oh dont get me wrong I am not saying it does not work but just that it does not work with my setup thats all. I have flashed 3 kernels 4 different ways it seems and the only one to work out the box is v21... Its ok I will keep trying but my setup

There are multiple governors, core choices, frequency levels to choose from. If you scroll through this thread you will see screenshots from many users giving you the answer you desire. Battery life on a kernel differs from user to user so not saying that your question is not valid but honestly its subjective. Flash the kernel make some changes and test it out for yourself is the best answer you will ever get...:good::good: Quite sure you wont be upset and if you are then switch

I have Intelli-Thermal set up like this

It essentially puts the phone into dual core mode when the temperature reaches >70c then lowers frequencies at >85c. With this set up I was able to play Beach Buggy Blitz for over 30 mins while charging and didn't experience any lag, something which was never possible before, and battery temp didn't exceed 39c (I didn't check CPU temp).
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Ace42:
80C is ~180F, you need to lower that value to something reasonable. I don't even let my laptop reach 70C during games, so I doubt a small phone should be in that range.

And buddy, [MENTION=3794684]amarb70[/MENTION], you deserve a thanks for putting into words, what i had in my mind. I love to read this thread all the time. Ppl share their battery and performance experiences with the exact settings they followed and screen shots. My work is just copy them and set in my device. :D:D

Can CPU and GPU tuning can get any better? :P
[Nexus 4 Android Development] rmead01:
so i've been playing with the thermal throttling and it's simply amazing once it's understood how it works. But with my monitoring I can verify a few things that are screwy.

My freq is setup as 384/1512, standard freqs for the device. I was monitoring my freq and cores for throttling purposes while doing some intensive things on the phone and a number of times I saw the freq reading in the 1600 and 1800 range. Exact freq steps I don't remember, but it was up there. I run snake charmer on so I thought this behavior was very odd.

Secondly, with my min setup as 384 I watched the freq dip below that to 162 a number of times as well. All times I noticed the freq above or below it was only on cores 1,2,3 and never on core 0. I'm wondering if for some reason the freq steps are only applied to core 0 and not to cores 1,2,3 which would also explain snake charmer not working. If for some reason the settings are only applied to a single core then snake charmer isn't applied to cores 1,2,3 and it allows them to jump higher.

Is there a chance a second kernel could be added like faux does with the higher freqs removed completely? I know a lot of people like to OC but i'm one of the people that doesn't want to OC at all. Might be an easy way to fix the freq going higher than max if the core problem is difficult to figure out.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] szucsgf:
Snake Charmer seems to work for me. Here are screen shots of a benchmark test with perfmon running to see all cores' frequencies. I'm running max CPU 1620Mhz. You can see with snake charmer on all cores run at 1620 max and with snake charmer off core0 runs at 1620 and the rest run at 1836.

All so great and nice with this kernel until I get a crash to green screen and it's either my pocket is on fire or I find an out of battery juice phone :(

How can this be resolved?

Perhaps re-introduce a reboot instead of this green screen ?

I know the intention was to show that it's not a kernel issue, but it becomes one if I need to switch a kernel in-order to avoid it.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] rmead01:
really not sure then. It's not at that level for long, but perfmon definitely shows it hitting that. So unless it's a display or reporting error. I've got almost a full min running in the 1800 freq. I know when you boot the phone that can happen before the settings tick in, but a full min seems like more than just a boot.

Good that you pointed it out..& here i was wondering why one of my cores is running at 1836Mhz.

Now i checked that snake charmer was turned off :D
[Nexus 4 Android Development] mumaster20:
Well, i guess i found a derp in the gpu driver. Whenever i'm not touching the screen ( while in Trickstermod) the frequencie of the gpu is 360 MHz.

But whenever i scroll between pages in trickstermod, the frequencie changes tot 128 MHz? :confused:

Could this be a derp in the gpu driver, or a derp in trickstermod itself? It is very strange that whenever the gpu gets used, it suddenly downclocks itself.

Or this is just completely normal?

Same here. I had S2W/S2S on my RootBox, my wife's running SaberMod, and a friend was rocking another hybrid. All Nexus 4 devices. In my and my friend's case, we had to go without sweep features. Interesting to note, however, that my wife's N4 was also presenting the occasional non response to touch input. She was using SaberMod's own STS kernel, which has the same or similar sweep features.

This is a great kernel. We appreciate the dev's effort and dedication. :thumbup:
