The install-recovery method used by superuser has been removed, and init.superuser.rc doesn't seem to call the su used by superuser.

Edit: Here's how to enable superuser:

On your rooted kernel, edit /system/build.prop and add the following line at the end:

persist.sys.root_access=3

I'm still not sure what's going on, if Franco is using an outdated method, or if superuser doesn't install itself properly. Perhaps it only ever checks for init.superuser.rc once, and if it installs without it, it forgets all about it.

Hopefully this will help someone else using superuser and trying out this kernel.

Best kernel for the Nexus 4 right now. :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] StormTrooper89:
Tapatalk is always lag for me too even on stock setting. Well maybe we had different cpu binning? Any changes you made it to make it better? Im still noob with tweaking so just share the ideas to make it better.:D

Edit: im still using my setup right after kernel update and it goes well with my phone. I will download antutu to see the fps.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] BigDig:
Didn't really tweak much.. I'm using Franco settings, I just undervolt the CPU -100, and everything is nice and smooth... My CPU binning is faster..

And I'm using stock ROM and I have flashed the bionic patch from the general thread and I think this helps a lot

I love the new 204 kernel, but since I booted it I'm seeing some weird stuff in the stock battery reporting. It shows my GPS on constantly (which it isn't) and that Yelp was using it (hasn't been running). Might be a one-time glitch but never saw this with 203 or anything else in recent memory.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] StormTrooper89:
What setting did you use? do you tweak the kernel? if yes please share with us.

Anyone that wanna post battery consumption screenshot please share your setting with other user. some user like myself still new with kernel tweaking. enjoy. :D

Here is the stock 4.4.2 kernel zip file in case any of you miss it. just flash in recovery and flash your desire kernel.

Speaking of Tapatalk. That is one of the apps that benefits tremendously from ART.

My phone is using ART while the tablet was not. Phone smooth, tablet not. Turned ART on the tablet and it's smooth.

But yeah its not pretty on davlik.

With the kernel settings can i increase the sensitivity of the mic?

Does franco r204 only supports Interactive GPU governor? In franco app, i could not find any option to change GPU governor. But in trickstermod option is there.

Can we change GPU governor to On Demand?

Thanks
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] svnhvn:
Not that much mate. Processor clock was default, default gov, GPU clock was 200, up and down threshold was default, input boost was 702k, load threshold was 0, UV-ing at 75k, autosync on, and location services off.

I'm really happy though.

Sometimes I found min frequency very high with PerAppMode. But I don't customize min freq in PerAppMode. Is this a bug?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] svnhvn:
Naaah, never happened on me bro..
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Quiglesigles:
I think Franco only uses interactive and performance governors. Don't quote me on it, but I think this is because interactive is hands down the best and most optimized for this kernel. Hopefully someone can chime in and clarify this.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Luigiesin:
I think Franco is using interactive GPU.. Don't quote me on that one but I remember him saying he was going to do it back on 4.3
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] StormTrooper89:
i dont think you need per app mode for this kind of app. per app mode specifically for heavy games.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] hardwareadictos:
It really helps with apps that dont need full power of S4 Pro, for example i use a profile for chat apps like telegram or whattsapp with maxium of 1Ghz and min of 384 for cpu and max of 128mhz for GPU, as i am chatting all day i can tell you the diference is noticeable, more cooler system and a decrease of battery

Use it for games, Video players and camera... not FB / WhatsApp...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] droid_legacy:
If I remeber right (and I think I do), there is no possibility to set `max cpu speed`. Just Minimal CPU Speed and inpoot boost frequency.

Correct me if I am wrong. :D

This would be usefull for texting appsor something common, but if you only have min cpu frequency it think it is more usefull for games.

Of course you can set a low input boost frequency lox max gpu frequency and a high hotplug load to save some power. But governor will go to the speed it needs. So not queit sure about how much this will save in the end. :)

I am sure it is caused by PerAppMode. I have never had a perappmode profile that set min freq higher than 384. See the log from SuperSU, the min freq is set to input_boost_freq. [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION]

I just compared my Nexus 4 with franco204+ Purity ROM vs my brother N4 with stock unrooted... The stock nexus completely outperforms my Nexus 4, I dont know if its because of franco kernel or purity rom. I mean my nexus 4 is fast but the stock nexus4 is faster almost like my nexus 5

But I love franco kernel features like color profiles, so please someone share a setup for franco kernel to improve the apps opening time :)

BTW thanks a lot for the great kernel

Hey [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] I'm trying to port this kernel to the Sprint LG Optimus G (which is pretty much a N4 on sprint) and I'm not able to fix the "get_cpu_idle_time" errors, regardless of what advice you have given, can you please fix it on your git? So the rest of us building from source don't need to fix it. I've worked on it along with my devices kernel dev for days, and we can't figure it out. Thanks

(sorry if I seem rude or demanding or whatever, just wondering if you can fix it or at least provide more guidance. :) )

F*ck can't attach more images f*cking tapatalk
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ErMeglio:
Hi all. Since I'm using Franco kernel I get ridiculously low battery juice and the phone gets quite warm. I tried to investigate wake lock and I found out, for example today, that msm_hsic_host took the phone awake for 4h27m out of 7h10m. I've read what is the cause, generally (3g) but I experience the same with WiFi. What's going on? How to troubleshoot this issue?

Thanks.

P. S. I don't think FK is the issue, actually, I had similar problems even before, they were perhaps just much rarer, now I get this every day!!

Crazy battery
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] hughfollett:
This wakelock is hardware related, but it's also due to the really low signal you have on 3G. To reduce it switch to 2G when you don't need a fast connection.

Inviato dal mio Nexus 4 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ErMeglio:
Thanks for your answer. That's a good point. If I check the signal, I can see it jumping from 3G to Hsdpa constantly. I can also see it is highly fluctuating effectively!! 4 bars to 1 to 0 to 3 etc every few seconds. I guess I saw the difference because I'm in a different location all day long lately (University and study areas) full of devices and interferences, too. The fact this same building has network operator's antennas on its top should have been another good hint of the fact the signal here is poor. So thanks for the input.

Main problem here is that the WiFi is blocking most of the connections (only 80/443 port, notifications rarely work), and reverting to 2G would make me go in roaming, so pay-as-you-go traffic, a big no-no. I got to check emails a lot lately (graduating shortly, so many burocracy going on), not much more on the connection, so I'll just stay 2G+WiFi and see what happens.

Thank you!!

Double tap to wake

Hello Guys, I'm a new user of the nexus 4 and I been looking for a kernel with the double tap to wake feature, did franco have it? sorry for the HORRIBLE english u.u
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] hughfollett:
The cleanest double tap to wake feature has been implemented by [MENTION=3750240]stratosk[/MENTION] in his semaphore kernel. Franco's one was still on development when the n5 came out

Inviato dal mio Nexus 4 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Bill Gamble:
Yes, Franco's has it (such as it is). To activate it:

1. Enter the following in Terminal Emulator, after invoking "su":

echo 1 > /sys/module/lge_touch_core/parameters/doubletap_to_wake

Or

2. Run that in an init.d script (you may need the assistance of an app like "Universal Init.d")

Or

3. Use a root file explorer to change the "N" to a "Y" in that file

Or

4. Download Trickster Mod, go to the "Specific" tab and turn it on there.﻿

Ok, well, unfortunately I will not be able to report what's happening in the same conditions, because I've finished exams today and I'm going to write my thesis, at home. I had just yesterday to do ""the tests"" and the phone behaved better but still not good, honestly. Still low-quality information anyway, due to all the emails and calls going on: nothing worth giving too much value to, so.

I will anyway report how the phone behaves in the same plain normal condition at home with good signal and low interferences.

Thinking about it, I must say I always felt this phone going really hot in crowded places (football matches, stadiums, big squares, University..) so I think it's just a hardware limit of it...I would like to know if some behave particularly better in these situations...I guess there are some because, well, my N4 always eats the battery after very few hours...what do you think about it?

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] albundy2010:

There is no hardware problem. Using the 3g radio draws more power. It gets warmer due to this.

Stressing a 4G radio does the same.

It's simply physics. The more power you use the hotter things get.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Akath19:
Actually there is a "problem" with the radio on the N4.

The SoC wasn't meant to be used on phones so the radio was implemented in a rather hacky way, that's entirely a hardware issue that can't be solved.

You're right regarding the physics part, but he's also right when he says that the 3g part is the problem since that's the one causing wakelocks every freaking second and thus warming up the phone.
