S III I9300 > Galaxy S III Original Android Development > [KERNEL][ExTweaks][Eargasm][exfat][NTFS] SiyahKernel S3 v1.3.8

There is the clue. How did I ever miss it!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Matt3333:
Any chance of the lulzactive governor getting added? Always used it on the S2.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] baste07:
Checked betterbatterystats im seeing very little deep sleep, any tweaks i can do to enduce more deep sleep?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] thyttel:
Must be some programs you got running keeping the phone alive. Mine is in deep sleep most of the time.

Fully overdoing to the Eargasm is NOT recommended for people who like their ears. it's amazing though the difference. Sorry I know this is bit ot but the difference is that good
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] nl2008:
This kernel freeze the phone when playing virtual tennis game! any ideas? stock kernel got no problems.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] thyttel:
Did you under volt cpu?

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] nl2008:
No under volt cpu. Use all defualt settings.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mmse88:
Try to disable some settings in EXTweaks :)

Edit: Try switch CFS-defaults: Samsung default or disable the Gentle fair sleepers. Let see will that improve or not :D
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] urmybaby:
Hey. Great Kernel. But with ZSALFL HK Stock ROM I have black bar in both Back and Front camera. How can I fix that?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mmse88:
Just switch the resolution to 3264 x 1836 should be fine :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bernard134:
No such issue encountered. Running XXALG1 Singapore Stock ROM with siyah kernel v1.3.8a
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] urmybaby:
I don't think it will be fine on HK stock ROM. 3264 x 1836 is wide solution photo. I want normal 8mw solution. Anyone help? Many thanks

Also got front camera, you cannot do switch resolution. It will temporarily fix the problem. Once you view the photo in gallery, it will appear black bar again. Stock kernel no problem.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] nrpetonr:
i doubt it is kernel. i loose cca 0.5%/hr overnight with wifi,gmail,fb and all other aps sync on. really check bbs to pinpoint the problem
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] ph3nom:
i had a sudden reboot with this kernel yesterday while testing it playing games for about 2-3 hours. Everything close down and everything reboot, like Hot reboot.

The game i was playing is Ragnarok Online (MMORPG). Also had several force close with this kernel playing this game. But didn't have this problem when running Siyah 1.3.7

Just to report a discovery that i found. Btw, no UV on GPU and 3rd step to 1 sec same as 4th

Battery of this kernel is awesome so far. can't complain. my phone went to deep sleep for 4h in 5 hr since unplugged

Quick question. What is this Gimme-Drums feature? does it only work on head phone? Also, EarGasm work for headphone only too? not speaker phone?

Edit:

Freeze when playing castle master 3D too. I pressed home button got black scrren but can restart when pressed power button and choose restart
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] EdgaBimbam:
Just asking, with mali status app, gpu never goes more then 267mhz, is it should be like this? :) with 1.3.8a
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] paranoid2007:
Could someone please post some suggestions how to configure Extweaks for good battery performance? I'm a bit lost about all the settings. Also, which CPU governor is default, and do I need another software to change it?

Edit: just noticed that the governor can be set via extweaks and is this pegasus thing by default. But where are all the other common governors like on demand etc.?

Hi gokhanmoral,

if I'm not wrong, the "project butter" which makes jelly bean so smooth, is that the device is forced to use 60fps. Shouldn't it be possible to force the s3 with the kernel to use on ics also 60fps?

L
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Cyb3rGlitch:
Project Butter isn't that trivial. Wait for Jelly Bean.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] torsrex:
It's called mali resume frequency which makes the phone smoother. You can disable it if you want in extweaks under gpu the topmost check box. :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bala_gamer:
afaik resume frequency only stops the gpu to lower the clock below 266mhz( 167 mhz) , so the gpu should throttle up upto 4xxmhz whenever needed
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] EdgaBimbam:
Within disabled or enabled still it doesnt go higher then 267mhz
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bala_gamer:
did you change the gpu stepping threshold in extweaks?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] -Leviathan-:
Not one thing is clear to me. Flashing the kernel should not also change the recovery, with a dedicated? Why not happening? Continues to remain the cwm touch recovery 5.8.4.5 ...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] inffy:
Kernels don't contain recovery on the SGS3.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] EdgaBimbam:
Firstly no later lowered them, after disabling resume maliq it goes 166 or 267mhz, never reached more then 267
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] iAvivR:
Smartstay not working with V9.0 and SiyahKernel 1.3.8a.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] EdgaBimbam:
To be honest smart stay sucks, at night it isnt working, and set 5 or 10min screen time and you dont need smart stay ;)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] -Leviathan-:
Ok thanks. There is a dedicated recovery for this kernel, like the s2?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] inffy:
No

Not atm..gorkhan is on vacation,so no eta for awhile

Flash cm9 on your phone,then u can adjust mdnie..

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Franc38:
It works quite OK here... Just the same as before: not perfect when light is weak, but useful nonetheless. :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] smohanv:
Wanam's ROM with this kernel is working like charm.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kilian7th:
Personally yes lol , Gokhan need to have long vacations but I really hope it will be the next step , this man is so amazing and this possibility was so cool on sgs 2 ....
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mister_Mxyzptlk:
Possible Bug:

When using Siyah kernel, "FM Radio" app will ouput sound via earphones, but not via handset speaker. Verified by successfully outputting sound through handset speaker using other kernels (Stock, Franco).

Device: GT-I9300 16GB

Build Number: IMM76D.I9300XXBLFB

Kernel: Siyah 1.3.8a
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jayharper08:
I've cleaned up the bs chitter-chatter. If I see anything else about fanboys, or off topic flaming again, points and even vacations will be handed out if needed. If you want to use the kernel, use it. If something isn't working correctly for you, then take that time you're using to type useless posts to make it work yourself. I don't want to see any more of it. This is a DEVELOPMENT thread on a DEVELOPMENT site. Not 4chan or 9gag. Blanket warning for everyone.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] x.Orville.x:
Where i can find the kernel cleaner thanks
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mmse88:
Try ultimate kernel cleaner.

:)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] nzkller:
Every time that I flash a kernel should I use the kernel cleaner?

If no in which case should I use it and what is the real action of it?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mmse88:
I wanna say something related to this kernel

I have flashed 5 different kernels during the weekend from the CheckROM kitchen. Problems are they don't support exFAT and some don’t even have voltage control to adjust. But Siyah kernel really taking cares of our needs.

Although a little bit of battery drains but the under voltage of -100mV is SUPER stable to fill back the shortcomings.

It really has many great innovative features like speed up AC and USB charge and it seemed to be very safe on battery and without battery any overheat issue.

I honestly appreciate with your work Mr. GM. Keep going and hope the battery life can be improved a bit more then it will be flawless :good:

---------- Post added at 04:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 AM ----------

I just wipe cache partition and dalvik cache that's all :)

Edit: I NEVER use whatever kernel cleaner.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bordikun:
anyone notice the LED dim on 1.3.8a? or is it only on omega?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] FadeFx:
Probably omega feature..

Bugreport: no audio on Bluetooth HF.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] uberto.costanzo:
Hi i have flash this kernel and work good and speed. Is oc 1800 but default is 1400 i use 1400 change to 1800 is dangereuse? Thanks for reply

Inviato dal mio GT-I9300 con Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] torsrex:
It's dangerous if your oc of 1800 uses a voltage over 1400 mv, since that's the highest safe voltage for the exynos processor. Higher than that, and your chip will degrade over time.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Lennyuk:
Wiping cache and dalvik when flashing a new kernel will not do anything to help the kernel, all your doing is forcing the rom to rebuild its cache, needlessly.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Franc38:
Not dangerous in itself,

However, over the long term the overheating generated by high frequencies may damage your CPU.

The main problem is, depending on the luck of the draw (varies from one specific unit to the next) your phone may become unstable, have frequent FCs and not perform well with that level of overclocking.

Plus.... SGSIII already is a beast with the normally clocked Exynos, pushing it to 1.5GHz may give you that little added edge, but really, at the moment, there is not a single app that will make the CPU break a sweat handling it.

---------- Post added at 11:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 AM ----------

I don't think those things are any more useful than a placebo...

Flashing a kernel does not require any "cleaning" or wiping of any sort.

I've flashed (probably thousands of kernels) for a long time using wipes, then doing nothing... Haven't noticed a difference.

I've never used a kernel cleaner, and I've never had a problem that could be traced to that.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] zodiaxe66:
And i told him there will be no update for awhile and why..

so what's your problem???
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] demonstone:
So what's yours?

What has to do asking for a feature with an eta? It doesn't make sense...

Anyway that's all... You replied him, I did it to you, you did it to me, I did it to you, and go on...

No problem for me with you... Ok?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] SirCanealot:
Except every time I see it flash to 1704mhz for me in cool tool when loading anything. :D

Keep in mind most of android isn't optimised for quad core, so during periods of loading like loading a game level or a webpage, you will basically max out 1 core whatever your clock soeed. Ocing does help shave a lil time of game level loads especially I've noticed, and makes Web pages a tad faster to load :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] knights.JayTana:
with this kind of processor we have, OCing is pointless if you're just using your phone for basic task... quad-core ticking @ 1.4ghz max (default), its already flying...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Franc38:
Yeah, sure... Everytime you do seomthing, basically you go at 1.7GHz for a milisecond instead of going at 1.4GHz for a milisecond point one... The governor will use the max possibility of the phone, but outside getting a tad better result in the benchmarks, it doesn't change anything in real life experience. The games smoothness in playing or all stays virtually the same, and ditto for any other app.

Maybe in one or two years there will be apps that will push the SGSIII to its limits. At this time OC will be useful. For now, I'm not too sure it does anything more than giving you a slightly higher score in quadrant and draining the battery slightly quicker.

has this kernel broadcast-filter enabled? (less wlan activity)

iam asking cause of nearly constant wlan icon activity (even with all ports blocked).

over mobile inet theres no such traffic activity, just with wlan. (cause of the broadcast packets?)

hey guys, i have a problem: i flash this kernel but i don't have the icon of extweaks...i try to:

Help installing this please using clockwork

Hi can anybody tell me detailed instructions on how to install new rom through clockwork, my s3 is rooted and have clockwork on it already, ive just forgotten how to flash, also do i need correct kernal before flashing ? and the rom i want to install is Siyah-s3-v1.2.6.tar , Many thanks from brian oh and if anybody has this rom please let me no how it performing sound wise as supposed to make phone louder !! thanks again from brian.

Oops think this is a kernal so can i just flash it using clockwork recovery ? and instructions please thankyou
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
Download the cwm version. boot to recovery and flash from cwm recovery. Nothing more, nothing less. No need to wipe cache or dalvik.

Sound is good but you need to download extweaks app from play store to access the kernel/sound settings.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Franc38:
Best solution for flashing this (and most others) kernel is to get mobile Odin (paid version on PlayStore, free one here in xda), instal it and configure it.

Then you download the kernel (say Siyah-s3-v1.2.6.tar, but I really recommend you try 1.3.8a, as I find it's the best so far) to an place you want on your SD card (internal or external). Start mobile Odin, click "open file", navigate to the .tar file you've donwloaded, then click on "flash"... It'll reboot and you'll be with your new Siyah kernel!

EDIT, obviously, as explained by KennyLegend, you still can DL the CWM version and flash it in recovery... Not as "user friendly" and sometimes less failproof, but if you're used to it...

Any setting for boosting incall volume? in extweaks or something?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Pownitore:
anybody?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Daelyn:
Had a similar issue and could not find a reason until I ran tcpdump. Ate my battery up in no time. (Wlan-rx-wake)

I've got a lot of multicast due to redundancy configured network (VRRPv2) and I run without WLAN or VPN into it instead if needed.

At home it works fine though. Wi-Fi on all night and it ain't consuming much.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Daelyn:
Must be a ROM bug or something. The kernel has nothing to do with the app until it tries to interface with it.

Does it show up in TIB?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Pownitore:
yes, i see it in titanium back up, but i don't know that i have to do...any idea?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Franc38:
Maybe you've "frozen" it in Titanium?

That happened to me once, I tried to re-install, etc. and couldn't get the app to appear... until I "unfroze" it ;)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Pownitore:

Hey.

Not if you only happen to me, but I think it is under this mobile signal coverage than others. If you could get a little more gain to the antenna, I would appreciate.

Anyway, a great job. :good:

thanks
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] FadeFx:
Hmm, usually such behavior can only be caused by a change in battery driver, a modem firmware can only cause more or less drain, but then it would be linear as the modem itself is not even aware of a battery.

this is fantastic i was recommended to use this as i wanted a audio boost via speaker and headphones of which i dont notice on speaker but i do on the heaphones its increased a lot!, i wana be greedy tho and maybe increase a slight bit more ifso how? im in a noisey inviroment at work so the louder the better.

great work for this kernal im not to sure whats best settings for cpu ext maybe someone could tell me what settings are best via extweak? thank you :good:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] nodstuff:
Louder would blow up your eardrums and distort the sound, 62 is the ceiling for amplifier boost before sound gets crackly.

Best bet is to invest in a good quality pair of noise cancelling earphones.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bordikun:
I also noticed this, 90-100% battery drops very very slow. but < 90% it drops fast but still i get excellent battery life.

maybe it is cause by the new Firmware(BLG1)? because I flash omega 9.0 and siyah 1.3.8a at the same time.

OR maybe it just need a FULL cycle charge :confused:

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bordikun:
Just a thought, since it was possible to dim the LED lights.

maybe there is a way also to dim the TOUCH KEYS right? that would be great!(for me). I disabled it because at night it leaks so if there is a way to dim it, that would be really really useful for those who have white S3 :D
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] FadeFx:

I did not get any light leak from touch buttons at the bottom at night with no ambient lights, perhaps it's a factory defect on your unit?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] KMino:
Obviously Samsung has changed the manufacturing process then. In the threads in general, all of the white phone users reported the effect.

When the lights are on, do you see glue around the touch buttons? They might have slipped in a black sheet on new releases or something..

Back to the kernel all is going well here! Got this on my phone and neak on the Mrs phone to compare :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] fastcx:
Ops, I'm on blue :P Back to topic before us being warn again :angel:

I'm running stock XXALF6, and I have issue with video playback that uses HW acceleration like in YouTube and MXplayer, in youtube videos during portrait mode the video just move up to top with half of it left on the frame to show, but it's fixed when I pulled notification down. It's normal in landscape mode. MXplayer pushes video to the left in landscape.

So does camera app when using 8mp. Preview screen just has the preview part pushed to the left with gui intact. Is this kernel or rom related?

EDIT: does anyone has /etc/media_profiles.xml around? A's stock as possible
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
My led notification is fine in stock rom. Try re flashing or a different rom.

I can confirm that the audio on video recording is not right. Mine cuts in and out.

Have to agree here. It's insanely loud through headphones as it is. If you need more speaker volume try Meltus's audio mod. You can even modify the file and adjust volume levels to suit your own liking. :cool:
