I had a question and hopefully someone here knows, I am using stock ROM and installed this kernel last night. Every time I plug in a USB even for a second it resets my battery timer. Is there any way to get it to go back to what it was before? I find this rather annoying, but if it can't be changed I guess I'll live with it.
I do not believe there is anything that can be done. When you plug in the USB the phone starts to charge. Android resets the battery info because it will be different because of the charge on the battery. You will have to get a app that is like betterbatterystats. Thats the name of it in the play store. There is a option on that to give you info based on last boot. It also gives other options as well.

Other kernels with USB fast charge enabled?

Fast charge is probably disabled by default. At least that's how it is for me when I flashes. You can also toggle fast charge using francos app, use a file manager and open the file if it's 0 then it's off by default. Not that difficult

R13 has been the best for me. It is super smooth with no lag and the most important is that the battery seems to be a lot better. 3hrs off the charger, 30 min screen on and 15 min of voice calls and still at 90%(wifi off). My device was getting warm on previous builds but hasn't gotten warm at all since flashing R13. Great job man!

I cannot find the settings for fast charge in the app. Can anyone give a hint here? Love to see that switched on.

Thanks!

How to Enable Fast Charge without the app

adb root or remount
adb shell
Add USB Fast Charge - to enable: echo 1 > /sys/module/msm_otg/parameters/fast_charge
and that is it.

I don't have the app and since I normally use a different kernel I have no intention of buying the app in the near future unless I stay on this kernel (so far it has become my preferred as I'm able to make my phone stick to the lowest frequency), so for those who do not have the app either, enjoy!

Trickster mod is a good free application that most people use but it isn't fully supported on this kernel but it might. Not sure if it supports fast charge for the n4

R12 and r13 have been flawless. Using francos interactive setting and 384-12XX. No lag what so ever and scrolling is smooth as can be. I don't play games really just surf and listen to music.

Franco if you need a bumper let me know. I'm in Belgium and when mine come in I can blast one to you. Just got 5 and estimated shipping was 3-5 days.

Sorry for off topic.

Amazing kernel!!!! Look my battery life!!!!

ROM cyanogenmod 10.1 - 9dec
Kernel francisco.franco.r13

The battery can improve more, insurance!!!

I think if Franco does well, the battery performance may exceed to razr maxx.

After further though I remembered having downloaded and installing the latest CM10 release. I didn't do a dirty flash, but I did not wipe dalvik cache after restoring my apps via backup, leading me to think that it had something to do with it.
