Cifs stopped working without a ROM (when compiled from source) or kernel-side (alternative for non from source compiled ROMs like TW ROMs) fix starting in 4.2 (multi-user).

While the fix worked on 4.2, it does not work on 4.3 (tested already).

As such this should be the case with all 4.3 kernels and ROMs.

Though, if you see a 4.3 kernel/ROM combo on which it actually works, I'd be very happy for a link ! ;)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
This is not a problem. I have it already completed.

However, do not expect a lot. Samsung did not release updated source codes, so we can only replace the initramfs which is just a minor (but sometimes important) piece.

b7 works excellent on ArchiDroid 1.7.4 (XXUGML2-based). So I'm not sure if even anything changed in ramdisk.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kornelius1982:
So I assume there will not be much difference or probably it will be the same kernel sources for ML2 as MK6?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Honestly, nobody can say that (apart from Samsung).

Samsung releases updated kernel sources every then and now. But not for every new firmware they bring out.

So let's assume, the kernel code inside UGMK6 could be same used for UGML2. But for sure, nobody knows...

[Galaxy S III Android Development] janres155:
We shouldn't compare MK6 and ML2 since source code isn't released yet, so Andi can't do anything. Only the ramdisk can be changed as of now.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gieffe22:
ml2 seems to be another nice improvement...especially sharpness for display and good ram management (a my friend say that now can open a game+favebook+whatsapp without recharging when multitask)...probably for ram we can improve it alredy with new ramfs (i hope)...

4.1 stable

Hi all,

finally the 4.1 series for Samsung based 4.1.2 firmwares is declared stable and there was only a minor change compared to last beta.

Saying that, the development for the 4.1.2 based kernel came to an end.

Development continues on the 5.x series for Android 4.3 of course.

Version 4.1 stable

27.12.2013

This kernel version for 4.1.2 Android Samsung firmwares reached finally end-of-development status !!

Some additional fine tuning on kernel startup sequence

Will update the OP in the next minutes.

Hi,

big keeeernel day today :)

New beta for Android 4.3 users on the way...

Version 5.1-beta8

Initramfs updated with XXUGML2 version

Some additional fine tuning on kernel startup sequence

CIFS module removed at the moment, as it does not work with Android 4.3 currently

Completely rebuilt from scratch based on XXUGMK6 code base (instead of patching into UGMJ9 base)

Anyone knows is it true?

LINK

The patch additionally checks that the firmware date is 2012/04/13 and only applies the commands then.

So you need type: VTU00M revision: 0xf1 and internal firmware date of 2012/04/13 for the bug to have an effect. The date which eMMC brickbug checker reads is the production date as it seems.

So there might be phones with VTU00M/0xf1 out there which are not affected, I don't know if that makes sense in regard that if the revision would even be the same then.

2.6-beta1

Hi, after my first-line testers gave me green light (many thanks to them again), I hereby announce the new version which is now in beta status:

2.6-beta1 is availalbe.

Change Log

Touch booster can be switched on/off (default is on) - either in Boeffla-Tweaks app or config file, as you like

GPU undervolting is back again

Car dock support working again

Boeffla-Sound engine updated to version 1.4.3 (only change is to allow lower headphone volumes down to 20 if you pipe it directly to the sysfs, was for one single user who requested it)

Note: If you find your launcher or apps a bit more laggy with touch booster switched off, just switch in on again.

I personally realized with Nova launcher I can live with disabled touch booster (which usually spins up the CPUs if there is interaction on the touch screen to avoid lags etc.) for the good of some battery savings.

Enjoy

Hi friends

Installed stock rom ELLA...then this kernel....and i am not root why?...

Supersu tool need binaries..but this kernel is root...what appens?..anyone known?

Thanks ans happy new year to all.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Well, I would say it like that: I am not sure it is kernel related, I even doubt.

But this is anyway what you prefer, right? :D

Thanks a bunch, gsw5700, my "old friend" here :)

Easy: This kernel does not root automatically. Because there are still lots of people that do not like to root their phones.

In order to root you CAN use the kernel internal rooting function (autoroot), or any other tool to root. I personally always flash chainfires root in CWM and thats it.

If you want to have the kernel root your phone, please follow the instructions on the homepage: create your boeffla-kernel folder and change the setting of autoroot in the config file to on. Reboot 2 times and you are rooted.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rensen:
Hi try just now.

I want only root.....NOT custom recovery, all stock, your kernel and root. IS possible?

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Yes.

If you want to have the kernel root your phone, please follow the instructions on the homepage: create your boeffla-kernel folder and change the setting of autoroot in the config file to on. Reboot 2 times and you are rooted.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rensen:
I am root now? thanks

IS possible now to delete the folder in sdcard? and keep the root?

Thanks and thanks again.

Happy new year, trying your kernel.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
You are root when you see the superuser app in your app drawer. And of course when other apps can gain root access.

After you checked you are root, just delete the folder again and root will stay.

Had to go back to the alpha.

Really sorry I didn't make a debug report so this isn't going to be that helpful but thought you probably wanted to know. The beta completely crapped out on me. I lost bluetooth then wifi, then the touch started to play up.

The alpha is running fine for me, and haven't had any issues with it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] erto90:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] nikamuze:
What setting to get long batre life?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Hi rensen, as stated in the OP and on homepage, I will not add any OC to the kernel to not sacrifice on stability. I have enough to do to explain the undervolting stuff that can make your S3 instable as well.

When Samsung decides to add it, it will be in here as well.

But I still believe, the 1400 MHz standard with a quad core is more than enough for the time being.

I can also only assume a bad flash. beta1 is almost the same than alpha1, there has nothing critical been added. And I did not get any similar report so far.

I would probably reset all settings in the Boeffla-Tweaks app (under others, tap the first 4 options) and try flashing again.

Hard to say. If you are willing to sacrifice a bit on smoothness you can go for a combination of zzmoove governor, sio scheduler and cpu max frequency set to 1000 MHz.

You can also try some soft undervolting of CPU and GPU, but I am not convinced this will contribute a lot.

V53 + Boeffla v5.1b8 = best combo ever on S3, supper soooth great job Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
If someone finds a solution to it, I am happy to implement.

There are a few things broken with Android 4.3, CIFS, UMS mode. And it will time to bring it back, if possible even.

I cannot give you any hard indication about that. It seems, this is a general Android 4.3 issue at the moment (also on CM 4.3, 4.3, 4.4). So not looking too good.

Explanation of system tweaks is in the documentation.

My recommendation is: Keep them set to off.

Yes, I can unfortunately confirm that. And I think there is almost nothing we can do about it.

Seems Samsung removed some support in the firmware which we used as the last backdoor to make it work. This was already the case on other devices earlier. I am very negative this can be brought back to be working again, unfortunately :(

Correct.

If you want to go 100%, reset your profile to default. Or even reset the app in the apps settings, which will trigger a reboot with standard settings.

Then just enable zRam with 300 and you are almost at stock kernel level.

Almost, because of course Boeffla has some internal changes which you just cannot switch off eg.

Well, I have to be honest: My eyes never see a difference, that is probably why I never understand the hype about changing screen colours etc.

So my question: With which kernel version MK6 or ML2 have the graphical improvements implemented?

If with MK6, it can be done already now. If with ML2, we have to hope Samsung will give new sources out (the MDNIE sequences are in the source code itself).

But I will anyways now go for a hybrid solution:

I will keep my sharpness tweak in the kernel with the black crush fix, but only if you switch it on.

If the tweak is switched off, I will not use the "older" mdnie tables I took over from my 4.1.2 kernel but the ones that come with the 4.3 kernel.

Then you have the choice in future:

- either 100% pure stock colours that come with Android 4.3 kernel

- or with sharpness tweak put to on the ones from my 4.1.2 kernel (which many users still prefer as I know)

Will be in beta9...
