[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alanid:
I have a noob question about using this kernel. I've been thinking about flashing a different kernel because I'm not happy with the battery performance of the stock one.

I was wondering, if I flash this through recovery, am I able to change some of the kernel settings (governor, max/min cpu) through the "Performance" menu in AOKP ROM Control? Or can those settings only be modified through the frano.kernel app? I'm just wondering about how the kernel settings interact with those from AOKP (power saver, etc..). Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:
You can use the aokp built in controls or any CPU control app
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alanid:
Thanks! I'll give this a try tonight after I flash B28.

Anyone facing SystemUI crash sometimes when unlocking screen on Milestone 2? I don't know if it's a kernel problem, just saying here. Next time i will grab the logs. Otherwise nice kernel, better battery life than m1.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hasnol143:
Can anyone tell me what are the signs of harsh undervolting? I wan't to know if a crash or reboot is caused by undervolting or the kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:
If its crashing or rebooting its probably the under volt.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
When the device restarts or something its easy to see if it was kernel or rom: in the dmesg log if in the bottom is says "Linux kernel restarted" or something similar, then it's probably some **** in the kernel.

Can't get GPS to work with Franco Kernel! :(

I'm using nexus GSM, MoDaCo 4.0.4 ROM, XXKK6 Radio, Franco nightly #98!

Please help, because I like the performance of this kernel :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stagejuan:
still on R66 with much improved battery over stock.. Would switching over to a ROM over stock improve battery life even more?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] willl03:
I used to run this exact setup and GPS worked fine here in N America. I think that the default satellites used by Modaco are the north american ones, at least they were on my device.

Try changing your GPS servers to match your area using FasterFix app from the market

Doubt it, but it will perform better and have more features, while keeping similar battery usage. It's all in the kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddieN:
Everything's been great running AOKP M4 and Franco 98, but some day ago I got two random reboots. One was when I unlocked fast, and the other was when I had unlocked fast and opened Chrome fast. Haven't seen a reboot since, and I don't know how to check Dmesg (I would if I could and I would post it/check it for you) but i'll try to find how to check the dmesg and let you know when it happens again. Do you check the logs right after the reboot?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atsavlis:
For those having problems with your GPS, this is what I do with every rom I flash. I live in Greece, and most roms are set for US. Open build.prop and find the line that says ro.product.locale.region=US. For me I change the US to EU (Europe) or GR (Greece).

I have never had an issue with GPS and lock within secons. Hopefully this sorts some of the problems out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] asb123:
Is fast charge supported in r98?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kashix:
Menu transition from home page doesn't seems so fluid anymore on B28 AOKP

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Serious_Beans:
Upgrade to M2 and use Bugless Beast for best battery life IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikulogical:
With m2, my wifi keeps disconnecting when phone is in sleep. Never happened before with any other kernel versions. Aokp m4 and latest north American radios.

I dunno what changed but my first ten percent isn't dropping quickly anymore and last night after a full days use it was still at 40%. Slept like a log and woke up to 39%... This can't be right. I'll post screens when I drain the rest of this charge. Could be a record... lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikulogical:
Yes sir it is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darrendm:
Sound Control does not seem to be working for me. Anyone else have this issue?

I think it was from a recent app update. It worked prior to this and the change in sound was clearly noticeable, now its just identical with no change.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dp92180:
Franco said he would look when he had time, go back to 98 for now
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DROID_INC:
Try wiping battery stats in clockwork recovery. This helped me because when you flash kernels a lot of times then your battery percentage gets screwed up due to the change in voltages and so forth.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Roman-Kumori:
Good job, Franco. Milestone 2 offers approximately 40% better battery life than Milestone 1. :)

Thank you so much Franco -- my Galaxy Nexus is like 20 times better than stock!

Battery life is amazing with Milestone 2 and AOKP Milestone 4. I have 3 Gmail accounts constantly syncing; Facebook, Weather apps updating all the time, and I'm loosing roughly 1%/hour!!!!!!!

One thing though, I'm gonna echo other people and make a itsy bitsy complaint about the Sound Control. Not only does it not do anything to the volume, the sound quality is worse to my ears. I really miss the old one (where you can turn up to 20) - music was LOUD and sounded AMAZING! Was there any issue that forces you to take it out?

Anyhow, if you don't want to bring it back, please give us a patch or something so we can flash the old sound control if we want to.... Please!?

---------- Post added at 06:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 PM ----------

Does switching back to r98 help with the volume?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EnIXmA:
Hi guys. I just flashed milestone 2 and am loving the speed and battery life on it. Just have few questions:-

-How do I enable fast charge?

- My deep sleep is at 35% while i m charging the phone plus it is getting over heated while charging.

Any of you guys getting these issues and how to fix them.

thnx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Frakatchoo:
Me too (Milestone2), don't hear any volume change.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
Buy Franco kernel app from market, it has all the settings.

What do you mean it is at 35% deep sleep while it charges? If you charge for 100 mins it only deep sleeps for 35? Or are you just quoting cpuspy readings without understanding??

The phone will generate heat while charging and in use.

when trying to transfer files from windows pc to phone i keep getting errors about phone been disconnected or i get incomplete transfers ?? stock kernel works fine ?? milestone 2 aokp 28 , anyone else tried search but xda search dont like me

I have one question when I play Samurai VS Zombie in Galaxy Nexus I feel it little lag but when I play this game in Sensation XE it very smooth so it mean GPU of galaxy nexus is poor? T_T I use Aokp M4 + Rev98 and franco M2 lag both anybody have same my problem? how should I do for play game smooth?

I love every all of galaxy nexus but it have only one of I worry about GPU
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] willl03:
Using M2 or r98, Blutooth wont connect if I put my phone in airplane mode before.

If I use airplane mode, I have to reboot the phone to get BT to work again.

I think it wasnt like that on M1.

Also, GTA 3 wont open under M2, was fine under M1!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mohitrocks:
Yeah, the GPU on the Nexus isn't great. You could download a kernel with GPU over clocking functionality such as Ezekeel's Glados kernel (I think you have to buy his app to get GPU over clocking functionality) Or you could also try an experimental version of the Trinity kernel (Tuna on the website) but the last time I tried the experimental ( i think it was the 1500mhz cpu and 550mhz gpu) the screen popped and it rebooted :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Antob125:
I'm noticing better battery life when hotplug is off and me going on my phone a lot and hotplug on when I'm not on my phone as much.

Question, turning hotplug on or off do we need to restart?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Serious_Beans:
I have the same problem on Zenonia 4, but I don't see how the GPU can't handle a 2d game like that smoothly -_-, I think it's poor software rather than hardware.

EDIT: It might be hardware, seems to start lagging only after the phone gets hot, maybe it underclocks the gpu a lot when it gets hot?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChongoDroid:
Buddy, I can't upload screenies cuz I'm at work but I think I have the record for battery life. 1d 4 hours up time.. 4 hours screen on time. With twitter, Facebook, Google plus, gmail all synced. Just modaco and Franco 98 with a few build prop tweaks, no UV.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Serious_Beans:
What build.prop tweaks you using for battery saving?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
#3.8

* Add Imoseyon kernel download support by Imoseyon's proposal - this doesn't affect the app in any way and since we both share some mods like ColorControl and SoundControl it sounded like a good idea. There are some options like "Hotplug mod" that won't work with Imoseyon's kernel, but I'll leave those explanations for Imoseyon himself

* Fixed SoundControl options not being applied on Milestone 2 release

* Fixed boot animation removal after unchecking that option

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] siedkins:
Just got stuck and had my first battery pull since getting the phone. I have just flashed Paul's r3 ROM (my registration is still coming through), rebooted to test then went back into recovery to then flashed your 2nd Dec Kernel, rebooted into the phone got stuck at Power screen.

I am restoring my nandroided boot.img from Paul's ROM for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Maybe Paul's boot.img is different than this one, I'm using stock images.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mike1986.:
It would be perfect to make working anykernel package working, because boot.img files (mostly init binary) from 41D base might not be compatible with 41F.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Yes, it would be a bliss...I don't know why it doesn't work with what we tried, it should just go to the path of the boot.img like it's specified, extract the boot.img, unpack it, insert zImage, pack it again and paste it in it's path... ****ing omap.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nick.:
Hate to ask such a noob question but just to clarify. :o

Just flashed your kernal through clockwork recovery, after the phone has rebooted can I just delete this

Through root explorer or an equivalent app
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mskip:
As long as your phone has been rooted then yes you can delete or rename the file (adding a .bak on the end) with root explorer just remember to mount the system folder so that you can alter it.

Mark.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nick.:
Nice one cheers for the help Mark.

Good work with the kernal franco...runs perfectly not a single problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Just a quicky saying been running this since late morning / early after noon and no problems here either. Phone is running like a beast with this and mikes rom :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] b15love:
isnt the GPU already clocked to 384mhz?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Thanks everyone for the good feedback.

No ****ing Goolge underclocked CPU/GPU by 20%.

If you guys like this kernel and if you want me to keep working on it (I've been working without a device) please consider going here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/10647-kernel2-dec-francokernel/ and drop a nice comment about this work to increase my chances of winning a GN tomorrow. It's the only thing I ask. Thank you.

Will you be making this available for lte devices?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ferris2375:
GPU OC is cool, but are we far from getting a kernel that allows overclocking of the CPU?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Yes obviously, but I need the device to test everything as much as possible, I can't rely on mskip forever availability forever

Yes, in one/two hours, mskip fell asleep and didn't test my latest kernel so I'll rely that to the users, just a few more touches and GSM/LTE version coming out.

Much appreciated!!

Dunno. Overclocking hasn't been a priority for me yet, and, like I told before it's very hard to work without a device. I'm gonna look at it and I know SetCPU creator is working on it. Overclocking OMAP devices is hard. Just some patience :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Update is up, I need testing please, specially on the heat. LTE boot.img comes in 10 minutes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coolbho3000:
I'm working on an overclock higher than 1.4GHz, but as a note, GPU has gone to 512MHz for me. I'm not sure how stable it is.

Patch if anyone wants it, it's pretty simple: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36553/1_4GHz_oc

The problem now is that reaching 1.5GHz+ requires something called DCC (Duty Cycle Correction) to be enabled, but the phone seems to crash when setting frequencies with DCC enabled. The OMAP4460 technical reference manual contains more info on this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stickjohnonaah:
Nice, when lte comes out I'll give if a whirl, already recovered from getting stuck once so if it happens again I'll know my way out

Hey guys, haven't flipped through every page so I apologize if this has already been asked.

Now on to my problem. Every once in a while, seemingly randomly while my screen is locked my phone freezes. Whenever I go to wake it the screen lights up but the touch screen does not respond. I guess the touch screen could be dying but I really hope not haha. No matter how many times I relock it and unlock it again. Nothing remedies the issue until I pull the battery and restart.

I'm running AOKP M4, franco.Kernel nightly v98 I also have widget locker if it makes any difference.

Thanks

u dont need to spam in 2 threads =="

one in aokp, one in franco

but anyway. remove widget locker and u will see why.. bad app
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bballs91:
haha sorry man just wasn't sure which was at fault but also i was thinking because this usually tends to happen during screen off it might have to do with hotplug mod? Where it disables one core during screen off, could these be causing any instabilities?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] king23adrianc:
not at all.. i was playing with hotplug way back and it wont affect it

just uninstall widgetlocker
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bballs91:
i'm gonna miss it :( lol. Uninstalled though i figured widgetlocker could be at fault

Wifi scan and I think media scan. I'll check it again cuz I did it when I first flashed modaco

good job franco....was drifting to sleep and then ur update showed up！ now too excited to sleep, lol...

EDIT: dont mind if i make one small suggestion？ can u add some of your older nightly versions in there？

just my two cents, but downloading the r98 zip and flashin manually gets me artifacts 9/10 time i try it or reboot it. but this time, when using ur app to flash r98, it came out fine, even rebooted 3 times to check.

so i was thinking if u could add like r97 and some of the older but good nightlies or even all of them into ur app so us users can just choose watever we want.

IM HAPPY RIGHT NOW THOUGH, LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Serious_Beans:
You can download his older nightlies here -> http://minooch.com/franciscofranco/Galaxy Nexus/nightlies/

i know that, but as i said in my post, it seems as if flashing through his app gives me the stability to rum oc gpu kernels whereas if i manual flash, always artifacts, thanks for helping though

Graphical glitches shouldn't result from manual flashing. That is strange that it works for you sometimes and sometimes not.

Hi,

Firstly loving the battery life! but I enabled the bootanimation and now can't change it back using either 'Boot Animation Changer' or 'Boot Animations'. I've unticked the box in the kernel updater programme and tried deleting the zip file on system/media (which refuses to delete or rename).

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Langduscher:
When I thought r98 was the best, I did a clean install for AOKP M4 + franco.Kernel M2 and I have to say battery life is ridiculously good now, without sacrificing "snappiness".

In a poor 3G reception area I managed to pull 2hrs screen on time (browsing) and still had 60% left :eek: (brightness @ ~40%, just plain stock M2 kernel settings)

It's just so good now I'm hesitant to flash another rom/ kernel/ combo to try and get the best Nexus experience (although I want/ need to) :D hehehe
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SrTapir:
Superb recommendation, thanks for sharing!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schizophrenia:
is that M2 provides you a less smooth Gaming experience than the r98? I know M2 has a lower GPU frequency than r98.. let's take GTA3 as an example

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] a random person:
Franco's kernel is so good that not only did I not lose battery during standby, but I actually GAINED extra battery ;)

On a more serious note, I assume this 'charging' thing will go away eventually, since the battery is still new. Or maybe I should wipe battery stats since I've been flashing around a bit?

By the way, awesome bit of work franco, until our phone can charge themselves this kernel gives me awesome battery life :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I think the answer is so obvious that I dont need to answer.
