Can you like make a custom UV settings that's decent for all types of PSV? I mean your preferred UV settings. [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION]

Oh so its for cores 3 and 4, makes sense thanks

Im always out of my 8 thanks limit lol
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DerItaliener:
I anticipate the answer and in short, it's unfortunately: no.

Undervolting is nothing you can generalize, even if he would undervolt his device (although I think I remember Mr. Franco saying, that he does use stock voltages) it would mean nothing to you.

Every Chip is different, even within PVS bins there are no two chips which are the same. Some can handle more UV, some less, you have to test it out by yourself for your own device. It's not as time consuming as it seems, and when you found a setting which runs stable for you, you can tick set on boot and forget about it. ;)

I think I remember somewhere in the Learner Lounge a post about how to test out your devices UV capabilities, this will be an optimal starting point for you to get to know your N5 and to find the perfect values for yourself. Good luck with it!:victory:

I know that.. should have mentioned it maybe but I was referring to if 3g takes significant battery juice than wifi.. cuz all im doing is some whatapp facebook and a bit youtube.. no games or anything heavy.. and it's always just 4 sot.. (I already -50uv)

so im wondering if any of you guys use only 3g data > whats your battery life like

The people that were experiencing FKU disappearing from the homescreen after an update is available on play store, did you also install GravityBox? I noticed this in the changelog for 2.8.4: "AppLauncher: fix missing apps after reboot on some devices" and its fixed for me :)

Excellent job on this kernel. 50% battery used, with 3 hours and 15 minutes of SOT.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mhardyman:
I use Magic_battery 2.0, 20+ hrs on games and tons responding to the simple folk.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jetrii:
Insanely happy with the battery life.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Sn00ky:
Franco, I set the CPU temp notif. in FKU and now when unticking it, it's still there. Can you please have a look and if someone can check it out? Sure reboot or force stop will fix it, but it shouldn't be like that I think. :) Many thanks for the awesome kernel!!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ensifolk:
Is there any way on how to apply Franco's ' Cooler Colors ' that this kernel started with earlier ago? I tried using Faux Gamma Open App, but even with the recommended settings, and many other users' settings, it does not match the AWESOME Cool profile originally found in Franco's old nightlies, as well as ElementalX ' Cooler Colors ' tweak
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] suchevent:
before people start coming around with pitchforks, let me save you some grief. the short answer is no. if you want an explanation, please do a search. this topic has been discussed countless times and causes other users to have a mini heart attack every time it's brought up :)

I am having bit of an issue with the kernel. r24 to be specific. the phone does not want to die for some reason. close to 4 hrs sot and 9 hrs of uptime and I still have 57% left. anyone know what could be causing this? :)

all jokes aside, the kernel is performing phenomenally. thx francisco. bought the app to support you and have absolutely no regret.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SplitCold:
How do you get close to 4 hrs sot and 9 hrs of uptime and still have 57% left????

I'm at 54% with 1 hour and 14 mins of SOT with 18 mins of voice calls and no music.

How do you guys get such long SOT?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ensifolk:
To be honest I did a search under ' Cooler Colors ' And I didn't find a very relevant answer, perhaps my search keywords were not really that good. Anyway, Im not here to cause any confusion. As a matter of fact, the exact reason causing you this lovely battery life is what made me ask this question :) LOL - I don't want to give up on R24's beast battery life, but I really miss the old Cooler Colors. Think we gonna have to wait a little more ! Anyway, happy flashing :) Peace.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Molitro:
I'm laughing my ass off.

I've been all afternoon / evening doing low load stuff. Tapatalk, reading cómics, little WhatsApp, solving a couple sudokus, reading a couple of greader feeds, that kind of thing.

It came a point when I was just using the phone for the sake of watching how much the battery could take. And by now I'm just laughing at the drain on non stressful usage.

This is f***ing ridiculous, seriously.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] manny05:
Woah.. Mind sharing your settings and rom lol
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Molitro:
Wtf indeed.

I mean, it's unrealistic usage for a "mobile" phone, wifi + 2G, but c'mon, there's just so much screen a 2300 mah battery can take.

In any case, in realistic usage, with 3g, times of bad signal, etc, you still squeeze 6 ir 7 hours of sot easy.

So Franco, kudos, not much more to say.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Couldn't help it, made a post on my G+ about it: https://plus.google.com/u/0/+FranciscoFranco1990/posts/aySrXk6YUmX
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Molitro:
xD

I did read earlier of a user who said that he gets around 3 hours sot or so for every 25% (if I'm not remembering it wrong) , so it's consistent.

It's just that today I've had a set of conditions that had me using the phone basically on its lowest drain possible.

For the guys asking for my settings, I'm running it stock with you're usual - 75 across the board UV plus 650 for the 300 step.

Also I raised the boost_pulse duration to 500, cause, although I think the difference is barely noticeable if at all, the impact on battery can't be so notice either, so what the hell.

On the rom department, I'm running purity and art, but more than that, I think the only noticeable thing is that I don't use gnow, so I have it disabled, along with the location sharing for google.

Other than that, I haven't done anything special.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] qbanlinxx:
Have you used Gsam or BBS to see what's draining your battery?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ashanmaril:
Here's what I was looking for. Yeah, that will make a difference.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dark_ente:
Brightness 0%, only reading books perhaps?

I was able to achieve outstanding battery on my nexus 4 when I read books at night, I guess you must be doing the same
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Molitro:
Disabling that pretty much kills any wakelock from the os itself.

Best thing I did for the idle drain, to be honest.

Don't think it can have a particularly big impact when the phone is actually being used thought.

I've been doing several things, but yeah, for all intents and purposes it has been basically the screen showing a pretty static image.

Also the brightness is in auto, but since I'm indoors and it's been night for most of the time, it has been over minimum a very little time of the total. It has gone up a couple of times, when there was still daylight, or when I was with my back to a light bulb, but most of the time, minimum auto brightness.

That's why I'm saying it's not realistic usage, but it still has been a pretty funny thing to watch, that's why I had to share it.

Edit: for example now the usage has gone up mlstly cause all the typing (and it's haptic feedback), and the ramping up of the cpu with it.

I'm now at 38% with 7 hours 10 minutos.

But now, this last hour would be a realistic drain, a d it's still a 13% for an hour and 10 minutes. It really is excellent.

Swiftkey'd from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BTT8:
Seriously, how are you guys getting so much sot??

I'm at 18 hours standby with about 47% battery left and only 1 hr and 38 minutes sot. Running cataclysm, r24, uv-75 all across and 300 at 625. Google now on, brightness on auto, wifi on, high accuracy mode and autosync with Gmail every 20 minutes with Tasker, all other syncing off. I browse greader a d use Chrome sporadically, watch YouTube sporadically, and browse xda more than anything. Google location sharing and history is off.

Basically, I'll get a ~20% drain every hour. I guess that would translate to 5 hour screen time then...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dark_ente:
the sot is unrealistic. You can achieve the same if you turn off most of the background services and auto-sync, set your brightness to 2-3%, google now off, reading books and light browsing - which doesn't translate to real world usage.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] kenkiller:
You know, sometimes they just switch the screen on and play music or use it as a screen saver. That pretty much translates to good SOT. :D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] OptimusVDarwin:
I keep getting bug reports. How do I figure it what it is?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Rxpert:
Its absolutely real world usage for some.

I'd argue its steeped in more reality than benchmarking
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PigFire:
well, this is my guess maybe you set screen off to maximal 30 minutes, and you let the screen is always ON :D so the SOT will count that. :p

---------- Post added at 09:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

And how to get the SOT so much is:

1. Set the screen off to maximal 30 minutes or never sleep

2. Set your cpu clock to minimum

3. Let your screen is ON and don't touch the screen

4. If your screen is off just wake up and let the screen on :laugh:

5. You will get the screen on time very much :p
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Molitro:
Well... You have a point. I mean, I don't turn off auto sync, but I don't have much in the first place. Don't use it for tweeter, which I just update when I open, and I don't use Facebook. So my auto syncing consists of the whole Google account , with my 4 email accounts redirected to Gmail, but that doesn't drain anything, and the weather update through beautiful widgets whenever I turn on the screen.

Other than that, just WhatsApp, which again doesn't drain.

On the auto brightness, low, but again , nothing that wouldn't happen at night every day.

And in the usage itself I did little less than any given day. I jus t didnt watch any videos or played heavy games.

So, all in all, fairly usual usage for me, with the exception of having been using the phone continously, which obviously brings up the total screen time.

[MENTION=5450968]PigFire[/MENTION]

Nothing like that.

It all started cause I was feeling like listening to a couple of albums. So I started playing them on the computer, and then, just to do something while I listened to the music (which ended up being a musical evening) , I started solving sudokus in super sudoku.

That means a lot of static image, which equals lots of sot. It does involve quite a lot of screen touching, though, so the cpu isn't just idling at 300 for minutes at a time.

But there was plenty of Tapatalk (which back in the day was a drainer, but now isn't), a couple cómics, checking tweeter... It's mostly reading and static image, but then again it is pretty realistic usage in my cae, with the exception of having been indoors on wifi.

So, unrealistic sot, but no so much as it may seem. So every day I obviously don't get this, but I get more than 50 percent of the sot I've gotten today factoring in all the idling in between, the bad signals and/3G, etc...

Edit: final count, 8:20 sot at 25%, and I'm off to bed.

Good night :p

Swiftkey'd from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dark_ente:
by real world usage, I mean nobody would continuously read books and forum browsing 6 hour straight at night, 2 hours is my limit already

For these 2 hours, I have a 10% per hour drain while on N4, so I figure I can achieve the same battery drain on N5 as [MENTION=3076718]Molitro[/MENTION]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nmlssit:
I am very happy with these settings on r24

CPU Max: 1574 MHz

GPU Max: 320 MHz

Voltages: -75MV, 300MHz > 625mV

Others are stock.

But i noticed app scrolling on Facebook and Twitter is a bit laggy, what can i touch in order to improve it?

I just got back from ART since 4.2.2 was released, i wanted to try battery life on Dalvik with Qualcomm optimized libs :D

bootloop

hi all,

want to ask something about the kernel. i jumped from elementalx 0.18 to franco latest kernel. after flashing franco kernel, i getting bootloop. already try to clear the dalvik cache n cache. the bootloop still happen. after 2nd time reflashing the franco kernel, still getting bootloop. i have to flash back elementalx kernel and the phone is boot as normal. anything i miss before i'm flashing franco kernel? or something different between franco and elementalx kernel setup?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] miketn:
Didn't you read Franco's changelog? That was added in r24; you have to toggle it and set it to boot on FKU. Gotta say, Franco has definitely outdone himself.

Jokes aside, this kernel is definitely great. Haven't really noticed any real performance issues/differences from r23 nor has the battery life when actually using the phone changed all too much (not complaining, my average SOT is around 5-6 hours with 3g/LTE for half the day when I'm at work). Although I can see a drastic difference when idling, got 3% drain overnight with all syncs on and whatnot. Keep up the great work Franco!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vsot13:
Before you flash Franco's, clear data on app, which you control Elementalx. Nothing else I can thing of will cause bootloop. Good luck.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neocryte:
I have to say - and maybe I am in the minority here - but I am getting nowhere close to these numbers. I get 2-2.5 hrs of screen time with 3g/LTE all day long. This is with r24 on stock settings. Add in an hour or more of voice calls, and that drops to 1.5 hrs SOT. Not sure if I am doing something wrong, but hearing people get 5-6 hrs SOT makes my jaw drop.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] faiz2036:
i'm using trickster MOD. Means that i need to clear data from this app??

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jlevy73:
Really like r24, strangely enough though I get significantly better battery life with stock kernel. With the same apps and same usage patterns on stock I get drainage of 1.6%/hr versus r24 2.5%/hr. BBS doesn't show anything unusual so I really can't deduce why the difference in battery life is that significant. As always, thanks for your hard work!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] m3lover1:
Try one more thing, dirty flash your rom and try installing r24 again and see if that fixes it
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] site1ca:
I see something similar... I don't remember r23 or earlier showing 0 bars for my mobile signal quite so often... Is there anything else I can check short of reverting to r23 and watching the signal more closely?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ulver:
I'm trying out r24 as well. I will have to agree, I've had the best battery/performance from the stock kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Enddo:
everyone's usage is different. no one kernel/rom/etc is the best for everyone. try things out and use the one you think is best

What does target_latency do? Its found in io controls
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gidgiddonihah:
I think everyone here was right and it was just the network as I haven't had a problem today so far (knock on wood).

That's odd as I have have pretty much double the battery life over full stock and I haven't even touched voltage yet. Though of course things are different with different people's usages. No performance issues. Stock ROM with Franco has been awesome so far.

One weird thing is that sometimes the animation for the unlock seems like it's been fast forward by 50x. Almost no animation whatsoever. Only happens on occasion and isn't a problem at all. Just strange. Wonder what's causing it.

Edited to fix a Tapatalk bug making my text appear in the quoted post.

Google it, I don't know what it does doubt anyone knows without Googling.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] miketn:
If you are comfortable, you may want to try to UC and UV. Test things out, make sure its not set on boot so if it crashes you know it wont be stable. I'm using stock settings with only UV. I don't know what else to say that hasn't been said already. Try checking your wakelocks, see what apps are killing your battery and try out greenify to hibernate some apps. Other than that I don't know what else I'm doing differently, I suppose everyone's experience is different.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BTT8:
My normal real world usage - Google now on, location sharing and history off, Tasker sync every 20 minutes for Gmail, uv - 75 across the board with 625 for 300. No underclock.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] OptimusVDarwin:
What app do you have to manually sync email?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BTT8:
Tasker and Synker (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.afterhoursdevelopers.android.synker&hl=en) to have gmail pull email every 20 minutes. I also set up a task to sync all my google stuff every time I'm connected to wifi and plugged in. Nifty apps. I think this is what makes android so great. Makes me wonder why I ever used an iPhone back then...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] remydlc:
Since everybody is posting their real life usage, here is mine... see images attached... in short:

Total uptime 1 day,14hours & 40+mins. So that is 2 days without charging.

Total of 2 hours worth of phone calls.

Total of 4 hours of SOT.

10 hours with no WiFi.

Google account syncing pretty much everything, G+, gmail, photos, keep, music, some Google now because I only had the GPS/location on some time, etc.

One exchange account with Touchdown. Weather widgets, TSF Launcher with animation.

I mostly used Instagram, Feedly, Tapatalk, Google plus, bit of YouTube, emails and some Amazon shopping around.

Best battery I have gotten with any phone/kernel. That was back with R23 last friday. It seems better with R24. I wish FF can port his kernel to the S4.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] 2weiklang:
Got excessive battery life with your kernel as well, Franco. Excellent job!

Tried taking the kernel to the limit in terms of performance not mentioned here that often: streaming movies. Had some issues there yesterday while watching Google movies, on a 100Mbit network on the N5: artifacts and sometimes stuttering.

Tried parallelly on my work's Note 3: no issues.

No UV or reduced max performance on my N5. Any hints what settings to change to get a smoother experience even on that end? :D

have you tried turning it off and then back on?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tachyon1986:
Hi,

If you're mostly browsing on 3G, then believe me your battery will drop like flies. If you expect to browse for 4 hours on 3G , then it's very difficult to achieve , radio usage is a real battery killer. On the other hand, if you do a bit of browsing , then do something else...like play an emulator , you can easily breach 4 hours.

Here's what I suggest to cross 3+ hours of SOT with 3G on:

1) Turn off Location Services , or at least set it to Device Only. Battery saving mode is a hog with 3G. Also, ensure you disable Location Reporting and Location History. If you have Facebook app, make sure you disable the Location settings in the app too.

2) Google Now has to go off , this thing is a huge battery hog. Hotword detection is fine.

Most of the people who do get 5-6 hours of SOT are using a mix of Wifi and 3G , so don't worry about those stats. I managed to breach 5 hours of SOT with only 3G on . Here's my setup with FKU:

CPU throttled to 1958 Mhz

Undervolted to -75 mV

That's all I did , now as to how I achieved 5 hours of SOT - I spent roughly 2 hours browsing reddit and other sites on 3G. The remaining 3 hours were dedicated to playing Chrono Trigger with the SuperGNES emulator (3G was on all this time).

Edit: Screenshots attached for r24. This one has 3 hours of SOT, but the phone hasnt been charged overnight.

Hello Feliz Natal Franco and Merry Christmas to you all.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tylerdurden83:
Device only means gps, that will be 1 extra chip turned on, a very expensive one too, not a good suggestion imo.

Also if you disable both Location reporting and location history you block every single app that uses google location services from working, which includes but isnt limited to all the gapps like maps, many widgets like beautiful widgets or event flow calendar widget, etc, so in that case you might be asking yourself why have location on in the first place
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nexusmaniac:
Very strange, I'm on r24 just playing music, my phone felt warm so I had a look at system monitor. Don't know what would cause this.
