[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FlowingAway:
Guys just got a GS3 and flashed this kernel. Total noob with the undervolting/profile settings and such. I'm looking at these screen on times some of you guys are getting and my results couldn't be further away. So far my battery is at 69% today and my screen time on is only 46 minutes. Also Android System has used 21% of my battery drain thus far. This doesn't sound too good to me, any secrets or tips on how to improve this?

Im not using my backlight as bright as normal i use lux Autobrightness so that, plus tips we all discuss and managing radios logically can extend battery life. Im on a extended battery others on stock battery will get what is more common on a stock battery. So it depends what is comparable.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
Okay as mentioned extended battery. Using Ktoonservative and bfq. Using radio off when i dont use them.

So a person on stock battery got 6 1/2 hours sceen on. Enough to make you drop your jaw. So i got 11 hours screen on above on my 4500mah Onite battery thing was super cheap on Amazon.

Now i made brightness only as bright as i needed to be able to see screen at the time wherever i was. In future ill use just slight more brightness to make it just a little easier to see.

This is insane i had a hard time believing it as i used it all day yesterday and today.

Kinda noticed in this thread, everyone's oc for benchmarks lol.. Isnt that like cheating? It's outside the parameters they hardware is meant to stay in max XD that's like shoving jet fuel in a car and comparonf scores (although a cars engine would explode massively when it would ignite jet fuel)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
lol i guess you can see it in either perspective. these cpus though are 1.5ghz nominal and are configurable to beyond 2106mhz but no one had them stable to anything higher than that so kernel developers just released 2106mhz as the highest speed one can overclock. might of been a 2.2 around but not on our phones maybe another with the same snapdragon processor.

If just comparing a rom then yes to see how performance is on a rom comparing a 1.5ghz bench run to 1.5ghz bench run from another rom is a better comparison yes. For such high overclocks if a slight undervolt is applied its still stable but runs cooler. 2.1 under a constant load for a long time yes may be too hot for these phones.

for everyday use with a demand based gov over 1.5 ghz is feasible for daily use because at idle it will be at much lower clocks. a better range may be about 1800mhz max. most people seeking battery life stick with stock max and even drop a few mhz.

in some ways i see what you mean, like comparing a v6 to a v8. some though try to see if their v6 ran as a v8 if it is almost as fast ;) people cant add cores so they add mhz.

If thats happening you didn't successfully clean install. I usw CWM recovery. If you before installing rom try this

Wipe dalvik

Wipe cache

Factory/data reset

Mount make sure system and data is mounted

Have external sd removed to be safe

Mounts

Format every option in there. But if your on older cwm dont touch emmc. Now go to reboot recovery

Once rebooted do it just once more with external sd out of phone. Obviously make sure you have anything important on internal sd saved else where.

Redo the above formatting each partition under mounts. While cwm is on plug in external sd and reboot recovery.

Now the norm but dont format anything.

Wioe dalvik and cache, mount system, data and external sd card making sure not to hit format.

Back out go to install from sd card

Select external if you have one like me and install rom and gapps. Reboot recovery, wipe dalvik and cache and again

Mount system, data and external sd

Install from zip

Select your kernel install but i usually use a handy wipe old kernel tool then flash kernel. Wipe dalvik, and cache, fix permission reboot phone. Set up account reboot phone to recovery, hit fix permission which will take more time the second time reboot and all should be great on any rom for cwm recovery this should work.

Some steps may be repeated but for me in past been necessary as I had same issue. My entire sd internal was always not formatted from last install when i didn't do this. In the above internal sd may say its not installed in recovery. But when I do the above its completely wiped. I take the external out then because ive accidentally formated my external with important data on it. I hadnt even formatted my external i had hit internal when it happened. This was last revision not latest of cwm but i do it the same now.

You use one or the other. Going from twrp to cwm i forget how it went. I would just read up the entire post. Watch the videos and download and launch toolkit. I think all this involves odin and download mode... Check out everything before you attempt. But the process involved is not much different then when you installed TWRP.

Does anyone else recommend to use CWM over TWRP or vise versa? Because this has worked for me and if TWRP is working it could be fine to stay with it. Does TWRP have similar wipe functions?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Geteamwin:
Honestly, how are you guys getting such high quadrants? I can't seem to pass 4,000. This is with cm10 and the kernel, and I have the processor overclocked.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mw86:
The very post above is from Jelly Bean Touchwiz. My results from CM10 base... AOSP are above near top of thread. They are scoring different. You can check results above. For quadrant on AOSP I got about 5700+ posted above. Antutu though i got 9700+ on AOSP and doesnt get near that on JB Touchwiz. Just barely 9k if lucky on Touchwiz in Antutu. Seems the benchmarks differ. Both should score similar but what we see is opposite scoring. One on AOSP scores higher and one on JB Touchwiz scores higher than the other. Still testing trying to paint a picture of performance for AOSP rom vs JB Touchwiz roms on the same kernel and similar overclock. I plan to use more than Antutu and Quadrant. Stillbuilding results. I did this for ICS touchwiz vs AOSP and results showed AOSP more efficient but ICS Touchwiz scoredhigher in Java performance and in benchmarks like Chainfire. 3d benches most scored a few fps higher on ICS touchwiz. Stuff like linpack for Android usually scored double what you get in AOSP. It is hard to say why the differences exists. Between all the benchmarks some results could be from erroneous or skewed results. The differences other tests like Stability Test have are showing almost no difference and it is a linpack type test so its hard to say which has the higher performance still. My subscore for Antutu in CPU on AOSP seems to be unmatched by it on its Jelly Bean Touchwiz counterpart. Same goes for Jelly Bean Touchwiz. My 12k cpu subscore in Quadrant is unmatched by quadrant scores on an AOSP rom. So its really strange and hard to tell what is what.

We are benching on high performance governor or governors tuned for performance. I used 2106mhz max. But others noted what they used above.

Linpack for Android

Edit: this linpack for android above was on freeGS3 a Jelly Bean Touchwiz rom

Been waiting to come here & post some righteous stats. ;D I'm actually oced to 1674 on wheaty, cfq and no uv, screen off 486 on demand, no touch boost.. I actually forgot to uv on this run..:sly: Getting some pretty darn good battery life. Just overclocking to one step up on Ktweaker has really made things snappier. I also froze everything I could think of that connected to net while I was asleep last night. I'm around 15 hrs now at 50% as I type this. Anyway will return once I'm @ 1% and see what grand total of screen & full time is.:) Going to read up on Kts thread and this one also and see what I missed the since last night at late thirty...Will post stats here in same post once I'm done. Tks for the thread op!

Looking forward to details. I haven't tested wheatley, but it looks pretty promising.

I've been tuning a governor of my own design. I'm currently at 16+ hrs, 5 hrs screen, and 25% left. This has to be a fluke.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] :
This is 3rd cycle from 100-3% or so which really isn't enough time for kernel to settle..I usually wait till about two days to judge because things need to be well settled.. I don't run anything in background, all it does is burn battery.. I just update manually which takes about 2 secs to refresh an app/widget...I always leave sync off except when i wanna sync then i just hit it for a min or so and flip it back off. I froze all apps that I could think of that wake up (Fb, most socials & a few others, maps..) Location was off for about half the time.. Posting a screenshot of settings, i didn't uv on this run. I am undervolting now tho..:)I do keep WiFi, lte, data/3g, sync, gps all that OFF when I'm not using it and just texting or talking..etc.. I was on wifi at home most of the day maybe just 20 min or so 3g.. Also I learned a new trick a few wks ago to see wakelocks, new to me at least.. If you open terminal emulator you can type su (press enter) then type dumpsys alarm (press enter) you will see a list of wakes and alarms ...You can look at what waking your device.. Lately I've been freezing about 10 apps w/ titanium backup.. These stats are with a great signal too so that really helps. I have a airave at home and been home most of today except a 30 min trip to store...

Anything that's not qosmgr so the system doesn't know where to find it. "qosmgr.bak" would be fine in case you need to restore it later.

Except for hwcomposer blowing up :eek: and taking some battery stats with it, it's been a good day today. I finally broke the 6 hour screen time mark (hwcomposer mishap notwithstanding). I'm running 384/1512 min/max, custom governor, moderate undervolt, touch booster on at 918/594 (which the governor handles decently, but I'm changing tomorrow), stock battery. Custom governor is pretty snappy, considering the battery life it's putting out.

I've got more tweaking to do tonight. Now that I've passed the 6 hour mark, I'm going for 7! If hwcomposer cooperates and I let my phone sleep for a few hours, I expect to post some amazing battery life tomorrow.

Hmm...49% of 17 hours and 45 minutes is around 9 hours. Wonder why it says your screen time is only 5 hours...

By custom governor I take it those are tweaks made under "governor adjustments"? Would you mind sharing those along with UV settings? Or even better yet when you had the extra time... upload your settings so we could load them with KTweaker? Thank you in advance.

That's percent of total power usage, not percent of total time.

It's a new governor written (mostly) from scratch. Once I'm satisfied that it's tuned optimally and won't catch anyone's phone on fire, I'll send the code to ktoonsez to (hopefully) be included in his kernel. If anyone is interested, I could post my build of the kernel with the governor included.

Stable UV settings will be a little different for everyone, but you can use mine as a starting point. Apologies for the nonexistent formatting.

No problem on the formatting haha. I'll try out those settings and would definitely love to get a build of your kernel if it's easier/timlier than getting your governor into KTweaker. I just graduated to flashing kernels so still learning about them. And I always thought when you go to settings>battery>screen that the "time on" referred to actual time the screen was on. Thanks for clarifying that.

[Sent from my cellular telephone via wireless transmission]
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] decimalman:
The time is actual time, but the percentage is power consumption.

I don't want to release the code yet because I'm refining the default tuning more every day. Beyond that, ktoonsez is out of town and is postponing the next release of the kernel. It may take a little while before anyone sees a "final" version of the governor.

Tomorrow, I'll post a development version for testing and so I can get some feedback. It's way, way past my bedtime. ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 1afly:
Is it possible that this kernel would change the brightness of the LED when the phone is on and charging? What about the phone not showing 100% charged after 8 hours on the charger? Also for my boot animation it is completely black until the home screen. I've also flashed a custom battery icon from the mods section...

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] decimalman:
Somebody (but I don't remember who) was working on LED brightness, but didn't get very far. I think they decided that it just wasn't adjustable even if they adjusted the voltage going to it.

You may have luck getting your battery to show 100% by recalibrating it. Instructions are buried in the first post here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1830157

Black boot animation sounds like a ROM issue. I've never had any problems with this kernel not showing it. Check your ROM settings, many have an option to disable it for faster booting.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] decimalman:
Testing Kernel Build

I've uploaded a zip with ktoonsez's kernel (AOSP version, not for TouchWiz!) with my governor included. I made a few tweaks a couple minutes ago that are keeping everything nice and smooth, but I expect battery life to suffer a bit. If anyone's feeling daring, I'd love some feedback!

Instructions:

Download from: http://d-h.st/EDc

Flash however you usually would. I forgot to remove a script that locks my settings (including undervolt), so before you reboot, use aromafm or similar to remove /system/etc/init.d/90cpufreq. Otherwise, settings will be locked, settings apps will crash, and your phone may not boot! Seriously, remove the file. Sorry.

Change governor to "dmservative" (working title :D). I'd strongly recommend the following settings:

Min/max frequency: 384/1512 (I haven't made any attempt to tune for other frequencies, but you could try anyway)

Touch booster 1st/2nd: between 918/648 and 1134/810

Give your phone a workout and let me know how it runs!

EDIT: initscript derp. Can't be bothered to build a new kernel given the current response.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 1afly:
Thanks for taking the time to actually answer a question AND provide a URL... class act decimalman!

The weird thing about the LED brightness is that it has been the normal out of the box brightness... the JB flash on FreeGS3 has done something to it...

Battery is now charging to 100%... if I can get a boot animation, a blue battery icon and the LED fixed I'm good to go...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] decimalman:
Earlier today I read that the stock ROM controls LED brightness based on the light sensor. It has to be adjustable somehow, but I don't know of anyone who's figured out how.
