You'd need to give me more details on what works, and what doesn't, e.g. USB memory stick works, hdd doesn't. And much more important, what partition types are on the drive that works, and on the drive that doesn't work.

Keep me posted, I'll gladly try to fix whatever can be fixed ;)

@yank 3.1d installation nearly took my life today

Installation stuck at 90percent for about 20minutes and did not complete it stopped at unkounting data partition i had to force reboot by clicking the power key thwnk god my device was not bricked

Anyways i am not blaming anyone brother your work is great any idea what could have caused the issue i eveb checked md5 sums before flashing also now i am on 3.1d as the 90 percent installation had finished flasging the kernel

So any suggestions on should i do something

Or is my device supposed to be wirking fine after 90 percent installation

First off that is a known occasional hickup of Aroma Installer :( Look at the Aroma thread, it has been discussed a bunch a few weeks ago, but no update so far...

There is nothing to worry about, you won't brick your phone this way, not possible !

All you need to do is :

- keep volume up & home & power pressed until you see the Samsung splash-screen (this will reboot recovery, works from anywhere btw. even ROM)

- reflash the kernel

And that's all.

Hi. Yank can you tell me which are sotmax settings? I remember once sotmax saying that is the same as customized but with cpu at 1.5ghz...is also the boeffla sound on? Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Easiest way to check :

- boot recovery

- start flashing kernel

- choose sotmax

- the next screens will show the sotmax settings by feault

- when you're on the screen that asks if you want to flash the kernel or just config, hit menu key and choose "quit"

Best I can offer right now, can't / don't have time ti check right now and don't remember :(

They are the same you get using sotmax settings when flashing his ROM.

thanks a million for the swift reply brother

U got my blood pressure under control

Ya installed again flashed fine this time

I need to ask a few things for my knowledge

1 so this does not brick the phone I mean if the installation had stopped while flashing a kernel or a ROM it wouldn't brick the device

2 what set of circumstances lead to a bricked device is there a thread for the matter can u please provide a link to it if one is there

3regarding mods and themes installation what are the potential chances that they lead to a brick

In all above cases I am referring to hard brick only not soft brick

P.s. u are really kind and responsible

What does jp stand for
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Well, all you can actually do regarding to 1 and 3 is softbrick the phone, put it in a "non bootable" state.

Regarding 1 :

Let's suppose the worst, flashing stops in the middle of the actual falshing of the boot image. Then you end up with an inconsisitant boot partition. Your recovery partition is unchanged, thus you can reboot into recovery and reflash a boot image on the boot partition.

Regarding 3 :

You get a corrupt, or just broken, system and/or data partition, the recovery partition is still untouched. Boot into recovery, restore a nandroid or reflash a ROM and you're good again.

Regarding 2 :

Tougher question. Honestly, either you just plain flash something not intended for your device, e.g. you flash the wrong stuff on the wrong partition (like flashing a i9300 ROM on a US SGS3), so you break about everything that could, and you'll end up with a device that is in an unpredictable state.

Or could happen when rooting the device, if you make some mistake.

Or ... ?

But as you can see, it's actually quite "complicated" to hardbrick a device ;)

Thank you for your quick reply, yank (but then again, you always gave quick reply and willing to help :thumbup: ).

So for several hours going round around trying to figure it out, I decided to do a full wipe and give it another go, and voila, it worked. My gamepad, my flash disk, my external hdd, all worked fine. (Hail the power of wiping!)

Here's a pic (usually didn't connect all of it like that, but just for the sake of the picture ;))

Sorry for wasting your time and once again thanks for your dedication on this fabolous kernel :thumbup:
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] invinciblecc:
Re: [Kernel][2013/JAN/24][GT-I9300][Samsung JB U7][3.0.60][Aroma] Yank555.lu kernel v

Thanks that out of the way I can at least flash as much as I want without the constant fear of bricking my phone

1 constantly flashing new kernels Roms a lot does not lead to phone degradation right ? That's my conventional conservative view so just confirming

2 regarding flashing wrong thing on wrong device it wouldn't matter in such small things like bala gamers multi window mod etc it most probably would be a ROM or something big not in terms of size but in terms of ts permissions right?

For example if I mistakenly flash s2s mod in s3 it might render my device unbootable but most probably wouldn't break it ??

I knowbthe 2nd question is subjective and depends on what I flash but still just want your view on how bad one has to mess up to result in a hard brick

Anyways thanks for the awesome and quick replies brother

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
You're welcome. Wow, you're doing serious stuff with your S3 there :D

JP.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
To 1 :

Well flash memory has a life-time in write cycles, the more you write, the more you use off of those cycles. But that should be fine, you'll probably want another phone before you wear out the internal memory flashing ;)

To 2 :

No, it's about the fact that different devices have different partition tables. So system on one device might be the 3rd partition, while on another it's the 5th etc. Flashing a "wrong" mod will most unlikely cause a hardbrick, as it will try to mount the wrong partition, fail and nothing will happen. But flashing a ROM or kernel, you start by wiping (formating or overwriting) a partition, and if that's the wrong one, ouch !!

That is why in my installer I always check for the device, if it's the wrong one, I don't flash anything.

That's the " - checking if device is a SGS3 GT-I9300" you see in the flashing log in Aroma ;)

But the dev has to include it, else ... ouch !

Regarding this would like to share a bit of my experience in otg

1 u can connect mouse and keyboard also

2 u can print via any printer not only Samsung (tested by me on 3hp printers) all u will need is printer share or print hand application

3 this is a bit of a question open to all

I tried connecting s3 to an external DVD writer/readerit connected fine and was showing device in USB Host controller but the file system was showing unsupported

So I guess if someone can compile the Iso file system to be read on otg i will be able read DVDs directly on my device !!!!!

4 rest I connected PSP camera and other things they even charge from my phone

5 this otg feature is very less publicised but is available on a lot of phones where company does not mention it in specs sheet a few days I back I noticed micro max a110 has otg capabilities!!!!!!!! I tried it myself !!!!!!!!

For number 1, yup, I have worked before using mouse and keyboard on my s3. I'm thinking of using mouse and keyboard to play games on S3, although I think it needs to be calibrate first and I didnt had spare time to do research on this subject :D (I installed an app from the store to do that, although hadn't try the calibration thingie). Hadnt tried the printer, though.

Hi my friends,

Before I was using sotmax v13 rom, I had tried mhl adapter with my tv and there was a display but there was no sound.

now I am using sotmax v14 rom, as before I tried mhl adapter with my tv and there is a display but there is no sound.

So I changed yank's kernel to the stock kernel. Now I have sound on tv, so the problem is in my opinion, unfortunately coming from yank's kernel.

This is not a complaint, only an information. :)

What exactly are you doing, watching a video ? Using what App ? So I can reproduce your problem more easily...

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] superas:
Sensation's mhl adapter doesn't work with s3 my dear friend.

Because sensation have 5 pins on it, but s3 have 11 pins. You should use 5 pin to 11 pin converter. (I bought 6 months ago from ebay :) )

I am watching video and sometimes playing nova3 my friend :)

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
To 1) vsync :

Disabling vsync (I've not changed anything in that regard, so if stock kernel supports it, it should work on mine as well) is not such a good idea, just nice to get good benchmark scores, but is will produces visual glitches (slight in normal use, bad in 3d games). I tested that on my Sensation and quickly reenabled it.

To 1) zipalign :

Doesn't hurt, but not really sure it's really necessary, as most ROMs are zipaligned anyway...

To 2) :

Playing with fire here !

Set them too low, and all you'll get is lag. Set them too high, and your system will kill apps all the time, you'll get app reloads all the time.

A system needs some free RAM to cope with starting a new process without first having to kill another. So it's about balance here, you need to try.

To 3) :

Can you reformulate that, don't know what you mean exactly... :confused:

2) did not show in stock file manager or in xplore file manager

However USB host controller recognised it as mass storage but did not mount it

USB host controller before mounting

And USB host controller after mounting

3)nexus media importer recognised it but gave error while waiting for media

Tried with all CD DVD and mp3

4) chainfires stick mount pro did not mount it

Maybe also your busybox doesn't support mounting those filesystems ... Stericson's won't mount cifs network shares, CM's does ...

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Yank555:
Guys, you're going to hate me, and you're entitled to, as here is the next release already :D

The reason it's pushed so soon after the previous, is because it fixes mic issues in-call for good now !

But --> In Aroma only stock mic setting is available.

If you set it to louder environments (use the boeffla app for this), this settings will stick also during phone calls, so in concert mode, you'd need to yell like Mick Jagger for your correspondant to hear you, that will be normal !

So use the app to set it in those specific situations and revert as soon as you're done recording.

Changelog v3.1e

updated to Boeffla-Sound: Engine 1.4.7 (AndiP71)

reverted some changes supposed to fix the call issues in combination with mic_mode and call detection

mic_mode is now exclusive and not "intelligent" anymore. If you want to make calls, switch mic_mode back to default first.

added support for ISO 9660 incl. Joliet filesystem (as a kernel module)

added support for UDF filesystem (as a kernel module)

added option in Aroma to load ntfs kernel module at startup (module was present for quite some time already)

added option in Aroma to load ISO 9660 (& Joliet) kernel module at startup

added option in Aroma to load UDF kernel module at startup
