Have you installed the deep idle patch for cna?
[Nexus S Android Development] Paragon_X:
Sorry I can't upload the screenshot, currently at work. But I left my home with 100% charge, played music for about an hour and I have 47% left. Basically it did not sleep, the screen was on and off but still off for a good period. It takes me an hour to get to work.

min freq 200, max 1000, no oc, lazy, sio, deep idle on, using Cyber ROM v8.

This kernel for me is the best in terms of stability and performance but this battery life is clearly kicking my ass. Also I have tried other combinations, noop + lazy, sio + smartass v2, etc... pretty much same result all around. Using latest voodoo version btw

---------- Post added at 12:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 PM ----------

I lost 50% in an hour... granted different settings, min freq 200, max 1000, no oc, sio + lazy, deep idle on.
[Nexus S Android Development] maxi2000:
Your kernel is awesome!

UI on SwAT's MIUI feels a lot smoother now, battery life is great!

Thanks again ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] stexyn:
Ciao,

thank you for reply me.

I try to disable both gps and sync, open and close camera app but the deep idle top=off is still 0 :confused:

No I don't.

I go to look for this patch
[Nexus S Android Development] sean1984:
Great Kernel! Airkernel 3.0 65fps blue colors performance 1400/1400 + Bugless Beast 2/16 Nightly

[/IMG]
[Nexus S Android Development] stexyn:
I read the instruction, flash the patch and now top=off works :D

So thank you very much
[Nexus S Android Development] Paragon_X:
Can you show me this? Link if you don't mind
[Nexus S Android Development] stexyn:
Of course.

-Download CodeName Android ROM Utility here and install it

-from the program download the deepidle patch

-reboot into recovery and flash the patch (you'll find it in the CNA folder)

See the original codename thread here for more info
[Nexus S Android Development] Paragon_X:
Thanks mate. I recently upgraded to Cyber 8, but this ROM looks interesting, a bit tired of reflashing but I might just give this a try. One more question, so you are using the stock kernel that comes with it but patching correct?

Last edit: Taking a look at my phone, idle off seems to work ok... but when music goes I guess it drains poorly... anyways I can't get idle on working it always says 0, that never clocks in the stats
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
I used to get more battery life using CPU idle :(
[Nexus S Android Development] b1337:
no u didnt...
[Nexus S Android Development] ShadowVlican:
same here.. liveoc of 110% without touching the voltages.. rock stable

i mean i was experiencing random reboots with SG's kernel, not Air Kernel
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
LOL
[Nexus S Android Development] al_madd:
V 3 .3 using stock voltage..it will enough if you liveoc to 110%..but like ezekeel said..try liveoc when your battery level is low around 5%..to confirn stable or not..
[Nexus S Android Development] ashwin988:
Sorry, could you elaborate a little more? If its a 5% and not stable, it will reboot or the battery would die faster?
[Nexus S Android Development] sean1984:
if your overclock is stable at 5% battery it is less likely to have reboots and screen of death basically a more solid way to test for a stable overclock :D
[Nexus S Android Development] ashwin988:
Thanks man. Will try it out tonight :P
[Nexus S Android Development] stexyn:
Use Thank's button :D

Codename is great for me.

I use it with air 3.3

In Nstools I undervolted to 800mhz governator conservative

Battery life is very good
[Nexus S Android Development] ashwin988:
Just a quick question. Which is the best proc speed to start the live OC? I am going to 110. I mean I want a stable and smooth phone. Would it be best to start at 1100? or it does not matter?
[Nexus S Android Development] glennkaonang:
As many people have experienced, different phones have different capabilities of being overclocked.

The best thing to do is to set the min and max CPU frequency to your liking, and then try running your phone at low battery level (i.e. 10% or below).

If it can run without reboots, then it's fine and stable enough.

[Nexus S Android Development] defia:
Does anyone meet charging issue with v3.3?

Sometimes my phone shows it is charging but actually i just plugged off the charger.

I also got one freezed percentage of battery , it shows 54% until i reboot the phone and then it shows 95%.

Don't know whether its a kernel issue or my phone is broken.
[Nexus S Android Development] Paragon_X:
Hehe I hit thanks now. Sorry dude, trying my best to understand this. Here is what nstools says.

time avg

Idle 3105325 1

deep idle (top =on) 518410 7

deep idle (top =off) 0 0

As I said, someone told me off saves more power, so is it best I flash the patch considering it did so well in terms of battery consumption over night?
[Nexus S Android Development] migz012788:
I have turned off my deep idle coz my music freezes and hangs. And even somethimes it restarts my phone. By the way, anyone using this kernel with smartassv2 + noop using nstools? Anyone experience problems. I think smartassv2 + noop using nstools is gone :)
[Nexus S Android Development] migz012788:
So the bug fix on smartassv2 is fixed. Is it related on NStools?
[Nexus S Android Development] sean1984:
yes since the governor was fixed nstools(v1.15) should behave correctly when setting parameters for smartassv2 :D
[Nexus S Android Development] migz012788:
Hitted the thanks button :) anyway im using this kernel on codename aosp.
[Nexus S Android Development] migz012788:
You are using the airkernel blue colors 65fps. Is it only applicable for samoled screens? My phone is i9023
[Nexus S Android Development] Lazat:
Suggestion

possible to add this MOD =D ? would be aaaaweeesome!
[Nexus S Android Development] b1337:
i has same problems think its phone issue with the micro usb port
[Nexus S Android Development] r_data:
Released v3.4

Now, you can set the gamma value (Voodoo Color) :)

And I added Selective Live OC in Air Kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] xzilem:
Nice

Installing v3.4 right now. I got signal problem with v3.3 smartassv2. I hope v3.4 can fix my problem.
[Nexus S Android Development] r_data:
I'm so sorry..

I found serious problems in the kernel !!

I'm sorry, I hope back to the previous version !!
[Nexus S Android Development] qaz2453:
My buttons stopped working on 3.4... reverted to 3.3 and it works fine
[Nexus S Android Development] xzilem:
What problem is that? Ok, will use previous version then
[Nexus S Android Development] syncro:

[Nexus S Android Development] r_data:
I solved the problem.

I will test it and upload kernel.

I'm sorry...
[Nexus S Android Development] spupuz:

[Nexus S Android Development] qaz2453:
no need to be sorry :)

you make the best kernel available to the nexus s

we are grateful of that... mistakes happen
[Nexus S Android Development] spupuz:
so now it's not possible to download 3.4?

thanks in advance
[Nexus S Android Development] ranasrule:

[Nexus S Android Development] DaXmax:
I guess it worked better? Downloaded it since 11.01pm..
[Nexus S Android Development] gotjazz:
Did you raise min cpu freq - no issues here with deep idle and a minimum frequency of 400

[Nexus S Android Development] jalyn02:
First and for most, thank you for all of your hard work. I must say, I love the none green flicker version in the with VooDoo colors kernel. I'm having trouble with the buttons as well. Please, I like the way 3.3 kernel colors was and enabling people to change VooDoo colors will bring a lot of confusion to people who don't know how to configure VooDoo.apk app. I'm back to 3.3 kernel version...Thanks again.
[Nexus S Android Development] dome95:
Guys, anyone can link me the 3.3 version of this kernel pls?
[Nexus S Android Development] BraydenJames:
This please! I sadly deleted it when I downloaded 3.4, and there's no link to 3.3 on the blog or front page! Haha. Thanks :)
[Nexus S Android Development] jason62391:

[Nexus S Android Development] flibblesan:
r_data could you check the downloads please? Both the voodoo links are downloaded corrupted. The sever you are using also isn't sending the file size to the browser so I have no way of knowing if the transfer failed or not. Can you provide MD5 hashes too?
[Nexus S Android Development] triosakti:
just flash the 3.4.5 version..

and suddenly my USB transfer rate is just about 300 KB/s (write to device)

while I'm on 3.3 I usually got about 1.5 - 2MB/s to write down from PC to device

is it caused by the updated kernel?
[Nexus S Android Development] androidphone2012:
This kernel is very nice - had no single reboot :) Thanks
[Nexus S Android Development] nexus_junkie:
Indeed, no reboot!

[Nexus S Android Development] cyberd3vil:
I just installed the latest version (3.4.5). The system is incredbly smooth but I have some problem, wifi not connecting ( I have to disconnect and reconnect manually ) and few apps not working, returning a message saying the app is not responding.

Is anybody else experiencing the same issues?
[Nexus S Android Development] ranasrule:
everything good here....no such problems
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
Change governor and see if problems go away if not you may need to fresh flash!
[Nexus S Android Development] Ozone:
i just root and flash the cybergr.

to flash airkernel i just only but the zip on the sd card and then flash with rom manager /recovery ?
[Nexus S Android Development] triosakti:
yes..

but don't forget to wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache before flashing any kernels
[Nexus S Android Development] Ozone:
i flash the kernel without falvik and cache. i have to do it again ?
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
Air_Kernel has a built-in script that takes care of the cleaning. No need to.
[Nexus S Android Development] lvnatic:
How can I live oc all the frequancies like it was before? Now it OCs only from 880mhz and up.
[Nexus S Android Development] atlantis.mu:
use init.d script ;)

#!/system/bin/sh

echo "100000" > /sys/class/misc/liveoc/oc_target

flash the attatch file in CWM recovery
[Nexus S Android Development] androidphone2012:
Very Cool :)
[Nexus S Android Development] nexus_junkie:
only need to revise the number (value)? thanks :)
[Nexus S Android Development] ExtremeGMX:
I'm sorry if this question was already answered but how do you install this kernel ? Until now I have just installed GLaDOS with CWM, is here the same procedure ?

Thanks!
[Nexus S Android Development] sean1984:
yes just flash in cwm recovery :D

How to get Deep Idle working?

I'm using Pixel ROM 1.6 and turned on the Deep Idle but it always TOP=OFF
[Nexus S Android Development] xzilem:
TOP=OFF aka. Deep idle working
[Nexus S Android Development] LKNim:
What is TOP=ON and TOP=OFF:confused:
[Nexus S Android Development] :
It means the Bluetooth and/or gps are not in use. So top = off is the most power saving.

kernels ; battery ; ROM ; gov/sched
[Nexus S Android Development] reference.phone:
Deep Idle and LiveOC patch stable enough on Air kernel at least. No reboot or freeze :) Thanks for this kernel!

[Nexus S Android Development] frenccw:
I don't think so. But unless you performed a controlled test there are way too many factors that will affect your battery life.
[Nexus S Android Development] wolfomega23:
SmartAss V2 + Noop still froze and rebooted phone.

All I did was turn on the screen, unlock, click messages and BOOM it froze and rebooted... smartass v2 + noop works fine on Matr1x but I heard Air has better battery, but I don't know any other good gov, sched, and OC/UV combos... I went down 20% from 100 with Wheatly/cfq, so I have to stick with Ondemand for now...
[Nexus S Android Development] TheLastMirana:
had a reboot while listening to music

100-1000 smartassv2 and noop no live oc and deep idle enabled.

i think deep idle was the culprit because after i disabled that no ore reboots
[Nexus S Android Development] migz012788:
what is added in init.d after installing this kernel??
[Nexus S Android Development] glennkaonang:
As far as I know, it adds 99airtweak inside the init.d folder.

But I don't understand what it does.

I assume that it has something to do with I/O tweak.

That's why this kernel is very fast in terms of I/O.
[Nexus S Android Development] gotjazz:
With deep idle you need a higher minimum frequency. 400 works fine for me - others use 200
[Nexus S Android Development] glennkaonang:
100 still works fine on my phone.

I never had any reboots so far.
[Nexus S Android Development] AndiTails:
Every phone has different tolerances, guys. What works for one might not be stable for another.

sio and lulzactivev2 100/1000 no OC working nice for me.

Download link is down though, would like 3.45 to get my gamma control back.

Yup. Some cpus are made near perfectly and some are not. It's kind of like a luck.

using the 56fps voodoo color only version but has the green flicker with v3.4.5

is it a kernel bug?
[Nexus S Android Development] atlantis.mu:
in early days, voodoo version, the dev borking the Gamma setting to avoid green flicker

since v3.4

"-Set the Gamma value (Voodoo Color). Now, you can set the gamma value !"

cuz some users requested.

use no voodoo version instead :)
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
To avoid green flicker leave gamma values "zero"
[Nexus S Android Development] KryPTiCk0d3:
Wow, I'm going on 25 hours and still have 58% battery, I have never seen this with any kernel I have tried, this is with some calls, some text, email and a couple youtube vids yesterday. No lag at all with it either. Excellent job!
[Nexus S Android Development] ashwin988:
So what is your current Scheduler/ gov , what is your current speed? Are you using deep idle?
[Nexus S Android Development] KryPTiCk0d3:
Ondemand/Noop 100/1000mhz, I am CNA and I haven't applied the deep idle patch.
[Nexus S Android Development] kokwei:
What patch are you referring to?
[Nexus S Android Development] kokwei:
I'm now using SimpleKernel and because it is close to stock it is super stable.

Just to share my experiences before moving to SK, I was on 200/1000 with deep idle on I had freezes while browsing using the stock browser, and another time it froze on me at the homescreen.

Will give 400/1000 a go if it really addresses the stability issues because deep idle saved me a LOT of juice.

On v2.6, butter smooth! All in all, I consider the kernel a success. :)

btw, The bootanimation needs to be reformed. ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] etoy:
no problem! in fact the v1 hack is probably the cause of the green flicker when a gamma lower than zero is used..so your kernel doesn't have that "bug" at the moment :)
[Nexus S Android Development] r_data:
Thank you :)

I'll give feedback to bootanimation author.
[Nexus S Android Development] r_data:

Hi r_data, great kernel! loving the 2.6 cold colors version so far.

the SOD with scary governor still exists, tried setting 200mhz & 400mhz as min freq but as soon as screen turns off -> SOD.

Im still messing with the schedulers because the performance is very minimal between them.. so I still need some feedback :D

It dependes on what version of the kernel is installed I have the blue color option, therefore my options for vodoo colors in the app I do not have since it is hardcoded into kernel.
