The delay that you are experiencing is hit and miss - it depends on the router. Some perform better than others and there are workarounds (to some degree of success). Since this is our first experience with the attempt to address the wifi issue, there is still much to learn. Even LG and Google do not have it fully sorted out. Enjoy the kernel with the battery and gamma enhancements - the wifi issues will hopefully be addressed at a later date.

I've been on wifi the whole day and now that I'm data, it's taking forever to get google services connection and data is real slow. Going to reflash to see if it helps.

Also something weird on the kernel is that my SOT isn't recorded properly. I've actually seen it go down during the day.

For me it's crazy how Google failed

I had a Galaxy Nexus with a similar issue . So from android 4.0.4 till android 4.2 that was an issue , Screen off no notifications.

It drove me nuts . But that got fixed after a long long time of course.

And some people had the issue . Some didn't . Now I;m on the new and "improved" N4 and the same .

God :p So yeah would love to enjoy it but seriously I don't . Can't get it . Many people have this issue and we are lucky we can find a fix on XDA but many people who have no clue about all this stuff will have a malfunctioning device .

Sorry for the moaning :cowboy:

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] BlueHawk:
I don't know. I've been reading the logs and a few people think the problem is with the ARP offload implementation. So I tried switching everything else back and just enabling ARP offload. Not that I think I had the problem with either the work or the home network - we've got CISCO dual-band APs at work, and I've got the ASUS dual-band RT-N66U at home - so it might also be with the router protocols.

In any case, I set sleep to 30 seconds on the phone. After 15 minutes of screen off, still streaming through TuneIn. Just sent an email to my gmail account and the phone acknowledged the receipt as well.

I put gEnableSuspend to 2, McastBcastFilter to 3 and hostArpOffload to 1. With no streaming, drain seems to be very minimal - like flat-lining nearly after an hour. But still playing with this. With the original suggested changes to McastBcastFilter, I seemed to be getting 2 to 3% drop per hour, in idle.

Also, Google and LG have little control over this issue. Qualcomm made the WiFi device and they are the ones resourcing or not resourcing fix work. Hopefully they will come up with a general fix - hopefully it is not a chip level problem.

Upgraded to r97 last night after 2 hours off being charged. Great battery life so far. Almost 5 hours of SOT out of 20 total. Using 3G data, only 30 mins of WiFi. Switched to interactive along the way, it scales down frequencies faster.

I saw some people get 28 degrees for doing basic things a couple pages back. Maybe its just the app I'm using(android tuner) or my climate.

Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r97

Hi, first of all I want to apologize if something I say has been said before (I'm about 120 posts behind).

OK now, after almost 24 hours after flashing r97 I can say that I love how my phone feels, absolutely no lag at all, any app and/or game runs smooth, also last night my phone was about 75% before sleep, and woke up with 73%, this was with 3G data off and everything else on (WiFi, sync, etc.). Today after work had about 14% before recharnging. Almost 18 hours is great for me. But I did notice that my on screen time was ~2.5 hrs, when I have been able to get 4.5 on a regular day.

I really can't wait for the next updates (kernel &app). Great work franco.!!!

Re: [KERNEL][GPL][N4] franco.Kernel - r97

I had a weird bug right now, but I'm not sure where to post it. What happened was that last night I tried to install LBE privacy guide, and when I started the app the screen went black (as in it was still on, but only showing black). So i pressed the power button and the whole system seemed to do a "refresh", as it loaded back in every element one by one. I deleted that app straight away and assumed that would solve it, then I went to bed. When I woke up I noticed that the screen was on. I wasn't able to turn off the screen by pressing the power button, but long pressing it worked.

So i rebooted my phone, and as soon as it booted up I pressed the power button again to check if it worked. This time, it rebooted itself (kernel panic), but when it was done booting up everything worked.

I'm ashamed to say this, but yes, I UV-ed, since I haven't had any problem with that earlier. If it's not kernel related then just disregard this post.

Any temperature in the 30ºC to 40ºC range is pretty normal for any device. We're talking about CPU temperature, not battery, which are completely different things. 10% in 15 minutes seems to me that it is a pretty whacked battery cycle more than anything.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] itsaizy:
r97 works well after these edits "change McastBcastFilter to 0 and hostArpOffload from 0 to 1"

I am just worried about the battery right now.

Also, it would be great if you publish a Recommended Settings for all the values in Franco Kernel Updater app for non-tech guys like me (long for noobs). I understand every one has a different range and set up to try out. Lets just say, publish whats your setting values.

When CPU freq and governor are understandable, there are few values which are too hard for me. Like CPU Voltage, custom kernel values etc.

Any help is duly appreciated.

---------- Post added at 03:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ----------

Am sorry If I confused you. What I did was this.

Installed r97 (found wifi issues)

Ran script to change these values (change McastBcastFilter to 0 and hostArpOffload from 0 to 1)

Now Wifi issue fixed but worried about Battery as the wifi seems to be ON thruout. The extent of what the script does to the phone is beyong my imagination. I dont want to go to stock kernel. I want to keep using yours without the notification delays.

Cheers.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I plan to add a small tuturial in the app in the not so distant future but my kernel already comes configured by myself, you can just flash and forget.

I think this patch from qualcomm helps some users, but it still doesn't fix it for some others. The only reasonable fix is to disable multicast filter and you'll get all the notifications, but your battery will be raped specially if you're in a noisy network place. So you don't have much choice here. Use that script = notifications work great + battery rape. Don't use that script = notifications won't work sometimes (Screen off ofc) + no battery rape. You're the one that can choose that, not me ;)

My experience is very different. With r96 and earlier kernels, I only had to change McastBcastFilter to 0 (leaving hostArpOffload as default 0) to keep wifi working with screen off. With r97, I also set hostArpOffload to 1, and now my "screen off" wifi is broken again. Tonight (when I'm back in range of my home wifi), I'll try setting hostArpOffload back to 0 to see if that's the cause (rather than r97 being at fault, which I doubt).

If you use an OpenWRT router, you can fix the ARP issues by installing the net-tools-arp package and assigning a static ARP to your Nexus 4's MAC and (static) IP.

Just add the command in your rc.local, reboot and you're good to go (e.g. arp -s 192.168.1.230 10:61:32:43:3b:2b).

At least fixes the issue on my home network...

Presumably you have ticked 'Set on boot'? Or otherwise it would return to kernel defaults. I haven't tried it since I'm happy on conservative and rarely reboot.

Franco, I'm experiencing a weird battery drain when playing Google Music over bluetooth in my car. When I step into my car in the morning the phone comes from fully charged (straight off the charger), and 30 minutes later I've lost 7-8% of my battery.

I would normally say this is the app's fault, but on all previous versions of this kernel the app behaves just fine. On previous versions, with the screen off streaming to Bluetooth, the CPU stays at about 384-486 MHz (which results in about a 3-4% battery drain for 30 minutes instead). With the latest version(s), the CPU is sitting at around 1.03-1.19 GHz, just for streaming music (even with the screen off). Any idea why this would happen?
