"Slow wifi, jb 4.1.2 - Galaxy S III General

Hi all
What is your max wifi internet speeds on the 9300?
For some reason, since moving to jellybean i seem to be locked at 20 mbit.
My S2, and my galaxy tab first gen manages 35-40 mbit om the same connection, S3 stays at 20
I've tried pretty much every different kernel I could find, as well as a number of different roms - same result.
I realize that 20 mbit is not exactly slow for a mobile phone, but i do wonder why the speed is almost cut in half compared to older phones and tablets.
On 4.0.4 firmware, no problems - same result as my other devices.
Anyone experiencing the same? Or have suggestions for a solution?
Thanks!

Installed newest cm10 nightly, problem solved :good:
Now wifi speed is the same as my s2
wtf.

Which roms and kernels you tried? Im using Viking Snowstorm rom and siyah kernal... and i have tried codename android rom too. Does the rom affects or kernel affects the wifi??

Is this happening after u flashed G3Mod kernel? Which version of G3Mod do u use? 1.7 is the most stable kernel of G3Mod. Check if the same happens on G3Mod 1.7 Lite.
Im using 1.5 extreme. It was ok when i was running jpd but i flashed jps then re-flashed g3 mod and it turns off 2 to 3 times a day

Well as far as I can recollect, 1.5 Extreme has an OCed bus which causes random freezes even if you use a lower CPU frequency. I suggest you to use the latest version of G3Mod kernel.
I will give it a try. So is 1.7 the latest

This has been happening with me ever since Kyrillos 3.0...
I always thought it was a problem with the battery just slipping out because it is quite loose. I put a piece of paper on the bottom to make sure it's jammed up into the connection part at the top. I tried using Blu-tak once under the battery but didn't like the idea.
Im starting to think that as soon as we start mucking about with our phones we have nowt but problems. Im going to get another phone so i have one to use and one to mess around with.

Perhaps the problem is with ota build. Most here are rooted with custom rom. Are you by chance running a custom rom or the stock one that was sent over the air?

phone is default updated OTA
Then perhaps you can root and install a custom rom. It seems to me when I download a custom rom ota, its more likely to be corrupt. If its stock you want, it's available here. Better yet you might try Pete's Bugless Beast- stock with some additional enhancements. That way you get the stock a stock experience ... but better

It was the other way round for me, I've only had the rebooting issue on my 9023 when I was using a couple of different cm roms, and it went away when I went back to stock. Have tried some other non cm roms, but not for long enough to show any effects.
No reboot, fortunately
That's an issue with 2.3.1, just update to 2.3.4 ota and it should be gone

The CM reboots and sod are know bugs for CM and many have reported the problem stems from the flashing alternative kernel. I've been on GLADOS CFS @ 1.4 for several days now and have had absolutely no problems.

I've never had any random reboots on my NS4G...nor have I even heard of this being an issue with the NS line, at all. I've been flashing new roms/kernels like crazy for the last 3 months I've been using this phone...the longets I think I've gone without a single flash is probably 4 days....and I've never had a single hardware issue of any kind These phones seem really rock-solid to me!!
They've turned a Samsung hater into a Samsung fan overnight!!! I'd buy a GN in a heartbeat if I hadn't JUST bought my NS4G lol

Best kernel & ROM combination

Hey,
I am currently running cm10 b5 but I have some issues with wlan reconnection and sleep mode. What is in your view the best jb kernel and ROM combination out there?

I've been running the Team Eos nightlies and found build 73 with K.A.T. kernel run's great! :good:
I run TeamEos and mostly it is good, get some browser seizures but nothing I can't live with
I'll give it a go....
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
I also recommend Team EOS JB nightlies with KAT kernel. I've been using build 78 with kat 47b without problems.
Long time lurker here, finally signed up, so please be gentle.
I've tried almost every JB ROM here, and I do agree EOS seems to be the best. Folks seem to be getting varying performance levels b/w the 74 + KAT builds and the latest 78 build. I'm on EOS 78 now and it seems "a little" slower than 74 + KAT, but it's hardly noticeable.
I used the KAT kernel for New, but still on cm10. The wifi issue seems gone.
One thing keeping me Form EOS is, that GPS is not working?

Hmmmm.... I did a quick test and GPS was slow to lock, but finally came up for me on EOS, I had to go outside and for extra measure removed the leather protector thingy. I'd say it took 3 minutes to lock in.
I use raymanfx's cm10 b1 + kat kernel.
With last versions of cm10 the wifi is weak and kat kernel is not supported.
Battery Drain
I'm currently using Revolver and stock kernel. I've ran before JB of some team with it's kernel((it may be guevor))(bad memory haha)
Does anyone have a clue on how to flash a kernel on b80 transformer and don't have battery drainage?
Whenever I flash a custom kernel, the processor keeps working, even when the screen is turned off.
Can it be the cpu governor?
Yeah,I noticed the weaker wifi too

Good battery life kernel?

Currently running the sabre tooth kernel, runs very quick - but device seems to die rather quickly. Any other kernel that people can reccomend for the WiFi nexus7 that offers better battery life with minimal lag? Current ROM is also the sabre tooth latest build.

Try Franco.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29990763
I'm using M-Kernel and I would say that this is a very good kernel in terms of battery life and performance, although this is not geared for performance per se, but this kernel is more of a balance between the two. Other users reportedly are happy with the Omega Kernel, its still relatively new, but the reviews are good. Go try them out.
I like franco and lean kernels. To be honest, I cannot really decide between these two. The best is to try them both. They are very well tuned, so there's absolutely no need to overclock - this is very important to preserve battery.
Anyone able to post a link to the Franco kernel? The one in his thread is not loading the webpage where it is housed.

There's also a thread in one of the subforums that lists most of the current kernels and runs each one through the same tests to rank them by speed and battery life.
M and Franco seem to consistently be the top two for battery, but I wonder if that will change if Clemsyn's is ever updated.

4.3 reduced antutu score or its just me..

K guys.. I am not sure if its 4.3 or something else.. Can someone confirm.. I used to get 18000+ on my 4.2 n4 and over 24000 with faux overclocking kernels for 4.2
Now i am getting 14000 - 16000.. With 4.3..

different kernel works and reacts differently on different devices and different roms. test it out to find YOUR perfect fit.

Try the S4 dalvik patch that's floating around here. Boosted my score to 20k+ on PA 3.99 with stock PA kernel at 1512/1512.
Using this combo as my daily driver since a week and no problems so far.

What kind of numbers did you get before the mod?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Around 16-17k if I remember correctly. Also don't forget that heat throttling is pretty aggressive on the N4. So make sure your device has cooled down before the next run.
Pro tip: put your N4 onto a cold ceran stove when benchmarking. They're made to conduct heat efficiently and will keep your device cool
Well I wouldn't give those numbers too much credit...
they represent more the settings that you enter, than device performance.
I for instance use the latest franco Kernel. With the settings I use every day (interactive governor, default clocks), I get arount 15-18k in antutu. But the device feels as snappy as hell in normal usage and gaming.
If I switch to performance governor, ramping the minimal and maximal cpu clock up to 1512MHZ while raising the cpu throttling from 65 to 90° I reach antutu scores in the range of 20-22k.
But I obviously would never ever use these settings every day.
That beeing said, these numbers do not really represent how the devices behaves in every day usage, which is much more important to me than any number, a benchmark puts out.

I am not trying to reach higher antatu numbers.. what I was looking for is to test out which kernel and what kernel settings gives me max power...

I have a couple of questions:
It's your phone still working like it should?
Do you really care about the scores you get to be able to enjoy your N4?
Do you think the scores of benchmark really say everything about your phone?
If you compare a S4 or M7 with a N4, and in one test (by chance) you get the same scores, do you think your N4 has the same power as a S4 or M7?
Stop worrying about benchmark scores, I used to be like that bench-marking all the time, at the end I just got tired of it!!!
Now I just enjoy my phone the way it is.
Good luck!!!

Benchmarks are useless, its how the device feels when using it what matters.
