[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
@Everyone

If you want to use this kernel and get accurate result, DO NOT USE SETCPU. for somereason it's doing weird things and isn't working correctly. USE VOLTAGE CONTROL. it works great. Ktoonsez has already explained this a few times in this thread. :D

I can confirm i don't get the reboot or lockups or bootloops anymore as soon as i lock the frequencies, whereas i did before checking it. I had the overclocking steps turned off, tho, and on the bootloops the freq was 1512.

Force stop ktweaker app, then delete it from /system/app. Reboot all the way back into OS. Then boot to recovery and reflash kernel. (Make sure that file is gone when you reboot back into OS before reflashing)

Looks like you're typing from the phone based on your sig. Does it mean its rebooting while you're already in OS or boot looping while its just coming up?

Re: [KERNEL][AT&T][AOSP/Touchwiz][JELLYBEAN][3/27/2013] KT747 - LJ7 - KTweaker

That explains why mine bootlooped yesterday after doing a bunch of web browsing, it stopped when I let it cool off, but didn't think much of it after that. Good to know what the issue was.

I have always had "lock frequencies" set, but I suppose that doesn't take effect until the boot finishes.

Thanks, ktoonsez!

Since applying the thermauld.bak fix and flashing the latest 3/30 update, Im back to normal.

Ktweaker FC'd one time when I first opened it and enabled OC steps...made me a little nervous...but came back without further issue.

Settings stick and no bootloops or any noticeable overheating.

Successful threw on 3/30. Working great. Renamed system/bin/thermald to thermald.bak. Wiped Cache/Dalvik before and after the flash. Wiped Ktweaker data/force stopped, deleted the Ktweaker from system/app. Applied REricks 3/31 Asswax Zen and working great so far. I'll post up results in Kernel Tweaks thread
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
Just a heads up guys, everybody that was worried about renaming deleting thermald, the kernel does have a built in module that is functioning (its msm_thermal). It does a pretty crappy, meaning it is pretty agressive and messes with you setting your own Max Mhz but does do the job. I am still planning on finishing my own thermal control which will work much better :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] savagebunny:
Good stuff. I wasn't worried about thermald. I know my phone is hot when I feel it through my UAG case. So I just let it cool off. Not much of a issue for me. Can't wait till the next kernel release. May have to switch to AOSP. Touchjizzer isn't a cool nickname :p

Same here D:

Normally on Koonserative my CPU rests at the lowest 5ish steps no matter what I'm doing, but with the latest my CPU jumps around like crazy when doing things that aren't even that CPU intensive at all. This results in pretty bad battery life for me also.

Anyways, cant wait for the new build/test which should be coming today/tomorrow hopefully then my CPU will relax and stay at the lower levels!

No reboots so far! The last build I had a weird problem when I tried to switch to ktoonservative, my phone would freeze and reboot. That issue us gone now! Although, whenever I open KTweaker using ktoonservative, it tells me that my governor adjustments don't match and asks if I want to reapply them. I remember having that happen before, and seeing people post about it, but the resolutions for others didn't work for me.

So now at 378 it doesn't jump around, but if I just scroll up and down really fast in KTweaker app, the CPU ramps up, sometimes even to my highest step 1809, and I feel like this did not happen before with some of the older builds.

Does this happen with you guys, just go into KTweaker General, and scroll around up and down, and does your CPU jump up, is this normal?

Absolutely, I I followed the instructions word for word.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Its not a myth, maybe it won't help that user but one time my battery percent said 50% no matter what I charged it. I even mentioned it to Ktoonsez at the time in the many testing sessions I have had. It can get corrupted if phone crashes very badly. I had a shutdown and it ended up doing that to me. Only fix was to delete that battery stats and start fresh. I am going by personal experience and no article will tell me it can't happen, it happened to mine. I've even had a issue just as the user above months ago where percent said higher than it was and just shutdown on me because it was at 1% battery in truth. I won't argue the fact either, I am going by personal experience and not just throwing random nonsense around. I will not discuss my take on it farther. It is my opinion only and therefore is not fact. People can decide for themselves. Thank you for the article though.

* further reading of that post covers no scenario where the battery stats get corrupted from a sudden crash or reboot. That article is just someone posting their opinion too. The fact is if the file gets corrupt no amount of charging to one hundred percent and unplugging will fix the stat as that is the only suggestion that post ends up stating. There is no other recommendations out there when battery stats get corrupt so for me the old method still fixes those issues immediately on my handset.

Not at all. It will essentially disable the safeguard from overheating. Renaming it to .bak accomplishes the same thing. It will disable the thermal protect programmed in from Samsung.
