I've been using AOSP NeatROM for a while now, mostly with Boeffla kernel, which right now I'm using, NG, and had only 1 episode with NeatROM 6.4.1 where with the stock camera, while shooting video and snap, could only take 1 snap, then quit and restarted and it happened again. Then I flashed RohanAJoshi's v5 (that I use since it came out) and haven't had any other problem at all, I can take snaps just fine.

One interesting thing was when I had the quirks with stock camera in 6.4.1, I also had Google Camera and it worked perfectly, even taking snaps while shooting video. It kept working fine after v5.

So my bet is also on specific camera apps. I haven't checked the firmware revision of the camera for a while now...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] NexxP963:
I flashed ArchiDroid V 2.5.1 and Andi's V 2.4 NG beta and there are no problems with the camera. Everything works like it should.

For me ArchiDroid and Boeffla is a great combination.

I dont even have an external card, yet i have the camera error

That fix has already been merged with the CM builds a long time ago as far as i know, and yet the camera error is still prevalent

Are you having low volume when video recording or voice recording (on Omni) ? Could you pls check and lemme know?

I'm on latest CM11 but def miss my Omni [emoji45]

Yes, the issue was still there when i last checked and I am back on CM11 for the time being too :(

[Galaxy S III Android Development] AssassinGEO:
CM itself has always been problematic. For example,temasek ROM seems to be much more stable nearly all the time. Or another example is slimkat which has camera problems while neatrom has none. Camera problem isn't a global problem,it's mostly about the ROM.

Any ParandoidAndroid users here who are using the recent versions (4.41 - 4.43) and can give an advise which Boeffla Kernel Version (CM or OMNI) should be used / is working good on PA?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] raviainani:
Not a PA user currently but sure Omni should work out of the box... (Recommending according to previous posts in here)

i9300-cm11- boeffla-kernel-2.4-NG-Omni Version
[Galaxy S III Android Development] XDAMaxe:
as far as I remember the pa pacman devs refused to join an agreement of most kernel devs to generalize some framework thingies so that (programming) things get much easier for all (i.e. using unique names of variables so that a kernel dev must not modify his kernel for each custom rom).

Regarding this I guess that it is not recommended to use boeffla kernel (or Yanks, Archis, Arters or Temaseks as well) on pa pacman as long as they don't want to follow kernel devs suggestions - despite of the other 'not-amusing' behaviour towards [MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION].

and btw: there are lots of (better imo) alternatives like carbonrom or temasek or aosp-neatrom which are all on kitkat 4.4.4 r1/r2, so I forgot pa pacman at all ...

EDIT: sorry I meant pacman not pa, so it is not recommended to use boeffla (and other known kernels for i9300) on pacman because of the described facts
[Galaxy S III Android Development] NickName98:
Omni is always better! :D

I always use Omni version in roms that are not frequently mentioned :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ArslanQureshi:
I tried the latest Omni NG version on L-Droid ROM. My wifi turns on but wont scan I can see no networks and saved ones are listed as out of range even though I am sitting close to the router.. I had the same issue with ArchiKernel too please help me.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tisazalay:
I noticed the same, but it's a random thing.

Turn off wifi the turn it back on and it should work. I know it's a bit annoying when it happens though.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ArslanQureshi:
For me it doesn't even work once after rebooting with the new kernel I tried turning it off and on again rebooting the device wiping caches but cant get it to work...

Just found something that could be useful for you guys who like to play. I like to play with governors, though couldn't find one that would be good for constant(not extremely heavy) load in terms of battery drain. Seems like Pegasusqplus-battery is the one. Played a simple game non-stop for 3 hours - battery down just by 40%! Tried with more demanding games as well, battery is significally better and much cooler. Even any of zzmove battery saving govs didn't give me such results for constant load. Try it out, maybe it's just me:good:

How do you people get like 4 hours of screen on time. I average about 3 hours. I just use the phone mostly for youtube.

I'm using a AOSP based ROM should I use CM based or Samsung based boeffla kernel ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Adam3Sixty:
I am probably asking a question that has already been asked, but I am half asleep and about to go to bed.

I have clashed the NG kernel and everything is running perfectly, but what I want to know is this:

If there is an update of the kernel, and I use the app to flash a beta version, will it know I am using NG version and flash that, or will it just flash the normal version?

Thanx in advance.

Read the op, it's the first post. Depends on the Rom your using as you could also be omni based...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] abhibnl:
I get 4 hrs SOT with all day data/wifi usage. But watching youtube means continous heavy data usage, heavy resource usage, an heavy usage leads to low SOT. When i use wifi to download a movie, my sot decreases due to battery lost while transferring data. Try using BBS to track usage, but heavy data usage will lead to crappy battery lyf.

That's because the phone runs mostly at dual and single cores. Making micro and random phone stutters possible and noticeable. Lulzactive q works great for me.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] NickName98:
Sooo true

All this time I was trying to get the best battery life with other battery friendly governors like zzmove and when I tried pegasusqplus I was very impressed! :D

Also, try not to undervolt CPU or GPU.. It works much better for me like that :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] 2phazt:
Use a 2000ma charger for a stable and fast charge (wicked chili for example).

The stock one is a POS. It didnt serve me well after a half year of usage and broke after 2 years. The warranty was 2 years too...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] reS28raM:
...for the phone, but for the charger is six months only. Really a POS.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tisazalay:
It will download the correct version. I went from the test to the beta without problem, all NG. So when a new version comes out, you'll be ok.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andr3wchong:
question about the ignore unstable current

I've heard that it might damage the charger

but how about the phone / battery and if you plug in into PC USB or Mobile PowerBank ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] boyheadkick:
haven't had anything disastrous happen yet when charging through USB at 900mah with ignore unstable current
[Galaxy S III Android Development] 2phazt:
I strongly suggest to buy a real charger - you could squeeze the last drops out of the stock one, but it will wear out even faster.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
Ah, ok, i read about this "agreements" a time ago. And yes, Temaseks Rom is brilliant, i used it all the time before i gave PA a try.

But currently i'm using the Omni Version on current PA, and up to now it's working good.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] cloudx720:
Wonder why people saying the omni ng kernel works better than the cm one? Placebo mostly definitely.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] XDAMaxe:
on one side it works better because smdk4x12 is extremely outdated (samsung13 update is latest) because it is based on months/years old and left undeveloped exynos code.

On the other hand smdk4x12 is not genuine samsung (cm based on samsung 3,4,5 or 6 source, wasn't it ?) so it is per se not first choice - we had to deal with it though cos we had no other.

Until [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] 'adopted' (sorry Archi, idk how it is called in a correct manner) genuine samsung13 sources for i9300 kernel. imo this was/is a masterpiece for our i9300. As far as Archi explained this lets kernel work like stock - as reliable, as fast, as stable, as batt saving as stock.

So I think there is no questions why this ng kernel is better.

Old crappy smdk4x12 seems to achieve at most same performance and stability because custom kernel devs donated lots of time and work (to us) to make this crappy beast work. So maybe you don't experience a significant boost in performance and batt management at this moment of time, but the more the devs will optimize their kernels using the samsung 13 update sources the more you/we will get profit you can really 'feel'.

On my side the ng kernel has slightly better performance and slightly better batt behaviour. But keep in mind that ALL belongs to your individual needs and usage - the config options i.e. with boeffla config app are nearly overwhelming.

That's why I'm in love with Archi and [MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION] at the same time :silly:

(and last but not least we got crappy things left: cam, hdmi etc: no genuine samsung sources available cos samsung will never open that closed source thingies. That means cam must be accessed with third party apps and this is the cause why you will never get full feature experience with cam hardware, although there are lots of good working cam apps available. hdmi for custom roms is a pita and will never work. never.)

my 2 cents ...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] abhibnl:
I guess what he really meant was why Omni NG kernel is considered better than CM NG kernel? You gotta reas the guy's post again. But the xplanation was good though.

Sent from Galaxy S3 Powered by Archi + Boeffla
[Galaxy S III Android Development] boyheadkick:
Its actually the same explanation for when comparing CM and OMNI versions of the NG kernel..OMNI version should be better because of more updated sources than CM version..basically the same

-aL

[Galaxy S III Android Development] XDAMaxe:
puu, right and thanks, I was too fast. My apologies, never ment to bother the user.

cm versus omni ? depends on the rom base.

Months ago omni powered a lot developing i9300 thingies (they had single maintainer(s) for the i9300) thus omnirom had the 'better' developed rom (because of latest fixes, merges, features, etc.). In addition to (or explaining) that many devs working on cm joined omni because cm became a (profit-based) company. Those leaving devs (i.e. XpLoDWilD) don't want to support cm any longer because they said that some cm decisions are not opensource-minded or/and user friendly but due to their profit orientation and mass-marketing strategy. cm seemed to let things go, no i9300 maintainer left....

Anyway.

Fact was that omni worked more on i9300 than cm that days. And therefore differences between omnirom and cm became bigger and bigger

BUT: time changes. cm imho works very intense meanwhile and as of now there are - from development level - no big differences any more (but remember they are not equal).

That's why today it is not as important as before which kernel you choose. cm and omni kernel are very similar and in most cases they work both.

Which is better ?

As long as those benchmark apps are quite useless you can/must check by yourself due to your indivual needs/usage. imo there is no diff but I would always follow the kernel devs recommendation for safety reasons.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DualJoe:
Does Omni-NG suffer from the same Auditd crashes like CM11-NG? Anyone checked logcat yet? It crashes every 5secs, pollutes logcat and maybe influences battery/stability.

What's technically different between omni and cm kernels? What exactly differs in ramdisk?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andr3wchong:
ok thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] marenp:
Joe read a couple of posts before yours, everything is explained... And i dont have any problems with CM11-NG kernel at all using ArchiDroid 2.5.1
[Galaxy S III Android Development] abhibnl:
Well i agree! It comes to "What Works Best for you, is the best for you".

I disagree if you're speaking in regard to NG series. Both kernels are based on exactly same sources BUT different itramfs for the sake of rom compatibility. On smdk, yes, they are totally different source based.

Sent from Galaxy S3 Powered by Archi + Boeffla
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DualJoe:
But you can interchange them without problems between omni+cm or is it just for Temasek rom? Differences in initramfs can't be that huge i guess.

Yes! You can! I too changed both the kernels and both are working identical on my phone in terms of performance.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] cornelha:
Flashed the latest CM nightly last night, then flashed the latest CM11 NG kernel. Put my phone down for the night, decided to not put it on charge to see what battery drain would be like during deep sleep and well, the results speak for themselves, over & hours and only 2/3% battery drain. OC to 1600 with CPU min at 300, touch boost at 800, no zRam. So for those wondering, NG kernel rocks on CM11.
