[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] I got the dynamic toggle to work FYI. Flashed to rasbean and everything is cherry. Also might hit my 6hr SOT again whereas with the dynamic gov I was lucky to get 4.5Hr. I feel you should remove it entirely. It seems to work on paper and in a perfect world. But to be honest... It doesn't. If anything make it off by default.

About the heating discussion:

I usually use EDGE only (for more battery life). But today I turned off this "only EDGE"-option and ... oh wow where is an egg for a fried egg on the phone ^^

Anyway since I own a Nexus 10 my Nexus 4 is only needed if I can't take my Nexus 10 with me or use Whatsapp (and guess what, using the rarely used telephone and sms function [for those who do not know what sms is: it is an older variant of Whatsapp without internet connection and in most cases even more expensive than Whatsapp :P ]). Otherwise I use my Nexus 4 as a BT hotspot for Nexus 10 (ok, as a student in computer science you do not have enough problems so you try to create some new).

Then who can we ask for help for this issue? Do you have any friend good at that?

The mic problem is not that it's not loud enough but instead it's too loud and even distorted in audio recording (but okay in phone call). It is possible that the audio recording mechanism has some problem either in the kernel or in the rom. We hope some one could solve for god's sake.

I know uv has been talked A LOT but what are the real benefits? More battery? I always get 5 SOT so maybe I don't need it
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] drakester09:
After reading some background from the Gnex times, I can assure it won't happen. The phone has enough Ram as is and it doesn't need that gimmick mess of tweaks and snake oil. No real developer will ever take anything from him seriously.

Enjoy your new phone, it doesn't need that. :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
Mainly to heating reasons. The battery consumption savings is negligible.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
UV makes my phone cooler. Same with others who did it and the same will happen to your phone if you'd do it. Battery savings is said to be very minimal.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sir*mez:
How did you manage that? I tried putting a file in init.d with a value of 0 to turn off dynamic gov, then I entered my values in governor control but each time I reboot the values are changed and my vaues don't stick.

Edit: I'm just going to put all my values into a init.d file until Franco adds it to the app. F' it.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] fkrone:
I think undervolting is like "Oh look, I can get 10 minutes longer battery life". I tried to undervolt my old Galaxy 3 (sad starting in the Android world). But this had nearly no effect. So if you prefere a stable device over an unstable device with a little more battery life keep away from undervolting.

However, the most battery consuming part is the screen so lowering the brightness or even not turning on the screen that often would give you more SOT.

BTW: Among 25 people in my course I am the only one with Nexus 10. You mostly see there iPhones and SGS3s. And my own statistics with let's say 4 people proofes that only 1/4 of the mako users studying computer science :P
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] undercover:

Franco, I think adding a mic gain option would be great.... I use my phone a lot for writing sessions and they always come out very distorted... If I can bring the gain down a hair that would make sense also for video recordings when in a concert perhaps or when just recording voice audio clips.... Right now as it is its very sensitive and it's almost impossible to avoid distortion.

Just my input not saying that your wrong :)

Elaborate. Where does the dynamic tuning fails? It only scales up if using 4 cores, rest of the time its pretty static. It scales min_sample_time to 500ms for 500ms when you touch the screen.

I'll think about it.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jarjar124:
Is the new touch input active only when using interactive or conservative as well?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] pikachukaki:
Mic is working great...but if you really want to add gain it will be ok cause sometime if your not holding your phone with your hand sometimes the other one can't hear you...also for me speaker gain like faux (evil) will be a great addition!!

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ÜBER™:
It doesn't account for everyone's usage. The way you have it setup or by how I take it depending on load it tunes the governor settings. But just scrolling or flipping through apps uses quite the power (use perfmon you'll see) and it stays using the performance tunables and completely ruins my battery. This is the first time in forever that I've had my phone on for 1day+ with more than 4.5 hours.

Like I said, on paper and in code it looks perfect. But it doesn't work perfectly. At least for me. :\

Yeah, I use my phone for songwriting sessions all the time... It's kind of embarrassing when I send the files to my cowriters because it's all distorted. Videos get affected as well..

I guess not everybody experiences the same issue... But it's a valid point to add the option since a lot of us in the industry use the phone for audio a lot cause its quick and easy to lay down an idea on the spot or while in the car.

There seems to be a problem. Use your beta version of system monitor that refreshes faster to confirm. It is very rare the the cpu frequancy stays, it seems that it is constantly jumping around without ever "resting" at 384 even if you are doing nothing. This is agrivated by a touch on the screen, after a touch the cpu's frequancy jumps all over the place and it doesnt seem to calm down...

I think we are losing big time on battery because of this...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] espionage724:
I want to go to school for Network Administration :good: Kind of interested in programming, just can't seem to get the motivation to really get started... (I have some ideas for apps and games I'd want to develop, but feel it would take months/years of learning before I can actually produce something usable)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Redneck Trash:
So a running foreground app monitoring the CPU is "doing nothing"?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Net.silb:
No but it definitely doesn't need the CPU at 1512 or 1350 or 1026 or wait 1512 again and 702 and 1188 and back to 1512 then 384 then 1512 then 384 then 1350 then 1188 then 1512 again and so on and so on.........

Besides, if you look at the load you'll see that its a very low load that doesn't require any CPU ramping or hotplugging.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
I actually noticed this behavior since the dynamic governor was introduced, on idle it scales randomly between 384,702, 584, 1512 etc. (in theory should be terrible) interestingly battery life has been great so I just ignored it, have been able to pull about 3 hrs SOT at 50% battery so its working the same, can't really complain
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Net.silb:
I'm barely scratching 3 hours SOT every day on 3g all day...

Used to be able to do 3.5 - 4 hours SOT with same usage...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ngkongArm:
mine, less than yours with 3G all days. T_T
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I just watched it a bit and it seems normal behaviour to me. Interactive is a very low latency oriented governor, it responds to load changes quite more than other governors. If you don't want it to jump that much you can increase the timer_rate to 50k or something.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
Best SOT I've ever gotten on 3G is about 4 hrs, I use Wi-Fi only, usually game for about 30 mins, at least an hour of calls and use my phone to do whatever. Browsing takes the least battery

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Net.silb:
It was sitting at 384 and when I touched the screen, it started jumping around like crazy again and it isn't settling down...

To reproduce exactly, swipe the screen, and you will see it settles down. Then when you do a single touch it starts jumping around like crazy. If you swipe the screen and wait two seconds it settles down again...

Basically, only happens after a single touch.

Tried that, can't reproduce, it just sits at 384MHz with between 0% and 2% load. Are you sure you don't have something running in the background? After I touch or swipe around it quickly goes back to normal values and behaves normally, no crazy jumping around!

But I'm glad you mentioned it few posts ago, I went to read my code and improved some parts and I was like "duuuuhhhh so obvious".

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] aviz1911:
6 hours on screen time !!

I am using latest franco's latest kernel with cyanogen mod 10.1. Before on stock i got only 3 hours on screen time. But after flashing franco kernel it boosted all the way upto 6 hours. I'm always on wifi, reading e-books, watching videos on youtube etc.

I undervolted CPU voltages using franco kernel updater app and did not reduce the performance i.e underclock the CPU frequency, Brightness-AUTO

Max frequency: 1512mhz

Min frequency: 384mhz

Rest of the settings are Default.

I would like thank Franco for his wonderful kernel.

Not to be too negative, but this screen has a major flaw: if you charge, let's say 20% only, this doesn't reset the stats! Some users manager to get 12+ hours on a HTC, that was a big joke.

I usually get around 5-6 hours of real screen-on time, regardless of device/kernel/ROM, using various optimizations applied with Android Tuner, all of which can be found here on XDA and done manually. 8-10 hours on the Note 2 though ;). But results depends on actual usage and actual standby time, eg achieved 3h33m of screen-on over 7+ days on the N2.
