Just sent you a PM Pwn. This is awesome, my eyes will be peeled to this thread!

Pwn was the first to bring us 10.2. Looks like he'll be the first again. :)

when i change to front camera phone stop and reboot :/
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] czechpunk:
When i open up thread I see complaints already addressed </poor grammar & punctuation>

Seriously, Pwn already posted that camera was borked in latest CM nightly, that the next nightly has a fix and he will be pushing a build when available...

Please read next time...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] phoenix2217:
While I get your point, I don't see how his grammar and punctuation have anything to do with the issue. English is probably not his primary language. I'd like to suggest pointing out his mistake without insulting him next time. This isn't like other threads around here.

Pwn, I'm in for testing a 4.4 build as well - I think the votes are there
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rob_z11:
I have the same problem. I did flash this morning before wife went to work, and got angry phone call in the morning to come fix her phone. She told me not to flash again, but you know that wouldn't be right. Lol.

I just have to make sure that I do flash night before.

I had similar issues one one of the previous build, and I wonder if it is caused by gapps.

Thanks MJ for posting the zip file and to Zapper for pursuing this and going through the motions as it help and confirms it for the rest of us who also totally dig the quantum circle boot animation !!!!

Additional side note, I tried both of my cameras and the front and rear both work perfectly...I take it that problems only apply to some phones depending on the "personality" of each of our phones..?

KitKat is a bit weird but also nice at the same time.

Would that work even if that's for the Note II?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
That's probably a fault on my side. It sticks for me but I always wondered. Just try and see if you can get it to stick, otherwise I'll pop out another release.

ALSO.

I NEED HELP.

Is anybody getting bam_dmux_wakelock with the new kernels with Westwood enabled?

How is everyone's battery life? Getting 0.8% drain idle overnight.

How is everyone's bluetooth audio? Has anyone notice it has been fixed when disconnecting/reconnecting?!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dhanamjay:
First, Thanks for the rom and kernels. First, thanks for the rom and kernels. I was using your kernels (with carbon rom) for a while and they give me a very good battery life regardless of what governor used. Now I am using Quantum rom 2.31, phone crashes after opening webex app for a meeting.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
I don't know what webex is, do you have a logcat or can you give me more details on what exactly was happening? 2.31 seems to be a buggier release, I would stay on an older version with the newer kernel. If you can give me more details I can see what's going on and hopefully fix it!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] moz68:
I am getting the same wake lock . working on 16 hours battery time currently at 40% with 3 hours 40 mins of screen time on latest Slim Halo on your 11.5 kernel running interactiveX and fiops. Hope this helps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
Man you do realize those stats are amazing right? What are your settings/ extended battery?

It seems like your bam wakelock is nowhere near as high as mine. Maybe it's time to go back to stock. Have you noticed faster data with the new kernel?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] KorGuy123:
I unplugged my phone from charger for 30seconds and it was already there. I'll keep it off charger all day and see how long it runs but it was almost instant.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] moz68:
No extended battery. Same Battery that came with the phone when it first came out.The only thing I change in interactiveX is Hispeed Freq to 918. All the rest is your Awesome work!! I use Greenify too. I uninstalled Seeder when you said it was Obsolete with the newer kernels. I love Westwood, may just be me but it does seem faster. Man, I love your Kernels!! Your ROM kicks Ass too!

Thanks so much for your hard work!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] curls00:
Wake locks from my phone... Using Westwood, 256/fiops, and InteractiveX with no OC. 2.31 with its packaged kernel.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
Now that's what mine looks like sort of. Keep an eye on it, connecting to wifi fixes the issue. I can't figure out what it is now. Hm. Which ROM are you using?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dhanamjay:
Thanks for the quick reply. webex (developed by cisco) is online meeting app for most work places. I will give it a try with older release. I have attached a logcat, before the phone screen is off and only way to turn on screen is rebooting the phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
Did you ever use Klin's Kernel Plus? It's where I got a lot of my inspiration from. Those are about the settings that I use, minus fiops in favor of row.

Any schedulers nobody uses so I can trim down the kernel maybe? I'm looking to add things in and remove useless things. Maybe it's time to reintroduce the GPU overclock since I have Simple in there...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
Awesome. The issue is that you never disable MP-Decision under trickster settings. You had two hotplugging methods competing with eachother to on/offline your second core.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] KorGuy123:
Turning on wifi or connecting to wifi gets rid of it? I'm at work on the road so I can turn it on but can't connect

Quantum 2.31 with 11.5 kernel.

I just switched to the guy above recommendation for battery life.

Interactivex with fiops simple and Westwood.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
the bam_dmux wakelock is related to the wireless radios, usually 3G. I gotta figure out what the problem is, as it may be the ROM.

Not sure if anyone else is having this problem but Im using the last build 2.31 and the latest kernel. When ever I try to use the front facing camera, my phone reboots. It this has already been addressed, I apologize in advance.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
It's a known issue on this build, next time search! Just use keywords like camera or reboot.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-i747m
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dhanamjay:
Thanks for pointing that out. That helped in solving screen freeze issue. Although, MP-decision setting is enabled by default after reboot. Can you disable permanantly in the kernel itself? However if I use that webex app and start a meeting, phone is rebooting, I believe logcat is after reboot will not help? I don't have adb installed to get the logcat at the time, I will try older release and see if that makes any difference, I wonder this app is accessing front camera and crashing, like other posts suggest? Quantum-2.3 has no issue with front camera?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] KorGuy123:
It isn't out yet. The risk of bricking it would/should be 0. I highly doubt pwn would release a ROM that will brick anything...

Roms don't cause bricks, people who don't read or pay attention cause bricks.

Write that down...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] joshuagalipeau:
noted, thanks. patently awaiting the arrival of KitKat ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
4.4 won't cause a brick, but it has a good chance of SOFT bricking your phone. Meaning you will just have to reboot into recovery and flash another ROM. I won't be able to install every build as my phone has recently became something of a life-line for me as of the moment, but I will put up any work I can do on the builds.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] colt45x:
You've used the app before does it access the front facing camera? That's got to be the problem though, because same thing happens to me when I open snapchat, phone just reboots, on 2.31.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
Don't worry I have a new build in the works, just wanted to start the kernel from scratch to see if it was my error on some weirdness.

Sidenote: What's your view on this:

http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...s-5-wont-come-to-other-devices-any-time-soon/

How does this affect AOSP based roms? No left-swipe for google now? etc.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Plays2:
This wont affect us at all. I have the "Google experience" launcher from the nexus 5 on my s3 right now. All it takes is putting the .apk in the rom zip or putting the launcher source into the rom or even just downloading it and installing it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aex90832:
Well yeah, but what about building a KitKat-ized Trebuchet? I guess what I'm asking is whether this affects CyanogenMods' ability to build Trebuchet with all of the "Google Experience" features included. (With the obvious CyanogenMod tweaks and additions)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Plays2:
Well I'm sure they'll take the source and make some modifications. But only time will tell I guess(:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DexedrineXR:
I will report later about the bam_dmux_wakelock. Right now that seems negative for me.... idle drain over night for me is around 9% for me. I'll have to play around with more settings.

It only seems that whenever the frequency lock is enabled in trickster mod, the max is set to 1.8Ghz only for core 1. With it disabled the min and max sticks to the user's setting...

However, and like usual, bench mark apps usually don't listen to the user's min and max settings unless frequency lock is enabled. If the kernel is overclockable then so will the bench mark test be.

The main problem is finding out why core 1 thinks it can overclock itself when frequency lock is enabled. Trickster mod uses a permissions trick to ensure certain apps don't override the user's min and max.

Maybe it's trickster mod causing this? Maybe the new update caused it? Maybe the permissions trick doesn't like the automatic mpdecision? I'll try using a different kernel tuning app and post later about it.

EDIT:

And BAM, there it is. A 10 second wake lock for me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
The wakelock, how long were you on battery before it got to that point? And it was an issue in my kernel setup, I fixed it this time around and I'm working on getting 2.35 out the door!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DexedrineXR:
It was around 80% before I got the bam_dmux_wakelock. It's very little though.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
That's exactly what I meant! When you look at it, you have to be super distracted or you actually have to try to brick your phone for a hard brick.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
Oh then that's not an issue at all. Nevermind!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DexedrineXR:
I'd brick my phone, only because I have backups and jtag.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
To whoever is downloading 2.35... shame on you, gonna end up with a non functioning camera!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Dang, I'm jealous. I wouldn't want to just because it'd be an inconvenience because I wouldn't be able to use my phone for a couple of days until I find a solution, then I'd have to update to 4.1.2, download all apps and stuff, root, flash a recovery, back up, install Quantum, and set-up all over again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DexedrineXR:
Which commit broke the camera? Because if it's just the camera application I could just swap out the apk from the 2.31 build.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
Seems like it's something inside the kernel. It's actually pretty weird because I can't find a single thing in what the issue is with it. Only stock kernel works.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MJPollard:
Well, that's it, then, isn't it? You're just going to have to scrap the whole thing and start over from scratch with CM11. ;) :D :cool: :p
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
That would mean making the whole kernel again from scratch. Not even including any custom bits.

It seemed like the camera issue was caused by the -O2 optimizations. I got rid of them and everything is working, so who knows
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MJPollard:
Dude, I know, I was just kidding. I get punchy-silly when it's close to bedtime. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PwnCakes193:
Official builds are now up on dev host. Go at it, everything is finally as it should be.

I'm also fairly certain that you can install the new kernel over 2.31 and get a working camera.

Off to eat pizza! I'm finally done with ROMs for the day :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Hurray! Downloading! You're the man, pwn! :highfive:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DexedrineXR:
I was looking at that. Did you remove -O2 optimizations completely? The camera worked just fine with the 11.5 build.

EDIT:

Make sure you download and flash one of the 4.3 versions, not one of the 4.4 versions (the 4.4 versions are for KitKat, not Jellybean). Look about 3/4 of the way down in the post for the 4.3 versions; click on the "Show" button to see the links. I recommend downloading and flashing either the Full Modular or Mini Modular packages, depending on whether you want a "full buttload" or "bare essentials" package of Google apps (Mini Modular is usually fine for most people).
