No joy. Just boot loop.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
Running Nand. Will flash right after. Anything in particular you want us to be on the lookout for ?

Edit:

Nand Finished. Flashing now :)

EDIT:

Bootloop :( . Saw the Samsung logo for a second. Then rebooted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
Just boot and stability right now, looks like the guy above u got a boot loop :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] enzoevo:
Flashed the zip, wiped dalvik/cache. I'll try to get a log, but I don't the phone even connects to USB long enough.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
Well I was just about to flash this. Glad I read before I did

I already Nand. I need to find a stock kernel zip file to keep also so I don't have to restore everytime.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] iamikon:
Just do 'advanced restore' and restore the boot img. [MENTION=4325945]ktoonsez[/MENTION] I'll get a log in just a min.

----UPDATE---- [MENTION=4325945]ktoonsez[/MENTION] I can't get you a log, it doesn't boot up far enough to get recognized by the laptop :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
Yeah I thought about that right after I posted that last post... LOL... :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] iamikon:
I tried that and it didn't actually work, I think something was left over from the kernel flash cuz my wifi wasn't working, had to do a full restore
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
Did you run the kernel cleaner zip before you restored?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
Ya, it wont work since samsung still hasnt got rid of the .ko modules even though its a no-no in Kitkat so u got all my system modules stuck in there
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] iamikon:
Ah makes sense, I am more annoyed that I couldn't get you a log lol, the restore is no big deal really. Samsung is great but horrible all at the same time.

Oddly a full restore left me with a bunch of FC's lol. oh well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] enzoevo:
Restore boot.img and system. That should still save you time over a full restore.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
[MENTION=4325945]ktoonsez[/MENTION] had to step out to dinner with the family. Will be around a bit later to test. Thanks again for putting in the work on this :) . It is very much appreciated :good::good::good:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
Here is the kmesg file. The lag I have is really just at startup. I noticed because it takes a lot longer to settle in than when I was just running stock for some reason. Once it settles I don't see any lag then.

Missed the first rendition but the second is running great, haven't noticed a bit of lag. A big thanks for working on a 4.4 TW kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
I take that back a bit there is still a bit of lag that is noticable occasionally. Like typing out this message the key presses are delayed sometimes and when waking up and going to app drawer it is delayed.

I wasn't getting that on the stock kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] enzoevo:
Booted fast. Running smooth.

:cyclops: I really like the it :good::good::good: . If it's any indication of what's in the works, wow :D :D :D .
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
I figured u would :D. But its for the S4/S5 I'm surprised it worked on the S3 it all seems ok? I'll let u guys keep it if the CPU and GPU stiff is working ok? And there r a lot of things in there that r not gonna work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
A good portion of it works. But some stuff doesn't.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Kernel is running great, thank you for your continued support! Ktweaker looks amazing by the way, haven't tried changing anything yet so can't comment on what works and what doesn't, but it definitely looks great!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
But its not crashing right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
I just tried changing gpu voltage and it fc... It didn't close all the way out though, went to the back page... First time I've seen an app fc and not close all the way out...

I expected it would fc, guessing you don't have most of the things implemented from the 4.3 kernel yet
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
Thats a new feature in Kitkat, almost all apps FC but keep going.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
When you click on some of the settings it gives the " KTweaker app has stopped working" message. I believe it's because those settings haven't been implemented yet. But that's just my noob showing. When it comes to Kernels, it's like I'm watching a Magic show. I can see what's going on, I just can't figure it out.

But the Kernel itself is running great.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] enzoevo:
Same experience here with ktweaker. Fcs for some settings. I assumed because the kernel is stock the settings weren't implemented yet. Running great.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
So Ktoonsez am I right by saying that the kernel you posted is a stripped down version to see if it will boot and that a new one is coming with full functionality?

My lag went away completely so I don't know what it was unless it was a backup app running backing stuff up or something.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
That is 100% samsung stock source with all the debug removed. Next step is moving in the hundred thousand lines of code for all my stuff. I'm getting close. Was up till 2am last night and spent most of today on it too. As I said its no easy task. Cnexus is testing today's right now and so far so good.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] n2mschf:
Any chance of this eventually working on PAC?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
I thought I already had that in there, but it was for my S4. I just added it so it will be in next release. :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techdog:
Do you have a link to the post for it? (Sorry, I'm just a lazy SOB). Also, is 4.4.2 that much better than 4.3???? And, now, it seems we have a good kernel for it, too....

Thanks.

OP Updated

Change Log 05.12.2014

1. Merged in all the good KT stuff (should be 100%) into 4.4.2 for Touchwiz including:

2. OC/UC/UV, governors, schedulers, screen off stuff.....

3. Included my newest KTweaker from S4 and seems to be working just fine for the testers so I will keep it in there. If you have problems, remove it and reboot and then put the old one in its place from a previous release zip.

4. Updated GPU driver/governor code to my S4 standards so you should notice the GPU idle speed stay nice and low instead of Samsung code keeping it at 320 all the time.

5. Thats all I can think of.

Please remember that I do not own this phone anymore :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] evo3d6:
Flashes latest lost WiFi?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
Got a quick question. I have had this problem since TW 4.3. I will download a profile from the other Ktweaker thread and put it in my ktweaker/profile folder then restore to it. The governor and scheduler never change like it used to. It just stays whatever I set it last. It doesn't set at boot either and it has root permissions. It always tells me my CPU, governor, and scheduler settings are different than my table and asks me do I want to fix it. I say yes but it still doesn't change anything visibly in Ktweaker.

I have deleted the data and app in system folder and reflash the kernel in TW 4.3 and now this TW 4.4 one also and it doesn't fix my problem. I don't remember settings sticking since TW 4.2 to be honest for me at least.

Any thoughts?

Edit:

Also to add to that. I can manually change the governor and scheduler (all I have messed with so far) and it will stick through reboot I think, but I can't restore a already made profile someone made. I'm unsure if I could do one I made myself. I would just do everything manually but that is a pain.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rdavis429:
Flashed the latest and all is good in the world again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
Ok an update on my problem.

1) I pulled the old version of ktweaker from the TW 4.3 Kernel zip file.

2) I deleted the data and the ktweaker app in the system folder.

3) I then rebooted and installed the TW 4.3 kernel ktweaker app that I pulled from the zip file.

4) I then made it a system app through Titanium Backup.

5) I rebooted and then all profiles I had saved would apply and kept in the ktweaker.

I then went to see if I could do the reverse by side installing the new ktweaker app. So I repeated steps 1-5 but pulled the new 4.4 TW ktweaker app and installed it instead. The app still would not apply and keep the profiles. Is anyone else having this issue with the new Ktweaker app on TW 4.4?

The weird thing when applying different settings on the new Ktweaker app, even though the app doesn't show anything changed if I do a quadrant benchmark, the numbers change based on whatever profile I restored which is weird.

Any thoughts?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] enzoevo:
SE set to permissive? I noticed the indicator is missing from settings->About so I assume it is.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
Its permissive and shows it in the testers ROMs. Not sure what u r using.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
No clue what your ROM is doing to u. That's a good one.

Change Log 05.12.2014

1. Upgrade GPU driver/governors to my S4 version

2. Included my newest KTweaker from the S4, people have said that it is running just fine and love the updated interface. You will have to start over on your settings so be aware of that before flashing.

3. 99% of the data is now stored in /internal sdcard/KTweaker/ now instead of /data/data..... So when you need to clear out KTweaker, you need to do the normal "Force Stop" and "Clear Data" plus deleting the /internal sdcard/KTweaker/ folder

ENJOY THE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't download anything from the ktweakershop I always get the following error.

ktweaker-OTA

Error occured: http://ktoonsez.jonathanjsimon.com/sgs3/ktweakershop/(profile name).xml.

It happened with every profile/script
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
Me too, i just ended up going to the site manually and downloading, but again my issue is unless it is in the new xml format the new ktweaker a won't change anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techdog:
Thanks for all of your hard work. It seems to work great.

However, init.d does not seem to be working for me. I noticed it because I was running CB with 4.3 and then re-installed it with 4.4.2 and your kernel. But, it didn't seem to be working.

So, I wrote a small script and put it in /etc/init.d and renamed it 99test_init. Here is the script:

#!/system/bin/sh

/system/xbin/su -c "mount -o rw,remount /;touch /test_init"

When I run it in an adb shell (not as root), I get a test_init file in the root filesystem. When I reboot and check, I am not getting the file. I was using a similar shell script under 4.3 to test for init.d when I was having trouble with that.

Am I doing something wrong? Am I missing something? Is init.d not working under 4.4.2? Is there something else that I must do?

For the time being, I setup the CrossBreeder script to run under ROM Toolbox Pro at boot and that is working.

Thanks.

One last thing...

[MENTION=4325945]ktoonsez[/MENTION], you seem to have either updated the ktoonservative governor or added access to some other tweaking parameters. Can you explain what those are and what they are intended to control? Or, maybe I missed those previously and you can just tell me that I'm crazy. :)

Thanks.

I flashed the most recent release on deodexed ND8 and now I'm stuck at the KT747 boot logo. Does anyone have, say, a flashable copy of the stock kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Just dirty flash the rom again right over it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Roxie Mika:
That did the trick. Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techdog:
FYI.. For anyone having a similar problem... CNexus has in his KK post a flashable kernel now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
It was confirmed to me that the stock kernel in the deodexed ND8 build has init.d support.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techdog:
Is it JUST the deodexed build or also the odexed build???? I decided to try the odexed build this time just for something different because I never use anything these days that seems to care and am using Wanam for all of the mods that I need.

I don't see why it should make any difference, with regards to the kernel, that is.

Have you verified that init.d is supported in that kernel?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
[MENTION=4645794]CNexus[/MENTION] told me here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52586776 so I imagine just the deodexed and myself and others have confirmed it is working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] enzoevo:
[MENTION=4325945]ktoonsez[/MENTION], I noticed today this morning that I couldn't turn my screen off by pressing the power button. After troubleshooting, I remembered that I deleted my script that sets SE to permissive. Sure enough as soon as I ran the script I was able to lock my screen again.

I checked logcat and there were error messages about secure storage requiring original kernel binaries. These appeared every time I tried to lock the screen using the power button. It looks like SE is still enforcing or something related.

I can send you my logs a bit later when I have access to my phone if you need them.

Otherwise, everything seems great. My phone didn't respond well to your kernel under 4.3, but it's rock solid with all tweaks with 4.4. :good::victory:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techdog:
Ugh... Thanks... I'm guessing that I should be able to dirty flash the deodexed ROM over the odexed ROM without any issues.

What do you think?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] marcran75:
Probably be best to ask over there. I don't think so but I'm not as knowledgeable as a lot of others on here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
Download "Terminal Emulator" from Play Store and type this:

su

then type

getenforce

To see what the status is.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
Ktoonservative governor is not updated, its the same as before.

Is busybox in this folder on your ROM?:

/system/xbin/busybox

If so I will make another attempt at init.d support, TW is such a pain to make it obey.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] enzoevo:
After removing my script and rebooting, SE is permissive. Not sure how I got into that state earlier. I had reflashed the kernel, rebooted a few times, and nothing worked until I setenforce 0. The only other thing I did was plug into my car dock. Maybe there's some wonkiness with that?

I've rebooted about a dozen times now and it's sticking. So go figure it's working after I posted that there was an issue.

I'll see what happens after my drive home. If it doesn't repeat, we can just blame solar flares. ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techdog:
yes, busybox is where it is supposed to be. I also seem to have a scriptcalled 00ARCHIDROID_INITD in my /etc/init.d. I didn't put it there. I'm guessing it may have come in on the deodexed ND8 ROM. However, that doesn't seem to be working for init.d execution either....

Is there anything that you would need me to do?

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
I would advice against that. You are better off starting clean again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
Nothing I need from you, Ill try again to de-moronize the ROM with the 6th way to do init.d from TW4.3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techdog:
Yeah... I'm going to do a Clean to Install a New Rom from Philz and then re-flash the deodexed ROM... We'll see what that brings....

The parameters that I thought seemed new are boost_hold_cycles and cpu_down_block_cycles. I don't remember them from the old ktweaker (maybe I didn't notice them) and they aren't in my older text (not XML) versions of the profiles.

Default they seem to be set to 22 each. What are they in control of???

Thanks again for fixing the init.d issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
Your welcome man :D

boost_hold_cycles = How many cycles to hold touch boosters (22 is equal to about 1 second)

cpu_down_block_cycles = How many cycles to deny cycling down to a lower mhz to prevent yoyo effect of up and down Mhz speeds

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CaktusJack:
Does it matter if I apply my kernel settings with Trickster Mod or would it be best is I used KTweaker?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ktoonsez:
You can use whatever app you want, but you will be short changing yourself if you want to change any of the custom things that I have in my app. Trickster is a generic app to work on all kernels for just a few items.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] techdog:
Thanks. I found the flashable zips. However, none of them will work with this version. The issue is that the ram disk address has changed. I was able to modify the mkbootimg.sh file in the zip with the new ram disk address and that fixed the problems.

I have attached a flashable zip to change the splash screen to the Stock Galaxy s3 boot splash.

As always, YMMV.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CaktusJack:
Okay, thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MrBrady:
[MENTION=815654]stas333[/MENTION] how do I use the profiles in your sig? They download as .txt. When I try to apply them in KTweaker it doesn't do anything. Same thing if I change them to .xml.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
You can't just change the extension to xml. You have to reformat it into xml format for the new ktweaker to accept them. Currently only the profiles in the ktweaker app profile shop work. Any txt version or any of your own old ones will not work unless they are reformatted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MrBrady:
That's a bummer. I was hoping to find something that's stable.

I've tried three or four of the "balanced" profiles from the shop and they've all caused my phone to reboot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdaddy96:
Try ktoonsified. It works great and still zippy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MrBrady:
Thanks. I'll give it a try.

Earlier I was running stock settings, except for Ktoonservative and Zen, then underclocked to 1242. Ran surprisingly well, but idle battery life wasn't as good as I was expecting.
