[Verizon] [KERNEL][4.0.4] LeanKernel 3.10.0 (7/2)

Yeah if your using 1.65MHz slot that would be my bet. Turn that sucker down 1.2MHz is plenty ;)


So it must have been something odd with B28 and lk2.6. I changed to 2.7 exp 230 and set at boot the 1.65 slot....now the lag on that game is gone. Loving this Kernal!!
 
I just went to 2.6 from 2.0.1, my phone seems to be getting abnormally hot and its not overclocked at all, guess I'll be going back... not sure why I tried to fix something that wasn't broken.

Anyone else having heat issues with 2.6?

I have had the same. Unfortunately I have not stayed on the same rom and kernal set long enough since I got the phone to specifically point to a particular kernal #, however, the only thing I have noticed is when I use a newer AOKP B series with an older lean kernal...it is more prone to heating up the phone.
Honestly I think I attribute the heat more towards the GPS and the fact that I am overclocking...than to the actual kernal.
But I switched to B28 and lk2.7 this weekend we gave it a good test yesterday...used the GPS yesterday for 2 hours, and my 11yr old played angry birds for 2 hours....even though I have the phone on AOKP B28 and lk2.7 exp 230 set at 1.65ghz to 350ghz....it did not get hot at all, and i am using interactivex since my phone seems to like that the best.

I have posted about heat before and blamed it on 4G but like the above, I ran 4G wifi tethered while charging and had no heat issue compared to M3 and M4.
 
My phone seems to like interactivex too.

My phone digs Ix as well.

So, I have been scarce lately. Life is busy.

Anyway, I am back to 2.5 stable at standard scale (350-1200) with all tweaks enabled except for aggressive minfree and no fast charge. I am not using undervolt right now as I had in the past to see if I can come close to replicating SOTs that I achieved with 2.5 previously. You may remember I was able to get 5+hrs SOT while on Wi-Fi using the above settings with preset UV settings provided by LeanTweaks.

I will report back soon.

As for my experience with 2.6 and up, nothing has come close to 2.5 in terms of balance of speed and battery life. Extended battery used more than standard btw.

See ya!...work is calling :(
 
Has anyone switched from 2.6.0 to one of the 2.7.x LK? 2.6.0 is treating me very well, so I'm hesitant to change to 2.7.2 unless there's a good reason for it :)

I never ran 2.6.0, but I'm currently running 2.7.2 with AOKP b28, and after 4.5 hours since being unplugged with about 50~ mins of real usage (games, calls, music, texting), I still have 86% left on the battery.

Keep in mind this is only my first full day of running LK, but I'm liking it so far =)

Running B28 I have made the move from 2.6.0 to 2.7.0 to 2.7.2 and my battery life is great. Around 7pm I would normally be in the 20 to 30% range of battery remaining but since the move to 2.7.2 I am at about 50%. It,s working good for me.
 
Does anyone know what governor the stock kernel uses? Just wondering. I've ran interactive, interactiveX and OnDemand for several days at a time and haven't noticed much difference. Also, what are some safe voltages to use at the clock speed increments? Right now I'm just using what I think is stock for LK: (from 1200 MHz to 350 MHz in order) 1240 mV, 1140 mV, 1040 mV and 850 mV. I want to ensure stability here; one thing I can't stand is random reboots, that makes me want to smash my phone and I'm usually a pretty patient guy.

Just updated to 2.7.2 a couple days ago. I really don't see how you all notice much difference between these kernels. Every one I've updated to (since about 1.4 when I started using LK) hasn't affected battery life for me in the slightest that I can see over when I was on stock 4.0.2. I mean, the CPU isn't the power hog in this phone, it's the display followed closely by the cell radios. I'm getting about 10-11 hours this week on 4G the whole time with about 2 hours of screen-on time. On Wi-Fi, I can usually get at least 4-5 hours of screen on time over 8 hours or so.

TIA :)

Stock kernel uses Interactive governor.

As to undervolting and safe voltages it will vary from phone to phone. So the best way is to read, then read some more, and then read. Read some more then you'll have a good idea :p

But seriously, you'll have to trial and error it yourself after getting an idea of what most people are running safely. Drop them 25mV at a time until you get random reboots. Then raise them back up 25mV and test for 3 days before "setting on boot".

For me, yes there are very noticeable differences between kernels in both response and longevity. Some people who've been around the Android OS for a while are more receptive to these changes.
 
It's true that the display eats up battery on this phone. You may find that you're getting similar (and not great) results from different settings because you have your display set to auto or turned up too high. It seems to me that could override just about anything else that might affect battery. For the record, mine stays below 25% most of the time, up to about 50% in sunlight.
 
So after my first full day on LK (coming from Franco 18.2), I'm proud to say that I was able to pull out a never-before-seen 3.5 hours of screen on time after being unplugged for 16 hours, more than I've ever seen. So yeah, I'm digging this kernel already lol

Thanks :). I was at least looking for what most LV kernels start at for their LV increments. I changed all my voltages to stock one time in SetCPU and didn't save the previous voltages that the kernel came with. So now I'd like to change it back, but I can't find the values that LK uses for his speed increments.

I do the same. I have a notification bar widget for toggling brightness and keep it on the lowest (25%) setting all the time with the exception to being in sunlight (which isn't too often).

Yeah it does. But I differ slightly. My phone use overrides my battery life obsession :p not saying that you are obsessed (I used to be though)

I enjoy my phone and use it to the fullest. I use autobrightness in aokp and have tweaked it to my liking. When indoors it's about 20% but even on a cloudy day outside it bumps up to 100% I like it vivid and am not going to suffer or squint just to save that extra 1 hour on battery :D
 
I've been enamored with M2 as of late, glad to hear 2.8 praise! I'll have to try lean soon it's been almost 3 weeks since I tried one

I love this kernel because I feel geeky using terminal to set governor, scaling and tweaks!

okay...bending to peer pressure here...but I need some help with the terminal. Stuck in a /data/local path...and trying to figure out where I need to be to run the lean terminal commands.....any help would be appreciated. Does someone have a link to terminal commands...I am having a billion-item-search mind-numbing experience this morning...lol
Using terminal emulator...TIA

Never mind....for some reason I had to reboot to gain access to su.....I got it now. Jeez brain not working this morning.

Glad you got it working. You are using leantweaks, in terminal, yes?

I have not been. Had not needed too...or at least had not thought to. But have been running checkt every time I change to a new lean to make sure I am not being throttled....and for whatever reason it would not let me in today.
On the other side, I have not been using leantweaks, so any suggestions on getting started would be great.
I am getting an entire day with 3+ hrs SOT so have not needed to tweak....
