OK I'm gonna go flash hope I don't brick

Via my N€×us 5 on XDA premium

ok im booted back to where it says android is upgrading 226 apps, takes so long!

from the bootloader screen i chose to restart recovery mode but it just sat there with black screen i got worried! so i just power down + volume down, and went into restart mode

i didn't get a chance to install SU or go into TWRP yet or wipe cache

is it ok if i installed the twrp version for the nexus 7FHD or does it matter?

edit: stupid me i flashed the n7 twrp version, no wonder it was a black screen after , gotta flash the right n5 hammerhead one
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bradputt:
for a moment i thought there's a R26 already. jeezzzzzz :eek:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nocturnal86:
Franco I had a problem after my phone was thermal throttled similar to what happened before. Basically I was thermal throttled to like 1.1GHz and the CPU stepped the max up to 1.4 then to 1.8 as it should when it cools down but it wouldn't go back to max 2.26GHz even after it was sufficiently cooled until I clicked to change the max to 2.26 manually then it stuck. This is kinda what happened on r24 but in this case I could change it manually unlike on before where I couldn't change the max manually it was stuck on 1.8 till I reset the phone.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] teambestyrandy:
Careful brother! don't flash anything not related to nexus 5,you had me worry for you there when you flashed n7 twrp! Did you get it booting now?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] cobyman7035:
ya i guess that stupid mistake didn't brick me! thank god! i assume twrps were all the same, much like SU binary zips

i install some SU1.65 zip file not sure if it was n5 specifically? do i need SU specific for the nexs5?

so i flashed SU1.65 and wiped cache/dalvik

its upgrading android 226 apps again, takes like 10 mins and gets my phone HOT HOT ! damn it might be overheating!:crying:

at least i didn't brick it lol

thats why i hate when i have to upgrade to new kitkat version, PITA! much easier to just dirtyflash like franco kernels over the other

Franco is it possible to add gpu governor in fku? Simple might save more battery..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MersauX:
Awesome kernel, I flashed it last night and I didn't lose a single percent of battery life overnight, it's amazing.

Just out of curiosity, though, when I want to go back to stock kernel I just need to flash the boot.img from the stock ROM or do I need to make other changes too?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] samdal:
What app did you use to have CPU load on all cores as overlay on other apps?

Edit: System Monitor Pro.

Fire?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] OptimusVDarwin:
Yea my room caught on fire. Good thing I had a fire extinguisher nearby or else my whole house would've been in flames.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ben36:
:P
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] omvir:
Are you referring to the N5 as a fire extinguisher? Cause it runs so damn cool, that it could put out a fire of any size within seconds.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] OptimusVDarwin:
Yes that's what I was referring to. I use my n5 as an ice cube, I drop it in my alcohol before I drink it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nirmalsudharjanan:
Wow battery life on this kernel is really awesome.. Franco ur the best...i think stock gives better performance but i need both and now i got it...:)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nbsss:
Uses all four cores for riptide with Hotplug at 99, see screenshot [MENTION=2918197]The Gingerbread Man[/MENTION]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SurenSeven:
Ok gotta ask ..all you guys with snappy performance AND good battery life, are you using ART or dalvik or dalvik with dalvik/bionic optimizations? Before i flashed Franco kernel i was on ART but now franco with dalvik+optimizations . For those of you who have used the different runtimes and franco kernel ,have you noticed difference in perf/battery life ?

Currently on franco r25 with dalvik+optimizations + Xposed. If franco + ART = more-to-the-already-awesome-experience then willing to go back to ART .

P.S. Haven't seen real proof of runtime impact on battery life.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lvtjul:
ok i've got another one on the last kernel, i am thé only one ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] FAdrums:
Well first charge on r25 + stock + ART. Not bad I think...what do you guys think?

Plus first time in a long time that I go to work without the charger! Wish me luck :sly:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MersauX:
Got it :) Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaj473:
Used both ART and dalvik but did not feel much diff in both performance and battery..

Xposed ruined my battery,so removed it (did a full wipe including internal) and after that battery improved a lot..

Now im getting 5hrs SOT every charge with moderate use..

I personally prefer be on dalvik until apps are completely optimized for ART.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Curtis7990:
After my incredible experience with Franco kernel on Nexus 4, I decided to unlock my Nexus 5 and flash Franco Kernel again. Any suggest for the ROM to flash? I was undecided between Stock or CM11. Let me know your experience people, I'm looking for a better battery life, and a user experience as similar as Stock :D I don't care about custom option or graphic customization. Thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] aamitabh28:
Although this is not a ROM discussion thread.. Still i would recommend purity with franco. Its a match made in heaven.. And fulfills all your criteria

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] G8D:
No you're not. I've had this too. Sometimes requiring a reboot sometimes the screen will come on after 5-10 seconds.

Do you under clock or under volt?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bigbear6708:
I meant what Is the default CPU max freq? Mind says 2.2g... thought Franco came at 1.9g though... am I wrong?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] highend01:
r25

After charging yesterday evening to 100%...

12,5 hours later -> 99%

Wifi on...

Ofc I didn't do anything with the phone, it's just in deep sleep mode all the time.

I doubt that this can get any better. Thanks a lot Franco!

:good: :good: :good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] OptimusVDarwin:
Cataclysm rom is similar to stock and is very popular
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eluspo:
Did u UV or just default fk?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
You have a good sense of humor, I like it :highfive:

Wow nice crash :D

Yes you're wrong, it boots with 2,26Ghz
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nbsss:
I know, it's beautiful :D

Edit: test-5, link in signature, I think the occasional stuttering when I previously tested 960k was actually due to the boostpulse_duration being too short. So I've increased it and brought input_boost_freq down. Adjusted hispeed load to compensate. Feels good now.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] OptimusVDarwin:
Thanks! Haha. Coming from you, I feel so special. ? (no sarcasm) ✋?

Btw I just broke the 5hr SOT mark for the first time woot ✋. Forgot to take screenies, next time.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lvtjul:
No I don't under clock or under volt, I use stock settings of the kernel. But from what I understood, in the last release, it is undervolt indeed.

What I can say is that on stock kernel I didn't have SOD, so it's maybe a kernel thing. I didn't see anything relevant in last_kmesg log .. How can I investigate further ? Any idea franciscofranco ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jlevy73:
Might want to dirty flash your Rom (without any wipe) then flashing the kernel again.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lvtjul:
When u say dirty flash, it's flashing over my current ROM (stock ROM in fact )?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nirmalsudharjanan:
Me on ART..on both i got similar battery backups. But i think now my phone is lot cooler, i don't know whether its kernel or runtime related.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thecryof:
AOKP is also a very clean "close to stock" ROM. An official nightly was just released (but a lot of features are yet to be included, as the team are working on all that right now).
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jlevy73:
Yes, exactly. Flash your stock rom with no wipe, reboot and let it start up. The flash the kernel again, once again no wipe. I find that flashing the Rom helps straighten out any weirdness I experience when flashing to a new kernel. Just my two cents.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lvtjul:
OK thanks I can try that
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaj473:

Its not a carrier block because my Nexus 4 tethers just fine. I get "Error" on tethering and I haven't found anything on the CM threads so I'm wondering if its a Franco + CM thing. I should probably try flashing back to stock CM to confirm

Sometimes while opening the app drawer the animation is a little bit slow...this didn't happened with r24! I also raised boostpulse duration to 1s :(

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Visa Declined:
My tethering drops all the time, but it's a known problem with the device and not a fault of the kernel. Once I get tethering working, I have to leave the device alone, if I use it, whatever I'm tethered to loses internet connection.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaj473:
In general, our CPU needs 775mv [MENTION=1785406]300m[/MENTION]hz..

Does that mean each core needs 775mv when active?

Or the entire CPU needs that voltage to be active?

Sorry for the stupid question..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ben36:
Franco,

Is the kernel relevant to the gps? because my maps has been awful for accuracy today
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaj473:
Its fine for me..

And most of the times kernels have nothing to do with gps..

The gain boost control in f.Ku concerns headphones, not the external speaker.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] OGroteKoning:
That is not correct. There is a speaker gain setting too

EDIT: The options are

Headset volume boost

Headset gain boost

Mic gain

Speaker gain

All under kernel settings

Really impressive battery lifetime with StockRom + franco R25. Sync ON, Location OFF, Mostly on Wifi. No gaming, just low-level stuff like reading, surfing, chatting etc.

Love your kernel franco, keep going on!

I can't play Soulcalibur (Namco Bandai game from Google Play) with Franco kernel.

It works OK with stock kernel.

Can I fix that somehow?

ok i've got another one SOD even after dirty flashing the rom... Here is the last_kmsg.

http://pastie.org/8580041

Is it possible to track the state of the phone during SOD (processes, cpu usage, ram usage, etc... )?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hosmsdos:
I went back to stock rom and kernel. i don't know if its rom issue or kerenl but stock is way smoother, i will defiantly keep checking franco kernel, but for now i am happy with stock i will check battery life and report back later.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dark_ente:
Conspiracy theory... Maybe Franco just put the voltage interface because so many people were whining about it and it really didn't change anything. When you set it too low, the apps will start a countdown timer to reboot the phone..

Just saying... :p :p :p
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Undervolting?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] murdok83:
Good day Franco... I've a question for you.. Well two to be exact...

I use my n5 mostly for calling and messaging and most of the time is in deep sleep... In order to increase battery life I UC to 1.4 and I UV all frequency of -75mv and the 300mhz down further to 650... I set these changes to apply on boot but on every reboot the 300mhz goes back to 700mhz... Is this a safe trigger cause 650 is too low!?

And if it is not, is it safe to set this value or could I do some damage!?

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GeekMcLeod:
Some people have set 300 down to 600 and not have issues. If it's too low for your phone it would reboot close to, or, instantly after setting it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] murdok83:
Thanks... So no danger for the device... Good to know... What about not being able to make this value stick on boot?!

Am I the only one?!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GeekMcLeod:
On your post following your sig, when it says 300 down to 625-675, does that mean globally? Or do you set them all down a certain number then adjust 300 by itself?

Also, my above_hispeed_delay always resets to 0. Turns out it was tricksters problem. In FKU it works fine. Thanks post below me!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] carlese:
In trickster it resets itself.. In fku I think it sticks..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Red5:
Ive had my N5 for a week now. Im running KangDroid and I like it so far, but Im open for suggestions and Ive read a few here. I tried using the bricked kernel as that was already suggested to me. I ran it for 5 days... needless to say, Im now here. :)

What is the dalvik mod that Ive seen a few members mention?

[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] I really like r25. I flashed it yesterday evening and Im really liking it so far. I dont use s2s or dt2w and Ive never really liked mpdecision so this really seems like the kernel for me, so thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nbsss:
I personally apply a global -50mV, and then set the 300mhz individually. Though the global -50mV isn't really necessary as the most used frequency is 300mhz, and the 300mhz can handle the most aggressive undervolting.

Depending on your device PVS, either 625, 650, or 675 will be stable.

Mines PVS 2 and stable at 625mV for the 300mhz. If you get reboots, you know why ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GeekMcLeod:
This would probably be it. Dalvik Mod
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Red5:
Oh, yeah, I guess the dalvik mod would be called the dalvik mod. I havent enabled ART yet so I may try this. Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] 75markus:
if you like to change rom, you can have a look at cataclysm ... rock stable and some nice goodies, not to much, just perfect for me...

combined with franco kernel = awesome :D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nbsss:
I'd you're using the FKU app it takes 2min after boot to automatically set the settings - to protect you from bootloops ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Red5:
I may have to. After reading the dalvik mod thread, the mod cant be used on a CM rom because they use their own dalvik libraries. So Ill be switching to something else soon. Thanks for the suggestion.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lvtjul:
well, no, I just installed r25 and stayed with your default settings. I had this problem with previous version too.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yeah that's right.

Nope, I already explained that it depends on when Android sends the BOOT_COMPLETED broadcast.

Most likely user error, sorry.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sir*mez:
On the nexus 4 inputting a negative number would decrease the headset gain boost volume. Here on the Nexus 5 a negative number increases the headset gain boost volume. I thought it was wrong. :eek:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nbsss:
Yeah sorry, I meant it's *protected me* from bootloops, a positive side effect :p
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TyroneLT:
Been trying this setup today and it's been working great so far! No lag at all and 55 mins SOT at 88% so far. I appreciate everyone's work on contributing their settings!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] EnricoTFYKD:
This happened to me, too, however I think I found the reason. Somehow, when setting 675mv or lower to the 300MHz slot, the value wouldn't be written to the voltage table (well, actually just a list) in the com.franco.kernel_preferences.xml file. That file stores pretty much all the settings of the app (and so of the kernel). I tried editing the file and writing 675 as the first voltage value, rebooted, and I got 675mv to stick after reboot.

Yeah that's right.

--------------------------------------

Certainly not an expert, but when setting Speaker Gain to 10 and using volume up to the tone, it is much louder than when setting Speaker Gain to any lower or minus number. So from that test I would disagree. --Larry
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Enddo:
im running 300MHz at 650 and it's stable. tested 625 and it was ok but ended up rebooting. but it stuck after reboot. if you're having issues with voltages not sticking then it's on your end, not the kernel or the app.

[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] I have a question, I've had the FKU app for a while now and I just now started paying attention to the System Monitor incorporation. I really liked it and decided to buy the full version. Is there a way to use the full version inside of FKU? If not, would it be possible so that the FKU app could make a Play Store check, to confirm it has been bought and would then have all the features of the paid System Monitor?

Sorry not exactly a newb here but i was wondering what target loads in gov tweaks do. I cant seem to find it from some quick googling and i was wondering if anyone could enlighten me:D thanks in advanced
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sbslammer:
love the kernel - been on it since r02. However I've been experiencing high idle drain ~20%+ overnight on the last couple revisions . Ive attached at bbs logcat - can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] EvanA:
It does exactly what it sounds like. The governor algorithm scales the CPU frequency in order to come close to the specified target load. For example, if the CPU is currently at 100% load and the target load is 90, the governor will raise the frequency in an attempt to keep the load below the target.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] muEcke*:
[MENTION=4788174]Nbsss[/MENTION] it's a bit better with your settings but r24 was a lot smoother here...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gapone:
Can anyone explain those "up threshold any cpu freq" and "up threshold any cpu load" settings...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Mynix:
Same here, after flashing r25. Got very bad battery life until reboot (approx 2h SOT + 6h uptime). I saw the same process eating my battery.

Also, still the same issue with FKU app : CPU settings doesn't work from FKU app but no problem from Trikster.. :/

(For example switching to performance governor doesn't work, setting min/max freq to 2265/2265 or 300/300 neither. See post xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48759744&postcount=9090)

Running stock kernel, no bionic libraries. If nobody else faces this issue i'll try to reflash everything...

Thanks :)
