Hello Yank555...

As it's known your kernel doesn't support EXFAT format.I have a 64gb microsd card EXFAT formatted...

Is there a way to make a FAT32 conversion on windows ?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Not on Windows, as Microsoft blocked that.

Have a look here.

Don't mind me for bringing back the mDNIe controls question, but i doubt it's only a some kind of a blur...

Just read the Perseus thread or just the changelog for the latest version (alpha33.1), it seems that there are many

usefull options included, calibrated colors from NoteII (at least it will in the next minor version very soon), HDR, Digital edge enhancement

and many more.. It's no secret that Note II has generally much better calibrated colors, sharpness and other things that make the viewing

experience even better on samoled screens. There is a big number of SIII screens that are badly calibrated and don't reproduce the best image

quality, and they could with this tool.. Just trying to say, maybe this is worth checking out and possibly adding it in the future to this already great kernel :)

It's not on my todo list, and nothing I feel the need for, so don't expect it.

JP.

PS: The topic at hand was just the so-called 'sharpness fix', which has been around for quite some time, and also in this kernel at some point. Since it rendered the screen slightly blurrier, didn't like it so it had to go.

@yank, I have been using ONLY your kernel on various ROMS..

And, every ROM i use with your kernel, i get minimum of 3 and a half hours of SCREEN TIME..

so, everytime to get a good battery life at standby, i will have to turn off the data connection.. :(

Except that, the kernel is the most responsive and best for battery..

Today, on the LightForce ROM, i got around 4 hours of screen time with 2G data connection turned on..

It means ntfs filesystem support is available at kernel level, to use it you need a 'mount' that supports it (busybox, toolbox). Never used it myself, didn't add for me. I would say it's probably to be able to mount USB OTG sticks or hdds.

Well 7 contains SDS fix, 8 seems to contain a updated SDS fix from what I read, no time to look myself.

It is in essence the updates Samsung makes to the kernel as they go, updates firmwares, drivers etc. to keep the kernel compatible to newer ROMs also.

Hello Yank, after some days of test the v1.7x kernel it seems to drain a little bit more faster the battery 4hr - 55%, <1hr screen, twitter auto-sync every hour on & whatsapp! Installed v1.6 and the results are 4hr - 70% <1hr screen, twitter auto-sync every hour on & whatsapp. Almost the same use in both of comparison, no games, no other apps! Idk too much about the wakelocks pro reports and those apps, checked tasks running with Rom toolbox and no another app running passive as the basics only but just to let you know! So, im stick with the 1.6 :o

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] iBuzman:
ok....

I have always thought that Benchmark scares are worth around about the paper they're written on (and Dev's have a lower option :D)

anyway.. for curiosity I did some bench-marking at different levels of swappiness and thought I'd share. Besides changing swappiness, I tried to ensure all other variables were the same for each test. eg. 250odd apps (eg Titanium elements backed up), I/0 considered CPU, 1.5oc, medium LMK, benchmarks run after a reboot and waiting 15mins, 70%+ battery, 512 swap on 64Gb sdcard (format as linux swap - not ext3/4)

So if anyone is interested, here are the results of the benchmarks run at 60, 80 & 100 swappiness (everything else like-for-like as explained)

@ 60 swappiness

Antutu - 10312

Quadrant - 6059

CF-Bench Pro - 12303

@ 80 swappiness

Antutu - 10127

Quadrant - 5869

CF-Bench Pro - 13460

@ 100 swappiness

Antutu - 9395

Quadrant - 6139

CF-Bench Pro - 13080

So, what to make of this (ignore scores, but inspecting relativity between like-for-like scores)..

Conclusion - Over-all performance can't go both up & down at the same time, so as expected I confirmed the theory these scores are indicative at best, arbitrary at worst :)

(and still not sure what level of swappiness works best for my set-up lol)

Update:

@ No swap

Antutu - 10287

Quadrant - 6066

CF-Bench Pro - 13080

p.s. I've seen quadrants of almost 7000 & CF-Benchs of 16000+ on other kernels (but on AOKP roms) yet none of them "felt" as good as this one :)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Well, this somehow confirms my oppinion on benchmarks ;)

For me the "benchmark" that matters is a very subjective one, that is the "feel you have" of your device. If it feels right, then you've got "your" setup right ;)

JP.

PS: At 1.6GHz I benched mine in Antutu at around 13600... (see I also sometimes give benching a go ;) But I don't really care much about the results, it's more curiosity :cowboy:)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] iBuzman:
agreed... "seat of the pants" experience best bench-mark available..

Edit: and I must say; I'm extremely happy with performance at both 100 swappiness (for the last week or so) and 60 swappiness (the last 48hrs or so) win:win :highfive:

Just wondering if it's possible for a user to set a custom charging current of his/her liking? It'll be good if the charging current can be set to values other than the custom values in aroma.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Well in theory that is possible, but I locked the code to the values you see in Aroma, so if you try to set anything else manually it will not be accepted.

Have a look on the sysfs filesystem under :

/sys/kernel/fast_charge

You'll see two files regarding charge_level :

ac_charge_level

usb_charge_level

If you "cat" these, you'll get the list of the possible values plus the currently active one in brackets.

To change it, you just need to "echo" the value to the file :

echo 1100 > ac_charge_level

What values would you like to see ? I can add values to the list in the next release...

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bcky84:
I had a look at the 2 files. I tried adding a value like 1500 after 1200 and editing the echo values in init.kernel.sh and saving both files. init.kernel.sh saved fine but I can't seem to get the changes to ac_charge_level to 'stick'. It reverts to the original range of values (i.e. 1000 1100 1200) every time I save and reopen it. Any ideas on how to do this? I'm new to this stuff but I have been looking around the root folders a bit.

If it's not too difficult for you, would you be able to add ac charging values like 1500, 2100 and 3000 into aroma? (yes I am fully aware of the risks involved and the potential shortening of battery life but as someone else in XDA said: the device needs to work for me) I hacked together some 5V chargers with charging currents of 2A and 3A respectively. I would also like to use my wife's iPad charger to charge it sometimes as the phone sees it as an AC charger when plugged in.

JP it is such a breath of fresh air to have a developer respond to this query! Most other threads tend to focus on other aspects of a kernel like clock speeds and undervolting etc. From what I understand the 900mA and 1200mA 'custom' values came about due to USB3 and the fact that someone had a Nokia AC charger that outputs 1200mA.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Pfff ... Linux version is still 3.0.31 ... so a lot to do again :(

Well at least it's fresh and I should be able to reapply the commits :)

JP.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Yeah, in the kernel sources ;) The sysfs interface (e.g. whatever you see looking like folders/files in /sys) are not really files, but just pseudo files that enable access to kernel internals to be modified, and therfore those values can

never

stick on reboot, hence the need for scripts and init.d support.

I would need to allow other values in my sourcecode ;)

I can go up to 1.5A (so add 1300 1400 1500), but that's rather a lot and I'm not sure how the battery and charging circuitry will handle this ?!

But 2.1A or 3A !!?? Wow, I think that's way too much for the circuitry to handle :(

Plus consider that your wallcharger will not deliver more than 1A (it might give a little more, but not much)... And I know of none that goes that high (with USB connections I mean).

I limited USB to 900mA because of USB3, that's correct. As for AC, I just allowed 200mA above stock, there was no other particular reason.

I run mine at 900mA USB and 1000mA AC.

So if you want, and while I'm at it for Sammy's Update 6 I can add 1300 -1500, but I find it quite a lot for the hardware to take.

Btw. the 100mA steps are also just a thing I decided, it could be set it to 1250mA for instance.

I'll add a warning in Aroma for anything above 1200mA, just to be on the safe side ;)

JP.

PS: And if I should forget to add it, don't hesitate reminding me !!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] bcky84:
I do agree that 2.1-3A is a bit ridiculous when the stock charger outputs 1A. The 1200mA and Nokia charger link was from another kernel thread. Apologies as I didn't made it clear earlier.

I thought it might be possible because of my wife's Xperia X10. The stock charger for that little thing was 850mA and for some reason the kernel in that phone just takes what a charger can give. When I plugged it into an iPad charger it actually accepted a charge rate of ~1800mA (from battery monitor widget) !!!! The battery went from 10% to 90% in around 20 minutes and tapers off to zero in the next 30 minutes. Been doing this for one year already and there was no noticeable drop in performance of the battery nor there was excessive heat during the very fast charge. As the current drops quickly to zero as it approaches 100% there was no overcharging either.

I have a Transformer TF101 as well and the stock charger outputs 15V 1.2A. I hacked together a 15v 5A power supply and it happily took 2A. There were no problems with heat and battery life either.

Not that it'll be the same for the S3 but I'll volunteer and report back on the higher currents. So if you can put as high as possible into Aroma and I'll test it out for you. :)

Obviously for the other guys out there with only the stock charger, stick with the 1000 or 1200mA charge rate.

hi yank!

yeah it seems to be a newer SDS fix or an addition to the first one. But as AndiP and i figured out they downgraded to a highly outdated default config (very strange - from 3.0.31 to 3.0.15!) in u8! Something in it breaks the exfat compatibility at least for EMR2 roms - thats somehow not the proper way to keep the kernel compatible with newer roms, isn't it? *g* oor this update is for not yet released roms or they made a mistake in the default config. I'm running here a testversion of boeffla kernel from andip with the defconfig from u7 as a base and exfat is working again!

Anyway i know you are not interrested in exfat, but i just want to give u a little heads up that the config provided with u8 is a little bit strange! ;)
