[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] KTT16:
Yeah, really looking to get FK after the OTA...Franco, you did an amazing job..loved r13!

Man, the zip kept failing after trying to flash...I think i must have tried like 5x...and then I realized I installed that reboot MOD...had to slap myself around a few times after I remembered...LOL. Damn I felt so stupid. I had to flash the system and boot images... :silly:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gogol:
Just a suggestion:

I restored the kernel to stock-kernel using the FKU app.

Because I want to sideload the Android 4.4.1 update.zip

And I got error status 7 because some files were modified (bak).

So, I renamed it back all those files.

Isn't it a good idea that the FKU app will have option to RESTORE all those files which were modified / rename when we install franco kernel?

Because of this, I am now questioning the restore to stock-kernel using the FKU, as it won't get me back to the real stock (few files were left modified)?

Note that I don't use custom ROM, I only rooted because I want to use franco kernel.

Thanks :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nikolkang:
I think that is the plan for future FKU update. At least it was mentioned... An OTA prep function will eventually exist like it did on the N4.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yes, soon.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] paumlhp:
Thanks for being patient, Francisco.

Only one more question, by doing this, do I lose my sdcard data?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Just wanted to find out if you change the files

thermal-engine-hh

power.msm8974.so

with the -bak/.bak extension after flashing 4.4.1 would it cause any problems or will the throttling simply not work anymore and that's all
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tqpolo:
Ok stupid question here but does fastboot flash system.img erase my data?

Why every time I flash a new franco.Kernel release I lose root? Is it normal? How can I solve this problem?!? :confused:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] shawnaye:
When cwm asks if you want to fix root.

Shove it in cwm's face and say NO!

Either that, or flash the supersu zip.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AkumaZeto:
Love it thanks Franco!!!!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
That's 4.4 not 4.4.1 . I flashed 4.4.1 with twrp without any issues . try agn systems files must be stock Google ... U can have SU installed tho
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Januka:
ok.. i managed to get it working.. i had the volume mod installed that modifies the file system/etc/mixer_paths.xml

that was preventing the ota to install
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] maxwarp79:
But CWM didn't ask me if I want to fix root when I rebooted the phone after flashed kernel's zip file...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nealkoy:
You had the volume mod installed I guess? It's same with me. Restoring from previous xml backup solved the issue.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ÜBER™:
I've been using you're kernel for about a day or two, just to see if I've been missing out on anything. The app is the best its ever been, and kernel has treated me nicely. At least until I wanted to play some music. As soon as I start streaming Google music the device craps out and gets extremely sluggish. Stop the music, butter, play the music molasses. I've messed with every setting that could possibly alleviate the issue to no avail. Its like its load is so great it choked the device, its odd.

Guess I'll have to jump back to faux, no such issue there and I experienced better battery life ( averaged 30+ mins per 10%, now I'm at about 22mins per 10%). But that's just been my experience.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Why would you use cwm anyways. Try using twrp and see if the error persists.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nickmv:
Anyone know what changes "power.msm8974.so"

I could never get the 4.4.1 OTA to take, because that file was modded. Couldnt ever figure out what was the culprit.

I had flashed, over the life of the orig stock ROM:

1. fauxkernel

2. francokernel

3. camera mod

4. volume boost

5. Xposed + GravityBox

I got all 5 of those things uninstalled (some were no longer running or in place anyways), but power.msm8974.so was still modded.

Anyhoo, I'm up and running now, since I accidentally deleted my sdcard, or should I say, "userdata". F@&k Google for naming sd data userdata, essentially confusing me into thinking I was erasing /data
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] kindrich:
So after successfully installing the OTA to 4.4.1 (of course after flashing the 4.4 stock to clear out all the mods), I immediately noticed that the loudspeaker got MUCH louder -- you can't miss it.

Then I flashed R17 and the loudspeaker reverts back to the level of loudness on 4.4.

I know 4.4.1 just came out today so bugs when using kernel from 4.4 are expected. Just to want to let you know :D!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] trailblazerz11:
Franco kernel renames it to *.bak to disable it
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dimebagdan65:
What is this 4.4.1 talk? Just came out today? Ummm, I know it was confirmed that it's coming but the factory images page at Google Developers still lists 4.4 as the latest. Let's not jump the gun here folks... For those wondering about how to update when rooted it's really simple. From fastboot just flash boot.img and system.img, boot to recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, flash supersu (either from a zip or TWRP asks if you want to flash it if you try to reboot and aren't rooted) and then reboot system. Takes approx five minutes. Naturally I'd the update includes a new bootloader, flash that first, just make sure you fastboot reboot-bootloader after that step before flashing boot and system images. After that it's just a matter of waiting for Franco to update.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Clearly why he strongly advised that we use stock kernel until kernel sources are out and he can make a new version for 4.4.1

You can't record videos either if you use r17
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] clamitas:
I need some help!

I am trying to update to 4.4.1 but get error "unexpected content in system/bin/app_process".

I have flashed the stock kernel coming from franco's.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Easiest way to update is to flash stock image with a toolkit for noobs, don't delete userdata when it prompts

Flash TWRP and flash the OTA zip and voila
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dimebagdan65:
Please, if you're a newb, DO NOT USE TOOLKITS! The purpose of XDA is learning and sharing... You don't learn ANYTHING using toolkits. Only thing I recommend them for is installing the drivers/ADB/fastboot... After that, do yourself a favor and take five minutes to learn to do things the RIGHT way... It's not like we're talking about a Sense/Touchwiz/Motoblur device here, this IS a Nexus forum, am I right?

Newb - someone new with an interest in learning so they can better help themselves and the community...

Noob - a piece of human waste that can walk, talk and feed itself with no interest in anything but having the latest toys and tweaks that they don't even begin to understand.

In summation, newbs can become assets to the community with time and guidance; noobs will only ever be a drain on the collective spirit, always asking for but never able to give help...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jmartino5920:
What are you talking about bro?

I flashed 4.4.1 today just fine. No gun jumping here good sir. Binaries and images are due out next week per Google.

For now let's all enjoy 4.4.1 if one can manage to properly flash it.

Your little rant is slightly misguided and doesn't make all that much sense grammatically. I'm not the grammar police but if you are going to issue a PSA about people jumping the gun, please speak clearly.

Now Franco, get back to work on that kernel! Lololololol!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] cmstlist:
I am looking for a mod to REDUCE call volume over a wired headset. On 4.4 the call volume was too loud on the lowest setting with all the earbuds I've tried, and on 4.4.1 stock it has been boosted to deafening.

Would Franco kernel be capable of this, or if not is that a feature that could be added? Or can anyone here suggest a different mod (kernel or otherwise) to achieve a call volume reduction?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dimebagdan65:
Yeah, I stand corrected. The 4.4.1 update is rolling out via OTA, just the factory image isn't released yet. Still though, I'll wait for it. Hopefully by the time the system image is available Franco's 4.4.1 will already be done ?

I tried to go back to stock following the franco's steps, changing the file names and then fastboot flashing boot.img but when I tried to install OTA.zip it said there were some errors blablabla, so flashed system.img as well and then everything went fine.

Thanks guys.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tylerdurden83:
That's exactly why I asked why you chose to have 2 cpus on all the time tbh.

I wasn't questioning that the dumb stock governor that turns on the second core every time you so much as caress the phone is a stupid idea and a waste of power, therefore definitely something that could be handled differently.

I was more interested, for my personal curiosity, nothing else, if that second core couldn't be left idling in most of those cases instead.

For example, I definitely dont need two cores to have a whatsapp chit-chat or to stream music to my bluetooth handset. My galaxy s2 with a core off could perform both those tasks without any lag whatsoever. Even more, if the exynos 4 could do it at 1.2 ghz, I'm sure that a krait 400 core can do it at less, or at worst at around that same frequency.

So, having agreed that the stock handling of the second core on/off is poo, do you really think that a single core running at (eventually) slightly higher frequencies is still more efficient than two cores doing almost nothing?

Once again Im only asking for thirst of knowledge reasons, so people please dont reply "this is how he did it, either take it or pick another kernel".
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Marck527:
Probably mentioned already but I flashed bigxies 4.4.1 stock and upon rebooting (after auto flash of r17) it hangs on Google logo. Had to flash the rom again to get it too boot back up.

What you flashed is just a patch, not the whole boot.img, thus the .p ending :)

Lol... Were you just waiting to say that?! :p

Yes, thanks for the tip. I'm running 4.4.1 now and waiting for a new supported kernel. :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] LaboDJ:
Hi Franco,

I tried different compression methods for kernel (default is xz), lzo would be better choice (faster decompression time than xz, slower than lz4).

The kernel size obviously increased to 10.3M.

I found that FKU kernel backup/restore is not truly generic, I flash my 10.3M kernel via fastboot, but when I back it up with FKU it gives me a 8192KB image that is not correct, flashify instead works as expected.

I think it would be better to make backup interface truly generic, backing up not a block of 8192k but instead the real kernel size.

EDIT: lz4 would be even better, see this LG pdf: http://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/lcjpcojp13_klee.pdf
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mag01:
Exactly. I found the same last night and wanted to ask about it once Franco appears here. However as you already wrote about it I can only comfirm it. :laugh:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nikolkang:
Never experienced anything like this and I stream Google play music daily on FK.

Edit: If your switching between faux and FK and having issues.. try uninstalling faux's app or disabling when running FK. Some users reported issues while faux's app was installed but not sure. Also.. If I were you I would reflash system.img before changing over because I know that faux makes his own thermal driver and such like franco among other things. Definitely wouldn't hurt to start with a fresh system.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pinoymutt:
I'm not sure of the exact reasoning, but from what I remember it's more of a matter of CM not playing nice with other kernels, so devs have to put in extra effort to make things work on CM. Some others that are better versed on CM may be able to explain better.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] LaboDJ:
it's a kernel + ramdisk thing, Franco uses his own ramdisk to make FKU work
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Nah. There's more to this than it might look. The Galaxy S2 for starters is a 800x480 display device, the Nexus 5 is a Full HD beast, its like the double of the pixels, so its much harder on the hardware side. But even then having 2 cores always online ensures that the device can make use of two cores one for real-time work, and another for other background stuff it needs to care about. I'd rather have them always online and ready than the device going "ups, theres some high load coming, I cannot handle everything, either I go to max freq and waste a bunch of energy or I online another core to offload the load". And in terms of multi-tasking its pretty nice to have a second core ready to use because the Kernel is always migrating tasks around so that helps instead of waiting for the core to come up. That's pretty much it without going into deep details.

Yeah I realized that too yesterday, I'm gonna work on it. Having a bigger image is something I do not fancy, I'd rather have it boot 1-2 seconds slower than having users download bigger images, some of them with poor internet connection or limited bandwidth.

We'll see what happens.

Oh nice Kernel sources are up :) nice surprise. Not that many changes though, was hoping for more. They are nice though, couple important GPU patches, vibration improvements, a patch to improve speaker quality through low latency path, a bunch of display driver patches, those Wi-Fi patches I had merged before to decrease consumption, some camera patches, cryptography patches...

I'd highly recommend you ditch the idea of running CM, and install Xposed Framework and GravityBox.

With that, you can achieve pretty much everything CM touts (minus the mini notification toggles, but there's other ways to get that), plus SO much more. And, you know, you can run franco kernel.
