Are you guys using 3G tilipas or something?!

I usually get 6-7 hours screen on AT LEAST with the stock cm kernel and about 7 and a half with m-kernel.

5 hours screen on is quite a way below what it should be for a WiFi only nexus 7
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ÜBER™:
Well gaming i get around 5.5 hours... which is reasonable since gaming is using more of the CPU/GPU. However normal usage no gaming (which is rare since thats all i really do on it other than watch videos) id say around 6.5 Hours. The only time ive ever gotten 7 hours was with streaming a movie, or just staring at a screen for a long period of time.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] GedBlake:
Are we talking about UNTIL THE BATTERY GOES DEAD?

If that were the case, I could probably get around 9, and maybe, very tentatively, possibly 10 hours.

But I understand that pushing the BATTERY TO EXHAUSTION is generally not considered to be a good idea.

It damages the battery, and has the potential to semi-hard brick the tablet.

Personally, I won't allow it to run lower than around 20%... which gives me 6 to 7 hours hours ON SCREEN TIME.

The most I've claimed is 7hours and 34minutes.

Typically, with reboots, this gets reduced to around to between 5 and 6 hours.

Rgrds,

Ged.

No, WiFi only.

I use mine mostly for gaming so I don't reach anywhere near what you say.

once again, the screen on time is insanely long, other than that, it still have the random heat up issue since r48, gonna have to flash r47 again for me x_x
[Nexus 7 Original Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Those facing this lag can you please go to Franco app and in the hot plug control set high load threshold to 85. Iv just played (and won) two races in a row on asphalt 7 which was quite laggy before and it didn't lag at all using 85 high load performance. This value matches the target load in governor control and also makes it easier for all 4 cores to activate.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] harmohn:
YouTube stuttering dissipated on reducing go_high-speed_load from 95 to 90 under governor control; obvious I know :p
[Nexus 7 Original Development] viper08:
Firstly excellent kernel.......great work.........I did experience lock screen reboots on R55 was working OK with R48.......using vertigo rom.... Since the reboots i have clean flashed and used R48 and all is OK.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bagl0312:
Thanks, this seems to improve a lot :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bagl0312:
After several tries I found that the following settings fix the lags with youtube and videos with R56

I am on stock 4.2.2 ROM

Governor = INTERACTIVE

HotPlug_Control -> High Load Threshold = 80

Governor Control -> go_hispeed_load = 90

Governor Control -> target_loads = 80

I have still to verify that battery life is not too much affected
[Nexus 7 Original Development] neo-X:
Thanks, this fix my lag on videos.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Anon1992:
Thank you but it doesn't seem to fix mine. Running on stock no UV.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] GedBlake:
Yep. Agreed.. these settings make things better... but not perfect.

Leaving aside streaming video and games (still redolent of lag and 'stutter') , the r50's don't have 'that certain slippery, slidey, almost oily, lubricated feeling' that r47/r48 has...

...which makes the tablet such a delight to use.

Rgrds,

Ged.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bagl0312:
Yes, I confirm. My settings work most of the time, but in some cases youtube videos still lag. I hope a new better release of the kernel will be released soon ;)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Interesting so we've just about found our way back to the old winning defaults as a workaround again. :p

I'm sure this will bring out the battery complainers again too. ;)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] sjknight413:
See this is more like it!

Just for reference the best battery life I got on r56 was being on 80% after an hour and five minutes.

I'm back on the stock cm kernel which definitely feels a bit faster and smoother and after an hour of playing a super Nintendo emulator, some modern combat 4 and a lot of web browsing I am on 91% :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] randomcore:
sound engine

@franco: Does this kernel support any sound engine, eg. Boeffla Sound? TIA
[Nexus 7 Original Development] androidkid311:
Sorry where can i get the cm kernel in a flashable zip?? Want to try it out
[Nexus 7 Original Development] sjknight413:
My intention with this definitely wasn't to advertise other kernels on Franco's thread. His kernel is absolutely brilliant for all but the minor few! I was just adding to my earlier observation that my battery life wasn't good.

You would have to flash/reflash cm to get it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] androidkid311:
I respect and know that. Just wanted to try cm kernel. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] djdunn:
Ive noticed with latest kernel that while playing ff7 on fpse, that ocasionally fpse will drop down to like 3 fps and be more or less locked up for a 2-5 min watching with the cpu overlay i see 4 cores online 1 running at 100% at 1.3 ghz the other 3 are at 1.3ghz but only 1-8% load. While doing this 3 cores constantly hotpluging on and off while staying at max frequency every few seconds ~5ish . including the one running at 100% load. As soon as it becomes responsive 3 cores hotplug off and the 4th drops down to 750mhz
[Nexus 7 Original Development] TheByteSmasher:
OK.. I never got a freeze with r56, but I can't seem to watch movies on the latest kernels... mp4, AVI, All the videos I try to watch stutter... Well a better description would be the video stutters, the sound continues or the video & audio stutters or stops until I touch the screen or pause and play again... then it continues (the audio at least) until the video catches up... a short while later, it happens again. I switch to leankernel and the issues go away, same video, switch back to Franco and the video stutters again. It happens at different points in the videos (multiple videos) what stutters one time, won't if I rewind but it'll stutter again.. The player is irrelevant too as is the method of decoding. Anyone with any insight, please let me know... Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] poondog:
Did you try the other hot plug values posted in the previous page?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ÜBER™:
I wouldnt waste your time guys.. hes already fixed the hotplug code in the mako, just gotta be patient and wait for him to get r57 with the new hotplug fixes. Its freaking amazing on the N4 and im sure it will get rid of all these freezing and laggy crap that we're dealing with now.

Oh and proof...

[Nexus 7 Original Development] lastot069:
Does this mean I will have OTG again in r57? Or is hotplug something completely different? I really would like to upgrade from r48
[Nexus 7 Original Development] sgt. meow:
Hotplug is related to the switching on/off of cores. Nothing to do with OTG IIRC.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] poondog:
You are basically dangling steak in front of a starving lion.

I actually thought that this never had the auto mount USB OTG like some other kernels. I always used stick mount and mount it using the button :D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] NinetoFive:
Judging from the recent posts, it may be moot if it's going to be fixed soon anyways, but since I'm here:

I've only noticed freezing when I'm in landscape mode. Odd. I'd play an AVI video and it'll jerk and frameskip within seconds but once it goes back to portrait mode, it plays smoothly again.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] poondog:
Did you leave it for a while in portrait? I find that if you leave it for a while, the framerate drops. If you're constantly touching the screen or making it do something, then its smooth because the processor goes up
[Nexus 7 Original Development] fozzie:
I've never had a problem with OTG, but then I've always used Stickmount.

Have you tried it?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Just to repost something Osmosis said on the galaxy nexus thread, can you guys check your governor control values match this and also I would suggest dropping high load threshold (hot plug) to 80.
