Just got a SOD myself. First in a long time. No kmsg since I had to hard reboot with the power button. Once it booted back up it was at 6% battery. Looks like it slept well for about 3 hours and then took a nosedive. So odd. I have wifi sleep policy set to off when in deep sleep, I'll try it the other way and see if it happens again.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] drose6102:
The other day I had a SOD and had to hard reboot. Not sure if I was on r30 or r31 but I am on r31 now. I had the wifi policy set to off in sleep as well. I have wifi always on now and no problems. Leaving wifi always on doesn't affect battery life much at all.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] _motley:
Others have reported that 10.1 works fine in my thread. I can't speak for franco, but it may be the same deal for his setup. Unless CM just changed something in the past day or so, it is likely just a ramdisk issue depending on the order you flashed things (ROM, then kernels etc.). If you dirty flash CM to get back to their default setup (ramdisk and binaries) and then flash an anykernel zip, it should work fine.

Sorry to the OP, not trying to go off topic, but trying to stop rumors in their tracks and a hopefully reinforce a commonplace solution.

Anyone had better battery life with r30 then r31?

I'm having issues with this kernel and EOS 4 nightlys. I can't install paid APS from the market, getting the can't access USB storage error. I switch back to stock kernel and the problem went away.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] SupWiz17:
That's some excellent deep sleep you have there. I have to get my n7 to sleep like that. With r31 the battery life is better but I'm still not getting deep sleep like that.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] opz187:
Doesn't work. Bootloopin

Got r31 to work on smooth ROM.. I backed up r31.. Tried metallices kernel, then went back to cm10.1 kernel. Restored r31 and no boot loops. Smoothrom is cm10.1 pretty sure
[Nexus 7 Original Development] irminsul:
I don't know if Franco changed the code of _thalamus' hotplug driver, but it caused many SOD's on morfics kernel. I used to run only _thalamus kernels and a n7 test build gave me many sod, with the WiFi policy off setting.

I will test further today and leave my 7 with WiFi auto off and see how it runs.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Homurato:
Hello Franco and thanks for the excellent kernel!

i just got a question, i'm getting too low scores in 2D (255 2D quadrant and 2750 3D)

and i think that's making Horn a little bit jerky (looks like running about 25 fps +/-)

it should run at full speed i think as it is optimized for tegra 3, is there something i can do about ?

(i'm Running the latest paranoid android and your r31 kernel)

thanks in advance.

Yup. That's what I saw when I booted back up after that SOD. Seemed like 3 hours and then it just dropped like a stone/landslide. 6% left when I caught the SOD and hard rebooted. Something funky going on. Battery life isn't as good with wifi always on, but I haven't seen that again yet.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] opz187:
R25 is for 4.1.2. That's why it didn't work. The paid app will work, free one hasn't been updated yet

[Nexus 7 Original Development] FReaKRaNT:
In my opinion it was very irresponsible to update the paid app and leave the free one with no explaination to the fact that it doesn't support 4.2.1.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] praed0r:
I'm running Smoothrom 4.2 with CM 10.1 kernel (3.1.10-gb61adb8)

I've tried using the paid for francoupdater app to install R31 - it installs OK and reboots then constantly loops between "NFC not started" and some other error which I can't catch. (everything is running on the screen - HDwidgets for eg.)

The only way out is to hard reset into recovery and re-install the cm kernel.

I also tried the fastboot method described earlier in the post - same result on reboot.

Is there anything else I can do to get this kernel working as I was very happy with R25 on 4.1.2 and I've noticed that charging takes a long time on the CM kernel.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] praed0r:
Yeah - as soon as I read his post I jumped in and tried the update, never thought of looking a page or two later to see if he retracted his original statement.

Suppose I'll go back to 4.1.2 for now till R32 (hopefully) is released with cm support.

If you have StickMount installed, it's in /sdcard/usbStorage.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ArRaY92:
For the hello of it I cant reach lower than 400Mhz, tried all fixes described in this thread. None is working. Reverting back to stock. Shame, because I also bought your App. :( Also, If you could please start making undervolting available for nex4, then perhaps I could get some use from your app :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] drose6102:
Running R31 and mine doesn't go lower than 400Mhz but that is expected. The 7 has stability issues lower than that clock speed.

There is no need to under volt, the battery savings are extremely minimal, if at all. I think under volting is a placebo effect on battery life. If anything it causes more instability and can make the cores to run hotter.

I trust Franco's decisions on the custom parameters he includes in his app, he has been doing this for quite some time and is good at what he does.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bonzer2u:
+1, but it wudda been nice if he mentioned that and ondemand cpu gov locked out .......DOH

Currently runnin motley's 246 cuz I'm runnin multirom v3, hopefully franco gets the kexec patch in R32????
[Nexus 7 Original Development] irminsul:
Franco implemented the hotplug driver from _thalamus. That driver replaces nvidea's driver and doesn't use the companion core, so you won't see frequencies below 500 MHz.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Hemidroids:
Wut?

Are you missing fingers? Cant type anymore? Fastboot is faster than a flashable zip.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ÜBER™:
Not when updating ROMs its not. The time it takes you type the command line I've already flashed the zip. :rolleyes:. But that's besides the point you can always just use his app... If you've bought the paid one.

Small world Osmosis...

My Linksys WRT300N finally died and I was looking up commands to see if I could unbrick it since I'm using DD-WRT on it, and look who I find...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Haha yup. I made a pretty epic WRT160Nv3 thread reboot there too way back. Still using my WRT300Nv1 though. Got the latest BS build on it and everything. ;)

I'm also on a couple other slowly dying forums: Winamp and uTorrent. Pretty much anywhere I could get involved with testing and help drive development for the things I use. :good:

Off topic obviously but for your router I'll just say, it depends how "bricked" it is, but your best hope is to buy or build yourself a JTAG cable.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Krunk_Kracker:
That's the exact router I have, love it. I got it back up... Not sure what I did though. It was unpingable and not broadcasting the SSID. I finally rebooted it and held the wifi-lock button for about 10 seconds and it started broadcasting again. Odd... Because I don't recall programming that button.

I was getting ready to make a jtag cable too, lol.

I still have a feeling it's on its way out, which will make me a sad panda... I love this router.

It'd be great to to have a toggle in the voltage section that would add/reduce All by 25 at a time.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Too dangerous. Voltages randomly differ on how much UVing they can take so it's just not a good idea to do anything "across-the-board".
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jewnersey:
Oh hmm. On my incredible 2 it is in a option and I have never really had problems until I'm dropping it by to 75 - 100. Thanks for the knowledge though
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Yeah, 25 wouldn't be a problem, but what I mean is some frequencies could probably handle 75, others 50, others 100, etc. And this differs on a per-device basis as well. So it's just better (and safer!) if people have to do each one at a time. Encourages proper UV practices too. :)

[Nexus 7 Original Development] Jeffro1010:
I had the same issue with build 2 and 3 of Nitro's Eclipse ROM. Really like to run Franco on my Gnex and N7, but without the update to this, I am stuck with either staying on build one of Eclipse, which is not bad, just doesn't offer the new options of customization, or roll with his packaged Luna kernel. Neither of these is a bad option, just not my preferred. Not complaining or asking for an ETA, just reporting additional ROMs that are updating and making r31 incompatible. Now back to lurking and crossing my fingers that Franco works his magic, at his leisure, to make this FANTASTIC Kernel work with the ROM I'm currently on... Thank you for the Kernel Franco! And thank you Osmosis for the always informative posts!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
There was a massive "discussion" (see: argument ;)) between the 3rd party kernel devs and CM on RootzWiki. I won't link to it but it's not too hard to find. Basically CM feels the need to reimplement things their own way and break compatibility whenever because they do what they want.

Little update from before. I posted my working solution for relocking and unlocking the bootloader (with no data loss) in the form of a flashable zip how-to:

Are you saying I could theoretically use brainmasters boot.img flasher to flash r31 and get init.d? If so, it says I must reflash the kernel after using bmflasher.. BTW I'm on sgt7 (cm10.1), and the only way to get r31 to work on it is if I restore a backup. But I guess I could make a backup on another ROM using the bootimg.flasher and restore it on sgt7
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
No. I'm saying it creates the directory. If the ramdisk/ROM doesn't have the runparts built into it then of course it still won't work; it'll just be there. ;)

Interesting about your method to "get it to work" - you're basically slapping f.K over CM's ramdisk. Probably will break some stuff in f.Ku that way. :p

r32 still doesn't use the LP core, meaning that it still won't go below 400mhz.. :(

---------- Post added at 04:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:54 PM ----------

that's because it's based on cm10.1 which uses a different ramdisk
[Nexus 7 Original Development] franciscofranco:
r32:

* Merge all latest Google patches for Interactive governor

* Merge the changes of the Hotplug driver from my Mako's Kernel

* Exported a function to the touch driver to force the device to use 2 cores when the user is interacting with the screen to maximize smoothness

* Ramdisk updated to work on CM based roms

* Also added .zip - link in the OP

Same battery usaged on my N7. The companion core thing is more of a marketing technique than anything else. The cost of changing between low power cluster and normal cluster (yes its a heavy task for the system) doesn't happen in this setup so you'll be saving battery from not having the system to do that context change.

If I made a dummy frequency called 50MHz but still using 400MHz users would come back and say WONDERFUL BATTERY LIFE, yet they wouldn't even know they were using 400MHz as minimum. You're just worried because you see a 400 and not a 100. Less worry = more enjoyment.
