Hey...after recommended by Yank555!!...trying your kernel with sotmax v15..default settings first...or would you advice other...thanks;)

Re: [KERNEL] [Samsung JB] Boeffla-Kernel 2.8 (02-03-2013)

If I'm not mistaken, the boeffla sound app takes precedence over the sound section of the tweaks app.

Install the sound app from the store. :)

Also @tarzan good to see you here. :D Try stock settings first. Experiment later. :D this kernel is very well set up 'out of the box'. :thumbup:

I would recommend you download the sound app from the play store for perfect sound reproduction! ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tarzan11:
Hey...good to see you too mate..i already have sound app..its in sotmax v15...kernel feels smooth with default settings..;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lukaaa47:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Pard0ned:
Sure :)

DAC Direct: On

DAC Oversampling: On

Haven't done one of these in a while.

Battery life is superb on this kernel. This is along with 4 ish hours of listening to music in work, I still managed to get the screen on time over four hours.

There some serious black magic going on here. :D

The car docking mide supported by your kernel doesn't charge the phone while allowing OTG to be used, does it? I have been toying around with home made OTG cables with resistors (I have quite a few resistors with the right values for different docking modes) between the ID pin and GND pin and external power attached, and with probably every kernel out there that did something to the docking modes, but I can't seem to get the phone to do any OTG while charging. I'm pretty sure it used to work easily on stock 4.0.4 with the back then newest stock kernel, by putting a 40.2k resistor between ID and GND (aka smartdock mode). Samsung did something annoying to the docking modes and no one seems to have been able to fix it. I'm sure I tried this kernel before as well, but I can't remember succeeding. Or am I simply doing something wrong.

Being able to charge the phone while using OTG mode would be quite excellent, even if you have to build the necessary cable yourself.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MrFhenix:
After seing your BAttery status screen shots you have Secril_FD that my friend is the terrifing FAST dormancy BAttery muncher

download from play store the Fast dormancy App to turn it OFF and youll gett at least 12 hours more of regular usage!!

On BBS app go to menu and Display RAW Kernel info if you FIND GTALK services you have to disable them thru Sytem tuner from PLAY STORE :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MrxSiN:
not implement negative gain? it really useful when having distortion
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
No, I activated a DRC algorithm that does the same in an automatic way (saturation prevention). So no need for it.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] lukaaa47:
Ia it safr to have front speaker turnes on.. I mean... Why isnt enabled by default by samsung?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Well, safe... this is a question anyone needs to answer personally.

I would not recommend increasing the front speaker volume to the maximum as it COULD of course damage your speaker, depending on what you do with it.

Why Samsung hasnt done it... they of course always go the safe way and not to the maxima. Normal.

Same applies for the headphone volume, although buying a new headphone is cheaper than replacing your front speaker.

So... slowly increase and if you feel it starts distorting, go back a bit again.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lukaaa47:
Is it possible then to decrease volume only on front speaker while back one to rest on same volume.. I can't find this option...?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
No, this is not possible. It works on all speakers only.

But dont be too afraid, just increase step wise more and more until you feel it is not right anymore.

2.9-beta2

Hi all,

test version

2.9-beta2

is now available for all of you.

Change Log (compared to latest stable version 2.8)

All functionalities of stable 2.8 are contained

New: Completely built from scratch again based on latest Samsung source code drop Update8

New: BFQ scheduler updated from version 5.1 to 6.0

New: Users that do NOT use an exFat formatted storage can disable loading the proprietory exFat dirvers completely (via Tweaks App or Config file) to save some memory and maybe some CPU cycles. If you have exFat in use currently, the app displays a strong warning to you to make you aware it might not be a good idea for you :)

New: If you overclock your GPU, a dialog will inform you that you might consider some overvolting for stability

New: The clean init.d function in the tweaks app now creates a backup archive with all the removed scripts

New: The debug info file name contains a time stamp now

New: When using the "load&flash" function in the tweaks app, the kernel image does not get deleted anymore after the flash. So you can archive it, store it somewhere, and even flash again via mobile Odin if you like.

New: New folder boeffla-kernel-data introduced: This folder will now contain things like the efs backup, the debug info files, the backup archive for the init.d cleanup, and the boot.img kernel file after load&flash. Now these files do not mess up your root directory on your sd card anymore.

New: Addition script packs for the boeffla-tweaks app are now also installed into this new boeffla-kernel-data folder, older script packs automatically get migrated there (please be patient after first reboot, it can take a short while before it shows up in the tweaks app).

New: Version control for the boeffla-tweaks app is now completely rewritten to be more robust

New: Samsung ram disk updated to latest version

New: SuperSu updated to latest version 1.25

Fix: Charging rates are now showing up in the debug info file again

Fix: last_kmsg log is generated again if kernel logging is enabled (was broken since 2.7)

By the way - this beta defines the scope now for the next 2.9 stable release. Unless you find severe bugs in beta2, I plan to release 2.9 stable by the end of next weekend. Let's see.

Then finally I will start working on my own kernel configuration app. Which fits quite nice for the versioning, this would for sure justify a jump to version 3.0 then.

Enjoy

Is there anyone who got his phone to use OTG and get charged at the same time using this kernel?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Hi there,

sorry for late reply, was busy with pushing beta2 out today.

However, I cannot answer your question as I do not have a car dock to do any tests. I always rely on others testing that for me.

So - hope someone can answer this question to you.

Hi all,

Warning

Hi all,

small warning: It seems the BFQ v6 is not yet 100% stable. There are occurences with beta2 having this new version included, where people are getting spontaneous hot reboots.

I think I will revert back to the previos version 5.1 of BFQ which I used in my previous kernels tomorrow and provide you an update.

So far, please do not use BFQ in beta2 unless you want to prove and tell me you have hot reboots as well :)

Thanks

Could you please tell me what is the bfq?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Erahgon:
BFQ is an IO scheduler if I'm not mistaken. An alternative to ROW or CFQ.

An IO scheduler is a logic governing the transfer of data to your flash memory. The device queues and synchronizes data to and from the flash memory (internal and external sdcards included most of the time) based on this logic of load and prioritization.

I installed kernel on NeatRom 4.1.2 but have problem with boeffla tweak app.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] SignetSphere:

Well explained, yes.

On the Kernel Homepage www.boeffla-kernel.de I have also some more information on the provided schedulers + a link to follow for further details on every scheduler. Just go there and read a bit :)

Ok, this is interesting - as I have completely changed the version check for it. So I wonder if you meanwhile have it, or not?

If not, please send me the latest log file from your boeffla-kernel folder via mail to the support address.

No, the kernel does not disable any apps. That would be really rude.

Also it does not remove any functionalities that could cause this. Apps appearing/disappearing typically have nothing to do with the kernel but with the rom.

2.9-beta2a

Hi and good morning,

as already announced yesterday, version 2.9-beta2a is now available for you.

In this beta I had to revert the update of BFQ scheduler from 5.1 to 6.0 unfortunately, as 6.0 did not run stable and caused spontaneous reboots.

I would strongly advice to update to this new version when you are on beta2, especially if you are a user of the BFQ scheduler.

All the rest is exactly the same as with beta2.

And also, as said already yesterday: Don't be surprised when you see the kernel version information this time. I dedicated this beta version to my wife as she is having her birthday today. And without her being quite relaxed and giving me all the time to work on the kernel, the kernel would never exist. So I think she deserves it this time.

Have a great day

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Might be too much undervolting. Put this back to default for a test.

And... you are not charging, right? Because also during charging it does not go into deep sleep.

Hi,

just as an input: There is no change between beta1 and beta2 which could explain worse battery lifetime.

The media server process you found is a good finding already, when you get this back under control it should be fine again.

Out of curiosity: Is your external SD card formatted with exfat? And do you have many media files on it?

Now with your kernel i have problem with in call Volume . With Fm radio i have good sound and very loud Volume ( i need loud volume because i use it on my Moto with my helmet) but the sound in call it is not so loud ... I dont know why it happent this but this is my problem .
