definitely smoother than beta 1..

Thanks a lot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rushead:
Those aren't little.....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 7175:
Wow, I'm getting insanely high scores in Antutu with beta2 and FML lollipop build 05DEC2014. WIth stock settings plus interactive governor and deadline IO scheduler, I've been getting in the 15700's with my highest at 15941. This is with 1200MHz max cpu frequency. I also got some init.d and cron scripts I use. Originally running Antutu without any scripts and stock kernel settings I get around 13500.

[IMG="15941"]http://oi60.tinypic.com/14w63wj.jpg[/IMG]

I attached the scripts I use if anyone wants to check those out.

Btw, an easy way to do a screenshot in FML without the power option is to open up the terminal, type this:

cd /sdcard
sleep 10; screencap new_image.png

Then switch to whatever you want to screenshot, wait 10 seconds, and it will be saved to /sdcard/new_image.png.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Alright guys, here's the second wave of test settings. I'm using these on the Beta2 kernel, as I said above they've gotten me over 13600+ on antutuX and the battery is great:

SmittyL Kernel Test Settings v2:

westwood

row

Read Ahead Buffer: 768 (The results for RAB will vary so experiment and find one that works best for you if mine do not yield preferred results.)

Dyninteractive

Min: 250mhz

Max: 1520mhz

Max Screen Off: 550mhz

Min Screen On: 250mhz

Content Adaptive Brightness: On

Force Fast Charge: Off

Vibrator Strength: 90

FSYNC: Off

Tempature Limit: 70

GPU Governor: activeidle

GPU: 512mhz

ZRAM: Off

Smartreflex: All On (MPU undervolted by 25 across the board, IVA and Core leave at default)

Core Min Calibrated Voltage: 810

IVA Min Calibrated Voltage: 810

MPU Min Calibrated Voltage: 810

VAUX3_6030: 2700

VMMC: 1300

[with any undervolting there is a risk of freezing and/or SOD's, not all devices play nice with lower voltages so if you find that you are encountering issues just return to stock]

You can find the minfrees and color settings I use in the OP of my Custom Kernel Settings thread linked in my signature.

Hope these work out for you guys, these are most likely going to be my base settings and I will only be doing tweaks from here on out as Smitty adds things into the upcoming kernel versions.​
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
Write/read speed is ridicolous, even fstrim -v doesnt work how it should work

Edit. With newest Nep settings
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
So are you having negative or positive results? Just asking because my device has never run better in the two years I've had a Gnex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
Settings make phone smother but with that low read/write speed even typing on keyboard is laggy :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
You do know read write speed has nothing to do with the keyboard or lag right? All read write speed has to do with is how fast you move data to and from your device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
Then tell why when i have 5mb write my phone lagg but with 20mb it doesnt ? Confirmed on kit kat when trimming work normally...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Read/Write speeds are how fast you can move things from your computer to your device and how fast you can move things from your device to your computer, Read Ahead Buffer numbers very and that is why I told people to use different ones then what I am using if their file transfer rate seems slow. The minfrees are what is controlling the lag you may be getting in your keyboard, completely different things.

Did you set the minfrees I have on my kernel settings thread or did you leave them as they were for the kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
I use yours minfree settings
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
What ROM are you using? I'm on the 12/6 FML Lollipop build using Smitty's beta2 kernel and I have zero lag on my keyboard or anything else with the exact settings I posted here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
The same ROM, the same kernel, the same settings, my phone ≠ your phone,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Not sure what's causing your lag then. Possibly a rogue app running or maybe the 512gpu frequency might not play well with your device. Otherwise your Gnex might just need to settle. Try using Clean Master to check and block constant running apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
Will try your suggest, I forget that 512mhz can cause problem
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
Okey I lower GPU to 3XXmHz and its snappier now or maybe its placebo effect
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BestBrd:
Impressive ...

(Neph's settings)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
Pff

SmittyV test 1 kernel overclocked without nep settings

SmittyV test 2 kernel stockclocked with nep settings

This is impressive
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BestBrd:
1650 MHz ?

Everything stock on the second screen?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
As I writed stock frequent with nep settings

---------- Post added at 02:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 PM ----------

SmittyV test 2 kernel oveclocked with nep settings BOOM!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
I don't bother going above 1.5ghz clockspeed due to it being a waste of battery but that surely is an awesome score, glad to see your devices is running well now. :)

I'll post my score with my exact settings in a bit, gotta let my device cool down for a bit first, been playing around on it for like a half hour so its a little warm.

P.S. gotta remember, I make my settings so they provide great performance and excellent battery life. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pvkiniyan95:
will this kernel support synapse by default or should i flash axel ukm script???

i flashed the script for fml stock kernel so now i see a few options lost in synapse...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
So, not too bad. Battery has been great as well. I think I'll be sticking with these settings for awhile.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Driver007:
uploading some logs after reboot when pressing hibernate button on greenify, and I don't known but for me above 1.3Ghz is very unstable :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
Not sure about the instability @ higher freq , I'm running @ 1.65 GHz . but I did look at the logs , I see the reboot , apparently binder failed .....

Also too , I only need last_kmesg and/or dmesg , the modem log I never will need and it can contain personal info .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GaNkSTar:
Can't seem to be able to change GPU, as soon as I select save settings it reverts back to 512 using trickster mod
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Driver007:
Didn't know about modem log, so I removed attachment for safety.

Whit kitkat I never go above 1.4ghz after that also feels not stable, maybe that gpu MHz is not stable :?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoDe LaZaRuS:
Off topic but will really appreciate any help

Guys my battery life is horrible really really horrible. I get about 4 hours of usage with 1 hour of screen on time from a single charge and 1 to 1.5 hours with light web browsing, facebook, memedroid, flipboard, tapatalk e.t.c

As for my phone it's underclocked and undervolted with brightness manually set to the minimum where ever possible, in bright environments brightness is set no higher than 50%.

I have tried different roms and kernels but to no avail my battery life still makes me want smash my phone with a brick. I mean come on having to Charge your phone 3-4 times a day would make anyone loose their mind

So in short my battery life sucks and I need you guys to give me a recommendation of an extended battery which will at least last me a day. I am asking you guys instead of googling it cause its an extreme hassle buying things online from my country. Keep in mind that my Gnex is the Gsm version model i9250 and that I can only buy from amazon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jadesix:
Any thoughts on why opening BBS on this kernel would force a reboot? Running FML 12/6 on Toro. Happens on both default and Neph's settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
If you grab the last_kmesg for me , I'd have a better idea [emoji6]

"Su"

"Cat proc/last_kmesg"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
You might have missed it in smitty's first beta post, GPU frequencies cannot be changed, they are monitored by the GPU governor currently. If you haven't already tested them out, give my settings a try, i researched activeidle gpu governor and it appears to be setup to help your device idle better when in sleep state in order to conserve greater battery but when the device is on it's a little more aggressive. I'm liking the results so far.

I'm sure Smitty will have modifiable GPU steps up the road though.

---------- Post added at 06:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:23 PM ----------

Honestly, from what you described your battery life sucks simply because your battery is pretty much dead. If you are still able to get the free battery replacement through your cell provider I'd recommend just doing that. I had this same issue at the beginning of last year which was just over a year of using the battery, I thought it was kernel and rom related but when I had Verizon give me my free replacement my battery life was back to excellent.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GaNkSTar:
Sorry ya I must have missed that, tried to read back a bit, thought I saw a guy say he changed his I must have misunderstood thanks

---------- Post added at 08:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 PM ----------

I am currently using your setting and for the most part they ate working great except for the occasional lag and screen lockup, just trying to figure out what could be causing it

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Try the app startup block option in Clean Master app, it has done wonders for me on certain apps like Chrome and (lord knows why) Antutu starting and stopping for no reason when my device is trying to sleep. I have like 14 or 15 apps blocked from starting unless I actually click on the app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GaNkSTar:
Lol sorry about my last post something went kinda wonky there lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Airlibik:
sry for the noob question but how can I extract the zImage from the boot.img and fastboot flashing the zImage?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] christianpeso:
According to Trickstermod, I am not going into Deep Sleep with the latest Beta 2 Lolipop kernel. On latest FML ROM running Neps latest kernel settings. Did not try the ROM with stock kernel so not 100% sure it is kernel related, but figured I would post anyway just in case someone else is seeing that. Seems to be staying at 350MHZ which is the lowest I have the kernel set for.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] p34rp34r:
Both of you sound like you have wakelock issues. Check for wakelocks with apps like BetterBatteryStats or Wakelock Detector and see what's keeping your devices awake.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Yup.

This is exactly why I recommended using the nice Autostart Manager option that Clean Master app has, I have 18 apps blocked from autostarting randomly and I have the best deep sleep I have ever seen on my Gnex since AK Kernel with Beta 2, Beta 1 was just as good. I had to cycle "warp counter" to get this screenshot because the device does not sleep when charging off my pc but right after I did warp counter I left it for just one minute, you can see the device sat for that whole minute in deep sleep, the other cpu steps were it lowering down to deep sleep between when I was closing trickster mod and when I turned off my screen (approx. 23 seconds).

There is no deep sleep issue with this kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoDe LaZaRuS:
No i didn't buy my phone through a carrier so I have to get the battery myself ?.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Then just buy a 2100 mAh one, that'll fit in your device with the normal back on it. Just make sure it has NFC compatibility. Even if you don't use NFC I have found that the ones that aren't NFC compatible are usually the ones that are knock-offs and don't last too long. Batteries Plus still sells actual samsung brand Gnex batteries, my mom got a 2100mAh not too long ago and I'm pretty sure it wasn't very expensive either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Driver007:
some logs whit random reboots, using greenify and wakelock detector

use google, but I will help u http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2073775
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoDe LaZaRuS:
Actually I was thinking of getting the 3600 mah beast even though it wont fit with the normal cover. And thanks for the tip about getting the nfc battery :D ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] amd_h4x0r:
I also didn't see whether the 5.0 kernel supports Synapse yet? Should we stick with Trickster for now?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
You should be able to flash UKM to add Synapse to any GN kernel now. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] amd_h4x0r:
I tried that with the latest UKM, but a few options were broken and some of the settings [MENTION=2853378]Nephilim[/MENTION] suggested for tuning are not available.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Mention them in the UKM thread so apbaxel can fix it. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
I definitely have plans on adding back synapse support to the ramdisk , I just haven't gotten there yet . I'm working hard for you guys , but I'm more into getting a stable base before all the fun stuff comes ......... We're pretty much starting from a 4.1 kernel so there's a lot to be done
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] amd_h4x0r:
Understood and thanks for doing amazing work!

PS - I really liked the built in Synapse profiles on Dirty_V ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Not to knock on all your previous awesome kernels but the Beta 1 and Beta 2 are the most stable kernels I've used in a long time, I have not had one single issue with them at all. The smoothest experience I've had yet. Hopefully this will pave the way to at some point get a 3.4 kernel going because the ram improvements I've seen in Antutu between the new Betas and the previous kernels used for 4.3/4.4 are immense. :D

Thanks for bringing this to us so fast!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dbt816:
I'm seeing the issue with the device never going into deep sleep as well on 12/6 FML and the Beta 2 kernel. It looks like the kernel wakelock "gps-lock" consumes way, way more time than any others (like 17 minutes with the next closest being a little over 1 minute). I only turn on the GPS if I'm using a couple of apps that need it, but I don't know if that matters in this context.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
It's not the GPS that's causing your wakelock, an app that uses your gps is causing the GPS to do that. Look through your apps and see which ones are requesting location constantly and block them. I have my location always on and have not experienced this issue once. The only apps that use GPS that I allow to update automatically are Beautiful Widgets and Google Search aka Google Now. Also, do you have the Facebook app? I remember that stupid app not only hogging tons of resources which lagged the hell out of my phone but it also was constantly waking my GPS. I have since uninstalled it and use Tinfoil for Facebook instead per Osmosis' recommendation. Chrome likes to randomly wake a lot as well if you don't block it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dbt816:
No Facebook app loaded. I've got most apps blocked at startup, so there's very little running. I'll have to dig a little more later.

---------- Post added at 06:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:13 PM ----------

That certainly stopped it :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Doing that in terminal emulator may stop it temporarily but there is an underlying issue here, not only that, I have GPS fully active as I mentioned in my last post and here is one more example of my deep sleep:

As you can see, there should be no reason GPS/Location is causing this on it's own, there is something else forcing GPS to keep starting on the device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dbt816:
What GApps package are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dirty_Jerz:
looking to bake beta2 into my next build. What is the commit hash?

$ uname -a

EDIT: nervermind. FA is using the new DDK drivers. I'm still using old.

Different question though. I can't figure out how to enable last_kmsg. Any pointers?

EDIT2: *sigh* forget it. I seem to be able to figure things out if I bang the keyboard enough.

Nothing to see here....move along.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Whatever the latest 5.0 PA Google 0 Day Alpha Gapps package is out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
Can someone provide zImage of beta 2 ? I'll be thankful
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dbt816:
Same here. When Location Services is turned off, I can't tell what app is abusing that wakelock. When it's on, obviously the wakelock issue stops, but the only app that gets reported as a GPS user is Google Play Services. Maybe I'll go back and try MWisBest's GApps package anyway to see if the issue persists.

Edit: PA has rolled into BETA now and has packages for all their various builds, so I will try those first.

Edit 2: no luck with the new PA GApps :( Been getting some SODs as I toggle GPS on and off though. Hopefully I will have some time to dig into it deeper tomorrow or Friday.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
try this ;)

make sure you remove the extension before use
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] piterdemon:
Unfortunally on CM12 dont work :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoDe LaZaRuS:
[MENTION=4608636]bsmitty83[/MENTION] as everyone is saying how well your lollypop beta 2 kernel works it must be amazing but unfortunately after installing it on my maguro I am getting lots of lag, graphical glitches, and reboots every 5 minutes give or take ?. I've reverted back to the stock fml kernel and every thing is working smoothly. I am running the latest fml 5.0 rom with fml gapps with your kernel and [MENTION=2853378]Nephilim[/MENTION] kernel settings. Any idea what might be causing this
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
Not sure maybe try after a clean ROM install ? . or maybe its just a certain app causing fits for you . my toro is running very smooth . also the zimage I posted a few post back is my latest build . its what I'm running now .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoDe LaZaRuS:
Thanks for the quick reply. Can I flash the zimage with the flashify App also is there any way I could help you identify what's causing the problem, log maybe
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
Yes you should be able to flash via flashify . also if you grab a last_kmesg and logcat I'll take a look
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dbt816:
For those havng the gps-lock wakelock issue, I found a workaround... at least one that works for me.

1. Turn on Location in Device Only (GPS) mode

2. Start an app like GPS Test and let it get a lock on your location

3. Exit the app

4. Disable Location

The only downside is that it doesn't persist through a device reboot. Of course, just leaving Location on all the time takes care of the issue as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoDe LaZaRuS:
Houston we have a problem

Flashed the zimage with flashify and hit reboot and my phone rebooted to bootloader. Tried everything but it wouldn't boot into the rom had to dirty flash rom and gapps to be able to boot into the system :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boorce.com:
OK.

With FML this kernel is fantastic. I've only got SOD when trying some tuning.

I've now switched to Freshgiammi's AOSP Lollipop, and tried the beta2 kernel... unable to boot ! I was stuck on the google logo ! I was unable to take logs.

So I'm (sadely) back on Freshgiammi's AOSP Kernel..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rajputrajat:
afaik, flashify only flashes boot imgs (includes ram disk) for kernel not zImage...

Are you sure did the correct thing...?

I would have used fastboot to flash zImage...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoDe LaZaRuS:
That might explain the problem anyway will try with fastboot in the morning as its 1 am in my country
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hemantv:
As I'm on AOSP build by freshgiammi, I flashed the zImage using fastboot and I too was stuck at Google logo. I can provide the necessary logs if needed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoDe LaZaRuS:
For now the kernel only supports fml 5.0 if you want to use it you have to switch your rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Off Topic but what do you guys think of my new homescreen setup for Lollipop? I only got icons finished for the first of my 5 homescreens so far that's why I'm only posting my main homescreen as of currently.

Credit to anyone that may have made pieces I used to put together my icons. (mostly credit to Google so far since I used their Material Gapps Icons for a base on any Google related app.)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rushead:
I've been hearing this from back in the Vivow era, people have been wiping thrice "just in case." And this is no dig on you, if you want to wipe twice or 15 times, more power to you. I just want to posit that if you wipe once and your device doesn't fully format the chosen partition(s), your device is effed up!

So to those who are unsure, wipe once, and you should be dandy. Merry Christmas!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bsmitty83:
