I wish I had the time, patience and...the brains to learn more about Linux, hardware and stuff, so I could understand at least 50% of what you guys are posting, what I find very interesting anyway...:rolleyes:

All I know is that when I freeze (with Titanium app or similar) all kind of Google background stuff, I get an amazing battery performance on EVERY kernel I tried , even on CF Root which is very close to stock , specially on screen-off/ stand-by overnight and no need to go into airplane mode.

As a side-effect Market becomes nonfunctional and defrosting everything wont help anymore, but I don't care, since there are enough Market alternatives out there and the benefits I get by freezing all that Google stuff are remarkable .

Right now I decided to go back to CF Root, cause since on Franco Kernel, my device was getting in some situations a bit overheated and one of my favorites apps, Tegrak Overclock Ultimate ( I like to play with it from time to time) is not really functional of this Kernel ...

By the way, am I the only one experiencing eventual overheating on this Kernel?( try listening to music or streaming radio and at the same time browsing the net for at least 15 minutes ....)

.

I can only replicate this for a couple of hours if I have all these switched off

No, like I said, everything is on except WiFi.

I didn't mean a sleep problem, I mean when using the phone and I also didn't change anything on the phone since coming from abyss yesterday, I only tried this kernel after I read some posts of great battery life.

Actually, I did change something, I deleted 3 scripts from init.d, S01sysctl, 01efs and 02Rocket.

If i select conservative it imediatly jumps to 1400MHz and it only goes down to 200MHz if i leave it completely still for almost a minute and with few apps working on background, but even so it constantly ramps back up to 1400MHz again even without me touching the phone.

With ondemand and even with more apps running on background the CPU remains at 200MHz while I don't touch it (both cases with screen on ofc)

Also, before, on the 1st ttime I flashed Franco kernel, I would set conservative to 200 - 1000MHz for example, but the cpu wouldn't comply, it would keep going at 1400... After that I installed abyss kernel, then used the clean script and put back Franco kernel so now I can set the Max speed for conservative correctly, but the cpu still almost always remains at the Max setting.

Overheating gone with ondemand but still uses more battery than abyss tho, I already lost 20% battery in 1h and with the CPU set at 1000MHz Max (this while using the phone for browsing using only edge).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] nobnut:
I know, I was referring to both sleep and scaling. I posted my screenshots earlier which include a CPU Spy screenshot showing that scaling on the conservative governor works perfectly.

Like I said before... check your apps and settings.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] franciscofranco:
I just did a 30m train ride with max brightness, 3g and music on while browsing and no overheat what so ever.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] vuidoi:
@franco.

Governom is conservative the best or ondemain is the best? I see my kernel governom is conservative not ondemain. How can i change? With voltage control or how? Thank so much your kernel
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] hardik_hrc:
I like you man!!

I am not on your kernel yet but soon i will i am still understanding my last custom ROM fiasco which ruined my battery life and performance compared to stock once i figure it out i am flashing yours and gonna stick to it because i have not seen any other Kernel Developer this responsive(No arguable offense).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] amytjia:
you can try this way it works with my device, run wifi on speedmod kernel and make sure it connected, flash franco kernel thru mobile odin, cheer up!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] DrADP:
Have you tried flashing your ROM again with mobile Odin and inserting Franco kernel in the kernel section? Works every time for me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] eroracing:
How did you flash a zip using Mobile Odin?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] DrADP:
Open zip using root explorer and you will see a zimage. Insert that. Just take note of where the zimage extracted to.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] amytjia:
extract zip file and flash zImage just that, cheer up
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] wertico:
how can overclock? with setcpu and other programs i can't apply 1600...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dhruvmalik:
Does 1400Mhz remain stock but the ability to overclock to 1600, OR is the Kernel always clocking at 1600Mhz max?

In short, can we set it back to 1400Mhz?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] adv1sory:
You set 1600 from francos app. By default the kernel is set at 1400
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] shaolin95:
Just go over 7800 Antutu at 1600Mhz. Now I feel the need to try Tegrak with GPU oc (well if it works that is).

This kernel is smoking! :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] noobhero:
thanks for the update franco!

guys, anyone of you have the updates cwm manager from CF-Root-SGN_DX_OLB_LP9-v5.5-CWM5.zip

mind uploading? thanks! just using it for the reboot function :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] shaolin95:
Is this with Tegrak?

With Setcpu at 1600 I can get about 4700-4800
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] yellowpad:
the kernel is great....very snappy. however, i may have to downgrade. my note gets hot to the touch. I don't think that is healthy. I restarted.....wipes....still same issue.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dereknas:
Hi Franco, for the 1600 overclock, is this on stock voltage or you have upped the voltage to accommodate this speed?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Saintrheno:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] ramabg:
Many Android games is optimized for wide range of device (from Galaxy Mini to Galaxy S2) hence they will not utilize all Galaxy S2 potential.

I played NOVA 3 and 800 Mhz CPU is smooth enough.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] MeZmeriZe_:
Quick question... one other thing that Tekrak offers is to lock GPU to 267mhz...

Doing this improved my GPU scores.. wondering if it's possible to set it up so that when the CPU switches to 1600 the GPU is fixed at 267 ???

That way for people who don't overclock it's not an issue.. but for people that need it.. the speed is there...

just a thought.

cheers

Frank
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] tstrooper:
How to flash it? through cwm or through mobile odin? which is safer?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] shaolin95:
If you dont say where you are coming from you are not helping much I think.

But that is what I did...but I was coming from a "safe" kernel/rom though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] turilo:
I had to go back to r4 I was having some weird things happen my screen would randomly either freeze with a **** load of colours and reboot or the screen would just pixel salad like crazy and had to hold power to reboot and that's without cpu changed to 1600 to bad I was loving the r5 oc speeds
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dereknas:
What ROM were you on and how long have you had R5 installed?

So far I've not overclocked too but have not encountered the problems mentioned by you. Would like to hear though from those who are using 1600 whether it is stable and how's the temperature.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] aussiebum:
Hi Franco,

Are you able to add 100mhz cpu freq steppings (ie. 100,200,300,400mhz, etc) in the next release?

Want to have those for fine tuned use with the pegasusq governor.

Thx
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] turilo:
I'm on kingdroid v2.0 with sgs3 mod
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dbzgts:
After flashed it feels a little warm but just leave it for a while.. After that it'll stable like always

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] MeZmeriZe_:
Odd.. that is the exact same setup as me.. and I'm loving this.. much smoother than r4 and better scoring.

Someone else asked the best way to install r5... I use mobile oden.. extract the zimage from the zip using root explorer or something, then point mobile oden to it and flash.. I've been swapping to and from speedmod and franco for a while now this way.... Think r5 is my new favourite though...

best benchmarking and best feel to it as well.

For what is pegasusq governor used? O.o
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Insane Devil:
Hi all.

i am on stock Indian ICS - LP8.

will the r5 kernel work with this rom?

i have read mixed response to it a few pages back, some saying it not working, while kingdroid rom is LP8 and working with r5.

please help. thanks!

ps: been using the LP8 from past 1 week, its laggy and battery is lasting less than gb with exact same setup. :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] nathsgames:
Was using SetCPU with V5 Kernel and wasn't happy at all. Well scoring, but lots of random reboots.

Now using Franco's own app and see how that goes.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] M3TALLICA:
Reboot and freezes are likely if you undervolt.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] clandestino123:
Hi folks, flashed v5 earlier and noticed a few weird things happening (phone quite warm, 1 random reboot, apex launcher freezing, screen transitions not smooth).

Rebooted a few times, pulled battery etc, and most of these issues disappeared... however the phone continued to feel very warm, and battery was discharging fast.

Have since gone back to v4, with no problems.

>>Also, one other thing, CWM in v5 was a bit weird. The home button was no longer able to select. Instead I needed to use the power button. Then the power button stopped working and I couldn't select anything ! A reboot fixed this.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] EdgaBimbam:
yeh had same problem with recovery at first but after reboot it fixed. Came from speedmod and so far no problems with franco r5, using ondemand 200-1.6ghz, battery life isnt so good but i prefer performance>battery :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] shaolin95:
Visiskai teisingai :D

Thats how I roll too! :) Although I cannot judge battery life still since I just flashed today...and besides I have extra batteries and I am usually plugged in anyway.

Awesome kernel...Nova3 runs stunning and so does Mass Effect. All I need is GPU ocing for Paradise! :eek:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] mustekaslan:
r5 good

franco r5, I think it is working properly.

I'm using it : "min 500 mhz - max 1400 mhz " very good battery life and performance enough for me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Evaravenspell:
Guys i seem to have some problems with r5.. My screen loves to go pinkish purple and nothing seems to respond.. Is there a problem with my oc? Im using it with RRv3. Happened twice today.. So i revert back to r4..

i overclocked and had never faced up with any issue, using lpy stock rom
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] tw15tr:
Is there any advantages in using Franco's app to set the CPU over say setcpu?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] sangalaviral:
Since chainfire fixed the cwmr but still update.zip is still buggy which contains format command.

But franco disabled emmc erase commqnd in the kernel itself.

So can it be infered that update.zip with format command is safe with r5 of this kernel??

Sometimes screen freezes with purple and green effects at #5. And it switched off by itself sometimes. Flashing to #3....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] REVERSiN:
Well indeed franco sets it to 1400 by default abd includes the 1600 option yiu can use setCPU ti change this and set maximum level to 1600 instead of 1400.

Nope i just SetCPU to 1600 boosted it to work only at 1600 meaning the minimum level set at 1600 too ran test got a n0ce result but nope didn't use tegrak though you can since its better Yes, I understand can overclock cpu and flew with it which is by far more results to get.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dereknas:
After installing Franco R5 (extracting zimage and flashing using mobile odin), noticed 2 things.

1. Lost root.

2. Wifi stuck at obtaining IP address.

Solved 1 by using dr. ketan's file SU-Busybox-Installer.zip.

But I can't seem to get my wifi working again.

Noticed also I can't flash other kernels using mobile odin. After flashing, phone reboots and when check under settings, still showing Franco #5.

I'm was on TMT 1.4.2 btw. Anyone with similar issues running on the same setup as me?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] hdragom:
I am running r5 since it came out. Operating Rocket Rom v3 with it. Super smooth, no problems with wifi or anything else reported. For me this Kernel Rocks.

Battery life is also incredible.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jackkarthickg:
Same problem here, lost root after flashing #5 :( , so i reverted back to #4...

I dont know wat went wrong, i tried flashing zimage, same result... happy with #4.... ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] eybee1970:
i experienced #5 laggy in scrolling sometimes.....whyever
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] DrADP:
Just flash your ROM with mobile Odin and insert Franco #5 zimage instead of the standard one that shows up automatically. For some reason flashing all this together seem to fix the problem.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dereknas:
I flashed #4 back, wifi still no go.

How did you get your root back?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] ValenteL:
Flashed r5 on AIBa rom XXLQ2. No problems. LQ2 accepted.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] REVERSiN:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] madbird:
stock LPY and franco r5 device switches off itself

Hi, i used r3, r4 before and yesterday changed to r5, i flashed it an have done a reboot, so good so right. then i put the phone to my desktop stand to charge, after maybe two hour (or more) i push the home button to wake the phone up, but nothing happens. pressed power button some time, the screen shows the charging animation of an switched off device, i pull out the battery and boot up the phone, and it works well for the rest of the evening. in the night i went to sleep and put the (powered on) phone to my wall charger in my bedroom. when i wake up this morning the phone is showing me the charging animation when i press a button. so it was switched off again. so it looks that the phone is shutting down it self after some time of not being used. i go to bed around midnight and the titanium backup that runs every night at 2 a clock was successfully done, so it takes some time until the phone shuts down.

for now i flashed back to r4, because i don't know what i can do about this at all. i will now see if the device is working properly again with r4 over the day. if so maybe tomorrow i will flash r5 again to see if the problem comes back.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
For those with WiFi problems:

1. open your Rom zip on PC

2. delete zimage in the zip

3. extract Farnco zip until you get the zimage

4. drag and drop Franco zimage into Rom zip

5. put your Rom onto SD card

6. flash
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] thering1975:
I concur. Flashed back to 4 and less stutters on scrolling. However still the best there is 4 works like a dream for my setup. But each setups diff so could just be me
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] stekarson:
Franco, are you planning on adding support for other filesystems such as NTFS or EXT4? AFAIK it's a kernel feature, isn't it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] xuggs:
Same here.. wifi never really worked for me at all.

---------- Post added at 04:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:03 PM ----------

I am on SpeedMod but same issue as yours. Wifi is broken and can't seem to fix it. Also can't flash other kernels via Movile Odin. I am using PC odin for now. Switched back to SpeedMod and wifi works. Not sure where the problem is. I've done a wipe and flashed ROM again, no luck with Wifi.

i had speedmod but later flashed via cwm franco kernel and no problems, maybe try to do like this?

I've done that already via cwm, still doesnt work. Thank though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dereknas:
I think we all need to re-flash the ROM that we're on again to regain the wifi.

I'll try Chasmodo's suggestion and feedback once I get everything up again.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] HasC:
Possible wifi fix for those having issues, I have not tried it as I don't have problems with wifi. It's not my fix, Ncoder posted it on Chainfire's thread:

" Go to WiFi connections

Press your problematic connection until a menu pops up Choose Modify Network Config Click "Show advanced options" Change IP Settings to Static

Type your unique LAN IP address* Type your router Gateway ** Network prefix length: 24 DNS 1: 8.8.8.8 DNS 2: 4.4.4.4

(You need to enter these values even if they seem to be entered already)

* If you don't know what IP to use, you can access your wifi router webpage and chech the DHCP settings, somewhere there there is a list of the recent connections. If you can't find it, see below how to find a suitable IP.

** run CMD in your windows box, and when the console shows, type "IPCONFIG /ALL" You'll see there the Gateway used and the DNS server used by your service provider as well, although the DNS servers above are from google and very reliable. Your PC ip should be similar to your device, only the last digits will be different"

Hope it helps.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] EdgaBimbam:
hmmm strange, maybe those issues are related for specific roms/firmwares? for example, i'm using LPY stock firmware and no problems, everything works like it should be+ chuck norris performance :)

Hi specialists and gurus,

I think I got the same problem...

Coming from GB, I flashed Abyss4.2 and Rocket ICS v3 after. Now I cant flash anything (ROMs, Fixes ...) in recovery, except kernels. It seems like my /system is not writable anymore.

I have a Nandroid of my last GB-state, but is this command the best way to solve my problem?

And if yes, should I flash a specific kernel before doing this? I'm on Francos v5 at the moment.

Any help is much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] JuninhoCelular:
I was having problems with Kies air and your suggestion worked!! Hope it remains... Thanks!!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] HTF:
Just got a superbrick trying to install a rom from CWM when running this kernel (CM9, and no data wipe done).

It stopped part way through copying /system, I left it an hour then rebooted and now can't get in to recovery, boot or even in download mode. Just get a black screen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] EdgaBimbam:
emmm as i know franco kernel+ cm9 isnt friendly to each other

edit: oh i missread and didnt see that you was trying to flash rom, sorry
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] HasC:
Glad to hear it worked, keep others updated if it continues to work as not sure if this fix is only for static IP configurations. It might help all others that have issues when moving to this kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jurrea:
You can't flash CM9, from any ICS ROM, first downgrade to gingerbread, do all wipes and then you can instal CM9, that's the path, the brick is for your wrong steeps, no the Franco kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] ssss69:
So we have the confirmation that mmc_cap_erase is not the problem with the hardbricks...

Are you sure that you were in franko kernel r3 or more?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] dereknas:
Well, I just got my wifi back by reflashing TMT using R5 CWM (just clear cache and wipe dalvik).

Btw, does anyone know whether our note is running on a higher voltage when OC to 1.6Ghz with this kernel?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] EdgaBimbam:
he flashed cm9 from ics rom, as i know it is forbidden to flash from ics roms-cm9
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] ssss69:
No, it was forbidden to flash anything with original cfroots lpy and lpf.

Later one all the kernels were patched out and in theory the bug was solved ( it wasnt solved but it wasnt going to be triggered)

But no there seems that mmc_cap_erase is not the real problem..
