Well the thing is that those who reported no problems are using MP3, but those who reported problems are using other formats like AAC/FLAC which gives better quality than MP3 on the same bitrate.

Yes, deep sleep is important, I agree on that, but at the same time, it shouldn't be at the cost of performance including stuttering no? Is there no other solution to this problem? Maybe an option to turn on some sort of thing where the phone doesn't try to go into deep sleep during music playback? I tried force wakelock on PowerAMP but that didn't seem to fix the problem...

I have tested this my self using Flac and I don't seem to have any issues. I ran at stock settings for 5 songs around 30 minutes with no problems, I ran it with the CPU capped at 1242mhz for another 5 songs with no issues. I would look into other apps causing the issues. Maybe something else is running like Viper or something else running in the background?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] n0thing2bdone:
I couldn't listen to mp3 podcasts (stutter /cutouts) via doggcatcher with screen off on 194 stock odex clean. Had to keep screen on. Reverted to stock.

Mentioning to say it's not just other file formats. Maybe someone knows something about how that app works (different libraries?) and can help track this down.

I have this issue with all kernels. It's very annoing.

25k timer is worse than 30k

The timer as franco told should be a 10k multiple.

If u need to increase perfs decrease the timer to 20k.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Luigiesin:
Awesome... Just did... Still have the notification bar lag.... Haven't been able to get rid of it since the last 4 or 5 builds of JB4.3
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] CoolApps:
So does that mean that GTA VC doesn't work since r196? O.o

having a little bit of issue with r196....:(

wifi is dropping...again have to reconnect to the network....

sometimes mobile data is also dropping (2g /3g)

if the phone is in deep sleep and you get a call...screen turns on after 2 seconds
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] zorginho:
Your lag is in lockscreen? If yes u have tu enable lockscreen widgets to get rid of lag.

R196 is smooth as ever on my phone ;) stock + franco is more than enough for me seriously.

I do notice that there are stutters when listening to flac but not a single problem with mp3. Not something that bothers me though since most of my collections are in mp3 format.

All in all, thanks franco! Great job! :D

Squeezing more and more battery juice from my nexus 4 blessed with Franco r196 and PSX v2.

how to set color profiles on BOOT in franco kernel updater(paid). I tried by long pressing but not working..
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sordna:
Go to gamma or rgb and turn the switch on.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Hanny:
It happened to me on default settings but not anymore since r195, thats why some settings in my sig are crossed out

simply increase the input boost freq under gov control to 1242000, use for a while, if it still doesnt satisfy you, increase to 1350000, i never needed any higher than this

and if you go this high you may like to decrease boostpulse_duration to 800000 for a 0.2 sec shorter touch boost to compensate for battery, if you dont always scroll through long lists in 1 swipe, this should still be fine.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Pushed r197:

* Fixed a small calculation bug that would make the device use higher freqs than it was needed

* Added a small hook to queue the resume/suspend functions to a separate workqueue to improve what sometimes could be a jerky screen off animation

Enjoy.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RealSlimShadyMC:
I'm sorry if it's already been asked, but Franco, can you possibly allow the "1 core on touch" thing, because setting it lower than 2 just resets it to 2.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Nope, default behavior is 2 cores online and that ain't gonna change.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] hardwareadictos:
Why you won't change it? Just for curiosity
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Because its been debated, tested, and debated and tested. Turning cores on and off is a very expensive operation and every time you would touch the display the load would be high enough so that the second core would always come online, so rather have 2 cores always online to negate the expensive effects of online/offline operations. Also the extra smoothness is also welcomed.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Giox96:
Franco, maybe it's already been said, if I have to upgrade the your kernel is recommended to flash the kernel stock and after yours kernel?

OKAY let me try this again. Ever since Android 4.3 launched, I noticed there was a 1 or 2 second lag when turning the screen on via the power button. ever since flashing Franco's kernel, I've noticed it's much improved but still noticeable. I'm assuming this is a kernel issue, but was wondering if anyone had a fully working fix?

btw, I tried to post this earlier but tapatalk mobile kept screwing me over and quoting me again and again with the same message
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] CatsAreGods:
Thanks for the new kernel. 196 caused reboots when I turned on the LED flashlight and 197 seems to have fixed that.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jokkir:
You need to turn off the screen and turn it back on for the screen color to apply after a boot. And with the switched turned on in the app
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] timvdhoorn:
If i choose a color profile does it apply automatic? Thanks
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] AJ06:
No need to flash stock kernel over again. Just flash Franco's over whatever you have right now. You might want to clear the caches though.

Then go ahead and tweak the kernel settings if you so wish, although default settings are just fine.

---------- Post added at 12:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 AM ----------

You have to Set On boot (long press I believe) and cycle the screen off/on.

I just let the screen timeout after reboots and when its back on it has the delicious colors I want.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Koraboros:
Thanks, I tried it but it didn't seem to make that much of a difference, if at all. Looking at the CPU states it seems like it stayed a lot in the 810 and 910 MHz range, and not much in 1510 MHz. I think it might be because NFS Most Wanted doesn't require constant touch control... In games like Max Payne, I see 1510 a lot more. So in the end, it might be the GPU that's throttling.
