I flashed 1.7.6j on the latest alpha of SlimKat and it works great, so it should work an rastakat too :) But you have to flash the Wifi Fix to make wifi work the right way. You find the zip a few pages back in this thread, i think its called deprimator or something like this!

Believe me, KitKat with Semaphore is out of this universe :victory:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] meangreenie:
That sounds awesome.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratosk:
Thanks for your support and for your kind words, my friend!

Enjoy your new device. I hope we will meet again in N6 forums... :)

I'm happy you like Semaphore. :)

Unfortunately, I can't do much for this. It's just a conflict. Kernel and userspace try to handle LEDs at the same time.

Are you definitely using the j version? I had tearing with the other version but none on j
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] xFuGiToiDx:
Has anyone tried pairing this kernel with the n5 KitKat port ROM on n4?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] orangestrawberry:
Ah thanks for pointing that out. I'll download the right one. Seems that this becomes the best kernel to go with kk as the ak kernel seems to be glitchy with its s2w.

Many thanks

Yes. Works better than any other kernel. Download the deprimator zip 2 pages back and the j version of the semaphore and flash deprimator and then the kernel. Both WiFi and bponury touch control app will then work. I've tried the ak kernel but had reboots

Please guys... Stop talking about Semaphore/KitKat compatibility...

It gets more and more hard to not flash any KitKat build in my Nexus 4...

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] orangestrawberry:
Do it. Nothing in 4.3 that the nexus 5 port can't do better! Very smooth indeed
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] mightybrick:
Except for the Bluetooth glitching. If you don't use Bluetooth, then all is good.

Or just wait a few weeks or so until the official build. We've been waiting months for the release guys! Those extra days can't be that hard right
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] dmourao:
I agree. I do want to try Kit Kat, but when I think of facing bugs and things like that... I'd rather wait for the official version.

I have flash this over ak kernel, booted up but when i checked in trickster the governor was at performance. Flash sema then wifi fix. Did i do anything?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] thracemerin:
You need to flash it over the stock kernel that comes with your ROM to ensure that you have the correct ramdisk before installing Semaphore.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] eluspo:
Okey thanks for the info, but sema booted fine. Will restore defaults via sema manager fix it? So that il have the default settings.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] thracemerin:
It might fix it, but it's not recommended to flash Semaphore over another custom kernel without flashing the stock kernel and components for your ROM first. If you are on a custom ROM you can flash it by dirty flashing your ROM with no wipes, if you're on stock there are some flashable zips around, or you can fastboot the boot.img from the Google Nexus Firmware page.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nithin1992:
Its not only the settings that might be different but the ram disk modifications might hinder as well. Just flash the stock kernel first(you can find a flashable zip) or dirty flash the ROM first and then flash semaphore.

You can go to settings-apps-semaphore manager and clear app data to reset all changes made in the app as well
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] eluspo:
I did that in sema but whenever i clear data, it goes back to performance governor.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratosk:
Please try a clean installation as thracemerin suggested.

Temperature of the CPU. When it hits a threshold, the LED will glow red by default and at different strengths depending on threshold hit.

It happens when you keep on flashing one kernel over another..Default settings gets mesed up..Like Governors changing to something other than Ondemand & change in Gpu freq is the result of this thing..Thta's why it's always advised to flash Stock kernel before flashing any other kernel..

Staying at home not feeling well so i edited a script given in this thread.

Run this for Kelghu 2.2 gamma 212k screen settings.

use something like smanager (run as root) --> read system settings in semaphore and you should read this as red value

0 64 255 0 255 0 206 97 2

Had to package it as a zip to make it possible to upload

Still don't know if I really like this, but this makes it real easy to switch between profiles.

Could upload the zip with some more profiles if people want? (And look for the original uploader to give him credit of course)

I've heard a lot about Semaphore Kernel and it's only recently that I tried it while on Nexus 5 ROM ported to Nexus 4. I did not have any expectations as I was whoring between different kernels hoping to find one that would at least ease the lags and yield a close to decent battery life and this kernel is actually the last oneI tried.

Man, oh.. man! This is the only kernel that smoothens the scrolling in the email app considering the hundreds of emails I have. It's not yet Jelly Bean-ish smooth, but given the ROM's status, what a big surprise. On one hand, the battery is on par when I was on stock 4.3 ROM and kernel. Long story short, I became a fan, a huge,huge fan.

So, thank you. I would forgo my donation this time as I will donate a meager amount to my fellow Filipinos who were victims of the strongest typhoon ever.

Cheers..
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratosk:
Thanks so much for your kind words.

Bravo for your choice to donate typhoon victims!

This kernel is pretty good. Battery and Performance is very good with n5 kitkat port running on Art. Thanks sir [MENTION=3750240]stratosk[/MENTION]
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
Indeed.. I'm on this kernel for 2 days now. I couldn't be any happier. And one thing I noticed, people in this thread are nice and respectful. Let's keep it up.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
Allow me to ask this question please. I tried searching but this is all I got "Search is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for the inconvenience."

Those of you who are using the ported Nexus 5 ROM should notice that the auto brightness is abnormal. It cranks up to really high level and it doesn't adjust to lower level automatically unless the screen is turned off. This is causing unnecessary battery drain and eye sore for me.

I would like to use Semaphore Kernel's auto brightness setting instead. But in Semaphore Manager, the only options available under LCD Calibration are "to set" min and maximum values, as well as Linear Mapping Mode. I tried lowering the maximum value but it didn't do nothing.

So.. I think the Semaphore Auto Brightness driver has to be enabled somewhere. Would anyone tell me where I can I find it and how to enable.

Thanks a lot in advance.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] snak3ater:
Switch from linear to exponential & then adjust the min max values according to your needs.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] snak3ater:
It's because the Kernel is just perfect.Mostly what people ask here are the questions related to the kernel features & how to use them.Very few posts regarding bugs & issues.Dev himself is nice here..Answering to each & every question no matter how many times it has been asked before.Other people also try to follow and thus you get helpful people in this thread :D
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] zorginho:
Finally I tried semaphore for about a week paired with purity.

I have to say that the performance are really good the kernel seems someway more smooth than the others specially on scrolling lists, the battery is the very strong point, the life is unbelievable!!

The only things that I really miss are the audio mods like faux sound or franco audio hacks.

Thx stratosk for your work!

Stratosk, i see that the kernel has some sort of ideal frequentie where it tries to stay the longest.

I've lowered the max freq (to 1ghz). Will this mess up the hotplug settings?

Semaphore auto brightness driver is implemented only for SGS devices.

In N4 kernel there are some settings for the LED driver.

Im running the same combo as you are . While performance is fantastic, battery for me has not been good. This is the 2 time I clean flashed Semaphore and Purity, and my usage patter does not change. For some my battery drains very quick with this kernel. Any suggestions would be appreciated as you seem very happy with this combo. :laugh:

Try to undervolt, set max cores to 2 (dual core mode) and set the min to 2. Like this u wont have lag unless u game but u will save tons of battery

Oh another question

Does this kernel have gamma setting
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ruicc:
I don't see on the OP, nothing telling us that this kernel would work on 4.4 kit kat.

You can use it at your own risk!

On semaphore.gr it it's told:

'j' versions are for JSS15J ROMs only

The normal files are for JWR66V & JWR66Y ROMs only

4.4 is KRT16M

Besides, Android 4.4 kitkat has a modified kernel, in order to run on devices with 512 Mb ram.

I advise you to wait, until Stratosk upgrade the kernel to 4.4.

Yes correct. If you touch the screen within the 'delay' period you will wake the device. After the delay your phone will go to sleep automatically.

If you turn off the screen using the power button touch wake will not be enabled.

A few pages back you explained "early demand". It would be nice to have that clear and friendly explanation on the OP as part of a FAQ.

I've been following this thread since you started it and just today decided to flash your kernel and download the manager. Explanations like that of Early Demand, should be on the first page in my opinion (maybe make use of HIDE tags).

I followed it because I liked the way the OP was laid out; clear, concise and organized. This also looks like original work, coded specifically for the device and not bloated with features that haven't been analyzed first, which says a lot about the end result, at least to me. It just feels right.

I've been using Franco's work since I bought my N4 a few months ago and his kernel is also outstanding.

Since your application is free I'm planning a donation soon, you totally deserve it. The amount of time you're spending here, coding and supporting users should be rewarded, no doubt.

Please consider a FAQ, most of us are here to learn and benefit from knowledge of developers like you. It'd be truly appreciated.

Some questions, are you planning to expose gamma values in your manager? Will Semaphore support Westwood as TCP Congestion? Will it support thermal throttle?

Thanks, have a nice day :)

Cheers
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratosk:
Thanks for your nice comments. :o

I usually try to update my website will this kind of info. I admit that sometimes it's outdated but real job, family, kids don't leave enough free time for everything I want to do. But, I'll do my best for something better.

Yes, I'm going to expose the gamma values in my app. I'm not sure about Westwood (I have to investigate why it really does). No plans for thermal tweaks.

BTW, my app is not only free it's also open source (GPLv2) :)

Have a nice day too, my friend.

It looks as though the stock kernel that comes with the 4.4 release is newer than the current trees in AOSP (this is based solely on the commit id in the kernel string), so we'll see if they push new sources for 4.4 or if they are sticking with the 4.3 version of the kernel sources.
