My condolences.

Can't you change providers?

I thought the one i use here was bad for dropping calls and sometimes interferences would come up, but now i think it's great! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 15israellai:
Just wondering.

A long time ago there were some compatibility issues with CM and some kernels or with CM kernels and some ROMs that led to conflicts.

It's been long since I last heard of such news. How's the compatibility with CM10 and franco now? I might want to try out CM10 M1.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
iirc that wasn't jb dynamically changing things, it was just it not accepting a max once the screen went off. this dynamic interactive is wholly new.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] erezak:
No issue that I'm aware of except the kernel name display in Settings, which is also solved now.

I'm about to include franco in my ROM as well, so I just say - go ahead. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Marcb:
I used to have problems in r246 with my bluetooth car radio...

The connection was fine, but everytime I placed a call, the person on the other side always complained that the sound was horrible, impossible to call someone... and that doesn't happen with the stock kernel...

don't know if the newer kernels have this issue aswell...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flukester69:
Must be something with your Bluetooth because I never have that problem and been using Franco kernel for ages. I use Bluetooth lots.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Terrific, thank you :)

Nah thats not the major commit on r249, https://github.com/franciscofranco/Tuna_JB_pre1/commit/2cb56028ab7bb3aa0e0f3d07d3cd65eb59943346 this one is. Basically the up/down frequencies jump are handled in a separate thread/real time task, instead of a workqueue handler.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Marcb:
Yeah, it might be.... I don't know for sure... I need to make more tests...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Culex316:
How come I constantly see this PVR shrink Page pool 128 Number to scan thing in dmesg? This has always happened with francos kernels but am just curious as to what it is
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flukester69:
Easy test, call your home line. :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
I used bluetooth from my nexus for a call in a car earlier. There was no problem with either of us trying to hear what each other said. Perhaps try repairing the device to your car after making them forget each other

I have flashed the latest nightly kernel r249 512 GPU on paranoid android. But under setting>kernel version its written unavailable. Any idea?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gm007:
Read 2 pages back,erezak's post.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Input_boost is and always was controlled by the PowerHAL since JB was released, so I removed the sysfs option from the governor.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VinceT3:
Just installed latest CM10 Monthly whatever :) I then installed 249 on top and got stuck in an infinite boot loop. I let it sit there for a while, finally decided to pull the battery and it did it again.. so I reinstalled CM10 and I'm running again, but haven't installed the latest kernel since that.. any ideas on how I can help find out what happened?

Edit, battery drained hard during the boot.. from 60+ to 30's
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Don't worry. When that happens a single battery pull does the trick. Only happens occasionally after a kernel re-flash.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jotacorredor:
Im getting an S3 at work and Im giving Nexus to my wife so I think Im flashing cyanongedmod 9 as personally is the best combination I've found so far that has nice additional feautures and great performance (she wont miss JB) so I wonder if milestone 4 for ICS is the best option or should I go with latest nightly available, never used this kernel on ICS so I just wonder..

slds,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VinceT3:
Thanks, I'll give it a shot again. However like I said, I pulled the battery and it did the same thing, so maybe it was just a fluke that happened twice?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hboyer:
really nobody with some help (franco?)

what I want is just some advice on kernel settings/parametrisation - probably?

thanks - i really want to go back to r249 :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsn:
I must agree, it's absolutely more battery friendly.. I commonly got to 45% left at the end of my workday..

Sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less.. But it was quite consistent around the 45% (with BT/WiFi/Auto-brightness and all sync's on).

It's 23:15 now, and I'm still at 51%.. Still figuring out if it's the 249 kernel, or something I didn't do today with my gnex :)

Once again, awesome work Francisco!

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
This was all in relation/response to you:

Did you follow any of the advice in it yet? At least re-pairing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TEK112:
Subtle...lol!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hboyer:
yes of course. no success unfortunately.

btw: calls etc. work great. i am talking about pbap adress book transfer only!!

edit: not lol. i need that function and don't want to go back to stock kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
I honestly don't think iv ever read about anything to do with Bluetooth being changed, by anyone, if seen some requests to enable some kind of mode where track id gets shown in BT headsets but thats it. Try reconnecting the devices again perhaps, or I think you said it takes longer in your first post, 5 minutes for transfer which I assume you only need to do once so wait it out for 5 minutes

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chugger93:
So 249 is amazing. I've never had such dramatic battery life out of any other build. Going on 10 hours now with 1 hour on screen and still at 75%? That's insane....

Well done Franco!! I gotta get my wife off 241 now lol....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joeyfong:
Personal feels that r248 is more smooth with input_boost enabled.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arhung:
Do you have any data connect and what is your setting ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Input boost is already enabled via PowerHAL.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maddler:
Could you please point me to more infos about new bootloader? :)

Thx

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dr_Ownage:
Its newer, apparently people are having good reports about it (havent heard anything bad) improving reception. google recommends it.

give it a go :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aron7awol:
Stay tuned, I think we will have some conclusive results soon after ro_explorer tests 100% CPU usage at each frequency.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bradm23:
I am alittle curious about the lastest facebook app (version 1.8.1)causing a sleeping battery drain. I say this because this morning up untill noon I was getting incredible battery life. I was talking on phone, texting, and surfing the internet on and off for 4-5 hours. Around noon, I opened Facebook to see whats new. Once i put my phone to sleep and unlocked it, I noticed that my battery crept from 60% to 55% in 45 minutes when I had been averaging about a % an hour.

When I went to "stop process" in applications, I saw that facebook runs two difference process: Upload Manager and Background detection service. Is this normal?

Has anyone have any info on the facebook app and if its a culprit for battery drain (other than using the program). I do not sync contact and turned off all of the notifications for facebook off. On a further note, i do not sync anything other than contacts
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luffyp:
About the CPU 350 vs 700 thing, if you set the minimum speed to be 700MHz, wouldn't it damage the phone in the long run? And then there might be a problem of phone getting hot. 350 may be more suitable for background tasks that you don't need to hurry?

Imagine a car that doesn't have Gear 1,2 but starts at Gear 3. How would it go up hills? :) (you can compare going up hills as background tasks that don't need speed, e.g. an app polling a server, you might not want to run that task at 700 MHz)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Felixpau86:
Is there any other way to flash the new bootloader without doing it via fast boot? Never used it with galaxy s before so havent tried to install anything with fastboot before. Or if anyone has a noob guide to fb that would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dr_Ownage:
its really really simple. check out the guides. youll be fine mate.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Yes facebook app is a cancer battery wise. As is Google Maps. I have a lot of apps on my GN and I use it pretty frequently and I don't have battery drain what so ever because I don't install rogue apps like that.

This isn't directed to you, but I'll just say this to everyone: if ya use your phone you have to expect that battery gets lost. You can't expect playing crysis 2 and get -10% battery drain. I'm doing everything I can to get the most performance out of the device, while preserving

the battery as much as I can, but there are no miracles. Focus a bit more on the beautiful device that you have, use it with pride and charge it as much as you can ;)

You can't use the car analogy here, it's WAY WAY different. Using 700mhz doesn't damage a thing, if I set it 700mhz as min it was for a reason, I don't do **** randomly.

No, just flash it via fastboot, easiest **** ever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] viskas:
I saw the android os is draining battery fast.

could the camera opened by gtalk be the reason as explained by franco in his first post?

in this case, wouldn't it be enough to freeze gtalk with titanium?

I do not use it at all!!

thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Try it, freeze it or remove it. But I suspect you have a rogue app somewhere doing all that **** drain. 95% of the time its an app doing the dirty work, I don't know how many times I already said that =(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Spronx_:
Thanks for the info, but do you have any links? I can't find anything on this...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] esoomenona:
Where can I find this new bootloader? Forum link?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Google will answer you ;)

Nightly #10 is out. It's a major release as I did change a good bunch of things. Enjoy and please, the usual feedback.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vangelis13:
Thank you!!

Any opinion on the newer bootloader deal that is mentioned so much in the last few posts..?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Redflea:
Thanks very much, installing as I type....

Really love having the changelog in your app, Franco, very convenient.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sishgupta:
Oh snap new AOKP and Franco Kernel on the same day!

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
No bloody idea. I'll be honest, I did install it two hours ago. Coincidence or not, battery's been even better with a good bunch of use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Francois88:
He's right.

I tracked down Swype's modified APK as the culprit for me. I had tried to download a custom language (French) and it was stuck in "Queued for download" with no option to cancel. It was keeping WiFi active 24/7. I reinstalled swype without trying to get French and all is good now. A percent or so every few hours while idle.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sishgupta:
Y U NO HAVE MY KERNEL?!

lol...just realizing I forgot to reflash the kernel after updating AOKP
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sert00:
changelog of all respect....downloaded via franco.updater,let's see how it goes!

this kernel is for me the best now for this devices..i have the better battery consumption abbined to speed and no lag esperience..and i have tried all kernelz with almost 6-7 roms_;)keep up the good work francisco,you're the man!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] willl03:
I get that everyday, with sync on, bluetooth, etc., using a clean AOSP rom like MiNCO or AndroidME Light is the key. Then hunt down every wakelock and disable built in apps you dont use, like nfc, google talk, etc

Just when Franco had said he didn't think there was much more he could do with the GNex kernel...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joeyfong:
Okay, I will flash r249 and try again, but sometimes I got cpu1 is offline, and I need to change the power mode to bring it on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scarmon25:
Just flashed and set up the r249 384mhz GPU build. Really liking the changes that was made. I've ran this kernel on and off but this build I'm gonna stick with I do believe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
If you see cpu1 being offline very frequently then something is wrong with your device. Maybe an app or a script turning off cpu1 for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joeyfong:
it works fine for r248

Can you tell me what are your settings on the kernel app?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Exostenza:
I don't know what is going on but on ics I ran Franco.Kernel and never had a data drop. Now on jb I have had a few with Franco and hardly any with trinity. Now on 249 it is out of control. What could be causing this and what can I do about it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hboyer:
thanks for your effort to help me!

I tried all what you said. the device reconnects automatically when I enter the car! but that is not the issue!

after each reconnect phone book data is transmitted from the phone to the car (PBAP standard protocol). this takes about 5 mins (due to the large quantity of entries I have in the phone), exactly this transmission sometimes fails, when using latest franco kernel.

i assume it is due to energy saving / sleep / deep sleep etc functionality of the kernel, which is generally very good, e.g. for battery life ;) but it seems not so good for this data transmission.

i am currently playing around with settings on interactive cpu governor, and got it to work for the last 3 times - let's see how this develops.

thanks again!

@franco? any comment?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] foueddyf:
Franco, #249 is a winner!

Wifi is even better than #246. My wifi now works as it always should have been. Yes my wifi is now completely fixed, never thought it would be possible.

Oh, and battery life? Awesome as always :)

Great job Franco and thx!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
1 more thing to help then, when you enter your car use a charger and in development options enable screen always on when charging. This will prevent low power mode or deep sleep.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chugger93:
I have custom voltages, but I doubt that's what's giving me good battery. Its the kernel itself. I don't have my 3g on at all unless I need it. No google now either and my google maps/latitude is turned off for background syncing. I'm on 24 hours with 50 percent left still. 249 is just so dam sweet. WIFI couldn't be better either!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HinotoriBR:
No need to set to screen always on, if charging, phone won't ever deep sleep, check CPU Spy and you will see that phone CPU won't enter deep sleep at all while charging.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tarun95:
For some reason scrolling in settings app always lags. Never happened on stock. BTW I am using your kernel from start and its in all versions. And I am stock deodexed ROM so it can't be a ROM problem. BTW 249 is too fast compared to m5 :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joeyfong:
my phone sleep very well while charging :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Marcb:
noticed that too...

stock seems more fluid sometimes when scrolling...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
That is physically impossible. It can lay and look pretty with screen off but the charger prevents it entering low power more which is when your screen is off and most of the internal chips turn off to save energy. Get CPU spy and turn your screen off and leave it alone for 5 minutes. Open the app do a screen shot. Then do the same with your charger in.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Yeah, it's always been something about the new "Accounts" section of the JB settings that makes it lag here. It only happens the first time after a boot though, then it's generally fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gianton:
This ROM and Franco's r249 kernel is a winner! My device has never been snappier no lugs whatsoever, still to find how's battery life.

I've tried a lot of the custom ROMs but this one really has the best UI speed experience.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] laureanop:
Actually it does go to sleep after it's fully charged to then wake up again when it needs to keep that full charge. I just woke up and took a snapshot with CPU spy. The phone was on the charger from 300 pacific to 1000.

The relentless pursuit of the perfect rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TEK112:
I think that is what is confusing people. The phone charges to 100, then turns off, then drops down to 96 and then starts charging again. During that time when the charging is stopped the phone will sleep.

So yes, the phone shows deep sleep while plugged into the charger, but being plugged into the charger doesn't necessarily mean it is charging, because north of 95% the phone may stop charging.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] laureanop:
Technically you guys are correct. Point conceded

* Move all the root operations to the background thread. This change has a few advantages: if a superuser call is made and for some reason gets blocked it won't block the UI thread anymore. The application will also opens much faster than before. All in all the app its much smoother to use, specially swipping the tabs.

Say, does anyone know how to get rgb gamma setting to default to 0 0 0 rather than the -4 0 5?

Trying to not have to go into kernel updater after every reboot to bring colors to normal. Is -4 0 5 hard coded into the kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Its hardcoded into the kernel but it should set the values to 0,0,0 if you set them in the dialog. I'll take a look if anything's borked.

EDIT: I set the RGB values to 0, 0, 0 rebooted and the values persisted. Are you running SuperSu?

AMAZING JOB Franco, Keep up the good work!!!

Superuser (little eye patch guy). Its what comes with bugless beast. Reboot always loses 0 0 0 and goes back to that blue -4 0 5 setting.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jorgen2009:
I have several issues with PBAP too in combination with CM10. For a fact I know that VW Premium carkits have trouble with PBAP in combination with Cyanogenmod/AOSP. For CM9 there was a patch to solve these problems.

Now for this kernel: Straight after flashing Franco's kernel (or any other for that matter), PBAP works as it should. However, after a reboot I have the same issues as you. Digging deeper it seems that clearing the cache in Recovery solves the PBAP problem! I can even reproduce it. Try clearing your cache (actually Dalvik cache to be precise), reboot and connect to your carkit. For me that was the solution.

It's not kernel related. Hope it works for you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] whitewallman:
So this is a superuser problem? I don't understand why on earth the default rgb is such an odd number rather than a logical 0 0 0 to begin with..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timbck2:
That's a different question altogether. I think it's because the developer of this kernel likes it that way (so do a lot of other people, including myself).

Anyway, to answer your question, yes its a problem with superuser that can be solved by replacing it with SuperSU.

I do have to say r249 is very pleasing vs r248. Battery was a huge issue on r248. I've been putting r249 through heavier than normal, for myself, use today and with 10hrs and 1h45m screen on with 40% left I am impressed, (max charge BLX is 90, bumps to 94). My only issue though, if you can even call it an issue, is that its utilizing 1036 freq much more than I'd like it to. I'm set on 384-1036 max off 384 and interactive. R241 is still my favorite and best I've ever used so far. It utilized 1036 very minimally. With all that said thanks for always improving Franco and all your hard work. Keep it up man. :thumbup:
