I think this might be related to the vibration intensity in kernel settings. Try increasing if low or decreasing if high. I always keep it at 100, no issues

Hi, I have flashed new version of PSX (v8.5) and really Evernote works fine. Thank you for your very, very quick reaction. I was scared, that I must leave PSX, but messages from today morning give me new hope. THX for support...

I hope, that PSX ROM will be forever (now come 4.4) build on official source code (now JWR, not as other JSS/JLS with deadlocks)

You read one user who had an issue. I havent seen any and none was reported in testing either. I suppose it matters what type of WiFi network youre connecting to. Home networks are obviously less of an issue than Enterprise/Educational ones. Dirty flash it if youre concerned and flash back if its not to your liking.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] miksontije:
benchmark scores are not the same in all conditions. i have different resuts at the same settings. i run test,have score(21k) ,run test aggain immediately after first one,have lower result(19k) and so on... so the best result i get is immediately afther turn phone on, kill all unnecessary aps and then run test.

Guys, seriously, it's on your end. If it was a common issue, thread would have been flooded!

Update your router's firmware or, at the very least, unplug it for a couple of minutes and try again.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
I get within 100 points everytime I run it. You need to have a consistent setup that doesnt allow kernel frequencies to affect it. I run mpdecision off, min/max at 1512, fsync off, GPU and CPU to Ondemand and this gives me extremely repeatable results everytime.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] miksontije:
i dont touch anything,always same,mu setting: semaphore 1.7.4/ondemand,384/1512/one core minimum and undervolted -125 low,-100 high. i run one after other test,and have results from 16k to 21k. with hellscore default it goes higher 22k. psx 8.1 and 8.2 tested. but not the same to me when i have ram at 300mb and 500.

These are all Antutu results.

On v8: 10239

On v8.2: 10331

On the previous test build posted: 9646 (approx)

On the latest test build posted in the Thread: 10242

The latest build is dirty flashed over the previous test build. The other results are with clean flashes. However, I didn't install any apps other than Antutu for v8.2 or v8.

The build which gave me 13000 approx must have been v7.2.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
Its possible but I highly doubt it will be looked at this close to 4.4. Im all about making the kernel the best I can right now.

What you people dont realize is ct is purposely interjecting these "bugs" so he can fix them and make himself look like an active developer whilst also building a reputation as a bug stomper.;)

Some of the posts recently are baffling. Do people really think he would release updates without fully testing them first?

Granted there will always be the odd bug that slips the net but not everyone uses every menu, every activity and every app.

Instead of posting your grumbles straight off the bat, think before you post. Make your post constructive instead of moaning "my app force closed"

Try to use google or the search function to see if the problem previously exists and if it's fixed.

The way i see it, the less time spent hassling and distracting the dev, the more time he can spend developing a sh1t h0t ROM.:good:

Lets not turn this rare thread from a warm, welcome discussion into something were people ***** and moan. This will only result in ct losing motivation to release updates and go elsewhere. I've seen too many talented devs leave too often in recent times.:(

By the way, what build date is v8.5, is it one of the nightlys?

Is any one using Adfree? Do you have issue with the latest builds of the ROM. I'm getting "this copy of adfree is too old"
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] szucsgf:
You're right benchmark scores are not the same in different conditions. They're different in different conditions. And they're roughly the same in the same conditions! The secret to useful benchmarking it to control as many variables as possible. Ctfrommn already gave a great example: set min cpu = max cpu = 1512, otherwise the governor will scale between the various available frequencies and it is unlikely to scale in exactly the same way each time.

Another example is temperature. You just said "run test aggain immediately after first one,have lower result". That's actually expected. Benchmark tests cause our processors to get quite warm, and therefore on the second test you'll get more thermal throttling. Wait 5 minutes between benchmarks in order to allow the cpu to cool a bit. That's controlling another variable: temperature!

People often say benchmarks mean nothing. It's true that benchmarks don't tell the whole story, but if done scientifically they can definitely be informative.

Plus we have to keep in mind what we're measuring. People often use the terms "smooth" and "fast" as if they're the same thing. Benchmarking in this way measures speed. Eliminating governor scaling as a variable makes benchmarks more reliable, in that their results are more consistent. But a key factor in your experience of smoothness is your governor's scaling behavior. So while doing a benchmark this way increases its reliability, it also decreases its validity in measuring smoothness. It is still valid in measuring speed, i.e. how quickly your processor can do things. And speed and smoothness are correlated but not perfectly correlated (kernels with higher benchmarks usually provide a smoother experience, but there are exceptions).

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
Thanks....Ive never seen 13k on any build with the stock kernel. Thats always been at much higher frequencies.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
Yes and no.....it states 1026mhz but really thats only during touch events. It will scale down after approximately 2 seconds of no interaction with the screen immediately to single core, 192mhz. Dont try to change the frequencies as it wont work. This combo with mpdecision on gives me the best battery life Ive ever had on a 4.3 kernel. This is not designed to be tweaked beyond a few functions. All the optimizations went into Ondemand/Row with mpdecision on. Best advice is leave it essentially as it comes.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] szucsgf:
nevermind. The master beat me to it ^^
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Vortex1969:
I think you mite be a little off there 16k should be stock and 22k on custom kernel like PSK. Now 26k at 1836 maybe.;)

If anything his scores are low..

It was just a comment, my opinion on the subject, that's all. I haven't experienced those deadlocks since last night to be honest. Don't worry, I'll flash something else if I run into this again and again but so far so good.

I weren't picking you out, honestly. I'm not that type of person unless you are talking bare faced lies, then I will call you out. I'm just seeing posts everywhere about doing JWR ROM's!

On another note, latest battery usage. Not as much (deadlock just then lol) screen on time this time as I have not used it as much but still impressive overall usage.

You call it "Contacts" but it's called "People". Did you look under "P" on the app drawer?

It's certainly there for me, and I didn't flash anything extra.

Hey guys. Im gonna post my battery life when i was using psx 8.4 with stock kernel and default configs

It was pretty amazing.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] fr0d0#2:
Regarding s2w. I'm an addict, and with 8.4 I saw 1 freeze which is the best I've ever had. Ramgear says to double tap the screen then power the screen off. This has worked for me in the past. Not this time, tho I might have been too impatient. Another thing he seems to say a lot when people mention it freezing, is to ask if they're under volting... So that might be contributing.

I don´t know how people can get battery like these. I can get around full day with 3hrs on screen at max, I just can´t believe it.

:silly:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] szucsgf:
The biggest factors affecting battery life are signal strength and wakelocks.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Galaxo60:
I know, but did you see the horrible signal he has?.

:eek:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
And thats why he was getting 4.5 hrs SOT instead of 6-7 like would be likely with good signal. I have great signal and I can get 4.5 or so on all data.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nileshgr:
And it's open source too
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
Agree...Adaway is much better and often updated. Ive never had an issue with it in years.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nileshgr:
At college I get very spotty signal. Phone gets discharged from 90-100% to 40% over the day with barely 1-1.5h usage.

Though at home it's good but still not excellent enough to get 5+h SOT.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
If you cant get 5+ hrs SOT on WiFi with this kernel something is wrong. Either an app, other wakelock, or bad signal.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Galaxo60:
As I said, with 8.4 I got around 2:30 hrs screen time with around 18 hours total usage mixing WiFi and 3G.

I will make my testing tonight, I´m charging phone until 100% and then unplug it and leave it there just in WiFi with all synced to see the draining. I hope it would be around 5% which would be normal, 3% is the best I could get time ago when I was a kernel tweak addict. This drain was in 7-8 hours of sleep.

I will post tomorrow the feedback.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] PRGUY85:
Ctfrommn do you have Facebook app active for that SOT?
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] :
LOL you're not missing out on anything, I prefer Google+ and Twitter over it any day :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nithin1992:
Facebook adds to unnecessary wakelocks and it does wake the phone a lot. So if you dont mind missing out on the notifications(you'd get email notification anyway), greenify it, you'd get better battery life. Google+ adds to a lot of wake locks as well.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ctfrommn:
Arent there also alternatives to the horrendously coded Facebook app as well? I would lose my mind if I had to deal with that. Why isnt everyone on G+ anyway.....Facebook is like owning an Apple product ;)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] SGSHB:
100% brightness??:confused:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nileshgr:
Yep, I'm not blaming anyone. Signal issues trouble almost everyone in my country. I've greenified most of the wakelock-abusing applications (which have GCM!) and gets waked by GCM message (greenify pro + xposed). So I save quite a lot of battery there. But the msim_hsic_host wakelock caused due to bad signal creates troubles.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] albicelestial:
As for Facebook client: try Klyph, much better than official, but lacks push notifications.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] nileshgr:
Yeah so Greenify pro is fine. It really works while saving quite a lot of battery.

flash v8.5 anyway, whats the difference for you? If you use or not.. c'on!!!!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] albicelestial:
There is no separate kernel zip and no intention to release it, as I know.

But you can do following: make a backup from recovery, clean flash 8.5, install TricksterMOD, backup current kernel.

Then go to recovery again and restore to previous version from backup, install TricksterMOD, restore kernel from backup.

But of course I can not guarantee this combo will work as good as PSX 8.5, so I recommend to spent some time to make a dirty or clean flash.

Dirty flash is much faster than steps of getting kernel with steps I described.
