Are they new drivers updated by Defconi supposed to make the device smoother? I know it causes issues for some, but just wondering. I still am trying to figure out what is wrong on my end. I made a clean flash of 14, but installed the older August drivers instead of the newer ones to prevent freezing. I then installed the latest unleashed. For some reason, my OS just feels slow. Not sure why. Scrolling and swiping on the launcher is jittery, apps lag where they shouldn;t such as play store and google play music. Anyone has some insghit to what is happening, I would be grateful. It has to be something I did wrong because L is supposed to be smooth.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CalicoJeb:
Ain't that the truth :cool: :laugh:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] oxxshadow:
for me it does not work. It setting itself is not even in settings anymore. I cannot switch it on or off, whereas in B11 I could. I think it is due to the Nexus 6 rebase, as the Nexus 6 does not have a LED, but ambient display instead.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
Alright so what is the laundry list? It also seems that the preview based build is not all that popular as the n6 based one (I admit to having preference to it like the rest of the team)

I had a lot of reboots when going through various settings menus. Going from a top-level menu to a sub menu would leave ghosts of both menus on the screen. Sometimes waiting would fully load the sub menu, other times the phone would reboot.

As for preference, I have been liking the N6 derived builds!

That would make sense. Strange how different N4s seem to react to the new drivers differently.

i believe is time to do what no mare hacker ever did....... early google hack challenge, we start with the known ssl and tls security exploits, target the android division, 15 firewalls are away from us and the official rom, if we make it we go in history and we get the money to compensate for getting banned from xda and most probably in jail while some will get jobs in facebook

I'm on 14 and I'm one of the lucky ones with no issues. Dirty flash from 12.1 and all. Everything is smooth, no FC's.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
It looks like newer n4 have a bit different GPU just like fast binned and slow binned cpus. That's probably why the n7 was using the older ardeno libs instead of the newer preview ones.

I wonder how this is gonna play out with the factory image google releases and if some people will be alright while others are not

Probably explains why Google didn't release a n4 preview too

[Nexus 4 Android Development] CamoGeko:
No issueroonies with B14 at all at my end, I guess it could be due to age of some N4s.

I for one am happy to stick with B14! :)

11.5 if can be stable seems very snappy almost overclocky with the a6 kernel

I just clean flashed B14 from B11.5 before I sleep last night, I woke up reading about problems in Adreno driver..

This one is the zip that I should flash to revert to a more stable driver, right?

I as well did not have any issues using clean b14 with latest unleashed kernel. Ive been thoroughly testing everything during the day and did not experience any single reboot, lock up nor ui freezes + battery usage is performing pretty well...

Okay, I'll keep that zip on my phone, in case I got problems I'll just flash it, since I have to go outside today.

Have a great weekend guys!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] privatekey:
I have one of the early batch n4s before the back nubs and it was working fine on B14 with clean flash. No sluggishness like I had with the first new n6 rebase test last night.

I flashed the old adreno driver to see if I could see a difference and I couldn't. I am but one user though..
[Nexus 4 Android Development] cell2011:
L when its comes out talks about BT alot

A better internet connection everywhere and more powerful Bluetooth low energy capabilities

Improved network handoffs resulting in limited interruption in connectivity. For example, continue your video chat or VoIP calls without interruption as you leave the house and switch from your home Wi-Fi back to cellular

Improved network selection logic so that your device connects only if there is a verified internet connection on Wi-Fi

Power-efficient scanning for nearby Bluetooth low energy (“BLE”) devices like wearables or beacons

New BLE peripheral mode
[Nexus 4 Android Development] 22sl22:
Hmm its weird that it's half and half with this build. My n4 isn't that old, maybe just over a year and a half :)

Before flashing the rom did you come from L or kk? Also, are you using a custom kernel ?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] googleygoggles:
Ugh... I hate my phone! I can never get more than 3 1/2 hours SOT even with a partial recharge in between!
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
Which is the problem the changes for L are not in aosp so when it comes to the hal driver, we are working with the n7's driver which isn't fully compatible with the n4. That's why I can't get the BT to work 100% and why we get the issues with car stereo systems

[Nexus 4 Android Development] CamoGeko:
I came from B10 as that was the most stable, smooth build I experienced so I stuck with it and missed out on the B11 to B13 malarkey.

If you want to see the flashing steps I took please click the link in my sig. ;)

PS. My N4 is nearly a year and a half old as well, its without the rubber nubs and the SoC is "Fast" binned.

That's like going to the doctors and saying 'i'm sick' without explaining anything else at all. Usage differs from person to person. use a wakelock app to see what's causing the drain

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.uzumapps.wakelockdetector

Using the app greenify to hibernate apps is also useful :good:

Hmm ok. I think the steps I take are ok. I'm gonna try flashing an earlier build of L, then full wipe and then new L version :good:

My soc is slow binned although I don't think it makes too much of a difference unless you UV or OV a lot which I don't.

What? Beta 14? What happnened with 13? Im con beta 12 based on N5, can i dirty flash?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] cell2011:
Dont know if this is helpful im sure you already know. Android 5.0 introduces the ScanFilter class so that your app can scan for only the specific types of devices it is interested in. To begin scanning for Bluetooth LE devices, call startScan() and pass in a list of filters. In the method call, you must also provide an implementation of ScanCallback to report when a Bluetooth LE advertisement is found.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] CamoGeko:
Wait, are you saying being bummed is a good thing?

Okay, well you could always try flashing B10 using same procedure in my post then do a clean flash of B14.

The binning only refers to how stable and energy efficient the chip is, fast binned SoCs are already running at lower voltages. Where the slow binned chips arent, so technically you could UV even more! Saying that though, the fast binned ones are better at overclocking.

Btw you should try UV at some point, it should theoretically give you some extra minutes in SOT times.

:highfive:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] kryzeK:
I do not know if I'll ever reported, but I have some freezes followed by reboots here with B14

[Nexus 4 Android Development] 22sl22:
Yeah I might try flashing B10 first. The more important question is whether i'll fall asleep doing so since it's quite late here lol :D

When I said UV I meant extreme UV'ing. My kernel of choice, hellscore is set to UV by -75 by default already :good:

Haha, well I'm in the same time zone mate (UK) and I'm trying not to fall asleep while typing this lmao

Nice UV that, small and stable. I reckon you could probably squeeze 150mV out of a slow binned chip though. I've seen others managing -175mV with some individual freq tweaks.

You have to give it time to settle down also... I doubt the adreno drivers r gonna fc any apps but that's just my opiniom
[Nexus 4 Android Development] 22sl22:
That's because you probably froze/uninstalled google search which by default is set to appear in recents so you pobably can't remove the notification right now.

I got this too before and I normally make mods but Apktool isn't updated to L. Once it is i'll start doing a few mods :good:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] xenyz:
Nobody should be undervolting while reporting freezing or crashes or any other anomalies.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] KcLKcL:
I don't freeze or uninstall Google Search lol, I checked and confirmed that I have Google Search, but still..

Or it's actually incompatible with N6's Gapps?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] johnb380:
Isn't 14.1 just 12.1 without the adreno files then? If so I'll wait on flashing for new progress...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
Yes I reverted them since we got a 50/50 split on who they work good for and a 100% which the old ones work good for.

I didn't really see any benefit to having them either so I don't feel like it is a big step backwards

No, I reverted all the 10/20 libs back to the 10/13 versions and the adreno libs (seems the 10/20 was causing a few other bugs) plus the audio.policy.so to see if that will fix the BT calls crash.

Lol, I can sleep alright just not at the moment since there's a party going on here and I've got a cold as well. :(

Thats pretty good SOT time, on B10 max I got was just over 3 hours SOT so I think my battery is on its way out.

Yep the older Adreno drivers to remove the incompatibility on some N4s.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:

[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
For anyone testing 14.1, also check to make sure I didn't bring the first call audio bug back with the changing of the audio policy to try to fix the correcting of the BT crash.

Since one of the audio hal files I changed fixed the audio bug, but broke BT it is one of those files and earlier attempts at reverting it to still keep the better audio brought the first call bug back, I wanna make sure I didn't again

Lol, dont think it is. I got the cold from my housemate and shes now all fine, still annoying though.

Thanks tho mate, hopefully I'll start feeling better next week.

As for the SOT, 3 hours on 3G will do me just fine... if I can maintain that. On WiFi it should be longer. I mean I've been on L since the days of B5.9 and have to say B10 was the best I experienced so far.
