my lord [MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION].. I found something strange on alpha 2 NG on latest cm12 29/12 build..On Boeffla config when i overclock GPU to 350/440 with undervolt -75/-100..my screen glitches with ugly black and white dots and almost scares me to death.. i thought i lose my screen digitizer already (effect of reading too much thread)..

maybe either its because of HWC implemented on cm12 or other stuff.. just reporting..im too scared to reproduce it again..neglect it if it just a minor.. :D

BTW just for your info..i scored highest mark in antutu on cm12 rom with your kernel..and i noticed that antutu stops and unable to run the benchmark when i selected pegasusq as governor while benchmarking..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tandrcak90:
What version i can install with namelles rom 4.4.4?cm,or omni or what?sorry for poor english :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Well, overclocking GPU and undervolting at the same time can have all possible kind of effects. No wonder you have glitches etc.

I never recommend to overclock and even not to undervolt if there is not a specific reason.

Antutu running with pegasusq for me without issues. However, this seems to be very dependent on device. I know of some users where Antutu also stops before ending.

But hey... all is alpha, right? Rom is alpha, kernels are alpha... so give it some time over the next weeks and months to stabilize :)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
No clue about Nameless 4.4.4.

I would try latest Omni stable, but no guarantee.

My references are only vanilla CM11 / vanilla Omnirom.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] RoelD92:
don't want to give the wrong advice here, but i think you will need the 3.0 kernel depending on what version of nameless 4.4.4 you are installing. Final version of nameless 4.4.4 has working HWC as well, and i think it needs disabled selinux. At least in the archikernel thread it was advised to use the lollipop version with latest nameless.

On another note, nameless has more in common with CM than Omni. but at the area of exynos4 phones they are miles ahead of the rest :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Maybe you are right, yes. I have absolutely no clue, as said.

I was not supporting Nameless in the past due to them using rp4 mali versions etc. And I am not a supporter of creating specialised kernels for specific roms.

So, could even well be, none of my kernels support Nameless 4.4.4. Not unlikely even.

But nothing wrong giving all current kernels a test. Either it works, or not.

[MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION] may I ask a little question which is better for temasek cm12 the normal or the NG
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eatsleep:
Please chose what suits better for you.

And please mind using the search feature......

This has been discussed many times before
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nightwing90:
In my opinion I prefer NG over normal :cowboy:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
NG prederred.

I use only NG for long time already (cm11 etc).

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] alcaholjunkie:
The nameless 4.4.4 ROM has some hwc stuff from different Mali stuff to normal cm11 type roms in it so I think only certain kernels would work with it. Which I think android 4.4.4 boeffla kernels aren't compatible with iirc as the lord doesn't like to put too much into his kernels above stock stuff. ^_^

Have somebody tried HDMI with this kernel? Asking out of curiosity.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] laura almeida:
My Lord,

which ndk tool-chain is required to compile boeffla-CM12.0-NG-kernel ?

arm-linux-androideabi-4.9 doesn't seems to work.

Can you please link me to a preconfigured toolchain ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Yes, true. I do not like to make kernels for a niche only. That is a wast of the small time budget I have.

Hm, nothing special honestly. I am currently using

- zzmoove governor with zzmoove-moderate profile

- cfq scheduler

- No OC/UV of CPU/GPU

- touchboost freq reduced to 400

- Some tweaks in Boeffla-Sound and notification LED (increased blinking speed and set to fading)

It will not work. No CM based kernel ever had working HDMI as far as I know.

I am still compiling with 4.7 gcc toolchain.

I think that should be the link:

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/arm-eabi-4.7

If you want to compile with higher toolchains, please ask ZaneZam who usually recompiles my kernel with higher version Linaro/Sabermod toolchains here in xda.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
Thanks,

I was just curious as I saw someone to mention that it is possible, at least for audio.

Hello, after one week long testing, I can confirm that SGS3 GT9300 is running flawlessly without single app running in the background killed. Notifications from services like Hangouts, Inbox, Skype, SMS/Call - all works. Took me some time to fiddle and test. I'm using my device to play games like Ingress, Game of War or Asphalt, browsing with chrome a lot.

Was running since boeffla kernel was flashed (4 days ago), but then I left my battery to die ;-(

Smooth and bat. friendly. Chrome is freezing from time to time, But that's common.

Can you share the kernel profile here :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] NightSky256:
Zzmove has an annoying bug both stable and beta2: while listening to spotify connected via BT to my Ford Audio stereo, if the screen goes off, after about 30 seconds the audio starts glitching and hitching "like when I tried to play mp3s on a 486sx33" :)

Switching zzmove profiles nothing changes.

Switching to Pegasusq there are no more glitches.

On temasek v61

Sent from my DEC PDP-11/75
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
NightSky256, not quite right.

It is a combination of

- your player software

- zzmoove maximum cpu frequency limitation during screen off

For instance, I have no problems with zzmoove and yank battery profile at all when using my mp3 player app (music folder player).

You can try the following:

- increase the minimum CPU frequency from 100 to 200

- if you have the donation app, you can enter tunables mode and set parameter "freq_limit_sleep" to a higher value

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SaphirX:
Is this normal?

I am using zzmove and optimal and I have got a launcher redraw every time I go back to home screen. I am using nova launcher prime.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] NightSky256:
Thak you!

CPU min, freq it's already set to 200 (and i can't go under 200)

I think that spotify needs more cpu power than other players (it streams music from the internet). I'm feeling good with the zzmoove optimal profile, if i buy the donation app is there a way to directly edit "optimal" profile or import it to "tunable" profile ? i can't find such feature in the free version

Edit: The issue is present only if the audio is streamed via AD2P Bluetooth. Now with earbuds it doesn't glitch in any profile...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
No, this is not normal. You have memory shortage most probably.

Why.... I cannot tell.

I run slim (which uses Nova too) and have no issues.

Sorry, I meant 300 or 400, of course 200 is lowest :)

Yes, there is a way to directly edit the optimal profile in tunable mode of the donation app.

Way is:

- first you choose the optimal profile - the tunables are loaded for it

- then you choose tunable mode

- then you can enter the tunables, which are prepopulated with the last profile (in our case optimal)

- then you can change the tunables

But you can also use other tools like trickster mod first to verify.

2.0-beta2a (only CM10.2)

Hi,

as some maybe have noticed already (and some will still), CM team did some significant changes in the initramfs of CM10.2 Nightly of 22.10.2013.

This causes all Boeffla-Kernels (and potentially all other custom kernels in a first glance) to break.

Hence, I created a new beta just for CM10.2 for you, which incorporates the latest changes:

2.0-beta2a

Change log (vs. beta2)

Compatibility to changes in CM Nightly of 22.10.2013

Cheers

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this, I know it is not possible to support every Rom because of these changes, but it is much appreciated.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Should work, BioVolt.

Just to let you all know... we kernel devs are about to team up now (Yank, Googy, DerTeufel, psndna88, myself...) on a generic solution working for all roms.

We will give out the same statement to the rom devs very soon, and we will discontinue support for roms not moving to the generic solution at the same time (of course after a proper grace time). We hope, we can motivate the rom providers to follow this for the good of us all.

Let's see.

might be a silly question but please forgive me ... for those of us on fusion rom, can we flash beta2a as well ?? or we should just stick to beta2 ???
[Galaxy S III Android Development] temasek:
100% supporter.

Custom roms doing their own custom stuffs like that will limit the beauty of using custom roms in the first place. When I started hearing about such, I *sigh*. What a s*** decision.

On a serious note I believe it's not i9300 affected by such uncalled decision. Probably all devices supported by those custom roms are. But then again, i9300 kernel devs United is a good thing.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] ZaneZam:
well it's not a bug it's a feature: battery-saving :) and that as much as possible at suspend when we usually do not use our phones, but for some application it might be too much so as lord boeffla rightly stated try to higher freq_limit_sleep and in addition try to set up_threshold_sleep to 85 or lower (i think it's already set to 85 on yank battery profiles) and/or set fast_scaling_sleep for example to 2. i think the latter one fixed bluetooth issues for [MENTION=2033478]Yank555[/MENTION] some time ago but he will surely dive in soon and correct me if i'm wrong. :)

I am currently using your kernel (not the NG one) on latest CM11 by Markox89 :good:

Running very smooth but I have the problem, that microphone quality is not as good as of my Galaxy SII which is currently in repair.

Sensitivity was much to high, sound was distorted so I had to reduce the gain to 20 but still the sound is very muffled. With my S2 you nearly get clear audio recording in noisy conditions (eg. discotheque, concerts and so on).

Ok, the next thing is, that I constantly lose connection to camera after opening it and shot 2 or 3 pics or during recording a video :confused:

When camera crashes I cannot reopen it, i get a message "Camera error - no connection to camera possible"

I have to reboot and then camera works but crashes again.. I don't know if this is ROM or kernel related and if it would be better to use the NG kernel, what do you think?

One feature request for kernel app.. One more action. Just simple download kernel and palce it under download folder. Without flashing. Thanks!

Supreme kernel and what a wonderful control app!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Interesting request. But certainly doable.

Would be to use load&flash function to download the kernel, but then to have another button to either flash or store only, an option for you?

That could be quite simple fit into the app's workflow.

The kernel would then end up in the /boeffla-kernel-data folder without being flashed.

Just an idea...

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
Are there any plans to introduce f2fs support to the kernel? I know that Lord Boeffla stated that he does not like to introduce non-standard features to the kernel, but this may help the performance a lot, especially on old devices like GT-9300 is. Asking out of curiosity, that's all.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
For the audio part... it should not be muffled. At least this is not normal.

Have you checked if you mic hole is free? Many times people had dirt in the hole which lead to this effect (no joking, just truth). After they cleaned it, all was fine again.

Just an idea...

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Well, you gave the answer already yourself :)

No.

Quoting the OP:

This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:

dual boot (I do not need it)

color "calibration" (I do not like it, but I like the crispy stock colours)

real hard overclocking higher than 1600 MHz as this is outside of Exynos specs

f2fs - it is known to cause various issues and compatibility problems

anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version

So do not even ask for it. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fcaronte:
is possible to add the backup addon.d script to maintain the kernel after cyano update?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Certainly technically possible.

But as I have written, the CM11/Omnirom kernels will not receive functionality updates anymore.

For CM12 I need to think if I want that :)

(when I see in Arters thread how many people ask how to deinstall the kernel and what ****load of support work they generate, I am not sure if I really want this...)

What keyboard are you using ??

ps.: those LMK values are very weird...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] katolink:
I agree with you, I personally would not like to have this addon.d script installed. But you might consider to implement an option to preserve kernel after reflash as part of the process of installing the kernel. I don't even know whether this would be possible from a technical perspective, but just my few cents [emoji4]
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Virnik0:
That was Anysoft Keyboard initially (it still is), but I did few changes to it, and re-signed it with dev keys, in order to avoid auto-updates from play store.

Those LMK values, that's what I have found after test/failure cycles as most stable.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] XDAMaxe:
I'd highly appreciate this feature :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Ok, next time I work on the app, will put that in.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fcaronte:
What do you think about adding an option in boeffla app that's say for example "enable persist mode" and when you enable it put the script in the addon.d folder to keep kernel after cyano update.... Is a possible idea?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] drgreenth:
Sounds great that way.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Depending of the rom. Which one do you use? I 've never had any issue so i don't understand what's the fuss about lmk. On Lollipop roms,i have around 400mb free ram. More than enough. On Tw roms around 250 -350. Only thing i do,exept greenify is limit to 4 processes in dev option( on tw roms. Max freq is on 1200 on Tw and 1000 on Aosp. I even use one step below default gpu freq. Never had problems. For gaming i guess you maybe need some overclocking but that's it.

Andi,please don't change default Lmk. Tried some settings this morning(72,80,84,88,95,112) and got more than 100 free ram less.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] kadopt:
Free ram is wasted ram, if you use high lmk values the system will kill apps earlier than expected reducing multitasking. KK values were good enough. Eventually Andi will update the ramdisk like it was done with stock cm.
