It seems the battery life of r225 is better than the r230..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kashix:
You can't judge the battery of a kernel so fast, go through at least 2 battery cycle. Rome wasn't built in a day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kairi_zeroblade:
+1

i am draining 1% per 1.5 hours with the R230 i drain 1% in just 40 mins idle..will still run more test with R230..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] P30SiNa:
My phone is not smooth with r230. both ondemand and interactive are a little laggy, but r228 is working fine
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Crackking:
My battery life is great with r230 so far.... best Kernel since r196 :D

And everything is really smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] supernova_00:
The phone is actually shutting down and I think it is kernel related because I never had the issue before r196 or so :/ I can't find anything anywhere that lists a log for what the hell happened when the phone shutdown.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arhung:
yes, I think you are right, just keep looking
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dyndragon:
I keep getting a warm reset (in last_kmsg i see "last reset was warm software reset (PRM_RSTST=0x2)" ) where i try to wake the phone, but it doesn't come back up, and a few moments later i see the phone restart--but NOT a full reboot with the boot animation and everything. It's like as if the UI crashed and came back, and I come back with "no service". What logs should I get in this case? after the warm reset logcat doesn't seem to show anything interesting, and neither does last_kmsg.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
With 230 I got 16% overnight in 12h24m (~1.29%/h) and that was with Facebook app and Wifi Web Login app waking things up occasionally.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TEK112:
Sounds like some residual kernel crap. When was the last time you did a clean Rom/kernel install?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CommanderDuplex:
Undervolting sill not work :(

R230

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LNJ:
Check etc/init.d to see if you have another kernel script adjusting start up values.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anoraknophobia:
I've tested the r225 and r230 with the ParanoidAndroid Rom and in my opinion only the interactive gov is workling smoothly.

With weatly or ondemand i got a "laggy" feeling.

Settings are 384 - 1305 - interactive.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tarun95:
Yes for me also ondemand gives those micro lags. Interactive makes me feel I have s3 :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arhung:
Did you set any governor control？
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 15israellai:
I'm not sure. Should I do so or should I not?

Anyway I wiped the updater app data, wiped cache and flashed the kernel through CWM (instead of auto flash). No problem now. Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
change the sampling rate to 15000 and 98 up threshold, and tbe laggy feeling will go away.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tarun95:
Nope. But recently I just changed hispeed_freq to 1037000 to save a little juice.

Edit : This kernel puts the stock kernel to shame :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] superbobup:
I figured 15000 was the lowest but the app won't let me go lower than 30000. Hmmmm guess I'll try a diff alp and see if it works
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wil318466:
Just wanted to report that I recently installed the 230 nightly and my phone got incredibly hot. Not warm, I mean hot. I picked it up off the charger (wall charger) and it was so hot I was worried I might hurt the phone. It was almost to the point where it was too hot to hold.

I unplugged it and just let it cool down, which it did over the next 10 minutes or so. Just wanted to let you know. I've never had any issue with any kernel, so this was strange.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikeandjaimie:
Omg franco! I been running 1.8 steady for about 6 hours now on 512ghz and not a single issue... Whatever those tweaks for higher freq you did, fixed it back to like pre r217.. Just when I had given up on OC above 1.5 heh Love Your work!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Yeah, can't seem to set it lower than 30000 here either.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JeanEatsWorld:
HELP Guys..

I don't really know why but I can't flash this kernel (the stable nor the nightly)..

I've also tried to flash airkernel but it comes the same problem.. I'm stuck in the black screen with "google" written in the middle and the open locker down to the screen..

I've tried many times (with many roms) but with always the same resultes.. the only way to use it after it bricks is: take the battery off, go to recovery, flash a new rom with his kernel inside..

Please help me.. I bought this phone 3 days ago and I really want to try this kernel!!!

..may it be a bootloader or a radio problem?? I don't know.....never tried to flash this stuff..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] belvedere:
same deal here using SetCPU. locked for a reason maybe?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] creeve4:
franco.Kernel updater does not have an option for changing the scheduler. Does this kernel support schedulers other than deadline?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LNJ:
No it does not. You can check by installing other apps like Voltage Control and seeing what schedulers are available and only Deadline is!

Wifi seems as bad in r230 as it is in the JB stock kernel. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] c_86:
Meaning??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Meaning using franco.Kernel seemed to improve the issue with Wifi on JB in builds up to r225, but now with 230 it seems as bad as stock.

Perhaps due to some of the new commits he merged?

Sorry guys for getting you excited xd

Blazing on my Nexus Prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikeandjaimie:
Exactly! If you people have issues with something, troubleshoot it yourselves.. If only one or two people have wifi issues, battery, or heat issues, try re flashing first. Do a complete wipe (I format everything but boot/etc) then install rom, if it's smooth, install kernel, test, then flash next thing. Run with no extra installed crap... These are basic testing methods for roms. If you don't want to do these things on your own.. Maybe you shouldn't be using custom Roms. Don't dirty flash 5 times then say something doesn't work cause your phone is still full of junk. I've often Reflashed a ROM multiple times cause the first time didn't work 100% or it wasn't stable after flashing multiple zips onto the rom for addons etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eug89:
Are you getting a force close tapping storage in settings perhaps? It's happening to me with that ROM and this kernel.

Inviato dal mio Galaxy Nexus con Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] six_dfx:
r230 is looking very good to me, every setting sticks correctly and it's damn fast.

It's also the first version that seems stable at 1612 on my device, and it feels somewhat cooler at 1536 than r22x (may have something to do with the UV patches, or just placebo effect).

Anyway thanks franco and enjoy your vacation :)

I've been using Franco from a long time, until now, there's always ppl saying that omg build #??? Broke my Wi-Fi. It never fails to crack me up lol. I've never encountered anything of the sort seriously. Really kudos to Franco
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kitecarl:
Seriously.. My phone is locked & loaded on the latest Franco release - 7+ hours off the plug and still 80% remaining. Not loads of screen time, but wow this thing idles now like a sleeping baby. Great work!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tarun95:
I agree battery on this is damn good. That to I am on interactive. :p BTW is there a lot of difference between the 1750 and 2000mah battery ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kashix:
Gives you a little more, I think its just right though for the amount of screen time. Able to hit 3hrs of screen time daily on the extended battery, its a no brainer!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikeandjaimie:
From what I've seen of people's screen on times with and without the extended battery, seems you get about 45min to 1.5hrs extra with it. Not a huge difference i know but that 1.5hrs could mean the world to someone who uses it for business calls etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tarun95:
I have the extended battery but my new case doesn't fit properly with it. :p so wanted to know and I get 4hrs of screen time with extended :p

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Loop:
I can confirm this. With r230 I can't go lower than 30000, with r223 I could do 10000 and 15000. The difference is notable with lower sampling rate. I found OnDemand my new favorite during 223 because of simms22 tip. Otherwise r230 looks like a winner, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vomer:
LOL get off XDA dude! Go vacation and ignore us :good: :highfive:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Haha feel free to thank me even when I'm wrong ;)

Who knows, maybe it was just a bad night for the Wifi at my house, but I hadn't seen it lose connection like that since switching to Franco from JB stock. I'll give it a few more days and see if it levels out. I only use stock ROM, JB from the OTA, and I added the gradient and sound latency fix mods myself. No dirty flashing involved since it's never not been stock, and I clear dalvik and cache partition to be on the safe side with new franco builds.

The issue is legit, and Google is looking into it as it definitely is broken on JB stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kashix:
sorry, but after reading your post, I still don't understand, which is better? does the sampling rate makes such of a drastic difference?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] superbobup:
I'm not sure if any of this is right but...I think the sampling rate is x samples per second. So if you have a smaller sampling rate it should react to changes faster thus getting rid of micro lags. The 15000 seems much smoother for OnDemand than the stock 30000 value but for some reason we can't change it in r230.

If you're running a prev version you can try 15000 and see how it compares :)

Edit:

To clarify, I'm basing my "smoothness" off of my own experience and other people's posts (hint, simms22 :p) so it may not even be that different for you. Best way is to try it!

Sorry for my previous post Franco.

R230 is really awesome and I have a great great battery life

I flashed it 3 times then it worked good. I think there is something wrong with cwm 6.0.1.0. I should go back to 6.0.0.5

Because even Minco rom had some bugs for me but in the 3rd flash it was ok.

Anyway, thanks Franco. R230 is awesome.

---------- Post added at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:06 PM ----------

23hrs and 34m on battery

2h 40m on screen

played GTA 3 , watched a 30min video, web browsing ...

45% still remains

R230 is really good and performance is awesome. Ondemand is smoother than before.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Good news is you still get all the Knowledge Graph search cards from setting up Google Now correctly :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yahyoh:
lowering sampling rate make cpu ramp up and down faster which make phone faster but battery drain is higher too

if want pure performance use something about 20000 - 30000

for normal using 50000 - 75000

for battery saving use 100000 or more if u like :D

u can play with up threshold too but stock setting is ok
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pwvandeursen:
tried it, but unfortunatelu the system never loaded with this kernel. had te go back to the orginal kernel of Franco.is it as simple as putting the cifs.ko file somewhere in the system or do I have to do somehting else, in stead of flashing a new kernel?

What's the difference between all the downloadable files for jb kernel? There like 384 and 512gpu does it matter witsh one I flash?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 15israellai:
I wonder how many times we've seen this question.

512MHz GPU theoretically boosts graphics performance, at the extra cost of little battery. However, some phones may not be able to stand this frequency (mine can), so you have to try it yourself.

Just wanted to confirm r230 makes my phone much more stable at high frequencies.

Yeah franco I'm with him.. All those problems/instability I had with <1.5 caused by changes introduced in 217 are totally gone, been running heavy use for about 24hrs (3 charges heh) now without a single issue, and my phone runs beautifully.. Default voltages, no tricks or uv. Ondemand as it's default and wanted to test it out. Occasional lags here and there, not as smooth as interactive, but nice overall with the battery savings. Think I might make it my default and just switch to interactive if I need more umf

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ssCISengineer:
So what makes you think it's the kernel?

It could be a multitude of factors as to why your Wifi doesn't work. The kernel may affect signal strength, and or range. However most people here aren't having Wifi problems, and so it's something wrong with your setup or something went wrong during an installation.

Yes the phone gets quite hot at 1806 using the default 1450mV, and thermal throttling won't let it run at that speed for a whole benchmarking session, but I think I have found a sweet spot between performance and power consumption at 1612 / 1350mV
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wyattn:
Yea, I did this while I was sitting in the airport (using the 230 version) and it just keep going to the Google screen ... chilling for about 2 min, then black, maybe a vibrate ... then back to the Google screen ... repeat. I let it go for about 10 minutes while I was sitting waiting to get on the plane and then I dropped back to the imosyen which was one that I had to go download from the rootwikiz forum. I tried flashing the imoseyon as well from the app and got the same results so that's when I went to manually pulling the old kernel that came with the 4.1.1 V1 rom, verifying the MD5 and installing from CWM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TEK112:
When was the last time you did a full wipe? It seems as though there may be kernel "stuff" left behind, init.d scripts and what not. This could prevent you from booting different kernels.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wyattn:
I haven't done a full wipe since I installed 4.1.1, but then again, I haven't installed any other kernels. Maybe there's an incompatibility with the 4.1.1 that I'm running vs the CM10 preview that a lot of other people have upgraded to. Guess, I've got something to do this afternoon and upgrade to CM10 and see if that changes the outcome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TEK112:
CM10 has known issues with a lot of kernels including francos. Franco has modified his kernel to boot on CM10, but for some it may be hit or miss.

If you plan on running CM10, just know that boot looping may be a regular thing if you like to change kernels.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martindesu:
I haven't been able to find a suitable answer to this, but what's the best way to revert back to a stock kernel? (Just in case)

This is my first attempt at fiddling with a kernel, but I'm really liking the performance of this Franco kernel :)

Unless you have the stock kernel to reflash, restore a backup you made prior to switching kernels.

I have this new morning ritual now: while I'm waiting for my coffee to brew, I flash the new nightly. It's a great way to start the day.

Francisco, your kernel is the gift that keeps on giving. 9.2 is an absolute dream--wakelag is nearly nil, battery life has improved, and the conservative governor performs just as well as interactive. No gapps issues, no reception issues.

Thanks again.

Thanks Franco! New kernel update fixed the lag I had that others reported as well. You are brilliant!!

Just a little smell of whats coming:

Coming for nightly #10:

* Added Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP - by Google - from 3.2 Kernel

* I/O-less dirty throttling - backport from 3.2

* Reduce filesystem writeback from page reclaim - backport from 3.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lonnyrs:
Apologies for the noob question, but after typing the first line of this code, do I just keep typing? I try to enter, to type the next line, but it doesn't, just stays there. I'm really trying to learn this stuff, so I could use some help. Also, using RE, is it system> etc> init.d. where this file is created?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
Is the link in the OP to 9 or 9.2? It's hard to tell since there isn't a kernel number in the file name. I assume it's 9.2 since there aren't any other kernels in the parent directory ... unless the latest kernels are only available to people who have your app and are stored somewhere else.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
You only need to enter that line once every reboot. Yes, create a script called for example 99hotplug in /system/etc/init.d, give it full permissions and write that line inside the file, then the script will run every reboot.

It's 9.2 yes, sorry about that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lonnyrs:
Yes, it just says 9, but it's the new update. In CWM it says nightly-2
