Well that's quite an unsubstantiated leap you make there. Yeah.. "all kinds of apps"... You know... just like how going bald at 50 means you must have been poisoned and all your hair is going to fall out and you are going to die.

Also I'm not sure you understand the meaning of the word serious. I'm not sure I'd call breaking support for an unsupported app "serious". Probably some graphics optimization in Mkernel or something. If I figure it out ill let everyone know so they can avoid the issue.

But this "serious" life or death bug doesn't top my priority list.

Running last version of PA with this kernel and Jay's Recipe for Buttery Goodness, the tablet goes really smooth! Thanks a lot!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] 32BitWhore:
Tablet runs great on 244 with the latest Eos nightly, but I have a slight issue with the battery reading. Battery life overall is great as I've come to expect from Motley but whenever I get down to 20%, the battery seems to drop from 20% to 5% to dead almost immediately (within a few minutes). Could this be a ROM issue or a hardware issue? I'm assuming it's not the kernel as I haven't seen anyone else mention it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Sveke:
Charge it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Lazy Rich:
I'm getting absolutely brilliant battery life. Screenshots below, usage and Standby...the best I've ever seen on a custom kernel. And it is so damn smooth overall. Great work Motley!

Interesting debate and I feel I started some of it when pointing out what kernels have trouble with flash and those that dont. I realize this is pretty much a closed issue. For me it all comes down to this. While flash is no longer supported by android, some still use it because sites still use it. And the great thing about devices such as N7 is that it can be made to work. So some of us make it work.

I know nothing about kernel builds but i love the openess you devs bring. Awsome. Users should understand these builds are alpha, beta, or even WIP on stable builds. Things will work in many and things may not sometimes. So - report bugs found in usage and leave it at that. At the end of the day use what works for you and there should'nt be any bashing. I think anyone who bashes should learn to do for themselves.

Sadly in my case while I really like M-kernel and the above all awesome tweaking it has with a lot of time spent on breaking it down to what a user can easily understand, I end up not using it because in my case I use flash and it doesn't work. But that is me, doesn't have to be everyone and I still have high regard for both of these kernels and their devs.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] Metallice:
Of course. Don't use mkernel or Trinity or Franco of you need flash. You won't hurt my feelings (okay maybe a little :)). But saying that broken flash means that these kernels have a serious bug the affects all apps and stability is just dumb.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] snarlytaz:
That I agree with. And I do often keep checking out your kernel because you have done awesome things with it. All are different and I truly believe all are aimed at specific strengths. :). Just saying bashers should be considerate. You have set some high bars on yours to reach.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Theshawty:
Does this kernel have some sort of control app or could I use faux123's kernel app to adjust basic settings?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] CharliesTheMan:
I use android tuner, which replaced system tuner and combined the features of several apps. Their is a free version

There was a special if you owned system tuner pro where they refunded the whole purchase, not sure if it's still going on.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] Adinaky:
Great kernel, but my only problem is my Quadrant score. I get a value around 4050, not 5000 and something. I am using it with the latest version of SmoothROM. Any suggestions?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Metallice:
Just one - Stop using quadrant.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Adinaky:
Well, I don't use it anymore. I realised the score doesn't matter. As long as your device is running smooth and fast, you don't really care about it, you care about performance, right?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] durangatang:
What are default values for the kernel for memory allocation? I changed them in system tuner and do not know how to get back to kernel default.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] RootTheMachine:
Check for default under presets? Just a logical guess.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] durangatang:
Nope. Looked all around the app couldn't find anything for default, hence why I am in the thread asking haha. Guess I'll have to reinstall the kernel.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Short Viking:
Untick "apply at boot" perhaps? :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] tobitronics:
Getting a lot of random stutter, mainly in launcher, in switching apps and in launching them for the first time. It is very random and sometimes it happens sometimes it doesnt. Also having this issue on my Gnex. Is this android related? Both devices are stock 4.2.1...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] eoy4:
I just installed this in my nexus 7 (wifi, 32gb, stock 4.2.1). I'm also seeing a little suttering in the launcher when returning from an app that has been open for a while. Also, I notice that my tablet charges a little slower now than with stock kernel.... or is it just me?

I have installed android tuner, and applied all of the "one-click" tweaks to System Manager, and OC'd to 1.6ghz (and set to apply on boot).

Any advise on how to make the stuttering go away is so very welcome. Also, if anyone else has the slow charging issue, please let me know it it's kernel-related or not... Cheers!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] benbailey84:
Slow charging here too. But that's with any oc'd kernel from what I have experienced.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] PhantomApollyon:
I can't comment on stock software but I'm not seeing any of this on CM 10.1 Official w/ this kernel. Everything runs super smooth on that setup.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] phonic:
IMHO, the biggest issue is that it's very easy to make little system tweaks to boost your quadrant score without actually improving overall system performance. Which means that it gives people false expectations.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] mu3g:
GPU Overclock

What app can I use to tweak the GPU settings on this kernel? I use SetCPU for my frequency overclock, governors and voltage control. However, I don't have the option to tweak the GPU settings. I would like to know the app I can use to do this.

Thanks!!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Lazy Rich:
Simple answer: You can't modify the GPU speed with this kernel.

How to control your GPU overclock?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] denzel09:
not possible
[Nexus 7 Original Development] eoy4:
The OP says one of the features is "GPU OC from 416 to 520MHz (416 is stock and 484 is recommended)". What does this mean? Does it mean it's already OC'd, or that you can somehow do it? I think this is the source for all the "how do you OC the GPU?" posts. It would be nice if the OP clarified this point a bit further ;)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bonzer2u:
I believe if you follow up on the change logs, motley locks the GPU to 446 to prevent possible overheating and not adjustable
[Nexus 7 Original Development] eoy4:
I see, thanks! Still, if the OP says "GPU OC", i believe people will continue asking. I apologize for not doing a little more reading, though. I love this kernel, btw!

It seems that trickster mod doesn't work ok with cm10.1 + motley kernel. Now using system tuner.

What's the difference between this Kernel and the M-Kernel???
[Nexus 7 Original Development] adame09:
M-kernel is based off this ones its just a kanged kernel getting lil pieces from different sources this one is more original
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Metallice:
Not really. They are entirely different kernels in almost every way at this point.

Also I'm rather insulted at your dismissal. Mkernel isn't original? That's an insult to all the firsts in my kernel.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] t_007_v2:
Both Motley and Metallice have exceptional kernels that bring out the fully potential of the N7. I have major respect for both and so should all N7 owners.

I've tried most kernels on my smoothrom install. I find Motleys kernel to offer the best experience in terms of speed, stability and fluidity
[Nexus 7 Original Development] TDO:
The biggest differences are:

This kernel has working flash and the M-Kernel not.

With the M-kernel you can also overclock eyour GPU
[Nexus 7 Original Development] xateeq:
I have only one question.

Does this kernel have LP core disabled ?

(in franco.Kerne it is)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] icytrey:
Flash works fine for me with m-kernel:cool:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Lazy Rich:
Standby with this kernel is absolutely crazy. No drain, absolutely nothing. Got WiFi on all the time, 3 gmail accounts...but no drain.

Plus this kernel is supersmooth and buttery, even with stock CPU speed.

Just WOW, best experience with a kernel in 4 years of using android.

Awesome kernel indeed. Attached screen shots.

1. I would rate moderate usage, web browsing, some gaming (3D and Ingress which uses Wifi and GPS increasing power usage imo).

2. First fully charged with MoDaCo Jr13 ROM, flashed Motley build #244.

3. System Tuner, 1.3Ghz, GPU should be @ 446Mhz, Interactive Gov

This was the first full charge. Kernel should be settled in now and I am excited to see what my next full charge brings.

Guys, you should give this Vanir build a try :

http://droid-hive.com/index.php?/topic/536-rom-vanir-v40-rc2-16/

[Nexus 7 Original Development] TheDarkDefender:
Does overclocking affect the life of the n7 ? Or does it affect the n7 in any way ?

Anyone, please?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] gsw5700:
It will make it run hotter and 'could' shorten the life of your n7 depending on how much you oc it and how much time it spends on the higher frequencies. Hard to give any figures as each soc is slightly different. Some people oc and don't have any problems.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] TheDarkDefender:
Thanks. I ve covered it with a jelly case. Do you think it might block the ventilation , thereby making it 'hot' ?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] thracemerin:
I didn't run a lot of the Linaro optimized flags yet, but I can confirm that in it's current state running -O3 the kernel won't boot. I know getting the GNex to boot with -O3 flagged was a big contributor to the performance increases Linaro was claiming for that device.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] brizey:
it is in/dev/block
[Nexus 7 Original Development] foxorroxors:
lol 170k+ right mark, stock gets 120k ahaha sweet =) BTW flashed using that aio tool in the dev section, onto stock 4.1.1 (rooted ofc) used the aio to temp boot into cwm and flashed using that. worked first time no prob. Nice kernel. just need those GPU MHz higher (stable too) and we'll be laughing wooop =)

Had to switch back to the Atlantis kernel for the time being. My tab would constantly hit 1.6ghz even I had it set to 1.4 and it was getting hot! Will try again in the next version. Thanks for the work!

Way to go motley! Especially pleased with the use of linaro :). I will flash right now (even though it's almost midnight here :D), and tell you how things go.

Well, it booted, and everyrhing is now humming along stably at 1.6 ghz. Awesome work!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] _motley:
Cool, thanks for being the first! Were you one of the ones that was truncated at 1.3GHz?

Linaro is awesome, I am very impressed so far.

The panel clock tweak really boosts the frame rate on benchmarks.

Best so far:

Quadrant 5055

Antutu 12749

Nenamark2 59.6

The Dynamic EDP is holding it back somewhat during benchmarks since it throttles back at 60C, but this is great for an everyday device I think.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] thracemerin:
Nicely done, I was going to release something with Linaro, but splitting a bunch of people between a bunch of very similar kernels seemed somewhat pointless, so I figured helping you out would be more useful :)

Edit: I'm trying to sort out what's not booting with -O3, problem is it doesn't even seem to get far enough to give me anything useful during the boot sequence, it just loads the Google screen then dies.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] _motley:
Interesting...I didn't need the fixes you posted at all. They may have fixed it in the version I am using on Linux. Very nice toolchain indeed.

What CPU tool are you using? Let me know if the new kernel is better. Should run a bit cooler now.

See the OP here. I have a script posted there for the prime that should work using script manager

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1532849

Haha, yeah, I will try to raise the CPU a bit next and watch some Netflix movies and play some games to see how it goes.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] thracemerin:
Turns out, I was using a June linaro nightly and when i reverted the change and updated the toolchain it still works, so you're right about that.

I guess to sort the -O3 issues out, you'd have to get the list of the new flags that are added and try compiling with one, if it boots, add another, etc... until it stops booting. That sounds like a lot of fun!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] _motley:
Thanks, just crossed posts and didn't see yours yet. I haven't tried -03 yet, but it is interesting that I didn't need the patch you used. Are you using Linux?

I love to see others compiling and contributing. I am always open to ideas, whats next?Haha! I'm sure there are still some gremlins to chase and some mainstream patches to merge, but it seems like we have a good base here I think. I hope the guys that couldn't OC are set now. Hope someone will report back soon.

Gotta go to bed soon, but its just too much fun...

Yeah, sounds right to me. Weird thing on this tab is that my recovery gets blown out when I have a bootloop sometimes. Very strange.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ice0901:
Running update #38 I'm still getting 1600 even though I set it to 1500.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] thracemerin:
I might go for something without OC, GPU OC, etc... go for a more optimized stock, we'll see how much more power I can squeeze out of this thing without doing that, if it seems worthwhile over stock, I might post something.

Edit: The real fun would be to try and go up mainline branches to 3.4 or 3.5, you'd get a lot of performance benefits but what a gigantic mess that is likely to be.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] phonic:
Thanks motley! Will be flashing this tonight.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] Metallice:
If you're not getting a DIV mismatch error you're not using the Linaro toolchain or something's wrong. ehh. w/e.

Also DON'T use -O3 for the kernel. It just makes the kernel bloated and slower. I picked a few out that didn't have a negative effect when I compiled. There are more to try, but what I've tried and has worked so far is in my github.
