Flash another kernel until franco updates his kernel..he might update it very soon

Flash nr 4 instead and wait till nr 6 comes and hope it fixes the issue

or you can flash this in cwm http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1673072

Uh buddy...if I'm not mistaken...you're not supposed to flash custom kernels via ODIN.....
Your custom binary count might have just gone up....(i.e., bye bye warranty).

If i'm not mistaken (correct me if i'm wrong), Franco's kernel is based on the CM9 kernel which has some WiFi issues. I have the same problem as you and i'm using the latest CM9 kernel on ParanoidAndroid.

I just flashed the speedmod kernel and everything is fine. The reason i was using franco kernel was because of the overclocking but i think i m gonna do just fine with the 1.4gh.

Hi all.
For those with wifi problems under some franco kernel, what do you have under
Settings -> Wi-fi -> Advanced (menu button) -> Keep Wi-fi active??
I used to give never under this option. This morning I have changed it to always and for now my wifi problems went away under franco kernel r3 and KingDroid 2.0 + s3.
Sorry if options don't check accurately. My NOTE wears spanish language.
Regards.

franco kernel, wifi issue still alive

I flashed franco kernel r6 and the wifi issue is still alive and the precise issue is the device after installing the kernel fails to obtain IP address , Contacted the developer with this issue and he said its a strange and rare problem to which he doesn't have an answer and I have been working on this from last couple of days, day in day out , there seems to be no solution I could invent nor i could find on this site or any where else. I tried to replace my franco kernel with Abyss kernel and after my phone doesn't boot at all . I am struck .

His kernel is not even remotely similar in architecture to the CM9 kernel.
My guess is that it's because he changed the default power management mode during suspend from PM_FAST to PM_MAX - PM_MAX may seem like a great thing, but it tends to make the Broadcom chip wig out and do stuff that often winds up consuming MORE power, not less, in addition to causing all sorts of weird connectivity issues.
Edit: Never mind... In this regard his kernel is behaving just like standard kernels. His wifi_pm tweak does nothing in the current code (it's #ifndefed out by CUSTOMER_HW_SAMSUNG)

I had the same problem which does have a work around. If you manually set up the connection it should work. Use the default values except the gateway IP which was the problem for me. The gateway default needed specifying. But with random reboot on all Franco versions I just went to speed mod. Works flawlessly.

No idea why some people have problems and others don't but for me R5 is the best I have tested. Only one to deliver consistent top notch performance.

[Req] CM kernel with UV

Hi there,
Im searching for the CM kernel with the ability to undervolt as a kind of add in it?
Is such a kernel available? Can anyone build such a kernel?
Thx

Cm is just stock kernel. Faux made an enhanced stock kernel with undervolt and gamma control http://faux.androidro.ms/mako/mako-jb-enhanced_stock_422_r2.zip

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

i dont think they built in the ability to adjust voltage. but, since its open source, anyone can build tbe kernel from cm source and add the ability to change voltages.

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.
just don't say cm barely touches kernels

there are many other kernels, better than cm kernel, that offer the ability to adjust voltages. theres trinity kernel, franco kernel, faux..

Wrong! Try Harsh. It's flash it and leave it. Very good kernel. Highly recommended. Supports UV and uses mpdecision.

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.

Faux got enhanced stock kernel not moded alot. Just some unlocks and fixes. Maybe try this one. Im already on enhanced and its stable plus you got gamma unlocked.

What Kernel is more like the stock?
Faux or Franco?
Thanks.

Both are so far from stock it's not worth answering. Try Harsh kernel.

[Q] Franco Nexus 4 r97 Governor

Hi, new user here so I can't actually post this into the franco kernel thread, but is anyone else not able to change the governer on franco r97 (nexus 4) to anything other than conservative? I'm on bigxie's unofficial PUB build 5 and using trickster mod.

Give Franco Kernel a shot; Carbon should also have that option or just about any. I believe Trickster Mod has its own App to, which would work well for that specific kernel.

[Q] HW LED not working with Air Kernel

Hi there,
I hope this is the correct forum as i'm currently now allowed to post directly to the Air Kernel thread as a newbie. I noticed that with the latest Air Kernel #10 for the Nexus 4 (also with Franco's Kernel) the hardware LED doesn't work any more. I reverted back to stock and it works flawlessly.
Is this still a bug in these kernels or do I have to re-enable the LED with a special tool?

Works for me, using Purity ROM.

Led works for me as well on paranoidandroid with Franco kernel.

Hmm, this is strange: I now got it running to. I restored the old nandroid backup with the stock kernel and then i flashed Air kernel again. Now the LED works.

[Q] install AK kernel with slimkat rom

I am now using slimkat beta 1.95 with stock kernel of the rom and I want to flash the ak kernel v.305 on my phone.
Can I flash it directly?
BTW, how does this kernel do in battery life and what app can I use to adjust the performance？
Thanks...

And I am using the trickster Mod ,I fond a problem that I can't lock the min frequency to 162HZ or even 384hz, it will jump back to 912Hz automatically. Howver, the system monitor app shows that my cpu was working on 384-1512Hz.
Do you know how to solve this pro?
BTW, I have used ak kernel for almost 1 day and I think ak kernel makes the battery drain faster than the slim stock kernel....kind of upset:crying:
