Heard this is the best kernel. Can anyone let me know settings and values that I need to configure for excellent battery life (Long SOT). Hope I should configure in KernelSettings app.

Thank you:good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Just flashing it is already a big help. You can use Power Saving performance profile, it helps a bunch.

I just received an E-mail from Google regarding the refund. They said that a refund isn't possible and that I should contact the app developer in order to fix the issue... :-/

Can use r105 for 7.1.2r5 ?...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] maksimus0021:
I installed on Fake Nexus 7.1.2, it works well. :)

Regards.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
God damnit. E-mail me please with the order number.

Yes. There's directory for 7.1.2 so duh!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Hiyaslalabs:
I will try to install this on purenexus. But first I don't have root is it okay? I've read allot on other kernels that needs f2s convertion etc. Thanks Devvv
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JohnJae76:
Hello, Question, I'm running the latest Pure Nexus Rom 7.1.1 and I'm currently using the latest ElementalX Kernel but I'm not getting good battery life. I'm wanting to try your Franco Kernel. Is it possible to flash your Kernel over the ElementalX or how does that work switching from one custom Kernel to another? Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NJ5499:
Dirty flash your ROM first n then flash francokernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JohnJae76:
Dirty flash? Ok I think that means to reflash the Rom I currently using and the flash Franco Kernel.?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] shri_chanakya:
Yes
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] derekz2:
Please, help me

I have rom Pure Nexus 7.1.1 (actually no root).

1)I must delete cache after installing?

2)I need root?

3) I no power off phone during night; If I automatically active airplane mode during night I save battery? (I ask this because I must root only for make this function)

.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JohnJae76:
Thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Can't believe I'm still answering questions about cache wipings, and root ~4 years later with ~7,5M views and ~40k replies. Groundhog day or something.

1 - no

2 - no

3 - you can do whatever, it's your phone your choice

Pushed 106, small maintenance release.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tom0769:
I have a little problem with one of my n5 with charging.

Tried several roms, kernels and firmware versions.

The device charges normally but after unplugging usb plug, it does not recognize this and still shows that it's charging.

One workaround is not to pull the usb cable out of the device but unplug the charger from mains.

I suspect the bq24192 to be faulty (may be wrong register value).

Is it possible to control the bq24192 with this kernel?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Stopa:
Did enyone try this kernel on MIUI8 for our Nexus??
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Scrapyard Loot:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Re-uploaded. I had it fixed on my local build but forgot to re-compile & upload it correctly.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] roshan2989:
guys just want to ask what is the best RGB value settings..?any one could share the value here..couldn't get one perfectly.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
Depends on your panel.

225 235 255 for me on my replacement panel, all else default.

On my old panel 230 240 255 was similar. :good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Just whatever your eyes enjoy.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dandyzakii:
flashed this kernel and u know what? when listening music using headphone , the sound is .. on and off ,on and off .. so annoying .. and the phone becomes hot even using battery saver.. then , flashed latest bluspark kernel and its working fine and my phone is cooling down .. maybe u wanna check and fix this problem?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dz_da3m0n:
That's hella strange. You're probably on an unsupported ROM
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yeah how about checking for your apps that were probably keeping the cpu cores ramped up? Battery saver completely puts your device in a coma, if it's still hot then it's your own issue. The other Kernel flash didn't fix anything for you because, news flash, that Kernel has most of my commits. What fixed it was the reboot. It's usually good practice to check for CPU usage and see which processes are just going on in the background.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dandyzakii:
rebooted 3 times and doesn't fix anything ,nvm bluspark fix my phone
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
Cool story bro. How about you post some logs since clearly this is only happening to you?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
:good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Empty Hand:
TrenchKato understood you. No need to flash back to stock.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Aria807:
I recall having to flash some ramdisk to stock patch (back when I had 2012 Nexus 7). However, I think that is if you are only changing kernels while leaving the rom as it is. Correct me if I'm wrong.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
If the ROM you are wanting to flash includes a stock kernel then there Is no need to flash the stock ROM before flashing Franco or any other custom kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Doubt it, I want users to run with interactive as its what I've tuned for the best user experience.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] carlese:
Can't wait for r15 mate.. Your kernel is a beast!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Been using these settings all day, 10 hours off charger, hardly any WiFi, 2 hours SOT and still got 60% battery left. I haven't been playing games though as I've been at work but am really impressed with the battery life. Google now on, location reporting and history on, WiFi off when not on a network, location set to battery saving.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ryk k:
ok, unfortunately with interactive I have some lag too much in games like asphalt 8
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
That's strange. I'm not getting any lag anywhere with this kernel. I'm on a slightly newer test than yours, but that doesn't make a difference. I just played riptide and asphalt without a single dropped frame.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Dead trigger 1 performed like a beast when I played it on r15 v1&2. Interactive is just better than on demand which keeps CPU speeds high for too long and is worse on battery life
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
I also noticed some lag in minion rush and beach buggy, was on stock kernel yesterday when I got my phone, today on r15 v3 test, I use stock settings with some UV, haven't used per app power modes yet
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I play all of those games, minion rush, beach buggy, 0 lag anywhere, specially with this new thread migration boost thingy. I'll push the latest r15 test, I did some changes yesterday night to balance the performance/battery ratio.

Thanks for all your feedback guys.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bleuxeon:
whaoooo!

I was playing with go_hispeed_load and set it to 99 wich, I think, is supposed to slow down cpu ramping.

Surprisingly my Antutu top score is increased :

-before : 33500-34000

-after : 35200-35700!!

EDIT : this was with r15v3 and not with the latest r15
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ryk k:
I can not understand why I lag especially in the Asphalt 8: (you tips on what to change to try to get more fluidity? may I ask what ROM you are using?

Inviato dal mio Nexus 5 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Probably due to less thermal throttle since with higher go_hispeed_load the device won't ramp to hispeed_freq so often, thus less heat, more sustained performance, and less spikes due to less thermal throttle calls.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] workshy:
Using r14 riptide 2 drops more frames than stock, but using per app mode and choosing performance governor it then drops less frames than stock. Even then frames are still dropped, one of the worst courses being the highfliers hot lap in the waverider cup section.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I never played Ripitide 2, but Jason tells me it just fine. Although since everyone uses their phones differently I'll buy Ripitide 2 to test it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bleuxeon:
I don't play 3D games but with test15 you have nearly completly remove FPS drops in Antutu.

Before test15, there was kind of dropped frames, even if the displayed FPS was near 50.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] workshy:
The first PIC is using interactive governor and the second using per app mode with performance set.. These give an idea of the usual difference..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sir*mez:
The new test is the one that says boot.Img only no version number, right?

Edit: Yep, date says it all.

Edit 2: It now has version number.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ryk k:
Recommended to use that rom? base stock or base Cyano?

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ali.eid:
After flashing the latest build of franco kernel, along with latest build of PureNexus 7.1.1, my device gets extremely hot and drains battery faster than ever. Just submitting my issue here. Best regards. Google Nexus 5.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
Logs or it didn't happen.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dandyzakii:
just make ur own log
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
Lolwut. Quit trolling. If I had the issue I would. :rolleyes:

If you're not willing to properly help development you don't belong on a developer forum.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ali.eid:
Not quite sure how to get them. But maybe I forgot to mention that the 'hot device' issue mainly occurs when playing games. It gets really hot to the extent that I can boil a cup of tea on it! Again, my best regards to all of you.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
aLogcat ROOT from the Play Store is a decent way to get a logcat, and then typing dmesg in Terminal Emulator to get a kmsg log.

Both logs from when the issue occurs could be helpful in diagnosing the issue. :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dandyzakii:
just give the log so he can trust you
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ali.eid:
Sorry for being late on responding, I already dirty-flashed my ROM so I'm back on PureNexus stock kernel. It's just that I'm a noob at stuff other than flashing things.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
That's not helpful at all. I'm not a physic.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] L.F.B.:
What the f*** is happening here? People trolling bugs?

What they want? Are there some people not liking the great sucess of FK in Android N??
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ali.eid:
First of all, I posted an issue not considering it to be a bug. Secondly, no need to be disrespectful because I haven't abused any one here. Lastly, I really do appreciate all XDA developers for making all the customizations​available.

P.S This was my first and will be my last post in all xda forums.

Thank you all for your hard work!

---------- Post added at 03:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 PM ----------

I'm sorry if you consider it to be annoying but I didn't mean it to be this way. A couple of days ago, I flash PureNexus and straight away flashed fk kernel and noticed the extremely hotness issue while gaming, that's all I know!

---------- Post added at 03:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:28 PM ----------
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
The troll comments weren't directed at you, [MENTION=6067003]ali.eid[/MENTION], you seem like an honest new user. :)

Logs are needed though, so please do flash the kernel again, get the apps I mentioned and upload the log to pastebin or as an attachment.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
The post wasn't directly related to you, I'm sorry. Every device heats up with gaming. You can try and lower the thermal throttle threshold. It's currently at 70ºC (CPU temperature). Once the CPU reaches that temperature freqs will be throttled until the device is well below 70ºC. Rinse and repeat. If that's too hot for you make the treshold 60ºC or even lower. But you'll notice reduced performance.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ScRuFFy7:
Isn't stock thermal throttling set to 65? Maybe I am wrong. That would explain why people, including myself, seem to think stock FK runs hot. I personally always set thermal throttling to 60 without any noticeable performance drops and I do play games.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yes, that's why. I can reduce it to 60 yeah.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ScRuFFy7:
I just think people should be aware of their kernel settings and set them accordingly.

I appreciate your support for our aging N5s.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Just a little FYI I pushed a new version of Servicely. It goes very well with Naptime and it's free. XDA apk is ad-free, but the Play Store version has full screen ads every once in a while. Enjoy: https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/root-servicely-installed-apps-services-t3076769
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SubAtomicFlux:
Phone crashed, was browsing Twitter when the screen went black and it rebooted. I'm on LineageOS 14.1, Franco Kernel r106, Magisk 12.0. According to the last Kernel message it rebooted because of kernel_panic. I have 132 apps installed, so think that might be part of the problem. Though​ since I usually have that many apps I think it might be something else.

Below I've included a few of logs, Iogcat wouldn't upload for some reason but I've heard it clears on reboot anyway, just say if you want it and I'll try to post it when I get home.

If there's anything you guys would like me to try I can do it tonight. Thanks for your help in advance.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SubAtomicFlux:
So right after posting my last post my phone crashed again, about an hour and 15 minutes after the last one, previously I was getting them maybe once a day.

I guess I'll use this post to include some more information. There wasn't many apps running in the background​, as far as I can tell. In terms of root apps I have Greenify, Franco Kernel pro, but I haven't played around much with the settings in either. I included some logs but have purposely left out logcat because the reboot thing this time, I took one anyway so if you want you can have it. I haven't taken a look at these logs but my bet is another kernel panic.

I'm kinda inexperienced, so if I'm doing something wrong here I'd appreciate some advice.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] L.F.B.:
I recomend naptime and servicely always!

Im having 4, 5 days of standby in my n5 also in my n7. Yessss! Not kiding...

Obs. Ive replaced my battery in january.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ali.eid:
I will reflash some time in the future. Thanx for the reply.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
By any chance are you using the Qualcomm beta GPU drivers? I removed them from my hammerhead the other day because I thought they might have been causing soft reboots (direct to boot animation), and I haven't had the issue since.

Edit: Just took a look at your second log, couple stack traces and errors there.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] whiteboi-hakz:
I feel ya had my share of feeling like that dude these forums are turning into a breeding ground for rude arrogant people
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
Yeah, it's disappointing how much attitude the original user (not ali) gave when being asked for a log. Lazy arrogance. Almost as if he came here not to help development but just to make snarky comments and direct people to use another kernel. :rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SubAtomicFlux:
I'm not, at least as far as I'm aware. Any place I can check?

On another note, I tried reflashing the latest LineageOS nightly and it looks like using the Lineage kernel has stopped the kernel panic. However, it might have been something else that was flashed over that was causing the reboots, who knows. I'm going to try reflashing Franco Kernel and see if I can reproduce the crash.

Any other ideas on what could cause the conflict with Franco Kernel?

Edit: Just saw the edit on your post, I'm not quite sure what it means but I'm assuming it's not any GPU drivers.

Fyi: I don't know if it means anything at this point but the reboots I was getting were going straight to the Google logo so not a soft reboot
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
Lineage doesn't use them, so probably not the same issue.

If you still have the panics maybe stop using Greenify temporarily and see if it makes a difference?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SubAtomicFlux:
I'll try it and see.

Edit: I figure a good way to rule out Greenify here is to just uninstall it and reflash Franco Kernel, which I've just done. We'll see if I still get the panics without it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SubAtomicFlux:
I haven't had any more kernel panics but I had a third crash that happened yesterday afternoon, before I did anything.

I guess it doesn't hurt to have more logs so here they are. I took a logcat as well. Like before, just ask if you want it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
Hmm. Exact same errors.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SubAtomicFlux:
~4 hours later and no kernel panic, I'll run like this for at least 24 hours until I install Greenify again, hopefully we can determine whether or not Greenify is the culprit here. Then again, I guess I could try naptime and servicely as a replacement :laugh:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ali.eid:
Now that made a big difference! Reduced it to 60, and the heat has dropped down! Told you it was an issue not a bug!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
I crank mine up to 80 because I like to feel the performance/burn. :p
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Thanks for the logs. Hard to figure out what it is. Trying to guess what it might be, but it's a Kernel panic indeed. Try the attached Kernel zip pls.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dandyzakii:
Why this kernel makes my phone damn laggy? Is it strategy to get "legendary battery life"?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] _Vegas:
U can not get both performance and battery.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dandyzakii:
Yes, makes sense
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Hmm I don't have any lag.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dandyzakii:
But yeah, i got 5h+ SoT, u done well, thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SubAtomicFlux:
OK, so I've been using the kernel zip you provided and I haven't been getting kernel panics, however my background keeps changing to the default background and my keyboard will , after some time. Open up AOSP keyboard instead of my last used keyboard Gboard.

I don't seem to be able to upload logs from my phone right now but I can do so from my computer later. I took a few logs so just ask and you shall receive.

I haven't reinstalled greenify. Also haven't gotten any kernel panics since I reflashed lineageOS yesterday, hard to say whether or not it was the reflashing of the system or the new kernel that stopped the panics. I have a nandroid of my kernel panic build and I can restore it if you guys want me to do some testing with it, unfortunately I forgot my USB drive with the backup at my grandparents house, and I won't get it back until tomorrow.

On another note I tried out servicely and naptime today, and I've been fairly happy with the battery life I'm getting with it.

Thanks for your hard work Franco!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
None of that is even remotely related to the Kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SubAtomicFlux:
Ohh, I had selected Gboard and wallpapers in servicely so I think that's what was causing it lol. I was confused as to how a kernel update could interfere with that stuff. I guess I'll just be more conscious about the stuff I select in servicely.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Respect!:
5 hours ? :confused:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Respect!:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dandyzakii:
Yeah lol, maybe it is dead, but this is fantastic rom if u want a good battery life, and don't forget to flash franco

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Roms have nothing to do with battery life.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dandyzakii:
really ? i have proof that rom affect the battery life
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SteveMurphy:
It isn't the ROM at all, it is the kernel within the ROM that controls battery life, not to mention the myriad of apps each user has. This is an old discussion.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
And just from general point of view: the fact that flashing one rom gives you worse battery life than flashing another, does not equal direct connection between the rom and bat.drain. It's simple logic.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dandyzakii:
wow amazing
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Show me numbers in controlled test scenarios proving it. Android System is gigantic, there is SO much going on different areas, there's no one on XDA that knows the half of it. I doubt even Android Framework engineers know it all. The changes that happen on roms around XDA are 99,9999% of the time cosmetic and never touch areas that impact battery life. I cannot stress this enough.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mkoev:
it's just easier to blameFranco whatsoever :)))
