Did you try rebooting? Random apps can do stupid things like that from time to time. If didn't recur I wouldn't worry. Your battery life doesn't seem too bad overall.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nmlssit:
To be honest no, I rebooted at 96% because Hangouts was not displaying avatar pictures. At the moment I only removed Email autosync, but i am worried about that AudioMix wakelock. Rebooting now.

I am a noob (still) for rooting and all! I have nexus 5 rooted with stock rom. I would like to install this kernel. How should i do it?

I am still using stock recovery and original google rom. Do i need twrp or clockworkmod installed? Do i need to install cm11 or some custom rom to install this kernal?

What is the procedure to install it? I am using mac btw..

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks in advance
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JB910:
You will need to install twrp or cwm. Flash the AOSP version if your staying stock rooted, use caf version if you flash CM11.

There is a great forum for your questions. Nexus 5 Q and A. Start there.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nightshad3:
I was just wondering if I flash a delta update if I could flash the express and still keep the previous settings. That would be much easier than running through the aroma every time.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] szucsgf:
You need a custom recovery line twrp or cwm. You do not need a custom ROM like CM11, any AOSP kernel will work on stock ROM.

The procedure is to just download the kernel zip file, boot into recovery, click "Install", navigate to the kernel file, confirm.

If your already have a custom kernel installed and want to try a different custom kernel you need to dirty flash your ROM first. There are stock ROM zips on XDA.

You can flash express and it will retain all your previous Aroma selections.

might be a rom issue as also experiencing high audiomix wakelock with lego rom & 0.31. phone is on silent & only time I use the audio is when listening to music
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] letmedanz:
Before you get cracking on your phone (i understand the excitement totally!), i would strongly advice you to first read through the guides a bit.

Understand what you are doing to your phone...

as you see, a lot of people will help you, but you need to know what the positive & negative effects are.

these will help you get started, but it's still a drop in the ocean :)

This Kernel has saved someone's life today....

Seriously though. I'm on a stock, rooted N5. Some bloat removed but otherwise as-is. The past month or two my battery life has been HORRIBLE. Stats show the OS was using 50%+ of battery. No amount of cache clearing, setting tweaks or other bits have fixed that. Yesterday I got to work and my battery was at 93%. By 10am and after making one or two 10 minute phone calls my batt was down to 50%. Nearly dead at lunch.

Installed this Kernel yesterday afternoon, dropped voltage and max frequency down one step from stock and made no other changes. Now as I near lunch time by battery is at about 73% remaining. That includes a similar amount of talk time and some "toilet time" too.... OS usage is now only showing about 13%. BIG DIFFERENCE.

So it looks like I won't have to throw this phone at someone's head when the battery prematurely dies again.

I flashed ElementalX Kernel 2 days ago but i have not reflashed system.img ? does it need to flash ? And where can i find system.img of my Stock rom ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jayplusone:
You don't need to flash system.img or stock rom unless you're coming from another kernel. If you are, dirty flashing your rom before flashing elementalx is the easiest and safest option IMO.

oh thanks . I will try with default setting first. :D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Groteski:
There is no best options. It all depends on how you use your phone. If i had my favorite option it would be ondervolting
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] shinbi:
In undervolting tab. what did you do?:confused:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] olivierg13:
Indeed default settings are the best to begin with.

If you want to go on deeper with customization, you should play with undervolting/overcloking depending on your needs. You could play with schedulers and governors too, depending on your system.

But be cautious with this types of settings, it could in the best case just shutdown your phones, and in other cases broke some of the components...

Cheers
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Guti1977:
You could try running the express kernel file instead of the one with the Aroma installer. That will load with default settings without asking questions. I works great for me.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] olivierg13:
Hello [MENTION=1457845]shinbi[/MENTION],

First you will want to install a kernel modifier app, like trickster mod or faux. On this specific kernel, you could modify a lot of values during the installation process.

You can play with governors (CPU and GPU). Governors are modules that manage CPU and GPU speed and clock, depending on the demand by the system. I recommend ElementalX on this one though, since it is the best balance between power and performance for the Nexus 5.

Then you can try to undervolt the CPU/GPU. But be careful with these values, your phone should not start again (always let a kernel installation zip on your sdcard, in order to do a fresh install if something goes wrong). And after that, you can play with all the values you want, search on the forum, get knowledge about all you want etc... Search for I/O, I/O Schedulers etc...

Cheers,
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] shinbi:
Thanks Oliveg13 for share. I noted and i will try that.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] big_bum:
Do I really need to flash system.img if I come from franco kernel?

I don't want to loose all my modifications to the system ( xposed, dalvik/bionic, gpu drivers and maybe other that I can't remember).
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] notbrodie:
You can try renaming the files that franco changes, but flashing system would be the best bet
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jayplusone:
Can't you dirty flash your rom and reflash all the other mods? TWRP makes it extremely easy to flash multiple zips and get it all squared away.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
There is a very easy guide on the Franco thread somewhere as to what to do. Maybe 3 steps. Final step flash stock kernel then do whatever you want. There's even a link to the stock kernel there.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jayplusone:
But why search? /s ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] big_bum:
Can I find a stock ROM zip somewhere?

I only found img files.

Also, I hate TWRP. I always hated it in the days of my Galaxy S2 and I never want to meet that recovery again :D

Because it's easier to ask?

Because I want to press the Thanks button for someone who spends a few minutes to explain/answer to my question?

Because I'm part of a community of people who share the same interests and there must be someone out there who wants to help me?

Instead of using a passive aggressive attitude you should just ignore what's annoying for you. It will help you a lot in your life.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
True. But that being said it's actually on another support thread by Volmer I believe. It's linked somewhere near his OP, but it did take some doing to find it. Great guide though especially with the update of KitKat coming soon.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jayplusone:
I was referring to your particular rom bud. Also please don't take offense it wasn't towards you. Just a joke - as I did take the time to answer your question. I've been there before ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
U should do a dirty flash but u could just dig threw Franco's FAQ it tells u how to remove his kernel , but u do need flash at least the stock kernel . hears stock ROM its 99.9% just like Google ota its just rooted . http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/development/rom-android-4-4-2-kot49h-rooted-busybox-t2557523 there are others out there but bigxies work is legit . all your exposed or Gbox stuff just takes a click and a reboot and all is working agn with dirty flash

I use trickster mod to set custom voltage across the board and it works fine :)

I also use trickstermod without issue. I have to say flar has made a kernel app unnecessary for the most part. Just go to etc>elementalx.conf, mount as root, edit to your hearts desire and reboot ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
Really? I didn't know that. But even stock boots quicker and pretty much in line with Franco. It's been discussed here a week or so ago and Flar does something in the background before booting that slows it down a bit. Btw, love your version 7. Using it here with fku.
