[kernel][v11.4][Jun 20][Gallimaufry and Aggressive Governors] PopcornKernel!

---

PopcornKernel for the Galaxy Nexus
For 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 ROMs

The philosophy of this kernel is to combine a stable, snappy (real-use wise, not benchmarks) kernel with great battery life. We (me and jdkoreclipse) feel we have achieved the best balance of these in PopcornKernel.

Now on to the goodies!

Features:

• Optimized for Size
• Lots of debugging disabled
• Gallimaufry governor (modded ondemand, 2-stage ondemand plus speed tweaks)
• Aggressive governor(modded conservative, lots of tweaks to increase snappiness while saving power)
• NoHz
• SLQB
• TUN
• Disabled fsync
• Swap support
• CFQ, Deadline, and noop i/o schedulers
• PegasusQ Governor from Samsung
• Screen-off hotplugging added to AgressiveX, GallimaufryX, and InteractiveX governors (imoseyon)
• ARM RWSEM Algorithm
• Battery Life Extender - Ezekeel
• Color Control - Ezekeel and supercurio
• Fast Charge - Chad0989
• TempControl - Imoseyon and Ezekeel
• GPU OC Control - Imoseyon (modified by me)
• SoundControl - Greg White and Ezekeel
• Wifi Screen-Off Power Management - Francisco Franco

v11.4

• evdev patch to hold less wakelocks
• GCC graphite optimizations
• Some SIO (Simple IO Scheduler) Optimizations

Tweaks:
See HERE for all the tweaks and how to use them.

I also recommend PopcornScripts, a set of scripts by me and jdk to change kernel settings: http://rootzwiki.com...y-team-vicious/

ON REPORTING BUGS:
Please provide me with:

1. a detailed description of the bug
   
2. when the bug occured
   
3. a way of reproducing it, if possible
   
4. Your ROM and ROM version
   
5. Kernel version, frequencies, and governor (along with any other relevant settings)
   
6. logcat, dmesg or /proc/last_kmsg, whichever is applicable

NOTE: I will not look at bugs if they do not include the above, you must also be on a stable version of your rom (no alphas or betas) and you must not have any SetCPU profiles active.

Enjoy!

1. Download .zip
   
2. Reboot into recovery

I've been following your thread on rootzwiki and this is one of the best kernels for battery life so far.

Down loaded will have to get it a try later today. I have read some good things, hoping for battery life!

hopefully they get 7.0.2 up today much much better than 7.0.1

Just updated to 7.1. Running super smooth so far.

Miui powered Galaxy Nexus

My bad, turns out I didn't test the latest build enough. There were some sound issues and high-pitched whistling coming from the phone, but I just fixed it. If you downloaded 7.1, redownload from the link in the op again. Thanks!

btw, if you don't want to look in the op, here's the link for the fixed 7.1:
