and review articles on Google. It certainly seems to work for me, must have used it 10 times so far on /system /data and /cache. Always a danger so backup first and don't use on /system until you've tested on data and cache

It's a standard Linux utility to run on sd cards to remove fragmentation. Reboot the phone afterwards. Look up "fstrim Linux"

I tend to run it after removing files (due to sdmaid) or weekly.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] BioVolt:
Looking at that fstrim topic, I notice at the bottom of post1 :

Quote: "

P.S. If your ROM mounts /data with -discard then this app is NOT "

So why don't all rom's just mount data with /discard?

And if this is a good thing, maybe it could be implemented into the future Sotmax versions?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gsw5700:
Mounting file systems with discard tidies up deletes on the fly, but, it slows down I/o. Better to run fstrim on a regular basis. I read that many Linux admits schedule fstrim using cron.

Update

Andi I see /data is using the discard mount option, any chance of offering the choice to remove this? What are your thoughts on fstrim?

So, yes... you can already smell it :)

Hm, if he still sees the old kernel in settings->about, then something with the flash process via CWM did not work.

Honestly, I never flash via CWM, or only very rarely. But never had that issue.

What about giving mobile odin (free here on xda) a try? It is anyways better than flashing via CWM as it on top checks the file for integrity before it flashes.

Swap support

Does the latest version support swap?

in ram manager pro, i m trying to make a swap file of 256 mb on phone SD.

file created, but in memory info, swap values are 0., what is the wrong?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
I just created a swap file and activated swap successfully on latest beta6 kernel.

So it works as such.

Do not know what these app is doing exactly, but the "good old way" of using swap via the terminal does work fine.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] kingears:
Hi AndiP, thanks for your hard work.

Having read through the last few pages and reading the different CPU governers etc people are using, what do you personally recommend as the best settings to use for say,

Best Performance - just 100% pure speed, regardless of battery drain.

Middle of the road - probably already the default kernel settings at a guess.

Battery saver - some performance to stop major lag, but emphasis on very long lasting battery.

Many thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gsw5700:
You could try adding swap in /cache

The beta 6 is flawless. Lovin it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Well, if you would wait for another day or so.. beta7 will come with predefined profiles you can load in the tweaks app.

There will be profiles like "extreme power", "power", "standard", "battery-friendly" and "battery-saving".

They will then load the recommended settings (which I think they would be).

However, so far:

much performace: lulzactiveq

medium/standard: pegasusq

battery saving: pegasusq 1 core or pegasusq battery save - or - zzmoove opt or zzmoove batt

It really depends on how tolerant you are concerning micro lags.

I can only second that and warn of this mod.

It creates a swap file on the internal SD memory, and swap is very write-intensive. Means, it does put extra pressure on your internal memory and bear in mind, you cannot change this memory. Once it is worn out, your phone is done.

Personally I used kind of a similar script for a while (mainly for proof-of-concept) which does the same but on external SD Card (which can be easily replaced). But external memory is quite slow even with a class 10 card, so I would not recommend it either.

Just my personal view.

Hello Andi,

Now I can post on your thread and I just wanted to thank you for this fantastic job on your kernel. I've been adhering to it since the beginning and results have been very good, especially with the Rom have been using now for two weeks.

I can reach 7hours onscreen with normal usage and wifi always on during the day, awesome!

I'm not technical at all so your way to do with the config file is perfect for me!

Here is my config (all by default except:

CPU - light

GPU - medium

Scheduler - sio

Speaker and headset to 60

Equalizer : pleasant (great sound)

Privacy on

Maybe you can advise me further more (ie: don't know if gpu undervolting is not to high and what it involves).

I have also two remarks:

- Since V2 alpha2, wifi quality has improved a lot, I can now listen to streaming radio in places i couldn't before cause router was hardly detected. I hope it will stay like this:p

- Since V2 stable I noticed that when I plug my headset, the headset mode does not show up anymore in the status bar (where normally it opens link to different music apps when plugin the headset). Not big issue since sound it's perfect but was wondering if this was intentional or not). On the same rom, with custom kernel, it works before flashing Boeffla (love that name--read the story on your site - In french we say Boeuf La Motte).

Thanks a lot for your work and support:good: I will update my device as soon as you release next version;)

Jeje
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Hi,

many thanks for your very nice feedback. Glad you like the work.

I have one remark:

About the headset mode and opening apps - I have the same exactly since I am using XXELK4. You can easily see, you will not find the option to enable that anymore where it was before.

As I never used it I was not paying attention. But I am 99% sure it is ROM related and not Kernel.

And about your GPU undervolting: It is the undervolting of your Graphic processor unit (Mali). And the answer is easy: If your phone is stable, just leave it as it is. Some phones can take medium settings, some not (mine for example). So be happy about it and enjoy :)

Cheers

Useful info, although my phone runs really well with cpu on -75mV and it passed all known stress tests, it runs better with cpu on -50mV (gpu on -50) so

Kernel logging is now configurable (on/off), default is off

Supersu and su updated to version 0.98

Updated ramfs of XXELK4 firmware
