Just wanted to say great job on the kernel motley. Clemson extreme kernel made front page of alot of tech sites with breaking the 2ghz barrier. We know he uses your stable kernel and modifies it. So you deserve to be praised for it also.

I love how nexus 7 basically has all the best kernel developers developing for it. We still in the beginning and already made huge strides performance and battery wise. It'll only get better. Nexus 7 stays in the tech news now thanks to all you great developers. All of your work and others are appreciated. You all do this in your spare time and look how much greater you(all developers) made our devices.

We all appreciate the hard work all you developers put into making this a kicka$$ device and community ;)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bso44:
A big +1.

I wish we had some more kernel devs like you for the Sprint Galaxy S3. Great work!

Hi guys. Can anyone tell me if this kernel supports loopback devices? Having a heck of a time getting complete android installer and Android vnc viewer to connect to localhost to render ubuntu gui. maybe a script is neeed?

Thanks for any info.

Hey guys, my tablet shut down during the night when I left it charging and downloading stuff :( was the reboot caused by voltages being too low? Before you ask I haven't undervolted :S okay so here's where I was going to link my last_kmsg but apparently you can only link pictures on the xda app..?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] CharliesTheMan:
Has the stock stuff been removed from this kernel that causes it to turn off while charging overnight? I remember at launch there was a bunch of people asking about that but don't ever pay attention.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Dr.dre:
Can anybody tell me whats the min. voltage settings with this kernal on which the device is stable and doesn't reboot ?

Just wanted to thank you motley. Awesome kernel loved the nexus 7 before flashing this. But now your kernel has taken it to a whole new level

Thanks again

So what apps work for voltage control? I want to use setcpu's profiles, and would rather not have system tuner (powerful app, but what a freaking mess of an interface!) or TKT step on the settings. Does setcpu's voltage control work? Incredicontrol? And if they do not, why not?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] M3drvr:
Would be nice to have on the fly gpu clock changing. Like the CPU. If it's possible. And adjustable bus clocks. I know ezekeel always has this on the galaxy Nexus. It's pretty handy for fine tuning and truly testing your device. Dunno if it's possible to incorporate in the future or not.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] willis936:
Running your 1.1.1 1.5/520 with the zram/fsync script undervolted by 50 mv and forced GPU rendering. Aside from netting a high score in something that doesn't mean much it's incredibly smooth and incredibly stable. Never hits over 58C even after a half hour of THD gaming. No crashes, nothing. Also cooler than other kernels running similar mods so I'm assuming better battery life as well. Thanks a bunch motley, this is a good user.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] thcaddict:
So exactly which link is it for the newest version of this kernel? There are so many, lol. Also, is this kernel just install and go, or do I need to change a lot of settings to really get good results? I haven't ever installed custom kernels... only familiar with flashing ROMs and recoveries, but have heard really good things about this kernel and would like to try it out. If anyone could just give a little advice on how to get best performance is really appreciate it. ThAnks in advance
[Nexus 7 Original Development] demandarin:
The latest version is the 1.1.11 builds. It basically is flash and leave alone. that'll be best for new comers. then after researching more, u can get into tweaking it. which op details.

With kernels, you can dirty flash. no wipes needed.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] CharliesTheMan:
In case it helps, you'll probably want build numbers 218 and 219. The difference is the GPU maximum frequency, in one build its 484 MHz and in the other build its 520 MHz. I recommend starting with the 484 MHz (Build #219 version 1.1.1 ). You can always step up to the other one but you may find this to be a perfect fit for your needs.

Demandarin is spot on, Motley's kernels are good for running right out of the box. If you want to play with speed settings you can download the free CPU Master app by Antutu developers.

Kernels are really a lot of fun, don't let the minor details overwhelm you, start out running it as is or using CPU master and when you want to adjust settings only worry about minimum and maximum CPU speeds.

If you have any questions we will be glad to help you here in the thread or you can PM me.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] t_007_v2:
All you can really do is check to make sure the permissions are correct in the init, d folder. If the permissions are correct your stuck and will have to manually set them on every reboot. I'm using the glazed jelly bean rom 1.1.2 and thank the heavens init. d works.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] B-Man2005:
ok thanks .. i will try another rom

is there another rom that supports these tablet mode tweaks as paranoid does ?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] t_007_v2:
I tried quite a few roms and their interpretations of tablet ui. I came to the conclusion that adjusting the dpi in build.Prop does it best. On roms glazed jelly bean with spb shell 3d is very hard to beat in landscape or any mode that you use. Your tablet so it's your choice. the best part about android is that we have a choice.

Cheers

[Nexus 7 Original Development] danielsf:
Yes, it is very good. I am guessing you are on the 520mhz version to get that :) Hope that helps :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] willis936:
Had this problem. Started using script manager. In script manager open the files you want to run at boot as scripts then check off root and boot. Reboot and voila.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] brizey:
I prefer scriptmanager...it is much more "set and forget" if you use titanium. No need to rebuild everything if the install script wipes the system partition. init.d is more, elegant?, I guess, but it is a hassle if you are a crack flasher.

Coming from a thunderbolt that is hard pressed to be stable @ 245 MHz and still had phenomenal standby time I'm going to go out on a limb and say that even if you could set the N7 to 50 MHz on the idle core the instability it would introduce greatly outweighs the menial increase in what is already unbelievable idle time. I won't touch it all morning and in the afternoon I'll be staring at 99% with this kernel and a stock ROM.

Hi,

just flashed build 219 (GPU484) and i get some weird Quadrant scores:

Total 3855

CPU 11986

Mem: 2980

IO: 1198

2D: 278

3D: 2832

IO Seems to be especially low, any ideas?

In the 3D test i get constant framerates around 70FPS

Sysinfo does report 1.6GHz as max frequency, motley kernel is definitely running.

// Edit

Tried to reboot, stays the same.

Flashed the 520MHz GPU version, GPU score went up to 2962, IO still around 1200 :(
[Nexus 7 Original Development] DJLamontagneIII:
Because 52 is for the companion core... 102 or 100 is normal for the lowest setting
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Metallice:
No that's not why. 102, 204, and all the way up to 475mhz are also for the companion core. 52mhz just isn't part of the tegra dvfs. Also it seems to only run at that frequency (according to cpuspy) when the screen is off.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] DJLamontagneIII:
52 MHz is strictly for the companion core and you cant set that as your min for the main cores.. in your app lowest is 102
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Metallice:
You said you can't set it 52mhz BECAUSE it is for the companion core. I said that's not WHY. 52mhz, 102mhz, 304mhz, and 475mhz are all "strictly for the companion core" as well, and you can set them as the min frequency without issue. The main 4 cores only go down to 480mhz. The reason WHY you can't set the min frequency that low is because the companion core won't go that low when the screen is on.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] DJLamontagneIII:
I get it now found a good article on it http://findgadgetreview.blogspot.com/2012/04/nvidia-tegra-3-technology.html.. thanks
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Metallice:
Pretty good article. Worth a read for those who don't know much about the tegra 3. But then again, nothing beats cracking open the source and taking a good look around :)

The low power/frequency core system is interesting. On our T30L it goes up to 475mhz and switches to the 4 A9 cores at the same frequency (technically at 480 for the A9s I believe) and above. On the regular T30s it looks like it goes up to 500 or 513Mhz and switches over at 520Mhz and above.

I've been playing around with this switchover point myself and have successfully raised the top companion for frequency to 580mhz and the trade off point to the same level (Instead of 475Mhz). Battery life seems pretty good so far. 6.2 display hours with 14% left (Good for me)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] freezer2k:
Interesting,

think i also noticed a little lag while scrolling through PDFs,

I scrolled in the Play Score, Youtube like you did in your video and it seems to have this stutter as well.

Would need to go back to the stock kernel to check if it's gone, need CIFS support though, maybe someone else can confirm this?

Using the 520MHz GPU kernel at the moment.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] danielsf:
I also flashed the stock GPU clock speed version of this kernel and I have the same problem but it is defiantly less that at 484 and 520. One of the biggest differences in smoothness I am seeing is in the recent apps lists screen when on the home-screen, when scrolling through it on stock it is perfectly IOS like smooth, on this kernel even on the no GPU overclock build the recent apps list is really laggy when on scrolling through it when on your home screen.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] willis936:
I'm using the zram/fsync script that is going around with motley's 520. I bumped the zram to a gig and undervolted the cpu by 100mV across the board. I'm using interactive 100/1500 and deadline 1024. I've never felt anything so smooth on a touchscreen.

Oh yeah rom is stock deodexed zipalligned. I haven't felt any input lag whatsoever on this set up.

And one more potentially key thing I forgot to mention: force gpu rendering.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Jay Aristide:
Drop your zRam to 128MB (256 *tops*).. I was mistaken about how this works, zRam compresses physical RAM into a page file, so if you set it to 512MB, for example, you're effectively taking your device down to 512mb system RAM.. I don't recommend setting it any higher than 128MB, but some have said it's working great at 256
[Nexus 7 Original Development] modstorm:
Once you disable the script, does the page file get deleted or do I have to delete it manually ?

I can clearly see it on your video, and I did experience it myself. Just restored back to stock using the image from Google Servers and I'm still getting the lag, so now I'm confused...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] brizey:
Change the script and reboot.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Jay Aristide:
This.

It doesn't make a page file, it compresses a block of RAM :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Nizda1:
You'll get your ram allocated back once u change the script or delete and reboot. I haven't had the chance to look at the details of zram yet, some say it's basically a page/swap file or its a ram disk. If you were using 1gb it should of crashed, with no more ram left to run the OS. Anyway did u check your ram usage by chance? I'm curious, I'm a big fan of using a ramdisk been doing it for a year or so on my pc. Thats raw power, blows my ssd,s away in raid 0.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] t_007_v2:
Motley described it as only being useful if you have a bunch of apps running in the background or your recent list is 20 deep. ZRAM Sounds cool but I didn't see any improvement having it enabled.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] BillGoss:
Another option in PA (and probably CM10 ROMs, but I have not checked) is to set up your boot scripts in /data/local/userinit.sh or /data/local/userinit.d folder. Have a look at the 90userinit script in init.d

When you create the script make it rwxr-xr-x, ditto for the userinit.d folder.

Hey _motley! :)

I'm eagerly waiting for my 7 to be delivered to start the party :)

I see all the heavy State Of Art dev is happening here xD

I also see all the trick I implemented have found a way here, like fsync and all that xDDDD

Been busy developing some binaries for ARM so I can mod some stuff, mainly with memory, and I have one such binary that you can use to "push" out stale memory to Zram... pretty intelligent and tweakable :)

If you would see any use to it, just send me a DM and I'd be honored to give it to you to test/use in your kernels, if you want to.

My TF just flies like crazy, and my friends that see me work with it confuse it with a LAPTOP ( a friend gave me a usb memory and told me to install this MSI... dude... this is ANDROID xDDD)

Anyways, hope all is well, and hopefully I will be able to joing the 7 club ;)

Just one question ? If I flash this kernal will it automatically clean the previous kernal's modules and other remains ?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] willis936:
It's good practice to wipe dalvik cache before flashing a new kernel. There may be remaining settings in apps like system tuner, setcpu, etc. Depending on your ROM there may be system settings. Those usually get taken care of on first boot so I wouldn't worry about it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ChrisM001:
GPS works very bad with this kernel. Much more difficult to get a fix than with stock kernel.

Having this same issue, but no games. Using the CM10 build in my signature. Just switched to motley a few days ago. Was fine with stock kernel and CM10, now the sound quits randomly. I also get a weird popping/cracking sound coming out of the speaker shortly after wake, if there is some sound that is supposed to play (notification, etc).

It's really sporadic. Sound was out earlier, haven't restarted, sound now works. I've noticed it most prominently in the stock YouTube app, but that could be because that's one of the few apps I use regularly that has sound - mostly use the N7 for reading/browsing. No other mods, DPI changes, etc - CM10 and motley is all.

I am on stock ROM, motley kernel. I often lose my sound coming out of wake. The first sound I hear is a pop, then I don't have sound for a bit. It does the same thing on the Trinity kernel.

Do you have a magnetic cover, or does yours do it coming out of wake using the power button?

[Nexus 7 Original Development] phonic:
I don't think it matters. Whether I put it at 51 or 102, it still says 100 as 'min'. Not sure if this is a device/kernel/setcpu issue.

Does UV'ing work on no-frills?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Shano56:
Heh I guess you're right. The min goes to 100. Wonder if that's kernel issue or an app issue. I have never set a min freq so low
[Nexus 7 Original Development] phonic:
I don't think it really matters. Just like some people have said that the 'max freq' is being ignored (ie: always going to 1600 even if set to 1300 or 1500), the 'min freq' is as well. Mine is currently showing (via SetCPU) as 100/1500, but when looking at CPUSpy, I see that 1600 and 51 are both active and being used by the system. Plus 'deep sleep' for the majority of the time.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] brizey:
Might just be a bug in setcpu.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] giveen:
Had a brilliant thought about the 51mhz. Remember how we are Tegra 3? That a 4+1 chip. That 1 chip is a low power chip for low end tasks. Perhaps SetCpu has a small bug so doesn't know how to handle it?

Guys, I have to say...I tried to use SetCPU last night (instead of No-Frills and System Tuner) and things went absolutely haywire after enabling a couple profiles etc. One thing cool about No-Frills is that it has a setting for Jellybean that keeps the OS from holding the CPU down after screen off/screen on. I think simple is better right now until we can make sure the basics are all working. Device is new, OS is new, kernel is new, and the ROMs are new and different from each other. Too much complexity makes it hard to figure things out...

I was able to UV using System Tuner. I moved 1.6GHz down to low and it froze the tablet. Can't say it is working perfectly yet in the alpha version, but it definitely is doing something! Like someone else recommended, I wouldn't set UV settings to resume on boot until you are 100% its working for you.
