do any of you know, when franco will update the franco kernel app that I bought it way back, so that it will support 4.2.1 kernel?

and yes I know I can download r30 and flash it thru fastboot. I just want to know if you guys hear anything about franco kernel updater 4.2.1 support.

thanks!!!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Here's the latest from the GN side:

We're pretty much done with the testing. I think Franco's just putting the final touches on it now. :good: :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] aLPaSLaN07:
Anyone having deep sleep issue with this kernel?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Nope. 98.7% deep sleep here. I've also got the wifi sleep policy set to wifi off when deep sleep.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Here are the possible GPU values I found in the source. :)

Looking at it again you could probably grab any of the different clock values in the file from the 4 CORE sections starting at line 238, they're all CORE frequencies, just for different parts of the core like vde (video decoding engine), mpe (media processing engine), etc., and generally capping at the stock 416. I imagine they all just ramp within their brackets to whatever the closest one (without going over) is to what we set:

https://github.com/franciscofranco/...4084f8/arch/arm/mach-tegra/tegra3_dvfs.c#L238

You'd end up with the following options:

228000, 234000, 247000, 267000, 275000, 285000,

304000, 332000, 352000, 361000, 380000,

400000, 408000, [i]416000[/i], 437000, [i]446000[/i], [i]484000[/i],

[I]520000[/i],

[I]600000[/i], [i]625000[/i]

Edit: Metallice has supplied some more insight on the coded values. So we can mostly disregard the above.

So from https://github.com/franciscofranco/...mr1/arch/arm/mach-tegra/tegra3_clocks.c#L3201 we get:

So in summary? The ones you should use based on the legitimate timings from the code are:

208, 260, 300, 312, [B]416, 520, 666, 750[/B]

But devs have also added some other intermediate steps in at the following mathematically appropriate spots which are good options and also make sense with other parts of the code (as seen in the first half of my post):

[B]446, 484, 600, 625, 700[/B]

P.S. Don't try to underclock. Instant freeze. ;)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] gerb45:
I know this is a noob question and it probably has been answered many times in the past but please help me with flashing this kernel. Can I use a all in one toolkit like wugs nexus toolkit and if so what partition should it be permanently flashed to? Thanks guys I am trying to learn.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] poondog:
You want to flash this kernel? And learn at the same time? Do it the manual way :)

Needed: fastboot and adb working

1. Put the boot-r30.img or whatever you download into your fastboot folder on your PC

2. Hold shift+right click and open command window here, in that folder where your boot-r30.img is

3. Boot your Nexus 7 into the bootloader: whether in adb or on the device (adb reboot bootloader)

4. To flash the kernel to the boot of your device, type this: "fastboot flash boot boot-r30.img" (whatever its name is)

5. Reboot the device: "fastboot reboot"

6. done! Profit :D
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Best noob-proof way to do it is to use franco's app. Download the img to your sdcard then move it to the kernel_backups directory that franco's app makes. Open franco's app and you'll see the image in the list under Kernel backup/restore. Tap and "restore" to flash. Could not be easier.

If you don't own his app by now, you really should get it. Franco deserves your support, the app is amazing allowing a ton of tweaking, and he's got even more amazing stuff planned on his to do list for the next couple versions to make it even better. :good: :)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] twirtle2:
Now after you've learnt all that, just use the toolkit lolol.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] gerb45:
Where can I find this folder?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] krazeecracker:
Your SD card
[Nexus 7 Original Development] gerb45:
I'm not seeing it do I have to download something from the app for it to show?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bonzer2u:
cc
[Nexus 7 Original Development] poondog:
Imo its better to learn how to do stuff yourself without a toolkit. When something goes wrong and you can't be saved by a toolkit, you'll be on your own :)

Sent from my Infected ViperVivo
[Nexus 7 Original Development] krazeecracker:
Which app? Lol

Plus its way more fun the manual way lkl
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
If you have franco's paid app installed and have run it at least once then it makes a kernel_backups directory on your sdcard.

You could go into Kernel backup/restore and backup your current kernel just to make sure since that would create the directory if somehow you've deleted it (though I'm pretty sure it recreates every time you run the app, or every boot or something).
[Nexus 7 Original Development] gnam:
Sorry, I'm still on Cyano 4.1.2...could I use r30 version from this link (http://minooch.com/franciscofranco/Nexus7/4.2/)? Or it's only for 4.2?

[Nexus 7 Original Development] mikespe:
Hey guys...been running Frsncos kernels on my gnex for quite some time...now checking out his nexus 7 work. I'm stock rooted on a Nexus 7 3G. I will say that stock is running VERY smooth since the recent update. Is r30 much of a difference? Can it be used on the 3g version?

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] leelaa:
I think it can be used but honestly Iran not 100% r30 is the dogs bollicks. GPU control brings gaming to a new level. Apart from games that aren't tegra optimised but that is neither the kernels our the devices fault.

I am running rasbean which is basicly stock with a few features and a very nice theme. Combined with brainmasters tweaks and Franco nothing competes with it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jazzespresso:
thanks...

[Nexus 7 Original Development] JDCFH:
App now crashes when trying to look at frequencies etc etc...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Works fine here. Clear app data+cache, or uninstall and reinstall.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Cor-master:
Is it supposed to take a while to boot?

Edit: its not loading past the boot animation. I'm stock, rooted with twrp, what's the problem here? Can I get a stock kernal somewhere?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
I'm guessing you flashed r30 on android 4.1.2? It's for 4.2+ only.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Cor-master:
Nope I just realized what I did, exact opposite. I have 4.2, and I just downloaded the app and let it install the first kernal, r25 unfortunatley. Argh this sucks too because I can't get ADB working on my nexus 7, I had to use a tool kit last time. Fastboot command simply doesn't recognize the device plugged in
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Make sure you're using the cable that came with it. A lot of cables don't have a long enough microusb connector since ASUS made theirs longer to compensate for the curve on the back of the N7. Also use Naked Universal Driver if you aren't already. One driver for the majority of Android devices.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Cor-master:
Yeah I don't get it. I've used fastboot a 1000 times with my Flyer and vivid, but I just can't get it to work with the nexus 7. I got a little folder on my desktop with the fastboot and adb commands and anything I need to flash i just drop in there. This should be an easy fix if my damn computer would just see the nexus. Even stranger when inside android, adb works fine, just in the bootloader it won't see it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Cor-master:
I renamed the kernal to boot.img, but yeah this is what it does pretty much
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
Like I said, double check your cable. I was getting that spotty connectivity when I used a cable where the connector was too short. adb would see it, fastboot wouldn't, but adb push would still fail. Also, make sure you're using the newest Naked driver. v0.72 came out a week or so ago.

If/once you've got the newest naked driver you could also look under device manager and see if it's just that you need to manually install the naked drivers for the bootloader.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Cor-master:
alright I just realized the nexus 7 toolkit has an option to flash files in fastboot, and it worked and my tablet is "optimizing apps for android" (cleared dalvik) so I 'm in business. whew. Still need to try to get this adb thing fixed, don't really like using toolkits,but doing what I gotta do right now.

Back in business!

Definitely noticing the speed increase and rotation is much faster. This looks like what I was looking for. Just wanted a kernel to make this thing fast and buttery again like when I first pulled it out of its box in August, don't care about overclocking or any of that stuff. Great job!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] poondog:
delete lol the question has been answered :silly:
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Cor-master:
Alright one minor issue, clock keeps force closing. Lol dunno why, all I did was flash a kernel and wipe cache.

Hi. I flashed franco kernel on CyanogenMod 10.1 but it stuck at CM logo. Will it be compatible in future with CM10.1 or actually it is but I'm doing something wrong?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] krazeecracker:
We need more info. How did you flash? Fast boot? His app?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] leelaa:
Did you flash it via the app? If so has your app be updated? If not you may have flashed r25 rather than r30.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] osm0sis:
The ramdisk isn't compatible with CM10.1 because of changes the CM Team can't seem to resist making.. Franco's working on it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Cor-master:
Well a reboot fixed the clock, but I just had a SOD while trying to wake the device up from sleep. Kernal related? Otherwise everything has been perfect

What is the best vanilla rom and what is the best modified sense rom?

I want it to be light (uses a low amount of ram) and more stable/fast than the stock rom that gets shipped with your AT&T HTC One X... with better battery life.

Thanks,

Wir3d
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] thebobmannh:
This post is not going to be received well, FYI, but before they lock you down : I'm really enjoying CleanRom Lite. It's definitely more responsive than stock. It's Sense-based. Very stable (based on my experience, more stable than stock even).

I don't think any of them right now are going to affect battery life in any appreciable way.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
There is no "best" ROM. The best one, is the one that fit your wants and needs, and those are not the same from person to person.

Also, just browse the forum or do a search. There are already lots of other threads like this.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SkookDroid:
Im not trying to sound like an ass or anything but cmon, the development thread is literally two clicks away...take a look for yourself man. Nandroid and flash all the ROMs you want so you can pick whats best for YOU
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] iElvis:
There's no one answer because roms perform differently on different phones depending on usage and individual configurations. 500 people may love one rom to death, but you may find it doesn't work so hot on your phone. You have to test them out and see what's best for you.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
Read the ROM threads, find one that you think looks good to you, flash it. Only way to find out.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] martsin:
This all comes down to personal preference so you'll have to go through and see what works for you, each ROM has pros/cons. I've tried 3 myself and I found that the Nocturnal SE 1.7 gives me a good speed boost and battery life, I'm getting about 22-28hrs total with ~3hrs screen time at 50% brightness.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Wir3d:
Thanks guys, I know the rules of the forum very well.. the point of it was to see which one uses the least amount of ram and get some feedback at the same time. I was a HD2 owner for 2 years and was involved in the HD2 forums for as long as I have owned the phone.I just got the the HOX and wanted to get something on it quick..

I don't see a point of injecting every single rom into my phone just to find out which one uses the least amount of ram when I can start a thread and and find out that way and at the same time get some feedback..that is the whole point of a forum like this..to communicate with others that have similar devices and can help you out.. I've checked out the pages for almost every rom but I haven't seen one that clearly states how much ram it uses for example 341 MB/1000MB...

I just registered over there to check it out... I don't know man... it doesn't seem like he really cares if anyone flashes his ROM or not. Gotta have 10 posts to even download it, there's no actual changelog, no list of mods, no screenies.... how am I supposed to know if I even want to flash it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] robertmoore208:
First off... Howdy:)

Doesn't care? Lol, that's harsh ... I know wild child personally and he's the only guy I know that is awake all hours , every day of the week making updates, tweaks, and roms. And never puts a Rom out that doesn't impress, the 10 post rule was put into place to get rid of those who just didn't want to contribute , 10 posts is a very small price to pay for the time and effort put into the work. You can get 10 just hitting the different forums and helping out , and post #2 usually has the change log. They are there I just checked.:D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
Couldn't agree more.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
I didn't really mean it like that, not trying to detract from the hard work that Wildchild puts in. I'm sure it's an awesome ROM and I'm sure he works very hard on it. I just can't find any information on it, even on his own site. After a fair amount of searching, I have no clue what features it has, what kind of tweaks have been made, if it's been themed at all, or just how it differs from the stock ROM. I have seen lots of people mention his ROMs and how awesome they are, so I'm quite curious and would love to check it out but no way am I flashing a ROM that I know quite literally nothing about.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] powerwagon:
Aokp by rohan32 is best vanilla rom out right now...not even close. That is if you don't mind having a non working video camera. It's extremely light (about 140 megs) and very fast when joined with nova launcher. It has mods out the ying Yang too.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Lilshaun:
Can you post a link to the forum. Can't seem to find the specific forum.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
Basically his regular ROM is a tweaked stock ROM and retains all of the stock look with a nice increase in speed. The modded ROMs he releases are more themed and stuff. And it will have a tweaks app built for his ROM that will allow all kinds of customizations. Kind of similar to what's in the xi40 ROM. I used his modded ROM on my Vivid and it was rock solid. I would definitely give it a try, they are very solid ROMs. I saw you posting over there earlier.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Wir3d:
When you said "about 140 megs" do you mean thats how much of the ram it uses or thats how much space it takes on the phones storage. Because I'm looking for a rom that uses low RAM.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ditchedthefruit:
Its all in preference. What you like, and ease of use. I've tried many of the stable and unstable in the past 2 months and find myself back with Scotts ROMs, CleanROM 4.5 DE as of this morning. try em all for a few days or so and see what you like. As for ram used, look at the descrptions an op's for each, its listed there.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] PurpleFries:
What is this obsession with low ram usage? This is a Linux based operating system. Go learn how it uses ram. Free ram = wasted ram. And the newest stock rom has the more ram available to user than any other.

Sent from my One XL
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] raptir:
Anything AOSP (CM, AOKP, etc...) is going to be much lighter on both system storage and RAM usage than anything Sense. The trade off is that you have to be willing to deal with a couple things not working (even the rohan32 AOKP has a couple of minor things not working per the OP in his rom thread, though almost everything is sorted out). As far as Sense ROMs go, you're going to want to look for what has the most bloat/apps removed. Almost every ROM will have the AT&T bloat removed, but others will remove pieces of Sense that you don't want. Something like CleanROM will be fairly light due to how many components of Sense get removed. That said, there won't be a huge difference as the pieces of Sense that are there are still fairly large, and your RAM usage won't (typically) be affected by those extra apps unless you actually use them (some exceptions, obviously).

Why are you trying to minimize RAM usage out of curiosity? You won't see any speed increase or battery life improvement by minimizing RAM usage, unless you're also minimizing CPU usage at the same time. Which again, AOSP will typically be lighter on CPU usage than Sense.

Anyway, in the past I used the backup provided in Go Sms, but now they want you to backup and restore to their cloud servers, so I switched to SMS Backup and Restore from the Play store. One button backup...one button restore. Worked like a charm....
