Kernel seemed a bit more snappy and responsive than the stock CM 10.1 nightly kernel.

I did run into some issues, still unclear if it's app or kernel related.

Using SetCPU to manage the frequency & governor was resulting in a lot of lock up and eventually restart situations. Frequencies were never set to exceed the stock value, but to lower and conserve battery. However this may in fact be an issue with SetCPU. Has anyone run into a similar situation or use another app to manage the frequencies without issue?

Just saying you have random reboots is not helpful whatsoever. Provide last ksmg. That would actually be helpful and he might actually see what your problem is and be able to fix it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] Ker~Man:
I'm blown away at how many people are "following" [MENTION=5072378]s4freak[/MENTION] and completely disregarding the dev's hard work on this kernel by not even trying it YOURSELVES. Maybe, if like the individual above said, you would have provided the appropriate ksmg you would have received more help. [MENTION=3441018]xtechx[/MENTION], I'm in 100% agreement with you -- if you don't provide proper documentation, any help shouldn't be expected. [MENTION=5072378]s4freak[/MENTION] and the few posters following - you should all be ashamed of yourselves. Those after s4freak, you are simply "sheep" - go ahead and follow your "leader." [MENTION=277927]albino[/MENTION] - great kernel. One of my fav's and most def appreciate your work. Nice 1st kernel! :good::highfive:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] s8freak:
I didn't tell anybody to not use anything in any way. I simply stated I was having random reboots.

I don't know who "everybody who's following me" is I'm not a "leader" all I've seen is two people.

I'm sure the dev does work hard. Fantastic...his kernel just didn't work on my phone as I said not all phones are the same.

Have a fantastic day folks and flash away.:D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] albinoman887:
exactly. the reason i was rude is because he was rude...just one blerb and expects me to work magic... i have this kernel for 5 different variants not just att... so about 400 people are using the tw kernel and 1000 the aosp.... (going by downloads here) and you are the absolute first... not to mention i state in the OP aosp is my primary kernel. honestly i dont care about the TW one too much

thank you very much for your support... the comment after s4freaks was utter ridiculous. ONE person says sometime (someone i've never heard of either) and you just fall in line... if someone told you pizza sucked would you not eat it?

post a last_kmesg what is your setup what were you doing? were you unlocking the device? did you tweak the voltage settings. the s4 has 7 different cpu variants.. so 7 different freq tables. i obviously only have one phone...so i cant test all different variants... thats why apps allow you to modify thsee settings... please...unless you are willing to do these things....simply dont use my kernel...or any modded kernel for that matter....stick to stock

But was extremely fast kernel.

Lol wow, is officially "it's over 9000!!!!!!"

I just got my s4 the day before, flashed to PAC. Now looking into your kernel. Nice progress.

BTW, is the cache speed adjustable? I saw in your update log that the L2 cache is overclocked, but I'd like to run this kernel with stock speed and just keep the other tweaked goodies.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] albinoman887:
no you cant configure the L2 oc.. its not gonna drain your battery or anything its a pretty modest overclock.

I get a an error while trying to flash this in the newest version of TWRP. I searched the thread and it seemed is one else is having this issue. Any ideas what could cause this? I'm using the touchwiz version and have redownloaded it twice with the same results
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] albinoman887:
not sure,,, i use TWRP
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] odinfire:
I have found that TWRP has caused numerous issues on my S4, so I stick with Shabby Penguin and loki doki. Sometimes older is better.

Just wanted to note to the op that this this kernel, after loki doki and full battery has given me the highest an tu tu rating on my S4 ... over 26400. :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] odinfire:
I agree with others that the dev deserves a lot of credit for his hard work. Especially, considering he isn't on an att phone. Over the last couple days, I tried a few things with the Infamous rom, 3minit settings, Nottach exposed, and of course my att 16 gb l337.

If I flash ANY of the new kernels, I have problems with Nottach settings working properly. I know earlier in the thread that the op mentioned that the 3minit takes priority over Nottach, but that was not always the case as shown in screen cap (just look at the icons at the top.) They worked WONDERFULLY together.

When I flashed ChronicKernel (the version in the screenshot below), things worked perfectly. 3 minit settings would work, nottach worked, etc. Then ChronicKernel updated, so I updated. All went to hell. Nottach wouldn't work well with Infamous/Chronic, and I started getting some boot errors. Right now I'm with the ChronicKernel Release Candidate as that works fine (I don't know if he labeled it RC1 or RC2).

I also tried flashing the Infamous 4 kernels, and the OC versions, but they don't play nice with att and nottach. In fact, I was getting random reboots quite a bit on my drive to Lexington today. It's a four hour drive. It rebooted maybe four or five times. :( Remember, I have to use the att swag file and loki for anything to work on my phone) I always flash loki doki separately, and I had too many issues with TWRP, so I use an older version of shabby penguin. Clockwork mod recoveries are so much easier to manage. Just don't rename the folder, or if you do, don't add any spaces in the folder name... the md5 will fail.

So, I'm a little uneducated when it comes to giving you reports that may be of use, but at least here are some screen shots of what is working for me as of this moment. I see no need to change unless some major features come up on either developers side. I love both 3minit and Nottach. It makes my phone feel, well... professional. :eek:

As I stated before, this is incredibly hard work on the part of the devs, and they deserve our respect. I'm waiting for a week of solid performance, and I will be making a donation... to both devs if they allow it.

Here are the screen shots:

I wanted to reiterate that If I upgrade to either Infamous the rom (with BIOSHOCK) or the 4.0 kernel, or I upgrade the Chronic kernel to it's final v.1, I lose any ability over the statusbar... color, icons, or otherwise with Nottach on my att l33t phone.

I hope this helps others testing, or even the devs if any of it makes sense. From my perspective, it looks like our dev's hobbies are turning into work. Give them the respect they deserve. :)

By the way, my an tu tu was a little higher earlier. It was in the upper 26000 mark. How much charge is in your battery seems to make a difference.

I did the N7 transition mod as well. Works fine. I guess what I am suggesting is right here is the sweet spot for some att phones. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] albinoman887:
so you loose the ability to control your settings? is it like you loose root access?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] odinfire:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] 1weener:
No problem... this runs really well on both 10.2 and the 4.3 Slim. Do you know anywhere that lists stock voltages on this phone? Your voltages have been tweaked down, right? Or should I try and go lower? I just came form the S3 and the first thing I noticed was the lower voltages on the S4.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] albinoman887:
no they are pretty much stock up until 1890mhtz. and there are no defaults as there are 7 different cpu tables (yeah 7) depending on what cpu variant you have it automatically picks which table you use. for example. on my device 1890mhz its 1212.5 mv but on someone elses phone it could be 1287.5 or even 1187.5. there is that big of a range depending on what "speed bin" your processor picks.

Yeah its strange i know, but its the truth. lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] 1weener:
When you say 7 variants, does that mean there are 7 different CPUs (all mostly the same in performance?) that they used in the S4? And some are known to run on lower voltages, and some on higher? Things change that fast?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] albinoman887:

Ok so far I love this kernel. I always used KTs kernel even on my s3 but lately I had bad battery life with it. Since I installed this in getting great battery life. I got 3 hours of screen time and 16 standby and still have %36. Great work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] codenamezero:
for some reason, i don't think the 4.3 kernel is working properly...

back then with 4.2 kernel it was able to resolved my phone heating up issue by using Wheatley governor and battery was great.

with 4.3 that i just flashed, the past 2 days battery life had been bad, and phone also heat up a lot as well just like how it used to...

I didn't change anything. They are identical the 4.3 just has a buch of graphics libs updates for 4.3 basically that's it. Just use intellidemand

What Gov and Sched (Edit...wow...) are you using? I'm barely getting 9 hours of standby and 2 hours SOT. lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] 1weener:
You must have a rouge app or media scanner running over time and keeping your phone out of deep sleep. There is no way that you should be getting 9 hours out of a charge unless you were pushing it hard the whole time. Get Better Battery Stats and find out what is keeping it awake.

I am using Intellidemand and Row, but any of them will perform a lot better than 9 hours.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] Locklear308:
Intellidemand seemed to be ultra fast, but my phone seemed to get hot. Is that normal? Or maybe just coincidental?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] 1weener:
No, not normal. The phone gets hot because the CPU is maxed out, and that is also what is using the battery up so fast. You need to get an app that will report what is doing that. The OS Monitor app will show CPU usage in real time. Get it and isolate the bugger app causing the problems and uninstall it. :good:

What settings are you guys using ? i usually leave it stock but wondering what works for you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] 1weener:
This kernel runs great stock, but I cut voltages by about 100mV across the board and reduce speed on the CPU to 189 and also cut the high end down a step too. I also set the Multi-Core Power Saving to 2. I can pull 2 full days with 4 hours of screen time... and get no cut to performance... but YMMV depending on what kind of driving you do. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] 1weener:
With the 200+ kernel commits to the jf in the last couple of nights, is it safe to say Chronic needs an update now? Actually I am really asking, since I know so little code... did they really do anything important to the kernel? It seemed like it was running just fine, and now they tell me it was just half built... what.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Developme] albinoman887:
yes and no. the kernel runs fine as is...but its best to have all the updates. i cherry-picked them all but now the phone freezes about 10secs into boot. So i gotta do some debugging. cyanogen pushed a TON of commits to the kernel.
