Hi all,

maintenance update out for you.

I decided to remove the zip signature from the flashable zip as it turns out to cause trouble for many recovery versions.

As it, at the same time, provides absolutely zero advantage (everone can unpack the zip, change content, zip and sign it again with the test keys out in the web - so there is anyway no security the zip was not touched since I released it), so why causing trouble for nothing...

Version 2.1-beta3

18.07.2016

Change: Removed zip signature to be more compatible with certain recoveries

(do not forget to configure your recovery to bypass signature checks;

when flashing the kernel out of Boeffla-Config's TWRP screen, this is done automatically temporarily for Boeffla-Kernel zips)

Enjoy

[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] hejo1:
Yeah, i did check the gpu tab. Minimum is 200 and max is 578 mhz.

But in adreno it never goes higher than 200 mhz as shown in the info tab.

If i change to ondemand it goes up to max 578 mhz; but only sometimes as the percentage shows.

Anyway, this don`t really bother me, because i am not playing any games.

Only thing is if you watch a small video or news-movie.

I also don`t know when it has to go up to max frequenzy? Maybe you get that only on games or so on; i have no idea?

But if i switch to ondemand everything is fine; so no problem at all.

Also autorotation is working fine again.

Going to have a cold beeeeer now :p
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Kamal363:
I had same issue... i set minimum to 389 it will run from 27 till 578... if i set minimum 200 it will stay at 200 all the time...

Sorry for my bad english...

this beta3 is better than Beta 2 less Battery Drain. thanks greats Jobs
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] mcdachpappe:
thank you very much for your awesome kernel, config app and support!

im finally now on marshmallow and switched again to your kernel. works great even on phoenix rom.. much appreciated :)

Pure coincide as not even a single code line was changed.

Read the article on my homepage (faq) about myths on kernel having big influence on battery.

You are welcome.

Andi
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] hejo1:
Thanks for that solution.

I simply put it down to 27 mhz, switched back to adreno governor and now it's working how it is supposed to be.

[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] andip71:
Ok, did some investigation with using pure stock kernel on original Samsung firmware G900FXXU1CPE1.

Result is: The system behaves the same, mainly using one GPU frequency only. The only difference is - Samsung Stock uses 266 MHz at 99% of the time, my kernel uses 200 MHz.

However, when strong graphical power is required (e.g. running Seascape benchmark), the GPU scales up as required to the maximum frequency.

So, it works indeed.

The fact my kernel is using lower frequencies is result of the additional 27 MHz step. And I have to say, I like the behaviour as 200 MHz are more than sufficient for everything when using the phone for normal purpose. This would same some juice.

People can still set min frequency to 266 MHz if they feel it is required for them for smooth operation.

So all in all, everything seems to be fine.

Andi
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] DorfPunk:
Does someone might know how I can fix this? I already tried a clean install and I never had Xposed, greenify or stuff like that installed.

EDIT: Nevermind. It took 20min to initialize.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] andip71:
You should check whether you have init.d scripts running, which are poorly written (unfortunately this is very frequently the case with custom roms).

Anyways, it cannot have taken longer than 90 seconds as my app fires a timeout error when it takes longer for the initialization script to run.

Andi
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] or1m:
unfortunately, after update to 2.03 stepcounter stopped counting.

reflash to 2.0 did not helped...

any suggestions, please?
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] andip71:
Not kernel related, so do rather not expect an answer in this thread.

It has nothing to do with 2.03 flash, though it might look like that for you.

Andi
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] or1m:
yeah, thanks anyway, i figured it out by flashing another kernel (e.g. not from you) :)

i am going to reflash my rom, something else it is...

Just a qustion.

Could you advise me the appropriate settingsfor Boeffla Sound section?The volume of the WhatsApp Calling is too high!

Best

2.1beta 3 is perfect

yet for me without error, thanks to my friend:):):)
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] andip71:
Well, what should I say? Then reduce either the general volume with the volume rocker or lower the values here.

I am not using my S5 at all on a daily basis, so I am the worst one asking for settings :)

[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] gthomek:
Hi all!

I'm using xXx 5.0 ROM with Boeffla kernel 2.1b3 and Boeffla config 2.3.5. I do anything, this a undermentioned mistake comes out steadily:

"Boeffla-Config cannot write to your SD memory,this impacts functionality of Boeffla-Config.

Please restart your system now,maybe you should wipe Art,Dalvik cache as well."

Done restart and wipe cache but still encounter the error.

Format SD card.

What may be the solution?
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Kamal363:
Try install XinternalSD module and MM sd fix module.... active for Boeffla app...

[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] mcdachpappe:
i know you are going to hate me Lord Boeffla but i have to ask this:

your kernel's are running in permissive mode, but i cant get viper4android working with your kernel. on phoenix kernel (which runs on permissive too) i dont have any problems installing it. i had in the past your kernels on my g900f with lollipop where your kernels ran on enforcing - which i solved with a fix. but now i cant get it working on marshmallow.

what could cause this issue? your different busybox? or could it be everything? i dont know anything about kernels - i just compared your changelogs for some differences.

and sorry again that im asking something which dont really belong to your kernel. maybe you got an advice for me
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] andip71:
No clue. I never used viper4android myself.

But you still can configure the kernel to run in permissive mode. You can change it in the app.

Maybe someone else who has experience with v4a can guide here.

Andi
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] daniel.mota:
Well I use viper4android included in xXx's rom together with boeffla kernel in strict mode without any kind of issue.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] mcdachpappe:
your latest beta 3 runs on default in permissive mode or am i wrong? and to change the selinux state i have to tick/untick in your config the "strict" checkbox or is there anywhere else another setting for this?

[MENTION=1187675]daniel.mota[/MENTION]

yes i had boeffla kernel in enforcing mode working on bpe3 release (lollipop) and on permissive mode on cpe3 (marshmallow) but only with phoenix kernel and not boeffla.

thats why im asking what could be the cause of my issue as viper needs a permissive kernel and the beta3 is from stock (regarding to the changelog) on permissive, too
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] andip71:
Wrong.

Latest betas always start in strict mode. And if configured, they can switch to permissive when loading the kernel settings after start.

Before (up to last stable kernel) it was the other way round, kernel started permissive and then switched to strict after start.

Andi
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] mcdachpappe:
alright, got it. but can you tell me how to start in permissive mode? is it the check box thing i mentioned before? because after the first time i started your config app the "strict" checkbox was unticked - so i assumed that its in permissive mode.

/edit:

excuse me if these questions bother you
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Kamal363:
Make sure its Uncheck then go to phone setting about device to confirm its permissive...

SM G900F xXx 5.0 Odex Boeffla 2.1 beta3 Twrp 3.0.2-0
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] andip71:
Yep, just untick the check box, then the kernel runs in permissive mode.

Whether v4a works or not is another thing.

I personally would anyways never use a software that does not run on a system with selinux strict. This pretty much sounds dodgy to me it requires permissive.

Andi
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] mcdachpappe:
thank you very much. at least i know now that i wasnt able to get it working in both modes.

maybe the problem is somewhere else as it was working on your lollipop releases in enforcing mode - strange thing that i cant get it working on marshmallow then..

anyways, thank you again for your support! great dev.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Kamal363:
For me i cant run as strict... will hangg/freeze/reboot... so permissive is my choice... ???

[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Lascaille:
Hi... I have a S5-G900F running LP on the stock Samsung ROM, I installed the 2.0 kernel by mistake and bootlooped. I restored to the stock samsung kernel (taken from a backup I performed immediately before installing the 2.0 kernel) and then installed the 1.5 kernel which runs fine. Now my fingerprint sensor is not detected (null in sensors). I restored to the same prior stock samsung kernel but the same problem occurs. The problem is not with the fingerprint software (I cleared data/cache several times) but with the sensor (it shows up as 'null' in the Samsung FingerPrint sensor test and that test never passes). Other sensor applications show the sensor as nonexistent. Is there something that has to be done?
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] or1m:
Andi, hi,

I know it is friday, but

I have some technical questions here... :)

Can you tell me, if you even know,

how exact is the information about charging current

in Charge info in Boeffla Config, please?

Is there any chip ( DAC ) measuring the current or what is the origin of the actual current number?

And if I set let´s say 1500mA, how is it handled?

Should it be exactly 1500mA +-error or is it just floating around that value...

Thanks for info :)

or1m
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] andip71:
Of course I know, as I have extended the charging driver to deliver that information.

The figure is a wild guess, it is not at all accurate. This is the reason why I removed the figure some months ago but many users complained they found it useful, so I brought it back. Just check the change logs for it.

It is delivered by the Qualcomm charging circuit, but very inaccurate, as said.

I personally do not trust it at all. All I trust is my USB current meter, which shows me what really goes over the cable.

Andi
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] or1m:
Yeah, thanks Andi,

I actually used USB current meter, but the results were strange.

At lover current it was (approximately) the same (config/meter), but the higher current, the bigger (inconsistent) error.

But I also do not trust that USB gadget form China, too... :)

Maybe I will cut a real USB cable and measure the current with actual Ampere meter.

To be sure... or to fulfil my curiosity. :cool:

or1m
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Bredal22:
Thanks for your information about this, also thanks to Andi.

If you make further investigations into this, please share your findings with us [emoji14]
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Lascaille:
Adding to this, I reinstalled the stock ROM G900FZHS1BPC2 (the existing ROM) and the fingerprint sensor is still not working.

Is this something to do with the security features of the device i.e. that the fingerprint sensor is accessed through the ARM SecureZone, and changing the Kernel requires a reset?
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Lascaille:
FWIW I managed to solve this issue, as well as the same related issue which prevented wifi passwords from being saved - for whatever reason changing the kernel interfered with the Qualcomm QSEE secured communication keys.

Restoring the fingerprint sensor was achieved by deleting /data/validity and /dev/validity then restarting.

Fixing the wifi was acheived by either deleting ssrm_*.db or the files in a subdirectory of a secured_storage diretory called wifi_supplicant. Not 100% sure.

Factory reset would probably have solved both but that's not fun enough.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] MIKEMON:
updating to the latest rom

This will help you and there is no problem
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] gc_geforce:
This Kernel works great on the Phoenix S5 ROM , the only thing I am trying to do is to get the "SELinux strict" to stick after I reboot. I would select it and confirmed that everything is working just fine but then when I reboot, I get the message "Profile Default applied". What am I doing wrong? I also have tried the "battery Friendly" preset and it does not stick after reboot and when I select it, it removes the checked "SELinux strict" box.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] daniel.mota:
Maybe your rom or another installed app is switching selinux to permissive.

Do you have any running script in init.d?
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] gc_geforce:
Not that I know of, but looking now.

This is what I found :

Would this be from installing Busybox? should I uninstall it?

---------- Post added at 12:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ----------

I removed that file in the init.d and now the "SELinux Strict" sticks!!! BUT it still loads the default config.. How do I make load a different preset config?
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] andip71:
This script is definitively the reason why Selinux was always switching to permissive after start.

May I ask where this script is coming from? If it is part of the rom, I have another reason to enforce my opinion about custom roms (and many so called tweaks which are just pure bull****).

Profile loading:

Are you sure, you have created a profile which is not called default?

Or are you mixing up profile and preset? If you have e.g. chosen a preset in the app, it does mean the settings are applied in your currently selected profile. It is like a template of settings that are configured for the given profile.

If you are confused by that, I recommend the Boeffla-Config documentation on the homepage. Whilst it is pretty much outdated for the individual configuration settings, this is explained in every detail and still useful.

Andi
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] gc_geforce:
I am not sure were it came from, but I have asked this in the Phoenix forum, to see if it was there for any reason. Also, my bad on the "default" profile, as it does have the preset set of the "battery Friendly" so everything is running correct now with the right settings I wanted. sorry for the confusion (my confusion). :good:
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Zytrel:
I know it's Off-Topic, but this WE I had a look at the problem again, and it turns out, they secretly updated the Recovery. I was using the 3.0.2.2 they published right from the start. It turns out, they updated the recovery without changing version numbers. The current version works perfectly. But seriously, what's the purpose of version numbers if you're not gonna use them? (Feeling a bit annoyed) :)

Hi can anyone tell me how's the battery timing on this kernel?
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Many40:
Hi,

No problem. For me is as on attached screenshots but it's of course dependant on individual phone usage.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] ghoster76:
Light used phone, I guess you just use your phone to call and sms :D
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Many40:
Light usage - yes (no gaming, no GPS, no NFC)

Calls and sms only - of course NOT!

Did you look at my screenshots carefully? I spent some time (12hrs) on WiFi/Internet too. Using s5 for calling only doesn't really make sense (there are much cheaper phones for that) ;)
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Fireworkerfp:
And what is Your configuration?
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Many40:
Here you are:

[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Many40:
Thanks. Yes, I am on the stock battery.

Generally, it is all about how intensively you use your phone but of course rom and kernel tweaks help a lot.

Also important is to monitor kernel/partial wakelocks - especially to avoid those which may prevent the phone going to deep sleep (I'm using BetterBatteryStatts for that).

beta4

Hi guys,

after some time, a new beta for you - beta4.

This is supposed to be the last beta before I release a stable release, and continue adding new functions in a new beta.

So here we go:

Version 1.0-beta4

28.04.2015

Fix issue with schedulers for ext. SD memory not sticky (requires also latest Boeffla-Config App 2.1.75)

Flashable recovery zip file is now signed, i.e. you can use signature verification in TWRP or CWM recoveries

Minor SELinux improvements (fix memory leak and make it less chatty)

I flashed the last official version for MM, works fine for a couple of days till that nagging screen came up that says mpdecision binary can't be found or turned-off. What could be causing this? I also tried reflashing the stock firmware that I have like what that warning within the app advised me, and also for the boeffla kernel, but that nagg still persist.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] andip71:
Then something removed the mpdecision binary again.

If you are using 100% official stock rom, it should never happen.

Thing is: This is an important warning, as hotplugging is disabled for you without mpdecision. So try to investigate what removed it. It cannot happen magically...

If you are on a custom rom or flashed another custom kernel in between, you know what to do.

I did (not all) as I was told. While downloading stock rom I left the phone on its QI charging station - ended up in bootlooping through the whole night while charging. Next morning my phone was extremly hot and lost mobile connectivity.

Now I tried to install stock mm, which booted up but had fc for the UI and no mobile

Next Phoenix 11 with matching modem/bootloader - same result: no mobile

Looking into settings - mobile networks of Phoenix11 the phone says: insert SIM card to access network services

Now my question: Is it possible that the overheating hardbricked my mobile connection or is it a software problem I can't see?

But you can extract file boot.img from the rom tar. This img can be flashed in twrp then to restore stock kernel.
