Nice. I don't mind about the upper stuff Cruz I never use them. But the lowers I do. Maybe I will try dropping 384 down a bit. Did you try lowering 729 and 1036?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Negatory. Just letting SR do its thing on those. If I understand it correctly, when you move the nominal below the calibrated with SR on then it moves it to the next SR "bracket" and you risk it pushing it too low.

Edit: Testing out inverted defaults (1036/729) for hispeed/input_boost freqs so far seems to have taken things to a whole new level of smooth! :good::D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
Tomorrow i am gonna test 384-1036 (537/729 input/hispeed, with 537 max screen off). All stock voltages (SR controlled). Gonna see if 384 min is really smother than 192. Btw, I am using 384gpu. Stock r298 gov settings.

:) :D :laugh: :good:

Edit: Hey Os, I just cleared my UV settings and rebooted and I am still getting 990 and 1090 as my SR controlled voltages.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DigiK:
I battled this issue also, and found the minfree settings were getting some really wonky values written to them. I couldn't trace the source, but the first thing I did was remove the old JRummy 00check and 05minfree scripts from init.d. I replaced 05minfree with a new script to directly write the values and chmod the permissions to read only to prevent additional meddling.

#!/system/bin/sh
chmod 664 /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
echo "2048,3072,4096,20730,24185,27640" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
chmod 444 /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree

Franco uses some pretty aggressive values; and if you're a heavy multitasker, it could hurt your battery life and cause latency, since the lowmemorykillah is constantly using CPU cycles looking for apps to kill. The settings should leave you with about 100MB free to Android at all times, effectively using your RAM and keeping you above lag thresholds. I've tested 2 GNexes all day with these settings, and the sustained performance and fluidity has been second to none.

Franco, r295 still occasionally starts spamming logcat after a number of hours uptime: Tuna PowerHAL(1565): Error writing to /sys/devices/system/ device /cpufreq/interactive/boostpulse: No such device. Have you seen this in your testing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Langduscher:
Performance governor, yes :)

I tried interactive with all the tweaks, with no big difference (but speed). I can get through the day with performance governor, and blow all other phones wawy with speed :cool: I'm happy with this set up :)

Going to test 537 as max screen off freq today though. Thanks for all your (and 0sm0sis's) testing and sharing the results :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StormIceX:
this work with jb and latest nightly? i can't play with rayman because the game crash everytime and i paid 2.69€ for this
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Schneewitzchen:
I think this error is because you use another governor than interactive. So the system cannot find the file to write to. But i think Franco mentioned that this makes no problem at all.

Its normal, everyone has this. If you don't want the screen to glitch for a second when booting you need to clear Franco app data and leave omap gamma unchecked and gives a cleaner look to your boot up :) then set up your other settings. Youl find the slow down is for only a second or two.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yoncy:
Some feedback. Starting with 295 version visible improvements in scrolling lists (should be considered to the next milestone if will exist). 295 also good battery life. But 298 drains battery a lot, specially on 3G, always red on battery drain 35-40% just browsing. Tried different kernel governors the same. For me that i have around 120 apps installed ondemand governor fits the best. No undervolting, smartreflex enabled, with a small overclock until 1305.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wavedashdoc:
So this is interesting. I just flashed the newest Bug-less beast 10-31 and r295. Check out these settings it defaults with. I did not set these at all.

So with a little under voting and this new rom not only is this the fastest experience I have ever had on the phone but the best battery life too.

Interesting to note as well. But with these settings its idling at 192 and 384 instead of jumping from 192 to 729.

Your thoughts Franco? Cause this is impressive.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boki2911:
What should have greater value,input boost/hispeed
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
I'd say high speed should be higher go for 729mhz and input boost at 537mhz. Nice and smooth and good performance while saving battery. Use 537 for screen off max speed too. Thanks to yellow or os for their recommendations ;):thumbup:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nuwan32:
This is because you need to flash Franco kernel. Right now your on the stock kernel that comes with the ROM, every time you flash a ROM you need to flash Franco kernel over. How do I know it's not Franco? Franco doesn't have 700 or 1200 mhz steps
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] asim0:
Then could you please give the choice to have milestones only notification?

Thanks for the hard work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wavedashdoc:
I flashed Franco kernel. It says Franco kernel r295 and in the settings > about phone it says Franco kernel.

So yeah I'm on Franco kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
nuwan's right. Your settings are jacked up. The best thing to do is clear Franco's app data, then reboot and reinstall r298 (even if you installed it once, doing it again will never hurt anything). Then let it boot up again and you should see a big difference in the settings there. Your above_hispeed_freq, go_hispeed_load, min_sample_time, and timer_rate are all Google's defaults. Which means it's using the stock ROM's settings, not Franco's kernel settings. So again, it's very important that you clear Franco's app data first, then flash. And you should see a world of a difference. Also, install Busybox and reinstall the latest binaries into /xbin (not /bin) using Smart Install. You may have done this already, but do it again--trust me. Enjoy! :)

Psycho mentioned some issues with the PGM and r298, but there are a ton of people using it right now with the latest and it's fine. Try clearing PGM's app data, then reboot, then uninstall it and reboot again. Then install it and see how it does. You should be able to get it working. :)

(And yes, I am that IT computer tech that constantly asks "Have you tried turning it off and on again?") :):D:laugh::good:

Off topic:

Franco, I really hope you will still develop for the Galaxy Nexus because here in Italy the a**holes at LG are just trying to rip us off, officially pricing the Nexus 4 at 549€ for the 16GB version. That's roughly the equivalent of 700$. :crying: Sure, we might still buy from UK or Germany, or anywhere else, but that's really a bad behaviour... I'm for sure not going to support such a company.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trailblazerz11:
I never really cared for LG but its a business.

$700 is a bit high but 500-700 is generally the subsidized price of a high-end phone unlocked these days.

It is only so cheap on playstore because heavily subsidized by Google

I guessing selling Nexus 4 @ $349 via Playstore covers maybe hardware cost, might even be a loss but Google's model is

to make money off PlayStore.

Google is thinking Playstore must be selling movies, books, music on top of apps to cover the margin which is why it won't sell Nexus in some countries.

If it's not sold via Playstore then it would be like every other phone out there 500-700 range.

Even in the States, T-mobile sells it at 499 I believe unlocked.

My point is just because Google sells it so low on Play, doesn't mean the manufacturer can sell it that low, it is a high-end phone after all.

Sorry for off-topic... bored waiting for nexus4 and with Gnex so smooth and stable with franco.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
Happened to me like 9-10 times siince I flashed 298, plus PGM issues. IDK if I am doing something wrong, but my phone just hates 298, but flies with M6 or trinity a67. Most of the times, my phone just goes into bootloops on flashing 298.

How can u run 2100mah if the maguro has a max of 2000mah extended battery? I assume u r running toro... ? If yes, then running performance gov +lte will no way in hell allow u 2 get those results. So my assumption is wrong, u r running maguro. N ur battery is 2000mah, which is just basically a 16% increase in battery life. So in theory u should be getting 3.5hrs screen on stock battery, which by itself is pretty believable, but becomes mind-bogglingly unbelievable when u say u had performance gov @1.2G. 1.2G can no way give u 3.5hrs, or everything I have learned in the last 2 yrs is wrong, n my life has lost all its meaning. I m gonna go into a corner n sulk for the rest of the day. Seriously.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
Out of curiosity, did you have the same issues with r292 or r295?

Here's a 2100 mah extended battery for GSM. And here's a 4000mah extended battery for GSM. ;) But besides that, running Performance at 1.2GHz just doesn't seem right (or smart) to me. But it's up to him and if he likes it that way and can get decent results, then cool beans.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
130Mbps! *drool*

lol. All I was sayin' was you can't say 2100mah doesn't exist. Doesn't mean they don't suck, just means they exist. ;)

And you should try r292/r295 and see how they stack up. They're faster than M6, but I don't think anyone reported PGM issues with them. I'm curious what's actually causing the issues with your r298 and PGM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
i will do that then...i just dont like going to the website n downloading, franco just spoiled us so bad with his app. :p :p . #firstworldproblems lol :D:D:D

Not only PGM, 298 in general is pretty unstable for me. Half the time it doesnt boot, I get SODs n whatnot. tried with RBJ 10-16 n RBJ 11-01. Really cant figure out whats wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AutomaticFailure27:
I have the official Samsung 2100mah battery and the stock 1850mah. So, I'm not quite sure what you are getting at?

http://bit.ly/SBILlg - Further proof
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
By any chance did you change the scheduler to BFQ? Franco says BFQ may be causing some of the bootloops and SODs. I know it's annoying, but try clearing Franco's app data (and all other programs/init.d scripts that may be changing settings) and reboot so you go back to totally stock r298. That will give you stock Franco settings and Interactive/Deadline. Also, were you trying 384 or 512 gpu? I believe you that you're having problems, I am just trying to figure out why. r298 runs incredibly for most people, so we don't want to leave you out in the dark all alone. There's no reason we can't get you running on smooth glass as well.

:):D :laugh::good:

That was psycho's point. Sprint is CDMA (called Toro). GSM (called Maguro) is different. Why they made junk different, who freakin' knows. It wasn't really a big deal, I don't think. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _chanstar_:
It happened to me when flashing the latest BB. You can do what yellowdie advised of or simply uncheck Setup CPU and Governor Control on Boot and then reboot.

It should apply Franco Kernel settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
BFQ was causing boot loops rarely but that's impossible now since Franco's app sets the scheduler once the OS is already booted. Don't recall it causing SODs though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slvrarrow:
No problems for me - I've only ever used BFQ
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
hmmmm interesting. I will explain further(though its friday, with only 3 more hrs to go, really dont wanna crack a nut here, but anyhoo....). My phone boots fine 50% of the time. When it does, its fine for 2-3 mins, when all my apps start up, until apps start geting superuser. When franco app gets superuser(I know when it does cuz my colors change to 110,110,170 n usb fast charge notif shows up), my phone reboots within 5secs. So yes, I did surmise there must be something wrong with the app settings, n i made sure everything is set to default n whatnot, n i flashed it again n rebooted. same thing. somethg with the app is not playing nice with the kernel. I did clear the data for the app once, but to no avail. I m doing that again now, n will report.

Ok, so thanks, clearing app data helped this time. Oh well. Weird thing with 298 though. In device monitor, the frequency keeps jumping between 1228 n 192 on its own, w/o me touching anything. should that be happening? plus do i need to set any voltage for 537 n 192? or SR do its shiz?

Should I be using interactive/wheatley?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boki2911:
go r300 series

and of course some new inserts ff
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
It jumps a little bit because its reading for 6 files in the background thread and then posting the results to the UI thread every 3 seconds, but its also app's fault, it has some major design flaws. Current app re-write is roughly at 30-40% but it looks much better in terms of usefulness and general stability. More news to come soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
That's awesome franco! Can't wait to see! :)

One request though: Can the Device Monitor page have related frequencies and voltages back on the same line (ie. one line for CPU freq + MPU voltage; one line for GPU freq + CORE voltage)? It's been a fair bit harder to read/use since you changed that. :good:

it depends every phone is different in every user has different ways they use their phone. I'm a heavy user and have found ondemand/deadline(IO scheduler) is best for me. you can't listen to really everyone they can just guide you you have to try them out because it depends on how u use ur phone. it really helps to buy Franco's app in the market it is amazing and worth every single penny just the fact that you can change your kernel on the fly instantly is worth it ,let alone all the other tweaks available. By the way UBER has a guide he uses and he's really good at kernel settings. Good luck :cowboy:

---------- Post added at 03:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 AM ----------

the frequencies are jumping around because it's reading quite a few files in the background and showing you on the user interface every few seconds that its doing it. other than that I don't know I'm still learning also so I hope that helps I NEVER have problems with Franco's kernels (lucky I guess).
