Sorry should have guess but I wanted it to work so badly lol been loving your kernels since way back

4.3 is still too wonky for me on any ROM either for battery life or other stuff so thats why im sticking with 4.2 for now till next month

thanks anyway
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] f100cleveland:
You are trying to install a 4.2 touchwiz kernel on top of aosp based slim 4.2....That won't work. You need to upgrade to 4.3 based slim and download faux's 4.3 aosp kernel.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] fidorulz:
Well recovery was the issue for the install. The ROM was the issue for the kernel.

ill wait on upgrading the 4.3 for another month. Had a flashing frenzy a week back and tried 4 different ROMs on 4.3 and all had some stuff that bugged me vs 4.2

Sorry, kernel flashing noob here. Some low level questions hope you guys can help.

I have an international i9505 LTE, flashed with a GPe 4.3 rom (CoOoL_BoY's Samsung GALAXY S4 Google Play Edition 4.3. Flashed it with Phil3759's [i9505][CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch recovery.

If I want to flash faux's kernel, do I just copy the zip file to my SD card and flash the ZIP from recovery?

On a i9505 LTE but with GPe rom do I use the /jflte/jb43/? Or the /jgedlte/jb43/ kernel?

I'm trying to save as much battery life as possible, are the settings on post 2 up to date?

Regarding this...

Why did you check both boxes from the bottom?

I mean Eco Mode disables core 2 and 3, allowing only core 0 and 1 to fire up, while Snake Charmer forces all cores to the maximum frequency... Thus making core 0 and 1 fire up at maximum frequency whenever used, while core 2 and 3 remain offline?

I don't think this works as expected. I mean, core 2 and 3 are offline, but core 0 and 1 don't seem to be ramped up to the maximum frequency whenever used. They alternate : core 0 goes to frequency ~300, while core 1 is ramped up at 1.7 / 1.8 GHz; core 0 goes to frequency ~1.2 GHz, while core 1 is ramped up to 800 MHz... I don't get it. Something doesn't seem to work right here :confused:
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stijndebruin:
Snake charmer limits the cores to a set max. It doesn't ramp them up.

So his settings are battery friendly. Only two cores to a set maximum.
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Formhault:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stijndebruin:
It is the max frequency you choose with the slider. Let's call it under clocking.

The snake charmer makes sure that this max (underclocked) frequency is applied to all cores and not just one....... I think:D

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] stijndebruin:

Can someone knowledgeable PLEASE explain? [MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION]?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] faux123:
The cores are plugged and unplugged based on system load.

Why Eco mode? Sometimes games or apps will use all available cores on purpose to give very smooth experience but at cost of extra battery life but sometimes users may prefer battery life with acceptable performance that's when Eco mode comes in and override apps settings and limit those apps to only dual core

hello,i just flashed faux kernel for aosp roms and my phone doesn't boot anymore,it's on the bootanimation and it vibrates every 5 seconds or so and just doesn't boot.I have the aosp rom from jamal. thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Formhault:
So... I can enable Eco Mode and still be able to play games as smooth as with Eco Mode turned off? Cause that's what I just tried now, and Arcane Legends has never been smoother before.

So, Eco Mode limits the cores used to 2, but if an app (say, a game), requires all 4 cores active, it just goes on and uses them all?

What about Snake Charmer? Can you please elaborate how that works?

Oh and allow me to give you a little suggestion. It'd be freaking awesome if you could include informations on what each feature in your awesome kernel does :D if not in FauxClock app, then in the opening post, maybe :D

---------- Post added at 12:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:38 AM ----------

Did you flash the right kernel variant?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] faux123:
Unlike many other dual core solutions out there (where they SIMPLY TURN OFF 2 cores), my Eco Mode goes much deeper than just turning off 2 cores. My Intelliplug algorithm is AUTOMATICALLY re-tuned once Eco Mode enabled for the most optimal settings using it. That's why when running with Eco mode on, you barely notice the difference between the two while benefiting from the extra battery savings.

Snake Charmer is simply a special cap algorithm to cap the max CPU frequencies of all the cores. Qualcomm multi-core is different from many other multi-core solutions. Qualcomm uses asymmetrical SMP which means each core can operate independently from each other (ie, each core can have it's very own min/max freq and even its own governor), but in practice, it's not good and could cause issues with some of the software. Because of the asymmetrical nature, most CPU controller out there can only adjust the CPU frequency of the first core, and all other cores still can run wildly to the system maximum. With Snake Charmer, it will tame those wild beasts by forcing them all to obey the Max frequencies set by the user using FauxClock. Snake Charmer name was an inside joke to tame the snapdragons (which is a type of snake) ;)

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] trueking7:

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] clinthess:
Faux, is this newest kernel version more sensitive to under volting? The same amount from v11 caused substantial lag on v12. (50mV). Reduced it to 37.5 and it went away. Now smooth as butter once again
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Original Android Development] Formhault:
I see.

Well, with Eco Mode on or off, very intensive games still work perfectly fine. I was living with the impression that even with Eco Mode on, if an app requires more horsepower than what 2 cores can provide, the other 2 cores are fired up.

Ah, yes. I know SMP. Actually, I learned it was better - better power saving etc.

So... Snake Charmer should be on, that's for sure.

I've had serious lags on faux kernel from 007 and up. (007 works best for me)

After a clean install of omega rom v12 the newest kernel 012 seems smoother than ever but after a while I get bad lag when scrolling in web browser (Chrome dolphin boat all lag when scrolling) and the occasional stutter in ui as a whole. Clearing the memory (killing apps) solves it for a little while but the lagging isseu gets progressively worse until I reboot.

I tried different thermal settings turned of zram tried different governors to no avail. I don't know what causes this, but I'm guessing it has something to do with memory management.

Any ideas or solutions are welcome as I love fauxes work and would like to run the newest kernel with all the optimizations.
