You may use Semaphore Manager. But I guess that with GUI you mean an interface that it is not needed to type the values.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] DesmoDavid:
Hi again. :) I'm running PA 4.3 with semaphore 1.5.3j. Sometimes, when I writing something in Tapatalk or WhatsApp (using SwiftKey), the phone just freezing for 2/3 second and then go normally. PA, semaphore or SwiftKey problem? :) thanks

From Nexus2²
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratosk:
Hi,

I don't think it's kernel related.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] DesmoDavid:
Yes, me too. Probably a SwiftKey problem with 4.3. Infact, when the phone wake up again, the keyboard is close. ;)

BTW great work with your last kernel! :) IMHO the best kernel for Nexus 4!

pls this kernel its fit with PA 3.95 (4.3) ?? and good for battery life ??
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Bad-Pixel:
Hello

I'm discovering and using this kernel since 1 day (before I was on franco). I made a clean installation of everything (rom kernel and other): Slimbean 8 and Semaphore 1.4.1 (lastest for 4.2.2). Kernel is really stable, I also undervolted cpu frequencies as always with 0 problems, but I got 3hr SOT with a normal usage (while i was used to get 4 - 4,5 hr SOT with last configuration). Someone can explain me how to set properly this kernel by its app? I searched on semaphore website if there were some faq or other, but I didn't find anything. Maybe I'm using some bad settings and they're causing this battery drain. For example, how to set the Ondemand settings? Thanks in advance

Message from molesarecoming:

3.96-20130810 is essentially JWR, but with JSS additions. it should hopefully end freeze-gate. its kernel is JWR, you can flash frankos official over this.

Yep, PA 3.96 20130810... (the dev one)

I just tried twice and it works for me.

Have you flashed JWR version of Semaphore? (instead of JSS as for PA 3.95)

EDIT : Sorry, I misunderstood your question... I'm using built-in touchwake... Dunno about touch control

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratosk:
Touch wake is active when the screen goes off for touchwake delay period (you may change this values in Semaphore Manager).
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Imppy:
Thanks for that response...will this drain battery?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] philidor:
Not in a significant way. I don't feel difference

Edit I think that it prevent your phone to go to sleep for some second (you can chose how much time) after the screen go off.

I think is irrelevant for battery drain ... But very useful function!

(Work only if your screen automatically go off, if you put it off with the mechanical button it not work)

Edit edit :) you are to fast stratosk!

Inviato dal mio GT-P3100 usando Tapatalk 4
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratosk:
Yes, for touchwake delay, kernel will hold a wake lock preventing device go to sleep (screen will be off, of course).

The battery drain for small delays (I use 30s) is tiny.

Hello there.I've installed your kernel, everything seems to be running great so far! Just a small question though.I am having difficulties in screen calibration...I've been using Franco's kernels and his app for this so I don't know exactly what to do.I've searched the thread and found some info but each time I try to adjust the values the screen gets ****ed up! Is there a way to import the values from Franco's app? Not auto import, just manual import or something like that.thanx anyway!

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] twowheeler:
Fresh install. No battery improving apps, this is the proof that this kernel is great.

Running on 2 cores most of the time. And keep in mind that this is just the first full cycle
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratosk:
If it's OK with you, no problem.

I guess this value depends on usage. With 2048 value you read 2MB of data in every read operation.

It may be good if you read large files, but in many cases you just read useless info.

From Nexus⁴
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] thracemerin:
Ok, so basically something or many things keep waking your phone up immediately after it goes to sleep, to prevent this situation which is worse for battery than being awake, the kernel will hold a wakelock, this doesn't mean that it's kernel related, in all likelyhood its an app or multiple apps.

It's a very famous wakelock & it was there in 4.2 as well..

Hello Stratosk

I am honored to get back and use your kernel on N4 after amazing experience in sgs with GB and JB.

The kernel seems to be good, and I think it got better after implementing the dynamic hotplug. Is there any recommended settings for better battery life, with good performance?

Best regards.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratosk:
Thanks!

Recommended settings are default one.

You may use CPU undervolting and/or use less aggressive settings in ondemand if you need better battery life.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] stratospr:
A few more tries...

Cm 15/08 + latest bootloader + 1.5.3j or 1.5.4j = baseband unknown

Cm 17/08 + 1.5.3j or 1.5.4j = baseband unknown

Cm 17/08 + latest Franco = all OK... :(
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] McPh1st0:
So far so good...

I'm happy with the latest kernel (1.5.4j).

On medium usage, Wifi/GPS always on, default kernel settings (well, running all 4 cores but undervolted by 0.1V). With a couple more charging cycles things oughta look better....;)
