While I understand the joke, in this time of prayer and given the circumstances of the recent shooting, it hits a weak spot with my heart. Not to troll, just stating an opinion.

Aside from that, really enjoying the kernel man! Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mikeandjaimie:
Makes sense, thanks for the info.. Any idea what would make it run hotter all of a sudden? any suggestions to reduce heat.. these two times I had phone plugged in and screen brightness turned up which cause heat increase, but that's not the usual case. When I'm out its on auto brightness, and in my pocket screen off, but then freezes up when I start Texting after a few exchanged messages. Would UV help reduce heat, I've never tried it yet, but willing to try if it might help. Im willing to try almost anything at this point lol

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcmm11:
M4 is for ics roms, although you should really use r196 since its rock solid and should probably have been released as a final ics milestone.

Jb r223 is strictly for jellybean roms.

The stock gpu is actually native at 384, although Google/Samsung released it downclocked to 307.

Quick question: does Franko Kernel Updater App supports Jelly Bean? Title picture on Google Play says only 4.0 versions are supported, but it's a picture and the text below says that Nexus 4.1.1 is supported too. I was wondering what user experience was before paying up.

Thanks a lot!

SUGGESTION:

Franco, could you please add to your release notes a recommendation about clearing cache or dalvik cache?

Maybe sometimes nightly is with minor change and that doesn't require clearing everything. So it would save us some time if we will know you're recommending or not.

Thanks.

So you're that bas***d huh. I read on his g+ post that someone bought it for him. Me did the same. My friend in USA got mine already but there are still another 2 for my friends here waiting to ship. The funny thing is mine is ordered after.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GeekMcLeod:
I don't know what is causing it so I figured posting it here would help since the only change I've made to my phone recently is flashing #223

I recently just unlocked my phone to play some games when I see "shell has been denied superuser privileges". I don't think anything of it until it happened again, and again, and again. In my superuser log there is probably around 100 of this 'shell' being denied and I have no idea what it is. I rebooted my phone which seems to have ceased whatever was requesting it but I'd still like to know, if anyone else does, what was causing it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sing1gnis:
I'm having the same problem with the maximum frequency going back to 1200 with the screen off. Thought maybe superuser was the issue so I switched to supersu and I'm still having issues. Seems that the imo fix for this was left out of this build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Loop:
Yep, I can also confirm this. I just flashed ParanoidAndroid for testing and it resets Max-freq when I lock my phone. This didn't happen with XenonHD v2.0, it worked fine. I'm also using SuperSU. I guess it has something to do with CM10.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hexinn:
same problem here. [JB] PARANOIDANDROID [CM10HYBRID] [1.8-alpha]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Coffeebeans:
As of r223 the color control options do not seem to restore on boot properly. The RGB multipliers work fine but the RGB gamma values always reset to -4,0,5.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GeekMcLeod:
I could be wrong but that could be because of the second point in his update notes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Confirmed here too, probably a CM issue
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Coffeebeans:
I noticed that, the problem I'm having is that if I change those values they still reset to the default on reboot. I'll try clearing the app data and see if it changes anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Aye Mr. simms was kind enough to play as a proxy to get me that beloved device. I hope he doesnt fry it with benchmarks until it ships the beast here :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LNJ:
JB definitely seems slow on benchmarks but it's sooo smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
jb isnt slow on benchmarks, you just have to set it up a little different than you did on ics.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PhoenixAG:
Can you elaborate how?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Dancing kumbaya naked while its benchmarking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] juanzr1:
1.5ghz interactive
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
play with your setup, adjusting things one step at a time. for example, adjust your voltages, not so the phone runs, but find the voltage that your phone best performs with. this can be tedious, but every phone has a sweetspot, and its different for every phone, find it and youll appreciate it. as ive noticed, the same voltages i used on ics, arent that great on jelly bean. also, benchmark score will be higher when the phone is warmer(70-100C) not cooler like in ics. oh, btw, this is not a sgs3 or a htc one x, this is a gnex at 1804mhz(your phone can do it too, my phone isnt that special)..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timbck2:
So you're confirming that you'll be porting your most excellent kernel to the Nexus 7? Whoo-hoo!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vomer:
Lmfao :p :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackout23:
Just goes to show how useless benchmarks (and therefore overclocking) are (is).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kent_Davis:
I understand that. I wasn't upset. It was just something that caught my eye when grabbing the update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
smooth ui and performance are not one and the same. and besides, what you might think is super smooth, i think is improved but still needs some work. jelly bean is not perfect, so there is room for improvement. and you know what i mean, otherwise you wouldnt be using a custom kernel like franco kernel(which improves on stock jelly bean).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackout23:
Smooth UI has a lot to do with precived performance. I'm using a SSD in my 5 years old laptop and now it's responsive as ****. As long as you don't have real CPU intensive tasks (compiling and de-/encoding stuff) I wouldn't trade it for any modern overclocked Core i7 Laptop with HDD because it would feel slower 98% of the time I'm using it.

The reason I'm using franco kernel is simply because it has improved I/O performance which means that it could make my phone slightly more snappy. Even if it's not noticable I'll take it to reach the optimum. You won't belive the things I tweak on my linux laptop just to strip of 100ms boottime even when my boottime is only 3666ms anyway. If I can improve just by making things more efficient I'll do it.

I'm hoping that Project Butter has not ended with 4.1.1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PhoenixAG:
Lol thanks! I had a big real life laugh on that! :D

I actually don't care about the benchmarks as it's been performing well for me. One thing I would like to report is that it's defaulting back to 1200mhz in the app no matter what frequency I set the higher one too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
not really. you dont judge the performance of a car by how smooth the steering wheel turns or how smooth the other u/i elements on the dashboard are. and perceived performance is just that, perceived. im talking real performance.

so, youre saying that jelly bean isnt perfect and can get some benefits from tweaking and overclocking?

amen to that!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daprince047:
android isnt perfect if google wants android to be fast and efficient it needs to leave java behind and go to C++
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blackout23:
Overclocking is not making things more efficient. Increasing efficiency is taking what you have and getting more out of it without extra cost ( battery life, cpu lifetime ). In the end it depends on the tasks you do and how often you do them. When you're compiling code the whole day you would go for real performance over perceived performance. But I think we're getting a bit OT here.

QFT! I'd love to see that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
lol what......? you're joking right?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
lol, now thats a whole different conversation. anyways, nothing is perfect, except maybe the iphone(not :p ).

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 PM ----------

no, ocing doesnt improve efficiency (it might in some places, but not really overall). its more like putting a 12 cylinder engine into a honda accord. anyways, you did hit the right note with mentioning perception. we all perceive things differently and relate it to our different experiences. just like beauty being in the eye of the beholder. and, we all have different needs and expectations that we want fulfilled. while jelly bean has improved the android experience, for me it is still a bit lacking. but, i just need more than most i think, therefore i will keep on keeping on trying to squeeze what i can out of my android, to better it, to fill my needs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
This is an interesting remark. There are a few things that I can say about that, and today I actually spent some time talking with my friends from pplware.com (portuguese TI website where I write stuff about Android) about this. Google probably has chosen Java because it's a much higher level language which is much easier to code for a big range of devices. It's much slower than Objective-C (language used for iOS) but it's more easily ported over every damn device. Objective-C will always have better performance because it operates in a much lower level, but it's much harder to port over 1231239 devices. It's no coincidence Apple only has a single iPhone model for each generation. I tried to build an iOS app some days ago and I found Objective-C a bit harder than Java.

A little off-topic, but I felt compeled to answer ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stark_br:
Guys,

Does the kernel has something to do with gps?

Cos on 223 it isnt working, doesnt get fix.

Tks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
read this..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stark_br:
Tks bro.

But the kernel controls the gps module or no? Despite of my issue I'd like to know and learn a bit.

:thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
the kernel essentially controls everything. it ties the cpu to the hardware and software(ui included)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikulogical:
There's also a GPS fix in the aokp threads which worked for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I cant get mine to get too 1.8 :< at least not within suggested voltage limits for the SoC (which i believe is 1500mv correct?)

Anthing over 1.5ghz locks up unless I really push it on the voltage which I'm not comfortable unless I got a decent amount of cooling :3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
im not one for suggested anything, i like thinking out of the box and trying things that you wouldnt think would work normally. anyways, i use a different kernel.l at 1400mV to stabilize 1.8ghz for me, 10mV less or 5mV more, and i get an instant freeze and reboot. try different voltages. also, keep smart reflex off for ocing past 1.5ghz. and if youre not benchmarking, keep thermal throttle on. if youre benchmarking, turn off thermal throttle and turn off fsync(be aware of its dangers too).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
yea 1.8 doesnt work at any voltage for me :3 i can get up too 1.7 but 1.8 is a no go no matter what. Anything over 1.5 with SR on is a no go but disable it and I'm good. I'm not too worried I just like to tinker sometimes and usually run it aat 1.5 with SR and get great performance :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
1.8 was a no go for me to, until yesterday. i got so frustrated with the level of performance with jelly bean on my nexus s last night(installed aosp jb on it last night), that i gave up messing with it and focused on 1.8ghz on my gnex. i guess i was focused/frustrated enough to get it working :victory:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DarkBanHammer:
Not really I have 2.2.1 iOS apps running fine on my iPad 3 I won't get into the details
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
yea but for the most part it is essentially the same core OS, as apps are still written for the most part the same on iOS as they always have been. Also the hardware as a general rule for iOS devices is essentially just a basic evolution of each previous generation still using the same CPU and GPU type making it easier to run old apps on the new system, example here of iVolution

Iphone : Arm11 CPU PowerVr GPU

Iphone 3g : Arm11 CPU PowerVR GPU

Iphone 3GS: Armv7 CPU PowerVR SGX GPU

Iphone 4: Armv7 CPU PowerVR SGX GPU

Iphone4s, IPad2, iPad3 : Armv7 MCCPU PowerVR SGX MCGPU

Android on the other hands has many diff CPU GPU combo to deal with, some based on x86, ARM, MIPS, etc.

Android is a whole diff ball game from iOS devices

Well you could say that yes would be good but then again you could argue that the many different spec phones are one of the things that make android so competitive in price compared to say an iPhone. There's an android out there most people can afford to buy where as iPhone there is the choice between old models or newer one with 8/16 GB memory.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] clepsy:
Just did a test regarding power consumption with an ampere meter and I have some surprising results for different cpu settings that want to share with you, sorry no pics available:

-With cpu at default 1.2 ghz with x cpu test (does not matter which one) I have a drain of around 1A

-With same settings but cpu at 1.5 ghz with same x cpu test the drain doubled to 2A

Guess this tell you the answer

-Another test was with different voltage settings, but I found that this does not affect at all, l am not even sure if voltage change works, I tried with different kernels and apps and no change

This could be a prove that undervoltage does not affect battery at all or only minimal which also could only be in our minds that we undervolted and thus battery is saved
