Hello guys. I just want know that which is USB 3 port for charging galaxy s3. My pc have 4 USB port at back & 2 USB port on front. What which is the USB 3 port for USB charging on siyah kernal. Thanx
What? Use any port on your computer to charge your phone, kernel doesn't matter. Sorry if I'm mistaken just confused by your 'question'.
your PC needs to have USB 3.0 ports.. USB 2.0 Ports won't be of any help if you are planning on using 900mA for USB charging on siyah's kernel.

No. Charge with any USB port is normal for everyone. But with siyah kernal & with USB 3 port it increase the charging speed which is not normal. Its great benefit with USB 3 port.

Don't shoot me if i'm wrong but I believe the colour of the usb 3.0 ports are blue instead of the white used on usb 2.0 ports.

Well in that case yeah, USB 3.0 will charge faster than 2.0, but it doesn't matter what kernel you use, 5v 900ma is standard for usb 3.0 vs 500ma for 2.0. Unless the phone is restricted to a certain charge rate.
Also, I've been using siyah kernel for some time now and do notice even with USB 2.0 if you set it to 900ma usb charge it does charge faster. About 1% a minute compared to 1% per 5 minutes.
thanx all. I confirmed & my problem solved.
Need to set something or simply plug into USB3?
hello, I'm new user of custom fw (Criskelo ROM) on my gt-i9300 and I'm using syiah kernel, so I would like to use charging by USB3 on my PC.
Is it needed to set something in phone or faster charging will be automatic?
You have to set the USB charge current in STweaks. 900mA would be safe
Ok. Thanx, but where can I find STweaks? I tried to google it, but didnt find it....

It's installed when flashing Siyah. Look in the App drawer..

Yeah, I've found it on googleplay - its called system tweaks, and when Ive instaled it, the icon is called STweaks I've set max usb current to 900mA
Hey guys have just started using siyah kernel with Omega 27 and have set the charge rate to max for both USB and A/C. Can this harm my laptop at all if I have USB 3.0? What other settings are you guys using to get the most out of your phones?
As far as I know Siyah has noob-proofed these so you dont damage your phone. You should be fine maxing these out, I have

I need OTG with charging to run an external DAC for long periods without killing my battery.
Anyone know of ROMS or mods that can toggle a forced OTG with charging state? Or, the resistor specs to trigger the state in the stock kernel?

Hey guys
i was just wondering if enabling the force fast charge option would affect the battery life in the long run in any way ?
Thank you for your time
I don't think so.
It just disables the usb functionality so the usb port can give the same power as a wallcharger.
Correct me if i'm wrong.

Fast charge just forces android to use the input source of power to be AC, so battery won't suffer, what can suffer is the source you getting the power from, if you have a docking station designed for 500mA power and you force fast charge, that it's usually 1000mA, you might short it's lifespan, also make sure your USB ports can output 1000mA.
Hello, i have a question why is the mA changing while charging? why it cant be still in the highest point
Hello,
Unless the kernel has charging current hack, it'll be dynamic; faster when screen is off and slower to not charging at all when you're using it.
