Hi!

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 with latest Blisspop based on CM 12.1.

Does this kernel work on ROMS based on CyanogenMod 12.1 Lollipop?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
The CM12.1 version of the kernel works just fine.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] let92:
I think this is the correct link for CM 12.1 ROMS, right?

http://kernel.boeffla.de/sgs3/boeffla-kernel-cm-ng/cm12.1/changelog.htm

All I need to do is make a nandroid backup (optional) and flash the kernel, nothing else?

Then there will be an app to manage kernel settings?

Sorry for the many request, but I've never flashed a kernel :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] n0rbi666:
let92 - yup, do nandroid backup, then install kernel - reboot, and you will have new kernel installed :)

Config app you have to download from http://www.boeffla.de/index.php/downloads/current-kernel-versions - Boeffla Config V2 App :)

After you install it, it will automaticly update if there is new version of app.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] let92:
All right, thanks for the help! :)

Edit: if something goes wrong, if I restore the nandroid backup I've done, there will be the last kernel or the new one flashed?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
When you restore the Nandroid backup you will have the kernel restored which yuo backed up - so the "last" one.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] let92:
Thank you! Can you send me the correct link for downloading the kernel for CM 12.1 ROMS based please?

I noticed that the link I posted is only for the changelog :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
This is the one you need - http://kernel.boeffla.de/sgs3/boeff...rnel-4.0-alpha18-CM12.1-NG-i9300.recovery.zip

Then get app from http://kernel.boeffla.de/bcv2/2.3.7-boeffla-config-v2.apk
[Galaxy S III Android Development] let92:
Thank you very much!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] limjh16:
Try not to post direct links, it'll break sometimes.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
Sorry - it was a one-off, but he did look like he was having trouble finding it. Of course he should go to www.boeffla.de and find it from there.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] let92:
I went there, but I've found only a link for CM13 ROMS.

Luckily you gave me the correct link :o
[Galaxy S III Android Development] orsonbear:
To find all the OLD Boeffla's kernel:

Go to www.boeffla.de, then in the site menu on the right choose "Download" then "EOL kernel version" , there is latest CM12.1 Boeffla kernel plus other EOL (no more developed, no more supported) Boeffla's kernel. Cheers!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] let92:
Perfect! Thank you for the interest!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Come on guys. The site is not that complex.

I am not starting spoon-feeding now :)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] hecko:
i use stable kernel 5.0 and

cm-13.0-20160803-NIGHTLY

is MHL possible?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ScratMan38:
No, MHL is Samsung proprietary code.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
For MHL you have to use Samsung stock firmware.

It will never work on CM unfortunately.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] hecko:
this is sad.

can you plz explain why it will never work?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
It was mentioned already... it is proprietory code which Samsung does not release (because they do not have to - their firmware roms are not under GPL as roms generally are not).

Without that code, CM team cannot put the support into the rom, hence it will never work.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ScratMan38:
Except if somebody take in charge the HUUUUUGE reverse engineering work of making a wrapper, like ljzyal did for the fingerprint sensor on Galaxy S5.

But as you need to buy dedicated Samsung adapter for MHL, there is small number of people interested by using MHL with CM ; while for fingeprint scanner, all Galaxy S5 had it, so every CM user could use the scanner. This made reverse engineering for scanner much more attractive than for MHL.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Yes, and much easier way is to purchase a miracast stick (or even chromecast if required) - this will then not be dependent on any proprietary stuff anymore and working with all Android smartphones.

On top, many modern TVs have miracast already built in (my Samsung has, so I just transmit my stuff over wifi).

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] orsonbear:
Andi, please, can you tell me if the Zram disks provided by the kernel can be 1 2 or 4 and not even 3 for a precise technical reason or for your choice? I ask this because on your old kernel I could force 3 Zram disks while the recent ones I cannot do it easily with a script as before I did. Thank you!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Yes, the can be 1, 2 or 4 only.

And I believe that was never different? I cannot remember I ever allowed 3 zRam disks.

Technically you could make them 3 also if you like to, but then you have to configure zram manually by a script etc.

I think meanwhile, having one zRam device is the choice anyways. I am not convinced of the theory anymore, multiple zRam devices (especially as many as the CPU has cores) has any significant advantages.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] orsonbear:
I used 3 zram disks for testing purposes on your old V5 beta 34 forcing 3 disks by some scripting. Now to test 3 zram disks I must change the script, that's all! :) Have a nice vacancy!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] H4RTI3:
LED brightness

So after 5.1-beta4 when the LED control was removed, there is no way now to set the LED brightness.

Normally there is no option for that in the Settings app (for the S3).

So I ran a private build with the LED brightness control explicitly enabled on the S3.

But also after enabling that, the brightness control for the notification LED in the Settings does not work (it always stays the same brighteness).

I wanted to ask if there is any way to get this working in the Settings app or if it would be possible to reimplement the LED brightness option into Boeffla-Config (at least for the S3)?

I know you don't actively work on the S3 anymore but this is kind of a regression.

Thank you in advance.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] limjh16:
Are you using official CM nighties? I think it'll only work with that.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] orsonbear:
If you use a CM or derivative rom you can set the notification led brightness by choosing a darker led color.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] H4RTI3:
Yeah I'm using official Nightlies.

---------- Post added at 18:15 ---------- Previous post was at 18:11 ----------

But this is just a workaround, because there is (or should be) a proper setting for that.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JohnnyMwanza:
Is there backlight notification support?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Use a different, darker colour instead.

That's also what I did.

And nope, I will not bring it back as there are ways to exactly achieve what was possible before.

And on top additional things are now even possible. So I am convinced of that approach.

Exactly, that is the way to go.

No, this is not supported.

And due to the eol status of my s3 work, I will not implement it.

(apart from the fact I don't understand why this should be used when we have a nice notification led...)

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JohnnyMwanza:
OK I understand but would have looked cool...[emoji14]
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Well, honestly... an up-to-date phone with that function would even look cooler. In the end it is just a gimmick.

Anyways, mabe some other kernel devs that still actively develop on the S3 put something like this in.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JohnnyMwanza:
Its alright but am loving this kernel on my s3 its stable and works awesome thanks by the work for ur hard work
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Blackinertia:
Hello Andi, the snapshot for s3 is coming, the beta5 will work too with it? Thanks :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
It should 99,9%.

We have anykernel method now, so the older ramdisk of the snapshot will be used properly.

Also there were no significant code changes in the past weeks.

So I am very confident.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JohnnyMwanza:
having a problem with s3 screen flickering and battery drainning fast... :( help please
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Boulaxx:
CM Snapshot

Hey Andi, please can you make a stable kernel for cm 13 snapshot on i9300?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Screen flickering is sometimes a known CM13 issue.

Fast battery drain is not kernel related.

Guess you never read through the FAQ on the kernel homepage...

No, why should I?

Latest beta is perfectly suiting snapshot release. Due to anykernel concept, special kernel versions for snapshot are not required anymore.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Boulaxx:
Okayy thank you so much for the clarification
[Galaxy S III Android Development] limjh16:
Sad that people never do...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Hi all,

update to the CM13 Boeffla-Kernel for you.

Version 5.1-beta6

19.08.2016

Update: Updated with latest official CM kernel commits as of 19.08.16, 8am CET

New - experimental: UMS mode for external sd memory available again (only use with latest Boeffla-Config app 2.3.8 for safety reasons)

Change: Improved compatibility with SuperSu

Change: Default entropies changed from 128/256 to 64/128 again, as this is now configurable by users anyways

Change: Support Boeffla-Config app with entropy configuration

Change: Improvements to anykernel script (credits to Osm0sis)

Change: Controller cleanup

Make sure, you update to latest Boeffla-Config app 2.3.8 as well.

Enjoy

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Boerni83:
Hi,

thanks for your work. Is it possible to use the latest kernel with a older release. For example the snapshot release cm-13.0-20160816-SNAPSHOT-ZNH5YAO0FG-i9300.zip?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] stelariusinfinitek:
My Lord,

I wanted to download the latest release but the website is down, not responding to ping. Is there a problem, is the domain changed?

Edit : Sorry, I'm so stupid. It's not boeffla-kernel. de .Anyway, thank you Lord!

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Headache2013:
I searched everywhere but i never find the answer.

when i want to flash the boeffla kernel (the beta versions), twrp want verify the signature of the zip file but it failed. to avoid this i uncheck the verification of the file. ok the problem is solved

temporarily.

to be sure that's not a file problem I verified the files download on my computer and on my phone and it's ok.

So i'm wondring who's fault is and who can fix it permanently.

ps: I post quite the same message on twrp page

THX
[Galaxy S III Android Development] limjh16:
That's normal just uncheck the verification. Boeffla disabled zip signatures since 5.1 beta3 or 4
[Galaxy S III Android Development] orsonbear:
look on 18-Jul, there's an answer!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Headache2013:
Thank you, I read the info but i didn't cross my mind
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
I had to remove the signature as some recovery versions keep on having trouble with it.

Then the recovery internal unzip fails and the kernel cannot be installed.

Hence, I had not chance apart from removing it.

Just moved in with a new flatmate, who's S3 is slow and the SIM wasn't working (didn't test yet). Installed latest TWRP via Windows ODIN 3.06 (twrp-3.0.2-1-i9300), and then from recovery formatted /cache and /data to F2FS (the custom ROM I'll mention supports it. Ooops, maybe your kernel doesn't! xD seems okay so far!). Then ROM, A-Gapps (NO SU for this ROM. It's built in).

Running Temasek CM13 (quite a recent built made, 20/08/16 in fact!) [Link: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-temaseks-unofficial-cyanogenmod-13-t3286265]

Installed your Beta 6 Kernel. ROM got a bit smoother. Applied the "Power Extreme" default profile (press the three dots at the top right, profiles, "extreme power") and rebooted - the overclock really helps! All animations are buttery smooth so far - so much better than the custom ROM's kernel!

This phone barely got hot when installing the ROM and charging, so the overvolt doesn't worry me at all.

Excellent work, Boeffla!

hi lord can i ask question.i don't know about kernel but i like to know is there any possibility to update recent 3.0.101 linux version to newer patch version.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Well, 3.0.101 is the latest version of this linux kernel. It is end of life by kernel.org.

And I am not considering any update on higher major revisions. It is huge work for no good.

BTW, this kernel will anyway not get any active development anymore as all my S3 kernels are only maintained anymore, not in active development.

1- What is the best configuration of Low Memory Killer (LMK) for gaming?

2 What to do for apps in the foreground are not closed?

3- Have problem is updating the Boeffla Config V2 App and stay using the old version of the kernel or a waste of time? :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mahe.:
there are few lmk settings available in in thread.. search fadefx u will get some answers.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Not a good idea.

You have to use latest version always.

All boeffla-config apps are time-limited and will stop working one day if not updated.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mrkblo:
Sorry for the noob question but are all current versions of boeffla kernel (5.0 and 5.1beta) compatible with CM11, CM12.1 and CM13? I ask because I've been using boeffla's with CM13 but have been willing to give CM11 a try, however I can't live without the fast charging granted by this kernel (for some reason, my phone will only charge full speed if I enable "ignore unstable power on boefflas Miscellaneous options").

Thanks in advance.

EDIT

Sorry, just found out about the EOL versions on the official website. Will give them a try. Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Ok, you figured out yourself. The answer is no. You need the correct kernel for every rom.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LKHN:
We have new kernel commit - https://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/149428 But you did not update Boeffla something wrong with the commit ?:confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] limjh16:
Not yet ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ste22032:
By flashing latest CM13 Nightlies and then the actual Boeffla Kernel on top of them, you'll be up-to-date with all recent commits anyway.

That's in fact how AnyKernel method works, it pulls ramdisk from the kernel stock, so Lord Boeffla isn't "forced" anymore to release a new versione every time that something new is merged :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
No. But the commit is not important at all. So I had no hurry.

Only partially correct.

It is correct for all changes to the kernel ramdisk, here anykernel indeed cares about it.

But I is not correct for kernel code changes, otherwise we would never need to compile anymore.

And the mentioned commit is a kernel code change.
