Battery life seems improved with v2.06; running SlimLP by [MENTION=2770867]akselic[/MENTION]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Me too. Better battery life and no lags for me either ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] maidenboston:
can we get this new hotplug with kitkat elementalx? ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
How about you get with the times and jump on the Lolipop train? :) I don't forsee any more N5 ElementalX KitKat updates now that flar2's N5 is running Lolipop.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] maidenboston:
i'm tempted but i spent way too much time customizing kitkat to just let it all go...

(along with finding the perfect kernel settings for my use.....)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Mr.Jay:
What are the differences between Hotplug and MPD? Can I switch from one to other in ElementalX 2.04?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
2.04/2.05 don't have hot plug, it is a 2.06 only feature. According to latest user feedback(last 2 pages), most have concluded Hotplug is snappier and better for battery life.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Sigray:
No it isnt snappier.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] szucsgf:
Actually conclusions have been all over the place.

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION], since we've had a few days to test do you think it would be useful to have an XDA poll on which hotplug users prefer as default? Or perhaps you've already made a decision.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
We can have both. I will make it an option.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] staggerlee1:
Performance is needed more than ever, on Lollipop!? It's made to work on low end devices. It's far better than kk. As for not liking the kernel you should try b4 pontificating. It's upto the normal high standard. I've run it since the day it came out. No problems with cataclysm.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] russian392:
I tried synapse with EX and there are no hot plug customizations (such as max CPU's when screen off and max CPU's in general, max load till CPU is put online and others). Is this just me or is this how it works?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thesebastian:
About KitKat ART 4.4.4 performance vs Lollipop 5.0.1 performance: I disagree. However, I respect your opinion. For you 5.0.1 is faster than 4.4.4, OK with that.

For me, Lollipop is faster on some matters and slower on some others.

About "not liking the kernel" (I suppose you are talking about EX) I never said that!. EX is the best custom kernel. I did not mention something about cataclysm either.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] szucsgf:
Not how it works. I'm not using synapse this minute so I can't say for 100%, but you're looking for an on/off type toggle probably labeled just "MPD". Turn it on and you'll have stock MPD like ElementalX always had, turn it off and you'll have the new experimental hotplug. It's off by default on 2.06, which is the only version with the new hotplug.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
Not talking about your opinion, was talking about what the other posts above mine said about hotplug.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GragonV:
with 2.06, the freezing issue is still there (I've just clean flash the Cata Rom... not sure about the cause of the problem)

Anyway going back to 2.05 since I get worse performance with 2.06 :(

btw, is there anyway to set the minfree killing, I'm so so so disappointed with the ram manager on Lollipop. Automatically reload the app a lot when switching between apps (facebook, dolphin, sms and dialer only)

I've tried to set the minfree with trickster mode but it cannot be sticked and elemental X manager doesn't have the option
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Sigray:
Sure. Check the previous post.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
You obvious didn't read the top 3 post on that page, which was the basis of my post(on page 1592 & 1591 before my post the opinion was 3 vs 1 for 2.06 hotplug)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Sigray:
Try to read the others. The experimental version is good but the 2.05 is much better.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
Beside the point, my post was about the opinion of users on those 2 pages(1591 & 1592) and those only. Personally I don't really care which one is better(or by how much), the poster I quoted asked and I give him an answer based on user feedback on the those 2 pages.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
Then you have to look elsewhere for now, but flar2 just give Nexus 7 a CAF Lolipop kernel so maybe N5's would come soon, but maybe not.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] russian392:
I see that one. Just there isn't anything I can tune about the current hot plug. For example on some kernels I can set the CPU load required to turn on another core and such.

Sorry for repeating question. I just flashed CM12 5.0.2 (CM's Official). Which .zip version/type should i download/flash?

Searched the thread, but I couldn't get it clearly. Someone, please help. Really want to use this kernel. :confused: :(

Is this kernel even compatible with CM12?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yanleites:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION], why can't I update to the new version from your app?

I flashed 2.06 and the app tells me that 2.05 is newest, and advice me to update...

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
Is your phone on SuperSU 2.45?(I know CM have integrated SU, if that's what you use then set SElinux to permissive) If you are then settings you set in Aroma installer might not stick(depend on your ROM). Go back to SuperSU 2.40 will fix it.

If you aren't on SuperSU 2.45 then it is likely a busybox issue, download this :https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox and install the latest version, then reflash the ROM.

All else fails(if you have ElementalX app then just change the settings in the app and set it to apply on boot), go into a file explorer and navigate to system/etc/elementalx_conf and edit settings there(flar wrote tips into that file on what value need to change for whichever settings you want to edit).

I can say for sure 2.06 is more than stable. I'd definitely try tweaking it to get more battery life though. Seems like it uses way too much battery even at 4% brightness

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pandza88:
Just wanna say that 2.06 hotplug is great! I lose 2% battery overnight. And I am very happy with it :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
We don't need the patch because EX used the existing ramdisk. Should work fine.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yak84:
And how exactly the hotplug relate to standby battery consumption?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pandza88:
For example, I had on same kernel and same ROM with different hotplugs 15% and 4% overnight drain. So I believe it has some effect ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yak84:
The hotplug is turned off while screen is off...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pandza88:
It makes your phone have only one core online durning suspend... That's the part of hotplug... So it do something and works!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Idle drain is the same for both, 0.3 to 0.4 percent per hour. If you have more drain than that, it's either wake functions, bad signal, or something is keeping the phone awake.

Standby is the best I've ever seen. Even with Bluetooth on drain is about 5% an hour for me :) which is amazing cause code blue got -11% an hour.

But under light use battery drain goes down fast.....not sure why though. Just texting and reading.

2.06 has been running great. one thing i do notice is when i am playing family guy it seems to have a hard time keeping up with scrolling across the screen and drawing all of the buildings. dont remember this ever being an issue in the past except when the memory leak was effecting my phone. a restart would clear it up. i did a clean flash of cataclysm and flashed 2.06 and the memory leak is gone but i am having this issue. its not a huge deal just not sure what changed. i use default x settings on the kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] szucsgf:
2.06 uses an experimental hotplug. Use any kernel app to turn on "MPD" and the kernel should run like before.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
Except for the ElementalX app, where you go to CPU->HotPlug Options->Disable Hotplug.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nathanjp:
Hey guys I was wondering what settings should I pick in aroma installer. I'm not a heavy user, I don't play any games. I just use some like what's app, xda and snapchat and Facebook
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
Go with the default, it should serve you well enough until you got time to tweak things.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nathanjp:
I have the time haha. Btw what exactly does undervolt mean. I'm new to the nexus 5 so I'm still learning :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
Undervolt means asking the CPU to use a lower voltage(than default) at each frequency level, it mainly reduces CPU temps and may or maynot contribute to better battery life.

How much undervolt your cpu can take while still remaining stable depend on the quality of your chip(each chip is slightly different so don't just copy another person's UV setting and assume it will work 100%), a sign that you UVed too much is that the device shuts off during sleep or screen-off music playback stutters.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] magnamentis:
he is right, stick to defaults but if you want to learn and play, why not, just read a bit about undervolting. there is some controversy about the benifits in genereal while i tend to not worth it since there are possibilities to achieve those goals to with much more effect and no to choosable side effects, while undervolting is responsible for many hard to narrow down side effects, while the easiest one to find out would be randorm reboots or bootloops. you MUST have a backup if you undervolt or you could end up with not being able to come back online and re-set the undervolting or at least would cause you some sweat. else what [MENTION=5281524]NovaSense[/MENTION] said.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yanleites:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION], other kernels are being updated regularly, new Linux and some fixes.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yanleites:
I think linux update is necessary, but if you say so...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Linux supports thousands upon thousands of pieces of hardware, the vast majority of those updates are for things that have nothing to with our phone.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] magnamentis:
you did not understand the difference between this kernel and other kernels ramdisk-wise. it's simply not necessary because this kernel comes with it's own ramdisk.

LOL that's not what he is looking for, he means the daily cm commit updated form cm kernel commits but as we two know, see above :)

it's not a version, it's experimental and has been mention to the umpteenth time in this thread. experimental means, not in the op and yes he clearly wrote what the changes are, no MPDecision for example etc. etc. so all the usual platitudes apply once more, read, search and the likes.

Check out layers, it is a easy to use theme engine for LP(your custom rom have to support it). Links are in my signature.

Specifically I used the Playstation Nav Bar overlay by +chris hale.

btw, busybox 1.23.1 now avaliable.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] russian392:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]

Nice going. No unnecessary updates. No unnecessary bloat. I'd say this kernel does more not updating that kernels that update all the time but keep getting worse (cough cough code blue).

Just one question/request. It would be cool if you made a separate governor like elemental_x_conservative version for those who are okay with losing a little bit of performance to get the max battery life. But that's just an idea

I downloaded/bougt the ElementalX app from Google Play, i am using the latest Resurrection Remix rom, with CM kernel. The app can't find any kernel to download. Do i have to flash manually first time with TWRP? or am i doing somethin wrong? I havre previously tried both code blue and Franco kernel. Would really try this kernel. Do i have to download another elemental x kernel?

Edit: Solved
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bleuxeon:
For now, there is no special version for CM12 and you can use the main ElementalX 2.05 version.

So in the ElementalX app choose/download Stock/AOSP and not Cyanogenmod/CAF.

Using SuperSU 2.45? If so that breaks aroma installer(this happens with Slim and a few other ROMs), so you won't be able to keep any settings you set during flashing. Go back to SuperSU 2.40 would fix it.

The issue was explained by me here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58559548&postcount=15856 and [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] had a guess for what might be causing it here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58560411&postcount=15857

Tylog, could you look into this? Might have something to do with how SuperSU 2.45 & Slim interact in term of selinux.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] subasa345:
I just activate when i install on adb bootloader, it's ok? Can u instruct me how can i active that feature :p
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] szucsgf:
Did you undervolt?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
See my post above, if you are using SuperSU 2.45 with Slim it would break the Aroma installer and you wouldn't be able to keep any setting set during flashing. If you are not then problem is probably with your buysbox version, download and install buysbox from playstore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox and check to make sure you have the latest version. After that reflash the kernel in recovery again to see if setting you put in sticks.

If all else fails, go into file explorer and find the ElementalX config file in system/etc/elementalx.conf and edit that file to tweak settings(flar had written instruction into that file on how to change settings in there, changes you made in that file will apply after you reboot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] subasa345:
Thanks, so what now? Need flash rom again??
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
Don't have to flash rom again, If your problem is with SuperSU 2.45 just flash SuperSU 2.40 first then flash ElementalX 2.06(settings should stay as you set this time).

If your problem was with busybox, flash ElementalX 2.06 in recovery again.

If you had to edit ElementalX.conf to fix the settings, just reboot after you saved the edit.

p.s I hope you remembered to flash ElementalX every time

after you dirty flashed SlimLP

, SlimLP would install its own kernel everytime you dirty flash and overwrite ElementalX so to keep ElementalX you got to flash it everytime after you dirty flashed Slim.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
How to install what? He just told you. BTW I've never had a problem with 2.0.6 settings sticking with the supersu 2.45 binaries. Just download the latest slimlp for the N5 either the official or from the SBC here http://xdaforums.com/slimroms/general/rom-builders-collective-t2861778 Download the ElX 2.0.6 kernel if you don't have it. Download the latest slim gapps from here http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/1251-addons/downloads and download the flashable supersu 2.45 binaries from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053 In TWRP (and you are on TWRP 2.8.4.0 right?) select advanced wipe and wipe all except internal storage and then swipe to do a factory reset. Then the flashing order I go in is rom, gapps, binaries, and kernel and settings stick for me every time. That's the procedure I use from start to finish :good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
Me and [MENTION=5824101]gtctsiamp[/MENTION] have had that EX settings/Supersu 2.45 issue on Slim since 2.45 was first introduced. Which SlimRom version/build are you currently on and does it set SElinux to permissive for V4A( I have heard from people that permissive would nullify this issue)?

If yours is set to enforcing, then the only thing that is different is that I flash kernel before SuperSU instead of SuperSU then kernel like you. In that case I will try flashing that way to see if the setting sticks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Blueblob:
Just a quick question about the GPU governor. I see in the init.d file : ondemand is default, but it can be set to performance if it founds the parameter in the .conf file.

But in the .conf no GPU governor choice + explanation like others parameters.

So my question : is it deprecated ? Or can I add GPU_GOV=3 in conf file ?

And 2.06 runs like a charm here (Terminus + SuperSU 2.45). Good job ! [emoji106]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
The performance GPU governor is available in ElementalX App(and you can change it in aroma too I think), so I don't think it is deprecated.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] subasa345:
Sorry :( I mean themes of Nova, look very nice.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Maybe that's it. Part of my clean install routine is to download the selinux app on first boot and set the policy to permissive. I've just gotten into that habit because I float back and forth between different builds on the SBC thread and some have V4A and some don't. So, I just always change it to permissive. I'm trying out inffy builds today, but on my N5 I typically stick with ezio builds.
