This phone charges really fast there's nothing wrong , fastcharge is for charging on USB it makes the phone think its connected to AC so it " fast charge" u can leave it on but it needs to be off to b seen by a PC . it doesn't do anything if your not plugged into USB
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bikeryder007:
I bet you had the performance governor on didn't you? It keeps your phone at 2.2

Reflashing the kernel would have put it back on interactive and therefore working properly.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] XtraWho:
That's what I was looking for, good to know phone charges fast, my phones for the most part charges through USB connected to my lappy (always on a site digging through threads), once I started posting in this thread I checked to see if I could access my N5 storage via lappy, I could.

I will say this is the fastest charging phone I have ever owned.

Good stuff
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bilago:
I didn't touch the governer from what ever the default is on r20. Steps I took :

Added CM nightly.zip to flash queue

Added Franco r20 zip to flash queue

Flashed in TWRP

Booted into OS

Changed the default frequency in FKU - not showing change in FKU

Went to Kernel settings - Page will not scroll/interact

Cleared FKU data/cache

Cannot change frequency, Kernel Settings page is now working

Reflashed r20 using auto flash in FKU - everything working properly.

I do see people have issues and are fixed with a simple reboot, since reflashing causes the device to reboot, maybe it was the reboot not the reflash that fixed the issue.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jmartino5920:
Testing r21test. Just flashed it with a full charge, on 4.4.2 stock, reset FKU just because, and rebooted again before taking the phone off the charger. Thanks in advance Franco!

Yes.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
After 36 hours and a couple charge cycles on t21 I gotta say, battery has greatly improved. I'm getting much better life out of my device with it than I was with r20
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
That patch thing makes the screen so low its crazy! Nice one including that. Honestly I reckon if someone were to make their phone keep the screen on with air plane mode no syncs etc with lowest screen brightness some 8-9 sot could be seen, perhaps more
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] manny05:
Question. How can I flash the boot 21? Can I just place it inside the r20 zip file and replace the one that's in there and just flash?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Fast boot, flashify, fku restore
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] manny05:
Just to clarify. Flashify is the app in the play store? Just used that to flash the file?

I just got the nexus 5. Came from the s4. So I've never used this kernel before. So used to using ktoonsez lol
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Yes flashify the app in the store, Christian the app dev and Franco are good buddies in the real world. I'm sure you will find this phone much easier to mod than an s4. This kernel is in a very good shape already, enjoy your time here :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] manny05:
Thanks bro. This phone is amazing.

And I just flashed it. So simple. Already noticing an improvement. Glad to be here.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Indeed it is, you may think the battery is small at only 2300mah but you will be surprised to see just how far it goes when you have such efficient set up as this kernel. If you feel really adventurous then you could try this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2546120 but discuss your findings there as its off topic to here. Just to confirm even though it states in the OP its fine on n5 and n7 2013 I'm using it on both
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] crash_194:
Might be a totally daft question all, but this is applicable to auto brightness as well? It is definitely a much needed addition though Franco so good call. Screen is incredibly bright by default on the nexus 5.

Is it normal that I can't flash trough flashify the boot.img?

Just got the device and flashed something via ADB for the first time ever...

Just got the test 21. People that are reporting great battery life, are you just leaving stock kernel settings?

I'm a noob!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Langduscher:
Yes, flash & forget, use default settings & enjoy :good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
It would be used if your using auto brightness. It changes the level of back light to the screen to a much lower level. You would need to be in a dark room for it to go to min brightness. Just as a tip you will find it slightly better on battery using manual settings as some sensor won't be constantly scanning the light around you. The screen shot below shows what I normally use when inside.

Hey, got my nexus 5 after using iphone 5s, so glad to have nexus 5 pure android.

i am stock with root, where i can get r21? after flash i need to config something or just flash and use regular?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
You want this one (darker grey file explorer). I tend to use root explorer if I'm navigating my way round stuff. Or use fku to restore test builds which is even simpler

Franco, is adding OTG support necessary on the kernel level? When using Purity and r20 it does not work, it does work on the stock kernel though.

Here is the commit https://github.com/chenxiaolong/CM_...mmit/fa1a1e0c34ae858cd53465165e3930342cfcd05f
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] enfxuevsi:
OTG works fine? Requires stickmount or something similar for mounting storage devices.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mbh87:
Thats the whole point of that commit, it doesn't require stickmount. You plug it in and it works.

Ah I see, should've read it, my apologies :3.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] giel123:
test 21 is great indeed! Only thing I noticed was that the phone gets much warmer when playing a game (real racing 3) then on r20.

Thanks Franco!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Im paid user for some time now although I don't understand your question fully. No flashing restrictions to me within the app if that's what you mean
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mbh87:
It works fine on stock and elemental, that's why I was asking if something else had to be added on the kernel side as well.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Welcome. Just flash and forget.

Yes I merged.

I'll try those ramdisk changes, thanks for the link.

Weird. Are you undervolting or something?

Because now when the governor detects that its been using higher frequencies for some consecutive time it tends to think we're in need of higher frequencies and doesn't ramp down so easily. Don't worry about the temperature, the device will be throttled if it gets too hot, just play and have fun.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Strange I was just playing deer hunter and was thinking 21 was cooler than 20 . I've actually been running 20 test I didn't like 20 ( can't tell u y cause I don't no :p ) but I'm liking 21 . battery , heat , and speed have been better so far here .

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Enddo:
I am new to Franco Kernel and was curious why there was not a 'powersave' governer option. Is this not included in the kernel, or am I not configuring it right to enable said option?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] XtraWho:
No need for it, flash it and forget it.

Kernel need no tweaking at all.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
You don't need it. The best settings are generally fku defaults, if something better gets found and can be proved with proper evidence it might get changed. If your new just run defaults until you learn more
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
You can mimic "power save" with setting min/max at 300 MHz.

Also, Franco, any plans to update the galaxy nexus kernel to support CM 11? My moms phone can use some Franco lovin.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaggyjags:
Fúck! Had another app setting the on boot settings, sorry.

Have you changed the charging animation while phone off, by the way? It's different and smaller.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Pretoriano80:
Well, in this case either the patch doesn't work or the issue is caused by something else. Tested at least 4 times here, still reboots.

Anyway thx again for your work & feedback.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jmartino5920:
Just my two cents here but I don't want USB OTG enabled unless I'm using a root app to control it. Call me complicated but I like the idea of going through the process of using stickmount. I like manual processes.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Just as a thing I'd like to ask, Franco these bionic patches and dalvik optimisations http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2546120 and such, what would your opinion be as to include them to 'system' changes made. I know your opinion to ART but optimised Qualcomm things like these are really nice and running very well for me. Its like my screen is telepathic, so fast its almost like it knows what I'm about to do (read VW and Audi group double clutch http://cars.about.com/od/thingsyouneedtoknow/a/ag_howDSGworks.htm )

The things I cover in my FAQ are fairly extensive and I believe I explain well enough for users how to return to stock and provide all the links to android SDK and Google factory image page as to be able to fastboot system.IMG and boot.IMG and maybe your future 'prepare for OTA' could over write these thing with a (suggested auto) reboot after. I know its more rom based than kernel but its effects are impossible to deny its usefulness while staying compatale with AOSP

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Can u share witch one u installed ? I installed the zip that I thought everyone was using but my device became choppy after , recents button had major lag also . ( this is after a full full wipe . )
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PhantomGamers:
It's ENTIRELY rom based lol
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Well I don't know what you do wrong there but I noticed the difference straight away and have been fine for about 22 hours up time. I flashed the newest build for bionic and dalvik. The one with KOT as build name. Works fine on kot H even though labeled as E. Running real nice on n7 and n5

---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:36 PM ----------

Yeah but still, what's the harm in including Quallcom optimised stuff when it runs fine (very well) on aosp / stock roms?

Edit that

Also just to add to this, Franco has added a few CAF patches to this kernel while retaining compatibility
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Ya that's the thing there are more than one and the files inside the zips are different so I wouldn't doubt I installed some bull.... If u could share a link it would be much appreciated :D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Fluidification:
Is anyone else having a lockscreen animation issue? Generally it's supposed to be smooth with a transition. With this kernel on both stock 4.4.2 and cm11 latest nightly, the screen unlock transition works fine for the first few unlocks, then there is no animation, and it skips the animation and just unlocks extremely fast. Causing the screen to have a little brightness flicker.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PhantomGamers:
It's proprietary... we don't know what changes are in them so why should franco include them without giving the users an option to opt out?

IMO Just let people flash it if they really want to...

Currently franco kernel only "modifies" (read: renames) system files that interfere with the kernel, and I think this is a good policy to keep.

Just my 2 cents though.

(Additionally there might be some legal issues with including these files, but that's more of a technicality and I don't know the specifics)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
I'm afraid I can't be there to hold your hand while you flash but the files for 4.4 are quite clearly labeled. There's a revert quite clearly labeled. In case you feel you need for extra safety there's this thing in recovery you can do to back up your entire phone and you can even restore it if **** goes tits up. To the point it works on n5 and newer n7 as they are Quallcom optimised files and at least it might stop, my galaxy s XXX out benches n5. Real users will feel the snappiness

---------- Post added at 10:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 PM ----------

Fair point and taken on board, let's allow Franco to mull it over and make a decision :)

Just about this part, I haven't read about Quallcom taking CM to court or any other party over these files because they might not be a c***tish as apple ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
That ain't going to happen, I cannot force users to to install stuff that they might not want. Besides its proprietary binaries, legally I cannot re-distribute them. If others do it then its on their own responsibility, I cannot and I won't play that dangerous game.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Hold my hand ? What's wrong with u ? There are a bunch of those patches floating around made by a few different people I was wondering witch one u used, I didn't think it was going to be so hard for u to understand there compadre . your question for Franco makes no sense anyways since the patch has nothing to do with kernel . u have a great day. Freaking kids .... O_o
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] EvanA:
Franco won't be adding any of this. It is a kernel. Entirely source built.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Thanks for the clear answer and I respect that, understood :)

I'm not a kid, I'm too close to 30 than I'd like lol Any whoz, the files I was referring to I linked in my post regarding the matter which is now closed.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DoesntPostAThing:
I'd have to say, this is one of the least stressful kernels to use. Flash and forget really works well for once. Especially in the last week of school when all sorts of crap is due for me I'm happy to just flash the latest version and work on other stuff assured that my phone is smooth as butter without the need to go through each and every setting hoping for the best. Of course, if I have time I'll be sure to see if there's any room for improvement, but for now I'm perfectly happy with stock settings.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
That's what I work for, flash and forget, best possible user experience from my point of view :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
From where I'm standing and my own point of veiw your doing a grand job, the only things I change from your defaults are voltage and vibrator amp (kernal side, you can see I flashed those dalvik and bionic optimisations). Everything else works great and if you were to be successful at your application to Google I'd miss you here but it would also mean you achieve your long term goal so I wish you well and we all know you can do better things than mpdecision and future nexus would indeed be improved just missing the kerenl label Fransisco@ubuntu

Hopefully Franco, gets his job at Google. How cool would it be that they use your theories and code to make the next nexus the best overall phone? Smooth lag free games yet battery friendly. :D

Ever since the 4.4.2. update my battery life went to about 3.5h SOT

....so I reverted to stock ROM and running xposed and Franco and now I'm at 59% battery left with only 7h45min off the charger and 1h28 SOT (nothing heavy, tapatalk, whatsapp, g+)

Use to happen to me before when I was a crack flasher. What helped was doing a complete wipe, including the internal storage. And starting over. :) backup important files to your comp and try it out.

I haven't used your kernel for a very long time. I had bought the app back in the days of the galaxy nexus and enjoyed your kernel and exceptional work. Now coming back with my Nexus 5 to your application I just have to say bravo you have made a seriously slick, functional and easy to use program to facilitate using your famous kernels with ease.

I just flashed v20 and am excited to see the improvements you have been working on for us!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DanP47:
Had something weird happen last night. I was listening to radio using TuneIn while using the xda premium app and browsing the web using Dolphin, when the message 'FKU has been granted superuser permissions...' appeared. After this, the phone became very sluggish and the radio started skipping. The superuser message also kept reappearing every 10 seconds or so. I then tried to reboot the phone, but it wouldn't get past the screen with the word Google and the lock and would keep looping. Then I booted into recovery and chose reboot system from there. It would get to the boot animation, but then restart again.

I ended up having to wipe the phone from recovery and reflash the ROM. I was running Cataclysm Dec 12 with r20. The only setting I had changed in FKU was adding a per-app mode for Tapped Out, but I was not using the app at the time.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sNoxious:
Can anyone check this kmsg for me? This happens after I do a clean flash of my preferred Rom and letting it sit after a reboot. I'm not sure if it's Kernel related or Rom since I have really no idea what this is. And oh, it goes away after I clear FKU's app data. Weird I know, but 3 times it happened over the course of the month of flashing (clean flash) updates of my Rom and that's the way it has been resolved.
