Do you plan on adding voltage control for the screen like Ezekeel has on his app? If not do you plan on adding experimental kernels with lower screen voltages? What are they now? 
THanks!

Sure. I'll post the one I'm using now, but if Franco has any problem with me posting this I'll take it down ASAP.
It's Franco's 140 and has the modified lazy governor I mentioned before, but it also has Ezekeel's Vibrator control, FSync control, SIO scheduler, and a bunch of other governors I was testing before settling on Lazy.
FYI it has low regulator voltages that work fine on my device, but may cause display issues for you.
Thanks how would I take advantage of the other stuff you put in?

If you have Glados Kernel app from market you can use that. Otherwise...
/sys/class/misc/vibratorcontrol/vibrator_strength
vibrator strength (default = factory setting; value must be between 1000-1500)
/sys/class/misc/fsynccontrol/fsync_enabled
enable = 1, disable = 0 (default enabled)
If you want any of these to be set at boot you have to make or add to an /etc/init.d script.
For example - "echo 1500 > /sys/class/misc/vibratorcontrol/vibrator_strength" (no quotes) in a file named 95vibcontrol

^^^ What he said. How the hell did you get 5 days out of this!? Do you touch your phone ever?
I don't support any troubleshooting from this compile, if users want to use that then they are on their own. But some clarification is needed:
- My kernel has fsync off since day 1
- SIO is added and enabled since a few releases already

Dunno. My kernel already has VAUX and VUSIM voltages reduced.
1 - FIOPS is still too experimental.
2 - It's interesting but I don't like the concept but I respect Ezekeel's idea and thrill for inovation.
What are the voltages at? Anyway to change them with terminal?

* Disable Sync framework for now - it seems too experimental and it was slowing the kernel down. I also think it was causing few random reboots to some users which makes sense since in the patch description it says it can give a few kernel deadlocks. Everything should be ok now
* Merged another Interactive patch
* Merged a patch from TI that adds 3 local caches for DSSCOMP that improves reliability, autonomy and efficiency of the module

Been really busy - don't have time to sift through the dozen or so pages I've missed so excuse me if this is repetitive.
Went from 135 -> 140 tonight. Noticing constant dropped signals associated with screen_off.

729
Lazy
No UV
Gen Hotplug ON
SR ON
EDIT: Should I try 141, was there any patching for this implemented Franco?

Franco, I made some changes to the Lazy governor that I believe are better for our phones. I attached my cpufreq-lazy.c to this post if you're interested. Of course, you're free to do whatever you want
I changed the sampling rate to 10,000 to match that of the other governors in your kernel. I also modified how "min_timeinstate" is calculated so that it isn't coming out equal to the sampling rate anymore. If sampling rate = min_timeinstate, you're not getting the benefit of preventing frequencies from quickly bouncing back and forth. In Ezekeel's original thread on lazy he had a sampling rate at 10,000 and min_timeinstate to 40,000, so I changed it so that after the calculations it comes out similar to that with a sampling rate of 10,000 with a min_timeinstate of 30,000. At least with my phone, this seems to have helped reduce the "bounce" effect.

1562I hate big OPs.
Works on all roms. r390 and newer versions are ONLY for 4.3 or newer.
F.A.Q:
1. My device rebooted or crashed, how can I help?
A: Get me /proc/last_kmsg on pastie.org.
2. Battery sucks, my device is not entering deep sleep. FIX PLOX!
A: Fix it yourself, it's an app waking your device up not the kernel's problem
3. Signal is dropping since I flashed the kernel, amg u sucks!
A: The kernel has nothing to do with gsm/cmda signal. Make sure you have the latest radios
4. Do I need to wipe anything when flashing this kernel?
A: No.
5. Does this kernel has X or Y mod?
A: Learn to read, everything you need to know is in the features list, changelog or public repo.

haha. It's been a crazy two days. But it's been a blast.
Now, sleep is over, time to get back to work!
Yes and no. Here's what we're thinkin' so far.
THIS POST WILL BE A RECAP OF THE LAST FEW PAGES OF RESEARCH!
This was my original settings that I've been using for weeks:
So to make the short hand easier, we kept it in that order and just said: 20000/50/40000/20000 became 20k/50/40k/20k became 2/5/4/2. Make sense?
Here is a breakdown of what they each mean:
This is a good explanation that I wrote back on page 3038:
So Google's default is 10/5/6/2. Lower numbers are all better for performance except min_sample_time (there higher is faster). So our goal is to find a sweet spot.
The default 10 is for "Once speed is set to hispeed_freq, wait for this long before bumping speed higher in response to continued high load." So we think 10 is too high, but if you go too low, then you'll be using the higher freqs a lot more than you need and it will hurt the battery. So we are leaning towards 6 (60000) for above_hispeed_delay.
The default 5 is for "when the CPU hits X% amount of load, then jump to the hispeed_freq." Again if this one is too low then it will cause the higher freqs to be used more often then they need, so we actually turn go_hispeed_load up a little bit to 7 (70).
The default 6 is for "how long do I wait before lowering the clock speed from what it's currently at." So the lower we put this, the better battery will be. We're still trying to decide between 3 (30000) and 5 (50000). Osm0sis is getting more lag at lower levels, and finds the best performance mark at 5. So we turn min_sample_time down a little from stock to help with the battery.
The default 2 is for "wait this long before changing the clockspeeds from what it's at now." While technically 2 sounds better because it's changing more often, Franco believes that by setting the timer_rate to be the same thing as the CPU sample_rate (which is preset at 30000), then that will make the CPU more efficient at switching. So we increased it from 2 (20000) to 3 (30000).
So TO RECAP: Using the stuff from above, Google's defaults for these settings are 10/5/6/2 and we are changing them to 6/7/3/3 or 6/7/5/3 (again, still testing that third number for the min_sample_time).
Does that make sense for everyone interested in following along? Any questions? Feel free to try out these settings yourself (the easiest way is with Franco's app or something like Trickster). We want as much feedback as possible on this.
The next kernel release will have the totally tweaked settings for everyone to test without having to change their own stuff.

Alright so here's something that's been requested for awhile.
I wrote it up recently with Franco's stamp of approval, so I'm posting it here now. Please direct people back to this post from other threads.
This can/should be everyone's go-to when experiencing problems after updating to a new kernel build, you get stuck in a bootloop, or you think there's a conflict between ROM and kernel (or kernel tweaking app) you can't track down, since likely some leftover settings (voltages, etc.) are at fault. It's also useful if you just want to make sure you're running clean defaults. This should work on any device franco.Kernel and f.Ku support, as well as a variety of other devices, kernels and control apps: eXperience (Free/Pro), GLaDOS Control, TricksterMod, Trinity Kernel Toolbox, ROM Toolbox (Lite/Pro), SetCPU, Faux123 Kernel Enhancement Project, Performance Control and Synapse.
Flashing this via custom recovery of your choice will delete the kernel app settings file(s), disable init.d and userinit.d scripts by moving them to a subfolder (/system/etc/init.d/off/ and /data/local/userinit.d/off/ respectively) and wipe cache and dalvik-cache for good measure.
Hopefully it helps!
Note: If your ROM has a Performance/Tweaking App built-in you should also manually disable any Set On Boot options it has. For example, I couldn't include clearing CM's Advanced Settings since they're built into the main com.android.settings/Settings.apk along with a lot of other Android OS settings (APNs, Developer Options, etc.), so to run clean and without conflicts on CM you need to unset them yourself.
You should also avoid having more than one control app installed at a time. Conflicts have been reported even with everything "unset" in two apps.
I also chose not to disable anything your ROM may have in /data/cron or /system/addon.d since some rely on it heavily, so you can choose to review those directories' contents and whether you want to leave them enabled on your own. I also left out disabling sysctl.conf since that's done by f.K and the Franco's Dev Team scripts, and also seemed a bit heavy-handed for this zip script.
Download counts for the previous versions: 790; 2678.105Sure. Happy to post my franco.Kernel settings here for anyone who wants to try them. I'll keep these up-to-date if I change them.
These are my f.K settings, my DirtyV settings can be found here.
Fsync on just in case anything ever happens I want my data protected. That said I do disable it temporarily if I ever want a bit more performance in an app or game. SR is hardcoded disabled in the latest builds.
The other thing worth noting is I set my color settings on boot with an init.d script. Doing it that way you can end up with a completely different result from the same values. The contrast, blacks and colors are much more natural. Also it's seamless which is nice; they take effect during the Google logo. Attached is my init.d script for that. Alter it to your own color settings, remove the .txt extension, push to /system/etc/init.d/ and set the correct perms; rwxr-xr-x (chmod -R 755 /system/etc/init.d in Terminal Emulator).
900colorsettings can be found with my other init.d scripts (from Franco Dev Team), here: https://s.basketbuild.com/filedl/devs?dev=osm0sis&dl=osm0sis/scripts/900colorsettings
Note: On my new replacement screen, setting the color multiplier too early in the boot (any time before the boot animation) made everything look dark, oversaturated, uncontrasted and dusky; basically the opposite of the way it used to work on my old panel. Adding sleep 2; before that line in the init.d script fixed this, so experiment if your panel is more like my new one, and the init.d as-is after you put in your settings makes it look worse.
[ New init.d script with my new colors. I need the sleep 4 because of my problem in my "Note" above, so comment it out if you don't need it, it will make it look worse. Previous download counts were 1880, 646, and 307. Thanks everyone! ]
