Has anyone had any problems with wifi on enhanced stock r3 or r4? I tried both and they both gave me wifi problems. For example, I would connect to the wifi network, but not have internet access.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] xflowy:
guys. one question.

is it really necessary, to reflash the current custom rom (im on xylon 16) each time when updating the kernel. i mean the previous version then was faux kernel and the new one will be also faux...

another thing i expercienced since updating to 004r2. according to fauxclock my cores dont go offline as easy as before when in idle state and whats also strange: when all except one core are offline, the first one shows 384 mhz and then suddenly the second one hits maximum speed at random times without changing the speed of the first core.

is that normal?

thank you so much!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
You dont have to wipe or flash anything when changing kernels. The ONLY exception t this has ever been coming from Franco's kernel as it has a different boot image.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] xflowy:
everything fine with that.

but i have some questions according the settings in fauxclock: i want to tweak everything in a higher performance direction cause it isnt as smooth as i want it when using the "performance settings" from faux' post.

so how should i change my settings for a little more power. if i stick to the interactive governor, am i allowed to activate mpdecision - or is this interfering with interactive gov as well? perhaps this could be the only needed change. or should i disable snakecharmer then?`

thanks for that!

btw. is the conservative gov more or less performance optimized than the interative?

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] faux123:
Re: [Kernel] (version 004_r2) Mako (UV Control/CPU/GPU OC/Optimized) [Jan-16]

You have two choices for maximum performance with my kernel + fauxclock.

1. Enable mpdecision, set governor to ondemand, you will have all my tweaks and still staying pretty close to stock settings.

2. Disable mpdecision, switch over to interactive, lower the hispeed_load to 80 under governor control. This should be pretty good for performance as well.

My kernel + fauxclock give maximum flexibility, you can stay stock or use my settings at any time.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] DirkBelig:
I don't know how people are claiming such long battery times because neither of my Nexus 4s (first had so-so screen, muffled microphone, mediocre battery life, and was returned) gets anywhere near these times. At Android Central, for every three people complaining about poor life is someone who says he's got 20% left after 19 hours and 4 hours of screen time. What's the deal?

Using faux's 004m_r2 kernel, the battery-priority settings from post #2, stock ROM, undervolting -125 mV, screen brightness manually at 25%, only Gmail taking instant notifications, K-9 mail checking every two hours, not reporting locations constantly, nothing else that I'm aware of polling, turning off wifi when I'm away from home, having 2-4 bars of AT&T service 85% of the time, I'm at 7% left after 14 hours with 2:06 of screen on time. Is it even possible to dream of better?

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dark_ente:
not from the app breakdown but from screen usage.

Normally, for me and everybody, our screen use 60% of battery. In your case other apps use much more battery than the screen (50%), so some app must be constantly running in the background.

If you want more screen-on time, you need to reduce the battery use by those app - identify the one who has problem and try to find alternatives.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Higadeb:
Just a quick Q, GMaps takes up 15-30% battery for me even when I've got 2hrs screen usage (~45-55%). Any ideas as to why it's so high? It has over 2hrs of wakelocks and ~45mins of GPS. Oh, and I should say I've not opened the map app since boot, so it's done all this by itself.

I'll post a screen shot later when I collect my phone if that'll help (left it at a mates house by accident.)

I know this probably has little to do with the kernel (if anything) so sorry for being OT, just wondered if anyone here could shed some light on it.

Re: [Kernel] (version 004_r2) Mako (UV Control/CPU/GPU OC/Optimized) [Jan-16]

Here are the screens I think you're referring to, but as you can see - and these are typical - the top processes are Android and Google services. I've had days when Gmail or Phone has gone rogue, guzzling 20% of power and the latter doing so when I haven't even made a call. How do I shut those off? What's the alternative to Android? iOS?

Looking at my stored screen grabs, I see Screen averaging about one-third of battery consumption, ranging from 25%-40%. The only widget I have that updates every half-hour or so is a Fancy Widgets time/weather one. I don't use Beautiful Widgets or HD Widgets specifically because I've seen them reporting high power usage themselves, so I've been trying to be conscientious about what I'm doing. However, I've seen some explaining they get long battery life by shutting off 3G and darn near everything you buy a smartphone for. If you're going to turn everything off, why not just use a dumb phone that can go several days between charges?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] HyperM3:
This might be a silly question but I have to ask. I have been changing kernels on my phones for almost a year now. If all I do is download the kernel and not make any changes, is it even worth it? Does anyone else just download the kernel and run it as is, or is the whole point to make the changes?

Re: [Kernel] (version 004_r2) Mako (UV Control/CPU/GPU OC/Optimized) [Jan-16]

You could've searched the thread to find this answer.

Seeder in itself doesn't work the way intended, only reason people felt a difference was because CPU was under constant load thus using higher frequencies. While trying to figure out what was happening Cyanogen discovered something that made the UI a bit smoother. Faux implemented it into his app its called "EMMC Entropy Contribution". The default is on but if you turn it off, there should be a performance increase.

005b3 had pretty bad battery life, 16% overnight drop, compared with <1% for 002b8, so I reverted, and wow the battery life is much much better on 002b8.

Same settings, same voltage (-150), same apps. Just a kernel flash apart. I never had data drops with 002b8, so that is the gold standard for time being.

Just my report. 002b8 has almost zero mam hsic Wakelocks but 005b3 has that wake lock again. Go figure

005_05 feels very snappy. Initial usage I noticed a buzzing noise on poweramp, happens about every 5 mins... I need to test it further, could be the latest build of Xylon.

I don't play games on my phone, mainly for emails and internet browsing. And a few people looking for better battery, try my settings:

(These settings for people after good balance of performance and battery. Not for benchmarkers or 3D gamers)

Undervolt:

384mhz - 1026mhz @ 800mv

1134mhz @ 850mv

1188mhz @ 875mv

1242mhz @ 887.5mv

1296mhz @ 912.5mv

1350mhz @ 925mv

CPU settings:

Intellidemand

384 min and 1134 Max

Eco and mpdecision: off

Sneaker charmer: on

Now the important bit

Governor:

Up threshold: 75

Two phase freq: 1026000

Max freq: 1134000

Sync freq: 810000

I tested the motley b17 and Franco R46. In terms of battery this isn't much in it. I charged my phone to 100% and used it continuously till 90% on Wi-Fi and recorded the on screen time. All 3 kernels returned a screen time of about 40 mins.

Motley gave a slightly better result but probably down to the extra undervolt. 600mv compared to the 800mv on faux.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] faux123:
Just repost of what I posted on G+ about HSIC wakelock in general:

wakelocks are necessary evil because how the modem data port is connected on Nexus 4. LGE/Qualcomm failed pretty hard when they decided to connect the MDM9215 LTE/HSPA modem to USB :( USB was designed to auto-suspend when no data is available, but Cell modem will query the cell towers and regular and random intervals, so in order to keep the data alive, they have to hold a wakelock until the data transfers are done. That's why when you on wifi, the wakelock is zero, but when on Cell the wakelock depends on how much data is sent back/forth.

The new patches just allows for better auto-suspend algorithms and able to turn off more hardware when NOT IN USE ONLY. Still can't fix everything on the kernel side. The radio firmware also needs to be updated to reduce this further but we have no control over radio... This is the best we can do so far.

How can I reset the setting without full wiping?

I've verified that after flashing new AOKP (nightly) I can boot just fine. But after flashing any of faux's 005+ it remembers my settings and just continues to boot loop.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] DJMartini:
Maybe I didn't ask my question correctly.

I know OP states intellidemand for battery life ... however you can under-clock GPU and CPU lower than what is recommended. If you do that will it conserve more battery life?

Intellidemand should definitely yield better battery life. Lowering both CPU/GPU frequencies will improve battery also, how much is debatable though. If performance isnt an issue for you then take cpu speed down to 1026 or even 918.
