Good. Then stay on original kernel.

I doubt it is a kernel thing, but.... Anyways I do not change anything on the kernel anymore (only in maintenance mode as stated).

Can I use this with CM 12.1 based ROM?

I'm running PA 5.1(cm 12.1). Seems like it's not listed as stable. Can I use this kernel with that?

Device: i9300
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RajashekarReddy.A:
There is no stable boeffla kernel for Lollipop ?. You can download the latest alpha for CM12.1 for I9300 from download section. It runs smooth on most of Lollipop 5.1.1 roms. Give it a try.

Just to be careful, having a back up is preferred before flashing.

Yes, both boot and system together would bring all kernel image and modules back. But only if you restore them both. It is not sufficient to only restore boot back!

Hey guys! After about 4-5 months having struggling with my blown up loudspeaker of my S3, it's today that I put in, a new one. OMG! It's bursting (in a good way). The sound is really, really very loud now.

I rooted my phone about 2 years ago and always kept the speaker volume in the Boeffla app to 63. It was after a year that I heard that it would blow my speaker away. I don't know why did it blew 'cause things like my phone falling down from heights which got it's back cover and battery out happened many times and once it fell in water in a rainy season and was underwater for about 3 minutes..!

Now, I do not want to damage this speaker in any way and I'm handling it with more care. Just wanted to ask if it was actually because of me keeping the volume high and using it at full sounds when in heavy traffic or watching a video on the raised volume in MX Player (at 30 in H/W+ or S/W decoder)? I did use it for about a year like that but I never thought it may blow my speaker some day!

Was it actually that reason?

Hello everybody,

I approve the features of Boeffla Kernel for quite a long time, so I just want to say thank you to everybody who is involved in the development process.

You spend a lot of time in simplifying and improving so many things on my Galaxy S3, I really appreciate this.

At the moment I am testing the app Greenify, which you may know from your own experience.

Therefore, I just want to ask whether it is safe to greenify or hibernate the Boeffla app or not?

Is my Boeffla profile, once initialized during the boot-up, present during the whole session as long as the phone is turned on or do I need the background process of the app to safe my settings.

In other words, do I lose my Boeffla configuration if I greenify the Boeffla app when my phone is in deep sleep mode? Or is it safe to greenify the app and my Boeffla configuration will survive anyways?

Thank you in advance for your reply!

True. Thanks was always my major design goal for the app.

Hi, Andi

Each time i boot into recovery, (TWRP), and flash your kernel zip file ( Alpha 6), Clear Cache and Reboot...

It is not done.

Am i skipping something ??

As i install BF Config App V2 , it says you dont have BF Kernel.

It shows Archi Kernil in information.

Edit: I installed it with universal kernel flasher. It (Boeffla) was installed. But wifi was not working. So after that i did a full wipe and reflashed rom.

The kernel changed to archi again.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andip71:
Maybe Voodoo? :)

No, honestly I can just guess without looking at your phone.

Most likely you have a script placed into /system/addons.d, which preserves the kernel in a way.

Look for scripts in that directory and check if one of it could be kernel related.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AriesArehman:
Actullay i am kinda noob...

Sure will look for it. But after full wipe and reflash i understud that archi kernel was with blisspop rom

So i just want to know..

When you flash a new rom after full wipe. It flashes the kernel too ?? Or just rom ??

Thanks :)

A rom flash typically flashes the kernel that comes with the rom, yes.

Hi Andi,

My phone ASV level is 3. I read that higher the value we can under volt the phone more. So my question are,

1. For value 3 we have any recommended undervolt value? or we just need to find that in trial and error method?

2. What is max ASV value you have seen so far?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andip71:
This is not generally right.

The ASV value just says what the intitial voltage table is. Good SoCs can run with a bit lower voltages, less good need higher voltages.

It is not true, it automatically means you can more or less undervolt.

I am in general against undervolting !!! So just do not do it. It impacts stability with no real improvements on battery.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahe.:
Thanks Andi for clarification, In preset settings we actually have undervolt in battery saving profile. So thought UV more and battery life directly proportional.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andip71:
No. This is only the theory on paper, not real life.

And I regret the day already when I implemented undervolting. I should have never done it in any kernel.

It is useful to avoid hot phone temperatures for some. But battery life is hardly impacted in a positive way.

But stability is impacted negative, almost always.

BUG/missing permissions? eth0 (USB->LAN) interface only usable as root since CM12 Hi

Hi Lord Boeffla,

The problem described in the title appears with the boeffla kernels 3.1-CM-12.0 and 4.0-alpha-11-CM12.1.

I used the kernels with the following ROMs:

"cm-12-WEEKLY-April-Fools-Edition-i9300.zip"

"cm-12.1-20150825-UNOFFICIAL-i9300.zip "

(both ROMs were recommed in your kernel "Change log" on your boeffla-website)

and additionally I tried the following ROM

Archidroid 3.1.2 (CM12.1)

Everthing was working out of the box except the eth0 (USB->LAN) interface is only usable as root user in the "terminal".

When I try to ping my router "ping 192.168.1.1" or any internet IP I get a android connect "network is unreachable" .

The only IP-adrress I can ping as normal user is my own IP-adress of the eth0 interface (for expample 192.168.1.XX).

After login as root with the "

su

" command in the "terminal" I can ping the router IP and every internet IP.

Even disabling the iptables filters/firewall did not help.

When I switch to the wlan0 interface I can ping everything with my normal user and the internet connection is available for every app.

Is this BUG/missing permission related to Android 5.x+ or the boeffla CM12.0 / CM12.1 kernels?

Have you already recognized this problem when using the asix USB-LAN-adapter?

Because of this BUG/missing permission I had to switch back to Archidroid 3.02 (Android 4.4.4 CM11) including the stagefright bug :crying:

Thanks for your help
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andip71:
I have no clue. I never use the lan interface via usb. At least not in the past 6 months.

Guess it can be selinux related. Maybe you should try to disable selinux for that.

Just an idea.

I don't have my asix adapter anymore + s3 kernel development is over.

So guess you need to continue investigating on your own.

Andi
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schnick_schnack:
Thanks for your fast answer and your idea. I disabled "SELinux strict" in your "boeffla v2 app" but I still cannot use the eth0 interface as normal user. Other USB-devices (mouse, keyboard and so on) can be used as normal user. So it is "just" permission problem with the eth0 interface.

hi [MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION]

sorry if this question is out of the topic..

can you suggest what is the best governor and IO for gaming? or any tips that make the phone less hotter when playing games?

i have read some of the post in xda and some goolge's website, but maybe im not really comprehend english, so i confused what is the best governor and IO. If you can suggest which one, since you are the one that understand how the kernels, cpu works, so i will take advice from you as a professional in this coding field.

im using cm13 and looking for balance between performance and battery since im playing CoC game , not the 3D game mostly.

i want to choose performance governor, most of the answer it is good for gaming, but i think, when im not gaming, does the cpu max all the time? or when im open apps like chrome, does the phone need max cpu to utilize chrome...? or i have to switch between governor to do task and gaming?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andip71:
You should ask someone who is doing gaming.

I never do, even state in all my OPs that gaming is the least of my priorities apart from benchmarks.

And also I stopped using my S3 about a year ago already, have four newer phones meanwhile.

So in short - I cannot guide you at all here. But maybe someone else can.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g104:
try zzmove - game or pegasusq & change scheduler to zen.

currently, i'm playing coc only & stick with pegasusq due to official CM optimized. most likely u won't see any huge noticeable different by changing governor in real life.

my cpu also will get hot above 60°c (max 68°c) when i flashed rom (during optimizing..), skype, wechat video call, whatsapp call, waze (GPS on) & sometimes even watching youtube/mx player or surfing browser (dolphin) *depend the ambient temp & how long the usage

i tested using a fan to blow the back side it will not get hot when u holding but cpu temp still stuck at above 60°c during intensive usage. reduce the brightness to min can get few °c drop.

since S3 is pretty old hp, i suggest u change the thermal paste to get better temperature. once u hold yr hp getting hot, cpu will tend to throttle down & reduce performance.

3. Go to system updates and select update PRL

4. After its updated go back to mobile networks and switch it from global back to GSM/UMTS (it will auto switch when you update prl)

5. Go to roaming in settings and scroll to the bottom and set APN

6. Download Signal Check or Signal Check Pro from the play store to show data signal in the status bar

7. The no sim icon will still be in the status bar but you can remove ot with tweakboxand set carrier text

I registered my phone with Straight Talk a couple days ago and I've been trying to get it to work. I've looked everywhere and Straight Talk has lived up to their reputation of having terrible customer service. Anyway, they've confirmed that my phone is activated, but I can't make a call or anything. I'm thinking it has to do with my settings.

Just to cover all the bases, I tried to activate on the CDMA network via the network access code, but I couldn't register my phone due to no coverage in my area (which I know is not true). So I registered on GSM with the ATT SIM card. My Sprint service no longer works, although I'm showing signal bars in the status bar. Whenever I try to make a call it says "Unable to validate your account. Please contact customer services."

I tried the steps listed in the first post but whenever I switch to GSM/UMTS and try to update the PRL it says "Authentication error. Please try again later."

It's also worth mentioning that my phone is rooted and I have frozen a lot of apps, most of which are listed here:

Ok, after much research and many reboots, I've finally got it working. I tried several different methods but the one that finally worked for me was installing the CloudyG3 rom. I'm no expert by any means but my guess is because you have to completely overwrite any evidence of Sprint that is preventing the other carrier's SIM card from working (for me this was ATT through Straight Talk). I had to set my Network mode to GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto. My data is not quite as fast as I had hoped at 21.06 down 3.72 up but at this point it's better than nothing.

A couple problems I've noticed so far is after cloudy finished installing and my Lookout was running it's first test it flagged QuickApps and LGBackup as malicious apps. I didn't uninstall them yet because they seem harmless but I did freeze them with Rom Toolbox just in case. Can anybody confirm that they're safe or that uninstalling them won't cause any bugs?

I've been looking at these, launching in November.

I'm really in 2 minds about them though.

I don't generally buy cases & hate all the flapping about to answer calls etc.

What are you guys thoughts on the smart cover?
[Xperia Z3 Accessories] xBlackWolf90:
I don't usually like these type of flip covers. However, the official flip covers for the Samsung S5 were great. Really good build quality, and a nice feel to them.

It's hard to be able to make a judgement when the case isn't released yet, so I'll be waiting to see some more photos and reviews before shelling out on one of these, as they're hardly a budget offering.

Looking at a couple of videos on YouTube, it looks like these cases will attach with a kind of adhesive? I'm yet to be convinced.
[Xperia Z3 Accessories] enfurno:
Not a fan.. The flap is always there which is the problem with these in my opinion.
[Xperia Z3 Accessories] DeadlyDazza:
I decided to buy one of these cases.

Let me tell you right now... I hate cases. I've never had a case for a single one of my devices.

However, I was a little annoyed at how scratched the rear of my Xperia Z became.

Been using this case for a few days now & it's great.

It doesn't attach to the case in the normal way, it 'sticks' to a large strip on the inside rear of the case.

I've removed & replaced the phone numerous times & it's had no effect on the stickiness of the strip at all.

There's no side protection to the case so it's not going to give much on the side of impact protection if dropped.

The style window is awesome though.

You can set multiple lock screen widgets to it to flick through when closed. Closing with screen on switches to style window widget for a few seconds & opening unlocks the screen.

Text notifications are shown on the window & incoming calls can be answered by swiping the window without opening. If a call is placed on the phone the case can be closed with caller id & swipe to hang up on the style window.

The case can be folded behind easily & there's access for all buttons & flaps & can also be placed on magnetic charging dock while closed (included with the case is a dock adapter for case width).

Swiping the camera icon on the window or holding the camera hard button down allows to take pictures while showing camera preview on the style window without opening the case.

Playing music is also shown on the style window with track buttons.

The slimness adds next to nothing on phone thickness.

I'm quite impressed with it tbh.
[Xperia Z3 Accessories] ridearoundsolo:

I just bought one of these cases and I'm waiting for it to arrive. Couldn't find one for sale in Canada so I bought from the UK. I had one like this for my LG G2, but it snapped on the back. The quick window is a necessity for me.
