Running r62 i UV -100 all the freqs except 1026 and i forgot to reset it to charge overnight. I woke up around 5am and my phone was hot. It had frozen and all i saw was the charging screen. It would boot back up anymore after it cooled. Turns out the battery was dead. I recharged and booted up.

This is on a clean install of the Jan 27th build of AOKP. Also, WiFi on 99% of the time, sync off, all background data turned off in apps (facebook/google+). GPS on with weather updating every 2 hours. Auto brightness too. It is pretty light use, Web browsing and XDA reading mostly. Despite that, I have had similar usage in the past, but never hit the 6 hour mark.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jkoljo:
Yep, and cpu governors (some of them) can be configured to ignore nice load, so the device will not ramp up frequencies if there is only nice load.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] biffsmash:
CM do not advocate using none stock kernels, so you're wrong they aren't written for CM.

The kernels are made to work with the NEXUS 4… not Cm. Cm ROMs are ok but they aren't.the be all and end all and are the last place I ever look for a useful and stable ROM.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] noneabove:
Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r53

They ask that you don't use non stock kernel because they have made specific changes to the kernel that directly affect cyanogenmod features, so they don't want to get errors from that. This kernel DOES work on cyanogenmod, it might just break small behind the scene optimizations. Also, I would like to say that even though I'm running AOKP, cyanogenmod is one of the best teams of developers out there and their ROMs are top notch. I just wanted different features/customizations

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] MWBehr:
Sooooo......enough of the off topic conversation?

Thanks

Even though the app is "free", circumventing the owner's requirements for you to download it would still be considered "warez" by XDA. Registration isn't a big deal though, and the app is indeed very interesting. It will show you frequency by core as an overlay while you run various apps, graph your data, "auto run" an app to test it for cpu load. Not a bad tool in general.

It supposedly turns to a single core on screen off no matter what so.. By that I would guess first boot, 4 cores, screen off, 1 core, screen on, 2

Truly sorry it messed your phone up, seems very strange that I can flash it with franco's app and have no problems what so ever!

If you turn your screen off the cpu goes into deep sleep where no cores are online.

Just FYI, I'm on r61 and have enabled USB fast charging in Franco Kernel app. It definately works fast charging my Nexus 4 from an USB Port of my DELL notebook, which itself is inside a DELL Docking Station. This way it charges at the same fast speed like with stock charger plugged into wall socket. Also I can access the Nexus 4 Internal Storage from this Notebook, while fast charging.

When USB fast charging is disabled in Franco Kernel app, I only get really slow trickle charging thru this USB connection to my Notebook.

So really I great benefit from Franco's app besides Kernel tuning and Color profile. :D
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ansysic:
Anyone interested in charging power can use current widget.

It displays the charging current which is on fast charge and stock charger around 800 mA.

Fast charge on USB is only fast charging, if the hardware outputs more than 500 mA (newer highend mainboards).

Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r53

Haha maybe I should've phrased my first post better, but what I was saying was that prior to flashing Franco's kernel, I hadn't been getting good battery life. Granted, half the cores were disabled with the 5+ hours screens I posted.. I didn't encounter poor performance because I don't usually play games.

I've been testing 61 today, and battery life seems good here also. To me, the UI feels smoother by a bit on 62 though. And like I had mentioned before with that kernel, gesture typing can get choppy/laggy, although it's not anywhere nearly as bad as 61 strangely enough.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] airchie:
I'm liking r62 right now.

I loved the feel of it as soon as I booted it up, it feels so smooth in almost everything.

But I felt the battery was getting used a bit more than I was used to.

So now I have UV by 100ma on every speed, capped the speed at 1026MHz, set conservative governor with cfq scheduler and everything feels just as fluid but battery is on course to last well over 5h screen time (auto brightness).

Loving the thinking behind Francos testing thus far... :)

Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r53

I just have to let it out.

I dislike r62 very much. Why? It drains my battery power like crazy! Idle/sleep time is excellent but what can you do if it's off.

I have undervolted all frequencies to -100mV. I presume it would deliver some great battery life. But those two ongoing cores is a battery hog.

One thing I really liked is the smoothness it had. It was amazingly fast in terms on swiping the screen, scrolling through the menu, browsing and gaming.

For those of you who had great battery life with r62, I envy you all. Lol.

R32 and R53 are my favorite builds yet!

Edit: Now that I see your screenshots I can get an idea of what to expect with 62. Going by the screen on time and not the hours of continuous battery, I personally would go for 61. I like being able to use all my cores. But I guess for android it is easier to deal with dual core than quadcore so maybe having two cores activated and the other two only when there is a lot of workload does not see a bad idea.
