hi guys looking for a lil assistance here. I flashed a new aokp build alongside with franco 111 however the colour scheme is off and from m1 and 110 it was a beauty... anyone have the settings for m1? I was using the recommended values but with 111 there are very "weird"

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] fozzie:
Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r111 | M1

I'm not sure anything was changed with respect to colour in r111.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ajayshah95:
Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r111 | M1

I've had bad battery life on stock rom with Franco kernel, 1-2 hours SOT and less than 10 hours standby, no games played and not a lot of media consumption. I've removed a lot of apps so I'm not sure what the problem is

Not sure if this is the kernel and I doubt it is with the great comments on battery life so I will factory reset and try again, and then install PA rom with this kernel to see if that changes anything.

I'll get back with my findings.

Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r111 | M1

My first 6/18 battery day ever now with r111. Stock ROM, Straight wifi, UV - 100, Touch Control. Particularly impressive since the current screen colors require indoor brightness level of 30-70 percent where previously I was getting by at 0-50. Happy camper. Will try Battery Guru then Greenify and see if I can hit 6/20. So far no issues with kernel at all, seems perfectly smooth and fast.

No, but there is a thread for greenify. :p

For me I found that guru mysteriously caused my phone to drain more power than saving it. Although they are two complete different apps with different goals. I find greenify to be a more battery saving app for me. Guru optimizes your device to save power but it just seems like any other power saving app like juice defender or Deep Sleep Battery Pro app. That's my two cents. :o
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] thebryceee:
Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r111 | M1

Hey Franco,

Great kernel and I greatly appreciate it! But something that popped up that surprised me was that on r111 I get no external speaker audio. What I did was a full wipe and installed slim rom 2.0 then did a dirty flash to 2.6. then flashing r111. - after finding out about the audio problem I flashed back down to r110. I"m not sure if I did anything to cause this audio issue or if this is known (i searched a bit but didn't see anything) but r110 has speaker audio and r111 doesn't.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
Yes, smaller number ramps up the CPU faster (smaller sample) so games are smoother. But it's also been mentioned that decreases battery life.

The mobile website has limitations. For one – it's not as smooth as the app, second – when you open a post or a photo and press back it returns you to the top of the page, which isn't very cool. And don't forget you get customizable push notifications with the app. I actually haven't noticed any wakelocks or battery drain from having Facebook on background. The only time it's been showing in the android battery window is when I've been using it foreground. I've just set the sync interval to "never" and use only push notifications.

Regarding Greenify – definitely a neat idea for the app for but not necessarily needed for everyone. I've got 100+ apps and I didn't find anything running on the background that I didn't want.

No. You might have apps constantly running in the background and that could be the reason why it's awake for those 3+ hours.

I recommend trying out an app call Greenify. It stops apps from starting up and running on it's own. It'll save you battery power. Give it a try.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
I second that.

Greenify is so simple and it actually works. I'm surprised its free lol
