Thanks for testing it. Let me know what you find out in terms of battery. Especially with the screen on. I feel like drain would be extremely prevalent. My processor is like me. It likes to sleep :p

That's extremely weird that it isn't working...I don't know why. Is that the jelly bean version? As long as the firmware version is consistent you should be fine. Not sure, but is there one on enewman's page with the battery circle mod? Might want to double check there.

I got the seeder running on my galaxy tab 10.1 and so far it is pretty smoking. it is running stock rom and kernel with root. sadly, there isnt a single TW based custom rom for it. only AOKP and AOSP. those are pretty crappy on tablets IMO because of the extra TW elements they added with regards to email and calender.

I have seeder running on my intergalactic. I chewed up the battery today flashing so much so ill let you know after a good 6 hour use.

so far after 22 mins of run unplugged, I have 7 minutes of cpu @ 384mhz and 8 mins of deep sleep with 6 mins of screen on time.

Is the beats mod working for anyone? Doesn't seem to have an effect when I use the headset. Is there something I'm missing to turn it on?

Beats works fine for me but in order to use it you need to use google play music rather than the samsung player and you need to activate the beats eq checkmarks in the app.

You're really quite interested in this! I'm liking it. Very curious to see the results of your testing. :)

Congrats on the status upgrade! Well deserved.

Just flashed your 12/27 build and am digging it so far, has all the mods I need and the stock stuff I like (the camera, motion, etc.). Thank you for your work on this! :good:

Will post back with feedback after I kick this rom around a little.

EDIT: Wanted to mention that I flashed the CWM for Seeder Entropy Lag Reduction found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2077086 (it's a Nexus 7 post but the cwm supposedly works on any device running Android 4.+). I wasn't noticing much lag if any but I can definitely tell the difference. Just thought I'd throw this out there for anyone who wants to try it (and if it works it can easily be cooked into a rom). :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
Thanks a lot! Also glad you're enjoying :)

The mod is definitely looking into and flashing. Keep me up to date on your findings as well. I might cook it into the ROM if there isn't an impact on battery life. Either way I have more tweaks to do under the hood for battery life anyway. Got some coming soon hopefully. :cool:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boostmx:
Kinda like the fact that you've tweaked things to a minimum. Keeps it solid and smooth and stock enough for people who like it. And for those who wish to flash the entropy lag reduction and other tweaks they can freely do so. You could just link the thread in the OP and for those that want it can flash it, seems simple enough. Just my two cents. :D Done my fair share of flashing ROMs with super tweaks and AOSP/AOKP/CM mods and all, and sometimes...nothing beats a good old stable stock ROM! :victory:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
Thanks that means a lot. Under the hood is where it counts. ;) I will probably post the link to the entropy generator once I have results from a few tests. I need to make sure it's not going to wreck anyone yet. Highly doubtful but I will keep my patience ;)

Anyway thanks for the kind words. Let's keep on improving this ROM :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandd:
stratatak7 thank you for a great ROM. I've flashed many different ROMs and like this one the best.

I added AOSP email by following this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1962097

I like the feel of it a little better than the stock email.

I really appreciate your work!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pickupman66:
Meh... not really sure about hte entropy at this time. what i feel I saw was it seemed to add a ramp up of the charge. in other words, it took FOREVER for my phone to register a charge after plugging it in. even with the larger output chargers like I use for my tablet and the powermat I use.

did I see an improvement, yea maybe. did ti seem to hold the cpu a bit higher, Yea maybe.

bottom line, Im not sure about it. Zep's posts were quite interesting as his method was quite different.

all in all, I think a marketed improvement is there for OLDER devices.

im going to test the method Zepplinrox has posted. seems he claims it will generate Entropy without any cpu overhead.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
AOSP email worked better for me too. They have it together over in google land. Ha.

My university email got switched over to Google servers lately so I don't have to use the email app anymore luckily. Hurray for gmail!

I really appreciate the encouraging feedback! Enjoy!

Oh wow. You're just having all the luck with battery related things lately aren't you? *cough*circlemod*cough*. And now this? That's really strange though...I wonder what's up with that. I always thought charging was 100% kernel hax when I was messing around with Entropy512's stuff. Guess that's just for quick charge though not activation time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] boostmx:
Yea just read this about entropy too: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/entropy-seed-generator-not-all-its-hacked-up-to-be/ use at your own risk.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pickupman66:
Please dont remove TW email. for someone on exchange, this is way better IMPO.

yea it was odd. I was watching it with a battery monitor and it just seemed to ramp up. what was a -85/hour rating then went to 0.0% for like 40 minutes, then ramped to +12%/hour. as if either something was running hard enough to push the processor into sucking up what the charger was giving it.

yea, my luck. Oh well. ive left the entropy scrupts alone and just did the SYSctl mod that Zepplinrox specified. phone is super fast and with only 30 mijnutes of screen time (at work so not using it) I am down 28% in 6.5 hours.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
I don't plan in replacing any of the stock apps. Just removing the crap ones and adding some extra ones like I've already done. Don't worry. Nothing is changing unless it's an upgrade without sacrifice.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] skrambled:
Damn, sorry I brought it up! :eek: Sounded too good to be true, should've known. XDA news usually gets it right. I saw increased performance on games but apparently it was a CPU tweak and/or placebo lol.

In any case, back on topic, loving the rom, nice and smooth, no issues whatsoever. Recommended it to someone earlier today. :beer:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
You don't have to be sorry, this isn't a dictatorship. ;) I like discussing possible improvements and anything that can be done to make it better. Speaking of which the new kernel I'm running with OC/UV seems stable and I'm already getting better battery life. ;)

Recommend it to as many people as you want. I'll gladly support them as well. Cheers! :cool: :beer:

I'm actually more excited about the XDA branded t-shirts and Galaxy S3 phone cases for $10 dollars on pre order. Haha
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pickupman66:
So.. back to the entropy. I am really seeing the tweak by zeppelinrox making a major difference on both my gtab and HP touchpad. Also on my gs3. Zero processor extra so far as well. Its worth looking at.

In terminal I changes the read_wakeup_threshold to 1366.

In terminal type:

su [enter]

Busybox sysctl -e -w kernel.random.read_wake-up_threshold=1366 [enter]

Default is 128 so u can change it back.

Strat, the thing I think I liked most about what ktoonzes kernel did was that you could lower the min MHz and also cap the screen off MHz. Right now I think we have 384 as the low and then deep sleep,

OK. So I noticed this the other day before I started tinkering with battery stuff and entropy. My toggles sometimes get wide. Check this out.

After reboot

Not sure when this happens or why. Seems to be after phone is on for while. All toggles are there. This is a clean install of intergalactic2 with only mods of acid with noozoxide and sysctl entropy mod.

I received a PM requesting an OTA updater app (from me, not from AT&T don't worry). How do you guys feel about that? I think it would be great and I'd be happy to implement it when I get time. That way when I release an update it gets pushed to you guys.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] enewman17:
This is a bug with the 15 / 23 toggles,

Can you post the stuff you've removed from your rom please? I like to have my facebook stuff sync with the calendar but the only this facebook will sync is the contacts. Usually it also has a calendar box to check off in the facebook account info section in settings.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] matrixzone:
OTA will be a good idea.. This will save us time while updating. Otherwise we have to download 800mb of file for every update.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] skrambled:
Yes please!!!

Just curious, are you talking about Goomanager or something else?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Organized_Chaos:
OTA would be nice. Just to clarify, that would mean only downloading the changes, not the entire ROM and it would not require a factory reset?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
I looked into this. When you say "usually", was that when you were on AOSP roms or stock-based. Just curious if you've tried it on stock Samsung JB. I don't remember there being anything but contact sync with the latest versions of the Facebook app on stock ROMs. I didn't remove the calendar or anything to do with it. It was mostly pointless AT&T apps.

I never knew goomanager had that capability so I guess I will have to consider it as an option. I was looking into something else right now. It should be easy since norbarb gave me free access to her ftp server. Then I can just provide the update off the server.

Correct! :) That's the idea. Of course there may be times where I consider downloading the whole ROM again to be a necessity. It's going to be dependent on the severity of the update. Typically, if I remove things or post a new build based on a different firmware, I'll have you redownload the whole thing. If I'm just adding features to my preexisting rom, I can basically just push an OTA. It's a bit easier on you guys! :cool:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pickupman66:
This may be a result of the Facebook sync itself, nit the rom. Look into haxsync. I use this for all Facebook syncing and it is FANTASTIC. I think its a paid app but its only a buck. You need the JB workaround too.

Facebook did make a major change to their app very recently. Instead of being web based, it now ties more to their back end. I checked the app and ssetting in accounts on both my gtab 10.1 running stock ics, and my wife's infuse running liquidspeed aosp and neither have the option for Calender. Only socialhub on my tablet had this.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
I did remove the SNS apk from the ROM which is specifically for Facebook. That might be the root cause. I don't know 100% though. That's my only guess other than changes to the fb app itself. All you have to do is download the stock ROM and add sns from and to>> /system/app and install the apk again. That should work. If you're not comfortable with this I'll make a cwm flashable package later on for you when I have a few minutes.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Skizzy034:
Thank you. That was it. It works now.

This is an off topic quick question but does your galaxy s3 get we towards the bottom of the phone? Is that common with this phone? I just got this phone the other day. The One X I had got really hot but towards the top.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
I'm glad that worked for you! :)

Yes that is common with this phone. The CPU is actually situated strategically on the bottom of the phone to avoid hot ears while talking on it. My Infuse was the same way with it getting hot on the top and I couldn't stand to be on it for more than 10 minutes.I'm glad Samsung did this. Oh and welcome to the Galaxy S3. ;)

Hi any ideas on how to get the wifi hotspot to work it keeps verifying on ATT.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pickupman66:
Interesting. I am using the sysctl. Not seeing any lag at all on any of my devices. No battery useage either on my s3. I'm over 15 hours battery time, right at 2 hhours screen time and I still have 42% left to go. I haven't talked much at all on the phone though. I have used wifi all day and Bluetooth for a bit.

I get the same hotspot verification. It has never done that before.

Sorry about that guys. I usually use a special app for tethering that reduces server pings to safely conceal tethering on a laptop/desktop. Tether by koush. Keeps the notifications away from AT&T no matter what. I'll update the OP later to reflect the tethering fix. I was afraid to incorporate it for fear of breaking something in framework.res.apk at the time. It might have to stay as a flashable zip until I fix it properly in the apk.

Alright I've made a few more modifications to the rom as well. When they're ready would anyone like to help me test? I will be sending test links out in PM only, so let me know guys.

If it works, I'll release the version pushed to you via OTA to everyone.

Wow I apologize to you guys who are waiting trying to download. I've been putting a lot of time into the update.

I'll fix you guys up with a mirror tonight unless you want to wait for the new version which should also be ready tonight. :)

Uploading a new version now. You SHOULD do a clean install for this one. It's highly recommended, otherwise problems may occur that are out of my control.

Changelog:

-New OTA updater app

-Minor theming changes (new wallpapers in the STOCK app [removed Samsung wallpapers, replaced with Intergalactic goodness], download icon blue)

-Added Samsung calendar widget back by request

-Added OC/UV Kernel (thanks InstigatorX for your help and work). I will include a download link to the original insecure stock kernel if you prefer to use that (flash stock kernel if you can't boot).

-CPU tweaker app added (recommended using row i/o scheduler and Intellidemand governor. Recommended factory settings of CPU min: 384 mhz, CPUmax: 1.51 GHz)

-AdAway app included

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
Hmm weird. Have you let the rom settle in and then go back into the app to see if you can change it? Can you explain what's going on? Also verify your MD5 checksum.

Another thing you could try would be another CPU app like voltage control. The only thing is that you can't undervolt with voltage control, you can only tune the clock and i/o scheduler.

Let the rom settle not really lol, I have been reloading ask the apps and changing all my settings back. I have restarted a couple times.

I prefer the task kernel. So then I need to install the kernel after installing the 2.1 RIM. Right?

Any specific reason to use the new kernel?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stratatak7:
Correct you can install the task kernel right after if you want. And it's all a matter of personal preference. I ran this because it's stable and I can undervolt while keeping things simple. I had some trouble with ktoonsez before, not to say that it isn't very well done. This one is a bit more simple and that's what I preferred to include. Plus I wanted to give InstigatorX's kernel a little more spotlight since it's been so good to me. Really just flash what you like as long as it's a touchwiz kernel. :) If you're worried about ktoonsez script not wiping things (it should but I haven't looked at it), flash the stock one first and then flash his overtop of that. You should be good to go from there for sure.
