Hi,

I'm not completely sure but my impression is that charging is slower with R19 compared to stock kernel. Can anybody confirm?

I was curious because I've heard all these complaints about Slim and Franco not working nicely and if you read the last couple of pages of the Slim thread, looks like the latest Faux (also a 4.4.1 kernel) has the same issues -- which points to the same problem that has been mentioned ad naseum over the last couple of days in this thread. If you are using a 4.4.1 kernel on not pure 4.4.1 base (or vise versa - 4.4 kernel on a pure 4.4.1 base) there are going to be issues with video recording.

If you look at the dev's own posts, they are directing people to use their own custom kernel since that seems to be the only one not having issues on SLIM. That's telling me that they are somehow still patching 4.4 and 4.4.1 components and their custom kernel probably also is a hybrid. As has been mentioned several times, if you try the STOCK 4.4.1 kernel or one of the other 4.4.1-specific kernels (ElementalX-N5-0.14, etc. since the latest Faux seems to also "fail") my guess would be you're going to have the same issue.

So if that is the case, there's nothing for franco to "fix." Folks having issues on SLIM either can run the SLIM kernel that is recommended, run another ROM with franco that doesn't have the same issues, or somehow ask the dev of SLIM to rebase (although I'm sure he has his own reasons for keeping it the way he has it and that's his prerogative).

Personally, I've been waiting to flash r19 (probably will wait for r20) because I keep seeing random kernel panic posts which do concern me if they are legit, but it's a little hard sometimes to wade through real issues vs. ones that are "phantom" like the folks still trying to run r19 on 4.4-based roms :(

On another note, franco - your kernel is a beast, and I applaud the level of patience and dedication you have on this thread!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Langduscher:
Stock 4.4.1 & r19 deep sleep is less good than Stock 4.4 & r16 was. No funny wakelocks whatsoever.

Still beats the crap outta stock kernel tho :cowboy:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] enursed:
Just had a kernel panic

It ramps to 1267MHz when you touch the display. Been discussed more times than I changed my socks during 2013.

I sincerely haven't seen any panic log or panic reports on r19 besides the one just above this post.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Interesting log, thanks :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] a5pe4:
I've seen those discussions but it's weird that it never ramps up past that no matter what I do. Whether I play games or something it still stays at 1267.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pinoymutt:
I thought I saw a couple early on, but like I said so hard to separate real and not so real reports :D

But if all is well, looks like I've got some flashing to do!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Testraindrop:
Yes for Wifi.

Only UV -50 in FKU, other than that no.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Krunk83:
People using slim 4.4.1 beta 1.2 and franco please test that the video is saving after you record it. The issue was with video saving, not not working.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tcat007:
Tested Purity 4.4.1 and video saves. Have not flashed Franco to it yet.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hosmsdos:
Guys any idea why my vibration settings does not stick on boot. Each it resets to 100
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] brittonberkan:
Great kernel once again. Just one question:What's the vibration amp of the stock 4.4.1 kernel? Still 63?

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Because you're thermal throttled? That's the only reason for the max freq being locked to a certain freq other than max.

Yes.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
did you read the in-app tutorials when you first launched fku?

did you tell it to set on boot (long touch the setting you want to set on boot in fku, unless you managed to snag the beta app in which case there is a toggle on the right side of the screen for that setting)

(note to self... stop answering questions that a quick search would allow the asker to find for themselves...)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
1d 9h 16m later and 58% left with almost 2h SOT I can't hold it anymore and I need to plug it in for Kernel testing. So happy about this battery life!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ben36:
Do you undervolt? If so what settings please?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Krunk83:
This is about what I get when I am on mostly wifi and intermittent LTE. I leave my FKU settings stock. I can go two days easy on wifi and moderate use.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Moose0704:
Very Nice, cannot wait to get this on MAHDI-ROM!! I am building 4.4.1 now ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Alfonso87:

Need your r20 then! :D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobmarsh72:
Also getting great battery with your stock settings. Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Alfonso87:
Omg your signal... ç_ç

I have never seen it so green! Here is always light yellow ç_ç

I'm using stock kernel but I do miss having two cores always on :(

But wow the stock kernel impressive as well 19h50m on battery (WiFi) and 4h44m screen on. I never remember getting that on 4.4 stock kernel.

I think the CPU freq is a bit overused compared to Franco's changes, the phone tends to get hotter than when I was using R17. So [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION], as far as I'm aware THIS should be the stock kernel. You totally outdid all those Qualcomm developers haha
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] brittonberkan:
battery life on r19 is brilliant one hour screen on and two hours of standby, and I'm on 87%. Awesome

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
My voltages are my concern alone.

Sure, increase input_boost_freq to 1574400, that's what I did on my build that I used to test the battery life. Now I'm just improving some code.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] murdok83:
Same thing with my nexus 5: using stock 4.4.1 and Franco r19 and FKU but the vibration setting doesn't stick on boot... And yes, I set it to boot on start-up...

Plus, could someone tell me the normal voltage for 300hz!? I did an UV and now I can't remember the default value :D

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sirbanger:
Anyone here running performance governor as default? If so, what are your thoughts on battery life / performance?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] zephiK:
Do not use performance as your daily governor. It keeps min/max at 2.2/2.2 I believe. Of course performance will be amazing but battery life will not be as good.

Its only used for benchmarking.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jimlarck:
Don't know if I should wait for r20 or flash r19, DECISIONS DECISIONS.

I think Franco should help me out and make my life easier by releasing r20 ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
turn off the set on boot for that freq, and reboot..... seriously...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
If you do a lot of small routines, performance governor might be quite good in the long run, but if you use your phone for long periods, like reading websites or books, or seeing videos, your battery life will be destroyed.

Already told you how to achieve r20 (in its current state at least), increase input_boost_freq to the value I said last page.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Jimlarck:
Ah, didn't see that, well I increased input_boost_freq to 1574400, let's see how it goes :)

Thanks Franco!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] P.Mobile:
Google really needs to hire you to dev kernels for them..:good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] samdal:
Stock (4.4.1) vs r19. Same type of usage. App 24 hours from 100% to 15%. 3h15 min SOT with stock, app. one hour more with Franco. Excellent! Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Mtk87:
I'm trying to look for help here too... I get a SIM removed message followed by new SIM found message.. I thought it was the new radio from 4.4.1, but I flashed the old and still have the same problem... Could it be your kernel? Before 4.4.1 I was on faux and no problem, don't know what to do :(

Great kernel a part from that issue (maybe not kernel related) and super battery life.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Moh_Jay:
Hey Franco got a quick question. When recording with camera my videos save but during recording the screen is darker ( only happens with back facing camera, front facing is fine and back facing pictures are also fine). Would this be a weird situation where nothing can be done? I only bring this up because on cataclysm running it with the stock 4.4.1 kernel doesn't get you this but custom kernels do.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
I'm running purity and I tested before and after flashing kernel and my video is dark using both :/

---------- Post added at 01:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 PM ----------
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ItzMar:
Can I ask when to flash?

Im about to switch from stock to Cataclysm and would like Franco as my kernel.

Can i flash it immediately after flashing the ROM? Or should i boot up and then go back into recovery?

Cheers for the help.

Looking forward to using this kernel. Heard great things! :cyclops:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mitchdickson:
You can flash it immediately after rom flash.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] maniyoshi:
flash catclysm then flash the kernel :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ItzMar:
Cheers guys! :good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Moh_Jay:
Depends, you could be facing a dilemma similar to slimroms if purity is built from source. Cataclysm is coded features into the stock image Google provided which is why using stock kernel doesn't have the dark video recording bug.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nexusmaniac:
My video is much darker than my pictures with stock ROM and Franco kernel, I haven't tried with stock kernel but that shouldn't make a difference I don't think?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sordna:
Does your GPS icon in the status bar flash ?

Hi, sorry for the OT but on my N4 after KitKat the GPS icon no longer flashes while trying to get a satellite fix. If I go into maps it immediately turns on solid, even if I have no satellite lock yet.

Is it the same on the Nexus 5 ? If so, that's a horrible downgrade in KitKat. Let's all star the issue so they fix it:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=62634
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
I have no idea, trying to figure it all out lol, I don't remember if 4.4 had this issue
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nexusmaniac:
I don't know, I don't think I filmed anything with 4.4 :P
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ben_pyett:
I've looked through the latest (production) FKU and can't see where the CPU temp is displayed, this used to exist in the previous version, have I simply missed it?

Reason I'm after it was that felt the device warming my thigh while on weak 3g signal this afternoon, nice as it was a cold day and I'd not worn the warmest of clothes, but I would have liked to be able to tell if device was extremely warm or my leg was simply being over sensitive? :confused:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
+1 this is making me sad lol, happened to me with both stock kernel using purity and Franco kernel and happened in cataclysm using Franco, just don't remember if I tested it using stock kernel with cataclysm.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ben36:
Switch between camera, video, photosphere and panorama then back to video. It's like a weird glitch and your video will be light again
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] roilosh11:
Just got my Nexus 5, immediately rooted and flashed Franco. ?

Just one question, and please don't flame me, does this kernel have any problems when using ART?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nexusmaniac:
+1 Works
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ben36:
Yup. Weird eh!?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
O wtf it worked Lmfao
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yoyoz808:
Hey franco,

I noticed a small bug in the latest beta of your app. When im in support window and select one of the options and when the window pops up for "Complete action using" and you hit the back button, it says "You currently have no per-app modes Created. Save new modes in previous tab." in the background. A minor thing.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Take it back it worked again.

Ahh I can't do it again lol, but it definitely worked for the moment.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ben_pyett:
No problems, ART works fine with this kernel - I'm running it happily now, as Franco previously answered ART/Dalvik are userspace programs are not affected by kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] roilosh11:
Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ion_elgreco:
It works, but if you film then its back, and panorma is almost black btw. Google screwed up aigain?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bleuxeon:
agreed, but test the Moto X Dalvik 's patch and you would leave ART that for now remains a beta thing.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] roilosh11:
Hmm a little OT but can't switch to ART? :what:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mikeyinid:
Ran Trinity for over a week and got about 10 hours with 2 hrs screen on. Having owned every Nexus device I thought that was pretty decent. Switched to r19 a few nights ago and last night at bedtime I was at 15 hrs with 4 hrs screen on. Huge battery improvements in this kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Think so smh
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Alfonso87:
Wow...it's more fluid than before..If my memory serves me correctly you said that from 1.5MHz and beyond the ddr management changes. That's the reason why it runs more smoothly? and without an increase battery drain! GJ Mr. Franco :D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] halfez:
I was having the same issue with r19, I re-flashed r15test and I am having no problems with the video camera being dark.

On stock ROM 4.4.1
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
So maybe it's the kernel it self, not saying Franco kernel but the 4.4.1 kernel in general, good find!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IAreKyleW00t:
I can verify that it worked for me. Definitely notice the difference. haha

Running AOSP 4.4.1 + r19
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lolpok:
i heard that r20 or something will be super smooth, i really hope it's true because i love smooth scrolling :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luisvilla1993:
if you're running r19, franco said that right now the only difference is the input boost freq, which he increased to 1574400
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] KennyDumah:
Whats the stock vibration strength of 4.4.1?

Did it changed from 63?

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ben36:
But it then resets to dark again and won't work again.

Can anyone confirm dark video on stock kernel or just this one?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IAreKyleW00t:
Yeah, if you leave Camera app it'll be dark again and you gotta do the process all over. I don't know if the stock 4.4.1 kernel does it though.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] workshy:
Exactly the same on stock
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ben36:
So it's the new camera apk?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IAreKyleW00t:
From what I've seen, I don't think it happened to people on 4.4 - So it could be the new camera app or maybe the new 4.4.1 kernel changes, but I wouldn't be able to know for sure. :X
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PhantomGamers:
It happened on 4.4 for me (with Franco, I'm not sure about stock but I'm sure it's not a kernel thing).
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lolpok:
Ok.. No big change i see... :( i don't know why but r19 lags for me, maybe i have to switch kernel :(
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
my guess is that the new camera apk auto exposure is over compensating for the locked open shutter on video..... dropping the iso too much...

I don't seem to have the issue on my n5, but for those of you who are, what are the lighting conditions you're seeing the dark vid's in? bright light, low light, something in between or always?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luisvilla1993:
try boosting the input freq and see if it helps
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Moh_Jay:
Changing the input boost will increase the clock speed to 1.5ghz on touch instead of 1.2ghz its on now. Battery won't be affected much and you will get smoothness.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IAreKyleW00t:
I don't see how it could lag for you. Even with my settings (in my sig) I get no lag whatsoever in any games I play or with anything I do. Everything is smooth sailing for me.

r20 is going to have some code improvements in it as well, but the input_boost_freq change is the 'biggest' change.

He makes beta versions, and then a final. Unless it is an urgent bug fix.

I just can't manage to kill the battery and I need to go to sleep now.

So, I managed to get 5.5 hours SOT with 1day 11.5 hours of runtime while still have more than 30% left ;)

Using Wi-Fi, autobrightness, tapatalk, browsing, mail, google now, sync, location, whatsapp etc.

No gaming.

Only -50UV and default settings.

No magic battery apps.

Omni Rom.

It's nice to know that I can now truly rely on the phone without worrying about the battery.
