Doesnt matter at all, i was just curious...

---------- Post added at 11:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:49 PM ----------

Yeah, loved statosk's Semaphore kernel on my Galaxy S :D

When i first got my n4 i was only switching kernels, to check out which got the best batterylife. Most of the time that was Franco's for me. Wasn't always the smoothest, but most of the time the batterylife on his kernel was the best.

But then Anarkia came around with his kernel, which gave the best of the two worlds, good batterylife AND great performance.

Now this faux+ak combo gives even better performance, at the cost of some batterylife (for me atleast, with my stupid android os usage :( )

Hello. Please can anyone tell me how to disable snake charmer by using a script? I was searched entire forum and only find how to enable it.

Ps. I just want to know because I think snake charmer has disable on boot by default. CMIIW.

Is GPS locking kernel related?

I was having issue with GPS lock on v.26. Reverted back to v.21 and don't have that issue. GPS locks within 15 seconds on v.21 but on v.26 most of the time just wouldn't lock on.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] playya:
I like to check threads out before posting any issues but as much as I have tried everytime I flash this kernel I have GPS and Bluetooth issues. They both wont lock properly after several attempts. I also flashed the reset kernel prior to flashing kernel. I also have seen high Android System usage. I really liked the other kernels and I am not complaining just pointing out some of MY findings. Of course this may not be the same for everyone. My last try will be to reflash fresh rom and kernel and test it out.

Thanks for your work here and I am going to try the v21 version to see if I have the same issues and report back... Again these are my issues and I see a few others. I am running LiquidSmooth 2.8 and I run Matr1x kernel normally with no issues.

Just checked out New York, with the 3D buildings enabled, and this happened :eek: Fully throttled within a couple of minutes.

Enough earth for today i guess :D
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ak:
You can try the new version ... have a low overhead and low cpu heating ...

eventually now you can set your personal throttle.

The thing I recommend careful with the temperature:

you could fry your phone
[Nexus 4 Android Development] mumaster20:
Yeah i know haha, first time the temperature have ever reached above 60 degrees for me!

Never thought Earth could heat my device up this much.

On normal use, my cpu never gets hotter than 55~ degrees and my battery around 40 degrees.

It literally blew my mind that earth could make my device run this hot! Never thought that would happen.

Currently using v030 and everything is awesome so far.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] -iNSiGhT-:
Hi all!

First, thanks Anarkia for this kernel!!

Only one question : I can't set the hispeed_freq for interactive governor with a script command... All is fine to set uV, vibrator power...

Here's the line which won't change the file :

echo 1026000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/interactive/hispeed_freq

But the value stays at 1350000 (default one)

Is there another file to modify?

Thanks!

P.S. : there are frequencies in vdd_table which don't appear in available frequencies (intermediate frequencies between each stock ones), why?

Smartmax Governor explained:Quoted from maxwen :)

The basic idea - which comes from smartass - is the concept of an "ideal" frequency.

The following strategy is used:

1) If load is above upper-threshold and current frequency is below ideal freq

-> jump to ideal in one step

2) If load is above upper-threshold and current frequency is at or above ideal freq

->do "ramp up" steps which will include all frequencies for a specific

amount of time - so compared to ondemand no "jumping" to max frequency

3) if load is below lower-threshold and current frequency is below ideal freq

->do "ramp down" steps

4) if load is below lower-threshold and current frequency is above ideal freq

-> jump down to ideal in one step

All those thresholds ramp steps and frequency stepping times are

fully configurable using sysfs.

Additional to make it "snappy" smartmax has "touch poke"

So input events from the touchscreen will boost the cpu for a specific

time to a specific frequency.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] szucsgf:
First battery results from me! V026 with Slim Rom 7.

Settings:

LTE ENABLED AT ALL TIMES

LTE OVERNIGHT

About 50/50 wifi/LTE

Always connected and synced

Interactive

OVERCLOCK 1620Mhz

Hispeed_freq 1026

Min cpu 324

SNAKECHARMER OFF

Voltage all -100

GPU 360 Simple governor

Deadline 1024

VIBRATION 100%

Lux auto brightness

I'm obviously not trying very hard to save battery, so I'm quite impressed. Plus I had something stupid happening with Google services (not related to kernel), which is now resolved but which drained a significant amount of battery.

I can only imagine results without overclock, on 3g instead of LTE, and without a stupid Google services drain. Thank you Anarkia.

You'll notice as well the beautiful scaling behavior of Interactive: Max CPU only 2% of the time, while my user experience was smooth as hell. That's why I believe with Interactive you can overclock as much as your device can handle and not even notice additional battery drain, while allowing your device to use those higher frequencies when needed.

Anarkia, could you state which Faux kernels you used as a base and maybe even write that in the second post as I guess there are people that would like to know that.

If I understood correctly, you used turbo boost ultimate for v3 and turbo boost mainline for v4, is that right? Do you also plan to cover regular mainline and enhanced stock as well or will you stick with tbm from now on?

Also, you could edit the thread title, it still says v3 there. :) Keep up the great work (on all your kernels, I hope you won't abandon the other ones and hope to see the current exp become stable soon :thumbup: ). Cheers!

[Nexus 4 Android Development] szucsgf:
Played with Smartmax for a little while. I was surprised ideal frequency is so low at 486 and boost freq as well at 810 by default. The governor seemed not to be as smooth as interactive or ondemand, but I must say battery was draining very slow. Slower than interactive, which is my benchmark. It feels like a governor that maximizes battery life while sacrificing some performance. Certainly useful. Interesting new addition, I haven't seen it before.

I haven't tried adjusting any of the tunables, just default.
