I have used rng-tools on some linux servers where lack of entropy was a problem. Made a huge diference in the specific work load there, but I doubt this applies to android as well. I'd like to see some data to back up his claims.

rng-tools uses FIPS 140-2 to make sure the data is sufficiently random, plus you can configure how much of the entropy pool is filled by rngd. In any case, usually if a program reads vom /dev/random there's a reason for it. Anyway this is interesting, I'll start to monitor the entropy pool on my device and see if it gets depleted during normal usage. Everbody can easily check this by reading "cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail".

Ouch, that's like a kick to the crotch of my soul, bro.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] TheByteSmasher:
Franco, sorry if someone asked but do you have any plans to incorporate the menu options to download & auto-flash test builds? If not, please consider it, it will make knowing about and testing test builds on all kernels easier. Also have you thought about a notification option to auto notify about new builds/nightlies/test builds? Thanks.

Looks like your battery life is suffering because some app is keeping it awake according to BBS, and I bet its using the radio continually as well. If you read the help section on PowerManagerService I believe it says that wakelock is a placeholder for user space wakelocks. If you are doing a lot of streaming with Spotify, that could do it for instance.

I had similar issues with stock ROM and suspect that one or more of the bundled Google services is to blame, but I'm not sure about that. In my case, flashing a ROM with the 12/12/12 gapps package fixed the problem. Could be because gapps have far fewer Google apps installed by default, could be because of the data wipe, or something else ROM related. The good news is that I doubt you have a bad battery.

How is battery life with the stock settings. I want my phone to run the smoothest. Was able to pull 5hours screen time with 15 hours total at 1250 483 on build 23. I'm on 26 now and went stock.

Kind if how u can load profiles for the screen. It would be nice if we could share and use profiles for everything else. Like the frequencies and hot plug and governor controls. Just try be able to try tweaks other people have made. Possible call it frequencies profiles or something on a new tab... I mean those all roled up into one. I don't mean a separate profile for each. Maybe with a *safe **unsafe kinda notice so people know what they are getting into with possibly super low volatges or whatever

Well, if you want GREAT sound in any android, just try viper4android. Has been reviewee in xda portal a couple of days ago, so easy to find thread. It's by far the best audio you can get. When I say by far, I mean BY FAR. Acid, xlouder... are just child toys...

Hi [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION],

have been on vacation for a while. When I read it right, you have had implemented something that will start koush's superuser if implemented right.

As some of my user are complaining about no superuser after installing franco kernal I would like to ask you in witch way koush's superuser has to be implemented (buildin) to work with your kernel.

Currently I have a init.simarom.rc that do the start of the daemon. that's working fine with my own kernel but now with yours, so what have I do to change to be compatible ?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] SagiLo:
Can someone please help ?

If i'm using CM 10.2, should I just flash the .img file or i should do the whole process under the AOSP instructions ?

@ franciscofranco.

Will it be possible to have in fku the menu key on the bottom left instead that on the top left?

For right handed like me that use the phone with just one hand and has short thumb it will be easy.

I know that top left is a sort of the new design rule (new gmail g+ youtube apps) but the gmaps has it on the bottom and it really easier to use

I didn't say that and it may be a coincidence. But fact is, i never had that problem before on any device, just now shortly after installing r182.

But as i said: I don't blame the kernel.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
That'd go against all the new Android design guidelines. Besides, you can swipe from the left edge to open the menu, you don't need to tap on the button.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jak3z:
You don't need to click the menu button, just swipe from left to right in the left edge and will bring the menu out.

Reboots have nothing to do with recovery, the recovery only does something when you choose to go into recovery. Also, the most stable TWRP is really 2.5.0.0, since 2.6.0.0 has some bugs, but now they fixed them with 2.6.1.0 and the very latest 2.6.2.0 that was released yesterday.

The recovery flashes your kernel.Sometimes you can get bad flash,or like I did some days ago when I dirty flashed the rom to switch from a kernel to another and got reboots every time the rom booted up and things didn't changed untill I downgraded twrp from 2.6.1.0 to 2.6.0.0 and cleaned flashed the rom.

I haven't been able to find anything by searching or going back on this, but with r178, during the night while I sleep, my phone would use 1-2% battery.

Since r180 and up, my phone will use 6-10% in that same amount of time. The biggest culprit seems to be Google Services. Would this be considered kernel or ROM related? I'm using r182 and PA 3.99 right now.

Hmm, kinda OT but looking at the rumored LG FCC device only 2300 mAh whereas these other devices are getting 3000 mAh. Really hope they beef that up to 3000+ at least, but I seriously doubt since its going through the FCC now. But that is one gorgeous render

Must... resist... urg..... oh screw it, I said the same thing when I had the Galaxy Nexus. Only thing I could want more is a bigger battery life, S4 is 2600 mAh removable. If this is the N5 then its 2300 non-removable. It'd also be super nice if it was 16GB starting instead of 8 but I have a feeling they'll go for 8GB/16GB/32GB scheme this time around :/ would be nice for 16/32. Would make the starting N5 even more appealing.

I'm also not a huge fan of the "NEXUS" sideways. I feel like they should make it more simplistic and just use the iconic X as the logo.

I just realized that the GN had r300+ of Franco Kernels and the N4 only has ~180 :p

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] coolnow:
It's kinda hard when a big portion of the data (Kernel Wakelocks) is deliberately hidden from you :p

Also, on the old kernels (somewhere in the r17x) i was getting like 9% awake no matter what i did, even if i left the phone almost all day it'll be around 7% or 8% awake. The only thing i've changed is updated to latest kernel and damn, i've been getting 2% awake and the rest deepsleep and my battery has improved a lot. I'm happy, all the previous stats about wakelocks has not changed (judging from BBS and Wakelock detector), so the increase is probably due to franco. Shame he hides the kernel wakelocks though, but it would be trivial to re-enable it and recompile, but that shouldn't really be necessary with Android's more or less open nature :laugh:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dsbrohan:
Running r182 on stock and recently I noticed huge android OS usage and battery drain. It's very intermittent and I used BBS to try and see what it is and qcom_Rx_wakeclock seemed to be it. I did a search and couldn't seem to find what it is related to. Any advice? Tried a full wipe already.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] coolnow:
I've noticed this too. It happens mainly after i've charged the phone and unplugged before it got to 100% (especially with portable chargers). That's the only time i've seen the wakelock and tbh i can't reproduce it anymore. Now that i don't get it, i'm getting great battery life.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jak3z:
My wakelock is now at 50%, and all is due to Android OS usage, don't know yet how to solve it but it's very strange.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dsbrohan:
It doesn't happen all the time and its happened to me on the stock kernel as well. I've tried to narrow down apps but I can't find the culprit.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] NYLimited:
If using a wireless charger you need to reboot after charging or the wakelock will not be released. This is a known

issue

and Google has not yet addressed it.

If you are not using wireless charging, obviously, this does not apply.. :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] jak3z:
Never used it :( It happened from one day to another, no different apps, anything... One day I was like wtf 50% battery and only 12 hours charged :eek: when I used to get 24H at 50% battery.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dsbrohan:
I'm not using wireless charging and I never have. I moved to Atlanta and I'm going to GSU. So I'm constantly loosing signal and going in and out of WiFi range while running around on campus. I'll post a BBS screen and hopefully someone can give me a comparison.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Is your rom JSS or JWR? Can you show me the contents of that .rc file please? pastie.org thanks.

That goes against Android guidelines, and to do that I would have to build another actionbar at the bottom and that would **** up the screen real state :)

Of course I will!

Thing is that 99% of the wakelocks that will fúck everyone's devices are from Android OS and not from the Kernel, theres no magic into it, thats how it is.

Android OS = apps or Android functionalities. qcom_Rx_wakelock is most likely Wi-Fi.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dsbrohan:
I finally found out what it is. Apparently it has something to do with high traffic networks. And I guess this happens mostly because of my horrible school WiFi.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sordna:
Just use a toggle widget, and keep the wifi off, turn it on only when you actually need it. I get 2-3 days of battery even with stock kernel ! Most of my wakelocks are by Exchange Services, Google Search, and Keep, those stupid apps consume cycles even in airplane mode.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dsbrohan:
I would but I don't have good reception while on campus so I mainly have to use WiFi so its a problem. The android OS is most likely from Facebook, Google now, email... Etc. That I can deal with but this qcom wake lock is not letting my phone sleep at all while at school. I may just have to deal.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] coolnow:
Of course, i understand that, and i also understand that a lot of people will see strange **** in the Kernel Wakelock section and start running around with their hair on fire because of the obvious Qualcomm modem **** up that gives us some ****ty battery life on 3G. However, disabling the data seems to me like sticking your fingers in your ear and ignoring the problem. Taking away something from the rest of us because a select few can't read isn't the way to go.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Martin_Ro:
