Small battery monitor bug [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]

( I didn't touch the clock / time settings )
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
There has to be some reason why it doesn't work in your specific case, because it works for me and others.

The app runs a service about 10 seconds after boot completed and it applies the settings. Pretty standard stuff and no reason why it wouldn't work unless something is interfering.

I know, it happens sometimes and I haven't had a chance to figure out why
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] LiamAtkins90:
Haven't been back to this thread in a little while... Just gonna say Aaron your latest 4.0.0 of EX fixes the chrome bug Yes! ?

Now that that tiny bug is fixed, it makes the kernel the best of the best... Thank you.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] FirstEver:
Can you add GPU Overclocking to 650MHz (it works fine on UBER Kernel). Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
According to the adreno profiler tool from Qualcomm, I can put any number there and it still runs at 500MHz tops.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] FirstEver:
Now it runs at 450MHz.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
I was getting my devices mixed up.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
To put the GPU oc thing to rest once and for all, here is my Nexus 5 overclocked to 999MHz and running stable
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Robert-:
Haha,i was sure the OC other kernel has is just fake.

So,we can't OC the GPU on our chipset at all?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] reaper000:
I believe you're right: formatting partitions took a while with the version of TWRP you were on (2.6.3.2) while the latest version (2.6.3.4) uses all four cores to speed it up.

Re: the corruption, I don’t think it's necessarily CM related as a few people here have reported it with non-CM ROMs. Furthermore, are we sure it's the data partition that's being affected, or how the recovery partition (TWRP) is interacting with the data partition?

Personally, I haven't had the password field for TWRP come back, possibly because I have not flashed ElementalX since then, and/or possibly because I overwrote the recovery partition. (Like I said in my post in the TWRP thread, I couldn't flashify recovery while still needing the nonexistent password. Once I got past that, the first thing I did was reflash TWRP.)

In terms of troubleshooting, it would be handy if someone tried using CWM to either try and correct this (using your computer, Android sdk and bootloader) or see if it's reproducible with CWM, as opposed to TWRP. Notice that I am not volunteering, as it would be a pain in the u-no-what (but if you're gonna be bothered to restore a stock image anyway, you might as well give it a shot)

At any rate, I hope this gets sorted out. My gut tells me this may be a TWRP issue, but my gut also consumes a hell of a lot of Pepto Bismol, so what do I know?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
I never have any issues and I don't use that ROM but I like this kernel so I'll try help , I did exactly what u wanted with that ROM u didn't say what gapps so I used pa stock , and it installed just fine no password prompt no issues .
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Grondinm:
Well would you look at that. Doing it like this i do get a password prompt....odd Here is a dmesg of the recovery booting after flashing elemental on a clean flash of SlimKat...

http://pastebin.com/939TWaYd

Not sure if this will help. I do not see anything indicating why this is happening just that the data partition seems to get corrupted and needs to be recovered...investigating further...

edit:could it be this??

I:Zip does not contain SELinux file_contexts file in its root.

from recovery.log...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] highKo:
had the data problem (and password at twrp) some days ago, too. but if i remember right, it appeared after doing a nandroid backup. i guess it wasn't kernel related, at least for me

0.20 made my phone blazing smooth again, must have been the fsync stuff
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Grondinm:
So as a follow up. Flashing like Syk69 says using CWM then flashing TWRP after flashing elemental and booting still results in same issue....it almost point to TWRP. i'm going to try something esle but is anyone else experiencing this issue using Multirom version of TWRP?? I'm about to try using regular TWRP to see what happens...

EDIT: well so far all seems good.....which i was not expecting. going to reboot a few more times
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Syk69:
That's because it happens with any ROM or gapps. I'm just trying to get it to reproduce and what I have noticed its after a dirty flash of the ROM with elemental or already having a ROM set up with stock kernel and then flashing elemental, but boots into system fine its when you reboot back into recovery when the data partition doesn't mount.

Thanks a lot! Appreciate the help to get this resolved and help flar out to eliminate it.

---------- Post added at 07:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:57 PM ----------

I'm using regular version of twrp and someone else mentioned they used cwm and still had issues. So it doesn't matter what recovery to use I think.

I just know from version 0.18 the issue started happening. So whatever flar added to the installer in that version is the culptrit I think.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Cool , but ive done what u discribed at least 5x in last few days all without issue . but good luck :) hope u find your issue
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Grondinm:
So question do you use multirom? i'm almost coming to the conclusion that it's Multirom TWRP that is the issue
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Syk69:
No I don't use multirom. Just regular twrp. So it can't be recovery. As I mentioned some other user same thing happened they were using cwm.

---------- Post added at 07:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:04 PM ----------

It's all good! Thanks for trying! Wonder why it hasn't popped up for you even with doing with what I said which is what I have seen happen.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
what superuser are you using?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Syk69:
Supersu 1.86 but I know its not that I tried already. With another kernel and no data mounting issues. I used to think it was just cm based ROMs it affected but found also aosp like purity and slimkat same thing happens.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gpvecchi:
I had the problem and I don't use multirom. Latest problem appears when using overclock\undervolt. But first time I had it with stock settings. I always were on .4 version on TWRP
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] stumpy352:
I have had this 'corrupt' data partition & password prompt issue also, but only occasionally. If prompted for password, I just press back & reboot system. Then reboot recovery again and all is fine. The data partition is not actually corrupted (proved by the fact that rebooting fixes it & a previous user using adb shell to restore data without formatting ). I think it is more an issue of twrp not recognizing partitions correctly at times. Nothing to do with kernel.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Pero155:
I have the problem, yesterday i had flash 19.1, Now for flash 20 in recovery twrp request password and i don't flash nothing.

I use Purity rom with super su 1.86and twrp 2.6.3.4, how can i resolve??

EDIT: i have reboot and Now all ok....sorry..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Syk69:
I've rebooted into recovery plenty of times and the only time the issue has been present is with elemental kernel since version 0.18. It has happened to users with cwm a completely different recovery. Its not twrp.

---------- Post added at 11:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 PM ----------

It goes away but will come back. The only way it doesn't come back is if you flash back to stock kernel or do a restore where you had another kernel or previous version of elemental 0.18
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] letmedanz:
Wow. Good luck guys.. Am happy I haven't run into any of this... So far.. :what:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Syk69:
This user used clockword mod recovery and still had same issue. Its not the recovery unfortunately.

Lol its ok flar is an excellent programmer I'm sure he will fix it when he can.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DoesntPostAThing:
About the "stuttering" some of us have been getting, I'm 99% sure it's placebo on 020. Unlike on 018 and maybe 019, I'm able to "control" when it happens. By thinking. Sounds strange, but I think we're all imagining the stutters. Stock configurations, only change is cooler colors (because default color is too yellow :P)

Maybe not, parts of the gpu are in a private area of the chip called trustzone.

Hi,

Any updates? I recently upgraded to Lollipop and with my CPU monitor, I can see after N-hours the CPU's lighting up on my Nexus 5.

I'm currently in the middle of trying to figure out which major piece of software is the component. I haven't ruled out or ruled in EX 4.00

Cheers,

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Kapetan:
Suggestions for kernel setup in terms of scheduler max/min freq in terms of battery mngmnt?

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] a0b1c2:
Update: BlissPop ROM + cm sounds.zip + EX 4.00 = No problems. ;)

Shortly I'll add the Xposed Framework (alpha!) to the mix and see if that's my problem. As it's alpha s/w, that may be the issue.

End of my updates on this front ... I wanted to ensure I not leave a possible doubt of my beloved EX! :) :) :)

Cheers,

-pablo
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Dor71:
What is cm sounds.zip?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Miryu:
Im guessing its a flashable zip with cyanogen sounds :). Or something like that
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] a0b1c2:
Correct. A long time ago when I was on SlimKat, I found it didn't have all the CM sounds I liked for my alerts/notifications. I google'd around and found a flashable .zip with them.

With Android 5.1, I found the sounds were a bit anaemic so I flashed the old CM sounds. What's funky is at first the sounds sounded scratchy but after flashing EX everything sounds fine. Strange.

For those interested, I have nearly all my Xposed modules disabled and so far so good. No run away processes. Time will tell ...

Cheers,

Hi, which is the best color profile for Nexus 5? Or at least which one you prefer?

Inviato dal mio Nexus 5 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] magnamentis:
has been discussed not only dozens of time here, but as well very recently, so just use the search function on both, google and xda and btw, there is no best, i like it cooler, others like it warmer, so this is leading nowhere and in the time everyone is spending on discussing this you could just take your device and try one after another, takes you 5 minutes and you'll know YOUR best.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] a0b1c2:
Hi,

As indicated, anything subjective is .. subjective. :) ... the classic example, what's the best ice cream flavor? (oh okay, I know it's French Vanilla with specks of vanilla beans) .. anyway, you get my point.

What I find when changing colors, and this is just me, is to try a new color set for some period of time. If I change too frequently, I just can't tell. It could be because my eyeballs are plain old.

The other consideration is to have different colors for different times of the day. At night you more than likely want warmer colors than during the day.

On my ROM (BlissPop), under Display & lights > LiveDisplay > Color temperature I have my settings as follows:

Day: 6500K (default)

Night: 2300K

I also have Display mode set to Automatic.

Good luck!

I built a kernel for Android M last night, but Android M has problems with root and selinux. I don't like the idea of releasing a kernel that disables selinux by default, but I might anyway if there is demand.

I haven't been following lately, is Chainfire or anyone working on a proper root solution for Android M? Or perhaps Chainfire is waiting for M release to protect the rooting method from being patched before M goes official?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] szucsgf:
I believe this is chainfire's latest word on the matter.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=61048689

There is no official root for M yet. People just flash a custom kernel with selinux disabled and then flash supersu 2.49.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nabukodonosor:
I get a lot of freezes with this latest 4.0 kernel and Resurrection Remix 5.1 rom. 2 in the first 3-4 hours after installing the kernel. I get a lot of different colored dots on the screen and the screen turns off and I can turn it on anymore, and only volume+power helps to reset.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hanschke:
I have got the same problem with my Nexus 5 and dont know why :(
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
I would suggest using a different ROM. Or wiping caches and clean installing the ROM.

There shouldn't be any problems with this kernel, it is very close to stock now. The only things added are features that have been well tested over the past year and a half.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nabukodonosor:
That was full wipe clean installed rom this morning, so...I don't think that's the problem.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
I can tell you with 100% certainty there is nothing wrong on the kernel side. Try a different ROM. And make sure you don't undervolt or anything like that.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] a0b1c2:
Things to try:

Clean wipe + no apps + EX

Different ROM (say BlissROM) + no apps + EX

Different ROM + apps + EX

etc.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lparcshinoda:
Any other way to get support on this problem?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
A user in another thread thought settings were not being applied, and it turned out he was checking too quickly after rebooting the phone, before the boot service had a chance to apply the settings.

My suggestion is got to Settings->Wipe app data, reapply your settings, click apply on boot, then reboot and wait for a couple minutes before checking to see if everything applied.

If they are still not applied, there is something interfering. The way the app applies settings at boot is extremely simple and known to work.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Woody:
Logcats would be extremely helpful to determine when, where and why.

Link in my signature. :highfive:

If need be, you can pull a last_ksmg log in the ElX kernel app under the Tools section.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] magnamentis:
as to the color profile thingy, did you switch your display off and on before concluding that that setting does not stick. what i mean is that even if the setting is applied, it does not show any difference until display off/on once. since i use an extremely cool profile i'm always reminded by the yellowish tint if i forget that and upon re-activation of the display settings are always right. no idea however as to max cpu, i only know that there were false indications in the past. something like showing values that have already been hit more than the max set until it's been used, dunno, just brainstorming a bit because indeed this works and if it doesn't there must be something on your side.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sjknight413:
You have demand for it here! An M kernel from you would be the icing on the cake that is the M developer preview. Already feels like a new phone with it loaded so your kernel on top would take it to new heights.

I make selinux permissive where I can to get viper4android working anyway so that's a non issue for me personally.

I really hope you get the demand you're looking for so you'll consider a release! :)

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IFLP:
Hi,

I cant change the settings in Kernel Auditor APP - CPU freguencies, GPU etc.

Many times I observe the lack od performance, framedrops etc.

I installed aroma installer version with stock throttle settings (the most throttling). ROM: Cataclysm 5.1.1

I think I switched SElinux Mode to permissive in the app

Do a kernel settings file interfere with the KA app?

Maybe version without aroma installer dont write this file and would be better?

What can I do?

Many times it sets max CPU @1,1 GHz ,or 1,4 GHz ...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] t3al:
Maybe ask the KA app developer? ElementalX has it's own app and it works flawless.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IFLP:
Do I have to buy each app for a specific kernel ? This is an issue ROM / kernel related. Flashed twice and still GPU governor is switching to ondemand all the time. What happen in I delete kernel settings file?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] walpurgisnacht30:
Try to change your throttling setting to ElementalX?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IFLP:
I flashed it second time, and performance seem ok for now, but seriously the only app that controls this kernel is EX kernel manager? Is that a monopolist and a conscious move from the dev of this kernel?

Trickster mod and Kernel Adiutor wont change some settings ...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] walpurgisnacht30:
No it's not, but we as loyal users of this kernel always encourage people to buy that app.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IFLP:
Thats wise, but still have no idea wheres the problem, whats missing and what im going wrong. Voltages ok, full control nope - cause eg GPU gov wont change, or is it simply normal ..?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thereal_bigjake:
I bought the app to support the dev but I use Synapse and it works great for me. You need to flash UKM to use Synapse btw.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IFLP:
Ok, so you can switch the GPU governor with permanent effect and im not, so im the chosen one, and you arent :) Thanks for replies.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] silvertrain78:
As one of the few users who had experienced Chrome freezes w/EX 4.0, I'm happy to report that they have since abated, and I'd like to share what is different in the user space that I think might have contributed to eliminating them. For me, it's clear that it wasn't kernel related.

Many of us block ads with Adaway, which works by editing the hosts file. The sites that I could always count on freezing were from nytimes.com, and one thing I noticed is that none of those pages ever completely finished loading (I would often just stop the loading from the overflow menu). In Adaway Preferences, I enabled the Adaway Webserver, which listens "on local IP addresses to answer requests to blocked hostnames."

Ever since doing this, nytimes.com content loads completely (and all pages seem to load faster), and I haven't had a single freeze in 2 days. Glad to be back on board the EX train. Thanks [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]

Please set "simple" GPU governor, leave the app, launch the app again and tell me if its still simple governor of the gpu

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
ElementalX doesn't include simple, because it doesn't work properly on this device. There is another one called simple-ondemand, which I used to include, bit did not on recent versions.

ondemand is the best one to use for this device
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] farahzadfarahzad:
Is this app only works with elementalx kernel ? Is it compatible with code blue and elecroactive as well ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] IFLP:
Ok, i was asking about that from the very begining and noone wanted to to read. Now I understand.

And the performance issues were because of the throttling option I chose, and because the elementalx governor seem to be a bit cobservative but its ok since I seek for battery performance. But this governor is quite a bit different so im not accustomed to this. Or maybe with cataclysm there is such a problem.

When im writing this my keyboard has terrible delays...

Dont get me wrong, im not telling that kernel is bad. I jest have this strange issues
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] magnamentis:
where the heck do you see "simple" at all ?

was just going to reply that you have to check if your own house is in order before blaming others (kernel for example) but there is no simple so simple cannot stick, wondering how you even get simple set if it's not threre? very interesting ?

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Yes, works with both
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] magnamentis:
ok so you answered my question where you see simple but that still does not make simple available in the kernel :) so let's say my question, due to not being prepared for an app to show absent governors, was imperfect because it gave room to that reply, i should simply have stated that simple is not in the kernel, but then would you have believed me or would you have presented the same image?
