[Verizon] [ROM][4.0.4] AOKP ICS B40/M6/Mods (7/8)

Is there a way to get the light flow clear method to where the light will stop only when the notification is swiped away? I'm currently using the "screen on" method. I didn't like the "enter app" method

Also, did anyone get the custom colors to work? It'll let me pick it but it won't end up using the custom color I pick...works okay for the presets though...

Edit: sorry for the OT

Custom colors work fine. As for the light on swipe away....I too was looking for this and was communicating with the LightFlow developers for some time about it. It is a limitation in the Android OS, it does not give apps the ability to recognize when individual notifications are dismissed. For that same reason, I have a missedit! widget on my home screen that displays notifications such as unread messages. If I get a new message and swipe that notification away, the widget will still show I have an unread notification because I haven't gone and cleared. The LightFlow developers have submitted a request/petition to Google which I've followed (which is the equivalent of signing I suppose). So at the moment? No :P
 
Is there anyone that was having battery issues on M4, and now flashed B28 and seeing B27 type stats?

Basically, did they fix the battery issues from M4?


What do you all think about a dirty wipe from B27 to B28?

I wouldn't call my M4 battery life "bad", but it was not as good as I had on b26. LK 2.5.0 seemed to help (over franco M1), but it still wasn't as good (idle drain) as b26 was.

b28 has been excellent for me with LK 2.6.0. Much improved idle drain over M4, at least here.

As far as the dirty wipe, just nandroid first and if it's acting weird, restore your nandroid, backup your sms/calls/apps, and then do a clean flash and restore your stuff. :)

I loaded M4 and had battery issues compared to b27. It wasn't awful, but it was much worse than b27, so I nandroided back. That was several days ago. Updated to b28 last night, flashed lean 2.6.0 over it, and am back to phenomenal battery life. Dirty wipe didn't give me any trouble.
 
I'm on 28, now and noticed the new toggle "quick charge." Without being wiseguys, can someone tell me what it's for and why/how it works? I don't know, obviously.

I am detecting a slight chip on my shoulder, because I'm predicting snarky responses. :p

I think it only works with particular kernel/s aka fauxs 14x or something like that. What it does is bypass a voltage filter when your using a usb/puter to charge your phone and allow for a stronger voltage pull off the usb connection so as to replicate it being plugged into the wall hence charging quicker.

I used incredi-kernel (Chad implemented it in his incredi-kernel for the Inc) on my Inc and it worked well.

That was precisely my understanding of it. Basically:

- if you charge only from A/C, this is irrelevant to you
- if you charge from car/USB, this may improve charge rate (or for those navigating in a car, may prevent discharge while navigating, for example, where the draw on the phone exceeds the normal 500 mA the car (or USB) charger can provide.

Anyone have under volt recommendations for Faux's 14b5? Lots of slots and they're all working way harder than they have to

I did a ton of UV'ing with imo's kernels and franco when I first had the GN. What I would do is start with the stock standard mV's and drop them -50 each. Then you can slowly tinker and drop them -25 more at a time till you get a freeze or reboot or any instability. Never 'check' the "set on boot" option till you are stable and safe for 48 hours imo. If you look in my franco kernel thread, in the beginning, I give the stock mV's and what I used. That would be a good starting point for you :)

Edit: here is snippet of that info to kick start ya ;)

My voltages, and I feel like a safe moderate UV (although it is phone dependent so do not "set on boot" until you're stable after tinkering for a day), are:

1200MHz = 1175mV
920MHz = 1050mV
700MHz = 975mV
350MHz = 850mV

Stock voltages in case:

1200MHZ = 1380mV
920MHz = 1317mV
700MHz = 1203mV
350MHz = 1025mV

I would probably start at 1300, 1225, 1125, 925 then work your way down a little at a time

I tried that and there are way more slots than that so I can't do that because certain values that you can't set it at it

Hm ok well if you get around to trying 14 out at any point let me know...because as great as the battery life is on this stock kernel...I really want the tweaks that Faux's offers
Click to expand...

I'm using it now. I use 350mHz min 1060mHz max with his stock under volted settings. OnDemand gov. The undervolt he includes with the kernel is actually pretty aggressive imo. I'll leave it be and test over the coming days.

As for color tweaks and gamma settings....I can't stress enough how different every GN screen is from one another. You will not find equivalent settings across the board. That said, I'll share what I'm going with initially with you.

Keep in mind I am a warm white fan. I'm into photography and white balance is priority #1 in my head. I have an IPS LCD that is professionally calibrated so I compare with my phone to tune in the grayscale. Keep in mind: each brightness level on the GN results in different colors showing stronger or weaker so it is nearly impossible to calibrate a phone display like you would an high end IPS display. I've found a happy medium though:

*Please remember these settings could look completely off on your phone whether it be accurate or to your liking.

Stock under volt settings? When I had it it was over locked by default...am I missing something?

When I installed it it came at 350mhz min and 1200mhz max. I underclocked it to 1060mhz max 350min and am using the voltages the kernel comes with. It is under-volted by default pretty aggressively.

Can you please post your voltages? From what I see I don't appear to be undervolted (unless I'm just confused which wouldn't surprise me :-P ) ...and also you tested that 1060 Max works with set on boot?

They are the same voltages you have unless you manually changed yours. Did you?

Sounds like you are confusing 'under clocking' with 'under volting'.

clock = processor/cpu speed aka MHz
volt = mV's aka voltages

When you install faux's 14b5, unless you have changed your performance settings in B28 and have 'set on boot' checked, your default clock speeds should be 350MHz minimum and 1200MHz maximum.

The default voltages will be the ones faux set them at, and compared to stock voltages on the stock kernel on the stock 4.0.2 VZW ROM it is considerably under-volted. Not under-clocked. I left these default mV values alone as Faux knows what he is doing quite well. I did, however, under-clock the CPU/Processor to 1060MHz. Normal is 1200MHz.

Stock voltages on stock VZW ICS kernel are:

1200MHZ = 1380mV
920MHz = 1317mV
700MHz = 1203mV
350MHz = 1025mV

Faux's "out-of-the-box" voltages are:

1200MHz = 1232mV
1060MHz = 1213mV
920MHz = 1185mV
810MHz = 1134mV
700MHz = 1083mV
525MHz = 1003mV
350MHz = 923mV

Of course you can take Faux's voltage settings and lower them even further. Many do with good results, some don't. Just don't set on boot in case you go too far. You'll know when you get a reboot or freeze.

Hope this explains it better :)

Yes it does I suppose I was getting confused. And 1060 is safe for set at boot?
