I keep getting 'download failed' trying to fetch nightlies from the updater app!?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hasnol143:
So flashed #60...I honestly don't see a difference between level 1 and level 3 for sound, but the sound is nice and loud so i'm happy!

BTW franco, I used your color setting but i changed the gamma value to 0 instead of 5 for blue, I found that 5 was way too bluish...my grays didn't look right (or i have no clue what true colors are....)

---------- Post added at 03:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:46 PM ----------

I had that too like 5 times in a row, just erase the failed downloads and keep trying you'll get it at some point.

beats audio mods for galaxy nexus

Hi Franco,

i've found a thread on how to port beats audio mods to non htc device Beats Audio&Xloud(2.3+up)03/03/12 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1525226

could you implement those mods on your next kernel? it would be great because the galaxy nexus audio quality is poor and if we can have beats audio installed to galaxy nexus, it would be very good improvement
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
1 - Beats Audio is more placebo than anything. Grab an equalizer and you'll get better experience

2 - That's not at kernel level

3 - Galaxy Nexus audio quality is the best I've seen on Android devices and I've tried a lot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arzbhatia:
Bump! Anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
@franco is there a way to force hotplug when playing music?

I like the smoothness of 700 minimum but it eats a lot more battery than 350 when playing music with screen off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bradm23:
Is anyone getting a weird issue when answering a call? I swipe the ring to unlock and there is a few second delay before the call starts. This didn't happen on previous releases and I'm using r60 now. I also get this on glados's latest release, so I'm guessing it might have to do with the new sounds tweaks? Any input from anyone on this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atsavlis:
Lol, nope, standard gsm battery...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshndroid:
i just come from a htc sensation with beats and I have to say there is a difference for better sound quality, especially with the studio beats headphones (just digressing from thread here a bit). I also have to say the nexus audio quality is average, the external speaker is a thousand times better than a sensation but the headphones experience is better on a sensation... my 2c anyway...

as for the nightly... as of r60 I had failed downloads as well, I just kept trying and got a goodie.. may I suggest that your updater app be able to list the md5 for the latest nightly, I think this would be a awesome addition and if it could somehow automatically check that would be even better. I like to check md5 for nightlies as they are nightlies... please and thank you for the awesome work!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atsavlis:
No one is replying because this topic has been discussed and answered by Franco many times. Read back a couple of pages...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arzbhatia:
Hmm, I figured it out. Sorry! And thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I have some 70€ AKG headphones that I bought few months ago I can safely say this GN is a beast when coming to Audio. The beats headphones been tore down by audiophiles few times, they are not as good as people think. Nevertheless the kernel ain't the place to ask for Beats Audio stuff, thats userspace business :)

About the md5 that can be arranged.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hasnol143:
Pretty good score!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alphaola:
The beat audio thingy seems optimised for hip hop .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshndroid:
Yes I did read that in reviews but I got them almost half price for new, genuine article so took a dive... Anyway, yes that is rom related...

Thanks for listening to the md5 idea.... Appreciate it mate!

Yepp, there is something in the M1 that drains a lot the battery.

Yesterday I was totally crazy cause I was getting only 2 hours and a bit of screen time after following each recommendation to assure a good battery live..

So today I wiped everything and installed AOKP M4..with stock kernel I'm now at 46% and 2:46 of screen time (I'm gonna see where I can get and will post screenshots).

Franco's Kernel is amazingly fast and responsible, but the Milestone is not battery reliable for me.. :S

By the way, I'm having for now the same battery live that my wife's iPhone 4.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hasnol143:
Then you should flash #60, it adds better battery consumption while the screen is on, it should help alot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] landale:
Just saw an update to GlaDOS roll out that fixes the delayed touch sounds so I am sure it won't be long until we see them fixed here as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Later yes, going for a few beers with Benchmark & Tuning developer tonight :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] renaud:
Actually there are multiple versions of this SoC, and the one in the the phone seems to be the standard one, which means 1200mhz.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sishgupta:
Best part of the new sounds control mod is that it works without restarting the music app.

although I found I set it in the app earlier and it didn't really apply. So I started listening to music and then I was like this is weak... started playing with it and set it to 3 again and then it was nice and loud.

I dunno if that's a bug? Not sure how to reproduce it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SpOuK-3-:
Hi, tried to install the latest r60 nightly... it work except for the audio delay... Now I flashed back to M1 but in your apps, in "Increase maximum sound..." looks like I can't insert more than one digits... before going to r60 I was able to insert 10 ... now it's stuck to one digit.... tried to clear cache ... uninstall the apps... nothing work... You have a clue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nklenchik:
Maybe someone can answer this. I've always wondered why our values are what they are. Any way we would be able to play around with them like maybe

250min

500

750

1000

1200

1350 max

Idk how that works but just a thought
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] renaud:
Is it really? I have a better score than you at a lower frequency

In other words, stop with meaningless benchmarks

Running r60, cm9, and supercharger v6 with service.jar modifications.

This is as fast and lag free as I've ever seen my phone since I purchased it back in Dec.

:-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
Yes, I noticed since r60. I was reporting a slowly typing before to Francisco and now I know that was caused by keystrokes haptic feedback enabled. I like to hear the keystrokes cause it help me to identify misclicks but it's. Impossible with r60.

I'm going to revert to r58 or m1 until we got this sound delay fixed.

Tapatalked from my Nexus Prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bradm23:
Is anyone experiencing anything like this? I am using R60 and I am having issues with a 3-4 second lag after answering calls. It also happens when you turn on and off speaker phone, as well as muting the call. Glados 1.2 did the same thing, and I did test FrancoM1 and can confirm that it is not happening. I saw that there is an issue with audio delay in typing, however I am surprised no one has mentioned something like this.

On a positive not, other than the audio issues, R60 is silky smooth (smoothest I've seen so far at 700-1200 On-demand)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
It's something with Ezekeel sound hack, I reverted to M1 for now. I really like keystrokes audio feedback and my keyboard freezes when using r60.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hasnol143:
hey pal, something wrong?

this is my first benchmark in months to compare it with what i used to get with franco #13....i got noticeably better score than the last time (which was around 4000). I wasn't complaining just expressing my gratitude. good for you! you got a higher score! yay!

Volume control did not work on aokp milestone 4 any one have the same problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Antob125:
So now with 1-3 volume what's recommended?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GchildT:
On r60, I my audio pauses when playing music with Max volume through the headphone jack. This only happens with high performance selected and volume on setting 2 or 3. Worked perfectly before with r58 and previous app version with sound set to 13.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrfuzzie23:
first SoD that i have had in a longgg time with franco kernel..

this is with r60..

i wasnt really doing anything i got a text message, responded to it...and put my phone back down and then about 30 minutes later i went to check it and had SoD..

all stock settings, w/ hotplug
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Disable hotplug, that will probably fix your problem.

r61 is out should fix the sound lag when typing, Ezekeel gave out the fix for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrfuzzie23:
k i will but ive always had it enabled in other builds of your kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Sometimes **** happens. Next time get me logs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] landale:
Awesome, is that the only thing changed in r61 or were there any other changes?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nklenchik:
Yeah because I'm not experiencing any lag on r60 when typing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] landale:
I think the lag was only when you have audio feedback enabled on your keyboard.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Antob125:
Is there a recommended volume?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
And you thought right, the problem wasn't the keyboard itself but the haptic feedback sound.

And it's completely fixed now on r61.

Thanks a million Francisco.

Hey how is that you are able to set the me Max volume.... I was running on it perfectly at 14... but now with the latest update I can't go over 9? .... anyone know :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Metallice:
Hey Francisco, on a whim I downloaded Ezeekel's Glados Control app to try with your kernel. Turns out the high performance toggle in his app DOES work with your kernel, where as your updater app doesn't seem to toggle it correctly (at least with my phone). The difference is quite noticeable when it actually toggles correctly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Yes, I did a mistake, fix tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Did you try with my app latest version? I notice a big difference with it on or off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Metallice:
Aha! The market wasn't showing I had an update until I actually clicked on the app link. Awesome! So glad it works now without having to use alsamixer! Thanks for responding... who knows when I would have figured out I had an update? Works great.

Just got my nexus and flashed this kernel after jame bond kernel...I'm loving it , speeds up this laggy phone so much lol bought the updater app immediately =P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Persianity:
i'm curious if anybody has played with their voltage and come up with solid numbers for r61?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mi|enko:
Just like CPUs in a computer, it'll vary. Some people can run lower voltages, or overclock higher, and experience no issues. Others hit their thresholds earlier. Franco's settings are good generic ones, but the best think you can do is go through and test it yourself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] M3drvr:
I thought smart reflex was built into this so you don't need to adjust voltages. Or am I wrong on that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] idan_mo:
waiting for my g-nex to arrive and meanwhile to support your great effort i bought your app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samizad:
It certainly makes a big difference but, not being an audiophile, the toggle seems to just make the sound quieter, not necessarily clearer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] apkanthony:
where can i find a changelog for nightlies?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
Thanks!!!

Wow FransiscoFranco,

I admire your dedication and thanks for your hard work. It seems that every day I can flash an updated version of your kernel or app and the improvements are noticable.

Your support here is also very good. Thanks again.

Flashed r60 yesterday and it performs extremely well. Will give r61 (or whatever the latest version will be at the time of flashing) tonight to give it a swing :D

Will report if I find bugs or strange behaviour.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] duRin90:
Did anybody tested if battery life is lot worse while min freq is 700MHz not 350 when playing music?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wareagle99:
You won't. Other than big changes, nightlies won't get much for changelogs. I would say milestones will get more but he can't spend all of his time writing changelogs!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maisi:
That's true, your phone UVs itself to the best value ;) (not just the MPU, also IVA and the GPU get UVed )

Check his commits ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hosmsdos:
Where are the changlog of nightly?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wareagle99:
Seriously?! The post right above yours mentioned info about the changelog for nightlies. haha I mentioned it about 2 post previous
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qwer23:
Francisco, could you implement a "nightlies" option into your app to make it search for your nightly kernels as well when ticked?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitrox1:
It does in the updated app.

Swyped from my tuna surprise with extra back bacon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maisi:
Could anybody check their IRQ CPU Utilization with the "top" command please ?

Since the 18.5(also with the newest r61) nightly i get a constant CPU IRQ load of about 5-10% without doing anything, on 18.4 i get 0% IRQ load.

I think this could cause some serious battery drain, especially in idle.

It could be caused by the sound patch, but to make sure it's not a problem of my phone it would be great if somebody else could check it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sishgupta:
Had anyone noticed that turning on high performance sound will make the audio level quieter? Turning it off makes it loud again.

I don't know if this is a bug or working as intended. I am only noticing it for the first time in r61 due to the sound control settings being real time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
Anyone else noticed a delay on proximity sensor? I was on a call with a automated service where I should type certain numbers, and every time I return the phone to my ear I accidentally typed some others numbers.

Works as intended, a higher dynamic range leads to a lower volume.

In TV, advertisements are usually louder than the rest because of a lower dynamic range, if you want another example ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitrox1:
When you undervolt on franco's kernel you are adjusting the ranges that the Multi Core Processing Unit (MPU) can choose.

I'm not an expert but I remember this as being the same a HAVS (AVS) a hybrid adaptive voltage scale.

Franco's kernel has default voltage of:

350Mhz 1025mV

700Mhz 1203mV

1000Mhz 1317mV

So if I choose:

350Mhz 825mV

700Mhz 900mV

1000Mhz 1000mV

I have now allowed the MPU to choose voltages from:

350Mhz 825mV-962mV

700Mhz 925mV-1127mV

1000Mhz 1000mV-1127mV

Where as default voltages would be:

350Mhz 962mV-1025mV

700Mhz 1127mV-1203mV

1000Mhz 1127mV-1317mV

Now how this effects the choosing of the right voltage by the MPU, and how much energy is used choosing the right voltage, and whether you are strangling the MPU of voltage, I don't know!

I do know if you go too low very bad things happen, at any step of the scale, so even if 350Mhz is low, and 1000Mhz is "too" low, bad things a foot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
Question:

Running r60 with AOKP M1 I had my phone set to silent mode. I got an email and my notification tone came through although I set the phone to silent.

Is this a bug or am I overlooking some setting. And if it is a bug: is could it be one in the kernel or in the rom?

[EDIT]: Never mind. I had to check "join volumes". It was unchecked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sluflyer06:
Have tried to download r61 14 times and it will not complete successfully. (tried both stock browser and Chrome). Never have problems with other downloads. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sishgupta:
Worked for me 2nd try. Its an ICS issue. the browser you start with doesnt matter because it all gets passed to the ICS downloader.

@FranciscoFranco

Again. The new sound implementation doesn't work for me. I guess i'm the only one. I connect my phone to the AUX jack in my car, therefore i turn the volume all the way up on the phone. Before the new implementation i'd have the volume tweak set to 13 and the High Performance box checked. Worked high volume, nice kick, great sound quality.

New Implementation, same setup, but if i select volume level 2 or 3 the music player stops. Level 1 on this implementation is not nearly comparable to level 13 on the previous one. Can this be corrected? or are we stuck with the new implementation for future non-milestone releases.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sluflyer06:
I thought it couldn't hurt to try another browser...just in case.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zack80:
stupid question, I am under the millestone 1 what it is worth it to spend on the R61?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jericho7:
does r61 contain GPU overclock? I just flashed it and I'm getting little dots and artificats all over my screen
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danielvc:
yes it is overclocked and yes, you need to get milestone 1 without GPU overclock (looks like your phone can't handle it).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cutting-TM:

Got 7%...

Any idea to solve this problem? I thought it was imagination that the consumption is rising with the new kernel...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lucas4ever:
Same here. Got dots everywhere when playing games.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] THE_KINGDOM:
I guess all these people don't listen to music lol... too many glitches on this kernel now, it never used to be like this before
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hasnol143:
It also reduces battery usage while screen is on! I try it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ohrensessel:
For me its around 7 to 10% continuously. No matter if maximum sound is set to 0,1,2 or 3. (I'm on 61)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maisi:
Great! We need to get attention from franco so he can fix it ^^

No idea, I did a clean re-install and it didn't help, as soon as i install 18.4 i get 0%.

Stock kernel works as well.

Well maybe we can find the mistake in the source, i really think it could be caused by the sound patch since it was a big change from 18.5 i think.

My phone runs much cooler on 18.4 , I think this bug drains a lot of power.

Definitely a kernel issue then, 3 phones are too many.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
Since r61 volume control is working flawless here.. And the best, it doesn't need to reboot to change volume or high quality. Using playerpro for music and mx player for videos.

I don't have any artifacts, neither on launcher or playing games. So r61 is a great release to me.

Tapatalked from my Nexus Prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] broderbluff:
Have used r61 since it was released and the phone froze once just after I flashed the kernel with weird artifacts when I was trying colorcontrol but after rebooting it have been solid, music playing as it should with 3 on volume settings
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bradm23:
R61 is flawless for me. I had previous audio issues and they are all resolved in 61. By far the fastest and smoothest kernel I have used with my gnex. I would package this up and call it m2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dwang:
Pretty happy with r61 myself.

But it seems like some people can't run at 512mhz GPU.

I think with ezekeel's kernel, the GPU OC can be configured via his app. Maybe this could be an option with Franco's app as well?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitrox1:
I have no complaints about r61. I admit I have not played any music from my phone. Art the moment only UV like crazy ;) lucky with the gpu I guess.

I do know that the full voltage control app allows for scheduler choice, and gpu clocking control, but I don't own it to try, so don't know if it's compatible.

Swyped from my tuna surprise with extra back bacon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shetlander:
If possible I think it would be a good idea if Franco could code it into his app so we had the choice of what GPU speed we run at.

Personally Im waiting also for the 1500Mhz CPU overclock. With 18.4 (Which has been the best kernel so far even beating 13.1) I could run great and the phone ran smooth, fast and cool.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
My phone is smoother at 1.350mhz now than 1.650 on 18.4. IMO numbers doesn't mean much.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GchildT:
Great article. Very easy to understand for any noob.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MisterEdF:
Sorry to be a killjoy. My complaint is not with your kernel (it's top notch) but with your app.

It was so easy before to download & install a nightly (just one button press) but now you have to go to your app, press a button. go to an external FTP, download a file, go into recovery, load etc etc.

How come you replaced 1-step simplicity with 6 or 7 steps? The app made is so easy ... now it's lots of work. Kind of defeated the purpose of the app.

Maybe I am missing something? If so my humble apologies however I have looked for the "1 button solution" and it seems to be gone (except for the "stable version.)" :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Don't worry that will be dealt today with a simple "Auto-flash latest nightly". I've been relaxing whole day, I kinda need it sometimes... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
No, you're not missing anything but the point is... Before yesterday we not even had the option to download nightlies and now we have.

Yesterday we got issues with Ezekeel sound hack and Francisco fixed already. I think Francisco will eventually implement a 1-click for nightlies but let's give him some time.

Step by step.

I'm using at level 3 (max) and most of the time with high quality checked and max volume. I have some mp3 and videos with low volume and since the volume gets louder when the high quality box is unchecked I turn it off eventually.

Interesting. 1.65Ghz wasnt available on 18.4 due to stability issues with running that high.

For me the extra 150mhz brought more than just numbers. It helped with smoother graphics with the GPU running at 308Mhz. Everything was smooooth.
