It's better if you start with 729/245. I'm not sure whether the max freq of 768 is supported by your phone. If you find that 729/245 is stable, then try to experiment with higher OCs.

Personally, I feel that 729 and 768 do not have much difference other than the quadrant and benchmark scores. Both are sufficient to make the phone run smooth for normal usage.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] vador9:
It should be supported, since the 35 kernels, i only panic at 806, everything lower is stable. Back in the 32 more than 748 meant panic. However 729 is ok, a few mhz of clock will not overdrive the phone as it's still a **** architecture and the loss of battery is huge, it's not worth it.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] enobano:
Well that didn't solve it either. Might be worth trying with other kernels

CM7 Mik 6.6.1 + Franco latest kernel 16 Aug .. I can't zoom camera above 2.5x

3x and 4x not working !!
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] gkarthik16:
Lucky you. I've used both the .32 and .35 kernels extensively and find that my phone gets unstable at anything above 768. I tried setting it to 787 after seeing some posts here and all I got was frequent crashes. It varies from phone to phone.

Also, I think this is going off-topic. Let's end it here. :)
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Ok. The camera sucks why do you need more zoom? I didnt touch camera code so I dunno.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] DaXmax:
Please dunt complain here, the camera is fine... Only the zoom is only up to 2.5x, complain in cm7 thread...

My phone didn't start charging until I rebooted. Weird.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] logo_32:
CPU throttle..!!

Kernel panics at frequencies beyond 729 for my phone... I guess wht karthik says is right... its a phone related thing.. some might be stable at 806 while others (like mine) gets unstable at anything beyond 729..!! Be it which ever governer or what ever the min freq..!! And yup its gettin a lil off topic..!!

Summing it up.. For all new users.. 'Don't over clock your CPU beyond its acceptable limits and you're all set to experience the wonders of android..!!'

P.S.: To a normal user, a frequency of 729 too would be sufficient to make the phone run the best..!! Self experienced..!!

P.P.S.: Ill be testing the new matt rom (2.3.5) now with your kernel (2.3.5 and v19.2) cause this 6.6.1 + ginger kernel seems to be pretty stable for now (though even i faced the battery display issue once as the other users did, but im sure it will be rectified in the next update.. :D)..!! Will be back with a report soon..!!
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] enobano:
Anyone managed to resolve this battery updating bug somehow ? Tried everything but no Luck so far :(
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] GonDr:
Thanks Franco for kernel, its amazing and never mind about camera zoom, but battery view not fixed, but its not problem, thanks again, keep good work on.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dryhte:
Hey guys what's this battery bug about? I've tried smartass and scary schedulers and my battery level decreases nicely... or so it seems.

(stock 2.3.3 with latest Franco kernel)
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Vonpire:
I don't know about that but the only bug I experienced with roms based on stock GB 2.3.3 is that if you charge phone when it's off it will show the charging animation and when the screen goes off it will not be on again with power button. So you are charging offline but you can't see how is the charging.

And YES that's a kernel BUG.

I'll don't want to hear something like "why do you charge phone offline anyway??"

Simply cause it's faster. I reverted to Paolo Kernel which doesn't have this bug.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Bec de Xorbin:
Charge it in custom recovery.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] gkarthik16:
As far as I heard, Mik intentionally removed the charging-while-off feature. When you plug it in, the phone switches ON. Not an issue except for a select few.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] gkarthik16:
The battery display bug (battery % not updating) is fixed in the latest version of this kernel. See the changelog in the first post.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] enobano:
I've got the latest one and no it's not fixed not for me at least. I'm rebooting my phone 3-4 times a day so I can see how much is left. Even the battery widgets aren't working
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] gkarthik16:
Try with a clean wipe and re-flash the ROM and kernel if possible. I think many guys reported the bug to be fixed with this latest update. So try it If it still persists and many people report the same, then franco may look into it when he finds time. Let's drop this discussion here and pls update back if you're facing it after a clean wipe.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Vonpire:
Hmm, I'm not using the Mik cm roms. I am on custom rom based on official lg GB 2.3.3 :)

With Paolo kernel and same rom I don't have that issue, only with this kernel, so it's kernel (intentionally or not) that causes it, not ROM.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dryhte:
...but not for everyone, as I said before, I don't see any battery related bugs...
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dr.notor:
It has been repeatedly stated that there is no such issue unless people set insanely low minimum CPU freqs...
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Thanks. I already gave up on repeating the same things over and over again.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] DaXmax:
Maybe u should set big big words on the first page... Btw, ur kernel rocks with kickass tweaks by zeppelinrox...

To all those who complain about battery life!

People, I did a test today with my smartphone running Mik's 6.6.1 and this kernel to test the maximum battery life I can get out of this. Results are astonishing. I used the smartphone as just a simple phone. No data, no wifi, no gaming. I'm just sharing the details of my experiment. I don't claim it to be scientific and all-encompassing one, and neither it was meant to be so.

Let me tell you : I needed none of the tweaks flooding XDA with titles like Uber, Soooooooooppppppaaaaarrrrr, Ultimate, Crapload, blah blah blah for this. Just Mik's rom and this kernel. I do not vouch for the utility of the scripts floating around here, neither do I say they are useless. YMMV if you have them running.

The finer details :

CPU Settings : Smartass 600-245

Compcache disabled ( Generally leave it enabled, but turned it off to get max battery. Many are of the opinion that it is not necessary for our phone as it already has good amount of RAM available. Will have to test this with benchmarks, though benchmarks don't always translate to actual real-world usage.)

Sync off, Wifi off, Access to location using wifi off (this actually saves a bit of battery), brightness @15%, a few widgets including fb and twitter in homescreen.

I've managed a drop of an amazing 20% in about 25 hours of usage. It was NOT in airplane mode as you can see. Just ignore the maps usage. It used a CPU usage time of only about 2 mins as you can see. I did it just to check whether there was any maps-related bug. And all there was related to it was a false detail in the battery usage screen. Mind you, my battery display didn't get stuck, as it used to get occasionally in a particular version of this kernel.

The reason I'm posting this is that I'm tired of so many users complaining about battery life and some others defending against it without proper proof/evidence. I don't usually care about my battery life as long as it gets past 18 hours of heavy usage. Mostly 2g/3g based browsing and other random stuff. A bit of gaming ~ 30 mins. And Mik's ROM has been on my device since I got the device itself. Didn't bother to play with stock as I had already seen it in my friends' phones. And it has provided me with excellent battery life all along, more so with Franco's kernels.

FACT: Different usage scenarios result in different battery usage results.

So, a piece of advice:

When you say anything about your battery life, include details about the ROM, kernel, tweaks, governors, CPU clock speeds, battery usage graphs, and more importantly, betterbatterystats log.

The screenshots are attached :D I don't think betterbatterystats log would be required here. But attached anyway. Not a lot of useful info in this case :P

@Franco: This should probably help in lessening the spate of battery related complaints. A separate thread for this seemed to be an overkill :P
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dr.notor:
That is a lost cause... people post zillion times about something that is stated in big bold underlined red letters in FAQs on ROM/kernel threads. Reading/using one's brain apparently hurts for some. :rolleyes:

+999.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] enobano:
is 320 insanely minimum?? i tried with 600 minimum too and didnt change a thing. hell i've tried minimum everything up too 806 and no change
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dr.notor:
Come with a way to reproduce and debug the issue or simply move to another kernel. Moaning about it over and over again will not fix anything. It works for me, it works for franco, it works for other people. Issues that cannot be reproduced cannot be fixed.

Sucks to be you. :p

P.S. Oh, and in case you tried a different min. freq. for 5 seconds, no, that will not fix your issue. Go wipe your battery stats and keep the freqs at a sane value for a couple of hours at least.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] eagledipesh:
Thanks for the quick reply, i am fine, will wait for the next update :)
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] andy572:
Just a short info about the bug with misplaced screen:

i figured just out, that the problem isnt on framebuffer - screenshots via ddms are fine,

that means framebuffer driver is working as expected. problem seems to be in the UI from CM7 gingerbread

... now its some difficult to find the bug, all HTC and Samsung devices are working without this bug :(
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Thats really not good news, it will be harder to figure out than if the problem was on the kernel!
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] sweetbinodray:
yeah, You right. Even when i was reading some scripts from CM7 i saw few lines are different from official gingerbread in memory address. But the problem is all HTC and Samsung devices are working fine as you have said. But solution is, manually configure new kernel's memory stuff. So Franco has some pain full night ahead...
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] sweetbinodray:
Best of luck then...Hope Mik is working too and he can come up with some better ideas.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Samhain77:
Franco I think you should have 2 branches of this kernel. One for CM and another for original GB

<Sent from my Lg O1 with Tapatalk>
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] andy572:
and one for froyo, and one for eclair ... and not forget: one for ice cream^^
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] sweetbinodray:
I just want the ice cream part but without kernel. chocolate flavor will do for me.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] sarfaraz1989:
correct me if i am wrong but the stock unrooted gb has no misplaced screen bug..I think its more prominent with this kernel ..

P.s : Hoping to see som franco magic soon..btw why do we get so low FPS in gb even though it was said that 2.3 will bring graphics updates ??
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] ert69:
Could someone point me out to a flashable Gb rom based on official GB for P500?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] :
Could you PLEASE read the sticky thread?!?!?!
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] mik_os:
LG made a workaround somewhere in android sources, this is not clear way.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] ert69:
DUDE thanks.. I honestly forgot that thread existed.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] flaviopac:
(Edit)

Sorry, made a mistake while posting
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] sweetbinodray:
Boy..as first post suggested there is no bug in official Rom. It's happening with CM7 only.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Turducken:
Potentially ignorant question, can we use the zram initializer from the .32 kernel?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] socialdistortion:
I tested both the pre-releases over the last couple of days. The phone is definitely much much smoother but the battery drain is very high compared to stock kernal.

There seems to be lots of wakeups even when the screen is off. And mobile data usage causes battery drain.

Phone @ 729/245 smartass on v20g 2.3.3
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I know, this kernel sucks ass, LG done nothing to improve battery life even with people that are paid to do their jobs... Next pre-release should be much better, already added a ton of patches for PM.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Ok power management is now fixed, battery is once again pretty good. To follow my kernel changes live check my github account.

Things to look for in the next release:

- BFS added. Need user input on this one to decide if it stays with BFS or CFS + autogroup patch

- Battery is awesome again

- Lots of small fixes everywhere to make the kernel stable and faster

- Better memory management

- Less debug ****

- Updated to 2.6.35.13 from upstream
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] rapharias:
I'm definitely going to try stock 2.3 from LG when you post new release.

Thanks for your nonstop work!
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] RevengeFNF:
I got the bug all the time with 729/245 scary. Scary puts the cpu at 122Mhz while screen is off.

With 729/245 Smartass i got the bug very rare times.

Gonna try 729/320 Smartass now.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Vonpire:
Maybe you guys don't read my post or read badly...

I am not having the battery stats issue not updating with phone running!

The thing I reported is that when i charge phone with it off is shows the charging and then when screen goes off if you press the power button it won't go on again to show how is the charging. In fact it doesn't do nothing at all. You have to keep long pressing and then the phone turns on and start booting.

Please read carefully and don't state things I didn't report here.

Thanks.

P.S. - If people don't care about this not my fault. I just warned Francisco for the issue. As as I said Paolo Kernel don't have that issue, with exactly same rom. If it's by purpose than it's ok, but report it on first page of thread.

Silly answers like "charge it in recovery" or things that has nothing to do with what i reported could/should be avoided I guess ;)
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dr.notor:
Yeah, that "issue" is by design. Tough cookies if you do not like it.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Vonpire:
I don't like it nor dislike it. It's indifferent. Just reported here as is supposed to be done... (or not?).

But, is there any reason at all for disabling that? Kernel improvement? Or just cause you guys think it "sucks" ? Wouldn't be better to let kernel have that "issue" :)

Cheers
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dr.notor:
Disabling what? Noone is disabling anything, this is how LG designed it. As you noted, this happens on stock-based ROMs. Go flash a stock ROM with stock kernel via KDZ and you will get the same thing. The stupid animation is shown for a couple of minutes, then the screen turns off and that is it. You can boot the phone, you cannot get the animation back. (It shows POS "information" anyway with no useful battery info.)

BTW, people who mentioned there is no off-mode charging on mik's ROMs are right, you plug the USB cable and the phone boots - but how is that related to what you posted?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] enobano:
I've tried that for last 24 hrs since someone else told me that it work for them. I'm not moaning about it in trying to resolve and if u cant u don't have to reply.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Vonpire:
Oh really?!?

So why the hell it works with Paolo Kernels and not with this one?

And yes, it works on two different official based ROMS, so who's mistaken here is you not me, sorry to tell you.

LG Didn't do that by design I guarantee you.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dr.notor:
Go use that kernel, who is stopping you?

I have not been talking about any official-based ROMs, I have been talking about stock virgin LG **** with stock kernel. Go flash it and check. Was that way with Froyo and is still that way with GB.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dr.notor:
How on earth is someone expected to know how long have you been trying something and what you have tried when the only thing you post is the moaning? I have posted a suggestion to bump your min. cpu freq., you have posted nothing about trying that - neither here, not here, not even here or here or here. All I read in all those posts is "oh noes, it no workie for me, t3h suxxxx".

Then I go and suggest the freqs thing and get a reply in about 5 minutes that you tried with different ones and it did not help. So what other response you expect. Trying it for 5 minutes is not enough. And you can only be angry at yourself because you need to post an actually useful feedback and description of a problem, including the steps you have tried and which did not work, among others. Which is something you miserably fail to do.

You get horrible battery drains with Paolo kernel on 6.6.1, you get broken battery stats updates with this one - well maybe the battery just hates you personally? Or maybe the battery is just fscked up and you should buy a new one?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] kokesh:
Car charger

Just want to report, that my car-USB charger doesn't do anything with the phone. Wall LG charger works perfect.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dr.notor:
In case you use

as stated in your signature, you have reported in a wrong thread, because this kernel is for Mik's CM7 6.6+ and stock(-based) GB only.

In case you are actually using something else, like this kernel, then you could maybe explain why are you suggesting that your issue is a specific franco.Kernel .v1-16082011 bug and not an incompatible car-USB charger.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Vonpire:
WRONG, WRONG and wrong. My wife stock p500 lg froyo 2.2.1 non rooted, like it were when out of store, is charging off right now and behaviour is correct. Screen goes off and I press power button and screen wake up showing charging animation
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dr.notor:
Wonderful. Then get the miraculous Froyo 2.2.1 phone from your wife and quit ranting here. Enough of this OT nonsense.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Vonpire:
Wtf? Are you being silly by purpose?

My lg p500 is "miraculous" too in froyo, javali, gg roms....

All p500 Ive seen are miraculous either...

Yours appears to be the one non-miraculous.

If you dont know why let it for people who can get it.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] fserve:
@Vonpire, i know what are you talkin about, just the green battery that shows when smartphone is off and we plug to charge.

It's not a big deal for me.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] dr.notor:
Once again, I was talking about stock Froyo/GB. All I have is stock 2.2.2 and stock 2.3.3, they both do the same, you get the animation once and that is it. They also bundle that wonderful feature that you cannot boot the phone until battery has been charged to a certain level (was 10% IIRC.) That is a wonderful one especially when you need to make/expect an urgent call, everyone loves it.

Now, go and enjoy the sexy battery animation with your wife, it must be pretty exciting since you cannot live without it it seems. Well, everyone has their obsessions, this one is pretty harmless. So, go use another kernel, we can live with that.

Bye. :p
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Vonpire:
Dude...

Im not even comment that. Your comments are too childish to even care for. You still dont get it, no prob were done here. Ive never experienced battery related bugs with other kernels, (or wifi,camera,etc etc) so I am glad i reverted to the other...

bye :P
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I only have one thing to add, paolo got his kernel patches from me so ultimately you're still using my kernel. Have fun ;)
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Vonpire:
Francisco, I really appreciate your work as I appreciate all other devs work. Your kernel is amazing I have no complains about it. Not even the "issue" by design that we're talking about.

I only wanted for you to realize this different behavior between kernels cause it's obvious that It is there. And point is : With my actual ROM i flash Paolo Kernel v5 or v6 - battery charging with phone turned off animation appears then screen goes off and i press power button and screen with animation goes on again.

With yours it just appears animation then screen goes off and then power button does nothing.

I just wanted to tell you but apparently you already knew it and is this way by design. I think that's because of cm since this way you can get the kernel running for both roms. (Am I right?)

So, there was no need for dr.notor doubt of me, cause what I have said to him it's true at least with stock froyo and any gg rom based on v20g on 3 different LGP500 phones.

BTW Last Paolo kernel v6 suck big ;) Very laggy. Must be for VSYNC enabled he put in it. Your 2.6.35.14 is way better.

[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] voyager20021:
Dont see the use of that.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] voyager20021:
The battery charging animation while charging in offmode could be useful if you dont have enough time to fully charge the battery and you want to know approximately how much juice you have before you go. Dont care if its this or that kernel or ROMs fault, but it could be of use to have it.

Also, as i recall, had that option available on stock froyo ROM when bought the phone.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] voyager20021:

I have No - Frill CPU control set at 710~122 interactiveX - I\O vr.

I have noticed that there is continous CPU utilization by MediaServer... apprx 20% usage, i am reporting this because the usage is specific to this kernel (cannot replicate on different kernel), the phone is not used for more that 2 hours.
