[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanzlavos:
Hi All.. :)

First lemme give my phone details:

Galaxy S3 International (i9300)

Kernel : Siyah 1.8.9

ROMs (Dual Boot)

: WanamLite v5.5 (based on ZSEMA1)

CM10.1 Nightly

MODS : JKAY framework

My problem is that there is noticeable UI lags when in the homescreen or the app drawer. :(

I have not overclocked/underclocked the CPU. Have no undervoltage setting as well. In STweaks, the max CPU freq is set to the stock 1400Mhz and the min CPU freq is set to the recommended 200Mhz. And I have kept the "touch boost level" to 1200Mhz.

When I see the UI lags, I used CPU spy to monitor the CPU speeds. What I could see was that the speeds were at the lower end (200 - 800 Mhz) !!! Since the touch boost level is set to 1200, shouldn't the CPU jump to 1200 Mhz when I unlock/touch the screen ? I agree that the CPU speed needn't stay at 1200Mhz after the speed boost, but shouldn't it stay at a freq to ensure that there is no UI lag ? :(

If the operating freq is at 1400Mhz, the UI is perfect !!! It goes to this state automatically usually (takes a while :( ), or manually I can make this happen by setting the min CPU freq to say 1300 MHz from STweaks. Once this state is hit, the UI wrks with no lag until say I lock the screen, or maybe the device goes to sleep for a while.

Any ideas as to why the CPU freq stays at lower values and doesn't come up enough to give a lag free UI ? :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paintball23456:
ANNNNNNNNNNNND what rom are you talking about!?! CM10.1 or Samsung? if you want a LAGG FREE phone do the following.

1: OverClock the CPU to 1.6ghz, then set min to 500mhz, use a -25mV or a -50mV

2: Set Governor to LULZACTIVEQ

3: Set MIN GPU freq to 266mhz

4: Set MAX GPU freq to 640mhz

5: Disable "gentle fair sleepers" on the CPU tab

6: Set the SCHEDULER to CFQ

7: Go to settings and enable GPU rendering

and FINALLY if non of the above work, FLASH Null_22.1 for a Samsung ROM. and Revolt, cm10.1, jellybam for a AOSP rom.

IF NON OF THAT WORK'S download super wipe and flash a new phone.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 23Six:
Can I just say, 1200mhz?!?! Default is 800 and I'm using 700 on my device. It's a bit extreme.

Perhaps your governor is affecting smoothness. Try using pegasusq. Or it may be the app your using to change CPU frequency doesn't even have ROOT access

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
No. Do not disable hardware overlays. That will, if anything, cause your device to lag more.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paintball23456:
O_O not in my case..

Maybe you're just lucky, I dunno. It's better to let a real dev share his/her input on this. I'm merely a noob who knows how to Google... :p
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paintball23456:
L.O.L but not that big of a noob... :P thanks for the info - and also reminding me for the 100,000,000,000,000 time to sign up to rootwiki :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
Heh, maybe not. :p

Uhm, you're welcome, I guess? :good:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galactus:
It's probably smoother due to the fact that the CPU will be working at a higher frequency more often. Those that have disabled hardware overlays are causing their CPU to ramp up every time an application has to render an image
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanzlavos:
The lag is more obvious in the Touchwiz based Wanamlite ROM.

1) As i said, when running at 1.4Ghz (with stock voltage settings) itsef the UI is smooth. So I don't actually want to overclock. :) . The problem is that the CPU speed doesn't rise up and stays between 200-800 causing the lag.

2) Will try changing the governor (first let me read how it is different from pegasusq :) ).

3,4) Again, with stock settings itself the UI is smooth. The problem is what i have said under point 1.

5) Already done.

6) WIll try setting scheduler to CFQ (again, lemme read bout it first :) )

7) GPU rendering is already ticketd. Hardware overlays are not disabled (thought this would increase the lag).

Is NULL_22.1 a Touchwiz based ROM ? And Jelybam is an AOKP ROM I supose ?

Wouldn't want to do the last option. :D

Also, I saw that you have mentioned three ROMs in your signature. Siyah lets you dual boot right, how come 3 ? :D Or were you just talking about your preference ? :)

And, does siyah 1.8.9 for the S3 let us boot with NULL_22.1 and jellybam in dual boot? Are all these combos possible ?

Sammy + CM10.1 (this works, I knw :D )

Sammy + AOKP

AOKP + CM10.1
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanzlavos:
raminica seemed

From what I understood, it just boosts upto 1200Mhz on touch and needn't stay there. Right ? The only downside there is battery life I suppose ? :)

Am already using pegasusq and yes, sTweaks does have root access. ;)

Hi Guys!

I think I need your help. In the past I´ve flashed the stock rom via odin to my galaxy nexus. Now I want to back to Stock Recovery. Bootloader looks ok, but if I connect my Galaxy Nexus i won´t get a connection by "fastboot devices", I tried to install the driver but it will not be recognized. I´ve seen if I start my phone with into recovery that it will be in Odin Mode?! I want to go back to stock recovery, does anybody know if I can go back probably without loosing any data?

thanks for your great help!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samersh72:
do u have fastboot file on your pc?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Roni1979:
AW: Odin Recovery want back to Stock Recovery, any help?

Yeah I've but it if i go into bootloader fastboot will not recognize my GN. With fast boot it would be no prob to flash the original recovery that is my problem.

AW: Odin Recovery want back to Stock Recovery, any help?

OK I've solved one issue that the Gnex would be recognized by fast boot, was an issue with windows 8. But the second thing doesn't work. I tried to flash the recovery through stock but it is still the same with Odin. I tried "fastboot erase recovery and reflash it but still the same....

If you can boot into Android then you can dd the recovery partition. That's how twrp flashes recovery I think.

Assuming of course you are still rooted

I'm having issues with my WiFi trying to inniate and the finally says error.....I'm currently on viper Rom and have the boot.img a few times with no luck. I've also used the stock kernal modules and my phone still has this problem...I've seen a few threads about WiFi and have explored the resolutions but they do not work for me nor do the situations in those threads match my phones symptoms.....any guidance would be much appreciated......
[HTC Droid DNA] nrage23:
Did you flash the kernel modules in recovery after installing the kernel?
[HTC Droid DNA] mkzbdroid:
Yes and I have done the boot img first and then modules and reversed process as well but still showing error
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Go to a kernels thread.

Download the zip

Extract the zip.

Flash the boot.img

Flash the modules.zip

You how have working WiFi.
[HTC Droid DNA] cmos8088:
What version of Viper are you using?

I had the same problem and extracted the boot.img from the viperDNA_1.1.0.zip (might have been a bad download unsure I didn't check the md5)

I also did a factory reset and wiped cache in recovery and aroma. Version 1.1.0 doesn't like a dirty flash.
[HTC Droid DNA] ICruentusI:
The same thing is happening to me

This is the first android phone, so I do not have much experience in custom ROMs and that sort. A friend of mine led me through making a backup of my phone and I flashed the newest version of Viper, and thought everything was okay until I noticed that the WiFi wouldn't turn on. I then restarted the phone, reflashed the ROM, and then flashed another ROM. Every single time the WiFi wouldn't work. I finally gave up and restored to the backup that I made, and my WiFi works with it. Any suggestions on how to get Viper installed with working WiFi? I really enjoyed it.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
You have to flash the boot.img that is in the viper Rom thread.
[HTC Droid DNA] mkzbdroid:
I have flashed thru flash gui app and done it thru manually, no luck
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Where were you getting the boot.img from.
[HTC Droid DNA] mkzbdroid:
Directly from the viper Rom thread

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Locklear308:
This is a problem I've had way back since I first had my GS2. It seems to come and go, sometimes certain Roms don't have it, and sometimes they do. What on EARTH causes this issue?

Issue Example:

Music playing, lock screen, wait for a while...hear a text come through, press button to unlock screen and as it turns on the music stutters for JUST a second.

Very frustrating :[

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] janbe:
Hello,

My Nexus crashed yesterday, showing screen artifacts. Now it only gets to the Google Logo with the lock-symbol at the bottom. After a few seconds, it crashes again, again with artifacts. Recovery will crash in the same way.

The bootloader also shows these artifacts, but is (partly) functional.

My PC recognizes the device, but as soon as I try to flash, the bootloader crashes/is stuck at downloading the image.

"fastboot devices" works, showing my device, but "adb devices" does not show it.

What can I do to flash the stock ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] janbe:
Alright, I started a few things and probably fcked up.

The phone now only shows the following:

phone symbol ---- !(yellow triangle with exclamation mark) ---- PC symbol

I tried doing the OMAP Flash, but I think that did not work, as it still only shows those symbols.

Is there anything I can do now?

Considering the GS2 just got ICS, id say GN2 not only gets 4.2 but will realistically get KLP when its released and could possibly get updated beyond that
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Deleted member 2747343:
we will definetly get up to at least KLP before its outdated
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhxDroid86:
Also should note that the SG4 will most likely ship with 4.2 (was rumored at one time or another to ship with KLP) with an Exynos 5 OctaCore... but seeing how the OctaCore will only run 4 cores at any one time, the GNII 4.2 release shouldnt be difficult at all, if TMO/Samsung ever get around to it

I use LED Lightflow to manage all my notifications in one app. It's nicely designed and has plenty of features.

Another app that allows you to set individual tones for SMS contacts is SMS Sounds. It is a small app that is designed to be used in conjunction with a default messaging app.

My phone (galaxy mini) has battery life issue on cm10.1 rom, which is that battery drains very very fast. for example, i just do texting, browsing, tweeting and lil bit gaming, my phone battery lasts only for 4 hours, even less. i ve used tweaks, scripts, apps to improve the battery life.

I found these all work:

No. 1: calibrate your battery

drain your battery till your phone shut down, charge it till is full (wait till no charging sign on the battery icon - ignore charged notification on lockscreen).

do it couple of times.

No. 2:

a. change this line in build.prop

from

to

b. change egl.cfg

from

to

No. 3:

odex the rom (partially, so you are able to change phone's theme).

Follow these steps:

1. move these apps : contacts,

mms, phone, settings and systemui, from /system to another folder (use non-default launcher).

2. run the app (attached on this thread xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2156287 ).

3. ur phone will automatically reboot.

4. move back contacts,

mms, phone, settings and systemui to the /system after odex has finished.

No. 4: recalibrate battery using rom

(use lastest erikcas' cm10.1 rom or goldchang's cm10)

it happens times ago.

hopefully those work on ur phone.

credits belong to

rohan , erikcas and devs for awesome rom.

no.2 point a to dheeraj (dhlalit11) for build.prop tweaks thread.

no.2 point b to clayteau.

no.3 to nixoman for odex thread.

and goldchang.

g'day and salaam.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] A_U:
the trick is with battery stats wipe and not with goldchangs rom...that's quick calibration..

some times old battery data might cause excessive drain..so wipe battery stats also while installing a new rom...it wont effect much but u never know..i recently saw an article about this in google tech page somewhere

but mostly the drain might due to an app, so see if the app activity is still running in background even after u killed it..if such an app exists then uninstall it u will get more battery life.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dzeig:
actually, i wiped battery stats after fully charged maany times and freeze some apps too, those things didn't work.

well, like i mentioned before, i have no idea how it happens, but my battery life gets much longer, for real, yay.

yeah, but what if the 'background' app is must not be stopped i.e launcher, we shouldn't stop it right?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Nixoman:
we talking about 1200mah baterry, righT? manufacture said it last for 6 hours of Edge, that means heavy usage, right? so, if you are using your phone a lot, that means 6 hours of internet, mms and calling, it wont get any over 6hours...for me, facebook offiiciall app and whatsapp drain battery like hell...so i delete fb, but whatsapp is must for me...same result...so no matter you do, even with deep sleep, its 6 hours of heavy usage...i also have Nokia e7, same capacity of battery, and same durability, 6 hours of heavy usage, except on nokia e7 battery goes quickly for its screen , not background app...android consume a lot of battery, its a fact, so there is no a chance that someone else calibration or tweaks can result better battery capacity...but, if you set your CPU mhz at normal level (600-248 at ondemand), you can get a good battery backup...is that cpu level its ok for you, than its ok..but running cm10.1 with that cpu level for anything else but music and opera mini, its useless...so, what ever you do, its still 1200mah capacity, remember that...your usage, is something else
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dzeig:
take a look at my first post, my phone had has three 'phases':

1. rohan's rom before (poor battery)

2. goldchang's (awesome battery)

3. rohan's after (awesome battery, yay!)

my phone usage on those three is nearly same, even the number three i suppose is the heaviest because i haven't charge my phone till now (i charge whenever battery came to 4-1%, it's long enough from my last charging). take a look at ss.

here's a thread about battery calibration

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1821870

*there's a link tells that battery calibration is a myth, IDK
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] chemicalrage:
About Battery Callibration, I dont think it increases battery life. It just resets the .bin file stats to show the battery indicator (in status bar) correctly. Do it once after you flash a new ROM (after charging 100% + 15-30 minutes) & then calibrate either from CWM by resetting battery stats/ using the app in playstore called battery callibration . It will then show the correct battery indications.

Many people dont do this and then they complain about battery dropping suddenly but it is actually not dropping. Its just the indicator which is wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dzeig:
so is that means when indicator says phone is fully charged, the fact is not full charged?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] chemicalrage:
Only the first time you flash a new ROM. Just let that notification come and then charge an extra 15-30 minutes & then callibrate once. Thats more than enough.

Re: [Tips] Prolong Battery Life on Rohan007's cm10.1 rom

I tested battery with Extremely Heavy and Harsh usage. And it lasted for 1:40 mins.

What was the test?

Running whatever the phone could.

So what was running?

1. Wifi(scanning mode, not connected to any wifi)

2. Bluetooth (scanning mode all the time not just 120sec; not paired, connected with any device)

3. GPS with Gps essentials app: struggling to lock GPS for 15 min, then locked for 10min, then again lost the lock... in short it was alternating in lock and unlocked states with time gap of 10-15 min as I was indoor)

4. Video Playback: Alternating Background/foreground playback of 320x240 to 640x480 res Videos with mx player

5. Screen brightness 100%, wake lock on, speaker volume 50%, cpu usage 600mhz ondemand

6. camera on all the time(+ small 10min video recording), with gps essentials app

7. Egprs: 20min surfing, sync on all the time(no social apps)

8. May be I forgot something.

Specs:

Device: galaxy mini

ROM: CM7 autoradio v8 or CM10.1 (forgot)

Battery: A newly purchased genuine 15 day used battery.

Note:

Test date: 6-feb-2013

Everything I mentioned was CONSTANT, SIMULTANEOUS On for all the test period.

Battery was calibrated which was showing true stats.

I do not have any battery usage (right now searching for any screeshot if i captured, mistakenly :) )

phew, so harsh test. how did it managed. In normal scenario the battery only last for 4-5hrs with no gps, wifi, Bluetooth, camera or 3g on. Maybe I will switch to Stock rom for long lasting battery usage as battery charging even when the phone is off is totaly, wierd.

Like post? :) Just Thanks me in ur hearts, no need to "presss" thanks.
