Sv: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r102 | M1

Im not sure if the freqs should be jumping like this, if its normal theres no need to answer this. Just XDA browsing, appdrawer etc.

Love this kernel, fantastic work.

Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r102 | M1

Hi franco, that language used in the git you linked, is it c++?

I apologize for the noobyness :o But I'm just 15 and I just started the very basics of c++ and c because in the future, I'd very want to develop my own kernels too :D

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Vangelis13:
Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r102 | M1

^^ This.

Was wondering however, wouldn't flashing the kernel (either the one that bootlooped or a totally different one) again or (in twrp's file manager) deleting the apk of the app used to undervolt cure it?

Am totally noob with undervolting bootloops. I've probably undervolted 3 times in all those years. Don't get the point.. :o

Moral: always keep the rom - gapps - kernel files on your sd!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
When flashing new kernel, franco's app doesn't restore the voltages for safety measure, so they'll be reverted to defaults. You're good enough with just flashing a kernel.

Note for the future: don't play with UV with "set on boot" option checked. Test extensively first, then check it if you're certain it's stable.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Dan53:
Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r102 | M1

Not quite sure how francos is done but I think the app writes to files, so deleting an apk won't work as the files have still been changed. If you clear the app data it resets all the files to their default values so that would work. Reflashing the kernel (probably) will overwrite the files and sets them to default values so that works too.

Also, your moral is good.

If the phone is 'flying', why doesn't it fly through benchmarks?

Special benchmark detection code?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] alanwyl:
Following the benchmark thing, I just ran Antutu scoring 16XXX on EOS. I also ran it when I was using PA, and it scored 21XXX, but it is just not as smooth.

The point is: suppose the benchmark app is utilizing all of 4 cores efficiently, and that it runs at full speed, it is telling our devices' limit.

But, the fact is:

1. We don't want the device to run at peak frequencies that often as it is not normal. It will make the device hot in a short period of time.

2. Even heavier games, like NFS:MW, or Real Racing 3 are using 2 cores only most of the time.

3. We have better experience with only 2 cores enabled, smoother than 4 cores enabled.

The benchmark result is just pathetic on 2 cores only.

This draws a conclusion:

1. Benchmarks does not judge our experience on the phone.

2. Our mighty Android OS does not utilize 4 cores efficiently, so are the apps.

That's why people are saying benchmarks are useless.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yukarundeng:
well, both matter for me:)

Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r102 | M1

Comment bellow yours nailed it.

People benchmark differently, phones are setup differently, apps aren't (most of the time) optimised.

My phone is the fastest / smoothest android experience I've ever had; putting it in a sealed bag, in the freezer, thermal throttling turned off, over clocked to the max, producing a 5 digit "performance score" that is higher or lower than yours means........exactly, nothing.

F or any other kernel dev using it in their own "protected" environment for testing purposes? Yes sir, 100% useful. Hopefully..

You and me? Zero meaning, nil. Maybe for joking around & a bit of a tease, yes.

(Btw, not to mention you can fake scores. Didn't hear it from me..:p)

Then for showing off. You should overclock instead of doing some kind of optimization. That's the real increasing in points if you care. And yes, here we may never see overclock. Now press Ctrl+W or Cmd+W. This should solve your problem.

I suspect color calibrations shouldn't be made using auto-brightness. If the brightness changes mid calibration, your measurements cannot represent your display's true capabilities.

That's the wakelock that shows while you're charging. No big deal.

Isn't it possible that it might actually use more battery because it takes longer for the app to go back to deep sleep due to running slower?

Yes. That's why you should calibrate at 50% brightness.

Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r102 | M1

Hmm been getting a black screen after closing some games like eternity warriors 2 and major mayhem. The screen freezes, then goes black and I have to press the 3 buttons for it to reboot.

After reboot the data for that game is gone for some reason and then there's no last_kmsg in /proc. Also my wallpaper is changed.

Any ideas about this? Is this related to the ROM or kernel? I'm using AOKP build 5.

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Dan4u:
hey whats the minimum expected screen on time on 3G with 50% brightness? no gaming, just browsing and calls
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] SubwayJrd:
Realistically, you'll have to do those tests yourself if you want to know what YOU will get. Browsing/calls is subjective for different users as a "baseline" of use. It also depends heavily on your signal strength.

I can safely say "Good" though.

Just a suggestion for the franco apps. When we update our rom, we need to re flash the kernel. Can you add the possibility to re flash the kernel without re download the kernel? Or maybe you delete it after the flash?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
It is stored on your SD card partition, but the easier solution would be to make a backup of the kernel via the app, flash your new Rom, and restore the backup.

2 things I would like to see in Franko kernel. Hotplug ON/Off switch and one step down from 384 MHz. With all cores online all the time my N4 is 99% on 384 MHz. I believe even one step down from it with all cores online N4 will handle that just normally. That mean even less voltage and less frequency for battery saving.

I mention that couple times by now but never get straight answer. Can we vote for this? :good:

Franco, any possibility you are going to have a further look at the touch screen sensitivity? I'm still getting problems in the lockscreen with the status bar getting pulled down by itself. Something like 2/3 times every 24h. It's less than what it was on r102, but it's still there for me and others too.
