How can you turn off background location and leave Google now on? I am on paranoid Android latest version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dyepnoodle:
go to settings/locations and services. turn off backgroud location there then open google now. turn it on from there just leave location off.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rossrogers:
Doesn't doing this defeat the purpose of Google Now? Or will it still figure out where you are and provide accurate information even though it isn't reporting automatically in the background?

Thanks, and sorry for continuing off topic.

@UBER, you are right. I found another video and got nothing but a black screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dyepnoodle:
no it will not affect some features of google now except for location info like traffic and any navigation stuff. weather as well, it will give u the correct weather forecast however it will give u inaccurate location. just turn location on then turn it back off. it helps save batt too.

My gnex is crashed, when turn on the Phone reboot too or three times to boot, some times crash on bootanimation :(, what can i do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 15israellai:
Sudden thought, since so many people are complaining about voltages not set on boot why not add a widget/shortcut to the app for applying voltages? This way it's still manual but more convenient :P

I already tried to help you before. Its time for you to fix your ****, this is not a Tech Support forum. Your installation is broken just lock & unlock your bootloader to start fresh. If you dont know how to do that Google knows it, ask him.

Current voltage widget does that, but its ugly and not very user friendly. I started a full re-code of the app yesterday and I plan to finish it by next week (yes its that huge). By then I want to include some useful and good looking widgets because lets be honest the current ones are fugly.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Just do a make clean and make distclean then make defconfig tuna_defconfig to start a fresh configuration file and see if it works. If it doesnt work then you borked something in your kernel commits.

What's with the +/- and power icon showing on the front of the handset in the first pic?!

Still has the initial packaging covering the screen perhaps?

Had some performance issues on 298, unsure as to whats causing it yet though. System just gets very sluggish from time to time.

Battery has been good, got over 3hrs of screen on time yesterday and that was a mixture of WiFi and 3G.

I already helped you some pages ago and I gave you an idea for a fix in my last post. You're now n your own.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
It's not that Franco doesn't like helping, but I think what he was getting as was it's better to try and do trouble shooting yourself before asking. I don't say that in a mean way, I just mean that if you have problem, but haven't tried anything to fix it, then it could be anything that's wrong. If you have a problem and say "I've tried X, Y, Z, and A and none of those worked" then that helps narrow down what the actual problem is and people here can help (which sometimes just means sending you a link to Google. lol). In your case, the best thing to do would be to pull the battery, then put it and and boot into Recovery, then reflash your ROM without wiping anything. That should get you up and running and should always be your first step in trouble shooting. After that, then reboot into recovery and flash a new kernel and go from there. Trouble shooting is just taking things one step at a time and seeing what fixes a problem. =) You should be back up and running after a little bit of work.

:):D:laugh::good:

Edit: After searching back, I see a bunch of posts on the 26th about this. And btw, this type of post doesn't really get you much help:

So whatever it was you did to fix it before, did you try it again? What did you do exactly, and how did it react? Details = Help, No Details = No Help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
ummm....longtime trinity user, thought i will try out 298, since i have the app lying around anyways..! :D well apparently i picked a bad time to flash franco, pgm doesnt work(i read the last 15 pages, apparently others have same problem too), plus it slows down n lags sometimes, plus it goes into bootloops after a reboot sometimes. I flashed back to M6. I am not very kernel-savvy, and I definitely wont piss off franco with stupid questions(even in trinity thread, morfic n rascarlo dont answer too many questions, its usually simms that helps out evry1, that guy has got oodles of patience). But if anyone of you can break down the SCHED DEBUG fix for PGM into a bit more simpler language, i would be greatful. Or can you just point me to the most relatively stable release(I dont want to hear m6 lol :p ....i want 384 gpu! :D)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tbbo514:
Lmao no I smelled something bad and my friend took a picture
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
I have no idea about the PGM fix, but M6 is 384GPU, by the way. :)

Its if you want 512GPU that you're out of luck with the Milestones. r290 is like M6 + fixes and has a 512GPU build if that's what you meant. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] duduzinho15:
I changed the voltages and governor control, but my boot continue crashed ever crashed on bootanimation, then the fone reboot too time and go for system normally
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AutomaticFailure27:
Do you have your voltages "set on boot"?

Maybe they are too low and therefor it needs to reboot multiple times to get the correct voltage table back to actually work.

To solve everything, and to make it easy on yourself, redo a clean install.

---------- Post added at 09:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:57 AM ----------

PGM works perfectly for me... Did you try to uninstall/reinstall PGM? Check the PGM settings to make sure it was turned on? (Dumb I know, but I did that before)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joaquinf:
Uninstall the app and install it again, revoke the SuperSU permissions first.

That should help, I have no problems whatsoever with r298 and pgm paid version
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hans QC:
No PGM problems here with r298-512GPU.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
We welcome Trinity users with open arms. Welcome, brother. ;)

Have you tried PGM yourself? There was one person (that I remember seeing) that had an issue, but many others responded with it's working for them. The SCHED DEBUG deal that you are referring to was another kernel dev asking Franco for help with getting PGM working in THEIR kernel (AK). That has been fixed in Franco's for a long time. So that shouldn't apply to you at all while you're here. PGM should work on r298. If it doesn't, try clearing the app data, then reboot and fix permissions. If need be, uninstall/reinstall but you should be able to get it going. If not, by all means, let us know and we can look into that again. But if I remember right, the user who had issues with PGM on r298, had it working on r295, so maybe try installing that and see if it helps.

EDIT: Well there you go, tons of people with working PGM. :)

And like osm0sis said, all Milestones are 384. So you should be good there. But r298 is so awesome, I can't recommend M6 (even though it's awesome as well).

And as for stupid questions, well... most questions will get a good answer, as long as they are asked right, like yours. Others will get a link to lmgtfy, like this.

Try running completely stock settings (wipe Franco.Updater app data and reboot) and make sure there are no other apps that control the kernel. Don't change anything. Don't Undervolt. Don't tweak. Just try it stock (stock will be Deadline, not BFQ--make sure you are not on BFQ for testing purposes). Now that you are running stock Franco settings, are you still getting reboots and whatnot?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sachilleas:
I have a strange problem that is ram related. Two days ago i installed jb sourcery and r298.

Whenever gnexus had a little amount of free ram left, the phone became sluggish and eventually froze for 5-10 seconds trying to free more ram. After that it was responsive again. This happened many many times. I really thought it was a rom problem but last night i flashed milestone 6 and there is no problem after that.

Is there any chance that this has something to do with latest franco additions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shawnaye:
I believe milestone 7 might be the final milestone from Franco for awhile right? By then the nexus 4 should be out.

And we should be left in the dark void, while Franco does his magic on the new nexus.

Can't wait for milestone 7!! Haha. A long shot! But I like to dream.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I changed some settings on lowmemorykiller driver but its really weird that anyone could go out of memory, the settings are pretty aggressive. Although thanks for the report I will see through it when I have time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BigBake88:
No, he said he would continue to support the GN, especially if our kernel gets bumped up to 3.4. We will not be left behind!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shawnaye:
yeah, what i meant is he'll concentrate on the Nexus 4 when it gets to his hands! and well, pause the GN development for abit until the Nexus 4 gets rolling along. haha. whatever happens, i'm satisfied with r298 as it is, perhaps a few tweaks here and there to the newly introduced intermediate frequency would be great!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Even if it doesn't go full-blown 3.4 there'll definitely be some choice backports he can cherry-pick, the GN just won't be where the new development is happening, it'll be the one that gets the cross-patches; kind of like Franco's N7 kernel is benefiting a lot from his GN development at the moment.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrdevil_25:
it seems like my battery performance is not as good with r298 compared to M1.

with M1, regular use, i was able to get about 18hours on battery with about 3 hours of screen time.

after flashing r298 i was only getting about 12 hours of battery and 2 hours of screen time =(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
wow....thats a lot of responses in a really short time...well, yes I uninstalled it, revoked SU permissions, cleared data, turned it on and off, all of them in various combinations like 2-3 times. Weird thing is, after revoking SU, it doesnt even ask for SU anymore. So no go for me.

Anyways, M6 is working fine for me, its actually smoother than trinity!!! :o:cyclops::eek: Thats seems about right anyways since my phone always liked franco's better than trinity. I used to run franco the first 10 months I had the GN, just switched to trinity the last 2 months. Anyways, if M6 has 384 then i m good. I remember 283 was awesome for me, had no issues. M7 cant be far now..... :silly::silly:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Make no mistake my priorities will be on the new Nexus. I will be in the new job, maitaining the app, and 3 devices. Its been a full year fully supporting this device a little less work on it is to be expected.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
I cant compare to M1, since m not an elephant lol...:p:p but my idle drain in 298 is darn good. with battery monitor widget i got ~9ma last nite(0.5%/hr), while the best I got on trinity was 16ma (1%/hr). I doubt screen on time would be significantly different. BTW, I had google now weather off, Beautiful widgets weather refresh every 4hrs, google now location based services off, everything else on.

If I recall correctly SR undervolting CORE is what gave us SODs, cell drops and wifi issues. And I think I recall franco saying undervolting IVA caused other problems, with IO or something.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:

lol :)

Yeah. I think IVA UVs gave us most of the issues, but CORE UVs gave us the 512 artifacts. So when Boss Man bumped UP the CORE voltage, that's when 512 became stable for everyone and their mom (assuming, of course, that they have really cool and techie moms).

Very nice and stable kernel!!

It would be great if you get a notification when a new version is available in your app :)

(sorry for my bad English..)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
Franco's thought of that in the past, but a notification would require a lot of background processes--which would take more batter. So he's said no. People can check the app manually and not take any extra battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Soon, one of the new additions of the app re write thay Im doing is an option to set a live notification for new updates and the refresh time of the service. And one that doesnt want that will be able to disable.

K, so little update here, this is my second cycle with r298:

I'm at 1d 2h on battery, 2h 30m Screen Time on, and still 25% left! Unfreaking believable. At this rate I'll definitely go over my 3h usual. I was a little worried since my idle drain appeared to be back up at ~1%/h when I checked this morning (was 0.4%/h a few builds back), but this thing has really held up through some moderate usage today. Going to do some browsing and light gaming now to see how far I can push my screen time. Fingers crossed for 4h club. ;):fingers-crossed:

All my usuals of course, I'm running stock regular battery, 384GPU, 384-1536 (w/ selective UVing of 384@775mV, 1420@1250mV & 1536@1300mV, the rest are SR controlled), Franco's new default governor tunables (60k/65/45k/15k), 729 hispeed/1036 input_boost, 537 screen off max, bfq scheduler, fsync off, logcat and events logging off, westwood tcp congestion control.
