I am getting 15000 antutu scores on 174 default settings stock rom. is this normal can someone test antutu on 174 default settings. used to get 17000 on stock kernel. i know benchmarks dont mean a thing but still can someone check.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nachordez:
The answer is... YES.

Try it... :thumbup:

Of course! Franco defaults are optimized for battery/performance equilibrium. If you want to get maximum power (even more than stock) you can easily tweak it for that. But then, don't say battery sucks!

Stock kernel: performance

Custom kernel: what you want!

Nexus4 / Cataclysm / Franco
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] alanwyl:
Stock is more like 20k.

But who cares, does you kernel work? Does it give you a good experience? Is it better than some you tried earlier?

From my experience, I found it running cooler and smoother than stock on 4.3, apart from the screen tearing.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] arpitnathany:
Thanks as i said benchmarks dont mean a thing. kernel is working fine, just wanted to know if this is par for the course for this kernel
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] G4neStarT:
But this is weird anyway the phone feels faster with r174 than stock but on antutu i cant pass 16k no matter what even if i set the gov to performance. Or on stock i get lower performance and smoothness compare to r174 but higher score on antutu ( dont get me wrong please i dont mean that stuck kernel is slow on the contraire is one of the faster and snooter kernel that google ever made :) ). Franco are some kind of wizard :p

I compile with arm-linux-androideabi and its fine. If I compile with arm-eabi it outputs that error. I have looked and I don't understand what it means by incomplete type because its correct.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] arpitnathany:
exactly

same thing happened with me i thought maybe i had done something wrong, but it is just like that it feels faster but benches lower.

Another thing is franco default calibrated for color cos i was under the impression it was but i do not notice it.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Benchmarks are synthetic benchmarks. They don't test what happens when you touch the display, they don't test multi-tasking, they don't test how the CPU scales the frequencies on certain operations, they don't test the Hotplug capabilities and its algorithm. Benchmarks just run scripts doing crazy operations like encryption, how many new objects it can create in X seconds, how fast it can calculate some number etc. I optimise my code for user experience, not bencharmarks. And yes r174 is beyond stock smoothness :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] G4neStarT:
Franco Thank you for this explanation now i understand thing very well ( benchmark) than before . thank you again for your hard work . im gonna tell you something ( and yes im kissing ass so what ? ;) ) your kernel since Gnexus made and still making the best of my nexus and today still got nexus because of your hard work . just keep it bro . ( Wizard :) )

I can't download r174 from fku because it says r165 is the latest nightly, how did u guys get it ?

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] blueren:
Franco, this sounds noobie but here goes..

I was restoring stuff from Tibu.. While doing so, 3 cores came online @ 1026MHz. However touching the screen at that point in time doesn't spike the cpu to 1.5Ghz.. How does this work?

I dont know if its the kernel or the rom but i can OC -150 mv now across the board

Im runing stock 4.3 + r174

UV, you mean?! ;)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nachordez:
WOW! I'm amazed!

I've been for two days on Cataclysm + FK r174. I don't know who's is the magic, if it's going from r173 to r174, Cataclysm, or both together, but suddenly my battery has really improved a lot! Been nearly all day out of home, on 3g, more than 4 hours with really bad signal (as every day), and when I arrived home, I'm on more than 3½ hours SOT, and still 29% battery. With the same use, I had just around 2½-3h SOT, and not more than 25% before. It's a nice improvement. :thumbup:

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ranasrule:
what are the issues with PA 4.3 ?

what about PA 4.2.2 ?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] squadz:
Slightly off topic, but I use Franco's Kernel on my N4 (with his paid app) so I thought I'd ask quickly.

Any plans to continue your kernel for the new Nexus 7? I've seen you work with several Nexus devices, just thought I'd ask.

Sorry for the derail.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] bokagavrilov:
Pa 4.2 its fine. PA 4.3 it's based on jss(aosp) this kernel it's on Jwr(ota/image) so they are 2 different builds
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Chris_n00bz:
PA 3.92 (the latest version that support Android 4.3) use JSS15J while Franco developed its kernel using JWR66V.

It works perfectly well for PA 4.2.2 --> the latest Franco kernel version should be r165 for 4.2.2
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:

Yes, but I don't have the new Nexus 7 yet...

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Connor Baker:
No. It does not. As of this moment, Franco's kernel is officially only compatible with JWR builds of android (the stock ota package).

P.A, as seen in the title "[AOSPA 4.3 JSS15J] PARANOIDANDROID 3.92 (Aug3)" is a JSS build (built from source).

There is however, a build of Franco's kernel compatible with JSS. I'm not going to post a link, but rather, let you find it yourself.

Franco,

Would you be willing to enable the above modules for compatibility with bponury's Slide2Wake app?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dapsANDpoundz:
First day rooted again and back on FK. r165 was great for me battery wise and performance wise. 4hr SOT consistently is good enough for me. Stock 4.3 was great on battery too but performance wasn't too great. Lags, stutters, apps and keyboard locking up. Now on r174, amazing difference in performance. Literally like night and day. Not having same luck battery wise though but hopefully that changes soon.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] JNewms:
When you were on stock 4.3 had you done a full wipe? Stock isn't laggy at all.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
ANY help from members will be very appreciated!!

Im having an issue with r174. I flashed stock 4.3 JWR66V yesterday clean install brought back all my apps and apps only with Titanium Backup then rooted with SuperSU 1.51 after that I proceeded to install franco's kernel to join in on his kernel goodness again.

But now from my testing My phone stays awake WAY WAY longer than it ever did on r165 (Awake 9h 42m according to BBS and 7h 50m according to GSam Battery monitor widget on a 10h day so far!!) So my screen on time is almost 2hr but Android OS is in second place as a battery consumer and that hasnt been the case since I was on stock 4.2.1 kernel on r165 and a that point 2nd place app was always my most used app never Android OS, Android OS was always very small in comparison and it doesnt look like its apps because I check app stats via Better Battery stats and the longest time held awake was by Modern Combat (30m because I was downloading via wifi) then its audio out at like 10 mins. So im pretty sure its not apps again this never happend in 4.2.2 and r165.

Now what does show as using up my battery or holding it awake is "Kernel (Android OS)" via GSam it says keep awake 6h 40m. This is completly odd to me Ive never had this issue and was wondering what it could be? Could the kernel be acting up for some odd reason? I have re downloaded r174 to see if I got a bad download but this was the result still and I havent downloaded anything new just the same stuff Ive used on r165 4.2.2. Can anyone help me figure this out or how can I show a log or something like that? I turned on logging just incase because I was getting funky battery time and time held awake.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I'm not sure about supporting modules at this moment. I'm in debate with myself.

O_O I cannot replicate that.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
The Kernel isn't doing any wonky ****, trust me. Do you have Wi-Fi always scanning for location activated?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
I wouldnt think so your kernel has always been great for me and to me its why I bought your app in the first place without even trying it I had faith in it lol But nope Keep wifi on is checked "always" Network notification is unchecked, scanning always is unchecked, avoid poor connections is unchecked, and wifi optimization is unchecked. Ive never done a log or anything like that but would that help to see what could be keeping it awake?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ragnarokx:
Thanks for the consideration.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] danielvc:
Install a fresh stock rock again and add apps 1 by 1 instead of restoring them all with TB. It must be a rogue app.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
And it could be a rouge app if it doesnt show up anywhere in BBS or GSam? and even though I didnt have any issues at all on 4.2.2? It just seems odd that it would happen now all of a sudden when the only thing I changed was the Android os and putting in r174 and the fact that Ive been fine on 4.2.2 with r165 I have even done a device swap when on 4.2.2 using TB the same way I did this install, with a clean factory flash and root then Install all apps. But yea I was thinking of doing a clean install again but installing one by one through google play will be a super pain because my Wifi is super slow.. Thats why I use TB. Sigh idk what it could be and I hate to have to go through that..:(

I'm having an issue with r174 on my nexus 4 running stock 4.3 jwr66v. I'm not sure why it shows that WiFi is always on in my battery stats even though it is switched off most of the time.

I was having all kinds of issues with apps. Dropbox was screwed badly. Instead of letting google restore my apps like I meant I restored using TiBup out of habit. Took forever to figure out what was wrong.

I echo the other suggestions of wiping and reinstalling. How I did it was saved texts and certain app data I knew would not puck around and my pictures that wasnt saved to g+. Then wiped and reinstalled everything via play store. The apps I needed data from restored them via tibup after I signed in from the fresh install. I have not had any problems since.

Francisco you mentioned the sound module issue briefly, I was curious if you think you are going to be able to get it back going? Or if there is something us users can do to help you debug it?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
What issues were you having? Cause all im having is my phone being held awake and from what it looks like is not by apps. Its by "Kernel (Android OS)" according to GSam and Android OS is my 2nd highes batter consumer behind the screen but I dont have any apps that are running in the background constantly waking the phone Im infact using the same exact apps I was using on 4.2.2 with r165 thats where Im confused. I have a full logcat but idk if posting that would be helpful.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
First of all you could phrase your answer more nicely but I guess I shouldn't expect that from anyone on the internet. Anyway, first-timers and newcomers to Franco's kernel and Android are likely to make mistakes and "holding their hand" is the nice thing to do. Of course it's good to learn by reading and even to learn by making mistakes so they won't happen again, but helping out by specifying something that causes problems to so many people seems right to me. But whatever.

Same answer as the above. You are correct by saying people need to read more before flashing but some people are newcomers/first-timers that don't always fully understand what they are doing.

Well, since everyday someone comes in and asks about it I'd say it's not common knowledge at all.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RedBeardT:
Hasn't worked for me at all since 4.3. The option appears as it should on the appropriate kernels but changing the setting in trickster has no effect. I've tried several different kernels under rasbean ROM.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] limeaide:
Like I said dropbox was fubared. Could not use it at all. Other apps worked but half assed. I would watch the screen turn on randomly for no reason, meaning no notification, nothing just turn on. Honestly a clean flash and install from the play store is the best option. Then restore only data from apps you know arent fubared. It is probably a silly issue that will take several hours/days to track otherwise.

[MENTION=4229013]ramsayeg[/MENTION] nope. If you dont like my response check out zelendel's post you can find here.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16682226&postcount=2441

Just because people are too lazy to read does not mean it is not common knowledge either. If I had more time I would quote each post since 4.3 was released talking about this and I guarantee there would be atleast one question on each page. It takes all of five to ten minutes to read back a few pages. Ignorance is not a excuse it is a disease.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
:D so what your saying is noobs shouldn't have to read? , lets just breast feed them? Being a noob gives even more reason to read IMO its how u learn. Heres the fix - - - - read the OP specially after a major google update or if u dont keep up with thread, its y its there and gives 100% of installation directions, read it line by line read it twice. Cant find answer use search, its faster and most likely question has been asked, most issues with franco kernel are found within the hour of new kernels /app. Still cant find then ask.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
But the thing is not one of my apps is messed up I havent had any app issues what so ever. I did do a clean 4.3 flash before restoring my apps then I rooted then I installed r174 thats when I took note to the phone not wanting to sleep properly. And first thing I checked was app wakelocks and what apps where running but all looked fine like I used to use on 4.2.2 with r165 the only thing that shows thats keeping the phone awake is Android OS in the stock battery stats and "Kernel(Android OS)" in GSam battery monitor thats what is stumping me so much because it doesnt seem like apps at all..
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] limeaide:
I promise you if you install from the play store and only restore selective app data it will stop. I dont know the technical reason but it worked for me. It might seem unlikely but there is something you restored that is causing this to happen. Its just not jiving with 4.3 and needs to be freshly installed.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
Sigh I may have to do that as a last resort... What I will do is flash stock kernel and see how that works with me cause I didnt fully test it before flashing fk so if that is or isnt keeping my phone awake aswell then I guess it is an app with funky data and ill have to go through damn google play... :/ I hate having slow internet...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Just throwing random **** out there. Go into titanium backup hit the checkmark scroll down to 'remove orphan data' is there any apps there? If there is hit run to delete them then go install whatever was there from playstore.
