I'm currently using cwm-DirtyV-RSR-5.3.14-2-Synapsed, but the issue I am about to discuss happened on all of recent DirtyV versions.

I have recently started to listen to a lot of music on my phone. I have found that the longer I listen, the phone interface becomes and less responsive. For example, I may try to reopen a closed/multi-tasked app, such as Kindle, and I will (sometimes, but not always) get a black screen (with the navigation buttons visible at the bottom), that will last for a minute or 2 (I haven't timed it). When this happens and the app finally comes up, it still lags (as does everything else with the interface). My launcher is GEL (i.e. stock). ROM is cm-11-20140411-NIGHTLY-maguro.

I have tried Google Play Music, Apollo, and JetAudio Plus, with similar results for all. I can clear all of the multi-tasked apps (except for the music player, of course), but it doesn't help. Clean Master's "1 Tap Boost" doesn't improve it.

So far, I have found 2 solutions for the recovery of responsiveness. Reboot, of course, and closing all apps (including the player), and then wait for 30 minutes or so (not timed).

I'm not suggesting that there is anything wrong with the kernel. I hope that my kernel settings are the cause. FYI, my MinFree values are 10, 20, 100, 120, 95, 195.

Any thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Same for mine. I think [MENTION=3685904]ak[/MENTION] was right and this might be the only actual solution. The reason for us is data corruption from freezes/reboots with Fsync off (ie. Dynamic Fsync enabled means Fsync is off when the screen is on, so Dyn Fsync needs to be disabled so that Fsync will be on to avoid this).

I definitely recommend a wipe, a clean flash, and using the original 5.3.14 Synapsed. I got a SOD using the test version so I think we're better off sticking with the newer ramdisk everything. [MENTION=5523756]Droiderat[/MENTION] was the only one who reported any improvement.

I get that with the new Google Camera sometimes. A reboot usually fixes it and as far as I know it doesn't have anything to do with kernel extra RAM. :)

Go back to using the default included minfrees, sounds like your custom ones are too aggressive for your usage. If you continue to have problems your first step should always be to return to kernel default settings to rule out user error.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krweby:
So your thinking it is a corruption issue now? If so why doesn't it also do it on the older versions? Just curious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Unzitron:
[MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] test kernel causes YouTube and break videos to not load videos for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Because you hadn't corrupted your data yet, maybe? Did you see any difference with my test version? That's the feedback I'm still interested in. So far 1 person said it made no difference, and one did.

There could be multiple reasons like [MENTION=4207125]ashclepdia[/MENTION] suggested, or it could be the new binaries are more susceptible to react to problems from data corruption while the old ones are more resilient.

That's just SR for you man. Nothing new there. ;)

A reboot generally gets things back to working order.

Worked after reboot for me with latest touchcontrol module.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krweby:
So after the phone set awhile I rebooted and it set at the Google logo for longer than normal but did boot. I'll let it go awhile longer and reboot again and see what happens.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dezful:
Dirty flashed from original DirtyV SR. It works perfectly fine with AOSPAL ROM. No google logo bootloop issues, youtube issues, video issues, camera issues whatsoever thus far. Well done!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luckana:
Why does my phone only charge up to 98% on 5/3 ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] michierusama:
That is normal. And you can get 100% if you use an external charger or leave the cell phone charge for a while. Are you on dirtyV?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Droiderat:
[MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION]

Update: I started to get Google boot loops on your test kernel, so that didn't solve my issue after all. So I did a full wipe (system and data) and rebuilt my Maguro, using SmittyV-NoMeM-5.3.14. That has been a hellish, 6-hour experience, but so far I don't have any boot loops.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Well guys. It's shi*ty like you say, but that seems to be the answer unfortunately. I'll take down the test version now. Thanks again for the help. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alley_u2:
I am using DirtyV-SuperRAM latest version. First of all the kernel is amazing. Its smooth and has lot of free memory. The only issue is that after the screen is off it takes a few secs to unlock. Can anybody help me with kernel settings to eliminate the delay.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmoG530:

What is main defferent linaro and saberMOD??

Im looking good battery life..

I hd been using fancy, but the battery life isnt good. But i like the colour profile

Thx dude
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
The only difference should be one is compiled with linaro 4.7 toolchain and the other is built with sabermod arm-eabi 4.8 toolchain

Both are highly optimized tool chains, but one may perform slightly better than the other (people are still testing which seems better for now)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irland2bite:
Damn !! It's only 9 days since this thread started (10 pages/day).Someone must contact Guinness World Record :). Thanks Mr. Smitty, Neph, AK, Metalspring n every so damn awesome person here to bring the spirit of transfer knowledge. Thanks, thanks n thanks again.

Anyone else having problems with overheating with the latest Linaro SR?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sheetzie03:
So Neph, then basically, all the linaro dl in the op have 4.7 instead of 4.8, bec it still says 4.8.

Just making sure, before I flash bec I was also getting the freezes and crazy ****.

I see in trickster.... Smartflex setting (MPU, IVA, CORE) is trun OFF..

Is recomended OFF or ON ? Acctually i dont know the fungtion that setting, just know every other kernel is ON for default

What module i should use in touch control app ?

I dont like touch wake, cz it always get crazy if our nexus put in pocket. Thx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Orilin:
There is no need to use Touch control app, it works anyway, just enable it by trickster.

Smartflex allow lower voltages depending on the power need of the CPU, so this is the reason why it is ON by default.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scarcry:
the trickster mod touch wake I stopped using. nothing more annoying than my phone waking up when in my pocket by the slightest touch.

if trickster mod would have double tap to wake I'd use it.

Thanks for your contribution, buddy. You're one of the reasons, this kernel is awesome.:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Firewalker1980:
Hey osm0sis,

I'll try it out thnx. Although I don't think it'll solve it for me, as I've been having the same problem for as long as I've had the phone.

If it is due to data corruption, it might be because I like trying apps and although I uninstall them if I don't use them anymore, stuff still lingers on the phone I guess. But wiping sdcard every time is very annoying, so not really smth I wanna keep doing.

thnx for the efforts!

Eh, there are already good text editors for linux lol

gedit (good for making experimental edits since it makes a backup file of the original file)

Geany (has each line numbered for easy navigation when editing code, plus a "symbols" navigation on the side which makes finding some parts of code much easier too)

Btw [MENTION=4608636]bsmitty83[/MENTION], what do you use for your main apps in ubuntu? (i.e. terminal emulator, text editor, file explorer, etc)

I used to just use the default ones ubuntu came with but I found a few different options that are nice, like the aforementioned geany for text editing, plus Guake terminal (its a drop down terminal emulator with transparency plus you can bring it right up with one button)... If you havent tried those 2 apps you might want to take a look at them

Aside from the inconvenience of a battery pull, can this Google bootloop hurt our devices?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
Not in my experience , I guess its possible if you leave it on a bootloop but I would think it would just drain your battery .

But as a general rule of thumb, anytime your system is doing something that it shouldn't , it can potentially be bad .

I would say your safe but I wouldn't recommend leaving in that state just to test lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crazyeats:
Thanks. That's me only issue. But I don't reboot often. Hands down the best kernel I've run on this device. Thanks for the hard work u do and the great attitude in doing it. Won't b changing kernel anytime soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
Thanks man , I still am shocked at how many people use this kernel lol , I was NEVER expecting this . I basically started this kernel for myself because the vanir kernel was the best performing for me but it was missing some things I liked , but since then I've tried to work it as much as I possibly could . its pretty safe to say most of the main parts to the kernel are past 3.0 .101 .

I really haven't been working on the kernel lately , I've been trying to bring f2fs to the gnex for what probably seems like ages , its only a matter of time now . but right now it involves ROM building and that takes forever on my machine , so instead of minutes to build and test , its hours lol

I really do like the nexus a lot . age aside , its a great phone . I'm gonna get back to f2fs now .

And hang tight on the bootloop issue . [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] is working on it and the guy is Harry Houdini with ramdisks . [emoji6]

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] metalspring:
Some of the early commits/changes you made were reminiscent of quite possibly the most feature filled, fastest kernel for the gnex (@ak kernel of course lol) until you made dirtyv so it's not that surprising :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Don't even need to wear out the back cover with a battery pull! When the screen goes black, hold down all three buttons to trigger the bootloader, select recovery, boot recovery and then reboot to system from there. :good:

Haha. We pretty much just concluded that a clean ROM flash is the only thing that fixes it for anyone, so it's most likely data corruption from Dyn Fsync. The ramdisk rebase unfortunately seems to just be a coincidence with people's ongoing issues here with that. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pvkiniyan95:
Forget it, I m a geany user myself but found this interesting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nullfeed:
I have a newb question since i couldn't find an answer after searching around: is it safe to dirty flash to new releases of this kernel, or is there another recommended way?

also, synapse looks like the future. what are some of the features that are not yet available from trickster mod?

Thank you [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4608636]bsmitty83[/MENTION] for your valuable time and contributions. it can't be stated enough times...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hetalk:
1. Yes its safe

2. It's got whatever the kernel developers want you to tweak. Basically [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4608636]bsmitty83[/MENTION] probably put in all settings that you'd find elsewhere and then added few more.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
More block queue tunables (since Trickster just took what myself and the Franco's Dev Team tuning collective originally singled out as important anyway ;)), grouped the VM tunables, and include all the important kernel sched tunables. Also tunables for features like KSM, and better support for things like our improved fast charge that can be set to 2 to use the legacy style. Probably a couple other things I'm forgetting; this is just off the top of my head.

Oh and the Trickster paid stuff like LMK and I/O scheduler tunables, but for free. :cowboy:

I'm adding time in state and unused states to the Dev Tools "switch" interface now, so there's another match for Trickster. All credit to [MENTION=5658634]apb_axel[/MENTION] for the awesome state scripting he added for [MENTION=3685904]ak[/MENTION]'s N4 Synapse. Great to have more cooks in the kitchen. :D

P.S. [MENTION=4278473]Hetalk[/MENTION], I see you mentioned "osmOsis" once at the bottom of your FAQ where it should be [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION], and [MENTION=4608636]bsmitty83[/MENTION] still has that "osmosis" guy mentioned in the OP too. :p

Hi osm0sis,

I'm curious and hoping to learn.....

I don't get how flashing a newer kernel can add fixes and new features to Synapse. I'm thinking that the newer kernel enables features that are already present in Synapse. When I flash Synapsed versions of Smitty/Dirty is the Synapse app actually being altered or updated in some way, or are the changes really on the kernel side?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pattyboi:):
to my knowledge,its not "kernel" side,its the zip package side:

when you flash dirtyv (or any smitty kernel) you ALSO flash the binaries for things to work (hostapd for wifi,media profiles for super ram,and uci for synapsed)

when osm0sis updates the uci binary,it gives more tunables/features to synapse,but you have to flash the new zip so it can install the new uci binary

uci is the binary made to support the kernel in question inside synapse :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Yeah, close! :)

Synapse is an app, but it's a blank slate. The kernel boot.img's ramdisk contains JSON config files and shell scripts that tell Synapse what it's interface looks like, creates the controls and how they work.

It puts a tweaking app in the direct control of the kernel dev of the kernel that you're running. It's pretty f*cking cool. :cool:

Check out /sbin/uci and the files in /res/synapse/ if you're curious about how that actually works. :good:
