Just reflash your ROM to get a stock kernel, run the terminal command, find out your bin and then reflash Franco. Problem solved. It will take all of 5 minutes.

Sent from my often RMA'd Nexus 4, So that I can use the one I'm using now when I get the 6th and hopefully final one.

By the way, just because you have a certain bin there's no guarantee you can or can't under volt by x amount. I had a fast bin before that couldn't under volt at all. Also, many nominal and fast phones bench better than the faster bin I have right now.

[Nexus 4 General] resynx:
Yeah I got a replacement but I ran the test on this current phone twice. My old one was a fast. Lol, who knows what happened. Oh well.

Well the first time I ran it I got a 4 (faster) and now I'm getting a 1 (slow). I've actually read 2 different charts from multiple people stating that 1 is slow and I think the other stated 1 was nominal so whichever one is right :confused:
[Nexus 4 General] andreasblueher:
Since I got "only" nominal I was wondering if I should try to RMA my device to get at least a "fast" one. As I understand the different versions mean different voltages at the same frequenzy which might result in higher temperatur at the same frequenzy if you compare slow to faster.

Is it worth trying to convince the Google support to send me a new one? Thanks for your advice
[Nexus 4 General] stuart0001:
Is there any documentation that backs up the theory of this command and results etc.
[Nexus 4 General] XxSilent22xX:
hmm, when i first tested this phone it was a "fast" i just tested it again and got a "1". this command is not a reliable way of determining cpu binning.
[Nexus 4 General] stuart0001:
Does it do and perform as advertised If yes then you have no grounds for a RMA
[Nexus 4 General] TheByteSmasher:
Nothing happens with that command.. I get no Output, just the command line again...??? Even tried it through an ADB shell.. Same result. I have SuperSU 1.01 with a new binary.. could that cause this? Now that I'm curious, I'd like to get it to work.

So then are you saying that if your's is "faster" you should ultimately be able to get the maximum amount of battery life based on your CPU's ability to be undervolted? Does this command work for every device?

[Nexus 4 General] chrisss87:
this has nothing to do with speed. It means, "fast" can achieve the target CPU frequency with a lower voltage than "slow". So, you could get better results in overclocking.
[Nexus 4 General] stuart0001:
I'm still not convinced about this command and interpretation etc. Is there anything to back this up?
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Chip bin doesn't mean you can oc more or less. Some fast and nominal of better than my faster bin. It only pertains to under volting, not the maximum freq the chip can run at.

Also to all those with dmesg problems: from the A500 scene I learnt something very important about dmesg - it has a fixed length after which it starts truncating starting from the top. Therefore if you get no output just reboot your phone then run the commands as quickly as possible then you'll get something useful.

this thread sucks forever

hooray, mine is slow.

I knew I shouldn't have checked... but I wanted to see how far I may be able to UV.

To be honest, I am really happy with my N4 so far (just got it :) ), but it gets hot really easily. However, I haven't played with frequencies yet, so everyone has the same heat at stock, right? Fast and faster people: was your N4 hot after 5-10 minutes at stock?

I know it may seem like not really that big of a deal, but thermal throttling on the N4 is definitely real and UV would definitely help, these aren't just half-baked guesses.

This is knowledge that I wish to forget. Someone mix me a drink with some bleach :silly: :eek:

[Nexus 4 General] Eradorius:

301K rev. 11 from Media-Markt DE
[Nexus 4 General] Komodo Rogue:
"thermal throttling isn't an issue unless you're a benchmark whore." While I agree that the chip designations will not affect almost every N4 user, the assertion that UV only has tangible benefits for benchmarks (which I couldn't care less about) is simply not true.

The N4 is a beast, and (storage concerns aside) could serve as a fantastic portable computer for a lightweight linux distribution, which is something I find extremely appealing. However, running a modern desktop environment like LXDE to multitask applications like browsers, word processors, etc is very demanding, but I think the Adreno 320 can deliver a smooth experience.

However, when the device warms up, the frequency shifts down. UV to keep temps in check could easily make the difference between 5 minutes of smooth computing or an hour of smooth computing. I may not be able to do UV, and my higher voltage>higher temps>throttling>noticeable performance loss when using doing demanding tasks. I don't think there's anything to debate... but if you're sure that the slow chips are the same as the fast/faster, then PM me and we can trade. I'll pay for shipping :)

but look, I'm not really in the mood to argue this, and I know it isn't a huge problem. I'm just saying that it seems plausible, if not altogether likely, that this actually will impact the way I wanted to use my device :(

Wow! Well that's certainly interesting. Were there any other factors that could have impacted the heat, like display brightness, charging the battery, room temperature?

[Nexus 4 General] io53:
If I've understood it right the stock kernel have different voltage tables for different binned chips (lower voltages for the 'better' binned, tho fast and faster have the same table). So even stock should have lower temperatures.. Don't know what the deal is with your case. Was both phones the same hw rev?
