Hi, Im currently new here and also am currently new to flashing and rooting. Im using S3 international

I just have a question

1.) I just rooted my phone using odin, I have CWM and SuperSU installed. is it safe to install the kernel from the phone or do i need to install it through pc? anyone can give me instruction on how to install(pc/phone)?

2.) setcpu and extweak and voltage control, how big of a difference when not using them?

3.) how is everyones thought on this kernel?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] danarama:
I do this. Leave stweak then set in setcpu. Works fine
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mmse88:
Stweak will lead SetCPU.

For instance: If you under voltage at Stweak then SetCPU will follows. I think we should use Stweak as our prime tweak tool or else both might get conflicts :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] z00100:
Using this kernel and so far so good.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Bananaz:
First of all awesome job on the kernel.

One thing now, the new audio Presets and Equalizer are really bad compared with the sound we can get with the old settings, cant set it to make the sound so good like before, cant find the depth like before :(

I know is more user friendly and a little less "geeky" but the customization is not present like before, or maybe its just me cant figure it out.

Anyone notous this or just only me?

But awesome work on kernel. Respect.

Thanks

For those who are wondering and keep asking the same question repeatedly in regard to siyah kernel v1.4. READ THIS!

Siyah Kernel v1.4 is backward compatibility in the first place.

- If you're still on older firmware like: XXBLFB, XXBLG1 and XXBLG3 -

No issue

with siyah kernel v1.4 because these 3 firmwares are from the same build and changelist.

- If you're already on newer firmware like: XXBLG6 and XXBLG8 -

No issue

with siyah kernel v1.4 because these 2 firmwares are from the same build and changelist and Wi-Fi connection issue have been fix!

- For Galaxy S3, CMW v6.4 is separated from siyah kernel, if you want flash CMW v6.4 first then flash Siyah Kernel v1.4

- As for camera firmware: You will need to upgrade it from stock kernel first then flash to any custom kernel and there are two different camera module / sensor for S3, GD is from Sony and ZD is from Samsung.

XXBLFB, XXBLG1 and XXLBG3 - Cam FW: GDFF01, GDFF02 or Cam FW: ZDFF02

XXBLG6 and XXBLG8 - Cam FW: GDFF03 or Cam FW: ZDFF03
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Mopral:
XXBLG8 --> GDFF03 (just made the update a few hours ago...)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] knights.JayTana:
+1...Gokhan put sTweaks there for a reason... We should use it...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yusei:
I can confirm that...

Anyone with GDFF03 can test a CM10 based rom? My camera didn't work on CM10, and i've tried everything possible.

I think this is a issue caused by GDFF03.

If someone test, plz report here or via PM.

Thanks

i understand stweaks is there for a reason but it can only undervolt max of -100mv. Setcpu i can lower up to 150mv for some frequencies. But just not sure if it saves due to STweaks stating no undervolt
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] droidphile:
Tweaks on Siyahkernel is not limited to what's possible with STweaks app. Possible-values-wise and tunables-wise. One main purpose STweaks serves is a simple GUI for people who are lazy/doesn't know to use init.d scripts.

If you set UV using SetCpu it will be applicable even if STweaks say "No undervolting".

Remember - STweaks applies settings during initial stages of boot only. Settings from other apps such as SetCpu (even init.d scripts) are applied later, so that they can override STweaks.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] KennyLegend:
GD is from Sony and ZD is from Samsung

What does this mean exactly for us, the end user?

How would we have a Sony cam fw on our phone?

Does it matter what we have?

Does this kernel support custom boot animations?

You are the only one saying that.the EQ and the presets are Not compared. You can choose presets or EqIng by your self. Choose the eargasm preset and you will be happy with that. Maybe you have a problem to figure out how the eq for example works. The sound feeling it not changed, the values are the Same like bevor. I dont know which headphone you have but you can not have a preset which sounds good for all of us you know?

Just play with it.

Try this:

Use eq, choose Band 1 = 11....Band2 =7....

Band3 = 3 or 4 (middle frequence)....Band4=2......Band5=3. Apply and have fun. One tipp from me: set 3d effect to 2 or 3 and you have a more Stereo feeling. Or just use eargasm preset with 3d setting to 3.

I hope i could help you

Answers for yr questions:

1. Yes it is safe to install it thru CWM. just click here. download the 'DOWNLOAD ZIP (for CWM Recovery)' file and put it in yr SD card and go2 CWM and in that flash an update option. navigate where u've loaded this kernel file and flash it. :oThat simple.

2. those are better if left untouched as guys like me n u :o are beginners out here.. :p

3. version 1.4 is super smooth and audio tweaks are ultimate. flash n have eargasm :p

Hit thanks if any1 helped u :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] PacketJ:
How about UV? I have mine UV'ed at -100mv, would it be ok? I was using phenomenal kernel before and all I want for now is battery life, stability and smoothness. Doesn't have to be super fast, but just smooth and stable.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mmse88:
I does that as well. Stweaks set -100mV but my SetCPU actually under voltage a little bit more then that.

For example: 1000MHz on Stweaks -100mV should be 988mV but in SetCPU I set it to 975mV. There shouldn't be any problem as least I use that config over a month without any problem :)

You've come to the right place :D
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Franc38:
You can Undervolt (max -100mV in STweaks, I guess for safety reasons, since if you undervolt too much you may not be able to reboot and need to adb the changes back) Siyah Kernell all you like.

You can also underclock, (100MHz min instead of 200MHz, and say 1200 MHz max instead of 1400 MHz... You may even try 1100, but really since the proc is rarely used at full speed unless in a game/demanding app, that won't change battery life drastically).

As for smoothness, well, yeah, it's there!

---------- Post added at 10:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 AM ----------

A slightly different take on that question...

1°) Best way of installing stuff on a Samsung phone is using "mobile Odin" (it's available for free, here, with all the necessary explanations, or paying on the Play Store, with some additional bells and whistles). It doesn't increase your "flash counter" and is way more "fool proof" than flashes from recovery. In some occasions there's been multiple problems flashing something with CWM when all flashes in mobile Odin were perfect.

2.a°) You may get a better battery by a margin of say 10% tops, but you may also increase by 10 - 15% the top performances of your phone (not at the same time, sadly). So it's really good using these.

2.b°) Since STweaks is working at boot and being specially designed for this kernel is you tool of choice, here... You may keep SetCPU but it's heavier and not better.

2.c°) "Safe but nice" settings for saving battery would include setting the cap to CPU frequencies at 1200 MHz, undervolting at -50 or -75 mV (start at -50, see if the phone is real stable, with no freezes or weird lags, and if so, then move to -75 mV... ). You may also undervolt GPU by -25 or -50 mV at each level. Overall that would be a good "battery preserving setting" not costing you a lot on perfs.

You may, on the other hand, increase top CPU freq to 1.5, 1.6, 1.7 or even 1.8 GHz (go progressively, check stability before and after increases, not all SGSIII can handle those freqs well, stop as soon as you see unstable behaviour) and reduce the undervolting to -25 mV or even use no undervolting, to get max perfs.

3°) This kernel is great... Not that it's giving you much better perfs or battery than any other kernel, they're all mostly on the same level for now on these points. But it really gives you plenty of control on the "typical kernel options" via STweaks, and it adds superb audio improvement and control on it -again via STweaks- so that really is a GREAT plus !

I hope that this clarifies a bit the situation for you!

Seems it's two different versions of the same Samsung sensor. We're yet to observe a Sony sensor although we know it should exist.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] KMino:
No problems here with the camera with LG8, Siyah 1.4. Upgraded the camera firmware from F02 to F03, on first boot, then installed Siyah.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] suntzu123:
I turned off 2 cores, put clock to 600MHz. It's perfect smooth with go launcher.

1. There is no point for running 4 core's or using 1,4GHz. There is no app except flash that can use such a power. 600-800MHz x2 Cores is perfect fine

2. UV make big deal at stress. Better result you can get when you lower clock to speed that you need, and probably more UV you can get, at lower clock.

3. There is no point to set 100MHz instead of 200MHz. It will make less smooth. CPU take 2x less powet at 100MHz than 200MHz. Problem is Deep Sleep and running apps at background. Almost all app using tracking system and that take a lot of power. But when screen is on-> CPU at 200MHz IDLE take not much more power than nothing. When you stress, CPU go UP.

4. There is only one element that you can save a lot of power. GPU! I don't know how to lower clock's here. There are maybe 2-4 games that need Mali-400 at 200MHz.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Code124Y:
huh?

i usually -125mV at cpu, -100mV at gpu, no lag, no freeze, every game run well, dual core running at 800mhz really problem for gaming, but whn needed, 4core for max 800 should be ok.

depant... because i dont really know how the voltage runover the cpu and board...
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] davelinders:
Do I need OV for OC example GPU 800 volt to 825?

Or does that nothing?

I did -100 for cpu on everything and -50 for gpu.

But set cpu to 1500mhz.

But I want more power so shall I do +100? and +50 gpu?

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] kremator:
Hello

My observations regarding Siyah kernel are:

kernel after UV on 200 Mhz sleeps very well I am satisfied with its deep sleep (like 3-4% loss overnight with Plane mode activated) but on SGS2 it was even better(1-2%)

kernel on wake state even with UV uses too much energy for example when the screen is on it often jumps straight to 1400 Mhz without no clear reason (no active aplication except Voltage Control to monitor). I think it depends also on i/o best is noop as sometimes it takes extra steps to get to 1400 but as for now the 1400 Mhz step takes up to 40% of cpu time. That is much more then it was on SGS2, and it is in my opinion the main reason for quick battery drops when screen is on also the phone is getting warm after quite short time even when i am just browsing the web (that was not the issue on SGS2 as it needed games to get hot) (also I was expecting longer battery times as it has more juice then SGS2, but as for now battery times are similar)

So I am thinking it is too early to really squize the juice of the SGS3 as I got the results I am speaking on SGS2 after one year of trying flashing and the hard work of developers who deserve all the gratitude they are getting and more.

Also if anyone has any advice on the issues mentioned above fell free to speak now :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jody2k:
Whoops wrong button srr*
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] davelinders:
My bad there is no OV.

Just no UV and I set it to 1600 and +25v for GPU now checking if Dark knight rises is smooth.

So far better now but here and there a little lag.

What's better for me deadline or cqf?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] hykhleif:
hey guys as I mentioned earlier I bought extweaks plus, so would having stweak and extweak installed cause any conflict.

so which one should i use to setup my device as I don't like to mess things ups, WHICH has more control over the other stweak or stweak
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] jody2k:
For the moment it doesnt really matter which one you use, for the future gokhan will add new features in stweaks
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Franc38:
No conflict... It's just them sending info to the system at boot up... Now obviously one goes first (depends, I suppose) and will be superseded by the second... So it's best they give same info.

Now, I never bought ExTweak (but then neither did Gokhan, if I've followed correctly) so I can't say about the paid version, but I'd stick to STweaks, mostly as it's the app Gokhan develops for his kernel, so it'll be richer and better adapted in the future. For the moment, they're very much the same, though.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mmse88:
I personally think cqf is faster then deadline. But I like sio more :D

I like STweaks but this is what I found out. I set the EQ setting on Eargasm. Very good sound but when I do something else on the phone the setting is back to normal. It stays only on this setting and it is with every setting when the player stays on. When the phone fall back in dark screen the setting is gone and it is normal sound. What can this be???

I a had also strange things after reboot. Now I did a full wipe and back to stock. I set the Phone in STweaks on Eargasm and that is good. But when I go to my normal screen or the phone falls in save battery mode the setting is not there anymore. When switching back to player the Eargasm setting gets back. And when it is getting back I mean that you hear it. The setting is just there in STweaks.

I was getting terrible battery life with the other SigahKernels that were in beta phases till 1.4 For some magical reason, 1.4 is giving me amazing battery life. It properly lets my phone go into deep sleep.

I didn't use the phone that much, but I was losing about %10 every 2 hours in standby on the other kernels. now I'm only losing a very tiny bit in standby. I'm scared of flash any other ROM or Kernel in the future because something was done awesomely right this time for me! This kernel is great with standby for the battery.

and then I open STweaks to use EQ setting and aply it. .it's also normal.

But you just return to samsung music player, and press back button.

or just let phone screen off ... My EQ setting had gone........it's true....

If I don't return to samsung music player, EQ setting is normal even screen is off....
