[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tyrnight:
if your having issues: try this.. ,if you dont have any strange customizations, backup first, flush cache, reflash your rom from the original zip right on top of your current setup(this flushes out bad scripts etc.). Then, once it comes back up flash either nightly or Milestone kernel. and it should work like a charm.. this is what I do, and I dont loose a thing..

Im using 4.0.4 stock

#66 Franco
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hotstuff5964:
I've been having an issue since flashing r66 last night, my phone is no longer being recognized by my computer. It charges, but it doesn't show up when I plug it in.

I dunno if it's the kernel, I doubt it tbh, but anybody have any ideas? I haven't made any other changes to my phone or pc. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] azsl1326:
Do you have enable Fast USB Charge checked in Franco's App? You need to deselect it so that your computer will recognize it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hotstuff5964:
Lol :o Thanks broseph :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kingoanklebreakn:
Battery life has been great for me. I've been heavily using my phone today.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bendirkss:
Screenie? So far today I've been getting better battery life with M1. I'm gonna let it sit over night and see how it drains. I think I'll stay with M1 if this keeps up

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] colinjreed:
Ok, so again, I'm running CNA 1.5.0 and Franco m1. I'm at 14 hours on battery with 9% left and 1 hr 18 minutes screen on time. 1200 to 350 all uv 100 and conservative. I'm going to try the latest nightly, but even what I'm getting is far lower than on Franco nightly 18.2. Any suggestions on how to get more out of the battery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sway40:
Try 1000 max 700 min, juice defender works really good for me so id recommend it if your not already using it. Make sure hotplug is enabled, if all else fails go with all that on 18.6 which was really good in battery.

~ Sent from my GNexus running Aokp~
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] colinjreed:
I'll give that a shot. Thanks. I've used juice defender in the past, but I use Google voice for texts, so I don't like having my data off when the screen is off. And is 18.6 available for download still if I want to give that a try?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sway40:
Yeah it's a link a few pages back to all of franco kernels.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alphanu22:
After flashing #66 last night, woke up to 100%. Its always been 97%. This is so much win rite now-
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KassaNovaKaine:
How many hours on idle? That's ridiculously good battery life for overnight. Are you using Juice Defender or anything supplementary to franco?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JayDaKissEP:
Can someone link me to the changelog for 66? I know Franco said that it's in his gsm thread but I can't find it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bendirkss:
I got about that with M1, r66 seems worse but I've only tried it for one night. I should try it for a few days before saying anything i think.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bendirkss:
I used M1 during the day and then flashed r66 before I went to bed. Right before my battery goes straight down(I drew the arrow) is where I flashed r66, played on my phone a bit then went to bed.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alphanu22:
Oops my bad. I forgot to say its on the charger.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bendirkss:
So you lost 3% while charging overnight ?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alphanu22:
No lol. Usually on the charger once it hits 100% it drops down to 97% while its still on the charger. now it trickle charges at 100% the whole time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bendirkss:
Oh! That's weird. Mine has always stayed at 100 unless I used BLX
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tree of Knowledge:
So I flashed AOKP M4 and decided to use that stock kernel and see how it was. Only lasted two days and I flashed 18.4. Phone's running wonderfully yet again, your kernel is amazing Franco.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gja88:
Anyone try this kernal on the official CM nightly? Thinking about flashing it to give it a shot, but I was hoping to see what other users are getting on this rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kingoanklebreakn:
I use it on Winner's build which isn't much different and it works great. I can easily get 4 hours of screen on time. I have the 2100mah battery but I've also gotten 4 hours on my standard battery as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dylerium:
Had a random reboot and now all my apps force close upon opening what do I do? ):

On nightly r66
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TEK112:
Fix permissions and clear all caches.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dylerium:
how long does fixing permissions take? its taking forever on my phone, and another thing, all my apps work if i re-install them...

EDIT: thanks that fixed it :D

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EniGmA1987:
512MHz is a huge overclock on the GPU. To do so you would need a very significant voltage increase as well, which would cause the phone to become even hotter than it already is at stock. Also being highly damaging to the GPU.

If you truly did set the GPU to run at 512, how are you even able to do it? Also seems opposite to what you believed before about the GPU speed so it seems odd to me that you would flop the complete opposite way so suddenly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
I wanted to play a little and users liked it so I decided to work on it, doesn't mean that I like it or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Frozinite:
I just reflashed Franco M1 after flashing aokp M4 for the first time. I noticed in the rom settings that the default governor is ondemand. I thought the default governor should be conservative? Did that change with Franco M1 (default governor not listed on front page) or is aokp acting strangely with Franco. I can still set it to conservative by checking set at boot so its not a big deal, but just confused.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] williamthegoat:
Antutu dropped from 6700 to 5700 after updating from 66. Weird. Huh even after flashing back they're still low. Weird.

Quadrant dropped from around 3500 to 2400 as well. Any idea why?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smabbage:
Revision numbers are really jumping. 66 to 75 to 85 in one day. We'll be into four figures by May at this rate. :D Thanks for the hard work!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eman3316@optonline.net:
Not sure if this is something that can be changed at the kernel level or altered at all, but it would be great if we can make the vibrate stronger in the Verizon GN. Is this something that can be tweaked through the kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] axne1:
Just flashed the nightly. Will test. If you use the Franco app upgrade it first before you flash 85.. the first time I didn't and it did a random reboot on me. Now seems stable thanks Franco!

Btw I love the color control it's awesome!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chevelle1768:
I was wondering the same thing. I installed MIUI and the vibrate is stronger on it vs CM9.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mengheng:
Here are my battery results with AOKP M4 and Franco M1, seems to be really bad today for some reason.

What can I do to improve this? I've only had my phone for about 2 weeks, it's not an old battery. I set scaling governor to conservative, max cpu to 1000MHz, min cpu to 700MHz. I don't mind performance, I haven't messed with voltages. Any tips from longtime android users. Still fairly new to all this.

EDIT: I also turned off 4G.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mengheng:
Thank you for responding. Kernel's need time to adjust? That is news to me, thank you for that piece of information. Also where is this hotplug option? I've looked online and it looks like I should just be able to enable it. Under Rom Control>Performance>Scaling Governor I only see conservative,ondemand,performance. I've had it on Conservative.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bengals1975:
it's been my experience that it helps them adjust to run a couple full charge cycles. (run till your phone powers off on it's own, fully charge, repeat once or twice).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cesium:
it's in the franco kernel app
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] axne1:
+1 for the app recommendation!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danman7:
I've read this on several threads. However, this seems apocryphal. What evidence is there of this? What would be the cause of this condition.

I'll be interested to hear the explanation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dmmarck:
Oh well, savings are worth it.

Just auto-flashed it ontop of Monolith B1. So good so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sway40:
Your android os is really high so you've got a system app running a lot which happens. Download better batter stats app is free on xda just search you'll find it it's easy, it'll tell you if you have a rogue app draining you're bat. If you can I recommend juice defender, my results speak for thereself with over a day of bat life and over 3hrs screen on time. This with aokp M4 and r66.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bendirkss:
My OS is always high. I've done OK for today I think. I thought the OS being high was a bug and it just shows it being high, but its actually not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
You are in a bad signal area. Low signal = bye battery. Flash the latest nightly as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sway40:
Damn I didn't know the signal contributed to that being high.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Gahh Its Lee:
This is documented over and over as being very bad for our batteries.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mengheng:
Looks like I'll have to go buy that. I wanted to wait a little bit to see if I liked Franco Kernel, but I love it so I might as well.

EDIT: Bought the app, this seems a lot easier. I might shift to nightlies since the app makes it so easy. I'm going to try enabling hotplug and get juicedefender on top of that if it doesn't help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alphanu22:
if so put use a LTE Toggle. i work in a metal building and LTE is there but no bars. switch LTE off and 3G 2 Bars. Battery last alot longer-
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bendirkss:
Ya I flashed it as soon as I got home. I love the auto flash, very good idea !

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bendirkss:
Nuff said huh. Your navigation bar looks sick btw. M4? Or a different rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] williamthegoat:
What does the francoturtle governor do that we all love? I've just been using on demand.

I guess its obviously meant for battery, but you mentioned watching interactivity...will we lose much performance with it? I mostly use my phone for texts, web browsing, and light casual gaming.

And what do you folks keep your gpu at? Normal 307 or is it worth bumping? And does that have much of an impact on battery. It looks like either way its using the same voltage.

So many questions and edits in one post!

Is sound a kernel or rom thing? I just flashed aokp m4 and Franco m1 and noticed when I played Pandora in my car the sound was weird. Like, when you get a text message the music goes quiet for a sec and plays the ring tone, except it was permanently quiet until I received a text message (could be minutes later).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] HyBReDM:
Just bought the app. Curious, are the changes for the sake of battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miguel11691:
I got the 4.0.4 rom that is rooted and its run great with milestone 1...;
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bengals1975:
Interesting. Not sure I've seen any of that rationale. I'll look around to see if I can find threads on that to learn more about why that may be the case but, knowing what I know about lithium polymer batteries, I can't see how that would cause any problems. It's not like this is a Ni-cd or that discharging until the phone powers off will completely discharge the battery (if you wait till the phone powers off, turn it on, wait till it powers off again, etc until it won't turn on anymore before you start your charge is a different story).

I do have another question though, I saw mention in an earlier post that this kernel will trickle charge once we hit 100%, which isn't good for Li-po's and will reduce the battery life. This is why it will drop a few percent after hitting 100% then go back up (or drop a few percent fairly quickly after you unplug it). Anybody know if this is how the kernel operates? If so I don't believe that's the Samsung default charging profile and may keep me from flashing this kernel, even tough I've already bought the app :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bendirkss:
Idk if this is caused by the kernel or what but I use whatsapp all day and sometimes when I'm typing a new message, mainly when I leave a conversation open then lock my screen, unlock it and start typing again, no text will pop up. It shows me typing but nothing will pop up. Anyone ideas?

Kernel has sound drivers in it, ROM has sound libraries

This kills me when I go running. I need to text myself to get music to bump at full volume, have to do it everytime I switch out of the stream. Why?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KassaNovaKaine:
Anyone else have their color values reset on boot? I'm on the latest nightly and it didn't used to do this on previous builds. Is it broken again?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] upther:
Have you tried his newest nightlies? I don't notice any sound dropping with the sound hack in the newest nightlies. I'm on r85.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] axne1:
Franco please put back the phone the way it was a couple versions ago. The sound quality now is not even close. Are you still have mine set at 17 and it sound terrific. Not when I listen through my headphones the bass isnt knocking as hard. I know people bother you a lot. But this is my first time bothering you:)

Please bring back that super sound quality. The 1 that allowed us to crank it up to 20 and beyond. Thanks franco for your awesome hard work!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NintendoSpy:
It's working better for me now more than ever actually. With the old system my volume was un-listenably low.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Frozinite:
I don't seem to be getting the same battery stats as a lot of people here. I've gathered numbers for franco 17.4 + stock 4.0.4 rom, aokp m4 standalone, aokp m4 + franco m1, and there are savings with the latter combination, but it's not as extreme as what I had hoped. Here are some screenies - can anyone see anything glaringly bad? I know about the wlan_rx_wake problem and that's an issue with my work wifi pinging my device often, but I can't really fix that without just turning off wifi and using straight 4G (considering it). I just add about 30min to my on screen time to account for it. Also if anyone's wondering, this is after 2+ charge cycles, so I've given it some settle time already.

ROM - AOKP M4

Kernel - Franco M1

Governor - Conservative

Battery - extended

Usage style - light, checking emails, sending a few texts, generally no phone calls (forever alone!! :( ) and no heavy data usage (browser, etc). Always wifi except while driving (~1 hour daily). Two widgets (weather, gmail). No Juice Defender.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Weird.. I just flashed 94, the team kang splash screen came up and my phone turned off. Turned it back up and now it's starting up optiomizing the applications. Never saw this before. When my phone turned on, it was acting pretty weird as well. Part of my screen was black and was acting wacky.

I always prefer to wipe Cache/Dalvik when installing any kernel. I really don't think you need to just going from Nightly to Nightly but it still makes me feel better knowing that I am sort of starting fresh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dadsterflip:
OK cause I know he was experimenting 512 on his nightly and I enjoyed that gpu change on his app but its gone now on the new update.

384 is cool but 512 is pushing it for me. I'm not really into the benchmark etc. Just want my phone to run smooth and better battery life.

For what it's worth, before flashing back to leankernel last night, my "kernel" entry in BetterBatteryStats was eating up to almost 50% app usage with nothing else more than about 4%.

Not sure what the problem is and I'd love to solve it as I very much like your kernels.
