undervolt settings don't seem to be applied at boot. Is that intentional?

By the way, love the 512mhz GPU overclock. Noticeable performance difference, especially in the browser.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Yes, it's intentional for security purposes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mazubo:
Will 512 damage our phone in the long run?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mazubo:
Your app is beautiful sir! Very ICS!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sotoskawasaki:
Franco do you UV the OC'd GPU? How much impact does it have on the battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sishgupta:
Thanks for the latest drops Franco. Loving the app and r58.

Sorry you are annoyed. I typically just let other people ask stuff cuz I know it tends to annoy you and I don't want to be 'that guy' lol :)

Thanks again
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hasnol143:
Running nightly, everything seems nice and smooth here or may be its the reboot :p but thx Franco I really needed the screen on battery performance, my battery dropped to 40% with 50 min of screen on, hope this will make it better! Love the new app too!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] apsis:
Would it be possible to implement an updater service that will update franco kernel updater on request ? Cause I bought your app via androidpit, but the updates are coming slower there, I'm on 3.3.2 right now. Would be great of this could be possible. Other than that, great work. Gonna try nightly 58 today ;)

Great job on the new app layout franco! The layout Integrates perfectly in ics !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] momomok:
Little suggestion:

add a timeout to detect the connection state of the device

so your awesome updater won't go responsive when there is no connection...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aeo087:
Can't wait to see what you can do with the phone!

I donated a couple of days ago, im really happy for you that youre finally getting the phone. Video recording is broken for me on the 12/12 version, but other than that performance is great! Thanks for all the good work Franco!

Btw, any good concrete explanation for some devices becoming very slow with OC (mine :()?

I read something about dcc enabled or disabled but dont quite understand what that means...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MontAlbert:
just had my first graphics glitch on the 13/12 test kernel. I have been running it for close to 36hrs now I think and this was the first one i have had. A quick turn off and on of the screen fixed it. I am undervolted and Overclocked- is there any type of log you want from me?

Front camera works fine though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Nop, thanks for the report thought. At least the glitches are almost non happening. I bet it's the undervolt.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MontAlbert:
do you think its something that can be fixed in the kernel or just means i am undervolting too much?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Next version will have stock voltage and then users can play as they want. Other than that I currently have no idea, only when my GN gets here tomorrow morning.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] onicrom:
franciscofranco first off thanks for all your hard work.

I had a question about the undervoltiing... Have you exposed to ability to play with the undervolting via sysfs? similar to the way netarchy did for his nexus s kernels?

example here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11028061&postcount=2

Can we follow similar instructions to modify the voltages ourselves? and if so, do we need to modify both cores or does one inherit the others voltage setting?

thanks again.

edit...

I tried this myself and it appears to be working, I only need to edit one cpu table the other inherits:

echo "1250 1200 1050 1000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_mV_table

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_mV_table

1200mhz: 1250 mV

920mhz: 1200 mV

700mhz: 1050 mV

350mhz: 1000 mV

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/UV_mV_table

1200mhz: 1250 mV

920mhz: 1200 mV

700mhz: 1050 mV

350mhz: 1000 mV

now to whip up an init script which reads a config file and im off to the races!

thanks!

---------- Post added at 10:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:14 PM ----------

so far...

1250mV at 1200mHZ is stable

1240mV at 1200mHZ is stable

1230mV at 1200mHZ seems stable but all data stopped working during one test, normal during another.

1225mV at 1200mHZ crashed my phone

by stable i mean

i run a few single/multi threaded linpacks, a few quadrants, and play a few rounds of angry birds and the phone behaves normally.

---------- Post added at 11:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 PM ----------

apologies for the bombardment of posts but this is what I've got working and stable:

$ adb remount

$ adb shell

# printf "#!/system/bin/sh\necho '1240 1190 1040 990' > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_mV_table" > /system/etc/init.d/97uv

# chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/97uv

# adb reboot

.... wait for reboot

$ adb shell

# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_mV_table

1200mhz: 1240 mV

920mhz: 1190 mV

700mhz: 1040 mV

350mhz: 990 mV

Thank you for the detailed post, I'm sure a lot of users will find it very important!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
I feel 13122011-test is faster, switched to interactive governor yesterday, keeping it in this version too. Same uv.

A couple of questions i've been meaning to ask. Francisco, will you keep supporting aosp, and would you consider a cm9 kernel when the time comes? :) it's a great rom eheh.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Craziness; switching back to AR HD 1.3.2's stock kernel doubled my battery life.

Hope this can be fixed in a future update because your kernel is the shiznit. My Quadrant score went down to 2000 from 2400 (average) after switching, but tis okay, I don't push my Nexus to its max on a daily basis anyway :]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PhaedraCorruption:
How are you guys getting 2800+ in quadrant? I'm on the 12/13 @ 1.2Ghz and I can barely hit 1600.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Dafuq O.o a stock Nexus hits 1900 lmao.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PhaedraCorruption:
Just rebooted and I can do 2000 now, still not getting anywhere close to the 3100 that some people have managed to get. :o
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Those people's phones have battery lives shorter than Kim Kardashian's marriage and are unstable as f***, just like ...well you get the picture.

If you actually need 3100 performance power on your phone, go buy a PSP. Otherwise, there's no reason to get up that high; and those people doing 3100 developed crazy roms that they 100% will not be using on a daily basis.

Moral of this story:

Benchmarks aren't a competition.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sethyx:
Test kernel from dec. 13, MCR pre-ir6, XXKK6 radio.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] apd:
I get about 2500 on ARHD 1.3.2 using Franco's 13/12 kernel and SetCPU allowing a maximum of 1400ghz. CPUspy shows that the entire benchmark ran at 1400.

It also used up 2% to 3% of battery. I wouldn't like to operate at that speed all the time.....!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DJTaurus:
F#cking vbus_tuna_otg

During the night in sleep mode my battery droped from 85% to 56%

I am with the test kernel without OC
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ys222:
My Input

The Kernel is indeed fast as the DB IO has 40% more speed compare to other Kernel

as for now I will look for it's stability as well as power consumsion - update later this week

one question is related to the fact that I have same score for 2D and 3D preformance for all Kernels I have used until now (include official one) - I have used your OC version - any advice ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GMH24:
I am on the dec12 version since tuesday but the battery life is considerably shorter than I expected.

Is there a cwm version of the stock kernel so that I can compare?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StuMcBill:
You should be able to extract the Stock kernel (boot.img) from here: http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html

However, you will need to flash it with fastboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nmesisca:
same thing for me..

I thought the USB OTG driver was gone from the last kernel??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] splus:
Sorry if it's a silly question, but when I go to Market to update Franco kernel app I get the message that the app is not supported on my phone so I can't update it.

Running AOKP b27 and Franco kernel M1. I was playing with LCD density but I reverted back to stock 320 DPI and cleared Market cache, and still get the same message.

Anyone knows what could be the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
Volume hack toggle would be awesome.

would it be possbile to also add a toggle for the colour hacks? My display is perfect with stock kernel but no matter how much I play around with the values I can't make it like stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eiabea:
i am running milestone 1 and got a strange volume behaviour:

after a reboot the volume is really loud (seems like volume hack works), but after a notification it drops to stock volume or even beyond :-(

any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cutting-TM:
Need help to verify:

After I've unplugged my phone with display on and turning the display off I have a consumption of -2mA. This is constant until I use my phone for the first time. After that, the consumption still is above 20-90 mA.

Nothing has changed since then but it consumes much more energy...

Any ideas? Tried everything, new rom, delete many apps...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fihlvein:
When 'fast USB charge' is enabled, MTP through USB does not work.

Sorry if that's already mentioned (probably), checked throught a few recent pages.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitrox1:
Same here, would like to buy you a glass of sangria, or a pot of espresso, can you let me know how.

I've always tried to give a little to what a use a lot, even if I don't continue to use it (doubt that's going to happen)

And you always go out of your way to appease us crack flashers.

Edit: on a side note I want "market" back instead of some silly "play" something. Stupid rebranding.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
When you're going to transfer files you just need to untick the fast USB charge and reconnect on USB. Isn't really a big deal.

If you constantly need your data available on pc when you connect you phone would be better not to use this feature for now.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xTee:
guys, i have a problem. when ițm using hotplug mod enabled (1350 max, 350 min, ondemand) in 8 hours of standby it takes like 10-12% from battery, but when i disable hotplug, it takes 2-3% in 8 hours. WTF?! Hotplug isnt good for battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
Had the same problem and asked ealier in this thread. Francisco advised to set max volume on 10 and that did the trick.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mistermojorizin:
could you please clarify:

i understand that echo 1 gives stronger screen-off wifi than echo 0. But i don't understand: does echo 0 give the same screen off wifi strength as a stock kernel? if not, is it weaker or stronger than stock?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] asianboy9:
Correct me if I'm wrong but I have a feeling this isn't a bug - I believe these will be mutually exclusive.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kotschi:
Hi,

I've installed r58 because I was curious - for the first minutes everything was okay but then in the market I got some "strange white pixels" while scrolling. It made me kind of nervous and then I started maps - after some zooming the screen got completely garbled and the phone rebooted by itself.

After the restart I was playing around in the menus and while scrolling I got these strange white pixels again. After Flashing back to Milestone-1 everything is okay, played 15min dead space, played around in maps etc and no display errors.

From now on I will stay away frrom nightlies ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
That's because of the 512mhz gpu overclock, I said not everyone would make it work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mnemoch:
SOD

Had SOD while charging two nights in a row on AOKP b27 with M1 (stock settings). Reflashed the rom on top to go back to stock kernel and no problems last night. Just in case happening to others...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChongoDroid:
I love having a phone that is capable of a gpu overclock
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChongoDroid:
Also franco just to clarify, the wifi management thing doesn't need a reboot to take effect does it? I really really enjoy this feature a lot... my solution up until now was download a picture of pure black and on long downloads I'd keep the screen on ten minutes at a time looking at that picture..

this is way better lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
Francisco, since not every GNex is the same... is this hardware related or would be caused by some incompatibility with specific apps?

Just asking cause I didn't had any single issue related to graphics. And was using 512mhz on beta 19 too.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Nah works on the fly :)

It's hardware related, not every device is created equal!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] landale:
I remember a while back you saying that OC the GPU doesn't add much but severly hurts battery life. Has something changed with this that we are seeing the 512mhz GPU overclock now?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
No, but I wanted to try 512mhz, I had never tried it before and was curious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
And I hope you keep it, my battery usage seems the same to me. :-D

Tapatalked from my Nexus Prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] loudaccord:
GPU OC doesn't do much for me... phone isn't any faster, only difference is if I do a NenaMark2 bench, sure it's faster but that's about it. I'd prefer the stock GPU and have a higher CPU OC.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dpaine88:
I hate to be a little off-topic but this post is in regards to the Franco Kernel app since I no longer use this kernel but do still use the app.

Where are the ColorControl values set? I set them in the app but I do not see a script in my init.d folder.

Are the values applied a different way now?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
Maybe a future releases of franco.kernel updater could include stock gpu and 512mhz kernels. But this way we'd probably need a separate thread for users feedback.

Tapatalked from my Nexus Prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] landale:
Personally battery life is far more important to me then GPU overclocking but then again I don't know how much it really impacts battery life. I switch between this kernel and leankernel which is overclocked to 384mhz and I find its battery life similar to this kernel at stock gpu although it isn't always as smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sotoskawasaki:
While I haven't used nightly 19, all the comments on G+ were saying how much faster and smoother the kernel was. And it was OC @ 384MHz if I am not mistaken, and according to you it didn't drain more battery. If that's the case and 384MHz is stable enough, would you consider to make it mainstream for everyone to enjoy? 512 is not making everyone happy...

And one more question I made in a previous post, do you undervolt the current 512 GPU? How much battery does it use? If you have any data on that subject of course!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
AFAIK beta 19 was a blind test with a 512mhz GPU Oc'ed kernel, not 384.

Tapatalked from my Nexus Prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sotoskawasaki:
Yes you are right! I just checked with Franco's G+ page.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
The values are stored in the app SharedPreferences.

It was overclocked to 512mhz in nightly 19. At this time I'm not really worried if X or Y individual is happy, or not, with 512mhz. This is for testing and I've made it clear. Nightlies tend to change a lot so we'll see what happens in the future.

In the mean time r60 is available with two big changes:

* Changed default RCU to Tree Preempt RCU. According to nikademus RCU_FAST_NOHZ and Preempt can cause some instability when used together, that's why we had the dependencies set by default. Let's see what happens with this

* Removed previous Volume hack and added SoundControl from Ezekeel.

Volume boost: echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/soundcontrol/volume_boost (values range from 0 to 3, no more, no less);

High_performance: echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/soundcontrol/highperf_enabled

App pushed to 3.4.1 to reflect the SoundControl addition. Have fun
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitrox1:
Would the mentioned problem, show as memory problems? Wallpapers changing, needing to re load emails?

No problems on, r19, m1, or 18.6.

Edit: trust me to have carrier mobile data network problem, the day I flash nights (orange and tmo UK)

Always gotta have a nandroid.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kin24173493:
thank you for your great work. may i know which volume boost is recommended? and can it be possibly by adding auto flash nighties kernel in kernel setting?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arzbhatia:
How do I make my screen colours like they are without the kernel, I mean - as stock. Cuz when I flash franco kernel, my whole screen becomes SO blue-ish!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I already answered that question. Gamma: 0 0 0;
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tubes6al4v:
Great work franco. I am glad to see nightly versions branch off from stable. Can you provide a changelog for those as well? Either at the beginning of this thread, in the app, in the wiki or asking side the download link?

I'll update the wiki to reflect the changes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I'm pushing everything to the exp branch on my git, thats easy to see. I really don't want to spend a lot of my time writing changelogs, and like I did with the last two nightlies I cover the major changes, that should be enough :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arzbhatia:
Thaaaank you Franco! ^-^
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zenzip:
Franco in M1 version, if I set min freq. to 350Mhz instead 700Mhz, how much battery can save?

350 is good for battery then 700 because requires less mv, but I think that the continuos change of freq. from 350 can drain battery fast... what do you think about this? and is this independent form kind of governor?

thanks

---------- Post added at 06:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 PM ----------

I suggest to add in your app like recommended value :D:D stock color: multipliers 200,200,200 - gamma 0,0,0.

It's still blue-ish :(

Okay wait, maybe my script isn't working properly.

Francisco,

Just to give you some feedback: I don't know if it's only me but since r60 my keyboard typing is extremely laggy. I start to type one word and while I'm type the phone becomes quiet, and some seconds later everything typed comes.

Using swiftkey, no problem like this before r60. 700-1350 ondemand. AOKP m4.

I'm flashing r58 just to see if it change.

---------- Post added at 09:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 PM ----------

Weird, reverted to r58 and everything about typing seems normal. Rebooted and flashed r60 again and... normal. I've had already rebooted... and now I can't reproduce it either.

Maybe some background process... sorry for that. I'll be more careful before report again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hasnol143:
Franco why must you hurt me like this? I decided to stick with r58 since I like the old volume control but I decided to update the app and now the volume controls for the old version is gone :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joelteixeira:
I didn't had any volume issue, but we got a lot of users complaining about volume issues so I think Francisco want to give a more stable solution for the users. Just give it a try, maybe it will work as good as the old method for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrfuzzie23:
been running r60, no typing lag for me, actually i dont see any lag anywhere so far...so far running great!

idling has been very good to power draw..

havent tried the wifi power management thing as i dont usually stream with screen off when im on wifi, usually only in the car when im not on wifi
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I actually forgot r58 was using the old Volume hack, but I recommend you to flash r60, Ezekeels SoundControl's a should be a little more stable than the previous implementation from Greg.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aleve1983:
in r60 i have lag in soundwhen i open for example franco app
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alphaola:
Hey Franco just a question about the color control do you recommend a particular level of brightness.I use auto brightness but it doesn't seem to be taken advantage of the color control setting
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I always use 100% brightness no matter what circumstances.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] arzbhatia:
Does playing with the voltage values increase battery life? :-\

If yes, can any one help me do that? I'm new to playing with voltage stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dumb donkey:
I'm also having sound lag (the click sound) when entering any app. had it with r60, wasn't sure if it was that or the AOKP build i had just flashed so wiped everything and fresh install of AOKP and it had gone. Flashed r60 and a minute later i had the same problem, i'm reverting back to r58 to see if that solves the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aleve1983:
58 solves issue
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Whats the big deal of that? Just remove the sound click from settings, done.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aleve1983:
i like click sound :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dumb donkey:
I like the click :) it also feels as though its slowing the phone... could just be due to the sound being delayed though.

as someone else just said, 58 resloves issue
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
It doesnt slow anything, its placebo. I'm pretty sure the SoundControl from Ezekeel is the culprit, I already informed him :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hasnol143:
Alright i'll give it a shot and put it on lvl 3 (hope that's loud enough). i'll get back to you with the results.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alphaola:
Does that not impact on your battery.are you using stock battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atsavlis:
Results from r58.... Im posting these mainly for Franco to get some numbers on the 350-1350 conservative. I also have hotplug enabled. Phone is used for some browsing, facebook, messages, emails, calls ohhh and LOTS of XDA :p Screen on-time is about 3 hours...
