update

@ Andi

friend, you are a master of his craft / super /

I can not forget the amazing work ZaneZam JustArchi for a new update

Guys keep it up, the world is beautiful again

Improves system, and the phone using you again becomes usable, fast and stable

A big thanks to all participants:):):): Zmatený:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SaschaKH:
Well PerfMon was already the second opinion, I have CoolTool running all the time. What ever I went back to 5.2 stable a few days ago and that is running really good. Well next time i will try micro CPU monitor.

Actually I didn't really went back, I flashed the new linaro compilation from ZaneZam and that seams to be really a bit better to battery and in benchmarks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ZaneZam:
Perfmon is a really great app and u can't imagine how often i used it and how long i watched it's nice overlay window during development of zzmoove :). But that stopped since i started to use jb 4.3. Since then i got two major problems, first: for what ever reason it produces higher load on 4.3 (at least for me on stock sammy roms) that led to the illusion that the system never goes to 200 MHz on idle. Second as andi mentioned after some time there were freq and online core view refresh problems which led to the illusion that the freq scaling and/or hot plugging isn't working anymore . Using cool tool and micro CPU monitor at the same time with Perfmon discovered this. So yes you better use these tools if u want to monitor zzmoove governor in action. that's just my experience on stock Rom. using it on other systems might not make any problems at all ;) my assumption is that the fast scaling hot plugging behaving of zzmoove at some point is too much for Perfmon.

[MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION] great job on the new key utility!

I found a bug in the control app, it's tiny and easy to replicate:

Create a profile (ex: Profile 1) and make it active

Go back to Default/other profile

Export Profile 1 settings to a location

Delete Profile 1

When restoring Profile 1 settings with the same name ("Profile 1"), it will say the profile already exists, when it's clearly deleted.

Also, what caused the removal of zram on the 6.0 branch? Will we see it back?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Choristav, hm, strange. I just tried to replicate the issue in the app, but it worked without any problem.

So it seems I am doing something "wrong". Can you please explain even more detailed step by step?

Zram on the 6.0 kernel turned out to be a problem with the implementation I tried.

My zram in the kernel is very close to Samsung stock, which I think is perfect for the 4.3 kernel.

However on 4.4 kernel it just doesn't work. I spent one full afternoon searching why not but could not succeed. Do not know when I will find the time again to look further into it.

Andi

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Choristav:
Thanks for the details.

Indeed, I tried it out and it doesn't happen every time. If you want more concrete details:

I started with the default profile, and created a Profile 1 for my custom settings

Then I exported Profile 1 settings, switched to the default profile, and deleted profile 1 from the profile list.

Thus, when restoring Profile 1 as "Profile 1" it would say it already exists, which caused me to rename it to Profile 2 and so on (I'm at profile 10 now)

From the uploaded pictures you can clearly see I don't have a Profile 2 and yet can't restore it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eatsleep:
6.0 b3 is just awsome!

Ram management improvement is noticable! Almost no random reboots!

Now the graphical glitches remains (which are solved on other kernels but I just can't stop loving boeffla :D )

Mali drivers updated for 4.3 or just 4.4? Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
I cannot see this wakelock on my device, this is the theory behind:

The multipdp / svnet-dormancy wakelock

This wakelock indicates a high network usage. If this wakelock is #1 go to the Network Stats to find out more.

If the PowerManagerService is not the highest wakelock check the online knowledge-base or use google search to find more information about the wakelock and its potential causes.

Maybe this is an indicator for you.

Also, in order to verify, try with latest stable kernel version (2.6) and let us know if that changes the things.

Thanks

[Galaxy S III Android Development] ezechiele25172012:
Thank you Andi, now I restarted the device and I will monitor the issue and I'll give you feedback about that.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cybdani:
This happened to me and now is solved.

Are you sure you have stock settings or just default kernel settings?

You can try to set system tweaks to stock [off] (not default) as Andi explains in this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=37323633&postcount=1331

Re: [KERNEL] [Samsung JB] Boeffla-Kernel 2.6 (17-01-2013)

Hi andi this is just amazing. See the screen shots. Almost 6hrs with no added efforts. Earlier I had to be satisfied with only 4.5 hrs max. This is really fantastic. Tnxs a lot.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Yank555:
That is linked to fast dormancy. Try to switch it on / off, whatever applies.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] cybdani:
I had the same problem and disabling fastdormancy doesn't help because my network supports it. Disabling fastdormancy cause to stay always in 3.5g for me. I've disabled system tweaks and after an hour enabled again and battery drain has gone.

Well, now I don't have any problem. No battery drain. I'm using xxellc phe (spain). It doesn't happened in stock kernel. Flashing stock kernel stops battery drain. Flashing beta 6 starts battery drain again. Then I disabled boeffla system tweaks for an hour and enabled again. All solved. I don't know why but solved :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ezechiele2517:
Hi all, after the reboot of device(3 hours ago) until now I didn't had the issue above. Tomorrow I'll test battery drain carefully and I'll feedback you.

I'm using 'default' System Tweaks (under Boeffla tweaks app I see that it's set to 'On (Boeffla tweaks, default), what is the difference between 'Off(Stock)' setting? What of two do you advice to use?

thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cybdani:
System tweaks ON, of course. But I disabled it for an hour and enabled again. This stopped battery drain for me.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Hi,

ok, please report back. I am already almost finishing beta8 now, with all the things I mentioned before. I will then extract the kernel and vm and network parameter that get changed by the Boeffla-Kernel tweaks.

And a clear YES: I recommend keeping the system tweaks on (Boeffla tweaks, default). As they in my opinion optimize the system for more smoothness and responsiveness.

Fully correct, I never use other tweaks than the boeffla-tweaks, clear thing :D

In beta8 I have completely changed again how I apply them, so I am very very confident this drain issue (if it was related to it) will be gone.

You will tell me of course in the end :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] GTMoraes:
Hi. Don't know if this has been reported before, but I've got a problem regarding to Microphone and Speaker (the one you put in the ear during calls).

Sometimes, the speaker goes mute 'till I restart. Only way to proceed a call is to enable the loudspeaker, and only if the microphone isn't bugged either!

The mic bug is easier to fix and reproduce. On Microphone mode, anything else than "Default (stock)" renders the mic muted for any application (recording, calls, whatever). Also, the mic volume is too low (A program I use for radioing, Zello, used to capture my voice from far. Now I have to shout upclose for it to "hear")

This never happened before, I've just flashed the Boeffla Kernel on top of my existing ROM

My phone is a i9300 International, 3G, Quad Core, i9300XXELLA, running WanamLite ROM, Android 4.1.2 and Boeffla 2.6 stable Kernel
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Hi there!

The mic thingy is known and I have written many times for the past beta versions:

If you want to make calls, you need to switch mic_mode back to default. I had to take out the "intelligence" to automatically switch mic_mode back to default during calls. Maybe I am able to put it in one day, but only if all other mic_mode issues are confirmed to be fixed.

So... known.

Regarding the speaker (I guess you mean the headset?)... this has never been reported by anybody before.

What I would ask you is: When you face this issue next time, do NOT end the call but press home button, start boeffla-tweaks app and create a debug info file for me which you send to me via email. Then I can see why it is that way for you.

Many thanks

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] GTMoraes:
Not sure. Ain't headset the external speaker you use to not pick the phone up? Anyway, it's the "front facing speaker" lol =)

I didn't restart, so my phone is having this issue. I'll make a call and debug info file and send it right now

By the way, why is the microphone volume so low?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Yes, send me a debug log please. But please understand I will not look into it before going to sleep still. It is quite late now already and I am on a business trip, so have to rest.

Tomorrow then.

And what do you mean by "microphone volume so low"? You mean when you enable concert mode etc?

Well, I would say... it is not yet fully tuned. But it is very hard to tune without having documentation on the sound chip, so everything is a bit trial and error. And as you can imagine, this situation is hard to reproduce. I am not (unfortunately) going to concerts every day :D

You can try also the other two presets, they should be less aggressive.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] GTMoraes:
Anything else than "Default" renders the mic unusable. I tried it during a call and my voice is loud and clear. This will do.

Where can I find your e-mail? I've did a before, during and after debugs just in case (don't, worry, I renamed the old file before creating a new debug)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Yes, that is the intention: Mic_mode should ONLY be changed if you want to record videos in very loud and noisy conditions (i.e. on a music concert etc.). For calls, always change it back to default settings.

Mail address is listed on the homepage of the kernel everywhere, but here we go again:

support@boeffla-kernel.de

Thanks

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] GTMoraes:
Sending! I've took a little look on the debug, and I found this

Before calling:

WM8994_AIF2_CONTROL_2: 16384

During call:

WM8994_AIF2_CONTROL_2: 0

Don't know if it has something to do about it. The debugs may be on your mail right now.

I won't be receiving calls at this time, so feel free to fix this tomorrow =)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
For expectation management: I cannot fix anything before the weekend as I am on a business trip.

On top, I need to first reproduce the issue so I can search further.

Will do my best, but you know... can take a while.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] GTMoraes:
Oh I see, I'll try using your beta kernel then, and if the problem persists, I'll use another kernel 'till you find the cause of this bug =)

Good job, both on your kernel (which is now more popular on Google than the dish his name derived from, hehe) and on your business trip.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] nkirk:
Man what a jump in gfx performance. New drivers = awesomeness. Tnx lord.

PS. Small observation.. CPU is locked on Max freq while antutu is loaded helping the scores a bit. I think it could be the governor/Samsung. Anandtech tags this behaviour as cheating. But I do not. Otherwise we will not get a clear indication of what the hardware is capable of at full tilt. We are not measuring the governor performance after all.

Keep up the good work lord.

Hey, everybody, I do not like some benchmarkty but observe how the phone behaves at full load and in sleep mode

CarInitdevice failed - Bluetooth problem

Hi, I changed from stock 4.3 to Archidroid latest with Boeffla beta5.

Now I am having trouble to connect to my Android car radio. Before no problem at all, now I am getting "CarInitdevice failed".

The whole device is blocked (car radio) until I restart and deactivate bluetooth on my S3.

What can I do does anybody know if in the Kernel or in that Rom is something deactivated what causes this problem?

Asked also in Archidroid thread but nobody answers!

I thought staying on 4.3 is an advantage cause the drivers are all available from samsung but now this trouble

Thanks in advance

Read about bloatware in AD thread.

Hi thanks for answering. So this means I can solve the problem by installing the bloatware from Samsung, yes?

But can you please be a bit more specific because I don't think I need to install the whole bloatware, must be a part of it only right?

Can you tell us please what peace of bloatware is responsible for this Bluetooth issue?

it should not be a problem with the kernel

[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Actually, I have a feeling that pegasusq still is better in terms of battery, but definitely zzmoove is snappier. Probably it's connected with the "delay", pegasusq has lower sampling rate, causing lower overhead and lower battery drain, but that's just my theory.

ZZ, you already have a detection of screen off for frequency limiting, how about putting governor in ultra battery saving state, i.e. putting lower sampling?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Blackstard:
share profile?

S3 ➰
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ZaneZam:
well archi pegasus has another concept but i know what u mean the sampling rate is indeed weightily and actually it is already adjustable in screen on and screen off state in zzmoove (the latter one just with a multiplier) BUT i stopped trying to increase it (yeah the other way around, because lower means more overhead from governor itself but on the other hand a faster reaction time) at suspend because i got many sod's by doing that when starting with this project. but that's ages ago and the code changed a lot so maybe its time for another try but there will be another problem we may not forget, apps that are running when screen is off ;) but u surely know about that. pegasusq has one benefit it doesn't jump around like the beast does and is holding the freq mainly and longer on a lower level than zzmoove on average system load. that's what i was trying to imitate with the recent changes in v0.8, but as said it has another concept which i can't really apply to zzmoove without loosing the "snappiness" (and rewrite the whole thing *g*).but i still have some ideas to further improve the scaling behaving, will see if i can come back to the main intention of this project - more power saving! yes i somehow missed the objective over time but still it's not that bad but there might be some more potential in that actual intermediate state *gg*

holy sh.. i somehow over-texted here sry andi you know me normally i never write so much :angel: :D
