[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Janis:
Just thought I'd add, since it's not here, I preserved root with Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper: temporary unroot to get the update. Root restored just fine.

I also had repeated failures, and based on what was failing on the OTA for the Lenovo ThinkPad, I put all the stock apps I had "removed" to a folder on my sd card back in the system folder, and things went well.

(It was getting the stock recovery to flash via Odin to replace my early version of CWM and resetting the flash counter that was the bulk of the work - not that it was hard, but it was definitely more than using Voodoo).

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
Jeff(or Hefe if you prefer)

Nice work here. Just what we needed. I have one request(which if you know me you know I hardly ever make them). Any way in a future release you might be able to get Badass as a governor and sio as a scheduler? I find that combo works incredibly well an another phone of mine and would love to see how it treats the 4g. Also what are you using to set UV if System Tuner ain't sticking? I really hate Set CPU so I'm hoping for another recomendation. Thanks for this.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Beastmode:
well if you have your source up(just saw u do) ill download it and change the bootsplash and build it :) thanks bro

Is this safe to use on the Nexus Beam Rom?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] solrac1212:
yes already tested by me
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Let me look into finding and understanding the Badass governor, as well as the schedulers. I try to be conservative and only put things in that I understand, rather than just throwing in the kitchen sink. I agree that both governors and schedulers can impact both user experience as well as battery life.

OK, I found a better source of badass from showp1984 / "Bricked"

On the UV table, I need to work through how Linux deals with what I am used to knowing as sysctl as well as what the various apps expect.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rbedell:
Is it possible to backup the kernel before flashing yours? I tried to use the SGS Kernel Flasher from the market place but it isn't compatible with TWRP. Or is it recommended/manditory that I completely reflash the OS, then flash the kernel, then just restore apps using Titanium Backup Pro? Still getting the hang of it... I just have it burnt in my memory not to restore a backup over a different kernel... :) thanks to bhundven :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Do a nandroid prior to flashing so if something breaks you can revert.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
TWRP will backup your kernel. You will also need a backup of /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko Using TWRP to backup /system will cover you there.

I flash more kernels every day than I want to admit. The kernel is in a different partition than the system or data, so the chance of corruption of your "ROM" is pretty small. The only file changed in /system should be the bcm4329.ko (WiFi/Bluetooth module).

Great kernel! I am using setcpu and changed 1.2 to .1 all down 100 voltage and every thing is running great and better battery life.

flashed this kernel couple days ago, its good.

but......sad to say 4 me, i dont see any difference in battery life (running cm9, kernel it came with lasted about 16hours with wifi on and only txting), with this kernel my phones battery life only last about 8-10hours (thats with and without wifi on), trying my phone on 200/1400 and at 55% (unplugged it about 7 1/2hours ago), but my wifi has not been on. (i also saw a very bad drop rate, lost 17% battery life in about hour 1/2(wifi was off and it was just sitting)not sure if its because its set at 200/1400 or something else, and i have no other apps running in the background), im not to worried about it since im trying to buy a new phone soon, so for now im trying to make the best i can out of this phone.

any tips to help increase battery life with this kernel overclock/underclock wise?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Glad to hear it is solid for you!

Have you tried switching to the smartassv2 governor? It is not set as default when the kernel boots (you want a robust kernel when you have to boot into recovery).
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Here is the frequency/voltage table in the as-shipped Hefe kernel v0.8.0 and v0.8.1 ("stock" column). It is already 25 mV lower than the Samsung settings for the T-959V

Quick question, what does it mean when it says that this kernel doesn't contain PowerVR drivers?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
The PowerVR driver is an alternate GPU driver that Raver enabled for the GB kernel. Apparently they improve graphics performance.

(Please PM me if I did not credit the right people on the integration. See following posts for better history of the changes.)

Posted from my AOKP-ified SGS4G
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Hrm? Alternative to what?

PowerVR is the GPU we have, made by Imagination Tech. PowerVR SGX-540.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] solrac1212:
I think jeffsf means that Raver replaced CPU rendering in GB kernel with GPU PowerVR
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
I think what raver did was modified the powervr libraries in his vb rom.

(EDIT: Also, to note, the vb libraries that he modified will not work with the pvr driver in the ics kernel.)

I've never seen any changes from raver for the pvr driver in the kernel.

If he has some changes for the kernel, I'd love to check them out!

Driver != Library (aka: UserSpaceDriver )
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] solrac1212:
Yeah probably like sgs4g beam
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Well shoot, I could have sworn that I was having crashes when I tried to turn on PowerVR in the build, akin to those described on the Imgtec forum. Looking at the current Hefe kernel config, it appears that they are already there and available.

Derp...

Question about the Hefe Kernel of Darkness - You say that it's based on the latest Team Acid CM9 kernel, does this mean that the HKOD has the auto-brightness patches in it as well? or no? I'd love to flash it over the current August 30 build of CM9 just for those fixes.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] getochkn:
The kernel is half the work for the auto-brightness. The ROM has to be patched too. Right now only AOKP and I think HebMIUI have the autobrightness enabled and working.

KOD has a wifi bug, so don't flash that right now. What the KOD though is to disable the touchkeys, so you use softkeys that are customizable in AOKP and have a phone that looks more like a newer sammy without any touchbuttons on it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Jeff probably didn't include the wifi .ko file in his zip so you'll need to wait for him to post it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] getochkn:
He commented in another thread that he's working on it. I tried copying the bcm ko file from your AOKP (which is the ROM I'm using) and replacing the ko file but didn't work, so I'll wait.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
It'll need to be compiled with his kernel changes.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Well, yes the kernel has the changes in, but there are other parts of the ROM that need to be updated as well. Out of my left eye I see a couple devs working on the Aries Sleep-Of-Death so I might have to see how we can get a new build of CM9 with the auto-brightness patches in there as well.

Edit: Hefe-KOD-b2 is up, this time with the WiFi module that I missed the first time around.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] farmerbb:
Just for the heck of it, I flashed build 2 of HKOD over the August 30 build of CM9, and, surprise surprise, auto-brightness seems to be working perfectly! (I've had your updated auto-brightness values manually entered in to my phone ever since you posted them in the auto-brightness thread)

Now I just have to get used to how my softkeys "light up" now... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] twystn:
I'm on the latest version of AOKP running dsexton's adrenaline injector. I've tried loading the Hefe KOD but every time I flash, I get to the Android is upgrading/loading applications screen during boot and nothing happens. I let it go this last time for an hour and still never got past this point. I've wiped caches, fixed, permissions, etc . Is anyone else having the same problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
As a non-destructive first step, how about grabbing logcat of the boot sequence through adb?

My Windows fu isn't that great, but MIcrosoft's documentation suggests that something like

$ adb logcat -v time > some-file-name.log

should work.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TwitchyEye:
I have the same set up aokp with adrenaline injector and it seems to work just fine. I wiped caches and flashed.

Maybe it's the permissions part?

Also BLN is working for me. I have it blinking.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] twystn:
I'll try to get a log when I get home from work and back to ubuntu machine

I tried fixing permissions as well, no joy. I'll try again while I'm at work or when I get home and can actually use my phone without hiding it (crazy defense contractors, lol)

Update: got it fixed
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bot42:
Know on PA it adrenaline injector worked awesomely until the first reboot. Then boom it's like some one dropped a FC bomb on my phone. Then after fixing permissions it got stuck at the upgrading Android starting applications. DS is working hard to fix that you'll have to get an ADB log to him. I don't think your problem has anything to do with KOD. Try to recreate without installing KOD let it set for a few minutes then reboot. See if it still happens. If so then get an ADB log.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Yeah, "today's" AI build has some nasties. I understand he is working on it. I'm sure you've heard it before, but logcats really help devs on things like that.

my UV settings

These are my UV settings right now. I do not OC, running AOKP. I use system tuner to UV.

100MHZ - 800mV

200MHZ - 850mV

400MHZ - 925mV

600MHz - 1050mV

800MHz - 1100mV

900MHz - 1125mV

1GHz - 1175mV

I use the smartassv2 govenor. Anyone getting lower voltage across any of these frequencies, I know it doesnt exactly transfer across devices because of slight hardware/manufacturing differences, Im just curious.

Wi-Fi connectivity low

I just installed the kernel over nexus beam. It increased my overall signal strength but wi-fi connectivity is really low, barely a bar showing when I standing next to router. Has anybody else run into this? Any way to repair?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Most, if not all, ICS kernels for the SGS4G use the bcm4329 driver which reports a lower WiFi signal strength than the proprietary bits used in most GB kernels/ROMs. In the main, this is purely cosmetic. The throughput of WiFi is comparable between GB and ICS. The only significant impact I could find is that weak APs aren't available as choices in the Android AP selector. More details in the link in my sig.

I've flashed a bunch of roms and my lte speeds are only get 5megs in places it would get 15-20. Is this modem related and how can I make sure I have the right one for att?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rsf2:
System Settings -> About Device -> Baseband Version. In my experience most rom's don't flash a new modem so you'll most likely be at whatever version came with the last official stock rom you started with.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dunkaskunk:
You should also make sure your APN setting are correct as sometimes flashing different roms changes the APN settings. Just something to verify. Google is quite useful to find out the proper APN setting for your cell carrier.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moonsower:
Please explain me, I just dont understand the settings. What's the difference between 3 options: always, only when plugged in, never? I see that regardless of either option WIFI stays on during sleep. It is clearly seen from statistics. So what's the use of it?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moonsower:
Come on people, I can't believe nobody cares. Did I ask something stupid?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinoypaparazzi:
well perhaps no one have seen your post.

anyway, i just saw that feature a while ago, and i think what it means is:

when your phone screen turns off (your phone is asleep because you're not using it), wifi connection gets disconnected -- to conserve battery.

the options are:

always (default) - will keep wifi connection turned on, no matter what

only wen plugged in - well, wifi connection will keep on ONLY when the device is plugged in.

never (increases data usage) - as soon as the device sleeps, it will disconnect from wifi, and possibly conneted to data network, hence the warning.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirKunon:
1. Always on even if screen is off (DS WiFi ON)

2. Only when charging WiFi is still on (DS WiFi ON while connected to USB or AC charger and DS WiFi OFF when disconnected from external power source)

3. Never online while in deep sleep - disconnecting WiFi in Deep Sleep (DS WiFi OFF)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moonsower:
Dear friends. Thank you for your replies but I suspect you didn't get the point. Again, regardless of one of these three settings WiFi is still ON during sleep. Try to set it to "never" (given that global WiFi switch is on of course, thus it should go to sleep along with device), disable your mobile data and run Skype for example. After your phone has fallen asleep you still online in Skype and available to receive calls. You're still on WIFI! It doesn't switch off when phone sleeps!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jnr21:
If wifi doesn't disconnect when it's set to "never", maybe your phone doesn't go to deep sleep properly.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vikaskanani:
I agree! phone may not go in deep sleep even after switching off screen.

And also also this question is really not stupid, but I say google is stupid, that he assume we have a data plan active always. I have wifi at home and office, so am not activating data plan. So I was having the same question/confusion about this option!

Keep wifi on during sleep -> never, so how come it increase data usage?? data means not data transferred through wifi but sim card internet!! Ha ha ha..

Google should clarify it that when phone is connected to wifi, it will not use sim card internet, but if wifi is off and mobile data plan is active, android will use sim card internet.

Also I'd like to add that wifi signal itself is not eating much memory, but in most of case, fb/gmail/google+/twitter etc which are always internet crazy (hungry) will not let your phone asleep. and they eat memory. if wifi is off then we can have two option, 3G and 2G phone internet. 3G signals eat more battery, and 2G internet use more battery because of slow speed.

Background activities option came in picture with invention of smart phone, but always misused by google+ and facebook!!!!

I always hate fb android app, it is too slow in 2G and surfing site in Opera mini is way too fast and handy, anyway that was my taste.
