I posted a while ago about tethering issues and it seems that after a complete wipe and flash with the 4.4.1 update of Cata, it now works. Thanks for your replies!

Anyway, a more relevant topic, I noticed that my phone has gotten a lot warmer during normal use (on T20) where it didn't in previous builds of this kernel. Were there changes on the thermal throttling max temp? Has anyone else noticed this?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Link3737:
I just had my phone get so hot it shut itself off and went into an endless boot loop (Which forcing a hard shutdown and waiting a bit to cool off fixed).

Happened while I was debugging a high fidelity 3D application.

Not going to jump to conclusions about the kernel yet as I've read a few articles that mention this device getting hot playing games.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] radical86:
Here you go. Only thing was underclocked to 1728 on boot.

From the looks of it, most of you are undervolting by 25 or 50?

What effect does this have?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Technecium:
Less draw on the battery.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nbsss:
Runs cooler, no effect on battery
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Zyphur:
So phone doesnt get as hot + slightly better batt life?

Is UV by 50 pretty much safe for everyone? Or is it similar to overclocking on a pc (2 same parts, 1 may not be able to oc as high as the other?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nbsss:
700mv for 300mhz is stable for me, and had been for over a month. Anything less causes a reboot, just don't set on boot until you're sure it's stable
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Code is the same as before but I'm always looking to improve my old code so I shall dig into thermal driver to see if there's anything I can do to improve it.

Weird, says the watchdog was triggered. I'll check, thanks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rayz93:
It really depends, I see some people can only go as far as -50mV on a PVS: 3 cpu binning.

My Settings:

-PVS: 3

-Android 4.4.1

-Franco Kernel r19

-300Mhz 700mV

-2263Mhz 950mV

-rest of the settings stock

Results:

-Been running 2 days with min:300Mhz, max 2265Mhz, no crash

-3 days with min:300Mhz, max:1036, no crash

-I also did a stress test with SetCPU for a good 15mins at min:300Mhz, max 2265Mhz, no crash
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] venturizhou:
Yes it totally depends upon your CPU Binning. Because if you are lower end of binning you have higher stock voltages.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IAreKyleW00t:
That's what I use. Haven't had a single problem with -50mV yet. Moving to -75mV causes the phone to instantly freeze and reboot however.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MrGriffdude:
Anyone getting the wake lock msm dwc3? I know it has something to do with qualcomms drivers
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Technecium:
Every device and users' habits are different. What people need is not to know others' settings but how to find the best personal settings. This is how I found my best settings.

1. Start with clock speeds. Find a range that can handle the apps you use. Run your heaviest apps or multiple apps you depend on. Games, video, etc. Reduce the max cpu clock speed until you notice things slowing down, lag, etc. Run it for a while. You might be surprised to find you don't need the higher clock speeds.

2. Do an across the board reduction -25, if it is stable, try another -25, and so on.

3. Use something like Better Battery Stats to see which cpu states your device uses most. Try reducing those by -5 until it crashes.

There are millions of combinations possible but this might help you find the best for you.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IAreKyleW00t:
-50mV is perfectly fine for me and I know the steps needed to UV and UC.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] foxdigital2k2:
I just purchased your app. Without you I would never get through the day with my phone. Running stock on 20 test and its running way better than stock kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jtwlbz:
Franco I think we should decrease vibrator strength to stock rate since 4.4 increased a lot anyways. 100% feels too strong.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bikeryder007:
You know you can change it don't ya? I set mine to 75 and it is just how I like it. Then again, anything feels better than stock which felt like a dying frog fart.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] alanwyl:
I don't agree with the max clock speed part. The max speed of the processor is usually not used constantly. It is only needed for a burst of power, like launching an app. If you lower the max speed, yes the app will still run smoothly, but launch times would be slower, and you could feel that it is less snappy.

The kernel has already taken care of that. If you really want to tweak clock speeds, it is more effective to lower the touch boost freq. This is ramping up the processor whenever you touch the screen.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] adichandra:
nice kernel. smooth performance and good battery life. been chatting a lot today. SOT 2 hours, battery is still at 63%. great work franco! :good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] zoltrix:
Mine is set to 100 which I believe is the Max.

I can actually feel it vibrate now. It's nice

Anyone play with the mic gain and whatnot ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
do it yourself
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Do u not own Franco app ? If not, vibration config in the market can get u back down to default
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
That won't happen. This kernel has always and will always ship with it at 100
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] grumphy:
During the overnight, went from 36 to 37% :D

My air charger is working! :cool:

i use -50mV set on boot, works fine
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Gorgenapper:
Hi, sorry if my question isn't clear enough... a little background on me. I'm relatively new to Android, having only had my Galaxy S4 Active for a couple of months. My understanding is that the Nexus 4 Color Control app only works because franco's kernel provides a way for his apps to do stuff on the device (due to Google locking stuff down, or something).

So if a franco kernel for the Nexus 5 is incoming, what you're saying is that when it's here we'll all be able to install it and use franco's apps (especially Color Control) to do stuff on the Nexus 5, right? :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] i860:
I am on pringles... and no option to set on boot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] zephiK:
Long press the menu and then you'll see a set on boot pop up.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] 75markus:
ok, i´ll try explain again, there´s already a franco kernel, testbuild 7 atm, it works, but most of the features like color control, blabla are not yet implemented. color control will be added for sure i guess, but Francisco hasn´t got his N5 yet, which he needs for coding and debugging

you are right about the app, it only works because the kernel supports it ...

we all have to be patient at the mom, and hope that francisco gets his device soon :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Gorgenapper:
Thank you... I can't wait. I mean, the color accuracy of the Nexus 5 is good as it is, but I think I would like to calibrate its whites to be a little less yellow.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] i860:
Thank you!

ps

Test7 is the first one I've tried. It appears to have helped reduce %/hour drain by a fair amount. Still preliminary for me but sfsg.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RussianBear:
I'm sure it has been mentioned before, but can't wait for some Franco speaker magic on this one :) my alarm didn't wake me up the other day, had to rely on my biological clock instead.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] LaboDJ:
Franco I managed to compile your kernel with linaro 4.8 toolchain.

I own the device and it boots up! :good:

I think Linaro version of your kernel will come later, now I want to help you testing your kernel.

If i can do anything for you let me know.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
I'm sorry to ask but what are the pro's and con's of having it compiled with linaro 4.8 toolchain? Why doesn't franco do it?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] noneabove:
... Well this is embarrassing... Thanks!!

---------- Post added at 05:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:08 PM ----------

linaro 4.8 toolchain has the potential to cause instability, the problem with it is that it has the chance to increase the size of objects, and if suddenly the objects are too large for the CPUs cache size, it'll crash
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nexusmaniac:
Care to share the .img? :D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Testraindrop:
hm Franco next time you should pickup the device yourself from Germany :)

Germany is nice you know, a little road trip is faster than DHL it seems...

btw. whats the status page saying, has it even reached the final distribution point?

Can't wait for more of your magic :D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Hey man nice to see you also been a while i hope your well

Without sounding too rude but it has been said over and over again. In fact just 1 or 2 posts above yours and I answered repeating Franco's answer to the very same question

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] domsch1988:
Alright, time for some screenshots concerning Battery Life. First of, i'm one of those, who start worrying about battery at around 25%. It's an old habbit from HOX times, where the first 75% bring you through nearly a day, when the last 25% are gone within an hour...

So the N5 took me by surprise a bit. I tried all evening killing it... Not intentionally, but i used it as normall with constantly checking tapatalk, some music and some photoing all evening. Now i'm tired of waiting for this thing to stop working and i took my results ;)

Settings used: UC 2 Ghz, UV -75mV, mostly manual brightness below 20%. Kernel v7, nothing fancy besides that. I didn't particularly burn battery, nor did i hold back. I used it as i would normally do, maybe a bit more...

So here goes:

Since i have a battery bank coming, in this state it's really useable for me and already miles ahead of what stock could do for me. I'm really stocked to see what franco will deliver when he actually gets this phone on hand. Till then, i'm really happy with the performance and see a bright future of improving performance ahead!

Thanks franco for delivering such quality work and not over-beta-testing on us but rather waiting for your own test devices and delivering rock solid features to us!

regards, Dominik

I wasn't being condescending. My apologies if feel I insulted your intelligence.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
Hey franco even after clearing FKU app data FKU it still keeps showing up as number 2 in android battery use and Im not to sure if its affecting battery at all or much but im pretty sure it shouldn't be number 2 on the list and hasnt been that I remember. Right now Im sitting at 80% at about 3h 52m up time with 1h 23m of SOT and FKU is second place and says CPU total is 12m. Is that at all normal?

There seems to be no wakelocks from FKU so Im just really confused as why this started happening. I do have some per app modes running and thats the only process running in the background from FKU.

And does anyone else have this issue btw?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
It's not an issue. You are getting great battery. There's nothing to fix.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
Well I just figured he'd want to see why the app would read such high battery use when it probably isnt or isnt cause that wasnt an issue before beta. So maybe not a major issue but it may be bug and isnt that what us beta testers are for?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
Hello! By the looks of your stats your battery is doing just fine :) I get the same stats as you. And my battery is pretty good. I end off the day with 6-7hrs SOT and 13-14hrs uptime. Maybe the app showing is just a bug. Don't worry about it just use the device. Like Franco says we often worry so much about the technical details of things that we forget to enjoy the device. My gf has the same phone and she loves and enjoys the phone and is great on battery with her usage. Battery is great for me too but I don't enjoy my device like she does because I'm always after the optimal settings, Roms, tweaks, etc. Let's all try to follow this advice. I admit I shouldn't be giving this advice to anyone because I don't even follow it myself... But I'd like to try and let's all start now :p.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Benchmarks are lower on 2.5GHz, not surprisingly, seems S800 generates too much heat and throttles like hell, kind of negates that commonly used argument that OC increases scores when you are being throttled to death that's assuming you can even finish the benchmark, most of the time it will reboot cause it can't handle it, so OC is only for the lucky few with good chips
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
Hahah yea I know battery life is on par I just wanted to inform him that the app is still doing that (if it is the app) because he asked me to clear FKU data and see if it still persisted when I mentioned this before!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
The thing is. You don't know what the app is consuming. You need better battery stats for that. That will actually show you what it's consuming. I can tell you from my tests that there isn't any bugs with the app killing battery.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
I agree with these other guys but Franco app not even showing in my battery stats , r u using android built in battery stats or 3rd party app ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
Yes yes I know that.. all Im just saying there is or may be a bug with the app causing it to show as a high consumer in android battery stats. I did mention that BBS did not show wakelocks but its still showing high use in battery stats even when it isnt.

---------- Post added at 12:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 AM ----------

It shows in android BS not in BBS or anything like that and my battery life is pretty much as usual so thats why Im mentioning the possible bug on how its reading higher in Android battery stats than it really is.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
Anyone with a PVS 2 able to get 3014 MHz stable? So far I have 2880 MHz running stable. I don't usually OC. Just testing this for the lols. And see how well my device can OC.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Ya mines not showing Franco at all there . maybe make a backup and wipe see if fixes it . if not u can just restore
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] 850T5m:
But how often do you stress the cpu to that point? I OC my cpu just for that random few seconds that it jumps up to 2.5ghz, not for it to stay at 2.5 for long consecutive times. In this case, I think it's useful to OC your processor. I don't really play games with my phone...maybe I just feel it smoother when it's a placebo lol

[MENTION=470754]Franco[/MENTION] just wondering, you said the ddr memory speed is boosted at 1.5ghz to it's next step, I assume it's boosted a few times depending at what speed the processor is at. So the question, with the new OCing that you implemented, does the ddr memory have another speed step in those new frequencies? (Basically does the memory get over clocked also?)

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
I find that hard to believe its STABLE that high, but raise your voltage for 3k and u might be able run it there for a lil before u fry it ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
I doubt there's anyone who can run 3GHz stable on this chip, its like a furnace when you play Beach Buggy Blitz on stock clocks imagine how hot it'd be at 3GHz per core or 12GHz full load. It'd probably reboot endlessly and force you to shut it off till it cools down, but I'm sure you can use it for browsing and simple tasks if your chip is good enough, though that defeats the purpose
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
No I agree 100% .ya gets a lil warm when playing games but if u have used some of the other kernels available ,Franco's is ice cold in comparison ;)

Shouldn't be names R then. It's confusing R meaning Release but it's only a test release. Rather call it T or B (Beta) something. So it's more obvious thats not a stable release.

[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] what do you think?

EDIT: Also it would be easier to know if people are talking about R20 as in test or R20 as in the actual release.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
