11-25 GB kernel

Could you please post a dropbox download link for the 11-25-11 GB kernel? His file share only has the most recent. I looked through and couldn't find it anywhere. I would like to try it if you think it has the best performance.

Thanks!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] nmoreman:
Franco,

I just wanted to say thank you so much for the work you do for the community. I read on one thread, can't find it now (it was late) and there was some snipping from the general public.

There are many new users on here who obviously don't read, research, think, or have that capability due to some requests, maybe demands, and complaints.

I cannot imagine the amount of time you and other developers spend on these projects, for free as hobbies, challenges, or whatever reasons you do. Then to share, answer and keep updated.

I am not a high tech person, but over the years have learned a lot, I can usually fix my problems, and enjoy my phones better because of the cutting edge technology you and others share. This is from reading these forums, if in doubt, read, don't download, and don't expect others to fix my crap.

So don't let idiots get to you, and thank you for your time away from your real life.

New Franco kernel. Works with NS4G, as I am running it now. For change log please reference his thread in the NS forums. This kernel as of right now is no frills. DO NOT ASK him to add things to this ie oc settings, voodoo anything, bln, bld, blah blah. He may add things once this is stable and running as perfect as HE sees fit. If this thread moves along and people start asking for this and that please reference them back to this post. Good likely hood he may not update this thread. You can keep yourself up to date by checking his thread in the NS forums and I will post new builds as they are made available. Go get it.

What should be the safe steps for flashing a new kernel ?

Do i have to make any backups of EFS folder ?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Braneless:
All you need to do is wipe cache and dalvik cache, then flash the kernel.

Btw, I've been running the cfs kernel since last night and it's been fantastic. The smoothest I've tried and deep idle + the other mods are working great.

I've had minor niggling issues with other kernels I've tried, but this one seems absolutely perfect so far. Thanks Francisco!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] formula84:
So i love this kernel, I have been running all versions since released, Just wanted to say THANK YOU for all the hard work you put into this kernel.

As the CFS runs great the below is not a big deal but I would like to run the BFS as Scrolling does seem smoother (could be placebo).

I have tried each release of the BFS and all have produced data issues for me, I am on NS4G if that matters, Whether its wifi or 3g the icons stay lit up and data says its on according to the toggle but I get no connectivity. I have tried Airplane mode, data toggle, etc. nothing works except for a reboot. Is there anything I can look at settings wise that might be causing this?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fr4nk1yn:
seems snappy enough even at 1ghz. unfortunately my phone dislikes, the cfs version at least, this immensely. lockups with a resulting bootloop that requires a reflash. calk me a masochist but I've done it 5 times.

Francisco , went to enable max freq in terminal . Tells me non existant . Running the 11/08 update . What may i be missing ?

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] formula84:

On another note: I am happy to report that I solved my boot loop problems. After stalking the thread in the GSM section, I took a look at my init.d and cleaned up some crud. Flashed nov 8ths BFS and I'm currently booted up. Time to play. Matrixs kernel wasn't liking me when i was trying liveoc/deep idle/maxfreq

Edit: @formula - check the last couple pages of the thread at the time of this writing.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] zackandethan:

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Sputnikk23:
odd... a good portion of apps now just refuse to load. hang or FC me back to home screen.

crap. that includes dolphin & market. :(

data is working fine as regular browser works.

Edit: cleared cache/data for both these apps, recovery, rewiped dalvik/cache/batt, fix permissions, reboot. so far so good.

Edit #2: HOLY MOLY! Good thing I cleared cache/data on market! I had all these broken market links from restoring apps when reflashing. I knew this because I wasn't getting updates as often from market. When I went back in after wiping markets data/cache - 35 apps wanted updating. Good to know.

Edit #3: Gawd this is awesome. As long as GPS works when I get outside I am SET. I can't quit just swiping screens back and forth. It feels like running your hands along silk.. mmmmmmm

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] method2madness:
Charge fully. Reset battery stats. Drain completely. Charge fully. Reset stats again.

Do this twice and you should be good to go.

If you need help draining, download "battery drainer" from the market. Turn your LED on, set your clock speed to max, temporarily select "performance" profile, and run battery drainer and you should be fully discharged within an hour.

Whenever this happens, I power down the phone, then pull battery, hold power in for 10 sec to drain any power left in the device. Put everything back together and boot up you % will be correct.

Thanks for the post. I was wondering what voltages people are using. Using your post, I set mine (using setcpu and wanting to be safe) to:

1000Mhz=1175mV

800Mhz=1125mV

400Mhz=1000mV

200Mhz=875mV

100Mhz=875m

I also limited my phone to nothing above 800Mhz... I want to see how far I can take this kernel's battery life. So far, with no tweaks, this kernel gets the best battery of them all.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Sputnikk23:
i really need to try cfs just haven't gotten around to it. Phone seems stable, and I think I'm even needlessly iniching up the voltages. Don't think reboots are caused by that anymore.

Seems like the one or two reboots I get a day happen mostly at work where I get piss poor signal.
