Yes, but each CPU (every single last one) has different stability levels so be careful, undervolting can cause instablitity

Is there any update on this kernel?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Bill Gamble:
r203 is the latest.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
Just Rooted my phone. Installed Paranoid beta6 with this kernel.

thanks for the kernel. keep up the good work :)

SetCpu

Hi.

May be its a stupid question, but will the SetCpu apk work fine with Franco kernel on Nexus 4 ?

And, which one is better - Franco updater or SetCpu ?

Thank You
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] StormTrooper89:
the answer is simple. Franco kernel updater
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
I know, but it has not flashable "undo" zip file, it's why I am asking...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] StormTrooper89:
maybe [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] is busy. but n5 already had latest update with lots of changes. hope he can atleast say few words and make all of us feel relief. :D

---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 PM ----------

undo zip file? for cpu tuning?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
Yes.

For undervolting settings or other things I can ruin...

Something like Xposed_disabler....
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] StormTrooper89:
Well idk your taste but you can try franco updater free on PStore. and of course it also have the same function and more than setcpu app.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
OK Man.

Thanks A lot !
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] donteo:
i guess there will be r34 for n5 and after that something like r204 for our poor n4 :p
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] maxver0:
I have created an application for people who use Swipe2Wake implemented in kernel. As some of you may know, after some time screen might freeze in unexpected moment after unlocking the device. Saying freeze I mean that edges of display becomes unresponsive so we can't expand or notifications or use navigation buttons/PIE.

There is solution to make screen responsive again. You need to disable Swipe2Wake, turn off display (lock it) and then unlock. You can turn on S2W again. But if you have locked your device with some application running and after unlocking your device you are founding out that you have unresponsive edges. So you may not be able to access terminal or trickster app to disable Swipe2Wake due to unresponsiveness of the edges of screen.

There comes in my application. You should add it to Power Menu so you can access it via Power button. So after setting up application all you need to do is just to press Fix button, don't touch the screen and wait 20s until you feel vibration (instructions in app).

You can choose between S2W, S2W + DT2W and DT2W only(if kernel supports DT2W). If you will do initial setup you can just start from position number 2.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
I'm not trying to sound harsh or rude here guys but that's just the way things are.

Franco started on some old LG thing I think it was, maybe a couple more devices, made his way to nexus s, then galaxy nexus, nexus only support happened, then nexus 4, galaxy nexus took back seat, then nexus 5. That's without counting n7 2012 & 2013 or n10. I'm sure you will receive another update but don't fret. Franco hasn't even been active in n5 forum for a couple of days. The guy has to have a break and live his life and I'm sure once he gets the latest official n5 build out he will look at porting over the stuff to add improvements to older devices but it has always been

1 newer devices before old

2 phones before tablets

Just to add to that iv followed franco from galaxy nexus to n7 2012 then n7 2013 and now n5, the later two being my current devices

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
I would say this has to do with coincidence more than anything. CM being the most widely used ROM, means there are more people to complain about problems. I would also venture to guess that many noobs start on CM because it is the most popular. So we get the noob reports as well.

Edit: I've been running CM without a single problem for 2 weeks now.

This makes sense, but if Franco sees something in the logs that point to a ROM issue, then I could understand him pulling support for a while.

Don't you mean - "From this second I won't be giving any type of support if you're running Cyanogenmod nightly ROMs on your device. If you're using a CM nightly build and you have a random reboot and the /proc/last_kmsg says "kernel panic" I will help, if it shows whatever besides that I won't even reply to your post."

I'm assuming this due to your first paragraph...

It'd be a waste of time. Ubuntu desktop needs a ****ton of optimizations before it can even be considered to be installed on a mobile device , Decrease memory footprint , get rid of Xorg use something else (mir) , integrate hardware support (gps,accelerometer,camera) etc.. , all of which is already done in Ubuntu Touch. The battery would dry out before you could say hello on a voip client.

But sure , you can do it just for the fun of it.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] philosophics:
Not the case at all
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] klvnhng:
Well, newer devices always get priority since fewer patches have been made for them. It's always been like this, n4 is already at r203 so it's probably considerably stabler than n5 anyway. Regardless, I'm sure we'll get an update soon!

You could change the governor settings, so it uses lower frequencies more often and boosts to lower freq on touch, etc.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
Can you please tell me how to do it?

What exactly to change, where, what values...

Thank you!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
In Franco's app, in the governor control. I can't go over every single value there, but look for information on them and tweak them yourself. Here are some sources, where you could probably find useful info:

Btw, what is cpu throling or something like that, it's 70 but not marked.

Will it help playing with it?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
It's a value in degrees Celsius. When the CPU reaches that temperature, the kernel will slow it down in stages to cool down the device. Not sure if it does something else to cool down the device but it probably does. Though it won't slow down the cpu lower than 1GHz, which is your current max freq. (I think. You could test it)

A big constraint is space in the phone. They're trying to make sim cards go from micro to nano so you can see how important space is. Fan takes up a lot of space. For anything if the passive cooling is not enough and space is available, only then a fan is needed.

In GPU control, lower max GPU frequency to 128
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:

It means the graphics will be SUCKS or what exactly?

Thank You...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RootNightmareX:
It means it will slow your device especially in games.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
So, if I don't play games, I won't see any difference?

I think after the change my CPU is 100 percent all the time. is it possible?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RootNightmareX:
You can see differences but not big ones.You should at least put the processor at 1,2ghz. Underclock is not so worth to do as much as the undervolting and you didn't undervolt too much. For example I have 1,5ghz uv at 1100 and no problem even on gaming w/franco. Try different frequinces and choose the one that suites you the best. ;) But sure if you want more battery you should definetly choose another kernel or another version of franco, the latest one is not battery friendly.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
My CPU max is 1ghz, undervolting - 150 and gpu 128 as you told me.

You think it's ok?

By the way, what franco should I use?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RootNightmareX:
You should use hells core if you want battery 'nuf said.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RealSlimShadyMC:
For heat, CPU speeds are just as important as undervolting, even if the advantages aren't 'as big'. Lower CPU speeds require lower voltages which reduce heat.

---------- Post added at 07:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:29 PM ----------

Agreed, hellsdoctor and hellscore are great for battery, but for a smoother experience while still getting good battery nothing can best Franco.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] abalam:
Haha
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Who ever is talking about reducing heat in here, another suggestion is set hot plug load threshold to 100 forcing duel core only and use per app modes if you find lag in the odd application which you probably find is only graphics intensive games. That with under volt, under clocking, underclock your gpu and reduce your input boost freq you should increase battery and lower temps
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] llsantiago:
When I set hotplug load to 100, on r203 I can't get that dual core only, I think that is an issue, because on older releases than 193 it doesn't happen.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
It might be a proccess is stuck using core 2. Set it at 100 and set on boot and reboot, if that fails wipe fku data and reboot then set it again.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] llsantiago:
I was was having it a long time ago, but tried what you said and unfortunately failed. I took these screenshot:

Curiously i noticed a crazy load at CPU 4 :confused:

PS: I´m using Max frequency at 1.0 and touch boost at 810 mhz.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
A couple of ideas come to mind, if your using a custom rom it might have its own init.d / ram disk scripts forcing that cpu behaves how it wants or you should try clearing fku data and reboot. I know on my nexus 5 setting hot plug to 100 on stock rom forces only 2 cores to be online and works fine.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Overdose1986:
Im soo happy with battery life and franco kernel performance but I want to tweak my N4 to match my Nexus 5 speed, I already did a search and found nothing, can some1 please post a guide for optimal setup?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
So, I should make lower than (-150) for every speed ?

BTW, I downgraded to R201... It looks better...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] tommypacker:
You should probably check if your n4 can handle an uv that low. If it reboots when doing that, uv less
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
The phone works fine with -150 UV.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Gemichi:
This is confusing. boot-r203.img/.zip is for which version? cm11? 4.4.2? When I flash it, The colours are distorted and the service stops working...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] tommypacker:
That's because CM is caf based. To use this kernel, you'll have to flash a caf-based version of this kernel which you can find in the Nexus 4 Android Development section
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RealSlimShadyMC:
Anything lower than -150 is an insane undervolt, I doubt you can even run it stably

---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ----------

CM decided to CAF up their ROM.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
So it can make a damage to the cpu or any other part of the phone?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RealSlimShadyMC:
Not damage, but it can make you bootloop and make you need to do a full wipe. Oh and BTW sorry everyone for my huge post yesterday, Tapatalk wouldn't give me a message sent confirmation and I kept retrying

Don't overclock too much, you get a RLoD which in severe cases can fry your CPU and board
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
So, if I didn't get bootloop till now I won't get it later, right/wrong?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RealSlimShadyMC:
Maybe. Some undervolts can give you reboots later.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
So you suggest a 100?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RealSlimShadyMC:
I can do -125, try that first. The lower the better, until you hit the barrier
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] yanleites:
Thank you, I will try.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] RootNightmareX:
Bro, I can't get you. Franco is good for hungry performance apps & games especially. If you undervolt and underclock this means you don't want to use full power of the device, then why you use franco ? You can try hellscore/doctor and u can get better battery without undervolting and underclock which sometimes can harm your device/battery ...

PS: This is just an advice

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Gemichi:

CAF stands for Code Aurora Forums, newer CM builds use the CAF kernel branch (direct Qualcomm supported)-therefore AOSP based kernels like franco's will not be compatible.
