I lost all cell signal bars while on WiFi. WiFi was fine but cell was nonexistent off and on. Back on r24 and all seems solid again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Blackcrx:
You're having cell drop with r26 still?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BOY_:
I was about to download it when I saw others seemed to be having issues so I held off. At my house I have a crappy signal so testing will be difficult. At work I sit under a repeater so signal drops are very obvious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Blackcrx:
according to the previous posts it only affected verizon users.

I'm asking somply because I'm in Canada with Rogers and I have not had any cell drops. Which was also why I was asking about the signal color it was showing, whether it was black or red

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] parkson:
r26 has same signal drops as r25. Boype looked through the catlogs I provided and found the cause of LTE signal drops for VZW users. He is investigating the fix
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aHecticLife:

This is what I got with first charge from purity 5.4.2 and fancy r26 ext. For me more than enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boype:
In my opinion, the memory leak as not that devastating that the increased priority makes it worse. But I have no research data or something on that, it's just my thought.

There have been several threads in other devices' forums where the launcher's priority was increased. I've tried it with the GNex, and maybe It'll get a little smoother. But then again, what good is it when the launcher is smoother and all other apps (including settings) are not? I think priorizing systemui is the way to go.

Also, I highly doubt that systemui can be killed.

To the toro users with signal dropping problems: Can you please do a

'ps -p > /sdcard/ps.txt' (without the quotes)

running r24 and then post the output in /sdcard/ps.txt here??? It would be very helpful!

You're right, the kernel cannot directly control the priority. It is handled via a startup shell script that is located in the kernel's RAMDISK.

I'm not 100% sure if I understand you correctly, but I think you are referring to GPU governor. Fancy kernel has this implemented... Or did you mean something else?

The way it works is this: You set your maximum desired frequency in trickster (307, 384 or 512 MHz). Then there's also the option to pick from 'powersave', 'ondemand' and 'performance'. powersave will only scale your GPU up to 307 MHz, regardless of your chosen frequency. ondemand will dynamically switch between 307 MHz and the maximum freuquency you set. performance will not use the 307 MHz step, but will use your chosen maximum frequency immediately. ALL of these options also use the GPU idle frequency of 150 MHz when there is no load!

new test version

I have uploaded a new test version. It focuses on fixing the data drops for toro users and on overall smoothness and responsiveness.

From now on, test versions are linked under the Downloads section in the OP. You'll also find a note there what the focus is on, so you know what to test and what to report. The test versions now also have numbers, so you can see if a new test version is out.

Of course, test versions are not necessarily a definite fix for the problems they focus on, they are attempts to fix and to collect feedback from you, the users.

Still getting dropouts for Toro on latest tst-r26-01.

Happened thrice in the following log. First occurred somewhere near 8:45 mark and second time around 9:04.

Third dropout was different - signal bars remained blue, despite phone losing signal. Because of this false reading(?), connection never returned as it did the first two dropouts. Had to save this log and reboot to reacquire signal

I also created a ps.txt for r26 test kernel, as well. Figured I'd post that too in case you might find it useful in any way.

Small review of the kernel...

I've been using this kernel for a 6 month or something like that... It's THE ONLY ONE kernel with stock colors that looks real) But the default trimming function makes my phone lag like hell!!! Do we really need this option in kernel? There is nice app, which could do it automatically...

Отправлено с моего A701 через Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Charmacas:
AFAIK the trimming only does its work while booting. So it doesn't harm your performance. It's only implemented to do first aid for users which are coming from another kernel. Boype activated the discard function and so no more trimming is needed. ;)

[MENTION=4615478]boype[/MENTION] could you please have a look on OnDemandPlus? I asking because the new Hangout app lags a lot. If I run at performance governor it's smooth and great. So I think we may be able to tweak your great governor a little. :)

test r26 04

Hi,

I've uploaded another test version to attempt to fix data drops on toro. So far, across the different test versions, I have reverted almost everything that was introduced after r24 to see if it the cause. When test 04 fails too, I will simply recompile r24 without any changes to see if the problem is not within the changes made, but somewhere else.

I know its been talked about past few pages, but with toro and r26 data was dropping like crazy with 3g and 4g. To test to make sure nothing was with phone, tried on 2 roms (liquid and slim) same results with data drop left and right. Reset the phone completely, locked,flashed stock rom, formatted..etc. Loaded it up on a fresh build same results. Havent tested the test versions tho, but just to let know that it is getting bad signal drops, Im sad to I really liked this kernel, hopefully the problem can get ironed out :)

What are your guys thoughts on interactive vs ondemandplus? which is better for performance / battery?

Been using interactive underclocked with hispeed 806 and max cpu at 1036 and I'm liking the results. Just curious as to everyones 2 cents
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bolanrox:
Since Ondemand plus was added, I have not found the need to switch back to Interactive, which has been my good to prior, WFIW of course.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Blackcrx:
default ondemandplus settings I assume? What has made you stay with it over switching back to interactive? Better battery? performance?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bolanrox:
battery is marginally better (and really every release more or less got a touch better so its hard to say) performance seems to be a little smoother, but again its down to splitting hairs. Try one for a few days then try the other and see which works better in your set up :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gwindlord:
For me interactive shows smoother performance and Antutu Benchmark shows better results, but ondemandplus is good too, just a bit snappier interface. To my mind differences are so little, that it appears to be more matter of habit :)

Agreed, you are better off trying to compare differences between releases than you are between Interactive and OD+ :)

test 05 and some updates

Sooo,

I read test 02 ist running great in terms of performance. That's good :)

I noticed data drops myself on my maguro now. I have started to believe that the data drops are not caused by anything that makes sense (like a bug, a ****ty commit or something), but by something very odd. Therefore, I have re-downloaded the toolchain and re-setup my build environment.

Test 05 is ready for download, it is already updated to the latest Linux 3.0.79 and also includes some changed block tweaks. The block tweaks are different from the ones in test 02 (which performed very good; but for test 05 I even did some benchmarking to find optimal values). That said: I want you to report whether test 02 or the new test 05 are faster / smoother.
