Hi,

this is exactly the point. I do not know what they changed to go away from defacto-standard, but something they must have done to the ramdisk.

AK works because it uses the anykernel concept, which I do not like and do not use (it has other disadvantages).

So, I cannot fix it for you unfortunately. As I do not know what they changed o rom level.

This is the bad part of not having officially maintained CM. Everyone can do what one wants, and in reality this unfortunately happens this way.

We should slowly accept (I mean, you guys, I have already moved on for long time) the S3 is a dead device. It will get worse every day, believe me.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] RedBumper:
Thank you Andi for the very quick response! It was worth a try, asking doesn't cost anything, right :D. I fully get the idea behind ur thoughts and i am 111% supporting u!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:

Simply switch over to ArchiDroid.

It's running very good.

Nothing to complain about it.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] RedBumper:
*Sorry for the off-topic*

Thanks for the advice, but nope, AD is not an option for me :) Archi has my fully respect for his work but i was never comfortable with his CMs builds or AD. On my S3 Dokdo was by far the best 5.1.x ROM, much better then AD when it comes to performance & stability, even without Boeffla Kernel for the last 2 months.

And since this is still the dev thread about Boeffla Kernel, i - for my part - will not continue the discussion here, which ROM may be the greatest or whatever :cowboy:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] viktor92:
Ok, a little off-topic from me :D

I only use roms supported by boeffla, so I've never tried that S3 Dokdo, but I think you should try AD 3.1.4 with Uber 6 boeffla version, it works great :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] myshakugan:
Good evening, Lord Boeffla. I finally decided to put my flashing days on the s3 to bed (for now), flashed neatrom sammy version and your kernel on top of it as they produce one of the best combos for s3. I shall now be visiting your threads on the Oneplus One forum. ;)

Thanks for everything you've done and are doing for the s3, devs like you and Justarchi and many others have truly made s3 an awesome device (is still pretty awesome) and I'm really looking forward to enjoying your magic on the Oneplus One as well. Cheers!

Final kernels for CM12.1 and CM11 (NG and non-NG)

Hi all,

after almost 3 years, a long journey finally ends.

The first Boeffla-Kernel (for Samsung Jelly bean that time) appeared on 30.10.2012.

Now it is time to officially put the CM S3 kernels I provide into end-of-life mode with final updates.

This means: No more updates, no more maintenance. But I will keep this thread open for some more time to allow you to ask final questions. In a few months however, I will close it (along with the Samsung kernel thread and the ones for the n80xx which also receive final updates today).

Thanks to all of you for your loyalty, your honesty and your support in the past 3 years. It was (most of the time) a big pleasure.

If you want to continue using my kernels, go for a OnePlus one, a OnePlus Two or (worst case) a Galaxy S5. CU over there then.

Here we go now with the final updates:

CM12.1 -- Version 4.0-alpha16

22.10.2015

Support for USB keyboard app (Play store) - note you need to switch SELinux to permissive and (most of the time) use Hacker's keyboard (Play store)

Added support for DriveDroid app (untested)

Entropy levels (random number generator) decreased again to be only double of stock values

zzmoove governor: various stability and bugfix patches (credits to ZaneZam)

Update: Ramdisk updated to unofficial build 20 of 21.10.15

CM11 NG -- Version 2.10 stable - Final

CM11 -- Version 2.10 stable - Final

22.10.2015

Support for USB keyboard app (Play store) - note you need to switch SELinux to permissive and (most of the time) use Hacker's keyboard (Play store)

Added support for DriveDroid app (untested)

Entropy levels (random number generator) decreased again to be only double of stock values

zzmoove governor: various stability and bugfix patches (credits to ZaneZam)

Improved kernel build script

Enjoy

[Galaxy S III Android Development] matt1966:
Thanks for all the years with Boeffla Kernel on the S3.

Always great to use it.

What if we get CM 13?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
If we should **EVER** get CM13 on the i9300, and if it would **EVER** run good (not talking about experimental builds that cannot be used as a daily driver)... then I would think about a CM13 kernel.

But my personal opinion is: The journey is over. CM13 will either not come, or when it is there, too many things would be broken or not working well.

We will see.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] flither:
Thank you [MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION] for your work for us, i9300 users. It was (still is!) pleasure to use your kernels, as well as writing/asking questions in your threads.

I will really miss your responsiveness in answering any questions, not all devs are so open.

Anyway, if CM13 not gonna happen for our phone, I will still stay with my i9300 rocking Archi's CM and your kernel until the end of life of this phone.

The sad thing my mobo is not looking like going to die (it's basically good as never), but maybe one morning (hopefully ;))I will see the Black Screen of Death, then maybe we will meet in other thread one day :)

Thanks again!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Thanks my friend. Sooner or later, our way will cross again. I am sure.

But it can take time, because as you said: The S3 is a really solid piece of hardware. Hard to destroy it.

But that is fine, enjoy it for a long time still. At least you have good return of investment, the longer it works, the better :)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] matijaxda:
Thanks for the year long support of our i9300 Andi!!! It was a pleasure. Im sure we all valued your responsiveness and dedicationto this thread - even letting us know when you are not available due to your frequent travels :cool:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sanguinesaintly:
Sorry to see you go. You've worked wonders for the i9300 so maybe someone will be able to take on the mantle and continue your hard work. It's always been so refreshing to have a dev who actually reads and responds to the comments made by users - you'll be missed.

As a last aside - did anyone ever come up with a solution for the strange battery bug when using your kernel on BlissPop ? The ROM adherents put the blame on the kernel, and I'm sure you have your own final view on the subject.

In any case, all the best for your future endeavours, both personal and professional.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gokulbalram:
Time for a better, fixed AnyKernel I guess :/
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
They need to blame themselves.

They changed health daemon to be incompatible with cm. As easy as that.

Other rom devs reverted that nonsense already. Just Bliss is reluctant, which says a lot about them (sorry, had to do this statement).

In my Opo thread, I have done a more detailed analysis of the subject - proofing the kernel is compatible to cm, but bliss is not.

Thank you very much for your hard work all this time. Listening to music on the i9300 is on another level thanks to you.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] The_Voice_70:
Hello Andi,

Thanks for all your great support all over the years with the S3. From 10.1 up to now it was a funny time. Less sleep because of testing;) Great parties with amazing Boeffla Sound. And also a special thank to zanezam for his support on zzmove. A great combination for all time. It feels a little bit strange at the moment. I can`t realize that party should be over? Häääää ;))))

I hope there will be a CM13 sometimes (big smile) .... ;)))
[Galaxy S III Android Development] D00ky:
Big thanks Andi

Andi thank you for your dedication to our poor S3 which is still kicking also because of you. I'll probably stay with it till the bitter end as I still haven't found another phone worth of upgrade.

However I have one last request for you. JustArchi is promising one more version of his ArchiDroid marked 3.1.15 which sould be the final. Would you reconsider and bless us with the final version if the ramdisk changes?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ZaneZam:
blind chicken! :)

ehm guys i guess he will bless us at least with one additional last update as i just found a "little" mess related to zzmoove in new version(s) :)

just informed him about it but i guess he is already sleeping (thank god *gg*) this might not amuse him much as it's included in all recent

released S3 kernels. but at least its easy to fix by just exchanging one file so actually "just" a matter of rebuilding all images.

but to his defence i share the responsibility because i didn't saw

it after he ask me to review the commit. so i gave a "go!"

damn i had a blind chicken attack! :eek: but to my defence, i was busy with

pro work stuff at that moment and multitasking well... enough excuses *gg*

so before the lord awakes, i shoot out a sry andi! and sry guys! (if u already noticed the "mess" like no hotplugging and odd zzmoove profile values) :)

now i have to search for a place were he can't find me oooweeh.. :D

cheers..

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Hahaha. That's life.

Let's correct it and ship another 8 kernel a out.

You don't need to hide. Lol.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Well, what is the basics of that rom?

I usually never take ram disks from custom roms, only originals.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] myshakugan:
AD is always based on the latest cm commits, and seeing that build 20 is the latest cm 12.1 and the latest boeffla kernel is based on the latest cm commits, I don't think you have anything to worry about regarding ramdisk compatibilities.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gokulbalram:
Don't feel sorry, BlissPop is on of the worst ROMs in terms of credits and whatnot. They kang all the time, without proper credits and they were even caught doing so when one dev made a stupid and pointless commit and Blisspop followed by merging the mentioned commit

I don't mean to offend anybody, but Blisspop is a ROM I personally wouldn't use, but that's just my personal opinion.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] D00ky:
As [MENTION=5696741]myshakugan[/MENTION] said. It is based on his unofficial CM12.1 and build 20 should be the last one. So if the ramdisk in your latest kernel is from that build than just ignore my request. Once again thank you for your support (you've helped me quite a lot through PMs) and I really hope we will meet again.

Godspeed
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SteStanich:
sorry for OT Andy,

if you were to buy a new phone right now, what would you choose?

thank you!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Tiz92:
This years flagships are all not very very good.. Maybe a Motorola Moto X or if you want a lot of phone for not a lot money the zenfone 2 (but put CM on it, it is bloatet..).. Or a nexus..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SteStanich:
I agree with you, the matter is that all new flagships are too big for my taste. I already have a pc after all! :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] whatsgood:
Snapdragon 810 messed up this year's flagships. Hopefully snapdragon 820 won't mess up next year's as well.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
No clue. I am very happy, I do not need to decide right now.

I am fully happy with my OnePlus One.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] SteStanich:
well, this is a suggestion in someways! :)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Instead of reinventing the wheel again, I would propose you use one of the many free app lock solutionss around. They will then work with even more apps you want to secure.

Another round of final updates...

Hi all,

unfortunately an issue has been introduced in yesterdays final kernels.

So I decided to fix that and release now a (hopefully) really final set of kernels.

CM12.1 -- Version 4.0-alpha17 - Final

CM11 NG -- Version 2.11 stable - Final

CM11 -- Version 2.11 stable - Final

23.10.2015

Fixed zzmoove profiles not being correct

Have fun

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] 2phazt:
Thank you Andi - but silently I hope it's not the final one ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
My former boss always said:

Hope is not a strategy :)

But it is not really likely there will be anything coming up again.

Only exception: CM13 coming out, ideally officially maintained and running like hell.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] fonfox:
CM13 on I9300 can only run like hell with Boeffla M Kernel :)

But Andi thank's a lot for all your great work. Our S3 would be without your kernel already dead.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Andromeda 90:
That's really not what I wanted to do, I do not like to install these applications just for that. I have hidden Boeffla-Config V2 the launcher.

But thanks for your response, and thank you for the excellent work he does.:D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] matt1966:
App in EOL mode too?

I know no more new features for the S3 but what about expired date of the App?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
App is not eol, it is used for my active opo, op2 and s5 kernels as well.

And will continue to work on the eol kernels.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Sorry to disappoint you, but this is more than unlikely.

I will myself never go for a Samsung phone again.

Not unless they changed their approach with some things like flash counters, downgrade locks, knox etc.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] abol_fa:
A question.

Which OEM should i choose if i decide to move away from samsung?

I'm guessing htc and sony are doing not so bad.am i right?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Htc I would be careful. They are always close to be bankrupt.

Sony seems to be doing well, which is interesting because usually they are quite proprietary.

Nexus could be an option, I personally prefer oneplus.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] 2phazt:
I think the oneplus is the most bang for the buck but their invite system sucks. And the one hadn't covered the frequency of the only provider I get a signal where I live.

The Nexus' don't offer enough for their price - especially no sdcard slot is a nogo.

So I will use the S3 until a really sexy device is on the market or it breaks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Gokulbalram:
Go for the OnePlus One. At this point they've made the OPO invite free, so go grab it!

pointless-signature-lol-sorry
[Galaxy S III Android Development] flither:
Just one, probably last question - is Boeffla Config set to selinux permissive now by default? Cause it seems like :)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Can only second it. I love my OPO.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Moopow:
Hey andi... I am looking at the one plus one base on your recommendation... However since there is a one plus 2 out now I am wondering if your kernel would be able to work on the one plus two... Is this possible?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
No, this is not possible. Very different hardware in these devices.

But I provide also a first kernel already for the OP2. So there are kernels for both devices.

Does anyone know how to debug a crash during deep sleep? Because i have 1 profile that is making my S3 get stuck on boot loop, and the others dont... You could say, did you undervolted the cpu? Nope, neither the gpu. Anyone can help with that?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
The kernel logs messages to /proc/last_kmesg, the rom and apps log into Logcat.

Only if you ensure both loggers are turned to on in Boeffla-Config.

Happy analysing :)

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PiniponSelvagem:
Thank you, :D

Will look into it then...

EDIT: been testing and to me it seems something related with zzmove on alpha17, since changing governator to anyother tge phone no longer dies on deep sleep randomly... I reverted back to alpha14 (and cm12.1 beta18) wish is where it looks stable to me and no more stuck in deep sleep with zzmove.

[MENTION=220904]andi[/MENTION]: Do you recommend to update the rom to newest cm versions and still use your kernel?

Or should we stay on the rom version your last kernel version was compiled from?

Or would you maybe update your kernel (maybe a few) last times as long there are active changes in the cm12 repo?

You are talking CM12, or CM12.1 ??

I have not seen any new JustArchi build coming out so far.

Ah, ok - I was misleaded by the fact that the latest temasek version had the new android 5.1.1_r26 sources included.

Let's say that way: When JustArchi really comes around the corner with one more build, I would at least diff the ramdisk and decide if it is worth to update it in last kernel or not.

I released one more build only because of latest security patches, CM12.1 is now good alternative for people who are doomed with official unpatched JB 4.3 or CM11 and are seeking for something patched.

I doubt there are any ramdisk-related changes, but feel free to check if you wish.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
Thanks buddy.

I will check when I am back from my business trip from Florida/US.

I am already there for a week, and will be there another week. So, it will take some time before I can do it. However, I have already reports from the German forums, the kernel runs just fine.

So, all can jump on your latest rom release with the latest Boeffla-Kernel.

Any one having problems with undervolting? Because if i undervolt my S3, even just by -25mV, and if i restart it, he ll hang on Samsung Galaxy logo for ever ( and i dont want to end up with a ghosted screen, xD)... Cant figure out why, because it happens with every clock/voltagr that i put it on, but if its default ones he ll allways boot just fine... Other wise it ll only boot if i keep pressing the lock button so he hard restarts.

Shuting down and booting up works fine thou, but if during the night he restarts, i dont want to end with a burned screen
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
This post was not serious, or?

Look at faq in my homepage or search for undervolting in xda threads.

Then you will see, uv is a really bad game. Nothing more, nothing less.

And you are not the first one that cannot even undervolt 25mv.

Just leave it without uv, it anyways is not making difference.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rpdroky:
I tought so , but i gave it a try :) , thank you sir and i apologies if i put you in a aqward position :(

Best of luck :highfive:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PiniponSelvagem:
Ok, thx :D

I just think it was strange because the phone is completely stable even if i undervolt -100mV, it ll only do that if i restart at the power menu...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andip71:
But that is the point... Undervolting can lead to all sorts of not explainable side effects.

Even xours, as we could see..

Andi
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rpdroky:
try reducing max frequency to 1200 then try -100mv , i always get the strange sensation when i reduce the max frequency i can undervolt even more , give it a try :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PiniponSelvagem:
I dalready id that to every frequency from 200mhz to 1,4Ghz... Every frequency was stable for usage and deep sleep testing worked with no problems... This problem only comes when i reboot in the rom power menu, but shuting down and turning on goes fine. Btw, i could even undervolt the 200mhz to 600mV.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rpdroky:
well i uploaded my profile on the profile sharing thread http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63723920&postcount=1756 , give it a try :)

And like Andi said , undervolting can lead to all sorts of not explainable side effects , so staying at stock should be better for you , and go for zzmoove moderate , its way better then pegasusq my opinion :)

Cheers :highfive:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] PiniponSelvagem:
I ll give it a try then... But i allready have a profile capped to 600mhz and with zzmove battery extreme, and runs great... But really atm i think im gona quit undervolting, because even if i undervolt -1mv it goes stuck on galaxy logo if i restart, is it because he cant match the stock voltage table with the one i set?? Just wanted to know about that...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rpdroky:
This is intresting indeed because boeffla config loads the profile after boot , if you pick wrong voltages , the phone should crash after boot but not at samsung logo
