From my forum's post: « on: December 02, 2012, 05:15:52 AM »
Although there hasn't been much development from 19th to 4th, due to vacation, visiting family, it's been around.

finally!

Anyone been using this long enough to judge battery?

[KERNEL] [OC/UV Support]Lastest stock Kernel with fast charge, 2WCR, and Ponury

I have removed this kernel and will no longer be distributing my kernel on XDA or participating at XDA. I received a request regarding the GPL which I could have easy complied with; however, it really irked me because making the request itself was very hypocritical.
XDA as a site is extremely hypocritical. They enforce the GPL against kernels but I have never seen them raise an issue regarding all the ROMs here which include gpl software but don't provide source. An example would be busybox. I have yet to see a developer distribute the code for it although almost very ROM on this site includes it. Also there are certain developers which don't provide source for their work as required by the gpl and action is never taken against them but it is against others.
Any enforcement of copyleft or copyright by XDA is really hypocritical because very ROM on this site violates copyright. Even the AOSP ROMs contain proprietary copyrighted software which the developers don't have a license to distribute. Any ROM based upon HTC Sense, Samsung Touchwiz, or any other vendor environment is violating copyright because these companies have not granted a license to distribute their software.
Are you using a ROM with Beats on your Evo 3d? If so the developer distributing it is violating HTC's license and you are to because HTC hasn't granted you a license to use it.
I'm not saying these things should be enforced and XDA should ban all ROMs, but what they shouldn't do is pretend they are protecting free software or policing against pirated copyrighted software. XDA is built upon violating free software and violating copyright. They have chosen to selectively enforce copyleft and copyright to suit their needs. Anytime selective enforcement is allowed it will lead to abuse of the privilege to selective enforce. This is exactly what is happening at XDA.
XDA needs to either to fully enforce copyleft and copyright or to not enforce. The current situation is extermely hypocritical and in the end leaves XDA just as exposed to legal action as not enforcing copyleft and copyright.
I appreciate all the thanks I have received from users and regret that I cannot continue to provide you kernels here at XDA.
sweet! thanks brA!!

I don't plan on adding either. The performance and battery life for the latest kernel are acceptable to me. My goal for this kernel is stability over performance. The reason I created this kernel is that the existing kernels which provided these features also tried to squeeze out as much performance as possible and in doing so caused stability issues for many people. I wanted the features but with the stability of the stock kernel.

Yes, the performance is acceptable only. No more than that. This is your kernel and you decide what you do but as you know this isn't the default speed of the CPU. Many many people will have issues with this kernel OC'ed, UV'ed or not. Generally people having problems are not caused by OV the phone, its simply because their phones don't like other kernel than the stock one. Many people have problems, many people not. Just my opinion. Keep going.
Ps: My phone can handle 2 ghz perfectly all day without issues while others have random reboots even @1.2 ghz.
Q??
Hey nice work man , how well does this thing sleep? I'm on Anthrax RSL8 and it drains about 2% an hour.

I have been talked into adding undervolting and overclocking. The default will always remain the same as stock and my stance is going to be I don't guarantee proper operation if you do either.
Not sure when I will add support. Work is keeping me pretty busy right now. Hopefully I can squeeze in some time this weekend.

[KeRnEl] Clemsyn's Elite BATTERY SAVING kernel: Now for 4.1.2 ROMs

Would like to thank all the Beta Testers of my Elite kernel for Nexus 7. They have allowed me to see how low voltages can go in the device. Also, credits go to _motley, fosser2, Cpajuste, pershoot, catch1571, pinoyto, masterg0g0, morfic etc...and to who ever I missed. Biggest thanks to my wife for giving me the chance to do this.
UPDATED 10/19/2012
1. This kernel is updated to utilize the latest 4.1.2 by Google for Nexus 7
2. Same voltages applied as before to extend your battery life
3. Same speed of CPU and GPU
4. Same warning as below.
Here is the link
https://rapidshare.com/files/1618065280/ClemsynExtremeBatterySaver4.1.2.zip
Or the one in the button
Please reward my hard work by clicking on the DONATE TO ME button under my sig or donate a Hard Drive with at least 60GB space to make it easier for me to compile. THANKS!!
SOURCE: Compressing at the moment
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now to the kernel
This kernel is basically a STOCK kernel with voltage lowered to the lowest possible settings to EXTEND battery life. No tweaks other than voltages
This are for Nexus 7 users who care more about BATTERY life and LESS HEAT than overclocking.
Here are the changes.
1. Undervolting is NOT POSSIBLE in this kernel. Undervolting has been done by me in the kernel
2. CPU voltages are default to maintain stability but it shines in undervolting the other aspects of the device, ie: pll_c, memory, emc, host1x, GPU 2d/3d bus etc...
2. vdd_core/vdd_rail decreased voltage from 1.2 to 1.1mv
3. emc, pll_c, host1x, GPU decreased from 1.2 to 1.1mv
4. Compiled using Linaro Toolchain
5. Speed of GPU 2d/3d/vde etc set at 400 mhz (close to stock of 416)
6. Backlight default decreased to 5 for better reading at night and decrease battery consumption
Here is the link OR CLICK ON THE BOTTOM
https://rapidshare.com/files/3373858690/ClemsynELITEBatterySaverStock.zip
WARNING:
Due to aggressive undervolting of this kernel. It might not work with your device. So please be very familiar with backup/restore of your device
** If you like my work. Please do not hesitate to click on the DONATE TO ME button and add to my Nexus7 fund and reward my work. It will be appreciated THANK YOU.
git https://github.com/clemsyn/Grouper
I will use this as my daily driver when I'm not testing kernels.
Edit: I just realized that this is stock, I though it was like the previous 1.5 one of the series. Would you be updating on that regard in the future?
Edit2: Temp wont reach 40.0 C 37.0 C being the mac with none to light use.
Edit3: So has anyone tried to see if init.d support is there?
very nice!

If it works with the stock kernel, it will work with this.
Probably not then, you still have to modify the code to enable init.d support in AOSP source. Will give this a go anyway for the battery saving. Thanks for your work.

[Q] Memory leaking, 4412 devices..

As per Andrew Dodd (Samsung device maintainer for CM), our devices (4412 based devices) apparently leak memory when running a 4.2.1 AOSP based ROM. What effects, if any, will this have on our device?

It depends. I only saw him complaining about one app in particular and honestly, CM is not really AOSP. AOSP-based, but they have changed quite a bit of things. Who is to say the problem isn't there?
I know that probably singes the hair on the heads of CM devs, but they cannot automatically assume that CM is bug-free.

Yeah I see your point about it not being bug-free. This dev also seems to get mad at quite a lot of things pertaining to developing for the Exynos platform. This post just sparked some interest and I just wanted to know how safe it would be for an end-user like me to use CM as a daily driver. Thanks for the insightful info though. Oh and later in the comments he says that even pulling down the notification bar can cause memory leaking so I'm not sure that it's only Ingress that's causing a leak.
edit: Oh and sorry to hear about your old Note 2. I hope your CLN doesn't die like that!
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
This only applies when running the unmerged Mali changes. Since its mem leaking, it hasn't been merged into CM gerrit so its not affecting any current nightlies. Kejars basic kernel does have the Mali changes though so you might get some mem leaking if you flash that.

What would the memory leaking do exactly? Just waste it and slow the phones processes down a bit? Or something worse?

Memory leaks are basically something stuck in memory that keeps requesting more memory when it isn't needed, but never releasing any memory that they don't need anymore. Over time, the phone would just get really sluggish. Restarting should fix it, but it would slowly get back to where it was before.

[KERNEL] a.k.a. Dr. West's Re-Animated Kernel

Dr. Herbert West's Re-Animated Franco Kernel Staging branch Kernel

The short story ...
This is, for all intents and purposes, Franco Kernel. However, I have worked to cherry-pick commits
from the nightlies branch and apply them to the staging branch. I feel some great commits were lost
in the rebase and since I can't find the specific commits that make it great, I decided to just
carry on, adding commits from the nightlies branch to staging.
The long story ...
On March 19, 2014 Francisco Franco decided to rebase his kernel which is currently the nightlies
branch. To my understanding the reason was that users were complaining of various bugs, glitches,
etc. He had applied many CAF commits and was unable to determine where things were going wrong.
He was faced with a decision, find the problem or rebase? He chose to rebase. Since then, the
kernel has continued to get better and better!
"Then why are you using the staging branch?" you might be asking. Well, I was never plagued by
the problems other complained about and was really happy with r35. In fact, there is a little
nugget of gold with great value to me, hiding away in this branch! Let me explain.
On r35, when playing audio through PowerAmp, the CPU stays steady at 300mhz. Also, the way the
kernel selects which speed to run at seems to be more consistent. Apps, such as audio/video players,
seem to maintain a steady speed. Since r36 this has not been the case, audio/media players will
ramp up to 1GHz+ for no apparent reason. I was able to isolate one commit that as been applied to
the nightlies branch but the ramping up still continues.
This brings me to the nugget of gold! I have been able to determine there are about 1100 commits in
the staging branch that have not made it into the nightlies branch. The odds of finding the one or
two commits that reduce the ramping up are pretty slim. Believe me, I have tried.
Therefore, I have decided to re-animate the staging branch and work to bring commits from nightlies.
What is different?
The biggest difference is it is based on the "staging" branch
I've added 96Mhz, 192Mhz and 249Mhz CPU speeds.
Compiled with Linaro 4.8 (2014.03)
There will be no test builds, only releases that coincide with Franco Kernel.
The version will have a trailing a, b, c, etc. Each letter represents a build that has had past commits merged within that release. For example, the current version is r55a. Presently, there are about 120 commits from nightlies that I have to go through. If I merge some old commits before r56, the kernel will be released as r55b, r55c, etc.
What is the same?
many hundreds of commmits from the “nightlies” branch
initramfs files
Default FKU settings (see Notes)
Notes...
1. The FKU settings I change on my device are as follows... updated 06/30/2014
1a. If you are using a build named Re-animator-t** I suggest only changing the Minimum Frequency to 96000 and let me know how battery life is.
Minimum CPU frequency 96MHz
go_highspeed_load 95
highspeed_freq 192000
input_boost_freq 1036800
sync_freq 96000
target_loads 85 96000:90 192000:95 300000:98 600000:99
up_threshold_any_cpu_freq 300000
cpufreq_unplug_limit 1800000​
2. For a long time I used PowerAmp, however I have recently switched to Rocket Music Player. Which you use is up to you but I believe RMP has a slightly less demanding UI.
3. At one point I suggested using Powersave governor to maximize battery. However, I think it does more harm than good, and has been removed.
4. I accept "Thanks" as payment.
5. Any monetary donations should be sent to Francisco Franco.

It literally just came out, battery is probably similar to Franco's, and yes it's an AOSP kernel...
The name alone intrigued me as a huge horror fan. The write-up sold me, going to flash it right now. Thanks!

As I said in the OP, for all intents and purposes, this is Francisco Franco's Kernel. The difference is that it is not rebased. This is the staging branch of his git with most commits from his nightlies branch applied to it.

It will definitely get better battery life in some situations, specifically audio, which is what I use my device mainly for. For example, last night, on airplane mode, min cpu at 96mhz and governor set to powersave, I lost only 13% battery after 7.5 hrs of audio playback.
and does this work on mahdi rom ?

If a rom works with Franco's Kernel, then it should most likely work with this one.

i know, thats what i dont wanna use/download.. but did anyways
i like to do all my flashing in recovery all at one go.. i dont like the thought of, "downloading/updating a new rom via recovery, boot up, then have to use/download flashify just to 'finish' the procedure".. Lazy? maybe.. but doing everything all at once is better, and better for my ocd.. dont like back tracking things if that makes any sense ha -- makes sense in my head :angel:
EDIT: LOL :doh: I just downloaded franco kernel .zip (since thats where it come from) and just replaced his boot img with Dr. West's (OP's) img... Flashed it via recovery, and booted up fine :good:

I personally prefer fastboot but since many prefer recovery method, I will upload a zip that can be flashed via recovery.

Ah, fantastic! -- Thanks a lot :highfive:
Been using it for a solid few hours now and it's running great!
I'm getting issues though when I restore your preferences xml in FKU. It restores and reboots me to fastboot mode no matter what I do. I've rebooted multiple times to no avail and I've even started over by reflashing my ROM, then the kernel, then re-imported the settings again and the same thing. Any reason that might happen? I've wiped all previous settings in FKU previous to doing that. Not a big deal, just trying to get some good new settings to try from someone who knows what these numbers mean.

To use the settings xml, you'll need to be rooted. Copy the file to /data/data/com.franco.kernel/shared_prefs/ then make sure the permissions are 0660.
NOTE!! I've removed the link to the xml. I realized I had also modified the voltages. I'm so sorry. See the OP for the changes you need to make. Again, really sorry about that.

Great kernel name, loved the film, excited to try your work. Thanks for bringing this to us!

No problem at all, I just thought I was doing something wrong. Thanks, very much appreciated for the update!
Overnight, I lost a single percent of battery. I've got 'keep wifi-on during sleep' set to never, which I'm sure helps, but even still I can't recall a time recently where my battery did so well overnight!
