156 seems to be perfect. I'm getting brilliant results ie 5 hours SOT with regular usage , with conservative governor, 702 touchfreq . I've tweaked the conservative settings a bit - down threshold set to 30% , frequency step 20% and upthreshold 80%

I've been wondering if allowing the cpu to race-to-idle really helps battery life. Maybe I could experiment using interactive. Thoughts?

270 hours since last reboot, and that was me flashing the kernel. Pretty stable, thnx franco for putting in the house :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
That only occurs if one disable the thermal driver and requires a reboot to be re-enabled.

Yeah just seen it :(

I'll take a look into his code. If its good code and it works I don't see a problem in merging his GPU governor as my GPU knowledge on Qualcomm chips is pretty null. But only after M3 release which I plan on releasing in a few days after I finish the Per-App Settings on FKU.

So after a few days of testing, r156 has been awesome for battery life. My only issue with my Nexus 4 now and it's not really an issue with the kernel is that because it's summer when I use Google Navigation, the phone gets so hot that after a few minutes, it won't charge off car charger any more.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Shano56:
Try undervolting and making sure charger is high enough amperage
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] lordvj:
The amperage doesn't matter . The rating specified on the charger is just the maximum current output the charger is capable of providing. This will range from 800mA to 1.2A depending on the charger. The phone will definitely never draw so much current.

Found a weird setting thing francisco.

I changed values for colors (the unsigned int ones) on gamma_control.c, and the values are "loaded", but are not applyed to the screen itself on boot. i must apply them manually (the LG default ones are on the screen instead) to really apply them.

I confirmed later on using Trickster to set them on boot: values are loaded, but not applyed, must set the exacr same values, but manually fashion. Any toughts, do I must change something else n source?

Already undervolted by 100 mV. I don't even see what the charger amperage has anything to do with it. My charger is 1A, but a higher current draw would only make the battery even hotter while charging.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] TrenchKato:
The phone is using both the GPS and 3g radios at the same time. Add that with charging and constant screen on and your phone is sure to get hot. Do you have the phone in a dock? In direct sunlight?

Maybe the stoppage in charging is a product of thermal throttling.

I would try turning off the screen on long stretches on gps

I seen a screenshot of someone with 60fps, that's why i was wondering. It could have been an older version though
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yokuyuki:
Throw in bluetooth too. Yes, the phone is in a dock and yes, it is in direct sunlight. Kind of hard to drive and look at it without having it in a dock and in direct sunlight.

The Nexus 4 seems to stop charging the battery due to overheat at around 50 C. I already know that :P It's only been happening in the summer and that's why I said it was an issue with the phone being 1) black so that it absorbs a lot of sunlight 2) covered in glass so that it's poor at dissipating heat. I'm curious if aluminium phones like the HTC One have the same issue.

funny

Funny how people judge a kernel by all the extra crap added to them , dose that really make it better ? Ummmm ya NO !!! obvious 99% of people that try francos kernel love it . anyone that follows his work nos he's adds things gradually , he's not like certain other devs that add a bunch of **** all at one time then have a crap product that gets updated daily cause they haft to casue its broken or bricked a unbrickable device. Its francos kernel and following his work for the last 2-3 years he's not going to rush cause someone said this other kernel has this so I'm leaving . cracks me up all the people here that changed a few settings now there professional "dev's" if u can do better make your own kernel ;)

My opinion , don't bother talk **** on my post cause I don't have the time for it and don't care ;) and yes I no my punctuation and English sucks, thanks ;)

22 running great franco , been playing with 594 min mhz and its not casued any big battery diffrence .

Is your phone bouncing between USB and AC charging even if you're plugged into a wall socket? If that's the case and you haven't caught it saying USB, the charging profile will have little saw tooth like blips on the up slope. 0-100 takes 3 hours 8 minutes average for me on AC, at least according to Battery Widget Reborn, but it seems like an accurate enough number.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Are.Two:
Got the app update and have started playing around with the Per-App Power Modes. First suggestion right off the bat is that when you check the Disable Per-App Power Modes Service box, it should be set up to gray out and disable the ability to push any of the options on the screen. Then when you uncheck it, it brings back the ability to press and set the options.

I'm going to actually play around and set some per-app settings now. Update looks great!

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Cuzz1369:
Really need the ability to set number of cores online rather than just a threshold. There are plenty of apps that I don't care to have 2 cores online for. Some I want all 4. I realize the later can be controlled by high load threshold but really want 1 core for readers. Most of the time the second core is sitting there while I read a page. I'll put up with a little bit of lag on certain apps. This is what I was looking forward to most about this per app stuff.

---------- Post added at 07:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 PM ----------

Or prolly an easier implementation for you would be to have a "limit number of cores" option. In think this would be best.

Carbonized and francofied N4
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] manulemaboul:
I'd like:

Number of cores online: 1, 2, 3, 4, hotplug

Min and max freq applied to all onlined cores, not only the first one (currently, min freq is only applied to him).

So we could lock 2 cores at 702 for this, 1 at 384 for that, or 4 at full power for this,... It'd be awesome :)

Tapatalk 4, for exemple, visibly needs 2 cores at 1ghz to be and stay butter smooth, I'd love to be able to lock it like that :).

Maybe even a minimum and Max per for an app too but who knows what will happen.

Well, I got to admit, making the first core sitting at 1ghz helps that crap already a lot :).

Is it me, or does it takes 2s to auto-apply ?

are you going to include any per app profiles in the future or will it always be 100% up to the users?

i dont think they should be forced on people but maybe an option to load a list of recommended profiles for performance would be nice at some point, kinda like what you have with the color profiles.

maybe even two lists, one for battery and one for performance.

Judging by other kernels usability i think franco you have to do whatever you want and dont hear from us!we all wanting something else and in the end we dont be happy with it!i saw all other kernels dont work by listening to what the user said and they working great and im sad to tell this but better than Franco's who was the reason that i didnt bought s3 but bought n4!just my thought your kernel your game!
