I'm on Oxygen rom 2.3.1 As you can see also I'm on a 4g. I don't know if that makes any difference either? I also wanted to add that BFS just blazes on my phone. I had a Evo since launch before I picked this up several months back and BFS's hated that phone so I stayed away from them when I got my neXus but I had to try it since you made one and I have had nothing but great luck with all your kernels on here even since the first one you dropped. BFS on this kernel on my phone made a huge difference in speed and snappiness and it was already amazing. Anyways I am rambling and I think I got some brown schtuff on my nose.

[Nexus S Android Development] franciscofranco:
Nah no rumble at all. I guess I'll just have to drop BFS and CFS builds, more people asked me to add BFS back and for the people with sdcard and data/wifi issues can switch back and forth as they see fit.

By the way, this is targeted mainly to the portuguese users, my kernel work has been referenced in one of the biggest informatic and technology websites here in Portugal, so I wrote an article for it: http://pplware.sapo.pt/smartphones/android/como-tornar-o-seu-nexus-s-num-super-android-4/

Be sure to drop a comment there :)
[Nexus S Android Development] chinopski:
solved my problem with openvpn. thanks a lot franco. learning something new from this site everyday :D
[Nexus S Android Development] FL0OD:
Also noticed, which doesn't make any sense to me cause I don't know enough for it to but with the BFS kernel my signal strength is better than normal. Sort of the opposite of others on here. Hmmmm?

When i went to sleep the phone was at 60 % Batttery....when i woke up this morning the battery had dropped down to only 39 %. What a bummer...

i am using latest nscollab and francos latest kernel.

What could be the problem here ? Also, in the battery info, it says that 7% battery was eaten up by phone idle!! Somebody please help me here.....thanks
[Nexus S Android Development] mike216:
I'm also on 02 I9020t nscollab and in not getting good deepidle sleep either but when the screen is on and I'm using it the battery holds up better than previous versions and ram management is great on this one I just hope I have to go through a couple charge cycles to get good deep sleep stats once again

[Nexus S Android Development] :
I've been having the same problem. If your phone won't enter deep idle it will sit at maximum frequency while the screen is off. For some, opening and closing the camera app solves the problem, but this doesn't work for me (9020t Carbon ROM 01nov 02nov kernel).

I will try Oxygen next to see if I can get this to work. Excellent kernel though, and congrats on being published Franco!

Have you tried the camera trick? You need to open/close the camera app each time you reboot for didle to work.
[Nexus S Android Development] ro_explorer:
So ... I was haveing issues with my sdcard mounting on nov 1 kernel (it eventually worked after a reboot or so). After that everything went smooth.

With the nov 2 kernel, the phone seems to be more battery hungry (even if it goes to deep idle, according to the logs). More than that, I have a small issue with my wifi connection that will loose connectivity (the signal strenght is the same, but the phone will not go out on the internet) and I have to turn it off and on again to work properly.

The kernel has everything default, except the governor which has been set to conservative.
[Nexus S Android Development] roshga:
every time i reboot or each time im locking my screen?
[Nexus S Android Development] Tzorg:
For me is every time I reboot, screen off doesn't seem to disable it, even though it looks like didle wasn't on all night for me, so maybe the trick stops working after a while? I'm still testing and will report my findings.
[Nexus S Android Development] al_madd:
It is only me, or no report having SOD?

I have 5-7 times SOD...huhu

[Nexus S Android Development] lukappaseidue:
Hi Francisco here I'm to explain what's happening.

Abstract: Last night, before going to bed at about midnight by ClockworkMod I loaded your kernel released Nov. 2. start to charge the phone and just get to 100% (I've seen figures only cosmetic) unplug the charger do I calibrate the battery.

I set using SetCPU MIN FREQ at 400 MHz and SMARTASS/V2 as GOVERNOR.

Do not use Facebook, Twitter or other programs that suck the battery. WIFI off.

wake up, unlock the screen of the phone and the battery indicator shows 92%.

I get a few phone calls, and I make a few checks with the market for system updates. the battery is now 78%.

I have the feeling that DeepIdle is not working. I tried using Terminal Emulator but nothing appears.

I used

adb logcat> logcat.txt

* Daemon not running. starting it now *

* Daemon started successfully *

Unable to open log device '/ dev / log / main': No such file or directory

Where am I doing wrong?
[Nexus S Android Development] ellesshoo:
I have sod problems as well. CM7 #241 i9020a
[Nexus S Android Development] Flying Fox:
For me to activate deepidle opening an closing the cam is necessary after each reboot. No problem at all - but easy to forget about :)

i nealry had a whole day running fine with deepidle

but just 5 mins ago i checked and when i press the power button the screen didn't come back on.

that kinda tells me that deepidle caused sleep of death?

when i had it off that never happens to me..

any suggestions to counter this?

I am on NSCollab again with latest kernel...done a fresh install everything from scratch and GPS doesn't wanna know what the word lock means..Any one else experiencing the same issue!?
[Nexus S Android Development] N@th_OC:
Hi Franco,

i know it's a lot to ask but can you, like mathkid95 and Netarchy make two kernel?

One CFS & one BFS.

because I really really like your work and I also like to use CFS and BFS kernel.

And my phone is really better with a BFS kernel.

So....

Thank you.

bugfixes from nov 1 version vs nov 2 version

hey franco, i would just like to ask if the bugfixes included in the nov2 is very significant compared to the nov1 version?

im thinking of sticking with the nov 1 version since i dont experience any issue with that version.

and how do i know if im having issues with mounting the sd card. i read that the reason for having the nov 2 version is to fix the wifi and sd card mounting. I dont think i have issues with wifi but i cant determine if im having problems with sd card mounting.

im using nscollab rom (which i believe is cyanogen based rom) and i have i9023 nexus s. 400 min, 800 max, -50mV on both frequencies.

Thanks everyone for the feedbacks and constructive criticism, it's important for improving the kernel.

It seems like deepidle isn't working for a lot of us franco,I tried to open and shut down the camera but no luck and when I look to to see if its enabled it says that it is, 1

Besides that is great but for whatever reason deepidle isn't coming on, thanks

[Nexus S Android Development] :
+1 it's a great kernel, but I've disabled deep idle for now and defected to conservative.

Got it to work on a fresh install of oxygen 2.3.1 after doing the camera thing, but it still stopped working, and wouldn't work at all after a reboot.

(9020t)
[Nexus S Android Development] franciscofranco:
Well that goes beyond my knowledge, I have no idea why that happens, but I'll try the newest bugfix from ezekeel, change few things and see how it goes, I still have a few tricks up my sleeve.
[Nexus S Android Development] jodtalingchan:
But other than that everything works smoothly :) and by the way I like BFS version. If it doesn't overload your work, making both bfs and cfs is greatly appreciated .. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
I know it sounds stupid, but make sure your device isn't plugged in when you do the camera trick. Yesterday when I tried to make deep idle work that's what stopped it, I was doing it while connected to my PC.

As soon as I unplugged it and redid the camera trick everything was smooth sailing and deep idle started working.
[Nexus S Android Development] :
What phone model and ROM are you running this on? Was it a fresh install of the ROM?
[Nexus S Android Development] Flying Fox:
Screen off and unplugged. But even without deepidle and liveoc (still not working for me) that kernel is so snappy, running it at 400/800. Cannot say anything about battery drain yet, but I love this Kernel (using 11/1 ´cause of BFS). Thx!!
[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
Nope, this isn't a fresh install. Just wiped dalvik as usual though and fixed permissions. I recommend you do the same.
[Nexus S Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yes I figured out I should have CFS and BFS avaliable for download.
[Nexus S Android Development] mike216:
I went back to bfs but maybe the last bug fix from Ezekeel prevented deep idle from coming on

This bfs version is great my only problem is I don't know which one I like more

Will patiently hang in there for the next release, I do appreciate everything franco and have all the confidence in you that deepidle bug will be fixed if it isn't already

11/2 kernel is running like a champ on Drew Garen's 2.3.7 release 2 rom with 120% LiveOC, running at 960/480. Loving the kernel and also recommend this rom to anyone that just wants an Extremely stable/fast rom.
[Nexus S Android Development] skitapa:
I have to say that I am very impressed with how you tweaked the BFS build. It feels incredibly snappy. The weird thing is that CFS gives me better numbers when running benchmarks, but BFS still feels better. I also noted turning off dithering, I can overclock 2 nov build on stock voltages to 120 without problems.

Unfortunately I have to agree that deep idle stats show zero for me too. I am not convinced though that deep idle doesn't kick in, because it still shows -2mA during screen off.
[Nexus S Android Development] franciscofranco:
Idle_stats show 0 because of my cpu_idle 3.1 backport, it's not a problem because I know deep_idle is working fine. Although when I revert the 3.1 backport I get a few problems that deep_idle doesn't kick in so I'd rather have 0 idle_stats but everything working like it should. That will be all in the next update, and maxfrequency when screen is off will be disabled by default, users that want that feature just enable it via sysfs setting, but explanation on that will be avaliable in due time :)
[Nexus S Android Development] HeavenlyWinds:
Franco, thanks for new Update, i was getting tons of Wifi and 3G drops and it was getting extremely annoying. I thought it was my nightly version but it was the old version of your Kernel. Updated and now works perfectly.
[Nexus S Android Development] franciscofranco:
Small update again in the first post to accomodate the latest bugfix from Ezekeel plus some other presents. As I got a lot of requests from now on I'll offer both CFS and BFS versions, just use whatever you want the most. Read the changelog too please.
[Nexus S Android Development] Lazat:
Big thanks for the update and also for the BFSversion :D

Do you have a donationlink?

Btw, I'm curious, do you personally run screenoff_maxfreq on or off?
[Nexus S Android Development] franciscofranco:

screenoff_maxfreq

"* 'screenoff_maxfreq' is disabled by default. If you want that behavior write this in the terminal: echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/lazy/screenoff_maxfreq"

If I were to add this to my live oc script, does the order matter? For example could I put it at the end?
[Nexus S Android Development] ciwek90:
is idle_stats and deep idle is enable by default even it stated 0?

and

is there any other script that need to type beside liveoc and screenoff?

Thanks!
[Nexus S Android Development] xmRipper:
Then you have to tell us WHAT are they? What are the meanings, differences?

Probably have incorrect permissions set for the file. Check permissions and make sure "execute" is checked. Better yet, check permissions of other scripts already in init.d and make your script match it.

Well, just benched both CFS and BFS.about 4-5rounds each in the same rom.

CFS about 3400+ points (no oc,just 1000-1000mhz performance in the KelLMSKing MIUI.BFS Gave me about 3200 points..

Although I think in real life BFS is snappier, but not for too much...at least in a clean rom.

I installed cfs over my daily MIUI (the stock english one)+02kernel that was getting slow, and it bring back the speed.

THanks for the great great job.As soon as I can I will donate!
