If the max load among other CPUs is higher than up_threshold_any_cpu_load and if the highest frequency among the other CPUs is higher than up_threshold_any_cpu_freq then do not let the frequency to drop below sync_freq.

That's the camera daemon binary, has nothing to do with the Kernel.

I cannot reproduce that with FKU, all works perfectly fine.

I don't really know if both values mean the same. I don't know exactly where mixer_paths.xml goes into the sound chip. I do know that the Kernel sound interface writes the values directly to the chip registers.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I already answered you, I don't know.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Google search kept your device awake for a long time and I believe your Wi-Fi held a wakelock through too for a while. Nothing I can do about that, Wi-Fi drivers are stock.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] OGroteKoning:
What does your values represent? Percentages? Or just a random scale?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Mynix:
Problem fixed after a reboot as I said, no worries ;)

But before the reboot this is what I got :/ And since I'm not the only one I found that strange. But not kernel related so nothing we can do I think. Haven't faced the issue again though :)

Thanks Franco for the clarification

Maybe what's not normal is worrying about battery usage when you don't use your phone.

If you don't like the battery level after a full day, plug the damn thing in. You DO have access to electricity on a more than daily basis, don't you?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] amphi66:
And do as I did, change values 1 or 2 at a time and analyze the resultant sound to see what you like. I find +9 takes my speaker to a sweet spot. --Larry

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Manitax:
Could someone tell me where the file is stored, to turn on fast charge?

I want to turn it on by a script, as fku seems to be very buggy for me. I know i have to wait for the values to stick. But a lot of times it just resets.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Sorry to add to the battery screen shot brigade but I'm really happy with my results of playing with the various gov controls. Most of my usage has been light stuff like tapatalk, SMS, whatsapp and a little navigation. No gaming or anything intensive. Mixture of 3g and poor signal and WiFi going between home and work. I would see how far I can push but I know battery won't last all tomorrow so I'll need to charge soon. Biggest wake lock was where I listened to radio app for 20 mins at lunch. See link in my sig for settings. To summarise that's 4.5 hours SOT after 16 hours off charger with 33% left

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Just pushed another test boot, now #8:

* Merged a couple Wi-Fi driver patches from Google's common repo, one of them is made specially to decrease the rx wakelock (read the commit message: https://github.com/franciscofranco/hammerhead/commit/5dd724eb19f768e641041a0b897c5e8464077949)

* Disabled stock thermal-engine-hh service (no point for this since we're using my thermal driver code)

* Change to exponential backlight control - more info in the chip datasheet: http://www.ti.com/general/docs/lit/getliterature.tsp?literatureNumber=snvs974&fileType=pdf

* Move down touchboost() call to the touch IRQ handler

Power consumption should be considerably lower during screen off + Wi-Fi enabled & connected.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Bobtehblob:
Will give test 8 a go after I finish reinstalling everything, had to do a factory reset...

Heads up to anyone using TWRP. If for any reason you need to wipe cache/dalvik, make sure you don't force reboot whilst doing it. For reasons beyond me, it takes about half an hour to wipe cache/dalvik, so once you've started it just wait it out. If you force reboot, your internal storage will be corrupted :( Seems like recoveries across the board are pretty screwed up on the n5 at the moment, so be careful!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] kydkupa:
Thanks. Should've looked first.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
How do you use Greenify? The xposed Framework is not working yet.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] brittonberkan:

In the TWRP thread, they're talking about enabling the setting rm rl or something of that sort would bring it back to normal speeds. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47313585&postcount=328

I flashed test8 with Flashify and got 3 random reboots so far.

First 2 reboots without UV and the 3rd with -50mV.

Here is the last_kmsg after the 3rd reboot.

Edit 1: Just had a 4th reboot.

Edit 2: I flashed factory kernel and re-flashed test8 in bootloader via fastboot

Edit 3: After flashing test8 via fastboot i don't have reboots anymore with 725-975mV (phone reboots with anything lower than that)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GavinAshford:
[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] just an FYI: not sure what the latest FKU (Proj Pringles) update had in it but after install it just kept FC when opening (just on my N5, N4 was fine) - still the same even after clearing data/cache for the app. A reboot sorted it in the end though.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
It won't hurt anything in the long run. Some apps may force close and will be unusable at worst. If you want to dalvik go back dev settings change it and reboot. I like art myself although Franco recommends sticking with dalvik till art is developed more
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Savant:
What would be optimal settings for the speaker and headset since I've never tinkered with it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Langduscher:
I just randomly hit the Thanks button Francisco for your great efforts from which I profit on my devices.

Very thankful to be part of the journey to better and better each update. Same goes for Gingerbread Man, Nbsss & Jnewms for experimenting with tunables :good::good:

Also bought the XDA premium app for support although I hate the app and continue to use browser - but I learned a ton here :good:

There are no optimal values, what sounds good for me doesn't necessarily sound good for you.

Hi all

First of all....

Thanks for the hard work franco on this fantastic kernel!

Iam owner of a N5 for about 2 weeks right now and after a week on stock i decided to go custom bequese of my great battery life (NOT!).

Now iam on kernel r25 and i have some n00b questions...

- I UV'd my settings with -50mV all steps, my question is are there ANY risks with undervolting except that you can get a bootloop?

- And is there a way to test if you are having more lagg then before the UV tweaks???

Maybe this questions are very simpel but i did read alot in this section but cant find nothing about this 2 subjects...

Kind regards,
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Speaker I wouldn't try anything over 15 it could damage after prolonged use. I use 8. Headset depends on personal preference, you need to try and experiment. I only set it 1 level higher with headset gain of -2.

[MENTION=4468759]Ti2[/MENTION] the tapatalk app is quite good

---------- Post added at 11:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 PM ----------

Head for the link in my signature it will help answer some of your questions. UV doesn't cause lag it just reduces electrical consumption and heat generated by the cpu
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nickj2010:
Franco, I've found a force close in FKU, in the file manager.

If you enter a folder within a folder (for example the kernel_backups in updater folder) and then hit back twice quickly to get back to the root directory it crashes.

Don't know if its been mentioned before, sorry if it has.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mazsuper:
What app allows you to increase speaker volume ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Fku or a script

I can't reproduce that but if you can send a crash report through Google play reporting service by pressing the report button

Weird, I tried it on both my nexus 5 & 7 and it crashed on both.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] peikojose:
I reproduced it... Fc..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Thank you.

I could not reproduce it, but I already made a couple changes on the app since last release.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PresidentMcCain:
Thanks for the assessment.

Yeah, Google Search has been a thorn for me... killing the battery on-and-off. On a good day when it doesn't interfere, I usually see ~ 1% drain per 9 hours idle, and much much higher when Google Search misbehaves.

Seems to be attributed to Location settings. The drain is not as drastic with Location On, but not as good as with Location Off and Google Search behaving correctly. But it seems that the only way to consistently get Google Search to behave correctly is keeping Location On.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Enddo:
i've found the exact opposite. when i keep location on, google now likes to keep my device awake and night instead of letting it sleep
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Savant:
@ The Gingerbread Man so do you go negative or positive to get better effect with the headset?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] KTT16:
I would try -5 and +5 to test the difference and see what you like better.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PresidentMcCain:
Toggling this option?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Enddo:
yes, that is the location feature i am talking about. i never let it sit on high accuracy though. also low battery mode, when i decide to use it
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] abbz123:
I leave it on, but turn off location reporting and location history.

Hasn't affected my Google now. I do keep wifi scan on though

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neocryte:
Any ideas why these wakelocks are so prevalent for me? I do have location reporting on but not sure if that's what is causing this.

I'm on r24 of the kernel (and stock 4.4.2 ROM).
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neocryte:
Forgot to include the second pic.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PresidentMcCain:
That happens when Location is turned Off with Google Now turned On and Google Location Reporting turned on. Google Search causes massive battery drainage.

It's more than likely a bug in Google Search app, improper handling for disabled Location settings, and has been reported everywhere on Google's own product forums:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] malinois16:
Im going to and to the battery stats screenshots. Here are my usages, settings and rom. I am using Cataclysm ROM with ART runtime, I am running R25 kernel with only a global 75mv undervolt and no underclock. I have all location setting and google services on, but have battery saving enabled. I sync gmail and one email acct and sync everything google is on. I have brightness in 10 percent most of my time was spent indoors so that is plenty bright IMO. Most of the time WIFI was on and I was connected with smart radio feature enabled in Cataclysm. When I left the house today I did disable wifi. Always scanning is off though always. I have 19 hrs off charger from 100% to 0% with 5 hours on screen time. About an hour screen time internet surfing. Some, very few hangout sms messages, no phone calls today. Of course some email reading at least 25 messages throughout the day and a few replies. About 3 1/2 hours of reading the GOOD BOOK, mostly just to have something to do so I could see how much screen time I could get in a day. I am very happy with the result. I am sure when I am back at work next year I should have no problems getting through a typical day with many sms messages and hours of phone time and typically not over an hour of screen time. Lets just say I am very pleasantly surprised coming from a Note II, that this little phone with this little battery can easily hang with it. Thanks Franco with you this would not be possible. With a few more tweaks I can see even better performance I am sure. Since my CPU is bined Svs 5 :D. Enough talk here are the screen shot. I know it says on wireless charger but I waited to long and phone powered down before I could get a screenshot. I just put it on charge long enough to pwr up and get a shot this is actual time!

Sorry for the Novel Red. It seems there are always naysayers in this thread doubting the SOT with this Kernel. Just wanted to convey that I did not turn off any services and kept full smartphone usage and still had all day usage with 5 hrs SOT. Incredible IMHO. This kernel and Cataclysm Rom, FTW, they rock together! BTW I have tried many other Roms and kernels. These are the best for my usages. :good:

Some pages back somebody said his alarms don't go off. During the holidays I set three one time alarms and none of them went off. Once I rebooted my phone and then it said "one missed alarm" and by pressing the notification the phone rebooted. Today again the alarm didn't work but it didn't rebooted. However periodic alarms seems to work.

I didn't think it's a kernel thing but since Franco was able to find something in kmsg I thought I would share it.
