2.8-beta4

Hi folks,

finally I am now releasing the hopefully last beta of series 2.8 of the kernel (unless you find anything serious of course) before it becomes the stable 2.8:

2.8-beta4

Change Log (vs. last stable version 2.7.2):

"Soft" CPU overclocking up to 1500 or 1600 MHz available

GPU overclocking in two steps (260-533 and 350-600 MHz) available (the gpu undervolting implementation has been also redesigned "under the hood" to support the more dynamic voltages required by the OC feature)

Boeffla-Sound Engine updated to 1.6.0:

Speaker tuning available

Stereo expansion available

Mono downmix available

Microphone sensivity level can be configured in 32 steps separately for recording and calls (call detection is back in the engine now)

Mic mode is not available anymore as it got replaced by the Microphone sensivity level just explained

New zzmoove governor version 0.3 (All credits to ZaneZam!!!)

5 PegasusQ profiles (boeffla battery, boeffla moderat, 1core, 2cores, smod)

3 zzmoove profiles (battery, optimal, performance)

"peg" system tweak removed, this is now contained in the pegasusq profile "smod" (all using "smod" in system tweaks before should also select "PegasusQ Speedmod" now additionally, users of system tweak "peg" now choose stock for system tweaks and "pegasusq speedmod" for governor to have the same behaviour)

Boeffla Tweaks app now installed as user app instead of system app (this fixes the issue with app not showing up after first reboot).

Small note: So far Simone could not yet update the Boeffla-Sound app in playstore. So the new features can currently only be used by using the Boeffla-Tweaks app directly, or of course the config file.

Enjoy testing!!

Cheers

And what about the GPU underclock ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
AW: [KERNEL] [Samsung JB] Boeffla-Kernel 2.7.2 (10-02-2013)

Hm. Never planned this so far. But interesting maybe, I could easily add 1-2 underclocking presets. Cool idea.

Seems there could be a beta5 then? :D

Sent via Tapatalk2 from my Galaxy S3 IPhone killer
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tlf55:
Yeah ! and it would be nice if you can make a preset with only 2 step GPU clocking, i mean only "160-266" or "266-350" and not only 4 step like default "160-266-350-440"

That could save a little battery and don't make UI lag as it could lag in lower clock..

Hey AndiP, thank you for your excellent new beta, right now testing the extra zzmoove (thanks @ ZZ!) settings :good: so far 1kernel battery saving seems to be my new favourite as its incredibly smooth in spite of the enormous battery savings.

By the way, are you keeping an eye on Andrei's Perseus kernel? He is right now implementing some very serious new features regarding our beloved AMOLED-Screen:

Re: [KERNEL] [Samsung JB] Boeffla-Kernel 2.7.2 (10-02-2013)

How about Row, my friend?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Juicer, this is an easy one for me to answer:

Yes, I am following the developments in his thread.

But my personal opinion is: I do not want to mess around with color calibration in my kernel, I just do not see the use case for it (same for sharpness tweaks and other stuff). I am personally satisfied enough with the display how it is in stock.

So for me, this would be a waste of time, I am not planning to do anything on it. Sorry.

Row seems to work better with pegasusq for some reason. zzmoove is running better with bfq or cfq, as stated already. They harmonize better.

Re: [KERNEL] [Samsung JB] Boeffla-Kernel 2.7.2 (10-02-2013)

I am on beta 2 and I want to test beta 4. Can I upgrade it automatically without doing traditional way? Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Yes, true. Sometimes things take longer. But now it is possible. By using the presets provided in both app and config. Or completely free if you prefer to pipe your own values in via init.d script.

Yes you can. In Boeffla-Tweaks just select the "load&flash" option, then choose "test version" and rest should go automatically.

1st time to try zzmoove optimized. I thought I'm going for lags this time, coming from Peg-Mod. But to my surprise, I dint encounter any! Will complete a good cycle with either cfq or bfq and see what happens.

Awesome, really awesome!

Hi all. I'm using Omega Rom 43 (4.1.2). I was using stock kernel on first week and GPS was working smooth. I installed Boeffla 2.7.2 and the Gps doesn't work anymore.

Ps: I searched for FAQ before asking but i couldn't find it.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Hi, you will not find anything on that anywhere in combination with Boeffla Kernel, as this has never been reported ever.

I strongly assume, this is something else but not the kernel.

Yes, I am about to finish beta5. And if this is pushed out, I will in parallel look at these new sources of course.

Yes, that is the intention really. Battery saving with good performance for daily usage. If you need more power, easy to change the governor on the fly.

So I think it is a great compromise and a good option.

2.8-beta5

Hi all,

now the really latest beta is available for you to download:

2.8-beta5

Attention: This version will reset all your configuration first thing (both Boeffla-Tweaks and Config file if exists). I have changed the sorting of all items in Boeffla-Tweaks, so this was the only way to avoid side effects. Please configure again after you flashed the kernel.

Change Log (vs. last stable version 2.7.2):

"Soft" CPU overclocking up to 1500 or 1600 MHz available

GPU under- and overclocking with many profiles available (from 54 MHz up to 700 Mhz). Please consider applying some GPU overvolting if you use the highes overclocking profiles (overvolting can now also be done for the GPU!)

GPU undervolting has now 4 options as well to allow overvolting (see above) for stability reasons

Boeffla-Tweaks app completely new sorting, hopefully more logical now

Config file also with completely new sorting (as above)

Boeffla-Sound Engine updated to 1.6.0:

Speaker tuning available

Stereo expansion available

Mono downmix available

Microphone sensivity level can be configured in 32 steps separately for recording and calls (call detection is back in the engine now)

Mic mode is not available anymore as it got replaced by the Microphone sensivity level just explained

New zzmoove governor version 0.3 (All credits to ZaneZam!!!)

5 PegasusQ profiles (boeffla battery, boeffla moderat, 1core, 2cores, smod)

3 zzmoove profiles (battery, optimal, performance)

"peg" system tweak removed, this is now contained in the pegasusq profile "smod" (all using "smod" in system tweaks before should also select "PegasusQ Speedmod" now additionally, users of system tweak "peg" now choose stock for system tweaks and "pegasusq speedmod" for governor to have the same behaviour)

Boeffla Tweaks app now installed as user app instead of system app (this fixes the issue with app not showing up after first reboot)

New functionalities in Boeffla-Tweaks app:

Wipe clipboard cache is now a extra option and not combined with wiping caches anymore (user request)

You can now create an empty boeffla-kernel folder on your sd card easily (no more typing in a file explorer)

init.d folder can be completely cleaned, to allow also removal of scripts placed by a rom

Small note: So far Simone could not yet update the Boeffla-Sound app in playstore. So the new features can currently only be used by using the Boeffla-Tweaks app directly, or of course the config file.

Enjoy testing!!

Old error...

Hi all,

I am sorry, but I reintroduced an old error again.

The error is, that notification windows are showing up again after every reboot if you changed the 3 tweak settings or to the both highest GPU overclocking profiles.

Please, redownload the kernel and flash again.

Then enter tweaks app and toggle all settings which are causing the windows again (or delete the configuration completely and configure from scratch again).

Sorry, this was my fault, I was in a hurry :)

Thanks

If you don't mind experimenting or possible issues, try the test kernel.

If you like a stable, rock solid, no issue kernel with great tweaks and great sound mod get the stable.

Anyways, I hear andi's gonna make the beta stable very soon anyways, so not much of a wait either way.

Sorry for lazyness, but, is this a must for zzmoove users? Am not that advanced of a user to go through scripts, if this is what I think it is.

I just wish to know more, aiming to enhance my Boeffla experience.

Good morning,

2.8-beta5a is ready for download.

The following small issues which have been reported for beta5 have been fixed:

- Speaker tuning settings accidentally moved into speaker volume settings as well

- boeffla-kernel folder creation in Boeffla-Tweaks app with wrong access rights

As always, download from homepage or use load&flash in the tweaks app.

Hi everybody,

I am using latest Boeffla kernel (amazing work AndiP, thank you!) and I guess it is not kernel related, but I am experiencing, since 2 weeks, the continuos wakes you can see in the image attached. Wi-Fi & Data OFF, Boeffla kernel, default settings. Charging all night. But the charge is slow due to this. Anyone know how to catch the app that is doing this? I had BatteryStats but it does not give me information during charging.

Thank you!

Ok guys, just to update you about latest stuff...

I have ported everything already to the latest Samsung source drop (Update8) from yesterday.

Will continue testing it and then decide what to do with it :) (in terms of version numbering, most likely will open up the 2.9 series just for it)

Cheers

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Yes, during load betterbatterystats does not work. That is normal.

But you should anyway not try to explain something during load as some parameters react differently in the firmware anyway when charging is active.

Rather check the stats after you unplugged your s3 for a few hours. Then you can see which app is waking your mobile up again and again.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] doki81:
this will be something for 4.1.2 or 4.2.1? haha
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
This does not seem to be the source drop for 4.2.1... at least it runs fine on my 4.1.2. and some other devs had a closer look already and found nothing about 4.2.1.

So we still have to wait a bit for it...

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ZaneZam:
hi bl4ckdr4gon,

no it's not a must, its an option for those of you who wants to turn off cores in addition. If u are satisfied concerning energy

consumption with the provided options (bat/opt/perf) within the kernel then u have nothing more to do. But anyway u can try out the scriptpack with the additional "core-settings" and make the experience how your phone is running with lesser then 4 cores - maybe u can squeeze out little more juice of your battery? We will see... ;) I would suggest you to install the pack try it out and if its not for u just uninstall it again, all possibilities! :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ikabot:
But this weird behaviour is only during charging. Is there a way to see what is happening?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Not as far as I would know.

Just to state again: When charging, the S3 never goes into deep sleep, this is quite normal.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ikabot:
But as you can see in the image attached, my S3 is awake all the time when charging. Something is happening and this is causing (a guess) the slow charge.

Thank you Andi!!!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Can currently not do anything else than guessing: An app that recognizes a charger is plugged and then activating something special.

Just a thought, I cannot find out more.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] SignetSphere:
Pardon me for asking but I'm quite new to this kernels and stuffs.

If I use this kernel do i need to wipe my system first or i could just flash it using odin? Will I lose my apps as well?

Using a rooted s3 (GT-I9300) with stock rom (4.1.2).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
SignetSphere, you can just flash the kernel with Odin.

No need to wipe anything before (it is not a rom), and also you will not loose any apps.

Just go ahead :)

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SignetSphere:
Thanks for the quick reply :) One last question. Is there a way to revert it back to the original kernel just in case?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Of course, just flash the stock kernel with odin again, and you are back.

If you now want to know where to get the stock kernel from:

Easiest is to load them from my kernel homepage as well, I put stock kernels for the most prominent roms onto it.

One Question Andi, today Real Racing 3 is released, but my S3 can't handle it. Bevor I'm trying some kernels, is it really a kernel problem? It lags so much

With my HTC Sensation I had a similar problem and changing the kernel was the answer

Yes, this is normal. It has nothing to do with an app or so, it is internal kernel process.

No need to worry about it.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Kernel CAN help by overclocking GPU, CPU etc.

Depends on which kernel you are currently?

There are many kernels around that can support you with that. boeffla of course as well in latest beta 5a.

Please be a bit more specific.

I'm normally on stable 2.7.2

Just tried Perseus and started the game again. No lags. Very fine playing the game.

Bevor I flashed Perseus I also tried games like Wild Blood and ShadowGun, both with lags...

On boeffla I had CPU and GPU at standard.

On Perseus now I overclocked to 1,5 GHz

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Hi,

generally there is nothing wrong to stay on Perseus when you are happy with your game on this kernel.

If you want to increase performance with boeffla, load latest version 2.8-beta5 and you can:

- Overclock CPU to 1600

- Overclock GPU up to 700 MHz (with slight overvolting)

- Also try to remove the 3 tweaks (system, ext4 and sdcard) for a test in boeffla-tweaks app

I think this should help as well. But it is up to you now :)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
If you overclock GPU to 700 MHz, I was running stable with +50 mV. But you can try +25 mV as well.

As you are reaching the limits of the hardware, you have to experiment a bit as in these situations every S3 behaves differently due to manufacturing tolerances.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Nobody can tell you for sure. Honestly.

I know people doing that overclocking for a very long time already and they still have their S3 working.

But if you do not need 700, take one step less (600) and you should be absolutely perfect as this is not strong overclocking.
