Holy **** I dislike the stock kernel the buttery goodness of Franco kernel is calling me .. Sadly I'm on 4.2 and I don't want to roll back. Franco do you think you'll find a workaround for the lag in Need for Speed: Most Wanted? Once again thank you for all your hard work

Leave it on. Better safe than sorry when your data gets corrupted due to a sudden reset
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SpecRek9:
Francisco, what does it feels to be a kernel rockstar? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johno86:
I was getting data corruption after running it for 3 days so I resorted back to having it on. No significant boost from when I was playing around with my phone. I was trying to figure out what was wrong with the phone and forgot I had fsync off checked; unchecked it and rebooted the phone and the data issues went away for the time being. You can leave it off I suppose until you start running into issues, but I would just leave it on if you don't need more speed for whatever reason.

good luck!

Suckaz! I'm all about the bleeding edge. I'm still on the pulled r301 with JB 4.2, watching my battery burn off in 12 hours. It's so smooth and fast I don't even care and have no problem with the reduced battery life while we wait for Franco to rebase it properly. :p:D

I tried this kernel, and I don't like it. It is really laggy when you first turn on your phone, and the camera is quite laggy now. Tried different CPU and governor settings.

Deep sleep does work though

Damn now I want to go back to stock 4.2 kernel... How?

you can probably flashboot back the 4.2 kernel image by downloading the ota zip file

Take your time, Franco!

It's a point-release, folks - there are many changes afoot. Have any of you ever moved house? To a different country? With a different language?

I, for one, would rather Franco settled in first and at least got over his jet-lag before dragging who-knows how many strange and barely-documented changes into his otherwise great kernel :)

Even if he pulled another miracle, I doubt many of us would be happy without the usual "customisations" we do to our phones, many of which won't be 4.2 compatible for some time either. Let's not even mention app compatibility...

To the impatient, I say: If you MUST use 4.2 NOW, download the Takju image from Google - and don't come running when your favourite features are missing.

I choose not to live life on the 'bleeding edge.' Those that do, had better have top health cover :) Your lack of planning and gravitas do not consitute an 'emergency' on the part of XDA!

[Clarification: this is NOT directed at osm0sis or yellowdie - who do sterling service in testing Franco's swords by regularly leaping on them while they are still glowing red from the forge :) :) I didn't even notice he used the same expression. I had to go looking for it!]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
I don't think I've seen even one person complaining or being impatient, so this rant wasn't really necessary. And since you seem to be implying I'm the impatient one with your "bleeding edge" comment, you clearly don't know me. I was actually being dead serious though I said it in a comical tone. I AM perfectly happy with r301 while Boss Man does his magic because I sure as hell can't stand stock colors and I don't want anything but franco.Kernel on my device :). Anyway, I think everyone here can agree with your overall sentiment. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chickentuna:
Long story short, No. You can make it work but deep sleep is an issue right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChazzMatt:
IF 4.2 is so different, but still called Jelly Bean, will Franco be able to do a kernel that works with both 4.1.x and 4.2? Or is he going to have to do two versions for it to work right?

Or maybe he just does 4.2 compatibility and 4.1.x people will be urged to upgrade...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wynnded:
He's working at it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChazzMatt:
I know. I'm not asking "when" or saying he can't do it. I'm asking if it's going to be possible to do ONE version that is compatible with 4.1 and 4.2? I don't want more work for Franco to have to keep up with two parallel "Jelly Bean" kernels.

I'm asking out of concern for Franco.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lonnyrs:
Franco, about the issue with the camera sensor, if I have a different app replacing the stock, is the open and close method upon reboot still valid?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thracks:
The hotplug is not stored there any more.

It's in /sys/module/dsscomp/parameters/hotplug_enabled

To set it on boot, create an init.d script that echoes a value of 1 to this file.

Change your DPI back to something standard like 240 or 320, then clear your data/cache for the Market app. Reboot and things will work fine.

---------- Post added at 09:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 PM ----------

The Android OS issue is not kernel-related. I have done extensive experimentation with multiple ROMs/kernels/radios/etc., and all of the 4.0.3 ROMs demonstrate this problem regardless of the combination.

Tl;dr: It ain't Franco.

Try flashing the primekk15 bootloader in fastboot and pairing it with the XXKK6 radio. This has fixed the issue for me. Yes, I know Android 4.0.3 "should" be running the primekk15 loader.

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 PM ----------

The power consumption is negligible going from 350 to 700MHz, and 700MHz may allow the phone to return to sleep more quickly after completing a task. Long story short, it may actually be better battery life than 350MHz.

---------- Post added at 09:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:47 PM ----------

The camera sensor is not likely to be an issue. I wouldn't worry about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drawde40599:

Hey Franco,

Were the colors adjusted between build 11 and 12? I'm noticing that it's a lot more blue than it was before.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] billykxda:
Reporting back on CNA 4.1.2 with r300 - still perfect. In fact, r300 is a clear improvement over the very-excellent r298.

If you choose to run 4.2 right now, it looks like you definitely need to be patient as the pieces take time to fit together.

But for those that are disapointed and moving way back to earlier verisons of ROMs and kernels, you can always just flash a great ROM like CNA 3.8 (or any other recent ultra-stable 4.1.2 ROM), load up all the 4.2 features individually (takes about 2 minutes) and flash r300. This is a killer combo that'll keep a smile on your face while 4.2 ROM and kernel kinks are getting worked out.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
So was anyone else who read JBQs post really disappointed at how closed the N4 sounds? Basically the best AOSP devices are still GN maguro, N7 grouper, and the new N10 manta. I wonder if the ROM being closed means the kernel will too.. could be very bad news indeed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dr Byte:
...or very good news if you happen to think (as I do) that the GN is a perfectly good phone with no intention of upgrading soon because it is already so over-endowed that it will perform well when significantly underclocked! :)

I think the gist of JBQ's post is that if you manage to 'convince' your buildbot to target the N4 platform, you're in for a world of hurt... and reading between the lines, the reason seems to be one of licensing (like the N7).

It's not that the code doesn't exist, it seems to be more a question of the right to release it - and how much of it can be. The stumbling block will be proprietary/trade-secret-laden drivers. Even the 'header' files may 'leak' too much information to competitors.

I'd be more concerned if I were a Nexus S owner... especially if Google do a "Gingerbread" on us again, changing the drivers. Remember GB on the N1/Desire? But that's off-topic.

Looking forward to spending another year with the GN as a mainstream phone :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] veyka:
Kernel can't and won't be closed, (GLPv2 on the kernel side vs apache 2 on most of the rest of android), source for the pre final version of 4.2 that shipped on the n4 is already out and has most likerly been updated to match the final version already.

I personally think that the n4 will hit aosp sooner rather than later.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] renaud:
They cannot claim that the nexus 4 is a true developer phone if there is no source. So I guess source will appear soon or LG won't make any nexus anytime anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] creeve4:
I have a sick feeling in my gut that the Nexus program is moving away from a developer phone program and closer to a mainstream AOSP for the (less than competent) masses program...

Quotes like this make it seem even more likely (the only users I know that could be "confused" by an sd card are the type of users that buy products just because they have an apple on them).

Many people suggested Franco's Kernel cause it really does save batter life. So i've installed it yesterday and so far my battery is still the same i mean no changes. After i installed it i didn't change/touch/install anything cause i thought all i have to do is install and it will do its job. It is my first time to install a custom kernel so i really don't have any idea how to use it. Many people says experimenting is the magic word but how can i experiment if i don't know how it works i mean one wrong move and i might ruin my phone. I know i shouldn't install something if don't know how to use it but the point is i'm willing to learn. Begging, please help me or should i say teach me :D :( Thanks in advance :D

P.S ive installed Nightlies and i am running 4.1.1 yakju version. Might help, i guess?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:

---------- Post added at 01:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 PM ----------

Agreed. Not upgrading to Nexus 4, skipping it. Will see what Nexus comes end of 2013. :)

Part of it is I just bought two Galaxy Nexus phones in July -- about $800 with shipping and tax.

The other part is the Nexus 4 specs aren't THAT much better compared to the Nexus phone I have in my hand... :cool:

Quad core vs dual core, yeah but I can't see how that alone is worth another $400 each... (total cost)

4.7" vs 4.65" screen? Still 720p display resolution.

2100 mAh battery? I already have a 2000 mAh battery with NFC (see post above). And my dual core with 2000 mAh will last longer than a quad core with 2100 mAh. ;)

Android 4.2? I'll have that also.

Nothing overly compelling in the Nexus 4 to shell out more money right now for another phone that is only a little bit better.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] icepuente:
While I do agree with pretty much all of your statements, just because its a quad core device doesn't mean it uses more battery. The architecture on s4 SoC is much more efficient in the way it operates.

N4 also has 2GB of ram instead of GNex's 1GB but i will hold it still for a long time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpokwsths:
Also, higher resolution screen (1280x768) with higher subpixel density. Also 5-6 times better GPU. Also much better battery life (lower consumption & bigger battery). Also better camera, also better build quality, also louder speaker and earpiece and many many many more alsos. Nexus 4 is the best smartphone of the present day.

The question is: "Do I feel that GNex is slow and inadequate for me? Do I need to change it?".

The answer for me is: "Hell noooooo, its still blazing fast and smooth".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] buggerman:
N4 looks great.. My only problem is that it's made by LG.. They did that awful job with the Optimus 2x.. Still haunts me..! Such potential that device had.. They kept it to GB.. No upgrades at all..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChazzMatt:
I'm pretty sure my dual core running 1.2. GHz on a 2000 mAh battery is still going to outlast a quad core 1.5GHz on a 2100 mAh battery.

The batteries are almost equal -- or did you not notice that? That was my point. Which you ignored, in your answer.

Even a dual core 1.2 GHz vs dual core 1.5 GHz on equal batteries would probably show the 1.2 GHz is the winner. But dual core vs quad core, with higher GHz, both running approximately equal batteries? The dual core will win. I don't care how "efficient" the quad core architecture is.

That's why Google/LG put a 2100 mAh battery in the Nexus 4, instead of last year's 1700 mAh battery.. That quad core is going to suck more battery than a dual core... By me having a 2000 mAh battery now (on a dual core), I've already done that "Nexus 4" -type upgrade and MORE.

Hi Team,

i am very much satisfied with franco kernel r295 (performance and battery wise - thanks to franco and osmosis + yellowdie for their inputs). should i upgrade to r300 (is it worth it?) or stick with r295?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
not always. the nexus 7 has 5 cores(quad core + a fifth low power core) and gets spectacular battery life. it runs on the low power core until it needs more, even then each of the quad cores will kick in only when needed. its not all the cores running at the same time.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mpokwsths:
Quite scientific arguments! :D

You couldn't be more wrong.

1) Ti OMAP 4460 is build using 45nm tech. S4 Pro is built with 28nm. Huge efficiency benefits.

2) Quad Core means it will rarely throttle to the higher speeds. Don't be surprised if most of the time it will operate at 500Mhz and low voltages while our GNex for the same task will be at full speed all the time.

3) Lower consumption screen. AMOLEDs are known for higher consumption than the latest IPS screens.

4) A Nexus 4 with a hypothetical 1750mAh battery would outperform your GNex with the 2000mAh battery.

There have already been many NExus 4 reviews with battery tests that prove me right. I don't say it will have twice the battery life. It will just have a little more battery life. Period.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
r300 puts a rocket in your pocket. :D:p

By far the best performance and battery when I was testing it. I honestly think it's the ultimate extent to which the JB 4.1.x kernel can be pushed. And just like r196 was very nearly the best the ICS kernel could be, of course this sadly happens just in time to start from scratch with the next iteration, the JB 4.2.x kernel, but it still stands! :good:

GALAXY NEXUS BATTERY

Talk time:

Note the dual core Galaxy Nexus (with 1750 mAh battery) has more powered-up time than the quad core Nexus 4 (with 2100 mAh stock battery) -- even with its piddly stock 1750 mAh battery. I have a 2000 mAh Galaxy Nexus extended battery, so SCIENCE proves I really win! ;)

My whole point was my 2000 mAh battery-powered Galaxy Nexus will last longer than quad core Nexus 4 on 2100 mAh stock battery.

Nexus 4 Battery Life Not So Good
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
I wasn't thrilled with LG doing the next Nexus at first, but everything I've read is that LG makes really good hardware and sucky software. Well that's the beautify of the Nexus program. LG's software doesn't matter one bit! Google handles all the software (AOSP). So let LG make great hardware and let Google make great software. Now, do I think LG is better than Sammy? I don't know. I REALLY want the quad-core with 2GB of ram and an IPS+ screen, but sadly I'll skip the N4 and wait for the next one in the future. I would LOVE an HTC Nexus!!!! :D

Upgrade!!!! Like Os said, r300 is one of the best 4.1.x kernels ever. And rightly so, it will probably be the last 4.1.x kernel. 300 is the perfect stopping mark in my book (but I'm not Boss Man!). But I think everything else will be 4.2 stuff. So yes, upgrade to r300 and then wait for 4.2 (ROM and kernel) to come out in full and then upgrade to that in a week or so. That's what I'm doing at least.

:):D:laugh::good:
