Boeffla-Config wont work on archikernel, about the camera, i was on paranoid android rc2, and camera worked good with archikernel ( [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION], i think this problem is rom related, there must be a commit, file that interfers with the kernel ), and this is a DEVELOPMENT THREAD. i dont know why people always post things like, "not work, plz fix next version, in that kernel works and here no", i am pretty sure dev ignores that, and gets dissapointed and can even cancel everything, btw no offence if i quoted you,this is sad cause i want to follow the development and what archi says, he is a good guy greg. lol
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ghoster76:
Yeah, I know it, he's Archi Lord. And I was pretty satisfied with awesome Archi ROM, it's being my best choice for my i9300 until this time :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Hbohd:
Picking right commits from Boeffla's github was an easy merge (I got your sources and cherrypicked mdnie, touchboost, touch2wake and gpu settings).

However, I've tried to compile for i9305 and then I noticed that in that kernel tree there are missing m3 parts (so for mine i9305) :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] pulley06:
Running L-Droid v2.1.7

After flashing the kernel, whenever I try to open camera the phone reboots.

I flashed stock kernel first and then moved to flash this kernel. Anyone else faced this?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Of course, because my sources are for i9300 and not i9305. This is not smdk4x12 crap, this is I9300 Update13 source drop. Even going further, if you would compile this kernel for i9305 and for any reason it would succeed, you would brick your phone after flashing it.

Archiii You're the hero :good: :highfive: :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Not before I solve the interlacing video recording crap.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] beeeto:
Archi, as you know, I love your work. I think there's another problem to add the video rendering. I was watching the world cup via stream and the video used to stop while the audio kept going. It happen everytime I tried to watch my game, thought it was a flaw on the streaming app. The issue should be reproduced easy I think. Anyway, did a quick flash of latest boeffla and the streaming started to work fine.

Like I said before, I love all your work, but you know, Football is Football hahaha :D. I'll be trying it again very soon, keep your mastercraft coming!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Sad news: I couldn't fix interlacing video recording even after reverting everything and sticking with Sammy Update13 only. Probably it requires some upstream kernel fix (Linux 3.0.64?) so I'll check that later. Definitely it's connected with the kernel base.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Hbohd:
Bricking isn't possible in my opinion :p I made proper changes in defconfig (I am porting Boeffla kernel this way), so nothing bad could happen..

However, basing on your main idea - I will download pure Sammy sources for i9305 and then experiment with making it aosp-usable :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] vldesco:
I had GPS issue with experimental AD 2.4.7 (I didn't have time to test it in Omnirom nightly), so I've returned to AD 2.4.6 with stock kernel (temporarily before flashing ArchiKernel V1), I tested video recording and didn't work (pushing button doesn't start recording), with stock and google Camera. (before start to test ArchiKernel, I used to use Boeffla kernel and no problem with video recording), After flash ArchiKernel v1, video recording works but with known interlaced issue.

I haven't found any other issue with Kernel, I can't test battery life because I am using a PadTV device to watch soccer world cup games and this drain baterry about 20% per hour :D

OT: BTW, [MENTION=5270463]beeeto[/MENTION] congratulations, great game yesterday :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
You forgot about touchpad firmware and other various hidden kernel things :p. Even with proper config.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] aliw32619:
Ok i have something weird and it's is that the video recording is working for me with no problems i don't know why most of you have problems with that anyway good work [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rutz@8038:
Carbon Rom.. Opening camera causes the cell to restart..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mischa_martin:
I have the same problem.

Its not ROM its the Kernel.

Maybe we have other Camera Firmware/Hardware than other users????

My S3 was bought in Dec 2013.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rutz@8038:
Ain't sure either..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mostafa Wael:
So this camera issue is ROM related or kernel related??

I am on ArchiDroid 2.4.7 latest experimental and having this known video recording issue.

I will test with CM11 M7 and your kernel.

EDIT: i tested with CM11 M7 and it was even worse!

it is very stuttering and the video image is distorted!

back to AD 2.4.7 with AK
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Orla001:
What is the difference between 1.5 AOSP and 1.5 AOSP RP40? Is there an app that i change settings of the kernel? ((Sorry for my bad english))
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
I'm deeply impressed how you guys manage to ask the same questions tones of time already answered.

Teach me how to do it. Seriously, I want to learn this thing.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Orla001:
I don't read that STweaks is implemented in the kernel..
[Galaxy S III Android Development] d1rekt0r:
This kernel gave me hope for bright android l future , 0 animation lag in 2 days(aosp) , makes me feel like im on nexus :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] EP21:
[MENTION=5264108]malachow[/MENTION] He's right you know, not many go through all the pages of the thread to find what features a kernel has.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Oh, I have almost forgotten about this SUPER HIDDEN search tool option. :rolleyes:

Seriously? You flash something without reading even OP? Without seeking for the things which seem to be odd for you?

For me EOT. Happy ArchiKerneling.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] soronk:
I'm getting a bootloop after flashing archikernel on temasek rom. Before i flashed temasek rom to ensure to use stock kernel. Is there any other way to do it?

Edit: ok, just found out reverting from art to dalvik did the trick.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] EP21:
Haha, just noticed that it's written on github :D

Will know next time to press the download button and see where the rabbit hole leads to ;)

ArchiKernel V1.5.1

Download, changelog, and cookies

Due to some strange bug on github, I couldn't attach zips to this release (oh the irony, did I mention that github should be more reliable than xda servers in 1.5 release? Well...), I included temporary download link instead. I'll correct this in a few days, when bug will get resolved.

Please notice that it's a Pre-release. Pre-releases are usually for testing purposes, they may NOT be stable enough for daily use.

Have fun.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] supreethms:
Lol. Whoever is complaining about Antutu scores.. For JUST the SECOND time in my life i downloaded Antutu App and tested the scores. The last time is was recorded as 19,XXX. But today with ArchiKernel, it is 24642. Isn't that great? When i had the 19K mark, i was on a very good battery saver profile on Yank555's kernel. Used to get about 4 hours of screen sometimes.

And about the scores.. I seriously don't give a damn. I just want my phone to run my games and be smooth.

These devs on the form do a great job and that's enough, i suppose.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] 99x:
Antutu changes the benchmarks with each version, hence you cannot compare old scores with new ones - but I still agree with what you are saying
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
Proper links are on github already :).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sargos76:
reports on this new kernel?thanks to dev Archi

Edit: running v1.5.1 untill now all ok,will report latter
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gabyif:
Very good kernel like all the work that comes from [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION], super smooth and very very friendly with battery.I don't understand what is special with this kernel that it gives me much better battery than Boeffla even with same configuration, maybe Archi can give me the answer [emoji4]
[Galaxy S III Android Development] katolink:
+1 Very smooth, battery friendly indeed. Even on zzmoove battery yank (using deadline scheduler), no lag at all, my S3 flies! [emoji41] Stable as a rock! Thanks again Archi! [emoji6]

Incredibly fast as always, but also super stable! I'm looking for issues caused by these new implementations, but i'm unable to find them! Testing on ArchiDroid 3.0.0 experimental, dirty flashed on top of 2.5.3 stable. Well done JustArchi, your kernel rocks :).

Hmm...I don't know if it is kernel related, but since I installed 1.5.1 sometimes after changing something in sTweaks,I have a soft reboot, but very rare.

PS:Using AD 1.x
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gabyif:
And I was like ,,Whaaaaat?!, my phone got 3 and a half hours of SOT? ,,.Wow, AK really makes a difference in battery, with other kernels I hardly got 2 h of SOT.Still can't understand what makes AK so battery friendly and also gives very decent performance

Strange Lags

I am on archiport, archikernel 1.5.1 (and its a fresh install without wipe)

I am getting little lags while typing or while scrolling sometimes like on facebook or returning to the launcher, but it gets surprisingly smooth sometimes. Something might be broken.....
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Buckycasuals:
Meanwhile what version are you on? i guess its 1.5 as stated on your signature. Would you mind to share your config?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] d1rekt0r:
Using 1.5.1 almost entire day now on AOSPA , very very good performance and battery life :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] katolink:
My bad, forgot to change signature. [emoji52]

CPU oc'ed 1600, touch boost 800, touch-to-wake, zzmoove battery yank, deadline, 128 int/256 ext cache, logging disabled. All other settings standard preloaded with AK.

I noticed that with noop as governor battery life is even better, but the phone starts losing its smoothness. [emoji41]

Tapatalk'ed from my Galaxy S3-I9300 running ArchiDroid 1.7.18 powered by ArchiKernel 1.5.1
[Galaxy S III Android Development] loris100:
to me it doesnt look smoother then boeffla one, lower cpu OC capability...i tried any governor and finally found one which is smooth but kills the battery life...the other governors disable cores mostly but also lowers performance...

i think most of you cant tell the difference and dont help to improve things just make more confusion:eek:....this kernel is inferior to boeffla one, which is the best after i tried all kernels avaiable.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
I don't want to start a war, but you're wrong mate - there's no best kernel, it all depends on the user what he expects from one.

ArchiKernel has totally different objective than boeffla kernel. Here we experiment with everything we can, in order to achieve the best possible combination. I applied a ton of deep optimizations, which increased size of the whole binary by 2 Megabytes, so it's physically impossible that it's a placebo and doesn't change anything. Kernel is a kernel, it doesn't do complicated work and flashing even the ultimately optimized masterpiece like this one may, or may not, make a difference in terms of speed. However, considering the fact that kernel is running whole the time, this is one of the most mayor things to optimize, both for performance and battery life gain.

This is one of the most cutting-edge and stable kernels currently available for SGS3. People that search for more cutting-edge features can try arter's kernel, people that look for more stable kernel, can take a look at Andi's masterpiece called Boeffla kernel. ArchiKernel is somewhere between those two. The objective is to start from stock base, apply all cool third-party features (mostly known from boeffla kernel), then optimize everything to push the whole project to the border between awesomness, and unstability.

Everybody has his/her own opinion, and you can have your own top kernels, but calling this kernel inferior to other one is a bit disrespectful, especially because you're wrong, as this is one of the most optimized kernels available and definitely is more optimized than Boeffla one, because Andi prefers ultimate stability over cutting-edge optimizations such as Linaro toolchain. As I said, different objectives. If there were really no improvement, Linaro toolchain wouldn't cause any problems. And if it does, then definitely it acts differently, tries to optimize some things much more. Code generated by Linaro toolchain is completely different to Google's GCC, and this is just one thing that differs AK from Boeffla. In 1.5.1 I pushed this project even higher by enabling -Ofast optimizations, that may cause serious problems and only beta tests will tell me if it was the right, or wrong move. First signs say that it doesn't cause problems, and these are great news because -Ofast emits NEON code, which benefits CPU by utilizing FPU which is normally not generated due to breaking IEEE 754 standard.

So, yeah, this is not a simple fork which may be compared to other kernel. This is totally different look at common things that we can improve. I'm not a big fan of customizing kernel by endusers, same as Yank555, we both think that developer knows better and kernel is a "flash & forget" rather than tweaking things some people have no idea about. In fact, STweaks support was added ONLY thanks to Moster2, which itself is a great thing as it's always nice to cooperate with other experienced developers. This is not my project, Moster2 contributions to AK are comparable to mine, he's a developer of this project same as I am, and I'm sure that he likes the idea behind AK as well.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cba1986:
[MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] dont feed the troll. You are one of the most talented devs around xda. It's your kernel, your time and you don't own anything to anybody. But i would like to f2fs support one day. hehehe

It's the only thing that keeping me for using AK.

Cheers!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
F2FS requires upstreaming the kernel to particular point. Of course you can also backport the whole filesystem, but in the same time you risk stability, as backports may always make things worse :).

However, we'll see.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] loris100:
i was responding to gabyif, he says your kernel is supersmooth and more battery efficient then the boeffla one....which is incorrect and basicallly a lie.

i tried your kernel and when choosing the power efficients governors all they do is disabling cores, thats is a good way to save battery but definitely you would notice that overall performance is not the same, it feels laggy choppy and not responsive at all.

when i choose performance governor its smooth yeah, but not smoother or faster then the boeffla one...also very power hungry.

also with boeffla you can OC your cpu at 1704mhz which will make it faster by say 1-20milliseconds maybe more, are they noticeable?..thats a good question...but definitely wont hurt.

im not talking about features or optimizations because they dont bother me...but the things i notice i feel like i have to tell them not spread bull**** like some guys do here...

i change roms and kernels any day so im not a fanboy of any kind if you were wondering.:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Sargos76:
hey loris100 talking and criticise is easy, if you can do better put your money where your mouth is and bring as a better kernel made by you, now this is real talking not bul....

[Galaxy S III Android Development] malachow:
Oh, wait! Stahp! You forgot completely about posting some ultra trust worthy antutu benchmark scores! Come on, we all, especially ahead with Archi, would love to see those neat comparison! Dat battle! This unpredictable plot!

:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] abhibnl:
Let me give you a free advice. Never ever post disrespectful comments in the thread of one of the most talented devs actively developing for s3, unless you want to unleash the wrath and anger of all the Archi/boeffla fans on you. The thing you just mentioned, it's the most diarespectful thing you could ever say in a dev's thread. Why are you comparing two different kernels having a totally different objective? Do you know that AK is the only kernel that offers R4P0 support with stock sources, which makes is fly even further. I'm not even using AK but i'm a fan of archi's work. Learn to respect. If you think boeffla is superior, keep that thought to yourself. I'm sure 99.99% of us will not be even interested what you think at all. Instead you could have said "boeffla is more stable for me, but this one is not working well, may be due to beta version or my settings." Next time, DO NOT POST DISRESPECTFUL COMMENT or believe me, many fans wills will burn you with theirs.

loris100 if you think this kernel is inferior you do not understand what inferior means. One does not buy a McLaren for day to day driving, good fuel economy and mobility is superior to gas guzzling power.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Buckycasuals:
With regards to his XDA profile name LORIS100, i guess he is french. His first language is not English. Damn Google translator or otherwise :laugh:

What he is trying to say sounds disrespectful to the dev for the amount of time they spent in making a smooth and solid kernel.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Code124Y:
anyway, im not judging any side, but smooth to A dosnt mean its same to B, while maybe fast respone (a 0.3sec delay on opening random apps) to A is a delay but not to B(0.7sec delay on opening app), not everyone responsive are EQUAL... as what i know, even antutu also can not tell anything... i got both 21K score over sammy and AOSP, but the delay on sammy really high vs AOSP... so how u judge by any smooth?

judge it on ur phone...

1st..i am no developer..

2nd..im a flasholic..looking for the most battery saving rom/kernel till this day..and im still not satisfied with it..

3rd..ive been registered as xda member for a long time but just recently active on posting coz i wanna learn/ask from these honorable s3 devs..

my point is..i think eventho im am still indeed a noob..i always read the post and keep learning about s3 custom rom/kernel/apps and hit the search button first before questioning someone..im from malaysia..i think people around me and near me didnt even know xda existence, even 'root' word seems strange to them..and theres no need to even question archikernel/boeffla/arter97 kernel to them..

IMO..honestly ive been quietly looking at xda s3 android development thread for almost every second, looking for updates..and keep flashing and flashing..im really proud and thankful for developers such as archi, andip, arter, temasek, yank, and other imfamous developer for their support and development for our old S3 phone..and most importantly..their doing it for FREE, i wish i am born rich, so i can donate to them :p but honestly..we should respect their own work..and each of their work has their own pro and con..there is no perfect one..REALLY! but they all keep getting good and really good with their work..and its all up to us to choose or to use which one depends on our own mood or our own necessity..but please..

RESPECT THEIR WORK

they all are the best..i really wish that i studied programming or coding and contribute some too for the community..btw keep up the good work [MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION]..and also to other developers too..you all know it better than us..:D

[MENTION=4604352]Moster2[/MENTION] is possible to add settings to UV all freq in once in stweaks?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] marcero:
since 1.5.1 I have some UI lafs especially when and shortly after turning on screen. In cool tool it shows that cpu is running at 1600 MHz all the time, sometimes process system_server pops up.

Cannot tell if its AD 3.0.0 pre-experimental or 1.5.1, since I flashed them to shortly after each other to tell about that.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] katolink:
Have not tried AD 3 exp so far, but I think it is not caused by AK 1.5.1. No lags here and cool tool shows diferent values for CPU.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Moster2:
Possible? Yes. Needed? No. Do you really play around with the UV settings all the time, so that you actually need it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Orel1996:
I think he means one button to put everything on -25mv for example, which isn't needed but would be convenient :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Moster2:
I know what he means.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] marcero:
I went back to v1.5 to compare and see
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JustArchi:
I doubt that but considering the fact that OFast may cause issues, it's possible.

Usually it's specific app that forces such scenario, AK 1.5 is without -Ofast so yeah you have easy way to compare as you can flash both of them without doing any wipes or flashing stock kernel (downgrades are possible).

I must be able to reproduce the issue to check if it's really caused by -Ofast, or not. As I said previously, pre-releases act as a "sandboxes" for every feature that I'd like to implement, but I'm not sure if it'll be stable.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Willy89:

STweaks problem

Hello everyone. I just faced an issue about STweaks and I need a bit help about that :)

I flashed AK 1.5.1 while using arter's 4.4.4 port. Anyways I open STweaks and when I try to change governor profile or CPU Max Freq, it shows that CPU max frequency: $ (Normally it shows CPU max frequency: 1600 right?) and after reopening STweaks, I see that nothing changed. So I am unable to change anything on STweaks. I used search field of this thread but I couldn't find anything about it.

So, sorry if this problem was mentioned before.
