init.d script for ZRAM option has led me to three questions:

1) is ZRAM enabled by default?

2) how would i be able to turn it on and off? is it even possible?

and

3) if we have your FauxClock app, can we control ZRAM (on/off)?

thanks! :)

Edit: also, how would I know if ZRAM is enabled?

Edit 2: enabling zram in cm performance settings works

I figured out that enabling zram in the cm performance settings works. I also used trickster mod to make sure it was on. Before enabling it on in cm settings, it was off in trickster mod

for an experiment

i flashed Enhanced Stock 4.2.2 Kernel (STOCK + UV + HSIC Fixes + Gamma + Speaker) on the paranoid rom latest build 10 june

and the phone is laggy like hell

so what if i want to go back on stock pa kernel??

i know on first post of thread theres explained to flash stock kernel but its for cm and 4.2.2 stock rom

what about pa rom??

or can i reflash your mainline kernel stock on top of my current??

edit:

well i just re-flashed the mainline stock cpu n 487 mhz gpu kernel from the first page and now i am fine

is there a better update then that??

help me please

cause i see there are many updates but without log about which kernel specs

cause i want stock cpu and gpu but with swipe 2 wake and other things tweak able

let me know

Is there any actual use/need/benefit of having/using zram on current android releases and the nexus 4 with all its ram? I mean, we always have tons of free ram :P

That said, i have to ask too, how to check if it is enabled, and how to disable it :P (i wont use trickster, bad experiences :P)

ps: no news on the watchdog reboots on B4 using C2 instead of C3, right?

Pa kernel uses Franco by default I think. Anyway reflash the ROM to get the stock kernel.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sid21:
pa uses stock kernel tweaked by franco so its stock

then i flashed the kernel from first page enhanced stock for 4.2.2

it was too laggy

as i have use many other kernels by faux

but they were liquid smooth

then now i just reflashed the mainline stock by faux from first page over the enhanced stock

i guess it worked cause no ram disk was modified as its only franco

so my question is that which is the latest build mainline or any better other then the enhanced

as i saw a few pages back that there is 16b2 out

what kernel category is that from?

Kernel for MIUI ?

I really appreciate your effort in giving us the awesome kernels and tht is why i bought many of your apps :).. I would like to know if you are planning to develop a kernel for MIUI ?

I am currently on MIUI v3.6.10 and flashed faux 16b4. The rom is booting and very snappy with your kernel as usual, but unfortunately, the faux clock app settings dont seem to stick. Whenever i open the app, the settings seem to have reset to some junk values. Undervolting doesnt respond and the table is not refreshed.

I am not sure if it is a kernel issue or app issue, but would like to have your latest & greatest kernel working in MIUI rom with all the awesomeness from FauxClock app enabled :)

What is the real benefits? The "free" always show that swap USE is 0 even with almost all RAM in use.

[MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION] can you please fix FauxClock so it doesn't store files in the root of /sdcard/?

If fauxdisplay.txt must be stored in /sdcard/, please store it in /sdcard/Android/data/<package_name>/, that way no artifacts are left behind when uninstalling the app, and it keeps our sdcard clean and tidy.

As for backups (fauxclock_backup.tar), please store this in /sdcard/data/<package_name>/ as this location will NOT be deleted when uninstalling the app. Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] corwest:
As far as OC goes, most CPUs are designed to handle much more than they are clocked at from the factory. That being said, running it at a higher clock all the time may have some wear associated with it. Every CPU is different.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
Overclocking is less of an issue that overvolting. Heat is the main enemy of processors. If overclocking requires more voltage than stock that will cause extra heat/wear on the device. If you can do it at stock voltages it is probably fine, watch your temps though.

Hi Faux123,

I am using your kernel with your app and the stock rom. Just have 2 questions.

1.	With your v15m kernel I was able to undervolt -150mv on 1.512ghz, intelidemand, snake charmer on, all other settings default. With the latest betas I am unable to underclock more than -75mv with the same settings (i.e. on 1.512ghz, intelidemand snake charmer on). I just cannot seems to find a logical explanation 

2.	The way I understand eco mode Is that only a max of 2 core are working at any given time. If that is the case why when I run the StabilityTest app, it shows that all 4 cores are working?

Many thanks

---------- Post added at 08:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 PM ----------

Hi,

Following on my post, I thing I found the reason why I cannot undervolt more than -75 on the latest betas. It is just that the snake charmer does not work properly (sorry Faux). It does not stick to the 1512mgh and actually go right to the 1836mgh

Example: set the cpu to 1512mgh and snake charmer on. Do a performance test with the antutu benchmark app, then immediately after the test is done, switch to the faux app and you will see that it somehow reverted back to the max 1836mgh.

So basically I think my cpu cannot handle underclock of-150 on 1836mgh. (but it should not as I set it to 1512mgh)

Yup, super wierd. I tried the Mainline 4.2.2 Kernel and intellidemand is there. It seems like its missing at least for me in nhanced Stock 4.2.2 Kernel (STOCK + UV + HSIC Fixes + Gamma + Speaker).

However, the mainline version breaks touch control. Whenever touch control tries to load the module, it loads the matrix module instead of faux. I'll have to settle with swipe2wake instead of a double tap.

The betas are of uxylon aka UKG, the transition is still in the WIP phase so stability may not always be there. Personally I've been using ukg for awhile and the only reboots I had were voltage related. Also not all chips can handle the states listed on the SOC tab...
