I notice that this is still an issue with build 15. Along with that, Ram usage overall, increases by about 30% (give or take). Any kernel before 14.3 reports correctly and the ram usage is lower. When i use 14.3+ I get launcher (adw ex) homescreen redraws after exiting memory intensive apps. Doesn't happen with previous versions. Just something to look at...

Other than that one thing. All good. Never had any other issues with your kernels!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vangelis13:
F, can you please release that as a separate cwm file so one can flash it when swapping kernels? That'd be really helpful..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d1pham:
I'm experiencing signal issues with B15. My data connection seems to be jumping between 3G-4G pretty frequently and I actually missed two incoming calls. Can someone confirm this?

AOKP B21

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AzzaD:
I'm getting a noticeable lag in the animation going from home to the apps screen on #15, anyone else getting this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pzyborg:
Been using your kernels but I love the animation I had. Never had a kernel change my boot animation before. Would be nice if you gave us an option to change the boot animation or not. With all the updates I certainly wouldn't want to bother with changing my animation back each time I update the kernel. Not being ungrateful, just don't want to start dealing with that again after getting the pink unicorn situation resolved, lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Penutbutter_N_Jelly:
So far so good with this new one. It would be nice if we had the option for the boot animation or not though
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] berz:
i don't often , But best ****ing line ever XD had me loling for a while.

* Stock GPU clock - I'll give you two options: first, if you cry about this search the thread and you'll find an email that Colin Cross (Google Android team) sent me explaining why stock GPU clock is better. Second option, if you keep crying and asking for "UMFG GAVE ME 512GHZ CLOCKZ" after you've read what Colin said I'll send you a link to listen Cry me a river song from Justin Timberlake.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mzimand:
You can easily delete the bootanimation file before flashing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] berz:
Guy's a small doubt , im gonna buy the franco app just because of the cry me a river line :P because a badass dev deserves badass donations :P .

anyway before i go on a small doubt Hot plug enabler if im not wrong turns off cpu when screen is off or something along that lines does it mean i still get my push to email and whats app blah blah ??

Thanks in advance :D

“Color Gamma Tuning” Still don't work！
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Nop, not me. I haven't changed a single **** that can cause that in this #15, not a single code line that can affect it.

Maybe because you're using francoTurtle? It's the default and aimed for battery. I have no lag what so ever.

No ****?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yeeson:
Hope a great god can solve:)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bradm23:
Franco, do you recommend 1000 or 1200 with the gazelle gov?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kin24173493:
do we have to wipe anything before each flash?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Both work just fine, depends on what you want really.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kin24173493:
i got the same issue. after i flashed #15. i noticed that the cpu is still showing 700-1200 in system tuner. isn't it the default governor in #15 is turtle at cpu 700-1000?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elganja:
is there anything wrong with just going into Franco's app and underclocking it to 1000?

that's what I ended up doing w/ turtle governor chosen
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] n3os33k3r:
Nightly 15 doesn't seem to be working with liquid beta 2. Just gets stuck at bootscreen
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johantheolive:
While I'm not a fan of varying boot animations, it's easily reverted...however, isn't white supposed to be far more power hungry than black on AMOLED screens? It makes little sense to use a bootanimation that is going to be particularly heavy on the battery. It really should be inverted if nothing else.

Also, thank you for reverting the GPU OC. Would be cool if it could be manually adjusted via the app for those who want it, but I'm happy without it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elganja:
agree about the boot animation... and the gpu oc
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] monkey hung:
Inverted boot colors!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
After getting some feedback about the force inclusion of the boot animation I will remove it from the kernel.zip and provide it as an alternative .zip package. Sorry if anyone was angry with this little change, I thought it was cool.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jbdan:
I actually think the boot ani is really cool. Having said that, I think it's important to give users a choice. And you are from the feedback you received so bravo to you!

15 is rock solid well done
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opensourcefan:
Maybe it could added as a side button in your app. One could install and revert from the app itself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] monkey hung:
For the governor, are we suppose to change the clock speed our selves? When I change between the turtle and gazelle, the clock speeds do not show any change when switching no matter which governor I choose, thus making me manually adjust the speed of the governor each time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] superbobup:
yes, you must change it yourself
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AzzaD:
It seems to happen on any governor, maybe lag isn't the right way of putting it. Its like a slowdown in the animation transitioning the 2 screens, but it happens in about the same amount of time as usual...I'll put up a video in a bit
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Thats a very nice idea, thanks! I'm working on the app as we speak ;)

In #15.1 it will boot automatically at 1ghz as turtle will be the default, then you'll be on your own, 0 effort is needed to adjust cpu freqs from the users.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simplistian:
Just remove the ****s in /system/etc/init.d with Root Explorer before flashing kernels...

yeeson do you mean CM9 gamma control?

Hot plug turns off cpu1 when screen is off. You still get your cpu0 for email and whatsapp :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] winner00:
Not sure if you saw my tweet (@expertontech) but CPU settings still don't work in CM9. I know you added the stuff for it in the init.rc file and I believe the problem is those lines need to be moved below on boot. Someone had the same problem here: http://r.cyanogenmod.com/12105 Its also moved below it in stock CM9. Thanks for your hard work and sorry if you feel like I am bothering you to much about this CM9 stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Yes I had seen it, but I had an huge inflow of information, users feedback etc and I couldn't get time to answer. Thanks for the link =)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oli20021978:
All working fine. Maybe a q / a with default kernel settings default voltages etc were great. Read the same question a million times here. Thx for your great work.

As soon as I'm done with the app re-write I'm gonna do a full clean up on my OP's explaining some **** :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] king23adrianc:
just wondering do u enable hotplug and which governor u using and what speed?

want to have the best idle same as u do! (0-1% in 8 hrs?!? crazy @.@) thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
For the guys bothering about the bootanimation. Just put your preferred animation to /data/local instead of /system/media. Now you can flash rom updates, kernels without overwriting your animation every time. Note, it obviously won't work if you're doing a factory reset.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I'm using:

* hotplug mod enabled

* turtle governor with 700/1000
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] momomok:
That's what I'm doing since day 1

Maybe it should be included in OP... :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kin24173493:
is there any conflict between franco kernel updater and system tuner? because both app can adjust the cpu clock speed and governor.

also do i have to do any settings in the screenshot below? thx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AzzaD:
Ok, here is what I'm talking about - well it should be visible haha ...not a big deal really and it might be the rom (aokp b21) or something else, but I only just noticed it after upgrading to #15

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarcLandis:
For anyone interested: I am using Tasker to switch to the francoGazelle governator if specific apps are started and when they are closed switch back to francoTurtle. This way I have the performance needed in some games and the battery life while idling around.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] littleasian:
can anybody post a video of the new boot animation? i personally have a custom boot animation stored in /local/data so i never got to see it...thanks!

ps. AOKP milestone 3 is out on rootzwiki get it now!

Which governor is the best for you and why we should use only frequencies between 700 and 1000?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] minipaolo:
he's using francoTurtle. You can choose according to your needs.

Max freq is set to 1000 to extend battery life. Set it to 1200 if you want.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarcLandis:
Who do you ask?

As Francisco already posted in the changelog the turtle governor is good for battery life and the gazelle for performance. You need to decide what is important for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AzzaD:
nice idea, didn't think that was possible
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atiasdudi:
Franco, since 14.x i have strange bug when i go to Settings->Apps>Running

every app shows 0.00B

also, i used to have 380-400MB free memory prior to 14.x, now i have only 220-240MB

is this a known bug? what should i do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xCharisma:
I've just experienced bootloop on a B15 Franco kernel /w absolutely no changes to settings bar the hotplug enabler and AOKP Milestone 2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrgeo:
Indeed it is, but have to reflash francos kernel after installing that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rob151515:
Thank you for cifs! Working great.

Paid for your app.

Thanks!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarcLandis:
Please read the thread a few pages back and you will see that this is known.

Also on Android memory is there to be used. It is not about having as much free as possible.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nrgaway:
I personally don't see any lag here, but do see a transition animation which looks to be intended.

But what do I know hehe!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarcLandis:
Try to attach the dmesg output:

adb shell dmesg
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marc.tulley:
Had bootloop with V15. Tried to flash back to 14 and now it is stuck on boot animation. Reflashing all....

700-1.3, no UV, no hotplug

Just noticed AOKP MS3 is out so no worries. Maybe redownload V15 and try again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
You can automate nearly everything with tasker it's one of the mightiest apps out there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Reppu:
I have a question about the Kernel behaviour, i hope anyone (not necessarily Francisco) can give an answer.

I am using Codename ROM which includes CPU OC/UV settings and a number of different governors. Then i have flashed Franco's Kernel over it. This Kernel has it's own governors. However, in the ROM settings i still can see the OC/UV settings.

The question is: how do this two interact? Will the Kernel settings overule the ROM ones, or the opposite? Same for governors?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddieN:
Hey Franco :) I just paid for your app to support your GREAT work!!

I have a small issue though.. I don't know if it's ROM or Kernel-related, but flash heavy sites don't do well on your kernel for me anymore :(

Last time they worked well was on AOKP Milestone 2 (iirc) and Franco 9.1. Since then, I've been updating each time (each time with a full wipe) hoping for better performance but to no avail..

The site I am experiencing a lot of input lag and framerate issues/general lag is on the swedish news site "aftonbladet.se". I was blown away the first time I got your kernel (when it was #9.1) as it was buttery smooth (even better than my desktop PC!) but since then it always lags :( The site is pretty important for me..

Well I was just wondering if the performance is ROM or kernel-related.. i could try to find more flash heavy sites to see if its still bad performance.

I'm currently on AOKP Milestone 3 and build #15 of your kernel but its still laggy. AOKP by itself was buttery smooth on the site, but when flashing your kernel on top of it it started crapping out again :( Tried with both francoTurtle and Gazelle, full wipes and reinstalls.. nothing :(

any ideas? Thanks a LOT for your work though :) awesome battery life!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bimo2700mf:
I've changed to Franco 15 from #14.4

this morning had couple of random reboot and finally had to reinstall everything again from zero

This afternoon I've managed to UV 700mhz to 875mv and 1000mhz to 985mv

The result , my nexus freeze couple of time when enter deep sleep mode and I also noticed during deep sleep mode my device couldn't received gtalk notification

My friend tried contact me via gtalk, he see my gtalk icon online but when he tried send messages, I didn't get the notifications , when I waking up the phone with pushing the power button, suddenly the notification showed up

Is this situation normal under Francisco kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bimo2700mf:
I forgot to mention, I'm using Franco turtle 700-1000 mhz
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
Dont undervolt = profit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarcLandis:
Do you have this behavior when you don't UV?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cheami:
In the leankernel thread, it was said that undervolting makes such a small difference, that one unstable forced reboot uses much more battery. What are your thoughts on this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
Just saw your post and tested it out. Apex 1.0 + franco 15 turtle@700/1000. Running butter smooth. Freakishly huge bloated ite, took about 2 mins to load completely, on my crappy 3g signal @work, probably took around 10 mb of data too. But it loaded, and extremely smooth, zooming in, out, scrolling, reading slowly. No issues.

overnight drain in airplane mode using 15:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
PS-just got the app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alain57:

should this be good ?

i'm asking because i have the same drain overnight but i didn't put the phone in airplane mode... just turn off data, wifi, nfc and gps...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
i got 3% in 12 hrs in night airplane mode by using apex kernel. Avg drain 8ma.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elganja:
i'm using codename android as well w/ #15... the governor, oc and undervolt show exactly what franco's app shows.

there are not different choices for me between the two, but I do everything in franco's app and ignore the built in performance section of codename android.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmedandDangerous:
I swear Franco has the best changelog text ever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
The data ich is modified is the same, even the process to do that is the same, since there is just 1 way to do it; its just 2 interfaces to do the same job. The rom interfaces modifies the oc/uv settings of the default kernel; when u replaced it with f15, they modify f15's settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ad1tya:
Why does Franco Kernel have 700 Mhz as the minimum while mostly all other ROM's use 350Mhz as minimum?

Reasoning?

Won't it consume more battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elganja:
search the thread for your answer
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ad1tya:
I did, sorry I couldn't find it. :(

Can somebody link me?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cheami:
I believe it is because the difference between 350 and 700 is very small in terms of battery consumption. Also, 350 is too little for some animations/usage, so the cpu freq will increase, resulting in more battery consumption. With 700, it is the ideal speed as it can handle the usage so it doesn't need to increase too much.

That doesn't sound right... I wouldn't trust me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Elganja:
start here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20920096#post20920096

and read... it doesn't take long to search the thread with the tools xda provides.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] loudaccord:
Race to idle, 700 only uses a negligible amount of power over 350. Twice the mhz for not much more power = win. Cuts down on any lag also. Theoretically its better for battery not having to change frequencies.

Correct me if I'm wrong guys but that's the summary of what I got out of it.

edit: you guys are FAST! triple answer :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bimo2700mf:
Well since first time using Franco.kernel I always under volt & under clock it up to 920mhz

I'll try to follow Franco suggestion, to keep it on the standard voltage n see the result

Btw I still can't use my USB on the go using franco #15

Can anybody show me how to activate it?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] laserprom:
Which is normal voltage for 700 and 1000 mhz.?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johantheolive:
Default voltages are 1300,1200,1100,1000,900.

1000mv for 700mhz and 1100mv for 1000mhz.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] coleburns:
Just installed 15 and i noticed that francoTurtle governor was not set by default after installation and when i picked franco turtle from the list, max was still set to 1200

on kang milestone 3

Forgot to add, manually set max to 1000
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cchhat01:
francoTurtle is amazing

So I just upgraded myself to AOKP21 with Franco nightly 15.

I am getting good results so far.

Here's what I have to say:

All you people complaining about not getting stock francoturtle to run at 700-1000Mhz. WTF? Is it really that difficult to install SetCPU or some variant and adjust the CPU frequencies to your liking? Stop being flashing junkies and understand things about your phone so that you can atleast figure out simple things like this.

Now, my performance... I don't run on stock speeds. I've unplugged my phone since around 11PM last night and its been discharging so far with more that 90% juice still left after 12 hours.

I run francoturtle 700-1000 when the screen is on. When the screen is off I choke the phone by running francoturtle at 350mhz (high and low). Also, when charging, i use the ondemand governor between 350 and 1200Mhz.

Undervolted to

1350 = 1300 mV (unused)

1200 = 1125 mV

1000 = 1050 mv

700 = 950 mV

350 = 850 mV

Here's the kicker... I DON'T TURN OFF ANY SYNC. I have all the gapps installed (gtalk/google+/chrometophone/gvoice, etc). I don't log out of anything, I have instant upload enabled. I have whatsapp sync enabled.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aron7awol:
1. UV can have a very significant positive impact on your battery life

2. Yes, a reboot uses a lot of juice

Conclusion:

Don't UV so low that you are getting any sort of reboots/freezes/SoD.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
lol the graphical bug is back.. so far its happened only when i turn on my screen from lock mode. kind of a pain, it doesnt go away until you restart the entire phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Just flashed your latest OC build. All seems well so far, certainly no graphical issues yet. CPU doesn't like 1.4ghz though, everything seems to lock up every 3/4 seconds for a second. But undervolts nicely. Just trying to find the limit of lowest stable voltage levels now if anyone has some rough guidelines.

Good kernel though, seems quick.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Anyone else having an issue with a very discrete *click* being played by the loudspeaker at very low volume? It seems to happen regularly, usually when a page/screen loads or finishes its transition. Quite sure its kernel specific. Seems like a miniscule issue but its getting me mad.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
OK so just to be clear, is 1021211 gpu over clocked or not?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Undervolting will give you some big improvements. I'm far bellow stock voltage. Keeps it cooler too. Hard to find balance with stability. But well worth finding the limitations of your processor.
