No offense to flar2, but if you are looking for pure battery life this is not the kernel to be on. This is definitely a great kernel and perhaps the best as far as a balance between battery life and performance goes, although it leans towards performance a little more. I have tried and tested all kernels and the best battery I got was on TeamSeven sense kernel, although it took a good bit of tweaking. If you want battery and don't care too much about performance use TeamSeven kernel with the settings I posted in its thread here ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=50709222 ). If you want more balance use the settings I posted here ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=50847630 . If you want decent to good battery and excellent performance use ElementalX. Here are my battery results from TeamSeven with my settings. And notice that my app usage way outweighs my screen %, that's bc I play a lot of heavy games. The main difference is governor I use, I can usually keep the cpu at lower frequencies without losing performance while saving battery. With ondemand that is not possible bc of the way it works, but you get a smoother experience from it. Hope this helps.

[One (M7) Original Android Development] ZaneChua:
Well I do care for general performance like screen lags and etc. Just not the gaming performance. But I'll try out the TeamSeven Kernel. I've never gotten more than 2h30mins of screen on and that's frustrating with a smartphone. Looking at maybe 4hours screen on which i think is possible with ElementalX right?
[One (M7) Original Android Development] steve1996:
Something is definitely wrong with your m7, consider changing a ROM. Getting 4 hours is a piece of cake, you should get at least 5 hours with the latest elemental x
[One (M7) Original Android Development] c5satellite2:
2h30min? Something is wrong, and it is not the kernel.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] guy4jesuschrist:
According to [MENTION=5276210]bebo_beta2002[/MENTION] (here) and [MENTION=2250916]wmg316[/MENTION] (here), it appears that ElementalX has just as good or better battery life performance. Not trying to point out that you're wrong, or even make it a competition of which kernel is better, but wanting to make sure I'm not overlooking something in the screenshots. I'm trying to find the best kernel for my preferences, and have only been following the Bulletproof and ElementalX kernel threads.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] E.Cadro:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] used your kernel exclusively on my one xl until it died 2 weeks ago and just got the HTC one a week ago. Flashed your kernel shortly after rooting and it has been great. Thanks for the work you put in. :good:
[One (M7) Original Android Development] Brembo109:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] Are you aiming to buy one of the 2014 flagship devices and develop for it? This is not meant to be a request. But I aim to buy one and because the devices are internally mostly identical, I put design and even possible development in to account for a choice. I know you are currently supporting many devices, but asking doesn't hurt :)

Outsh, I think I missed that post. So I'm out then, in my opinion the M8 is ugly as hell compared to the m7. Improvements seem to be the faster processor, the bigger batterie and the on-screen buttons. Maybe I will give Oppo or One+ a chance this year. Have fun with your new device flar ;)

2h 30minutes is with the default gpe kernel. Not ElementalX.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] javikiller:
Sometimes when I switch off the screen of the phone, it doesn't respond to dt2w, s2w and it not shows BLN (but there are push messages with notifications and sound, vibration and phone led is working). The only things not working are the functionality added by the kernel. The only way to wake the phone is push the power button on the top. It happens not always but very often.

Do you know why this happens?

Thank you!!!

This kernel is working very well.

Also battery life is good .

TeamSeven and setting I posted (2nd post) will not have any lag, as a matter of fact I can play NBA Jam lag free with those settings. Try it out. I'm trying to take away from this kernel bc it's a great kernel, I am just trying to help you out. Yes, it is possible with elementalx, it all depends on how you use the phone. If you do use TeamSeven make sure to use settings I posted or you won't get as good of battery life.

Disagree partly. 4 hrs is not hard but 5 is. It is ENTIRELY dependent on how you use your phone and only the lightest of users will surpass around 5:15 screen on time. But yeah you're right, 2:30 screen time is low

I'm not wrong, but you are :) I never said that this kernel gets bad battery life, I said it's the best for balance between performance and battery, which is probably the best way to go. But for people who want to have more battery life then going with a kernel that can be tweaked more is going to give more battery life. Flar2's governor ondemand is great and he has done an awesome job with it and this kernel is rock solid stable, but as a consequence of that being the only real choice of governor you are limited by its neglect of battery life in favor of speed and performance. Everything that I have said, if you read it, clearly states that this is best all around stable kernel. But not best for battery if you can deal with performance loss. TeamSeven can perform better than this kernel also, if tweaked that way, but at a cost of serious battery drain. Do you see what I'm saying? Also, I only clicked on the first link to gsam shot in your post and I don't get what proof you're showing :) The screen on time in it says like 2 hrs and something minutes. The screen on in the bottom left is where you should be looking for battery life. My pic says 4 hrs 40 min, and as I said in post if you look at app usage in gsam, for the most part the higher it is, the more heavily the person uses their phone and hence the lower their battery life will be.

:D And there's your education, BAM! :) HA HA, I'm just joking with that last line, I just thought it was funny :)
[One (M7) Original Android Development] flar2:
First of all, what version of the kernel and what rom do you have?

This has never happened to my phone.

You must provide dmesg log so i can see what is happening.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] tiho5:
I think that along everything else, ppl should post if (and how much) they've overcooked or undervolted. What are their main settings (default or... far from it).

This kernel is customizable. That being said, everybody actually may have different setup and some reports could be misleading.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] threetwentyfizzle:
Wow, you guys must be doing something crazy to achieve 4+ hours SOT, underclocking or airplane mode or something. I have never, in the year I've owned this phone, surpassed 3 hours. For me, 2.5 hours is average, and not bad, in addition to about 18 hours battery life from full charge to empty on this Kernel. For me this is more than enough. I don't do anything crazy to achieve insane screen time, I just use the phone normally, about 70% brightness, LTE all day, and a slight cpu/Gpu OC to make everything just a little more snappy. So what are you guys doing to achieve 5 hours SOT??
[One (M7) Original Android Development] TheUntouchable:
Using venom tweaks at the moment to configure your kernel, but with faux clock there are much more options.. Can you make a gama disabled version? :P ;)

That's the only thing that matters. On 20% you can get 7+ hours easily. This is my pretty heavy usage (Youtube over Wi-Fi) with 50% static brightness (swipeable :D):

http://mikanoshi.name/showcase/battery/4

I also have CPU profiles that will lower frequency every 20% of battery charge from 1890MHz, so 5 hours is very much possible.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] steve1996:
What do you guys do with your phones that take up so much battery? 2 hours 30 mins of screen is rubbish. Won't be that bad even with gaming.

Running renovate r67, elemental x 13.4, project era 13.2, music box 2.01, no exposed

No I didn't use airplane mode, used Wi-Fi when available, stock auto brightness or first brightness step in quick settings if auto is to dark. Lots of music. Didn't play any games. Battery saver off, geenify on

I'm now on 53% left and already got your so called average 2 hours 30 mins
[One (M7) Original Android Development] MrLuje:
I also have a "crappy" battery life, 3h SOT is my best (2h30 average)

What I noticed is that my proximity & luminosity sensors are always on when screen is on : 1h44 SOT right now and 1h44 proximity / 1h44 luminosity...

For those with 4h+ SOT, do you have the same behavior?

Thanks :)

[One (M7) Original Android Development] Rad ryan:
+1 I am on different rom and do play games + what he said. For everyone getting 2.5 hrs screen on time I would venture a guess that that is not normal. Either you all have a bad battery or hardware problem or some Rouge app or something going on that is killing your battery.

Get Greenify (100% do this if nothing else), better battery stats, Wakelock detector, gsam, system panel, or any combination of them and try to figure out what's eating your battery. I don't think any top phone manufacturer would release a flagship phone that died after 2 hours of normal usage, IMHO of course.

[One (M7) Original Android Development] flar2:
I don't think 2.5 hours is bad. It depends on what you do and how much your mobile connection drains.

I'm never on my phone more than a couple hours in one day, so I don't know what my max screen time would be. I'm on mobile data at least ten hours a day, and ib don't do anything to save battery, and I never worry about it.

Just don't use gamma. It's entirely faux's code, I've never looked at it really. I've never been too interested in gamma control, the screen is excellent without it.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] steve1996:
It's off when screen is off, which means I'm not using the phone, why leave it on if I'm not using it?
[One (M7) Original Android Development] guy4jesuschrist:
Haha, well, thanks for the "education". The reason I didn't understand why you said that TeamSeven gets better battery life, was based off of the pictures you shared, and the ones in the posts I linked to. BUT, I was looking at the average total battery life cycle. Good to know about the other things that are important to pay attention to. I've got both GSAM and BBS installed, but have never really been able to understand how to read the results in BBS. Thankfully, GSAM is easy to read and offers the desired information. :)

I don't use it too! But the problem is, if you install faux clock, it will activate the gamma interface by it's own if it is present in the kernel and that's enough to make my phone freeze a lots of times when waking it up =/

[One (M7) Original Android Development] Gr8man001:
Does the Kernel work with ART settings?

I have always been a big fan of your kernel. I have previously used your kernel successfully on my HTC One GPE. Recently, I switched the run time to ART, re-installed the kernel w/o any error messages. But none of the kernel features (e.g. logo 2 menu or logo to wake, etc.) works anymore. Does this have anything to do with me switching to ART? I am running stock 4.4.2 rom and the latest posted version of the kernel.

I apologize if this question has been addressed before but could not find the answer.

Edit: Never mind, someone has answered the same question in post#8591.

Thank you.

Ok mate i did exactly as u said...flashed 13.4 ..rebooted twice and used it for nealy 50 hours which is 2 days but unfortunately battery drain is the same as before..sometimes it gets worsr..i kept wifi on for 2 hours which drained 40 % of the battery..and my battery was dead after 1 hour so i had to reflash 13.3 and here are the results

Nearly lost 1 % after 2 to 3 hours

And after complete and heavy usage with heavy gaming and downloaing i got this result

With 4 hours screen on ( two hours gaming and two hours downloading and browsing with only 1 gb left from 32 gb which means i have,lots of apps and things running in background)

Thanks flar2 for the amazing and most stable and battery live kernel i have ever used 13.3 is the best for me dunno why 13.4 isnt the same for me ...also 13.3 doesnt need time to settle down ..after i flashed 13.3 i got the results i shared above so no need to wait couple of days
[One (M7) Original Android Development] petru.tomsa:
Also here the battery drain I think is worst than in 13.3. I have viper 5.7.0.

[One (M7) Original Android Development] Ktan188:
How can it be worse? 13.3 and 13.4 are literally the same kernel. 13.4 only fixes the logo2wake function or wakelock from 13.3. Like flar2 said, I think it's just a placebo effect or just a bad flash.

Hello!

I am new to this kernel and new to the HTC One GPE, but am far from new when it comes to deep customization of Android.

Anyway, I have two questions.

First, does this kernel need the stock thermald binary in /system/bin? I flashed a different kernel that deleted it, but switched back to EX11.4 and everything seems fine, but I want to know if I should put the binary back.

Also, related to flashing a different kernel, does this kernel mount the internal storage differently than stock? I flashed the stock boot.img back and booted up, but couldn't access most of my apps and couldn't install anything from Google Play. Had the same result with JoeyKernel (which flashes a full boot.img, not anykernel that merges with the stock ramdisk) and it also had the same behavior. Reinstalled EX11.4 immediately after trying both of those and everything was perfect again.

Other than those two questions, this kernel works great on stock GPE 4.4.2.

Thanks in advance, and thank you flar2 for the great kernel and the absolutely essential DT2W!

Also, forgive me if this has already been explained. I tried searching and skimming this thread, but it is pretty large.

[One (M7) Original Android Development] tiny4579:
As for thermald, I want to say it has its own implementation for thermal control, but I don't remember for sure. It may need the stock binary.

As far as the flashing kernels thing using a boot.img, there is probably a dm-crypt.ko module that didn't load so your paid apps would be inaccesible as well as not installable from Play. Did you try to install only paid apps or also free apps? It doesn't mount storage any different from stock. Reinstalling the kernel would have also reloaded the proper dm-crypt.ko for this kernel. HTC still has their kernel modular even though Google switched to no modules for their Nexus kernels.

Side note: I think you're the same ABQNM I remember from the LeanKernel thread on rootz. Welcome to the m7.
[One (M7) Original Android Development] ABQNM:
Hey Tiny! Good to hear from you. Yes it is me. Same username both places. You have an m7? Or do you just visit all the kernel threads?

Anyway, the dm-crypt.ko was probably the issue as it was paid apps. I guess I need to go find a flashable stock GPE kernel so I can reset between flashes if I want to try something new. Didn't realize that everything was still modular here. Ugh. Oh well, I guess it isn't that big of a deal. Plus EX has been good to me so far, but I still like to try new things lol.

Thanks for the response and see you around!

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] I know what most of the ondemand governor settings do, but there are a few I'm not quite so sure about. I'm trying to see how much battery life I can get from your kernel without sacrificing the performance (for the most part) bc I'm away from a charger for long periods of time during day. My current battery life is in pic below and I have not noticed any performance degradation as of yet. Would you mind, or anyone else who knows, telling me what the following settings do?

1) up_threshold_multi_core & up_threshold_any_cpu_load? I think they may have something to do with optimal_freq & sync_freq.

2) enable_boost_cpu and gboost , what is difference?

3)gboost_threshold , will raising or lowering it make it LESS sensitive?

4) input_event_min_freq and input_event_timeout ?

5) two_phase_freq?

And if you feel like it: 6) Sync_freq?

Every time I flash this kernel, it deletes my baseband, causing loss of signal, htc.dialer to force close, and the phone to reboot every couple of minutes; i have to reflash my baseband to fix it. And even after all of this, the kernel doesn't unpack unto my device, i'm still on stock ViperOne kernel I believe. My device is the sprint HTC One using ViperOne 5.7.0 ROM, and using the newest twrp recovery. I tired mounting system, and I also tried taking the part of the updater-script that wipes the cache, but it still does not work.
