If i use another charger that allows me to charge my phone faster (since the charger can output up to 2A) and I change the setting so that the phone actually charges [MENTION=1247388]1.6[/MENTION]A and at the same time i oc both the cpu and gpu at the highest possible, apart from overheating, will there be another problem?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
You are going to kill your battery softly,like Sade:D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] boyheadkick:
curious question: why would you want to OC your cpu and gpu to max?aside from maybe gaming benefits (and that's the only reason i can think of when you say you want to do what you just said regarding charging as well)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Almin94:
Which file you installed? :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bone069:
My SD card is also remounting it self time by time and the settings are changed to cfq/128.. This happens almost 5 times a day. Don't know why... :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
Is this since the last update of your rom? Or since the last boeffla beta kernel release? Let's remember the kernel release was a while ago...

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bone069:
As I remember since the last kernel update or maybe already since beta 5 as this is happening for more then 3 weeks now.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
dude, to help further we need so much more information : rom, boeffla settings, better battery stats etc
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bone069:
The rom is shown in my signature. Don't why there is needed boeffla settings and better battery stats to check SD card issues :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SignetSphere:
You're using the linaro build that ZaneZam has complied which is not supported by Lord Boeffla himself so I think you better ask your questions on the unofficial boeffla kernel linaro thread instead of here.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bone069:
Will test the official build to check if it is a linaro problem.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
boeffla settings to check that you do not have any card settings wrong and better battery stats to see an asp that uses your SD card is malfunctioning, you can tell by the fact that it would be waking your device up to many times.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] bone069:
If the problem happens still with the official build I will make a better battery stats logfile. My SD card settings are zen/1024 at the moment but I changed them to nearly every possibility and it happened all the time.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mokiwipeout:
Damn my bad...

I meant that while i am gaming i will have to oc everything BUT i do not want my battery level to go from 100% to 0% in the blink of an eye
[Galaxy S III Android Development] boyheadkick:
oh that..you have no choice, OCing to max means your GPU and CPU will consume more power to keep the clock speeds at max, which will drain battery faster..consdering the i9300 only has 2100mah, you'll run your battery down faster..i remember my friend kept playing real boxing on my s3, he'd play starting at 100% battery and within an hour the battery would run down to 30%, and i only OC'ed the CPU to 1600 and no OC on GPU..you should consider buying an extended battery like Zerolemon or Anker

boeffla app and hibernation

LordBoeffla@

Can I hibernate Boeffla app with greenify or leave it in backround? Settings will stay active after hibernation (cpu frekq, internal scheduler and all other options configured in app) ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SignetSphere:
Probably not a good idea. Why greenify it anyway? Its such a low memory using app.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Almin94:
Not problem, I only ask. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lsalamun:
It doesn't even stay in memory, totaly useless.

I had the same problem for months. Opened the phone, took the 64GB SD-card out and reinserted it thoroughly. Problem solved.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] danielo:
Hi,

a bit off-topic question but maybe somebody can help. I have a strange problem. As soon as I turn data (wifi/mobile) on/off a strange directory is created on internal and also external(SD card) storage. Seems like some of the application I have on my phone is triggered by enabling/disabling data connection and it creates such a strange directory. The created directory is all the time same, but it looks like randomly generated. Is there some kind of monitor which can help to find out which application/process is responsible for creating such a directory? Or is there any other way how to resolve this? I already trying disabling/freezing user apps one by one but it is quite boring and time consuming... I also tried to wipe cache/dalvic but it didn't helped. I'm also not sure if freezing an application is enough...

Thanks for the tips.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] AssassinGEO:
Alright, I think I will leave this here.

Bye guys. I gave my S3 to my brother, as I hate that phone. Since I updated to 4.3, I was having problems and never found a way to make my phone work as good as it did with 4.1.2. Was so annoyed, always couple of problems with this phone, I haven't been happy with it much, always thinking that when I get back home, I have some things to do in order to fix blah blah problem. So I got completely annoyed yesterday and I'm left without a phone now, as for now, but I'm pretty happy, as I'm finally free from it's problems and will never buy any Samsung phone again (at least for coming years).

So, thanks for your support, guys. My last kernel was boeffla and this kernel was the only one which helped me with 4.3. Bye all and have a good luck! Wish you all the best with your S3's. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] HassanM:
I agree mate.... But I have S4/S5 as well..... They freaking rock..... No comparison with S3 whatsoever.... I believe S3 with its 1GB Ram was only optimized uptil 4.2.2.... Android 4.3 and above, its just trying to survive....
[Galaxy S III Android Development] metalgearhathaway:
to a degree, but with well optimised 4.3 stock ROMs and selective removal of bloat ware system processes I'd say it performs better than a vanilla s4, but it took me a fair bit of effort to get it that way!

it will be interesting to see how lollipop builds pan out, because essentially they should be able to improve performance on low ram spec devices.

myself neither the s4 or s5 or in fact just about any newer device has not caught my imagination, think it will be next years devices that will tempt me, which should all be built for lollipop from the ground up.

so here is hoping that the s6 or lg g4 are going to be good!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] viktor92:
The linaro version runs perfect, I don't have any problem.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SignetSphere:
Yep. I know it runs perfect but we're talking about support here and the linaro build is not supported by Andi himself so I thought I'd pointed that out ;)

[MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION] and everyone.

I just ordered a 10.5W 5V 2.1A Fast Charge Adapter. When it arrives I plan to modify the kernel's charge rate to 1600 mah (or not depending on the feedback here). Will my battery be able to handle it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hansonchen:
The battery life will decrease with such high mA charging & your s3 usb unit may be affected too. You can charge it without problem in short term, I've tried but no point trying to damage the phone

This question has been asked & answered few times by lord boeffla. Do a search & you'll find many explanation here
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Ubimo:
Dear Lord

Please update kernel. 5.4 beta with latest zzmoove gonvernor version 1.0 beta2 :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ZaneZam:
That's not urgently needed the Bugfix was mainly for qualcomm with mpdecision ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] boyheadkick:
this actually has been answered by andi a while back..it's fine to greenify the config app, in fact after you set your profile and uninstall the config app, the settings still stick..but yeah, why do so when it doesn't even stay in memory, and uninstalling it will only mean you can't reconfig your profile..so it's your choice in the end :good:

Boeffla 6.1 beta5 and qs rom ni2
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gijs007:
I've been using boefla kernel for a while now and either the latest kernel has been a lot faster or the reducing of Zram from 600MB to 460MB helped a lot.

Previously, swiftkey keyboard would load slowly (2-5 seconds) now it loads in less than 2 seconds and the phone feels more snappy too (no more little lag issues).

[MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION]

Maybe its an idea to change the following default settings:

external SD from 256KB to 512KB

Zram total from 600MB to 460MB

Is there a version of 7.1 beta 6 kernel that is built using Linaro-toolchain 4.9.2 with hard-float(armhf)?

Which Samsung sources are better? SHV-E210S or Samsung n8000?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sassinapoli:
7.1 is for 4.4.4 porting
[Galaxy S III Android Development] viktor92:
zRam size 100 / 100 / 100 / 100

zRam compr. 1.77 / 1.8 / 1.78 / 1.76

zRam orig. 5.53 / 5.54 / 5.57 / 5.54

After running some programs (Here was one of them) the numbers changed to:

zRam size 100 / 100 / 100 / 100

zRam compr. 10.98 / 10.93 / 10.94 / 10.94

zRam orig. 29.45 / 29.5 / 29.51 / 29.61

Never used Zram before, but now with n00t v5 KK (4.4.4) I leave it on because it runs so well, but I'm not sure what the zRam compr. and orig. numbers really means. Please somebody can explain me ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
I cannot help really.

Kernel 6.x series are meant to be compatible with Archiport primarily. So if it does not work with qs rom or any other rom, then I am afraid you need to use another kernel.

Series 6 and 7 of my kernels are experimental kernels only, as they are done for inofficial rom ports. So the support is limited and the time I can put into it is close to zero.

Hi,

interesting observations.

zRam 600 or 460 should in theory not make any difference as I assume there are barely 100-200 MB used at all. zRam works fully dynamic, so if not required it will just not be used. Hence, this should not make a difference at all.

At least in theory.

Increasing ext. readahed buffer is something I do not want to do as this very much depends on quality of your external sd card. If you have a crappy card, this value can already be too high and performance goes down. If 512 works fine for you, you can even try 1024. But I need to stick with a safe default, which is 256 up to my experiences so far. The good thing is - you can change it as you want, thats all about why the kernel can be configured.

I am not providing any linaro compiled kernels for compatibility reasons. But there is an inofficial kernel always be provided by my colleague ZaneZam, who recompiles my latest releases with Linaro. Not sure if he changes to hard float however, I think he does not.

Which Samsung sources are better? Nobody can answer that really.

I used n8000 as I provide a n8000 kernel anyways, so it saved me a lot of work and time to reuse what I already did. And as S3 and n8000/n801x are hardware wise not too far away from s3, it works out pretty neat. All functionalities work fine, incl. screen mirroring, no graphical artifacts etc, with good performance.

So I say, it was right to go down the n8000 route for me.

ALL: Google is again playing games and locked down the first of my 3 donation apps in Playstore. Of course no compelling reason provided.

But as I already prepared for that half a year ago, I would like to remind you to use your personal unlock key to gain donation functionalities.

If you have not yet generated (this can be done in the donation app itself) and entered it into Boeffla-Config, it is now urgent to do that!!!

I cannot ensure Google will not lock down the other two donation apps as well soon, so you should be prepared now.

From my side, next Boeffla-Config app version will not support these donation apps anymore but only personal unlock codes.

Also, I will replace remaining donation apps in Playstore very soon (today or tomorrow) with a dummy app that tell users to get in touch with me manually.

Thanks for understanding... and alohas Google, all done wrong, guys there.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] DocMarc73:
How do i generate the donation key? I already entered my email in the config app but nothing happens.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Then it shows your code in tge donation app.

You enter this code into the settings of your main app along with your email address. Done.

After that you can safely uninstall the donation app forever.

Store your code safely somewhere.

screen mirroring

Hi Andi,

It seem like screen mirroring not working with back to noot ROM kernel(Version 7.1-beta6). Is anyone reported before?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Nope. I think you need to install a patched library, at least this was always required on Android 4.3 and on Archiport as well.

Cannot remember if I ever tried screen mirroring myself on back-to-n00t. Probably not.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mahe.:
mirroing patch will be added in future release?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Not by me.

The patch replaces a lib in the rom, not the kernel. So it is not a kernel thing.

But honestly, I never tried screen mirror on the back-to-n00t I guess. So it might be, it is also broken by the kernel.

If it is, I am sorry to say, it is like it is. The port kernels do not receive the same full support level than the official kernels, as always something is somehow broken or not perfect. So it is a waste of time to invest lots of work.

Try to search if a mirroring patch exits for back-to-n00t somewhere. Maybe you are lucky. If so, let us know :)

Cheers

[Galaxy S III Android Development] kris_l:
Hi, does this version 7.1b7 support charging when phone is switched off? I've tried arter97 kernel and in current version it works.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
No, it does not.

And same here, I have no plans to work on that in near future. I never load my phone when switched off. Also I do not use back-to-n00t my own.

So I guess you guys should go on arter kernel if that is important for you.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Well, let's say: the changes are absolutely minor between beta6 and beta7 for all three kernels. So if something works on beta6, it MUST work on beta7 as well...

Andi

i will give at a try with clean install and you know the result i will change ROM when arter release v6.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nelsonw:
Hi Andi, I asked this before but with vague information, now I have more info so I ask again: regular plug have mic on the very tip of the plug. Samsung and Apple uses on the oposite space (next to the plastic part) and the tip is left headset. It is possible that the phone uses the left earphone as mic? This way I can use regular mics? Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Quite sure this will not work. Of course in general a loudspeaker can act as a mic. But only if many things come together... Impendancy, signal voltages etc.

But... What do you want to achieve by that in the end?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
So does it mean: When you flash that mirroring fix, mirroring works for you with stock kernel and also with Boeffla?

Sorry, just wanted to understand what all you tried.

... then the rom you use is somehow incompatible.

As said, the 4.4.2 kernel is only tested by me against Archiport, no other rom. If it works on another rom, great. If not, bad luck, I am not putting any big work in the kernel for ported roms as this will never be a stable and error-free combo. It cannot, as all ports have more or less issues.

Same goes for 4.4.4 kernel, which is only tested against back-to-n00t.

But you haven't told us even which rom you use.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mahe.:
For fixing mirroring issue. i have not flashed the mirroring fix. Instead i had a mod(KK S5 Transformer from MOKIAAA) pack which have s5 allcast share app. i flashed the s5 allcast share app on top of boeffla kernel. Not tested with the arter kernel.

i think mirroring fix also will works. but i have not tried yet.

Hello Lord

Can you create a feature in your kernel to disable charge in 98% and re enable it on 90%?

It's useful for night charging when I sleep in bed...

I was destroyed 2 battery because of charged 100% but I was sleep and not detach charger.

(sorry for English)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SignetSphere:
Then you're probably buying Class A batteries or using a unknown charger. Original batteries/chargers or some credible ones (I'm using a romoss charger) are sort of smart ones, they stop giving charge to the battery when it's full so the battery won't be used (just the ac power). But still you shouldn't do this often as it can degrade battery life.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] putti71:
Hi boeffla, I am on blekotas S3 note 4 edition rom and tried your kernel, but end in bootloop. Since the rom is based on arters noot rom, I don't understand why it's not working.

Could you please take a look into that? ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Cross-posting !!!

You posted that already in Zane's thread, and I answered already.

No, I don't know what is different in Blekota. I do not use Blekota and have also no plans to do that. If you want, I can compile an experimental version for you after I return from my business trip. For that I would ask you to provide me the boot.img file which you find in the Blekota rom zip.

Maybe that helps...

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
I can confirm ,since i am also using Blekota Note 4 rom,that Boeffla kernel working ok,no bootloop. Everything working without clean install from version 1 to v2 update 1.

Try cleaning cache and Dalvik but i think it worked for me without that.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] putti71:
Thank you but since two other users have no problem with blekota and your kernel, I guess do mess up something.
