default setting is very good for optimizing battery life. Kernel & kernel settings' effect on battery differs from person to person so nobody it will make a big difference for you.

What is cooler colors il Elementalx app? :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] matteventu:
It slighty change the colors to a more "blue" tonality.

I.E a less yellowish screen, and a bit more contrast.

A lot better IMHO.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Electrex:
Does it have an effect on battery or performance?

no

would a red Ferrari go faster than a yellow one?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Wh1t3Rose:
yes of course. What a silly question :P
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Electrex:
well, if it is so good of a feature, then why didn't Google include it in the first place?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Wh1t3Rose:
Because the average user would probably screw up their phone. Not to mention messing with colors requires root
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TrainNanpaMaster:
This is probably been asked many times, but does this kernel support f2fs?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mainicia:
it seem usb fast charge setting in 2.09 didn't work when I'm check in aroma install.

anyone get the same problem?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GorfDroid:
No, but you can flash code blue first and then flash elementalx on top for f2fs support.

What's default selinux mode in this kernel permissive or enforcing???
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] _insayn_:
Am I right to think that more 'thermal throttling' (am using most throttling (stock) instead of recommended) will actually save me a small additional amout of battery over the day?

I am not playing games and I feel no performance loss and I wanna get the most out of my battery before charging.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sherlock5545:
It won't be noticeable at all. When the CPU speed is throttled, it works at lower frequencies for a little bit to cool down, then it goes back up. You don't get more battery life by leaving it at stock. You'd better underclock at 1.5 GHz to save more. Performance will be slightly affected.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] _insayn_:
okay, thank you for the quick response. I will use recommended settings and mb underclock a bit.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] 21plays:
Superb kernel. One thing missing, f2fs support out of the box. Please add, thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tylerdurden83:
Come on, flashing code blue or another kernel that supports it before flashing ex only takes you like 5 seconds, dont be lazy! :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] 21plays:
I'm not and that is what I do, however this is just putting a band aid on it and i think that asking doesn't hurt anyone.

Plus, you should flash a new kernel over a new rom install, the way it is now might cause unforeseen problems.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Flyview:
Hey Ryan, the kernel will save some battery with the default settings in the aroma installer since it uses a different CPU frequencies governor. Newly introduced was the "hotplugging" mode instead of mpdecision to decide the CPU frequency. I believe I've been seeing more battery life out of the new mode, but it's not quite as smooth all the time (i.e. you might see little hiccups). I also slightly underclock to 1.95GHz (available in aroma installer). If that's still not enough, check out my app LeanDroid :) It works the best with rooted phones.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] matteventu:
For the same reason Google doesn't allow you (in the stock ROM and without root and without 3rd party apps) to customize quick-settings, change lockscreen wallpaper (different from homescreen one), use USB OTG with memory devices, and a lot of other things... only God knows why.

Thanks, I solved flashing manually in the CWM the zip downloaded by the app, but with the next update I'll try with the TWRP.

Of course no ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hectormcesar:
EX app

I've been using your kernel since I got my N5, so about a year now. I like the straight forward installation on Aroma. Your kernel works very smooth and today I decided to buy your app. Mainly to show my support, since I'm not too keen on in-deep kernel adjustments. Also one of the main reasons I use your kernel is because I use Display Control (Franco's app) to change the gamma screen. Since you have sometime similar on your app under Graphics, should I go ahead and stop using Display Control and just stick with your app under those settings?? And if so which Load color profile is similar to Vomer??

Cheers,

Hector
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
You can use whichever you want. If you go to the Graphics screen in the EX app, scroll down to the bottom and you will find the color profiles option. Click it and Vomer's profiles are included in the list. You can then click the icon at the right of the setting to apply it every boot. In that case, I would uninstall the other app.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hectormcesar:
Excellent, once again thank you!!

hey when I open synapse on my device it just says no UCI support detected... ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] magnamentis:
then you perhaps don't have ukm installed which is mandatory. i've been using synapse for quite some time on my ONE but cannot recommend it for this kernels as compared to ElementalX app.

I don't think he sounded like a know it all. He told him what he needed to install and then suggested using the kernel manager App by the same Kernel developer which only makes sense. You're the only one coming across as rude.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Wh1t3Rose:
I was talking about [MENTION=2145830]frikakwa[/MENTION]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dechronic:
It does support it out of the box in a sense. Let me explain. The beauty of ElementalX is that it uses the ramdisk of whatever kernel is installed, even an unbootable one. So what this means you just need to flash a kernel with f2fs entries in the ramdisk even if it can't boot the phone. So if you look in a thread called "Nexus 5 f2fs". In it I have a few posts with a dummy stock kernel with f2fs entries in the ramdisk, that you flash first and then flash ElementalX immediately afterward as the dummy stock kernel won't boot as the stock kernel doesn't have f2fs support.

The phone will then boot the partitions via ElementalX kernel as set out by the ramdisk.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Globespy:
what happened between 2.08 and 2.09?

I figured that the quick update from 2.08 was to make (IMO) the best lollipop release yet by flar even better...... But this thing is destroying battery. Only 55 minutes screen time on 2nd charge and 40% left? 2.08 was over 3 hours SOT at about the same remaining battery. Nothing unusual in system panel app to explain battery drain, so no rogue background processes. Exact same usage conditions as 2.08 - I haven't left the house in a few days and always on Wi-Fi.

I'll go back to 2.08 but just wondered if anyone else had seen similar results?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vickyjusme:
maybe a rogue app causing you wake lock. the main goal of 2.09 is to make selinux permissive. try rebooting your device once. of that doesn't solve the issue please post your battery stats from gsam or better battery stats.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Msan2000:
Good, I'm not the only one.. After I installed this time I actually under clocked to 1.5 to see if I could save some more battery, but it was way worse this time for some reason.. usage has not changed and I am not running anything different.. I might try flashing back to 2.08 and see if anything changes..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
The only difference between 2.08 and 2.09 is the advanced color control, which shouldn't affect the battery. It's just like the color control that we had before, but adds saturation, value, hue and contrast knobs.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Globespy:
"Shouldn't"..... But something going on. I think i recall seeing a new option in 2.09 (SeLinux?) that could be the culprit? Id was using the app for that before. I uninstalled the app when i saw your kernel has the option so I'm thinking that's maybe it?Cheers Flar
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
The permissive thing isn't even in the kernel, it's just a script that sets permissive on boot. The only change to the actual kernel is the color control. Maybe it has an effect on battery, I will test. Color control was there before, this just adds a few more options.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] theesotericone:
I'm not seeing any less battery then normal. I've been on 2.09 since about an hour after you dropped it. Same old ElementalX. Fast and stable.

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] i need some light on this. when i was on 2.05, had no problems on basic settings, default ones, with just one step undervolting. It gave me great battery backup with no heating. Since updating to 2.09, phone heats up occasionally and battery drains. No apps were install in this period. I have wakelock detector installed n everything seems normal. Before flashing 2.09, normal temp was 30 to 35 deg. Now its above 35 always. once it goes to 38 and above . Any settings i should change, thermal throttling, etc? thx. If worst case, everything fails, can u revert back to 2.05?thx
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rhamej:
Hey flar2. I've noticed some graphics glitches happening at random on 2.09. Flashed back to .08 and they don't happen. The glitch is the snowy screen top left corner about 1inch by 1inch. Any ideas? If I can help let me know.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sherlock5545:
If you are referring to the strange "dot" that appears on the top left corner every now and then, it's definitely not related to ElementalX. It's probably another of the bugs Lollipop brings. Hopefully it gets fixed with 5.1.

happens to me with Nova launcher. If I hide/unhide apps in the drawer via clicking the tab on top left. When done hiding/unhiding, it will distort.

i think this one does what you want. i have it purchased but currently not installed. if you like i can install and check for you but i think the period of monitoring is tweakable after ones gusto. just let me know, because it's a paid app you might wanna be sure beforehand.

Weird thing happened

I just flashed from 2.09 to 2.10.

Flashing went fine but I get errors about low space! Now my device is slow, some apps crash (won't start) and I get an error about my diskspace which should be more than 250MB.

But I have more than enough space on my device.

I tried wiping cache but that didnt work. Also reflashing or reflashing to older version did not help. I hope someone can help me.

UPDATE: FIXED

How: Updated the kernel again and after that I RE-installed Super-SUupdate.zip through recovery. Then I wiped Dalvik/cache
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] magnamentis:
not a kernel issue since it works on mine and obviously others, otherwise one would have heard of.

so what you can do is start with a reboot, if that does not solve your issue, reflash rom, gapps, depending on your config, the kernel and check if your gapps are up to date, there is a new GP-Services available amongst others. if the problem persists you should produce a last kmsg and/or logcat to give the devs a chance to look into it and find the culprit and if it's solved report back for others to learn and become know it alls hahah... just remember something like that on the last few pages, just kidding here and teasing the guy a bit :) hope it works for you. BTW if you generally could provide a bit more info about your setup like rom etc. it would make things easier, less guessing :)

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dakoellis:
I did some testing on the Dt2W and I personally haven't found any issues with the new sensitivity. It actually doesn't seem much different to me. I typically only use it when it is in my car dock, so I would rather have the entire screen available, but it works pretty much every time still. didn't matter if I was using my thumb or index finger. My taps are at about 120bpm, or the double tap is within a half second or so. Maybe anyone having trouble should try changing the speed with which they are tapping.

On another note, Is there any movement on the ethernet drivers [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]? it would be awesome!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] aragog53:
Depends on ROM, kernel and its settings and Dalvik Moto X patch helps too imo. I personally get more than 35000 with OmniROM, this kernel with 2.5GHz overclock, ElementalX governor and other kernel stuff and the Dalvik patch.

But except showing it around me and seeing my friends rage about their 25000 N5, a good benchmark score doesn't really mean anything, I like this kernel for "laglessness" performance and awesome battery life. =D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
I have to remember the Ethernet drivers next build, I need to make a list

No problem with tap to wake with the latest. Can't tell much of a difference. Now sleep to sleep is a different story. Not sire about the sweep speed and/or area. On the Nexus 7 I have checked the option for shorter sweep. On the 5 it seems like the sweep must be close to the full width of the device? Maybe I'm missing some because of raised bezel on my case.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] boterkaaseneieren:
What's the point of that? I bad that not one device here using the kernel has reached the throttle that kicked in. If you don't oc to much like above 2419 you never need the throttle.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Maxyman:
Hey Flar, if anything just a suggestion. If you're planning to implement the more sensitive DT2W could you please add that to the optional features during kernel install? Just because there seems to be a handful of people who find it okay on v.18. It just saves the hassle of the either or group of people who may find the sensitivity of .18 more than adequate! Just a suggest. Great work as always!! Your kernel is the one that keeps my phone on all day (:
