I know its gone. I am just saying that I find the idea interesting, and ask if Franco is considering working on that some more!

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] M3drvr:
Sooo weird! I can run r97 perfectly with the 512gpu click but not r98 with the 460gpu clock. Get artifacts and freezing all over the place! Weirdest thing ever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Exostenza:
Yes I have this too sometimes. Completely random. On AOKP M4 and my friend with a stock SGS 2 on 2.3.5 just started complaining about the exact same thing.

@Franco there is a weird bug with the audio. Whenever I play my music I have to hit volume up to get the highest volume. No matter what I do it always starts back up with slightly lower volume than max. Strange.

r98 other than that working pretty damn well!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikulogical:
recommended frequencies with m2? I was using m1 so 700/1300 was stuck.

I set it to 1344/729. I want a good mix of battery and performance. Will lowering the minimum benefit me?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] websterzx10r1:
I just set my MIN to 729 checked and the max at 1344 checked rebooted and phone restarted without any problems, just when it came back on the min was back at 384 min. running Black ice.

Can someone explain to me why in AOKP MS4, when the screen is locked, I can access the drawer and bypass the lock screen?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samizad:
Doesn't happen on mine! I'd guess it is definitely not kernel related. Try re-flashing a clean ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Laynee1:
I saw in changelog that Franco removed min 700 frequency..

Is 700 minimum still best for performance + battery (that was discussed over a month ago i think)

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the hard work but sound control is not working there is not difference between 0 or 3 high performance or normal that append updating the app and using the new M2

What are the best undervolt settings?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fjdifede:
Franco

OK installed back R98 and sound control works reinstalled M-2 and is not working so the bug is on the new kernel hope you don't take sound control out like the GPU overclock I liked that option!!!!. Or make one with higher sound and gpu level and the other normal that way people choose.

Hey Franco is Battery Life eXtender in your kernel? I know Glados has it, just curious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chardd23:
Will that Black Theme increase battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nascasho:
His milestones are meant for stability, you'll see those features in nightly builds. So far the M2 been great, nothing weird or anything yet.

Btw a question Franco or anyone if you don't mind me asking, and I think I see why you leave the gpu locks stock, but I was running AnTuTu benchmark and comparing graphics scores between r98 and M2. r98 I read somewhere mentioning that it was at 460Mhz for GPU?

comparing M2 to r98 3d tests:

M2: 1232

r98: 1233

So 307Mhz vs the 460Mhz and zero gain, unless r98 was also 307 mhz?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] M3drvr:
For me, I've turned off hot plug and use the 300 frequency for my low and have seen zero decrease in battery life. Maybe its a placebo effect but I would swear my phone is in deep sleep more now like that. In fact over a 9 hour stretch my phone lost less than 2% battery while I was sleeping. And when I wake it from deep sleep it doesn't have the lag from waking up the 2nd core anymore. Don't know if that answers your question or nit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JcMalta:
They vary from phone to phone ... and as has been discussed undervolting is only _marginally_ useful - one reboot caused by a bad undervolt will lose the very small battery savings you may have gained by undervolting in the first place.

Of course it is your choice, but I have always stayed with Franco's recommendations - and have never had a SOD or crash with his kernel.

I trust the expert!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pastasauce:
For the apps that are usually white (g-mail), yes this will help battery life. The AMOLED screen is made such that different colors use different amounts of power, in relative terms, a pure white screen uses approx. triple the power as black screen. It's just how it works.

I'm new to this theme business, do I flash the .zip as I would other files? How do I revert back to original theme if necessary?

On a side note, just flashed franco's m2. Will be testing it all of tomorrow. Franco, you are a beast my friend, always timely releases and always such quality. Kudos sir.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samizad:
Yes. Just flash the theme .zip. However, I got bootloops. The only way I got past it was to do a full wipe, do a fresh install of the ROM (and Gapps) and then flash the theme. Then, of course, flash franco.kernel.

To revert, restore your Nandroid that you will surely make before you do all the above ;)

r97 performed noticeably better for me than r98 did. which is what i'm using now. but i hate the sound hack bug. (actually don't need a sound hack, volume+ 1.9 works very consistently for me)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] apsis:
R98 performs great, battery life is good so far and it feels smooth. But unfortunately, even if it's not undervolted, my device won't come back alive from standby often, I have to power on again, cause it's being shutdown in between. I don't know why this happens, I removed all undervolting,I tried 700mhz as lowest frequency and I unchecked hotplug. But I always liked hotplug because of the life battery usage. I just started getting issues with hotplug on the latest nightlies. Any idea why? Could this also be ROM related? I'm on the latest aokp.

Hey all,

Just to get some feedback from the people that have moved from r98 to M2; how has your phone been running? Do you notice the difference in the gpu clock speed? (5xx vs. 3xx?)

R98 is rock solid for me, so just curious what people are noticing out there......

And Franco, to have all of your night lies, and an M2 after only 13 days from M1? Awesome work and dedication! I speak for all of us using your kernel; "You have made our Galaxy Nexus much better than stock!"

Thanks again!

I think you'll mainly notice the gpu difference just when you're playing games. I'm not basing this off of anything, but I'm gonna flash M2 for the hell of it...coming from r98.

I get the exact same thing. 512oc runs great but 460 lags the heck out of my phone. Very strange.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KLUVJ:
then ur no lag with 512 is just a lucky flash. your gpu is still unstable at clocks 460 and 512. i used to get lucky with both 512 and 460 gpu ocs. sometimes reflashing the kernel after a dalvik wipe works, sometimes not. so i just decided to stick with m2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Maguire11:
I've had this problem before I started using francos at all. I uninstalled all updates from the app and it stopped. I don't know if they have fixed the issue since then? Anybody know?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
I agree. I had the same experience.

Flash the 512 and it may run for hours no problem. Reboot and I would get artifacts and lag.

Same with 460 although to a much lower extent, 460 was generally perfect for my phone.

I'm on M2 now and to be honest I don't see any drop in performance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vomer:
Sounds like a app issue in that case. Sucks

Franco friend excellent work with this kernel, use AOKP Milestone 4 and Milestone 2 Kernel.

First: The CPU 1228 MHz is less than or equal to 1200 MHz performance nightly had the best performance.

Second: You can improve memory performance and processes I / O Galaxy SII is huge in this section therefore show evidence numbers above 4000 points in Quadrant and stock ROM.

Thank you ...

What settings u have ? Overcloked or something else or tbe settings that came with the kernel ??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Serious_Beans:
I think I need a fresh install of everything, getting sub par battery life and I know I could be getting more. This kernel is awesome though. Really smooth and the phone is lasting me through the day but barely :/. The app is really worth it for this kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MontAlbert:
Created my cpuspy stats before going to bed last night... I charged my phone overnight... when I got up this morning and checked cpuspy it did unused states were 384 (I have 700 as my minimum) and deep sleep. So the phone was unable to go into deep sleep over night.

thinking I might have a rogue app running around but it must be new because it was deep sleeping yesterday... All I have done ROM/kernel wise is to wipe data in Franco app and redo the settings in there.

Running r98. Have now installed better battery stats.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kanemari:
placebo effect my friend. go back to 98 and you will notice the difference.

although the popping thing would be true because that's caused by the sound hack, which you don't have.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
Betterbatterystats will show you which process is causing the wakelock.

sometimes a reboot sorts out the problem, sometimes an app needs to be removed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:
Your phone won't deep sleep when its plugged in. Mystery = solved.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
I don't think that's true.

Mine deep sleeps when its plugged in, just not when in mtp.

EDIT: That is definitely incorrect. Just checked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MontAlbert:
do i check partial wakelocks or kernel wakelocks? Kernel wakelocks tells me "No reference since unplugged set yet" and the line graph is at 100%.

CPU Spy now tells me it has been deep sleeping, so maybe mine has something set so that it wont deep sleep while charging? NFI tbh...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
Partial wakelocks.

I don't think that is possible, it should deep sleep regardless of whether it is plugged in or not except if it is connected through mtp.

Check cpuspy, note deep sleep stats, plug in phone, let it rest for a min or two and then check deep sleep stats again. Mine deep sleeps when plugged in so yours should too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:
I've seen quite a few people mention it not deep sleeping while charging. Mine never has on any charger. It deep sleeps fine off the charger.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
I have read that the gs2 doesn't but not that the gnex doesn't.

What I'm trying to say is, I know it does deep sleep on charge coz I tested it.

You must have something causing it not to such as a setting if some kind.

If one gnex does then another must. Same hardware and same kernel.

I searched and I couldn't really find anything definitive about it not deep sleeping on charge.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Remoteconcern:
Mine deep sleeps on a charger, just tested.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MontAlbert:
and this setting is where? Is that in the kernel app? Or in system settings? So many settings these days i lose track of where everything is
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:
Well thats probably it then. I guess people who use it don't get deep sleep. Good to know.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
Its in settings>developer options.

That may be your problem or else there was a rogue app/process keeping the phone awake.

What does betterbatterystats say under partial wake locks?

Loving r98, performs well and has fantastic battery life. At work today so no 5hr screen on like yesterday, but real world usage and after 14hrs I'm at 46%!

That includes a 3hr commute involving music and reading, some of that underground so constantly searching for a signal. Half hour of phone calls and the usual stuff pushing.

Franco, not really sure what you can do to improve upon it!?!!! I commend your dedication and perseverance.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:
Hey I saw your post about not sleeping on the charger. I don't have enough posts to reply in thread so if its helpful feel free to repost.

I have had my phone not deep sleep on charger. To make sure it sleeps (it charges noticeably faster while in sleep), plug in charger. Check CPU spy for how much sleep u have currently. Turn screen off for 20-30 sec. Turn on and check if sleep time went up. If not, unplug, wait 2-5 seconds, plug back in. Turn screen off and wait 20-30 again. Check deep sleep. Repeat if not sleeping.

In my personal experience, I think its a software bug since it will sleep 90% of the time on my second time plugging it in. Whenever I enable USB fast charge, the bug goes away completely. Its almost like its not sure if it wants to charge or transfer data from the usb. I've only tested this with an AC wall charger since I never really use car chargers if I can avoid it.

Hope this helps!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] W3BSurfer:
Franco! Thanks for the update. I noticed that this kernel is alot smoother than the previous one. Also the battery improved alot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kwurky:
The M2 kernel is so great. Updated last night before going to bed. The phone lost only 3% in 8 hrs. Most Impressive. Before that I would lose about 2% every hour. This is with WIFI/sync off, Power Saver ON.

This kernel version has really reduced the # of partial wakelocks. The time duration of partial wakelocks is also reduced significantly and deep sleep achieved for like 95% of the night. I hope the battery level measurement is accurate enough for me to make this conclusion.

Do u undervolt..?Care to share voltages?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dynamicpda:
Two questions

Am I looking in the right place for all the commits that are in the latest Milestone (2)?

When I look here

https://bitbucket.org/franciscofranco/android-tuna-omap/changesets

I don't find the commits corresponding to the items listed in the Milestone 2 changelog. I am not a developer or compiling from source. I would just like to follow the changes in the source.

For those of use who test other kernels, how do we disable the Franco.kernel app besides uninstalling it? I switch between Franco kernel and lean kernel. I've noticed problems running lean kernel and leantweaks with the Franco app installed. I had to disable leantweaks to fix the problems. When Franco app is installed, it governs lean kernel even if i have almost nothing enabled in the settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raubkatze:
I think it doesn't need to be undervolted if use these settings: wifi/sync off, power saver on, conservative governor with 384-1036MHz.

For me the battery drain is 0,6-0,8%/h when phone is idle. And I didn't stop sync mail, social etc., wifi is always on.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Francois88:
After a while of getting frustrated trying to find an app keeping wakelocks on my phone (Android System was blamed by Badass Battery and Battery Monitor Widget), I think I might have finally found the culprit.

I was using a full wipe AOKP m4 setup with r98 (ondemand min384 max1228) for a day with a few reboots and it was never deep sleeping. I rebooted once again this morning with the problem and decided to bump the min to the default min729 and apply very light UV and now the phone deep sleeps... I reverted that change to see if I could reproduce the old behavior but I couldn't ... It now deep sleeps with 384 too...

I don't want to lay blames, but my wild guess is maybe your app or startup service to apply settings at boot somehow gets wakelocks?
