Yes, I did. As I provide a kernel for it, I have to give it a try :D

Nice to play with, but not yet in a shape (for me) to be used productive.

However, very exciting to follow the evolution over the past weeks...

So if you do not have a super stable phone and accept some apps are not yet working properly, you can always give it a try.

There is nothing like a "best" setting for the kernel.

It all depends what you want to achieve.

There is very detailed documentation on all settings on the homepage, also linked in the OP.

Flash the kernel, flash the Boeffla-Config V2 app.

In the app go to menu -> presets and choose one of the two battery presets.

Ooooooo. That explains a lot of things. You really never installed one? Like CM to try it out or something or any of the roms your kernel supports to see how well it works
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Now you are kidding me?

CM and Omnirom is a whole different story, here is the thread:

I was actually referring to SAMSUNG-BASED custom roms. And here it is true. Last time was a few weeks ago Omega rom to hunt an issue that never existed on Samsung stock.

I refuse using custom roms in the Samsung area since my Galaxy S1.

Neatrom 4.8 and Boeffla Kernel 4.0 give me the best experience yet. I use battery friendly profile because the recommendations made by users here give me lag. With battery friendly profile runs like silky smooth. Battery life is great having 4-5 screen on in 24-30 hours of uptime. And those screen-on hours are not made using xda. I use ingress a lot and hangouts video also. I have less than 1% drop during night (not in airplane mode).

Thank you for your great kernel!

Noooooo. Is there a way to add back the performance governor? I use that when I'm doing large file things with the screen off. Other governors go down to 1 core and such and make the process slower.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
The only way is to compile the kernel again with performance governor added again. Feel free to do so :)

I will not add it again, have too many support requests by people using this governor and wondering why things are not like they expect.

Hi Andi

I don't know if this is boeffla app issue or ROM issue, but it occurred to me twice that boeffla cannot detect busybox in sbin/xbin and the app tells me that I don't have a proper busybox. On the other hand, it can be fixed by rebooting. No big problem though, just weird.

Btw, I'm using Boeffla kernel latest for 4.3 and updated boeffla-config app. I also use stock Samsung 4.3 ROM that I rooted, deodexed, and busyboxed (latest).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kirpman:
Hey,

my phone is quite laggy woth boeffla 5 . Could anyone recommend some good setting?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanefirst:
Here are settings which makes the phone fly:

Governor: zzmoove optimal, row/cfq, 1024/1024

CPU: AFTR + LPA, Multicore Poersave Off, UV light

Other: Touch Boost 600 MHz, Android Logger Off, Kernel Logger Off, zRAM disabled

BTW. http://www.boeffla-kernel.de/index.php/kernel-settings
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Well, it does not happen on normal stock roms.

I would recommend you do not put an additional busybox to xbin as the kernel comes with it's own one.

Apart from that... I have no idea now. It seems some busybox stuff is conflicting somehow.

Could be. The source drop of the 4.3 kernels is everything but good.

As I said, I will not add features onto the 5 kernel series until Samsung released new sources.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kirpman:
Thanks a million, I'll give it a try :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ScratMan38:
I have an issue with ArchiDroid v1.7.2, using Boeffla 5.0 beta2 provided with the ROM, with default Archi's profile except zRAM is disabled.

The issue is when the battery goes below 20%, the phone becomes hot, battery is draining very fast, it does not deep sleep anymore, and I can see Busybox as top battery drawer in the kernel wakelock with BBS.

I need to reboot to stop this phenomenon.

Any idea ? it seems the Busybox is coming from the kernel, right ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Cannot answer your questions, as I do not know currently if Archi bundles a busybox with his rom as well.

But what I know is: Since yesterday 5.1-beta1 is out, and you should probably step up to this version. It was specifically tweaked for Archi's specifics in terms of init.d handling.

But in no case it would make sense something happens when battery goes below 20%. At least nothing is in the kernel to trigger something.

It might even have been a one-time side effect.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanefirst:
Guys, what is your usual battery drain overnight, when phone is in deep sleep?

Is something 1.3%/hour ok or too much? My previous phone SGS Plus was like 0.6%/hour...

I'm using zzmove - optimal and AFTR+LPA. Deep Sleep works according to BatteryStats+.

Maybe the sole AFTR is better???
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Here battery stats for me from last night.

I went to bed at 22:02 switching to flight mode, got up again on 05:37.

I lost 2% during these 7,5 hours.

I am on 4.1-beta1 kernel on XXEMG4 stock rom.

Just to demonstrate how less the system consumes when it really does nothing :)

Andi

Hi, you can use an app called "emmc brickbug check" from Google playstore.

It shows the chip revision. And this VTU00M is suspected to be affected by the SD.

I do not have the link at hand currently, will post it later if nobody else posted it in the meanwhile.

ps:

speaker volume will be return to 57 after you reboot.

others setting will not. only speaker volume. I mean Sound app .

another interesting thing is "Set on boot" ... I make some settings and values and reboot.

But I can't see the difference between Set on boot ON or Set on boot NON .....

it seems the same .

another found is supersu Pro is basically safe..

sorry. I fix what I said. pro is not fully safe. when I set service notification ON(advance setting)

I also got problem after reboot.

Now I am sure superUser is very Safe ......

these problems is because supersu fail to Obtain permission on every boot.

so it makes phone get very lags.... even hang.... deep sleep..can't awake!!

There you go.

You have to see what fw revision and chip you have. That sane chip status doesnt matter.

I have 0xf1 fw revision (for some people it is 0xF1) and VTUOOM as my chip. And I am affected.

This along with perseus got update 7 source codes. Hopefully the custom recoveries will be patched too.

Speaker volume reset by the Boeffla-Sound app is not a bug, it is a safety feature according to Simone. I will contact him, maybe he should make it configurable anyways.

Yes, you have a potentially affected chip in your phone. The fixes coming with source update7 (which I used for version 2.6) address this issue.

So, from all we know so far, you can live well with this kernel version.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Yank555:
All it says is what has been said everywhere :

Recovery is not safe and we need to wait for them to be updated, but it extends in saying, don't flash custom kernels as you need to go to recovery, which with Odin is not true.

It also says that you are safe only with new bootloader , that may in fact be correct if download mode is inside of the bootloader, actually, I never wondered about it tbh.

JP.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] brunodu91:
Ok yank

So Kernel custom is compatible Like stock lla or not ?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Yank555:
Boeffla kernel is based

on the sources of stock ELLA kernel

, so yes, it does contains the fix as it's already in the base !

But other kernels not based on Update 7 sources can contain the fix as well as AndreiLux extracted it and pushed the fix to his repo on github for others to pull, so it is the case in my current kernel as an example and I expect it will be in most kernels in no time if not already done.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] erto90:
But where is the problem going to recovery? I havent understood this relation between custom kernel flasehd on nonpatched recoveries.. Where can be the risk?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Erto, in easy words:

When you go into CWM recovery, it also has its own kernel starting first to gain access to the hardware. And this CWM built-in kernel also needs to be updated.

So we should expect new CMWs very soon.

so... I just want ask if 16G must be VTU00M?

I mean even though phone was Sent to change a new One...16g is also VTU00M?

am I right ? If I am right ....

16G users were Only solved by Emmc patch this way? or Flash ELLA ROM...

in other words, 32G users is more lucky than 16G.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
I do not know every detail about the Samsung design here. But current assumption is, only phone with the VTU00M are affected, and those are only known to be 16GB phones.

And yes, you need to flash a custom kernel (or stock xxella) to be on the safe side.

No, it is the emergency script if you configured your phone to death with boeffla-kernel.

The way Boeffla-Kernel works, you never need a cleaner when you move on to a different kernel. The settings cannot be read by other kernels, only by Boeffla.

I´ll still have a look at future devices, let´s see if the Galaxy S5 will be a worthy candidate to make me switch back ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] axetilen:
u can increase the last 2 or 3 values but dont try to increase the very first ones too much unless they would cause problems to your launcher and apps. The last 2 values are the most important because most apps belong to these

this is my lmk settings. I think it's working well

The point is: NEVER LET FREE RAM <100MB => no lag

free ram = useless ram => everyone knows BUT only when it is higher than 100mb unless significant lag will occur. Can be easily noticed in low- & mid-range devices

Not really but it wouldn't hurt to wipe the caches so if that makes you (you_man) comfortable then go ahead.

Load&Flash is also definitely much more safe as I do a checksum verification before flashing.

Therefore, it is impossible to flash a corrupted kernel image like it can happen with a CWM zip.
