Hallo Yank555,

I'm using sotmax rom v.8 and I have no any problems. The big problem comes for first time when I installed v.10 ... because of baseband. My phone have been locked. \only emergency calls, but SIM cards not permited.\. When I try to make a phone call a message appear "Not registered to network". I fixed problem using hardware box \SPT\. 3 days ago I installed v.12 of Sotmax ROM and ... same picture - not GSM connection, but wifi, bluetoth and etc. working. Second repairing was hard, because the box \SPT| has no latest updates and not supported XXELLA baseband.

OK now the phone working with older baseband - I9300XXELKC. The guy in phone service told me that the problem comes from baseband or efs folder. Before I start flashing ROM I backup-ed EFS folder using EFS Pro, but no success.

I need help - is it way to solve this problem?

Also - is it way to flash this nice ROM (already v.13) without changing baseband as in v.8 ?

Thank you very much in advance!

@Yank555

great work :good:

but have a small problem & question with the logcat..

how can activate with the Yank555 Kernel the (long) logcat output module for the ActivityManager?

if i connect the device to the logcat all runs fine @logcat, except the Activity manager output?

Have you an idea, has Samsung block it, or is that maybe an Kernel Problem?

Greetings
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
V12 is running great, but I'd recommend v13, I've not had the time to redo my daily, but I tested it on my dev. S3 and look just great, and it has my beloved 240dpi mode :D

There sure are other great ROMs out there, but Sotmax's is runnig very smooth and he's a very nice chap to work with ;)

Just flash the kernel and enable hardswap, set swappiness to 100 (you need to test this, depending on the speed of your sdcard, less may be better).

That sound very much like indeed efs is gone :( You need to restore it, else it won't work again, so I hope you have a good copy of it !!

Can't help you much more than this, never had such an issue...

Certain this is kernel related ? Getting a different behaviour on stock kernel ?

JP.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] aeroman:
i'm not sure, it can be a kernel or device prob. the logcat most activate under the kernel settings.

i give a try with the stock kernel, no chance, no output @Logcat_ActivityManager

example, with my galaxy S2, runs the activity manager not with the stock kernel, but that with a Custom Kernel. ;)

With the SG3 i become on logcat ActivityManager that output -> PID or mDVFSLock.acquire...

maybe you can show, if it an kernel problem, can be tweak the kernel or an script?!

But this kernel is for my SG3 best option, good battery life with sufficient power. :cool:

Greetings
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Just gave a quick look in the kernel config, can't find any options like "activity" ... so it's nothing missing in the kernel I guess ?

JP.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] aeroman:
thanks mate for the quick reply. :)

maybe under other name or example logcat options?!

i check the device debug features @ the hidden and service menus,

there is all or most activated, so I tapped on the kernel. :)

but i think, maybe samsung deactivate that useful feature on SG3 or trick.

its an android (adb) feature, that runs on the most devices.

Jep thats the reason I changed to your kernel, i didnt like the screen hardcore tweaks (siyah,perseus)..also too blurry/foggy for me. In the old siyah tweaks you could disable them, new one you cant so that sucks

Hi Yank555

I am having headaches with delayed Whatsapp push notifications. Anything from 5 minutes to hours late.

Running Sotmax V13 with your kernel.

I am working through the dozens of posts regarding "late push notifications" and have tried almost everything without much success.

My next step would be to install stock Samsung ROM for my country, but I first thought of getting an expert opinion on the following two questions:

1. Can a kernel influence push notifications?

2. Can the modem that I am using cause the delay?

Hope you can assist?

regards

First of all id like to thank yank555 for his great kernel!

I have one question about the xbox controller modul... i want to know how it works, i activated it in in aroma but im not able to get an controller connected via otg cable...

Yank posted hes not able to test it, but is there somebody who got this to work??

When my s3 recognizes the otg cable i connect a wireless 360 controller via USB cable but the controller only blinks .. Who was more successful and can help me?

I have problem with Allshare cast dangle on this kernel.

On stock repacked LLA kernel all works good.

Anyone have the same problem? Or any solution?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] STELIOSFAN:
I'm having similar config. Yank kernel and Sotmax V13 and I'm using whatsapp all day, every day. This is my main app.

I don't have any delays at all !!! So

1. No, as we have the same kernel and I don't have a similar issue

2. Maybe, but if you have sufficient data signal, I really don't think so.

Does this problem occurs even when connected to wi-fi ?

Solutions:

1. clear dalvik cache, clear app data/cache and try again

OR

2. Flash only your "Strock country" baseband (modem). No need to flash the whole stock rom

OR

3. Full wipe, clean system, reflash sotmax with your country stock modem

If nothing of the above helps... then only God knows :P

Any way to use exfat card with the kernel? Thank´s a lot.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] rekenaar00:
just funny then that none of my friends suffer late notifications. but thanks for confirming that it cannot be the kernel.

yes, happens on wifi as well as mobile data. guess that means it cannot be the modem.

tried suggestion 1 already.

guess I will have to try full wipe then :(

thanks
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] starbucks2010:
I had this issue also and I fixed it very easy. I used a sw named galaxsim-unlock (v1.4.3 i think). Just search on market or xda and you will find it. You have to buy it to unlock your phone. Install it and it will tell you at what level your phone is locked. In the begining it was free (v1.02) but not anymore. I hope that it will help you. If you need more info just pm me.

Good luck.

Thanks for the answer. Sorry about non Dev question, but is fat32 better then exfat?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Yes, it should have been in this already, but I forgot... sorry.

I prefer hardswap, it's a raw block device, so no filesystem overhead reading/writing to a file (but it's neglegible). If the file is stored on the sd it's acceptable, if it's on internal memory, I wouldn't, you now what your nice S3 is worth without a working emmc chip, so I'd not push my luck on that one.

No, exFAT is 'better' but is closed source owned by Microsoft and FAT32 is open source...

Hmm ... well as said in the OP, exFAT support is kind of a hack, and I don't like going there :(

The other possibility is to use ntfs on the sdcard, it's supported by Windows, and I compiled ntfs r/w support in the kernel. But I have to admit, as of yet, I haven't tried using ntfs on my sdcard, as I don't have that requirement (big files)...

But I might give it a try this WE anyway ;)

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
OK, I suppose it's the LMK settings, by default Aroma suggests Medium, which is fine if you use any kind of swap, but without, as in your case, best would be to either select "Stock SGS3" or even just not touch it at all by chosing "Don't set here". Keep all other settings as you have now.

Sorry for that, my bad, will default Aroma to "Don't set here" in the future, I suppose that's the safest setting. I just use "Medium" with hardswap, and I forgot to default this to a more conventional value.

You can easily change the settings by reflashing the zip, just choose "Config only" in the last prompt, so the kernel isn't flashed again, only the config is getting updated.

Let me know how it worked.

Seamless NTFS support

OK, mounting an ntfs formated sdcard works, quite straight forward using ntfs-3g (to be found here, if you want to use ntfs, you can follow that thread, it's not really complicated to get it working. Also there are apps that do this for you as well).

But I spent the best of last hour to get this to work

seamlessly

, because if it doesn't, I'll not include it in the kernel Aroma installer, as I want to keep this clean and easy to use.

The biggest issue I have, well the only one to be fair, is the fact that Android "happily" gives a notification "Blank SD card", and if you tap on it, it will offer to format the card (even if it doesn't when you say ok), but that's not clean, I don't like this at all :(

So far the only "easy" way I see to use a 32+Gb sdcards is to reformat them in good old FAT32, but we still have to live with this filesize limit...

Tu sum this up, for now I don't see much I can do, hack the kernel to load exFAT is a no-go for me, and having the system tell the user "your card is blank, shall I format it for you" is just the same a no-go.
