Anyone else having issues when installing this kernel or is it still only me who is getting boot errors?

Can confirm the TW version doesn't work on my device. If I try the AOSP version would it mess anything up?

You cant use the AOSP one cus you are on a TW ROM. And just so you know, that ROM already comes with my kernel :good:

Ur tw right of the box bro but there nothing wrong ktoonzs rom it pretty awesome
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] haoleflip:
I know nothing is wrong with the kernel itself. I am just checking back to see if maybe anyone was having the same issues I was having last week and see if they fixed it. I really want to get on this kernel, but I am totally baffled as to why my specific phone won't take it. I am on Agat's right now but there is really no change in battery life and I am just eager to get ktoonsez's kernel as I have heard a lot of good things.

I know I am on a TW ROM, but my question is that if I try the AOSP kernel on a TW ROM would it mess anything up?

Ktoonsez gave you the answer. Dont install any kernel and install the people rom and in aroma installer select Kt747 instead of agat. Once booted to rom you are on this kernel. Sounds like before you were installing this kernel over itself and it wasnt done right. If you want this kernel just reinstall the peoples rom. Dont replace kernel it would already be loaded. The peoples rom has the three available kernels built into installer. Gapps is even baked in nothing needs to be installed after aroma installer completes.

I wasn't on TPR when I was having the issue before. I was on the sprint tw JB leak. I would install that and then install the kernel and got the boot loops. I then went to TPR and tried flashing it with the kernel selected in aroma, but still had boot looping. I reflashed TPR maybe 3 times more and still had the same issue. I then downloaded agat's kernel over ktoonsez's kernel and the phone booted up just fine on the first try. There is an issue with my phone that is keeping the kernel from working correctly.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
Try running the kernel cleaning script at the start of this thread, then reinstall TPR, picking the KT kernel.

Hopefully it will clean out some left overs which are causing your kernel problem.

Also do a factory reset before flashing TPR.

Good luck
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ramondel:
So if you are already on 'The Peoples ROM then just boot into recovery and dirty flash the ROM but this time select Agat kernel and see if this will boot up and work for a few days. If it runs fine for a few days then you can sue the KToonservative governor and tweaks that have been posted for this governor.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] haoleflip:
I just downloaded a fresh copy of the updated TPR build with the 3 kernels included (I used to be on the old one without the 3 kernel option) and it booted up on the first time no problem using ktsoonsez kernel. Now I have all my stuff restored and all settings where they need to be. When I setup the governor and I/O settings, are they applied right when I change them and exit out or do I have to reboot to apply changes? I'm scared to reboot lol.

With the amount of issues that you have had flashing the kernel to your phone may I suggest that you do not make any setting changes, just let the kernel settle for a day or so and then go to this site and tweak according to OP and let it sit for another few days:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] haoleflip:
So the answer to my question is yes or no? Do I have to reboot to apply setting changes or are they applied when I set them and/or upon exiting the ktweaker app?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
No you should not have to reboot, you should backup your settings and have it set immediately on boot.

But the longer you wait to reboot the more afraid you may become. I say reboot your device now, it should be good and then you can relax and enjoy your phone.

Your settings are good without rebooting
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] haoleflip:
Just rebooted and got boot loops again. I am just going to stick with Agat's until my new phone comes in. I figured I didn't want this one anymore since it has issues, so I sold it lol.

Please tell me one more thing. Can I use ktweaker with agat's? If so, how do I acquire a standalone .apk for it?

You know it sounds like something your adding or setting bud. You had it runnjng fine. Voltage, restoring system apps from any rom can cause probs and also restoring any touchwiz app onto aosp or aosp on touchwiz. Some have issues with just certain apps or restoring data.

GTOJim had best suggestion. Clean the ell out of all files on your phone. Keep nothing and redo peoples rom with Kt747. Once there sign in with gmail reboot and fix permissions and boot. There should be no boot probs. Installing a wrong gapps can cause reboots and not needed since TPR has gapps in it.

The issues dont seem to be your physical phone bud. How many roms have you installed? Utmost care should be taken to be sure ypur phone has no leftover files from last kernels and last roms.

I posted a thorough detailed list of steps as well as others. Why not try another recovery app. Ktoonsez uses TWRP i tjink with no problems and i use latest touch cwm recovery. Seems a mystery where all your reboots come from. They are computers essentially. You follow specific steps and the result is the same. Like math and equations as long as you use the right starting values and plug them into the equation the answer is always the same. If the answer is different the equation or starting values were different.

Qbking has many vids i suggest following one of his install videos.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] haoleflip:
Your guess is as good as mine. I have been loading ROMs on different devices for years and years now and have never had issues following directions or anything like that. I am going to list the EXACT steps I am doing. If anything is wrong, please correct me, but I just KNOW the problem is not on my end...

1. Enter cwm touch recovery.

2. Factory data reset.

3. Wipe cache.

4. Wipe Dalvik.

5. Installed TPR through aroma installer with ktoonsez kernel. Everything installs correctly, no errors, kernel installed complete.

6. Reboot system.

I have done these exact steps and still getting bootloop. Even when I DON'T touch ANY of the settings in ktweaker, I restart the phone and it gets stuck on "Samsung Galaxy S III" screen or keeps looping. I do have luck sometimes when I first install the ROM it will goto the "Samsung" screen, bootloops 1 time then starts up like normal. But as soon as I do another reboot, the boot issues begin. I don't know what else to do and I don't want to keep hassling people on this thread. I can already tell a couple of you are getting impatient so I am done dealing with this. It simply HAS to be this device.

I started out on the old CWM v5.0.0.4. Boot issues on that so I installed the newest CWM touch which I am on now. Still having same boot issues. I have tried Paranoid ROM, sprint jb tw leak, and TPR and having the same issues with that. You told me to clean out my storage and I did that and still same issues. All of the instructions you and others have given me I have tried already with no luck whatsoever.

It has got to be the phone.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
Seems your doing everything right but unfortunately it's not working. There isn't anything wrong with the rom or kernel, something else has to be causing your problem, likely it's something that is being left behind that a wipe isn't getting.

I've read people claim that they wipe 3 times because things get left behind. Try three times wipe cache, factory reset 3 times etc.

Your not going to like this suggestion if the above doesn't work, something has to be leftover from prior installs. In the developer forums there is a stock rom with root that is used with Odin. You might try using Odin to flash the stock rom with root, then flash The Peoples Rom with the KT kernel.

I had issue with my old phone and Odin was the cure, nothing else worked.

Good luck, please keep us posted on your progress.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Logix:
That's ridiculous you only have to wipe once
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] galaxys3man30:
No some of the best devs on here will tell to wipe 2 or 3 times data,system and cashes I've had this problem I wiped just once n my would never reset it self I was told to wipe 3 times n it worked then but not everybody has to do this but it is what it is thou we r trying to help him anyway we can
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] haoleflip:
OK! This time I went ahead and completely wiped my internal memory along with my SD Card so that I am starting with a completely clean slate and there are no files left over. I re-installed Official Sprint ICS with Odin and I'm doing the Sprint leak update to JB. From there I downloaded a fresh copy and installed TPR again with ktoonsez kernel. Annnnnnddddddd (drum roll) ...............

STILL have a boot issue, lol. ARRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'm never going to get to properly use this kernel! :mad:

In between flashes I wiped 3-4 times with each one. That made no difference.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
I would follow MW86 instructions to the letter, especially do not restore anything, not one single thing. First be very sure everything is working properly, as MW said, after several reboots. Follow MW instructions to the letter, he knows what he's talking about. After all your trouble, if I was in your shoes, I would not restore anything, I would download them from the play store, so everything is a fresh install, probably rebooting after installing a few at a time, just to be sure it's not a rouge app. If so it will be easier to pinpoint which is causing the problem.

We are not giving up on you, we want to get to the root of your problem, it may also help others down the road.

Keep us posted.

A couple of times using Odin to go back to stock didn't fix problems I was having with my old phone.

There was a rom called Eugene does not brick, battery was pulled when Odin finished, not allowed to boot, then Odin to flash back to stock. This procedure took care of everything, it was very rare Eugene does not brick was necessary.

I don't know the SGS 3 well enough to know if Odin does a complete wipe, leaving nothing behind. I would follow mw86 instructions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
Hey all, I know audio "popping" and "crackling" has been discussed ad nauseum, but my problem seems a bit different:

I had been running the boy's latest AOKP with this kernel, but decided to play with a TW ROM for a while to see if some of it's features might be enough to lure me from AOSP for a while. So, I flashed Team Sonic's latest FreeGS3.

I wiped everything first, booted, set up account and let it settle. I played some music (Apollo music app) and a podcast (BeyondPod app) and it sounded just fine. Then I went into recovery (TWRP's latest), cleared caches, and for good measure I ran the kernel cleaner in the OP. Next I flashed the kernel, cleared caches again, fixed permissions, and booted up. I let it sit for a while, then without making any changes or tweaks (leaving it stock voltages, governor, and clock speeds) I tried listening to audio on BeyondPod, Google Play Music, and Apollo. All players gave me popping / crackling. Both the external speaker and headphones gave me the same result. I have not tried bluetooth, however. I searched the ROM thread, but the problem only occurred after flashing the kernel. It also should be noted that that ROM offers an option to install Awesome Beats equalizer, which I did not do. I tried toggling the stock Music FX equalizer, but that did not help. I bumped up my voltages to no avail, and even upped my min clock speed, but it did not help until I got into the 500-600 mHz range and even then it was still was noticeable. It also happens on ringtones and notification tones.

Just to be sure, I went through all the fresh install steps on fresh downloads of the ROM and the kernel, same deal.

Like I said, I know a similar problem has been brought up and discussed endless times, but I feel like mine is different and would love some feedback. I have searched the new performance thread, the rom thread, and the kernel thread with search terms: audio, crackles, crackling, popping, etc., but have not found my particular problem. I have really tried to solve this myself and troubleshoot as much as possible, but I am at a loss.

Don't flame me, bro!

PS. Yes, I flashed the TW kernel, not the AOSP variant ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GTOJim:
Sounds like you covered all the bases, hopefully someone will know the popping cure.

I don't have anything useful to suggest, might turn off the popcorn popper while listening

to music. Sorry couldn't resist. Think I read of another person using stock settings having

the popping problem, didn't remember seeing a cure for it. Maybe you will need to use another

kernel, unless it just happens to be that combination of rom and kernel.

Good luck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
No answer here either but i think freegs3 i was on with the last kernel for touchwiz not this new latest of december and i never had that issue, i was set to Ktoonservative with an undervolt and min max 96-2106mhz. I used apollo and es media player of es file manager with no crackle. So i don't have a suggestion but if it helps the kernel before this new one on Freegs3 touchwiz i had no problems with audio playback. Maybe Ktoonsez knows if anything related was changed but im not sure about this december kernel ive only used AOSP december version which has bee running best yet out of all kernels. I had my best battery life so far perhaps from the touch screen tweak Ktoonsez added.

I hope someone solves it with you in anycase. Also the freegs3 i used was kne update atleast back i think it was updated alsp recently since i had used it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
To cover another base, I flashed the 11.13.12 KT747 TW kernel with the same results. Back to stock FreeGS3 kernel with no audio glitch. Too bad, because this kernel is superior in every other way. You added this glitch on purpose didn't you? Trying to get me back on AOSP, and ditch TJ, aren't you? ;) I'm still open to ideas. Hope this info has been / will be helpful, Ktoonsez.

I installed freeza's deodexed stock and put this kernel on it. Phone was stuck at 2106 for some reason, worked quick to get the new settings and voltages set and see no more issues. Weird problem though. also had a reboot in there.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] vestaviajag:
Does the popping and cracking in the music happen to everyone? I just noticed this was updated, I think I had this same kernel a few days ago (I had to wipe everything recently) for a month, and I don't remember any cracking or popping. I might be wrong, just curious before I flash the new version.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shinesthru:
Nope, just me apparently.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] haoleflip:
I just did all of the red text above to the T or "perfectly" and it's sitting on my table stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy S III" screen, the one that appears after the Samsung screen. I swear I did everything the exact way you described it. I even read some lines 2 or 3 times before performing the action. I did notice that during the transition from Samsung screen to Samsung Galaxy S III screen there was a little flicker or flash on the screen and then it showed the words and it's been sitting here for a little bit now. :confused: My phone is getting a little warm also. I'm not sure if it's because I just took it off of the charger or what. I'm just baffled here.

Yet everything else I've ever run on this phone works so flawlessly! I don't understand it. :(

The kernel, that happens to be the best one out for this phone, doesn't get along with my phone. Just my luck lol.

I mean, I'm not trying to put down Agat, because his kernel works very nicely and it might just be the one I have to go with, but I am really just wanting to compare battery life with different settings and also Agat's doesn't let you go to 2.1ghz just yet (or so I've heard) and I've heard such good things about ktoonsez kernel, too and I'm just gaaahhhh lol.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Or return merchandise authorization in any case haloflip maybe you do have faulty hardware, im sorry it didn't help. Perhaps the baked in kernel doesn't allow you to boot into touchwiz immediately after install. Same issue happens if you phone as is right now do the following?

Boot recovery

Wipe dalvik

Wipe cache

Mount all partitions

Go to install from zip

Run kernel cleaner zip

Run Kt747 zip

Wipe dalvik

Wipe cache

Go to mounts mount all

Advanced fix permissions

Reboot phone option

Its weird that your phone would not boot after aroma installer completes with kernel install of Kt747 included. Its hanging at rom load. The above is for a clean install of kernel and you have a clean touchwiz rom install since your on tpr latest with agat. If the abive don't work just do the same above again and use the kernel cleaner but install agat again instead. If it doesn't work all hope is lost :( if its too much hassle after all you have been through that would be understood. Goodluck bro. If this dont work agat works and as Ktoonsez said if you really want this kernel perhaps see if the phone can be replaced due to defect. Its not a defect they cover but maybe you can find one they do.

I was thinking I had a hardware issue, too. I went through most of the pages in the thread and didn't see many with issues and definitely no issue as big as mine. I'll just ride it out on Agat's for the time being.

Well, like I stated earlier, the phone is kind of sold. My friend is itching for one and I told him about mine and what's going on. He's not a techie person like me so he won't be modding anything. I'm probably just going to get it back to stock and sell it to him and use the money for a new one. I just hope it doesn't crap out on him any time soon that would suck. I wanted a white one anyway, so this will be my chance to start fresh again. Thank you everyone for your help and guidance. It sucks it didn't turn out well, but when I get my new phone I will report back with it and hopefully it works out!
