Assuming those are the cpu clock and GPU manager pages? What is a good number to start with? If I go too low can I brick my phone?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Gustave17:
No you can't brick your phone.

You can start with the stock one...

2,26 Ghz for cpu and 320 Mhz for gpu.

You can also try to play with per app settings...

Guys I need your help.

I'm using AOSPAL ROM which has kernel tweaker built in its settings.

Let's say I downloaded the 16_r2u , and I don't want to have those overclocks , if I set my frequencies to the stock one, will it be the same as 11m?

My aim is to have stock frequencies !
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Not used that ROM, but if it allows you to set all the appropriate kernel attributes to stock values, then yes you can have stock frequencies. If the built in tweaker doesn't allow it, I'd reccomend the faux123 app. In that one you can adjust more than you could ever imagine. So yes, stock values are definitely achievable on any ROM faux kernel is compatable with.

from my N5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JaylanPHNX:
I'm fairly sure that the way it works now, you will have stock frequencies by default. You'd only have to adjust if you wanted the OC.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ogboot:
I don't OC on faux, it doesn't force you too. The app is great though, got the gf to DL it too in order to make tweaks to both devices easier for me.

How to boot omni with f2fs?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] occtec:
Anyone else having issues with screen after reboot? Since I installed the latest kernel every time I reboot my phone once I'm booted in the first screen I see is my whole entire screen covered by snow effect not black and white but colored and then resolved itself and goes to home screen after a few seconds. This had only started since I upgraded from Franco to faux but I did flash stock kernel in between.

Any ideas or has anyone else experienced this issue? Cheers...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GzC:
It's cause by gamma/color settings, remove it and you're good.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] occtec:
And where should I remove this from?

[MENTION=4546030]GzC[/MENTION] Edit: was running color control using fku since I had paid for it a while back. So I disabled it and all is good now. How come there's an issue with adjusting color profiles on this kernel??
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GzC:
Using faux clock or other apps that support gamma settings.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] occtec:
What is the issue here? Never was an issue before using this kernel??
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GzC:
That not an issue. If you've set the gamma control, the kernel need to settle after device booted up, this apply to all settings.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] occtec:
Can I ask why you told me to remove it then??
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GzC:
I was just suggest you the solution for the snow thing. You can feel free to remove or keep using it.

Thanks mate [emoji106]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] CM-PRo:
Love this kernel, especially when using the faux app. However, I'm a little concerned about the boot time. Takes about 25-30 secs to boot unlike franco kernel which boots in 10-15 secs. Hope you can take a look into that.

Cheers!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GUGUITOMTG4:
I've noticed that too. But as I haven't rebooted the phone like in 2 weeks, (Did today to flash a Purity update). It's not an issue.

Also, could as well be a Rom problem solvable by wiping caches.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] the1dynasty:
In case anyone struggles like I did with this... I wanted to look into updating my Theme Chooser themes for the new theme engine, so I flashed my first ROM (CM11) since buying my N5 back in the beginning of November... After flashing this kernel, it doesn't boot... then like a fool i thought i did something wrong so I wanted to try the CM Installer to see if that would work better... Well that completely wiped my device so I lost all backups etc... I flashed the latest faux kernel and it wouldn't get beyond the "Google" logo on boot... then i found this other thread and simply flashed the CAF zip first then this kernel and it booted up fine and works like normal now... Hopefully this saves someone the headache and time I just went through lol... http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/development/cm11-users-heres-how-aospnon-caf-t2626961

Audio Stutter on Beta 8

[MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION], flashed 17b8 last night and having an audio glitch. Had the issue on franco last month, so switched to faux 14. Ran 14 and 15 without issue. Never downloaded 16, so can't say whether the issue was introduced in 16 or 17b8.

The problem (a buzz) occurs when the phone switches radios (leaving WiFi or changing cell towers). franco thread has a lot of comments about the issue.

After coming back from 3.4.90 linaro kernel I have not been able to install this kernel.

Could anyone tell me how to get around this issue since this is my favorite kernel.

EDIT: This happens on stock 4.4.2 + faux-u16_r2. Also, I have tried flashing the stock kernel and then the faux kernel but still get the same FC's. Any help would be appreciated.

Any hope on using these optimisations http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2754997 instead of old 4.7 gcc and compile flags?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] animania260:
This kernel, and pretty much all other custom kernels have been using -O3 compile-time optimization for years now.

Some ROMs do some don't. Check with your ROM Dev to be sure.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tommy-Geenexus:
Faux is using -O3 and A-15 and other optimisations already.

GCC 4.8 is not as stable as 4.7, but yes it performs better than 4.7.

Leave it up to him, i think its fine already.

Edit: GCC 4.7 is updated regularly (linaro one), so it really isn't that "old".

It's a Nexus
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] r_tarandus:
I've always wondered: since the latest stable has "u" in it, does that mean it's overclocking on stock settings? There are times (playing games, videochatting) when my phone gets significantly hotter than usual.

Also, are there any general guidelines to kernel settings that would help me save battery? I know this is highly debatable, but a push in the right direction would be nice.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroneDoom:
Can't flash a faux kernel over a clean flash of carbon, DU, and maybe a few others. Whatever Franco kernel left behind, I can't seem too format it so that faux doesn't cause fc on the android.phone.com process.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JaylanPHNX:
One way to make sure it's not old stuff conflicting would be to back up your data storage and flash complete stock factory image. That's a nuclear bomb wipe as it reformats everything.

(Those ROMs aren't CAF based are they?)

Hello,

I've been having very bad mobile data connection issues and wondering if the problem is happening for others using faux kernel as well.

Randomly throughout the day my phone will show a few bars of LTE yet absolutely every app isn't receiving data.

I have to put my phone in airplane mode then take it out for it to reconnect and actually have a data connection. I do this at least 4 times a day!

I just did an RMA for my nexus 5 because after all the trouble shooting with T-Mobile...we suspected it is a phone issue so they sent me a new one. Still, same problem!

I installed everything from scratch on the new phone. I did NOT do a backup and restore. I just simply downloaded all my apps and re-rooted the new device and installed the latest "m" version of faux kernel. I'm using his recommended settings only as well.

Anyone else experiencing this??

EDIT: Seems like this is a common issue for Stock Nexus 5?

No I didn't use any dialer mods, I simply cleaned wipe and flash a ROM and faux then the fc begins. Yes I've tried numerous times formating everything, even used the different format available in twrp. It's not a big deal though, franco works without error.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dmillerzx:
The Nexus 5 seems to be plagued with radio / reception issues. I don't think this is due to FAUX though, maybe switch over to Franco really quick and see if it's better.

Compatible ROMs please

After reading thro a few posts i am very confused. Is this kernel compatible with CM11 or not?

Why dont they post the list of compatible roms in the OP for every kernel?? Will that not help all those noobs like me? simple thing to do without being asked so many times.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] El Nino1977:
It's not compatible with CM.

Why should he? If CM decide to change their path away from aosp sources then that's their problem not fauxs. Noob or not my friend, a search in this thread would have answered your question.

Maybe your rom thread should state in the OP what kernel is compatible with their roms? :P

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] faux123:
No, Unfortunately, N5 does NOT have a dedicated Speaker Amp chip as in N4. So the Answer is NO.

Fortunately, FauxSound can adjust the volume of the speaker for now..

(There's an issue with the settings being reset... this is not a bug in FauxSound but rather the userspace side is resetting the values. In Nexus 4 they started doing this.. and this unfortunately continued into N5 with even more resets :p. I need to work on ways to either prevent this or ways to apply the settings after the reset).

Don't mean to question your kernel - it performs wonderfully - but perhaps you have knowledge to contribute to my understanding of zram that I haven't come across yet?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] anub1s18:
zram wiki page

i'm not sure why people see this as a fix for low ram devices, it seems to dedicate a part of the ram to handle paging instead of it happening on the internal storage so if you have a cripplingly low amount of ram your double crippling your device ... if i understand correctly.

in our case the slowest component on the entire device is the internal storage (the 1 thing google/lg cheaped out on) so it's more a fix for that.

by moving the paging in to the infinity faster ram instead of the internal storage it should see a slight performance gain over writing to the internal storage. as these writes/read's would also be able to happen faster since the Zram is faster then our storage (it's not a hard thing to find faster storage then the internal of the N5) so it would probably also be more efficient in terms of power since it's spending less time reading/writing.

atleast that's what it seems to do to me, pls correct me if i'm wrong ^^
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Haidary.T:
User core control.. How do I do that? I don't think it's in fauxclock o.o
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] loube:
Check Google Play to update fauxclock to version 2.00 you will see new functions
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] faux123:
Yeap

Edit: having more stuff cached in ram will result in less I/O accesses thus improving performance.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] faux123:
It's an sampling issue. By observing it, you are altering its behavior.

It does drop down to 200 and go above 320 but my frequency sampling rate isn't fast enough to see the transitions.

I recommend simple GPU governor/algorithm for best battery and performance
