I'm confused with the spread of results but

I think we can agree on conclusion.

Stock repacks have better, more steady, results.

Well, more work for me.

I really wanna run this kernel. But sadly I rely on 4G :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
As you can see in last few pages some have very decent speed some have very bad speed.

Try it and see for yourself.

With mobile odin or CWM recovery it takes minutes if not seconds to flash a kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MiguelHogue:
And make sure you update your profile and prl

A .agat folder in /data/ was not created for profiles and I'm unable to create one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sloth:
Try using root explorer the permissions may not be set correctly in es file explorer or use these steps to set up es file explorer correctly

Open the included ES File Explorer app

Click "Menu", "Settings"

Be sure "Up to Root", "Root Explorer", and "Mount File System" are all checked
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
Ya it is in root explorer and I did have those boxes checked in es, I guess it just doesnt support it. Also, have you had luck with the profiles actually sticking?

Thanks for your help bigd
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sloth:
Both should support it I used root explorer clicked data then menu/create new file .agat

and yes they will stick once you have the .agat file and eztweaks :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
Ya, sorry I wasnt clear, I found the .agat folder in Root Explorer. Ill try deleting the .agat folder, make a new one to see if profiles stick. Will report back.:good:

Edit: My profiles dont stick. It must be the rom im currently on, tersussatus lightweight

IF you have other cpu 'tweakers' they will overide ExTweaks after boot up.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32835468&postcount=2333
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
I don't currently have another tweaker but after reading your post, is it required to boot after setting profiles? This may be why they are not sticking.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
try reflashing the kernel after you've made the .agat folder. then reboot again for good measure. then make some tweaks and see if they stay.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
Nope, tried it, didn't work. Even tried reflashing the rom, no luck. It's a good thing to know though, that I am not the only one having this problem:). Others have mentioned profiles on Extweaks, even on other kernels saying that they just don't stick. I found a solution. I got Setcpu, and profiles set fantastically.:good:. I still love this kernel!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Glad you got it. I've just never had our been able to duplicate that problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Which ROM are you running? It's init.d tweaks may be overwriting extweaks.

The boot order is:

1. Extweaks

2. Init.d tweaks (usually setup and installed by the rom developer)

3. Third party tweaks (like setcpu/tegrak/rom toolbox, they get loaded last)

Number 3 will overwrite #2.

Number 2 will overwrite #1 and so on.

In other words, it's like getting into an argument with a woman. They get the last word and they are always right. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
That last comparassment is so true and I have to agree 100%.

I dont have an init.d folder or other apps that would touch cpu or profiles. Im guessing that maybe tweaks are somewhere else in this rom, hidden from me.

Im currently on LightWeight rom. To be honest I never ever ever had luck with extweaks. Either tweaks don't stick, or they do but not like they should. This is just a sign that me and extweaks are not pals and our relationship has to come to an end even though I thought he was a nice guys I had to marry setcpu instead:cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I think that is TW ICS based so it must be nearly stock with no tweaks at all. You have to go with what works I guess. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
So does that mean the changed made by placebo with overwrite the values in extweaks? In other words I am running at say 900mhz max cpu with extweaks. I then flash placebo which has max value at 1200 and boot up the phone. It should now be running at the 1200 for subsequent boots? And if I change extweaks to say 1000, will that be the new value on bootups or will it revert back to the 1200?

All too confusing to me. LOL
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
The Placebo init.d tweaks will overwrite extweaks since they are run last.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boXerrumble:
Well, I ran 0.6.3 Friday through this morning, and I've got to say, while my phone runs slightly smoother with it on my setup than 0.5.4, the battery life is much worse.

I get about 22 hours on 0.5.4 with 2 hours of screen time, while on 0.6.3 I'm getting about 14 hours with about an hour and a half of screen time.

My setup is running stock rooted FH13, and I haven't ran FI27 because for some reason my phone's performance becomes sluggish. Because the version 6 kernels are running FI27 source, will better performance be achieved on a FI27 based rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Thats possible. Can't say for sure tho.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] milky1112:
Heres my performance on agats kernel on _dan's tersus stats rom (never can spell it lol) Current results (phone at bout 20% currently and still going strong)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rsngfrce:
I don't understand how this works, but is Agat 6.3 source controlling which version of BusyBox I have? I have 1.20.0cm7. 1.20.0 is listed as an unstable version on the Busybox website. Also, it doesn't work with the V6 Supercharger script (which says it can't do math properly). The worst part is that I cannot change BusyBox versions because it always reverts to v1.20.0 when I reboot. I'm now using Zepplinrox' script that load my desired version after reboot. Is BusyBox controlled by the kernel or the rom (rooted FI27 stock, which says it includes BusyBox 1.20)?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Busybox binaries are in kernels ramdisk

/initramfs/sbin folder.

Every time you start your phone it loads kernel and all parts of it.

Thus you have the busybox that is packed into kernel.

Unless you put some post boot script to replace it you will always revert to that busybox binary.

If there is better, more up to date binary available please link me to it and I'll replace current binary in kernel and upload new one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 5FOOTER:
http://www.busybox.net/ try that it maybe what your looking for it says 1.20.1 and 1.20.2 are stable.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Thanks for link.

It's source for busybox. I'll have to compile it myself.

Let's see if I can do it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rsngfrce:
Yeah, the site that 5FOOTER references is where I got the info that version 1.20.0 is an "unstable" version. The newest version is 1.20.2 which is "stable" and I was told is a good version. 1.20.2 is what is what I am now installing by script after every reboot.

If 1.20.0 is what the Agat kernel is installing, I think it would be nice I if you could update it to the latest version, at least because 1.20.0 is listed as "unstable", whatever that means. Based on his V6 script, Zepplinrox says 1.20.0 can't even do math (version 1.20.0 gave an me an AWK error when running his V6 script, though this is beyond my level of unerstanding).

I'm not sure what you actually need to update this. If the busybox.net site doesn't provide it, the version of 1.20.2 that I am using I installed with Stericson's busybox app from the Play store. I've attached the version I am using, if that helps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
it does help.

Adding it to ramdisk and will compile kernel now.

Will upload new version after testing.

Will give it a run of a day.

Expect new kernel tomorrow if everything goes good.

Thanks for the binary file.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
That's interesting I can't wait to try it out. The app Mybackup always tells me on the first launch that the busybox is outdated and needs to be updated to 1.20.2 to run properly so I have used the busybox installer from the market to perform an upgrade to get rid of the nag.

This is first sammy phone that has a bomb GPS.

Instant lock (2-5sec) anywhere.

Inside, outside, in casinos. That's something I'm not used to. :laugh:

Screen, speed, smoothenes (with my kernel), options...

The list can go on. As much of difference between Epic 4G and E4GT it is even more between E4GT and GSIII.

I'm glad I made a move.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GWashington:
Haven't seen any mention of any additional hard bricks when attempting to flash a JB ROM for a couple weeks. Now that this kernel is based on F127, with the emmc bug removed by Samsung, wouldn't that eliminate all potential prior flashing risks on the E4GT? I realize that until the recent bricks experienced while flashing JB, this kernel was considered safe, but as discussed a couple weeks back in this thread, the potential for hard bricking seemed to still exist, rare as it was, especially with JB. At least that's what I took from all the back n forth :)

Looks like the S3 community just picked up one heck of an asset! Thanks for all of your work & help agat!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
May be we don't hear any new stories beacause after our warning no one using this kernel to flash JB.

And samsung didn't remove the line from source. I did remove it as soon as I got the source and forgot about it. And when was about to upload I looked for it and couldn't find. So I thought is wasn't there.

After Entropy512 and Garwynn checked the source and said the line is still there I did go back to original source (extracted from zip again) and found the line as well.

So until PROVEN otherwise I would suggest to consider this kernel unsafe when it comes to flashing JB roms.

Here's a slightly off topic question. Do you think your SIII Android_peeing.zip would work with this latest kernel and you FI27ROM? The older one froze on boot.

Thanks for the continued work on this device too!

0.6.5 is up and running

Flashed the 6.5 tar and ExTweaks found no compatible interfaces (kernel).

Flashed zip and got the same. :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Let me check

Edit: Gimmi few min to run some tests.

Edit2: I hate to bring the bad news but the problem is in busybox.

Did recompile kernel 2 each way. With old busy box and with new one.

With old busy box ExTweaks and logcat and shell are working.

With 1.20.2 nothing works. I don't know why. I'm just stating the facts.

It's too late to look for any other solution. So I'll just compile again with 1.20.0 and replace links for now.

Once we figure out why 1.20.2 is not working ( may be needs new su binaries as well) I'll add it to the kernel.

Sorry, just checked an I do get an incompatible message from extweaks on Agat 6.3 with my force reinstalled version of 1.20.2, it is not something I had checked. Android Tuner does list all the governors though, so it would appear to be a problem between 1.20.2 and extweaks?

Have you tried to update your SU binaries as well?

May be try SuperSU with it?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MarcAntonyy:
Apologies for the nub question, but I just flashed 6.5 and have uninstalled SetCPU.

So without any CPU apps installed, this means the profiles located in /data/.agat are in effect and if I want to change governor, clocks, etc I just go in with a text editor and make the changes manually.

Secondly, for someone who runs their phone like a beast and goes through 3 charged batteries a day, is the default profile a safe bet? Or are there any popular tweaks/changes I'm unaware of?

Thanks. And huge thanks Agat.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Can't help with the edits but it doesn't sound like that's the way to go about it.

I guess the first question would be what rom you are running. Unless you are pure stock, the dev should have included init.d tweaks with the rom that you should run for a little while for a base comparison until you feel a little more adventurous to try aftermarket apps like SetCPU or Extweaks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MarcAntonyy:
Oh, ok. I'm running MIJJz ICS GOODNESS 4.0.4 FI25.

The way I understood it is that SetCPU will essentially disable any init.d tweaks made, which is why I thought to uninstall it.

(and my thanks button is max'd, so I'll come back around when its turned over =p)
