[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lord dredd:
BD , there was one more doubt i was having

due to the awkward position of the power/ock/unlock/wake button at the top its pretty difficult to use the phone one handed ,

Is there a way to get the volume buttons to chip in and help ? i know camera button can wake it , but its also situated at a very awkward postion :P

I am sure i am not the fisrt to shoot that query up , and there must have been something mapping the volume button/s to the waking and may be just may be locking and unlocking as well

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArRaY92:
So since I had my nexus 4, I had to complain about its terrible battery life.

I would never get more than 3h of screen on time, despite my best efforts in conserving battery. Even with the phone in flight mode and on Wifi, I could not cross 3h give or take a few minutes. I even tried disabling location, google now, sync and everything else.

It was deep-sleeping nice, while the screen was off, standby time was awesome for me. If I turned it on though, it started to burn through battery insanely quick. So I started monitoring the frequency states with battery spy, and noticed that as if there was a little load, it spiked to 1026MHz and then stayed there for about three seconds every time before falling back to 386 MHz. So I tried setting the max cpufreq to 916Mhz with CPU tuner, and was astonished to find out, that immediately after the load was done, it went back to the lowest frequency. Like it should be, not hanging for multiple seconds on the high step.

Also, If I start CPU tuner, the min freq is always shown as 1026MHz. So I changed min to 386 and max to 916. Afterwards, this stays until I swipe cpu tuner away from the recent apps list. If I start it again, the settings revert. Strange...

With my cpu limited to 916MHz, I get about 5h and 50 min of screen on time without any other measures. Location on, Wifi on, Google now and sync all active. If I just go one step higher and set my max frequency to 1026, the old behavior starts again, and screen time drops to 3h because it seems to be stuck on that freq. Therefore I would like everybody who also has bad screen time to try that out and report back.

I don't really understand why it would take so long to drop back from the 1GHz step, and drop back immediately from the 0,9GHz step?

Of course, this is with normal surfing via chrome, or using normal apps that are not that much CPU intensive. Also, you hardly notice the performance limitation without playing games. There probably is an easy way to fix this?

Feedback would be appreciated. Maybe I see this wrong...

Thanks

tl;dr : if screen on, for me only 1026mhz is used, if max freq is set to anything lower, the phone spends most of the time at the lowest step 386mhz, greatly increasing screen time for me.

Flash Franco Kernel and buy the app and you'll be set.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArRaY92:
Maybe, but I really first wanted to examine out of the box behavior :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elliot.newnham:
This is caused by qualcoms Mpdecision which ramps up the cpu to 1ghz on screen on and touches. All in the name of speed. It's basically a hot plugging technique such that smoothness is guaranteed under loaded gui transitions and scrolling. Before this you would have to wait for the cpu to be loaded for it to ramp up speed. Now the OS can demand speed.

You can see in Franco kernel he replaced Mpdecision with an open source alternative and swapped the lowest cpu speed to 368mhz. Then added a load step of 768mhz (for 60% loads). This actually added a bit of lag but should be better in the battery department. Some more tweaking to be done though.

Qualcoms thermald is what is causing thermal throttling.

Edit: this could be wrong. But I think I'm in the general area of what's going on...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArRaY92:
This does sound logical, but why the hell waste nearly half of the possible screen time on "perfect smoothness" when even if limited to 0,9ghz everything runs pretty amazing... I will look into francos kernel, even though I dont like to buy an app to tune it,
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v3rk:
You don't have to buy an app, everything can be set through scripts. The app just automates the process, allows you to back up kernels, download the latest nightly and milestone (when one becomes available). It's really worth the investment, plus you're helping out a great Dev who has shared his awesome work with us for a long time.

I like my phone to sleep. I bumped it down to 384!

No need to keep it @ the 1.026, it will pretty much kill battery! Makes no sense to me.

Can I use SetCPU or is that app defunt now? And to change my CPU speeds can that be done on a phone that's simply rooted or do I need a custom kernel?

EDIT: I downloaded CPU tuner, but I'm not sure if it's working or not. Does it work w/ stock kernel or no?

What is max frequency by default?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biffsmash:
Have to say firstly, that the perfect smoothness of this phone is what has sold me on it as the camera is well below average, it has some bugs and the output quality and volume of the audio is shocking, but it is the single smoothest phone out there.

Get rid of what I came to know as Touchboost (feature brought in in jelly bean to introduce the lag free experience of project butter I imagine) from my Sgs3 days, and the phone becomes as laggy as every other android phone out there.

Secondly, I get around 3.5 hours screen on time, without messing about, wifi on constant, depending on whether i'm on the net or not, I can get more.

I find AOKP perfect as its super fast and battery is excellent.

Franko kernel works, but the phone then feels choppy. Setting the cores to 1ghz makes the phone laggy also.

All I can say is, get lots of chargers, I have two at home, two at work, one in the car, one at the other halfs, and it's trickle charging when and if I can and I never worry about battery anyway. I find it wastes far too much life.

Good luck.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksc6000:
Thank you for not contributing to this thread with that useless comment. The rest of us may not want to charge the phone 1500 times a day (or are even able to), and are looking for ways to help battery discharge go slower while using the phone. If you're fine with charging your phone nonstop, then what are you doing in this thread? Everyone knows you can buy many chargers, that's not a solution.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] [hfm]:
Welcome to Project Butter. If you want to do something different than Google's goals for UI smoothness and responsiveness, which is what everyone has been complaining about in Android vs iOS, then you'll have to go the custom ROM/kernel route. Thankfully that is easily available to you on this hardware and software platform. Me? I like the N4 just fine the way it is stock.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArRaY92:
Dude, this has nothing to do with googles project, but instead with Qualcomms responsivness "fix". Please read the answer to my inital post, and you will understand. Also, the phone does in no way feel choppy if you restict it to .9ghz. Except if you load it so much, that it cant cope with this max frequency. But then again, this is not the issue, but the issue is, that 1026 stays active for to long, so that it burns through your battery. There would be only a small change needed to change this behavior, and "possibly" loosing about a fraction of a second of responsivness, that most of the time you wouldnt even notice... Everybody who tells me he is happy with barely 3h of screen time or even less is just the android equivalent of an isheep, because this is in no way acceptable.

Stock never rooted bootloader still locked.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jayrod1980:
If you are getting bad battery... simply flash a custom kernel. You get to keep your stock ROM or whatever but you will get substantial benefits. I prefer Trinity Kernel. Only the second or third update on this kernel and now the phone has made huge gains in battery life. Like hfm, I good on screen time... usually 5-5.5. I have auto brightness on, mobile on 100% of the time, and all Google services synced including books, gmail, currents, google now, etc etc. I have locations on, gps on... everything. Sometimes I turn off NFC because I rarely am somewhere where I can use those cool RFID card scanners. What sucks battery is probably a problem in Android 4.2. The phone does not sleep as much as it should. Go ahead and turn all your sync stuff off and keep the screen on static and let the battery die at stock clock speeds. Probably will get at least 5 hours with auto-brightness on. My phone probably sleeps 60% of the time now according to CPU spy when it sits idle in my car for my 8-10 hour work day. I usually get to the car with a bunch of emails, a text or two waiting for me, and the phone has only been asleep the aforementioned 60% and around 90-91% battery life. On a new phone, starting from full charge, this should be at least 95%. My N10 that doesn't have mobile data, only loses about 1% overnight. Apples to oranges but still. I'm convinced that stock voltages on this device are too high, and that Qualcomm did not give Google the latest drivers... maybe because it's not releasable to AOSP as of yet. I really don't know, but it's gotta be something buggy. This SoC is capable of doing better... and it does in the Optimus G and even with sense, 1080p screen, and a 100mah smaller battery the HTC Droid DNA/Butterfly gets 3.5-4 hours stock screen time. None of the other phones using the S4 Pro are running 4.2. I'm hoping either Qualcomm pulls a Samsung and releases some updated drivers/firmware that Google can incorporate or that Google fixes whatever bugs they may have not worked out. In the next calendar year other phones will be out that use the S4 Pro and 4.2 and I doubt Qualcomm wants to lose the luster it earned with the regular S4 Kraits performance/efficiency. When 4.2 comes to other devices we will probably know whether or not Google is to blame for this or that the Nexus 4 is just a poor performer.

Thanks for this! i just unlocked/rooted and will be testing over the weekend. will report in once i have tested.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr. Hax:
On my RAZR M, I notice in Trickster mod (I was curious) that if I just scroll and do small movements, notification pulldown, the most that happens is core 0 scales to 702MHz, but tries to stay toward lower frequencies (but sometimes goes up to 1350MHz, never 1512MHz), never once turning on core 1, obviously that's a stock kernel since the bootloader is encrypted. (but the governor is interactive)

So this prompted me to flash the stock Nexus 4 kernel, set the governor to interactive, and see if the same behavior happens.

Nope. Just it doing nothing makes the cores go all over the place. Core 0 doesn't want ot go below 702MHz, and the other cores are flashing on and off (but usually staying off) But it's obvious that the behavior is extremely different. Doing nothing or little to nothing, core 0 at least kinda sorta tries to stay at 384MHz.

Just simply TAPPING the screen makes core 1 automatically go online and shoot to 1026MHz. Wtf? Why didn't core 0 just scale a little bit higher like on the RAZR M? Swiping makes scaling and hotplugging happen all over the place. What is going on here? I know it isn't a rogue app, I have the same apps installed and running on my Nexus as on my RAZR M, and I doubt it's the ROM, because the ROM I'm running is pretty close to stock and it happens on every other ROM. It does this on every kernel I've tried, Franco.Kernel is an exception, but there's keyboard lag because if you don't slide your fingers, core 0 stays at 384MHz and no other cores turn on. Is there a kernel for the Nexus 4 that behaves the same way the RAZR M? Why do their stock kernels behave different when the only difference in processor is core count? They're both Snapdragon S4's it's the the Nexus 4 has 2 more cores, why would that make the Nexus kernels want to be absolutely terrible at power management?
