I'm coming from a g2 on cm10.1 so don't mind Me if I sound like a total noob but how do I adjust the settings with out script? Setcpu app or is modding the script my only option? I'm just looking for great battery life with screen on. seriously with the hardware on the is phone there's no slowdowns and the over clock to me is not needed (especially coming from the g2 that was handling same ROM perfectly fine) I'm just looking to max out battery life with screen on(I use gtalk and gmail daily so not modding and breaking it).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Use intelidemand gov and just enjoy the battery goodness.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
you can use an app. it will just override the script
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
thanks for taking a look. I think I created another bug with a theme so I've jumped ROMs....lol..or maybe my ORD got the best of me.. ;)

in regards to a relatively stock kernel, not sure off the top of my head. most of them are rather heavily modded. Adam by Wanam used to be very stock but it appears to have mods now... HERE if you wanted to take a look at the git...or HERE for his thread...figured I'd save you a couple clicks

trying cm10.2 unofficial right now...working well for the most part. wanted to play with focal, even though it's buggy as all hell right now. looks very promising. if you need any testing on a 4.3 aosp kernel I can be a guinea pig, but I'm not in any rush...knowing me I could change ROMs before tomorrow...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Really? First post of the thread. There are links to an aosp 4.2 version and an aosp 4.3 version.

And like 5 posts above yours there is a whole discussion about how this works on 4.3.

---------- Post added at 10:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 AM ----------

I use KTweaker, which is ktoonz's custom app for his kernel. Since Chronic is a fork of Ktoonz's kernel it works really well.

The only catch is that you have to install the ktoonz kernel to get the app. But then you can install Chronic overtop and the app remains.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
or just pull the apk out of his zip :P

btw skipjacks you still have your sensation? can you confirm the "mic" bug in my latest build? i dont really trust the "sheep"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
I haven't been reading up on the bug. Send me a pm of what the problem supposedly is and I will flash the lasted build tonight to test it for you. Let me know if there is any specific way you need it tested and I will gladly do that for you. It will have to be this evening though because I don,t have the sensation with me right now.

Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] NYCHitman1:
Dope ass kernel. Just sayin'!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
it appears there are some graphical issues with the newest CM build (0807 was fine, 0808 is not). i guess there were GPU commits. Had to switch kernels in the meantime. No rush on an update I was just making you aware.

Cheers
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] geekilized:
What kind of graphical issues? Could you give some examples? I am running this kernel on the 0808 build and haven't seen say graphical issues so far.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
doubt I can catch it. I don't have way to video tape it right now either. I'm not the only one. it's visual tearing when flicking. i first noticed it in playerpro. that was the worst app. i could notice it in menus a bit too, but not as much as playerpro.

I'm not the only one either. it's mentioned here and here
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] whytechapel_x:
nvm
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
Chronic has an update through OTA in KT's app? I think you are referencing KT kernel. I already switched to the 0807 tmo KT build to fix it earlier today.

geekilized asked for details so I was just pointing out what was happening and that I wasn't the only one experiencing the issue.

Thanks though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] whytechapel_x:
My bad lmao. Sorry.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
no worries, thanks for trying to help anyway. I forgot to hit thanks on the post too...I see you edited it so I chose the more recent one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
there were some commits to the kernel upstream that we dont have thats why there are display glitches... i was away all weekend. i'll have it up soon. i'm also gonna start a "nightly" server. it will have a unofical build of my kernels daily with the changes from that day. this will help in case cm updates crap and i'm not around to update the op. because i usually test a new cm build every couple days and get the latest kernel changes. and flash it on my device. i just never have time to go update all 5 threads every single day lol. but this way the nightly users of cm and stuff wont have to miss out. as long as i was home that day at one point to compile a build. you'll have it.. i have a build server now. so all my builds are accessable by the web if i want them to be. i'm going to set up a specific folder for unofical kernel builds and have my build script always output them there. so any build that compiles you will have access to. but dont come reporting bugs for unoffical builds. only builds that are version number tagged
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Paulenski:
I've only noticed the tearing once and it never came back lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
Disabling HW overlays in developer options has stopped the tearing altogether for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
tearing is cuz of an outdated kernel. i'll be posting it shortly. i have a lot of projects right now. finally got 10.2 booting on old htc phones
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Okay people....if you haven't click Albino's 'thanks' button today you are wrong.:D One of the hardest working devs here! Don't forget to make him feel loved!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Romcrazguy:
im really wanting to flash this kernel but i want to make sure that dual camera ,smart scrolling and pause will work on TW
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Just flash it and find out. Make a nandroid backup of your rom first then flash Chronic. See if it works with all the ways you want it to. If it doesn't you can easily restore your nandoird or just reflash your ROM and that will reinstall the original kernel that comes with the ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Romcrazguy:
Tried it didnt work
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
what????

you need to go post in the q and a forum if you are having problems backing up and flashing a kernel. this is not the place to discuss that.

skipjacks.. quick question. how is the newest 4.3 build running for you? did you notice any slow down? i dont know if its my kernel or just the cm nightly. i did sloppily merge a commit for sched so let me know if you notice a decrease in performance. i trust your judgement lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
I only tried Carbon ROM for 4.3 as Im addicted to the transparent status bar.

And I had to give up on it for now because its not quite ready for prime time on 4.3 yet. (Its only had 2 builds so far. Nothing unusual)

So I don't have days worth of testing for you.

But, I was using Chronic on Carbon for the half a day I ran 4.3 and it seemed perfectly fine. The rom was snappy and responsive. So I dont think anything is wrong with the kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
I figured it out I reverted something I didn't need to. All is good now
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] 13silencer13:
I was looking on here for some info on this but didnt find it will tjis kernel help with the overheating around the camera area sorry new to the gs4 just got it a weekago was on the OG galaxy 4g on cm 10.1 dont want to change roms right now just the kernel to see if it helps I know it not going to be cold but dont want it to burn my ear lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Paulenski:
I noticed using focal causes some pretty high clocks causing it to warm up a bit
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
focal is NO WAY near complete. lol, in my rom threads people are reporting bugs about it like its a supported feature of the rom :P

basically anything that happens with focal. disregard
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Paulenski:
Haha yeah I completely understand, just noticed it sure did use the cpu a lot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Paulenski:
Albino kernel 2.01 causes complete loss in service with the new CM 8/19 nightly, I noticed a commit that changed a network thing. Maybe someone else can also test this with the new nightly?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
What commit? On cms kernel? Link? Ive been busy with my other projects the past few days
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Paulenski:
Oh nvmd, looked at it, just apn additions. Still don't know why I completely lost service after flashing your kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheAnarchist1:
I can confirm that I have also lost signal on this kernel with the latest nightly. The same was also the case on the 8/14 Ktoonsez kernel.

EDIT: I am not completely sure what broke signal, but most likely a commit. I am sure a sync up with the latest CM will remedy whatever happened. Usually does

^_^
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] extrem0:
I don't have network signal too. I'm on 0819 CM nightly. Tried a build from 17,18 aug Carbon and had the same issue. Will try to update rom and then flash kernel again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Im on 8-19 carbon and network signal works fine for mw
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] extrem0:
It's funny.

I updated to 0820 build then reboot. Then went to recovery and flash ChromicKernel. Wiped dalivk+cache, then rebooted. No network.

Then I went to recovery. Flashed 0820 build again (without wiping) then flashed ChromicKernel again. Now network is working. I remember that I lost APN when flashed kernel and wiped dalvik+cache. Didn't try to add APN info.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] zoman7663:
Running VERY well on Highly Modified Alpha 7.2SE. Best Battery I've seen on any kernel I've used so far. Avg 1.5-2% drop in battery/hour (some wifi/4G/LTE). MOST EXCELLENT! All functions appears to be working well, BT, WIFI, Quick wake up when receiving calls. Although the voltage table seems to be a bit off from what I'm used to when undervolting but no biggie, still works! Thanks for your hard work! :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
just for referenc what is that rom base? TW or AOSP?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] zoman7663:
tw 4.2.2 (mga)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Blades:
Lots of new commits from CM.. See that you merged most. New kernel coming soon? Last I tried 4.3, GPS was still buggy/switching off. That should be fixed now. Thanks for the kernel, its no holds barred, no 'use my 3rd party app', etc etc... just terrific. No pushing attempted, just setting the envelope on fire.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lost_:
Curious... "a bit off" as in much higher than stock?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] zoman7663:
No, not at all. I was using Faux's Kernel Enhancement app and without the script provided with the kernel, the voltage table dropped in increments different from the normal 5/12.5/25. Trying to undervolt by 50 ended up being either 48 or 60. That sort of thing. This isn't the only kernel that I've seen that with. Of course it may have been the app itself. I had used it with BioShock kernel and it was the standard 5/12.5/25, So I never even considered that it may have been the app until I saw it with yet another kernel.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] extrem0:
I don't think albino will drop this kernel development. He's still developing to HTC Sensation even after his sensation got dead. He'll probably just merge newer commits time to time and add any good future features.

This is the first kernel I tried in Galaxy S4 after rooting and flashing custom rom (CM10.2). Didn't try another kernel but I think this is already great.

yeah i got a couple things in the works. just testing..., i also wrote some code to make the governor change across all cores
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] bofiana:
Albino - my previous comment got deleted cuz I just happened to compare the greatness of ur kernel to another one but just wanted to say thanks for ur development, especially for ur TW kernel. Every other TW kernel I've flashed on my S4 doesn't compare performance wise to this kernel. Don't understand why I don't hear more hype about this kernel in the TW ROM threads but oh well, their loss.

Looking forward to what u have in store for future releases!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] aaldiar:
These Chronic Kernels are the only ones I use. Combined with ROM Toolbox Pro my SlimBean lasts forever and than some. Plan on ordering a Mugen battery and possibly go 3 or 4 days in between charges. I average 2 - 4 hours of screen on time and plug in every other day. Many thanks for such great works.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
That is my set up with similar results.

The biggest advantage I see with Chronic is stability. (That is a weird sentence....think about it....)

I NEVER see random reboots on Chronic. Never. I have had my phone powered one for 2 weeks since installing the Slim stable build. Not a single reboot.

Albino has been making my phones better for almost a year back to the Sensation days!

Neat default boot-animation. Changed it to gold I see..Going to test out v2.3 instead of 2.31.. FWIW I'm on CM 10.3 'gold' release.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
its cuz you need to be on the very latest nightly
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lost_:
So 2.31 is only for latest nightly CM and not for earlier 4.3.x AOSP? I'm on Liquid Smooth 2.10 and the display with is completely messed up with Chronic 2.31. Boot anim turned brown/gold from blue, then when boot completes the resolution is enlarged with ghost image and distorted colors. Went back to 2.2 for now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] atlharp:
Mine did the same thing with the new official 4.3.1 AOKP nightly (10/18). I am not sure what is happening, but the same thing happened when I flashed ktoonsez's updated kernel as well. So I don't think this isolated to Chronic's update. Freak stuff. :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
COme on guys its not that hard.....

AOKP/Liquid smooth/Slim didn't sync with CM yet. but they will. every rom uses CM's display libs.

there is nothing wrong with my kernel or ktoonz kernel... your rom developers need to sync with CM... there were changes made to the ROM source and the kernel source related to display. if you dont have Both changes then you get issues..

just wait for your rom developers to update their ROM. i HIGHLY doubt they wont merge the CM changes...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] albinoman887:
i also kinda hate ti when people go "oh well back to blah blah blah for me" like i'm loosing out on something...

its not like my kernel stopped working. you all are just crack flashers lol

if you really cant wait.. get v2.3

i breifly released a v2.3 version without the latest cm changes....

just go browse my server for it

www.chronic-buildbox.com/jf/

the funniest part is,,,, either way i'm screwed....if i didnt merge the new updates then all the CM users would be complaining lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] atlharp:
That is what I was thinking that this was related to the source code as opposed to tweaks in the individual kernel builds. Thanks again for your work. :thumbup:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lost_:
Albinoman, you're the man! My apologies if my earlier post came across as a complaint. It wasn't and I was just reporting my experience with 2.31. I have no problem with 2.2 and I'm glad you shared your work with us.

Was just asking to get this clarified (with a yes/no) and you got that cleared up. Many thanks for your excellent work.

Which one i should flash if running 4.4 KitKat?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Per Albino it doesn't matter. The kernel doesn't have differences between 4.3 and 4.4 other than ramdisk.

So the 4.3 kernel should work on 4.4 roms.

dont worry i'll update. I had a media server crash so i'm busy restoring all my stuff.

Until then. why not flash my cm11 rom? it has my kernel baked in

True that. I always end up flashing chronic back after trying other kernels. The best kernel for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] MrFuZZy92:
Question... Can i flash this kernal when i already run CM nightly from cyanogenmod?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] POQbum:
From what I can tell, this kernel right now is only for 4.3 and the latest nightly is 4.4 -- although it's only 0.1 difference, it's a major difference in the coding of Android and I don't think they're compatible.

The creator of this kernel puts out his a CM11 nightly and he has his latest kernel in there (for some reason he doesn't update his official kernel thread, but all of his kernel changes are in his CM11 build)
