beta25 with todays nightly runs fast and stable. ;) You are really 2 fast and 2 furious for me sometimes. ;) Thanks for your great work, Andi. And: Happy Easter to you and your family ;)

Hello, why does the first post say "All kernels are now officially end-of-life" but there are new versions pushed often? Anything I'm missing?

Greetings.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
You have the choice, because:

1) It says P-EOL (partially EOL) in the thread subject

2) I am just a nice guy

3) something else

No, the truth is - I am not developing anything new anymore. And all kernels are really end of life with only the exception of the CM13 kernel where I provide maintenance updates to keep it alive.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] whoadood:
Ah sorry, I didn't get the "P-EOL". It's in the title only and not explained in the post. In any case thanks for your work!

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Behemoth1702:
Hey andi,

I opened the Config app a few days ago and on the overview page I noticed zRam was enabled. I could not remember turning it on so I disabled it. But then I started wondering whether maybe that was enabled by default?

Is there a way to "reset" all kernel settings do default? I see the "reset" button next to settings but there is not a reset button for every setting. I cleared data of the app, restarted into recovery, reinstalled boeffla kernel (beta 25) and the zRam was disabled. So is this the default setting?

Anyway, to sum it up:

-how to completely reset all kernel settings?

Thank you very much for your hard work mate. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] S3Killer:
Thanks

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Zram in a clean installation is enabled with 400mb, yes.

You have many ways to reset the configuration:

1) reset your profile in profile maintenance screen

2) flash reset zip in recovery

3) reset app in app settings menu (recommended) and reboot

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Behemoth1702:
Thank you very much! Resetting the app from app settings is the smoothest thing. Awesome.

I wish you a good trip!

Andi [MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION] , I know about reasonable effort only na P-EOL flag however if there is any chance - my brother is suffering from reboots during calls.

Here is LAST_KMSG - http://pastebin.com/NgwH6wHg.

What do you think, is it Kernel issue or ROM issue ? He is using latest nightly CM13_1 with your Kernel - no other modifications.

[MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION] I've been trying stock cm13 and your kernel back and forth.

I've noticed 3 things, not comparing. Just wanna let you know issues that i faced.

1. In Stock kernel apps open and load pretty fast.

For eg Facebook which is pretty heavy.

It took literally 2-3 sec to open and load.

But on boeffla it takes like about 8-10 sec and sometimes maybe more

And 2nd thing i noticed stock lmk and boeffla lmk are different.

3rd i was trying to download driver pack solution from torrent

App called flud but faced too many random reboot. When i tried same thing with stock. No issues.

P.S: DON'T KILL ME. ?

I've attached stock lmk values.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gjurosi:
strange ... on beta23 & beta 25 kernel ver. ,sometimes when boot error message ... unfortunately,application SETTINGS stopped working... wiped and clean again and install kernel but then same message when I enter settings,security option ... [MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION] ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
You can configure LMK values as you like.

As for the rest, I cannot reproduce.

But anyways, no changes anymore to my kernel.

So if you are more happy with stock kernel, use it.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Will take a look after my business trip, earliest next week.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Can only say - never had that ever on official cm13...

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DarkPulsar:
Sorry for going off topic ,but it is possible to flash boeffla kernel in nameless 3 ROM (android 6.0.1)? It is very important for me as I use this kernel since the beginning on all cm versions. I want to switch to nameless as for now it has fixed magor issues as hwc ,screen flickering ,Netflix ... Thanks a lot for the excellent work Lord :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Trafalgar Square:
No, it's not possible. It will bootloop

Hi [MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION].

I am blisspop v3.2 cm12.1 based ROM.

This ROM was released on 12 may 2015.

I want to flash Boeffla kernal

I tried latest cm12.1 Boeffla but it goes bootloops.

Can u suggest me the version which will work on my ROM..

Thanks in advance..

SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Your English is fine. However I never use these roms so I really have no good advice.

Read the change log backwards and check which cm12.1 kernel was out during that time frame.

I could make it available for you on demand next week.

But the question is still - why do you use such an old rom?

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] matt1966:
If I remember correctly then it should be test4 alpha 3 or 4.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shalushahil:
Because all the lollipop ROMs final versions were too laggy and having many bugs...so I decided to go for old also it has many features...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] matt1966:
Version 4.0-alpha4

18.05.2015

NOTE: This kernel only works on roms that have latest CM commits as of 14.05.15 included.

For all "older" roms, you still need to use alpha3 !!!

Update: Ramdisk updated to unofficial weekly 6 of 16.05.15

Version 4.0-alpha3

27.04.2015

Update: Ramdisk updated to unofficial weekly 4 of 26.04.15
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Ok. I can dig that out beginning of next week when I am back at home.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Behemoth1702:
God daym you're dedicated. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shalushahil:
Thankyou very much..I will wait for that..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lukaaa477:
can u make zram that use sdcard space so we can have it much more that 800mb?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Do you think the eol tag is just a joke? [emoji2]

You can make it yourself by using an app that creates a swap device, kernel supports it.

Would I recommend it? Clearly no, unless you want to damage your device long term. Search the thread, I explained many times why this is a bad idea. (also this is the reason I would never implement that myself)

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lukaaa477:
What makes you think that way?

and can u please name the app? is that app use internal or ext sd card?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Trafalgar Square:
?

This kernel is EOL and Lord will only pick changes by CyanogenMod. He will not add new features.

Point.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Simple. You will wear out your memory, and then your phone is a brick.

External sd memory is too slow.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Hi all,

here comes the promised maintenance update of the CM13 kernel.

Dude, I've been on RR rom based on cm13 for some time, when I tried the setup as in your siggy. Damn. Its whole lotta faster than the marshmallow. Thanks man. Will continue to use this for a long time.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mahe.:
Andi,

we are getting nightly builds(cm 13) every day and your updating kernel every week or when needed. So if i want your kernel always inline with the ROM how often i need to update the ROM? It is like grab the ROM once your maintenance update out.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] 2phazt:
As long as there are no kernel related commits no kernel update is necessary so you can update the rom and use the latest kernel.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Usually there is no problem using the kernel for a week.

If something gets broken severely, I will do also another update during the week (like I always did in the past).

But honestly, development is not going on that fast on S3, so it should not be required usually.

Andi

Any one able to get viper driver status as normal with neon status enabled? i am using CM inbuilt root and cm13 April 4 build. I also read we need supersu for viper to run properly.. can anyone confirm..

[Galaxy S III Android Development] myhrazayn:
For Viper driver installation, SELinux must be permissive.

How to change selinux to permissive? In the development option, setting to permissive causes setting stopped

You can change it with boeffla config app

Yeah, but do it in settings to be sticky across reboots !

Dear Lord, the last two updates of the config app are not loading properly for me on cm11. The interface is sometimes blank, just the tab titles showing.

Happened to me once too.. Not really a problem but.. It exists[emoji14]
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
And what happens when you scroll to next pages or press the reload button?

Have you tried that?

Thanks

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cokesucker:
It's random, yes scrolling eventually makes them show up. Exiting the app and starting again also works sometimes, but not all the time.

Not a big thing, just thought I'd raise a flag.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Ok, I expected this to come up.

Good you let me know, I never had that once. But it makes me thinking about changing some internal approach to better handle it.

Thanks for the report, only that way I can improve things.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
[MENTION=6061054]cokesucker[/MENTION]:

I wonder if you can reproduce the issue easily?

Because I have a new app test version which I would give you for verification if you would like to test it.

Pls let me know.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cokesucker:
It would be my pleasure Lord.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
[MENTION=6061054]cokesucker[/MENTION]: check your pm please.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Thanks! It is a very special timing issue.

That is why it occurs for some, not for others (like me).

Also has to do with what apps are installed, mods and especially themes.

Cheers

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cokesucker:
Not using any theme never did. But i am using a mod, don't want to say the name or you will kill me. It's starts with X :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Can very well imagine what you use :silly:

Likely this piece of software (to be precise a module of it) causes slow downs in reading the system configuration. This led to your problem. But with the new version of the software, this is gone as you confirmed.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cokesucker:
Yes i suspect it is the GB module which does in a way contain themes. Anyway, thank you Lord for the quick response all is good now.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Logan:
Same in cm13 but i can confirmed not boeffla config app problem some apps don't work like this issue like es file explorer and some of social media apps i guess this issue related to cm in built root or xposed/RAM

Yes, nothing I can do about it.

You are obviously not using pegasusq governor bot another one.

The latest "input boost" addition to CM13 (around a month ago) was implemented in a way, it tries to write to pegasusq tunables to do the boost.

If you have no pegasusq running, it tries to write to a non-existing path.

You have three options:

- use pegasusq

- ignore the log spam

- convince the CM maintainer to make this switchable

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Logan:
Hi Andi

I am using your latest kernel port with default profile and LMK(tested older values) same as cm kernel is but i always have lag in switching to recent menu in last week nightlies but in cm kernel i don't have that lag do you have any idea what causes this?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
No. And I have to say, I do not have lag here.

However, I am not using my S3 anymore, so I might be the worst to ask.

I just did it now, and I had no lag.

So in worst case you need to use stock kernel, as I am not actively developing on the S3 anymore. Sorry.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Durio:
Guys i have problem at cm 12.1 everytime I change the battery mode either powersave,balanced, or performance the governor will revert back to pegasusq/standard. Any workaround for this? Cause I want to try the hyped zzmove/relax. Cheers!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
This is normal. The rom changes the governor when changing the battery modes.

Only solution is to not use it.

Andi

Which battery mode would you prefer then? Cheers lord andi

Only the default one.

Andi,

i just read making SE-Linux to permissive state will increase the kernel RAM usage? i tired permissive and strict to check that but i couldn't find any difference. with permissive as well as strict policy free RAM is approx 400(this only after startup so more RAM :)). So permissive or strict have any impact on overall RAM usage?

dicussion on RAM usage and Se-linux below,

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66312377&postcount=1838

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66314367&postcount=1839
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
It would surprise me if there is a difference.

It is more like two modes:

- strict does checks and if not allowed, it blocks it.

- permissive does the same checks, but allows it and logs it.

So, if there is a difference in ram usage, then only when permissive mode allows other processes or components to load, which strict would not allow. But this is then a side effect and not coming down to selinux itself.

Other than that, the selinux implementation itself would not change in terms of ram consumption.

This is my opinion with my best knowledge.

[MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION]

I just booted my Galaxy S3 up after a long time, but I have some problems:

I downloaded the latest nightly.

Then I did a wipe - flashed cm13 - gapps - kernel

But when I reboot the Galaxy S3 logo shows up and after that the screen goes black and after a while it reboots and again and again (bootloop)

Should I wait if something happens or what else?

btw would it be possible to make a ng kernel for cm13? I mean with the ng kernels the phone runs smoother than with the smdk4412 sources
[Galaxy S III Android Development] lukaaa477:
here also bootloop with aicp latest
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Hawaiihemd:
That is of no concern. This kernel is intended for pure cm only. If it works for other ROMs fine, if not... that's fine too.

Have you tried to boot once with stock kernel and only after that flash boeffla? IIRR that has been suggested.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Behemoth1702:
Dear Andi,

Your awesome kernel uses other LMK settings than the default stock CM kernel. While the stock kernel goes from something like 16MB-120MB, your kernel goes from around 16 to 192, killing empty apps at 192 MB.

Why did you choose to raise these values? :) I'm just curious.

Also - I understand roughly how zRAM works. Boeffla kernel reports that my total memory is ~800MB. If I enable zRAM with 1 device, 400MB size, does this mean I'm ending up with 1200MB of RAM of which 400MB are "virtual"? Or does it mean that from my original 800MB a half is taken, turned into ZRAM which (because it compresses it's content) can overall fit more than 400MB? So I have 400 MB "normal" RAM and 400MB zRAM.

Thank you a lot in advance! :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fonfox:
You can read about ZRam in config APP tapp Help

And then Tab:*Miscellaneous

Yes LMK is different Stock

42,52,63,73,94,120

and in Boeffla

16,64,96,128,176,192

You can try booth and look what is working best for you .

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Behemoth1702:
Thank you for your response but I know how zRAM works, just want to clear out this detail. Also I wonder what's the reason behind Andi's different LMK values. I am not saying anything is better or worse, just wondering why. :) Thats it.
