Is this kernel using the 3.4 wifi drivers? Wifi speeds are slower than a previous kernel I was using. Besides that, everything is running great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boype:
No, not the 3.4 drivers. Updated 3.0 drivers from the Google repo.

Can you be more specific than just saying "speeds are slower"?

Thanks for the DB response.

aside from that r28 seems to be running very very smooth with Liquid 2.5

just flashed not to long ago and i can already see Battery is draining very slowly and performance is amazing :)

awesome kernel i must say.

r28-tst01 (wifi drops)

Hi,

I have uploaded a new test version. I have read up on the issue most likely causing the wifi drops and I'm trying some stuff.

To reproduce wifi drops, all you need to do is:

- boot your phone with wifi enabled

- disable wifi

- re-enable wifi

Apparently this is enough to trigger wifi drops when the screen is off.

Let's see if the test version can improve things. If it actually does, there might be a downside: battery drain. That said: keep your eyes open for wifi drops and unusual battery drain.

Best regards
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MartianCeo:
I'll find out what it is. Just got a app to monitor things. Will report back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmoG530:
So far, I'm loving this kernel and it's keeping my phone so cool (no overheating so far). Good work OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Efrenjr15:
On r28 anyone else getting a big lag when setting max clock speed to 1420800? all others speeds work fin but that one seems to lag very badly.

after seeing the lag on System Monitor, it shows Cpu 1 offline and cpu 2 at min clock speed, every now and then cpu1 will get up to speed with cpu 2. weird never seen that before.

Not all gn devices are able to run the 14xxmhz step. I also can not run that freq. -- anything above works fine (SR off).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Efrenjr15:
True, but AK, LK, Franco all ran smooth for me clocked at 1.6 and normally had high freq set at 1.2.-1.4.

idk maybe there is a conflict somewere with the rom im using. Im on liquid 2.5 ( stock kernel LK 6.7) so il test it with another rom when i get home and see what it does.

also i even flashed the stock 4.2.2 kernel like most do in other kernel threads, and still had the same problem. so il do a bit more testing tonight.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MartianCeo:
There's a setting in trickstermod that enables core multitasking. So one core can run at a higher frequency than the other. That's what you're seeing with one being at let's say 384mhz and the other at 1200mhz. Its pushing as much weight as possible to one core and leaving the other one free to do whatever.

Its called multi core power saving. Change it if you dont like the feature. I think it helps greatly for battery life. And your phone may not be able to handle that high frequency, you don't exactly need to be that high unless playing a heavy game or something.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fabur87:
I have had some performance issues and nova launcher had to be reloaded a few times after exiting an app.

So far this is not the version with the best performance for me (I also updated to a newer version of Paranoid Android so perhaps it comes from there).

Maybe, because this is running like AK on my device, but battery life seems to be far better. Ultimatum ROM.

This kernel is banging on my aokp kang

Sent from my Gnex running the most awesome AOKP build
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] splus:
I installed Fancy kernel for the first time couple of days ago, r28. Give it a try...

Before this I was using AK Cylon 736, older release that supports 512 Mhz GPU because in my experience all new SKL releases were less stable and with worse performance.

So here's some observations about the kernel, not praising or criticizing, just some things I noticed:

- Very good on screen battery life. Everywhere people are talking and praising off screen battery life, but how important is is if the battery goes down a part of percent more or less when you're not using it? On screen battery life is FAR more important, IMO, and this kernel really delivers here.

- off screen battery life is little worse, but just little. And I don't really care if the battery is down paltry 1 or 2 percents more in 8 hours of sleep.

- data has been ok for me so far, both mobile and wifi. I haven't tried to measure or compare wifi speeds though.

- performance isn't that good, especially graphics. I can notice some stutters here and there in opening animations and scrolling where I never had them. I use Trickster and have set GPU at 512 with ondemand GPU governor, and have tried Nenamark 2, and was surprised that it gave me around 32 FPS which is typical for 384 Mhz GPU. I then changed the GPU governor to performance and it gave me 37.1 (still little shy of 38.5 I get with other kernels with 512 GPU). Looks like the ondemand GPU governor isn't really working properly. And getting some stutters even with performance GPU gov, so there's something strange going on with graphical side of performance. Btw, I tried changing multicore CPU option from 2 to 0, and upping the max CPU to 1420 and playing with CPU gov settings but no effect on graphics performance and no increased smoothness.

Testing Wifi drop with r28

Hello,

I am having the Wifi drop problem on my maguro. First let me explain what I mean with Wifi drop.

When I am coming back from work at first my Wifi is disabled. Coming closer to my home I have a tasker profile that activates Wifi.

When my router is in the near the Wifi gets connected and emails are checked. GNex is all the time in my pocket and screen is off.

I can hear an email notification sound when an email has arrived so Wifi is fine at that moment i think.

Now I activate the screen, read the mail and screen off again. When I now make a "ping" to my GNex the GNex is not answering the "ping". Wifi has dropped.

I have to turn Wifi off and on while screen is on and after that Wifi is fine even when turning screen off.

I have this problem only with Android 4.2 and so far with all tested kernels AK, Trinity, Fancy r24. Yesterday I tested r28 and the problem still exists.

Shouldn´t r28 adress exactly this Wifi drop? I currently use Purity 5.5 ROM.

Otherwise r24 and r28 are running very good. I have tested r24 kernel for a few days and great battery life on my device.

It was noticeable better than with AK kernels that i have used before.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sajty:
Maybe ROM related,looks like systemUI memory leak.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] motorazrv3:
r28 ext running fantastic. No more greyed WiFi signal bar when I unlock my phone. Signal bar stays blue all the time.

Thx boype for your fantastic kernel and support you offer us. :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gwindlord:
Nah, ROM is the same as with previous versions. Also if renice does not help, this probably is not due to systemui priority - even if I would prefer that due to easy fixing :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] quickstang:
Here is what I've found on wifi stuff. I was on r28 coming from lean kernel. I flashed the rom, gapps & then kernel. No issues.

Last night I flashed the test build of r28 & wifi wouldn't connect to the network. Then it would really quick & disappear again.

I then went into the goo app, chose rom, gapps then test kernel & flashed. Obviously wiping cache. Booted & no wifi issues.

So I have to dirty flash the rom even with the same kernel it seems. So those that have issues, you may want to give that a try. I've used many other kernels & when flashing newer versions I never had to flash the rom as well. Only time was when switching kernels from one dev to the other.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LibertyMonger:
I tried this kernel and after rebooting I had no nav bar or status bar. I been having this issue with a few different ROM's lately and it seemed like a theme issue, I know it's not the kernel but for some reason something triggers this. The ROM's are great and the kernels I use are great but do not know why this happens. Sometimes if I wait for a while they will appear and everything will be fine. So I reflashed a different kernel and it fixed it temporarily. Not trying to blame the kernel just trying to get answers, it seems whenever something negative is posted about the great work here people start getting snotty and offensive and don't want to hear it lol. I will try again later with a different ROM when I get time. Thanks for this kernel and the app is great!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] omid900:
Well, since here much people are reporting some problems and general feedback, I must say that I am really happy with r28. I am using it with last PA, haven't reboot since yesterday morning and the phone is just quick, very quick, as after reboot. Have absolute no problem with wifi.

I always unchecked wifi optimization on wife options and turn on wifi high performance on trickster.

Boype, to me this is best version of your kernel, the battery life is really better and I love the performance, it is awesome!

Finally, I must say I use the last official PA rom and my settings in trickster are;

Sioplus

RABS 512

ondemandplus

Min 192

Max 1228

Min screen off 192

Max screen on 350

Wife high performance on

Adaptive screen on

Multicore saving at 2

Fsync on

Zram off

A great test for your situation to see if it affects the same situation: disable WiFi Optimization in WiFi advanced settings and then enable the kernels WiFi performance feature. If you do, please report any changes or lack thereof back to the thread. Would love to know if it has an impact or not.

I don't think it's a matter of getting snotty, defensive, etc. I think it's a matter of making sure people are doing things appropriately before posting apparent issues. Actually, this is one of the nicest threads in which I've participated. There are a few simple things that people can do before reporting that can nix a lot of noise in threads.

1. Read the OP before posting as it could contain answers or disclaimers about known issues along with potential fixes

2. Always back-trace, rework, redo, flash, reflash, etc. in the exact and precise manner to see if you can duplicate the issue (it's so important to make sure things are done consistently to eliminate variables and reduce it to the ROM, kernel, etc.)

3. After exhausting all resources and possibilities, make sure your post includes all of the appropriate information, including logs, scripts, and whatever you can capture. It also helps to provide details on what you're running, such as ROM and version, kernel and version, stock or custom settings, etc.

Hope that helps in your interpretation of what people are trying to accomplish when responding, as well as future posts you make in any dev related forum.

Just tested this with the first r28ext version(not the test version) and still wifi not available when screen goes off.

Disable/Enable Wifi again will fix the drop. After that also with screen off everything is fine.

I don't see why you couldn't add other apps to the whitelist. When adding a launcher, you would just use the name of the process you are white listing, found by running PS from the terminal. For action launcher pro, the process name was "com.chrislacy.actionlauncher.pro" , so I added that to the list.

Enough with reporting wifi issues during sleep.

Seriously are people not taking any time to read previous pages. WiFi issues during sleep are not because of Fancy Kernel. Boype tried to implement a fix for the issue on his kernel which did not resolve the problem (lets thank him for trying!!). This is a general 4.2 Android issue, it's been stated MANY times. Don't believe me? Flash a 4.1 rom (bugless beast maybe?) and see if you ever have the issue reappear! You wont!

It has nothing to do with Fancy Kernel. I already posted a few pages back a work around and more details explaining exactly where the problem stems from. However, for those of you that are too lazy to READ or use the search function I will post it again. (Ok it was a bit further back than I thought ;))

Enabling WiFi high performance and the disabling Wifi optimizations as recommended by AK does NOT solve the problem. The data drop during sleep is an issue with all 4.2 devices. Sadly Google REFUSES to do anything about this. Kernel devs have been trying to fix Google's lack of competence with little luck.

From post #1823

"Those of you experiencing wifi drops / data stalls on WiFi.... During sleep

For what's it's worth buckmarble of Project Elite droidforums found somewhat of a work-a-round.

"I have read through that link before (https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=40065). I was trying something at the kernel level to see if I could find a solution but it was a dead end. I have discovered a 'work around' that does fix it but has to be done every time WiFi is toggled. It seems related to the sleep policy not being saved or reinstated every time WiFi is toggled on and off. What you need to do is change the sleep policy to something different, reboot, change it back, and reboot again and WiFi will stay on during deep sleep."

I can confirm wifi will function correctly until it's toggled on/off (or your device reboots).

Sleep Policy = Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep. (Settings -> Wi-Fi -> Advanced)"
