Ok, that I didn't know, so theoretically they should be able to look into the code and answer the question. Sorry, I've not been following this now lengthy post, but one of the devs must be the person who started the changelog topic (http://xdaforums.com/android/development/rom-changelogs-jiayu-s3-mt6752-jiayu-s3-t3347768) ? Who's the other(s)?

Let me PM them and let us see if they would be willing to help. I see people from other devices are having trouble, to achieve this too, so if the solution would work on S3 it could also be common for all MediaTek enabled devices...
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Dani551:
I would not recommend to pm them.

You can post here and they will respond

They are good and active.

:)
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] sniffer:
OK, right, I can see as to why. OK, let us see if they find the time to have a look at this.

Just to remind, we're talking about the possibility of having the USB Host mode enabled while simultaneously charging the phone. For example Samsung devices differentiate the ID pin's resistance value and switch mode accordingly (SMARTDOCK, AUDIODOC, CARDOCK etc.). See links in my previous posts for more details.

If you find the time, please let us now what are the available modes on JY-S3 or at least provide the charging chip name/driver name so I can look it up if its publicly available/open sourced.

Internal storage full

Guys, just some advise for anyone having troubles with the internal storage .

I'm using CM 12.1 (v2) and just recently started having warnings about full internal storage, weird because I have very little apps installed, almost no photos or videos, etc, so wtf was going on?,

Well, Fist I used a program called Disk Usage, it shows graphically the folder structure and it's sizes and discovered that something called "System Data" was using nearly 9GB!, it turns out that there is a folder called "Core" (\Data\Core) with a los of zCore*.zip files, I googled about it and those are some kind of dump logs and are safe to remove, just use any explorer with root support. Now I have 9GB of free space :victory:
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] DerTeufel1980:
For kernel source, you can check this one. It's not exactly the one from jiayu, but it's almost the same

https://github.com/Vgdn1942/kernel-3.10.72

Just don't try compiling/flashing it. If you find something related to your request, let me know.

It's 3.10 kernel

Gesendet von meinem s3 mit Tapatalk
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Verevka:
That is your CM13 will work on lib's from 5.1? Do I understand?

We were partially able to compile the kernel under 6.0, but due to the lack of lib's we are at an impasse = (

sorry for my English.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] RalphMalph:
What can we expect? What are you all working on?

CM13

AICP11

RC6
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] DerTeufel1980:
The kernel is basically from lp, with just selinux updated. Without selinux updates, it does not boot (or you need to modify selinux on rom side, but we didn't try it that way).

The libs are from lp, besides ril and parts of camera.

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] sniffer:
Thanks, I had a look. Most interesting places to look for are in:

drivers/misc/mediatek/power (files starting with 'charging'),

drivers/misc/mediatek/mu3d/{drv,phy}

drivers/misc/mediatek/usb20

drivers/power/mediatek

include/mach

sound/soc/mediatek

when it comes to mediatek and (mostly) usb/charging releated code.

There seem to be the possibility for the usb driver stack to achieve host+charging mode judging by the code.

I've found this define which may enable some interesting stuff in the topic: MTK_DUAL_INPUT_CHARGER_SUPPORT (have a look at drivers/power/mediatek/battery_common.c)

Others:

MTK_PUMP_EXPRESS_PLUS_SUPPORT for MediaTek PumpExpress+ (proprietary fast charge).

MTK_XXXYYYZZZ_SUPPORT - some charging solutions enablement?

MTK_SMART_BATTERY (seems to be the drivers/power/mediatek code related)

MTK_SWCHR_SUPPORT

MTK_HAFG_20

In Samsung kernel, on devices that use MAX77693 chip, here is the related code:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...412/blob/cm-12.1/drivers/misc/max77693-muic.c

It would be useful to know which chip on S3 is responsible for charging and its driver. This would be easier to figure out.

I dunno what's causing this issue.. but I just cant reboot : whether I power off first or reboot directly, it's stuck.. I must go to recovery and wipe caches, then it'll starts fine.. Sometimes!! Some other times you gotta do it twice or more.. WTF! What can I try/what do you think it could be?

Yes, please! I tried several ROMS and i believe the "modem" part is included in the ROM. But i am not sure. I do flashing using flashtools. Wipe everything, etc.

When i set the AIRPLANE MODE i have no problem at all. Maybe it is a modem problem?

Any help is kindly welcome.

No idea for my booting issue? By the way, the SMS app on RC5 has no delay sending option and the pop doesn't have a "read" button which sucks. If anybody got better stock (from CM12 ROM for example), would you mind uploading it?

Battery/Charger? issue

Hello guys,

I have one issue with my S3. It is charging phone all the time (14 hours......). When I restart phone battery shows 100% and charging stops. But it destroyed completely first battery. I thought that it is by faulty battery but I bought new one and problem persists. I am running RC5 rom. Which hardware is responsible for checking level of the battery? Charger/USB module? I can replace it but I would like to be assured that it at least could be caused by charger module.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Paradelle:
I get between 5-6 hours on average. The battery life is excellent, and reading this thread it appears lots of other folks get around that mark too.

Hi, I'm not sure If I should buy this phone, do you think it will have Lollipop? thanks

ps : french user too...
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] elias87:
Thank you for your reply! does it have any disadvantages?anything i should worry about?
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Paradelle:
I haven't had any issues with it. Pound for pound it's the best phone I've owned (and I've owned a few.) It's fast, good screen, solid camera. I paid £150 for mine, and I like it more than my old LGG3 which cost £300.

Quite a few people have had issues with slow charging though, so it's something to bear in mind. There's one or two other issues that others have had but I can't remember them at the moment. Have a read through this thread. Everyone is friendly and don't mind (as far as I can see) answering the same questions over and over. Which is nice.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] menoff:
I could recommend this phone with no regret.

Fast, smooth, no issues. Charging is like 4-5 hours on my side, but sot 5+ hours is nice. Camera is ok, nothing special.

Buy something else only if you want premium touch maybe. I was in dilemma for Meizu M1 Note but I am glad I saved 25 eur.

Also, they say Lollipop should be available soon (few months) and I expect it shows real power of this architecture.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] ionutz72:
It happens again one time after latest reply. Which ROM you use?

At me have other bug; some time upper (noise) microphone is activated both with bottom microphone.

When my microphone sound is poor in conversation,after end call, try all microphones with this app, and see both microphones is active . After reboot all is ok, and upper microphone is disabled (no reaction in Sound Meter). Noise option is disabled. Any idea?
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] cyberdejy:
Hi, no I didn't charge it for 24 hours, I think only about 6-7 hours and than I become nervous.

I cannot flash it because SFTool don't recognize the phone. Now is 22:38 and I will leave the phone on the charger till tomorrow late afternoon night.

BTW does it matter if I charge them for 24 hours or for example 20 hours?

Thank you all. I am going to watch a movie and waiting for a response from SpeMall.

See you tomorrow :)

Hi [MENTION=4488810]Levered[/MENTION]. Nice to heard the information. Is there update for S3 advance too? Is that true if we install custom recovery then we don't get any update anymore? If true, can someone help us with the update? Thanks
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] genesisalgor:
Hi guys, people complaining about the real battery capacity. Here is a test of it. You can check in part 1, they start the test with the phone power completely down. There's a tool, plugged in the phone port and in the charger, the device check the power voltage received and calculate the total power has been charged in the device, until get 100%

Part 1: The Test starts, battery on 0%

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcETj0xoqh4

Part 2: The second part, has been recorded with the battery on 92% with about

2823mAh

value:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjzwsNDZgxk

But just notice, the phone is on 92%.

92% of 3000 is about = 2760mAh

92% of 3100 is about = 2852mAh

With those results, will can certainly assume, the battery capacity rests between the value of 3000 and 3100, like stated on label. Really great to confirm that!

Before CM13 is released, just my 2 cents what I find missing in CM12:

- FM Radio support (seems to work, but I'm missing sound),

- FastCharge options/feature (is present in RC5),

- 3G/LTE on second slot

But I bet you already know about it. Will any of it make it into CM13?

One more thing I've noticed. In RC5 there seems to be a better algorithm/db/detection mechanism of the network name for telefony. Currently on CM12.1 when I put in a MVNO operator SIM card, the network name of the MNO (base, GSM infrastructure operator) is displayed instead of MVNO's.

One option that went away some time ago is the 'WIFI Band' which allowed to change 2GHz, 5GHz or both bands. Is it possible to bring it back? Or maybe does CM13/A6.0 have this option restored?

Changing USB, I have done same, easy to do with no soldering needed, hardest thing was swapping the double sided tape over, 2 connectors only. That fixed my low charging, pc bad connection and got better speakers too. You remove the back cover, remove all the screws in the back and lift the inner back from the bottom, I left the inner cover connected at the top and was able to remove the old USB board and fit the new, its only held in with double sided sticky tape.

For what it's worth, I think try to change your charger. I have 2 chargers: one is a Sony Xperia charger and another is a cheap 2A charger. The Sony cable plugs in tightly into the Jiayu's USB port without issues. The cheap charger's plug on the other hand is "dancing" inside the port, and I have to rest the plug on something so it actually connects. I recommend trying another charger.
