Hey pengus!
I saw someone complain about wi-fi drain and it was like 15% in 12 hours... and you told him to piss off, quite rightly.
But how about 15% in half an hour?
Ok, as promised, you'll love this one
Change Log
*Added USB Fast Charge mode
*Net: Various ipv4 related fixes from kernel 3.4
*Wifi: Lowered default dBm of the wifi card to 19dBm (<3 my health)
*Wifi: Raised scan time for wifi from 3s to 8s (<3 my battery)
*Wifi: fixed compatibility between 10, 10.1 and ICS
*Wifi: fixed battery drain
*Wifi: removed background scan (let Combo Scan do the job)
*Row: Multiple patches from 3.4
*Row: Implemented urgent requests (speedy gonzales style)
*Disabled LG FOTA crap in muic (and hopefully autofix some bugs)
*Disabled android compaction process (let's have the new awesome lmk do the job)
*Modified kernel entropy generation (the new black apparently)
*input: monotonic input events (fasteeeer, i said faaaaaaaster)
*increased slightly timers ticks/second (oh, this is going to be felt a lot)
*gpio timers from kernel 3.8
*android logger from kernel 3.8
*prepared makefiles for gcc 4.7.X (the next step)
This one comes bundled with the iwtools and the magnificent Kowalski Manager app made by wfd specifically for this kernel !!!
For CM10, to have perfect compatibility with wifi, please flash the wpa_supplicant_8_update.zip in my Addons folder on dev-host. It will update your wpa_supplicant in the system and you'll get the same behaviour as on 10.1 and ICS !
As usual the kernel downloads are on dev-host in my Kowals****rnel folder
Any way to lower dBm in kernel manager to a permanent dBm? Like 11... because it gets reset at wifi off/on...
So far amazing job as always!!

Have to wipe cache/dalvik to install 011 kernel and wpa_supplicant_8_update?
It was connected and it was right next to the AP...My wifi drain started the moment I got out of range of connected AP... No drain after I installed "DHCP Client replacement/update for CM10", in second post.
Was your phone connected to AP when wifi was on?
when connecting phone to comp, with new kernel , it seems that it isn't recognized at all ...
so..i was try to revert to Kow. 10 and all is fine. so...something is bugged or... ?
btw, new BL CM 10.1, here
Hi,
Thanks for the awesome kernel and wfd thanks for the awesome app!
I have a few noob questions,
1. Hot spot power management works only if hot spot is active right? So activating it will not make a difference when it's off? What exactly does it do?
2. Setting TX power to the lowest (4) will affect only the wifi signal right?
3. Activating psp power saving mode will disable wifi when screen off right? Does it do anything else?
4. Keeping USB fast charge when not needed will affect anything else?

iwconfig wlan0

iwconfig wlan0 txpower XX (where XX is the value in dBm)
