Mine just sets colors, which is broken right now anyway. Phoenix posted one a few pages back. Just remember that Linux newlines aren't the same as Windows and the scripts should have 1 or 2 extra newlines at the end to work correctly. You can also search the thread for my nick and init.d script and find a couple other examples I've posted in the past. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] peikojose:
Let me know if I understood well...

Right know I'm using stock 4.2.1

Can I flash it using stock 4.2.1?

Can I just download this file and flash it using a custom recovery (I don't see any .zip file, only .img)? If not, how can I flash it?

What are the advantages of flashing it?

Can I revert it back?

Best regards.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thegtfusion:
ahaaaa okay. too bad i reached my thanks limit today :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobitronics:
1. Yes

2. No, flash img via fastboot command (fastboot erase boot -> fastboot flash boot boot.img) or look for a zip someone posted it i believe

3.you got franco kernel, its way better than stock (speed, battery life etc.)

4. Sure, just do the same flash as you did with the franco boot but replace the boot.img with the boot.img from the factory image.

Hit thanks if it helped you.

Random q for Osmosis and the heavy UV'ers.

Do you disable smart reflex after you've found UV settings you like, or do you calibrate it with smart reflex on?

---------- Post added at 11:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 PM ----------

Also, second q: I currently have a min screen off value of 537 for race to idle purposes. I'm wondering if this is actually detrimental though given I use my phone for music with screen off for very extended periods.

Given that usage pattern, would setting a lower min freq be a better idea?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
Nope, always leave SR enabled unless you are overclocking to 1.5GHz or higher. And yes, 537 is the perfect screen off max freq.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pinkthesink:
Franco,

Is it possible to increase the max brightness via the kernel? If so, could you release an option or alternate kernel that would increase the max brightness level?

To clarify, I'm not referring to the max brightness in the auto-brightness mode. Rather maximum nits (Nexus is sub 250nits iirc)

I find the max brightness of the nexus to be poor in general; especially when compared to my galaxy s2. If it isn't possible at the kernel level, is it regulated via untouchable firmware?

If it's risky, i'd be more than willing to be a guinea pig.

Loving your kernel,

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jan-willem3:
Brightness is already 300 cdm vs the normal stock 280 cdm. And it cant become higher then that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AdrianE46:
Am I the only one not seeing any improvement in battery life with this kernel? Maybe i'm doing something wrong? I'm on aokp milestone 2 and flashed "latest radio for europe", can't remember which one. And i seem to be getting about 7-8 hours with 1 and a half hours screen time. That's about what i got on stock. Any help please?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] festermania:
Hi Franco, please have you idea to do a kernel for the 4.0.2 stock rooted version?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChongoDroid:
I've been doing some intense battery testing and I've found that with the aokp roms they only play nice with a fresh install.

This is what I did,

Wipe everything

install rom (build 15 in my case)

Install franco 12

First boot don't sign in, instead reboot

Opening lock screen to camera and then back button to home.

Sign in and restore apps

Enjoy crazy battery life!

Praise Odin lol

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jan-willem3:
It is not exactly ment in the first post but the brightness is higher it is actually when the changelog said colors tweaked again. There he modified a value in the tuna display panel code wich increased the brightness. Wanted to show you the source but his bitbucket is currently private.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sluflyer06:
That doesn't hold true for my phone at all. I can install Franco's kernel or updates to it on a existing AOKP build with no battery life issues and have many times already.

Just adding in my experience.

Guys do a test for me. Open the app tray and close it.multiple times. Smooth I'm assuming..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dinglehoofis:
Liked it so much I bought the app. What is recommended as far as a good min/max and governor for oc?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobitronics:
What are your recommended colour settings? The stock ones? Also I always have lag scrolling from first to second page in the app drawer, although ive had this on all kernels i tried on stock (4.1 and 4.2)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
I pushed them all under their SR calibrated voltages so it doesn't really matter. I leave it on so Device Monitor shows the voltages, and not 0mV like it does when SR is off.

Remember it's screen off max, so it won't go there unless it has to. It also ensures your music app has a bit of range to play with to avoid stuttering.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Khrushy:
My screen off max is at 1036 for exactly that reason, and I'm not bothered there because, as you said, it doesn't go there unless it needs to; It's the CPU min I was checking about.

~Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Ah there is no screen off min. Only global min. And for that I find 384 to be the best, so there's that range I just mentioned, but you can get some nice battery savings, especially if you UV it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Anyone using CM10.1 or any derivates, can you please attach the boot.img of that rom? My home internet is crappy I can't download a full rom without crashing the internet connection :(

Flashed r335 in the morning and my GN feels much smoother and faster; with previous r228 I had lag problems in Swype kb and while scrolling through desks, rendering icons in desktop etc; now device feels smoother, Swype is fast as it always has been, no problems with scrolling and rendering.

Thanks a lot FF.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
Very much so! We had figured out that 192MHz underclocked to 730mV was a screamin' good setup for the min CPU, but it caused a little bit of lag and ended up not being worth it for the most part because of the performance hiccups. But if we could set that for the screen off min that would be incredible for battery life! 192@730 min and 537@900 max would be an awesome screen off setup!

:):D:laugh::good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Exactly what I was thinking. Can't wait. :D

Edit: But I've got my 192@725mV and managed to drop down 537@825mV quite stably. ;):good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Khizar:
ok i can say something is defiantly wrong with r335.. i went to sleep and when i woke up my phone was dead, i thought it was a SOD of so tried but nothing worked not even a battery the phone just wouldnt boot but when i tried to charge my phone it started charging so i waited a min then booted into recovery and saw that battery was at 0.. it was at around 60% when i went to sleep, so i am back to r328, with r328 i lost close to 10% overnight on pa, with r335 close to 60%
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Yes you can backup your existing boot.img, flash mine and if you want to revert to stock you can restore your previously backed up .img.

Should be trivial ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Something went wrong there, doubt its my kernel to be honest. Thats caused by a Wake Lock being held for a long time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Khizar:
i went from r328 to r335 all i changed was the kernel, everything else including the rom and settings were same.. thats why i thought it was the kernel cuz i had no issues on r328
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joaquinf:
Francisco could you please take a look at this and try to replicate it? In the latest version of fku do the following:

Open the app

Go to franco kernel updater option

download latest nightly kernel

auto flash

when the downloading progress toast is shown rotate your phone (portrait to landscape or the other way around)

now the toast is gone and apparently keeps downloading the boot.img on the background

a few seconds later, i assume when the download is finished, the app force close

Reboot the phone and check the kernel version. The installation was unsuccessful

I've done the same thing like 3 times with the same result. Let me know if i can be any helpful. I'm also missing the nightlies changelog on the menu :( that was handy even though when it wasn't any changelog :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Ooh nice catch. Sneaky little edge cases. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joaquinf:
:p i found it acidentally. Thanks for trying it out
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I really hate the rotation in Android, its so badly implemented because it basically restarts the activity and the ****ing dialog is gone. I'll try to go around that. Thanks and sorry.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wynnded:
That's the kind of stuff that should be getting fixed in their incremental updates....or should've been fixed ages ago...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joaquinf:
No need to be sorry man. This is what's all about. Thanks to you for making the android experience much more pleasing and fixing all that google has messed up. Keep up the good work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Khrushy:
When was this testing done? Pre-4.1? Wouldn't the auto-ramping of the CPU from screen touches due to project butter fix the 192 hiccups?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Do you know Mr. Latency?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
There's a delay before the CPU ramps I believe and also short bits of latency betweens frequency changes up or down. The CPU is more or less on a short timer between frequency changes to determine if it is further necessary to ramp up or if the system can begin heading into idle mode
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Khrushy:
I don't really like the guy :-p

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
At first I thought r335 might be a bit laggier than r328 but now it seems okay. I think it settled more or something. Honestly it's impossible to tell what isn't just JB 4.2 being a piece of **** at this point.

Edit: I hate to say it but, despite being the bleeding edge junky that I am, I'm finding myself highly tempted to go back to 4.1.2 with r300. We did not get long enough to enjoy how amazing Franco made that revision of the kernel.

Seems like Google always throws a curve ball just as Franco reaches perfection with each branch. It sucks. Same thing happened with r196 for ICS. It was amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shawnaye:
Hmm.. Same as well. On stock settings. Having the occasional lag like when receiving a text. Or when launching xda. Hmm...

Why do I agree with that so much?? Haha. Dicks are Google screwed up big time. Even the quick settings is rubbish. Not as if we've got 3 thumbs and can use two of em to drag down at the same time.

Well at least r335 hasn't given me any nightmares that r328 weirdly gave.. You know what I mean..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Khizar:
nope
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] garuhhh:
I do. but it seems a rougue application/service is bugging down the system.

Last time I noticed was SystemUI. it kept on spiking its cpu usage, after having it force close, everything went well again. Not sure though with your case.

I think I wanna follow Osmosis to going back to 4.1.2. I really miss the buttery goodness of franco kernel with that android version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shawnaye:
Ah yes. It feels like something is spiking the cpu usage.

After a while, everything is smooth again. But it always comes back no matter what I do. Note I'm on stock and even oced to 1420mhz.

Oh os you went back to 4.1.2?

R300 and what rom are ya on?

I'm tempted as well. Wondering what new things 4.2 has offered me compared to 4.1.2..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
No no haven't gone back. Just said it's tempting... 4.2 has mostly offered you headaches. ;)

Just got a crazy reboot during a game. Took me directly to the bootanimation, which is odd. It didn't produce a last_kmsg but here's a copy of my kmsg from after it happened.

Seeing a lot of the following repeating in large sections too, perhaps a cause of the unwakable screen?:

omapdss DISPC error: SYNC_LOST, disabling LCD

omapdss DISPC error: First SYNC_LOST.. ignoring
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] garuhhh:
I'm also on stock at 1.2GHz, usually after killing the misbehaving app, everything goes back to normal. I'm using System Panel to monitor cpu usages.

Can anybody recommend a better one for the task?

---------- Post added at 11:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 PM ----------

Got exactly the same reboot to the bootanimation a couple of days back with 335, and 4.2.1. but forgot to get the last_kmsg :(

edit: oh I was playing a movie via MX player when the reboot happened.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shawnaye:
I don't wanna go back to 4.1.2 cause i'll feel so backwards. like i can't update if franco releases any new kernels..:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Haha exactly. It would take some serious rehab for my crack flashing to stay on an old version. But then again, Minco v5+r300 could be pretty good while Minco v6 gets cooked up with JB4.2 fixes. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kitecarl:
+1

Just can't bother to lose the stability of Minco v5, especially considering I love the two way unlock of the pre 4.2 lock screen (right to unlock, left for camera), not a fan at all of the new lock screen widgets, find the settings shortcuts useless (although do find the custom ROMs that changed them to toggles useful), and can take advantage of the new gapps functionality on Minco.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ronaldo Forenucci:
Went back to r328 with the ported WiFi driver. The IMAP Idle problem reappeared when 335 brought back the old driver. On 335, the phone just won't stay sync'd to the email server for some reason. Opening the email app (doesn't matter which one - have Kaiten, Aqua mail, and Droid mail) and forcing a pull, takes forever, or times out. Have to disable and re-enable WiFi to get it to work. It's perfect on 3G. r328 is perfect. Rasbean Jelly 11/28. Worked fine on 4.1.x /r300 IIRC. Tried different routers too...no joy.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] billykxda:
Need advice - I've moved from CNA 4.1.2 with Francisco's r300 to Muzzy's 4.2.1 running the stock kernel. Been on that for a few days now. I think I can get better performance and battery life with a Franco kernel, and I miss the audio tweaks as well.

I know the world has moved on from r300, but that's the last I know and the last time I was in this forum. Is the latest nightly the best place to jump back in, or is there a better place to start?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] whitedragonz83:
I changed the scheduler from deadline to noop with r335. For some reason it feels smooth.

Just spent a few minutes researching this thread to do a little catching-up. Yikes, plenty of issues here!

I gotta say, I am running Muzzy's ROM and the stock kernel, and everything is 100% functional - no issues, no problems, I was just looking to possibly improve things a bit with a Franco kernel. Maybe I should stick with the stock kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] F_T_B:
Safest bet is to keep the stock kernel if you don't want any issues. You're not going to get any of the benefits though.
