Lol I don't get what the big fuss is. What would honestly be the point of lying. To flex my nerd emuscles? Next time I'll get screen shots to "prove" myself to you guys. Jeez.

I don't know what to tell you at this point. I do know I used my phone heavily. It was in a 11 hr period of mostly text , browsing, and google huddle. Was on wifi at my in laws.

Right now I'm at 1 full day of up time and 2 hrs 5 min screen time with 51% left. A lot more idle time but that would make sense considering I used my phone a lot in a short amount of time a few days ago when I got 5 hrs 45 min.

Have a nice weekend everyone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Andrmgic:
Great kernel so far!

Quadrant went up over 500 points :)

the I/O improvements and bringing the gpu up to its proper clock speed probably had something to do with that "little" bump.

I do miss the USB OTG support I had on modaco r3+ kernel, though.

Any plans to add in USB host support? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlackDino:
Any chance on making this a flashable?

Edit. Reading > me

Thanks!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Yes absolutely. It wasn't one of my priorities, but now it's something to look forward to.

It's flashable.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stickjohnonaah:
Signatures don't show on tapatalk unless I go to your profile which I didn't so I would have no idea. I'll be trying the kernel soon
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tubes6al4v:
Here are some benchmark results:

What the results don't show:

SD card read/write went from 9/21 to 6/32. Crazy better reading, but at the expense of write speed.

FPS is MUCH more stable around 58fps with Franco than others.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Thanks so much for the graph. I don't believe much in benchmarks but they are definitely the easiest tools to compare kernels and big changes!

As for the cost of writting, don't worry, thats meaningless, what we want is reading speed, much more important.

Glad you like it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kfjunky:
Apologies for that and good luck!

Couple of hours on Franco's kernel, and everything is working perfectly so far.

No FCs, no weird behaviour, and great user experience.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathanhuerta4:
Ok, I have search this thread and did not find anything on the volume bug. So is the volume bug present when using this kernel? Thank you in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inffy:
The source for the newest kernel hasn't been releseased yet, so I think that this hasn't been included (yet) to this kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SS2006:
do live wallpapers still lag on this kernel

cant wait to see a 1.4 ghz oc:D (that is what this processor was supposed to run at right)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sim_jim:
Yes still :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
As mentioned already the kernel source hasnt been released yet so the volume fix is not included in this version.

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] minooch:
actually the SoC is rated for 1.5Ghz :D

That means it *might* be possible to go higher :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tung_meister:
I can't see any reason why we won't be able to get higher speeds than 1.5Ghz, considering that's the native speed enabling that speed won't even be overclocking. Based on previous chips overclocking potential I'd say at some point we'll easily be seeing 1.7Ghz+
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
OMAPs are a little different to overclock, I gotta find a way to do it, but I'm definitely gonna try.

This does not work on LTE devices. after kernel instal and reboot it gets stuck on the google screen. I just fixed my phone from the kernel install. I was unable to flash any of my nandroid backups because the MD5 sums no longer matched. Only fix was to install Mikes Rom he made for the LTE device. Now I just have to re set up everything. Can you make this work on LTE devices and if so what files do you need from my phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
just arrived, coming from sgs :D

will definately start playing with my new toy, and there's already stuff to try out :D first thing, clone AOSP and unlock bl, then on to try out some kernels, recoveries, roms, w00t!!!

will try your kernel soon, franco, thanks mate, hope you manage to get a prime ;)

edit: oh cool, post #666.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I'm not sure, probably I need two different boot.img, one for GSM other for LTE. Will try that later because I already made USB Host and CIFS avaliable, so the update comes regardless.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Today I'm trying the no OC test kernal 13.12.2011.

Dropped 50mV off each CPU speed and been running onky a short time. My phone feels like it has the power of a steam train! I was using stock kernal for a while before flashing this one for another test for something else. Stock kernal is not laggy one bit and this is very much the same. The speed between UI menus and loading time is really very very fast. My phone definately prefers no OC version for this time
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
Thanks for the hard work franco!

anyways im new to android. Got the kernel installed. phone feels much more snappy.

Was just curious what app do you guys use to undervolt?

edit: NM! looks like setcpu will work

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StuMcBill:
I have just received my Galaxy Nexus and so far its great, thinking about installing this kernel, however I have a question regarding it?

Does this kernel suffer from the Keep Awake Android OS problem?

I am currently running everything stock and getting pretty shocking battery life due to this issue!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GchildT:
It was said before that this issue was related Clockwork Recovery.

---------- Post added at 09:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 AM ----------

No it does not. Just make sure you have your WiFi set to turn off when the screen turns off. Wifi will keep your device from going into deep sleep.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kimboinatl:
Yeah it's odd. None of my settings stick (Franco is aware of this, just letting you know that I have the same issue). I would just use the ROM control or SetCPU for now (but honestly, 700-1200 conservative works great).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
Like you said Francisco is aware of this issue and while he doesn't release a fix I'm using rom control from AOKP.

Btw, kernel version beta 19 is working absolutely better that previous versions to me. Seems that Francisco oc'ed the gpu for 512 and it's sooooo smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tubes6al4v:
Edit: Nvm, XDA app dies not display code boxes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CaspaTheGhost:
Agreed....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
For those on 18.6

ive had 0 issues except for one w/ streaming music when plugging into aux or headphones.

Music will play for a few seconds / stop / and sometimes come out of the speaker.

Anyone have similar issues? I had volume + installed before changing to francos at setting 15. Just curious if anyone else has had any issues.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Antob125:
All those asking for 19, a few days ago Franco said he was releasing 19 as a beta and only releasing the img to be fastboot flashed so that only knowledgeable people can flash and test it. So basically if you don't know how then you can't flash it and this not give feed back. If you want 19 look up franco on G+ and he posted it a few days ago. Also the reason franco isn't responding is cause he said he's busy this weekend. Up a few posts

I think that was mostly to do a blind test for the gpu oc but still, you're absolutely right. Ppl should get familiar with fastboot regardless if they're playing with kernels.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
we'd be right here when you do that lol :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
If you properly setup adb/fastboot so you just need to write on a console the following:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

You need to keep your phone on bootloader screen while you enter fastboot commands.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leelaa:
Thank you I must of missed that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leelaa:
I am sorry but did I ask for a link to a cwm zip or did I ask how to flash .img? Why the hate? And also you say I need to get used to flashing these types of files. Well this is my first time so isn't that classed as getting used to? I am sory if I thought this was a "helpful community" guess I was wrong, apart from OP who was kind enough to "help" me out
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] drawde40599:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hasnol143:
I was wondering, why can't we increase the volume in Franco's app on 18.6 anymore? I really liked the increase in volume.. now I might have to go back down to 18.5 :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opensourcefan:
With all due respect, in one post you asked for 19, two posts after it was explained why it's a img file, then two more posts later you ask how to install it cause it's an img file!! You're good at asking but not reading. You need to take some effort and learn what you're doing, most everyone else has. So don't get all freaky when you get put in your place. It's nothing personal so learn from it...please.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] harmohn:
Ah I wouldn't worry about it fella. Most of us seasoned users can be a bit passionate in posts, and at times can read like hate.

There's nothing wrong in learning & using fastboot commands. Most of us learnt them initially when rooting our devices the "hard way", and there are great post out there to do this.

In this instance, the dev just posted it as a teaser, instead of on xda to avoid being flooded with posts on how this or that doesn't work anymore.

This approach is often used by devs to ensure the user has a minimum competency for relevant feedback.

Have fun learning mate :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChongoDroid:
What did I do? I just explained why he released it as a .img

Reading my post again and I see no hate, let's stop hijacking francos thread (even tho he's taking a well deserved break) and get back on topic... which is 18.6

Be calm and carry on :D

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
lol first of all OP is franco not viking37.

You say this is your first time. That's exactly why franco didn't post 19 here and he didn't post it as a flashable zip. He has reasons to believe that if you are not comfortable with fastboot and flashing then you SHOULD NOT try b19. If he wanted everyone to access and discuss 19 he would have posted it here in the first post not on google+. We are trying to help you not stop you from flashing b19. flash all you want my friend.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Maguire11:
Some feedback.. Everybody says you do not need to wipe cache or dalvik when flashing new kernels... So that's what I did when I flashed 18.6 for the first time. Like I said in my last post, in 12 hours(I'm on gsm stock battery btw) I got 3h15 screen on time with 4 hours of music playing while the screen was off. However when my phone was sitting idle with the screen off I was losing 2-4 percent per hour. I then switched to 13.1 and wiped cache / dalvik.

Results were 3 hours on screen, 20h off battery with 20% left.

Lots of people reported amazing battery life on 18.6 though so I thought I'd try it again but with wiping cache and dalvik. Sure enough that fixed my idle issue, I just lost 1 percent over 2 hours.

Moral of the story: I will always wipe cache and dalvik when changing kernels.

I'll report back how 18.6 goes for me this time around.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opensourcefan:
^^ I've never wiped any cache and my battery results are always good. On 18.6 aokp 25
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kashix:
Alright guys, you've had your cwm zip for b19, discussion should be done only at Google+ !

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
yes it's completely safe. the difference is not significant so try it yourself and see what you get. interactive governer spends a lot of time on max frequency so better to use conservative or ondemand with 1.35 enabled.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marc.tulley:
Coincidence mate. I haven't wiped those caches since franco 8

Doing a bit of a standby test atm actually and even with about 30min screen time its averaging about 0.5%/hour

without cache pre-wipes

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vangelis13:
You have to wipe cache & dalvik and delete whatever is in /system/etc/init.d prior to flashing a different "brand" kernel, e.g. from morfic to franco's. If you just update within the same brand you're ok to not wipe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] THE_KINGDOM:
Anybody have problems with sound cutting in and out when connected by auxiliary (headphone)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fjdifede:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] farfetch:
thx a lot...but why 1025mV for 350MHz?? i think you put 700 as min cpu freq right?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Maguire11:
Makes sense, I didn't wipe when I went from lean kernel to francos 18.6. Maybe that caused the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Notn4:
anyone notice problems with downloading from the market?

after applying 18.6 I got error (-101) when trying to download anything from market and when removing my gmail account and adding it back gets me to another error (403)

now I have that stupid 403 error always when connected to 3g and trying to download from market, when wifi is on I can download fine as long as 3g isn't enabled (error 403 occurs even when both wifi and 3g are on but I'm only using wifi)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akira02rex:
I've never believed setting it at 700Mhz is better than 350mhz. So far, no one has showed proof that either is better - it's just theory. Until then, I'm sticking with 350mhz.

Of all the android devices I've owned - and I've owned a lot - I've always had the best battery life by setting the min freq to the lowest allowable by the kernel. My GSII was at a staggering 100mhz minimum. At these low frequencies you also get the benefit of a much lower power draw. It can be argued until the world ends unless we have tangible evidence that one or the other is better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Sorry everything you said is wrong. During idle it doesnt matter if its 10mhz or 10000000mhz so there I just rulled out one of the preconceived ideas.

During usage on screen on you'll see your cpu ramping up to max freq a lot more if you have 350mhz, which doesnt happen with 700mhz (several times tested by me). There another preconceived **** rulled out.

With 700 you'll finish your crap faster which will make your cpu to be halted faster and enters idle a lot faster. We call that race-to-idle. Another point rulled out.

There you go, against facts theres no denial.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChongoDroid:
I was trying to recite this back in the day on the atrix forums and got flamed HARD. I got the usual "uh duh this how a circuit works" and didn't have the knowledge to back up my theory.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] duRin90:
However, if you're listening to the music, you would rather had this on 350MHz not 700MHz. I bet music won't play faster ;)

Or is it just me wrong in the world of "slow" music?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Ahah you can now link that up their asses ;)

Sometimes I get some nerdrage about that matter but I really couldnt care less its not my device that is being misused.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gingernut78:
What I don't get is if at 700mhz you save more battery because of TTI vs lower clock speed why would TI, Samsung & Google set it to 350mhz?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] akira02rex:
Franco, you're entitled to your opinions just as I am. If it's ramping up so much then why does CPU Spy show 350mhz is getting hit much more? My graphs indicate 350mhz is getting hit the most followed by 700, then 1000 (I have my range set to 350 -1000). In fact, 1000 barely gets hit at all for what I'm doing with my device. You may be right about getting threads done quicker, but at idle if I'm reading through Google Reader or any book for the matter the cpu, and I'm guessing, will probably sit at 350mhz thus drawing less current on the battery. If your theories hold true Franco, then why not eliminate the 700mhz step and go straight up to 1000mhz - at this freq. it barely requires much more current from the battery.

Like I said, this can be argued forever - no one has tangible proof. Franco, if you do, please show us.

Also, these settings can't be intended to work for everyone for best results since everyone uses their device differently (different applications, etc).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vangelis13:
