Exact same ! ^^

Sharpness fix, undervolting / GPU OC are already missing me... But Yank555's kernel is great too, feels really clean and snap ! And he is really kind !

---------- Post added at 11:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 PM ----------

Don't give up ! :cyclops:

That should be a really great temporary option.... As GM seems to be on holidays (? Don't see any commit / file changes on github since 20 dec, hope he's well !) and we only need that little commit !

Hope he doesn't mind if others exceptionnaly publish here, as it is a really urgent fix.

If you need testers, i'm in ! :good:

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] WiwiPouPou:
Just enable boot logo !

Spontaneous shutdown ??

After I copied a nandroid backup (2.2GB) from internal SD to external SD, I checked my phone when the job was done and everything was still OK.

Then I left the phone for approx. 1/2h and when returned, I noticed my phone didn't react any longer to the normal unlock procedure.

I tried a couple of times, but no avail.

Apparently the phone has been shutdown spontaneously ..or crashed very badly.

After restart it seems ok again.

This was the first time this happened to me in 4 months that I own this SGIII.

Has this something to do with the "crashing" when transferring large amounts of data with Siyah 1.8.6 running that people are reporting ?

I've debugging checked in Stweaks : where is the debug-log stored on SGIII ?

I'm already on Yank555's kernel. On Slim Bean as on stock 4.1.1
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] AndreiLux:
And if you read just a 5 posts later in that thread I explain that the date shown is a different date:

Some people really have the reading attention span of mule. So, no, you are not safe if you are on that firmware, which most S3's have, regardless of the date that the app reports.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mcbyte_it:
AndreiLux, is it possible that you add to your build of the kernel a log to write down the real firmware date on some logger (dmesg for example)?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bigmo7:
I think I've been under a rock but what's all this about emmc? I tried to have a little look around to find out some info in the general discussion but I'm still not sure what's going on and why everyone is recommending jumping ship to a different kernel.

I downloaded the brick bug app to check and my chip is sane...but after reading the last few replies I gather this isn't enough?

A little bit of guidance goes a long way! Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] AndreiLux:
Irrelevant, most 0xF1 firmwares probably have that date. I wish I wouldn't have made that post because now it's spreading as "different date I am safe!".
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jimbo77:
I guess most people doesn't care to read. They are used to get the answer they seek by only asking.

what makes you ask such a silly question?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] maximo12345:
Sorry for that, I didn't mean to mislead the thread.

Just one question.

The sudden death happens only during reboot or also during normal use?

I ask that because I love siyah kernel and even if I tried all the other "safe" kernel now I'm back to siyah 1.8.6.

So if the "SDS" takes place only during reboot or boot I'll just try to avoid rebooting my phone and I should limit the risk, shouldn't I?

thanks
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bala_gamer:
it happens on multiple scenarios not limited to reboot. IT depends on your luck, there is no definite measure to trace it. Personally im using unpatched twrp recovery for a while and flashed some 20 to 30 test zips and yet all things are ok
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] droidphile:

Exynos Memory Exploit and SDS

There are a lot of threads talking about these two, particularly the more serious SDS (Sudden Death Syndrome) issue which could leave the user with a dead phone. I dunno if it is proven, but there are claims that certain custom kernels have started implementing protection against these.

Just like to ask, will you be doing the same as they are and put it some sort of protection against the two mentioned issues?

BTW, I love using your kernel!:D
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] guerouig:
thanks alot, this bit I know, my question is the fixing permissions, is it a simple select and validate or does it involve complicated stuff like command lines here or there. thanks again and sorry if I irritate by this beginners query.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] shadyr25:
I believe I have found a very annoying bug. No mistake about this kernel, it's the best I've used however, lately I've noticed that when I plug my phone on charge then unplug it, the phone refuses to go into deep sleep therefore causing battery drain. I have used better battery stats which points me to kernel wakelock called 'usb cb wakelock' at 90%. Any ideas on how to get rid of this?

One other thing I have noticed is that when my phone is plugged in charging, randomly it would detect driving mode, then disconnect, charge again, driving mode,disconnect, charge and the process continues. It also happened once whilst unplugged. Could it be a software or hardware failure?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] qavro:
none of them ever happened to me...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] shadyr25:
That's the thing, searched google, it's the minority that experience this. Only fix is to send it in to samsung repairs as the soldering on the usb seems to be the culprit apparently.

It never happened before, only since yesterday. Will see how it goes, temporary fix is to reboot the phone while it is unplugged.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] un4seen:
It's not a software issue. USB CB wakelock is raised when you connect to an USB host (computer). In this case it's caused by either dirt in the USB port causing shorts that the phone interprets as a charger/car dock connections, or an otherwise damaged USB port. I had the exact same problem with my S2, in my case a few seconds with compressed air solved the issue nicely, but sometimes it requires some precision work with a small needle and a tiny flashlight. Take out the battery before screwing with the USB port and be gentle, it's very delicate. Or restore the phone to stock and send it to Samsung.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] shadyr25:
I had thought so because when it went crazy, I blew into it and it was working as normal. Thanks for the suggestion and the phone was never connected to a computer, just wall charger. Also, it becomes normal after a reboot temporary until plugged in again. If it persists, I will as you have mentioned, return it to stock and send it to samsung :)

When you call (and you are on Samsung based Rom) you can use the app magnifier (little round speaker icon thing while calling) and press that to increase the call volume, try that.

The "Sudden Death" issue is caused by firmware on the (16 GB) VTU00M, revision 0xf1 eMMC (Embedded MultiMedia Card or internal memory if you like).

Wow with devices dying left and right, people who still use Siyah and know about the SDS issue have some ba**s. Siyah is a brilliant Kernel but without the fix in my opinion too dangerous to use. I can recall several cases just in the last days where devices died using the latest Siyah Kernel.

I agree. without the fix it is very dangerous. stay away... run... but also keep in mind that it is not more dangerous than before because that bug was always here since the beginning.

I could only read 9-10 pages back and it seems that the only major issue is SDS.

Well there you have it. :good::D

gokhanmoral a quick question, why is it not possible to tweak the in call volume of the front speaker in STweaks?

Why only rear speaker and headphones volume? This setting is so much needed on some ROM's. Specially on AOSP/AOKP roms. :(

WOW Gokhan, I think most of all of us are really glad to hear that, and truly glad to see you back, welcome back :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] gokhanmoral:
ok v1.8.7 is up.

it's not a big update. just rebased the kernel on i9300 update7 sources.

exynos-mem and sudden death issues are supposed to be fixed.

I have tested the kernel on cm10.1 (latest nightly) and samsung JB (as secondary) roms.

there are tiny changes in ramfs to move .secondrom folder back to sdcard root after you install cm10.1. so, you should not have any problems after installing cm10.1 for the first time.

I'll be around more next week and I have some new features in mind.

I hope my skills are not rotten after spending about a month on higher realms (.NET and Java) :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jody2k:
