Is TCP congestion Algorithm supposed to be on "Not Set"? Or is this because the franco app needs to be updated for N5?

---------- Post added at 01:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 PM ----------

I have also had best battery life with a very slight under clock and mostly everything else default to what franco sets on his kernels.

Please, Franco you don't have to reply to this, but can someone show me a good tutorial on how to flash his kernel with this boot img method (on a mac)?

Already unlocked+rooted my device, but now kinda scratching my head.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] my2sense:
I'm using the same ROM to upgrade to 4.4.1 and had no issues flashing r19 thru TWRP. I did a dirty flash of his ROM so not sure if that's why it's working. I don't think it's kernel related since it works for me.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] wund3rground:
Xposed is not ART compatible, at least I don't think it is.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] riDDimann:
Sideloading 4.4.1 went well, r19 running fine so far. Camera really is a lot faster now, liking it even more now.

I honestly can't blame them. Every time I look away this thread has another 20 pages filled with people asking/whining about colors etc. Search being utterly useless on XDA doesn't help.

But you can still point Google to a specifig page like so: https://www.google.com/search?q=nexus+5+franco+kernel+site:http://xdaforums.com

Edit: There were another 4 posts while I was writing this... how Franco can keep up with this is beyond me. Does he have people reading all his threads?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sirbanger:
Hey all, just curious what the little bookmark icon means beside some of the items in the franco kernel updater app? Is it the new way to set on boot?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Dolphin Trainer:
Do you have Stickmount installed?

I had this exact scenario... I am 95% sure Stickmount is the culprit. It also occurs on the stock kernel, because I noticed it when I went back to stock 4.4.1 waiting for Franco's update.

So.. try uninstalling stickmount and see how you go. Send me a message if that fixes it... because I'm looking into it and want to send feedback to that dev if it actually is stickmount causing it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Boris Spektor:
Yes :)

Also, what kind of CPU clock speeds/Voltages do you guys use? I wasn't sure if changing it from Franco's stock settings would do much since they seem great for me.

---------- Post added at 11:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:00 AM ----------

Why? The r197 release is working rock solid with Nexus 4 and 4.4.1. Franco always adds to the discussion everywhere, but there is no pressing need for him to look into something.

This is interesting that I read this. I use to run stickmount on 4.4, but never reinstalled it yet on 4.4.1. This response got me to thinking I would try this belief. I installed/restored stickmount on my 4.4.1 with r19, and sure enough after a minute my phone rebooted.

This has proven that its a stickmount dev issue. Lets get ahold of the dev to fix this.

Thank you for bringing this up!! Oh and sorry for garbaging up the franco thread with this crap.

Cool. Now go ask questions over there instead of polluting here.

On a related note, R19 still running problem free for me. I'm curious to see if Google made any changes to the touch screen drivers because it seems far more sensitive and accurate. Could be placebo, who knows.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Its ok, my wish is that everyone would ignore stupid posts instead of replying, like I do most of the time.

[MENTION=702102]LaboDJ[/MENTION]

Yes, I used a new class to detect the correct kernel size instead of backing up a hardcoded block size. Mr. cgollner sent me the class he uses to parse the blocks on his flashify, and it works great :)

even with the r19 I have lag in games :(
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IAreKyleW00t:
Yeah, that will work fine. It's what I used to use before switching to FKU a while back.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] javacody:
Franco, for the most part, r19 is working extremely well.

I've noticed that with Google Play Music however, that if I'm downloading music and playing music at the same time while the screen is off, it does as others have pointed out, stutter. In fact, sometimes I can't even turn my screen back on and the phone has restarted a few times while I've been trying to turn the screen on while music is playing and downloading.

I thought it was because I was underclocking (1574 and using per app modes for a boost when needed). So I went to per app modes to set my power profile for Play Music, but it's not in the list.

Even when I set max clock to 2265, I still get the issue. I also tried setting the governor to performance and still have the stuttering. I also get the issue of not being able to turn the screen on while music is playing and downloading at the same time.

Guess when it doesn't happen? When I'm on 3G. Even when my max cpu speed is 1574.

It's got to be the WiFi driver. Can you please take a look? I'd be happy to buy you some Christmas music to test with.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Testraindrop:
Are you on stock?

As for me on Omni it works fine, no stuttering, screen comes on directly.

But if the bold part is true, then you have some serious issue, 4 cores + 2.3Ghz at 100% should be enough to handle music. Must be something else in your case.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] javacody:
Did you miss the part about it NOT happening when I'm connected to 3G?

Yes, I'm on stock.

It has to be WiFi drivers.

You tested while music is downloading at the same time it is playing?

---------- Post added at 12:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 PM ----------

Interesting. I fixed it.

Tried one poster's suggestion of forgetting the network and readding it.

Works flawlessly now.

There must be something broken in the settings for 4.4 WiFi that is fixed in 4.4.1.

Never mind. ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mag01:
[MENTION=1994096]javacody[/MENTION] 1. flash the stock kernel back and make comparison

2. you also mentioned undesired restarts - provide contents of /proc/last_kmsg after such restart
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
That's weird as fúck. Wi-Fi drivers are the same here as on stock 4.4.1 :( Glad you fixed it by forgetting the network.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IAreKyleW00t:
[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] Do you have any recommended kernel settings for good performance and battery life? I wasn't sure if keeping it at stock values is best. Right now I was going to do this...

Max: 1.5GHz (Maybe 1.3Ghz)

Min: 300MHz

Voltage: -75mV (Since I've been perfectly stable with that)

hispeed_freq: 1267000 (?)

input_boost_freq: 1036000

Not really sure if this is best or not, but if you (or anyone else) has suggestions, I'd love to hear it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
With those settings you'll have great battery life for sure, but you won't be able to achieve the same performance that you would otherwise. Don't go below 1,5GHz max or you'll start noticing some lag due to lower DDR frequency.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IAreKyleW00t:
Awesome, thanks! I'm a little more into battery life than I am in performance - The N5 is already a powerhouse of a phone, so I figured I'd cut back a little on what I don't need and get some more juice out of it.

Also, in regards to the latest FKU update (beta i believe; the one that doesn't require the long press anymore). When changing a setting that requires you to type something in, it won't update what is shown until you tap on the setting again. Not a big issue, but just thought I would let you know. Didn't happen before the update.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
