You did nothing wrong. Franco kernel just makes your phone awesome in the internals. Franco kernel doesn't have its own boot animation if that is what you are asking. Its not a new rom...

So how do i known i have it¿
I have nothing new in my settings and it stated quite quickly after flashing

What did you think would happen? You can't "see" a kernel, if you flashed it you're running it

Go to Settings>About phone and the kernel version will have the franco version as opposed to what was there originally

You make a good point.
Sorry for the open nobbiness
So how do i control the voltage, clocking etc...?
Do i need an app?

Hi,
You can use franco.Kernel updater.

The kernel is the engine of the "rom", to exploit the kernel modified as under / overvolt and under / overclock or change colors or have any other goodies you get other applications like "SetCPU" or in this case "franco.kernel updater" provided that the "rom" does not allow to do these things by default

Hey itayze!
Hmm i just found a solution.. u needa spend the money on the app..(Really worth!) and go to the thread and then manually download the latest build.. and then put it in your N4 search for the folder franco.updater > kernel backup put inside once done go to the phone and restore the kernel! Im using PA rom too.. REALLY weird why it cant auto flash...

order for flashing zips?

I'm new to flashing custom kernels, but what I would like to do is install PA Beta 8 with Gapps + Leankernel / Minimalistic kernel.
What order do I take?
1. Wipe Data / Cache
2. Flash PA
3. Flash Kernel
4. Flash Gapps
I plan to also backup my stuff and move it off the SD, and wipe the SD before starting so I can clean up my SD directory structure.
Anyone see something I'm missing/ should do different?
Thanks
1. Wipe data
2. Wipe cache
3. Format system
4. Install the rom
5. Install gapps
6. Reboot tablet and set it up
7. Flash kernel
On sgsiii we set the phone up so the rom can settle in and then start flashing kernels/mods. Might be an overkill pn n7 though.

You should be fine that way. You'll be overwriting things in the correct order.

There isn't a point imo. Some people like to wipe things 3 times and a a lot of other steps that seem unnecessary to me. The only thing I can think is if the custom kernel is unstable and it might help troubleshoot problems

hes right, there is no point. as there no point in wiping cache/dalvik if your wiping data(factory reset). if coming from a different rom then wipe data, flash the rom, flash the gapps, and flash the kernel. if updating the same rom then flash the rom, flash the gapps, and flash the kernel.

Liquidsmooth (can't turn on now)

I was use a nexus4tookit v1.3.0 to root my nexus 4 , however I was download a Liquidsmooth and install from sdcard , but now the mobile cannot open , just load in liquid-smooth logo screen, what can I do now? My nexus 4 is JOP40D , Thanks a lot.
You may have a bad download. Check the md5 sum or re download it and try flashing it again.

Restore the backup you should have made in recovery before you flashed anything.
Hold down power for ten seconds to reboot, then hold volume down to enter boot loader. You can get to recovery from there.
First off. You shouldn't be using a toolkit, they get you from Point A to Point B. But now you are trying to backtrack because your phone won't boot. This is why people shouldn't use toolkits, you are getting to Point B without knowing what you're doing.
Is it stuck at the bootanimation screen? Did you wipe factory settings when flashing the ROM?

If you can get into recovery, you're fine. Is this your first Android phone? Your first step after rooting is always to make a backup.
Anyway, flash Franco's kernel. It plays well with liquid smooth. That should fix you up. You will figure out how if you STOP PANICKING and try.

and not use toolkits! take the 15-25 minutes to read whats going on and not click one button to do it all for you
that's why OP is panicing because he didnt manually do it, a toolkit did it for him.

We should use toolkits? I never said a thing about using them. The best way is to NOT use them. If this is your first android phone, it is IMPERATIVE to know simple ADB and Fastboot methods so you won't fall into the common errors when people use toolkits getting them into things they don't understand.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1972508 is a guide to get started after you boot up, you can then proceed to go into the Original and Android dev forums to select your ROM / Kernel that you desire. I'd recommend CM10.1 (jellybro) + Franco Kernel R20. --- so after unlocking bootloader. Put the ROM, Gapps, Kernel on your phone storage using USB cable.
Use computer --- ADB... "adb reboot bootloader"
fastboot flash recovery <nameofrecovery>.img (download TWRP or CWR and put it in same folder as fastboot /platform-tools/ most likely)
boot into recovery (use volume up/down to navigate then power to enter)
wipe factory settings,dalvik,cache
flash rom then gapps then kernel (gapps and kernel can be reversed up to you)
then reboot.
done.
Apologies I meant that we should not be using tool kits my bad

No problem. Just read what I said above, if u have any questions, feel free to ask. It's a very straight forward guide on how to unlock your bootloader. The stuff thats not included in there would be:
- Download ROM, Gapps (optional depending what rom you use. the rom says whether its included or not, if it doesnt say assume its in there), kernel (optional but recommended u switch --- upon flashing a new version u will need to reflash the kernel)
- Flashing Custom Recovery while in Bootloader Mode (which I said in my post on how to do.. basically download TWRP or CWR [you choose, i recommend twrp] and put the .img folder in the same folder as fastboot.exe)
- Use vol up / down to go to recovery in bootloader mode (it says the text on the phone)
- Wipe factory
- Flash ROM, Gapps, Kernel (gapps and kernel order doesnt matter. ROM goes first)
- Reboot to system
..... done.
edit: yeah what estallings said thanks given.
Thank you very much for your help I'm going to try and unlock the bootloader now I'll let you know how I get on to back everything that's on my phone already can I just sync to my Google account

When you mean wipe everything... just factory settings, dalvik, cache right?
- Wipe Factory, Dalvik, Cache
- Flash CM10
- Flash Gapps
- Flash Kernel
- Reboot.

Interesting. First time I've heard this, I will have to try that sometime although for the last year I've been pretty content with CM + Franco set up. Maybe when a new version of Android comes out, I swap over to that AOSP ROM for a little while but once CM is set, im moving.

[Q] how to edit the "quick settings" toggles?

Is there a way to edit the toggles in the quick settings (when you pull down with 2 fingers from the status bar)? Can you add custom toggles and can the toggles actually be toggles and not just shortcuts to menus in the settings ?
You can't edit them on stock, although the toggles should all be toggles as long as you don't long press them. If you haven't updated to stock 4.2.2 yet then do that.

Thanks I never knew the toggles could be activated with a long press . I really want to add some custom toggles to this list though (flashlight, volume etc) - I'm rooted on stock ROM

I tried to flash CM but it didn't work a while ago. I kept getting stuck at the CM boot animation and I didn't know what went wrong because I'm new to android
You need to do the following for CM...
1. Nandroid!
2. Wipe everything in CWM (I use a little script I got from another user for this so I don't have to do it all manually!)
3. Flash the ROM
4. Flash the GAPPs
5. Reboot
It should then boot up as normal

I tried reflashing CM10.1 and same thing happened I was stuck at the boot animation. Before I flashed I made a new nandroid backup and wiped cache.
Do I have to wipe to factory default?
Also probably important to note i have franco kernel flashed on my stock ROM , should I remove fk and try and flash again and once I get cm working flash fk bac

Absolutely you have to wipe data. Wipe cache and dalvik cache (dalvik is located in advanced menu) as well or you'll get bootloops. Franco works with CM afaik.

The backup will be stored in the "SD card" which will not be cleared if you do a factory reset.

You don't need to remove the franco kernel before flashing a custom ROM. The new ROM will come with its own kernel. If you want to keep using Franco kernel, you'll need to flash the kernel after you flash the ROM and Gapps.
If you aren't too particular about changing the entire rom and doing all that drama.. Install power toggles and put a widget on the notification drop down menu... It has more options than the settings list has.. I know this is not what u had asked here.. But I was just trying to tell u what I found easier.. Cheers

Just to add on another question, I was using franco kernel updater free and the latest version I can see in there is 164, I know that this will not work, so what should I do. also I was reading about the whole issue with jss and jwr, so just to make sure, franco r174 is compatible with pa 3.96, right?

Yes PA 3.96 is JWR based rom and official Farnco kernel r174 is a JWR kernel.. So you are good to go.
Flash it and relax. You can find the latest r174 in the OP's thread(original dev section)
Instructions for PA 3.69:
I'm on PA 3.69 (4.2.2 not 4.3) and using Franco nightly r165 which is the same as milestone 3.
Get goo manager from play store and click on "browse by compatible rom" then select paranoid android, then mako and flash 3.69, then download franco kernel updated free from play store and flash it.

See this is what you have to do..
As you are on 4.3 and twrp installed download PA3.96(JWR based ROM so flash a JWR kernel) from original dev section,
Franco r176 kernel_JWR. Gapps latest in the same PA's thread updated one is 20130815.
Installation steps:
Factory reset
wipe cache
wipe dalvik cache
wipe system
wipe data
install the rom then gapps
AGAIN wipe cache and dalvik cache
flash Supersu v1.51(search for it-google)
flash the franco kernel
reboot.
enjoy the rom.:good:
Additional help(optional if you using TB.)
ROOT IS WORKING BUT IT NEEDS TO SORT OF BE ENABLED
1. Enable developer option by pressing build number 7 times in settings>about
2. Enable usb debugging and set root access to adb + apps in developer settings
3. root should now work
Titanium backup may not work on 4.3:
To fix it:
1. In tb go to menu>preferences>backup folder location
2. Press detect
3. Then you will get two options ...choose the one with legacy in its path
4. Then it will ask you to move backup to that folder.... Select that
5. Restart app and restore.

It might be your router issue.. pl check with the settings.. I had also read in the PA thread about the wifi issue so it better you can ask it over there, if you are lucky enough the exact person can help you who had the same problem .
Thanks, your description helped me to set up PA together with Franco Kernel.
Unfortunately, I have lost root access now.
I set the phone to developer's mode, but can't find any option to 'set root access to apps + data'.
I also tried to flash supersu, but after doing that, both TitaniumBackup and SuperSu report that there is no root access.
What can I do?
thanks, r.
FYI, I've solved the problem by myself using Nexus Root Toolkit.

HI, I think I can help a little bit.
First,you have to be ROOT. find how make it using search.
Second Install a RECOVERY,could be CWMR (clockworkmod recovery, old one) o TWRP (teamwinrecoveryproject, the new one). Both are more less the same.
Later, make a nandroid (backup of your phone, very important if youre thinking to flash ) and start follow the tutorials to install Custom Roms
Sorry if I forgot something, now Im trying to keep alive my defy and still remembering things from 3 years ago !!!

1. Root with Framaroot (Framaroot-1.8.1.apk).
2. Install SndInit (SndInitDefy_2.3.apk).
3. Reboot to custom recovery and flash TWRP 2.6.3.0 recovery (.zip).
"Description: Flash this in either CWM5+ or TWRP recovery to get updated to the latest TWRP capable of flashing Kitkat ROMs. This wipes your existing custom/stock ROM."
4. Reboot again and flash CM11 (.zip).
When changing ROM, use this bootmenu_safe wipe (.zip).
"Description: Credits to YetAnotherForumUser for the wipe script. Wipes /data /cache, /system. But it leaves bootmenu and recovery intact so that an errant reboot doesn't entail an sbf flash."
Thank you all, but Absroid's reply was the most complete and correct, everything went fine and I'm using CM11 now
But I have a new question: I don't know how I can set the CPU frenquency to 1100MHz, the maximum I can go (Using Settings > Performance > Processor > Maximum CPU frequency) is 1000MHz, I'm using Interactive governor
Another thing, what is the best Governor and I/O scheduler?
The best are the default settings. But if you want to change them use the boot menu (vol- on blue led) and select CPU SETTINGS.

You can change your CPU setting in bootmenu... Most people would like to choose interative as their governer
