Why is it so hard for you folks to respect the OP? he already asked to quit bombarding his thread with other kernels and yet I've seen three post that disregard his plea.. Don't be a ****, Just don't mention another kernel at all..that easy

Hey whats up guys just skimming through here to check things out. I must admit I did read where the OP asked to refrain from mentioning other kernels. I understand evolving, essence of android and sharing opinions but when the OP specifically ask to respect his thread by not mentioning other kernels I think that would supersede everything else.

Its easy to give an opinion without bashing and easy to say for example... Back on Matrix after trying a few others lets see how this goes.... Lets evolve and be respectful especially to the guy providing you with something you can not do yourself...

Not trying to start anything just speaking my mind and I understand everyones points.... Enjoy your time here and carry on!

P.S. More people should read the OP and not be given a pass if they do not :good::D

Help flashing it

A bit noob question, but can someone tell step-by-step how to flash this kernel?

With N4, I don't have much experience on flashing, so not sure if I copy the zip on the phone and then wipe data (factory reset) via cwm, will it delete the zip too? Anyway, should I do a factory reset before flashing?

Also, read this and I don't know should I take care of it:

"Some kernel devs pack their own ramdisk into their boot.img that you are flashing, so when you try to flash a DIFFERENT kernel, you end up in a bootloop. To solve this you need to reset the ramdisk by flashing a stock reset kernel with the stock ramdisk."

Thanks in advance for help!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] themike10452:
1 - You don't have to wipe anything to change kernels.

2 - Factory reset removes all your apps and their data, but not your sdcard contents.

3 - To avoid problems it's recommended to flash the stock kernel before flashing a new kernel if you're coming from a custom kernel that packs a custom ramdisk, such as Franco kernel. No need to reboot after flashing the stock kernel, just flash stock then new kernel then reboot your phone.

Cheers :)

fyi - you should not start a post with "This kernel have a big problem" first off if you skim through the post and notice that you are the only one with this issue or it has not been posted a million times then your statement is false and misleading. Your nexus freezing could also be cause by your rom or a rogue app. Dont just assume its the kernel then bash it....

Some of you really need to learn how to word things a little better. Jus sayin' :D
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Oxious119:
Remember if you overclock your GPU/CPU (I assume you did as you downloaded the GPU oc version) it's trial and error. Every hardware reacts differently to higher frequencies. So if your device freezes or crashes you should downclock and try again.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] playya:
Just as a follow up to your question that was already answered. I am not sure what phone you may have come from because some did have you use a kernel cleaner and other things prior to flashing. Generally the OP will let you know if any extra steps are needed and also probably skimming through the thread will give you those answers.

Developers generally properly instruct users on exactly what to do..... All else fails reflash rom then new kernel :good:

I need some advice before I flash this kernel.

I'm on Stock ROM, rooted and with teamwin recovery 2.6.3.3

Can i Flash this kernel directly from recovery?

Also, I found 4 different version of this kernel to download (normal, cm, cm+gpuoc, gpuoc).

What version should I download?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] TheKnux:
Is this for AOSP only on will it work with CM based ROM's also?

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] playya:
LOL was someone mean to you.... Hey dont take that stuff personally just know before you post to make sure you do your proper research. Generally all questions have been answered or can be searched... Believe me it took me seeing people getting flamed to realize a lil searching goes a long way....

Now from OP it says this

v13.5 Reverted the Interactive governor updates due to issues (back to v12.5 Interactive governor), added mrg666's Linux 3.6.11 workqueue backport patches in order to improve hotplug efficiency, and added CyanogenMod based ROM support (CAF).

Then you go to the link and see this Matr1x-cfs_v13.5-cm-gpuoc.zip. a few minutes of just research and a simple deduction would lead me to believe this version is for CM. OP has graciously spent time to make this right for us.

Now not trying to be rude just trying to show you how you can help yourself in the future.... Happy Flashing

---------- Post added at 03:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:26 PM ----------

Yes you can flash directly from recovery and you flash which ever version you desire and is correct for the rom you are running. If currently on stock then download the normal ones since I am sure you are aware of the fact that the ones labeled "cm" are for cm based roms. Also if you do not know what gpu and gpuoc is may I suggest a little googling to see if that is for you.

Also flashing instructions as well as other members experience can be found within the thread and also a few pages back for reference
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] TheKnux:
Haha thanks. Some people can be harsh at times lol. I just figured a quick question would get a quick answer, especially if people know the answer. I mean hell, it takes less time to reply with an answer to the question especially if the person asking it spent a little time looking for an answer but still came back with nothing.

I also started a thread in Q&A trying to better understand the difference between CAF/Non-CAF. Mind you, I did read up on it, but I would like other people's opinions about it.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] playya:
Nothing wrong with wanting to hear other opinions but remember if half the people and they do in xda thought like you did there are simple questions being answered all the time. Hence the reason why so many seem so rude since alot of the questions require little to no research. I like to research things makes me feel like I accomplished something. No worries though but just keep that in my next time you get flamed.....:D

First of in matrix the max cpu frequency is 1.5ghz.

Second only the OC version of matrix is able to clock the gpu to 487mhz.

Third a governor only sets the behavior of the frequency and not the amount of cores online. To control the amount of cores online look for hotplug control.

Maybe he was using an older version of Matr1x?????

He was also able to change the cpu and gpu using a `performance` tab in the android settings.... i dont have that and its not in the developer part either.... or maybe he was using some other rom that has that function??

Either way im unable to overclock Matr1x at all.....

Will i be better off downgrading to android 4.2 or something??

PS the best score ive had on that benchmark test is 1788 !!!!!!!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ian577416:
I wouldn't concern myself too much with benchmarks. Does the phone feel fast to you? Overclocking doesn't really do a whole lot for performance and does a whole lot to reduce battery life. Mathkid stays away from it for a reason. You can downgrade if you wish but you will loose the benefits of 4.4 and be running a kernel with antiquated code. Just my two cents long time Matrix user and even longer phone modder.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] C4SCA:
" `performance` tab " only available on some custom roms (generally CM based).

older versions of matr1x kernel had overclock (READ THE OP!!! it has the entire changelog).

" Will i be better off downgrading to android 4.2 or something?? " different folks for different strokes, do what suits u the best.

as for benchmarks.. i dont care about scores, what matters is if its higher than what u were getting on stock.

Overclock on the s4 pro is kinda useless unless u live in a very cold place. the s4 pro heats up pretty fast so if u overclock ur phone will reach the thermal throttle temp much faster and u will be running at 1.2ghz or even lower much sooner. so overclocking is not teh way to go for better preformance
