Hey, I have a little problem, not sure if kernel related or not.

Whenever there is an internet connection available, 'OS Android' starts to keep the device awake, which I could live with since it's not causing any major battery drain (at least I haven't noticed), but what I can't live with is the fact that it also uses data (used 7 MB since yesterday which is kind of big deal if you're on a 50MB/week data plan :D)

Any ideas what could be behind this? I'm uninstalling apps one by one to see if any of them causes this but I have had no luck so far. Thanks
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Redneck Trash:
Data is being used over an internet connection!?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Bobtehblob:

This is just a guess from reading every page in this thread but, do u and your wife share a gmail address? If not and u only payed for the app once with your account its not going to work on hers. If this isnt the case i dont no. Sorry
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] TheKaptone:
She bought the app herself so we both bought it. It has worked before but now doesn't after the update. I tried charting app data and restart but it still doors nothing

She is currently on milestone 3 but I was going to try the latest nightly
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Redneck Trash:
Is her device logged in under her gmail address?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Ok try this, uninstall the app, reboot. Go to data/data look for francos app there, it shouldn't be, if it is delete it reboot reinstall from market

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
As someone said subjective tests are not good enough for a general consensus. And for proper calculation for the battery drain in different scenarios, is missing some information about the chip. I miss an app I had on an old Symbian Nokia that showed the el. consumption real time, with a graph…

Got it sorted now. After the suggestion of granting permission again I noticed that she has disabled superuser which of course did not show the kernel app to work

She was not sure what SU did so she disabled it

Dude, xda developer would've develop something else than kernel if kernel is not developed/researched for better battery cycle, performance and others.

and yeah, that bold quote.. it's like blind people talking to a mirror. :p
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] hamad138:
Im sure 4 cores is much more battery effecient than 2 cores, wasnt it explained by a dev that actually 2 cores decrease battery life?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] pkelly517:
I don't think that's correct.

I only paid foot the app once back in my early GNex days. I've had it installed and working on that phone and my N4 at the same time. And is now installed and working on the N4 and my new N10.

If the device is associated with the gmail account, it should just work.

what's the best rom can work perfectly with this Kernal ?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] danielvc:
It's a Nexus. Flash any rom you want with this kernel. I can recommend stock/Minco.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Dolphin87:
thanks

usually people chose Kernels works with their roms , I m doing it the other way around . :cyclops:

that's why i was confused to chose what rom
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] gravitysandwich:
Whoops! My bad, that was probably about the 4 cores at 702MHz uses as much battery as 2 cores at 1512MHz or something in that way(maybe it was 2 cores at 1188 is the same battery and efficiency as 4 cores at the 594MHz step, but I don't remember). Don't quite remember franco's opinion on that topic:)

Sorry thought you were talking about about something else. Lol. Should read thoroughly next time, because this thread is HUGE (4000+ pages) and its hard to keep up.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] cAase:
My phone absolutely hate 4 cores at 702mhz and 0%. Lags pretty much for me. I guess i'll stick with my default settings! :D
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] 3dupunk:
Same here! My n4 is much more smoother running 2 cores @ 1180 than running all 4 cores @ 702.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Imppy:
How do you run two cores only?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ELB27:
Set hotplug high load threshold to 100%
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Yep , that's what i was saying , u can install over and over agn with same account, but if u were to buy it with one account then say u used TB to try install on another account it wouldn't work.

---------- Post added at 08:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:22 AM ----------

? Setting to 9 or 0 will not make it two cores, it will make it use 4 more often.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] vandrix:
Quad core CPU good at multitasking compare to two core CPU. Some apps maybe faster and smoother with only 2 core, but i don't want to loose multitasking ability on my nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ELB27:
Edited, my bad, typo :rolleyes:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Try setting high load to 100.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Redneck Trash:
Runs two cores by default. High load threshold determines when four cores are used. The default is 70 meaning when the load reaches 70% all cores will be active.

Imo, AOKP, been using it for a year almost now on this phone been flawless no bull**** issues like some roms http://goo.im/devs/Whitehawkx/mako
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] limeaide:
I would be lying if I said that. I do know what I have seen Francisco post. He has told people multiple times dont worry about those things and enjoy the phone. If you claim to have read every single post you should have seen him post it multiple times.

I did not say he did not develop it for better battery and performance. Im saying he has stated people need to stop worrying about those things and enjoy the phone. That is also why he removed the ability to check wakelocks. There was dozens of posts regarding stupid wakelocks and he was tired of dealing with the nit pickers.

Hi Franco!

163 has been flawless Franco, not one issue with it and AOKP, battery, data, speed, smooth, everything is there!

Thanks for your time!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] lorolouis:
Agree 100% !

I can say absolutely the same for r122, too.

For me, there are 2 different but really good releases, I call them "Versions" for N4:

r122 = FK v1.0

r163 = FK v2.0

You can call them as you want, try everything in between, blame me, paste codes, SOT and other bul****

or flash the fancier-labelled M's all is your choice.

Regards.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Shano56:
Show me a dual core N4, then your argument will be valid. Until then, its null. There are many other appealing aspects of the N4 than four cores (price, AOSP updates, etc)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] cramu:
Is there any way to automatically change kernel settings when battery is low?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Spiralzz:
You could use Tasker app.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] cramu:
That would be the best solution.

Unfortunately FKU does not integrate with tasker.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] JeffyLube0:
It's not an "argument" as you say. Rather, it was a question. I just wanted to know what is the benefit of keeping it at 2 cores. Please take your snide comments elsewhere. :eek:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Shano56:
To me, asking "what's the point of having only 2 cores on a quad core phone" seemed like a rhetorical question, I didn't know you were expecting an actual answer. One of the disadvantages of text only communication. I didn't mean for my reply to sound snide. The point is for less power consumption, at least in theory. Some people don't need 4 cores, but still like other things the N4 has to offer
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] JeffyLube0:
Understood.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] pkelly517:
It can, but it's not a 'drop in' replacement.

You can have Tasker write to the kernel paths, or create a file to run which includes all the kernel path changes at once.

Hey Francisco. Happy New Year! (which is in about 10 hours or so for you?)

Just a quick head's up... I read your changelog for r23 and wasn't sure if part of it corresponded with problems I was having with interactive governor settings.

Just to keep you updated. I have tested the same settings as I mentioned to you previous (whereas you sent the log to Todd) - and I'm still experiencing the same random reboots.

If you would like another log, just let know and I'll get one for you.

above_hispeed_delay: 10000

timer_rate: 10000

Either one of these set to 10000 will cause the reboots.

Many thanks amd I hope that you have an amazing New Year. Your kernel is as wonderful as always. I'm glad to be spending my New Year with such an amazing device in my hand. :good:

I sent Todd logs for that bug, but he hasn't replied to me yet, he should be enjoying the holidays at the moment. The patch I merged wasn't targeted for that, it was to prevent a kernel panic while using interactive and cpus being hotplugged.

Best battery life I've gotten thus far on my Nexus 4.

ROM: Xylon 12.29

Kernel: franco r23, interactive scheduler, ROW I/O governer

Settings: Stock Brightness, Wifi Enabled, Bluetooth Disabled, NFC Enabled, stock settings except I disabled automatic location updates in Latitute

Usage: Constant browsing with the AOSP Browser, Flipbook, Currents, and Tapatalk

I restarted once, and lost 17 minutes of screentime from the count for some reason. So, it's actually closer to 5 hours and 20 minutes of screen-on time.

I found the default auto brightness settings little too bright squeeze out more screen on time. I have been on Wi-Fi all day mind you except community back and forth from work, and here are my recommendations:

This is with four messengers running (Facebook messenger, kakaotalk, whatsapp, hangouts), auto sync on, network location services on, and Google now on. Maps location reporting off. CM 10.1.2. FK r163. UV -100mv. Interactive governor makes phone sufficiently snappy while being at 1.2 Ghz, but I have it go to 1.5 when I play crazy taxi. Also I found battery life to massively improve after couple days/cycles. So even if you're on nightly builds, try flashing every three days or so.

Thank-you.. I tried using lux for few days, but didn't find any improvement. So I un installed it. I am using cm10.1.2 stable build with Franco's latest default recommendations, except the governor using on demand. May be I will try your settings with lux once again.

The theme is called "Simplex". I think a free version is available in our xda forums somewhere. However, it is available as paid version on Google Play Store.

To change your auto brightness range and values, hop over to Settings, Display, then Brightness. Select Adjust. Depending on your usual environment, you can adjust and create different steps, and their respective intensity values. I just decreased my values by 2% across and see if it affects my experience tomorrow. Maybe it's just my eyes or my display panel, but the brightness increase is not uniform lol. Therefore, my values may not work for all you guys.

Anyone?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ben_pyett:
You say charging over night and phone turned off? Do you mean that?

In such case I'd say that no kernel ISN'T being used as phone is not booted and ultimately is just a brick. A cold slab of non operative hardware.

I use a timer switch on the socket itself, so that the phone doesn't charge all night, only for the few hours needed to reach 100%, it doesn't then waste electricity unnecessarily or charge the phone excessively.

Edit is to isn't typo
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Gokh:
What i mean is when i use FK, the phone is very hot even when its at 100%, like its still charging. With stock kernel, the phone is cold, like its stop charging, if you know what i mean :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratosk:
This is not true.

If you connect your charger when your phone is powered off, the device and the kernel will boot.

Kernel will (usually) select powersave governor, will display the charging animation and control the USB charging.

When the battery is full, kernel will stop charging.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ben_pyett:
my bad <hangs head in shame>, I stand corrected.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratosk:
No need to be shame. :)

We all live to learn. Nobody knows everything. :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ben_pyett:
indeed, although was a tongue in cheek comment :D....not yet found an emoticon for that one...Cheers
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
In concurrence with the phone being hot when charging while the phone is off, I had a similar experience. I even reported it a fee months back and franco answered it wasn't caused by the kernel. I never tried charging while phone is off after that because that alone cannot negate the advantages of this kernel. Though at this time, it made me wonder once again.. what's the reason behind the heating issue.
