Install Better Battery Stats and check what's draining ur battery. The ROM itself is fine :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SavanTorian:
2.13 beta 1 is just an upstreamed version to 3.0.84 kernel. nothing else. not woth for a big testing series... running stable as usual :D

Yes but it still reverts back after i restart my SIII.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] B34R_85:
Andi.. same w me. OMEGA43.5. 2.12 was going crazy. i used zzmove opt. 1.5mhz. -100mv. but.. it killed my battery so quick.

n mic issue was back.

now im 2.11. stable. smooth. battery friendly. n of course mic problem is gone w th same setting (excluding zram).

im staying on boeffla 2.11 at th moment until u release th new one.

BTw thx andi for ur great work.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] noobSU:
That's weird. Neva face the things like that. Did you try boeffla kernel cleaner script? Use it, Delete boeffla sound's app data & cache. Reflash the kernel. Wipe cache & dalvik. Use again boeffla sound app with Set on boot & Apply Speaker AMP. If it doesn't solve it. & Values just reverts back again after the reboot.

Don't change anything from boeffla sound now. Go to /sys/class/misc/boeffla_sound/ & Check the files there by opening it into any text editor. & Check if the values there are 0 or 1. They stick or not.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Guys,

Weird.

The only thing that could potentially explain it are the wifi changes I did.

Will provide additional test versions of 2.13 on Tuesday for you, with wifi multicast filter reverted out again, one with s3 stock wifi again, and one with stock wifi + multicast filter.

Then we will see...

Weird is: no problem for me at all. Humm. But wifi is a bi*** :)

Hi andip,

It is possible to release version 2.12 with stock i9300 wifi driver instead of i9005? Personally I also feel the stock driver is more battery friendly. Today is weekend so the phone was always connected with house wifi and now I only left 31% after 9 hours. with similar usage during weekday that is on mobile data the phone definitely has more battery left.

I experience battery drain with sotmax v19 clean install and 2.12 zzmoove opt. 1.4 !

I believe that zzmoove opt(0.5) is more battery hungry than default pegasusq
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ZaneZam:
yeah thats right its a little bit more hungry in the optimized setting. there are the new performance features early demand and smapling down active and fast scaling is also active. could u please try following: set (by using for example android tuner or similar app) "early demand", "sampling down max momentum" and "fast scaling" tuneables to 0 and look if this reduces the "drain"? Or just try the battery setting which has all the peformance features disabled. there is not that much difference between battery setting and optimized setting regarding snappiness/performance in zzmoove 0.5x versions, maybe its good enough for you ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nelsonw:
He said this 3 post before yours. Please read.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] donteo:
So if we can make a list from lower performance to more it will be battery < normal zzmoove < optimized < performance ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ZaneZam:
well maybe, honestly with the latest changes in zzmoove 0.5 it's a little bit difficult to sort it that way. the first tests with the new version showed already that with every setting i made for the old versions before the performance was more or less the same. i couldn't "calm down" this much in battery setting so i changed it the other way around and made the optimized/performance settings more powerfull. zzmoove 0.5x runs very well now in terms of performance but for my taste it's a little bit too hungry now ;) as i like it as battery friendly as possibe and as this was the main intention making this governor i will definitely looking into this little "problem". in fact i'm just right now testing some changes regarding this. but for now i would suggest to use the battery setting it is still the battery friendliest one (it has also a higher sampling rate which should bring more battery) and has enough perfomance (at least for me ;) ).

[Galaxy S III Android Development] cornwall:
Hey there !

I was wondering if there were no issues using the app called SEEDER with this kernel? I'm running the 2.12 and I absolutely love it, but I still get too many redraws and lags. "Apex Launcher" seems to be memory hogging... And before, when I used "Seeder", it helped considerably.

I know that an enropy filler is implemented in this kernel, and that "Seeder" is not requested anymore, but can I still turn t on without any issue ?

Thanks a lot in adavance !
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
The entropy generation is fixed in the kernel, I assume seeder will not show any effect therefore.

Enable zram to get more usable ram. Might help.

Have u thought about any widgets?

I change my charging rate all the time, charging over night I set it to 200, but if I need to charge quickly I set it higher. A simple widget to change these settings would be great, kinda like click it, opens a pop up of that setting to change it, and the close it again.

Its just an idea/suggestion from an avid user of ur kernel.

Andi i face problem with ARHD after install of boeffla alll programs that i install via apk file and not from store

crash when i start them . If i install program again from apk it work untill next restart !
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
It is fairly simple:

zRam works as an additional swap partition which is located in normal ram (not sd).

The special thing about it is: The data gets compressed/decompressed on the fly, so in fact you gain some "extra memory" due to the compression.

Thats the whole mystery about it.

Just switch it on, it cannot hurt. If the memory is not required, it even does not get allocated as it works completely dynamic.

99% not related to kernel but another effect.

I install apps from network or sd card many times. However I am on stock rom and not on custom rom.

Also, execution of apps is controlled by rom and not primarily by kernel.

Please ask in ARHD thread about similar occurances.

WLAN test kernels

Good morning folks,

I am now back again.

And as already indicated, I compiled a set of test kernels for

all people having (or suspecting) issues with WIFI or having higher battery drain

on 2.12 or 2.13-beta1:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5td0e3ggqvslnuh/AgEKjh6PzX

* The normal 2.13 beta1 has S4 drivers + multicast filter built in

* boeffla-kernel-2.13-beta1-nomulti: S4 WIFI drivers, no multicast filter

* boeffla-kernel-2.13-beta1-stock: Full stock = S3 drivers, no multicast filter

* boeffla-kernel-2.13-beta1-stock-multi: S3 drivers + multicast filter

Now it is up to you to give them a try and report back to me which version works best for you please.

Many thanks

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lagggi:
Good morning,

what is the multicast filter?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Multicast filter works on IPV4 level and block all multicast packets reaching the S3.

Reason is:

In wireless lans which have devices included which heavily rely on multicast (Apple devices e.g.), every multicast packet needs to be decoded by the S3 as well as it could be meant for it.

So you would receive lots of wakelocks due to that, which results in worse battery duration.

But could also be, the multicast filter still has some side effects, especially when apps require multicast.

And maybe more... that is the reason I want to have a test of the various options.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Lagggi:
The only problem that I have with my WLAN connections appears when I'm at home.In my appartment I have a wi fi range extender unit by "Edimax".If my S3 connects to the main wi fi unit there is no problem.If my S3 tries first to be connected to the extender,the connection fails.The only way is to be connected first to the main unit and then to the extender...

Ok, the typical ping-poing game :)

Have you already, just for a test, installed stock kernel again and tried it?

Which version of the rom did you exactly use?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] pricey2009:
Hi Andi,

I know you have dismissed it before but would there be any chance to add an option for the master sequence (screen colours) from perseus kernel?

It makes a big difference for me and would love the option to have it on this kernel..

Thanks again for your great work! :good:

Sorry, pricey. Bad news on that.

I do not like this master sequence thing, my opinion has not changed on that.

No plans for it. I really like the display as it is by stock.

Have more important things to implement on my roadmap, mainly my own app which I am currently working on.

Ok nevermind buddy, loving the kernel anyways it is by far the best :)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Honestly, this is just a goodie. I thought having a first overview screen showing some basic stats would not be too bad :)

As Yank already explained: zzmoove is the governor that we are tweaking mainly now.

And as zzmoove is under active development and more what we want to achieve, I decided to not include YankasusQ anymore.

Really no clue. Was it only one time or can you replicate the issue?

What exactly was happening?

Nice to hear. Just I hope 2.13 will be even better for battery, I decided to drop the S3 wifi drivers for the time being as they apparently caused higher idle drain when connected to a wireless lan.

Not jumping on that toolchain very soon. After plenty of testing in the past my users reported kernels based on Google stock ARM toolchain (in my case 4.7 version) are more smooth and have less micro lags.

But I can assure you, I do a test build on Linaro also every then and now internally to check if anything is improved significantly with Linaro. But so far, no reason to switch again.

This is not really explainable. 2.12 is free of lags for 99% of the users. Strange.

Then I hope you give 2.13 beta2 a try when it comes out today... :)

* Upstream to kernel version 3.0.85 from 03.07.13 (kernel.org)

* Touch Boot frequency configurable (credits to Yank555)

* WIFI implementation back to stock S3 (S4 drivers suspected to have higher idle battery drain, multicast filter currently removed as it apparently caused some sporadic issues)

* ext4tweaks fixed in Boeffla-Tweaks app (were broken for a while already)

As always: Homepage or Load&Flash.
