Who can ease our minds? (LED of death) - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've just read reports of someone getting the red LED of death without even over clocking.. Does anyone have any good advice as to how to avoid this? I'm running aokp with _motley kernel.. Seriously thinking about going back to stock.. Am I worrying too much?

It seems like it only happens when running benchmarks.

Faux123 kernel affecting wireless charging?

Hey guys, I'm wondering if anyone knows a setting in the latest kernel (008-tbm) that affects wireless charging. I am on stock ROM with only this kernel installed. Wireless charging worked fine until I installed this kernel, so I know something is goofed up with my kernel settings. I'm UV -12.5 mV global

Why the hell are you asking this in nexus 4 GENERAL? When there is a thread for this kernel in Original development.. Sigh

he doesnt have enough posts to post in the development sections.
Thank you for clearing that up for him. I hate posting stuff because everyone has to be an @$$ about helping out. If you don't want to help just move on, I don't want to hear how stupid I am just what I can do that I haven't thought of. Thanks

try raising your voltages, undervolting can have create such issues. every device is different in what it likes and dislikes.
OK thanks for the help guys. I'll try that right away. Right now it'll show as charging for about five minutes and then for some reason will stop.

OK I tried that and it didn't work, I'm using the intellidemand governor and all of the rest of faux123's recommended settings. My CPU bin is nominal if that helps any.

Why do you even care? It mean that much to you?
Posts like yours are more annoying than the original threads.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
you should try a different kernel, just to make sure. it takes seconds to flash a kernel, so that shouldnt be an issue. if it works fine with another kernel, then the issue is the kernel. if the same issue persists, then its your rom or device.

Posts like this make me believe that Reddit & Rootwiki users are right, about the attitude of many XDA users..

unfortunately, many reddit and rootwiki users arent any better.
Yeah I'm on faux's kernel as well with no wireless charging problems. There's a good chance that it might be stopping because your battery is getting too hot. Do you have daydream enabled? Does your phone feel hot when charging?

Yeah I just got it working for about 30 minutes and my phone is super hot. It's never been this hot before so I'm gonna try a new kernel and see what happens like someone said earlier to narrow it down if it's the kernel for sure

What charger are you using? Some do not work well with the N4.
I have used several different kernels and none have affected the wireless charging. My phone gets up to 41°C while charging wirelessly so getting hot is not unusual.
I'm using the official nexus charging orb from Google play. I just flashed a new kernel and wireless charging seems to be back working. I'm gonna give it another hour just to make sure before I make any assumptions

One weird thing I did notice though is that on faux kernel I could not UV past -50mV without my phone rebooting, making my lowest clock of 384Mhz at 850mV. However I'm on harsh kernel right now and it shows that my lowest clock is at 800mV stock without any adjustments and is working fine. Would that make any sense? I know the governors could possibly be more or less harsh on the battery but shouldn't the failure value resulting in rebooting be the same no matter what governor or kernel you use? I'm by no means an expert as to why I'm asking

Is not unheard of to not be stable at the same voltages with different kernels. Also if you were using one of the kernels with turbo boost your chip may have needed a higher voltage for the higher frequencies. Or not, I don't know lol.
Glad your charger is working now. I like Harshes kernel.

Harsh kernel on cm10 issue

Anyone else getting the sleep of death with this ROM and kernel combo?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I get sod with harsh kernel too, ever since it changed to 4.2.2. It happens every time the screen goes off for a minute when not on charger. I never get sod with any other kernel.... shrugs
Yep same here been happening here all morning since I installed it. Pushing the eject button on this one

Never happened to me
Tapalked with a Nexus⁴
Maybe your voltages are too low? Or maybe try a different governor/scheduler combo such as Ondemand and CFQ or ROW or something. Still, I'm not sure ...
Switched to orca......loving it

i understand that uv/oc messes with phones and tablets in the long run but will just flashing a kernel effect it also?
No. Absolutely not.

If anything, some kernels could probably be better for you.
Thanks allot both of you guys. I've been going from phone to phone flashinshing cynagonmod on almost all of them. Till I finally got a nexus 4 but was not so happy with battery. But will be flashing a new kernel. Also I'm running pacman ROM on it so and vice for kernels??????

Nexus 4 HORRIBLE Battery Drain, Getting hot

My nexus 4 has horrible battery drain and gets INSANELY hot when I'm doing things like browsing and using twitter apps etc, It gets even hotter and droped about 1% every 40-50 seconds when playing a game Like GTA 3.
Never had such bad problems before. Is there a fix?

I need an actual fix. Many people have this problem it isn't something that can be solved with an app.
This is a fix

If it's stock the only problems can arise from the apps installed

I am on stock rom and kernel but i have never experienced something like this , are you using custom kernel ?
Sent from my Nexus 4
No, as I said, many people have had these problems, it does not come form apps installed.
the google stock kernel kind of swings between bad and good. i've had it go hot and munching away battery or stay cool and deliver 2 days on regular use. i would suggest you try a custom kernel like franco, that has kind of stabilized it for me and i can forget about the kernel again.
