vfs at 1000 was only for r282, we're back down at 300 for r283+ but with the more aggressive lowmemorykiller values from way back (even before r276 I discovered from my back-flashing), and r284 has some extra magic in it that improves things a little more again, even though I don't feel it's quite back to being as snappy as r276/7.

Battery life is epic in r284. I just had my phone unplugged for over 2h 30m and it deep slept 94% with "0%" battery drain according to BBS when I first looked at it 5min ago, and now still only 0.3% which is probably more accurate. Still, best I've ever seen on my device. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VoicesX:
Great work franco, my battery has 38% after 1 day 11h 9m 16s.

I did post it when the GN arrived my home :)

Ok nightly 11 is out. Sorry for the users that asked me for NTFS and CIFS support, I didn't had much time and probably won't have much until next week as I'm moving houses in two days. Enjoy this release, I hope it's majorly improved ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Thanx! Btw. nice kernel string! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Redflea:
Thanks, Franco, just installed and my biceps are larger and my hair seems thicker... ;)

Seriously, really appreciate the great work on this kernel and your updater...

If we had the hotplug enabled in 10, do we need to disable/re-enable it in the new app due to the method change?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Silent8Strike:
For anyone wondering what Colors+ changes I had a chance to compare my phone with Franco's kernel to a stock Nexus. The whites are much less blue, far closer to true white. There was a slight increase in saturation as well, but the biggest difference seemed to be in grey, which looked lighter and far better on Franco's kernel. Overall a great improvement over stock. Thanks Franco for this awesome kernel!

The lag on lockscreen is WAY better, but still some left :/

The previous init.d file doesn't work anymore, but yes disable/enable it in the app again.

Ahah i figured someone would say that, and I got the answer for you: the screen_on, screen_off omap functions are exactly as they in the stock kernel, so I got nothing to do with it.

Thanks for the update...Go to try :)

Download with your app,flashing and report!

:D

Just for report with your nightly #10 about battery drain,great for me:

Antutu...Bad... :D :p

Why people complain about battery drain :confused: :D

I'll flashes your latest nightly...Some performance improvement?

I read the changelog but no understand all :D

i think interactive is better than conservative?

with #10 i had slightly higher scores in antutu(6200 vs 5900 with #11)

maybe conservative is better for bettery performance?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DivinityCycle:
Just to help people out, I've compiled together some stuff, since this thread is 250+ pages, makes it very annoying to pull out the useful info.

Franco's kernel is UNIVERSAL and will work on both CDMA and GSM versions of this phone.

When updating from 4.0.0, 4.0.1, or 4.0.2 to 4.0.3, you will want to make sure your baseband and bootloader are up to date. This is a 1 time process.

The bootloader is the same for GSM and LTE versions of the device.

Bootloader is a separate partition and does not contain user data, so updating does NOT mean you lose data/apps/etc.

The latest Bootloader is PRIMEKL01, you can find it here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20725207&postcount=2835

You CANNOT just flash this in ClockWord Mod, it has to be pushed to your device from a computer via Android Debug Bridge (ADB). When I rooted my phone I had to do something similar, so hopefully you have seen it. Even if you haven't the package includes pretty much all the stuff you need. Do NOT ask about that process here, this is a kernel thread.

The Baseband radios are not universal, GSM and CDMA versions are different!

The LTE device radios are flashable from Clockwork Mod, get them here:

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/12864-radiosgalaxy-nexus-all-available-radiosbasebands/

Latest version of the CDMA is EK06.

Latest LTE radio is EK04.

The GSM basebands may be a bit more complicated, but I found a good thread about them here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1405345

Anyone else is welcome to post about them ASAP :P

Both Bootloader and baseband can have an effect on your battery life, as posted elsewhere in this thread.

Franco's Kernel Updater app is on the official Android marketplace for $1.85 USD here:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.franco.kernel

It contains some handy stuff for tweaking settings, and the money goes to Franco, so if you like his work, buy it to support him!

if i update this bootloader i will loose data?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boki2911:
Does this mean that it is better for you compared to r284 r276,My favorite is the r276 lmt so ask

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cedricj:
Hello,

I have a weird issue.

I am running the last JB nightly build kernel on a stock JB rom.

I cannot hear any sound when connected to my Car Bluetooth (GOLF with 9w7 bluetooth module). everybody can hear me but i barely can hear people talking to me. A2DP works fine, only phone sound is very low...

Is anybody experiencing similar issue?

How can i revert to stock kernel (Just want to make sure it is not this specific kernel? cant find any useful link for it?

Thank you so much for your help!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] safendi:
is betterer r276 or 283? in performance and battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gianton:
Can you share a screenshot with your Lux Auto Brightness settings?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dannejanne:
Showing screen-on time is one thing. That does not necessarily mean awesome battery life. Not many says what they actually have done under those hours. I can easily get 4-5 hours screen on time depending on usage. Just showing a screen on time of 5 hours means that maybe other components haven't been used much at all.

Which governor are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] plumed:
Hi franco,

Love your work and your kernels and really appreciate all you do! Have a quick question. Late last night I used your app to flash the newest nightly, and upon rebooting, now it is stuck at the google logo with the unlock sign. I can't get it to go into recovery or anything, just the logo. I thought it might go after a few minutes, then I fell asleep until morning and when I woke up, it was still on that screen, even after a few battery pulls.

Is there anything I can do to restore or rollback? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lippol94:
I was about to ask if you if you already have added this commit to your kernel:

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/24324/

Not an expert but it does seem related to the reported bootpulse error
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
That extreme drop was probably caused by exactly what was mentioned here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32634833&postcount=29324.

Boost is NOT on by default. Boost puts your phone into the same state as using the Performance governor: your phone runs at max speed non-stop. That's fine if you want a "boost" of performance for a limited time, but I really do not think you should run that at all times. That'll kill your battery and not gain a ton of performance over using something less.

INPUT_BOOST is enabled by default in Franco's kernel and what that does is whenever you touch the screen, it gives it a little boost up from the minimum so you don't feel the lag from lower speeds.

And above_hispeed_delay is fine at it's default of 100,000.

For more details on these and for great settings, check out this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32541519&postcount=29097

:):D:laugh::good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I took a look into that code but I dont see a single good thing out of it. The HAL takes care of the boostpulses and it does a fairly good job with it. Truth that it can be improved and thats one of my goals for the series after M6, but I doubt its gonna be any way related to that or any CM code :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Antob125:
I don't get it. Boost reads as 0. You guys are saying it's an on/off switch meanwhile when I click it it's a number input.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Boost is one thing, input boost is another.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
Like Franco just said, Boost is [On or Off] / [Yes or No] / [1 or 0] (those are all the same thing). So by default, it's 0 (off), but you CAN change it to 1 (on) if you want to run at your max speed non-stop.

Input_boost_freq allows you to set a specific frequency (like 1036800 or 1036 for short) that the phone jumps to when you touch the screen. Input_boost itself is turned on deep within the kernel (using PowerHAL) and cannot be turned off from your end.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mgamerz:
No over clocking or additional settings but on milestone 5, when I hang up from a call on Bluetooth the phone rebooted.

boostpulse spam

I tried two governors: interactive and ondemand (using Franco power mode "Full-Power" and "Balanced"). Both give the same result: "boostpulse: No such device" spam.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChazzMatt:
I have almost identical, except 1305 max. Everything else is the same. 1305, a little faster than stock -- the prudent overclocking as 1305 is the limit Smartfeflex can handle in this kernel.

second is a bug in your app

when you [UNTICK turn logger off] and then [TICK turn logger off]

exit the app and reopen it

the entire option "turn off logger" will be gone as shown in screenshot

until phone reboots, it comes back.

Alright let's play a game (who doesn't love games?). I've been thinking about when should I release Milestone 6 and I haven't hit a consensus with myself. So this time I'll give you, the users, the power to make it happen sooner, or later. All you have to do to is make #francoKernel into the trending tags on Google+. Share it with your friends, family, girlfriend, boyfriend, Obama, NASA, just make it trending. If #francoKernel appears on the trending list I'll drop Milestone 6 in that very second. Show me what you got :)

Last reset was MPU Watchdog Timer reset (PRM_RSTST=0x8)

That wasn't a kernel reboot. Something triggered the Watchdog and it rebooted. I don't know what triggered it, sorry.

About the app yes thats normal. It detects if the logcat file is there, and if its not the option disappears.

Battery drains really fast

Since r283 my battery drains very fast. In the morning it seems doing fine but in the afternoon it goes down very fast. Today was the first time my phone shut off before going home after work (using r284).

When on the charger it never goes into deep sleep, even when the screen is off (is this normal behavior?) I'm not using fast usb charging. It stays at 729MHz all the time (my screen-off max frequency).

Edit: it is connected to my computer's usb-port, so it probably doesn't go into deep sleep anyway.

Full changelog:

Milestone 6:

* Merged all patches related to 4.1.2

* Fixed the famous data drops by tricking Smartreflex to not overly calibrate certain hardware parts

* Added custom changes to lowmemorykiller driver to force the device to have a certain amount of free RAM to sustain smoothness over the time

* Made the launcher unkillable by the lowmemorykiller driver to prevent redraws or widget crapping itselfs

* Added a new governor called dyninteractive - this is similar to interactive in 99% but instead this new governor dynamically adapts its own tunables and settings depending on the system load.

* Increased Interactive governor kernel priority thread for the frequency change task - more smoothness

* Added a new tuneable for Interactive governor called input_boost_freq. Path is here: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/interactive/input_boost_freq

* Added all TCP Congestion algorithms presents in the kernel. To check all algorithms run this command on the Terminal/ADB Shell: sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_available_congestion_control

To change the algorithm: sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=NAME_OF_THE_ALGORITHM

* BFQ IO scheduler updated from v4 to v5

* Added other smaller but still relevant changes available on my github repository

No worries was messing anyway ;) For now I have moved to Rasbean jelly and I gotta say its sooo smooth and I can kind of see why these people keep going on about these built in toggles and a build tweaks tab in the settings to set up the toggles and nav bar stuff. I prefer the pure stock theming in minco and the power menu is better in minco. Battery life about the same but rasbean definatley is just a fraction smoother.
