Do i have to change something in Franco Kernel Updater settings if I use BEATS+XLOUDER?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] amarb70:
Not necessarily, you can if you want, change the values of the headset gain and volume boost in the app; if you would like for to be even 'louder', but apart from that, there's nothing else i can see to change in his app :)

I can't thank you enough Franco :). For 90% of the battery my N4 lasted 24 hours with 5 hours of screen on. Activities include web browsing with Chrome, a lot of Whatsapp, 30 minutes of Youtube, 1.5 hours of music, a little gaming etc.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] gallardo5:
Just raise every frequency by 25mV, no need to totaly remove uv;) if it wouldn't work, raise it again and see if it fixes your problem
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Curtis7990:
Try CM, is more battery friendly :D

move the thermal to 90 degrees and high loda to 60. and the scores Will be higher than m2.

[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] i have a little report for you: with you kernel in the first battery charge the phone is so smooth and the battery lasts longer 4 or 4.5 SOT. but in subsequent cycles the phone feels a bit laggy and the battery drain faster.

I'm also waiting for an option in fku to restore the default gpu gov, seems that in 3d I have lose a bit I'm performance with simple gov.

Umm is conservative governor just like power save because I want a power saving governor
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] kokwei:
I'm on m3 but when I checked the default gpu governor settings in Trickster it shows Performance and the other option is OnDemand. Is Simple supposed to be there as well?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] snak3ater:
Nothing is wrong with the kernel itself.It's the Trickster which is not having that option..Try the latest Trickster & see if it works
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nitrouzoxide:
Using CM 10.1 stable and franco M3…

Looking good so far… using beastly battery power mode, but increase max frequency to 1512 MHz…UV by -125…here's my battery life so far…
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] fozzie:
Or use the app that was specifically designed for this kernel ;)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] mangomonkey00:
i have cm10.1 stable and froanco kernel m3 everything as it is unchanged totally stock no overclock undervolt or anything

i'm getting a sot of 3 hrs i just watch video mostly took some photos and a few minutes of gaming i have seen people having 4hrs+ sot

do i have to do some setting to obtain that please help
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] diogoperas:
I definitely feel my phone slower with M3 than on r666 which was the best for me.

Microstuttering almost everywhere :(
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Krunk83:
Where's the screen shot of your SOT? It's hard to tell what is causing the battery to not give you results like others, but over time I have realized that a lot of these people that get 5hrs SOT leave their phone on 0% brightness and just leave the screen on. Using apps like games and video are obviously going to eat battery more so than just an app that has text. I have also learned that greenify is the bomb. I have greenified facebook, maps, dolphin browser and jetpack, as well as turn all of my location services off in maps and my battery has improved 10 fold. I've learned a lot from the people in this thread especially. With my current set up, I can go a full day on wifi and have 75% of the battery left(I'm over checking the SOT). That's great for me because I can still use the phone normally and get great battery life. While I'm on data, I don't get nearly as good as wifi but that is to be expected. But it's still a very acceptable number.

Hope that helps. :good:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Stretlow:
I keep flashing the new releases and while the battery seems better, the perfromance on 148 is miles better, hardly any micro lag. M3 lags like hell in Falcon Pro and a little in Simpsons tapped out get neither on 148.

Still the best kernel though :good:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] diogoperas:
The main difference for me is Tapatalk and Facebook. Ok I get that they are poorly made apps with flaws everywhere, but they definitely felt faster on r666.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] mangomonkey00:
its not that i'm not happy with battery life surely its better i have charged my phone now and again i'm seeing it

now phone is at 60% with 2.5hrs of use and 2hrs of sot mostly while watching video and calibrating screen

thanks for advice i was just hoping if i can get more of battery

[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] is there any way to disable the integrated hotplug driver?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] gravitysandwich:
No.

Franco, this is the second time this happened, but I left my phone charging overnight. So I just woke up a couple minutes ago, and I looked at the temps, and it was 65°C for CPU and 55°C for battery. The only problem is that it turned on at 53%. So do you think my pins are ****ed up in my phone. (BTW this is the second time it happened, but the first time it happened, it booted to 99%.)

I'm just so confused because it should've turned the CPU off and leave the battery cool when it was done charging, and charge it to 100% but somehow someway it left the battery hot and the CPU running, cause how the hell does it get that hot. And do you think it would mess up my battery?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nachordez:
I suppose you have yet checked it was not a rogue app running heavily in background (or using compulsively GPS), haven't you?

GT-P5110 / PAC / Dohllmen / V4A
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] gravitysandwich:
My phone was off while charging. And no I don't have any crazy wakelocks. I never use gps. And when the phone charges it leaves the CPU on so wakelocks are useless (correct me if I'm wrong). But it just stopped charging randomly when the phone was off and the battery/CPU temps was beyond what I get from normal sleep/overnight charging. The back of my phone was hot as hell hell. Oh forgot one important thing: the first time this happened I was using some polish Samsung charger. But this time I used stock charger since I'm back in America.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Zadeis:
Hmm that's interesting... Something similar happened to me last night. I was using the charger from my galaxy nexus and had my phone on as an alarm clock only to wake up to see it off. Lucky I got up before hand to see and wasn't late anywhere. Never happened before. Must have overheated when I was sleeping.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nachordez:
Of course, if it was off, no wake locks. But also no kernel problem, then.

Have you searched in General section, for if it's a known bug? It's weird, that's true

Nexus4 / Stock / Franco / V4A

GT-P5110 / PAC / Dohllmen / V4A
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] gravitysandwich:
Yea, I hope someone might know what's happening, and I can't really provide logs (phone was off) and I have one more thing to say, the first time this happened, I woke up and I moved the USB cable around a little (phone off) and it just started charging again (showed the charging animation) but the phone was hot. So i dunno what happened. So I'm assuming my pins are messed up, as in the phone CPU was on overnight but the phone didn't charge because i dont ****ing know. And could the CPU make the battery heat up to 55° C if the CPU was around 60°C. I really don't think it would so I have no clue why this would heat up my phone. Sorry if I'm being paranoid about this, but I don't like the feeling of having your battery and CPU at hot temperatures while not charging at all with the phone off and plugged in.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] tlf55:
Is that normal that i have 2 core constantly online ? i'm with the lastest M3 ..
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Zadeis:
Well it only happened because I used the Samsung charger. So I think its the charger more so than anything.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Testraindrop:
No?:eek:

Changelog M3:

There are only two states while the screen is on: dual-core under normal operations such as UI interaction and light apps; quad-core under major device stress such as games.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Marcb:
I assume this new dual core mode is impacting on benchmarks aswell?

I got 13649 with Antutu 3.3.1 using M3...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yukarundeng:
Got them, and even in lower digits like 10000, since 15- something, thought it was only me
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Testraindrop:
Nope got 21135 on M3, but who cares about Benchmarks anyway...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] gravitysandwich:
It happened on both chargers. Stock and Samsung. So now I'm clueless. Because first time it was on the Samsung one. But that was a week ago. Now I charged it again overnight with stock and I get the same result
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] igalmarino:
I had been sick at home for the last couple of days. Here I use WiFi all the time and 3g signal is very good. Normally i get 3h SOT but this days I had been getting like 5h SOT.

Conclusion ? Your phone's battery life is affected by a lot of different factors. Not only kernel/ROM/Apps configuration.

So don't worry and be happy ;)

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Zadeis:
Ah that interesting then. While I don't think it is the kernel I can't exactly rule it out either. I also don't know if it over heated in my case. Since when I touched my phone when I woke up it felt fine.

So who knows what the problem could be...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Guys a milestone is a stable Kernel version aimed for a good balance between performance and battery. If you're not happy with either of them you can change to whatever settings you want, thats why I waste time giving you options. Other than that, I dont give a **** because I know M3 works out of the box its just flash and forget.

Kinda off topic .... But interesting .... I installed android 4.3 on my gs4 and did some GPU tests on 3dmark ....

Android 4.3 was 3-4 fps higher in the GPU tests and overall had a better score than the touchwiz software
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
Sometimes but not most times. Franco's using his own hotplug logic which is customized for general usage, not benchmarking. But he's made it customizable for the user, so if you're after benchmarking do as he said in one of his posts (you can search for it), change the settings and enjoy constant 21k+ in Antutu. In short: increase the thermal throttle threshold, lower the hotplug threshold, put performance governor on and enjoy big numbers.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] kepapas:
Yeah Fahrenheit. Does any one know how to get it not to overheat when gaming? Any special setting don't want to flash another kernel
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Testraindrop:
If you are talking about 138°C, then I'm sorry to say this, but its impossible.

If for whatever reason throttling is not working, then the phone will just shutdown on 100°C to avoid damage.

Edit: You meant F, then its even below 60°C, nothing to worry about.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] pnut22r:
PSA

What I've noticed about trickster, since it defaults to performance (even though it's actually Simple) if you make any other changes on that screen, and commit, it will change the governor to performance (confirmed through terminal emulator).

It's funny because I like the kernel completely stock, except for vibration turned down, and headphone turned up, to make these changes, it changes the governor.

Just letting others know. Shouldn't be a problem once trickster is updated.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ben_pyett:
Use Franco's own application FKU designed specifically for his kernel
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] bokagavrilov:
It's normal to heat up while gaming... The only thing I can suggest you it's to try to play in a fridge ;)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Something else got bonkers, it throttles heavily as soon as it hits around 80ºC, there is no way it can keep overheating while throttling down to 702MHz unless you were playing for a long time + charging at the same time + using gps + bluetooth + syncing **** in the background + 3G/4G...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] kepapas:
That was my problems I had it charging while playing lol GPS +bluetooth + syncing + lte Lol my fault Franco lol
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
O_O theres really no throttling that'll save you. I guess I'll have to add a GPU freq throttle sometime.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] kepapas:
Fasho thanks.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Ulver:
Does the LED light still turn on when the phone reaches high temps?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ImbaWind:
I think playing heavy game while charging is not good for the phone especially the battery,in addition the radiation while charging is already quite high, if you are running heavy game while charging, then it's super high and I'm pretty sure that it's bad for health in long term lol
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Redneck Trash:
My phone gets hotter than that walking around Phoenix without any issues.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] zorginho:
I'll quote myself, I wanna just know if I'm the only one that experience lag after the first battery cycle. I think that is something wrong with hotplug, infact I see that also when the 2 cpu are at 100 percent of load it doesn't turn on the other 2 cores, but it if I change the value of high load in hotplug control in the fku it starts to work again and activate the other 2 cores on high load, but after a while it starts to not work again and only 2 cores are active all the time. hope that [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] reads that.

With touch boost at 702 mhz

And this is how is going until now:

Till now for SMS/whatsapp/tapatalk/webbrosing/9gaging/facebook/etc seems smooth, not like when I was 300-1000 with input at 1000 but I think for me is a good performance/battery mode to use the nexus, oh and forgot to say that I have UV at -100.

Thank you very much for per app setting Franco is really fun test this feature :)
