After disabling power saving and switching to pegasusq and boeffla moderate I noticed quite a drain (1.1%/h) even if the phone is in deep sleep (only 15m awake out of 7h asleep). I admit, I don't have idle data from when power saving was on, so I can't really compare... I'll need to investigate more.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Hidden-Hunter:
hi axetilen

thank you:victory:

the rest doesnt affect battert life

for zzmooove yank battery extreme?? or pegasusQ??

Which is the best profile for battery saving ?? for daily use and deepsleep ?

sry,My English is not very good

:highfive:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] axetilen:
the things I listed will directly affect battery life but the other settings dont affect battery life, maybe but negligible

I didnt mean zzmoove or pegasusQ :)

for now, zzmoove seems to behave better than pegasusQ for daily usage but for gaming, pegasusQ is proved to save more battery without having negative efffects

pegasusQ standard may not work well with AFTR+LPA while pegasusQ battery saving works well, so it depends on how you combine everything :)

as andi said, kernel configuration is really not a major part to save battery. ROM stuffs can behave crazily and drain battery like hell

set undervol for cpu and gpu??

may Undervolting cause problem for hardware?:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] axetilen:
it depends on your chip. for me I set this vaue and I have no problem at all. It makes my phone a bit cooler

if you raise cpu uv to -100mv => my phone will have random reboots. They will be no problem but the system may not provide enough power for chip to work => freeze and reboot

you can try undervolting but that's not recommeded by anyone for the stability
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Hidden-Hunter:
ok that , stability=> no undervolt :good:

how about if i set cpu freq to 1200 or 1000 and GPU freq to 54/266 , no problem?? and powee saving in menu off or on?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] axetilen:
you can try these. Im currently using 1ghz and 54/266 + powersaving on (only display is on, the rest = off)

Users with patched modems...

Hi all,

thanks to [MENTION=346607]zuluman[/MENTION], users with his patched modems should now be able to use it also with stable kernel release again.

The solution is easier than ever: Just install the modem, done. There is not additional patch file required anymore when you are using the stable 5.1 kernel version (as my hack to activate EFS V1 modems which I did between beta14 and the stable release covers for this).

Thanks to Zuluman for the quick test and feedback! Appreciated.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Not neccessarily, but you still did not give me your ASV level which Boeffla-Config shows you on first page.

Only then I can say.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] zhuoxian:
Sorry, here is the screen shot ,Asv level is 7

from my I9300 omega 54 tapatalk
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Ok, thanks. Wow you have a very high ASV level, never saw that before.

Well, I can confirm, for ASV level 7 the first two voltages are indeed the same.

And this is correct as per Samsung. Only phones with AVS level 6 or lower have different voltages for first two frequencies.

Please find the voltage table per ASV level attached. Just count from left to right, starting with 0 to column 7, and you will see your voltages. They are indeed 900mV for the first two frequencies for your phone.

So - all ok for you.

Andi

Your Exynos SOC is of very high quality, so it operates with less voltage (and therefore power) than ones with lower ASV level.

All SIII of the same variant have the same hardware. Then how can there be different ASV level? This isn't fair!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
No, wrong statement.

All S3 have the same chips inside, yes (even that is not entirely true though, there are different camera modules).

But - every Exynos Soc is inspected for quality after manufacturing process and depending on how good the quality was, ASV level is determined.

Thats life.

Amazing Kernel

Just want to say that this kernel is fantastic and the boeffla app is also great. Run Neat 6.3 with beta 14.

Just notice a huge battery drain when playing games, even with simple games (like angry birds), lossing about 10% with 15m game play, just like Yank555. With Repack kernel from neat battery seens to be better but doesent have any configuration. For me, this is the best of all kernels :)

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ScratMan38:
It is called OTP (One Time Programmable memory), the processor is tested with the standard voltages, and then the tester starts undervolting, when the error rate starts to increase, the test considers the voltage is too low. They add a margin and burn the recommended value in the non volatile memory.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Perfect explanation, ScratMan38.

Andi

silly question but can i use the Config V2 app on my S3 which is on stock rom 4,3 running current 5.1 stable kernel and NOT rooted.

thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Not a silly question, but the answer is NO.

The app needs to store settings into the kernels file system + drop files to get settings loaded during startup etc.

For all of that, root is required.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Abo3mood:
I'm new to this kernel, today is my first day and wow this kernel is awesome. What are the system tweaks listed and what are the differences between them ?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Mind looking at the documentation?

http://www.boeffla-kernel.de/non-joomla/en/bc-settings.html#Miscellaneous

I personally recommend to keep them off, or try the Frandom tweaks.

The other ones were done primarily for 4.1.x Android, so you can still try them of course if they suit you.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] v1ks:
Thanks Andi, will use it without root for now. I been using the test kernels and they great performance and just flashed the stable one now, i am sure it will be even better.

Thanks once again.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Just to reiterate... the app will not work without root.

I mean, you still can root your phone, do the settings in the app as you want, unroot again.

Then the settings will still apply at every boot - even when you uninstalled the app.

So maybe that is a way for you. But you need root at least once to use the app to do your settings.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] smala:
Wow... too many posts about ASV levels :silly:

What about a little Trial-N-Error everybody...?

and my personal advice... be happy with your phone as it is. Undervolt raises battery life less than an optimized ROM with few wakelocks.

You can't have a 2000cc Car with a mileage of a Apecar (very small utility vehicle). just a bad comparison
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Moster2:
I dont undervolt for battery life, but less heat and longer hardware life.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] zhuoxian:
Since mine is adv level 7,i set my CPU min frequency to 300, gpu Frequency 0 and 1 are the same,both undervolt -75, because they use the same voltages, right?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] LubbeSGS:
Mmm good question - I am not able to download the firmware myself right now in order to comfirm whether it is unbranded or not (3rd world problems..)

According to the website, it is "XEG"..? Hope that helps!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] simono_pl:
Yesterday after some months I revert to stock ROM and now with this kernel all run smoth and camera etc. all works again :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Well, the kernel is not related to the modem or EFS as such.

But - in the kernels initramfs, a file called cbd is contained with is the loader for the modem.

And I simply replaced this file with a version that can still load the "older" modems for EFS V1.

a) You can only judge that after 1-2 full charging cycles

b) You are undervolting, so you will get all possible kind of erratic results, do not do that!

c) There are no changes done which could at all influence battery consumption.

d) The kernels influence on battery consumption is generally minimal, unless there is some big bug in it

So, I will not respond to any more battery consumption feedback anymore unless something gets proven.

Yes, when it is uploaded. I am working on it, maybe tomorrow, maybe later.

ASV is based on Exynos. And Exynos is a SOC (system on a chip), so it applies for both CPU and GPU.

Try it and report. I have not tried it so far...

Ok, I misunderstood. No problem.

One off topic question. Does Undervolting the CPU and GPU harms the battery or phone? I asked this question because some said it is harmful to the battery and phone while some said just the opposite. What is the recommended values for Undervolting the CPU and GPU using this kernel? Confused :what:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Hey Andi, are you sure? I'd suggest to revert it due to possible conflicts, also stepping back was never good, I don't like this change, especially because EFS V2 is already old info and everybody managed to update anyway.

Please reconsider.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
If you have an example of this breaking something, then yes.

But so far, it works just fine.

Users of patched modems that lost EFS can work with the kernel without further patching.

I am running my XXDLIB modem without issues.

The only change was the modem loader which does not check the signatures anymore, so it loads what it gets.

Still, if you have an example where something is not working, please let me know.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Undervolting only harms stability, nothing else.

You might have freezes and due to that loose data/files.

But there is no harm to the damage.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Aaah, no no. No worries, I will never try to mess around in modems or EFS file structures.

The only thing is: I replaced cbd (which is the modem loader as you know) with one that does not check for signatures in modems and load them anyways.

This allows to use the "old", unsigned EFS V1 modems still as they get loaded. Same goes for patched modems.

Nothing else. I do not want to go any risk for stability as you know :)

Andi I have a question about charging

I bought my phone exactly 1 year ago

1/ I set everything default => charging rate is painfully slow

- I monitor input level, it always moving from 1000 -> 800 -> 400 -> sometimes stucked at 500mA, sometimes 300mA when the battery level is ~10% => super slow charging

- Change AC input to 1000mA => same

2/ I have to enable "ignore unable power" and turn off "ignore safety margin" => charging speed is very very fast as I expected. However, does it include "ignore safety margin"?

- According to my test, input always stays at 1100mA no mater what battery level is. When it reaches 90%, still 1100mA even when battery is fully charged => still 1100mA. Of course I refresh before I read the level

=> this could mean my charger is crap but it can handle 1100mA when I turn on ignore unstable power

is it possible to set "ignore unstable power" but safety margin is still kept so charging rate will decrease gradually when battery level reaches 80%?

3/ I turn off both of them and set input to 1100mA. Turn off the phone completely and let it charge

- charging speed is very fast unlike when the phone is on

- I posted my battery stat with 5hrs screen-on in 2 days of usage so you know there is almost nothing to create wakelocks since I check with BBS and wakelock detector

- When phone is on, it takes too long, sometimes forever to charge the phone and this happens frequently

Thanks :)
