Apparently 90% of the users didn't pay attention when Txuki said that UKM is required for the latest build. UKM + Synapse are required for everything to work properly. Kernel Adiutor does not have support for the "msm limiter" at the moment.

If you moved to hellspawn, I hope you dirty flashed the ROM before flashing r11.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ivanich:
I used ukm+synapse a long time ago and even when it was under active development it was a very unstable and ugly app. So thats why I'm not planning to use it.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
It's ugly, no doubt, but it's the only app that allows you to use the msm limiter. If you're using a kernel manager that can't see this feature, doing any tweaking will result in problems. Synapse is able to see the feature and has full support for it. Without synapse, you can't even turn it off. Other users reported having problems and it turned out they weren't using Synapse either. Those who followed the instructions and used ukm and synapse, said that everything works perfectly fine.

"Kernel Adiutor Mod" is the only other app that can see the limiter, so it allows you to turn it on or off. The only problem with it is the fact that, if you activate the limiter, the app doesn't allow changing the governors. Only with the limiter turned off, everything goes back to normal. I already addressed this problem to the KA Mod's maintainer and he might resolve it in the future.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] spezi77:
MSM-limiter is already supported in KA-mod build 9. However, changing cpu governors while msm-limiter is enabled needs a little improvement. Yoinx is currently working on it..

Hey guys

Do any of you use Resurrection's Remix ROM? Im having a really bad battery life and looking for ways to solve this..

It is like 5~7+% per hour with light use (browsing only)! My sensors stay activaded over 1/6 of unplugged time and im not sure about what it could be so im looking for some new ideas, ive spent the past week trying to solve this alone and had only a small improvement..

Using R42 Taurus, after a totally clean install.

Any help would be very appreciated. :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] brordavid:
16h30min since unplugged, 1h sot, 59% left.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] TA123:
Do you guys tweak anything in this kernel with Synapse?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
That's the main purpose if a custom kernel.

Custom kernel + kernel manager = unlimited combos that are tweaked according to you own preference.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TA123:
The problem is in "unlimited" bit. To much choice. So I wonder if anyone can provide some settings, which work for them.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Applesan:

Videos not able to play

Currently I am using Resurrection Remix 5.6.8 and Taurus R43

After using the phone for a while, I am unable to play videos anywhere, like Snapchat, Youtube, Chrome, Instagram.

Youtube always gives me "Error playing video. Touch to retry", Snapchat skips the video, Instagram always says to reload the video and chrome gives black screen inside the player.

Is it a kernel issue or rom issue?

I just changed the CPU governor to ondemand, CPU max freq 1.7GHz & GPU 487Mhz that's it, rest all is as set by the dev. Stock
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Beackman:
I think is a rom problem, because i use purenexus with taurus-R43 and its all ok on videos.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] quentin2260:
No video problem on lastest PureNexus and Taurus.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] matteus198701:
Are you using greenify? Maybe it's problem

Wysłane z mojego Nexus 4 przy użyciu Tapatalka
[Nexus 4 Android Development] prithvic:
Luckily, since I did a reboot recently, the problem didn't show up again, I suspected it to be a kernel issue as I read it in HellSpawn thread that videos were giving trouble due to Uber TC 5.x but not sure, it can be rom too as you said. I have used this kernel+rom combo after a long time so I can't say.

Umm, I use greenify but I am using it since a long long time, never ran into such problem. i'll uninstall it and see if this issue pops again
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TA123:
Thanks a lot, but it is a bit to heavy for me. It is impossible to play music due to cracking and stuttering. But now I cannot reset Synapse data. I tried to do it in Synapse/Tools and in Settings/Apps/Storage/Clear and even deleting Synapse folder but a lot of settings stick. :confused:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Beackman:
Thats good its resolved , hopefully not come back this problem again. :)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Applesan:
You should flash UKM_uninstaller_v3.zip and after that UKM_v3.9.1_Special_Edition_Mako.zip
[Nexus 4 Android Development] j2002:

Guys, have anyone noticed the option to disable msm_hsic_host is back again? Is it still placebo or has some real effect?

I tried unticking it but no difference noticed
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Beackman:
Just a noob question, is there a way to enable diretcly on kernel, to use the led as "hdd led" activity?

I enable it on synapse, but its no stick the option.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TheArt.:
After I flash the UKM from OP I just install Synapse from Play Store, right?

And can anyone share basic tips about tweaking in Synapse in order to preserve battery without making it lag?

Thank guys
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Yes, you can get Synapse from the Play Store.

As for great battery life and no lag at the same time, that's not really possible. You have to choose one. The stock settings are for a balanced setup. Reducing the maximum frequency a bit can improve the battery life.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TheArt.:
Synapse doesn't make my settings stick. And some menus and buttons aren't visible. It's it just me?

And is the min frequency equal to 192 too low for our devices?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TheArt.:
Can't add the screenshot editing my previous post with XDA labs:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] j2002:
Do the tweaks you need in Synapse and then soft restart. If you made a complete restart, happens what you show.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TheArt.:
Nice! But what if I do this, and then after some days I have to reboot normally (for example because AdAway has been updated). Must I tweak again then?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
It's not necessary to reboot when the host file is updated in Adaway. I never did that and haven't had a problem with blocking ads.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TheArt.:
Ok. Btw adaway wasn't my concern. The problem of synapse settings which don't stick after a full reboot is common and known as I suppose.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Yup. That's one of the reasons I absolutely hate Synapse, along with the hideous looks. So I had to give up and turn the msm-limiter off in order to be able to change the governors with Kernel Adiutor Mod and to have all the settings automatically applied after a reboot.

But those that use the stock governor that comes preset with the kernel, can use Kernel adiutor Mod without touching the CPU section while the msm limiter is on. And if they want to tweak the CPU section while the limiter is on, Synapse is absolutely necessary but it comes with a price, which is manually reconfiguring all the settings after a reboot.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] j2002:
At the end, at least for me, is not common a full reboot. It is not a expensive price for the full control Synapse offers
[Nexus 4 Android Development] TheArt.:
So I need Synapse just to enable/disable msm-limiter, which permits me to change governors with other apps, right? So if I keep the interactive governor because I don't know another balanced one, I could use KA mod and change other parameters except the governor, right?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Yes.

Synapse let's you tweak absolutely everything without an issue even when the limiter is on.

KA Mod let's you tweak everything except for changing the governors and the frequencies when the the limited is on. Turn the limiter off, and KA Mod gives you back the ability to tweak the governors and the frequencies.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] debsuvra:
I'm having a weird reboot issue randomly when I turn on Wi-Fi. The screen freezes and the system reboots soon afterwards. Don't know if it's ROM or kernel related. Using latest build of Chroma.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
First, describe, in detail, the process of installing Chroma, how and what you flashed afterwards, if you used another custom kernel before Taurus, how you installed that custom kernel (if you used any) and the flashing of Taurus.

Read my comment carefully and answer each one of the things that I asked.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] debsuvra:
I had clean installed Chroma after wiping Nexus 4 clean of PureNexus ROM. I did a factory reset from TWRP and wiped /system. I flashed Chroma, latest opengapps micro and rebooted. After the setup process was done and the phone was working fine for few days, I went ahead and flashed Taurus R43 on top of it. It was working fine, with zero problems or lags but it started to randomly reboot while attempting to connect to WiFi from last two/three days.

Do you need any more details then I'll be happy to provide.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Wiping only the system is most probably the problem. Moving between ROMs, everything has to be wiped, except for the internal storage.

You can backup your apps and their data with Titanium Backup Pro. Search on Google how to do it. Backing up everything this way, you're able to wipe all the data on your phone, flash the stuff that you need to flash, configure the setup and then restore the apps and the data directly from the app.

So do a clean wipe, except for the internal storage, flash the latest twrp (3.0.2. 0) if you haven't done that yet, and then flash the required files. Banks Gapps have just been updated too.

Check your PM inbox cause I'll send you something in a moment.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] debsuvra:
Actually I did wipe everything, including the internal storage. I also use free version of TB to backup my apps+data although restoring the backups become little bit tedious. I'm using the latest version of everything including TWRP 3.0.2. Anyway, the WiFi problem may be more related to the WiFi in my campus rather than the actual device. It didn't happen more than twice so far and next time I'll check logcat if it reappears.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Oh, I have wifi problems when I'm in campus too. Everyone's accessing it and the entire network reboots a few times a day. But nothing wrong with the phone.

Ad for TB, the free version is a pain when it comes to restoring apps. You have to manually install each one, while with the Pro version, you can just select which ones to restore, start yhe process and automatically install everything without interruptions. And during the restoration process you can use your phone.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Are you sure you posted this in the right thread ? I suspect you're referring to the Hellspawn test build.

[Nexus 4 Android Development] txuki2005:
New june security update.... will be new Taurus.... in the next build i will disable msm_limiter by default and ondemand (stratosk) by default not interactive. I can add alucard hotplug also if you want guys or maybe leave the support :P
[Nexus 4 Android Development] arjundas86:
Sounds good... msm_limiter was confusing a lot of people, it seems.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] granazis:
[MENTION=5311064]txuki2005[/MENTION],Hi friend IMHO alucard hotplug not needed as its not for N4 soc, leave the project as simple as possible,agreeing of refered i think it would be better to add dyn_hotplug + ondemand by StratosK which are made for N4 exactly, also the min cpu min freq 192 mhz must be removed IMO.What [MENTION=5796730]dragos281993[/MENTION] says about these as always trust his opinion also?

Tnx! for all your efforts.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
I also hope to see "dyn_hotplug by StratosK" in Taurus.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] Razorfoot:
Why would you want 192mhz removed?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
192MHz has never been a completely stable frequency step for the N4. I used it and it gave me, from time to time, wake up delays using dt2w, or a few seconds of slow ux performance after waking up the phone, a lot of crackling and static noise while listening to music. 384MHz is completely stable for this SOC. The SnapDragon S400 Pro doesn't do very well in the "low voltages + frequencies" territory. That's the main reason Francisco Franco never went below 384MHz back in the day, when he used to develop for this phone. PLUS, there's absolutely no benefit using this step. If someone says there is, that's just placebo effect. The phone doesn't use less battery or runs cooler. However, Txuki managed to make it pretty stable compared to what it was before, so kudos to him for that. [MENTION=5311064]txuki2005[/MENTION] , it wouldn't be a bad idea if you removed the 192MHz step in a future build. Considering that people usually undervolt a lot, having 384MHz as the lowest freq step, would offer a bit more stability. More happy people. ?

Cheers !

[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
I'm very excited. :D:good::victory:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] granazis:
Yea right confirmed days before by me and posted about,192mhz must be removed as gives also big delay on incomming calls.

Tnx for confirmation,the last word has [MENTION=5311064]txuki2005[/MENTION].
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
The 192MHz step has been removed in the r44 test build I'm currently testing. Txuki also included "dyn-plug". The build also includes f2fs updates and other improvements. Good stuff.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] tom0769:
You mean 192MHz?:confused:
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dragos281993:
Yes. Sorry. I wanted to say that 384 has been made the default minimum frequency, then changed my sentence. Lol
[Nexus 4 Android Development] txuki2005:
I have to think again whether to add the "usb-otg". To test whether works once. or not... for what??? it is no necessary, use the cloud.... ;)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] granazis:
[MENTION=5311064]txuki2005[/MENTION],Yes friend good effort for test but IMO its a pain w/o reason on N4 (a big wrong by LG )on this device because of:except plus h/w and s/w needed a plus power also needed to supply (Y cable ,stickmount app,extra power) its impossible to have the more needed nandroid backup as stick mount app stop works when reboot to twrp.So as alternative i suggest to backup on pc the nandroid bup keeped on internal and when you have to restore just put from pc the file on the exactly right place was on twrp file already created to internal and then restore via twrp with the known way.Tried many times and followed by success.The only needing so is to use usb stick just and only as storage device to store some files like photos and..........nothing more.

The plus effort its up to you.These are IMO only.I wish you good success

Good morning and TNX!! a lot for all.

This is asked several times, but it's still a bit confusing:

Can you add GPU voltage control?
[Nexus 4 Android Development] kanishkad:
This is somewhat unrelated to this kernel. I installed Dirty Unicorns ROM & used the stock Unicornblood kernel for a while. It has MPDecision & Thermald. Then I flashed Taurus & after sometime flashed the stock kernel again. Afterwards, in Kernel Aditour, MPDecision doesn't show up. I'm aware that it's inefficient when comparing to other custom ones, but I'm searching for a solution as to why it doesn't show up after reflashing the stock kernel. Is it because it's a userspace binary & not a kernel level one & Taurus removed it when I first flashed it and because it's ROM level, it doesn't show up when I reflashed stock kernel? Is this the case or am I missing something?
