[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
In my own opinion the only actual issue seems to be the blue tooth disconnect / reconnections. I don't hardly ever use BT so it doesn't really effect me. Audio skipping and stuff can be worked around by not using top 2 volume notches (noted in my FAQ already). Memory seems fine since official r34. If there was a way to not add anything related to BT from CAF that would be great as r35 seems solid otherwise.

Edit

The only other possibility I can think of is just politely explain to users sometimes **** does go wrong when using beta softwares, and anyone who does report bugs needs to provide the logs nessesary. Last_kmsg, logcat, syslog etc etc
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SedyBenoitPeace:
Well for now i can tell that I didn't notice audio glitches after the first listening with the new kernel! For me now this kernel is perfect... I don't use bluetooth devices and for brightness I use lux! But if you want to start from the scratch I think that you know what you're making!

My latest wish is to see the deep sleep improvement on wifi with high traffic after that I knew that is a thing that can be made on the kernel side! But it is just me!

I just don't want you to feel like we are all ungrateful idiots who just sit around all day and whine that this and that is not perfect while you bust your as* to make us happy.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bcote311:
hopefully whatever reverts are done don't affect the incredible battery life i was getting on r34. not sure if that was due to any of the caf stuff or not but it was by for the best ever for me. thank you franco for your work on this kernel. running it on both my n5 and n7 2013.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Laggalot:
my audio glitches come from something that is not this kernel alone .... before my n5 i had the s4 rooted, aosp rom and ktoonsez kernel and even there with my exact same audio settings (v4a and poweramp) i sometimes had audio, lags if i may call them so ..... its not stuck neither does it only play on one side, its just that sometimes( every hour or so) the audio makes a loud screech noise for about half a second (sometimes multiple times) and i also can not reproduce it

R32 works with encryption on N5 (stock kitkat 4.4.2, rooted, twrp 2.7)

R34 & R35 encryption will cause the phone to not turn on or be response after it goes into deep sleep. I would have to force reset (power+voldown). Stops working when "Syncing filesystems" appears in kmsg log. Franco isn't sure whats causing the it yet [related post]. Hopefully he can't figure it out since I would love to have the few features of R33-35 to work.

How did you get franco kernel to work with your N5? Which version do you have installed?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] elite_gamer04:
R35 Auto Brightness still clashing bad with Lux, is there a way to be able to disable it and stick after reboot?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] granets:
Yeah I get those too every now and then, but they are not as frequent and I don't think they are kernel related. More like something on the music player side, or maybe something more general.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] VoluntaryMan:
Just make an init.d script to run the command at boot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] chikimonke:
Not sure if it makes you feel better or worse, but I was one that was experiencing BT disconnects earlier, and things have been rock solid and otherwise super snappy on r35.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Hi,

Yes, I guess you have init.d script support? Create an init.d script:

#!/system/bin/sh
#disable backlight_dimmer

echo 0 > /sys/module/lm3630_bl/parameters/backlight_dimmer

Or see in attachment,

remove the .zip extension

and put the script in /system/etc/init.d folder, set the permissions to rwxrwxrwx (all with a file explorer) and reboot.

:)

I can confirm that using Viper4Android and installing the Super Quality Audio driver fixes the sound clipping on the right channel for me. I have my volume cranked to max and haven't had any sound issues since. I'm not sure why this worked for me though.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bigknowz:
Screech / Zap noise

Tried to figure out the screech sound - more like a zap for me - and no luck playing with settings in r33 / 34. Happens during radio handoffs between Mobile / Wifi / Airplane mode. Flashed faux and less audio issues, but having scrolling lag / stutters. Looking forward to rebuilt franco, almost feels like I'm being unfaithful.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eustilou:
I agree with this suggestion also.

Please include the r34 setting. I need it for night reading.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tung_meister:
No, it definitely goes off completely. I've checked in a pitch black room and there is 0 light coming from the display.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] semcosweeper:
I can say r34 and r35 were great for me. And even though I had screen glitching when I first flashed 35 I haven't had it again. And I also don't want you to feel like I and the rest of us are ungrateful. You do great work and we're lucky to have you improving our phones. Thanks for all you do for the community.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fbf2201:
This morning bluetooth seemed to be fixed, but this afternoon I had the same disconnection with my car system again, as in r33 and r34. :(
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] donwhall70:
I'm running stock 4.2.2 with xposed framework, twrp 2.7, r35, and encryption enabled of course. I didn't do anything special, it just seems to work.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neriamarillo:
You're work is awesome! Were here to fully support you!

I did found something (which could be an isolated case on my device). The thing is that when I flash anything from r33-r35 my auto rotate and all other sensors do not work. However if I flash from r32 back down everything works. I can't stay on anything higher than r32 because even the GPS won't work. I don't know if maybe its something merged after r33 but I'm just letting you know in case someone else has this. I know it's not happening on your device but I'm looking for the problem so that I can fix it and be happy to use your latest updates. I'm missing out!! :(

You probably still want to add a brightness minimum option through FKU since there is a lot of variability. For me, the left side of the screen is still darker than the right side, though no longer flickers.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] EmperorX:
Check out an app called twilight. Can dim the screen as much as you want. You can also adjust a red tint so that you do not get eye strain / mess up your melatonin production while you are reading in bed.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Sn00ky:
Minimum brightness on R35 results in a completely dark screen. :/
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
"I need it" - no disrespect but that's one of the worse things one can say to me. Maybe that feature comes, maybe not. I have more important things to do right now. Just disable the backlight dimmer if you don't want it, the command is posted every page.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] VoluntaryMan:
He's not saying he wants it disabled, he wants it even dimmer (r34 level). r35 is perfect for me, BTW. No bugs and stellar battery life.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Momotani-Hitoshi:
4.2.2 or 4.4.2? Hmm, I've tried it on two different N5s and still the have issue with R34 & R35 with encryption. I don't use Xpose framework wonder if that makes a difference.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tylerdurden83:
I love this, and I hope that you'll stay away from most of the caf patches.

Stock kernel is rock solid, no panic whatsoever, no bt disconnects, right earplug issues etc.

Sure, compared to franco stock sucks at battery life, and stock colors aren't that awesome either.

What would be awesome is a franco kernel with basically only your own changes, so you know exactly where to look if any issue will arise.

For example, I'd love your way better governor and tunables on top of stock, as that is way too aggressive.

Basically your own magic + myfluxi gamma interface + some optimizations here and there (maybe the parameter that you altered to reduce wlan_rx_wakelocks, or the lower screen voltage?) would have all the pros of stock and of the current franco, minus the cons. Yes, battery life without the post r32 caf patches won't be as maxed out, but we should draw the line somewhere, it was already pretty amazing, and it's not worth the mess that the caf merges caused in terms of audio issues etc, at least imo.

Those that still want to squeeze more battery just have to stop being cheap, buy your per app mode app / fku, and they should be fine.

My brightness so low my wife don't know I'm on my phone at night like a boss :thumbup::cool:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] netjunkie51:
I still have some Bluetooth issues with r35. Losing connection when deep sleeps. It's still shown as connected but not working. But it's a lot better than with r34.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Well I can't please everyone.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] chrisch91:
Same here. At lowest level it is cometly dark. This wasn't so on r34
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
I hear what your saying but when you can get 5 hours SOT on data hardly any WiFi, actually using the phone all that time ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] graffix31:
complete opposite for me. r34 was black at lowers brightness and r35 is just right.

thanks for all your work.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] amphi66:
On YOUR particular hardware. Certainly not on mine.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] chrisch91:
Strange.. My screen is also flickering at lowest level.

I have installed viper4android on r35. Do I need to re-install the drivers after updating to r35 kernel?

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tylerdurden83:
Many ppl posted even more screen on time pre r33 tho... It'd be interesting if you could try to simulate the same usage of those screens but running r32, imo it won't dramatically change
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] occtec:
[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] just as others have mentioned before when my screen goes to sleep as it dims I find that the left side of the screen is darker then the other. I have tested on both stock and custom ROM, just some feedback NOT complaining, appreciate all your time and effort. Cheers
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Kernel cleanup is finished. I'm going to take a look into that backlight dimmer code, the display is definitely too low when it dimms.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Enddo:
i agree. please be sure to keep those CAF patches in. i have no problem staying on r35 if franco decides not to. but from r30 to r35 they've added an hour and a half to two hours of screen time to my device. i would prefer to keep those :p
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Splder:
with a otg cable connect your xbox controller to your phone and you can use your controller to play supported games/emulators

Xbox 360 or xbox one? Please say one! Lol
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Splder:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Most likely 360, there are no One controller drivers for Linux AFAIK, but I'll search upstream just in case.

I want to flash franco kernel for the first time, but I have a question. I am on rooted stock nexus 5 ARM runing latest bionic build i found in the xda forum, and i only have one mod: speaker volume boost from this popular mod on the xda forums, where i flash the zip: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2532788

My question: now should i flash a file that returns that returns speaker nexus attributes to normal before flashing franco?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
When you say completely fresh, you mean you started off with a stock kernel and then went through all the commits you've added up until r35 to see which ones to add in? Because those are hella a lot of commits :o damn.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Tbh probably doesn't make much difference if you don't own the paid fku app. If you do own the app then I'd suggest revert your mod because there's a built in speaker, headphone booster, gain etc but you need the app to control those interface.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yes. I went through 45 pages of commits, had to read a lot of code lol

Hopefully, when we get CM, this kernel will be compatible. The Nexus 4 scene turned into a nightmare recently with kernel development.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Mine is at home charging while I do a 12 hour shift
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] shreddintyres:
Nothing to do with kernel development and everything to do with CM effing things up by switching over to a purely CAF base. Why they decided to go CAF on Nexus devices which have full AOSP available makes no sense to me, for other non nexus devices i can somewhat understand. The incompatibility between CM and FK have nothing to do with an error or change that Franco had made but with the changes CM made. If they continue making more changes to their code further deviating from AOSP i would **not** expect Franco to maintain multiple versions of his kernel just to support CM.

Just my 2 cents.

Yay, my Nexus 5 arrived, gonna go flash franco kernel :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] aeppacher:
I have to say, I am incredibly excited to move over to this thread from the att gs3 (too many devs with god complexes). You sound like a genuinely nice guy franco and it's people like you that are the reason I was able to start my own kernel from having no coding background here on XDA. I am buying your kernel app today (even thought I won't be able to use it til I get my device) just because I feel good developers like you should be supported.

Just out of curiosity, when you said we won't get a 3.4+ kernel, did you mean on kit kat or on the nexus 5 ever? I am just curious to your reasoning.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Batfink33:
Someone should personally drive to Franco and hand him an N5 so he can get started properly :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bokoy:

I just got home with my Nexus 5, time to unlock and get rooted. I'll be flashing Franco Kernel in a few.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Testraindrop:
Got mine also today, just unlocked bootloader as first thing :)

Franco kernel will follow shortly :)

Btw. anyone noticed that when you unlock the bootloader the green Bugdroid now has wobbly animated antennas? :laugh:

Nice small addition by Google (haven't seen it before, I could swear in previous versions the image was static)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PhantomGamers:
May I ask why? Flashing to the by-name version would add an additional layer of protection in case other people somehow work out magic like him, and Google lists that in the fstab... Is there a benefit to skipping that and flashing directly?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nexusmaniac:
What's the best way to root the nexus 5? Is it CF auto root?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PhantomGamers:
Personally I've always just fastboot flash'd a custom recovery and then flashed the superuser zip of my choice through there.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Testraindrop:

If you flash latest TWRP you will be prompted if you want to root + install SuperSU.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nexusmaniac:

Sorry, memory failed me haha i just remembered you had responded to someone who mentioned it (post 1511) went back and realized you said you didn't notice it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PresidentMcCain:
Interesting... fixing permissions did allow Antutu to finish running. However, I did notice a Toast message pop up during the test (21%, floating point) saying: "request failed". But that's it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Thermal-engine-hh as far as I know boosts voltages when the device is being throttled. It seems the device is rebooting due to lack of voltage during that floating point benchmark.

Headset -> sometime since 4.3 on this wcd9xxx driver these values work backwards, negative number increases the gain, positive number decreases the gain - I'll correct that sometime.

Both Headphones & Headset settings do not interfere with the Speaker, only this does:

echo X > /sys/class/misc/soundcontrol/speaker_boost

Why? That doesn't make much sense.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Now that is super weird o.o
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PresidentMcCain:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] persiansown:
Because you're breaking the calibration for the worse on both panels. You can't subjectively do color accuracy especially when the two are different.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I understand your point, which is valid, but I'm not doing any color accuracy. I'm experimenting and this is what looked better on my eyes and I shipped, I couldn't care less about accuracy, if my eyes like it I use it. Now the user feedback was tremendous, and 90% enjoy the move vivid colors & a little extra saturation, but this will all be configurable when I finish decoding the gamma tables which will hold a couple days, I'll be busy tomorrow with Android unrelated stuff.
