Running stable r33 with -75 global UV, going to try now without any UV because sometimes games would mess up, anyone has any type of report in battery gain with / without UV? as I use per-app modes in most high cpu usage apps heating should not be a problem at all but still, will run a couple of reports with -25 / -50 mv.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drms12:
About that Ridge Racer game, I just woke up and read your comments,

And the game work flawlessly , super smooth.

I found that until you save the game once the game lag, And the menu lag also.

But after that you save the game, exit & enter again, It smooth. Even with 320mhz GPU speed.

Thanks

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Piereligio:
First u should download v5.5,and not v5 (in my signature there's the link to my profiles). Anyway u buy full fku and enable beta testing, then u download the file of the profile, and then u cut it from /sdcard/downloads/ and paste it to /sdcard/franco.kernel_updater/color_profiles, to finally go in fku's screen calibration tab, and then load the profile. U should pick the option to set it at startup.

Audio stutters/skipping from headphones is still happening on r34 for me when playing mp3s from Google Play Music. Never happened on r32. Started happening on r33 for me.

However, I did what was suggested by another user a while back and reduced the headphone volume from max to 2-3 notches down. This seems to reduce/eliminate the issue for me consistently. I also found that the skipping tends to happen more when there is a lot of "noise" in the song vs when there isn't.

Currently on Cataclysm + stock franco settings.

I also did modify the mixer_paths.xml file directly for headphone volume from "15" to "20" as detailed here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47593115&postcount=2

Is it possible that something that had to do with headphone gain or volume was modified starting in r33 that caused this skipping to happen @ louder headphone volumes?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GavinAshford:
[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] I am experiencing the same issue [MENTION=3966873]Rhodesfreak[/MENTION] reported a few pages back.

My phone (screen?) refuses to wake up with power button and the only way to load is to force a reboot with keeping the power button held down for 8 seconds. I believe the phone is awake, and it's just the screen that isn't turning on.

I've had this twice in the last two days now and both times have been first thing on the morning after charging via the wireless charger.

I did undervolt and I've been running r33 since release (15th Feb?) but yesterday was the first time this issue happened with that release. Yesterday I flashed the test r34 and had the same issue this morning too, again undervolted. I've now removed the undervolt and will monitor over the next few days.

I have taken syslogs from both previous days however they don't appear to show anything obvious to me - I'm guessing last_kmsg is the one most helpful in this situation? However the last line just shows "Boot info: Last boot reason: reboot_by_key" - I've attached the one from today (r34) if that's at all useful?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nightranger73:
About the redraws

I just want you to make a test about killed apps and launcher redraws.

Under developers options, in settings, the latest options are about the limit of background process. Usually it's set to standard which means 2 background process only in kk. Would you please try to set it to 4 (maximum allowed) to see if it makes any changes with killed app and launcher redraws?

Edit: damn.. i think it's time to update my signature.. last time I updated was 2 phones and a tablet ago
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] 5tef:
it's a bad new :( but it's really recent update right ? last week, i don't saw this red message on the first post.

Franco kernel was the best kernel...

so maybe i will not use CM anymore then... in search of another good ROM.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nightranger73:
CM never liked custom kernel and furthermore using caf could easily break things so they had to revert back or wait for newer update.

I remember on the n7100 where the display driver used to have all sort of glitches so they switched every week thus breaking custom kernel compatibility and it was a pita both for user and dev as those updating the rom needed to wait for the kernel-dev to update and newer custom kernel didn't worked for those not updating their firmware daily.

So, at the end, if you want to try newer driver (but this doesn't always mean better) you should go with CM and forget franco, but if you want a stable and custom kernel with plenty of options you should stay away from CM.

i remember CM M2 + franco r32 association was awesome... so great battery life ( 2 days for me )... and i had the feeling CM is even more fast and fluid... gosh, i need change that.

what ROM do u suggest me then ? ( i dont play a lot with my nexus 5 ).
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jlevy73:
My suggestion is to try either Trinity or Rastakat. But those two are my personal preferences. There are a lot of great Rom's to chose from. Try a couple out and see which one works best for you.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] usaff22:
I went to London on Friday, and got this same issue. The phone refused to wake from sleep with the power button, and became very slow and hot. After holding the button for a few seconds, the screen turned on, whereas other times, I had to force a reboot. I eventually went back to r32.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] harshalkatakia:
Awesome job with r34 [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION]! RAM is much better. Earlier 800MB- 1GB of RAM was being used up, now it's just 550MB- 600MB. Can't comment much on the battery since I haven't used it for a long time, but everything else seems to be great!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akash3656:
Quoted from morfic: "The only thing we wipe is our buts"

Well thing is flashing a kernel doesn't require a wipe for cache/dalvik cache.

Even when updating ROMs I don't wipe anything, all works good as the updated ROM will automatically wipe dalvik and rebuild it on the first boot.

It's been suggested that if you're unfamiliar with the process you should hold out and wait for the zip file......but I'm from the school of thought that says if you don't try you'll never know.

Suggestion: Manual core control

By using the apps Usemon and FPS meter to get an overlay of active cores, per core frequency and frame rate, I did a few tests on some games (Re-Volt and NOVA 3) and observed:

All four cores were running constantly, most often only at 960 MHz because of thermal limitations. However, the point is: all four cores were online.

By changing the hotplug settings I was able to more or less keep two cores deactivated all the time.

The results:

Less active cores lead to lower CPU temperature at a negligible change in the frame rate.

Thus my conclusion:

Four cores are not need to run most games, but they get online and cause increased temp and power consumption.

So my suggestion:

It would be great if you add an option in the Pro-App Modi to select an upper level on how many cores can get used.

As far as I understood correctly, you somehow locked the minimum active cores to two. I wasn't able to test it, but I doubt that two cores are required for some games either. So maybe even make it possible to only use a single core in specific apps.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ChazzMatt:
I use Flashify. Built by one of Franco's good friends.

But FKU also lets you flash img files. Back in beta it didn't, so I got in the habit of using Flashify.

Just to be fair, n7100 issue along with the rest of exynos line was not cm's fault but sammy's fault who didn't keep the promise to provide the proper source and the reference. They had to try different mali drivers/blobs as available to try to sort this out, which eventually made exynos maintainers give up. Of course, cm doesn't like others' kernel because they wanted to remove the variable but that is a different story.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JeyLo:
Flashed r34 beta img over r33 today from FKU via backup and restore function, all worked perfectly, no glitches, for me this is the best kernel now. Great performance boost over r33 very smooth and qiuck, battery as i saw maybe the same as on r33. Underclocked+UV(-25) all the time to 883 Mhz(MAX), great battery and increase in free RAM.

As i saw thermal throttle in this kernel increased to 70C, in r33 was 60C. Nevertheless all fine. Thank's FRANKO, great work!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RussianBear:
Nope. Mine did this once on r33, and my voltage is stock.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Dungeon47:
Seriously great standby time on 34.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] UpSpin:
To foster my assumption and the suggestion, I ran Antutu benchmark.

One time with the default hotplug settings, the other time with modified ones which makes core 3 and 4 very unlikely to go online. (load_threshold = 100, high_load_counter = 19).

Both times each in a cool state (not freezing, 15 C environment and starting with a cool device) and in a normal 'medium' state (battery temp 40 C, environment 25 C).

Of course, in the cold state the device barely overheats, only slight thermal throttling occurs, and thus I get great benchmark result. Of course, using 4 cores gives slightly better results than 2.

In the more likely occuring normal state, the benchmark results are much lower. While they are similar, especially the 3D performance is noticably worse compared to using only 2 cores.

Finally:

A quadcore might be great to handle casual calculation bursts, to reduce lag and allow several apps do different stuff at the same time without inerrupting the UI.

In longer high load situations however, the excessive heat caused by all 4 cores causes an overall drop in performance, resulting in worse performance compared to less active cores at a lower temp.

Thus it might be worth a consideration to add an option which, instead of reducing the frequency, first scales back the number of active cores in the case of overheating. And only if two, or maybe even a single core is left running and it still overheats, then the frequency gets reduced additionaly.

Additionaly the sad part of the story is that the Snapdragon 800 is total overkill for a smartphone and overheats quickly. While the short running benchmark results look impressive, one never get this performance in a gaming scenario because of the too high power consumption if all four cores are active over a longer period.

Still the same headphones issue with r 34 aswell. This is such a perfect kernel, just the headphone issue.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] G8D:
Can anyone explain this? It's not a new issue but it's been ignored or unexplained since I reported it.

Currently I'm set to default values and have per-app modes disabled in the app. I have cleared the apps data several times but it doesn't solve anything. It's been happening since at least r32.

Basically when I open certain apps the max freq changes itself. For example when I open Tapped Out it drops to 960, when I open Candy Crush it drops to 1.7ghz, Dead Trigger 2 to 1.2ghz. It's really impacting my used of both FKU and my phone and I have no idea why it could be happening.

Just had the black screen of death once when the screen only woke up after i pressed power several times.

Regarding the reboot . I was surfing tapatalk .

UV -50 across the board

(On r32 -75 was stable enough but since 33 -75 causes reboots so I am on -50 since then)
