Well that's what we're all after, more battery without losing much perceived performance. As I said I can't take all the credits, most of the patches are not from me but from CodeAurora with all their open source involvement. Of course its not easy to merge all the things together, I must've rebased trees more than 50 times during all the work and had to go through all the commits dozens of times to hand pick those that I didn't want, or some that were problematic. Its a very time consuming "job", but it paid off big time.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
Can confirm. Battery is ridiculously better on 33. I'll post stats if this thing ever dies...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GabrielOspina:
Is seem to be getting problems controlling volume after flashing r33 , like let's say I am on youtube and I try to lower the volume , it doesn't work sometimes , and sometimes when I am even on dock it doesn't work.

And the back button doesn't work sometimes on apps and dock ,along with apps randomly closing

I got cataclysm and franco kernel r33

Edit: reboot fixes it lol

Would terminal cmd "start/stop mpdecsion" work here? is there any cmd to turn on/off snakecharmer and eco mode?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Savant:
Kernel doesn't use mpdecision and snake charmer and eco mode sounds like faux kernel not Franco kernel.

Is anyone else getting black screen of death, or phone freezing in apps until phone is restarted? This started on r33 on catac ROM stock settings.

PLEASE someone help? I have to go back on r32 because I can't use 33. I never had this problem before and all I did was flash r33
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Savant:
Nope not having having that problem with stock or even cataclysm . None of the apps freeze but logs would be pertinent to your situation .

R33 + bone stock (no mods @ all) + dalvik is running like Butta, amazing battery life! No issues to report. Thanks [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION]! Your work is greatly appreciated :thumbup:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] armyboy11b:
Logcat?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
What it seems to me is that cataclysm must be doing some weird crap on their rom. That volume **** looks like they are using something from CAF that they shouldn't (just guessing here). The rest is userspace stuff so you better be off reporting to their thread.

1 - mpdecision is disabled here for the sake of mankind

2 - there is no stupid snakecharmer here because that buzzoword was invented to sound like a feature when in fact it isn't as all the code for that is present by default on stock Kernel tree one just needs to do the proper coding to make use of it. But its irrelevant in this Kernel

3 - eco mode doesn't exist here at all and its just another buzzword for a feature that is merely just disabling 2 cores and probably limiting the cpu freqs (not sure about this one, haven't used the Kernel that has it)

Mr. Franciscofranco,

I got the fku app to install by deleting the /data/data/com.blah.fku folder!

Would it be possible to add lower screen brightness levels to your kernel? I find it really comes in handy for late night viewing.

i keep my brightness to minimum yet get about 4hr SOT
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dastinger:
I know this does not help much but, just so you know, Cataclysm is stock based and the dev is gone from XDA since the last ROM update (December 17th or something) so I don't think the issue is with the ROM or any new commits but something the user himself did. Factory reset should fix things.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] FuMMoD:
Yeah cataclysm has not changed since December and I've been running it since November without a single issue. This is user error and not a rom issue. There's no other reason for him to be the only one out of hundreds experiencing that issue since December.

SlimKat with the new r33 and ART. Location set to GPS, Sync off unless I wanted to sync a new contact or Gmail or something like that, auto brightness, NFC off, and I make sure to disable mobile data if I am connected to WiFi. On this cycle, I pretty much stayed on WiFi just about the whole time b/c it was over the weekend and I was off today. I'm sure that that was part of my really great battery. Didn't really do much with the phone over the past few days except ALOT of Tapatalk and browsing Chrome. I used BBS to find and get rid of all of my apps that caused wakelocks. As far as FKU goes, most of my settings are stock. Max CPU=2.2 & min=300 UV -50 & 300 & 422 @ 680. Vibration @ 60 CPU temp threshold = 70 Fast charge enabled and Logcat disabled. That's it.

My brightness was definitely not set to minimum. I had it set on auto the entire time. I was just mostly at home connected to WiFi. Still an amazing feat.

Is gps lock affected by the kernel? It's taking me a few minutes to get a lock on location
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Its already on its lowest brightness settings possible. Lower and the display will be turned off.

IO schedulers should not play any part in battery life, they just order and merge IO requests.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
I have had the Google launcher reload a few times and my ram has been dropping it's now around 730mb when before u was alway around 1gb or so. Could this be a memory leak? I don't have more or different apps in the ram so idk what it could be. Should I get a kernel log or log cat? Or what log?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
I'm using a brightness dimmer module to dim the screen even lower, so MAYBE there is a chance you can dim it even further? I'm not trying to doubt you on purpose :) I love your work.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TrenchKato:
I have been trying to track down what is causing this since the r33 test began. From what I can tell Chrome is the cause of it. But this does happen to me at least a couple times a day.

Even happens after a clean flash. The next thing I am going to try is the AOSP browser.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
Yea I don't remember Google launcher ever reloading on r32 and r33 seemed fine until now when I noticed it reloading and then I checked the RAM use because I heard that it's a ram issue and noticed it was much lower than normal. What log would be the right log to show Franco?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Seadra:
Tell me how can I be of any help then? If I get the issue again, should I send you the logs? an where can I get the logs?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
That's one way, another is to see and try to find an exact way to reproduce consistently, that way others (myself included) can try to reproduce to help find where the problem is.. Like franco said, he can't reproduce the issue, so can't debug it.

oh, [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION], love the red header you've added to the OP, wonder how many people will actually read it. :P

system monitor question

I am running R33 and amazed by the battery performance.

I have one question(or you say suggestion) related with the system monitor

Is there any way in system monitor that the CPU Freq tab show the CPU FREQ of the on going full charge cycle and the not values from the previous charge.

means it will reset after every full change.

Or do we have any settings to get this in FKU 11.3

thanks.

My bad! Just trying to learn the ropes here. So would using any kernel control app be sufficient to clock the device?

I pushed a new FKU beta just now before heading to bed. You probably won't notice any visible change but I made thousands of lines of changes, fixed some layouts, and made some safeguards around PerApp Modes service, please if you're on the beta channel test it out throughly and give me some feedback, specially while using PerApp Modes. Off to bed, happy tweakings!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] harshalkatakia:
r33 is awesome! Thanks a lot franco! Got 5h 48m of SOT with usage of 1d 10h. Never got so much.

This is my normal usage without having to keep the screen on just for the sake of getting a good SOT.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tråget:
No there's not. He IS on the lowest brightness level. What a screen dimmer does is to put a black mask in front of everything. Simply put, brightness is the same, but colors are dimmer!? :)

Hope you understand what I mean.

Cheers
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
Yes I know that there are apps which put a Filter on the screen to "dim" the screen down, but why would a kernel module do the same? I have a strong feeling that it actually lowers the brightness value even lower than stock Franco. I believe that because when you use the module and bring the brightness slider all the way down it is dimmer than stock franco, but if you were to bring the slider all the way down without the module but instead an app that filters the screen to "dim" the screen you would get the stock franco dimness value until you go into the app and enable the filter. And the brightness slider would have no effect on that. I don't even know if what i said makes sense lol.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tråget:
An app can't lower brightness more even if it was possible to go lower. Untick automatic brightness and drag the slider to the far left. That is the lowest possible brightness. As Franco put it himself, "lower than that and the screen will be turned off".
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
That's exactly what I'm saying. The app would only put a constant filter on the screen. So increasing the brightness with the slider would result in very little change. But with the module when I drag the slider all the way to the left, its lower than stock Franco. You can't do this with the app. So with that difference in mind, I think that the module does not use a filter.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sordna:
Of course, it's Tester, not Pester :)

So do you know of a more reliable app to get accurate gamma values ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
[MENTION=3137364]Tråget[/MENTION] http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2514765

Link to the module. And inside is a link to his github for the module, I think he uses some formula to get even lower levels.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] matesc:
Dear Franco! The problem with the headphones is still there. Here are the steps to understand it: Set headphone gain to -1. Every other sound setting is stock. Play music on headphones. Move the slider to maximum volume. Call someone, while you are playing music. Disconnect the headphones during the phone call. Complete the call. Plug headphones back in and play music. Right headphone stops playing.

Hope this helps. I love your kernel but I listen to music a lot and it is very annoying having to reboot a phone while listening to music and receiving or making a call to achieve high volume. BTW it does still work on lower volume after a call, though.

Thanks in advance and keep up the fantastic work!:thumbup:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gee2012:
Its best to post (attach) a log when you have an issue so Franco can read it out.

Hi Franco,

Thanks for the new update !

The new input boost frequency in per app mode is awesome, but since I updated FKU, PerApp Modes doesn't seem to work (stock ROM + no mods + didn't clean FK or any other app from recent apps).

Would a log help finding the problem ? If so, I'll post one later
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tråget:
Sorry, thought you were talking about an app.

Haven't tried that one. And I won't either, since I think the lowest value on this kernel is a bit too low already. But I would like to see the lowest values compared to each other. Sooooo, if you have nothing better to do... :D

memory leak

Hello,

can you confirm that a memory leak in combination with the camera?

I boot my device, then I have quite a lot of free RAM. Everything is great. When I open the camera and take a few HDR + photos and the camera close again, I have about 300MB more RAM consumption.

In the app settings, I see that all the cached apps are killed except the Google Launcher (Search). That's not normal?!

Sometimes it takes to restart the launcher. At one time the phone reboots.

Yes, that's right, ask on the developers thread. By the way Thanks franco for your hard work on this great kernel.

Edit just to add: There's 1800+ pages, there's a lot more posts. What is it with some people on XDA and their sarcastic replies? I asked a perfectly acceptable question. I've got to say that the attitude of some XDA members is enough to put someone off Android altogether, let alone XDA. I'm just glad the helpful and polite members outweigh the bad ones.

As you can all see, after the release of stable 33 build, everyone are mentioning about the great kernel. After all everyone are very thrilled and they can share their image, chat to their gf, and call their parents, do their social networking such as whatsapp, Facebook, insta, can connect with their friends, etc that too for some more hour. All because of Franco. This kernel has proved that battery can last for long time more than what Google did in Nexus 5. Mind blowing... Thank you so much bro.. :o

If this results to the launcher reboot, then that is not negligible. Apps are no longer in the cache and each time must be reloaded, that's bad for the battery.

There's definitely something playing up with the thermal throttle Franco :/ Noticed my device was stuttering slightly and sure enough the max freq is pegged at 1190mhz.

View attachment 2586487

Check cpu temp, it's only 46-48c (throttle temp set at 75c).

View attachment 2586488

Put my device down and let it cool for a bit (9 mins from images), temp drops to 41c but the max freq is still pegged at 1190mhz.

View attachment 2586489

I am using per-app power modes for a few games but none of them are using the 1190mhz as max so it shouldn't be that. Only other changes from stock settings are a lowered input freq of 1267mhz and max gpu freq of 320mhz. I'm also undervolting rather aggressively but that should

mean I'm being throttled less :( If there's anything I can do to help you figure this out, please let me know!

Edit: Even when the temp got down to 36c, it was still pegged :(
