Our definitions of EXACTLY must differ. Mine had nothing to do with a screen off situation.

I've gone back to r9. I updated to r13 and had 'pausing' while watching 'This Week In Tech HD' via Beyond Pod Tablet. The video would pause and play, pause and play. I went back to a backup of r9 and the pausing disappeared. RasBean Jelly 9/22 Build.

I have been using Franco's paid app, but if your a little tight on money I would recommend System Tuner and throw -50mV at them all. Some do -100, my tablet can't handle that sadly.

I am too lazy at the moment to find out which frequency's want more power, that is my main reason for just going -50 on all. I lower them by -25 until I get a freeze surfing chrome/antutu. Then raise it by 50 and call that safe.

Hoping to get some GPU mV control in his app. And be able to change scheduler would be nice too.

Oh and never had any SODs. On any Kernel. Latest AOKP nightlies.

That wasn't a kernel crash, probably your rom messing things up.

I also thank you to built in the nfs support, I hardly wait for it. Yesterday I bought the updater app. I am very happy with this kernel, I do not want to move anywhere :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jazzespresso:
I see that both The Gingerbread Man and osm0sis had fun pulling my old posting and making fun of it, and me. I am glad you guys had blast.

Funniest of all (also sad) that even some people thanked you for that, good that you guys got some extra thank you points too.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] frost_nz:
To be completely honest, I don't think people come to XDA to make fun of others. XDA is all about sharing and people coming together with similar interests. I can't speak for everyone, but I'm 99.9% sure that most people wouldn't have meant their posts or their "thanks" maliciously. But people like to take credit, and deserve it, when they share something good. It's great that you want to share it, just credit the person who originally posted it.

As osm0sis said in one of his posts

I don't believe any of it was meant harmfully.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Dubbsy:
The Linux world devs generally get paid in thanks more than money. I've always viewed it as a community because people do it solely for the recognition and being able to share what they've found or created. Like being proud of what you've done because people enjoy it

That's why people generally get pretty angry when things are kanged without giving credit where credit is due. Sharing is encouraged, just with credit.

Just went from r61 back to r47 and there is a massive difference in smoothness, how's the battery life with r47 and is there a better version than r47 in terms of smoothness?

(I'm not saying that r61 is bad because it's not, I was just looking at the older kernels and I saw that r47 was a popular one)

[Nexus 7 Original Development] bjcrj:
R47 got good battery results in that kernal testing/comparison thread
[Nexus 7 Original Development] MarcAntonyy:
Quick question - what features (ie. USB OTG, NFS, etc), if any, would someone lose by running r47 instead of r61?

If there isn't a difference in feature set, I'd like to spend some time running trials of the two on my tablet to see which best compliments my device.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bjcrj:
Osmosis would know more than i do, but i dont think features change aside for hotplug and tuneables

Where do I send these logs?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] GedBlake:
Agree with the general sentiments of this... there's not a lot between r47 and r48 (other than some minor delay on lock screen wakeup)... but a there's a huge gaping chasm (in terms of smoothness and lagfree behaviour) between r47/48 and the r50's... and now r61.

I'm no expert in kernels, and I intend this as no criticism... just an observation as I see it - but somewhere along the line, since r47/r48, this kernel.. well, 'it got broke'... and has never worked properly on my N7 since.

So I'm back on r48... which is a delight to use.

Rgrds,

Ged.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Gspin96:
Remember that problem with frequencies not sticking? Today I decided to try Motley.I had already tried it, but i didn't remember if this problem was present. Well, it isn't there: the frequencies are perfectly sticking. Looking at the package, it includes a power.grouper.so. If I put this same library while using franco.kernel, the frequencies seem to be sticking. At first it seemed to still be able to reach 1300MHz while max frequency was 1000, but turning the screen off-on seemed to solve that.

Maybe I discovered the hot water, since power.grouper.so modifications had been already discussed, but i feel like posting this ;)

Oh, and about voltage control: it's also broken in Motley kernel.

I sure hope so - I have it installed and running on mine. :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] DubleJayJ:
All right, getting my Nexus 7 on Tuesday(yay :D) and I already picked out a good ROM, gonna be using XenonHD. And I was looking for a good kernel with good performance and also great battery life, and I stumbled across this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1889571 - And I've chosen this kernel. So far, some people are saying that r48 or r47 is better than the current build, for performance reasons. Compared to r61, how less smooth is it and how is the battery life? Worse or better?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] frost_nz:
Best to try them out for yourself and decide.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Joel Chan:
My device freezes whenever I'm torrenting. I'm on the latest kernel. Anyone else?

I've heard if similar issues, I think changing to a different I/O scheduler can fix it.

Imho r61 is faster than r47 with just as good battery life IF you apply the governor/hotplug tweaks previously discussed here. Without them, r47 is definitely the much better choice.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] DubleJayJ:
Mind telling me what page or what tweaks those were?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bjcrj:
Here they are, make sure to thank the gingerbread man
[Nexus 7 Original Development] combatdeity:
I've found even with the tweaks, r61 is not as smooth as r47.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
I found these settings to be extremely smooth and great for battery life, if you notice that it's bit smooth just bump the high load freq. up to 1000MHz

Spoiler content hidden.

N7/N4 - CM10.1 Nightly, Franco Kernel
[Nexus 7 Original Development] konradsa:
Really? I thought it's slightly better in r61 with tweaks, but hard to say, since I can't compare side-by-side. Bur r61 by itself is definitely a huge step backwards.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
I was thinking... With target_loads at the same number as the high load threshold we're basically telling it to try to ramp to 80 and then when it gets there it onlines all 4 cores, then the loads drop and then it probably goes below 50 and offlines all but 1 core. Rinse, repeat. ;)

So what if we do 95/20/50 for hotplug, and 15000/90/1000MHz/1/30000/30000/80/80000/80000

I'm seeing dramatic improvement in the UI and task switching.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
I've got the same settings except for min sample time at 45000 and that is still smooth with no YouTube problems :)

N4/N7 - CM 10.1 Nightly, Franco Kernel
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Nice! Were you one of the guys who could still reproduce the YouTube problems after Franco upped the min to 204?

Yes but it's gone away since I've messed with the settings :)

N4/N7 - CM 10.1 Nightly, Franco Kernel
[Nexus 7 Original Development] sotoskawasaki:
Improvement is always good. how about battery life with these settings? I am switching to these settings myself right now, but I am not using the tablet a lot to get a feel on the battery life.

Edit: I dont know if it is a placebo but it actually seems a bit smoother and faster. I hope battery life is as good, or better. Was using the winning tunables.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Dubbsy:
I was running these settings except I had my high frequency at 1300 because I don't care about battery. No complaints on smoothness like that.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] xFuGiToiDx:
I have better battery life with r47 than r61
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
That's because it's always got 2 cores online, it's better for battery to have 2 cores on all the time than to have them turning on and off all the time :)

N4/N7 - CM 10.1 Nightly, Franco Kernel
[Nexus 7 Original Development] konradsa:
Wow, these settings are even smoother. The N7 now reminds me more off my iPad. If the battery impact is not too bad, the settings are definitely a winner.

Does anybody know where one can find explanation of the governor and hotplug settings?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
Not sure in exactly where you can find an explanation but there is probably a thread on xda somewhere try searching the forum :)

I'll try to find a link for you

EDIT: Sorry I haven't been able to find a thread, it's probably because I'm using the app and not the website

You could probably just Google the governor settings to find a detailed description for what it does.

http://layer8problem.wordpress.com/2012/10/01/interactive-governor-settings/
[Nexus 7 Original Development] konradsa:
Thanks, so isn't go_highspeed_load at 90 too high? Looks like you should set it lower for a smoother experience, not higher, right?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Haha go for it buddy. ;)

I think we've pretty much got it now. Maybe mid thresh back to 25, mst back to 45000. And maybe hf at 760MHz like you suggest. Hopefully [MENTION=4953615]nexusmaniac[/MENTION] can try all that and let us know? Should be a little more conservative on battery and hopefully still be smooth with no YouTube or video playback issues.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] The Gingerbread Man:
What I'm trying to work in theory is how is battery going to be affected but i guess thinking about it could be better to keep high load threshold higher than target load to stop cores going on / off all the time but at the same time is it better to keep the system running at as few cores as possible to be better on battery? I'm not sure that input boost at 1 actually does anything so I'm not to sure on that one. Also having medium threshold at 20 and min sample at 30 I think is what mostly stopped the YouTube issue (although I see your logic in wanting to set those at that).

So for reference (more for me than anyone else)

Me 15/95/760/30/30/85 85/20/50

Os 15/90/1000/1/30/30/80 95/20/50

So for better battery saving ( for ever one else reading ive not had proper chance to test to don't bother asking) but I'd say in theory we could be better at

15/90/760/1 or 0?/30/30/80 95/20/50
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Solaris81:
I'm on cyanogenmod 10.1 RC2, and just installed franco kernal r61 today. Definitely noticing a performance improvement for the UI, but on several occasions now my N7 hasn't woken from sleep when i press the power key, it's then take a further couple of presses to get it to wake up. Is this a known bug?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Yeah I just want to see if we can get away with putting any of those back. nexusmaniac said he already has mst at 45000 with no problems.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] konradsa:
Let me know, willing to help you test. I just love how smooth it is right now and hope we can preserve that! :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] NYLimited:
I have noticed this as well - occasionally, but not always, it takes 2 presses of the power button to bring the screen back on. I was not quite sure what the source was but have definitely seen it.

Excellent results includind no video stuttering, and the noted improved UI and task switching Osm0sis found. Battery life seems great so far but I have no hard #'s. Of note is the 45k MST with no troubles. Recharging over night and will use again to report back on SOT. Also not having any troubles with my lock screen other than a short delay every now and then.

N4/N7 - CM 10.1 Nightly, Franco Kernel
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Exactly, and thanks! :)

If that works no problem then I'd like you to raise med thresh back to 25, since by having it at 20, all 4 cores come online at 80 load anyway. 25 makes more sense, since it'll be 3 cores at 75 load and then we undercut where the 4th core comes on with high thresh 95. :good:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
No problem :)

I will try raising med thresh up to 25 and see how it goes :thumbup:

[Nexus 7 Original Development] MarcAntonyy:
I haven't tried these new settings yet, but is anyone else having major Netflix issues on r61? Primarily freezes, requiring a hard reboot.

It happens consistently, even with Osmosis' settings/tweaks (**the original ones, not these quoted above**).

It's been driving me mad, but after going through the YouTube issues, I decided to try OnDemand and it seems to greatly lessen the frequency in which it happens, but being on OnDemand has its own issues.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
[MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] as soon as I raised med threshold up to 25 I started to notice the YouTube stuttering/lag :(

N4/N7 - CM 10.1 Nightly, Franco Kernel
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Just tested it with Netflix, YouTube and MX Player streaming x264.mp4 across my home network. No issues with 95/25/50 for hotplug, and 15000/90/760MHz/1/45000/30000/80/80000/80000 for interactive. But then raising the min to 204 fixed all the video playback stutter for my device, so we're more dealing with edge case devices lately I think.

---------- Post added at 11:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 AM ----------

Ah damn. Even with med thresh 25 and hispeed_freq 1000 MHz? Also min_sample_time 30000? Because really, if we're being logical, med thresh should be at 25 so we're not onlining all 4 cores at only 80% load.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] canofale:
15/90/760/1/45/30/80 95/25/50

Bumped the medium threshold back up to 25. Still have a silky smooth UI and no troubles. Also Netflix is running like a champ for me.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
We're getting really close to the perfect settings :) I'll try raising the hispeed_freq to 1000 MHz

N4/N7 - CM 10.1 Nightly, Franco Kernel
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Also put mst back down at 30000 if the hf 1000MHz alone doesn't help. Yup, it'll be good to square this away then we can be back on track for milestone and I can bring over some fstab/mount tweaks I've been playing with on the GN side. ;)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
1000 MHz seems to have fixed any YouTube issues so I'm going to try lowering it back to 760 MHz and then lowering mst to 30000

N4/N7 - CM 10.1 Nightly, Franco Kernel
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Shano56:
760 seems really low for power hungry apps these days. I think 1000 should be the lowest default
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
Even though it's set to 760 MHz if an app needs the extra power then it will boost to 1000 MHz or 1300 MHz

So by setting it to 760 it will save power when it doesn't need to ramp up to 1 GHz

N4/N7 - CM 10.1 Nightly, Franco Kernel
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Shano56:
Yea but if the screen isn't touched, it might not "think" it needs any more power, but still does
[Nexus 7 Original Development] nexusmaniac:
[MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] I've changed hsf to 760 MHz and mst at 30000 and there is no lag at all :) I think these are going to be the new defaults

N4/N7 - CM 10.1 Nightly, Franco Kernel
[Nexus 7 Original Development] canofale:
So I have now gotten some stuttering and lag. I am still getting the best "Performance" with the medium threshold at 20, and for obvious reasons. I am still able to run the 760 and 45 mst with no trouble. We'll see how the battery does.

15/90/760/1/45/30/80 95/20/50

---------- Post added at 12:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 PM ----------

It's not input_boost, it's hispeed, so it's not about user interaction/touch, it's about system load. :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Azarin:
I'm having an issue with Franco Kernel r61 and the 3G connection on my device. I understand from reading through the thread that the 3G version should work. The device is as follows:

Nexus 7 32GB 3G

Stock Android 4.2.2

Franco Kernel App

Issue

The 3G connection drops after the device has been on for a couple of hours.

The connection does NOT get re-established even after leaving the device in this state for over a day. Toggling airplane mode does not work. Manually searching for available mobile networks does not work. The only way to re-establish the 3G connection is to reboot the device.

The 3G connection then works for another couple of hours before disappearing.

I have tried flashing the kernel from TWRP then wiping the cache, as well as using the Franco kernel app flash feature. I have tried a few slightly older versions as well without any luck.

Notes - What Works

3G works on the same device using other kernels

Using the stock kernel I have no issues with 3G connectivity. I have also tried a few other 3rd party kernels (M-Kernel and Faux123) which don't seem to exhibit this issue. I use Franco on my Nexus 4 which works flawlessly, so it would be great to use the same one on my Nexus 7 as well if possible.

Kernel Log

The last_kmsg file is around 900KB which is too large for Pastie and Pastebin. I suspect the sample I have included here does not go back far enough, but I have included it anyway in case it contains something useful. If anyone has any other suggestions for such a large file, let me know!

http://pastie.org/7934981

If anyone else has experienced the issue, or has any troubleshooting ideas, it would be great to know.
