Looks like a great update! Thanks for all your efforts. Quick question: if I am cm10 and just installed the r14, do I need to tweak or change settings anywhere to make the best out of it and have the awesome battery everyone is talking about. Or just installing the kernel is enough?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
No one can tell you that, everyone has different types of usage so depends from user to user.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ajayendra:
OK I agree, so you're saying that just installing the kernel will not benefit me? I need to change settings etc?

I said everyones taste and usage are different so that you have to find if stock options are good for you of if you need to change...

That update was great. I can instantly tell there's a difference in color and performance.... Colors are way more vibrant... Although I still miss my super AMOLED. This will suffice.

Anyone else thinks Moles' gamma settings is too dark on Auto Brightness? Looks good only at 50% brightness.

Is that working for you? Using exactly these lines in a script in init.d causes boot loops (@ the Google logo) for me since r72.

After deleting the script / commenting these lines out everything's ok.

Running the script after the phone booted is working.

Another init.d script I'm using for setting the vibration strength to 70 is working, so init.d support should be working.

---------- Post added at 07:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:04 PM ----------

OK, seems I'm not the only one with that problem.

To change the vibration strength I'm (successfully, without bootloops) running these lines:

#!/system/bin/sh

echo 70 > /sys/class/timed_output/vibrator/amp

Does anyone experience lag while scrolling in some apps like tapatalk with this kernel? Currently using r71 on stock rom, flashed right after stock kernel. It gets better with on demand governor, but interactive is set by default so I assume kernel dev want us to use interactive.

Weird thing happened when I flashed r72 using Franco's app, after the reboot it changed my wallpaper to a live wallpaper. I'm on MiNCO v6.1 and I noticed someone else reported this using v6.2, so maybe ROM related, however it had never happened to me with any previous kernel releases.

This wakelock is caused by any sound of the device, no matter if speaker or headphones. Do you have keyboard sounds enabled? These cause a lot of these locks although they're rather short. I'm struggling these wake locks since I'm on ics and above.

I don't get it! why don't they take your work and simply add it to their stock kernel. Seriously and without being biased. On r72 and the battery life is ridiculous! Your kernel is stingy when it comes to battery! Second day of normal usage and still 52% left!

The reboots / boot loop does only happen if you use an init.d script to set the gamma values (like I did).

As i said before, i must have done sthg wrong.

Flashed your kernel but decided to go back so flashed AOSP as mentioned in OP. Suddenly phone no longer boots.

It would be nice if some1 could tell me what i missed. Did i have to do a full wipe?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] tkalli:
This was posted a few pages back:

So the only thing is to get the kernel back in stock and push it through CWM (or any other), right?

Please correct any errors:

1. Download stock kernel from here:

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2024982

2. Flash it in recovery.

3. Boot into android.

4. Go from root explorer to system/lib/hw and

i) Delete power.msm8960.so

ii) Remove .fkbak extension from power.msm8960.so.fkbak so it looks like, power.msm8960.so

iii) Fix the permissions to rw-r--r--

5. Reboot

Then flash the update from recovery and install the best kernel out there again.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] visceralpsyche:
Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r72

No, of course you are free to use auto brightness as before. These settings are simply a reference point. Auto brightness may cause them to look darker than they would otherwise though, depending on the algorithm used to determine the screen brightness at any time.

Personally I hope CM10.1 brings back adjustable auto brightness values, so I can bias them properly for when I want to use the option.

But I'm finding that short of being outside in the sun, 50% screen brightness seems perfectly viewable in almost every situation.
