[Q] Stock color settings with franco.Kernel - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone.
Currently I've flashed franco.Kernel M1 on my Nexus 4. I love this kernel except for its modified color settings. I prefer the original color settings from the stock kernel and may I ask how can I get "exactly" the same color settings from the stock kernel in franco kernel? Thanks!

Erm unless you clicked on recommended values then it will be the stock colours. If you clicked on recommended settings then you will also be able to find set kernel defaults which is somewhere there.

But I think the kernel default from franco kernel is not the same with that of the stock kernel. The color setting seems to have been modified since certain nightly(r70?). Anyway thanks for your help!

Your right afaik, Franco uses LG presets for default.
Can't help with the settings though, Franco has changed it too many times for me to keep up, and I think some of the needed settings are unexposed.

Just download trickster mod and set the colours to default. You will most probably not notice any difference because like I said when you flash franco the colours are still the stock ones.

As has already been pointed out above, Franco kernel does *not* use the same colours as the stock kernel.

[request] stock 2.3.4 kernel with voodoo

Hi,
Can someone make a stock 2.3.4 kernel with just voodoo and nothing else?
Coz I'm getting best battery with stock ROM and kernel but the colors are bad!

Sure. Patiently waiting.
Actually after downloading my own post and looking, it will work for your phone. It only flashes the zImage and keeps your current ramdisk. So ya that should work but here is one that flashes the whole boot.img (attached)
Future reference: zImage + ramdisk=boot.img
So...any kernel that just flashes the zImage will be advertised as working on any rom.
The zips that are for GSM or NS4g specifically will most likely have the boot.img in it as opposed to just flashing the zImage. It flashes the whole boot partition.
For future reference the paid app only requires root, not a custom kernel. Show support and buy the extremely well made and maintained app.

Valuable info there. Thanks for the heads up!
And the paid app doesnt let you change the color profiles. Only has voodoo sound improvements. Bought it already.
Flashed it. Everything looking good. But I cant change the gamma and rgb values in voodoo control. Does it have the older voodoo drivers? All i want to be able to do is set custom rgb and gamma values on the stock kernel. If you can help me do that i'll be grateful! Thanks for all you've already done though.
Color profiles isn't available to you in voodoo app?

The one he made for you includes the pre 2.2.3 colors. That kernel will not allow the rgb and gamma hack. The pre 2.3.3 colors are awesome anyways.

Exactly. I was asking him if he could possibly make one where I can change RGB values and Gamma. No fret otherwise. The pre-2.3.3 one is running awesome.
Personally that's what i was looking for...one small problem though...i cannot connect to wireless anymore...in settings under wireless it says error and i can't even turn it on...ideas?

Hi - Is there any chance someone could make a 2.3.6 GRK39F kernel with the pre-2.3.3 color drivers that works on I9020T? - Thanks in advance!
I think the Lucid kernel is quite close to stock. It has Voodoo + BLN + UV. BLN is deactivated by default if you don't install the BLN app from the market. UV is applied by default, but this kernel is known to be one of the most stable kernel anyway, so I don't think UV is a bad thing.
You can save a lot of hassle by using the Lucid kernel rather than asking someone to compile the kernel for you. There are both NS and NS4G kernels, and pre-2.3.3 and post-2.3.3 colour profiles, a total of 4 types of kernels to choose from.

I looked at that. Problem is a) it doesn't support 2.3.6, and b) it's not the stock kernel. I don't want undervolting or BLN or any of the other tweaks contained in that kernel. I'd rather just have the pure stock Google kernel with the pre-2.3.3 drivers, and no other mods. To each their own.

It does support 2.3.6. I'm running it with Oxygen 2.3, which is now based on 2.3.7. I understand people might not want to use BLN and UV, but I don't understand the logic...
These may be part of the kernel, but they don't get in the way of normal use if you simply ignore them. But anyway, each person has his/her own choices.

Help! problem with Trinity kernel

My nexus 7 is rebooting after a while using trinity kernel. I'm in stock 4.2.1 and I had random reboots even when no it applying any kind of OC just the kernel's default settings! What can I do to prevent that from happening?
Flash a different kernel.
Not all tablets are created equal. Whereas one will play nice with a particular kernel, the very next one off the assembly line may not.

i bet its an app causing it.
Don't know why I initially glanced over you being on 4.2.1. Random reboots are actually a known issue with 4.2.x due to a problem at the OS level. Essentially, anything that uses geolocation can inadvertently trigger a reboot. Apps such as HD Widgets have updated to use a workaround until Google themselves fixes the issue. In the meantime, the only certain way to avoid the reboots is to turn off location services or downgrade to 4.1.2.
Unfortunately, this bug isn't consistently reproducible, but it does affect the entire Nexus line of devices using 4.2 and 4.2.1.

the kernel might use a different method than the one the app "knows". for an example, cm color control with trinity kernel on the gnex. both cm and trinity have color control enabled, but since cm uses a different method of color control, you cant use the native cm rom color control option with trinity kernel, nor can you use the trinity kernel toolbox to control color on a cm rom/kernel. as they say, theres more than one way to skin a cat.

Re,
Yes, maybe, there is a lot of good feedback
But I don't use it so I can't really comment, I just read the thread. You have, like said above an enhanced stock kernel with undervolt and 2 other features, nothing more. And you have the custom kernel with overclock CPU / GPU, you can change vibration, I/O scheduler, TCP congestion, etc...
Read the OP for more informations and give it a try

Incorrect. CM barely touches the kernel as is, but the MAKO developer (his name escapes me) is even more conservative than that. It is nearly stock.

give it time
cm kernels come with everything there is and are often highly modified by the end of a device's life cycle
if this dev is conservative, ok, then it might take longer or until some new kid takes over.

both trinity and franco kernels are also cleaned up so theres no bloating. trinity is one of the least bloated kernels as it doesnt include any of the normal "buzzword" additions, only what is needed, highly optimized, debugging removed, "bull**** free" as it states in its op.

1. No you don`t have to wipe the device, just flash the kernel and install Franco Kernel Updater from Play and set it up.
2. Rom`s you have to try for yourself, there are plenty AOSP an AOKP roms out there.

I recommend the 4.2.2 Nightlies, these are the latest releases with the latest tweaks and options. You can download and install kernels from within the franco Kernel App from Play. Your device beeing slow can also be caused by ongoing background processes like apps, widgets and syncs that strain the cpu.

Look in custom kernel settings somewhere at the botom, there should be something about sound setttings i`am sure. Not on Franco atm so don`t know the exact location. Or look on the Franco kernel thread and use `search this forum`in the top right section for sound control.

It does accordingly to your configuration but there is definitely a significant change. Just make sure you unlocked your bootloader before flashing any custom kernels. You can start configurating bit by bit by referring to my values.
