Kitkat or Lollipop? Maybe when i buy Z2 we will make a challenge :D and we're not gonna judge the phone from first cycles though :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III General] metalgearhathaway:
Kitkat, third battery cycle from 100%.

I'm not really interested in these early lollipop builds, i think waiting for 5.1 builds is wise, Kitkat is really well optimised and lollipop still feels like beta on every device i have tried. I have a friend with g3 and another with nexus 5 both on lollipop and i hear similar stories of issues on both :eek::rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III General] aliw32619:
I've seen benchmarks between Z2 and G3 and Z2 is winning most of them because of camera , bigger battery , 3GB RAM ,and IP58 certification + it's water and dust resistant ;)
[Galaxy S III General] metalgearhathaway:
I was tempted by Sony, it was going to be either the z3 or the g3, but i was put off by the talk of software bugs on the sony's, mentioned on techradar, however if I owned a PS4 that would have swung me for sure!

Hello again Galaxy S3 users, if there is anyone who has the donation version of the Boeffla configuration app and wants to know my approaches and what I configured in my profiles to make A2DP function more smoothly, I would suggest you ask me about it before I soon forget :)
[Galaxy S III General] ayoubij:
What is the profile you suggest to use with QS rom 4.4.2
[Galaxy S III General] metalgearhathaway:
Well, just before I ended my i9300 career, I felt this one was working best: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58962534&postcount=1553

I was finding that zram on one device seemed to work better with it. But I was inconclusive and then sold the device, if you can try and let me know I would be interested to know how you get on with it. If you think it is not perfect, I would be interested to know how it performs if you change the zRam back to 4 devices :)
[Galaxy S III General] ayoubij:
Thanks ill test and give feedback. Ill also test with 2 devices.

Btw in your post its written fpu [MENTION=1601421]600[/MENTION]mhz but when i load the profile gpu settings are default... am i doing something wrong or gpu is missing? Because everything else supposedly changed
[Galaxy S III General] metalgearhathaway:
ah, I did reset it to stock, sorry, if you want 600mhz then raise the final GPU value accordingly, there is no need to increase the voltage by the way:)
[Galaxy S III General] aliw32619:
Don't tell me that sony will release all their phones with software bugs :D , and still Z2 is better than Z3 like we used to compare our S3 with S4 ;)

frandom crossbreeder

I have been using the lord boeffla tweaks for over a week now, with frandom tweaks enabled which has not caused any issues. I I am really pleased with the results.

(I hope this is the right place to ask this, if not sorry)I didn't know what frandom did before, so I Googled it and came across cross breeder, which has a few more settings in than just the fandom entropy generator. I was wondering if this would work with the Boeffla kernel or cause issues. Also do other people have this installed?
[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
You can use crossbreeder still of course. Switch Frandom off in Boeffla config first, then you can install and use crossbreeder if you want.

Do you recommend Frandom tweaks?
[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
Recommend would be too much. Currently I have Frandom switched on, checking for a few days now whether I see a difference or not.

Can I assumed that you did not see any difference with frandom tweaks hence why it was removed from the miscellaneous section?
[Galaxy S III General] Clark789:
Hi Andi,

did you change your profile due to your new kernel and the new zzmove and at last due to the XXUGNA5-firmware?

Regards

Clark
[Galaxy S III General] szunyi77:
Which is the Best Energy Saving config? Thank you

Sorry for my bad english..
[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
No, wrong. They are not removed. I just made them independent and more robust.

So, they are no system tweak anymore but can be reached as "start-up action" in the settings of Boeffla Config.

By this way, you can combine them with other system tweaks - which is much more flexible.

No, I am still running my normal profile, Clark. No changes for me.

Andi
[Galaxy S III General] Moopow:
Ok I understand... Is it OK to enable frandom entropy generator in the kernel start up section in settings then choose boeffla tweak? .... See picture attached
[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
Yes, you can combine that.

Let us know how it works for you.

[Galaxy S III General] heusen:
I think 50/50 i still get some lags with these settings.. im new to boeffla. My config was just based from the info that i read from the thread
[Galaxy S III General] tommi.a:
Hmh, some lags. Your settings don't seem so bad regarding lags.

Why do you use ZRAM? Many apps in memory?

If not, try switching off.

If yes, oc 1600 + little ov.

But maybe you should explain your usage scenario in more detail.

Anyway I'm not sure I can help.
[Galaxy S III General] Aceracer27:
Edit: Reread the OP. My bad. Please ignore. ?

Thanks for the profiles, just one issue I have, I cannot seem to find instructions on how to apply them. I've tried to flash the zip in latest TWRP. And thought I can't see an option in the Boeffla configuration app. I'm doing something wrong obviously. Any pointers would be appreciated.

FYI, battery had improved with more cycles, I now get up to 8 hours screen time, if I don't do lots of downloads or use GPS. If I do 3gb music download and use GPS navigation for an hour, then screen drops to 6 hours. Awesome stuff, certainly won't touch lollipop until 5.1 :)

I'm running QS 4.4.2 port with Boefla Kernel. But after reboot my profile is not properly applied. I have to switch to default, or some other, and then back to mine. Then everything is properly set. Any solution for this issue?

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
In kernel log file you can see why your settings do not get loaded.

99% a stalling init.d script blocks correct startup.

You can also empty your init.d folder in Boeffla Config (it creates a backup too)

Andi
[Galaxy S III General] danielo:
Thanks, clean init.d doesn't helped. I try to find issue in Kernel log.

[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
Send me a debug info file from Boeffla-Config then. I can look into it in the next days.

Andi
[Galaxy S III General] danielo:
Thank you for your efforts, here are the logs I gather after last reboot.
[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
I see your configuration is loaded successfully.

What settings do not stick for you?
[Galaxy S III General] danielo:
Governor and scheduler doesn't match my configuration. Not sure why. But after switching profiles manually it works and the settings are properly set. BTW I'm using MGH's Ondemand profile with default GPU settings, and some minor changes on LED and miscellaneous tab.

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
Ok. I thought that.

2 recommendations.

1. Put a Kernel Startup delay time into Boeffla-Config. Try 10, 20, 30 seconds...

2. Make sure you have no other apps reconfiguring that during every start. Also that means in cm settings under performance, make sure you uncheck the options to load gov and scheduler during boot.

Andi
[Galaxy S III General] danielo:
Thanks for the tips, I will try a delay first because I'm not sure that I have any other app which is changing that.

Delay has to be added by direct profile file editing? I didn't found such option in configuration app. Which parameter I have to change/add into the profile for the Kernel Startup delay?

Thanks.

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
It is in the app settings, kernel start up options.

Not in the profile.

But check the performance tab as well in cm settings, this is important!

Andi
[Galaxy S III General] danielo:
Thanks for the tips, seems like 30 seconds resolved the problem. In QS port there is no performance tab, QS port is stock Samsung Galaxy Note rom ported to S3.

Ok. Good the delay was able to fix it [emoji106]

Just wanted to know, is there a certain amount of time I should "test" a profile for? A day, one full battery cycle... Cheers.

Even I removed some of the apps it is still full. I have only 15 mb ffree ram and phone becomes so laggy even I sum the amount of ram used by the apps it makes maximum 600 MB but how it says used 815 MB?

[Galaxy S III General] labello29:
I just asked the best settings kernel boeffla noo s3 old and ugly better custom rom
[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
Normal. Android manages the ram in a way it tries to keep all apps cached even if not active. By doing that, apps that are reused can start faster.

If memory needs to be freed up, Android does it automatically (LMK).

So, all normal here.

The good old saying "in Android only used ram is good ram" is true, despite of many disupting that :)

thanks Mr. boeffla my interest and to have a profile that can give me more Reactivity fluid can not know what way to put and what parameters touch. tell me more about it thanks

did you read the part where i said "For all first timers, please try out Archi's and Lord Boeffla's and metalgearhathaway's configs first. I've been saying that for quite some time now. You can also use those profiles as basis for your own, which you can in turn share with everyone else."?

and i was too scared to flash anything on my g2 because it might damage my screen..you can read up in this thread to know why..there have been reports that it even happens on unrooted stock lg g2 phones while updating their official firmware over the air..even the devs over on the G2 forum have had it happen to them..so yeah, back to the good old s3

on a side note, the at least the G2 is running Cloudy G3 rom, so yeah..it's still all good

[MENTION=2069027]metalgearhathaway[/MENTION] is there a way that I could use your mgh_Intelliactive_v4 setting on my AGNi Kernel, it worked so good on my S3 and I want to use it with this kernel.
[Galaxy S III General] metalgearhathaway:
Sadly not, you would need the agni dev to write something into his/her kernel configurator.

What you can do is look at the profile and note down the various settings configured in the governor tweaks and then manually apply them however :)
[Galaxy S III General] NickName98:
Best balanced cm12 Governor based on your experience? :)
[Galaxy S III General] boyheadkick:

[Galaxy S III General] ivano949:
Hi guys, let me share with you my profiles I use on CM12 (temasek unofficial).

This profile are maiden with the intent of reduce black screen time on receiving a call by scaling faster to max CPU freq.

It's a work in progress, for now I think I reduced it of about 50%.

Basically I used Zzmoove insane governor and then tuned various setting with tunable governor...

This one is the base http://www.mediafire.com/download/c...insane_tunable_no_personal_settings.bcprofile in which you find No OC and UV and no personal settings in audio tab or other...

This instead http://www.mediafire.com/download/5hp9idtvss5i4d5/Zzmoove_insane_tunable_personal.bcprofile is what I use every day with CPU OC to 1704 and UV -100 (but of course I know not every S3 can run this stabily...) and my preferred settings for audio and whatever is possible to set whit Lord Boeffla loved Kernel [emoji6]

Remember is the first time I play with tunable governor so every suggestion to improve this profile is well accepted. Hope this may be good for you [emoji3] [emoji3] [emoji106]
[Galaxy S III General] metalgearhathaway:
don't forget that quite a lot of models can't reach 1.7ghz, 1.6 is safer for most.

My tests with my own collection of profiles showed me that GPU under clock saved battery, but CPU under clock never did and caused much instability.

Have fun experimenting, I miss playing around with my old s3 :)
[Galaxy S III General] boyheadkick:
Been quite some time since someone shared a profile :D i'll add this to the OP later..thanks :good:

[Galaxy S III General] ebrahem khedr:
Hey guys , what is the best config to balance and save battery life on android 5.1 ?!

Thanks on advance :D
[Galaxy S III General] boyheadkick:
intelliactive or zzmoove performance governor

deadline scheduler

1.7 OC for a little oomph on performance, no UV

512mb read ahead

stock LMK

touch boost 1200MHz

zRam 300 on 1 device

swappiness 90

*note ~brightness around 30-45%

oh wait, i just gave out my config :D
[Galaxy S III General] ebrahem khedr:
I'm looking for saving battery life not burn it lol ?
[Galaxy S III General] boyheadkick:
you want battery life, turn on airplane mode lol or better yet, buy a new battery, i'm actually thinking of buying one..my 2 year old battery is starting to die on me
[Galaxy S III General] ayoubij:
I have similar setting but zram on 4 devices. May i ask why you have it one device?

Also i have touchboost on 800 only, doesnt 1200 mean it will always burn battery fast. 800 is enough
[Galaxy S III General] boyheadkick:
yes, my touchboost is a little up there..i might adjust that in the next battery cycle..

as for my zram, i got it on one device to limit latency on the cores..having zram on all devices means all cores are working to provide you with zram, or something to that effect, from what i remember from previous discussions in this thread..and besides, from what i recall, 300mb on one device is similar to stock samsung kernel settings..i think it was [MENTION=2069027]metalgearhathaway[/MENTION] who mentioned that
[Galaxy S III General] ayoubij:
I will test with one device but i remember [MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION] once said it does not turn on the cores itself it waits for them to be turned on? So maybe 2 devices should me the optimal? Btw i dont think stock kernel samsung has any zram enabled at all
[Galaxy S III General] boyheadkick:
haha..my memory is quite vague regarding zram on all devices, i'll need to backread on the thread to remember..

but in my experience though, i get just some slight lag when on 4 devices compared to just 1..so yeah, there's that :o
[Galaxy S III General] andip71:
Latest Samsung stock kernels had indeed 300 mb zram as default.

And whether to use 1, 2 or 4 zram devices is based on what runs better for you. You can only test to find that out.

Andi
[Galaxy S III General] ZeeX:
I want to use the same configurations on CM11 Nightly will there be any conflicts whatsoever?

yes you can, no worries about conflicts or anything..and yes you can also turn off zram..but it's best you reset lmk values since my values are -10/+10
[Galaxy S III General] gerardo87:
Can anyone suggest a good profile for battery saving on latest blekota (kk 4.4.4)? Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S III General] boyheadkick:
i'd say metalgearhathaway's cm12 intelliactive, the one with no OC..that's more geared toward battery savings than his ondemand profile..

and yes, it's in cm12 list but it's compatible with sammy roms as well
[Galaxy S III General] francou8:
Hello, I want a configuration of the highest possible performance regardless of battery life. And that does not suffer lags the phone and that bothers me a lot! thank you!

ROM: CM12 5.0.2 temasek

Boeffla
[Galaxy S III General] boyheadkick:
go with metalgearhathaway's ondemand, the one listed in the 4.4.2 sammy port

or if you want to just apply it on your own profile, go with pegasusqplus governor with 1.6 or 1.7MHz OC, up the GPU to 640MHz max with +50 overvolt, touch boost to 1.2MHz..
[Galaxy S III General] whatsgood:
It's not very clear at the moment, but a few sources are saying the latest lollipop update 5.1.1 supposedly fixed the memory leak. Don't know if it's too early to tell but, if it is fixed, does anyone have a good zram setting to start with in regards to this possible fix. Currently I'm using metalgearhathaway's CM12 intellective v3, which has zram set to 800 with 4 devices and 90 swapiness. I think that setting was due to the memory leak and now it doesn't need to be that high
[Galaxy S III General] ayoubij:
300mb 1 device and default swapinness (off)
