Many thanks Francisco!

I'll test this bad boy out throughout my day at work and report back. :good:

Hey Francisco.

Just a quick query...

You wouldn't happen to know why my device reverts back to stock kernel after restarting my device, would you?

It does the same thing on both my Nexus 4 and 7, though I'm currently using PARANOIDANDROID betaFIVE on both devices. Currently, PARANOID is an AOSP ROM and isn't built from CM sources anymore.

I don't know if anyone else has had similar issues, although this problem is forcing me to reflash your kernels everytime I restart either one of my devices.

Thanks for listening and I hope you can advise me on what needs to be done.

(Also, I'm sorry if this was mentioned elsewhere in the thread, though I couldn't find any trace of this issue on here.)

I would never buy the app because you used the word "choosed" haha j/k. On a serious note though are you planning on ever including this with your updater app because I bought that one and I really like consolidation.

Geez how did I miss that. I'm usually the one thinking don't people even read the threads haha
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Martin_Ro:
do you use "fastboot boot..." or "fastboot flash..." because "fastboot boot..." boots only one time with the selected kernel without flashing it (kind of test function) only if you use "fastboot flash..." it will be permanently flashed to your phone and stays there for all time (or till you flash an other one^^)

What's the hype with 'ROW' ?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] KyraOfFire:
It's new, really new. People are excited when a new software, algorithm, etc. comes out, hoping that it'll be better than current ones.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
ID still say try wiping , since your only one ATM ( hasn't happened to me since I wiped ) ya that ROM shouldn't cause issues , . or maybe use faux reset kernel then flash franco agn if u don't wanna wipe , . that reset kernel fixed all kinds of issues on my gnex , specially when I was bouncing around trying everyone s kernel. Worth a try can't hurt nothing . good luck ;)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] richteralan:
There's no hype. Read/Google ROW scheduler before you say it's hype and help to decrease these unnecessary questions.

I usually try to avoid the "zOMG, battery life" post, but I can't help myself this time.

With admittedly very light usage, and on WiFi 90% of the time I ended up with 3:20 of screen time over 52 hours. Most use was Tapatalk and a lot of G+, a few emails.

Geeked out on some screen captures along the way....and, well....framed them. Didn't take ones at the end at 4% before plugging in.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Chochiwpg:
What ROM are you running this kernel on?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] CMNein:
CM10.1, should add, emails always on push Google Now on, but many cards disabled. This isn't the norm however, if I wasn't on vacation, and all my clients on vacation, the email traffic would have reduced these numbers quite a bit.

Xylon 12-29 with r23 and default settings besides the ROW I/O scheduler. I'm at 50% battery life with 2 hours and 50 minutes of screen on-time with moderate usage. Best I have seen thus far. The wake lock issue appears to be resolved. Performance seems better with ROW vs deadline, but I'll need more time to determine whether that is just placebo.

Edit: I also notice the phone runs cooler than prior kernels, even with heavy browsing and persistent screen-on.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] tyea:
If I flash Franco kernel via the latest Franko kernel updater app onto Rasbeanjelly 12/30 ROM, none of my apps go though the 'android-is-updating' routine. When installed that way for kernels R22 and R23, my N4 would discharge while charging via USB, even while under idle use periods.

If I install Franco kernel manually via cwm, wiping cache and dalvic cache, everything works great, and I have no discharge problem.

Awesome, I am running the same ROM, I will give it a try thanks.

Is there any way to turn the vibration strength back to normal after installing this kernel? I prefer the lighter vibration strength from the stock kernel. I'm running stock + r23.

Oh no. Stuttering after playing MC4 for about 2 minutes.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
Discharge your phone completely (til it turns itself off) and charge it to 100% without turning it on. Then boot it and the battery readings should be accurate. At in the beginning… I had a problem that my battery was dropping from 20% to 0 in 2–3 min and after doing that it's reading properly.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] 3dupunk:
I have tried running all 4 cores constant at 702 and I find it more laggy....a lot more stutters than 2 cores running @ 1188 which I found interesting. Didn't really evaluate battery drain though, perhaps I will give it another go tomorrow. The lag was just too annoying.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Lamerlengo:
yes and it seems to work fine...

I'm thinking about a thing: I live in an old house with old electric system (at least 1 century old). My mother as an iphone 5 and her charger suddendly broke days ago...when the iphone was on charge it still made that sound (that one when you put the device on charge) repeatedly, till she changes the wire and now it works fine.

could me problem is her's problem? have I to burn the house down?

Hey guys,

I know that the OP specifically states that it's not allowed to talk about touch control, but I was just wondering if it works for anyone on r163. I'm simply asking so please don't flame :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] gurulbn:
You're the man! Thx!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Lamerlengo:
yeah but sadly I haven't any micro-usb cable :crying:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] zellleonhart:
It works beautifully. Basically touch control will work in every new release of Franco kernel due to the module stuff (I don't really understand but this is what I guess).

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] roilosh11:
Hmm.. I'll do a clean install and maybe then it would work. Thanks for the answer! :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] cpanos:
Same here, I have reported this earlier, it occurs occasionally and a reboot fixes it and phone charges.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Lamerlengo:
so when your device is plugged it's at 100, you unplug it and it's lower than 100?

just a reboot and it fixes?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] cpanos:
No, unplugging and its still 100. Reboot and all works OK.

I think this issue maybe caused when switching between different charging methods, but I need to do some testing first.

Hows the production build of FKU been working for all of you? Sorry if some of you might've got a FC after updating from v10.0.5, but Eclipse ****ed up the build, again and some users couldn't even open the app. I pushed a small update which should fix that. Although I suggest a app data clean for better usage as a lot changed in between and a clean slate is the best.

The production FKU is working well - it has addressed an FC issue that I was consistently having on the Settings menu. I have not fully configured my per app settings yet but I expect to have it configured in the next day or so. Thank you very much for building the app - took some time and tweaks but definitely worth it.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ChrisCG:
FKU update is awesome.

Now we have the per app settings - the concept seems obvious.

Would a Max off screen frequency make sense?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nachordez:
I can confirm a previously reported bug (but very little one) an app, also in new release. When you change fast between tabs in power modes, it FCs. You have to do two fast swipes without waiting animation to finish for that (1-2-3 or going back 1-2-1, for ex.)

But you can leave it as it is by now, 'cause is not important, and enjoy your holidays ;)

Can somebody please explain me the values in Governor Settings? I tried to search in thread but could'nt find an answer even though I rember many people answering it in the past :( Would be very thankful :) The values I mean are: above_hispeed_delay / hispeed_freq / min_sample_time / timer_rate ^^

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] strainhunter:
above_highspeed_delay is the time the device spends on a specific frequency before ramping up further.

highspeed_freq is like a middle step the device switches to before switching to max_frequency

For the other values you could use something I heard of. It's cool. You just type the word you wanna know something about and press search. I think it's called "Google" or so, not sure ;)

what's this 'hotplug high load threshold' setting used for under 'per-app power modes' ?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] 3dupunk:
Basically, it's the point where the other 2 cores come out to play. Setting the value to 0 means that all 4 cores will be running all the time. Setting it to 50 means that when it reaches that threshold the other cores will come online to assist with the load.

Hello, have already searched, but couldn't find what I was after. Is their a link that explains the various settings in the kernel app, in terms of what the various settings all do, etc. For example high load threshold, dynamic scalling.

I just noticed something with the fKu app. When I change the governor then back out of the app then return to the app it shows interactive governor. Is there any way to verify whether or not the governor was changed?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ajm786:
I hate asking questions in a thread like this, but I have to because I haven't found a definitive answer through all my Google and XDA searches. Yes, I searched this thread and XDA extensively, so pardon me for asking. :)

I just bought a Nexus 4, and am trying to determine whether or not I'll have to worry about the touch sensitivity delay issue with these phones. It's the infamous delay when pinching to zoom.

I searched this thread, and found a post where franco mentioned that rev11 is better than rev10.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=42571078&highlight=touch+sensitivity#post42571078

Of course, I'm expecting that I receive either a rev11 or 12 (maybe higher). If so, does this mean that if I use franco's kernel, I don't have to use any screen sensitivity mods? Does franco's kernel definitively have anything built into it that purposely improves/fixes touch sensitivity issues when zooming or otherwise that precludes me from having to resort to other mods which I'd rather not do?

Thanks for shedding any light on this for me.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jimbohurt:
I have zero issues on my one month old nexus 4 but if you happen too you could always raise the input boost freq so that more GHz bust on when you touch/zoom.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
If you're feeling adventurous, you could search for the screen sensitivity tunables and tune it further yourself. And just btw the issue you're describing could be solved in the app, 100% sure. Don't know if it's something bad with the app's code or just some apps are bringing out a hardware issue, but it's a fact that it's not there on some apps.

Weird, i don't think that's normal mines doing it also, i installed set cpu along side franco ap to see if it was actually sticking and it wasn't then all of a sudden it was. I think something is wrong there
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ajm786:
Thanks for the answer. So we are certain that it's the app, and not the hardware? All my research seemed to point that it was global, except the fact that Firefox (at that time) was notorious for NOT having the issue, thus leading everyone to surmise that it was in fact a software and not a hardware issue.

As long as everything seems to be much better now, I'll be good. Thanks again for the input!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
As I said, it could be a hardware issue, brought up only in some cases. But it's not global. Try for instance opening a photosphere: before tapping the small globe in the centre of the screen, you view it as a normal photo and the touch lag is there; when you go "in" the photosphere by tapping the globe and pan around, try to zoom and you'll see the non-laggy behaviour.

PS: I'm using the 4.3 gallery/camera app, so not sure if that's the same with the 4.2 one.

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
I've heard about this lag in pinch to zoom but for some reason I've never noticed it, and I've had my N4 for seven months now, used a One X (AT&T), Galaxy S2 and Note 2 over the past months for short periods of time and never noticed differences, guess cause I was just casually using them, used their browsers a lot btw.

There were also numerous reports of strange issues that are uncommon on XDA by members about their N4's so I think people who notice are really OCD or something.

Latest fKU update and r163 are running amazing, went back to stock ROM cause I got tired of all the mods and I'm very pleased, don't really miss anything
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] albundy2010:
Its still there. That's all the really matters.

The cause I am not sure. But if for some reason if the pinch to zoom thing is your thing to obsess about that don't get the nexus 4.

In developer options when you turn on the show touches and tracking it all looks normal. But most apps it's there if you pinch out with your fingers starting next to each other. Even as the other poster said it does it in the gallery but not when a photosphere is loaded

Franco Kernel Features

Hey Guys,

im new on the N4 since 2 days and read some pages on Faux Kernel and here on Franco's Thread.

But ive not found any feature List about this Kernel:confused:

If i only flash the Kernel without modifiing anything what i have for differences compare to stock Kernel?

The main Reason for me to flashing this Kernel is mainly to calibrate the Display. Comparing with my S3 the colors are really pallid.
