Open Beta may not be stable and may cause issues with your phone!
By loading open beta you have agreed to:
1. To report all random reboots with associated /proc/last_kmsg
2. To provide feedback on errors or bugs with detail phone information such as ROM, kernel version, and apps
3. Participate in Forum discussions for the beta software with others without FLAMING each other or post useless information such as:
a) Phone doesn't boot (without providing any additional information, ROM versions etc)
B) phone is too hot (without providing any additional information, ie OC freq, UV etc)
The Open Beta system is designed to have the community help each other and the developers. This way, all potential bugs are flushed out so the final released version will be stable and error free. The more actively you participate in Beta Testing the better the final product will be (you are really helping yourself to create a better community software).
If you do NOT agree with the statements above, DO NOT load my Open Beta software.
Kernel 025 Open Beta 1 is out! (BETAs ARE ALWAYS ULTIMATE + SMARTREFLEX VERSION unless I stated otherwise)
JB ==> http://faux.androidro.ms/tuna/beta/tuna-jb-kernel-025b01.zip

My version of OnDemand is not the normal OnDemand. It has a two-phase energy saving patch applied to it. It alternates between Max freq and 900 MHz to save battery. The performance for everyday use should be very smooth but benchmark may not reflect the actual experience. If you want high benchmark, I suggest Interactive or Performance.

Could you explain this? Why will it clock higher if a limit is set and what's the difference if the limit was set to 1.2 GHz?
On the overclocked Gingerbread Kernel at 1,2 Ghz the phone got very hot while I played games, I wonder how it would be on 1,32 Ghz :silly:

On the stock ICS kernel and SetCPU I noticed the clock is always higher even when a limit is set
I noticed this too. I just gave up on it. Plus, my phone gets to about 125°F at 1.0ghz playing games. 1.32ghz would be way too hot for me.

That is something to consider .. i actually never tested it with games (only general usage and music) i might have to remove the 1.32 setting ....
At the most I think 1.1ghz is the most you could do without potential overheating.

Crossing my fingers for eventual voodoo support.
I think undervolting would be a good option to have. May also help with the overheating. Back on GB I used an OC'd kernel (1.3Ghz) and undervolted it 75mv's on each step, even on the highest frequencies! This should produce less heat and provide battery life

It as soon as you touch the screen the min will jump to 700mhz by default ... I assume this is to reduce lag ... u can also not set max to below 700mhz presumably for the same reason ..... currently this kernel is set up to set the governor to interactive @1.2ghz at boot ... if u want to change that u will need to check "set at boot" in ur cpu control app ... now if ur talking about the smartassV2 govenor ... from my testing id say its designed to keep the speed at the max setting u set and then increase as needed... which is why u should set it as low as possible ... hope this helps --clarification-- the "max" in SmartassV2 is not considered to be the "max" but the "ideal" frequency
Sent from my SGH-I927 using xda app-developers app
I see, that explains it, thank you. What governors respect the max setting as apsolute max?

added my voltage table
I'll give those settings a try, though I still had my old settings saved. Basically they're -75mV from default, with the lower half of the frequencies set at -100mV from default. Those were stable under GB, so perhaps ICS too! Undervolting it all -100mV gave me random reboots.
Testing it all now, will let you know how I like it after a few days of use!
Please don't remove the 1.32ghz if it gets hot thats what voltage control is for and if you install system tuner it reapplys all CPU clock settings back after screen off/on and reboot/shutdown.
I will test it out asap. Gotta back up pics of my new born daughter and still at the hospital, but I got my laptop and can backup quick and test
Also..
System tuner support for kernel would be epic so I can edit my sysctl settings and your my new hero!

A question, which app do you use to undervolt it? I'm using voltage control and it says it can't detect the voltages for most of the frequencies. And voltage control only works through setting negative values relative to the defaults rather than the actual voltage you want to use. If I want to test your settings I'll need an app that will just let me set the voltages in an absolute way.
I use system tuner and it allows me to adjust both in one simple locaton

Hi and welcome to fancy kernel. My name is Boy Petersen and I'm building this kernel with the following three main goals: good battery life, reliability and a smooth and snappy user experience.
Feature list:
Based upon:
latest AOSP/CM11 kernel source
selected Cyanogenmod patches
Latest Linux 3.0 version (3.0.101)
selected patches from the device's chipset vendor Texas Instruments
selected patches from Google
selected backport-patches from Linux 3.4
CPU:
CPU frequencies: 224, 384, 537, 729, 1036, 1228, 1344, 1420, 1536 MHz (default on boot: 224 - 1228)
control to set a minimum CPU frequency for screen-on (default: 384 MHz)
Will help with smoothness and responsiveness when you use the phone. When screen is off, however, 224 MHz frequency is used as well.
CPU governors: ondemandplus (more info), interactive (default), ondemand, powersave, performance
ondemandplus is an ondemand- and interactive-based governor that has additional power-saving capabilities while maintaining very snappy performance.
ARM CPU topology: multi-core scheduling (enabled by default; saves battery by scheduling load among the CPU cores; more info)
temperature control
GPU & Display:
GPU frequency control: 307, 384 (default), 512 MHz
color, contrast and gamma contols
sane and natural looking color settings
I/O & memory:
F2FS support
ASRAM memory reclaim, giving you 744mb available RAM with a fully functional device
I/O schedulers: SIOplus (default), deadline, noop, row, bfqv5, cfq
updated HSMMC & OMAP4 NAND drivers (improve disk performance)
tuned LPDDR RAM timings (+10% throughput; more info)
optimized ext4 mountings
Android 3.4 low memory killer
ultra kernel samepage merging (UKSM; enabled by default)
fsync toggle
zRAM from 3.7 kernel (with fast LZ4 compression)
improved memory handling routines (memset, memzero, ...)
switch to disable the MMC CRC checking (more info)
Network:
TCP congestion control algorithms: westwood (default), cubic, reno
DTIM skip override (what it is and how it works)
Misc:
custom voltage control
timer slack feature (what does it do?)
fast charge
vibration strength control
sound control (high performance sound, volume boost)
battery life extender (BLX)
various performance and battery life tweaks
init.d support (no matter if the ROM supports it or not)
elevated systemui priority
module support (for slide2wake / PGM, e.g.)
more things... go check the source if you're interested.
compiled with Google GCC 4.7 toolchain (from Android NDK r9)
optional anykernel2 package by osm0sis for Android 4.3 and 4.2 compatibilty

Chit-chat:
What ROM / computer OS am I running?
People ask me this sometimes. On my Galaxy Nexus, I'm running Cyanogenmod 11 Nightlies and obviously Fancy Kernel. On my home PC (my Android build environment), I'm running Ubuntu 13.10.
Why did I name it 'fancy kernel'?
Because I do not want to use some random fancy name, but somehow have to give the kernel a name that is easily remembered. So after some self-irony involvement, I picked this ****ty name :>
What is so special about this kernel?
It offers superb battery life with a smooth and stable user experience. I am aware that all kernels claim that. Just try, see for yourself and report back. Innovations of this kernel are e.g. the screen-on min frequency setting, the ondemandplus governor and the SIOplus scheduler, since I implemented them myself. Also, I wanted many other improvements that exist across the several great kernels around XDA. After all, this kernel is based on other people's work for like 95 percent (like most kernels are).
Why did I build this Kernel initially?
Well that's rather easily answered. I used to use Franco kernel (which I really liked), but I wanted a kernel for myself which fits exactly to my needs. In particular, I especially wanted working hotplug, GPU OC controls, the option to set a minimum screen-on frequency and several hardcoded settings.
Oh, and yes: I built the kernel because I had fun doing so. But be not mistaken that I am a 'playaround kid': I dislike pulling in every little mod someone made. What I want is stability.
After some time I realized hotplugging would not be stable. After that I wrote the ondemandplus governor to save battery.
Why did I release it if I built it for myself?
I did not plan to release it at first. But I decided to release it since there was this one new feature (as named before: the screen-on min frequency control). I thought 'maybe it can contribute to others as well.' Also, maybe people like my compilation. Sharing is caring :>

I usually stick with a couple certain kernels, because every time I try one outside of my 'safe' kernels, they don't play nice with my device.
I've decided to give this kernel a chance, mainly because it's new and I have the day off to test it out.

Running it now at 192/1420 with 537 as max screen off. Pegasusq and bfq. GPU = 384 and SR remains on.
Can't tell how battery life is, as I just installed it. Charging phone back to 100 right now.
It is very smooth and responsive from what I've done so far though. Going to keep with this kernel for a couple days, see how it compares to my fall back, LeanKernel + Tweaks. So far, so good though.
Re: [KERNEL][4.2] Fancy Kernel (Rel. #1) (JAN-24-2013)
anybody test NFS17 game on this kernel?
Re: [KERNEL][4.2] Fancy Kernel (Rel. #1) (JAN-24-2013)
Wow, sound great
So, Can i flash it over stock 4.2.1 ?

As long as you are rooted, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to. I'm pretty sure being rooted is all you need to flash a kernel.
Re: [KERNEL][4.2] Fancy Kernel (Rel. #1) (JAN-24-2013)
great kernel !

I'll give it a try but won't stick with it until an Stable release of CM10.1 is available, because I'm updating at every 3 nightlies and this kernel with an stable release of CM10.1 should be a monster. (and obviously I don't want to reflash it every new nightly.)
I liked it! I hope for further development of this kernel! Good luck! :good:
Re: [KERNEL][4.2] Fancy Kernel (Rel. #1) (JAN-24-2013)
I would be regularly sharing my experience about this kernel..really smooth undoubtedly.. Just had first SoD..

Re: [KERNEL][4.2] Fancy Kernel (Rel. #1) (JAN-24-2013)
Hy
I want to try this new kernel,
But i dont see volume boost in the features list, it's just missing in changelog, or no volume boost inside ?
Thanks

Overclocked CPU or GPU? If yes, I need to increase voltages.

This is Toroplus thread
Here's the Golden Kernel, a modified version of Amperific's A.S.K.P and boype's Fancy. The concept is always to have a hybrid kernel, optimized for galaxy nexus,
in this way there is no more indecision about which kernel flash because this Golden is an all-in-one. This kernel also includes many features of the latest versions of the linux kernel (3.4/3.8+)

Ok ladies and gentleman, new version, new GoldenX governor, new TouchBoost interface. Probably the first tuna kernel to have the ISIX ROW features, but I can't say you all, check the changelogs The most stable relase for now.
Enjoy
For the 1.4 version I'm planning a reduction of radio frequency (less radiation, more health)
But it is not all... stay tuned!
downloading 1.3 now. 1.2 was working really well for me.

Hit thanks button by accident. Use better battery stats to find your rogue app. I HIGHLY doubt its a kernel issue. Deep sleep is just fine here.

Ok guys... new Golden Kernel means new Golden I/O Scheduler (I'm planning the wiki) now your phone should run like butter /Wipe chache e Data, always!!
Enjoy
Well, new update (1.5) with this new version I have introduced the new GoldenX2 governor: a GoldenX governor less aggressive, so more battery friendly but more fast, smooth and clean. A lot of news, read the changelog
Enjoy!
P.S. Wifi or 3g network? Now there aren't more differences
Here's all! The 1.6 version should be a major update but let's see the new higlight features like a totally new Hybla TCP Congestion, or the new Undervolt (enjoy high freqs with low battery drain).
Enjoy also the GoldenX2 gov and Golden I/O both tweaked for the better experience on the planet
For more info ceck the changelogs

And the best thing is you gave option to choose to include DTW or not (don't like that battery drain). Gonna install right away on CM13
Edit: Wi-Fi works as it should. Good stuff that it has inbuilt various hotplugs. The ROM feels more smooth as a matter of fact, it's flying :v
Also it *seems* to solve the sometimes slow charging issue (edit : charging still slow)
Great job, 1st kernel which works with Wi-Fi on newer MM ROMs and don't have to look to other kernels due to extra features I don't like. (Using the Stock version simply)

Yup.. Working perfectly..
Flashed DTW OC version on latest Ivan's MM rom
Edit :Battery draining very fast and little bit heat even when my phone is locked.. When I lock the phone.. there is red light blinking on proximity sensor continously.. Setting of the kernel is at default.
I will try stock now ?
Edit 2: Same problem with Moshi stock.. ?
Working fine on Audahadi's cm13. DT2W one.
Lost only 4% of battery during 10 hours of deep sleep.
I love this kernel...the best!
I have never seen such a rich feature kernel ever thank you for your hard work. Will test it and will write again.....
