Sorry boss didn't know that was still needed after a reboot :o I simply read the readings after the bootup/franco app being given superuser permissions.

Is there any way to reset to "defaults", I didn't save the defaults before I started messing with them. I know restarting the phone will reset the values, but it would be handy to have a button to do so.

open greenify and manually hibernate them. alternatively, go to settings -> apps, then force close the app(s)

Greenify also has a Tasker plugin that you can use to Greenify apps whenever you want, I have mine set to force "Greenification" every time the screen turns off.

Lets make one thing perfectly clear; I'm a Linux systems expert, So I'm perfectly aware of the job the kernel does. But not all Kernels are the same, hence the question. But I'm new to Android. Therefore I asked a perfectly legitimate question. When I compile my Kernels on Linux I configure them to best suit my needs.

NOw, I know this kernel seems popular that's why I asked what are the benefits of using this over the stock kernel, i.e what tweaks have been made. Is it mainly for stability, speed or something else.

THere's absolutely no need for answers such as yours. You've clearly flashed 1 or 2 kernels and feel some sense of superiority. Asking questions is how we evolve in the tech world.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
You can look at the feature list and change log. Follow the link in my sig and that might answer some of your questions.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Diesel779:
Thank you, I appreciate your help.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] willgare:
Listen big shot if you're such an expert why don't you read up on the kernel before posting such novice questions. Its not difficult to read through the posts or indeed refer to the learners lounge before you post questions that don't only irritate me but the majority of the community on here.

Take ginger breads advice, read up then come back and ask something a little more meaningful.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] five40:
Love the stability and battery life on this kernel.

The only thing I observe when using Franco kernel vs ElementalX or Faux is that my speaker volume seems to be lower.

Any solution or work around available for this?

Keep up the great work Francisco!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] willgare:
There is a fix you can flash don't gave the link but its in the forum just search n5 audio fix

No. Speaker volume is the same as on stock.

I've now read up on the kernel. Asking questions shouldn't offend anyone unless if course they have 'Issues' Novice question? ASking what the advantages of this kernel is over the stock?? Are you kidding me. Irritate you? You don't seem to be a regular here at XDA. 13 posts in 4 years hmm... Real contributor you are aren't ya lol.

Anyway I've got the info I need. This kernel indeed sounds fantastic, But I may have a go at compiling my own just for my specific needs.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] The Gingerbread Man:
Its possible they have boosted their own default values to be higher than the default. There's a setting to boost your speaker volume in the fku app. Its a worthwhile investment if you plan on staying with this one
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] cobyman7035:
u mean in the latest FKU app? or u mean using faux kernel PRO app? i know that app has color gamma, works on my nexus 7 FHD

nm: updated to latest FKU, now with color control

anyone have iphone5 type ish cool colors settings? thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
I'm not sure what your needs in particular are, but the great thing about everything being open is that you can pull Franco source, then trim it and tailor it to your specific needs.

His hotplug routine is amazing. You'll never want to use mpdecision again.

The latest Franco app beta has color control for the 5 in it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yorici:
Can anyone explain to me why just two values (nr1 and nr10) of 23 values are modified? I know those two have the most effect on gamma, but you can't simply leave the rest behind. If you have a look at the github page: The modifications made by Devin Kim do not just edit two values... The whole range is modified. The dataset of mag01 does the same.. It modifies all 23 values if needed, not two.

P.S. Franco, would you be so kind to have a look at my solution for fixing tints of yellow and boosting gamma?

i have to agree. i tested the unofficial apk and it didn't change anything.

i've read that people who had the update pushed to their device has had it reverted back. so people are assuming it was a bad update and that google pulled it to fix some more bugs. nothing is official yet. at least I haven't had it officially pushed to either of my 3 devices

these google play services wakelocks(NlpWakeLock and NlpCollectorWakeLock in particular) have always been hit or miss. that's why you see people in the wakelock thread talking about 'my phone has had great battery life but now all of a sudden i see this at the top'

this kernel does let you bring down the minimum brightness even more. but it has zero affect on auto brightness. stick with lux

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rajendra82:
The color control as implemented in FKU beta does not provide enough control, and at the same time provides some redundant controls as well. The most thorough analysis of color curves was done by mag01 in the gamma app thread, using a colorimeter. Unlike what faux123 recommends, here is how to properly control color on Nexus 5:

1. All 29 values matter, not just value in row 1 column 1, and row 2, column 5. Each controls the color curve for red, blue, and green at decreasing levels of intensity. Adjusting just 2 values on the curve is not effective.

2. Positive and negative values don't matter and should be kept the same, so there is no need for 46 settings for each color, just 23.

3. Adjusting white points affects the overall gamma. The reason faux123 got a gamma of 2.2 is because he dropped the value to 30. That is good, except this also drops the overall brightness and affects the color temperature along different intensity levels, because blue starts crushing at the low end when you drop white point below 32 and red starts clipping at the high end when you raise white point above 32. Therefore white point control is too coarse grained and has a limited range of effective values. It is better to keep the white point at 32 and adjust individual colors at 23 levels.

4. Due to whatever reason, the old app looks for a wrong path, and no longer works for franco kernels above r31.

5. To best manage color on Nexus 5, we need 70 points of control, not just the 7 the FKU currently provides, 3 of which are not effective and the other 3 do the exact same thing. The only control that FKU provides, that works well is White point, but it works in a narrow range of values, and has a negative effect on overall brightness.

TLDR: I am sticking with r31 and the app for color control for now, as it is the only way to have full control.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
You're wrong, I flashed r32 and it works -.-

About everything else you're right. As I said its a start, its not final. What really matters for me is user experience, I'm not seeing users adjusting 23 parameters for each type, besides it makes the UI look ridiculous. I'm gonna be reading feedback and adjust accordingly - that's why its a BETA version of FKU...

The interface is not final, its a start. I don't really want an interface with 23847238473487 input types on each row so for now that's what we got and I'll be evaluating the posts and see what else I can do to make it better.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rajendra82:
You may not want that, but that is the control level we need to adjust the whole curve, and not get banding. Read the mag01 posts for full explanation. Otherwise let's only have white point control. It works fine with limitations.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I'll say it again: the interface is not final and I'll adjust according the feedback received, its in the BETA channel! I've been following faux's free app feedback and 99% of the users have no idea what they are doing, they see a bunch of numbers, a bunch of boxes and just stare at it. I'd rather have something simple like this for now as a starting point. We'll see what happens in the next days based on all feedback collected.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Diesel779:
I'm more than capable of compiling my own kernel, but thanks. There's seems to be a certain element within XDA of a few members feeling the need bash people for no reason. It's good that there seems to be more XDA members actually willing to help, and therefore contribute.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rajendra82:
Kernel r32 does not work with the old app. It works with FKU, because FKU is smart enough to look for the changed path. Kernel r31 was the last one that worked with the old app, and it works fine for my needs, because the app provides me with control of all 23 parameters.

P.S. - I know it is beta, and that's why I am providing this feedback. I understand your reasons for not having 70 controls. The old app and r31 did, and I like to keep that ability. If FKU needs to stick with the limited user interface, maybe have a slider for each color that moves groups of registers up an down. Since we have 23 for each color, and mag01 testing showed that the first 4-5 are for near full color, and the last 4-5 are for near black colors, they don't matter so such. Registers in the middle affect a bigger range of values for each color. If we have things split into 4 or 5 groups for each color, with sliders for each group to be moved up and down, that might be a happy medium. There is also no need for a different slider for positive and negative polarity.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DryEagle:
Franco, is it possible that some presets will be included once the colour thing leaves beta?

e.g. you linked to this post with some sample values, but people are saying there are different screens so it doesn't always apply, i dunno, but would be nice to have presets to avoid the problem you're saying of people staring at a bunch of boxes not knowing what to put in them
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
The thing about different screens will never change. It doesn't matter whose values you use, people will always see slightly different results.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
Presets will come when the whole interface is ready. Franco can't start putting in presets when the interface is barely complete ya know? Some people have already posted a couple presets in the last 5 pages or so, try those out.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Diesel779:
Kid? How patronizing. I'm a 35 year old man with 15 years coding experience. Novice user? Oh please. Flashing ROM's, kernels and installing custom recoveries is something my 7 year old son could do.

My original question was a valid one. I asked what the benefits of using this kernel over the stock kernel where. That's not a novice question, it's just simple logic. But I get you. I've come across people such as yourself on many occasions. Followed a few tuts and consider themselves Gurus. Patronising people in an attempt to elevate their status within the given community. Only when you humble yourself will you truly learn.

Regards.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lndeed:
Would definitely like to see some means of adjusting all of the values. Using faux's settings results in some strange behavior. For example, when pulling out a slide out menu the dimming effect doesn't transition properly and instead sort of flickers. mag01's settings (with all values properly changed) do transition properly.

I see that it's already been mentioned, so I guess this just counts as an additional vote in favor of this approach.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DryEagle:
that's why i said "when the thing leaves beta" ;) i don't have access to beta builds anyway, but i'll certainly fiddle with it once it's ready, it's just that presets are nice if they're possible to add without much hassle
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Beauenheim:
Just wanted to say that stock and Franco kernel with gravity box is THE best combination. Battery life and all. Looking forward to color control. My screen is just ever so slightly yellow tinted.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
My bad. And ya would be nice. People should start posting more presets now though once people get the hang of the color control.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DryEagle:
better battery life, is the main goal, while maintaining performance and reducing heat generation. plus if you get FKU you can tweak values really easily for cpu and such, allowing you to get even better battery/performance ratio. other kernels might offer this too, but franco's is built specifically for this task
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
You're my favorite new addition to the community.

With your coding experience I'm sure you'll be able to bring a lot to the table. It's always great to have some fresh eyes and ideas.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Now that's good feedback. I have a couple things in mind already. Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Testraindrop:
Franco, maybe you can just put an "Expert" tab into the color settings with all the possible values, so that people who know what they are doing can try to tweak everything? :)

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AGiLiT:
+1 as someone who thinks having the ability to adjust the entire curve is what ultimately is necessary to achieve the most accurate settings, but if franco.kernel works with faux's app, then that gives people the ability to do just that.

I definitely understand Franco's desire to stick with the KISS principle. It really is very similar to what happens when you buy a TV. You can fiddle with some basic settings and options that are available through the TV and adjust the picture to your own personal taste, or you can have a professional technician come in with a colorimeter and calibrate your set to exact specifications.

Most people are happy with the first option; others just can't live with possibility that there is some Holy Grail or another out there just beyond their reach. Whatever floats your boat: For instance, I'm a flash and forget it user of Franco's kernel, but it would drive me nuts if I thought I could achieve a more perfect screen display. :silly:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Diesel779:
THanks for the info :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
[MENTION=2752629]rajendra82[/MENTION] I had a similar thought to yours for the interface. I agree that having all of those values is cumbersome and most users will not experiment or take the time to change them all. But I do also agree that more values need to be changed to achieve the colors people will want. Looking at the posts mag01 has in the gamma app thread, it seems that the values change very consistently in groups. I believe if we (Franco) could somehow get these values into 3 groups, we could edit the value for each each group and have it represent the curve. i.e. Maybe something along the lines of changing the scale differently, instead of putting in each exact value, we could set the change for each group. I'm thinking have it set to where you can change the whole first group to effect a positive or negative 5 change.

I'm not sure how clearly I'm explaining my meaning here. Let me know guys and I'll try to articulate it better.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yorici:
Dude you should check out my post :D I have combined all the 23 values to 1 slider (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49423273&postcount=878) And btw: altering a group by the same amount will lead to distortions. You need to move the curve proportionally to maintain good banding.

I'm sorry:P I thought too fast then. Although I use your app now to import my 23*6 values from excel:D Have you looked at my solution? It does combine all 23 values in slider:)

Anybody made file of mag01's settings for fku? I am not getting what he means by different column and rows.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JNewms:
Yes, I realize that if we changed all 23 values by, say, plus 6, that it would not work correctly. That's why I'm thinking maybe if we put them into a few groups, and changed the groups independently, we might have success. If you look at the trends of the values, you could group the amount they change into 3 or probably 4 groups.

I'm not a screen professional, but my math background is trying to see what the simple solution is. I could be totally wrong, but want to help.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hospitalbed:
Can you share your file you import in FKU?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yorici:
I would like to make a note here: If you rearrange all the values like mag01's post, it all makes sense. There is a big difference between value 12 and 13 because of that. (post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48279955&postcount=485). If anyone were to make groups: Take 1-12 and 13-23. But I think it will lead to banding..
